Chapter 127 Work Injury
Huo Xiu returned to "Godless World" as a player.
After entering the Garden Town, he came to the back of the Lily Garden and found a new entrance.
That was his garden - now officially renamed the vegetable garden.
"Hey, has the Garden Town map been updated again? There's a new garden."
A passing female insect stopped and started chatting with Huo Xiu in a very talkative manner.
Huo Xiu glanced at him, shook his head slightly, and then quickly closed the door.
"What? Why is it the same as anti-theft? Is it a one-to-many model like before Lily Garden was updated?"
No matter how the female insect outside the door muttered, Huo Xiu could not hear it.
He had entered his former 'home'.
To be honest, during his days as an NPC, this cabin brought him a lot of sense of belonging.
Nothing in the grass or trees had changed, except for a little cow that was angrily nudging his leg.
"Stop it."
Huo Xiu reached out and grabbed the bull's horn, which had grown much bigger, and pressed it in place.
Dark Eyes pawed the ground with his right hoof, obviously very angry.
Even the peaceful pirates came over.
Carlos walked out of the cabin. He didn't need to create a new account and logged in much faster than Huo Xiu.
"Little farmer, if Star Corporation hadn't restored the data, Black Eyes and Pirates would have turned into beef jerky."
However, the little flower hasn't changed much, except that its belly has become smaller.
It seems that those with more fat are more durable at critical moments.
After all, Huo Xiu had been missing for almost a week, and Carlos was almost going crazy.
No one has time to take care of this "vegetable garden" that disappeared out of thin air.
Later, Carlos refused to give up and insisted that Star Company conduct a comprehensive search of the original data, and only then did the animals recover after their satiety level dropped to 0.
Huo Xiu was silent for a moment, and finally went into the vegetable garden to pick some juicy cabbages and feed them to the sulking calves.
Now it was Carlos who was unhappy.
"The purpose of my saying this is not to ask for benefits for the two calves..."
Carlos came closer, holding a bouquet of fresh lilies. "Welcome home, little farmer."
At this time, he stopped calling Dr. Huo.
This small courtyard has a magical charm that makes Carlos feel calm unconsciously.
It's like the soul is stretched out.
He sat on a rattan chair in the yard and watched Huo Xiu tidy up the vegetable garden again.
The sun is warm and the breeze carries the sweet scent of lilies.
"Carlos, come here."
Huo Xiu waved at him.
Carlos stretched his waist and walked over slowly. He was different now. He could walk into the vegetable garden openly and destroy the cucumber flowers without restraint.
The next second, Carlos's rebellious fingers were caught.
Huo Xiu gave him a warning look.
Carlos withdrew his hand awkwardly.
Well, persecuting plants is still not allowed.
But harassing Huo Xiu - harassing his own lord, harassing his beloved insect, is a natural thing.
Then Carlos' fingers, like a light little insect, climbed up Huo Xiu's shoulders step by step.
"Little Bug is coming~"
His hand was grabbed by Huo Xiu again, but this time Huo Xiu did not let go.
The long, powerful fingers opened and wrapped around Carlos.
"I caught it."
The little bug caught it.
Carlos was amused and laughed out loud, and he couldn't help but kiss Huo Xiu's cheek.
"The little bug is here again."
Huo Xiu grabbed his chin and kissed him back.
Carlos's breathing became unstable, and the excessive degree of realism caused the luminous organs to react.
Even though it is not obvious in the daytime, you can still see the light green color.
He rested his head on Huo Xiu's shoulder and complained, "You are such a bad bug."
Huo Xiu laughed.
“Very cute.”
He praised sincerely.
Huo Xiu really thought Carlos was very cute.
"It feels more like home here than on a starship."
After a long moment, Carlos whispered.
Huo Xiu thought for a moment and said to Carlos, "Because it's grounding."
"Huh?" A question mark popped up in Carlos's head.
He doesn't understand what being down-to-earth means.
"Because the land and fruits bring a sense of being grounded."
Huo Xiu said slowly, this is the recessive gene that all Chinese people will awaken when they reach a certain stage.
