Ch54.2 - People Work Hard When Spring Comes Early (Part Two)

Editor: Alysia

Sweet potatoes grown for seed production grew quicker than sweet potatoes grown for consumption. Sweet potato seeds might also be sowed when the temperature was appropriate. Cui QiChao only eats a bit of it, and the rest gets planted in the field. Along the ridge, high and low metal rods or tree branches were inserted, and light bulbs of various sizes and shapes were strung. Cui QiChao collected them to replicate a bright atmosphere over the long night and offer illumination for sweet potatoes.

After the sweet potato sprouts grew, he could cut the sweet potato seedlings and cut them into cuttings. In three or four months, he could harvest a large amount of sweet potatoes. With ordinary storage, he could store them for a few months. If the freezing technology was used, Cui QiChao would basically not lack sweet potatoes here.

Of course, the premise was that sweet potatoes could be safe until then.

After spring came, all kinds of animals on the unmanned planet became active again. Because this place was desolate, there were not many kinds of animals, but there was a kind of bird that often haunted and wanted to peck Cui QiChao’s crops. When he didn’t pay attention, the bird pecked several lettuce leaves. 

Cui QiChao found Pythagoras, tied metal pipes and cloth on it, and let it walk around the ridge to drive away the birds.

“I can’t listen to you. You’re not my master,” Pythagoras said as he wandered around. “But I can’t help you if you have to tie things on me, can I?”

Cui QiChao didn’t kill all the birds. As long as these birds didn’t peck his vegetables, he would put aside the leaves that were originally used for compost and let them peck. At first, these birds flew away when they saw Cui QiChao. But slowly, as Cui QiChao scattered the lettuce, they would peck at a side.

Cui QiChao thought to himself that he couldn’t stand having his vegetable leaves pecked, but he couldn’t capture the birds either. In the future, he might just circle an area where the birds could fly about. After a lengthy period of feeding, the birds might be domesticated, and he would have meat to eat…

Cui QiChao may also take a break and spend more time outside thanks to Pythagoras and the sunshine simulation technology. He went to the lake he discovered in the winter. In the winter, the layer of ice was too thick. It was now spring, but only a big portion of the ice at the edge of the lake had melted.

Cui QiChao led XiaoBai to go fishing by the lake this time. It had been a few months since he last ate meat.

When spring arrived, the fishes were also very hungry. After a while, Cui QiChao’s fishing rod floated and jolted. XiaoBai quickly jumped onto Cui QiChao’s leg and stared at him while he was pulling the rod up.

Cui QiChao’s fishing line was retrieved from space debris. It was fused with other materials to allow it to carry big items and was exceedingly durable. The underwater fish was quite powerful, but because of the high quality of the fishing line, it didn’t break.

Cui QiChao directly wrapped his hands around his clothes, clasped the line in his hands, and dragged up a fat-headed fish of 30 or 40 kilograms, based on his visual estimation. In fact, it was a little inappropriate to describe it as fish. This aquatic animal also had six small claws that had not degenerated completely. Its head was big and round, its scales were small, its color was gorgeous, and it seemed to shine in the sun.

There was one good point about XiaoBai: he was not interested in raw fish. Instead, he hated the smell of the fat-headed fish. There was no vaccine or anti-parasitic medication here, so Cui QiChao didn’t dare to give it raw food. 

Carrying the fat-headed fish back, Cui QiChao dragged it into the bathroom to wash it, and then began to chop the fish.

The fish was so big that it couldn’t fit on the chopping board in the kitchen. He had to chop it up in the bathroom. Cui QiChao sat on the wooden stilt he picked up and cut off the fish’s head. The blood was black at first, and slowly turned dark red after contact with the air. Suddenly, he saw XiaoBai as it rushed into the bathroom and meowed shrilly.

Cui QiChao’s heart clenched, and he went out with a knife. He saw that the closed door of the space station had opened. A tall man stood at the door and saw Cui QiChao’s hands covered with blood and there were some splashed on his face. Cui QiChao even carried a knife in one hand. His face immediately changed.

“Little cousin, what are you doing?” The man came over and joked, “Are you so stubborn that you want to commit suicide?” 

The man could open the door of the space station. Adding onto the fact that the way he called Cui QiChao, Cui QiChao immediately understood the identity of this man in his heart. The knife he was carrying turned in his hand, and he rushed to the other party’s neck in an attempt to immobilize him.

However, the other party reacted quickly. He immediately dodged to the other side, and reached out to get the weapon at the back of his waist. However, Cui QiChao was one step faster than him. The ray gun was already in his other hand and directly shot through the other party’s wrist.

This person, probably Cui QiChao’s elder cousin, obviously didn’t think he would do this. Cui QiChao didn’t even say “don’t move”. He shot through his cousin’s wrist bone. It was accompanied by a burning feeling, causing his cousin to almost faint on the spot.

Cui QiChao came forward, first tied the man’s hand. Then, he brought the medicine box, wrapped the treatment bandage around his wound twice. In passing, he searched his cousin and scoured the bits and pieces of weapons on his cousin. 

