Chapter 80

The little wolf cub was so scared after being caught sneaking out that he instinctively took his two friends and ran away.

However, they were facing a keeper who could destroy monsters with his bare hands. How could he let them get away so easily?

So when they ran hundreds of meters away and turned to the front of the nursery building, they turned their heads and looked back, thankful that the keeper didn't catch up with them -

the scenery in front of them changed, and the two children who were running suddenly found that the surrounding environment had changed!

And what's even more terrifying is...

they turned their heads and found that the keeper who should have fallen behind them actually appeared in front of them! If they continued to run, they would directly hit the keeper!

The wolf cub braked urgently, and the little white deer also slowed down quickly, and finally -

"Throw it!"

The two finally stopped in front of the keeper in time, but the wolf cub also successfully fell flat on his face, and the little white deer he was pulling behind him also fell on him like a stack of Arhats.

So, the little Langze who was pressed at the bottom let out a scream.

The little white deer quickly got up, and at the last moment, because the wolf cub protected him, Xiao Zhengxing was not injured.

Although he was frightened by this change and his face turned pale, he still got up anxiously and stretched out his little hand to the wolf cub, "Lang...Langze..."

"It's okay, it's okay!"

Little Langze pulled his face out of the mud.

The soft and wet soil was not as hard as the metal floor. He had thick skin and flesh, so even though his face rolled in the mud, there was no sign of injury.

Although he was covered in dirt, he still held the little boy's hand and comforted him, "I'm fine..."

However, when he raised his head and looked at their caretaker expressionlessly, the little wolf cub was stuck in the next sentence.

He almost subconsciously protected the two little friends behind him and stepped forward to say, "I insisted on dragging them out to play. It has nothing to do with Xingxing and Yoyo! If you want to hit them, just hit me!"

The boy stiffened his neck. When the last sentence came out, the wolf cub, who had already recovered his cheerfulness and vigor, was aroused again for some reason.

But under this ferocity, there was also deep fear.

It was like some kind of stress response that was triggered when encountering a similar situation.

Both Xiao Zhengxing and Xiao Lujiao noticed that something was wrong with him. Although

Xiao Lujiao felt that the keeper was not a person who liked to use violence, at this time, he also stood up despite his fear, "No... No! It's me... I want to come out myself..."

Xiao Zhengxing didn't say anything, but just hugged the little wolf cub's arm tightly, and for the first time, his brows revealed a stubborn emotion.

Looking at the three children in front of him, Su Ci slowly stretched out his hand.

The wolf cub's eyes were red. He looked at the hand he stretched out. He bared his teeth pretentiously, but he dared not move at all. In the end, he could only watch helplessly...

That beautiful and clean hand flicked his forehead with its fingers.

"Ouch!"

The wolf cub couldn't help but cover his head.

However, under the stimulation of pain, he could see the person standing in front of him clearly. The boy was stunned, and the hatred and ferocity in his eyes were replaced by confusion.

He rubbed the place where he was flicked. Although it hurt, it was really a piece of cake compared to the beatings he had received before.

The little wolf cub gradually came back to his senses from the past confusion - oh yes, he is now in the nursery, he is now Langze, not the puppy tied in the cage before...

Looking at the young man standing in front of him, he blinked his eyes, forgot the unhappy memories of the past, and then showed a flattering smile.

"Su Su..."

The tender and crisp voice of the boy, without any fierceness, soft, with a bit of coquettish meaning.

Su Ci raised his eyebrows slightly.

He did not mean to blame the children. After all, they were allowed to come out by his acquiescence. As for the reaction of little Langze just now... He looked at the spider leg in his hand.

The giant spider's shell was not purified. Although this level of resentment had no effect on him, the concentration was still a bit high for the cub.

Fortunately, it was not a big problem.

Su Ci retracted his gaze and looked at the dirty little face of the boy. He said with some disgust: "Go wash your face first."

"Okay!"

The little wolf cub responded immediately, and then quickly pulled the still dazed Xiao Zhengxing and ran to the pool.

Xiao Lujiao, who fell behind, looked at the keeper, then at the two little friends, and finally stayed where he was hesitantly, lowering his head with some guilt.

Although the keeper did not blame them, it was precisely because of this that Xiao Lujiao felt guilty.

They did something wrong, sneaking out of the restaurant...

The door of the restaurant was not locked, probably because it was out of order, but that was no reason for them to sneak out.

When Langze said he wanted to go out, he should have stopped him... How could he be so unruly?

