Qi Heng played...
Chapter 155
"Xizi is a little full, can you help me take care of him?" Chu Xiu looked natural.
This reason sounds fine, but to Qi Heng it seems a bit careless.
He looked down at the little bug cub that kept rubbing its belly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and knew the reason why Chu Xiu did not expose him.
"Can."
As he spoke, Qi Heng placed his hand on the insect cub's belly and rubbed it gently.
Xizai, who was touched by Xiong's father, decisively put down his hand and leaned on Xiong's father's arms to cling to him.
"Thank you for the trouble." Chu Xiu glanced at the kitchen and continued speaking.
"Leave the finishing touches to me."
Under Chu Xiu's gaze, Qi Heng nodded helplessly and left the kitchen with the insect cub.
After leaving the kitchen and having nowhere to go, he looked down at the bug cub and said, "Your mother father won't let me help, and there's nowhere else to go. It seems I'll have to stay here for a while."
"The male father."
Xizi tugged at his clothes to attract his attention, then tugged at his own clothes, wrinkled his nose and said, "Dirty, Zizi wants to take a bath."
"It's time to take a shower." Qi Heng raised his finger and tapped lightly on his brow.
The clothes that the little bug played hide-and-seek on were covered in dust. Although they didn't look very dirty, they really couldn't be worn like that any longer.
In fact, not only the cub, but I myself was not in good condition either. My whole body was covered with dust from when I held the cub.

In the bathroom.
Qi Heng put the little bugs aside and boiled water for himself.
The conditions at the base were poor, so we kept everything simple.
A simple metal pot rests on a built-up stove, beneath which is a black stove, the same style as the one in the kitchen. Unscrewing the newly installed water pipe outlet next to it, water will flow out of the outlet.
From the identical colors of the external pipes and the metal pot, you can tell at a glance that these were added later.
Xizi sat on his own mini stool and put his hands into the mini bathtub next to him, shaking them back and forth, not at all bothered by the cold water inside because it had not been heated.
Qi Heng stood aside, waiting for the water to boil.
To be fair, this bathroom was very, very shabby in his eyes. But with contrast, there is always a highlight. Compared with the gathering place, this place was much better.
It was quite difficult for the Tianjia Zerg in the gathering place to take a bath. They had to fetch water and boil water... Although this bathroom only simplified one step, it was a leap forward.
The principle of 'tap water' is very simple, and the manufacturing process is not difficult at all.
The Tianjia Civilization Central Database, established by A1, contained all the necessary knowledge, and Chu Xiu had access to virtually everything with his authority. Coupled with A1's inherent computing power, even simulating the missile-building process was no problem.
As for the materials?
These are mainly metals that were originally eaten by gold-eating beetles. These metals are useless when piled there, so being able to use them now can be considered a waste recycling.
The shape is even simpler, just let the gold-eating beetle create it directly.
All you need is a few metal pipes and simple valves, connect them together and install them on site to make a simple tap water delivery device.
Not only these metal pipes, most of the 'furniture' in the room are made of metal. It can be imagined that the gold-eating beetles played a significant role in this.
It's just a pity.
This set can only be used here and cannot be used outside.
Not to mention anything else, just the current temperature above the surface is minus ten to twenty degrees Celsius. Even if water pipes are installed, they will all freeze.
In such weather, it is not warm even underground.
The relatively suitable temperature under the Dead Egg Pit is entirely thanks to its predecessor. Although the underground building was affected by the explosion, the original metal layer and insulation layer were not greatly affected. This is also due to the high quality of the buildings built by the Tianjia civilization.
"The male father is the male father."
Qi Heng was a little absent-minded, and Xizi called him twice before calling him back.
"What's wrong?" He asked as he looked at the insect cub that ran in front of him and looked up at him.
Xizi pointed at the clothes on his body and said, "My mother-in-law said I should change into clean clothes after taking a bath and wear them to sleep."
You just need to change into pajamas, right?
Qi Heng understood, took the insect cub's hand and asked, "Do you know where to put it?"
"Uh-huh."
Qi Heng took Chongzi's hand and walked from the bathroom to the bed in the bedroom, and saw Chongzi pointing at the folded clothes on the bedside.
"This cat belongs to Zizi."
Qi Heng picked up the pajamas that looked too small, shook them open, and saw a few cat heads printed on them.
There is no shortage of clothes on Tianyun Star. The Ikar civilization transports supplies every six months, and they bring in a large number of unsold, second-hand donated, and discarded clothes from within the civilization.
Because of this, the Zerg on Tianyun Star dress in a very "normal" way, which is completely inconsistent with the style of this planet that has returned to its primitive state.
Qi Heng felt the corner of his clothes being pulled.
He looked over and saw Xizi staring at him, blinking his big eyes as if expecting something.
Looking like this, what do you want to say?
Qi Heng was silent for a moment, thought for a moment and said, "Very cute."
When Xizai heard this, he didn't care who this cute person was talking about. In Xizai's ears, it sounded like this cute person was talking about himself.
"Yeah! Baby is so cute!" Xizi put his hands together under his chin, held his face and smiled at him with his head tilted.
The half-meter-tall cub, cradling its fair, chubby face, inherited from both parents, with its palms, hints at its future beauty even at its young age. This adorable expression was shared online, and countless people would shout, "What color sack does the cub like?" and then kidnap it.
Who doesn't love cute pups?
Qi Heng can't do it anyway.
The cubs of the Tianjia tribe are all good-looking, which is probably the only thing that can make him feel a little comforted, not to mention that the cub in front of him is his own.
Qi Heng rubbed the cub's head, feeling that it felt as good as ever.
Xizi has long been accustomed to Xiongfu's frequent pats on his head. In his little head, this means intimacy, closeness and love. Many times, when Xiongfu has touched him but has not yet removed his hand, he will take the initiative to rub Xiongfu's palm to express his joy.
"The water is almost hot, time to take a shower."
"Hero father, help me."
Qi Heng agreed without thinking too much.
"good."
At this time, Qi Heng didn't know what he was going to face.
Five minutes later.
"Don't move around, it will be painful if it gets into your eyes." Qi Heng held down the little bug with one hand, who became as lively and active as a monkey after entering the water. Feeling a little tired, he smeared the juice rubbed out from his hands on the little bug's hair.
There are no cleaning products on Tianyun Star. This place is relatively primitive. They use juice from rubbing some kind of leaves to wash the kids' hair.
The juice tastes refreshing and has a natural herbal aroma
"Okay, alright." Xizi pursed his lips, and his hand on the water surface seemed to be moving restlessly where Qi Heng wasn't paying attention.
It is a bit difficult for Xizi to control himself from playing in the water. Usually his mother doesn't let him play, and he can only play for a while at this time every day.
Well, it should be okay to play quietly.
Xizi thought about it and gently patted the water surface with his hands.
However, despite the effort to control the force, a lot of water still splashed out.
Qi Heng, whose face was covered in water, said: ...
He wiped his face and reached out to hold down the cub's hand: "No more playing, you see, your father's clothes are all wet."
Qi Heng's already thin shirt sleeves and hem, along with his vest, were soaked by water, and even his pants were not spared - it was all the brat's fault.

The author has something to say: There are a lot of things going on recently, and I will be busy around the New Year, so I won’t be able to ask for leave in advance.
(My energy is much worse now than before. My eyes hurt after looking at the screen for too long... This chapter took me 1 hour and 40 minutes to write, 2k words - I can't believe it QWQ)
