Chapter 113



Chapter 113

In the restaurant, the two cubs were eating quietly.

Number Six did not sit with Xiao Xuewei. Perhaps it was because his talent was related to the soul, so after the souls were reintegrated, he could clearly perceive other people's emotions.

At least judging from the emotions emanating from Xiao Xuewei, she might not welcome him for the time being.

Number Six was a little confused about this.

She clearly agreed that robots are not real lives, so why was she sad and angry in the end?

He thought while eating.

The two of them ate at different speeds. Xiao Xuewei was slow and methodical, and every movement exuded elegance and propriety, while Number Six was much more casual.

So by the time he finished eating, Xiao Xuewei had only eaten one third of it.

Number Six hesitated for a moment, and finally did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he picked up the box that Xiao Xuewei had given him, opened it and took a look.

At first glance, it was a hand-folded paper box containing five candies of different colors and shapes. This was the first time that No. 6 had seen such an exquisite thing.

He couldn't even tell what it was, but just by smelling the sweet aroma of the candy, he felt his saliva starting to flow again, even though he was already full.

So is this food?

Number Six picked up a candy wrapped in white paper with snowflakes printed on it. He pinched it with his fingers and found that under the light, the candy wrapper sparkled with bright spots of light, which looked particularly beautiful.

"What's this?"

He looked at the girl sitting on the other side of the table and couldn't help but ask.

Xiao Xuewei's emotions came and went quickly. At this moment, she felt that she had suddenly given No. 6 a bad look, but she didn't know how to break the silence.

Hearing Number Six's question, she quickly turned her head to look and saw that he was holding a candy wrapped in white. She said, "This is snowflake candy."

"Snowflake candy?" Number Six looked at the candy in his hand. "Is it edible?"

Xiao Xuewei was stunned. "Haven't you ever eaten candy before?"

"Um."

Number Six didn't think this was an unanswerable question, but after he answered it, he clearly felt that Xiao Xuewei's mood had changed a little.

The emotion was so subtle that he couldn't tell what kind of feeling it was.

Xiao Xuewei had already stood up and walked over. She took the snowflake candy from his hand, unwrapped it, revealing the soft and sticky candy covered with white powdered sugar inside.

"This is delicious, would you like to try it?"

The little girl has curved eyes and two snow-white rabbit ears hanging behind her head, which make her look particularly soft and sticky, just like this snowflake candy.

Number Six, who was about to stuff the candy into his mouth, realized after seeing her actions that this candy, like fruit, had to be peeled before eating.

He picked up the candy and tentatively put it into his mouth.

The soft candy coated with frosting quickly melted in the mouth like snowflakes after being put into the mouth. It was sweet with a slight coolness, a taste and texture that No. 6 had never tasted before.

His eyes couldn't help but light up.

Xiao Xuewei smiled sweetly, "Isn't it delicious?"

"Hmm!" The young boy nodded vigorously, "It's really delicious!"

"As long as you like it."

Xiao Xuewei grinned and pointed at the four remaining candies in the box, introducing them to him one by one. "This one is a chocolate bean. It's sweet chocolate wrapped with crispy cookies. It tastes especially delicious when chewed..."

These were things that No. 6 had never come into contact with before, and there were many nouns that he didn't understand. After he asked what these nouns meant, Xiao Xuewei looked at him with softer eyes.

She never knew that there were cubs in the world that had never eaten sugar.

Even when they were in the welfare home, the cubs received a piece of candy every day, and it was a different one seven days a week.

It is also because of this that the candies she stored in the box have been preserved until now.

However, at this moment, she learned from No. 6 that these things that she took for granted were not natural.

This planet is short of resources and filled with dangerous red fog, in which there are terrible monsters.

For people working on this planet, it is good enough to have enough to eat. Snacks like candy are not necessities, so they are not provided to the cubs at all.

When Xiao Xuewei heard about those red fog monsters, her face turned slightly pale, and even Xiao Feichu shrank into her pocket and hid herself.

Seeing their frightened looks, Number Six said, "Don't worry, we have Susu. She's safe in the nursery."

He had seen how Susu fought. Such a terrifying mud monster was solved so easily, which shocked and impressed him.

As for Xiao Xuewei, she recalled the breeder's slender figure and really couldn't imagine that he was so powerful and could even gain No. 6's trust.

But when she thought about herself...she felt that it was not strange.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for telling me this, Liuliu, you are so nice." Xiao Xuewei said with a smile.