Knowing that he was so naughty, would Su Su hate him?

After these thoughts turned over in his mind, tears began to well up in the little white deer's eyes again.

After witnessing the true strength of the breeder last night, the little white deer had more admiration for Su Ci than awe. In his eyes, Su Ci almost overturned his perception of the strong.

It turns out that not all strong people can be seen from their appearance. It turns out that strong people can also be so gentle to a weak person like him...

So he, who originally wanted to form an alliance with the keeper, became someone who wanted to get the keeper's recognition.

But now, it seems that he has messed up everything before he even started working hard... When he realized this, Xiaolu Jiao's mentality collapsed.

"I'm sorry... I know I was wrong..."

The little boy suppressed his tears and lowered his head. The little deer ears hidden in his short silver-white hair drooped down, and the whole person looked wilted.

Su Ci looked at him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The little white deer is very intelligent. Although young, it has already shown enough wisdom. However, it also tends to overthink. It is not as silly as the little wolf cub and does not take things to heart.

Su Ci thought for a moment and said, "You don't need to apologize."

Hearing this, the little white deer, who was still sad, was startled.

He raised his head and saw the young man's hand falling down. He did not move, but watched the warm palm pressed on the top of his head and rubbed it hard.

This somewhat intimate action dispelled all his uneasiness.

Then, he heard the keeper say, "From today on, you can go anywhere in the nursery."

The little white deer could never have imagined that the keeper would say such a thing...

He stared at Su Ci in a daze and listened to him continue, "You can come and go in the room at will, you can visit other cubs' rooms, you can choose to go to the activity room or play outside."

"As long as it doesn't affect others and as long as you don't destroy things, you can do whatever you want."

At this point, Su Ci paused and added, "Of course, only during the day."

Although there was a restriction in the end, this was already a very shocking message for the little white deer. With every word Su Ci said, his expression became more dull.

Until the end, after digesting these words, he asked foolishly: "Really... can I?"

Can they really go wherever they want, without being locked in the room every day, without being watched wherever they go, and play wherever they want?

Such freedom is something that the little white deer can never imagine no matter how hard he tries!

Su Ci nodded lightly.

Thinking of Yan Ping and Gu Qingchen, he hesitated for a moment, and still explained to them: "Restricting your freedom before was a kind of protection for you."

This is actually a helpless act. The frequency of the cubs' frenzy has approached the endurance limit of the 24th base. Confining them in the room can not only reduce their destructive power, but also reduce the harm to other cubs and base members.

But this helpless move does not mean it is correct.

Being in a closed environment for a long time is not conducive to the growth of the cubs. If this continues, the result will eventually become like No. 2.

These cubs need guidance and unblocking, and for Su Ci, this is just a piece of cake.

"Now, it's no longer necessary." Su Ci said.

The little white deer looked at him and asked stupidly: "Why?"

"Because..."

Su Ci slightly curled the corners of his lips and whispered, "I'm here."

The little white deer looked at the smile on the young man's face. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart, but when he really heard such a "promise", his heart was still shaken.

He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Because he felt that all languages ​​were so pale and poor, and the vocabulary he mastered was not enough to express his mood at the moment.

In short, looking at the keeper standing in front of him, he inexplicably felt a sense of confidence, a sense of security that he had never felt since he could remember, buried in his heart like a seed.

While Su Ci was talking to Xiao Lujiao, the little wolf cub had already pulled Xiao Zhengxing to the edge of the pool. When

Xiao Langze heard Su Ci asking him to wash his face, he knew that the keeper was not angry, so he naturally had no psychological burden, and his eyes couldn't help but glance around.

The first thing that caught his attention was naturally the two large pools in front of him.

The two pools were about ten meters long and wide, bottomless, and filled with transparent gelatinous substances. There were beautiful patterns carved on the pool walls, and there were lights shining continuously.

The light red light he had just seen seemed to be emitted from these patterns.

The pools were full, reflecting sparkling patterns in the sunlight, which was very beautiful. It didn't seem so weird looking at it this way.

"Xingxing, there are two pools here. Follow me and don't move around. Be careful when you go in."

Little Langze took good care of little Zhengxing. Knowing that he couldn't see, he always kept him by his side. "Can you swim? You look like a cat, right? Cats shouldn't be able to swim, right?"

Little Zhengxing listened to him quietly, holding his clothes tightly with his little hands.

He also heard that the keeper was not angry, so he was already relaxed. But... why did Langze react like that just now?

