Chapter 7
by"Hey! Over there! Stand still!"
"I am the head of Duocao Street, who allowed you to enter the Gobi without permission!"
The sun on the Dark Star is surprisingly venomous, scorching the Gobi Desert to a scorching heat wave, like a red-hot iron pan set on a dry wood fire, and you can smell the burning smell anytime, anywhere.
The person who spoke unceremoniously was in the backlight, and he couldn't see his real face from a distance. It wasn't until Que Qiu approached that he could clearly see that it was a middle-aged man in his early forties, and he was carrying a man half as big as him on his back.High denim bag.
He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a tall and straight figure, his clothes and denim bag are washed a little white, and there are many patches at the cutting line. He can tell at a glance that the living conditions should not be good.But the whole person was cleaned up very cleanly, his back was straightened, and he didn't look like a villain in terms of eyesight and temperament.
Queqiu's little radar didn't move, he could feel that the man in front of him was not malicious towards him, so he relaxed, put away the attack he was about to make, and stood obediently where he was while holding Mao Mao.
The man strode towards this side, and the strong wind blew up yellow sand everywhere under every step of his footsteps, almost submerging him entirely.
When he got closer, before Que Qiu could make a sound, the man asked in confusion, "...Omega?"
He seemed a little unsure, pulled away a little distance, looked Que Qiu up and down, his swarthy eyes were full of disbelief.
"He's so young and pretty..." Every feature of Queqiu fits the public's stereotype of Omega, but he still doesn't dare to draw conclusions.
After all, how could Omega, which should be heavily protected, appear on Dark Star.
It’s fine to appear on the Dark Star, but how could it appear in the deserted and dangerous Gobi Desert?
"Are you really an Omega?"
Que Qiu nodded slightly, as if he recognized his identity in this world: "Mmm..."
Before the words fell, the man's eyes widened instantly.First he looked at Queqiu, then at the sun in the sky, his eyes were full of shock, and he even raised his voice a bit: "This is the slum of the Dark Star, how could an Omega suddenly appear?!"
Now Queqiu is puzzled, is there no Omega in the slums?
As a newcomer, he naturally didn't know that not only the slums had no Omega, but even the main city of Dark Star didn't have many Omega.
Besides, this middle-aged man who claimed to be the head of Duocao Street had never seen such a young and beautiful Omega before, and he couldn't hide the shock at that moment.Stuttering, he couldn't see the previous vicious appearance at all.
The first thing that came to my mind was that I was distressed and muttered to myself: "How could Omega be exposed to the sun in the Gobi Desert like this? The person who brought you here must be shot."
While rambling, he rummaged through his backpack, and finally found a somewhat tattered black umbrella.
He originally wanted to pass it to Que Qiu, but when he saw the little Omega's skin as white as fat jade, and then looked down at his black, rough and chapped hands, and his shabby belongings, he immediately felt ashamed of himself.
So the umbrella that was supposed to be sent out immediately froze in mid-air because of hesitation.
Que Qiu saw the man's entanglement at a glance, and he took the black umbrella from his hand without hesitation, opened it and covered the heads of the three of them.
Maomao was just born, she was still a little timid, she pulled Queqiu by the corner of her clothes in fear, and half hid behind him.
But out of a child's curiosity, he boldly raised his face and looked at the strange uncle with a pair of big gray eyes.
The man was taken aback by Que Qiu's action, and after a long time, as if he had regained his soul, an embarrassing smile appeared on his tanned and reddish face.
"Ahem, um, don't joke, I, I rarely see an Omega like this, uh, so..."
"Ham, anyway, as long as you don't dislike me. Although that umbrella is eliminated in the main city, it can still protect against radiation. How can a delicate Omega like you be exposed to the sun without any protection?"Woolen cloth."
It's okay if he didn't say anything, but when he said it, Que Qiu belatedly realized that the sun on this planet was really different from the earth for him.
It was hotter and more intense, as if a huge, scalding fireball was hanging in the sky, evaporating all the water, making people have no doubt that if a pot of flowers and plants were placed under such a sun, it would not last half an afternoon.It will be tanned.
