Chapter 82

Looking at the red-faced little Zhengxing, and then at the wolf cub next to him who was also looking forward to it, A Yan couldn't help but pause.

It was really hard to say no to a child who was so eager to help him, so he moved his fingers lightly and operated the communicator.

"Yeah, sure."

After getting his consent, the two children showed joy on their faces, and even Xiaolu Jiao was happy for his little friend.

"Great! We can come out to play tomorrow too!"

The little wolf cub cheered directly, but as soon as he said his thoughts, he realized something and quickly changed his words, "No, I can come to water the seedlings tomorrow!"

He was so guilty that his eyes were darting, for fear that A Yan would think that he wanted to come out to play instead of really wanting to take care of the seedlings, and would not bring him along.

Fortunately, A Yan didn't say anything to him.

"Then you guys should come here with Lu Jiao tomorrow at 7 o'clock on time."

"Okay, okay!" Xiao Langze nodded, and did not forget to correct him, "Lu Jiao's nickname is Yo Yo, Yo Yo is more convenient!"

A Yan glanced at the little white deer, and seeing that the little boy's eyes were also bright and expectant, he changed his words: "Yeah, Yo Yo."

The little white deer grinned and showed a shy smile. He had a natural admiration and admiration for "Brother A Yan" who was knowledgeable and friendly.

If only Brother A Yan could teach him to write!

As for Xiao Zhengxing, his performance just now seemed to have used up all his courage. After A Yan agreed, he hid behind Xiao Langze again and hid himself.

At this time, A Yan spoke again: "Then let's number these seedlings first."

He took out a can from the space button. This kind of box is made of special materials. It is not only strong and wear-resistant, but also waterproof and high-temperature resistant. The most important thing is that it can be cut with scissors.

As the first step to start work in the future, A Yan took out two scissors and asked Xiao Langze and Xiao Lujiao to cut the box into small squares.

For sharp tools, whether it is the nursery or the welfare home where Xiao Bailu stayed before, the control is very strict, so the two little guys are also in contact with scissors for the first time.

Watching the little wolf cub pick up the scissors, A Yan said with some worry: "Using tools is to make work more convenient, not to hurt people."

Faced with his repeated emphasis and instructions, Xiao Lujiao nodded obediently, and Xiao Langze also nodded his head repeatedly to show that he understood.

A Yan then handed the cutting work to them.

Being entrusted with an important task for the first time, both Xiao Langze and Xiao Lujiao were very attentive. After quickly mastering the use of scissors, they sat quietly on the mud ground beside them and cut the cans into small pieces. Although Xiao Zhengxing

couldn't do it himself, he stayed beside them obediently and used his mental power to observe the work of his two friends.

And A Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at them for a while, then withdrew his attention and turned his gaze to the seedlings in the field.

Thinking of the bloody frost flowers last night, some worry appeared on the child's face. He glanced at the three children, then disappeared from the spot, and when he reappeared, he had come to Su Ci's side.

The young man sat cross-legged beside the pool.

He half-closed his eyes, as if taking a nap, but his hands did not stop moving. The water in the pool disappeared and was filled again. Pieces of spider meat flew into it and were purified by soaking in the clean water.

Seeing the young man's tired and sleepy face, A Yan felt a little distressed.

He leaned over, tentatively stretched out his little hand, touched the young man's cheek, then lowered the volume of the communicator and whispered: "Su Su, how about taking a break first?" Su Ci,

who was taking a nap, opened his eyes dazedly.

He pulled down A Yan's hand that was stroking his cheek, held the child in his arms, rested his chin on the top of his head, and then rubbed the child's furry ears with his cheek, with an intimate and natural behavior.

He yawned and said, "It's just the last bit, it will be done soon."

Ah Yan then obediently hugged him as a pillow, and then talked about how he asked a few children to help with farming.

Being so close, he certainly couldn't hide what he did from Su Su.

Sure enough, Su Ci responded lightly and said lazily, "You can make the decision on these."

He originally wanted to train the children in the nursery to be future helpers. After all, his soul power was very precious, and the inheritance from the old guys in the past was also good things. Since he gave it to them, they naturally had to give something in return.

It was just farming, but for these energetic kids, it was also a good game project.

Hearing the young man's support, A Yan couldn't help but grin, revealing a soft smile on his face, without any trace of the calmness and restraint he had just shown when facing the wolf cubs.

"Well, I will teach them well." A Yan said seriously.

Su Ci couldn't help but touch the child's head. He didn't know if it was because A Yan chose a more mature voice. He closed his eyes at this moment, listening to him speak, and the image of A Yan that emerged in his mind vaguely turned into a teenager of seventeen or eighteen years old.

The boy bent his black and red eyes and looked at him with a smile, straightforward and pure.

