Chapter 125 Return to the Mining Area
However, he was still thinking about what Lu Chi had just said about the mining area, and what Lu Chi had asked him to do.
Lu Chi's tone and demeanor just now didn't sound like he was asking him to do something. It was as if he had met Lu Anguo in person, and Lu Anguo was telling him to do something.
They are indeed father and son from the same bloodline.
Fei Ziming said, "Ye Qiao, come back to the mining area with us later."
Qiao Ye frowned.
His smile didn't reach his eyes. She couldn't curse him out loud, so he used her mouth to curse for her: "What are you going back for? Going back to face a bunch of ungrateful people who are repaying kindness with hatred?"
Fei Ziming said in a deep voice: "You are the soldiers I lead. The soldiers of the empire will never abandon their people. No matter what happens, we will talk about it when we get back."
Lu Chi lowered his head and asked, "Do you want to go back?"
Qiao Ye hesitated and nodded.
She left the mining area just because she didn't want to be alone, and suddenly she missed Lu Chi, so she came out to find him.
But that doesn't mean she is afraid of the people of the empire.
She is Qiao Ye, no matter what situation she faces, she is capable of handling it.
And what Fei Ziming said was right. They were students of the Imperial Military Academy and reserve soldiers. Their military duties were there, and she could not abandon her people.
Lu Chi looked up and suddenly said to Fei Ziming and other instructors, "Then let's go back."
The boy's eyes revealed a hint of oppression.
But when Qiao Ye looked up at him, this sense of oppression disappeared instantly.
Fei Ziming had never seen anyone's face change so quickly.
Qiao Ye returned the flint to him. "Back to you."
Lu Chi put the flint into the space ring.
Fei Ziming handed Lu Chi and Qiao Ye two compressed biscuits and a water bottle.
For Qiao Ye, water is worthless, but for Fei Ziming and others, they tried every possible way to get water and save water along the way. Water is very precious.
But Fei Ziming still handed his water bottle to Qiao Ye and Lu Chi.
Qiao Ye took out a large bucket from his space ring and pushed it to Fei Ziming, saying, "Instructor, we have water."
Several instructors gathered around. "Where did you get so much water?"
Qiao Ye smiled and said, "It's not poisonous. Drink it without worry."
The instructor present shared Qiao Ye's large bucket of water. After being thirsty for so many days, finally having a full drink was a refreshing and comfortable experience.
Fei Ziming sat across from the two of them and said, "I've thought about it carefully. I'm your instructor and you're my soldiers. If anything happens, I'll always be the first to step in."
When Lu Chi heard Fei Ziming's words, he knew that Fei Ziming had agreed to his request.
…
C012 mining area.
The water that Qiao Ye had put in before had already dried up.
The people of the empire began to lack drinking water.
Yi Yuanhua no longer leads the team to practice Ba Duan Jin.
The Imperials lacked self-control, and without anyone to lead them, they were too lazy to practice. As a result, the Imperials suffered more frequent headaches and became more irritable.
With no water to drink, dry weather, and mental agitation, these 50,000 people began to rebel.
And it's getting more and more chaotic.
They began to form factions. Basically, there was the Imperial Military Academy student party, and the Imperial Ninth Army's sentinel guides. Ordinary people were not accepted, so they had to form their own factions.
Among these three factions, ordinary people are the most miserable. They have no strength and are oppressed by sentinels and guides to work. What's more, they are weak and often get sick and injured.
After being oppressed for a long time, people will rebel and then there will be civil war.
It's a mess and a mess.
Liang Guang shouted anxiously to Yi Yuanhua, "Old Yi, if you don't take care of these people, they will kill themselves!"
Yi Yuanhua said, "Why should I care? I'm retired! Can't I just let an old man relax and unwind? Anyway, they don't trust me or my precious grandson. Let them make trouble on their own. It's already good enough that I stay here to protect them."
Liang Guang said: "I know you are angry. But we are soldiers. Lao Yi..."
