63 Chapter 63
Hoddle looked at her with a mysterious look on her face, and her eyebrows and eyes were smiling, and she let her pull her to the other side and look at him dotingly.
Ran Qiqi thought of what she was going to say for a while, she reached out and grabbed her hair, looked at Hoddle in front of her and said softly: "That, that, you know how old I am, right?" ”
"Why, are you accusing me of not telling you how old I am?" Hoddle looked at her with a smile on his face and quipped.
"Not really? But I really don't know how old you are? ”
Hoddle flicked her forehead: "Remember, I'm twenty-five, if I can't remember it next time, it won't be like this?" ”
Ran Qiqi thought to herself that it was okay, no younger than her, she pulled her sleeve with some hesitation and said softly: "Actually, there is one thing I haven't told you the truth!" ”
"What's the matter?" The smile on Hoddle's face remained the same.
Ran Qiqi twisted his fingers and said in a low voice: "Actually, I'm not eighteen years old. ”
"How old is that?" Hoddle's smiling voice rang in her ears. The hot breath sprayed around her ears, making Ran Qiqi twist unnaturally and said, "I'm talking about business, you stay away from me!" ”
After hearing her words, Hoddle came closer to her, almost sticking it to her face and said, "Well, I'm listening! ”
Ran Qiqi thought that someone would pass by at any time here, and hurriedly said, "I'm actually twenty-four!" Alright, that's it, let me go! ”
Hoddle's hand wrapped around her waist instead, and he looked at her with a smile on his face: "Oh, so my seven-seven is not eighteen years old?" ”
I don't know if it's Ran Qiqi's delusion, she felt that Hoddle bit my two words very hard, which made her blush, and she whispered to argue: "Actually, I've always wanted to explain, but I think that the ability of awakening is not easy to explain, so I ......"
Hoddle's hand gently stroked her hair: "Well, I understand! ”
Ran Qiqi stopped the movement in his hand, looked at the pepper seedlings in the soil and regained his spirit, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, it's good that he has recovered, it seems that it won't be long before small peppers will start to grow.
Hoddle had already left just now, and at this time Zhou Le walked behind her and whispered, "It's been hard these days!" ”
Ran Qiqi hurriedly waved his hand: "I'm not working hard, it's everyone who works hard!" ”
Zhou Le looked at her sincerely, and looked at the comfortable smile on her face, the more he liked it, but he didn't know how long it would take for Hoddle to marry someone home.
Ran Qiqi saw that Zhou Le was smiling enthusiastically at him, and he felt a "chuckle" in his heart, Hoddle shouldn't tell his parents about them! But Zhou Le's current too much seems to be not much different from usual?
"Those blank soils over there will probably be planted again, and the seeds will be purified and planted!" Zhou Le saw Ran Qiqi's unnatural smile, and hurriedly changed the topic.
"Really?" Ran Qiqi asked happily.
Zhou Le also nodded with a smile: "Well, yesterday Sang Neng took other doctors to check the soil!" ”
"That's great, it won't be long before we don't have to rely on nutrient solutions! Do the people outside the base want to grow their own? If they had, they would need to start purifying the soil now! Ran Qiqi suddenly thought of another question.
"Whether the people outside want to plant or not will be discussed when the results of this experiment come out!" Zhou Le thought for a while and said.
Ran Qiqi thought that since he wanted to get rid of the nutrient solution completely, he still had to be planted by everyone, but seeing Zhou Le's slightly serious expression, he still hid his words in his heart, after all, they had their own decisions.
Ran Qiqi looked at the newly grown peppers in surprise, and couldn't wait to tell the world immediately that her experiment was successful, and she could eat these peppers when they grew up in a few days, and she felt happy just thinking about it.
Huo Juye and Zhou Le, who were standing on the side, looked at the little peppers that had just grown, and they also had a faint smile on their faces.