Before the end of the world, his mother kept talking about moving to a house with a garden so that she could grow some loofahs and cucumbers, as well as some green onions and coriander.
Thinking of the past, Huo Xiu's eyes revealed a hint of nostalgia.
Afterwards they moved out of the compound and lived in a small villa, which had a 200-square-meter garden as their mother wished.
Unfortunately... the end of the world has come.
After the end of the world, the importance of land became more prominent.
It nourishes all life, like the simplest mother.
Carlos seemed to understand.
Huo Xiu smiled and changed the subject: "So, Carlos, do you have a favorite planet?"
"What?" Carlos was stunned. "I own many planets, ranging from A-level to C-level."
"What do you like?"
"...I haven't been there." His tone became a little lighter, "We should-"
Huo Xiu shook his hand and confirmed his guess.
"settle down."
Carlos's green eyes blinked twice, and he suddenly turned his head away.
"That'll require a good search...we fireflies are very picky."
"Um."
Huo Xiu answered.
——
Finding habitable planets is no easy task.
Huo Xiu looked up some relevant information and found that fireflies like to live in humid, warm places with lush vegetation.
They traveled to several planets, but Carlos was not particularly satisfied with any of them.
They either complained about the lack of water resources or the low temperature, and they also crossed out several options for being too modern.
He was dissatisfied with her and even had his eyes on Joel Star.
After all, that is where the Palmer family has lived for generations, and naturally it has the most suitable temperature and natural environment for fireflies.
"But Joel Planet is under the jurisdiction of the Federation, tsk."
Carlos tutted impatiently.
"And it still stinks of the Palmer family."
However, after learning that the bug named Kangman also lived on Joel Star, this guy quickly gave up the idea.
This shows Carlos's jealousy.
During this period of time, Huo Xiu was not idle either.
The reason was that he discovered that the D902 star belonged to Carlos and was one of the trophies he had obtained at some unknown time.
This planet is not very big, and there are magnetic storms around it, making communication and transportation inconvenient.
But Huo Xiu discovered that the soil here was very fertile and the temperature was suitable.
The reason why this place is so backward is, firstly, because of the inconvenient transportation, and secondly, because many exiled pirates have occupied this place.
The third reason is that female insects no longer eat grains, fruits and vegetables frequently, and prefer nutritional supplements processed from star insects.
In any case, Huo Xiu turned his attention here.
As a result, all the exiled pirates were captured by Huo Xiu.
Except for a few pirates who committed serious crimes and were punished, the rest of the pirates who were willing to stay were allowed to reclaim the wasteland, while those who were unwilling to stay were exposed for their crimes.
The main focus is "voluntary".
However, to Huo Xiu's surprise, the process of recruiting the pirates went particularly smoothly, and the pirates led by the fat boss chose to stay.
The fat boss looked at Huo Xiu with a conflicted expression and said hesitantly, "I don't know what's going on, but after you beat me up last time, I feel like my mental state is much better." He, he has lost weight!
"Me too!"
"Me too. I went to see the doctor, and the value has dropped to a safe range."
The federal order is in chaos, and many civilian female insects have become space pirates.
Most of them may have never seen a male insect in their lives, let alone been treated by the spiritual sea.
"We volunteer to work for you, if you can just... hit us up sometime."
A female insect said shyly that she had guessed that the insect in front of her was a genuine high-level male insect.
If they could live with dignity, not all insects would like to live in exile.
At this time, a familiar face came out. He had yellow hair and was the bug that led Huo Xiu that day.
"I'm a good worker! I used to pollinate fruit trees at home!"
After the first insect volunteered, the others quickly followed suit, chattering all at once.
"I can do the pollination job, too. I'm from the butterfly tribe!"
"I am a bee, I can collect honey!"
"I'm a beetle, and I'm great at digging!"
"I, I'm a dung beetle. I can fertilize for you!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the female insects around the dung beetle quickly scattered.
Only this exceptionally strong bug was left standing there with a flushed face and his hands clenched into fists: "I, I took a shower!!!"
