Chapter 081 Looking at the tentacles during the day, the visual impact feels even stronger.
The tentacles were unable to answer He Xile.
He Xile didn't expect to get an answer from the other party.
From the time he moved into the palace until today, although everyone says that the giant octopus is scary, in fact, He Xile's room has been sneaked into by the giant octopus many times.
Although He Xile strongly disapproves of this behavior, he has never been injured once.
So, He Xile wasn't particularly afraid of the tentacles now. He recounted everything that had happened today, spilling out the beans, as if he were hugging a tree trunk. Finally, leaning back against the pillow, he muttered somewhat miserably, "I thought we were in interstellar space, with its advanced technology, that no one would die from illness anymore."
However, fate is always fighting against people, trying to make them bend their backs and submit to it.
The octopus's tentacles did not move around, and it stayed obediently in He Xile's arms.
Slowly, the tentacles relaxed and finally became soft.
He Xile changed his posture and hugged the tentacles again: "Go to sleep."
The next second, the tentacles slowly squirmed and hooked around He Xile's waist.
One after another, Jianjian gently patted He Xile's waist, as if to comfort him. The force was very light, not making He Xile feel heavy or uncomfortable at all.
He Xile suddenly remembered that before he traveled through time, he was going to be on the operating table the next day. After shaving his head, he stayed in the ward, feeling very anxious and restless, thinking about the possible risks of the operation, and couldn't fall asleep.
At that time, his mother was like a giant octopus, sitting by the bed, stretching out her hand and gently patting his body.
"My dear, go to bed early..."
"Mom is by your side, always here, don't be afraid, ah."
He Xile felt a lump in his throat.
"I miss my parents a little bit." He Xile said in a low voice.
I don't know if he was talking to the giant octopus or talking to himself.
Tears fell and dripped onto the pillow, wetting a small area, which felt cold to the touch.
The panic and loneliness that had been accumulating for so long finally erupted tonight. He Xile felt suffocated and had difficulty breathing, but he didn't want to disturb the big octopus.
He stared at the moonlight outside with blurred vision and cried quietly for a while.
On the side, the tentacles slapped the body at a very steady rhythm, as if they were beating a beat.
After a few seconds, the soft tentacles came over and gently wiped away the tears on He Xile's face.
He Xile closed his eyes.
After a while, he faintly smelled a light fragrance.
The fragrance was not pungent and was slightly familiar, but He Xile's mind was in a daze and he couldn't remember where he had smelled it before. With this fragrance, He Xile felt extremely at ease and fell asleep in a short while.
Early the next morning.
He Xile turned over subconsciously, but felt something on his side hindering his actions.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a huge tentacle lying on the bed next to He Xile, sleeping soundly. Even though He Xile had just pressed it, it did not react at all.
He Xile: “…”
hiss.
Looking at the tentacles during the day gives them a stronger visual impact.
He Xile observed carefully and found that this tentacle was the same one that had sneaked into the room last time and lay on him and stuck close to him - a hideous scabbed wound was faintly visible on the tip of the tentacle.
"I don't know where I was hurt..." He Xile muttered.
As he spoke, the scene of having his tears wiped by the tentacles last night unconsciously emerged in his mind...
He Xile blinked, thought of something, and quickly reached out to touch his face.
Grass.
Fortunately, my face feels normal and there shouldn't be any messy stuff.
otherwise……
He Xile imagined that scene, his ears turned red, and he couldn't help but curl up like a cooked shrimp.
He has grown up.
But he is still a child.
"You're so good. I told you not to secrete mucus, and you actually didn't."
He Xile quickly shifted his thoughts.
He praised and patted the tentacles as if to coax a child.
At this moment, the bed was clean, and the touch beside him was soft and cool, a perfect way to beat the summer heat. Coupled with the time they had held each other last night and wiped away their tears, He Xile felt truly comforted.
"Knock, knock, knock."
There was an orderly knock on the door.
"Sir He Xile, it's time for breakfast. Can I come in?" asked the guard.
He Xile raised his wrist and glanced at the time on the terminal, and found that it was already eight o'clock without him noticing.
He sat up and looked at the tentacles on the bed, feeling a little embarrassed.
Well.
If the guard came in and saw the giant octopus's tentacles on his bed... would the guard report the giant octopus for being a hooligan, or would he report He Xile for being a hooligan?
No, it should be collusion?
hateful!
Just as He Xile was lost in thought, the giant octopus seemed to be awakened by the guard's voice, and the tips of its tentacles suddenly stretched straight. It was not known whether it was excited or simply stretching, but the next second, it disappeared as fast as the tide receded.