Ran Qiqi stretched out her hand and touched those leaves, as if she could also feel their joy, she looked at Huo Juye and his wife next to her and said, "After fishing out all the waste seeds in the soil next to them, you can plant new seeds!" "Now there are more and more people who have broken through the first level of the wood ability, and several people have even broken through the second level, so it is enough to inject some energy into these new seeds every day.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away! Can you predict when these will ripen? Zhou Le pointed to the pepper seedlings.
Ran Qiqi estimated according to their usual growth rate: "If I input energy to them every day, it will take about ten days!" ”
"Well, that's good, when these things mature, those who don't believe in the so-called wood-based abilities will probably take the initiative to practice!" Huo Juye nodded.
"I hope so!" There are people outside the base who have wood-based abilities on them but don't believe in the wood-based abilities, but they may believe them when they see chili peppers! At that time, these people don't have to enter the base, just stay outside and be responsible for the planting outside!
The ten days of waiting for the peppers to ripen seem to be very long, and the people who know the news have to come to the base several times a day, watching the peppers grow little by little, Ran Qiqi looked at the peppers that were all reddening and said to Hoddle: "Actually, now they are all ripe, if they are planted again, they will turn red!" ”
Hoddle's gaze looked at the green peppers and said, "Are these all ripe?" ”
Ran Qiqi nodded: "Didn't your grandmother's codex say what this name was?" The name of this one is green pepper, so of course it is ripe! ”
Hoddle shook his head: "Grandmother's Codex only says it's called Chili!" ”
"yes, it's all chili and green peppers, are we going to pick them now?" Ran Qiqi's voice was a little excited, this was the first time she had planted something in her life!
"You can't make this a staple, can you?"
"Well, they're vegetables!" Ran Qiqi thought about it and said.
"Then pick it off, the ones planted next to it are staple foods, and I don't know how long it will take to ripen!" Hoddle said, looking at the green seedlings that had just emerged.
"It shouldn't be too long for us to input energy every day!" Ran Qiqi said with some uncertainty.
"Then take these off first!" Hoddle said and started to pick one, this feeling is completely different from the feeling he usually picks things in the space, those things in the space he grew like that without any effort at all, and the pepper in his hand can be said to have been planted with the hard work of the whole base, and the pepper in his hand at this moment can be said to be worth a thousand gold.
Ran Qiqi saw that he stopped the movement in his hand and only looked at the chili pepper in his hand in a daze, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”
Hoddle smiled: "It's just that I suddenly feel that these things are not easy to come by!" "And he usually treats things in the space too casually.
"Yes, these are common in our place, but how many people's minds are really spent here! But fortunately, it finally succeeded! Ran Qiqi also followed suit!
Half of the surviving pepper seedlings harvested a table full of peppers, Zhou Le picked one up and put it in his hand and asked Ran Qiqi: "Is this ripe?" ”
Ran Qiqi smiled and nodded: "Yes!" ”
Zhou Le looked at the chili peppers on the table with some suspicion and asked, "Then how will these be eaten then!" ”
"These aren't staple foods, they're one of the vegetables in my grandmother's mouth!" Hoddle explained.
"When will the Codex be copied, otherwise the whole base will know what these are, and they can't always come to ask you, everyone will know sooner or later anyway!" Zhou Le thought for a while and said.
"This is a good way to let everyone know in advance which plants are what they are, how to eat them when the time comes, and what are the benefits of eating them, so that everyone's passion for planting will be much higher!" Ran Qiqi hurriedly agreed.
Hoddle thought that since these things had been hit, there was no need for Grandmother's Codex to be hidden, so he nodded: "Okay, I'll do it later!" ”
When Ran Qiqi went back in the evening, she found that Ning Yue and Seran were waiting for her at the door. Ran Qiqi opened the door and let them in: "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Wow, Qiqi, what we saw today was really grown by you?" Seya was the first to speak.
"yes, this is just the beginning, there will be more in the future!" Ran Qiqi replied to him with a smile.
"Can you really grow anything else?" Ning Yue also followed and asked.
"Of course, do you believe that?" Ran Qiqi looked at Ning Yue a little strangely, not understanding why she asked like this.
