Chapter 19 Does this sister have a partner?

"Grandpa, are you really not going with us?"

In the yard, Ji Heng sat on a chair and told the villagers about his plan to leave tomorrow, but most of the villagers were unwilling to leave.

The most emotional among them was Grandpa Cui, the oldest one, who was already seventy-three years old this year.

Grandpa Cui was originally a strong old man, and his seventies did not leave too many traces of vicissitudes on his face.

However, the escape and hiding in the past six months, coupled with the passing of his family members one by one, made his hair gray, his wrinkles deepen, and his once upright spine drooped. His eyebrows were filled with deep sorrow and sadness.

Grandpa Cui stood in the night, the sound of cicadas echoing in his ears. He stared into the distance quietly, as if he could see the traces of time left on this land. Facing Ji Heng's doubts and confusion, he said: "Ah Heng, if I leave, there will be no one to guard the village anymore."

His tone was full of affection and determination.

"I grew up in the village since I was a child. I eat the food grown in the village and drink the clear spring water flowing from the mountain behind the village. Tell me, can I abandon this place where I grew up?" Grandpa Cui's eyes were full of attachment and protection for this land.

"Xiuyun, Azhan, Xiaoyi, they are still young and should not wait to die here. But I am old and can't walk anymore. I don't want to leave. Let me stay here with the village."

These words are full of love and obsession for the village, and also a deep affection between him and this land.

Ji Heng is not a villager. Although he can't understand Grandpa Cui's obsession with the village, he chooses to respect it: "In this case, then I... I, can't, Grandpa, I still don't feel at ease leaving you here alone." At the end

, Ji Heng even thought of giving up the idea of ​​going to Meicheng Base.

Cui Jingping patted Ji Heng's little head: "Okay, don't think too much, be careful not to grow tall, I will stay too."

"Uncle Ping?" Ji Heng looked up and looked at this simple and honest middle-aged man.

"Well, you are just worried about Uncle Cui's safety, so I will stay and take care of them." Cui Jingping looked at the back mountain and said with some reluctance, "Niuniu and Ayan are here, and I don't want to leave them either."

When the others heard this, they were also shaken and talked at once.

"I won't leave either, my mother is here too."

"I... I have no parents, and the villagers raised me. If you don't leave, I won't leave either!"

Seeing that these people were depressed and resisted leaving the village, Grandpa Cui frowned, and his hoarse voice was covered with anger: "You guys! All of you leave."

"Miss Long worked hard to prepare things for us to go to the city, and you guys ruined it like this?"

"If you don't know how to cherish such a good opportunity, you are stupid! If you let down Miss Long and the others' kindness, you are foolish!"

Grandpa Cui is indeed the most senior person present, and it is most appropriate for him to speak. After scolding, he slowed down and persuaded: "I am old and can't take a car, and you are all still young. It's not like you, an old man, to waste your time and life here with me."

"Okay, don't say anything more. I don't need any protection. Jingping, you are not allowed to stay." Seeing that someone else wanted to say something, Grandpa Cui interrupted directly.

After speaking, he went back to the house with a cane to rest. His house collapsed and he had no place to live. Later, Long Yilan got rid of the mutant rabbit and asked Grandpa Cui to move to the first floor of the farm.

The villagers were silent, not daring to say anything about staying in the village.

The younger ones had red eyes and their faces were covered with tears.

And it was at this time that Long Yilan and the others came in.

"Your eyes for looking at people are better than that idiot Lin Jinnan." Gu Bingchen crossed his arms over his chest, feeling pretty good.

"Boss! You're finally back!"

Tang Yichao didn't interrupt, but he was actually very anxious.

Chu Wanyue had been out for more than an hour and hadn't come back yet. He was anxious and panicked, but he didn't dare to leave casually.

Now that the boss and the others are back.

If Tang Yichao had a tail behind him, it should be wagging all the time.

"Well, you did a good job. I'll give you a snack when I get back." Gu Bingchen touched Tang Yichao's curly hair.

"Hey, boss, stop touching me. I'm talking to you seriously." Tang Yichao pushed Gu Bingchen's hand away, looking anxious, "Sister Wanyue went out to look for someone and hasn't come back yet."

Gu Bingchen put away his lazy attitude, frowned, and asked, "What's going on?"

"There's no time to say too much. Let's go find them first. Uncle Ping, where is the aunt's family? Can you please show us the way?" Tang Yichao turned around, picked up his weapon, and was about to go out with Cui Jingping.

Cui Jingping didn't dare to delay, and quickly went around to the front to lead the way.

"What are you doing out so late?"

Just after walking out of the farm, three figures appeared in the moonlight.

The voice was gentle and pleasant, and it was Chu Wanyue at first glance.

Tang Yichao raised his eyes and saw the unknown object in Chu Wanyue's hand. He was surprised and said, "Sister, what are you dragging?"

Following Tang Yichao's gaze, he saw Cui Zhan's face was ashen, carrying the unconscious Cui Xiuyun on his back, and the gentle and quiet woman was dragging a rope in her slender hands.

A black, furry leg was tied to the rope.

"Hmm? Are you talking about this?" Chu Wanyue smiled, her voice soft and gentle, "Spider~"

An hour ago, Chu Wanyue and Cui Zhan were surrounded by spiders.

Unlike the calm and taciturn person when they first met, Cui Zhan at this time was like a mouse seeing a cat, trembling all over, with cold sweat on his forehead and a bloodless face.

If he hadn't taken Chu Wanyue's presence into consideration, he would have jumped up and down with a roar.