Strange, but unexpectedly pleasing to the eye.

Su Ci couldn't help but open his eyes, lowered his gaze and looked at the little ball in his arms, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

A Yan...

is he really a new soul?

"Su Su, can you teach me how to set up a spirit shield?" At this time, A Yan's voice rang again, interrupting Su Ci's thoughts.

"Hmm?"

"Now that there are more seedlings, the original spirit shield is not enough." A Yan expressed his concerns, "and we also need a formation that can keep the temperature constant."

The spirit shield can isolate the blood rain and blood frost flowers, preventing the seedlings from being directly eroded by extreme weather, but the temperature cannot be adjusted by itself.

When the temperature drops, you can still use a constant temperature ball, but what should you do when the temperature is high? I don't know when the next extreme weather will be, and what type of weather it will be?

Now all these have to be prepared in advance, just in case.

Otherwise, if extreme weather happens again, the seedlings of these common plants may not be able to withstand it.

A Yan expressed his thoughts. He turned down the volume, just enough for Su Ci to hear but not too noisy.

Su Ci narrowed his eyes again and rested his chin on his head.

A Yan has grown a lot since they first met. As time goes by, he reveals his personality day by day. He is smart, serious, careful and steady.

Su Ci can actually sense it.

A Yan doesn't look like a real child.

He himself has experienced the stage of being born, and his ignorant spirit is not like A Yan.

But, so what?

Su Ci folded his arms, rubbed his cheek on A Yan's furry ears, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

No matter what his past is, A Yan is A Yan, and this will not change because of anything.

"In addition to the spirit shield and the formation, do you have any other ideas?" He waited for A Yan to finish speaking before he spoke slowly.

Other ideas...

A Yan thought for a while, then said, "Can we build a greenhouse like a nursery?"

This seems to be a more permanent solution, because there are various monitoring equipment in the greenhouse, temperature regulation is the most basic, and it can also block wind and rain and cope with various types of extreme weather.

"Yeah."

Su Ci responded softly, and then said, "I know about this, I will think of a way."

"Okay."

A Yan calmed down and let Su Ci hold him obediently until the wolf cubs cut the labels, then he carefully withdrew from Su Ci's arms and flashed in front of the children again.

"Brother Ayan, we have finished cutting. What should we do next?" The little white deer asked after neatly arranging the folded labels.

Ayan took out a pen from the space button and began to write the numbers on paper. Then he inserted the written labels next to each seedling.

There were a total of thirty-six ordinary plant seedlings, which Ayan divided into three parts and gave them to the three of them. As for the two small spirit buds and the star chain fruit vine, Ayan would do it himself.

Because of this distribution, a sense of responsibility arose in the hearts of the three children.

This was something they had never felt in the past.

Starting tomorrow, they will be responsible for these seedlings! Any small mistake on their part could lead to the death of these fragile little lives, so they have to be extra careful!

And A Yan, without any instruction, also proposed a reward mechanism.

"Whoever takes care of the best growing seedlings will get a delicious treat." A Yan said, "I will make it myself."

Although he has no ingredients now - the spider meat is for Su Su, he doesn't think he can use it as a reward, but there is still time, he can think of a way.

And such motivation will naturally have the greatest effect on the little wolf cub.

He shouted happily and said, "Don't worry, brother A Yan, I will definitely work hard to make the seedlings grow up quickly!"

A Yan nodded with satisfaction.

There was still time left, but the little wolf cub unexpectedly didn't use it to play. He ran to Su Ci's side happily. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the young man dozing with his eyes closed, and he hurriedly covered his mouth.

Su Ci didn't really fall asleep.

When the boy ran over, he had already noticed it. He didn't open his eyes to look at him, but just slowly said, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Langze's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "Su Su, I thought of the homework you left for me!"

"Oh?" Su Ci finally opened his eyes .

"It's the rules, right?" Xiao Langze said, "You took advantage of the base's rules, so you didn't have to fight, and let those people send No. 4 out obediently, right?"

Su Ci showed an approving look, "Yeah."

"Then what is this rule?" Xiao Langze asked curiously.

Su Ci said softly, "Without the keeper's permission, no one else can take the cubs away from the nursery."

Xiao Langze looked at him in a daze.

Sensing the young boy's eyes, Su Ci paused, "What's wrong?"

Little Langze came back to his senses and shook his head subconsciously. He didn't know why, but when he heard the keeper say this, he inexplicably felt a strange emotion in his heart, as if... he was protected and felt very safe.

This emotion was very unfamiliar to the little wolf cub, but he found that he liked this feeling very much.

"So you can continue to teach me to play the flute?" Little Langze took out his bamboo flute from his back and said to Su Ci with a somewhat flattering smile on his face.