Number Six looked at her and felt like he had to say something, so he said, "Well, thank you for the candy, too."

Also, knowledge related to candy.

Seeing her mood improve, Number Six felt there was no need to stay any longer. He closed the paper box again, then stood up and said, "Take your time eating. I'm leaving now."

Looking at the young man's departing back, Xiao Xuewei opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't have the courage to try to keep him.

After his back disappeared at the door, she returned to her seat and continued to eat the remaining nutritious jelly. Although it was really not tasty, since she knew that resources were scarce here, she should not waste food.

But……

It's really hard to eat qaq

Do I have to eat only nutritious frozen food every day? How does Liuliu eat so fast and cleanly?

Number Six didn't know about Xiao Xuewei's troubles. Instead of taking the elevator, he went up the stairs to the third floor, and then squatted in front of the breeder's room door like Number Two did before.

He still retained some of the habits of a little monkey. To be honest, when he just woke up in the morning, he felt very uncomfortable.

The first is a change in perspective.

He felt that everything around him had become smaller, just like when he had just turned into a little monkey. It took him some time to adapt to the changing world.

Then, my body became much heavier.

When he turned into a little monkey, he was not only agile, but also his body was as light as a feather in his spiritual state. After regaining his physical body, he obviously felt that his movement speed had slowed down.

but……

Thinking of what the breeder said, that his body had greater potential and he would be able to achieve better growth in the future, No. 6 suppressed the panic in his heart.

Maybe it was his own body, so it didn't take long for him to regain his old feeling.

Number Six squatted outside the door, waiting quietly. Time passed minute by minute, and after a while, the tightly closed door opened.

There was no one inside the door, but Number Six stood up quickly anyway.

There was an empty space in front of him, but he still called out hesitantly, "Brother Ayan."

"Um."

A clear young voice rang out softly, "Susu is still sleeping. Come in and wait first."

"OK."

Number Six responded obediently, then tiptoed into the dormitory. He had been here several times before, but this was the first time he was here using his original body.

He looked at the dishes flying silently in the kitchen and seemed to see a busy little figure.

He was probably the only one in the entire nursery who knew that the real "Brother Ayan" was actually a little boy who looked only about four years old.

He looked smaller than all of their cubs.

However, No. 6 would not look down on him because of this. Due to his talent, he could feel that there was an extremely powerful soul hidden in this small body.

It's just that this soul seems to be in a special state.

Number Six didn't quite understand, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Anyway, no matter from which perspective, there was nothing wrong with him calling A Yan "brother".

"Will you come help?"

At this moment, he heard the young man's voice again, "Langze and the others will help with the food processing. They can get two pieces of meat every day. Later, when the plants are ready to be harvested, there will also be vegetables and fruits."

Number Six nodded and walked over to help.

Even without these rewards, he would help as long as Brother Ayan needed it.

"Now all the cubs have names, and Susu is even going to make a nameplate for each one."

A Yan, like a real older brother, said to him softly, "Let Su Su give you a name later."

Of course, he said this to No. 6 because he knew Susu would be happy to do so.

Number Six thought for a moment and said, "Can I still call myself Liuliu?"

"It can be your nickname." A Yan said.

"good."

A smile appeared in the boy's eyes. Thinking of Xiao Xuewei who seemed to say thank you anytime and anywhere, he paused and said, "Thank you, Brother A Yan."

"You're welcome."

Then, Number Six felt a small hand land on the top of his head and pat it gently.

"Continue cooking." A Yan said.

"Yeah!" Number Six nodded vigorously, feeling a little happy.

Soon, they prepared a table full of dishes, and there were noises coming from the quiet bedroom. The sleepy-eyed breeder soon appeared at the bedroom door.

"Susu, good morning." A Yan said first, "It's time to eat."

"Well, good morning." Su Ci flashed to the dining table, took a deep breath, and showed a satisfied expression.

At this time, No. 6 called out to him.

"Awake? How do you feel?" Su Ci poured a cup of heated spiritual water, took a sip, and finally looked a little more energetic.

Number Six replied obediently, "I felt a little heavy, but I've gotten used to it now."

"This is normal, no need to worry." Su Ci nodded, put down the cup, reached out and pressed on No. 6's head to check him.

Number Six felt as if he had turned back into a little monkey. He stayed where he was, docile and motionless.

"The soul has been completely integrated. Once it is coordinated with the body, your problem will be basically solved." Su Ci withdrew his hand and said so.

Of course, the bloodline issue naturally exists.

