(Two in one) “After all, it is Salba. So many people were swallowed by that desert, even the corpse…”
…
Lu Liran didn’t know that he had a strange little brother. Meanwhile, Jin Fei took the can of wound medicine and rubbed it on him, and the small wound quickly healed, visible to the naked eye.
“Sent from the hotel?” Lu Liran asked Jin Fei, playing with the small medicine can.
Jin Fei nodded: “The hotel attendant sent it.”
Lu Liran nodded slightly when he heard his words, then his eyes fell on the military print on the medicine can, and raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.
Where can the hotel get this kind of military wound medicine? Even on the battlefield, these wound medicines were in short supply, and they were all given priority to the soldiers of the vanguard and mobile units.
Even if the war ceases now, there is no reason to switch to the private market so soon, not to mention that this place is still the Desolate Star.
Lu Liran didn’t say anything, the round and small medicine can was spinning around between his fingers as he played with it.
“Young master, what luggage do you want to bring when you leave this time? I will prepare it for you.” Jin Fei said.
Lu Liran paused, remembering the limitations of the system, he said: “I’ll do it myself.”
Seeing this, Jin Fei no longer persisted, he nodded and retreated, turning to tease the little young master.
This time the system mission limited the number of Lu Liran’s equipment and disabled his terminal, which meant that even if he did hunt some small and medium-sized animals in the Salba Desert, he couldn’t bring them to the overnight place intact.
Lu Liran pinched his eyebrows, there are at most seven pieces of equipment, he needs to plan carefully.
The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge, coupled with the sandstorms that may be generated at any time, wearing a set of wind-sand proof thick outerwear, and a set of quick-drying underwear already occupying four equipment slots.
For jackets and trousers, he has to find one with the most pockets. After all, his terminal is disabled, naturally, the more places he can store things on his body, the better.
Lu Liran experimented, and found that intimate innerwear is not counted in the number of equipment limited by the system, so socks, boxers, and undershirts as such that use the most fabric.
The basic thermal vest produced by the system is not counted in the quantity, so Lu Liran went through the system’s rules and wore two vests.
The gear alone used up four slots, and there were still three left, so Lu Liran had to choose more carefully.
First is the backpack. After his terminal is disabled, he must at least have a place to store things. Reinforced thickened and enlarged cross-country backpack, can carry dozens of pounds of stuff.
Then there is the military canteen, which has a capacity of one liter.
Once he finds a source of drinkable fresh water in the desert, he must bring as much as he can, so a military canteen is a must.
Lu Liran tried to fill it with water, but the system did not sound the prohibition warning.
His eyes lit up, which meant that he could carry a liter of water into the desert.

Jin Fei warmed up a cup of milk and put it gently in Lu Liran’s hand, before he knew it, it was late at night again.
“Is Ziqian asleep?” Lu Liran pinched the center of his eyebrows and asked in a low voice.
After staring at the light brain for several hours, only now did he feel his eye sockets were astringent, and there was a dull pain between his brows.
“Well, the little young master is asleep. The young master should also go to bed early.” Jin Fei said, then glanced at the text information Lu Liran had sorted out, and said, “It’s not too late to sort these out tomorrow.”
Lu Liran responded, leaning lightly on the back of the chair behind him, feeling the warmth from the cup of milk in his palms.
“I just don’t feel like I have the time, and I feel unprepared if I don’t do something. After all, it’s Salba, so many of us were swallowed up by that desert, and we couldn’t even find their dead bodies.”
He lowered his voice, looking tired.
“That was four or five years ago. Compared with four or five years ago, you are completely different.” Jin Fei said.
His eyes were slightly empty, and some pictures that he tried to forget appeared unconsciously in his mind.
He took a deep breath and said: “What’s more, you were able to drag me out of the Salba desert four or five years ago, so four or five years later, Salba will be just a difficult psychological shadow for you to cross; it can’t hurt you much.”
Lu Liran laughed and shook his head.
He shook the cup of milk and said to Jin Fei: “If you say that, you should give me a glass of wine. Wine makes you courageous. I probably need a little courage.”