Will he be beaten if he sneaks away?

This was something that little Zhengxing, who had lived in a nursery since childhood and had never been exposed to the dangers of the outside world, could not understand. The child inevitably had some doubts in his heart.

However, he did not ask.

The little wolf cub didn't know why he reacted so strongly just now, but after being tapped on the forehead by the keeper, he had already sobered up, and now he has forgotten everything that happened just now.

He has a natural trust in the keeper, so when he saw the pool water, he squatted down without thinking, ready to reach out and scoop up water to wash his face.

After they came over, A Yan stood aside and watched. Seeing that the little wolf cub was about to reach into the pool water, he finally couldn't help but speak.

"Wait a minute."

A clear and peaceful boy's voice sounded from the communicator.

"Who?"

Xiao Langze was startled when he suddenly heard a stranger talking. He stopped his hand, raised his head and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, he couldn't help but approach Xiao Zhengxing in confusion.

"Xingxing, did you hear someone talking just now?" he asked in a low voice.

Xiao Zhengxing nodded, "Yeah."

Although he couldn't see with his eyes, his hearing was very sensitive. Not only did he hear it, he also roughly determined the man's position, but...

"Can't you see him?" he asked in a low voice.

"Yeah, I didn't see anyone..."

The always courageous little wolf cub looked at the empty muddy land around him, and then looked at the two pools with red light, and suddenly felt creepy again.

However, he didn't turn around and run away in fear as A Yan thought.

"Are you...are you a ghost?" The little wolf cub looked in the direction of A Yan and asked tentatively.

Seeing that he was obviously very scared but still trying hard to appear brave, A Yan couldn't help but tilt his head. The feeling of communicating directly with others was a new experience for him.

He couldn't help but look at Su Ci.

And Su Ci was also looking at him. He naturally heard what A Yan had just said.

Su Ci didn't object to this. In fact

, he gave this communicator to A Yan for this reason. He felt that it would be a good thing for A Yan to spend more time with these cubs.

And now, A Yan has taken his first step.

After seeing what Su Ci meant, A Yan calmed down and continued to input text into the communicator.

"I'm number one," he said, "you can also call me, A Yan."

From the moment Su Su told Yan Ping his name, A Yan knew that Su Su encouraged him to establish contact with other people in the base-of course, on the premise of ensuring safety.

The three children who suddenly ran out in front of him were all named by Su Su. To some extent, they were trusted and loved by Su Su.

As long as Su Su liked something, he would like it too.

A Yan continued to say to the little wolf cub: "The concentration of pollutants in this pool water is very high. You'd better not touch it."

This is also the reason why he warned.

The little wolf cub and the little white deer were already stunned.

"Number One?"

"A Yan?"

They looked at the empty pool and said in disbelief: "It turns out that there is really a number one!"

It is no secret that there is a cub in the nursery that no one has ever seen.

So, after the initial shock, the little wolf cub quickly accepted the existence of A Yan.

"So your ability is invisibility, right?" With its keen sense of smell, the little wolf cub almost did not misjudge A Yan's location after locking onto him.

At this moment, three children, or to be more precise, four children were staying together by the pool.

Not far from them, the keepers were busy again.

It's not that Su Ci didn't want them to help, but the actual situation did not allow it.

First, they were too weak, and second, the remains of the giant spider carried a strong contaminant that ordinary adults could not bear, let alone these cubs who were troubled by the power of their blood.

Just now, Xiao Langze became aggressive when he approached. If they were really asked to deal with it, he would probably have to waste his soul power to comfort them.

In this way, the gains would not make up for the losses.

So Su Ci had to deal with the spider meat himself.

Although they could not help much, the little wolf cubs were reluctant to leave, so they sat in a row beside them obediently.

The little wolf cub's dirty face had been washed clean.

It was A Yan who went back to the dormitory and fetched another bucket of clean water for him to wash.

Naturally, when the little wolf cub and the little white deer saw a bucket of water floating in front of them, they were stunned.

Only Xiao Zhengxing, because he couldn't see it in the first place, seemed very calm.

They sat side by side, and little Langze turned his head from time to time, unable to help but look at where A Yan was.

Although he still couldn't see anyone, he could smell A Yan's breath, see A Yan's shoe prints on the mud, and faintly hear the subtle sound of fabric rubbing.

This is so fun!

After knowing that A Yan's ability was invisibility, little Langze was almost envious.

"This ability is so cool!" He said with admiration, "Then A Yan, can you show me what you look like?"

