Li Shu was a plant-based ability user in the apocalypse. After an accidental death, she opened her eyes to find herself transmigrated into the future interstellar era.
Li Shu's first reac...
Huo Wei looked at Li Shu with a helpless expression, "You're overthinking it. I can't hand over the army to a kid who has never been on the battlefield!"
But Li Shu was already immersed in the plot of the cool novel he was reading. He really didn't trust Huo Wei's promise. He bit his lip and said, "In that case, there should be no problem if we sign this agreement, right?"
"To prevent you from transferring future responsibilities to me, I think we should clarify our relationship. How about we just be friends? I don't want to be your son, let alone your grandson."
The Snow Wolf's fur was obviously white, but after hearing Li Shu's words, his face couldn't help but darken. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Have you never thought of being my equal and being my brother?"
It finally meets a guy who wants to be a family member with it and who truly cares about it, but suddenly he gets angry and wants to distance himself from it. How can it tolerate this situation!
Li Shu blinked and said matter-of-factly, "Being brothers with you, are you kidding? There's such a big age gap between us, how can we possibly be brothers? Aren't you afraid that others will say your parents are still strong in their old age?"
Howie: "..."
Snow Wolf's head was now covered with dark clouds. He looked at the other man with a dark face and said through gritted teeth, "I'm 28 now, only eight years older than you!"
"How is that possible!" Li Shu looked at him in astonishment, "How could you only be 28?"
Howie was amused. "Why can't I just have 28?"
Li Shu opened his mouth but didn't say anything, but his eyes were still full of disbelief.
Although it can be heard from Huo Wei's speech and behavior that Huo Wei should be backed by a big family, military promotion requires military merit. Even if one has great ability, it is impossible for him to become a marshal at the age of 28 by joining the army as a young adult!
Huo Wei narrowed his eyes, as if he could see Li Shu's dilemma, and said in a deep voice, "I've been interested in military affairs since I was a child, so I've been training privately. After I awakened, I spent a year learning all the knowledge in the military academy, and then I went straight to the scene."
"When I first joined the army, I was promoted to major general, and I had more military achievements than others, so it was easy for me to become a marshal."
Huo Wei recounted all his actions over the past ten years in just a few words. Although he spoke so casually, his military exploits showed how hard he had worked over the years.
Li Shu still sighed a little when he heard this, but his tense heart instantly relaxed a lot. He let out a sigh of relief and said, "Look, I thought the position of marshal was always held by a gray-haired grandfather, or a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties. I have a stereotype. My mistake!"
Huo Wei saw that the other party was sincere in admitting his mistake, so he shouldn't have said anything more. However, he still felt a little unhappy in his heart, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Why did you suddenly go crazy? Why are you so worried about me handing over the army to you?"
"You're worried about the huge age gap between us, but even from my voice you can tell I'm only 40 now, in the prime of my life. Plus, the violent energy in my body is gradually fading. How could I possibly hand over the army to you?"
The average lifespan of interstellar humans is over 200 years old. They have a long middle age, become adults at 18, have their appearance finalized at 25, and will not begin to age until around 150 years old. Therefore, a difference of a dozen or twenty years in age is nothing at all in the interstellar world.
Li Shu was now aware of his own blunder. He coughed lightly, smiled awkwardly, and changed the subject. "I was just worrying about it. Don't take it too seriously. Why don't you just lie down here and rest. I want to exercise some more."
Li Shu's rejection was too obvious. Huo Wei looked at him gravely and finally sighed, "Forget it. Since you don't want to, forget it."
He didn't want to force the other party.
Li Shu smiled and started practicing Tai Chi in the woods again.
The sky gradually darkened. Li Shu packed up the things under the tree and drove Huo Wei back to the dormitory.
As soon as I entered the dormitory, I smelled the pure fragrance of food.
Huo Wei immediately turned to look at Li Shu, "You've been cooking this soup for the whole afternoon, and it's not ready yet?"
Li Shu didn't say anything, but took a deep breath through his nose, then said, "It's almost done, I'll go bring out dinner."
Today he made a tonic, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, a very precious ingredient on the Aquamarine Planet, but it seemed very ordinary here, but the taste was more delicious than what he had eaten before.
Huo Wei closed his eyes, then looked at Li Shu and said, "This soup is good, and I found that the energy in it is stronger than that of ordinary food. Did you add more plants here than before?"
"No." Li Shu shook his head in denial. "I just felt like I could make my debut today, so I made this to celebrate. The amount of plants is the same as before, but this soup is a tonic, so that's probably why you feel more energy than before."
Huo Wei closed his eyes and thought for a while, then looked up at the other person, "You are right, I just felt it carefully, it is indeed different from the power of plants, but this power is also good for the body."
Li Shu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Really? Then I'll do it again tomorrow, without the plants this time, and see how it goes!"
Although Li Shu's ability has been upgraded to level three, the demand for plants is still in short supply. However, if Buddha Jumps Over the Wall can replace plants, it will be a good choice for those star beasts that have not been purchased.
Huo Wei obviously knew Li Shu's attitude, and he nodded in agreement.
With this idea in mind, the two of them immediately began to prepare the ingredients. The ecological environment of Lido Planet was not much different from the former Blue Star, so Lido Planet could be self-sufficient in those ingredients. In just a short while, they had gathered all the ingredients for the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall recipe.
After Li Shu prepared the ingredients, he simmered them over low heat and set the time for tomorrow morning so that they could be eaten directly.
During this period, Huo Wei has been helping him process the ingredients in his own way. Looking at the various foods flying in the sky, Li Shu's curiosity has changed to indifference now, and at the same time, he has also felt an unprecedented sense of peace and security.
That was something only Howie could give him, that feeling of being at home.
The next day, as soon as the alarm rang, Li Shu couldn't wait to jump out of bed, took out the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and handed it to Huo Wei, looking at it expectantly, "How is it?"
