Disguised as a man, she returned to the military academy and was forced to study again.

Although the amount was not much on the first day, the sticky feeling under her body still made her very uncomfortable.

So Yan Qi became a bit lazy.

When Ji Li came back, she was looking down and playing with a flower in her hand.

When Yan Qi saw Ji Li coming back and throwing away the flowers, he stood up and said, "You're back!" His handsome face was filled with unconcealable happiness.

"Yeah." Ji Li walked a little closer, reached out and took the fallen leaves off the boy's shoulder, and said slowly: "I'm back safely. Now you don't have to think about revenge for me."

Yan Qi certainly wouldn't pick up on this. She cleverly skipped the topic: "Ji Li, what took you so long? Is this village a deserted one?"

"No, but you'll find out in a moment."

Yan Qi saw that Ji Li was a little mysterious. Although he didn't know what he was up to, he still followed him into the village with trust.

This planet had long been ravaged by war, and most of the village's buildings bore the marks of bombardment, with replaced stone piling up around the houses. If even such a remote place suffered from the ravages of war, one could only imagine how restless other places must have been.

As soon as the two of them crossed a small fenced path, they could already hear the bustling sounds of people. Then, around a corner, Yan Qi finally saw the villagers gathered together. They were dressed in simple clothes, all with smiles on their faces, busy about something.

As soon as the two appeared, they were noticed by the villagers. A kind middle-aged woman put down her work and said to Ji Li enthusiastically,

"Young man, you're back so soon. Is this the companion you mentioned? Oh, he's so handsome."

After listening to this, Ji Li smiled gently and said, "Yes, this is the companion I was talking about."

People nearby also started to joke,

"You two are both so handsome, handsome guys! Not only are you good-looking, but you're also so lucky. You've caught up with good times. Our sky hasn't been this peaceful in a long time!"

"That's right, that's right! While it's safe, it's rare for us to get together to do something. Come on in and have some fun together!"

"Okay." Ji Li replied politely.

At this time, a man emerged from the crowd and led the way for them. Ji Li nodded gently, pulled Yan Qi along, and followed him inside.

It can be seen that Ji Li had already communicated clearly with the villagers here when he first arrived, so everyone's attitude towards them is so harmonious.

Yan Qi really seemed to be here to experience the local customs and culture. She didn't need to worry about anything and just had to follow Ji Li.

The friends here had never seen such pure golden hair before, and they all gathered around excitedly. A group of children followed them curiously like a string of small lanterns, chattering and asking questions.

"Brother Blonde, is your hair natural?"

"Yes."

"That's amazing! Big Brother Golden, you're so tall. How tall are you?"

"About one meter." Ji Li answered casually.

"Wow! I'm over 1 meter tall too! I'm as tall as the golden brother!"

"Me too, me too!"

"I'm already one meter tall. I'm as tall as the golden brother!"

"You're talking nonsense, I am!"

A group of children were arguing endlessly and quarreling angrily, with no one giving in.

Ji Li raised his hand to protect Yan Qi, fearing that his calf would be injured by the kick. At the same time, he lowered his head and patiently comforted these little radishes:

"Don't worry, don't worry, everyone is over 1 meter tall, just like me."

"Yeah! We're both the same height!"

"Yes, yes, I'm just over one meter tall!"

Yan Qi turned her head to look over, a little surprised. It was the first time she saw Ji Li like this, kind and charming.

The two walked forward for a distance, and the leading man brought them to a small house that was different from the other buildings.

A thin and gentle old man, twirling his beard, slowly came out to express his welcome. He was the chief of this small fishing village.

The people in the small fishing village were simple and honest. On a war-torn planet, there would always be refugees or children who had lost their loved ones. Everyone was used to seeing someone suddenly arrive in the village. They believed that anyone who came was a guest, and if they wanted to stay, they could.

But when the village chief saw Ji Li for the first time, he knew that this blond young man was definitely not a refugee, including the black-haired boy next to him.

In fact, everyone knows that these two neatly dressed, pure-blooded people must have extraordinary identities.

But Ji Li told them about his experience drifting at sea. After much hesitation, the villagers finally decided to accept them and agreed to let Ji Li bring his companions with him.

The villagers of the fishing village live by the sea and have a natural reverence for the ocean, the land and life. When the sea is stormy, the land is the only harbor for the fishermen.

So, facing the child who had just landed after drifting at sea, they could not refuse. Since they had accepted the other party, the village chief did not hesitate to arrange work for him. He cleared his throat and said:

"Welcome, young men! Today is a fine day, and one of the few quiet days on the planet. Our village will be hosting a wedding at noon today. It's been a long time since we've had such a grand event!"

As the village chief spoke, the girls beside him kept looking over. Their gazes were so intense that he had no choice but to pause. After a few glares and a few puffs of his beard, he suppressed the girls' passion and continued:

"But the church's roof is cracked due to the sonic attack a while ago, and needs repairs. You're all strong men, so follow the main force and cut the stone."

After hearing this, Yan Qi's gaze fell on the slightly cracked house behind him. There was indeed a small wooden sign hanging on the door frame, with the word "Church" engraved on it inconspicuously.

She couldn't help but raise an eyebrow; it had been a long time since she'd seen a church. In the interstellar age, everyone admired scientific civilization. People's lives were highly dependent on technology, and ordinary people constantly sought spiritual stimulation through technology, which greatly reduced the need for religious beliefs.

There are no decent churches on many planets nowadays, but it is surprising that a small church is still preserved in a small fishing village.

But before Yan Qi could react, Ji Li said gently:

"Village Chief, I can go, but he may not be able to. My companion has a leg injury and cannot perform gravity-dependent activities. He may need you to assign him a new job."

The village chief stroked his beard thoughtfully, then waved his hand and said to Yan Qi, "Since your legs are not convenient, go out with these girls to pick flowers! Weddings always need flowers to decorate them."

As soon as he finished speaking, the girls who were eavesdropping around could no longer hold back their words. Their eyes lit up and they became restless.