Perhaps after a while, No. 6's bloodline power will manifest again, and he will begin to split his soul again. However, this time with the correct guidance, the previous situation should not happen again.

After Su Ci finished speaking, he went to wash up and then started to eat breakfast.

Number Six, who had already eaten his fill, did not sit around the dining table and watch. Instead, he walked into the living room and first looked at A Yan's table.

However, he could no longer sleep on it, so he sat down on the sofa and waited for the breeder to finish his meal.

A Yan looked at No. 6's back, then looked at the food in front of him, and couldn't help feeling a little self-doubt.

Is it that the food he cooks is not delicious enough?

Number Six was the first cub to face his cooking and walk away on his own initiative. Although that was also because he had already eaten breakfast, if Langze was here...

Thinking of the little wolf cub who became particularly active when food was mentioned, A Yan shook his head.

At this time, he heard Su Ci ask, "Ayan, did you water the Selaginella this morning?"

A Yan was stunned and realized that he had forgotten such an important thing.

"Not yet. I'm going now."

As he said this, he was about to flash to the teleportation array, but he stopped where he was and couldn't move. He couldn't help but look up at the opposite side.

Su Ci untied the restraints on him and said, "Don't worry, let's talk after dinner."

Only then did A Yan breathe a sigh of relief.

Number Six, who was sitting in the living room, overheard their conversation and couldn't help but become curious about what Selaginella was. He had also noticed the two extra empty cans on the coffee table.

His eyes were drawn to the contents of one of the cans.

It was a plant with two leaves, red and green intertwined, and small green leaf tips emerging from the top.

This plant couldn't be described as beautiful, but it was undoubtedly much better than when he first saw it!

That’s right, Number Six has recognized it - this is the tenacious little wild grass that Susu found in the riverbed.

When I first discovered it, this little wild grass was so fragile and looked like it would die at any time, but now it is showing vigorous vitality.

Even though No. 6 didn't know how to plant, he knew that this little weed was alive!

And he also did not forget that Susu told him that this little wild grass could help them change the world.

Although he didn't know how this weak little grass could change the world, since it was Su Su who said it, he believed it without a doubt.

It must be because he was so ignorant that he couldn't imagine it, right? Just like the candy Xiao Xuewei gave him, it was something he had never imagined before.

Number Six stared at the small wild grass and soon noticed the subtle emotional fluctuations emanating from the plant.

That was something he had never felt from plants, at least not from the plants in the nursery.

Moreover, the emotional fluctuations of the little wild grass are somewhat complicated. It seems to be in pain, but it also has a positive and uplifting power.

It seems to have encountered some difficulties and is trying hard to overcome them.

He seemed to sense its tenacious will, and could not help but think of the poem Susu had read: The grass on the plain withers and grows again every year; wildfires cannot burn it all, but spring breezes bring it back to life...

Number Six was attracted by the small wild grass and stared at it without blinking, gradually forgetting the passage of time. He only came to his senses when Su Ci finished his meal and walked towards him.

"Do you like it very much?" Su Ci asked.

Number Six paused, then nodded, "It seems to be almost healed."

"Yeah, maybe in two days."

Su Ci nodded and looked at another can that was ignored by No. 6. The small moss there had also recovered its vitality, but it was seriously polluted by the resentment, so it would probably take some time to recover.

Thinking of A Yan's reminder just now, No. 6 couldn't help but say: "Su Su, can you give me a name?"

Su Ci nodded, "Yeah."

A Yan, who had cleared the dishes, also ran over, and Su Ci had already taken out a pen and paper and handed it to No. 6, asking him to write his real name pattern.

Number Six did as he was told.

Of course, he also felt a bit surprised when he saw that the tip of the pen seemed to have its own consciousness and was sketching on the paper.

After he put down his pen, Su Ci looked at the pattern, frowned slightly, and finally picked up the pen to write a word.

"Leave."

A Yan looked at the word and felt that the meaning seemed not very good, but when he thought about No. 6's talent of soul separation, he felt that it seemed quite appropriate.

Although his soul has been reintegrated now, a part of it will leave him in the future.

When No. 6 heard this pronunciation, he didn't think of the word "li" (separation), but rather...

"Is it the Li in Liliyuanshangcao?" asked the young boy.

"Yes." Su Ci nodded, "Lili, the appearance of lush vegetation."

After hearing his explanation, Number Six's eyes changed when he looked at the word. It can be seen that he was very satisfied with the word.

