Chapter 35
At the urging of Number Eight, Su Ci continued speaking.
However, this time, he did not use magic, but began to teach them about the structure of the flute, its specific functions and sound-producing techniques.
The so-called sound cultivation, to put it simply, is someone who controls sound and uses it to perform various means.
Su Ci did not intend to teach the two cubs from the most basic level, but to integrate sound control techniques into their performances, allowing them to learn to control sound imperceptibly.
This teaching method is naturally simpler and more crude than breaking down and mashing all the principles into pieces and then feeding them to them, and it is much more difficult to learn.
Perhaps only children who are gifted and have a certain understanding of music can learn it in a short period of time.
But then again, if one is truly dull, why waste time on this? Wouldn't it be better to find another suitable path?
And once these two children really figure it out on their own, they will definitely be able to make rapid progress in the practice of music.
If you can't figure it out... then at least learning how to play a simple tune should be no problem.
The old man from the Yin Sect also said that humans who practice music can cultivate their character and refine their sentiments even if they don't understand the methods of music. For these two cubs who are troubled by the power of their bloodline, this is a hundred benefits with no harm.
Perhaps because Su Ci didn't have any expectations for the two cubs, he didn't have much psychological burden in teaching them, and the class seemed relaxed and enjoyable, like a game.
Not to mention No. 3, even No. 8, who likes to move around and can't sit still, accepts such courses well.
And he finally got the flute back, but when he got it again, his understanding of this "toy" had undergone earth-shaking changes.
If originally, he wanted to learn to play the flute mainly to make fun of Number Seven and get back at him, now he has truly developed an interest in the flute as an instrument.
It’s just a hollow tube, so how can it produce such beautiful music?
Number 8 didn’t figure it out, but that didn’t stop him from studying hard.
Life in the brooding center lacks entertainment. Originally, there was only fighting and playing with toys that were not very novel, but now there is a new kind of "game".
Maybe interest is really the best teacher, so he learned very well and made a sound the first time he blew it.
Of course, you are only blowing out sounds. Not to mention a complete song, if you want to blow out the accurate pitch, you have to continue practicing.
As for Number Three, with whom he was unilaterally being angry... Number Eight finally curled his lips at his pitiful blind appearance, and after observing and studying him, he handed the flute to him.
Number Three took the flute and groped around the long tube with his little hands.
He could only observe the outline of objects through his mental power, and the details were not clear, so he still had to use his hands to touch and feel.
The child held the flute, carefully feeling the cool touch, with cautious movements and a bit of piety.
It's like touching another world.
Number Eight, who was standing next to him, said that he would no longer care about him, but after handing over the flute, he still couldn't help but squinting his eyes and secretly observing Number Three's actions.
Finally, on second thought, No. 3 couldn't see, and the breeder was eating potato chips after teaching them and didn't care about them, so why couldn't he watch openly?
He wanted to see how the little blind boy No. 3 would learn on his own without his teaching!
So, Number Eight turned around, crossed his arms, and stared at Number Three.
When he saw the little boy slowly touching each hole with his fingers, the impatient boy couldn't help but tap his arm with his index finger.
How long will this take?
Finally, Number Eight couldn't help himself and reluctantly went over and started explaining to the little guy in a bad mood. He even held the child's hand to help him adjust his posture so that he knew how to hold the flute.
I have to say that the little wolf cub is quite smart when he is serious. He remembered all the key points that Su Ci just explained, and he taught No. 3 in a very professional manner.
When Su Ci saw this, he felt that it had nothing to do with him.
Unless one is truly gifted, it is impossible to learn a musical instrument in one day. In that case, there is no need for him to stay here. Just let them explore and practice for the rest of the time.
If the two kids are really that talented... then doesn't he need to stay here?
Su Ci finished the remaining potato chips, put the packaging bag into the space button, and got up and left with peace of mind.
When I arrived at the door, I saw 4586 standing there, with a pair of mechanical arms holding a heart. Even the pattern in the electronic eyes turned into two red rotating flowers, with an exaggerated expression of relief and intoxication.
The shape of the rotating little flowers is quite similar to the small yellow flowers on its body.
Perhaps, No. 5 drew flowers for the robot nanny based on the flower patterns seen in the robot nanny's electronic eyes?
Su Ci did not disturb 4586's intoxication. Although he thought it was a bit strange for a puppet to make such an expression, could this be the current habit of the human race?
After all, according to the common sense in his mind, the behavior patterns of robots are generally set in advance by the manufacturers.
Su Ci didn't want to disturb the nanny robot, but the nanny robot had no intention of letting him go.
