The sudden knife caused Agares to roll over and fall off the bed.
The Tang sword that was slashing at him landed on the bed.
The bedding on the bed was torn, and the bed itself was split open.
However, the spot where Jiang Si slept remained completely unharmed. She was not affected in the slightest and was still enveloped in mist and willows, sleeping soundly.
Agares frowned, looking at the knife that was aimed at him.
The hilt of the knife was wrapped with red willow branches, and the blade was jet black with intricate patterns that gleamed red. It exuded a chilling aura, as if the knife had crumbled into countless corpses, and carried a lingering stench of blood.
Agares gathered a ball of lightning in his hand, then raised his foot...
With a clang, the knife was stuck in front of Jiang Si.
It stood between Agares and Ginger.
Agares' raised foot landed back in place, and the knife that had been between him and his young wife was instantly covered by the willow branch on its hilt. The willow branch covered it, concealing the blade's aura and the bloody smell emanating from it.
Agares lifted his foot, which had returned to its original position, and began to walk toward the bedside.
unexpectedly…
The willow smoke covering the blade vanished instantly, returning to the hilt, revealing the blade once more, radiating a chilling aura, as if warning Agares that if he dared to approach, the blade, without eyes, would strike him again.
Agares's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he opened his mouth to call out softly, "Jiang Jiang..."
Jiang Si slept like a little pig, and with the willow branches blocking the view, no one could hear him making a sound. He was not only sleeping soundly, but he was also snoring softly.
Agares lowered his raised foot and took a step back.
The Tang sword was once again covered by the smoke and willows, becoming unremarkable, lying beside Jiang Si.
Agares' gaze was heavy. Unable to call out to his little wife, he instead called out to Jiang Dandan: "Jiang Dandan!"
Jiang Dandan: "..."
Why call it Egg?
The egg is not there.
The egg is sleeping.
Ignore it, ignore it, then ignore it.
Who told Uncle Dog to try and strike him with lightning before, and even try to destroy his house?
Just pretend you didn't hear it, ignore it, and he can't do anything to you with the egg.
snort!
Despite her insistence, Jiang Dandan secretly slipped out of her aunt's embrace, lingered by the willow tree for a while, then snuggled back into her aunt's arms, rubbed against her belly, and went to sleep.
Agares frowned more and more deeply, standing by the bed, coldly watching them.
for a long time!
He turned around, moved the sofa next to him to sit beside the bed, sat down, took out his tablet, and began handling military affairs and approving documents...
10 a.m.
When Jiang Si woke up, she didn't open her eyes. She touched herself and found no one beside her.
She slowly sat up in bed and called out, "Husband..."
No one answered. She squinted, yawned, and saw her cheap husband sitting on the sofa opposite the bed, wearing a bathrobe.
She threw back the covers, rubbed her eyes, got out of bed, walked over, sat on Agares's lap, and snuggled into his arms: "Honey, why didn't you answer me when I called you?"
Agares reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist, slipping his hand inside her nightgown, his voice hoarse: "I did, didn't you hear me?"
"Really?" Jiang Si rested her head on his chin, grabbed his hand, and pressed it to the spot where Yan Liu was. "Why did you get up so early? You didn't even sleep in with me."
Agares rubbed his hand against her skin, his dark eyes flashing: "Once the master bedroom is fixed, I'll sleep in with you."
Jiang Si gave a coquettish "Mmm" and asked, "Are you touching Yan Liu?"
Agares paused in the hand rubbing her skin: "Yes, it's not in the known evolution of plants. I'm a little curious about how far this kind of plant that coexists with humans will evolve."
Jiang Si replied lazily, "I don't know, and I haven't studied it. It can evolve into whatever it wants, as long as it's happy."
Agares then asked, "In the plant evolution I know of, there are plants that evolved into humans, whose lifespan is three times that of humans, reaching up to a thousand years."
"If your willow branch evolves to a certain level, it will develop consciousness. With time and opportunity, it may even evolve into a human."
Jiang Si woke up, adjusted her sitting position, straddled Agares's lap, and looked directly into his eyes: "Yan Liu has already gained consciousness. Will she evolve into a human? In my previous knowledge, no plant has ever evolved into a human."
"Of course, in the myths I know, there are plants that cultivate themselves into human form. They endure wind and rain, and are struck by lightning, to cultivate themselves into human form."
"As for evolution, could you introduce me to that plant-human hybrid that evolved into a vegetative state? I want to ask... how plants evolve into vegetative state humans!"
Agares's hand, hidden inside her nightgown, began to rub again, as if tracing the shape of the willow branches, or perhaps caressing her skin: "That plant-human evolutionary plant was a thousand years ago, and it's already dead."
"There are only scattered records in ancient books. It was a ginkgo tree that was dug up from the ancient Earth in the Milky Way. It evolved into a human in the Abel Galaxy and lived for 100 years."
Ginkgo trees, also known as silver apricot trees, are among the oldest tree species on Earth. Under natural conditions without predators, a single tree can live for at least a thousand years, and some have even lived for over 5,000 years.
More than 3,000 years have passed since the ancient Earth in the Milky Way experienced the zombie era. They dug up a ginkgo tree from the ancient Earth, but who knows how many years that ginkgo tree had been on the ancient Earth before it was dug up?
It's not impossible for the Abel Galaxy to evolve into humans over 2000 years. After all, pandas have mimicked humans, and the giant moth is the queen of the Zerg. It's not surprising that a tree could evolve into a human.
Jiang Si asked, "Didn't you say that he could live for a thousand years after evolving into a human? Why did he only live for 100 years?"
“Loneliness!” Agares’s hand left his wife’s nightgown, the willow branch wrapped around his wrist, tightening around it. “The records say that the ginkgo tree that evolved into a human had green eyes and long golden hair, as beautiful as the immortals in the ancient Chinese mythology of the Milky Way.”
"However, he spent 50 years traversing all the planets in the Abel system, but could not find any of his kind who had evolved. In the next 50 years, he returned to the place where he evolved, and died in loneliness and depression, turning back into a ginkgo tree and withering away."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si reached out and pulled off the willow branch binding Agares's wrist, holding up the thin branch: "It's definitely not the ginkgo tree from ancient Earth in the Milky Way."
Agares raised an eyebrow: "Oh, why do you say that?"
Jiang Si shook the thin willow branch in her hand and smiled brightly at him: "There is a saying in ancient China on Earth in the Milky Way: it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. If it were the ginkgo tree of ancient China on Earth in the Milky Way, it would live a wonderful life like the Yuan family of the beastmen, assimilating others instead of letting itself die!"
