母蜂的复仇

Du Yuc looked at He Xing with a resentful gaze. He Xing curled his lips and continued to write a few words on her palm. ‘More than ten years ago, Xia Ju was healing someone on a battlefield. At that time, I went to deliver weapons and saw her from afar. However, I didn’t know who she was at that time. I haven’t seen her since.’

As soon as He Xing finished writing, Du Yue started counting with her fingers. He Xing was already 35 years old. A dozen years ago, he was only in his 20s. At that time, Xia Ju could already heal people on the battlefield. How old was she now? No matter how Du Yue looked at her, she felt that she had just become an adult.

‘Are you curious about her age?’

Du Yue blinked. ‘Yeah, do you know?’

‘Someone on the battlefield mentioned that she had been a doctor for at least

50 years.’

Du Yue was shocked. How many years? Du Yue’s eyes were filled with disbelief. She only felt that He Xing was making things up.

Xia Ju’s face was flawless with no signs of wrinkles. Coupled with her superior figure, who would believe that she was at least 60 years old this year? She had been practicing medicine on the battlefield for decades. It was impossible for her to be able to treat illnesses as soon as she was born, right? Even if Xia Ju was a god and had the ability to go to the battlefield to save people when she was in her teens, she would be at least 75 years old now… Du Yue’s eyes widened.

She thought that Xia Ju had just come of age, but she was already 70 or 80 years old. She could not believe the age difference. He Xing’s fingers gently brushed across Du Yue’s palm, pulling Du Yue out of his thoughts. “Actually, this is normal. High-level evolvers in the galaxy can live to at least 300 years old. If this is the case, a person in their 70s or 80s is indeed a young man. Moreover, you can only tell the age of most high-level evolvers when they’re over 200 years old.”

With He Xing as an example, Du Yue could slowly accept this statement.

After all, He Xing was already 35 years old, and he still had an extremely bright and youthful face. When others saw him, they would think that he was only in his early 20s. Du Yuc could not help but reach out to touch her face. Would she be like Xia Ju in the future? Not aging for three to five years was not considered a big problem, but if her face did not change at all after eight to ten years, the people around her would probably notice something strange, right? It seemed that the two of them could not stay in Sunshine Courtyard for long. Once Xia Ju’s matter was settled, they would leave.

Whether it was a friend or a relative, it was impossible for them to accompany each other for a lifetime. This was something that Du Yue had long known and accepted, so she did not feel very bad. It was just that the road ahead was vast and she was a little hesitant. Not only that but the longer they stayed away, the more they could not return to the first base. Other people who wandered outside would experience more and more vicissitudes. Not only were she and He Xing unscathed, but they were also the same as before. Who would not find it strange to see them?

They could only go forward without going back. ‘Don’t worry too much. Maybe I’ll be able to find a way back to Interstellar in the future. At that time, we’ll buy a spaceship and I’ll bring you to my hometown to take a look.’

Feeling each word He Xing wrote on her palm, the hesitation in Du Yue’s heart disappeared. It did not matter whether they could return to the first base or not. As long as they were together, they could go anywhere. They had only gone to three of the ten official bases. They could still go to the other official bases.

Du Yue stopped letting her imagination run wild and asked He Xing, ‘You recognized Xia Ju, so did she recognize you too? Will she find a chance to talk to you?’

He Xing shook his head. ‘I don’t know. We’ve only met once. I don’t know her personality.’

Xia Ju’s temper and personality? A person in her 80s was not on guard at all and casually displayed her special ability. She could not stop herself from helping when seeing an injured person.

It could probably only be said that she did as she pleased.

Seeing that it was lunchtime, Du Yue and He Xing stopped chatting and got up to prepare lunch. Without An Wu, today’s lunch was much simpler. Of course, other than Xia Ju’s portion, they had to make enough for the three of them. There were fresh beef ribs today, so Du Yue made black pepper beef ribs, spicy chicken, and a salad. The vegetables used in the salad were all very good. They were green and fresh. There was not a single bit of soil. It was obvious that they were grown in water.

Water cultivation was troublesome to begin with. It also required various nutrient solutions. The prices of fruits and vegetables produced by water cultivation were definitely much higher than ordinary ones. Not only were the prices high, but they were also very difficult to buy. Only people like An Wu, who had status and power in the base, could get them..