After Su Ci passed by it, 4586 immediately restrained its intoxicated expression, turned around and asked him in a cute voice: "Su Su, it's work time now, where are you going?"
"Medical Purification Department."
Su Ci replied casually, then entered the elevator without looking back. 4586 didn't stop him, probably thinking that he was going to pick up No. 2 and No. 4.
However, before leaving the nursery, Su Ci went back to the dormitory first.
In the dormitory, A Yan was lying on the small table, writing stroke by stroke.
The handwriting of the divine text he wrote became clearer and more complete, and most importantly, as he wrote more successfully, the divine text gradually took shape in his mind.
A Yan was so serious and focused that he didn't notice that a faint fluorescent light appeared on his body while he was writing.
Under the cover of this fluorescent light, his slightly pale face regained its rosy color, and even the red bloodshot in his eyes faded a lot.
All this is changing quietly.
At this moment, a special wave coming from the bedroom broke A Yan's state of complete oblivion.
He raised his head from the notebook and looked around in confusion.
The breeder hasn’t come back yet… A Yan withdrew his gaze in disappointment and looked at the exercise book in front of him, which was filled with words on the page.
Compared to yesterday, his handwriting is much better! Moreover, after writing for more than an hour, he not only doesn't feel tired, but also feels more and more energetic.
I don’t know if I can get praise from the breeder today... A Yan looked at the words he wrote and thought with some anticipation.
At this moment, a strange wave came from the direction of the bedroom again.
A Yan took a look and didn't pay any attention to it immediately.
He put down his homework book, quickly walked to the sweeper, pressed the switch, waited for the sweeper to start working, and ran to the bathroom.
The pajamas thrown in in the morning had been washed and dried. He took the clothes out, shook them vigorously to make them smooth and fluffy, then folded them and placed them on the rack so that the breeder could wear them when needed.
While he was doing these things, the fluctuations coming from the bedroom became more intense, and a sense of anger could be vaguely felt.
I don't know what the book is angry about...
A Yan frowned, put his clothes away, and then appeared in the bedroom.
He has now become very proficient in using the ability to flash and teleport.
A Yan came to the bedroom and saw the book embedded in the wall. It was flickering with a faint red light and struggling to come out.
When A Yan appeared, the work manual struggled even more violently, but unfortunately, no matter how hard it struggled, it couldn't get out of the wall.
When it was about to come out, a layer of light golden light would appear on the wall, firmly blocking it back, and no matter how it struggled, it would remain motionless.
A Yan stared at the work manual.
As the manual struggled, a strange yet strangely familiar wave came over him again...
So strange, what is this?
Because it was not high enough, A Yan went out and brought in a chair, then stood on the back of the chair, stood on tiptoe, and tilted his head back to see the books inside the wall clearly.
"Bang-bang-bang-bang-bang"
The work manual had been struggling. It had been embedded in the wall tightly, but now the metal walls on all four sides were deformed and tiny gaps appeared.
A Yan stared at it, looking at the red light from a close distance. The red in his dark red eyes gradually deepened and spread, and a fierce and cold emotion surged into his heart.
Quiet!
A Yan suddenly reached out and slapped the cover of the book.
That person doesn't like noise!
His hand was very small compared to the thick breeder's manual, but after he slapped it, the manual settled down.
The golden light that blocked the work manual also enveloped the child's palm.
Feeling a soothing force, A Yan paused, and the ferocious expression on his little face slowly calmed down.
He blinked, confused about what had just happened, and then he noticed a faint light emerging from under his palm that was pressed on the book cover.
A Yan seemed to have realized something, and he closed his fingers and slowly pulled the ball of light out of the book.
After the glimmer of light left, the work manual, which had been so powerful, obviously became weaker and dimmer than when it was suppressed by Su Ci.
The unformed soul fire flickering in the book seemed like it would go out at any moment.
A Yan looked at the small ball of light on the palm of his hand. The light was very small and faint, pure platinum, without any impurities, and there was no red light that would make people feel bad at first sight.
What's this?
A Yan looked at the ball of light curiously, poked it with his fingers, and then pinched it, splitting the already small ball of light into two, one large and one small.
A Yan held two balls of light, one on the left and one on the right. He felt the familiar fluctuations from the light balls again, but the fluctuations in the manual were gone.
So, what he sensed was actually this ball of light?
Thinking of this, A Yan lowered his head slightly and was about to take a closer look when he saw the work manual on the wall suddenly vibrate vigorously as if it were a last ray of light.
Immediately afterwards, the two balls of light in A Yan's hands seemed to be sucked away by some suction force.
A Yan subconsciously reached out to grab it, but he forgot that he was still standing on the chair.