"There are rumors at the base today that the chili pepper shown to you today is just to stabilize everyone, but in fact, the experiment is still progressing!" Therland explained.
"How can there be such a rumor, those people don't want to think about it, since peppers can be grown, then other things must also be grown!" Ran Qiqi thinks that the person who first spread the rumors has no brains!
"No matter what the people who spread the rumors think, the key is that there are really people in the base who believe this rumor, saying that they are sticking to the experiment every day and don't know whether it will succeed or not, so it is better to go out and hunt more crystal nuclei for some nutrient solution and come back!" Therland's face was a little serious.
The smile on Ran Qiqi's original face also slowly faded, and there were such rumors just today when she showed the results of the experiment to everyone, it seems that someone has been paying attention to their progress, she thought about it and then said loudly: "These things Hoddle should be able to deal with!" ”
"Then you have to be careful these days, for fear that someone will be unfavorable to you!" Thran admonished.
"Well, I will! You don't have to worry about me! ”
"General, find out! He was the one who spread these rumors in the first place! Zamo threw the man in his hand in front of Hoddle.
Hoddle turned around and looked at the person who fell in front of him, the man was thin and small, and when he saw Hoddle turn around and hurriedly surround him: "Wronged, general, wronged!" ”
But Hoddle noticed the hand he was hiding in his sleeve, and he used his lightning ability to attack his hand, only to see that the worm in his sleeve was injured at once, and Zamo next to him hurriedly took out the grass core powder and sprinkled it at the bug.
Hoddle half-crouched down and pinched the man's chin: "Tan Planet's? ”
The man ignored Hoddle's words, but Hoddle didn't bother to pay attention to him, knowing that he couldn't ask anything from his mouth, so he directly used his spiritual power to attack his head, and then waved at Zamo: "Take it down!" ”
"Yes!" Zamo should be down.
Hoddle walked around the room, it seemed that the people of the planet Tan were already a little impatient, so they couldn't let those people down.
The next morning, when Ran Qiqi went out, she also used her mental power, but she didn't hear the rumors that Ning Yue said last night, she felt strange for a while, so she changed her direction and went directly to Hoddle.
Hoddle heard Ran Qiqi's footsteps from a distance, he opened the door and looked at Ran Qiqi outside, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" ”
"Did you hear the rumors yesterday?"
Hoddle nodded: "Well, what's wrong?" ”
"Then why didn't it make a sound again this morning? Is something happening again? Ran Qiqi asked anxiously.
"No, the person who spread the rumors yesterday has already been caught, and everyone understands what people know is right!" Hoddle said evasively.
"Really?" Ran Qiqi was a little suspicious, Ning Yue, didn't they say that it was very powerful yesterday?
Hoddle put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Okay, you don't have to worry about these things, now that the experiment has been successful, you should be thinking about getting married!" ”
Ran Qiqi was a little stunned about the marriage, he didn't say that she was about to forget about it.
Seeing her stunned, Hoddle pressed the tip of his nose against the tip of her nose and whispered, "Why did you forget again, huh?" ”
Sensing the dangerous aura in his words, he hurriedly denied it with a smile: "How could it be? Hehe, how could I forget such a big thing? ”
Hoddle looked at her flattery, and gently dropped a kiss on her left and right cheeks: "Good! ”
Ran Qiqi broke free from his arms: "I'm going to go to the experimental base first, otherwise they all go and I haven't arrived yet!" ”
"Go ahead, come early in the afternoon and have a surprise for you!" Hoddle patted her on the shoulder.
Seeing that he let go of himself, Ran Qiqi didn't care to ask him what the surprise was, and hurriedly ran outside and then turned around and said, "Okay!" ”
Fortunately, Ran Qiqi went out early today, and when she arrived at the experimental base, only a few people arrived, and when they saw her coming, they hurriedly greeted her, and Ran Qiqi walked towards them and chatted with them: "How long have you been here?" ”
"We've just arrived, too!"