When Carlos walked in, he happened to see this scene.
He stood at the door with his arms folded, saying nothing.
Xavi followed Carlos, pushing his glasses up silently.
The importance of the male insect to the female insect is self-evident, and the spiritual tentacles possessed by Mr. Huo Xiu have very special properties.
He doesn't need to use his mental tentacles to enter the mental sea of each female insect, he can use a method similar to "lightning strike" to heal them.
This kind of violent treatment is very effective for mild mental frenzy.
Harvey has collected data on these female insects and found that their υSP values have dropped significantly.
Among female insects, B and C levels are the norm, and the degree of frenzy in their mental sea usually does not reach level III.
This means that Lord Huo Xiu can treat these female insects with high intensity, high frequency and large scale, and gain their absolute loyalty.
This is naturally a good thing, the problem is Carlos...
Can he accept it?
After these recruited pirates received their respective missions, Harvey quietly closed the door and left the space to Carlos and Huo Xiu.
"Dr. Huo, you are so welcome..."
Carlos tilted his head and walked slowly towards Huo Xiu.
"I'm jealous."
"Yeah." Huo Xiu nodded, "So I prescribed...a prescription for you."
"Um?"
Carlos' eyes widened in surprise. Huo Xiu rarely accepted his address as "Dr. Huo", and he would never play "role-playing" with him.
Sometimes the little farmer is too serious...
"Let's get married."
Huo Xiu's expression remained unchanged as he asked the question in a decisive tone.
"What?"
Carlos raised his voice, and his emerald green eyes instantly turned into vertical pupils, not wanting to miss any of Huo Xiu's micro-expressions.
"marry?"
He repeated in disbelief.
Huo Xiu nodded.
"I checked. The Zerg also have a marriage system, but we can't register it with the Federation."
After all, Carlos is a space pirate who defected from the Federation, and Huo Xiu himself is an illegal resident of an alien world.
“So registration will take some time.”
"But I want to start a family with you."
His expression was unusually gentle.
Unlike his cold appearance, Huo Xiu is a person who attaches great importance to family relationships.
This may be due to his loving parents and gentle and brave sister.
Originally, Huo Xiu planned to wait until D902 planet was back on track before opening up marriage registration.
but……
Carlos is an insecure bug, and as his partner, Huo Xiu has the responsibility and obligation to build a harbor for him.
"But I've already prepared the marriage certificate template."
It was very rare that Huo Xiu and Carlos were in the same room and it was Huo Xiu who was speaking the whole time.
And Carlos made no sound at all.
Huo Xiu handed Carlos the template of the marriage certificate.
Carlos took it stiffly.
After a while, he looked up at Huo Xiu and said, "You want to marry me?"
Huo Xiu nodded.
"Yes, I'm proposing to you."
"After the initial construction of D902, if the operation and management model of that planet is feasible, the same management model can be gradually adopted for other planets."
"Since the federation is rotten, a new system should replace it."
"I will do my best to create a more suitable social environment for our children to grow up in—"
As the former lord of a city, Huo Xiu has an extremely strong sense of mission.
He has a deep obsession with a stable and peaceful social environment.
Everyone who has experienced peacetime and then entered the end of the world will have this experience.
Before Huo Xiu could finish his words, he saw Carlos stagger.
"child?"
Carlos said this while subconsciously looking at his flat and firm belly.
Huo Xiu frowned, suspecting that Carlos had gone crazy.
"Carlos, we haven't—"
Carlos quickly followed up.
"I haven't done it yet // What I have done, I should do."
Huo Xiu choked slightly at Carlos' words.
Many times, Carlos's language is always so straightforward.
"Well, so... you agreed?"
Huo Xiu asked, and at this time, Carlos realized that Dr. Huo was not as calm as he appeared.
"Doctor Huo, do you want to take back the prescription you've already written?"
Carlos reacted quickly and pounced on Huo Xiu, his emerald green eyes fixed on the black-haired male insect in front of him.
