Scientific Travel

The higher a person's position, the more they tend to believe only in themselves.

Cui Wuji witnessed food appear out of thin air on the table and was now 80% convinced.

The other two points are uncertain, whether she is more accurate or the old national advisor is more accurate.

Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise. There might be a god who is good at conjuring things, but that doesn't necessarily mean he can predict fate.

Deng Yin left after delivering the food; she hadn't eaten yet either.

Deng Yin's dinner was much more lavish than what these people ate. Zhao Shanglan only said she wanted to eat the same things as them. The dishes Deng Yin brought were indeed on their table, but in addition to those, there was also something made by Li Pingle.

Even so, the group was quite satisfied with their meal.

The canned food that Deng Yin brought was something Wang Xi, who was used to eating Li Pingle's cooking, couldn't forget. It contained a lot of seasonings, and the manufacturer had done research before production to ensure that it suited the tastes of most people.

Although it contains many seasonings, it has no harmful ingredients at all.

The most scarce resource on Heze Star is living people. Most jobs are done by robots, and even those who do nothing can survive on government welfare.

Therefore, no matter what it is, if any harmful ingredients are added, the merchant will face imprisonment of more than 20 years or even the death penalty.

Although they were all eating at the same table, they were eating different things.

Two guards ate eggs, while the other two ate canned food. Zhao Shanglan could handle spicy food, so she ate stir-fried spicy chicken, while Cui Wuji ate stewed beef with potatoes.

It would be extremely disrespectful to dine at the same table as the emperor, let alone share a dish with him.

There was a portion of watermelon on the plate, and each guard took a slice back to their room to eat.

Originally, Cui Wuji wasn't particularly interested in watermelons. While they might be rare for others, they were quite common for him. However, seeing that the watermelon had no seeds and smelled better than the ones he had eaten before, he took a bite anyway.

After taking that bite, he truly felt like he was living like an immortal.

It was so sweet that the heat in the room seemed to be dispelled by this bite of watermelon. Unlike other watermelons I've eaten before, I didn't have to spit out the seeds, which was quite unrefined.

Seeing that he had finished a slice of watermelon so quickly, Zhao Shanglan also took a bite.

The stir-fried spicy chicken was very spicy, and coupled with the already high temperature, she was drenched in sweat by the end of the meal. Now, suddenly eating something so juicy and cold, she felt a chill spreading from her core outwards.

The two ate one piece after another, and since they had already eaten quite a bit of food, their bellies were now completely round.

The body says it can't, but the mouth keeps saying it can still eat.

In the end, health was the deciding factor. Apart from giving one piece to each of the two guards, the remaining two were split equally.

I originally thought that watermelon wouldn't taste as good if it wasn't cold, but it turned out to be almost completely unaffected.

The watermelon didn't rise with the temperature; instead, it stayed at a temperature slightly cooler than mouth temperature.

Zhao Shanglan couldn't resist and ate another piece of watermelon before she had even finished digesting it.

She was given five pieces in total, and she ate another piece of the other four pieces every half hour on average.

It wasn't that she couldn't resist the temptation; it was just that the watermelon was emitting a wonderful aroma all the time.

The fact that she has been able to endure this long is a testament to her great endurance.

No, I must buy a few more watermelons from her before I go back!

The idea changed every day, and the fruit Deng Yin provided the next day was grapes.

Grapes are not a very juicy fruit, unlike watermelons which are very filling. The two guards each received one grape, just like yesterday, while the rest went into the stomachs of Zhao Shanglan and Cui Wuji.

Strawberries on the third day, oranges on the fourth day, and bananas on the fifth day were all distributed in the same way, and Cui Wuji's original two concerns were completely dispelled.

People tend to admire things that are beyond their comprehension.

The old imperial advisor's ability to predict the future is within our understanding, while Deng Yin's fruit is beyond our understanding.

Eight days passed in the blink of an eye. Although Cui Wuji was still looking forward to tomorrow's fruit, it was time to return to the palace.

The memorials to the emperor must have piled up into a small mountain by now. A country can be without a ruler for a day, but it cannot be without a ruler for half a month.

The night before he left, Cui Wuji took the initiative to talk to Deng Yin.

How can you talk without something to accompany your conversation? Deng Yin laid out a table full of grapes, strawberries, dried meat, oranges, and candied fruit. Zhao Shanglan's eyes widened at the sight. If the two of them weren't having a one-on-one conversation, she would have liked to sit and eat there.

She'd even be willing to plug her ears if she had to take it a step further!

Cui Wuji didn't give her another chance to back down. He ate a grape in front of her and ordered his men to close the door.

He came here for two reasons: one was to determine whether Deng Yin was truly a god or merely faking it; the other was to inquire about a way to avert the natural disaster.

The first one has already been confirmed; she's not a charlatan. Now, only the second one remains.

"I don't know." Deng Yin wasn't unwilling to answer; she genuinely didn't know.

Their natural disasters are caused by excessive environmental destruction, but this place doesn't look like the environment is too bad.

She had thought about this question when she first arrived, and finally attributed it to her genes.

It is precisely because of these inherently troubled worlds that the system has places where the host can complete tasks.

Without such a place, the host cannot complete the task. If the host cannot complete the task, the system will lack the energy to sustain its survival.

Ultimately, this world exists to sustain the system.

But I definitely couldn't say this to Cui Wuji, so I could only say I didn't know.

Cui Wuji was somewhat disappointed. The method proposed by the old national advisor, who was a human, was useless, and Deng Yin, who was a god, could not come up with a solution.

Is this country destined to be destroyed in his hands?

"Then why do you say the old Grand Preceptor's methods are useless?" Cui Wuji said, "Isn't it because you know the real cause that you say that?"

"No, that's not it." Deng Yin only said that to protect Wang Xi. She doesn't know how to tell fortunes, so how would she know the cause?

This system is useless. Other people's systems know this information and even proactively help the host solve problems. But the system she's bound to is completely useless.

Deng Yin didn't say these words aloud; he only thought them in his heart. But it was almost the same as saying them aloud.

Everyone can hear it when it's spoken aloud, but in one's mind, only the system can hear it.
