Chapter 047 The giant octopus must have done it on purpose!
The neatly folded bedding seemed to have been washed and dried, and looked particularly clean.
If you get close, you can smell a faint fragrance.
He Xile didn't believe it, so he picked up the quilt and checked it again, and found that there was really no mucus on it.
It can indeed be used.
He was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
This giant octopus...
He had previously thought the slime from the tentacles was uncontrollable, secreting everywhere and at all times, hence why it soaked the quilt and carpet, and even dripped onto him...
But now seeing this quilt, He Xile suddenly realized that this was controllable.
hateful.
So the giant octopus must have done it on purpose!
He Xile complained in his heart, but after thinking about it, he decided to put away the quilt washed by Big Octopus and save it for next use.
——They have all been washed clean, so of course they can’t be thrown away.
Afterwards, He Xile did not forget his business.
He collected all the auspicious knots on the table, checked the number one by one, and after making sure that there was nothing missing, He Xile jumped down from the chair and walked quickly to the door.
He opened the door and looked at the guard expectantly: "Can you please do me a favor?"
The guard said without hesitation: "Of course."
Who could be so cruel as to reject the request of a lovely human being?
He paused and added in his mind: Of course, it is not okay to report His Majesty for secretly sleeping in a human's room at night.
Fortunately, humans did not ask him to help report His Majesty.
He Xile pointed at the table. "Didn't I receive a lot of gifts from fans? Yesterday, I made some simple gifts in return and wanted to give them to them, but there are too many. I might not be able to handle it alone. Can you help me mail them out?"
"certainly."
The guard readily agreed.
He followed He Xile into the room and, upon seeing the hundreds of auspicious knots neatly arranged on the table, a look of surprise crossed his face. "Did you make all of these by yourself?" The knots looked perfectly straight and beautiful, vibrant red, and most importantly, there were so many of them. Seeing this, the guard couldn't help but sigh, "You're truly amazing."
Although this pendant is small, it looks very complicated at first glance.
He Xile scratched his head embarrassedly: "Actually, it's very simple once you master the technique."
He said, “If you like, I can teach you how to do it.”
The guard immediately waved his hand. "No, no. Your Excellency, I truly know nothing about this kind of craft. Back in school, my teacher taught me simple mecha disassembly techniques, but I messed up everything. That class also gave me the lowest grade of all my classes. When the results came out, my teacher couldn't help but chase me down and beat me for three blocks."
As if afraid that He Xile wouldn't believe it, the guard actually played the video.
In the video, a very fast-running child can be seen in the distance, followed closely by a teacher holding a weapon, who is still yelling, "If you have the guts, get two points on the test. If you have the guts, don't run!"
Two points!
He Xile was so amused by the video that he fell backwards.
The guard asked again, "Your Excellency will go to school after this summer vacation, right?"
He Xile nodded immediately: "Yes."
Is it considered compulsory education that is enforced?
The guard smiled and said, "You will definitely be very popular and make many good friends by then."
He Xile's eyes sparkled: "Yeah!"
Because of his age, He Xile was considered a minor by the residents of Haixinna. So when he went to school, his classmates were also minors. As everyone knows, minors all have secondary characteristics, like cats and dogs...
Oh my god.
The school is heaven!
Can't wait!
Summer, summer, please hurry up!
He Xile was in a good mood and couldn't help humming a song.
Soon, there was a knock on the door and the guard opened it.
A round robot, about two meters tall, flashed with light as it walked in. It waved its arms, small in comparison to its body, and saluted.
A mechanical voice rang out: "Your Excellency He Xile, the honorable human, Guard 131686, hello. My name is Xiaoyuan, and I will be assisting you in packing the packages."
Wow.
It's a robot!
It's so round! It looks so cute!
He Xile suddenly became energetic.
——Since coming to Haixinna, although He Xile knew that there were robots here, he rarely saw them.
After saying this, Madoka started working.
He Xile couldn't help but stay beside Xiaoyuan and carefully observe the robot's movements.
The robot's behavior does not appear to be rigid or monotonous. Instead, it puts the Chinese knot into the package very flexibly and accurately, affixes the sender's address, and stacks them together.
If you ignore its appearance, it even looks like a normal human.
Really good.
With robots helping you, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
He Xile chatted with the guards: "I thought there were no robots in the palace."
"Of course there are robots, but His Majesty doesn't like them. So most of the time, the robots are in the warehouse and only appear when needed, like now."
The guard asked, "Your Excellency, are you aware that many Haixinna people have a stress reaction to robots?"
He Xile nodded: "I know."
A fan mentioned it during a previous live broadcast.
"Because of stress, the robots on Hexinna are only engaged in production and not involved in the service industry. Furthermore, Hexinna has a large population, and of course, the majority of the workforce is citizens, which is why you haven't seen many robots." The guard added, "While His Majesty isn't stressed out, he does dislike robots."
I see.
He Xile understood.
Not all citizens will respond to the stress, but for the sake of business and the safety of citizens, everyone will consider whether to hire robots. That's why He Xile rarely sees robots.
But robots can liberate labor and are still very practical.
During the conversation, the robot Xiaoyuan had already very quickly packed the auspicious knots into the packages.
He Xile exclaimed, "Wow!" "So fast!"
Xiao Yuan's hands kept moving, and her eyes immediately turned into two red hearts: "It is Xiao Yuan's honor to satisfy His Excellency He Xile."
This robot looks really good.
He Xile couldn't help but raise his hand and gently stroke Xiaoyuan's head.
Damn it.
——Even an ordinary robot is taller than him.