All the cubs were very curious about No. 1, whom they had never seen before.

Xiaolu Jiao, who was still in shock, couldn't help but look over when he heard it, and his eyes were wide open, obviously not wanting to miss it either.

As for Xiao Zhengxing... He squatted beside the little wolf cub, head lowered, his little hands still caressing the muddy ground, marvelling at the strange touch, and immersed in his own little world again, contented.

Facing two pairs of expectant eyes, A Yan could only ruthlessly refuse.

"No."

In fact, he didn't know how to make others see him. Now the only one who could see him was Su Su.

Maybe he has to wait until he has learned all the divine texts and becomes really powerful, then he can make himself visible?

The little wolf cub was a little disappointed, but he also knew that he couldn't force it.

After all, they just talked today, and their relationship is not that good yet. There will be plenty of opportunities when they become friends in the future!

"Where do you live? Do you need to eat?" Xiaolu Jiao also started talking, expressing his curiosity about No. 1's food and accommodation.

"Well, I live with Susu." A Yan said.

He does live with Susu now, this is the truth, and he has no intention of showing off.

However, when they heard this, the two children couldn't help but exclaim, and even Xiao Zhengxing temporarily gave up playing in the mud, raised his little head and turned to him.

The eyes of the three children were sparkling, and Xiao Bailu's face was full of envy.

"Then Susu must like you very much!"

Hearing this, A Yan curled the corners of his lips unconsciously. He suddenly felt that these three children were really cute. No wonder Susu was willing to give them names.

"So what do you like to do?" Little Langze asked again.

"Writing, cooking, and farming." A Yan counted on his fingers the things he liked to do, and then picked a few to answer.

"Can you write?" Little White Deer asked quickly, "How many words can you write?"

"Almost all of them." A Yan said.

Because of the presence of Little Langze and the others, he couldn't concentrate on studying the formation, and he was a little bored, so he simply picked up the metal rod and started writing on the mud.

He wrote the names of the three children on the ground one by one.

A Yan's handwriting was very beautiful, and even if it was written on the mud, people could see his skills, which was not much worse than the handwriting of the breeder.

Little Langze had already forgotten how to write his own name, but Little Bailu, as he looked at A Yan's handwriting, the envy on his face gradually turned into admiration.

"You write so beautifully... You can actually write so many characters! How did you do it?" Little White Deer always likes people who are full of knowledge.

A Yan thought for a moment and said, "When you are as old as me, you can also write so many characters."

He didn't know how he did it, but he would learn it after reading more, right?

A Yan's words did not arouse any suspicion.

After all, as the No. 1 in the brooding house, A Yan must have stayed in the brooding house longer than No. 2, so he must be older than all of them.

In addition, the voice that A Yan chose was also a mature timbre of a 17 or 18-year-old, so the children naturally could not imagine that he was actually younger than they looked.

When Little White Deer was impressed by A Yan's knowledge of characters, Little Langze asked another question.

"What are cooking and farming?"

Even the well-informed Xiao Langze couldn't figure out what these two meant.

"Cooking means making delicious food."

"Wow! Delicious!"

Xiao Langze's eyes lit up when he heard about food, "What delicious food can you make?"

"A lot, barbecue, stir-fry..."

A Yan listed the food he had cooked, and every time he mentioned one, Xiao Langze's eyes brightened a little.

"You are really amazing!"

The little wolf cub looked at him, wanting to ask if he could make it for him to try?

But A Yan obviously didn't see it. He acted like a real big brother and patiently answered their questions one by one, "As for farming..."

He thought about it and edited a message to Su Ci.

Su Ci, who was half-closed his eyes and mechanically processing spider meat, yawned and nodded at him after scanning the message he sent. After

getting his consent, A Yan said, "Come with me, I'll take you to see the seedlings."

He flashed to the land where the plants were planted, and then made a little noise to attract the attention of the three children.

"Here." He said on the communicator.

After discovering that A Yan had run so far in the blink of an eye, Xiao Langze and Xiao Lujiao looked at each other and could see the surprise in each other's eyes. It's

really fast!

At this speed, they can't catch up!

The little wolf cub, who was originally unconvinced by anyone, is now somewhat convinced. This number one... is really strong! And he seemed to know a lot, no wonder Su Su liked him so much...

"Are you guys coming over?" A Yan's voice came again.

"Come on!"

The little wolf cub responded immediately and decided to go see what farming is like.

It must be fun!
