Chapter 52: The Reappearance of the Energy Source
On the first floor of the yacht, Zheng Xudong found different brands of beer and fruits in the storage room, as well as some vacuum-packed dried fruits, shrimp chips and other snacks. He first chose Budweiser's new product for Liu Yifei - Budweiser clear beer, six blue iron listening beers, and then prepared two dozen German dark beers for himself and Rashid, and found some American grapes, dragon fruit and kiwi fruits, put these fruits in a large plastic fruit blue, and put them in the kitchen sink, then Liu Yifei pushed him away, "Adong, you take the beer first, and then come down to get the fruit, I'll wash these fruits, go." ”
Zheng Xudong heard her say this, "Okay, then I'll be back soon." As he spoke, he put Budweiser beer in a small basket and carried it in his hand, and then walked up to the upper floor with a case of German dark beer between one arm. When he returned to the first floor, Liu Yifei washed the last string of grapes and put them in the fruit basket, handed him the fruit basket, found a small bamboo basket, put dried fruits and shrimp chips and other small foods in it, and followed him to the third-floor leisure area.
By this time, Larande had slowly driven the yacht out of the harbor and headed for the Statue of Liberty in the distance.
The Statue of Liberty (English: Statue Of Liberty), the full name of which is "Statue of Liberty National Monument", officially known as "Liberty Enlightening the World", is located near the Hudson River Estuary on Liberty Island in the harbor of New York, USA. It was built by France in 1876 to commemorate the centenary of the victory of the American Revolutionary War, and the bronze statue was inaugurated on October 28, 1886. Dressed in ancient Greek clothing, Lady Liberty wears a radiant crown with seven pointed rays symbolizing the seven continents. The torch of freedom is held high in the right hand, the Declaration of Independence is held in the left hand, and the broken handcuffs, shackles and chains are held at the feet, symbolizing freedom from tyranny.
Rashid docked the yacht on the slipway of Liberty Island, and after Zheng Xudong paid a $12 ticket per person, the three of them came to the Statue of Liberty, which was 46 meters high, 93 meters plus pedestal, and weighed 225 tons (490,000 pounds), and the Statue of Liberty was cast in metal. The steel bracket inside the statue was designed and made by the architect Ville Bducer and the French engineer Gustave Eiffel, who later built the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The whole bronze statue is made of 120 tons of steel as the skeleton and 80 tons of copper sheets as the skin, which is assembled and fixed on the bracket with 300,000 rivets.
The trio followed the guide up the head of the statue from a spiral staircase inside the statue, which is equivalent to climbing a 12-storey building (due to its height, an elevator was later installed from the base to make it easier for visitors to get up and down). On the pedestal of the granite statue is engraved a well-known poem by the American poetess Emma Lazarus, "The New Giant":
"Let those who are eager to breathe the air of freedom,
And after a long journey, I am exhausted,
Penniless people,
Snuggle up to each other and throw yourself into my arms!
I stand at the golden gate,
Hold high the lamp of freedom. ”
Zheng Xudong's physique is still good, although the tour guide reminded them that in order to facilitate tourists, some rest seats are set up every three spiral stairs for tourists who can't climb to the top in one breath. But they still climbed the viewing platform at the crown of the goddess statue in one go. Halfway through the climb, Zheng Xudong was afraid that Liu Yifei would have to carry her if he couldn't climb up, but Liu Yifei was reluctant to let Zheng Xudong carry it at this time, so he took his hand and climbed it in one go. There are 25 small iron windows around the viewing platform, each of which is about 1 meter high. The three of them looked out through the window, and saw the high-rise buildings on Manhattan Island, known as the "Steel Babylon" in the east, the New York Bay in the south, the endless waves and the shadow of the boats, and the Hudson River in the north. From the crown to the right, you can climb to the base of the torch, which is high on the statue's right arm, and can accommodate 12 people from the window, but was closed after the 9/11 attacks for safety reasons, and did not open to the public again until May 2009. It's just opened, and they just happen to be able to go over and watch it. The pedestal of the Statue of Liberty is a large hall that was designated as an immigration museum by the U.S. federal government in 1972. There is a movie theater that shows films about the life of early immigrants in the United States. The three of them had no interest in watching those old movies and went straight back to the yacht.
As the yacht sailed out of the Hudson Estuary, Rashid pushed the yacht to its maximum speed, two Ferretti turbocharged engines pushed the mid-size yacht to 30 knots (about 54 km/h), and Zheng Xudong and Liu Yifei could feel the waves of New York Bay pushing the yacht up and down even when they sat on the yacht's sofa. Liu Yifei sat next to Zheng Xudong, holding his arm tightly, the sea breeze blew Liu Yifei's hair and kept sweeping his face, making him sneeze a few times, Zheng Xudong took out a light green silk scarf from the space and tied her hair into a ponytail.
Rashid drove the yacht out of New York Bay and drove for more than an hour in the direction of the sea before stopping the yacht.
The three of them sat in the relaxation area on the third floor, with a beer in their hands, "Come, brother, brother and sister, for the fate of us meeting here today, cheers!" Rashid is the oldest here, and he brought a glass first, in fact, everyone drank it directly from the bottle.