In terms of Little Langze's personality, he is actually a person who can hardly stand loneliness, but in learning to play the flute, he has shown enough persistence and perseverance.

Even Xiaolu Jiao couldn't compare to him in this regard.

Su Ci didn't refuse.

So, Xiaolu Jiao and Xiao Zhengxing also gathered around to listen to Su Ci's lectures and correct some mistakes they made during practice.

It has to be said that Xiao Langze is indeed very talented in music training, and his progress can almost be described as a thousand miles a day.

Maybe after practicing for a while, he will be able to play a complete tune.

It was not until that night that Su Ci purified all the spider leg meat. As for the body of the giant spider, he decided to wait until the next day.

When he finished his work, A Yan had already prepared another sumptuous dinner, which filled Su Ci's tired spirit and was well soothed.

After eating and drinking enough, he simply washed up and went back to the bedroom to fall asleep.

Now A Yan's body has recovered a lot, and he doesn't need to use his soul power to nourish it every day. Today, Su Ci has been tired all day, and he needs a good sleep to restore his energy.

A Yan obediently served as a pillow for him. When Su Ci fell into a deep sleep, he quietly returned to the living room, sat at his small table, took out paper and pen, and continued his formation learning.

As for the other cubs in the nursery...

No. 2 has not woken up yet, and No. 4 and No. 5 have been sleeping since they returned to the nursery. As for the three excited little wolf cubs, they tried not to make any noise after dark.

The nursery was quiet.

A Yan was lying on his small table, recalling what he had learned from observing the Water Purification Array and the Soul Gathering Array today, and writing down carefully on a piece of paper.

He was the only one in the living room, which made him look a little lonely. However, A Yan did not feel lonely. He knew that Su Su was sleeping in the bedroom, and just thinking about this made him feel at ease.

At this moment, he suddenly paused and looked up at the door.

A Yan hesitated for a moment, but still flashed to the door and pressed the manual switch beside the door.

The metal door slowly opened, and a young figure appeared in his sight - it was the little monkey with light golden hair.

It squatted at the door, and seemed to be frightened by the sudden opening of the metal door. It turned around and prepared to escape. When it saw A Yan, its expression calmed down again.

"What are you doing here?" A Yan turned down the volume of the communication bracelet and asked it in a low voice.

Perhaps because it didn't expect A Yan to speak, the little monkey's big round eyes widened even more, like two black grapes, embedded in the pink and white face, especially watery.

Facing A Yan's question, the little monkey raised his hands high and showed A Yan what he had in his hands.

A Yan then discovered that it was holding a handful of seeds in its hands. Judging from the shape and color, they should be star chain fruits.

"Are you here to deliver seeds?" A Yan asked.

The golden little monkey nodded.

A Yan looked at the corridor outside. It seemed that after last night, the concentration of pollutants in the air of the nursery had been greatly reduced.

However, after all, it was not as comfortable and clean as the dormitory that Su Ci had personally arranged.

A Yan hesitated for a moment, and then said to the little monkey, "You can come in, but you can't make any noise, so as not to disturb Su Su."

The little monkey, who was about to clap his hands when he agreed to let it in, froze. It looked in the direction of the bedroom with a little fear, then tiptoed and walked in carefully from the outside.

A Yan went to get an empty can, filled it with spiritual water, and let the little monkey throw all the seeds in it.

There were at least hundreds of seeds in this handful, and no one knew where the little monkey collected them from.

The seeds were floating in the spiritual water. Under the stimulation of the weak spiritual energy, I believe that by tomorrow, a new batch of seeds will break through the skin and sprout.

A Yan put the can of spiritual water away, and looked at the little monkey who was squatting on the floor obediently, looking around with a pair of big round eyes.

It is hard to imagine that such a cute and quiet little monkey could be number six - or rather, number six is ​​so noisy because it lacks this part.

A Yan recalled the information about number six.

He felt that this should be the ability of number six - last night when number six was swept away by the giant spider, the little monkey appeared in time and exchanged positions with number six in the blink of an eye, thus saving number six.

"So, is your ability the clone technique?" A Yan asked in a low voice.

The little monkey looked at him blankly.

Knowing that he could not get an answer from it, A Yan stopped talking, took a cup and poured it a glass of spiritual water, then he continued to sit down at the table and began his formation practice.

The little monkey held the cup of water, tentatively lowered his head and took a sip. After tasting the clean water that was full of spiritual energy, his eyes suddenly became sparkling.

Knowing that this water was good for him, the little monkey squatted on the spot, held the cup of water and drank it mouthful by mouthful.

However, despite this, he drank the water at a moderate speed, just like when he was eating fruit, he was focused and serious, and there was an indescribable elegance.

After a long while, the little monkey finally drank up the spiritual water in the cup.

