Chapter 25: Ning Xiaoman's Diary (7.23 Supplement)
"On Saturday, July 19, 2118, the weather was fine and the mood was calm. β
"I heard them say that today we have come to the real Dragon Triangle, now everyone is busy, Yongkun's seasickness reaction is a little better, and he has already been busy, and now only me and my two sisters have nothing to do, so I will continue to write a diary. β
"This is the twenty-first day of going to sea, except for the week before, I feel that I have gradually liked this magical blue ocean, compared to the crescent moon mountain, it is full of new things, I don't know why their sailors often show fear and uneasiness, even if I heard that the water here is thousands of meters deep, but I don't feel terrible from beginning to end, brother, if you go to sea with us this time, do you feel the same way as me? I'm sure you'll love it too, and this might be the place you've been longing for. β
ββ¦β¦β
Ning Xiaoman has had the habit of writing a diary since the first day she boarded the Lisha, except for going around the deck with Wan Yongkun, she hardly spoke, and spent more time silently admiring the magnificent sea view, whether it was calm or calm, white waves churning, or stormy, it made her feel beautiful.
Now that she had finished her diary for the day, she gently closed the soft pink notebook and silently gazed through the porthole at the sea in front of her, from here she could also get a complete glimpse of the pleasing seaspouts outside the window, she did not know the cause of these conditions, but she sighed at the wonder of nature.
Suddenly, her heart moved, she gently opened the notebook again, slowly tore off a page with a bang, then folded it in half, folded it in half, and carefully cut out a small note an inch wide.
She picked up the pen again, held her cheeks and stared at her eyes for a while, and finally wrote down a few words on this small piece of paper with great seriousness.
"From now on, my brother Bi will set out from the Dragon Triangle and roam the vast blue planet to find his true kingdom, my sister Man. β
She used a unique font, which was somewhat doll-like, but she had figured it out herself, and after writing the Chinese characters, she translated it again in the text of the royal family of cloth and wrote it below the text.
Ning Xiaoman smiled slightly, folded the note in half and folded it in half with a chive-like softness, and then took out a delicate small purse from her arms, which was a handful of hair cut from her brother's head, kept as an eternal memorial, for such a long time, Xiaoman kept it close to her, maybe today, she finally helped her brother find the final habitat.
She gently stuffed the small note into the purse embroidered with the special logo of the cloth royal family, this purse is woven from a special plant of the Crescent Moon Mountain, exuding a strange fragrance, not only can repel insects and mildew, but also can be waterproof and oil-proof, which is left by her sister Sheng; in any way, it is extremely precious, so she once again hid this purse into her personal pocket.
She now needed to find something else on the Riza freighter.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Ning Xiaoman walked out of the cabin and happened to see the busy Wan Yongkun and the three of them just changing shifts, sitting idly on the bridge and chatting.
And from afar, Wan Yongkun saw his slender, quiet and sweet sweetheart.
"Xiaomanβ" He greeted from afar, stood up and walked across the bridge, and walked with her, "We're measuring the currents here, do you want to give it a try?" β
Ning Xiaoman smiled and shook her head: "I'll take a look, how can I pull such a long rope......" Her big eyes spun around, just in time to meet the innocent eyes of Xiao Guoyuan.
Her heart moved, and she gently tugged Wan Yongkun's sleeve, Wan Yongkun glanced back at her, not understanding what she meant.
"I'd like to do the little orchard a favor......" she whispered.
Wan Yongkun chuckled: "Why don't I help you." β
"No, you still have to be busy, don't delay your business. Ning Xiaoman shook her head, "Just let him help." β
Wan Yongkun no longer insisted when he heard this, and said with his head bowed: "That's fine." Little Orchard......" he called out to the little clever ghost who was looking around, and Little Orchard quickly understood, stood up and ran over.
"Sister Man is looking for me?" said the clever little orchard with a grin.
Wan Yongkun touched this guy's little head: "You are the smartest, anyway, you can have me and Fat Sheng here, and your strength can't help much...... Let's go around with your sister Man. β
The little orchard said happily: "Okay, you can see that my hands are almost blistering." β
"Nonsense...... Wan Yongkun scolded with a smile, "It's your turn to exert your strength?"
Ning Xiaoman gently pushed Wan Yongkun: "Go quickly, they are waiting for you, just have a small orchard to help me, it's just a trivial matter." β
Wan Yongkun scratched his head and walked forward as he said: "Okay, call me if you have something." β
Ning Xiaoman nodded, and a sweet feeling welled up in her heart: "Got it...... Just go. β
Xiao Guoyuan looked at them enviously from the side, and said sincerely: "Sister Man, you two are really a good match." β
"What do children understand...... Let's go. Ning Xiaoman also touched the little guy's head lovingly, "You're so smart, can you help me find something on the boat?"
The little orchard wondered, "Looking for something?"
Ning Xiaoman nodded, leaned over and whispered a few words in the ear of the small orchard.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Ning Xiaoman really didn't find the wrong person, and about half an hour later, the excited little orchard knocked on her door and shook a bowling ball-like object at her.
She walked over happily and took the little object, and could not help but let out an exclamation.
"Amazing, where did you find it?" she asked.
Little Orchard grinned and said, "I won't tell you." β
Ning Xiaoman glanced at him, she was really a little ghost, she looked at this bottle of foreign wine with a thick neck, a round belly, and about the height of a forearm, and she was indeed quite satisfied, so she raised the bottle with great interest and looked at the white light in the cabin for a while, the transparent bottle body was dark brown, and she could faintly see that the liquid in the bottle had already dried up.
Xiao Orchard said curiously, "Sister Man, what do you want this for?...... Hey, you don't want to make a drift bottle, it's a great idea......"
Ning Xiaoman glanced at him in surprise, this little hairy child is really not to be underestimated.
"You haven't told me where you found it, so I won't answer your question. She also came to play a little bit and didn't answer the rhetorical question.
Xiao Orchard said helplessly: "It's very simple, I found that the people on the boat like to squint by themselves when they have nothing to do, but they are all low-grade goods, and they must not be to my sister's liking...... So I thought that the old captain must be drinking more upscale than theirs, and sure enough, I guessed that the bottle was found in the dumpster at his door. β
"Little ghost, the head melon seeds are very easy to use. ......" I heard that it was picked out of the trash can, Ning Xiaoman, who loves cleanliness, hurriedly took out a facial tissue from the carton on the table, carefully wiped the extremely satisfied wine bottle, and then took out the small purse from his pocket, opened the cork on the bottle mouth and slowly stuffed the purse in, and the little orchard stared at her movements with big eyes, revealing the excitement that a child should have.
"You can help me throw it into the sea in a while......" Ning Xiaoman pressed the cork back to confirm that it was tight enough, and then said softly, "Don't let others see it, otherwise someone will definitely laugh at us for being naΓ―ve." She instructed cautiously.
Xiao Orchard nodded in understanding, but couldn't help but ask, "What's in here......?"
Ning Xiaoman glared at him.
"Little brat, ask so much what you are doing, and I'll tell you when it's done. β
The little orchard went out happily, Ning Xiaoman opened the porthole, quietly looked at the sea, and after a short time, there was a very slight sound of objects falling into the water in his ears, in a hidden corner that only the two of them knew, the bottle of foreign wine that carried the little secret slowly drifted towards the real and illusory sky with the water waves of the steamer's sailing, getting smaller and smaller, and soon disappeared.
Brother, I hope you can find your own peace here.
Ning Xiaoman muttered silently in her heart. [.]