Liu Yifei heard him call himself "brother and sister", his little face turned red, and he didn't say anything when he looked at him.
"Big brother, I think this water surface is not bad, I want to swim here for a while, do you want to go together?" asked Zheng Xudong.
"Brother, you swim first, I'll fish on the boat first, there must be someone on this boat, you say yes. "Rashid decided to watch the yacht and fish at the same time.
"Okay then, Yifei, are you going to swim with me or do you want to rest here first?"
"I'll go swimming with you, there's no point in staying here. ”
"Okay, let's go to the room and change clothes. Big brother, you fish here first, and I'll come back to change you later. ”
"Okay, you go play, I'll fish first, try to catch a few more big fish, and we'll eat grilled fish on the boat in the evening." ”
After speaking, Zheng Xudong and Liu Yifei came to the second floor of the yacht together, "Yifei, you go to the master bedroom inside to change clothes, and I will change in this living room." ”
Liu Yifei blushed and walked to the bedroom inside with his swimsuit, and after entering the bedroom, he gently closed the door.
Zheng Xudong changed his clothes quickly, he took off the clothes on his body and put on the newly bought swimming trunks.
Not long after he finished changing, Liu Yifei also finished changing into a swimsuit and walked out of the bedroom inside, only to see her long hair draped over her shoulders, two thin collarbones exposed under her neck, wearing bikini underwear with yellow flowers on a red background, two cute little buns on her chest, a flat and white lower abdomen with an obvious vest line, and a cute little panty tied with a bow on the right side underneath. The small panties could not cover her plump and straight buttocks, a pair of slender snow-white thighs stood cross-front and back, wearing a pair of slippers in her feet, and Ruyu's toes were painted with pale red nail polish.
Seeing Liu Yifei standing in front of him in a sexy swimsuit, Zheng Xudong felt a nameless heat rise in his lower abdomen, and this heat scurried in his lower abdomen. The little brother also gradually raised his head.
Liu Yifei came out after changing into a swimsuit in the bedroom, looking at the big boy in front of her looking at her hotly, she felt both happy and a little shy, she felt that her delicate body could still charm this big boy. Look at his naked upper body again, with beautiful lines, not the accumulation of a group of muscles like that of Mr. Bodybuilder, but a very well-proportioned figure, bulging pectoralis major muscles, and six abdominal muscles neatly placed on the lower abdomen are full of strength, pure black boxer swim trunks can't wrap his fish line, the two straight long leg muscles supporting the body are pouncing, and the pile of meat in the legs makes her heart flutter like a deer, and she feels that her face is hot now. At this time, the pile of flesh in his crotch was expanding, supporting a large piece of swim trunks, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind, "How can I put such a big thing there! With a red face, he said to Zheng Xudong, "Hooligan!" and then took the lead out of the room on the second floor.
Zheng Xudong knows what he is like now, and there is no way, this is a normal physiological reaction, if there is no such reaction, it is worrying. took out a large bath towel from the wardrobe in the living room and walked out behind Liu Yifei.
When he came to the platform behind the yacht on the first floor, he saw that Liu Yifei was already standing there and began to prepare for activities, stretching his body. came to her side and said to her, "I'll go down first to test the water temperature, no problem, I'll greet you, you come down again!" looked at her and nodded, then put the big white bath towel in her hand over her body, simply did two chest expansion exercises, kicked her legs twice, and then jumped high on the deck and jumped into the water, "Plop!"
He was taught to swim by his mother, who told him that her classmates called her a dolphin in the pool, and that she was a good swimmer and a fast swimmer. So he learned all the swimming positions, frogs, butterflies, back, self, and so on. This is the first time he has swam in the water after combining with Zhihe Xiaoqiang, in the water, he seems to have returned to his mother's arms, warm, cordial, there is an indescribable feeling, he doesn't know how far he has swam out in the water, but he just feels that there is always a stream of oxygen flowing in his lungs, he didn't dare to stay in the water for too long, for fear that Liu Yifei would be worried, and surfaced from the water.
Just as he thought, when he dived into the water, Liu Yifei looked at the water on the boat and there was no shadow of him on the water, at first it was nothing, thinking that he had good skills and large lung capacity, but after a long time, he began to worry a little, "He won't have an accident, it won't be entangled in aquatic weeds, won't it be that his legs are cramping in the water?" The longer the time, the more unlucky thoughts popped up in her mind, she couldn't wait any longer, and threw the bath towel he draped on her body on the sofa next to her, ready to go into the water to see the situation, and at this moment she saw a small black dot beckoning to her two hundred meters away from her, and she could faintly hear his shout, "Come down, the water temperature is just right!"
When she saw him surface, she didn't know why, tears were rolling in her eyes, whether she was happy or scared, she couldn't tell herself. Finally, after two more movements, he also jumped into the water and swam towards him in the distance.
At this time, Zheng Xudong, who was in the water, suddenly heard the voice of Zhihe Xiaoqiang coldly in his mind, "Discover a new energy source!"
