Chapter 696: Amusement
The moonlight fell from the treetops, and the breeze came slowly, not cold, but a little warm.
Yang Yuying was up and down in her dream, and on the second day, she didn't wake up when it was dawn.
Hugh Ke opened his eyes as soon as he arrived, but he waited left and right, and couldn't wait for the deadly serial calls of these days, although he looked forward to sleeping lazily every day, but he really didn't call him now, let him go to sleep, he didn't feel at ease.
After tossing and turning for a long time, I had no choice but to get up, and after washing, I stood at the back window of Yang Yuying.
Yang Yuying was woken up in a daze: "...... Why? β
"So you're really still sleeping."
Hugh muttered, "I thought you were holding back some big move, preparing to give me a nice wake-up ceremony in the early morning." β
Yang Yuying: "...... Do you have delusions of victimization? β
Hugh could hit his head against the wall, very frantic: "Who is to blame, tell me who is to blame for this!" β
If it weren't for Yang Yuying's changing tricks every day before dawn to get him up and work, and he wouldn't be able to get up and work every time, he wouldn't have been able to develop this kind of problem - it was rare that he wasn't tossed in the morning, but he wasn't used to it.
When he said this, Hugh Ke also felt a little embarrassed.
"Why did you get up so late today, did you go as a thief last night?"
Yang Yuying blinked, remembering those things last night, she couldn't help but feel a little out of the world, and only said after a while: "Well, last night, a beautiful insect came to talk to me. β
ββ¦β¦β
Hugh, "That sounds a bit ...... It's scary. β
Yang Yuying sighed, "What's even more terrifying is that chatting and chatting put me to sleep." β
Hugh: "......"
If this word spreads to the star network, it may become one of the best jokes of the year, no, one of the horror stories, maybe many young people dare not sleep alone when they sleep at night.
Hey, so maybe some of the girls who are worried about their liking will like such stories for the young men who are always close to themselves?
Outside is quieting down.
Yang Yuying closed her eyes and wanted to sleep for a while, but she only lay down for a few minutes, rolled on the bed twice, and got up and dressed silently.
Today, Edward and the others are leaving Moonlight Island to return, and she has worked hard for a long time, and this last tremor still has to be done.
Ms. Yang is not clear about whether these indigenous people can play a role in a possible crisis. But she still thinks that this place is the home of people, and it definitely doesn't hurt to have a good relationship with these people.
Hurrying out the door, she instinctively looked around, looking for Miss Bug's lair, but found nothing.
"How's the research on that unknown element going?"
Hugh Ke frowned: "Don't rush, we don't have a high-level laboratory, all kinds of equipment are scarce, besides, Alice is already very busy." β
When leaving the base, Yang Yuying's layered defense plan was aimed at the entire polar ice planet, and it would take a lot of time and energy to make the weapons needed.
Later, when she found the hive, Yang Yuying changed her plan several times.
Alice, his intelligent brain, worked overtime with countless intelligent beings, and now she is so busy that she doesn't even have time to shoot Yang Yuying's rainbow fart.
Now they are still asking for an investigation report on unknown elements immediately, how can it be so easy?
"Back then, the Federation Fleet put forward a proposal to increase the number of black holes and increase the construction of shipping routes, and my grandmother voted against it, I really wanted to go back to the past and slap my naΓ―ve self to death at that time."
If there were a few more black holes, more safe routes, and now that the Federation fleet had arrived, where would he have to be so scared like now?
Unfortunately, many people in the Chaos Zone were particularly unsupportive of the plan to increase the black hole.
At one point, the people of X were very wary of such plans.
After all, really, the Federation fleet and their pioneer regiments, who are both good and evil, and are not very interested in federal laws, have always been in a state of hostility.
Yang Yuying took a deep breath: "I suddenly had a particularly bad premonition. β
Involuntarily, she searched for Miss Bug's traces again, but still found nothing.
"Since I saw the bug, my suicide note has been deleted more than a dozen times, and I haven't written so many words in my life, hey, at this time, who can have any good premonition?"
