Chapter 486 Can be cured
When the transmission stopped, the familiar white color came into view.
For a moment, Lu Youyou even doubted whether she had been teleported there and was still in the teleportation room.
However, the delicate floral scent filling the room proved that she was no longer in her original room.
"Didi dididi——"
An alarm suddenly went off inside the house, leaving Lu Youyou and her group somewhat bewildered.
The next second, the door was pushed open.
A whole group of people came in all at once.
The man at the head of the group was hunched over, holding a huge rose as a cane.
Upon seeing Lu Youyou, his eyes lit up with surprise.
"My lord, it really is you! I am Chief Bubble. Our language is too difficult to remember, so you can call me by my human name, Zhang Wuyou."
Lu Youyou raised a polite smile, neither warm nor cold.
"I'm here on someone's behalf."
"Did the former master give any instructions to the Bubble Clan?"
"Do not."
Lu Youyou took out a stone from her bag and handed it to Zhang Wuyou.
"this…"
Zhang Wuyou was a little confused, not knowing what the newly appointed official meant by giving him a big stone.
"Chieftain, this small protruding stone is Zhang Niannian's Seven-Colored Heart, and the larger stone is Baby, Zhang Niannian's child."
"At the last moment, the baby awakened the petrification skill and turned into a stone like this. Do you have a way to turn the baby back to normal?"
After hearing this, Zhang Wuyou burst into tears.
"It's actually Nian Nian, the most talented Nian Nian in the clan! She said she was going to work on a survival planet, but she disappeared without a trace after she arrived, and now she's turned into this!"
"Niannian, you've suffered so much! The Seven-Colored Heart has turned to stone, and you've even lost the scent of your people. I can't even smell you anymore, boohoo..."
Zhang Wuyou cried on the side, and the clansmen behind him cried along with him.
Anyone who didn't know better would think that Lu Youyou and her people had done something to this group of old, weak, sick, and disabled people.
Zhang Weimin stepped forward under Lu Youyou's worried gaze.
He first gave Lu Youyou a reassuring look before speaking to Zhang Wuyou.
“Brother Wuyou, we’re about the same age and even share the same surname, so I won’t hide my thoughts from you. Do you think there’s any chance Zhang Niannian can be resurrected?”
Zhang Wuyou looked up in bewilderment, tears still clinging to her face.
"Big brother? You're calling me big brother?"
Zhang Weimin was a little embarrassed: "W-what's wrong?"
Could it be that these planetary inhabitants with special talents look down on pure humans?
"I'm 430 years old this year, how about you?"
Zhang Weimin: "I...I'm almost fifty."
"According to human rules, you should probably call me ancestor."
Zhang Weimin: ...
Lu Youyou chimed in, "Clan Chief Zhang, if we calculate it by human years, you're equivalent to about sixty-five years old. Uncle Zhang can call you Big Brother."
Zhang Wuyou: "How is it calculated? Isn't it based on age? You live one year, and I live one year in real life. It's not a fake age where two seconds count as a year."
“According to mathematical proportions, and besides, it’s not good luck for Uncle Zhang to call you an ancestor. In human language, ancestors are never alive; they’ve died at least hundreds or thousands of years ago.”
"Oh—my poor Niannian, she gave birth to a child but had no way to survive, turning into a hard, unyielding stone!"
Lu Youyou thought Zhang Wuyou's thought process was very peculiar.
When Zhang Weimin comforted him, he kept harping on how Zhang Weimin addressed him.
Once the issue of addressing her was resolved, his emotions seamlessly transitioned back to the grief he had just felt, heartbroken over Zhang Niannian's passing.
Clearly, Zhang Weimin thought the same way.
He stood still, took two deep breaths, and then went forward to comfort her again.
“Brother Wuyou, since Niannian cannot be resurrected, do you think Baobao can be resurrected? He still had a breath before he petrified himself.”
"Really? But why can't I smell the scent of his people?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Wuyou thought of something.
Do you know who Niannian had her child with?
Zhang Weimin didn't know whether he should speak or not, and glanced back at Lu Youyou.
Lu Youyou was also conflicted, unsure whether she should tell anyone.
She noticed that the Bubble Clan Chief didn't seem to welcome the baby. If he knew the baby was Zhang Niannian and Wei Tianning's child, he probably wouldn't have saved him.
“Sir, you must know who this child’s father is. Tell me! Whether the child’s father is a bee or a fish, I can accept it. I’m just curious why he doesn’t have the scent of his people.”
Lu Youyou felt that Zhang Wuyou had the right to know.
As the patriarch of the Bubble Clan, he had the right to know the identities of his juniors.
"He is the child of Zhang Niannian and Wei Tianning."
"What?! It's the traitor Wei Tianning?!"
As he spoke, Zhang Wuyou threw the stone in his hand away forcefully, as if he had touched something dirty.
Wang Qiao reacted quickly, caught the stone, and handed it back to Youyou.
"My lord, I cannot keep this child. Zhang Niannian dares to associate with traitors; she deserves to die!"
“When Zhang Niannian was with Wei Tianning, he wasn’t exactly a traitor; he was just a gigolo.”
Lu Youyou offered an explanation for Zhang Niannian.
It's not lying, it's just stating the truth.
"My lord, I have a way to remove this bastard from his petrified state, but I cannot accept him joining the Bubble Clan. Whether to save him or not is up to you, my lord."
"save."
Zhang Wuyou glanced at Lu Youyou in surprise and questioned, "Are you sure you want to save her, sir? Aren't you afraid of breaking my heart, and breaking the heart of the entire Bubble Clan?"
Lu Youyou frowned slightly, somewhat impatiently: "Didn't you tell me to choose? What have you been doing after I chose? Questioning me?"
"Why would you save this bastard, sir?"
“Baby saved me, saved all of humanity in the survival world. Since you don’t want him, then I will. You can heal him, and I will take him with me after you’re done.”
"As expected of an adult, your words carry weight."
Zhang Wuyou made a sarcastic remark, but had no choice but to accept his fate: "Fine, I'll cure this bastard."
As he finished speaking, he tapped the ground three times with his rose-shaped cane, causing the rose petals to emit a soft, pale pink light.
The light kept gathering into a ball, and the color of the ball became more and more solid.
"go with!"
Zhang Wuyou shouted, and the ball of light quickly disappeared into the stone's body.
Click.
A crack appeared in the stone.
Then, the clicking sounds continued.
pat.
Once the cracks reach a certain point, the stones begin to fall off.
A soft, watery lump of dough hung down through the opening.
Lu Youyou quickly caught it, afraid that the texture was too thin and would fall to the ground.
"Sister, you're blocking my transformation into legs!"
A clear, childlike voice rang out, and Lu Youyou breathed a sigh of relief.
He can speak, and speaks fluently, so he shouldn't be in a state of being a fool that Wei Tianning modified him into.
She released her hand from the gap, letting the adhesive hang down.
The adhesive, which reached down to her knees, suddenly faded and turned white, revealing toes.
The same applies to the other side.
A blob of sticky glue with indistinct features gradually developed hands, feet, and a head...
Zhang Wuyou looked dejected and stood to the side, appearing incredibly lonely.
He stared at the fair-skinned baby, as if looking through him at Zhang Niannian's childhood.
