Chapter 66 part2 (1/2)

Having a general idea of what the scene might look like in the eyes of the muka cub, Xie Luan's left eye subconsciously twitched.

However, this scene did not remain for very long. Xie Luan saw the nox on top of him at last lay down beside him, the silver tail still around his waist. The nox then reached out and pulled him close.

Since the cub was watching, they naturally did not move after this. The muka cub would obediently close his eyes and go to sleep soon.

Reassured by this, Xie Luan directed his attention back at the nox hugging him. Just now he had actually, with great difficulty, been able to partially pacify the nox who was in an abnormal state. Now that he looked up and met the two cyan eyes, the contracted pupils in them seemed to have already eased a lot.

Just hug him.

Thinking this, Xie Luan was hugged like this by the nox beside him and slept throughout the night.

Waking up to find that they were still in this position, Xie Luan gave a low cough and touched the silver tail encircling his waist. The tail willingly let go of him and Xie Luan was then able to get up from the bed.

Before the Star Alliance dispatch came to retrieve the four wanted criminals, Duke spared no effort to squeeze out the remaining value out of the four.

First of all, the other's space button was naturally confiscated. This space button still contained a few baseda ores which had been snatched from them earlier.

Next, Duke also pried out the information regarding the hidden property from the leader of the group. The other had buried a large amount of money on a small planet, enough for him to establish another star pirate gang.

Lastly, Duke had the four plant trees with them.

Once the members of the Star Alliance arrived, according to the crimes they had committed, these four would certainly have to stay in the Star Alliance prison for the rest of their lives. Duke felt that he had already shown them enough kindness by letting them have a lot of outdoor activities now.

Planting trees in the uninhabited area between the village and the mine had been Xie Luan's idea. After explaining the benefits of increasing this planet's vegetational coverage, the mukas in the village were eager to do it.

As a result, from that day on, there were adult mukas from the village who went to the wilderness in order to plant small saplings.

Originally, Xie Luan was considering whether to bring some saplings from his world which were suitable as windbreaks for sand fixation, such as the populus euphratica. But he found that there were plants more apt for this task in this world.

On the planet the shuren race resided on, there was a kind of tree called darrow tree. It had high adaptability to its surroundings and the saplings grew quickly after being planted. It was also very excellent as a windbreak for sand fixation.

Xie Luan helped to plant saplings as well. This planet was the home of the muka cub next to him. Although one person had limited power, he too wished to help the planet by adding a little green.

”Right, then Nick can put the sapling in.”

After planting a tree, Xie Luan taught the muka cub next to him how to plant a small sapling by himself.

Holding the small sapling and correctly placing it into the pit, the muka cub then properly filled it with soil just like the youth had shown him. Like this, the planting could be regarded as complete.

Seeing the cub finish the task, Xie Luan quickly praised the muka cub. When the cub then lowered his head and snuggled into his arms, Xie Luan at once raised his hand and lightly patted the cub's sharp forearm.

The originally very open wilderness was now filled with many small saplings.

According to the growth period of darrow trees, if there was no mishap, after about half a year this place would probably be much greener and full of life.
