Happiness System

Chapter 254: The End of the World Again 33

"Let's have some rice and noodles, and then some braised chicken with abalone, salt and pepper mantis shrimp, and spicy shrimp and crab. You can take care of the rest!"

Qin Xi loves to eat, she is too lazy to cook, but that doesn’t stop her from ordering food!

"That sea bass yesterday was pretty good, isn't there any pickled cabbage? Let's have some pickled fish! And then some braised pork. We can't have all meat dishes, let's have some vegetarian dishes too!"

Qi San, who stayed behind, was the head chef. He didn't hesitate to ask Qin Xi for a lot of things.

He didn't know whether he had a lot of vegetarian vegetables in stock, so it didn't matter even if there was no stock. As long as Qin Xi had some seeds, he could grow some on the spot.

The vegetables grown by the psychics are either slightly bitter or even blander than filtered water. They look good, but the taste is just so-so. Don't have too high expectations.

You have to know that ordinary people can't even afford to eat the green leafy vegetables that taste bad.

Fortunately, Qinxi had everything he ordered.

Not only did she not want to take the things out, but others also thought she was too slow and was in the way.

Qin Xi had no choice but to go back to the container, throw out two buckets of ice to cool down, and then start eating an icy watermelon.

The meal wasn't ready yet, and most of the people who had gone out to sea had returned.

Smelling the delicious food from Canglan Team, the other teams could only drool in envy.

Most of the teams did not bring these space-consuming equipment, and they all brought dry food as usual for this mission.

To be honest, the operation of Canglan team really deserves a beating!

The Qi Rui team wanted to cook together, but Qi San was unwilling to do so. However, after asking Qin Xi, he agreed to give them the kitchen utensils and gas for free.

The meal was just ready, and the three people who had arranged the team's affairs reported on time.

They did not go out to sea again in the afternoon, mainly because they didn't know when Xia Mingyuan would come back.

Their constant temperature space could not preserve the fresh goods, so they simply did not come out in the afternoon and spent some time on shore to process the seafood into dried goods.

They did the same thing for the next few days. Qin Xi distributed the bait to them every day, and then took people to dig shellfish.

Others also fish for half a day every day and then process the catch into dry goods in the afternoon.

The officials couldn't just sit there and wait, and seeing that they had a good harvest and the seafood was handled very well, they followed them into the sea.

As soon as they took action, the others who were still waiting for Xia Mingyuan to come back also went into the sea. However, they had no bait, so they naturally could not imitate the Canglan team's fishing method.

Xia Mingyuan did not come back until the fifth day. Qin Xi did not know what he went to exchange for at the Jinshi base, but his face looked bad the whole time, and it was not known whether they had not reached an agreement.

When he came back, the fishing boat that went out fishing had not returned yet.

Qin Xi went to dig abalone and came back to find Xia Mingyuan standing on the beach staring at the fishing boats in the distance. She walked over to greet him, "Hey, Captain Xia, you're back!"

Xia Mingyuan turned around and nodded to her, "Ms. Qin."

"Well, the sun is still quite bright. They will be back soon. Captain Xia, there is no need to wait here. As long as the fishing team does not leave the deep sea, there will be basically no problems."

Qin Xi looked up at the sun and had to say that this guy was a ruthless guy!

Really can withstand the sun!

"Why didn't they leave the deep sea?"

"Hmm? What?" Qin Xi didn't expect Xia Mingyuan to ask her. She hesitated for a moment before answering honestly, "The deep sea is dangerous. If you don't have any requirements for fish, the harvest in the shallow sea is enough."

"Do you think the deep sea is dangerous?"

"Of course. Although we haven't encountered any large sea beasts, we can't deny their existence!"

Xia Mingyuan said nothing more and continued to stare into the distance.

Qin Xi greeted him and told him to come with Fu Zhuohui for dinner later, then went back.

When she returned to the camp and looked back, Xia Mingyuan was no longer there.

As expected, Fu Zhuohui brought him over during lunch.

A group of men had a couple of drinks, ate, rested for a while, and then went to the meeting.

"Xixi, you will lead the team out to sea starting tomorrow. Yingjie and I will dispatch half of the troops to join the official team to fight against the blackbirds."

"The government has almost finished building the rest of the road, but the birds have returned and the road construction team has suffered heavy casualties."

"Originally, this mission included killing the stork. This time, you should bring back as much seafood and clean water as possible. Even if the road is open in the future, it will probably be difficult to come back to get water and catch stork."

Qi Jingyan handed over the team's affairs to Qin Xi, and left Qi Yi, Qi San and Qin Nan to assist her. Before dawn the next day, they set off with their men and followed the official.

As soon as the main force left, Qin Xi immediately arranged matters and took his men out to sea.

Due to manpower constraints, they are divided into two teams to sail one boat.

The official and other special ability teams are still managed by Sheng Weixin.

Qin Xi didn't know what the content of yesterday's meeting was, but those special ability teams seemed to be getting anxious, and one team even came over shamelessly to buy fishing bait.

Qin Xi doesn’t care, it’s just a transaction, she will sell to anyone who is willing to offer!

