“Lu Qi, remember to behave well.”
“Don’t be too arrogant, you still have to protect yourself.”
“Have a good rest, recharge your batteries, and watch other people’s live broadcasts. You can’t go wrong with more information.”
…
“Yes, I know.”
After sending the big shots away one by one, Lu Qi walked over to a low-key car with a military license plate that was parked on the side of the road, opening the door and slipping in.
The interior of the car was very spacious, the man in the driver’s seat had a straight, upright posture, and Lu-yuanshuai had closed his eyes and was resting in the back seat.
This man, who was in charge of the Daqin military department, had half-white hair, a build similar to Lu Qi’s, and a short stubble on his chin.
Hearing the sound of the car door opening and closing, he did not open his eyes. His tone carrying a hint of majesty, he instructed, “Sit in the back.”
The driver squinted his eyes and glanced carefully at his young master, only to see that he had pursed his lips, seemingly helpless.
Lu Qi sat next to Lu-yuanshuai in the back seat, and the car started slowly and began driving in a certain direction.
Lu-yuanshuai opened his eyes and asked, “Don’t you have anything to say to yeye?”
Lu Qi hesitated, and finally, “… How has yeye been recently?”
“I’m doing very well!” Lu-yuanshuai glared angrily, and when he saw his cold expression, he became furious.
“Does the name Shen Meiren sound nice?”
Lu Qi: ?
“Ancient tianshi had a rule that they couldn’t reveal their real names. You didn’t know that, did you?”
Lu Qi: …
Seeing the other party’s expression change, he snorted with satisfaction.
The car drove into a heavily guarded community and stopped by a small villa. After saying goodbye to Lu-yuanshuai, who stayed in the car, Lu Qi got out and went back to his room.
The servant who had received the message of his approach beforehand had fully charged his terminal.
Lu Qi turned it on, and after replying to various messages from his teammates, he focused on a prominent app logo on the screen.
His fingertips paused on the app for a moment, then stopped, and the screen flickered. Lu Qi calmly navigated through a series of screens until he saw the live broadcast room belonging to “Alluring Beauty”; until he saw Shen Meiren’s face.
【Ahhhh, Beauty here I come, please kiss me 】
【 Today’s Beauty is still in his prime, the screen is dirty, tiantian. 】
【 Randomly guessing that Beauty will definitely go find God 7 within a minute, any sisters want to bet? 】
【 23333 I’m guessing 30 seconds! 】

After repeated soaking by the sea water, the deck under their feet had been covered with a thick layer of rust, and some fish scales that had not been cleaned away were stuck to the edge of the deck, exuding a stale fishy smell.
Chen Ge and Le Songlin, who had teamed up with Shen Qingcheng to enter the copy, walked up to him,. Le Songlin commented, “A very conventional copy, with unknown difficulty, two ways to pass the level, and a time limit of 20 days.”
At that moment, a wave hit, and the fishing boat shook violently.
On the boat, Shen Qingcheng paled, and quickly grabbed the person beside him to stabilize his body.
After standing firm, he looked at Chen Ge, whose arm he was holding, then let go of his hand and sighed heavily.
Scrawny arms and legs.
Seeing his ugly expression, Chen Ge worried: “Shen-ge, you don’t get seasick, do you?”
Shen Qingcheng looked up at him feebly, “Ah.”
Chen Ge hurriedly supported him and asked nervously, “What’s the level? Is it mild, moderate, or severe?”
Shen Qingcheng: “Unfortunately, it’s severe, it’s so bad I feel kind of dizzy even when I’m lying down.”
After hearing that, Le Songlin was also a little worried. Duizhang told him to take good care of Shen Meiren. How could he get him seasickness medicine while they were floating on the sea?
There were dark clouds overhead, the sea breeze was blowing stronger and stronger, and a heavy rain was about to fall.
The players stood on the deck for a while and didn’t see any NPCs. Some players who knew how to read the weather said it was going to rain soon, so they went inside. .
In the hall, a man in rubbery black waterproof pants was sitting at the dining table with a frown, sighing and wiping his face.
The man was not surprised at all as he saw them coming in, and said in a gloomy tone: “The captain said that the wind and waves last night damaged the two engines on the boat, and now it’s floating in the sea. We can only wait a few days for the the wind to bring us ashore.”
A quick-witted player asked: “There are no spare engines?”
“Of the two I mentioned, the spare engine was naturally included,” the man explained with a strange expression, and then said, “There is not much food on board, and there are no fish in this area. We can all only be aggrieved for a few days.”
Hearing this, the players already understood that their current identities were those of employees on a fishing boat.
Seeing that the NPC hadn’t revealed any useful information, Le Songlin took the initiative to ask: “Is there anything we need to pay attention to? Can’t we contact the people on the shore for help?”
The man’s face changed suddenly.
Seeing that there was an opening, Le Songlin asked, “What about the other crew members? Where’s the captain?”
“Why are you asking so many questions! Captain and the others are of course resting in their rooms,” the man interrupted loudly, glancing down as he spoke.
Everyone quieted down, and then he clutched at his throat and lowered his voice, “I suppose you can guess even if I don’t tell you. Didn’t I just say that there are no fish in this area? The captain has guessed that we were probably blown to the sea of the God of Death by the wind.”
The sea of the God of Death, as the name suggested, was the territory ruled by the God of Death, and all those who came there could only leave their lives there.
With an unfathomable expression, he said, “In short, you should stay in your rooms as much as possible and don’t go out if you don’t need to, especially at night!”
After explaining this information, the man limped away, leaving two rows of barefoot footprints under his waterproof pant-clad feet.
