Crossing the Stars: My Major General Husband and I Are Evenly Matched
Chapter 18 Staying on the Hill
The room was so quiet at first that you could hear a pin drop. Then, no matter what people were thinking, everyone looked happy and joyful, and everyone was saying blessings.
However, Song Yanyu could tell from the looks in everyone's eyes that her life in the military district would not be very smooth in the future.
But so what? Here, Jing Xiao is a major general. As long as she and Jing Xiao have a good relationship and as long as others don't provoke her, she can still stay here.
As Song Yanyu and the others sat down, the originally quiet scene became lively again.
There were also several people sitting at Song Yanyu's table.
With a cold look, you can see that these people have high military ranks. The men are wearing dark green shirts and are handsome and elegant, while the women are wearing colorful gauze skirts and are delicate and beautiful.
Jing Xiao held Song Yanyu's hand tightly and did not let go. He also introduced the people around him. Song Yanyu listened carefully and took notes.
These should all be Jing Xiao’s good friends and confidants.
really.
"Yanyu, this is the captain of the first team, Yu Sui."
"This is the captain of the second team, Kong Yu."
……
Four or five people were introduced in succession. Song Yanyu guessed correctly that these were Jing Xiao's confidants and good friends who grew up together.
It just so happened that after Jing Xiao graduated and was sent to this poor Mercury, they and his good friends from the same grade were also recruited along with him.
Three of the five are married, but they are probably newlyweds and have no children.
In the interstellar age, for unknown reasons, very few children were born.
It’s not that humans don’t like children, but that the fate has not arrived.
Perhaps it is because of the interstellar age that most humans have acquired superpowers and extended their lifespans.
There is always a trade-off.
For humans who have awakened their special powers, their lifespan will first be extended from 50 to years, and then each level up will add another years to their lifespan.
At the beginning, humans were very happy. After all, they had superpowers, military power, and increased lifespan. Where could they find such good things?
But as the years and centuries passed, problems arose that were difficult for humans to avoid noticing.
The higher the level of the warrior, the less likely he is to have offspring, especially those above S+, who find it almost impossible to have offspring of their own.
Only those below C+ are unaffected by supernatural powers.
Women, on the other hand, are not affected by superpowers. On the contrary, if they have superpowers, there is a high probability that they will give birth to children with superpowers. Moreover, because women have superpowers, they are healthier and suffer less pain when giving birth.
In a word, with the advent of superpowers, in the interstellar era, the principle of respecting the strong is even more firmly upheld.
However, these are only done secretly or outside the safe zone.
Living in the safe zone is subject to legal restrictions. People with special abilities cannot attack ordinary people at will. Once discovered, they will be imprisoned at the very least, and at the worst, they will be exiled to a marginal planet to mine for the rest of their lives.
After Jing Xiao introduced both parties, he pulled Song Yanyu and asked Song Ci and Sun Piaopiao to sit down and eat quickly.
Song Yanyu and his crew drove for about eight hours, and finally arrived on Mars when they could no longer hold back.
Mars is indeed as its name suggests, and it lives up to the word "fire". I don't know what others feel, but as soon as Song Yanyu got out of the car, he was hit by waves of heat.
When Song Yanyu and the others arrived, Wen Lan sent the newsletter about the climate here. Song Yanyu then simply wore a pair of thin trousers under his coat. When he arrived here, he just had to take off his thick clothes.
"It's too hot. Compared to Mercury, it's like two different worlds." Sun Piaopiao stood beside Song Yanyu and said, pinching her waist.
Song Yanyu had only been standing outside for five minutes when she felt sweat on her forehead. She unconsciously fanned herself a few times and replied to her mother, "Yeah, but it's a good thing this way. It's autumn now, so there must be a lot of ripe things here. As long as we don't slack off during this period, we will definitely be able to collect a lot of supplies."
Based on the climate of Mars, Song Yanyu roughly deduced that this place is similar to the southern part of China.
Song Yanyu made up for a lot of things that appeared in these places at home.
Now the military airships they were riding on were parked on a relatively open hill covered with sand. There were no other plants around except for a few scattered drought-resistant weeds.
Jing Xiao and his team accidentally stumbled upon Mars while on a mission. In fact, there are many planets discovered by humans, but many of them have only been marked and have not yet been explored.
This time on Mars, Jing Xiao and his friends accidentally broke in and found that apart from the high temperature, there were no other large dangerous beasts here.
And now that the winter season is approaching, Jing Xiao directly reported to the royal family and asked everyone to join in.
A planet is very large, and what Jing Xiao and his team have explored is just the tip of the iceberg, so exposing this matter is the only solution. They really can't eat such a large planet, but they can't just cover it up and give up the supplies on this planet.
So, in the end, a meeting was held and it was unanimously voted that it would be better to make the matter public, and then all the major families knew about it.
"You all stay here now and don't run around. The Major General has already sent people to scout the surrounding area. If anyone disobeys orders and anything happens, the army will not be responsible. I hope everyone will actively cooperate."
Song Yanyu looked at the soldier who was speaking. She knew this person. He was the captain of the fourth team, Yu Shi, who Jing Xiao had introduced in the restaurant. He was at the A+ level.
Suddenly, complaints were heard all around.
"Why is it like this? We're just sitting here, unable to do anything. Seriously, they can't even finish the exploration in advance. It would be much better if we could just gather supplies right away when we get here."
"That's right, now we are staring at each other,"
"Yes, yes, the weather here is too hot. Look, my face is sunburned. I shouldn't have come here if I had known."
Song Yanyu looked over when she heard the voice. The person who spoke was a petite and cute girl. She was wearing a cherry blossom pink waist-hugging dress and a pair of small pearl leather shoes. Her face was red in the sun and a thin layer of sweat appeared on her forehead. She was really a picture of a beautiful and innocent girl.
Most of the men were soldiers in the army, so except for the soldiers of the fourth team, the people of the other three teams had already gone to other places to explore the land.
Most of the people who stayed here were women and children.
After Yu Shi finished speaking, he went straight back to the makeshift office tent, ignoring the complaints of these people.
Only a circle of soldiers were left here. Finally, everyone realized that what they said was nonsense and no one paid any attention to them. Instead, they felt hotter and their mouths drier because of talking, so they all stopped talking.
Three or five people go together to find a cool place, or return to the tent.