The one who came from the Jiang family was Jiang Shiyu's younger brother. This guy acted as if Qin Xi was a third party who had intervened and snatched away his brother-in-law. He kept staring at Qin Xi viciously, secretly trying to trip up the Canglan team.

Seeing other superpower teams coming to Canglan Team to buy fishing bait, he became even more indignant and spoke ill of them, offending several friendly teams.

In the end, except for the Jiang family team, all other teams bought bait.

The Jiang family team was the only one left on the entire sea that needed to sail and trawle. Because they didn't want to get too close to these "traitors", and they learned that it was the Canglan team's idea not to leave the deep sea, the Jiang family team deliberately went against the team and left to go to the deep sea.

The Qi Rui team had already taken on other missions, and most of the people assigned this time were psychics who were not even at the second level.

This time, Qi Jingjun transferred away those in the late first stage, and the remaining personnel were handed over to Qin Xi for overall planning.

Qin Xi had to collect the fish while guarding against the seafood that crawled up, and he also had to find time to guide the low-level psychics.

When she found out that the Jiang family had left the team and went to the deep sea, she was so angry that she wanted to curse!

"No. 2, No. 3, the Jiang family has left the team and gone to the deep sea. Everyone stay alert at all times and pay attention to the movements in the deep sea. If you find anything wrong, return to the ship and go ashore immediately!"

Qin Xi used the walkie-talkie to notify his allies and sent a message to Sheng Weixin.

We assigned people to keep a special eye on the deep sea, and made some arrangements before we could continue our previous work with peace of mind.

Sure enough, in less than an hour, Qin Xi noticed the movement in the deep sea.

At the same time, the people staring at the deep sea also shouted, "Sister Xi, the Jiang family is returning!"

Qin Xi climbed to the top deck and looked around at the observation deck for a while. Her heart was pounding. She immediately took out the intercom and said, "Number two, number three! Return to the port and land immediately!"

After that, she switched to another intercom. "There is movement in the deep sea. There may be a large beast approaching the coast. I suggest you return to the ship and go ashore immediately!"

After saying this, she didn't wait for others to react and immediately ordered people to raise the anchor and return.

Sheng Weixin would naturally not abandon everyone for the Jiang family. The Jiang family is not that powerful!

While notifying everyone to return, he asked people to contact the Jiang family's fishing boat. If they couldn't get through, they should contact the Jiang family!

After arranging matters, he also went up to the lookout tower to investigate.

On the surface, there seemed to be nothing wrong. The Jiang family was returning home, seemingly fast and stable, but in fact, the fishing boat seemed to have been controlled.

Sheng Weixin vaguely saw the giant beast hidden in the sea, and he recorded those scenes without making any noise.

It’s not that we don’t want to save the Jiang family, but there is no way to save them!

Their equipment is just so-so and can't compare with those behemoths.

Not to mention that their powerful psychics have been transferred to the rift to fight monsters.

The most important thing is that the Jiang family cannot afford the price to rescue them!

Qin Xi and his men reacted quickly and the officials were well-trained, so both sides quickly landed.

The team that hesitated and wanted to catch more fish finally reached the shore successfully, but was attacked by marine creatures in the end and almost lost their balance and fell into the water when they landed.

When they were collecting the fishing boat, they clearly felt that the boat was damaged. They would probably have to do some major repairs when they got back, but they didn't dare to say anything and could only pay for their greed.

"sea snake?"

The members of Canglan's team saw the long shadow attacking the fishing boat and felt a little uncertain.

Qin Nan shook his head. "It's a conger eel! It must weigh over a hundred kilograms!"

"what?"

The teammates who escaped from danger just felt like they had lost another delicious dish.

In addition to seeing moray eels, Qin Xi also saw small sharks, whose teeth were even scarier than those in the piranha movies shot in the West!

Perhaps she saw the regret of her foodie teammate, so she took out the mutant seeds, shot out the ice needles, and at the same time, she stimulated the mutant seeds to drag the conger eel back and throw it ashore.

The third-level ability is still too low. This operation directly cleared half of the health bar!

The mutated eels will even attack and eat their own kind, so Qin Xi simply took care of the mutated eels that were attracted by the trace of blood.

Then her blood tank was empty.

"Okay! Call it a day!" Qin Xi put the mutant eel away and said with a smile, "Let's grill one eel for lunch today, and eat the remaining two when Brother Yan and the others come back."

"An eel weighs at least 100 kilograms, which is enough for us to eat! Brothers, wait for me to show you my skills!" Qi San grinned.

The two teams said hello to Sheng Weixin and headed towards the camp. Other teams that were at least as strong as those in the Jiang family also followed.

Only the officials and the team who were afraid of retaliation from the Jiang family were still standing on the dock, watching the situation at sea.

After a full meal, Qin Xi no longer paid attention to whether the Jiang family had returned. After resting for a while, she simply took people to the reef area to dig shellfish.

When they came back after dark, the people who stayed behind said that the Jiang family had lost both the people and the boat, and they also showed everyone the official footage.

"Fortunately, our sister Xi has a sense of crisis and reacts quickly!"

"We have caught some ferocious sea fish before, but their sizes are not on the same level as the conger eels. The authorities said that in addition to the ones chasing us, there are many ferocious beasts lurking in the water. If we react half an hour slower, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape!"
