Qizi

Cold comes and summer goes, autumn goes and spring comes, as the plant illustrations accumulated on the case become thicker and thicker, time has slipped to the seventh year when Jing Yu was adopted by Ling Xing.

Ling Xing, who was in his infancy in 83, was standing in front of the table, arranging the hand-painted drawings one by one, when he glanced out of the window and someone was poking his head.He smiled knowingly, then opened the window, and shouted to the person in the tree, "Come in."

With a movement of the branches outside, Ling Xiao jumped in. It wasn't the first time he had come to this room, but the last time he came, it was obvious that the bed hadn't been equipped with a top bunk.

"The lone star is here? Where are the others?"

"You also know?" Ling Xing was not very surprised, "He went out with the army and will not come back for a while. How long are you going to stay this time? You might as well stay here."

"I don't know," Ling Xiao leaned carelessly against the table, and picked up the sketches casually to read, "The longest I've stayed in an era is three years, and the shortest I've stayed in is only a few seconds. When will it disappear once."

Looking at the fallen leaves outside the window, Ling Xing felt emotional, "It's the autumn of 3999 in the new calendar, and the first time I saw you was the spring of 3949. For me, 50 years have passed, but for you In other words, we may have separated only a moment ago."

"Well," Ling Xiao sized him up, "You look much better than the last time I saw you. Is there anything happy that happened in the past 50 years?"

Ling Xing lowered his head and looked at the drawing in his hand with a smile, "To be precise, it happened only in recent years. I wanted to help a person in need, but I didn't expect that the person who got help in the end was myself. It is rumored that Lone Star Difficult to get along with, but in my eyes, he is simple and pure, and every day I get along with him, my soul seems to be washed away by divine grace, full of incredible peace."

"Has he ever painted you?" Ling Xiao raised the drawing and asked.

Ling Xing was surprised, "No, he can only draw plants, I have never seen him draw people."

"Try it, how does he know if he hasn't painted?"

"You don't know something, do you?"

"Well," Ling Xiao looked away, "With the professional ethics of a time traveler, I can't spoil it."

"Alright," Ling Xing gave up asking, "What about the future, I still want to keep some mystery, but you won't keep secrets about the past, right?"

Ling Xiao asked casually, "What's the matter?"

Ling Xing Surong, "Actually, it wasn't the first time you saw me last time, right?"

Ling Xiao's movements froze, and his whole body froze.

"You were also at the scene of the Ember Event in 3926."

Ling Xiao put down the drawing stiffly, thinking about how to explain it to him.

"When the commotion started, the students who lost control first started attacking each other. The scene was chaotic and crowded. I was dragged to a dead corner of the room. This action saved my life. I was too nervous at the time. , I didn’t notice who pulled me at all, I just avoided the whole process trembling.”

Ling Xiao was silent.

"This matter has troubled me for many years. It wasn't until you appeared in front of me that I gradually figured out the whole thing."

"No, listen to me, you weren't awakened at the time, even if I didn't appear there, nothing would happen to you."

"But I may be awakened by hormones, or affected by other people's fighting, but I hide there, unscathed."

Ling Xiao said seriously, "I know what you want to say, you want to say, since I have the ability to appear there, why didn't I prevent that incident from happening. The fact is, in this 4000-year travel journey, no matter what I do Whatever happens, history will proceed according to the original track, even if I intervene, it will become a preordained part of the process, and it may even become the cause of the ember event."

"The era we live in is the era in which I have returned to the past. Every gear is tightly intertwined, and I can't shake any of them. I am also very saddened about the ember event, and I watched the whole process just like you. But I can't change it, it's an established fact in history, it's not me, it's history that keeps you alive."

Ling Xing sighed, and his serious expression softened, "To be honest, when I first realized this, I was full of resentment towards you. But as time went by, I also slowly figured it out, it's you For that reason, no one can change history."

Only then did Ling Xiao feel relieved, "Then I should be glad that I skipped 50 years in one jump and gave you enough time to figure this out."

"After all, you are me and I am you, how could I not believe in myself?"

Ling Xing looked at Ling Xiao carefully, from the eyebrows to the nose and lips, "It's the first time I know that I have an afterlife, and I am also incredible. I never thought that one day, I will hold an adult ceremony with others."

"Although until now, I still feel scared when I mention these four words, but for you, I think I will face it bravely, no matter who it is."

-

The return of Jing Yu is approaching, and major news broke out in the country. The tree of souls, which has been produced at an extremely slow rate for thousands of years, has unexpectedly produced a tree species like never before.

The birth of this precious tree species stirred up waves for a while. Some scientists assert that this is a symbol of the aging of the tree of souls. The new tree species is to ban the old tree with a short lifespan, and the new tree will grow more. Soul, this is an opportunity for Tianxiu population to recover.

However, the military did not think so. For many years, they have been subject to the pull of the soul. The battlefield that could have been infinitely expanded, but had to stop at the brilliant star. For the ambitious militant faction, they were undoubtedly shackled by shackles. .

The appearance of tree species gave them another possibility. They could go to a remote place to plant trees, and then build a lighthouse. At that time, they could open up a brand new colony and further expand the scope of action.

This was originally a secret conspiracy of the military department, but it was revealed by someone, and it became known to the world. The church with the concept of avoiding war stood up righteously and opposed the military department's infinitely expanding ambitions.

Contradictions were on the verge of breaking out. The most serious conflict in the history of the military and the church occurred. Believers organized demonstrations to protest this behavior. In the process of suppression, the military inevitably clashed with the people, and the relationship between the two sides quickly became fierce.

Ling Xing knew that this was a period of time for the bishop to worry about, as he called to comfort him, but the other party was forced to hang up in a hurry without saying a few words.Leading the entire church to stand against their own master, if it is not as strong as the bishop's heart, it may be difficult for ordinary people to do it.