But the canary can almost be regarded as the most skinny and easy-to-raise variety of roses. It can adapt to no matter how extreme and harsh the environment is, so Queqiu didn't feel much discomfort.
He wasn't a real Omega, so naturally he wouldn't be as delicate and frail as the street leader thought, and couldn't even withstand the sun's radiation.
Seeing that it was about to enter noon, the street leader was worried that Queqiu would not be able to stand such a difficult environment, so he mustered up the courage to invite: "The wind and sand here are too strong, and it's not safe. Come back to Duocao Street with me first?"
He was actually very nervous, so guilty that he didn't even dare to look into Que Qiu's eyes, but he tried his best to straighten his chest, wanting to be more calm, afraid of being regarded as a timid bad guy.
Everyone wants to get the favor and favor of Omega, but for picky Omega, this favor and favor is not so easy to get.
The street leader originally thought that his proposal would not be accepted by the other party at all, but unexpectedly, that beautiful young Omega easily agreed to the request.
Que Qiu nodded, and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with leaving the middle-aged man opposite: "Then I will trouble you to lead the way."
Yang Shu was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to realize what Que Qiu had said.After a brief daze, he realized that Omega was willing to go with him, and he was overjoyed immediately, even stepping on the rough sand and stones, his steps were a little lighter, and the uncle in his forties was so happy that he looked like an excited man.child.
He hastily followed Que Qiu's wish and was half a body ahead of Que Qiu and Mao Mao, leading the way for them, without even noticing that half of his body was exposed to the intense solar radiation.
From time to time, he turned his head to look at Que Qiu, as if he was guarding a peerless treasure.
Queqiu keenly noticed that from the beginning when he thought he was an intruder's strength to the later transformation, after realizing that he was a so-called Omega, the street leader's attitude towards him seemed to be a little too cautious, compared to the one on the Elibez.Jinli has to be more cautious.
Maomao tugged at the corner of Laqueqiu's clothes uneasily, without saying a word, just looked at him with those big gray eyes flickering.
Queqiu paused, and rubbed the little guy's head with his free hand soothingly.
Only then did the street leader notice that Que Qiu was still holding an umbrella in one hand, and he stamped his feet angrily, and quickly snatched it up for Omega himself.
"I was too careless to let you hold an umbrella."
Queqiu froze, and wanted to take the umbrella back, but thinking about doing this might make the street leader even more disturbed, so he had no choice but to give up in the end.
On the way back, Queqiu learned that the street leader's name was Yang Shu, who was born in a slum and had worked hard in the Gobi of Dark Star for more than forty years. He was unanimously elected by the residents as the street leader, responsible for maintaining theThe law and order in this area - his attitude at the beginning was so
Poor, but also because some people have been wandering around the Gobi in the past few days, as if they were looking for something, but they are not good at first glance.And Queqiu just bumped into him, Yang Shu was afraid that Queqiu was also one of these people, so he stopped talking.
After introducing his name, he pointed to a small town not far away and said, "Duocao Street is in front of you, and you will be there in a few minutes' walk. Duocao Street is surrounded by the Gobi Desert, and you can see the main city from the front..The main city throws out a lot of supplies that they don’t need every month, and one of the jobs of me and many young guys on the street is to bring back the supplies that are still usable.”
As he said, he turned the black umbrella in his hand: "For example, this one was eliminated by them. Although it looks like an ordinary umbrella, it is just a little bulkier, but the effect of preventing galaxy radiation is not weak at all.".”
The radiation in this world is not the ultraviolet radiation that Queqiu thought at first, but the real pollution radiation that can induce genetic diseases and even kill people.
Yang Shu let out a long breath, and sighed: "Alas, the dark star is not like the capital star. It has a self-defense barrier in the face of galaxy radiation and super sun, and it can only be resisted by oneself."
In Yang Shu's mouth, galaxy radiation seems to be a terrible thing, so that he hates the sun of the dark star so much.But Queqiu remembered that when he saw the poplar tree for the first time, he didn't hold an umbrella either?
Regarding Queqiu's doubts, Yang Shu explained: "I am Beta. The radiation of galaxies brought by the sun, moon or cosmic storms is not that lethal to Beta and Alpha. But for a weak person like youAs far as Omega is concerned, it is a dangerous substance that is easily deadly."
