Chapter 157 They said
The Governor's Mansion on Blue Wolf Star is very simple, and there is not even a guard outside the gate.
Jiang He guessed that because of the Zerg invasion, everyone was hiding.
Lan Xianghe took Jiang He all the way to the Governor's Mansion and told Jiang He everything about the situation on Blue Wolf Star.
Blue Wolf Star has no mineral industry, the soil is thin and the land is not fertile, resulting in extremely poor resources here. Because of its backwardness and underdevelopment, few normal people come here to settle down.
Some of the original inhabitants here are descendants of those who migrated here, while others are the offspring of Zerg and humans, considered hybrids by normal humans. These individuals are plentiful in the Twelve and Eleven Galaxy systems, having initially been picked up by Blue Elephant and his ancestors and settled on Blue Wolf Planet. Later, Blue Wolf Planet's reputation for harboring these individuals spread far and wide, prompting others to seek them out.
Jiang He asked Lan Xianghe, "Why did your ancestors allow these special people to stay?"
"Actually, those people aren't special." Lan Xianghe smiled. "You live on Rose Planet and haven't been this far, have you? We often deal with the Zerg. The Zerg are actually a bit like insect-like mutants. They're very similar to us humans and often come here to trade. The Zerg especially love rice, but their planets are barren; none can grow rice. They buy all the rice they eat from humans."
He paused, then continued softly, "While it's unclear why the Zerg King is going to war with humans this time, if war breaks out, the Zerg will be victims just like us."
Blue Elephant often trades with the Zerg. He has even secretly visited several Zerg planets. Although he looks young, he is completely different from the naive royals of Rose Star.
Lan Xiang, his father and his uncle had all woken up. They met with the expeditionary force on Blue Wolf Star. Even Teng Yinghui and Ji Xuyao were there. Although they came to call Jiang He over, Jiang He did not go.
She asked Lan Xianghe, "Where is your grandfather's room? Take me to see it."
Lan Xianghe didn't understand why she didn't go to her father and uncle to discuss the current affairs of the Zerg starship on Blue Wolf Star, but instead followed a young man like him who knew nothing.
And what was she doing in Grandpa's room? She seemed very interested in Grandpa.
Perhaps because she was a member of the royal family, although she didn't talk much, her words and actions were very powerful, making Lan Xianghe dare not even ask the doubts in his heart.
He obediently led the way, "After my grandfather passed away, his yard became empty. No outsiders were allowed to enter or leave here. Only my grandmother would come to visit occasionally. But my grandmother is elusive and only comes back once every few months."
Jiang He was a little surprised, "Your grandma is still alive?"
"Yeah." Lan Xianghe smiled. "My grandma has a weird temper. She doesn't like to talk to people and rarely appears in public. She has been running around all these years."
They soon arrived at Grandpa's yard. It was a small, square courtyard with no trees, making it look a bit empty. Lan Xianghe said, "The main hall is where my grandfather and his old friends often get together. It's quite large, and there's even a basement screening room. The room on the left is Grandpa's legacy. My grandfather said that if anyone from the royal family comes looking for him in the future, he'll give it to them if they have a connection. The room on the right is where Grandma lives when she comes back."
As he was speaking, he suddenly realized something and turned to look at Jiang He, "You, you are also a royal family member."
But the other person is too young and definitely not the one destined for grandpa.
Jiang He didn't respond. She stood in front of the house on the left.
The door was locked with a combination lock. Lan Xianghe said, "None of us knows the combination. Grandma does know it, but she won't tell me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang He stepped forward and slowly pressed a few number keys.
That was when the Tianlong had an accident.
The door clicked, the password was correct, and the door slowly opened.
Lan Xianghe, who had never been able to enter this house, looked in surprise and asked, "How did you know the password? Did your grandfather tell you?"
Before Jiang He could respond, he exclaimed, "Why are they all spirit tablets?"
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a group of prayer mats, and above the prayer mats are densely packed with spirit tablets.
There are two very conspicuous spirit tablets in the center.
Jiang He: Died in 131, Red Stone Galaxy Turbulence
Bear Brown: Died in 131, Redstone Galaxy Turbulence
"131 years?" Lan Xianghe exclaimed, "How is that possible? That was over 300 years ago. How would my grandfather know?"
Soon, he found the names of his grandfather and those godfathers on other spirit tablets.
Blue Tiger: Died in 426, Blue Wolf
Liang Rui: Died in 426, Blue Wolf Star
Lei Xiu: Died in 426, Blue Wolf Star
Wang Boming: Died in 426, Blue Wolf
Yao Leng: Died in 426, Blue Wolf Star
Qiu Fei: Died in 426, Blue Wolf Star
…
"That's a lot." Lan Xianghe murmured, "Why are there so many? The uncles I know don't have this many. It looks like there are at least tens of thousands, if not thousands."