Yang Yuying frowned lightly and muttered to herself: "It is said that I have memorized Miss Bug's anger, even if she can hide the detection of scientific and technological means, she should not leave no trace at all." β
She went to see Miss Bug every day, not just to tell her stories, find out the news and appease her, in fact, in addition to not really dissecting the Miss Bug, Yang Yuying's aura was eager to analyze her from head to toe.
Under the aura emitted by the unknown substance, it is difficult to detect the breath of the Zerg by various means of exploration, but Yang Yuying sat next to Miss Bug, but she deeply felt that the surrounding environment had a strong sense of rejection towards her.
Flowers and trees, and even mountains and rivers will freeze when they encounter it.
The disgust of mountains and rivers, Yang Yuying is also the first time to meet it, I don't know what kind of state of mind this special, humanoid zerg of Miss Bug will be when she lives in an environment that is feared and disgusted by heaven and earth every day?
"That's not good."
At this time, Archduke Edward's fleet was ready, and Archduke Edward's greetings with everyone were over, and he boarded the ship smoothly.
The fleet departed from the dock and entered the sea, and the people on Moonlight Island also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Whew!"
Entertaining nobles is such a thing, who receives who knows, the benefits are there, but it is really tiring. No matter how good the temperament of the nobles, when they get along, they will inevitably bow down and be small!
Edward, however, felt that he had gained a lot from Moonlight Island, and as soon as he entered the cabin, he immediately went to the studio, immersed himself in painting, and did not know day and night for a while.
The people around him were used to him in this state and didn't care.
Day after day, the vast sea, vast and magnificent, only one point, there is nothing but water, this scenery looks very good for one day, two days beautiful, three, four, five or six days down, even the occasional passing waterfowl, everyone can talk for seven or eight hours.
"It's still the Grand Duke at leisure."
The butlers, attendants, man, and maid were all bored after eating the fish of the sea for countless days.
Just when several people were about to get bored and wanted to drink heavily, they saw countless ships connected not far away, and various flags fluttering.
The housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward to look at it and said with a smile: "It's the people from the Hansen Chamber of Commerce who are holding a boat party." β
After just a few words, the banner of 'Welcome to the Boat Party' was played on the opposite side.
The housekeeper looked back at his Grand Duke's studio, didn't even ask, and smiled directly: "Let's go to the event." β
The boat burst into cheers.
The ocean occupies most of the area on the polar ice planet, and the land is not connected, and the main mode of transportation for the citizens of the Yonglan Empire is the ship, and there are even many people who live on the ship all year round, drifting on the sea all day long, and their home is the ocean.
It is precisely because most people live on the vast ocean that going to sea is a common thing.
Whenever there are many boats that meet on some small islands, the crowd will have a lively party, because such a party is held on the ship, commonly known as the boat party.
Archduke Edward will definitely participate in these activities whenever he encounters them.
The housekeeper just knew the temper of his master, so he immediately agreed.
In a short time, the fleet naturally moved closer to each other and docked with all the ships that were going to participate in the party.
As soon as the connecting bridge was built, the first-class stewards of each fleet walked to the side of the ship to say hello.
Today's ship meeting is very lively, there are as many as fourteen, two of which are nobles from the imperial capital, and one is not from the imperial capital, but the identity is also extraordinary, it is the Earl of Heman of Beiling, among all the counts of Yonglan, his power may not be the largest, but in terms of money, he is richer than the other counts combined.
Before both kings ascended to the throne, they both had the experience of borrowing money from Earl Seaman.
You can see how rich it is.
All the fleets in front of him were dressed up, and the middle two fleets were now singing and dancing gracefully, and the steward Ammon admired it for a while, and then led the servants to decorate their own ships with great spirits.
In terms of artistic accomplishment, his master is the best in the imperial capital, and he must not lose to others in this regard.
When night fell, the ship was brightly lit, some people sang and danced, some people met to fight swords, chess, and a ship full of all kinds of wine, and many people were wandering, and even Edward, who had not been in the studio for several days, was led out to have fun with the people.
"Edward!"
Edward was immersed in the beautiful song and dance, when he heard someone call out to him, and when he looked up, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Sea-Man? β
The sound was out, and he had the urge to run away.
Of course, it is impossible to escape, and it is a child of the royal family, so it would be too embarrassing to run.
