wandering planet

Chapter 35 Virgil

Take a trip on Virgil, the lifeboat is almost full.

After eating and drinking, the few people continued to search for crabs and snails on the other side of Half Moon Island while the sky was still bright.

When everyone and all the harvest returned to the lifeboat, Pierre was worried: "It's so much heavier, it will consume a lot of fuel."

Lin Ni hit the nail on the head: "Do you want to eat?"

Pierre immediately surrendered: "Yes."

It was evening when we took off.

Michelangelo's huge half was still exposed on the sea, the light blue sea water was dyed red, and the pale sky also added a bit of blood.

Those unknown little white birds flew in groups in the air, and a huge fish leaped out of the water on the far boundary between the sea and the sky.It has sharp sword-like protrusions on its body, its whole body is gray-blue, and the wet fish skin reflects the late sunlight, giving off a dazzling golden-red color.

It didn't make a high jump, and quickly crashed into the water, splashing a huge visible wave.

The few people who were obsessed with the twilight on the lifeboat fell silent.

Judging by the size, the fish is estimated to be able to swallow three lifeboats in one gulp.

"..." Lin Ni concluded, "Song Junxing really has bad intentions."

But after the big fish dived into the bottom of the sea, the sea surface became calm again.As lifeboats got taller, so did Michelangelo.It flew higher than the little white sparrow, pierced through the clouds and the rays of the sun, and returned to its own route again.

Everyone stored all the fish, shrimp and crabs, and put the fresh water in the back cabin.Linney and Ovid squatted in the back cabin, barely able to get up from hunger.

"Didn't you eat two crabs, a bag of seashells and half a fish?" Linney rummaged through the trunk in the back cabin for food to satisfy his hunger. "Where did you put the compressed biscuits? Where's the bread?"

Jiang Che, who had already eaten these things, washed his hands, and returned to his room regardless of the two people who were feebly pawing at the food in the back cabin.Pierre and Tang Mo are currently on duty in the cab. He and Ovid are in the next round. After a busy day today, he needs to take a good rest and refresh himself.

Then ask Song Junxing carefully about the meat planet.

Jiang Che walked into his room.

After a while, he rushed out with a piece of clothing.

"Ovid, why are your clothes on my bed?"

Ovid, who had just snatched a compressed biscuit from Linney, raised his head: "I don't know."

After more than ten minutes, Jiang Che and Lin Ni realized what happened: they were going to live with Ovid and Pierre respectively.

"Sorry, I apologize to you." Tang Mo said, "This is my idea, but it is also the best way at present. There are too few places on the lifeboat to store fresh food. With so many fish, shrimps and crabs, if you don't After raising them, they were all dead and stinky before we reached the Black Sea. These are all reserve grains, and they are also bribes for Song Jun, so we can’t just waste them like this.”

"I live with Pierre." Jiang Che said, "Linney is with Ovid."

Linney demurred: "No, I'm going to share a room with Pierre. Ovid looks like the kind of guy who snores."

Ovid: "I won't!"

Jiang Che: "I can guarantee that he never snored when he fell asleep."

Linney: "Have you lived together before?"

Jiang Che: "When he was in Faust, he lived in my tool room."

Linney: "That's great. Continue to live together, I won't change."

Tang Mo raised his hand with a serious expression on the side: "How about this, Ovid can live with me. I don't mind."

Lin Ni and Jiang Che shouted at the same time: "No!"

Ovid was very wronged: "Tang Mo is not my type..."

"I don't believe you." Linney pointed at him and said, "What did you say that day that you forgot?"

I didn't say it again.But Ovid didn't dare to say these words, he looked at Jiang Che.Jiang Che was a little dissatisfied, but still threw the clothes to him: "Okay."

Before the two returned to the room, they heard Lin Ni criticizing Tang Mo behind his back: "You are a woman and he is a man, how can you say such things casually? Guys like Ovid are unreliable at first glance..."

"I'm talking nonsense!" Tang Mo said with a smile, "Ovid and Jiang Che are a couple, and everyone on Faust knows it."

Jiang Che immediately turned around, his veins bulging out of anger.With sharp eyes and quick hands, Ovid quickly pushed him into the room and closed the door behind his back.

"It's not a couple, it's not a couple..." He repeatedly comforted Jiang Che, "Tang Mo's brain, ordinary people can't understand, you know."

After Jiang Che was disturbed like this, he lost his sleepiness for a while.He stood in the middle of the room sulking for a moment, then turned and began to make his bed.

There is very little of Ovid, both in Faust and here.He had only two changes of clothes, some food from the back cabin, and a bedding and pillow.Tang Mo took all these to Jiang Che's room.Jiang Che remade the bed sheet and realized one thing: when he decided to apply for driving the lifeboat out of Faust, Ovid packed the luggage with him.But Ovid himself didn't have any details, and all the things he sorted back then belonged to Jiang Che.