He smacked his lips, looked around, and then held the cup with both hands and carefully placed it on the tea table. During this process, no specific sound was made.

Even when the cup touched the tea table, the little monkey looked towards the bedroom. After making sure that the keeper was not awakened, he continued to put the cup down and slowly pushed it inside to ensure that it would not fall.

After doing all this, the little monkey turned his head and looked curiously at the child who was writing.

It looked at the two fur ears on the child's head, stretched out its hand to scratch its own head, and then walked around the room again. The

little monkey's eyes were full of curiosity, and everything he saw was new, but he did not move his hands or feet, but just moved his face closer and looked with his eyes.

Finally, after walking around, it returned to A Yan.

A Yan noticed its arrival.

He lowered his head slightly, and saw the little monkey's long tail hooked on the table leg, and it just climbed up along the table, and finally jumped onto his desk.

The young monkey was very small, squatting on the table, occupying a very small corner.

A Yan did not move, and observed it with his eyes to see what it wanted to do.

The little monkey first came closer, looked at his notebook, and soon withdrew its gaze with disinterest. After strolling around the not-so-large table, it finally settled down on A Yan's left hand side.

It curled up into a small ball, hugged its knees, and then rested its furry head on A Yan's little hand. After yawning delicately, it closed its eyes.

A Yan saw it sleeping next to his hand, but he did not chase it away. He stretched out his fingers and rubbed its little head.

Looking at the little monkey that was born not long ago, its hair is fine and soft, not that thick, but it feels softer to the touch, which makes people unconsciously relax their strength and even slow down their breathing.

Feeling A Yan's touch, the little monkey rubbed against his hand, and then continued to close its eyes. Soon its breathing became even and it slept very sweetly.

A Yan was a little curious to see it sleeping so peacefully.

This little monkey is really not afraid of strangers at all.

In this world, besides Su Su, there is also this little monkey who can see him. On such a quiet and comfortable night, he felt more and more comfortable in his heart.

He curled the corners of his lips slightly, and then perked up again.

With the monkey's company, A Yan was no longer distracted. He lowered his head and continued to ponder the formation structure on the paper, sketching out a new form stroke by stroke.

The night gradually deepened.

Base 24 once again spent a peaceful night.

The next morning, after the little wolf cub had breakfast, he couldn't wait to ask 4586 to go out.

"I want to go to the yard to water the seedlings. Su Su agreed!"

4586 naturally didn't hold back.

As soon as the door opened, the young boy rushed out in a hurry, "Yo Yo, let's go water the seedlings together!"

When he passed by Xiaolu Jiao's room, he patted his door hard, then rushed to the stairwell without stopping and quickly ran to the fourth floor.

Originally, he wanted to call Xiao Zhengxing, but he bumped into Xiao Bailu in front of the door of Room No. 2.

"Hey, you got up so early!"

Little Langze helped Xiaolu Jiao up. The little white deer that was knocked down by him was not angry. He dusted himself off and stood up, then greeted him, "Good morning, Langze."

"Are you here to look for the stars?" Little Langze said.

Xiaolu Jiao paused, and his eyes fell on No. 2's room.

In fact, he was here to look for No. 2.

He was a little worried about No. 2's situation, but after returning to the room yesterday, it was already dark and he couldn't go out again, so he waited until today.

But when he really arrived at the door of No. 2's room, he couldn't help but hesitate - after all, he and Langze have become good friends now, and he really doesn't know how to face No. 2.

At this moment, in No. 2's room.

When 4586 brought in breakfast, the red-haired boy had already woken up.

After a day and a night of coma, his bestial features still did not fade. Except for the ears on his head and the tail behind him, most of the reddish-brown striped hair did not fade.

Fortunately, after changing into the new clothes prepared for him by 4586, it was barely covered up. Only the hair on his neck and hands was more conspicuous.

Number Two could no longer remember what happened after he was completely transformed into a beast. He only remembered that he was trapped in a sea of ​​fire. When he was about to be completely swallowed by the red flames, the voice that had helped him appeared again...

This time, Number Two was sure who the owner of the voice was.

Apart from the new keeper, there was probably no one else.

However, Number Two was also very clear about his current physical condition. He could still enter a state of complete bestiality at any time, and his situation was still dangerous.

Now there are two paths in front of him.

One is to follow the original plan and continue to find ways to escape from Base 24, survive in the red mist, and live with monsters. The other path...

is to seek help from the new keeper.

Since he was able to save him from the edge of losing control twice, he should be able to help him keep his sanity, right?

Although the original intention of escaping from Base 24 has not changed, if he can keep his sanity and completely control his blood power, this is a better choice for him!

However, how can the new keeper agree to help him?

Such a favor...

is it enough if he only touches his tail?