Count Seaman walked slowly to Edward's side, put his arm around his shoulder, and laughed very affectionately: "Hahahaha, I didn't expect to meet my good brother, come on, brother, let's go drink!" β
For a moment, all the servants around Edward changed color in shock.
On the opposite boat, there were also a few old guys standing on the side of the boat and exhaling softly, taking a handkerchief and desperately wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads.
Edward stumbled, "Okay, drink." β
Although ten million are unwilling, it is absolutely impossible to refuse him.
When night fell, the lights on the ship were turned on, and the figures of countless beautiful young ladies under the lights were even more delicate and lovely.
Edward's eyes fell on the girl who was dancing on the high platform, the girl's puffy skirt sequins flickered, lining her waist more slender, and the dance posture may be a little immature, but it is very good at promoting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, which is quite interesting.
He was immersed in the music for a while, and many beautiful pictures came to his mind.
As a good writer, Edward's greatest ability is to turn everything he thinks and feels into paintings, he is very sensitive to beauty, and many images in his mind will stay for a long, long time, and once they appear, they will not be forgotten.
"Tsk, that's it? I also said that your young lady here is prettier than the one in the north, and that's it? Is the face so long, donkey face? The waist is as thin as a dead branch, and the dead tree has become fine? And the clothes, like green toads, what kind of taste! β
Edward had eyes that could appreciate beauty, and he also had ears that were almost over-the-ear.
In an instant, the face of a donkey, the toad on the waist of a dead tree, stuck to his mind and unable to get rid of it.
Edward: "......"
"Hey, there's still one in a group of vulgar fans who can barely be counted."
Seaman poured a sip of wine and said with a smile, "Although my hair is not the blonde I like, and my facial features are too mediocre, I have a good figure and a good temperament, so don't be too picky when you go out." β
He leaned forward, smiling, and his voice was deliberately very rich: "Miss, this friend next to me thinks that among all the dancers, you are one of the more outstanding, the night is long, and you are bored, why don't you come and have a drink with us, okay?" β
As he spoke, Count Seaman turned his fingertips slightly, and the shining necklace shone brightly, "Play with us, and I'll give you this." β
Edward:?!!
Yu Yingjun?
Archduke Edward followed Seaman's voice and looked at the woman with eyebrows and eyes under the light, it was clearly Yu Yingjun, and the person standing at the stern of the boat not far away was the Knight Hugh.
Yu Yingjun was dressed in snow-white robes at this time, and there was no luxurious decoration on his head, and the ship was clearly the Rose on which the sea dancer was riding.
There were also several dancers in pink dresses standing beside Yu Yingjun, who were bowing their heads and talking.
He was stunned on the spot, opened his mouth, and was speechless for a while, when he saw Yu Yingjun laughing, Lianbu crossed the connecting bridge, walked to them and sat down: "Okay, I still like to drink." β
Edward: "......"
Seaman: "Hahahaha, okay, what a generous young lady. β
As he spoke, he poured a row of twelve glasses of various wines, from spirits, such as Ice and Snow, to red wines, such as St. George XVI.
It's all good wine.
"Drink!"
Seaman drank a drink, turned his body slightly sideways, sniffed lightly, and then picked up another glass of wine and handed it to Yang Yuying's lips.
Edward instinctively moved to the side, his gaze tilted slightly, only to see the Knight Hugh slowly turn his head, his sky-blue eyes as cold as snowy mountains.
Seaman also seemed to feel something, his hand shook, the wine glass fell to the ground, he couldn't help but be surprised, turned his head and looked around: "Why is it so cold?" β
Yang Yuying smiled: "Then you can drink two more glasses of wine to warm your body." β
"That's right."
Count Seaman changed his posture and looked Yang Yuying up and down, "If Miss is willing to feed me, it doesn't matter how much you drink." β
Edward didn't want to talk anymore, but maybe Count Seaman could get away with his face?
As a Yonglan nobleman, Seaman's bloodline has been transformed over several generations, almost perfect, he has the favorite blonde hair of Yonglan people, his eyes are brown, but very bright, he is tall and slender, his skin is snow-white, and in terms of beauty, he ranks first among all young nobles.
He was only twenty-seven years old.
Maybe Yu Yingjun likes his looks like this and sees his frivolity as amusement?