"Calm down." Chu Wanyue didn't even frown. If she guessed correctly, there was a big spider in front of her. The

spider on the ground was not difficult to deal with. The vines that rose from the ground cleared the obstacles on the ground for their owner.

Chu Wanyue carried the Tang sword and walked into the house step by step.

When she reached the door of the house, she took another step back. The huge vines broke through the wooden door, revealing the scene inside.

Silvery white spider silk intertwined into a huge web in the room. Cui Xiuyun was hung upside down on the ceiling. Countless hair-like spider silks were entangled on her body, tightly strangling her neck and wrists, making her face turn purple.

She closed her eyes and did not move. It was unknown whether she was dead or alive.

In the middle of the spider web, a huge spider as big as a puppy, with eight black eyes staring at the two people who broke in. The black markings on its body flashed an eerie light under the dim light.

The next moment, the spider silks all over the sky rushed straight towards the two people, like a silver rainstorm.

Chu Wanyue pushed Cui Zhan away and leaped to avoid the attack. The ice-blue water blade cut several spider silks.

After a brief fight, Chu Wanyue judged that the spider was a low-level mutant insect.

It was not a problem to deal with it, but the problem was the wave of spiders pouring in from outside.

"Tsk." Chu Wanyue said lightly and threw the Tang sword to Cui Zhan, "You go save people, I'll lead it out."

"Don't be afraid, they can't hurt you."

Then, she led the big spider to the yard, leaving several vines to protect Cui Zhan.

Cui Zhan, who was paralyzed on the ground, held the wall, trembling, stood up, pushed a round table to Cui Xiuyun's side, raised the Tang sword, and wanted to cut the spider silk directly.

The Tang sword was sharp, but the spider silk was tough. He spent a long time grinding it before he could just cut half of it.

The outside was large, so it was difficult for spiders to weave webs. Chu Wanyue's water ability was far superior to her wood ability.

Water blades and needles fell from the sky, and the big spider had no way to avoid them. In addition, due to its lower level, Chu Wanyue won the victory almost by crushing it.

Without the big spider, the remaining spiders became timid and all ran back to the back mountain.

"It seems that some mutants are edible."

Chu Wanyue thought for a moment, cut the big spider into pieces with a water blade, and then tied it up with a rope woven from vines.

When Cui Zhan walked out of the house with Cui Xiuyun on his back, he saw this scene.

"Miss Chu, what are you doing?" He stood there, hardly daring to move, fearing that the big spider was still alive.

"Eat."

Cui Zhan swallowed his saliva and said incredulously: "Eat? Can this thing be eaten?"

Chu Wanyue rubbed her chin: "It should be."

"Sister! Who told you that this thing can be eaten!" After hearing everything, Tang Yichao took the spider legs and was a little frustrated like Cui Zhan, "This thing is poisonous! Can't be eaten!"

"Really? I remember who told me that mutant animals can be eaten." Chu Wanyue didn't give up.

Tang Yichao: "They eat mutant roosters!"

"Forget it, then let's take it back to the research institute for research." Tang Yichao compromised and sighed helplessly.

His sister Wanyue is beautiful, gentle, efficient, and strong.

Everything is good, except that she likes to eat random things.

Long Yilan came up and asked quietly: "Does this sister have a partner?"

Gu Bingchen raised his eyebrows: "No, what's the matter?"

"Oh, that's fine." Long Yilan put her hands behind her back and walked back to the villa.

"What does she mean?" Gu Bingchen wondered.

Jiang Yunqi said lightly: "She may have taken a fancy to Chu Wanyue."

Gu Bingchen: "???"

"She likes girls?"

"Yes, what are you surprised about?" Jiang Yunqi glanced sideways, not understanding why Gu Bingchen suddenly spoke so loudly.

"Ahem, nothing." Gu Bingchen held his forehead, turned his face away, and quickened his pace.

Cui Zhan, who was left behind: "..."

No, didn't you see me?

"What happened to Xiuyun?" Aunt Cui asked hurriedly when she saw the unconscious Cui Xiuyun.

Chu Wanyue found a tooth on her body, and after a simple examination, she said, "The spider is poisonous. She was bitten, but her life is not in danger. She is just unconscious."

There are many medicines in Gu Bingchen's space, but the medicine is not suitable for the disease, so he dare not use it casually.

Long Yilan thought about it and took out a small bottle of medicine from the space button: "You try this? Oral."

"What is this?" Chu Wanyue took the lavender medicine and asked curiously.

"Antidote, I searched in a pharmacy before." Long Yilan certainly couldn't say that this was the universal antidote in their world, so she was a little vague.

Anyway, as long as the poison is not too serious, it can be removed.

It would be too late to get back to the base, so Chu Wanyue helped Cui Xiuyun up and poured the lavender medicine into her mouth.

The medicine took effect quickly, Cui Xiuyun's face gradually became rosy, and her breathing became smoother.

Long Yilan observed and it seemed that the spider's toxicity was not strong. She breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, it may wake up tomorrow."

The villagers put their anxious hearts back into their stomachs, no longer crowded in the room, and went home in groups of three or two to rest.

The interstellar people expressed their love very directly. Long Yilan looked directly into Chu Wanyue's beautiful almond eyes and asked: "Do you have someone you like?"

Chu Wanyue: "???"

"I like you a little, can you be with me?" A brilliant smile appeared on Long Yilan's heroic face.

Chu Wanyue: “???”

Tang Yizhao: “!!!”

Gu Bingchen: “…”

Jiang Yunqi was the calmest among all the people present: “Alan, you are too direct.”

Long Yilan tilted her head: “Really? Then let me put it another way.”

“I like you, can I pursue you?”