He is serious, indifferent, gentle and sweet.
"I'm completely cured." Carlos said softly, "Doctor Huo, would you like to check it out?"
"It's not dark yet."
Carlos let out a breathy laugh: "What's wrong, Dr. Huo, can't you find the way?"
"I have...streetlights."
The platinum-haired female insect almost whispered this in the ear of the black-haired male insect.
Huo Xiu was silent for two seconds.
He looked seriously at Carlos, who was looking at him seductively.
"…Do you really think this is sexy?"
Huo Xiu respected Carlos, but despised all of his quirks equally.
"Stop talking."
Huo Xiu lowered his voice and put his fingers against Carlos' lips, applying a little force.
He laughed a little, remembering the strange handcuffs when he first met Carlos.
【Silent love】
"Like before."
“Some things can be expressed in words.”
“Some of this can be done without words.”
——
"Executor, Carlos's spiritual sea has stabilized, and my mission is complete!"
Ome appeared in front of Huo Xiu and came to say goodbye to him.
"Although I still have points remaining in this world, I plan to use them as, uh, emergency savings for the next world."
Just like in this world, it spent two points to quickly transport Huo Xiu's body to this world.
If it is penniless at that time, the executor will be dead!
Huo Xiu looked at the system that suddenly appeared. He was silent for a moment and then asked.
"My old world...how is it?"
Ome looked up the information and replied, "Because you and the Zombie King perished together, along with the deaths of several high-level zombies, the Jiyang Base gained some time to breathe. Two years later, they developed a zombie vaccine, and the human condition is gradually improving."
"But I don't know more!"
"Because the speed of time in the two worlds is not much different, it should have only progressed to this point."
Ome saw Huo Xiu's brows relax slightly.
"Don't worry, after I pass the Lord God's assessment, I will have a lot of points credited to my account. Then I will give you a big gift!" It patted its chest.
"Thanks."
"Then goodbye, Executor!"
"Bon Voyage."
——
"City Lord Huo, who were you talking to just now?"
Carlos walked in from outside, and when he found that Huo Xiu had an extraordinary passion for infrastructure, he decisively changed his address.
"A... friend."
Huo Xiu answered.
Carlos unconsciously pursed his lips when he heard this answer.
When Huo Xiu saw him like this, he knew that he was searching for the enemy in the void again.
He chuckled.
"Vinegar bag."
"Ah~" Carlos said with a long voice, "I prefer being a show-off to being jealous."
"...Your self-awareness is quite clear." Huo Xiu was somewhat helpless.
"Of course."
"It was my friend who asked me to come here." Huo Xiu explained to prevent Carlos from getting jealous.
Because Ome requires not to reveal their identity to prevent being rejected by the world's will, Huo Xiu has always used "friend" instead of the word "system".
Carlos was finally rubbed and changed the subject.
"I have completed the task you assigned to me, so...is there any reward?"
If Huo Xiu wants to transform D902 from a garbage planet into a habitable planet, the first thing he needs to do is to clean up the surrounding environment.
There is a nest of star beasts around this planet, and Carlos went out this time to destroy those star beasts.
"What do you want?"
"I'm hungry." Carlos shrugged. "I want something hot."
"City Lord Huo stays on planet D902 all day, so naturally he doesn't know that some planets are very cold." Carlos' voice was a little bit reproachful, but when you listened carefully, you could tell that he was just being coquettish.
No one could tell that he was the infamous star pirate.
"And the blood of those star beasts is really smelly! They are also very fierce, and I was injured..." He said very aggrievedly.
Carlos said as he lifted up his bathrobe.
His body was covered in blood, so of course he had taken a shower before coming.
"Look—"
He stretched out his voice and pointed at a wound on his body that would have healed in a few minutes.
"It's too shallow to see clearly."
Huo Xiu answered.
At this moment, Carlos suddenly laughed.
A bright green light appeared in the room.
"It's too dark. I'll turn on the light for you." He said softly, "Please come closer. City Lord Huo... is injured at work."
"I want to claim compensation."
“…”
