Chapter 09

As soon as the word "fall in love" appeared, the atmosphere in the entire prison suddenly changed.

Team leader Mo was really surprised, "Xiaohua, you...are you in love with Shenyuan?"

When the other vanguard members who were waiting not far away heard this word, they were strangely silent for a moment. After thinking about it, they found it surprisingly reasonable.

The abyss and the little flower in front of him don't look like creatures of the same species that can coexist, so there is no other explanation except that a special relationship has developed between them.

Although it is a bit strange that the Abyss is in love with a flower, both of them have actually evolved into human form. What's more, the little flower demon was raised by their team leader Mo himself, so she was half grown up in the human base.

Lin Ling had no idea that his words would cause humans to make up so much information. He quickly denied it, "I didn't! I'm not! I'm just curious, there's nothing else to it!"

The little flower demon tried his best to maintain his good friend's innocence, but it seemed that no one really believed it.

When he got the answer he wanted, he excitedly returned to Shi Changyuan.

"Have you finished reporting?" Shi Changyuan looked at Lin Ling who jumped in front of him and took his hand very naturally.

Humans peeking behind gates and under surveillance: !!!

"Yeah, it's done!" The little flower demon had no objection to Shi Changyuan's action, and kissed each other affectionately very naturally.

"I met Sister Mo who often gave me flower fertilizer. She is a very good scientist. She looks so cool in her white coat. She also researched a new flavor of flower fertilizer for me before."

"I'll introduce you to him if I get a chance!"

The little flower demon was led by the Abyss, walking step by step outside the human base. The little flower demon was chirping the whole time, and the Abyss responded to almost every word, without showing the slightest impatience.

Lin Ling looked up at Shi Changyuan beside him, blinked, and began to ponder his own thoughts.

He just asked Team Leader Mo what it's like for humans to fall in love. Although Team Leader Mo herself has never talked about it, as a top scholar, she has a rich reserve of theoretical knowledge.

She pushed up her glasses and said, "Love is a relationship between people based on mutual admiration, driven by people's basic desires and psychological needs."*

Seeing that Lin Ling seemed to understand these theories, Team Leader Mo changed to the simplest and most popular words, almost emphasizing, "In short, Xiaohua, you have to remember that falling in love is not just about holding hands, kissing and going to bed."

“A complete relationship consists of intimacy, passion, and commitment. All three are indispensable.”*

"Especially the promise, otherwise it would be hooliganism!"

The little flower demon automatically filters out the parts it doesn't need and only extracts what it needs.

Being in love involves holding hands, kissing, and going to bed. He secretly compared these two things in his mind, and then he became even more confused.

It's obvious that he and Shi Changyuan only have one!

"What are you thinking about?" Shi Changyuan looked at Lin Ling's changing expressions and pinched the soft flesh on her cheek, rubbing it gently.

"I'm just trying to find a random excuse to give the little parrot a beating." The little flower fairy said mischievously.

"good."

Shi Changyuan did not ask how the useless parrot had offended him, but if Lin Ling wanted to beat it up, then Shenyuan was the best thug, looking like a tyrant who helped his relatives but did not help his family, and was an accomplice to the evil.

The two of them walked through the human base. There was no large-scale destruction that humans were worried about. Only Xiaohua beside him occasionally saw something and showed interest, and the abyss would immediately take it into its pocket.

But Xiaohua has a stronger sense of morals and is unwilling to "buy for free" with Shenyuan. He pulls Shenyuan's sleeve, and Shenyuan has no choice but to compromise.

The Abyss seemed to be able to take out the things he had swallowed before out of thin air and put them in Xiaohua's arms, and then Xiaohua would barter with the human base.

If the time and location were not wrong, anyone who watched this surveillance footage would think that this was just an ordinary human couple with too good looks having a sweet date.

In the monitoring station of the Seventh Base, all fifteen members of the Vanguard Team gathered together and watched all the footage of Shen Yuan and Xiao Hua from their appearance to their departure. Then the entire monitoring room fell silent.