Jiang He corrected him, "Forty-seven thousand and sixty-three."
Lan Xianghe turned his head and looked at her with admiration. "You are really amazing. You can tell the exact number of them with just one glance. No wonder you can defeat the Zerg."
Jiang He seemed not to hear his words and stared at Xiong Zong's spirit tablet.
Did Xiong Zong die in 131?
Why did he die?
Didn’t his consciousness enter planet A62?
Who is the bear in A62?
The memories of the past were too numerous and fragmented for Jiang He to sort out. She stared at Xiong Zong's name and vaguely remembered that Xiong Zong loved to laugh and was very strong. He had a mother and a sister at home. His mother called him and asked him to go on a blind date after he returned from the Red Stone Galaxy. She said there was a beautiful and nice girl who Xiong Zong would definitely like.
She happened to pass by him and heard it, and jokingly asked him, "Xiong Zong, don't you have a girl you like? Why are you still going on a blind date?"
Xiong Zhong's face turned red instantly. He looked up at her, as if he wanted to say something to her, but he immediately entered the turbulence and she and Xiong Zhong had no chance to talk to each other.
Jiang He's life was too long, and she had too many memories. She had long passed the age where her emotions would cause turbulence. After a moment of trance, her gaze was diverted to a small box in front of her spirit tablet.
Lan Xianghe also noticed it and quickly grabbed the small black box. "What is this?"
It looks very out of place when placed in front of rows of spirit tablets.
As soon as his hand touched the small black box, the box seemed to be activated and projected a screen.
"We arrived at a desolate planet. Although it's in the eleventh star system, it's very close to the twelfth star system, and even closer to the Zerg's planet. This planet is a continuous expanse of desert and strange rocks. There are 7 or 8 force sandstorms every day. The environment is very harsh. But Yao Leng said that this place is very suitable for us to live. We decided to spend our lifetime transforming it, hoping that this sandy soil can be used to grow crops in the future."
"It's my Grandpa Chang." Lan Xianghe stared at the screen in shock. "This is actually the record of my grandfathers when they first came to Blue Wolf Star. I've never seen it before."
A few more heads came into the screen. These Blue Elephants all knew each other. "My Grandpa Yao, Grandpa Lin, Grandpa Qiu, Grandpa Shitou..."
On the screen, these people's heads were crowded together, so densely packed that it was hard for Lan Xianghe to recognize them all.
"General, Brother Xiong, I'm glad you're still alive. Now we only need you two."
The scene shifted to a single Lan Hu. He spoke softly to the screen, "In the turbulent waters of the Red Stone Galaxy, the Great General merged his spiritual power with the core of the Tianlong and died protecting us. Lieutenant General Xiong Zong was swept into the turbulence while trying to protect the Great General's body and disappeared. We named this planet Blue Wolf Star. We hope that when Big Brother Xiong hears this planet's name one day, he will think of his brother Lan Hu and the wolf-like culture of our expeditionary force. I truly hope to see Big Brother Xiong and the Great General again."
"General, Brother Xiong, I'm Qiu Fei. I'm getting married, and I really want you to see me. Although I'm just an ordinary farmer, trying to make plants grow in the sand every day, I'm quite happy. If you were here, I would definitely be happier."
"General, I'm Caihe. When we were little, you protected my planet and saved my life. I swore at that time that I would give you my life. You probably don't know this, but I've always dreamed of being your male favorite. I heard the Queen has many male favorites. I've always imagined that after returning from the Red Stone Galaxy, I would ask to be your male favorite, but you died saving me. General, I might get married soon. The woman's name is Qian Baobao. She has a very violent personality, nothing like you, but I think I like her. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I can't be your male favorite anymore."
…
There are a lot of videos, and these single-person videos should all be shot individually and are private to each person.
Each of them started crying as they talked, and then started laughing as they cried.
The memories that Jiang He had forgotten in the long river of time gradually became clear in their words, like pushing away the dust and fog, and seeing the old times woven with longing.
The last person to appear on the screen was Hongyu.
Hongyu is already old, with gray hair and wrinkles all over her face.
Jiang He had seen her for the last time in a crevice under the abyss. Although she was young at that time, her expression was numb and her eyes were lifeless, like a walking corpse.
But at this moment, although she appeared on the screen, she had a firm and gentle expression, and her eyes were shining.
