Chapter 273: Prepare in advance
Jiang Ling lay on her side on the sofa, her hands swiped on the screen very energetically.
"Up, up, up! Ah! ”
Manipulating the characters in the game, Jiang Ling kept urging in her mouth, failed to kill the other party, and kicked Chu Heng's leg angrily.
Chu's mother put down her phone, turned around and came back, and saw such a scene.
Her face sank slightly, and then she didn't know what she was thinking, and she pulled away a smile: "Son, your sister can't be contacted when the phone is turned off, you said nothing will happen, right?" ”
"Oops! Mom, how big she is, why are you worried about her! ”
Chu Heng was kicked by Jiang Ling, but he was not unhappy, but raised his head and shouted at Chu's mother, disgusted that she was rare and strange.
"But I told her that I had dinner today, why haven't I come back yet!" Mother Chu hesitated a little.
Defeat!
The sound of the game failure came, Jiang Ling threw the phone impatiently, kicked him directly with her foot again, and said: "Brother Heng, I'm hungry!" ”
"Huh! Eat when you're hungry! Don't wait for her! ”
As soon as Chu Xu heard his girlfriend say that she was hungry, she also threw away her mobile phone and jumped off the sofa and walked to the dining table with her, and pulled Chu's mother by the way, "Eat first, Mom, she is so big, maybe the phone is out of battery, are you still afraid that she won't be able to find a home?" ”
Mother Chu also sat down at the dining table with half a push, and was about to say a few more words, when she saw her son and Jiang Ling picking up the chopsticks and eating them directly, even if she was a little dissatisfied in her heart, she could only sigh and follow them.
At 10 o'clock in the evening, Chu's mother was watching TV, and suddenly something sounded and straightened up.
"Heng, I'm calling your sister, is there something wrong!"
After a while, the only thing that responded to her was the empty living room and the pale dialogue of the characters on the TV: "I have long seen that you don't love me!" ”
"How could I not love you, I'm your mother!"
"Heh~"
Chu's mother suddenly came back to her senses, her son had already eaten and went back to the bedroom, she had no choice but to bow her head, so she had to take out her mobile phone and make another call to Chu Xu.
"Toot Toot Toot Toot Too~"
No one answered the phone.
Mother Chu didn't give up, and dialed again, and this time, the phone was connected.
"Hello? Aunt? Ah Xu is tired today and has rested. Lian Yue's soft voice rang from the phone.
"You are?" Mother Chu was a little stunned for a while, and looked at the phone number again, that's right!
"Hello aunt, I'm a friend of Ah Xu, I'm sorry, we just arrived at Nanhai Island, and after a day of tossing on the road, she was so tired that she fell asleep." Lian Yue said this deliberately, but it was to avoid that they would not find anyone at that time, and they would learn from her to call the police to find someone like before.
Well?!
Mother Chu was stunned, and reacted that Lian Yue on the other end of the phone was not good for her to get angry directly, so she simply lowered her voice: "Ah Xu's friend, have you gone to Nanhai Island?" Why didn't she tell me? ”
"Oh, I'm looking for her temporarily, let's go on vacation together, I'm bored alone, so I'll pull her, aunt, you won't be angry!" Lian Yue said cautiously.
Mother Chu was already a little angry at this time, but in the face of Lian Yue, she still had some face, so she couldn't hold back and didn't have a seizure, so she could only suppress her throat and say in a deep voice: "Can you let Xiaoxu answer the phone?" ”
"Auntie, I'm sorry, Ah Xu is tired and sleeps heavily today, you see if this will work, I'll ask her to call you back tomorrow morning!" Saying that, Lian Yue didn't care about her reaction, and apologized to herself, "I'm really sorry, Auntie, I'm worried about you, it's too late today, you can rest early!" I asked her to contact you early in the morning! Goodbye..."
Syllable!
Lian Yue hung up the phone directly.
Raising his head, Lian Yue bumped into Ah Xu's smiling eyes.
"I didn't see it, I'm pretty good!"
"Hey, hey, hey! Not really! ”
"It's okay if you don't understand her phone, anyway, she can call if she wants!" Ah Xu smiled and sneered again.
"Think about me last time, you don't want to be approached by the police uncle!" Lian Yue knew that she was very resistant, so she directly took herself as an example, "You can explain it casually tomorrow, and then contact her when you are in a good mood." ”
When Chu Xu heard this, his shoulders collapsed instantly, and his face was full of tiredness.
"She came to me before, she will find a way to pay the bride price, and let me help my brother with the house matter."
Lian Yue saw that she had something to say again, so she listened to her.
"You know what? She said that she was going to sell the house in our hometown, and she estimated that she still had some savings in her hand, and she could barely make up for it. ”
"Then the house, she said that she wanted me to help my brother buy it together, saying that it was a girl's family that would have her own maiden family even if she got married in the future, and asked me to help my brother make a down payment, and I would also help with the loan later, and I would also have my own place in my mother's family..."