Perhaps it was programmed, but after being petted, Xiaoyuan responded immediately—it rubbed He Xile's palm, but only twice before stopping and saying righteously, "Please, Mr. He Xile, don't pet Xiaoyuan yet. Xiaoyuan still has work to do. I'll play with you again after I finish my work."
He Xile: "Okay, okay, I won't touch you anymore. I'll touch you later."
15551.
The robot is so cute!
He Xile thought to himself, when I move out, I must get a robot butler! Wouldn't that mean I could just be a salted fish and not have to do anything? That would be so cool...
He Xile held his face.
The guard stood aside and asked: "Your Excellency likes robots?"
He Xile: “Yeah.”
The guard frowned slightly when he saw that He Xile's eyes never left the robot.
Lord He Xile likes robots, but His Majesty does not like robots.
……well.
After sending out all the auspicious knots, He Xile compared the list and breathed a sigh of relief.
nailed it!
In the afternoon, He Xile logged into StarNet and started a live broadcast.
Like the previous Wave Festival, the Mecha Summer Tournament is also an event that everyone is paying attention to.
He Xile was eating cat paw-shaped ice cream sold on the street while chatting with people watching the live broadcast. He found that the comments were mostly about the summer season.
"I've already signed up. I hope I don't encounter too formidable opponents in the early stages, and that I can show up in the live stream later on so I can find a partner... Damn it."
"Me too. I don't ask for much. God Bellamy, please bless me to be in the top 100 this time."
"??? Your number is gone."
"By the way, Lanlan's spiritual power is a full B-level. Do you want to participate in the summer competition? I think you will get a good name, and the event rewards are very rich."
He Xile's gaze remained fixed on the word "Bellamy" for two seconds.
He remembered the name.
——When the staff introduced him to the Mecha Experience Hall, they mentioned that the last wall that was painted over by the robot originally had a statue of Bellamy on it.
He Xile replied: "I haven't purchased a mecha yet, so I'm not eligible to participate at the moment."
At the same time, I saw that the barrage disappeared directly, and the person who sent this barrage also became an invalid account in an instant. When I clicked on the name and entered the homepage, I would be prompted that there was suspected violation of regulations.
hiss.
So terrifying!
Not long.
"Damn it! My account is really gone! I've been raising it for five years! I swear I'll never mention Bellamy again."
"?"
“???”
He Xile: “…”
"With your IQ, you can basically say goodbye to Ixun Garden."
"Well, I'm not saying anything, but he actually managed to keep his previous account up for five years? That's incredible."
He Xile couldn't help but burst out laughing.
His eyes curved as he changed the subject, "Although my mental strength is at B level, don't forget that I'm not even as strong as a D-level person. Damn it! If I participate in this competition, won't I be beaten repeatedly?"
As if anticipating a tragic ending, He Xile sighed softly, "Don't I have any dignity?"
"Hilarious!"
"Now that I think about it, it's true..."
"Sorry, I couldn't help laughing out loud, hahaha."
“Ahhhhhhh!”
Suddenly, a series of meaningless modal particles appeared on the barrage.
"What's up, Fat Four?"
"What happened to this sister?"
"Friends! You'll never believe it! I received a gift from Lanlan!!"
“???”
"Huh??? What gift???"
"I've posted it on my personal page, go check it out—I won't let anyone else miss it!!!"
"Fuck, I'm back after watching it. Jealous.jpg"
"What is this? It's so pretty and red."
"Why do they have this gift?"
He Xile blinked: "Here's the thing. I recently received a batch of gifts..."
He explained how he had received a gift and felt compelled to return it, taking the opportunity to promote his culture. "This gift is a Chinese knot, a hand-woven craft from China. It represents the long history of China and also symbolizes good wishes. There are many ways to weave Chinese knots, and the one I'm giving away is the auspicious knot..."
After a while, He Xile said, "If you are interested, I can teach you how to edit it!"
"Okay, okay."
"I want to learn from Lanlan too!"
People on the barrage immediately responded positively.
He Xile thought, this can also be considered as cultural exchange, right?
It would be a pity if such a beautiful thing could not be passed down.
Once everyone in the live broadcast room has learned how to do it and passed it on, when someone else weaves Chinese knots in the future and someone who doesn’t know much about it sees it and asks about it out of interest, they will definitely get a unified answer.
——This is a traditional handicraft from a country on Earth called China.
It’s wonderful just thinking about it!
He Xile was very excited: "We need to buy the materials first."
He opened the Star Network's virtual store and purchased the thread he had selected, explaining, "We on the Blue Planet are smaller, so we use thinner thread. However, that kind of Chinese knot is a bit too small for you, and we won't achieve the desired effect."
After all, it is the data transmission of the Star Network.
As soon as He Xile paid the bill, the package appeared in front of him out of thin air.
He Xile opened the package, waited for a moment, and asked, "Have all your threads arrived?"
"arrive."
"I am ready!"
"Let's get started."
He Xile has been making a lot of auspicious knots lately. Practice makes perfect, and he no longer needs to think before he starts. As he weaves in slow motion, he patiently instructs the viewers on the live stream: "First, go around here..."
"Go around here..."
"...Okay, that's it. Just a few adjustments and we've got a lucky knot."
He Xile looked up at the screen.
"It's so funny. I was so confident, but I got stuck at the first step."
"Excuse me, is this magic???"
"Very good, I recorded the screen and just watched the beginning of the production tutorial again at slow speed. My eyes tell me I can do it, my brain tells me I can do it, but my hands ask me what just happened."