"Bang--"
With A Yan's sudden movement, the chair tilted and he lost his balance and fell to the ground.
A Yan couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
He finally caught the larger ball of light on the left, while the ball of light on the right, which was smaller than a fingernail, fell back onto the cover of the book and merged into the book.
Then, the work manual fell completely silent and dared not make any more noise.
A Yan stared at the book vigilantly. After a long while, he did not see any movement from it. The work manual stayed quietly in the wall, like an ordinary book, without any abnormality.
He then rubbed his bumped head, got up from the ground, remembered something, and looked down at his left hand.
Just now, when he tried hard to grab the ball of light, it seemed as if his hand also generated suction, and when his palm touched the ball of light, it directly merged into his palm.
A Yan looked at his left hand. It was still thin and small, with rough skin and some tiny scars that looked like chapped skin.
However, he didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that the scars on his hands seemed to have faded, and a warm current came from his left hand and gradually spread to his whole body.
It feels very comfortable, like taking a bath... The place where I just fell doesn’t hurt anymore?
"Ayan?"
A young man's gentle voice came from outside, and A Yan suddenly looked towards the door.
It was the keeper back! He immediately forgot about his work manual and the ball of light, stepped out, and appeared in the living room in the next second.
A Yan looked towards the door, but did not see the breeder. Turning around, he saw the young man standing by the desk, reading his homework book.
Thinking of what had just happened, he couldn't help feeling guilty, and slowly moved to Su Ci's side.
Su Ci put down his homework book and looked down at the child. Compared to when he left, the little guy's spiritual aura was obviously much stronger, and...
He put his hand on the top of the child's head, felt the difference, then squatted down and looked at the child with a little surprise. Was it his illusion?
Why did Ah Yan seem to have grown taller? Su Ci observed him carefully for a few times and found that he seemed to have grown a little taller. Even his baggy trouser legs seemed to fit him better.
But overall, the increase in height is not large and can be ignored.
Facing the keeper's scrutiny, A Yan felt uneasy. When he was hesitating whether to tell the keeper about Shu Ling, the young man squatting in front of him had already stood up.
Su Ci picked up his homework book again, flipped through it, and said, "You are indeed very talented in studying divine literature. You have made such great progress in such a short time."
He has grown taller, which is probably due to the learning of divine texts.
"That's great, I'm really looking forward to your growth."
Then, Su Ci put A Yan's homework book into the space button, looked at his rosy little face with a shy and cute smile, and was about to say a few more words when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the clay can on the coffee table.
“Long…long…”
The consciousness emitted by the spirit seed became weak again. It was estimated that it would start to feel hungry in a while.
Su Ci touched his chin, walked over, and took out the bottle of multi-functional maintenance liquid from the space button.
Although solid fertilizers are useful, this multifunctional curing liquid should not be wasted.
With this idea in mind, after taking out the curing liquid, Su Ci opened the bottle cap according to the instructions printed on the bottle, poured about 5 ml, diluted it with clean water, and evenly poured it on the soil in the can.
When the liquid mixed with the curing solution falls into the soil and slowly seeps in...
“Ohhhhhhhhhhh——”
"ah!"
The spirit seeds, which had been weak at first, suddenly let out extremely joyful cheers, and were obviously much happier than when solid fertilizer was applied.
"Long! Long! Long, long, long!"
"Long! Long! Long, long, long!"
The slogans that had been slow and sounded laborious suddenly became clear and crisp.
A Yan came over out of curiosity, feeling the joy of the little spirit seed, and suddenly felt that it should not be far from sprouting!
Su Ci, however, was not very happy.
Although it has been proven that the multifunctional curing liquid is indeed useful and very useful, the points required for this curing liquid are twice as many as those for solid fertilizer.
Moreover, the amount of curing liquid is less than that of solid fertilizer.
According to the needs of spiritual seeds, it should be more than that of ordinary plants - A Yan just applied fertilizer in the morning, and now before the morning has passed, its voice has become weak, proving that the fertilizer is not enough.
Ordinary plants only need to be fertilized once a day, but spiritual seeds may need more than three times.
A bottle of maintenance liquid contains 200ml of fertilizer. Apply 5ml of fertilizer three times a day. If there are two spiritual seeds, then a bottle of maintenance liquid will only be enough for seven days at most.
Moreover, as the spiritual seeds grow, they will definitely need more nutrients, and the soil, which already lacks fertility, cannot meet their needs, so more fertilizer is needed.
Looking at the spirit in front of him who was shouting slogans with great joy, Su Ci pursed his lips.
Unfortunately, the little spirit species cannot sense the outside world yet, so naturally it cannot know Su Ci’s emotions.
