Han Jianfei stood quietly next to him and did not speak.

He knew that Gentomoko was not as strong as he appeared, and although he could not personally experience this emotion after losing his parents since he was a child, it did not prevent him from understanding Gentomoko's love for his father.

She held her father's hand until he woke up.

"Am I hopeless?" After the old patriarch opened his eyes, he was silent for a while, and only after feeling his daughter's cold hands did he ask.

"I'm still figuring it out, Dad." Gentomoko said.

"I'm asking him," Yuan Chongling looked at Han Jianfei who was standing on the side, "How long do I have left?" ”

Han Jianfei shook his head, he didn't know how long the old patriarch would have.

If it was on any administrative planet of the Alliance, he would have a way to make him get better quickly, but on this primordial planet where he never knew what penicillin was, the only thing he could do was comfort.

"Unless a miracle happens," he was unwilling to lie to the old man, "here, there is no medicine capable of treating tetanus." ”

He tried to activate the Ice Iron Ring on his finger again, but if it was consumed too much or something went wrong during the jump, it remained quiet on his finger and nothing happened.

"I see," the old man coughed twice, "didn't it happen if I listened to you at the time?" ”

Han Jianfei nodded first, and then shook again: "Not necessarily, there are no antibiotics, no immune preparations, which can only reduce the risk, but not guaranteed." ”

"I suddenly remembered," the old patriarch tried to show a stiff smile, "when the old lady died, did she curse me that she would rot in the mud and be tortured by her own children and grandchildren?" ”

Han Jianfei rolled his eyes: "She should be cursing me." ”

"It's all right," the old patriarch shook his head, "it's all the same—but at least I'm not tormented by my children." ”

Gen Jizi held her father's hand, and a teardrop slipped down and landed on the large, dry and calloused hand, which was the first time Han Jianfei had seen her cry.

"I'm fine, don't cry." The old patriarch wanted to raise his hand to pat his daughter, but as if he felt some pain, he put his hand back and let her grasp his other hand.

"Now it seems that Hedong and Ebony are very likely to be combined, if this is the case, you can let Kuria be the patriarch before you leave." The old patriarch took a breath and confessed.

"Hmm." Tomoko nodded.

"If the people of Ebony don't agree to the merger," the old patriarch paused for a moment, then continued, "before you go, choose one to be the acting patriarch." ”

"Hmm."

"I'm fine, it's just a little regretful that I couldn't hug my grandson......" the old patriarch sighed.

For some reason, Han Jianfei, who had been silently listening to the words of the father and daughter, suddenly remembered the immigration boat that the seamount migrants took when they came to this planet under the cliff of the mine.

"Tomoko!" He immediately jumped to his feet, "Maybe there will be salvation!" Fast...... Go to the immigration ship...... That's what you said about Xingcha, how many work and rest cycles do you need at the earliest? ”

Gentomoko didn't understand why he suddenly asked this question.

"Quick! If it's the kind of immigration ship I know, there must be a universal medical kit inside! ”

Gentomoko quickly understood what he was thinking.

"Four...... Four cycles ......" she thought for a moment and quickly gave an answer.

"Then be quick! If we're fast enough, time should be in time, let's go now! He took Genchiko's hand, "In this weather, it is impossible to bring the old patriarch with us, let's pray that the war beasts of the Iron Seal Clan can run fast enough!" ”

After speaking, he said to the old patriarch: "Old man, listen to me, your illness may still be saved, if the things in the cold storage of the immigrant ship more than 2,000 years ago can still be used, let's pray together!" All you have to do is live well! Be sure to wait until we get back. ”

With that, he pulled Gentomoko and walked out of the room.

Before leaving, he called the new shaman Bai Zhi and told her to take good care of the old patriarch, not to let him see the light, and not to be stimulated by anything, so he pulled Genchiko all the way in the direction of the marauder's camp.

Hearing that Han Jian of the Hedong tribe had to borrow war beasts, Chief Moduo, who had just established his prestige in the clan, gave away four of the best war beasts without saying a word, this kind of pack beast tamed by the Iron Seal tribe resembles a goat, covered with long hair, extremely hardy, but the endurance and speed are the same as horses, and it is the most ideal means of transportation in the mountains.

After expressing their gratitude to Modo, Han Jianfei and Gen Tomoko rode the war beast and continued to the mountain.

Although the mountain had been covered by heavy snow, the two of them kept going, and it took less than two cycles of work and rest to reach the huge migrant ship at the bottom of the cliff.

More than two thousand years have passed, and there is no human intervention and nature has almost completely covered the migrant ship, but Han Jianfei still quickly found an entrance that now looks like a cave.

The reason why he dared to come and see it was because he knew that this kind of immigration ship, even if it was at the level of technology more than 2,000 years ago, was designed for long-term drifting or semi-permanent settlement after landing on an unknown planet, and the design life of the devices and equipment inside was often in the thousands.