Jin Fei disagreed and said: “You don’t lack courage, or boldness or skill. What you lack is a high-quality deep sleep.”
Lu Liran was half pulled by Jin Fei to get up from the chair, then was pushed into the bedroom and was pressed on the bed.
At this time, the young housekeeper can vaguely see the shadow of the future majestic and tough fledgling.
—— Strong or what not, when doing something dangerous, the both young masters of the Lu family, big and small, are only doing it in case things endanger their own safety.
Under the hint of Jin Fei’s eyes, Lu Liran had no choice but to finish the cup of warm milk in one go.
“You are more disobedient than little young master Ziqian.” Jin Fei took the empty cup and sighed. Even the cub knows that he should drink milk obediently before going to bed, so that he can sleep more soundly, but the young master hates this thing deeply.
He turned off the light in Lu Liran’s bedroom, and said softly: “Good night, young master, and have a good dream.”
“…good night.” Lu Liran closed his eyes, feeling amused and replied in a low voice.
He didn’t know if it was because of the warm milk, but this time he slept very soundly.
When Lu Liran woke up the next day, it was almost noon.
Under the watchful eye of the housekeeper, Lu Ziqian finished eating milk cakes and soy milk, and was taking medicine right now.
“Papa sleep in.” After drinking the medicine, Lu Ziqian gave his papa a big smile.
Lu Liran stroked his short hair curled up in sleep, and took the opportunity to rub the newly sprouted stubble on his chin against his cub. It made the kid “quack, quack” laughing like a duckling, running around in the small living room.
Not long after running, Lu Ziqian obediently stopped to rest, covering his small chest and panting lightly.
“It doesn’t hurt today.” Lu Ziqian waved at his papa and the housekeeper, Uncle Jin, who ran over worriedly. He then happily sticks out his small chest, “It doesn’t hurt at all.”
Lu Liran heaved a sigh of relief, and picked up Lu Ziqian: “It means that the medicine that Zai-Zai took is effective, so we must keep it up.”
“Yeah!” Little Zai-Zai echoed loudly.
Lu Liran played with the little guy with building blocks for a while, and read a few storybooks. It wasn’t until Lu Ziqian asked to watch TV after a while that he turned to his own affairs.
He sat back in front of the light brain, and saw an extra stack of information on the table, all of which were sorted information about the sand cocoon. Even some things that were not identified as sand cocoons but have similar traits were organized into a separate category for reference.
Lu Liran flipped through it roughly, even if he searched for the information himself, it would not be more comprehensive than this.
He turned to Jin Fei, and Jin Fei smiled at him gently, and said: “Taking advantage of the time when the young master had rare sleep in, I sorted out some information a little bit, which can save the young master a little effort and time.”
“How long did you sleep last night?” Lu Liran asked him back.
“Slept enough.” Jin Fei replied.
Lu Liran shook his head helplessly, so he picked up the fruits of Jin Fei’s labor and looked at them carefully.
…
After Rocke Feller learned about the condition of Lu Liran’s little boy from his personal doctor, Yao Ruocheng, he saw the notice in the live broadcast room not long after, and knew that Lu Liran was about to leave again.
Once the news from both ends crossed, it was clear that Lu Liran’s purpose this time was to go for the sand cocoon.
He dug out the only three sand cocoons from his own collection, then brought the bib that Lu Ziqian, this kid, had lent him to wipe his tears last time, and visited Lu Liran.
“Brother Lu, don’t worry, even if you are not with the little guy during this time, I will let the hotel take care of them more. The little guy can order room service for whatever they want to eat, and adults can do it too. So don’t worry about the cost, just pretend this is your own home.” Rocke Feller said.
He made arrangements one by one. After the basic necessities of life were finished, it was time for the medical care of the little boy.
The eldest young master who has always been spoiled and pampered, who could have his clothes as he opens his mouth, when he wants to treat someone nice, he can also instantly become a three-good housekeeper.
“This is Yao Ruocheng’s contact information. If you have any questions, just contact her. I have already greeted her, and you can contact her 25 hours a day.”
