Miss Star, spoiled by her father and brother

Chapter 292 Catching Turtles

The day after Xu Weiwei began treatment, Sifos left the planet of Goodall in a small starship and headed directly to the southern battlefield of the empire which was being invaded by alien creatures.

He had fought hard for these few days. Although his men were very capable, the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and he was always worried.

The remaining engineering team will leave on a Titan once all facilities are completed.

This departure meant that he would be completely cut off from his daughter. Sifos had once thought of building a signal base station on the planet Goodall, but it was just a thought. No matter how much he missed his daughter, he couldn't do such an unkind thing. Exposing a primitive planet that had no ability to defend against foreign enemies was no different from throwing mutton to wolves.

But you should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. He also took advantage of the night to quietly build a basement under the house. It was very large and had sufficient supplies. He could live in it for ten years without any problems.

Even Xu Weiwei didn't know it existed. Sifos hoped that this basement would never be opened.

After Sifos left, the bodyguard drove Xu Weiwei to treatment every day.

Growing up in an environment where Chinese medicine culture has long disappeared, the bodyguard was also greatly shocked at first. He questioned whether the black thing that smelled like a witch's black magic potion was really drinkable? Was he sure it was not poison?

And the burnt turtle shell doesn't look like it's edible. What's the difference between it and stone? When they saw Xu Weiwei taking it with water, the expressions of the three people were indescribable, and they tried their best to restrain the thought of stopping her.

The general had told them before they came that no matter what they saw, they should not make a fuss and should not interfere with the doctor's treatment. They didn't understand at first, but now they understand completely.

Although they did not interfere, the three of them often complained when they got together privately.

"Why do I feel like this is just like a kid playing house? Just pick up some grass roots and vegetable leaves and chop them up."

"And that smell, do you smell it? Ugh! It makes me want to vomit! It's so dark!"

"Ah, it's amazing that a little girl like her can drink it. The general's daughter is extraordinary and has some courage. If it were an ordinary child, she would be surprised if she could drink it without being forced to drink it."

"Hmm~ Maybe I've taken too many pills, so I'm used to it."

"Can you get used to it? I can't get used to it anyway. One time, I was sending little Weiwei home, and I secretly tasted a drop of the leftovers from her bowl. Can you imagine? Just that one drop! It was so bitter that I rolled my eyes! After that, I couldn't enjoy my meals for several days! I always felt a strange taste in my mouth..."

"I'm a little better than you. I just drank three bowls of water and ate a piece of candy to stop feeling sick."

“So you’ve all tasted it…”

"We have tried the medicine she took, it's not poisonous, but do you know what the treatment in the back room is like?"

The three of them looked at each other, none of them had any clue.

In addition to a bowl of "black potion" in the morning and evening, and a medicinal bath after dinner, Xiao Weiwei would also stay in the inner room with the priest for a while. They would stay there for an hour, and they had no idea what they were doing.

I wanted to take a peek but was afraid of violating the general's orders.

"Hey, you're also a woman, you should have a better relationship with Xiao Weiwei, have you asked?"

The team member disguised as a maid was silent for a while, her expression a little serious, "I told you to stay calm."

The two of them agreed to it, but the next second after they learned the truth -

"what?!"

“Let me go! Ouch!”

The skilled female team member first quickly hit one of her teammates on the nose, then chased two steps and locked the head of another teammate from behind.

"Red! Let go!"

The woman called Hong loosened her arms a little and said angrily, "What did I say? You forgot everything in the blink of an eye, right? Are your men's brains made of tofu dregs?"

"The general knows about this treatment method. If there is real danger, would you still be worried here? Xiao Weiwei is not a fool. If she really feels threatened, she will ask us for help."

The two of them slowly calmed down after hearing this. Although they still had doubts, they suppressed their doubts and did not take any action. They only asked Xu Weiwei indirectly every day how she felt, whether she felt uncomfortable, etc.

After getting reassuring answers over and over again, I gradually stopped asking questions and just went around looking for turtles diligently.

This is one of the few ways they can help besides picking up and waiting.

The amount of herbs used was huge, but they didn't know what to use. They went out to look for them twice and only came back with a bunch of useless weeds. They were not as capable as a young boy.

The same goes for finding turtles. They are good at swimming and it is common for them to go fishing in the wild when on a mission. But that is limited to fishing. This is the first time they have fished for turtles.

They had always thought that this was a probabilistic event, and that turtles would only come across them in very rare cases. But seeing that the boy named Ganz could catch one or two turtles every day and bring them over, and that he could even keep the extra ones in the lotus pot in the yard, they gradually lost confidence.

Sometimes I can't catch even one in a day, how come that guy can catch so many? Is there regional discrimination against turtles here???

The two men refused to admit defeat and wondered if they had gone to the wrong place, or if there were just few turtles in this river. But the fact was that the harder they tried, the more embarrassed they became.

Finally, I had to swallow my pride and ask Ganz how he caught so many fish and where he did it.

Ganz was a little surprised. "Fished? No, fishing is too inefficient to catch old turtles. We always catch them."

"Grasp?"

"Ok!"

Ganz generously shared his experience, "First, you need to judge whether there are old turtles in the river by the traces on the shore. There are two traces of its claws crawling, and the wider the traces, the bigger the body. Then you can observe the bubbles in the river. Their bubbles are round, the size of a bowl. If you see them, just go into the water and feel for them."

"The fish you use for fishing will eat the bait first, and it will be difficult to catch them. But you have to be careful, the bite of the old turtle can be very painful." Ganz reminded.

The two thanked him gratefully.

One day, while having breakfast, Xu Weiwei suddenly asked, "Sister Hong, where are Uncle Dao and Uncle Kai? What are they busy with recently? It seems like they are always in a hurry every time we meet."

"They are busy killing turtles in the river. The attack is pure revenge."

"what?"

"I can't fish, so I blame them for not being smart. Now they have found the trick, and I want to make up for the effort I spent before. Men are stupid."

Hong complained coldly with a disdainful snort.

Xu Weiwei: “…” If I put it this way, it would be hard to express my gratitude.