After a while, other wood-based abilities who broke through the first level also came one after another, and Ran Qiqi saw that everyone was almost there, so she took them there, no one allocated a few pieces of land, and let them take turns to input energy into it, after her own experience, so that every day to use the ability to exhaustion, and then a little bit of recovery is a great help for the ability to upgrade. She had already taught everything she was supposed to teach, and now it was mainly up to them to practice!
In the afternoon, Ran Qiqi remembered that Hoddle's words had passed very early, but when he arrived there, he didn't see anyone, so he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, didn't this person let her come earlier? It turned out that he was now good, but he himself disappeared.
The strawberries on the table caught her attention, Ran Qiqi couldn't help but walk over there, and found that the bright red strawberries were actually placed in a heart shape, the corners of Ran Qiqi's mouth unconsciously raised, guessing that he should have known this from his grandmother! Ran Qiqi held back her greed and didn't touch the strawberries on the table, she was afraid of destroying the heart on the table. The sound of footsteps from behind made Ran Qiqi couldn't help but turn around, Hoddle was standing behind her with his hands behind his back and looking at her with a doting face, Ran Qiqi said coquettishly: "Didn't you say let me come over earlier?" Where did you go? ”
But Hoddle didn't answer her, but pointed to the strawberry on the table and asked softly, "Do you like it?" ”
Ran Qiqi looked back at the still intact "heart" on the table, nodded and whispered, "I like it!" Then he asked curiously, "What are you holding behind your back?" ”
Hoddle slowly brought the hand behind his back to the front, Ran Qiqi saw that the thing in his hand turned out to be a bouquet of bright red roses, she quickly covered her mouth that was almost screaming, and then asked in a low voice: "How can you have this?" ”
Hoddle walked up to her, knelt down on one knee and handed her the rose in his hand and said softly, "Marry me, huh?" ”
Ran Qiqi's face was moved, although he had space, it was not easy to find roses! She was about to speak when Hoddle on the ground suddenly remembered something, and said, "Wait! After speaking, he hurriedly took out a ring from the pocket next to him, and Ran Qiqi was really surprised.
"This ring was given to my grandmother by my grandfather before, and my grandmother said that you will marry men like women proposing, and she left this ring to me when she left, hoping that I would find my other half as soon as possible, and my grandmother also said that everyone there will have a grand wedding when they get married, but here is just a simple registration to say goodbye to your parents and relatives, sorry although I can only give you so much, but I still want to say that it is okay to marry me?"
Ran Qiqi never thought that he would have such a move, she had known that the marriage here was simple, so she never thought that there would be a marriage proposal, although there was no wedding now, but his proposal surprised her, she used to often see other people's marriage proposals on the Internet, she looked at the nine hundred and ninety-nine roses held by others at that time, she also smiled and said to the best friend around her that if she proposed to her, it would only be a bunch of cauliflower, but looking at Hoddle holding the rose in front of her, she still felt moved, She slowly held out her left ring finger towards Hoddle, and watched as he slowly put the ring on her little by little.
Hoddle looked at the ring on her hand, strangely just right, he took her hand and kissed it lightly on his mouth, and then hugged the person in his arms: "You will really be my person in the future!" ”
Ran Qiqi buried himself in his arms and whispered, "When did you prepare all this?" It took a lot of work, right? ”
Hoddle hugged the person in his arms tighter: "Actually, it didn't take much effort! After reading my grandmother's codex and remembering my grandmother's previous words, I found the seeds of the roses in advance, and then planted them some time ago, and they survived well in the space! Then it happened to start after the experiment was successful, so the time was just right! ”
Ran Qiqi looked at the ring on her hand, thinking of the grandmother Hoddle she had never met, and felt a little for a while, she lived on the same earth as her, and when she came, it was the end of the world, and the days must be much sadder than she is now! But she managed her life so well.
