Scientific Travel

Chapter 274

This was the first time everyone had celebrated the Lunar New Year together; they all came from different places.

Wang Moyu comes from Cha Nian City.

Li Pingle comes from Shanniao Kongdang City.

Wang Xi comes from Xiye City.

Liu Ding comes from the Ten Rebellious Cities.

Deng Yin came from Hezi Star.

Dog Egg comes from the Third Bureau.

Every place has its own customs. When people gather together, they not only showcase their own customs but also try to accept the customs of others.

Countless differences converged to form the New Year within the house.

.......

Firecrackers are a must during the Chinese New Year, and Deng Yin bought a lot of them in Shi Ni City.

It's windy now, especially at night. Setting off firecrackers could easily cause a fire, and you might even blow yourself up.

Deng Yin simply put everything in the boat into his spatial storage and set off firecrackers inside the boat.

The entire hull is made of cypress metal sheets, so no matter how many firecrackers explode, they won't leave any marks.

The reason for blowing it up inside the ship instead of in the basement was because the ship was well-ventilated.

There's only one ventilation opening in the basement, located in the kitchen. It will take at least two or three days for the odor to dissipate completely.

The customs of the people were largely those of Xiye City, where the custom was to set off a string of firecrackers before each meal.

If you really set them off in the basement, the smell from the previous wave of fireworks won't even have time to dissipate before the next wave goes off.

After Wang Xi blew holes in both pieces of clothing, Wang Moyu deprived her of the right to set off firecrackers.

Wang Xi looked aggrieved and tried to bargain, saying, "Then I won't wear new clothes, I'll just wear ripped clothes to set off firecrackers, okay?"

“That’s possible…” Wang Moyu changed the subject: “Then you can’t eat ice cream until the New Year is over.”

"All right........"

She can't eat it openly, but she can eat it secretly.

She would take a bite whenever Gou Dan ate.

Just one bite; eating too much might cause a stomachache, and Wang Moyu might find out then.

If she wasn't caught, then she didn't steal any food!

It's already February before the New Year is even over.

New Year, new luck! Deng Yin is drawing lots.

Oops.

Looks like I'm in good luck this year, I drew a Wind Beast.

You can choose whether you want a male or a female. Deng Yin wanted a female one from the previous draw, but this one is for males.

Hopefully, by this time next year, these two Wind Beasts will have produced more Wind Beast babies than she can eat.

Dog Egg said that this thing lays piglets like pigs, producing many, and the survival rate is high.

The only downside is that these animals are very active, which makes them lean and they don't get fat like pigs.

Previously, only one Wofeng Beast lived there, so the territory was small and it didn't matter. But soon a group of Wofeng Beasts would move in, so Deng Yin simply went all out and expanded the Wofeng Beasts' territory by 20 times.

The Wofeng Beast runs very fast, averaging more than 20 kilometers a day, otherwise it is prone to depression.

The Wofeng Beast Enclosure is not circular, but rectangular; it's more like a racetrack than a circle.

The Wofeng Beast is fast, and Deng Yin is afraid that the round shape will cause it to crash into the fence while running.

.........

The New Year had just passed when Chi Lin arrived with a group of people.

Those people were all from the military camp. This time, because Chi Lin was going to send a lot of money, Mei Shengke carefully selected a group of people to prevent any mistakes.

For such an important occasion as New Year's greetings, Mei Shengke naturally brought Wei Wujiang along.

In order to build a good relationship with Deng Yin, Cui Wuji also came to pay his respects for the New Year.

These groups of people all arrived after the New Year, so naturally they all gathered together.

What Deng Yin didn't know was that, besides them, Gao Ruizhe had also come...

He just watched the crowd come and go from a distance, without getting close.

He came alone this time; Feifei was not with him.

The wind made his clothes flutter, his long hair flowed behind him, and his cane was firmly planted in the ground.

Gao Ruizhe seemed to have lost some weight, and despite having a cane, his upper body was still swaying in the wind.

For every step he took along the way, there was a hole in the ground made by his cane.