Le Songlin immediately began to follow him. Chen Ge subconsciously prepared to go along with him, then realized that he was still supporting Shen Qingcheng and stopped.
Shen Qingcheng waved his hand, “It’s okay, you can go.”
Chen Ge confirmed, “Is it really okay?”
“Why don’t you stop dawdling and see if it’s really okay?” Shen Qingcheng asked with a smile.
Chen Ge immediately left knowingly.
As soon as they left, he put away his smile, raised his hand and rubbed his swollen temples and acupoints, following slowly while supporting himself on the dining table and the wall.
Shen Qingcheng saw Le Songlin and Chen Ge at the small door leading to the cabin below the ship. The two of them were bending over and peeking under the small door.
Seeing him coming, Chen Ge consciously walked to his side to help him, and Le Songlin explained, “The crew room should be downstairs, and most of us should also live downstairs.”
Did the use of the word “also” mean the man had just gone down?
Shen Qingcheng nodded, “This copy didn’t provide us any luggage, let’s go down and pick a good room first.”
Le Songlin, who had thought he was going to make some bold statement: “…”
Naturally, the crew housing on the fishing boat naturally did not have a room with a private bathroom for Shen Qingcheng. The best room here was only a four-person room, with iron bunk beds on the left and right walls.
The room and the hallway were cramped and narrow, and the lights swaying overhead gave off a dim yellow glow.
The light was hazy, as if it was blocked by something invisible, and it could only illuminate a small space.
Shen Qingcheng picked out the most spacious and tidy room and walked in. A wave of dampness rushed towards his face.
He sniffed: he could even smell the damp musty smell on the quilt and the spoiled fishy smell from the deck.
His face turned green.
Why did he have to go through this, it was so difficult!
“Hey,” with another heavy sigh, Shen Qingcheng gave up and fell onto the bed, “There’s enough room, don’t let the other players come in.”
Chen Ge nodded and looked at Le Songlin, “Shen-ge, we’ll go up and find out if there are any clues. Are you okay to rest in here?”
Shen Qingcheng: “Go, go.” He flapped his hands.
So the two of them closed the door kindly and left.
Shen Qingcheng was left alone in the room. He was lying on the bed, eyes open and staring at the brown pad under the mattress above him.
The fishing boat swayed with the waves, the bed swayed with the fishing boat, and he swayed with the bed he was lying on.
He rolled over and closed his eyes in discomfort.
After an unknown time, drowsiness struck.
Shen Qingcheng was in a daze and only felt the sound of rushing water in his ears. The whole world was shaking, and someone was buzzing annoyingly and causing a fuss by his head.
…
“Shen-ge? Shen-ge?”
Shen Qingcheng suddenly woke up.
He sat up and exhaled tiredly, finding that he was sweating profusely.
Chen Ge worried: “Shen-ge, you seem to be very seasick.”
Shen Qingcheng was too lazy to say more, just wiping his sweat and raising his chin.
“It’s time for dinner. Linzi-ge asked me to call you first, and he’ll bring down a meal immediately.” Chen Ge said.
Shen Qingcheng: “Thank you. Have you found any useful clues this afternoon?”
Chen Ge: “We looked for the crew room first. There were no clues in the room with an open door, and it’s full of players now.”
“There are more closed doors too. We pressed against them and listened: there was movement inside, and the movement in each room was different, but no one came to the door when we knocked.”
“Linzi-ge said those should be the captain and his friends’ rooms, but I don’t know why they didn’t open the door.”
“There’s definitely something wrong with those people.” Le Songlin, who was carrying the food, hip-checked the door open and walked in.
He put the tray in front of Shen Qingcheng and said, “There aren’t many ingredients in the refrigerator, so I just threw some stuff together for you.”
Roasted pork with potatoes; the soup was rich and fragrant.
“Pour it out,” Shen Qingcheng glanced at it and looked away, “It’s not edible.”
Le Songlin was surprised, but unexpectedly did not refute him or express any dissatisfaction.
“You have no objections?” Shen Qingcheng felt strange.
“Yes, yes, God 7 asked me to listen to you about eating,” Le Songlin said with a playful smile. “And if we can’t eat meat, we will only have bread and water.”
It was still okay when he hadn’t mentioned Lu Qi, Lu Qi was brought up, Shen Qingcheng began to sigh for the third time, especially after hearing “bread and water”.
They couldn’t eat the food in the castle, but Lu Qi prepared barbecue and fruit for him.
The barbecue was fragrant, and the fruits were sweet and sour.
Ugh.
Young man, it’s not that I dislike you.
He turned over and lay on the bed. His forehead was sweating, his lips pale, and he said weakly, “I miss Lu Qi.”
He had an inexplicable tone of grievance.
Thanks for the update ❤️

Thank you for your translation 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Lololol just remembering the fact that Lu Qi is watching our Shen Meiren’s live stream and listening to all this is- kyaaaaa 🫣😍
Wait wait wait- i thought Lu Qi’s world didn’t have Taoists, ever, in their history??? Why does his grandpa know that Taoist don’t give out their real name???? 😵💫
He did find some info about them in ancient text or fairytales. They just guessed Taoists existed a looong time ago and Beauty is obviously some ancient person… and is staying in the instances for longer to get used to modern society.😂
Lololol they’re really overestimating our Shen Meiren, turning his image into a studious person when, in reality, our Meiren just wants to vacay~ 🤭😂 alas, for this instance, our Meiren will be busy moping around and missing Lu-dage to properly spend his vacation~ 🤣
It seems like years have passed since I last left a comment, but:
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE NEW CHAPTER!!
He missed Lu-gege, (/¯◡ ‿ ◡)/¯ ~ ┻━┻
┻━┻︵└(՞▽՞ └)
