Chapter 98: 98
Ah Zhuang seemed to listen to his Third Uncle . Although he still looked mad, he brought Zhang Lisheng, Tina and the rest onto the wobbly deck obediently and took them to the two cabins that were next to each other at the cabin head . There were '11' and '12' written in white paint on the metal doors .
"There are only two empty rooms on this boat and they happened to be able to accommodate three people each . One of you would have to stay in the storeroom if there's one more person . Oh, yea brother, we've been talking for so long but I still don't know your name . Let me introduce myself first, my name's Xiong Zhuangming . I'm a Year 2 business management student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University . "
"Brother Xiong, my name's Zhang Lisheng," Zhang Lisheng pointed at Tina, Trish and the rest to introduce them one by one, "She's Tina, this is Trish, her…"
"Did you just called me Brother Xiong? Your Sichuan slang's just too funny . You don't have to introduce the rest, I'm guessing they won't be talking to me throughout their few days of staying on the boat judging by their current IQ . I'm lending you my satellite phone, use it as you wish . You guys can arrange the rooms yourself and take care of each other . It's all men on this boat, we have no nannies to serve you guys . I'm going to watch the wood for my dad now . Oh yea, the little door at the room's far end is the bathroom . There's a shower in there, go wash away the stench on your body . I'll get them to send you guys food later . "
Ah Zhuang then took out a rectangular phone with only ten numbers on it from his pocket after he spoke . He shoved it into Zhang Lisheng's hand then left after turning around .
"What a kind person," Zhang Lisheng mumbled as he watched Ah Zhuang leaving . He then called his mother's phone . It had just rung twice and someone picked it up in panic . Zhang Lisheng spoke first, "Mom, it's me Lisheng . I had been camping in the jungle these few days and there was no signal . I borrowed a friend's satellite phone to talk to you just in case you're worried . How are you?"
"Oh baby, I was worried sick these few days . I would go to Amazon to look for you if you haven't contacted me…"
"Mom, I'm in the Amazon's ancient rainforest doing science expedition, of course, it's impossible for me to be in touch all of the time . Don't worry, I'm safe . Alright, my friends are calling me . We're categorizing the specimen we collected today by the bonfire, this is what we always do . I'm saying this one more time, don't worry about me, I'm safe . I'll be back in New York in less than three weeks, goodbye mom . "
"So, so… Goodbye baby," Lili said unwillingly . Zhang Lisheng hung up the phone and looked at Tina and Trish before him, "It's a satellite phone, do you guys need to call anybody?"
"Lisheng, I would like to talk to my parents . They must be worried sick . I think Trish would want to talk to her brother . I don't understand how did the flood spoil the satellite phones in our backpacks . Otherwise, we would return to Tuikano much earlier . "
"Satellite phone's can't do teleportation . Alright, use the phone to call your family . I'm going to take a shower in the room . Remember, only tell the overall situation on the phone, the details…"
"Don't worry Lisheng, we lie better than you do . Oh yeah, it's inconvenient for Trish and me to take care of Shittu and Walter since they're a man . Could you help?"
"Of course not, I'm not their nannies . But you could put them in the same room as me . Actually, they don't need any special care because they would eat and drink automatically when they see food and water," Zhang Lisheng walked into cabin No . 11 as he spoke .
"You've no chivalry Zhang Lisheng…" He heard Tina's complaint before closing the door . He smiled without caring much and passed by three connected hammocks while carrying his backpack . He walked into the bathroom at the far end of the cabin and took a hot shower with ease . He then washed the clothes he was wearing with soap and put them back on right away after squeezing them dry .
Walking out of the bathroom, Zhang Lisheng noticed there was a shallow basket placed on the tiny cabin's floor . There were piping hot steamed buns and a thermos . The buns were filled with meat only, the oil from the fats would drip when one ate it but it was not oily . There was egg drop soup in the thermos, the smell of the yellow egg drop was tantalizing .
The food was simple but delicious, Zhang Lisheng was eating clumsily . After eating, he exhaled out of relief and comfort then began planning his next step . He figured Tina and Trish would bring Sheila and the rest who were lost out of Tuikano and back to New York to fix them after they returned from the rainforest to the city . However, Zhang Lisheng did not want to return home empty-handed from a treasure mountain .
He could refine another wizard worm under his command since he broke through to Rank-4 Wizard . Amazon had the most insects and reptiles in the whole world . Finding a suitable one to refine into wizard worm was much easier than doing it back in New York . Just when he was thinking about something suitable to be refined, the giant hornet with hollowed spikes on its mouth and tail appeared in Zhang Lisheng's head all of the sudden .
Unfortunately, it was impossible for him to look for that strange giant hornet now, he got rid of that thought after thinking about it . In the end, Zhang Lisheng decided to refine both wizard worms again after sending Tina and Trish back to the city . After familiarizing himself with the new witchcraft incantation, he would return to the Amazon jungle alone to hunt for a worm at his peak performance . He must pick out a powerful wizard worm before the winter holiday ended .