In stark contrast to the narrow hole outside, the cabin of the migrant ship was large, and Han Jianfei held a torch in one hand and pulled Genchiko through it with the other.

Most of the open space here was clogged with mud and rocks rolling down from the mountains, but fortunately, the main passage of the starship was still open, and most of the hatches were open.

The two of them walked in the faint light of the torches, and finally found the location of the command compartment of the migrant ship.

Behind the hatch was a damp and damp and icy space, and on the captain's seat, there was an almost petrified skeleton sitting, after more than two thousand years, the clothes and flesh on the skeleton's body had long been rotted, but it could be vaguely judged from the black filaments of suspected hair on the back of the head that the captain who died on the post should be a woman.

Regardless of the sighs, Han Jianfei found the ship's cabin distribution map in the command cabin.

After cleaning up the ash accumulation on the fan surface that was several inches thick, Han Jianfei found the location of the emergency supply warehouse on the map.

Luckily, near the captain's seat, he also found a miniature nuclear battery emergency lamp, which was still lit after more than two thousand years.

With the emergency light, the road behind is much easier, and what surprises Han Jianfei even more is that the multi-functional emergency light is also a nuclear battery, which can stably provide 1.5 to 24 volts of direct current.

Han Jianfei suddenly realized that the degree of development of these previous civilizations seemed to be extremely uneven, and it was difficult for him to imagine how transcendent technology such as ice and iron could coexist with these primitive technologies in the same civilization.

But time left him unto think about it, and after digging through a thick wall of dirt, the two finally found the location of the emergency supply depot.

It was a relatively enclosed space.

Because the alliance completely inherited the technical system before the immigration era, Han Jianfei quickly found the location of the medical spare room in the emergency supply warehouse, and after rummaging through the two broken containers, he finally found the universal medical box he wanted in the third container with an intact appearance.

The kit is also powered by nuclear batteries, and in addition to storing necessary items, it can also be used to administer antimicrobial treatment to the body with non-invasive light radiation instead of antibiotics. More than 2,000 years later, the drugs inside cannot still have any effect, but as long as the device is well sealed, non-invasive antimicrobial therapy can still be used.

Sure enough, after being plugged into the power of the nuclear battery, the radiation rods of the instrument glowed with a lilac shimmer.

"That's it!" Han Jianfei said, "Go back quickly, I hope there is still enough time!" ”

Since entering here, Genchiko has been full of curiosity about everything here, but her mind is all on her father, and Han Jianfei has been looking around in a daze, and at this time she finally heard what she wanted to hear the most, and then she came to her senses.

"This thing can save my dad?" The girl, who was barefoot even in the snow, asked.

"That's right! Come on! ”

When returning to the exit along the same road, Han Jianfei suddenly stopped.

To his left was a glass wall, covered in a thick layer of earth and moss, but the light could still see through the glass and the rows of shelves on the other side of the wall.

"This is the library." Han Jianfei paused for a while and said, "Time is not enough, bring more people next time and bring all the books back here." ”

With that, the two of them continued on their way, quickly leaving the migrant ship that was almost integrated into the entire valley.

The two of them mounted the war beast and let the other war beast drag the small universal medical kit, and the people waited endlessly along the way, and finally returned to the village at the mouth of the lake after the two war beasts vomited blood and fell in mourning.

When Han Jianfei jumped off the war beast and came to the entrance of the village with a heavy universal medical kit on his back, a low and long horn sounded in the village.

"Daddy!" Genchiko staggered and jumped off the war beast and ran desperately towards the patriarch's hut in the center of the village.

Han Jianfei carried the medical kit on his back and casually pulled a villager with a sad face: "What happened?" What does this trumpet mean? ”

"Clan...... The patriarch has returned to heaven......" The villagers prostrate on the ground, weeping bitterly in the direction of the patriarch's hut.

Han Jianfei sat on the ground dejectedly.

He's tried his best, and he's been sleepless for seven cycles, but he still hasn't caught up.

As the most successful mercenary leader of the alliance, he knows very well that there are many things in this world, if you don't work hard, you may not get nothing, but you have worked hard, and even fought hard for it, but you may not get the desired results.

At this time, he was tempted to smoke a cigarette.

According to the custom of Hedong Village, the patriarch will be buried by water after his death, and the people put the body of the old patriarch on a leaky boat, light a candle on the bow of the boat, and put a tribute for the soul to guide the way, and put it into the river west of the village.

The boat flowed slowly down the river into the lake, until it was barely visible to the naked eye, when the boat was swallowed up by the lake and sank into the lake with the body of the old patriarch.

"He has returned to the bosom of his ancestors." Looking at Gen Chiko, whose face was stained with tears, Han Jianfei gently patted her shoulder.
