Chapter 137 Mommy earns money to buy you candy
It was not until he was about to go out to pick up trash that Xingxing learned from Qiuqiu that he had earned his first money since coming to this world in the live broadcast.
"No, no!"
Qiuqiu shook his chubby body and happily corrected: "It's the first sum of money from the two worlds of Doomsday and StarCraft combined!"
Money is completely useless in the doomsday. All the stars get is a stack of waste paper. According to the survivors of the doomsday, it is too rough even to wipe their butts with.
But StarCraft money is valuable! !
The ball suddenly unfolded the light curtain, showing the purchasing power of the star coins in this world to the child who was comfortably nestled in the human's arms and being pushed forward in a wheelchair by the human.
"Baby, you can buy a bottle of low-quality nutrient solution for just one star coin!"
"10 star coins can buy a bottle of clean drinking water with no radiation or pollution."
"And an intelligent robot like the one you have now is also very cheap. You can buy it for only 8,888 star coins."
After a pause, it added: "Of course, this is the current price. When this model of companion robot from Polestar was first launched, its market price was comparable to that of a B+-class mecha."
Finally, he concluded: "Boy, we earned 6,827 star coins from one live broadcast, which is enough to buy a spot in the safe zone on the Exile Star."
The reason why the Exile Stars are called Exile Stars, where exiles wander and where interstellar garbage is dumped, is because these planets have experienced various radiation wars and rampages by alien beasts.
The entire planet is filled with radiation that is harmful to the human body, or the four seasons are chaotically reversed, crises are everywhere, basic protection facilities are destroyed, and all kinds of disasters may cover and destroy the planet at any time.
If the Planet Cup Federation Government gives up, the humans living here will always be in danger, and they may die in large numbers at any time due to various reasons.
They were even called exiles, rather than full citizens protected by federal law.
But there are also safe zones on this planet.
The Federal Kindergarten is located in the safe zone. The "government" established by this planet is actually a local force controlled by the Federation. There are basic laws and rules that need to be followed. When a disaster occurs, people and property in the safe zone will be better protected in the first place.
"I heard that there are many big shots in the safe zone. Once this planet encounters a devastating disaster, the Federation will open space routes and jump nodes for these big shots, allowing them to evacuate safely from the Exile Planet."
After Qiuqiu finished speaking, he reminded the cub who was listening attentively: "Xingxing, this planet will be completely out of control and destroyed by the alien beast tide in three years. If we want to leave this planet, the first step is to enter the safe zone."
Hearing this, Xingxing turned her head from Qi Nan's arms and looked back.
This is also the first time it has seen the appearance of this "home" since coming here.
A shabby home that can't even be called a home.
Several rusty steel plates were deeply embedded in the messy and dirty land, covered with steel plates as well. Not far behind this simple hut made of steel plates was a big mountain.
A huge, mountain of garbage.
The foot of the mountain is also blocked by various dilapidated steel plates, but looking at it this way, it always makes people feel that the garbage mountain will collapse at any time and bury the cabin completely.
In addition, within a radius of ten miles, there was nothing else except garbage everywhere.
The land under my feet is not flat. There are large potholes everywhere caused by rain or unknown liquids. The landform is not obvious after being buried under layers of garbage.
This is a devastated planet.
It is not bright at all, but even though it is so dilapidated, it still barely supports and nurtures many tenacious lives on this planet.
Such potholes and scars cannot stop Qinan from moving forward.
He has modified his wheelchair countless times, and even some parts of his body are used as walking support tools, so even without complete legs, Qi Nan still left the cabin smoothly while holding Xingxing.
He was going to a garbage mountain further away.
Perhaps only by going further away can we find more discarded parts.
He needs to make himself a pair of mechanical legs, and then...
Qi Nan lowered his head and looked at the little robot that had always been nestling obediently in his arms, and silently decided to look for more usable energy blocks for it later.
"We're going to a farther place this time." He lowered his head and said to the little robot in his arms, "If you're bored, watch cartoons."
Obviously, in just half a day, he had fully understood some of Xingxing's preferences.
As for watching cartoons, Qi Nan always felt a subtle sense of weirdness in his heart.
I always feel that... liking to watch cartoons and stuff is no different from being an ordinary kid.
But it is clearly a special little robot with its own intelligence and consciousness.
Putting aside this subtle feeling, he took off the worn-out laptop from his wrist and handed it to Xingxing.
The optical computer looks like a bracelet, but the stars need to be held with two small hands.
It held the laptop in its hands, but its eyes were fixed on the endless hills of garbage in front of it, with a faint light flashing in its eyes.
"Grandpa, there is someone in front." It suddenly reminded.
The wheelchair under Qi Nan paused, and he reacted very quickly to hide behind a two-meter-high piece of discarded steel.
Xingxing turned her head in confusion.
Qi Nan opened his mouth and explained in a low voice: "I am old. Once I am discovered, I will probably become a target for looting and exploitation."
An adult who likes to lie.
Xingxing turned her head and quietly let Qinan turn the wheelchair and leave the area lightly and silently.
After more than ten minutes, Qi Nan finally controlled the wheelchair to stop.
"Just stay here and don't run around. I'll go find some suitable energy for you." Qi Nan raised his hand and rubbed Xingxing's head as if he were a real child.
The feel of hair that was no different from real human hair made Qi Nan dazed for a moment.
He was silent for a moment, then turned and left.
