Interstellar: The correct way to become cannon fodder in a book

The grandparents and grandchildren finally made their way out of the crowd and arrived in front of a large villa.

The ten Ye family guards who had been following closely stepped forward and opened the door of the villa.

Perhaps it’s because the head of the Ye family doesn’t often return to this small planet, nor does he live here.

The Ye family’s main home is on Sunset Star, so the Ye family’s residence here is not a manor like the one on Sunset Star.

The head of the Ye family turned around with a smile, his tone gentle and extremely humane.

"Well, you must miss your family after being away from home for so long. Go back quickly and don't stay here with me, old man."

The ten guards who had remained silent from beginning to end but followed closely behind the grandparents and grandchildren finally stopped being silent.

One of them seemed to be the captain of this team. He stepped forward and said:

"Master, this is not good. Our mission is to protect you and the young master."

"If you let us go, what will happen to your and the young master's safety?"

The captain addressed the Ye family not as the patriarch but as the head of the family.

This obviously distinguishes these 10 butterfly people from the group just now.

The head of the Ye family smiled and rubbed Ye Sheng's head. It was said that Ye Sheng had good hair quality and a lot of hair, which felt very good to the touch with its furry feel.

And it's like an addiction, once you touch it you can't help but touch it a second time.

There is an old saying that goes, there are only zero times and countless times for anything in the world.

Ye Sheng said: "..."

Thanks for the invitation, my mother tongue is speechless...

She didn't know how many times she had been touched on the head along the way, and she was afraid that if she continued to be touched, she would become bald one day.

Ye Sheng thought about herself becoming a bald man...hiss...the picture was too beautiful that she couldn't even imagine it.

So Ye Sheng decided to endure it...

Under pressure from his elders, Ye Sheng decided... to just endure it.

And now that technology is so advanced, the effect of hair growth liquid should be good... I think...

The head of the Ye family didn't care about Ye Sheng's little worries, mainly because he couldn't do anything about it even if he wanted to.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to us, grandparents and grandchildren. You guys should go back quickly."

"I'm old, and it's hard for me to speak. I don't want to say it for the third time."

The captain seemed to want to say something else, but after hearing the last words of the Ye family head, he silently took a step back and returned to the team.

Just like that, the ten Ye family guards went back to their homes and looked for their mothers.

Ye Sheng and the head of the Ye family were the only ones left in the huge villa.

This villa is very clean, and you can tell at a glance that someone cleans it all year round.

The villa has a total of 4 floors including a basement, and there is also a very large swimming pool in the yard.

The head of the Ye family and Ye Sheng talked as they walked, and the content of their conversation was obviously the question that Ye Sheng just wanted to ask.

"Yes, just as you just saw, your great-grandfather is the patriarch of the Butterfly Clan. Isn't that impressive? Hahaha."

Ye Sheng: "..."

Ye Sheng suddenly understood how Xiao Ning and Luo Luo felt when he was showing off.

Haha, this feeling is really... quite wonderful...

The head of the Ye family was not serious for three seconds, then he coughed and got back to the topic.

"Xiao Sheng, my great-grandfather has always known that you are very smart. I'm sure you have guessed it. Yes, it is just as you thought."

Ye Sheng: “???”

What am I thinking? Why does Ye Sheng feel like they are not on the same wavelength?

Ye Sheng, who had been in the world for a long time, said that she finally met someone who could make her choke today.

Ye Sheng performed Shi Ning's signature move: raising his hand to support his forehead.

"Great-grandfather, can you be a little more normal? Please restore your image on Sunset Star, okay?"

Ye Sheng always thought she was not serious until she met someone who was even more not serious than her.

Ye Sheng admitted his defeat.

When the head of the Ye family heard his child say this, he smiled awkwardly and coughed lightly to cover up his embarrassment.

“Ahem…The leader of our Ye family has served as the chief of the Butterfly Clan since ancient times.”

“Although he is called the clan leader, in fact, our Ye family is more like the guardian of the butterfly clan and even more like the guardian of this planet.”

"It is precisely because of this special identity that our Ye family has been living outside."