Although Ling Xing is also paying attention to the progress of the situation from time to time, he has something more to worry about in his heart. Fortunately, Ling Xiao stayed for a long time this time, and spent some waiting with him, making the time not so long.

Jing Yu returned soon, with more seeds, Ling Xing happily planted them, and later wanted to introduce Ling Xiao to Jing Yu, but he could not be found anywhere.

Is it possible to wear it again?Ling Xing thought that at this speed, he would soon be able to return to his own time and reunite with the person he missed.

Since it was a good thing, Ling Xing happily put it aside, and greeted Jing Yu to take a bath and eat, and the two of them went to bed after reading the book as usual.

It's just that there was one more person in the room, and Ling Xing slept more soundly than usual, until he was woken up by a voice from the upper bunk in the morning.

"Ling Xing, I'm sick."

Ling Xing slowly recalled this sentence in a daze, and realized that it was probably because the book he read last night was "learned and used" again, so he couldn't help but find it funny.

"I have told you many times that not everything in the alien's book is applicable to us. We are Tianxiu people and we will not get sick."

Jing Yu jumped down from the upper bunk.

"But I'm really sick."

He pulled up his trousers in front of Ling Xing, and the vigorous desire that belonged to young people immediately popped out unwillingly.

"Oh no," Ling Xing almost fell down. He turned his head to the side extremely uncomfortably, and at the same time rushed out of bed in a panic, and almost tripped over the quilt.

"No, no, no," he declined Jing Yu's kindness to help him, not knowing where to look, "You, you pull up your pants first."

While Jing Yu was pulling up his trousers, Ling Xing also found out the tranquilizer he was using from the drawer, grabbed Jing Yu's arm with a red face, and hit him hard, with such force that even he was frightened But Jing Yu didn't even frown.

"You're not sick, it's... well, what is it?" Ling Xing blushed and lowered his head. He really didn't know anything about how parents of other races educate their children about sex.

But when the initial panic gradually subsided, Ling Xing held his hand again with mixed feelings. Is it gratifying that the child I have raised for so long is finally ready to grow up?Is it moved?Or reluctant?Or all kinds?

Jing Yu watched the other party inject herself with the injection that Ling Xing had been using all the time, and did not let go of his hand until the injection was over, wondering what kind of emotion he could not understand.

"What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?" He habitually touched the other person's chest again.

"I'm not uncomfortable, I'm just..." Ling Xing lowered his head, and suddenly thought of a terrible fact. If Jing Yu's awakening was reported to the military department, they would immediately send someone to take him out of here, and then train him into a real combat weapon.

After thinking of this, Ling Xing had a bold idea in his heart, he held Jing Yu tightly with both hands, "Listen to me, nothing happened to you today, that incident was an accident, and it won't happen again in the future, And don't mention it to anyone."

Jing Yu didn't understand, but he had always trusted Ling Xing unconditionally, so he nodded at his request.

Ling Xing, who was in a complicated mood, turned and left the bedroom, thinking in his mind that when Jing Yu came here, he was a baby for 2 years, and now 7 years have passed. According to the average awakening age of Tianxiu people, he awakened a year earlier than ordinary people.

Well, at least this year is something he can try his best to hide, even if it's just a year, it's better than losing him today.

He walked quickly into the church, clasped his hands before the statue and knelt down, praying silently.

-God, please forgive my lies, but just thinking that he will be taken out of here, killed endlessly under the control of the military, with the blood of innocent people on his hands, I don't care, no matter what They didn't want to let him go.

Ling Xing is repenting with the most pious heart, but he never imagined that a conspiracy is quietly happening far away from here.

"Now the voices of the people are getting louder and louder. If we continue to let them go on like this, I am afraid that the future really cannot be left under our control."

"Ridiculous fools," Long Yin sneered, "I don't even think about it, how many of the resources they are using now are not from the regular tribute from the falling stars. With the productivity of Tianxiu's current population, we can't be self-sufficient at all."

"In my opinion, if they cut off their supplies for a certain period of time, they will know the importance of falling stars to us."

"I'm not worried about those foolish people." Long Yin switched the positions of his legs, "I'm afraid that our Marshal won't stand firm and will be persuaded by the bishop of his family, and he can't even control his own son , It's really..." He shook his head slightly contemptuously.

"If this matter drags on, it will only lead to long nights and more dreams. In my opinion, we should find a way to implement our plan as soon as possible. If the plan is successful, no matter what happens outside, they will not be able to change the fact that has already happened. Moreover, when the people After enjoying the benefits of this program, it will definitely turn to understand what the military is doing."

"What do you think we should do?" Long Yin asked with squinted eyes.

"In fact, anyone who has seen the tree species knows that its appearance is very ordinary, and it is undoubtedly the same as a peach pit. We replaced it with a fake one to appease the people, and then secretly sent people to plant the real one, so that the clothes will be seamless."

"It's a good way," Long Yin pinched his chin, "but where do we plant it?"

The staff called up the star map, "The longest distance that the Tianxiu people can reach is the Huangpian star. If we plant trees on the Huangpian star, we will use this as the center of the circle to expand the range of action with a radius of 35200EAU. At that time, The planets we can set foot in can be expanded to the Orchid Star, which is [-] EAU away from here."

Long Yin listened to his words with a smile on his face, "Really, I have a better suggestion, if we directly plant the trees here," he turned the Lansu star, "we can put our The scope of action is directly expanded to [-]."

The staff officer looked at the spinning Lansu star in puzzlement, "However, with our ability, it is impossible to reach the Lansu star."

Long Yin smiled meaningfully, "You have forgotten one person."

The other party quickly searched in his mind, and finally guessed what Long Yin was referring to, "You mean... Lone Star?"
