Who is Huo Sijin?
The old man's face was full of hostility. He had only one thought about this suddenly appearing name: to kill him.
Li Tang was alarmed. He had thought that the old man's temper had become very mild after turning into a human. Now it seemed that he could still go crazy when faced with something he disliked.
"Huo Sijin is Miss's husband, you old man, do you even know what 'like' means?"
Right now, he was very afraid that the old man and Huo Sijin would start fighting.
"To like someone is to want to be with them and never be apart!"
The old man thought he was absolutely right; he simply enjoyed being with the young lady.
"Yes, liking someone does involve being with them. But if you want someone to like you back, the first thing you need to do is not cause them any trouble."
"Old man, you like young ladies, that's undeniable, but everyone likes young ladies, and nobody says they have to sleep with one."
The old man frowned: "Then why is Huo Sijin able to?"
"Because he is the lady's husband, there is a feeling between them that is stronger than liking, it is love. They love each other so that they can sleep together."
The old man seemed to understand: "Does that mean I'm not as good as that Huo Sijin?"
Li Tang glanced at the old man and nodded very seriously.
"Master Huo is a hero to all of us. He is not only exceptionally skilled, but also knowledgeable in technology. I can say that among all the people I have ever met, there is no one more capable than him."
The old man seemed less resistant: "Since the young lady is so capable, the person she likes must also be capable."
Li Tang breathed a sigh of relief; at least the old man had managed to persuade him somewhat.
"But if he's so capable, why isn't he showing up now that Miss is in trouble?"
The old man's eyes showed hostility again.
Li Tang sighed: "Master Huo went out to find capable people so that they can organize themselves to fight against the interstellar space."
Regardless of whether the old man could understand or not, he talked a lot about interstellar matters.
"hateful!"
The old man's anger radiated outwards, and a chill spread from all directions.
Li Tang glanced at him and continued.
"The zombie virus in your bodies is also the work of the interstellar people."
The old man's eyes were bloodshot, and his fists were clenched so tightly they cracked.
They must pay the price!
This time, Li Tang agreed.
...
With the old man's help, the zombies in the dungeon became very obedient.
Qin Su treated a portion of the zombies each day, based on the dosage provided by the space.
After the zombies recovered, it did not have any impact on their future lives.
Life had to go on, so everyone started researching planting again.
In response to the lack of nutrients on the ground after the solar storm, Qin Su had some improved fertilizer taken out from the underground city's warehouse.
After using improved fertilizer, the soil also met the planting requirements.
Everyone planted the crops and watched them slowly grow into seedlings, and the gloom dissipated considerably.
The old man's current interest has become farming. He spends his days farming with everyone else, and he's not as clingy to Qin Su anymore.
However, another problem arose: he was disliked by Little Hope.
"Old man, you're so old, yet you're still acting like a child. Are you trying to look young?"
Xiao Xiwang has been very busy these days, busy teaching the children and busy using her wood-type abilities to help plants grow.
Despite his busy schedule, he didn't miss any messages from Qin Su.
Knowing that the old man was trying to monopolize all of Qin Su's attention, she despised him.
What does it mean to "pretend to be young"?
The old man asked questions when he didn't understand.
"Pretending to be young means acting like a baby in its early stages when you're actually old enough to lose your teeth!"
The old man frowned and began to reflect on his actions.
"I wasn't pretending to be young!"
What he did was exactly what someone his age should be doing!
"Ha, you really have no shame. As expected, shamelessness is invincible."
Little Hope rolled her eyes, completely baffled by the old man's thinking.
This time, the old man understood; the little boy was mocking him!
"I'm not shameless! Say that again and I'll hit you!"
Little Hope stood his ground: "Fine, let's fight! I've wanted to teach you a lesson for a long time, you shameless old man!"
The two began to fight, and the people around them were so frightened that they retreated three miles away.
Someone rushed to tell Qin Su, fearing that the two of them might actually hurt each other.
When Qin Su arrived, the battle between the two had already reached a fever pitch.
The old man's strength is certainly not to be underestimated.
But Xiao Xiwang was no pushover either; he couldn't manage on his own, so he called over a whole bunch of his underlings.
Those superpowered babies worked together seamlessly; some could generate electricity, some could release water, and some could set off fire...
The old man was surrounded by all sorts of superpowers, and no matter how powerful he was, he was overwhelmed with trouble.
He desperately wanted to unleash all his power, but these little things were people the young lady cared about, and he couldn't kill them.
"stop!"
Seeing the old man cornered, Qin Su called for a halt.
If she had arrived any later, the old man would have been forced into a corner and launched a counterattack, and these children would have been in danger.
"elder sister!"
Little Radish Head stopped and surrounded Qin Su with teary eyes.
"The old man is bad, the baby is scared, sister, please help us, waaaaah..."
Seeing this, the old man also came over.
"Miss, they hit me on purpose, and so many of them attacked me alone. Waaah, I'm so miserable."
Looking at the old man's burnt hair, Qin Su couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.
"what is going on?"
"Little Hope, what do you say?"
Little Hope pouted and recounted the whole story.
"Old man, is that so?"
The old man nodded.
Qin Su's face darkened: "You two started fighting over such a small argument?"
"Do you know how many people have had to stop planting because of your fight?"
Do you know what the most important thing is right now?
The children and the old man all lowered their heads.
They certainly knew that the most important thing now was to grow food and strive to prepare enough food so that they would have sufficient logistics in the battle with the stars.
"I'm sorry, miss (sister), we were wrong."
Qin Su said coldly, "Since you know you're wrong, go and catch up on all the progress you missed today, or you won't be eating dinner."
The children love to eat, while the old man loves to eat sweets. When he heard that he wouldn't have any more sweets, he became extremely anxious.
"Don't worry, Miss (Sister), we will definitely catch up on these processes before dinner."
...
To catch up with the schedule, the old man and the children began to work together.
Watching them help each other, Qin Su smiled.
These are our own people.
"Miss, once there are no more zombies in the dungeon, should we move back?"
Mo Rongguang asked.
The underground infrastructure is quite well-developed, and he actually misses life underground.