Hoddle kissed her lightly on the forehead: "Then let's find a time to tie the knot?" ”
Ran Qiqi nodded lightly: "Hmm! ”
Even if Ran Qiqi returned to her residence, the smile on the corner of her mouth was not put away, and she looked at her hand from time to time, she still had some regrets when Hoddle proposed to get married, thinking that she would probably never experience marriage proposals and weddings in her life, but she didn't expect Hoddle to give her such a surprise today.
When Ran Qiqi arrived at the stars, he saw Xingchen and hurriedly stepped forward: "Xingchen, I'm getting married!" The corners of Ran Qiqi's mouth were almost grinning, she really wanted to announce loudly to the world, she was going to get married, she was going to marry Hoddle, as for the many rumors about her and Hoddle outside, she didn't care about it for a long time, and now the only thing she wanted to do was to let everyone know that Hoddle would be her in the future!
"My mouth is grinning behind my ears, so let's practice as soon as possible when I'm happy enough!" Xingchen said after glancing at her.
Ran Qiqi stood in front of the depiction, practiced for a while and couldn't stop laughing, the star at the other end couldn't help but shake his head, forget it, let her be happy today, anyway, it's not far from upgrading!
Sure enough, as they said before, as soon as the pepper was shown to the people outside, people who didn't believe in the wood-based ability began to inquire about how to practice the wood-based ability and what was needed for planting, and everyone gradually put the problem of shortening the nutrient solution and the disappearance of mutant beasts these days behind, and began to scramble to discuss the problem of planting.
Hiding in the crowd, he handed the previous logo picture of the wood-based ability to the people around him: "Take it back and find out the person with such a logo first!" The man respectfully took it from his hand and disappeared into the crowd with a puff of smoke.
With a calm gaze on the last line of the announcement, the method of increasing the ability of the wood system will be distributed in large numbers in the near future.
"Aren't you worried about being taken by the people of Planet Tan?" Ran Qiqi asked with some concern.
"It's okay, you can't prevent it!" After Hoddle finished speaking, he smiled mysteriously at Ran Qiqi: "When they actually get these things, they will still doubt the authenticity of these things!" ”
"Are they so suspicious?"
"Even if they don't doubt it, they still need a lot of seeds!" Hoddle said thoughtfully.
"So what are you going to do?" Ran Qiqi looked at him puzzled.
Hoddle looked at her with a smile: "Of course we are waiting for them to take the initiative to come to us, and now the initiative is ours, so we are not in a hurry!" ”
Ran Qiqi nodded as if he didn't understand: "Oh! ”
Hoddle touched her head: "You don't need to worry about this, all you have to do now is think about getting married in a few days!" ”
"Good!" Ran Qiqi responded in a low voice.
"I'm going to get married the day after tomorrow!" Ran Qiqi smiled and said to Ning Yue Serlan and them.
"Congratulations!" Ning Yue said with a smile, and then looked at Seran without a trace.
"Wow, congratulations Qiqi, you will be the general's wife in the future!" Seya teased with a laugh.
"If he treats you badly in the future, remember to tell us!" After a long silence, Seran spoke. Ning Yue turned her head to look at Seran, but she couldn't see any expression on his face, and the smile on the corner of Ning Yue's mouth was a little stiff.
"I knew you were good to me! It's really a blessing in my life to know you! Ran Qiqi took Ning Yue's hand and said seriously.
Ning Yue's hand gently covered Ran Qiqi's hand: "Is it so polite?" We also feel very lucky to know you! ”
"I'm going to get married the day after tomorrow, so let's have a good rest these days!" With that, Thran got up and walked outside.
Ning Yue looked at the back of Seran leaving, and also whispered to Ran Qiqi: "Yes, these days are to rest well, and when the time comes to see his family, he will have a good complexion!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes, only then will I have a good look to see the general's family! Let's go first! Seya chimed in.