"After returning from the inner world, they all forgot their memories of the inner world. Only I remember. Jiang He, you can't imagine that in this world, I am the only one who remembers you now, only me.
After many twists and turns, I really married Lan Hu. After Ji Feng was born, because she had the mark of the Zerg royal family, I sent her to my brother. My brother didn't know what happened in the inner world later, nor did he know that his consciousness would be trapped in the inner world in the future.
Jiang He, are you still alive? They all say you're dead, but I have this inexplicable feeling that you're still alive, somewhere, in some corner, just like my brother trapped in the other world, waiting to be rescued.
Don't blame me for being selfish and not telling them that you are alive. I think you also hope that they can put everything aside and start over.
I have been running around, trying to find a way to go to the other world. I didn't dare to remind my brother or try to stop the tragic events happening in the other world. I was afraid that if I changed history, the people in the other world would never be able to come out again.
Jiang He, his brother is trapped in the other world. The Tianlong can't take him away, and he doesn't want to leave.
He found the thoughts you left for him in the archives. You gave them up, but he was unwilling to do so.
If you can open this door, if you are still willing to save my brother, then do it as soon as possible, he won't be able to hold on for much longer.
However, no one should be able to open this door anymore, as time has overwhelmed everything, including you.
On the day Lan Hu died, he held my hand tightly and asked me if I regretted marrying him, giving up the honor of the Zerg royal family, and coming with him to suffer on such a desolate planet.
He probably felt that I had been running around all these years and had not spent much time with him, so he asked this.
I felt funny but sad. I whispered to him that I had been to poorer and darker places. Blue Wolf Star was beautiful. It was my home and I never regretted marrying him.
Lan Hu is dead, and my brother's consciousness cannot return from the inner world and has been in a coma. The Zerg will soon face a starburst that hasn't happened in a thousand years. Given my daughter's personality, she will definitely lead the Zerg out of the predicament and provoke a war against humans. I can't find a solution, and I can't hold on any longer.
Jiang He, are you still alive? You and your brother, please come back soon. I can't be a savior. I just want to sit in the yard and be an old lady with my grandchildren. I don't want to run around anymore."
…
"My grandma is actually the Zerg princess?" Lan Xianghe was shocked. "My grandma is actually the Zerg princess. How come I didn't know?"
At the end of the projected screen, the white-haired comrades were smiling and waving at the camera. They were waving goodbye to the general and Lieutenant General Xiong.
Jiang He turned around and walked out.
Lan Xianghe was still confused. Seeing Jiang He was about to leave, he hurriedly followed her and asked, "Um, where are you going?"
"I'll go see where your father and the others are discussing this." Jiang He murmured, "I think they've almost finished their discussion by now."
Sure enough, when Lan Xianghe brought Jiang He into the conference room, everyone sitting there, familiar and unfamiliar, all looked worried.
Seeing Jiang He, Teng Yinghui stood up in surprise and immediately introduced him to everyone, "This is a member of the royal family, her name is..."
Only then did he remember that he had never asked Jiang He's name.
Before Ji Xuyao could add anything, Jiang He answered first, "My name is Jiang He. I just went to the Zerg's ship's mother nest. The Zerg Queen was also there. I had a pleasant conversation with her."
The Zerg Queen is in the hive, and Lan Xianghe's father and uncle had told everyone about it before.
When Lan Xianghe heard Jiang He's name, he stared at Jiang He in shock, his eyes wide open, which attracted his father's attention. He thought Jiang He was very rude and glared at him fiercely.
Lan Xianghe then realized that he had lost his composure. The words "You are not the Jiang He that grandma mentioned" were stuck in his throat and he was unable to ask in the end.
But he already had the answer himself.
When she entered the Governor's Mansion, she paid no attention to her father or the discussions of the crowd. The first thing she did was to go to the yard where her grandfather lived. She not only knew the password to the door that no one could open, but she also opened it.
As she watched the videos of the "fuck grandfathers," she wore a gentle, calm smile, a faint, yet complex one. Lan Xiang didn't quite understand her expression at the time. She should have shed tears, or perhaps watched with curiosity like him, but her reaction was different from a normal person's.
If she was the Jiang He that grandma mentioned, everything would make sense.
Jiang He finished introducing himself and didn't exchange pleasantries with the others. "War is impossible, and evacuation is unlikely. The Zerg outside the Redstone Galaxy are about to experience a starburst. For the sake of their descendants, the Zerg will never retreat outside the Redstone Galaxy like they did over three hundred years ago."
Starburst? Everyone's faces were filled with shock.
After releasing this bombshell, Jiang He suddenly took a sharp turn and said, "I need Jun Stone. Do you know where I can find it?"
