Chapter 55: Truth and Mystery



"Uncle, what happened to Zhan Zeye's injuries?"

Tang Qiuyue has always been curious about what happened to the man who caused her death?

The tragic death in her first life was a knot in her heart, but she could not find the answer at that time. Later, she went to the end of the world and saw so much life and death that she was no longer in the mood to look for the answer.

The beginning of this life was different from what she remembered. She was not stupid, and she was not overly surprised by Zhan Zeye's behavior or the abilities he demonstrated.

After much thought, Tang Qiyue still wanted to know what was going on.

The one-eyed uncle sighed and the expression on his face faded. He did not answer Tang Qiyue immediately, but took two more puffs of his cigarette.

Smoke slowly emerged from his nostrils, enveloping the one-eyed uncle.

Tang Qiyue was patient and didn't rush him. She just waited beside the one-eyed uncle.

"He carried out a mission. Due to confidentiality regulations, I can't tell you the details. I can only tell you that he went to a very strange place. He led a team of seven people, all of whom were super soldiers who had been tempered through countless trials!"

The one-eyed uncle adjusted the leather cover on his eye, and seeing that Tang Qiyue was listening attentively, he asked her to take a stool and sit down.

"But that mission failed, and he was the only one who survived out of seven people!"

The one-eyed uncle looked up at the sea in the distance. There were fishing boats fishing on the sea, and seabirds flew over the sea from time to time. It looked like an oil painting, and it was hard not to be attracted.

"Even if Ono survived, he was seriously injured. He was practically a bloody hole, with holes all over his body. No one thought he could survive!"

Tang Qiyue was surprised. She clearly remembered that Zhan Zeye only had one wound on his abdomen, and it recovered as before under her treatment. Although she did not see all other parts of his body, it was impossible for him not to touch them as they slept together for several consecutive nights.

She was very sure that Zhan Zeye had quite a few scars on his body, but they were definitely not new wounds.

"He was in a coma for a month. My old friend called in almost all the best doctors to save him, but no one could wake him up."

The one-eyed uncle suddenly mentioned this: "By the way, your sister went to visit relatives when Xiao Ye was in a coma, and then she ran away after listening to the conversation of a few young nurses!"

At this point, Tang Qiyue finally understood why Tang Meilan was so confident.

It was probably because Zhan Zeye really didn't have much chance of survival at that time. Although Tang Meilan was selfish, she was not a fool.

At that time, the Tang family was already in a difficult situation. Arranging a military marriage for her was the greatest protection Tang's father could give her.

"It's a good thing that you, a girl, married Xiao Ye. Otherwise, if a woman who disliked Xiao Ye married him, Xiao Ye would be so upset!"

The one-eyed uncle started to go off topic, but Tang Qiyue didn't want to hear that. She quickly brought the subject back: "Uncle, how did Zhan Zeye recover so well in just one month?"

Mentioning this question, the one-eyed uncle shook his head: "I don't know, and Xiao Ye doesn't know either. When he was awake, there was only a hole left in his body!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

Why does it feel a little weird?

"Once Xiao Ye woke up, he insisted on going home to visit his family. He also said that he wanted to go back and cancel the engagement and not allow his old friend to match him up randomly!"

At this time, Tang Qiyue understood that the old friend the one-eyed uncle was referring to should be Zhan Zeye’s old leader, who was also the matchmaker.

"Because the situation was so special, many doctors were asked to keep it confidential. However, for Xiao Ye's physical condition, Xiao Qin was allowed to accompany him to observe whether he had truly recovered!"

The one-eyed uncle was obviously not just a cafeteria cook. He looked at Tang Qiyue and said, "Girl, the fact that Xiaoye recognized you and brought you here shows that he really cares about you. You are a good child. Live a good life with him!"

Although some of Tang Qiyue's doubts were resolved, more doubts arose in her mind. Fortunately, she did not ask any further questions.

After finishing a pipe, the one-eyed uncle was in a very good mood. He told Tang Qiyue that she didn't need to come over in the future and that someone would send breakfast to her.

She was also told that if she didn't want to cook at noon or in the evening, she could come to the cafeteria to eat, and they would cook for her individually, so she didn't have to eat from the big pot.

How could Tang Qiyue refuse? After expressing her gratitude, she gave the sugar to the one-eyed uncle and went back. She still had a lot of things to do.

Sooner or later, she will find the answer to Zhan Zeye's physical secret, so she shouldn't worry too much about it for now. After she returns, she will start to germinate the seeds given to her by Xu Qiuju.

She did not follow Xu Qiuju's instructions to wet the flowers, wrap them in a wet cloth, and then wrap them in a handkerchief and keep them close to her body, using her body's constant temperature to germinate. Instead, she directly exchanged them for a plant nutrient potion and soaked them in it.

High-tech products naturally have amazing effects. Tang Qiuyue was not worried that they would not work in a different time and space. She soaked the seeds and went to the yard to think about how to plant things.

The yard is very large. In addition to the area for growing vegetables, there is also a lot of space. Because it is an island, there is no need to dig a well. All fresh water comes from the mountain spring water nearby.

Tang Qiyue and the others were in a courtyard not far from a stream, so they could use bamboo to draw water in. This meant they wouldn't have to fetch water every day.

This needs to be arranged after Zhan Zeye comes back, after all, it is not something her family needs.

There were no trees in the yard to provide shade, so she wanted to build a rack and plant gourds or grapes, which can grow as vines.

It would be nice to plant a wisteria. Wisteria has a long flowering period, and when it is fully open, it looks like a purple cloud, which is very beautiful.

The imagination is good, but it cannot be realized all at once. Tang Qiyue is not in a hurry. She has plenty of time anyway. If she is not mistaken, she will live on the island for many years to come.

A place where one will live for a long time must be well decorated. Tang Qiuyue took a sketchbook and the pencil in her hand kept moving as she drew down the imagination of the courtyard in her mind.

It was only when her stomach started to growl that she realized she had been painting in the yard for a long time.

It was already past mealtime in the cafeteria, and Tang Qiyue couldn't ask the one-eyed uncle to prepare a private meal for her, so she went to the kitchen to take a look.

Among the food that was delivered before, there was flour. Tang Qiuyue was not the type to mistreat herself, so she didn't plan to make do with just eating it alone.

Although most people in the apocalypse take nutritional supplements to save trouble, there is still food, but the raw materials have mutated so much that it is a bit scary.

Tang Qiuyue exchanged for a bird egg that was almost as big as her face. This kind of bird egg is eaten by every household in the end times. It is a substitute for chicken eggs and is named fragrant egg because of its particularly tempting taste.

After beating the fragrant eggs, add flour and salt to make a batter, and then spread it directly into fragrant egg pancakes.

I was just planning to fry another piece of salted fish before eating, but I saw a little head popping out of the door, holding a bowl in its hand and swallowing continuously.
