I woke up to find myself transmigrated into a disabled child.

Chapter 440 Yakito Ferry

When they arrived at Redstone Valley, it was already close to dusk. In the short time that Lezhi attempted to take off, the sun had already set on time, leaving only a lingering glow on the horizon.

The western sky was dyed fiery red by the afterglow of the setting sun, reflecting off the Red Stone Valley. In the interplay of colors, it was hard to tell whether the sky had dyed the river red or the river had influenced the sky.

According to Snow, the Red River is the largest inland river in Jormungand and the origin of Jormungand's inland water source.

The river is named the Red River not because the water is red, but because it is connected to an underground water source and the water is crystal clear. Because it is so clear, the dense, bright red aquatic plants growing on the riverbed are clearly visible, giving the illusion that the water is actually fiery red from a distance.

Although it is called a river valley, the Red River covers a vast area, and they could not even see the other side of the river while standing on the bank.

Especially since they are unable to fly at all, it is even more impossible for them to see far.

Lezhi sat cross-legged, one hand supporting his chin, his lips pursed, staring blankly at the fiery red river surface, as if in a daze. Beside him, Maoqiu and Kele were equally dazed.

Their pride in flying was useless here; the three little ones looked increasingly gloomy, their frustration almost palpable.

The anti-sighting leaf beetle and the jelly frog are alright.

Rarely having the opportunity to play in the water, the leaf beetle obtained Lezhi's permission early on, left the water bubble that had sheltered it for so long, and rushed into the Red River to swim. The jelly frog, on the other hand, stayed on the riverbank, immersing half of its body in the river water, quietly enjoying the tranquil moment.

…………

“The high water season is approaching, so I suggest we cross the river first thing tomorrow morning,” Snow said.

They had finished dinner, and the little animals were playing by themselves, while the three tree spirits huddled together discussing their itinerary.

"Crossing the river? How do we cross? Do we just swim across?" He could do that, since he had his second form. He asked this because he knew Snow would definitely have a way.

After all, the Red River is right at their doorstep. They've been coming and going for so many years; they couldn't have been swimming the whole time, could they?

Sure enough, Snow immediately responded to his words, "Of course not, why would you think that?"

You're underestimating them, aren't you? But even though that's what he said, Snow didn't give an answer on the spot. He just said to wait and see tomorrow. In any case, he wouldn't let them swim across in such a miserable way.

"This is not how the Kunling Clan treats its guests."

Snow was unwilling to reveal it in advance, and Lei Xiu didn't expose it either. However, Lei Xiu didn't seem worried, which showed that he was sure Snow's method would work. Since that was the case, Le Zhi didn't bother to investigate further.

After a good night's sleep, Lezhi was woken up early the next morning. When she opened her eyes, Maoqiu and Leixiu were no longer in the tent.

"Zhizhi, are you awake?" It was Lei Xiu. He figured Lezhi should be awake by now, and the timing of his call was just right.

Upon receiving Lezhi's hoarse response, Lei Xiu did not urge him but waited outside the tent with his hands behind his back. After a while, Lezhi, who was fully awake, dressed neatly and lifted the tent flap.

He looked up and was greeted by the warm morning sunlight. After closing his eyes to adjust to the sun's warmth, he opened them again and was immediately drawn to a colossal creature that had suddenly appeared on the river.

"what is that?"

"The Kunling Clan's ferry. Would you like to have breakfast first? Or would you like to go and take a look?"

The noisy sounds rang out again, it was the fur ball that had disappeared early in the morning. After it and Cola entered the Redstone Valley, its flight ability was restricted and its mobility was greatly reduced.

But after spending so much time with Lezhi, its brain is still sharp enough. Not long after its period of depression, Maoqiu took the initiative, and somehow convinced Jelly Frog to provide them with transportation.

Before Lezhi woke up, Maoqiu and Kele had been swimming in the river for a long time, led by Jelly Frog. Now they were shouting and yelling around the ferry, clearly very interested in this new thing.

"Lezhi, you're awake." Snow stood on the ferry deck and saw Lezhi and Lei Xiu approaching hand in hand. He waved to them and then jumped off the ship.

Lezhi gasped, thinking he was going to jump into the river. But a short while later, she saw Snow rowing a small boat out from the side of the ferry, and she was relieved.

"So, are you satisfied with what you saw?"

The small boat came to a steady stop on the riverbank. Snow propped himself up with one hand on his hip and used the other hand to hold the oar and support himself on the hull, grinning as he showed off the ferry behind him.

Ever since they met, he's always been amazed by Lezhi's various antics. Now it's finally Lezhi's turn to be amazed by him. This feeling is awesome!

Lezhi was indeed very interested in the so-called ferry, and gave the smug Snow a look, "Let's go take a look first, and while we're at it, let's call Maoqiu and the others back to eat together." This was in response to Lei Xiu's question earlier.

"Okay." The hardworking and dutiful cook had no objections.

"Hey, hey, don't ignore me, really..."

"Stop nagging and hurry up. We still need to eat breakfast after we finish watching. Aren't you hungry?" Lei Xiu retorted as he jumped onto the small boat behind Lezhi and saw Snow still complaining without moving.

Lezhi chuckled to herself, while Snow, rebuked, rolled his eyes helplessly. Well, he was destined to be a laborer.

"Alright, alright, I'm scared of you, okay? Sit up, we're leaving now."

The small boat wobbled slightly as it started moving, then proceeded smoothly towards the massive vessel moored not far away. The moment Yuezhi touched the hull, she knew the true nature of this so-called ferry.

"Does your tribe like to call house rattan a ferry?"

It looks very different from the common house vine, but the familiar brown and black texture, the lush branches and leaves at the top of the boat, and most importantly, the vibration feedback, make Lezhi very certain that this thing is the most important contract plant of the tree spirits, the house vine.

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Lezhi discovered the truth faster than expected, but Snow hadn't expected to keep it a secret for long anyway. "Yes, how about that? Didn't expect that, did you?"

"You guys are quite creative to use rattan like this." Climbing the rattan ladder onto the ferry and onto the deck, a familiar feeling washed over me; it was definitely the feeling of coming home.

"I'll take it as a compliment."

Having confirmed the ferry's true nature and satisfied their curiosity, it was time to satisfy their rumbling stomachs.

They didn't stay on the boat for long. After catching a few runaway kids, they returned to the shore. Lei Xiu had already prepared breakfast, which consisted of toasted bread slices, fried eggs, roast meat, and a thick porridge. Everyone ate to their heart's content.

…………

"Okay, that's fine."

"This is what you said, the thing that makes the vines move in the water."

It's fluffy, round, soft, and fluffy—it looks just like a dandelion, albeit a giant, mutated version.

After the group officially transferred to the wooden vine ferry, with Snow's permission, Lezhi and his friends explored the ferry thoroughly, inside and out. After inspecting the external facilities, a new problem arose.

He was very curious about what supported the wooden vine ferry to move in the water. He couldn't understand the propulsion system, but he could still find out about the source of power. So Snow could only take this curious boy to the bottom of the cabin and show him how the ship's movement was carried out.

It was just a demonstration, a pure demonstration. Lezhi only saw Snow nurture a giant dandelion-like plant, then shove it into the wall, and that was it.

"What else? As long as you hand Yuanyuan over to Wumu Teng, it will start moving on its own. We've always done it this way." Seeing that Lezhi was still frowning, Snow was also a little puzzled.

Snow didn't understand, and Lezhi didn't know how to explain it either. "Never mind, I'll find the answer myself."
