Chapter 227 Interstellar Wilderness Star Farmer 38
On the day of the wedding, Dai Lixing posted a picture of the wedding scene on his StarNet.
The background is an abbreviation of his and Ji Xiaosong's names.
Normally, someone of his rank wouldn't need to disclose whether he's married or who his spouse is.
But he wanted everyone to know that he had Ji Xiaosong.
No photos of Ji Xiaosong's face or Ji Sui'an were posted, which was also Ji Xiaosong's request.
She didn't even show her face during the live stream, and at such a moment, she didn't want to appear in front of others.
Those invited to the couple's wedding were all people of considerable prestige and close friends with Dai Lixing.
"Report to the Marshal, StarNet's public opinion monitoring shows that your wedding news has topped the trending search list in 723 star domains."
Before the mechanical voice in the adjutant's earpiece had even faded, Dai Lixing had already unbuttoned the first platinum button on the collar of his military uniform.
A slight tremor suddenly came from the floating viewing platform, and Ji Xiaosong's pearl veil with dark patterns brushed against the man's Adam's apple.
Dai Lixing lowered his eyes and saw his wife's smile hidden in the folds of her wedding dress.
“Witnesses, all of you.”
He suddenly raised his voice, and the throat vibration sensor used for commanding battles flashed red on his neck.
The generals of the twelve constellations in the audience straightened their backs simultaneously, a natural bodily response to their supreme commander.
Military boots crushed the roses falling from the dome, and when Dai Lixing knelt on one knee, he shook off the stardust from his cloak.
This man, who once single-handedly destroyed the Zerg hive, now used the hands that disassembled his mech to lift his wife's skirt.
He slightly raised his eyes, his gaze fixed firmly on Ji Xiaosong. His voice trembled slightly due to the fluctuations of his emotions, yet it conveyed an undeniable firmness:
"Songsong, on the vast interstellar battlefield, I led thousands of troops, charging fearlessly, using the sharp blade in my hand to cut through the enemy's defenses and protect the peace of my star system. But after meeting you, I realized that my true weakness and armor are both you."
His eyes were both tender and passionate, as if at that moment the entire universe consisted only of him and Ji Xiaosong:
"For the past thirty-eight years, I have traveled among the endless stars, chasing victory and exploring the unknown. But you are the unexpected variable, the light that makes me willing to stop and protect you with all my heart."
Dai Lixing tightened his grip on Ji Xiaosong's hand: "For the rest of our lives, I will shield you from the flames of war in the stars; I will bear the burdens of daily life. You only need to be by my side, and you will live a peaceful and joyful life. From this day forward, you are my only steadfast commitment, the source of all my tenderness for the rest of my life."
After speaking, he took out the ring he had prepared beforehand from his pocket. The ring was inlaid with a unique crystal extracted from the core of a rare pulsar.
Dai Lixing gently took Ji Xiaosong's hand and slowly slipped the ring onto her ring finger with a gentle yet solemn gesture. Then, he kissed the back of her hand.
On the viewing platform, all was quiet, as everyone was immersed in Dai Lixing's heartfelt vow.
After a brief silence, thunderous applause erupted from the crowd.
The generals of the Twelve Star Districts were filled with shock and respect. They had witnessed the marshal's bravery and fearlessness on the battlefield, but they had never seen him so tender and gentle. At this moment, they clapped vigorously, their palms turning red. They couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of this commander. It turned out that even a tough guy could have such a tender heart.
The representatives from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Academy of Sciences of the Main Star had slightly reddened eyes and wore relieved smiles.
One of the old men shook his head with emotion and whispered to the person next to him, "Our marshal, who fought bravely on the battlefield, was unexpectedly so sincere in the face of love."
Those around them nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with blessings for the newlyweds.
The female guests were already moved to tears. They looked at Ji Xiaosong with envy in their eyes and whispered among themselves.
"This is so romantic, it's amazing that it could make the marshal fall so in love with her."
"Yes, Miss Ji is truly blessed."
A young woman took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. Her companion, holding her hand, said excitedly, "I want to have such a profound and unforgettable love like Miss Ji in the future."
Interstellar journalists surrounding the floating viewing platform frantically pressed the shutter buttons on their devices to capture this historic moment.
This vow and this scene will surely spread widely throughout the galaxy and become an eternal legend.
At this moment, a veteran reporter, speaking into his interview equipment, said in a slightly trembling voice:
"Dear viewers, we are witnessing a wedding of the century. The Marshal's heartfelt vows show us the power of love, which can transform a hero who is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield into the gentlest guardian."
Amidst enthusiastic applause and excited discussions, the atmosphere at the wedding reached a new climax.
The wedding banquet lasted for seven days, and the happiest people were none other than the people from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Academy of Sciences of the Main Star.
Almost all of their top management were mobilized to seize this opportunity.
This was their first time visiting Vastar, and their first time getting up close to the source of those toxin-free and radiation-free plants and animals.