Chu Xu's eyes were misty, and when she said this, she saw her mother's face through Lian Yue.
"Is your name written on the house?" There was blood for a while.
Scold~
Chu Xu just smiled miserably, and the result was obvious.
"You want your brother's friend's name, right?" Lian Yue asked again.
In response to her, Chu Xu's bleak and sad smile was still on.
"Heh~ What a wishful thinking! They suck blood, and they are justifiable! ”
"Who's to say it isn't! So, I just want to see, I'm gone, can he still get married! Chu Xu was sarcastic, but loud.
"Okay, don't think about it so much, go to sleep!"
After saying goodnight to each other, turn off the lights and go to sleep.
The light outside the window illuminates the dark city, but through the thick blackout curtains, the two lie quietly on their respective beds.
Except for the imperceptible sound of breathing, the silence of the night was terrible.
Fortunately, the wide quilt is a good protection, and at the same time, it is a good cover in the dark, and people can easily "disappear" when they lie flat on it.
Lianyue set up a spatial barrier in case Chu Xu detected it.
She didn't rush directly to the technology plane, but let her body go, quietly floating under the starry sky of the node space.
The body was as light as a cloud, and Lian Yue raised his palm and adjusted his lower position.
Looking up, Lian Yue looked at the purple turbine above his head, which was still slowly spinning, stirring the thousands of stars around him.
No other plane came close, and no strange feeling occurred.
With a blink of an eye, Lian Yue flashed out of the space.
Here, it's another world.
The speed of interstellar navigation is very fast, and in just two days, they have already established a nest on the planet Arshan.
It is located in the capital area, the center of the political and economic prosperity of the entire federation.
As soon as she arrived, Lian Yue found that the overall garrison specifications and the population density of the planet were much better than those remote planets she had stayed on before.
Earlier, Lian Yue was still a little worried: "You say, can I buy a plantation here with my little money?" ”
After Lian Yue quietly looked at the land price here, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
She thought that she made a fortune by selling grade fruits, and she could sell 50,000 yuan for a random fruit, and her cumulative net worth of tens of billions of dollars could be regarded as a rich family.
But I never thought that 30 billion could buy the latest ship, but it couldn't buy an ordinary small manor here.
What's going on?
"Haha~ Don't worry, I have it!" Seeing her cowardice, Jack smiled happily, stretched out his hand and nodded his brain, looking as a matter of course.
When Lian Yue heard this, she looked suspicious: "You won't have any intentions for me, right?" ”
"That's right! I've got a crush on you—" Jack's eyes sank, and he became serious, his face unconsciously approaching her.
Lian Yue stood in place, he lowered his head slightly, his eyes meeting him.
His chestnut hair was fluffy in the sun, half-obscuring his deep blue eyes, as if to suck people in.
The two looked at each other earnestly for five seconds, and neither of them blinked.
Finally, Jack took the lead and couldn't hold back, he rolled his eyes upward, as if he was dissatisfied with his loss to Lian Yue, "I fell in love with your fruit tree, can't you?" ”
"Okay! Yes! Yes! Why not! Lian Yue knew that he was joking with himself, stood on tiptoe, patted him on the shoulder, and agreed very generously, "Anyway, you have to pay for the land!" You're a shareholder! ”
"I'm not mistaken!" The corners of Jack's mouth furled, and he smiled evilly.
With Jack's words, the efficiency of the work in the back is very fast.
As early as when they were still on the road, Jack had already contacted the agent here, and chose a large estate in the northern hemisphere among the several estates to be sold, and the area must be the size of the Black Forest.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, the domestic robot in the manor house had already received the news.
"Today's breakfast has small cakes, egg tart cakes, red heart jam sandwiches, Lian's soup dumplings, as well as cow and camel animal milk and fragrant jade soup to choose from..."
Lian Yue walked out, and the household robot was explaining on the side.
Lian Yue nodded, asked for Lian's soup dumplings and cow camel animal milk, and nodded in his heart, yes, this technology plane is good, after entering the recipe, he can free his hands.
By the time she had finished her breakfast, Jack and the others were already waiting in the plantation garden.
"Ah Yue, you're finally here!" As soon as King Meow saw her, he pounced, and even his new heel, El, chased after her.
Lian Yue greeted them one by one, and squatted in front of a small plant.
This is a native red heart fruit plant transplanted from the orc plane, and from this area, there are more than a dozen native plants of various sizes.
"The growth is very good, and the absorption efficiency of the nutrient solution is also good, I think I can consider insertion and grafting in two weeks." Jack also squatted on the ground, he changed his previous outfit today, and wore a serious farm uniform, which looked quite like that.