"You guys... told Xiaohua that Shenyuan was only here to look for seeds. Is there anything you want to discuss?" Team leader Mo spoke first, breaking the silence.

They called themselves the vanguard team, but in reality they were just a suicide squad. When the abyss waves approached quickly today and finally appeared inside the base, they were already prepared for total annihilation.

But I really didn't expect...

It is indeed strange that an abyss that devours life wants to grow a seed of life.

“Is this something difficult to think about?”

"I think Xiaohua is the seed lost in the abyss." One of the young men plucked his yellow hair angrily, "Sister Mo watered and fertilized it, and it sprouted and bloomed. Isn't that normal?"

"Otherwise, why would the Abyss be so nice to him?"

"If we start with that innocent-looking little flower and build a friendly relationship with it, can't we solve this world-class disaster?"

Others: …?

"You think too simply."

Team leader Mo sighed and was not so optimistic. She stared at the surveillance camera for a long time, and recalled that she had bravely followed Xiaohua and tried to observe the abyss from a close distance.

When Xiaohua walked out of the prison gate and jumped towards Shenyuan, Team Leader Mo saw the emotions in Shenyuan's eyes with her own eyes. She could not deny such pure emotions.

She finally made a similar conclusion as the young man, "But it's not completely impossible."

“It has to be observed and evaluated.”

…

The little flower demon has been feeling very troubled lately. He always feels that someone is following him stealthily.

It's not some other creature, but a human being, a person who is even more timid, cautious, and fragile than him, a real human being.

But these humans would not appear in front of him. They would just follow him from a distance, or play with a robotic bird that could fly into the air on the city wall. They had no intention of coming to say hello to him.

Lin Ling looked at the mechanical bird buzzing towards him, put on his straw hat without interest, turned his head away from them, sat in the shade behind a large rock at the junction of the abyss, and continued with his work.

A few days ago, he used the things given by the Abyss to exchange with an empty stall in the base for a small picture book about weaving, a bunch of colorful ropes and a small bell.

That small picture book contains many knitting tutorials. The little flower fairy plans to learn them carefully and knit some beautiful gift for Shi Changyuan.

He thought for a long time, and when he finally saw the black shadow on his wrist, he decided to give Shen Yuan a bracelet with small flowers!

Good friends should be neat and tidy!

"Lingling, the sun has changed direction."

A familiar voice came from above Lin Ling's head. When Lin Ling raised his head, he met a pair of deep, dark eyes.

The little flower demon was immersed in his own world and did not notice Shi Changyuan approaching, nor did he notice that the sunlight was shining on him.

Lin Ling quickly stood up, picked up the small mat under his butt, changed his position, and continued to hide in the shade of the big rock.

He looked at Shi Changyuan, and took out a round cushion of the same style but several sizes larger from somewhere, and placed it beside himself. Then he looked at Shi Changyuan, patted him, and invited him warmly, "Would you like to join me?"

"With this, I won't hurt my butt when I sit on the ground!"

Shi Changyuan smiled and sat next to the little flower demon.

The human body in the abyss is much taller and more majestic than the little flower demon. Even when sitting down, his head is taller than Lin Ling's, and his legs when stretched out are also longer than Lin Ling's.

Lin Ling looked at the long arms and legs of the abyss with envy in his eyes. Whether it was animals, plants or humans, they all seemed to want to be big enough. After all, in a fight, the bigger the size, the more powerful it was.

But the most intuitive feeling of the Deep Sea's size is that it serves as a cushion, which is quite comfortable!

Whenever the little flower demon felt lazy, she would use Shen Yuan as a cushion and lean on Shen Yuan's body limply as if she had no bones. As long as Shi Changyuan stretched out his hand to embrace her, Lin Ling would feel like she was being held in his arms.

"Put your hand out."

Lin Ling didn't think there was anything strange about this posture. He confidently adjusted himself to the most comfortable position. Then he looked at the wrist stretched out in front of him, took out the flower rope that he had not yet finished weaving, loosely wrapped it around it, and then adjusted the tightness to the appropriate degree.

