Chapter 29 The Star I Want to Go To
It seemed like they were letting those two over-energized kids go out into the yard and release their spirits to fight? Or maybe run around the garden like crazy?
no.
Gu Jinyan immediately rejected it.
An Zhi is too young and probably doesn’t even have the concept of what a spirit body is.
Moreover, she looked like she would fall down if the wind blew. Not to mention fighting, she would probably fall down even if she ran a few steps.
Silence fell again.
Gu Jinyan looked at An Zhi, who was tired but trying hard to hold on. Finally, he stood up and broke the silence:
"Have you finished eating?" He pointed to the remaining pudding in her hand.
An Zhi nodded quickly, handed over the pudding box a little, and whispered, "...I can't eat anymore."
Gu Jinyan took the pudding box and put it aside.
He paused, as if searching for the right words.
"Go move around a bit. Walk around...in the boat."
An Zhi looked at him blankly: "...walk?"
Gu Jinyan nodded affirmatively and extended a hand to her.
The hand was as clean and beautiful as he was, with distinct knuckles and light calluses, giving people a sense of reassuring strength.
"Yeah. Let's go see...what the inside of the flying house looks like."
An Zhi's big eyes lit up instantly, filled with curiosity and a hint of excitement.
She immediately lifted the blanket off her body, stretched out her hand, and carefully placed it in Gu Jinyan's palm.
Gu Jinyan slightly closed his hands and wrapped the small, soft hand.
He took her hand and for the first time took the initiative to lead this unspeakably quiet little girl, who aroused all his protective desire, out of the small cabin.
An Zhi's little hand was held tightly, and she followed Gu Jinyan closely.
There was a soft guiding light above his head. Gu Jinyan's hands were very dry and soft, unlike Quinn's cold jade-like skin texture.
The passage is spacious and bright, and the walls extend into the unknown distance.
She tilted her little face upwards and looked curiously at the inner world of this huge, flying "iron bird".
Gu Jinyan slowed down his pace, accommodating An Zhi's short legs, and began to fulfill his duties as a "tour guide".
He first took her to a relatively spacious area - the living room.
The room was covered in a deep red, sound-absorbing carpet and furnished with several clean-lined, sturdy-looking brown leather sofas. Several maps hung on the walls, and in the center sat a low table made of some kind of transparent material.
In the corner, a large desk was placed against the wall, on which were neatly stacked some paper documents and several serious-looking magazines such as "Starship Engineering Monthly" and "Imperial Defense Observer", as well as several open newspapers with complex star maps and news headlines printed on them.
She saw a front-page headline in the Tianshu Star Newspaper: [Third Legion Marshal Alistair concludes border inspection, declares confidence in the stability of the Zerg defense line].
A bit difficult to understand.
An Zhi was more interested in the desk itself.
It must be very comfortable to sit at such a big table, right?
Next is the restaurant.
It's simpler here, with an open kitchen and a bar separating the two sides, with a few high-backed chairs.
The most eye-catching thing is a transparent cabinet embedded in the wall in the upper right corner. Inside, neatly stacked rows of nutrient solution tubes of different colors reflect a colorful luster under the cold light. There are also several empty transparent glass tubes next to it.
Gu Jinyan noticed her gaze and explained simply: "Nutrient solution. We usually drink this."
Time-saving, efficient, stable, convenient for storage and energy replenishment.
This is also the choice of many people in the interstellar world. You can carry one with you and go out anytime and anywhere.
Precise nutritional ratios meet basic survival needs, with different price points to choose from, providing diversified matching from top to bottom.
Most of the things I brought with me this time were high-energy shots distributed by the legion. One bottle can last for three days.
Gu Changfeng seemed to have picked up something else before going out. The commander of the Tenth Legion had his own preferences and did not like the monotonous taste of the basic nutrient solution.
An Zhi nodded, seeming to understand, and her gaze turned to the left side of the restaurant.
There, a small, green wonder commanded her full attention.
This is a pot of lush spider plant, with emerald green leaves hanging down from the edge of the white flowerpot, full of vitality.
"Huahua!" An Zhi exclaimed softly, her big eyes sparkling. She couldn't help but let go of Gu Jinyan's hand, ran over, stretched out her little hand, and carefully touched the drooping, soft leaves.
It feels cool to the touch, but carries the breath of life.
In my previous life, there was a similar plant on the balcony of my home, but no one took care of it and it withered away.
An Zhi looked around and found a very small spray bottle on the small table next to him.
There was some water in the watering can. She stood on tiptoe and sprayed some water on the leaves and roots of the spider plant very carefully and vividly, imitating the vague method in her memory.
The water drops fell on the leaves and rolled down like tiny pearls.
Leave the restaurant and continue along the passage.
On one side of the passage, there appeared several round transparent windows embedded in the thick alloy wall.
An Zhi turned her head curiously and looked over. She was a little short, and just as she was trying to tiptoe, Gu Jinyan picked her up.
In an instant, An Zhi held his breath, his big eyes widened, filled with indescribable shock.
Outside the window is the vast and boundless universe.
Countless bright stars of different sizes are inlaid on the black velvet background.
They twinkle quietly, sometimes bright as diamonds, sometimes hazy as mist, converging into a magnificent silver band that stretches across the horizon. In the distance, you can also see some colorful nebulae, like paint splashed on the canvas of the universe.
Beneath his feet, a yellow-brown planet was slowly rotating, its surface covered with large gray patches and scattered spots of light that looked like cities.
"That...that is..." An Zhi pointed at the planet, his voice trembling with surprise.
"G7725." Gu Jinyan's voice sounded in her ears, "It's the star you saw when you came here."
Garbage Planet...
An Zhi looked at the planet that seemed so small in the vast sea of stars, his little face full of disbelief.
So this is what the place where she lives looks like among the stars?
It looks so small, so far away...
Uncle Quinn, Grandpa Kane, Grandma Kane, the little shack swaying in the dark, those terrible rooms and the Zerg... were all left far away on that little star.
"Where is the star we are going to?" An Zhi asked in a low voice.
Gu Jinyan held her, adjusted the angle, and pointed to the depths of the brilliant sea of stars outside the porthole.