Yi Yuanhua said, "Liang Guang, I've been a soldier my whole life, but in the end, I lost my wife and children. Don't you think I'm a coward? I can't protect any of the people I want to protect."
After saying that, Yi Yuanhua said irritably, "Old man, I just don't want to do this anymore. I'll retire. They can let whoever they think is capable take over."
"Old Yi..."
Yi Yuanhua said, "I'm already old. I didn't want to get involved in the first place. I only did it for Xiaoye. But Xiaoye took care of them like this, and they treated her like this. People's hearts will turn cold, and so will I."
Qiao Xing no longer lived in the mining area. He lived directly near his vegetable garden.
Those people in the empire also bothered him.
He is just a scientist, not a soldier or a politician. As a scientist, he does not get involved in these things.
Qiao Ye laid a good foundation for his vegetable garden, and he used his own machine to convert the water needed later.
The vegetable planting was successful.
In more than a month, I have harvested a crop of January-grown vegetables. The potatoes have not been harvested yet, but they are growing well.
In other words, as long as there is enough water, green plants can grow and vegetables can be grown on the wasteland.
He will conduct a few more experiments. If they are successful, then the wasteland of Saturn will really be habitable.
In addition to planting, the communication equipment with the Empire was also successfully repaired. Qiao Xing had been sending messages to Qiao Xiu intermittently during this period.
Who would have known that after his brother contacted him, he didn't care about him at all, but was particularly concerned about that kid Ye Qiao.
After knowing what happened to Ye Qiao, Qiao Xiu yelled at him, asking him why he failed to protect Ye Qiao, and then did not reply to his messages for the next few days.
He's sick. He was also very sad about Ye Qiao's accident. Why is he putting on airs with him?
He didn't know why, but even though he didn't spend much time with Ye Qiao, he felt a sense of closeness. Even after that guy left in anger, he still missed her.
It's really weird.
…
On the boundless wasteland of Saturn, the days pass quickly.
Luchi combined with heat again.
The two teenagers stayed in the mecha and refused to come out.
Lu Chi hugged Qiao Ye clingingly.
His combination fever was getting more severe each time.
"Qiao Qiao. I feel so uncomfortable..." Lu Chi moaned. The boy's voice change period was coming to an end, and his voice had become a little deep.
Qiao Ye drove the mecha steadily. She controlled the mecha and quickly left the team.
Lu Chi's clothes were soaked with sweat, so Qiao Ye poured him some water to drink.
"Drink water."
Lu Chi took the water from her and said, "It feels bad. My back is sore and my head feels heavy."
The sentry looked longingly at his beloved guide, his eyes were hazy, like the abyss.
Qiao Ye gently lifted his chin and straightened his face. Her eyes were filled with a domineering look that was rare in her usual days, and she stared at him straight.
"Is it really that hard?"
Lu Chi nodded. He wanted to hug her, but she didn't let him get close. "I feel so bad..."
For a sentinel in the susceptible period, the sense of touch was infinitely magnified, and the place where Qiao Ye caressed his face gradually became hot.
Qiao Ye asked: "Then what do you want?"
The alluring red lips of the little guide in front of him always tempted him, making it difficult for him to see clearly.
"Close your eyes and don't look around." Qiao Ye said.
Lu Chi closed his eyes directly.
The little sentinels during their susceptible period always listen to their beloved guide.
Qiao Ye gently held his hand.
"Does it hurt?"
Lu Chi nodded. "Are you kidding me?"
"Yeah." Qiao Ye had no idea of the danger coming. She couldn't help but chuckle, "You're really quite entertaining."
However, the next second, the sentry suddenly leaned over and kissed the guide's lips accurately.
Qiao Ye was shocked and leaned back.
The sentry accurately wrapped his arms around her waist, controlling her and preventing her from leaving.
The aroma of wood instantly filled the entire mecha. Even the sounds in the air began to take on a hint of ambiguity.