"Okay, I'll take note. I'll give it to you once I've finished making my flower bracelet!"

After the little flower demon finished speaking, she pulled the rope back from Shi Changyuan's wrist.

"Do you still want to wait?" Shi Changyuan immediately grabbed the end of the hand rope and asked, "Is this not possible?"

"No." The little flower demon poked Shi Changyuan's hand holding the rope, trying to snatch the ugly hand rope back from the other party's hand, "This is a failure."

"I want the first one." Shi Changyuan still didn't give up.

"When I finish weaving it, that will be the first one." The little flower fairy used her sweet words, which were super coaxing skills, "I won't give those ugly bracelets to other neighbors and friends."

"You're the only person I want to give a bracelet to."

"Before you, I would never give anyone any knitting, even if it was a failure."

Shen Yuan had to admit that he was really fooled, but he still insisted that the little flower fairy hand over all the failed products to him for processing.

"It can be placed in the abyss as a souvenir."

Shi Changyuan loosened the rope, grabbed Lin Ling's hands, pried them apart and stretched them out, checking all the little flower fairy's fingers one by one to make sure there were no injuries caused by weaving these things, and then slowly spoke.

"These are all made up by Lingling."

Lin Ling wanted to laugh. He tilted his head and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a few strange "clicking" sounds, which immediately attracted the attention of two people.

Lin Ling and Shi Changyuan turned their heads and looked to the side, and found that the human's mechanical bird was stuck in the branches.

Shi Changyuan looked at the machine, recognized it as a human product with audio and video recordings, and his face darkened.

So a black shadow just flashed across the human screen, and then the screen went out.

On the wall of the human base, the two young men holding telescopes who were responsible for observing the movements of the Abyss and Xiaohua suddenly looked unhappy. They uploaded all the data they had obtained before, and then took out the walkie-talkie to report, "We have been discovered by the Abyss."

In the intercom at the monitoring station, in addition to the voice of Team Leader Mo, there was also the alarm sound of the monitoring fluctuation instrument, foreshadowing the emotional fluctuations in the abyss.

Team Leader Mo: "The Deep Abyss may issue a warning or counterattack, you should return to the monitoring station first!"

Humans still have some understanding of the abyss, but before they can leave the top of the wall, the abyss has already appeared at the gate of the human base.

The alarm on the intercom became louder.

The two vanguard team members on the city wall looked at the figure in front of the gate, and a great fear arose from the bottom of their hearts, shrouding everyone's heart.

That sense of oppression was like humans facing all kinds of unstoppable natural disasters, which came to them step by step with a force that humans could not match.

Just when the two Vanguard teammates were seeing black in front of their eyes, a head suddenly popped out from behind the abyss. The face was delicate and beautiful, and it was wearing a straw hat that was not woven well but was covered with small white flowers.

"Are they the ones doing the peeping?!"

The human heard the little peanut behind the abyss speak angrily, but even if it was angry, the voice was still soft.

"That's too bad!"

"Don't flowers and plants have any privacy?!"

One of the team members was the first to react. His voice was hoarse and his legs were trembling. He looked at the person behind the abyss and said tentatively, "Sorry..."

"We will delete the video now..."

"Not enough!"

The little flower demon, who was relying on the power of others to bully others, glanced at Shen Yuan and saw that Shen Yuan was also looking at him, as if asking for his opinion. He suddenly felt swelled up.

Lin Ling acted like a little rights defender and said firmly, "We must file a complaint! We must pay compensation! We must reflect on our actions!"

Xiaohua's voice was transmitted to the surveillance station through the intercom, and everyone suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. At least judging from Xiaohua's personality, she would not do anything too extreme.

The little flower demon blinked, and looked back and forth between the two of them. Finally, her eyes lit up and fell on their chests, "I want that——"

He pointed at the intercoms hanging on the chests of the two people, his eyes full of yearning, and then whispered behind Shi Changyuan, "I've seen this before. Even if the distance is far, you can still talk to each other."

