When Feng Chen pushed open the window and prepared to climb out, he found that the water level had dropped to the fourth floor, and the hovercraft floating on the water was suspended in the air by a rope.
The flood receded so quickly that he didn't know whether this meant that extreme cold was about to come.
Anyway, the water receding is always a good thing. He went down to the fifth floor, untied the hovercraft, and rowed towards the sea.
Although Feng Chen was wearing a down jacket and a raincoat, his hands and feet were already cold after a while. The temperature on his watch showed zero degrees, which was not much different from yesterday and remained at a constant value.
More buildings emerged from the water in Haiyun City. Many bricks, tiles and mud had been washed away, leaving only the propped-up steel skeletons.
He rowed through the cold steel wreckage, and when he passed several steel pillars that stood out of the water, he found a cross hanging on them.
Maybe this was the roof of the former church, maybe the cross came from somewhere else, but Feng Chen still put down the oars, held them with both hands, and knelt down facing the cross.
He had never believed in religion, but the moment he knelt down, his whole body was filled with piety. He choked up and prayed to God for protection, to bless Yan Bubu to get through this safely.
"As long as he is safe, I can do anything..."
There was no god who responded, the only thing that responded to him was the whistling wind.
After a long time, he slowly stood up and rowed towards the sea.
Feng Chen had never fished before, and when he got to the sea, he realized that he didn't even have any fishing gear. He stood at the bow of the boat blankly for a while, then simply released his spiritual power to explore the sea.
The mental power spread out like a giant net, trapping those fish that were swimming leisurely and unconsciously, and then slowly tightened, forming an invisible pocket.
The fishes then realized that something was wrong and began to struggle desperately, but they had already been dragged onto the boat.
He used his mental power as a net and quickly caught half a boatload of fish. He then threw the fish that were too small back into the sea and took the remaining fish back to the research institute.
It was warm in the research institute. He took off his down jacket and walked to the sofa. After rubbing his cold hands to warm them up, he lifted up Yan Bubu's trouser legs and measured the length of the purple spider web with his fingers.
Fortunately, it is half a knuckle shorter than last night.
Feng Chen smiled faintly and tapped Yan Bubu on the forehead: "Not bad, it seems you have worked hard, I will reward you with fish today."
There was a huge empty freezer in the kitchen. Feng Chen put all the fish in it. After thinking for a while, he went to the fifth floor to bring up an intelligent computer and began to check the information stored in it.
After a moment, he closed his computer, took out the fish one by one with an expressionless face, and went to the kitchen to clean the internal organs.
It was not an easy task to clean up this pile of fish. Black Lion also came to help. It took the two of them a whole afternoon to freeze all the fish in the freezer.
The dinner that Feng Chen prepared for him and Yan Bubu was fish.
He still boiled the fish in boiling water and added some salt. When the fish was cooked, he selected a few of the tenderest pieces, carefully removed the bones, and poured them back into the pot to continue cooking. He ate the rest of the fish himself.
He simmered the pieces of fish meat over low heat until they were completely melted in the soup, then poured them into a bowl, blew them cool, and fed them to Yan Bubu.