"Long! Long! Long, long, long!"
"Long! Long! Long, long, long!"
It continued to call out with full energy, and just listening to the sound made people feel that the world was full of hope.
Su Ci slowly exhaled and decided to wait until all the fertilizer was used up.
Then, Su Ci took A Yan out of the dormitory.
After experiencing yesterday's bloody rain, Su Ci was not very comfortable leaving A Yan alone in the nursery.
A Yan is still too weak, and because he has obtained symbiotic simulation, he can be sensed by the outside world. It is too dangerous to leave him alone in the nursery. It is safer to keep him by my side.
Before leaving the nursery, Su Ci went to water the spiritual seeds in the ground with multifunctional maintenance liquid.
This spirit seed also let out a cheer that was even more joyful than before.
Just when A Yan thought it would finally grow up well, it fell silent again and slept even more soundly...
Humph, this little lazy thing, you can’t expect it to grow well!
Affected by yesterday's bloody rain, when Su Ci walked out of the nursery gate, the alarm at the door issued a warm reminder.
"The current concentration of pollutants in the air is high. Please strictly adhere to the principle of not going out unless necessary. If you need to go out, be sure to take personal protection measures."
With this prompt tone, Su Ci walked out of the door and brought A Yan to the floating bus stop.
After a day and a night of operation, order has been restored in the base, except for some damaged buildings and roads which have not yet been completely repaired.
After a while, the hover bus arrived.
The car was empty, with no other passengers.
Su Ci only remembered to contact Gu Qingchen after he got in the car. He made a voice call and the other party answered the call quickly.
"Keeper Su, I was just about to contact you." Gu Qingchen said, "Number Two's condition has stabilized. Please find time to go to the medical department to pick him up today."
Su Ci didn't contact him for the two cubs, but when he heard him say that, he casually responded and asked, "What about number four?"
"Number Four..."
Gu Qingchen paused, "Number Four needs further observation. I will contact you when his condition stabilizes."
"oh."
Su Ci nodded, then got to the point, "Doctor Gu, do you know anyone at the cultivation garden?"
"Huh? What do you want to do with the people from the cultivation garden?" Gu Qingchen asked curiously.
Su Ci said calmly, "Get some seeds."
Spiritual seeds were too difficult to grow, so he wanted to try ordinary seeds to see if they would be better.
The earth needs vitality, and ordinary plants can do the job.
Gu Qingchen, who was sitting opposite, couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard Su Ci's words. He didn't expect that this breeder Su was so stubborn. After experiencing the bloody rain yesterday, he still had such leisure time.
Moreover, he actually thought of going to the plantation.
However, as a fellow enthusiast, seeing how persistent he was, Gu Qingchen seemed to see his former self, and his impression of Su Ci became better.
This quality of not turning back until you hit the wall is still very valuable.
"I know him. I'm planning to go to the plantation. I'll get some for you when I get there. What kind of seeds do you want?"
Given Gu Qingchen's status as a purifier in Base 24, it would not be a problem for him to ask for some seeds, and he was also quite familiar with the people in the cultivation garden.
Su Ci: "I'm on my way to the plantation."
"Is that so..." Gu Qingchen was a little surprised, "Okay then, when you get there, just wait for me at the door, I'll be there soon."
So, the two of them ended the call after making an appointment.
A Yan sat obediently beside Su Ci, listening quietly to their conversation.
He thought of the dumb seeds in the garden, so should he plant them in the ground as well? But didn't those seeds only germinate in water?
A Yan was a little confused, but when he thought that this was what the breeder was supposed to do, he felt that... these seeds would definitely germinate!
He shook his short legs, feeling very happy but also a little nervous.
On the one hand, it’s because of the book spirit, and on the other hand… is it really okay for him to not practice the divine text but run out to play?
A Yan tilted his head to look at the breeder, and then saw that Su Ci had closed his eyes without knowing when.
The soft light from the car shone down obliquely, as if all the light was concentrated on him, fading the rapidly receding scenery outside the window into shadows.
The breeder is so good-looking... A Yan stared at the scene blankly, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
Is the keeper sleeping?
That can't wake him up.
A Yan withdrew his gaze, but couldn't help but secretly glance at Su Ci, then rubbed against him quietly, and finally got close to the young man.
He tilted his head carefully and rested it gently on Su Ci's arm.
Sniffing the warm and pleasant scent of the breeder and feeling the closeness between the two, A Yan slowly exhaled.
He really enjoyed being with the breeder, and he had forgotten about the uneasiness he had just felt because he hadn't studied.
Anyway...
Anyway, it was the breeder who brought him out~