"There are exactly two of them, one for you and one for me."

"This way, no matter where you are, I can find you right away when I want to."

Shi Changyuan originally wanted to say that the black shadow could help him find Lin Ling at any time, but he did not think about how the little flower demon would find him.

This thing is just right.

Shi Changyuan nodded and agreed very much.

Seeing Shenyuan nodded, the two team members immediately took off the walkie-talkie, handed it forward, and kindly told Xiaohua how to use it.

Xiao Hua was very satisfied holding two walkie-talkies and criticizing and educating them, "You should reflect on this matter and review it carefully! I will come to you in two days to ask for your apologies. You must not pretend to obey and disobey in secret and refuse to change after repeated admonitions!"

The two humans dared not stop and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, that's it."

After saying that, Xiaohua held the walkie-talkie, held Abyss, and left the human base, leaving behind two humans who were able to escape from Abyss for the first time.

When the two team members returned to the surveillance station, they saw Team Leader Mo deleting the footage they had worked so hard to capture.

"Sister Mo, are you really deleting it? This is all information that proves that the Deep Abyss can communicate and is provided to the peace faction."

"Of course, since we have already reached a deal, we must be honest with each other."

Team leader Mo glanced at the two people who seemed to be hesitant to speak, and said without changing his expression, "Why, do you think that you can fool and deceive them just because they are not human?"

Team leader Mo chuckled. "Humans are no longer at the top of the food chain in this world. If we still refuse to let go of our pride, we will get into trouble."

The two team members shuddered, and immediately took out paper and pen, and started writing their apologies. They even counted the number of words, fearing that the other party would think they were not sincere enough because their words were not as many as the other's, and then they would stop writing.

"But it's not all bad. Although the video has been deleted, we have obtained more powerful data and can even complete the safety assessment report."

…

The people in the surveillance center were in fear for several days, waiting for the reappearance of Shen Yuan and Xiao Hua, but the two never got close to the human base again. However, the voice of Xiao Hua Yao could be heard from time to time on the walkie-talkie.

Xiaohua and Shenyuan's life seems to be particularly simple and comfortable. Every day, she either asks you if you have gotten up or if you want to go somewhere to play. Moreover, when Shenyuan goes to the river to fetch water, Xiaohua asks him where he has been over and over again.

The weather at the end of the world is always extreme. It was still hot a few days ago. In order to grow a flower, I had to go to the abyss to water it three or five times a day. Now the sky is dark and there have been several continuous thunders, which is the prelude to a rainstorm.

In the gloomy sky and strong wind, Shi Changyuan slowly pushed open the door of the surveillance station.

Under surveillance, the dark figure came into the monitoring room unhindered.

No one could stop him. They could only wait with bated breath and silence for him to push open the last door that separated them.

Everyone tensed up, trying to guess what the Abyss in front of them was going to do in this stormy night.

As the two were in silence, the walkie-talkie in Shi Changyuan's pocket suddenly started buzzing, and then the voice of the little flower demon shouting was heard from inside.

"Shi Changyuan, have you met Sister Mo? Remember to say hello to her for me! And I gave them five more days to write the apology letter."

"Oh, it's going to rain soon, you need to come back soon..."

Suddenly, the solemn and almost suffocating atmosphere was broken. Shi Changyuan looked at everyone who was tense and alert, then slowly and reservedly looked at Team Leader Mo, and nodded.

That’s all I have to say hello and ask questions.

Then, Shi Changyuan stretched out his hand to the two humans and took the things that Xiaohua had previously entrusted to him.

The two humans trembled and placed the same 30,000-word review in front of the Abyss, then looked down at the Abyss, and then turned and left without saying anything.

People whose hearts are about to stop breathing: ...taking deep gulps of oxygen.jpg

So on this sleepless night of storm, the human pioneer team submitted a very professional plan to save the world to the headquarters.

"Save the World with Love Brain"