"It is to prevent this planet from being discovered by outsiders, or to transfer our people in time if it is discovered."

Ye Sheng listened to the endless words of the Ye family master, nodded twice, as if he understood, and then pretended to be naive and said:

"Then why do they call me Young Clan Leader? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be my turn to be the Young Clan Leader."

The head of the Ye family looked at his child's clear yet stupid eyes and smiled awkwardly.

Although this clear and stupid look was just pretended by Ye Sheng.

"Um... you know, our Ye family's common mission is to protect this place, to protect this beautiful place."

"But as the clan leader and junior clan leader, I am always busier and more worried."

"Your mother, aunt, and your grandfather... ahem... were not very willing... so the position of young patriarch remained vacant until you were born."

When Master Ye said this, his eyes avoided and he looked obviously guilty.

Ye Sheng felt blessed instantly.

I understand. It just so happened that I was born here, so I inherited the identity of the bitter turtle.

Ye Sheng slowly smiled and said something shocking.

"Oh, because no one wanted to be the young patriarch, so I, who was young and weak and could not take care of myself and had just turned 8 and was considered a minor, was forced to inherit this destined miserable body, right? My dear great-grandfather."

Good guy, Ye Sheng exclaimed. Ye Sheng himself is a person who is extremely casual and pursues freedom.

Now you suddenly tell her:

Alas! Ye Sheng, don't even think about continuing to be a jerk in the future. Congratulations on inheriting a status that even dogs despise.

You have to manage such a large ethnic group, and your life will be exhausting every day.

Ye Sheng suddenly felt that her psychological defenses were still too fragile.

Is it too late for her to escape now?

The head of the Ye family seemed to hear Ye Sheng's gritting teeth, and he felt even more guilty.

"Ahem, Xiao Sheng, how can you say that? This is an honorable and sacred identity."

"You should be honored by that."

Ye Sheng: "..."

Do you believe what your great-grandfather said? Could you please take away that guilty look in your eyes?

"Great-grandfather, do you believe what you said?"

The first reaction of the head of the Ye family when he heard Ye Sheng’s voice and the content of his words was: Of course I don’t believe it.

Of course, I can't say out loud that I don't believe it.

For some reason, Patriarch Ye suddenly thought of his youth.

Why could he become the clan leader...it's all tears if I talk too much!

Back then, this identity was clearly given to his elder brother! But because he lost the bet...so the miserable fate and responsibility fell on him.

Ye Sheng noticed the expression of the head of the Ye family and smiled knowingly. The beautiful face in the sunlight did not seem to be real.

It seems that she is not the only one with a miserable fate, her great-grandfather is the same.

They walked into the house and sat down on the sofa. The villa was very clean and the figures of the grandparents and grandchildren were reflected on the tiles.

The head of the Ye family sat on the sofa and took a breath. There was an old jade ring on his old hand.

That jade ring was not simply a space ring. He took out a small tag from the space ring.

The small sign is dark gold in color and has a layer of white substance around the edges.

There is a black butterfly with its wings spread out, ready to fly, on the small sign.

It also emits a faint purple luster. It is hard to tell what material it is made of, but it is obvious at first glance that it is a good thing.

The head of the Ye family handed the small sign to Ye Sheng and continued:

"Xiao Sheng, take this little sign."

Ye Sheng took the small sign handed over by the head of the Ye family and played with it in his hands curiously for a few times.

She raised her head and looked at the head of the Ye family who was sitting lazily on the sofa.

"Great-grandfather, what is this? What are you doing to me?"

Ye Sheng already had some guesses in her mind, but in order to maintain the character she had created before, she still acted obediently.

Combined with what the butterfly people said before and the old man in front of him.

Ye Sheng's mind was as clear as a mirror.

The head of the Ye family looked at the child's ignorant eyes and gave her a half-smile, then poured himself a cup of tea.

"This thing is your symbol as the young leader of the Butterfly Clan. With it, everyone on this planet and those who are out there will follow your lead."

"Only if you don't hurt them."

"You have to remember that our identity is not leaders but guardians."

Ye Sheng nodded and imitated the head of the Ye family and poured himself a cup of tea.