"Not bad! Come on, young man, I'll give you a big red envelope at the end of the year! ”
Lian Yue stood up first, patted him on the shoulder, and made a heavy appearance.
These words have been translated by the node space, and although the language has changed, Jack still understands what he means, and he is also very cooperative, making a look of satisfaction and cheering.
Lian Yue watched it very funny, but she thought it was funny.
This Jack seems to be able to play anyone, and he deserves to be the Jack of the Heavenly Pole Society!
"I want red envelopes too!" Although King Meow didn't know what the red envelope meant, he also asked for it when he saw that Jack was praised and felt that he had helped a lot.
El, the heel worm, is also much more alive at this time, and he also responds to it.
Even the months have been answered one by one.
Jack smiled, but retracted his smile, and he glanced at El thoughtfully.
Lian Yue noticed his gaze, saw the cheerful Er, and remembered the news he heard before, she is a short-term breed and has a very short lifespan.
If she has developed a relationship with everyone now, what will she do in the future?
Thinking of this, she pulled Jack to the side: "That, does El really only live for three to five years?" ”
Jack called up the scan data in his brain: "To be precise, her current body functions have 3 years and 2 months to live without being stimulated by the outside world. ”
Lian Yue tilted his head and looked at the two people who were squatting and observing the plants, and he couldn't bear it.
"Isn't there any way to change that? Is it a problem with the organs? ”
"Organs are just expressions, more of a problem of gene cultivation, short-term birth has too many defects, and short life is just one of the side effects."
Huh!
Lian Yue sighed lightly.
In fact, for her, it is normal to accept such a parting and passing.
In the last ten years, there were no less than 100 people who died in front of her, not to mention the existence of her personal action, and she was able to be calm.
However, King Meow is still young.
It was just a coincidence that he was brought here, and he thought it was a simple trip, but now he had such a close relationship with El.
If you don't get it, you don't care if you lose it.
But once you get it, you can't hide the pain when you lose it.
Otherwise, take him now! Lian Yue had such an idea.
But after thinking about it, he asked him again, "Has anyone ever found a solution?" Scientific research is developed here, and there will always be people with such strange brain holes, right? ”
"Of course!" Jack replied without hesitation.
"What's the solution?"
"Genetic optimization agents are one of the best experiments in short-term cultivation." Jack understated, but the sentence revealed a huge message.
"This, isn't it illegal?" Lian Yue was surprised.
"Of course!" Jack replied, but he didn't know what he was saying.
Suddenly, Lian Yue's mind suddenly rose, but it died down in an instant.
She doesn't have that much energy, and at the moment the technology plane is with her, there is not much sense of urgency, just like a vacation, she can come and go as she wants, except for the friends she meets here, she will not have any burden.
But now it's different, there is a problem with the Blue Star plane, she has to take out more thoughts to deal with it, otherwise, a negligence is not good, and what awaits her may be the arrival of the alien plane.
She herself may not matter, and she can escape to billions of planes at any time.
But the blue star can't do it, the people who live on the blue star can't.
"I've got to go home recently, so I'm afraid I don't have time to take care of these things." Lian Yue pursed her lips, and finally decided to explain it to Jack.
Well?
Jack's originally somewhat childlike appearance froze instantly, and he frowned slightly: "You want to leave?" ”
"Hmmm! Something happened at home, I have to leave, I can't say when I'll be back, it may be soon, it may be a long time. Lian Yue tried to be as vague as possible.
Jack is so smart that Lianyue even suspects that Jack has already guessed her secret.
"What about the kid?" He gestured to King Meow with his eyes.
"I'll send him home." Lian Yue's thoughts were also very chaotic, but after thinking about it, he was still ready to send King Meow away, which was the best for him.
"If there is any difficulty, I can help you."
Jack's voice was lowered, but his tone was particularly serious.
Lian Yue lowered her head to avoid his gaze, she knew that Jack was different from King Meow, and she didn't dare to expose her hole cards without authorization.
Even though she had a life as long as the Spacetime Node, she would have died if she was mortally wounded.
This forced her to be cautious: "I can handle it, it just takes time." ”
"The plantation is up to you, I'll be back as soon as possible."
Jack looked straight at her, through the shredded hair that covered her eyes: "Good! I'll take care of you. ”
"By the way, if possible, help El find a genetic optimization potion!"
She remembered that Jack had said that the research and development of genetic optimization drugs had reached the most important stage, and it would not be long before the results were available.
Jack's connections and methods, Lian Yue is not worried that he can't get it.
"Good!"
Lian Yue didn't reveal too much information, but Jack had already had a guess in his heart about her strange clues from the beginning, he didn't ask, he just felt that maybe he really couldn't help much.
At noon, Lian Yue found King Meow alone.
"I'm not leaving!"
Contrary to Lianyue's expectations, King Meow rejected her offer to take him back.