After his figure disappeared on the garbage mountain, Xingxing looked down at the computer in his hand.
Thinking about what Qiuqiu had just said about the star coins he had earned, Xingxing thought for a moment and opened the live broadcast room again.
After receiving the reminder that the newly followed anchor "The Days of Retirement in Exile Star" was broadcasting again, the audience entered the live broadcast room one after another.
The number of barrages increased.
This time, Xingxing finally took a good look at the content of the barrage.
The audience had already prepared themselves that the host would ignore them, but after sending the barrage, they suddenly heard a familiar, soft, childish voice from behind the camera.
"Where is this?" The kid probably repeated what he saw in the comment, then held up his laptop and let the camera scan the surroundings, and finally fixed on the unknown garbage at his feet, and answered obediently: "This is one of the waste dumps on the Exile Planet."
The originally sparse comments paused for a moment, and then became visibly denser.
Xingxing stood there, not feeling distressed. She was still reading the comments in a soft and obedient voice and answering honestly.
"What am I doing standing in the garbage dump? I'm waiting for my grandfather. He went to the mountains to collect garbage, and he asked me to wait here for him to come back."
"What color pirate ship do I like? Hmm... I like red. Red is very beautiful, like blood. It looks especially delicious."
“…”
"Why am I chatting with you?"
After reading many comments, the kid finally noticed this one that kept refreshing the screen. After reading it, he was quiet for a few seconds. Then, amid the audience's tacit curiosity and waiting, he seemed a little uncertain and spoke:
“Because everyone seemed to have given me a lot of money before.”
It may still have no idea of the value of star coins. The cub's voice is soft, and if you listen carefully, you can hear some excitement and confusion hidden in it. Hiding behind the camera, it slowly asked them: "So I want to ask you, are you really giving it to me? If you give it all to me, do you still have money for food? How can I repay you as a thank you?"
There was genuine gratitude and confusion in Xingxing's eyes.
A long time ago, the cartoon said that adults all liked polite children.
At that time, Xingxing wanted to find his mother and win her love, so he began to learn to be a polite little zombie. He also wanted his mother to pat his head and praise him for being well-behaved and great, and he also wanted to see his mother smile at him beautifully and gently.
Later, Xingxing was left without a mother.
The inhuman little zombie has learned to be polite.
It can say please, thank you, sorry and it's okay.
When humans are no longer its food, the little zombie slowly understands that humans' unrequited kindness is the most precious, and humans' unreserved love is more precious and brilliant than life and food.
Stars rarely receive kindness without reason.
If human kindness could be measured by money, then the stars had received more than six thousand star coins worth of kindness.
They are extremely expensive things on this planet, the nutrient solution that Qi Nan could not find and had not expired or deteriorated, the precious spot that allowed the protagonist to enter the safe zone and go to school smoothly without having to test his mental strength, and the life energy that allowed Jixing to live freely and safely for a long, long time without having to be controlled by Qi Nan or become a tool of the protagonist, just by relying on transactions.
The stars try to measure the value of this money.
But on this exile planet, there are people who are willing to sacrifice their lives to snatch every star coin.
But the child's earnest words stunned the audience who were chatting enthusiastically in the live broadcast room.
They understood what Xingxing meant by what she said just now, but they also felt it was incredible and a bit strange, as if they were hit in the heart and were in a trance.
Because the child's tone was so sincere and his slow speaking speed made every word he uttered seem so sincere, even if they didn't look at the expression on Xingxing's face behind the camera at the moment, they seemed to be able to imagine a fair-skinned and well-behaved child pursing his lips and wrinkling his face, looking worried and grateful with a cute look.
It's a bit foul to be so obedient.
After a long while, a flashing top-notch special effects bullet screen with a comet tail slowly passed across the blank light screen:
Plant a star to reward the anchor "Cosmic Starship" x10, and say: My dear, spend all this money, Mommy is not short of money, Mommy will inherit the family's mecha fleet in the future to make money to buy you candy! !
Ten cool spaceships appeared on the light screen one after another, and the gorgeous special effects almost caused serious light pollution to people's eyes.
But this is more like a fuse. Once it is ignited, the reward barrage will explode completely.
Amid the dense reward light effects, a line of bullet comments slowly passed by, answering the child's question just now:
[Baby, all the money in this live broadcast room is for you. We have money, as long as you live broadcast frequently, chat with us, and let us see that you are living a good and happy life, it will be a reward for us.]
Who would do good without asking for anything in return?
But at this moment, rather than any verbal or behavioral rewards, the audience obviously hopes that this small but bright star can keep shining brightly.
The previous rewards were just casually given, just like going to the zoo to watch a monkey show for fun and paying for one’s own happiness.
The rewards nowadays are given sincerely, expressing the hope that this child trapped in the garbage dump of Exile Star can live a safe, stable and healthy life. It is an expression of touching and heartache, and more importantly, it is a blessing for a little life.
Xingxing held the laptop in her arms, tilted her little face upward and stared blankly at the large, densely packed rewards and comments on the screen.
The love of all human beings comes together and turns into the colorful twinkling stars on the screen.
So, the protagonist in the plot who is watched and loved by so many audiences must be very happy, right?
Xingxing thought of the cold yet very polite little boy in her dream.
If Polaris could meet these humans, perhaps it would also become a powerful and dazzling protagonist?
It will become a truly dazzling pole star hanging in the sky.
