Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids
Chapter 481: The Unbeatable Divine Artifact
That’s right, it’s rafting, known as the number one rafting spot in East China.
It’s said to be eight kilometers long and takes over two hours to complete.
Fun and thrilling.
Most importantly, this rafting trip is fully sponsored by Xu Pengfei and Li Wanning.
With such a good opportunity for a free ride, why not take advantage of it?
With such a commotion, the little fellow lying on his lap still hasn’t woken up, or maybe he just pretends not to be awake.
When Zhou Yaling finally carried Candy out, Mo Jingchun gasped.
His leg was numb, felt like it wasn’t even his own anymore.
The only sensation was a bunch of tingling numb spots constantly vibrating.
After a while, Mo Jingchun finally got off the vehicle, carrying his leg.
Xia Xiaomin had already gone inside to coordinate with the hotel, and Zhou Yaling went in with Candy, who may or may not still be sleeping.
Around them, besides the bodyguards, only two people remained.
Li Xuanyu and Wei Luxue.
"What’s wrong with you?" If there weren’t so many people, especially with the senior sister there, Li Xuanyu couldn’t have resisted going up to support Mo Jingchun.
Mo Jingchun waved his hand, grinning:
"Just a numb leg, it’s not a big deal."
"It’s really not a big deal, though I seem to recall that strokes have similar symptoms," Wei Luxue said astonishingly.
Stroke... Mo Jingchun couldn’t help twitching his mouth.
"Try to think more positively next time, if I have a stroke, you won’t be graduating either."
"It’s just that my leg got numb from being pressed."
"Come on, let’s go inside, before you convince me it’s a terminal illness."
At this moment, Wei Luxue magically pulled out two lollipops.
Watching Wei Luxue and Li Xuanyu eat the lollipops, quietly watching him on the side.
Mo Jingchun looked up with a long sigh, "What a sin."
Watching Mo Jingchun limping into the hotel, Wei Luxue turned her head in confusion and asked Li Xuanyu:
"What’s up with him? Is it because I didn’t give him a lollipop?"
"Maybe... yeah." Li Xuanyu was silent, but the lollipop was indeed sweet.
"But he doesn’t eat them, I’ve offered a few times and he never accepted."
In the hotel, Candy and Zhou Yaling shared a room.
Mo Jingchun, with a room all to himself, slept soundly without knowing how well.
At the same time, unlike Xia Country being in darkness, the Moon Base was still in endless daylight.
Seeing the machine once again display the same warning, Li Zhongyong and Xu Wenyuan fell into silence.
The drill failed again.
Both looked at the previous drilling location a thousand meters away, feeling a sense of helplessness.
At that abandoned drill site, two expensive drill bits were wasted.
After discussions with the scientists at the Blue Star Command Center, it was decided to abandon drilling in a new location.
And now, the same problem had emerged again.
This meant that all of the efforts Li Zhongyong and Xu Wenyuan had put in over the past two months were in vain.
So many resources wasted, all for naught.
Staring at the data on the computer, Li Zhongyong frowned tightly.
"It shows the depth of this well is two meters deeper than the last one."
"Is this considered good news?"
Beside him, Xu Wenyuan, watching the machine retract the damaged drill bit, said with concern:
"Quickly report to the captain, I have a very bad feeling for some reason."
"Those scientists say the inside of the Moon is hollow, it’s strange that we can’t drill through just over a hundred meters, don’t you think?"
"The drill bits we’re using should shatter rocks with ease."
Upon hearing Xu Wenyuan’s words, Li Zhongyong felt a chill down his spine, feeling as if numerous eyes were watching them.
Li Zhongyong pressed the communicator, "Calling base, this is the drilling platform."
"This is the base, please go ahead."
Hearing the captain’s voice, Li Zhongyong and Xu Wenyuan finally felt somewhat relieved.
In this eerie place, the most frightening thing was the silence.
"Captain, the drill bit broke."
"Got it, return to base."
After the communication ended, Xu Wenyuan and Li Zhongyong exchanged glances.
"The captain seems to know something," they said in unison.
Indeed, they both noticed the captain’s tone was too calm.
As if... he knew the drill would break.
A few minutes later, in a highly classified research base on Blue Star, a dozen people stared at the photos on the projector, and none spoke.
Their eyes were filled with shock, fear, incredulity, awe, and madness!
The image showed a broken drill bit, and below it, a smooth silver metal surface.
The shattered drill bit hadn’t left a single mark on the silver metal.
It’s very incredible! And the discovery itself is incredible.
Inside the Moon Base, thanks to the Moon’s gravity, those living inside the base didn’t float around like in space.
Admiring a piece of lettuce he had grown himself, Li Zhongyong felt greatly accomplished.
"Come to the command center once."
Hearing the captain’s voice coming through his earpiece, Li Zhongyong replied:
"Received."
A few minutes later, Li Zhongyong was surprised to find that everyone who came with him was there.
"Orders have been received, in one week, a new batch of supplies and personnel will arrive, and you will return to Blue Star in the return capsule."
After a pause, the person everyone called captain spoke again: "I will too."
At noon, Xu Pengfei came by.
He joined everyone for a meal.
"Everyone must eat well and have fun!"
That smile on his face, what a spirited young man.
No need to ask if he was happy, happiness was clearly written on his face.
Of course, Candy showed no interest in Xu Pengfei’s speech.
Better fill up, so there’s energy to raft in the afternoon.
The rafting spot wasn’t far from the hotel, only about twenty kilometers.
Yet, Mo Jingchun and his group took over an hour to get there.
Traffic jam, seriously crowded.
There were many people coming to raft.
Xia Xiaomin handled the ticket exchange by herself, while everyone else picked out their gear at various stalls.
Candy pulled Mo Jingchun to a stall with fewer people and unreservedly picked up a big water gun.
"Brother, take one too, let’s have a water fight later."
At this point, Li Xuanyu, who had been silent, directly bought a large red water scoop.
"Water guns are useless; this is what’s effective."
Li Xuanyu made a lot of sense, but... Mo Jingchun’s eyes were fixed on another item.
Manure scoop!
Definitely not mistaken, this thing was a manure scoop right in front of him!
In the past, every rural household had to have one of these tools.
Even nowadays, such things are still often seen back home.
"Boss, do you want to buy this one? You have a good eye; with this magic tool, you’re unbeatable within three meters."
Seeing the shop owner boast, Mo Jingchun couldn’t help his hand from twitching.
Don’t think I’m clueless, isn’t this a manure scoop.
The difference is... it’s new, hasn’t yet developed a patina.