"Lili..." Number Six asked, "So when you said that weeds can change the world, did you mean to turn that barren land into lush vegetation?"

Number Six itself is not stupid. After the human soul returns, the spirituality also returns.

Su Ci nodded. "Yes, wild grass has strong vitality. Even if there are only a few conditions suitable for survival, they will seize this opportunity and live on tenaciously."

"Wild grasses like these are very suitable for surviving in the wilderness and are very important for changing the world."

Listening to Su Ci's words, No. 6 couldn't help but imagine the future, when the whole world became as vibrant as a plantation, and he couldn't help but reveal a yearning look.

“I like that name,” he said.

Lili, the appearance of lush vegetation.

However, Su Ci did not nod. He thought about it and added another word in front of Li - it is best if only he knows his real name. Although this is the Dharma Ending Age, he has become accustomed to being cautious.

"Lu Li." Su Ci said, "It means brilliant and glorious."

He had also read the information that Gu Qingchen sent him. Lu was also the surname of No. 6's mother.

The heroine who died on the battlefield should not be forgotten by her son.

Number Six was a little stunned. Lu... was his mother's last name...

The cubs in the nursery were sent here at a very young age and basically have no concept of their parents. If it weren't for the lion brother and sister, they might not even understand the concept of blood relationship.

So No. 6 didn't know what "mother" meant to him, and when he was wandering around the base as a little monkey, he had never come into contact with any related real objects.

However, when he heard this term, he felt something touched in his heart, as if a vague memory emerged from the depths of his mind.

That must have happened when he was very young, and his memory is very vague.

But it still made him realize that there had indeed been such a person in his life, and that person... made him feel very close.

Probably... someone very important to him.

Thinking of this, No. 6 nodded slightly. He did not feel aversion to taking his mother's surname.

Moreover, these two words combined also mean brilliant and glorious...

Besides plants, his favorite thing is sunbathing!

"Well, I'll just call myself that." Little Lu Li said, "Thank you, Su Su."

Su Ci just smiled, then tore off the piece of paper with his real name and pattern on it, folded it carefully, and handed it to him.

"Please keep it carefully. It will be useful for your future cultivation."

He didn't say much. After all, these kids were still a long way from that time.

Little Lu Li took the folded paper, carefully took out the candy box from his pocket, and put the origami inside.

He thought about it, then took out two more candies, one for Su Ci and one for A Yan.

"This is the candy Xuewei gave me. It's delicious." The young boy said, not feeling sad at all about losing two candies he hadn't eaten.

"Have you seen her?" Su Ci asked.

"Yes, I met her when I was going out. She said it was a gift for meeting her." Little Lu Li replied.

Su Ci had just eaten and was not that interested in the candy. He used his spiritual sense to scan and saw that the little girl with rabbit ears had arrived at the green area and was distributing candy boxes to the cubs.

He then gave the candy back to Number Six and said, "Maybe we'll have some too."

Seeing this, A Yan returned the candy to him.

Little Lu Li thought about it and agreed. He saw that Xiao Xuewei was holding a big paper bag in her arms, which was full of candy boxes like this.

He felt that she would send it to more than just him.

Finally, little Lu Li put away all the candies.

After naming Number Six, Su Ci stood up and said, "Would you like to go to the riverbank together? While you were dormant, we found another Selaginella tree."

"Selaginella, also known as the immortal grass." A Yan added.

Little Lu Li's eyes lit up. "It sounds powerful. Is it by the riverbank?"

"Yes, I just planted it yesterday."

Su Ci walked towards the teleportation array, and little Lu Li followed curiously. Then he saw a circle with mysterious pictures and texts painted on it under his feet, and it glowed slightly.

By the time the light disappeared, the scenery before his eyes had completely changed.

He went directly from the breeder's dormitory of the nursery to the river bank, but the changes on the river bank were completely beyond his expectations.

Little Lu Li looked at the water that appeared in the riverbed at some point, and the cliff rocks moistened by the water, which seemed to be covered with a layer of green stuff, and couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

What surprised him even more were the creatures swimming happily in the river.

What are these things? They don't look like monsters...

He turned around and was about to ask, but saw that the young man had walked behind a rock not far away, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

Thinking of the immortal grass, little Lu Li quickly ran over. After going around the rocks, when he saw the scenery in front of him, he couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement.

I saw a green plant nearly half a meter high growing in the pile of rocks, and around this plant, there were small green buds emerging.

This is actually a new Selaginella seedling!