"...This is your pillow." Jiang Che said, "I'm by the window and you are outside, is that okay?"

Ovid leaned against the wall, just finishing the compressed biscuit in his hand.

"I can sleep on the floor." He wiped his mouth, "There is heating, and the floor is not cold."

Jiang Che: "Sleep or not?"

Ovid showed hesitation, then frowned and quickly sat down on the bed.

Jiang Che pointed at the bathroom and yelled: "Go take a shower and sit on the bed!!! You've been soaking in the sea all day!!!"

After tossing for a long time, after Jiang Che and Ovid lay on the bed, both of them were tired.

But the tiredness of the body was no match for the excitement of the brain, and both of them were thinking about the vanguard ship they discovered today.

There is a small window in each room of the lifeship, and Jiang Che opened the shade, and they can see a star from a distance through the window, which is Michelangelo II in the planetary belt.

"Is the sun like that too?" asked Ovid suddenly.

He carefully kept a distance from Jiang Che.Jiang Che actually didn't believe in his heart that he had the guts to do something to him, it's just that when a person entered his territory, he had to give him some power first, to let him know that he didn't mean anything to him.

"The sun is about the same size as Michelangelo." Jiang Che recalled, "Actually, I'm not sure, I don't know their size."

Ovid was curious: "Isn't the earth in the solar system? People on earth don't know the size of the sun?"

"Many, many people don't know." Jiang Che replied in a low voice, "For us, the sun is the sun, rising and setting every day. Before it loses heat and goes out completely, it will always be a star that provides heat and light to the earth. But the size of it, that's not what we learn on a day-to-day basis."

This is very different from the educational task on Marseille.

The history of Marseille comes from the "Great Retreat". Apart from paying attention to Marseille, the Masai people who have experienced this long journey also pay attention to the popularization of the basic knowledge of the universe outside Marseille, especially the Alpha galaxy where Marseille is located.

Almost every child in Marseille has a wish, which is to be admitted to the Marseille Academy of Aeronautics and Astronautics, enter the Marseille fleet, and enter the universe from then on.

Only a very small number of them—those who are capable and have sufficient financial resources can enter the academy and become members of the fleet.

And it wasn't until they entered the academy that interstellar travel and the "Great Retreat" finally lifted the veil of romance, heroism and glory in front of them, revealing the cruelty inside.

Ovid was silent for a moment, and asked again as if unable to bear it: "What is the earth like?"

Jiang Che smiled: "It's very complicated, I can't explain it clearly."

"Tell me?" Ovid asked earnestly, "Is it interesting? Is it beautiful? As good-looking as Virgil?"

"...It's very beautiful." Jiang Che replied in a low voice.

The snow melted from the highest point will flow through the extremely vast continent and flow into the majestic ocean.

The hottest place and the coldest place have very different landscapes, they are all surrounded by water, the earth is a water planet.

But it is richer than Virgil: thousands of species live on rivers, mountains, seas and plains.They are transforming the earth.

It's been too far, and it's been too long.Jiang Che seems to have forgotten all the bad things, all he can remember is the mist on the river in his hometown, the fishing boats coming out of the mist, the boatmen who blew the whistle on the fishing boats, and the leftovers from the fishing boats when they sailed through the water Two white ripples.He took his younger sister Jiang Mu's hand, ran barefoot on the river embankment, and greeted the people on the fishing boat loudly like all the children.

The ripples faded away.The river water and fishing boats also disappeared.A distant and slender singing voice came faintly, and he was dazed for a moment before he realized: it was Tang Mo singing in the cab.

Ovid approached him: "How about I accompany you back to Earth?"

Jiang Che: "Aren't you going to snatch Song Junxing's ship and then leave?"

"Since you're leaving, it's the same wherever you go." Ovid said enthusiastically, "Let me follow you."

Jiang Che was filled with indescribable confusion and bewilderment.

He didn't know why Ovid wanted to come to him, why he wanted to express his interest in him openly.

I am a lackluster person, dull and boring, and have no interest in life.He looked at himself in the mirror many times when he washed his face, and he was also full of confusion: if Ovid liked men, if he only looked at his face, he should also like Lin Ni instead of himself.

The young man in the mirror has a pair of unwavering eyes. He seems to be only in his 20s this year, but he also seems to be hundreds of years old.

He didn't know there was anything about him that attracted Ovid.

"Why follow me?" he asked, "What do you like about me?"

Seeing that he didn't push him away, Ovid moved closer and closer.The light was on in the room, Jiang Che looked at him without teasing, he really didn't understand.

He reached out and brushed Jiang Che's hair on his forehead, Jiang Che frowned slightly.

The black hair slipped between his fingers, and Ovid suddenly lowered his head to kiss Jiang Che.