In this era of rapid development, some things that were originally ordinary are no longer ordinary here.

That's what tea is like.

Nowadays tea is no longer ordinary, it is very expensive.

——Because it is too difficult to grow.

Tea gradually became something that only the upper class had and became a manifestation of status.

Ye Sheng sipped his tea in small sips.

Well, it seems that this planet is really well developed. Things like tea can be found everywhere here.

Ever since the ancient planet where humans lived was completely polluted and could no longer be inhabited, humans began to wander the stars.

At first, humans simply wandered in the galaxy where the ancient planet was located, until the only star in that galaxy reached the end of its life.

The star exploded.

The huge waves and energy generated are undoubtedly a huge disaster for mankind, but it also comes with benefits.

It was an extremely chaotic era, with humanity moving forward on the path of death and progress together.

Humans call the time when the star exploded the Star Era Year.

After that energy storm, those who were affected and successfully evolved were also called Butterfly People.

So in other words, the time when the Butterfly Clan actually came into being was that chaotic era, which was the first year of the interstellar universe.

That turmoil not only created the Butterfly Clan, a human group that successfully evolved and broke through the nature of their own appearance.

It has also led to tremendous technological progress in human history.

Those crazy scientists and inventors collected the energy from the exploding star and studied it, which led to a qualitative change in human technology.

Human beings have also officially entered the field of "virtual".

He also completely became one of the masters of the vast and boundless starry sky.

Although the explosion nearly caused the extinction of the human race, it was also a turning point for the human race from weak to strong.

Ye Sheng recalled the text he saw in the "History of Interstellar Records" in the Ye family library.

Ye Sheng leaned back on the sofa with his face buried in his clothes, thinking secretly in his heart.

The explosion may have been a carnival for technology, but it was definitely a disaster for written records and cultural communication.

In the huge storm and energy generated by the explosion of that star, humans were unable to take care of themselves, so how could they have the mind to protect these cultures and books?

This also leads to one thing: in the records of the four countries, there are very few written records about that ancient planet.

Ye Sheng recalled the books he had read and the memories of his past life.

She knew the name of that ancient planet, the name of humanity’s original home.

It’s called – Earth.

And that exploding star that seemed like a double-edged sword also had its own name, a name given to it by humans.

--sun.

Maybe it is to commemorate, maybe it is to remember.

After humans found a habitable planet, they began to call the visible light in the sky the sun.

The one at night is called the moon.

Thinking of this, Ye Sheng suddenly asked a question for some unknown reason.

"Great-grandfather, doesn't the planet we live on now have a name?"

“It should have a name.”

The last sentence Ye Sheng said no longer sounded like a question, but rather like a soliloquy.

The head of the Ye family smiled and touched Ye Sheng's head again. His gentle tone and kind face created a beautiful picture.

"Of course there is, Xiao Sheng, do you want to know?"

Ye Sheng nodded, but quietly complained in his heart.

Of course I want to know, but my great-grandfather is still keeping it a secret at this juncture.

This is what Ye Sheng thought in his heart and said so.

But you definitely can't say everything that's in your heart. Of course you have to change the words, as long as the meaning remains unchanged.

"Of course I want to know, great-grandfather, just tell me now."

It was a rare occasion for Ye Sheng to act coquettishly in front of her great-grandfather. The old man was obviously very fond of Ye Sheng's trick and answered Ye Sheng's words with a smile.

"The planet we live on is called Butterfly Star."

"Our idea at the time was very simple. Since we, the Butterfly Clan, live on this planet, we simply called it Butterfly Planet."

"Oh, I see."

Ye Sheng pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and his pair of golden eyes curved into crescent shapes.

But I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

Ye Sheng muttered to himself in a low voice.

"So his name is Diexing... Diexing..."

The name is Butterfly Star, not Earth. Ye Sheng couldn’t tell what the feeling was, a mixture of loss and expectation.

This emotion is complicated.

By the way, the world Xiaosheng lives in and this world are two different worlds.

There is no timeline relationship, nor is there future and past.

It is also an accident that the planet they live on is called Earth.