As soon as Seran returned to the room, he heard a knock on the door outside, he opened the door with some suspicion, looked at Ning Yue outside and said suspiciously, "Something?" ”
Ning Yue went straight in, closed the door, and looked at Seran in front of her: "You're actually not happy at all, are you?" ”
A smile tugged at the corner of Therland's mouth: "Why do you say that!" ”
Ning Yue felt that the smile on his face was particularly dazzling: "Okay, don't laugh, it's ugly to die!" ”
Seran touched the corner of his mouth: "Is there one?" ”
Ning Yue nodded: "Of course it's ugly!" ”
"You're here to talk to me about this?" Therland said unnaturally.
"Since it's sad now, why didn't you stop it at that time?"
"Why block?"
"Don't you like her?"
Like, Seran was silent for a moment, last time he thought he had thought very clearly, but when he heard her say that she would get married the day after tomorrow, he couldn't help but be touched in his heart, it turned out that she really became someone else's person immediately! Looking at Ning Yue's clear eyes on the other side, Seran smiled, and he said with a smile: "Actually, it's not what you think!" ”
"How do you know what I'm thinking!" Ning Yue glared at him.
Theran sat down next to her: "Don't you think I like her, and it's sad to hear that she's going to get married?" ”
"Isn't it?" Ning Yue asked rhetorically.
"Actually, I don't know what kind of feelings I have for her, when I first saw her, I thought of my little sister, and then I witnessed her little by little changes, and I felt that she and my little sister are completely different people, if my little sister also had her kind of tenacious character, maybe she wouldn't be like that at that time! Later, observing her changes seemed to have become something I had to do every day, perhaps this is how the original relationship gradually deteriorated! But when I heard the news of her marriage, I wasn't completely sad, and I don't know how I feel now. ”
"Well, since you're not sad, then I'll go back first!" After listening to his words, Ning Yue saw that his expression was much better than just now, so she got up and left, after all, this kind of thing still has to be opened by himself.
After Ning Yue and the others left, Ran Qiqi lay on the bed and exhaled a long breath, with some feelings, she was about to get married in the blink of an eye, she was finally going to have a home of her own after coming here for so long, thinking about it this way, she was inexplicably looking forward to the coming of the day after tomorrow, she unconsciously touched the ring on her hand, and then she raised her hand to look at the ring on her hand, a simple silver circle, I can't see the material, Ran Qiqi couldn't help but think deeply, the relationship between Hodel's grandmother and grandfather must be very good! This ring has been protected so well after so many years, I think his grandmother cherished it at that time! Ran Qiqi stroked the ring, she would cherish it too.
Xingchen saw Ran Qiqi walking towards him and said, "If you can't concentrate on the practice, go back and practice when you're happy!" ”
"Don't, I'm going to practice hard today!" Ran Qiqi hurriedly assured.
"Preferably!" Xingchen glanced at her and vanished.
Ran Qiqi stood in front of the portrayal and looked at the portrayal seriously, took a deep breath, suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and began to concentrate on the practice!
Looking at the neat portrayal that was restored little by little, Ran Qiqi insisted on using his last bit of strength, and finally the portrayal on the wall became a neat pattern, Ran Qiqi collapsed on the ground and muttered: "Finally succeeded!" Xingchen didn't know when he walked up to her: "Yes, it's finally successful!" ”
As soon as Xingchen's words fell, the ground between the stars began to tremble, and Ran Qiqi hurriedly got up and looked at Xingchen in horror: "Is this what happened?" ”
Xingchen showed a rare smile at her: "You have successfully leveled up, and Xingchen has also been upgraded!" ”
Ran Qiqi felt that she was about to lose her seat, and she looked at Xingchen with some suspicion: "Is this the way to upgrade?" Can I get out first? ”
Xingchen spread his hands: "I'm afraid not anymore!" ”
Ran Qiqi crawled towards the carved wall and leaned against the wall, and then watched the whole star keep shaking, the walls of the first layer over there were about to fall, she looked at the wall behind her with some horror, and found that the portrayal on the wall seemed to be about to fall, she shouted the name of the star in some horror, but the star disappeared, and soon something fell down one after another, Ran Qiqi hurriedly stretched out his hands to protect his head, but he was still knocked out by the falling thing!