Feller said, and then exchanged Yao Ruocheng’s contact information with Lu Liran and Jin Fei.
He thought about it and asked again: “Why don’t I arrange a nurse for you? The kind that specializes in looking after the health of the cubs.”
Jin Fei’s alarm bell sounded loud. Before, he thought that this young master was going to grab his job, but now, he actually wanted to find someone to replace him! Simply too much!
“No need.” Lu Liran refused, “Jin Fei has been taking care of Ziqian for a long time, and there is no need for outsiders.”
“I’ll buy those three sand cocoons from you.” Lu Liran transferred 15,000 star coins to Rocke Feller’s account.
——The purchase order he put up had already raised the price to 5,000 star coins, but even so, he didn’t receive a few more. The three sand cocoons sent by Rocke Feller were just a timely help.
Before Rocke Feller had time to refuse, he heard a message about the arrival of star coins from his optical brain. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he said: “It’s really nothing. I have money, and I just want to do some practical help.”
“That’s enough.” Lu Liran said.
Rocke Feller couldn’t do anything about Lu Liran’s sense of distance, and after sitting there for a while, he felt bored, so he had to get up and leave: “I came here this time not to thank you for Arlok but for what you said to me that day.”
“I will be busy in the future, but no matter what, if you need my help, Brother Lu, please contact me at any time, and I will definitely help.” Feller stood at the door, looking at Lu Liran seriously, “Maybe the next time we meet, I’ll be in a new whole look, too.”
Lu Liran paused, seeing the firmness and conviction in the other person’s eyes that he had never seen before, he was a little surprised, but he quickly replied: “Good.”
“Do you believe I can do it?” Feller was slightly excited by Lu Liran’s one-word response.
Lu Liran nodded noncommittally and said: “Why won’t I believe it? If you can’t do it, you will die.”
Feller choked, typical of Lu Liran’s style of speech, he smiled and his eyes narrowed into a slit: “That’s right. Then I wish Brother Lu a smooth journey to the desert afterwards!”
Lu Liran responded.
Jin Fei couldn’t wait to send Feller out the door, and then closed the door unceremoniously with a “bang”.
Feller was locked at the door, almost hitting the bridge of his nose. He touched the tip of his nose with lingering fear.
Upon seeing this, the passing hotel attendant immediately looked around.
Even the eldest young master will be shut out, sure enough, he will have to stand far away from the door in the future—— the attendant once again firmly determined this idea in his heart.
Sunnyshies: I think I keep switching between optical brain and light brain. They’re the same thing, people! Don’t be confused like me!
Oh man, I love this innocent hotel attendant!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such a wise hotel attendant! He’ll become a manager in no time!! Thank you for the chapter~
The nose knows! Omg! Hahahahaha! Thanks for the translation 🤣❤️🚪💥👀🤣❤️
»Maybe The next time we meet..« the next
JF is precious :3 And that hotel attendant is wise, I guess xDDD
Thx for the ch ٩( >ヮ<)۶
thanks!
Ahh Fella is a nice dude, I wish him the best. He grew up from when we first met him.
Jin Fei is hilarious, calm down sir.
I AM CONFUSED. Like when was Zai-Zai conceived? The caretaker said they were on the Desolate planet for 5 years but ZZ is 3 years old?
sister I will explain real quickly, JF said the time was between 4-5 years I’m guessing Zai-Zai would already be a few months old since then and it was also said before that Zai-Zai was 3-4 years old, so my best guess is that after they left the desert very soon after LL gave birth to Zai-Zai so Zai-Zai should be close to 4 years old probably under 4 and is turning 4 this year because it was a 7 year long war and it was said that LL got lost somewhere in the middle of the war (prob somewhere around 3-4 years since the war started) to simplify, all the timelines are 3-4 years
Ooohhh ic ic thank you for enlightening me
no problem glad I could help ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝⋆˙⟡♡
Pfft system is ruthless, he could only take the most basic things with him, not even a rope. But what if he would take someone with him and made them carry more things? Would it count?