It was then that his elder cousin felt slightly better. Then his cousin felt that his shoulder was twisted to the back by Cui QiChao just now, and it hurt a lot. Finally, he had the time now to ask with a white face, “Shit, where did you get the weapon?”

XiaoBai stepped out quietly and squatted down to look at him.

Cousin: “Fuck, where did you get the cat?”

Beep. 

Cui QiChao’s cooking box rang. This time, he had cooked sweet potatoes.

Cui QiChao opened the cooking box with one hand and pulled out the sweet potato.

Cousin: “Fuck. Where did you get the sweet potatoes?!”

“Thank you for opening the door.” Cui QiChao said the first sentence slowly. It was really inconvenient for him to go in and out through the sunroof everyday. It was also at this time that he remembered that this person should have appeared in the virtual plane’s data. This person was a relative of his, Cui Hu. 

“Those outside… could it be that you planted them too?” Cui Hu said later. As soon as he got out of his spacecraft, he saw the neat and tidy farmland, but he didn’t think it had anything to do with his cousin and thought it was other people farming on the unmanned planet. Of course, he was also worried about whether the space station would be invaded, so he came in carefully.

It had been several months since the last delivery of supplies. The family calculated that the supplies should be used up at this time, but they didn’t hear from his little cousin. They sent him to observe what happened to the cousin. Did he repent? They didn’t give him a suppressant. He suffered through several periods of estrus harshly. During the estrus period, ordinary omegas would have long succumbed. If his cousin really wouldn’t want to concede, they would just kidnap him back to brainwash him.

Who knew, he would be subdued by his cousin as soon as he came in…

Cui Hu looked at his cousin and had a cold expression as he looked at the things his cousin snatched from him. He thought, was this lad so stifled here that he became a pervert? 

“I calculated that there should be people from home coming to look for me soon,” Cui QiChao said slowly, taking out a small gadget from the drawer and played with it with his hands.

“Little cousin, how did you get out?” His cousin went out and could hold on until now, but he didn’t understand how his cousin got out, and there was no sign that the door had been opened.

“I got out from the sunroof.” Cui QiChao said. He stuck the adjusted gadget on Cui Hu’s neck. Several thin tubes immediately protruded from the chassis and tightly stuck to Cui Hu’s skin. Then Cui QiChao checked Cui Hu’s hand again.

Cui Hu wasn’t aware of what Cui QiChao did. The analgesic effect of the treatment bandage was good. He only felt numbness in his wrist injury. Even so, since his bones were injured, he must allow it to recover for at least half a month. 

He twisted his neck, “What’s this?”

Cui QiChao: “An electric collar.”

Cui Hu: “……”

Cui Hu said with a pale face, “Are you kidding me?” 

“Why would I be kidding?” Cui QiChao had long been prepared. If the family wanted to force him to concede, he also made some large bombs and hid them in the space garbage outside. That was why he collected weapons in addition to food. The one strapped on Cui Hu was originally used for him to throw towards enemies, but he altered it temporarily moments ago, because he didn’t expect that he would subdue his elder cousin.

Cui Hu looked at him for a few seconds, but he couldn’t see any giveaway expression. He looked to be slightly at wit’s end and argued, “I advise you to let me go! Why are you insisting on throwing a tantrum? Do you really want to stay here for the rest of your life without going back? Just concede and choose a better alpha. When someone back at home discovered that something happened to me, wouldn’t they grab you back home and teach you a lesson?”

Cui QiChao was unmoved and even smiled at him.

Cui Hu thought of the electric collar on his neck, “……” 

He took a deep breath and repressed his anger, “Haven’t you suffered enough here? An omega that didn’t have a suppressor and survived through the estrus forcibly… Hmph, don’t say it doesn’t matter. How many times have you endured that feeling?”

Beep, beep.

There seemed to be something ringing in Cui Hu’s items. He sighed and instructed, “Anyway, go to the aircraft first and help me bring the inhibitor here. It’s time for me to inject the inhibitor. It’s inside the bag hanging next to the hatch.”

Cui QiChao stood up and was ready to wash his hands and wipe the floor. He said faintly, “I’ll get it for you when you’re in a rut.” 

Cui Hu was shocked and silly. “No, I didn’t intend to scheme against you with this. It’s really my special period now!”

He saw and judged that it didn’t seem Cui QiChao was joking. His expression suddenly changed and he said in a gloomy manner, “Cui QiChao, once my injected inhibitor failed and my pheromones burst, do you think you will not be affected? Do you think you would still be conscious to help me get the inhibitor?” 

Cui Hu laughed softly and said, “…I’m not afraid to commit incest. But do you dare to?”

There was the sound of rushing water. Cui QiChao was already washing his hands and cutting fish. Cui Hu waited coolly for a long time and didn’t wait for a response.

In the silent room, only XiaoBai licked his claws and spit a mouthful of saliva.