Soft and weak?
Que Qiu slandered, where did he look soft and weak?
Yang Shu said so, and the hyena brothers also thought so. Earlier, Jinli and Felix treated him as fragile, both inside and outside.
He himself doesn't think he is weak, but he has only just cultivated human form, according to the human image, he is just a young man who has just grown up.
Not to mention, he looks completely non-aggressive, ignorant and beautiful.Even among his peers, he was relatively small and young.
It's just that he doesn't seem to like to laugh very much, and has a sense of distance from people, but this is not a big problem for the people of the empire.
After all, Omega has always been known for being coquettish and arrogant.Even a character like Queqiu who just likes to immerse herself in her own world and has a sense of distance from others is already considered an Omeg.
A is very easy to get along with.
Moreover, perhaps because of his excessively pure and penetrating blond hair and golden eyes, Queqiu looks more fragile than ordinary Omega, just like an expensive glass doll placed on the window, which makes people bear it when they get close to it.I couldn't help getting up cautiously, had to tiptoe in every gesture, even if was breathing too heavily, was afraid that it would frighten him.
Yang Shu is like this, except that he didn't see the misunderstanding clearly at the beginning, he can't be more careful in his attitude towards Que Qiu.
He moved again, trying to make Que Qiu completely covered under the umbrella, even if half of his body was reddened by the scorching sun.
Yang Shu complained: "This year's galaxy radiation seems to be more serious than previous years."
"What exactly does galaxy radiation mean?" Que Qiu asked.
Yang Shu didn't even think about it, and subconsciously replied: "More than a thousand years ago, a galaxy closest to the empire had a big explosion, and the overflowing black hole-level huge energy directly affected all planets in the empire.The empire was shrouded in a dark radiation crisis, and an unprecedented catastrophe ushered in without warning. It was that time, human genes were polluted and forced to change, and since then, the genetic disease that plagues countless people has occurred.”
It was only then that Queqiu suddenly realized, no wonder he felt that the aura of sunlight here was very thin, so thin that it was less than one-tenth of what it was on Earth.
He looked down at Mao Mao, the little guy's silver tentacles seemed to sense the sight from above, and shook happily.
If it wasn't for the fluffy eggshells to replenish the lost aura, Queqiu would have to absorb the aura from the dark star's sunlight to recover to its previous strength.
Yang Shu added: "However, although radiation has brought about terrible destruction and disasters, it has also given humans supernatural abilities and longer lifespans. It is uncertain whether it is a good thing or a bad thing."
"Anyway, whether it's the Dark Star or the Empire, Betas are the majority, and our genetic disease will not be too serious. How to save the powerful Alpha and some Omega from the abyss of genetic disease is up to the big shotsThe people of Duocao Street only hope that we can live in peace every day in the future."
Poplar, like most people, is just the most ordinary Beta, neither Omega's healing ability nor Alpha's toughness have much to do with him.
Like he said, it's hard to tell whether it's a good thing or a bad thing.
After the explanation, Yang
The tree seemed to ask inadvertently: "Huh? Why do you seem to know nothing?"
He was a little puzzled, what he said should be common sense that a three-year-old child would know.
Regarding this, Que Qiu could only say vaguely: "I come from a very distant planet, and I have never received any information from the empire."
In fact, his excuses can be easily dismantled, at least on the Elibez, so he kept his mouth shut when he was there, and he basically didn't speak unless necessary.
But Yang Shu has been confined to this small Gobi Desert since he was born. As the lowest layer of the Dark Star, he doesn't know or have any way to know the outside world. Coupled with his blind trust in Omega,It made him believe Que Qiu's explanation without thinking much at all.
"Well, then your hometown may be very lucky, maybe it's a planet that hasn't been radiated by galaxies." The old street leader looked at Queqiu with a bit of envy in addition to pity, and he never doubted it from the bottom of his heart.The truth of those words.
Needless to say, Yang Shu has already determined that Queqiu must be a black household without an imperial household registration, and had no choice but to hide in the Dark Star.
"Poor little Omega." He looked at Que Qiu with distressed and kind eyes.
Queqiu: "..."
Helplessly, he gave a soft "hmm".!