Whenever Ji Xiaosong has free time, she is surrounded by them.
Knowing what these people were thinking, Ji Xiaosong didn't stop them.
She also didn't want to socialize or attend social events. Given her current status, she didn't need to curry favor with anyone.
So she simply took the two deans and their students with her to various planting sites.
Ji Xiaosong led everyone onto a specially designed hover sightseeing vehicle, which smoothly drove towards the mountains.
Along the way, the scenery on both sides rushed past, the lush vegetation exuding vitality, which was completely different from the metallic texture and artificial landscapes commonly seen in interstellar space, eliciting a gasp of amazement from everyone.
“Miss Ji, these plants look so different from what we’ve seen before. They seem more…vibrant.”
A young student from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences couldn't help but speak up, his eyes full of curiosity.
Ji Xiaosong explained with a smile, "The plants here have not been genetically modified and grow entirely according to the laws of nature. On this land, I have tried my best to create the most pristine ecological environment so that they can grow freely."
As they were talking, the sightseeing bus arrived at the foot of a mountain.
As everyone got out of the car, a fresh scent of grass and trees wafted towards them, mixed with a faint fruity aroma.
The dean of the Academy of Sciences of the Main Star took a deep breath and exclaimed, "This smell is so intoxicating, it seems to wash away the fatigue of interstellar travel."
Ji Xiaosong raised an eyebrow and glanced at him, realizing he certainly knew his stuff.
She used a spirit-gathering array on this mountain range.
As you follow the winding path, a fruit orchard laden with fruit comes into view.
The fruits on the branches are round and plump, with bright colors, and shimmer with an alluring luster under the sunlight.
“These are the star fruits I cultivated,”
Ji Xiaosong explained, "It is rich in various vitamins and energy elements. Taking a bite will give you a wonderful taste experience, like holding the stars in your mouth."
The director of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences' eyes lit up, and he immediately leaned closer to observe: "Miss Ji, this cultivation process must have been very difficult, right? We have tried to cultivate many kinds of fruit trees on the main planet, but none of them could achieve such a natural and pure state."
Ji Xiaosong gently shook her head: "Actually, as long as we respect nature, follow their growth habits, and provide them with a suitable environment, plants will give us unexpected rewards. Just like this orchard, I carefully adjusted the soil pH, the duration of sunlight, and the temperature difference between day and night to make them grow strong."
The group continued on their way and came to a terraced field.
In the terraced fields, layer upon layer, tender green vegetables sway gently in the breeze.
"These vegetables are all toxin-free and radiation-free, and they taste excellent."
Ji Xiaosong bent down, picked a leaf from a vegetable, and handed it to the student next to her, saying, "Try it."
The student took a small bite and his eyes widened instantly: "So sweet! This tastes completely different from the vegetables in the interstellar supermarket."
"That's right,"
Ji Xiaosong nodded, "The vegetables you could buy before were mostly industrially grown, pursuing high yield and fast growth. But the vegetables here have enough time to absorb the essence of heaven and earth, resulting in a unique natural flavor."
The dean of the Academy of Sciences of the Main Star pondered: "Miss Ji, your planting philosophy may bring new ideas to the agricultural development of our Main Star. We have been trapped in the bottleneck of high-tech planting, but have ignored the most authentic natural forces."
Ji Xiaosong said with a smile, "I also hope to communicate more with everyone and promote this planting method so that more people can taste the flavor of nature."
Afterwards, they went to the plains.
On the vast plains, seas of flowers and fields of crops intertwine, creating a vibrant tapestry of colors.
A gust of wind blew by, and the sea of flowers rippled in waves, while the farmland rustled.
"Wow, this is a dreamland!"
A female student shouted excitedly.
"The ecosystem here is very well-preserved,"
As Ji Xiaosong walked, she said, "Insects in the sea of flowers pollinate crops, and crops in turn provide habitats for insects, forming a virtuous cycle."
A professor from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences raised a question: "Ms. Ji, in an interstellar environment, will this ecological cycle be disturbed by external factors? Such as interstellar radiation and cosmic dust?"
Ji Xiaosong confidently replied, "I have set up a special protective barrier on Waxing that can effectively block most harmful radiation and dust. Moreover, I am constantly researching how to make these plants have stronger resistance to interference."
During the exploration, everyone chatted and shared their planting experiences and research ideas, with laughter and discussions echoing between the mountains and plains.
After several days of exploration, everyone at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences was amazed by Ji Xiaosong's planting methods.
These were things that everyone knew in the past, but now, due to technological advancements, we have lost the opportunity to wait for plants to grow.
After the originally scheduled wedding banquet ended, one of the agricultural scientists left with a local specialty of Waxing that he considered very important.
The Academy of Sciences of the Main Star, however, were more interested in the protective shield that Ji Xiaosong had mentioned.
They studied for several days but made no progress at all.
This worried them all greatly.