So fast that afterimages almost appear.
He Xile was stunned: "...Just go in."
The guard pushed open the door.
He was about to push the food cart in when he suddenly stopped.
He Xile, who was about to go wash up, lifted the quilt, yawned, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Guard: “…No.”
A faint fragrance can be smelled in the air.
It is the aura of His Majesty.
The guard couldn't help but look back at the door of the room at the end of the corridor. Veins bulged on his forehead and he complained in his heart - Your Majesty is really something. He actually took advantage of everyone's inattention and sneaked into the human's room again.
He looked at Lord He Xile who was about to go wash up.
He Xi Le everything is as usual.
Guard 131 couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
fortunately.
Your Excellency didn't seem to notice all this, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to explain to Your Excellency He Xile why there was still a loophole in the new room that allowed the giant octopus to enter.
The guard thought that if the Excellency insisted on reporting His Majesty, he would not be able to stop him.
The door at the end of the corridor stood quietly.
Inside the door, Wen Jiyu stroked his forehead, groaned, and stood up from the wide-open window.
Inside the compartment, the guard who heard the noise immediately opened the door and was slightly stunned when he saw Wen Jiyu's current state.
He quickly stepped forward and placed a small instrument against Wen Jiyu's neck. With a beep, the guard lowered his head to check the readings: "Your Majesty, you woke up nearly twenty-three hours earlier than usual."
"Yeah." Wen Ji and Lan Lan responded, and he closed his eyes. "How much damage was done this time?"
"Not much." The guard reported a number. "Except for the first day when you returned from the marginal planet and lost control and caused some damage, there has been no such incident since then."
He looked up, feeling happy, "Your Majesty, your condition seems to be getting better."
The genetic disorder coupled with the mental disorder caused by the previous war has made His Majesty's life miserable.
At certain times, His Majesty would lose control of himself and use his original form to wantonly destroy everything around him that he disliked. This was a double blow to himself.
What worries everyone is that the impact of the chaos on His Majesty is becoming more and more serious.
——The days that His Majesty was in chaos, from the first few hours, have extended to the three days now.
As we all know, disorders are irreversible.
Everyone believed that this period would continue until one day, His Majesty's sanity would collapse and he would go insane forever. Wen Ji and His Majesty himself understood all this, so they had previously written a will. If that day came, anyone in Hai Xinna would have the right to use weapons to kill him.
His Majesty has even secretly chosen the next successor.
And now.
I'm getting better.
Your Majesty's disorder has improved.
The guard couldn't hide his joy on his face.
Wen Ji lowered his eyes.
His long, crow-feather-like eyelashes covered his beautiful ruby-like eyes.
He lifted his ankle slightly and saw that the annoying black line remained in the same place and did not move forward.
"These two days when I was away." Wen Jiyu raised his eyes.
He sat on a soft chair beside him and gently rubbed the wings of his nose.
The guards immediately understood what Wen Jiyou meant and began to report the important events that had occurred in the past two days.

After He Xile finished his breakfast, he sent a message to Ma Jieli: "How is Xiaotuan now?"
Margery quickly replied, "She's doing well since waking up. She's more energetic. She even asked for ice cream this morning, but I coldly refused. I'm currently waiting in line for discharge and plan to spend some time with her. Your Excellency, I'd like to take a leave of absence. Xiaotuan is already an adult, but she hasn't experienced Hai Xinna's beauty. I want to take her around the world."
"Of course." He Xile replied immediately, "If you need money, you can tell me."
There was no employment relationship between him and Margery, so there was no question of whether or not to take leave.
And now Maggie always reminds He Xile of his father.
"You have helped me a lot before, and I am very grateful. After Xiaotuan's matter... is over, I hope you can re-hire me and let me be your assistant." This was what Margery had thought of before.
He met the luminous Lord He Xile during the darkest days of his life. He was willing to work wholeheartedly for Lord He Xile for the rest of his life without expecting anything in return.
He Xile pursed his lips.
He waited a moment before typing back, "Okay. Send me a message when you get home."
Margery: "Yes, sir."
He Xile entered the Star Network and finished his training for the day. Seeing that he still had time, he turned on the live broadcast and queued up for the Mecha Summer Tournament. He said, "I came to the live broadcast today and got beaten for two hours."
"I'm dying of laughter! Can't Lanlan have some ambition? Don't want to be beaten, beat others!"
He Xile sighed softly: "I also want to beat others, it depends on whether others give me the opportunity."
I don’t know if the training these days was effective or if he was lucky, but in two random matches, He Xile won both.
His hands on the console were shaking slightly from rapidly pressing buttons. Looking at the screen in front of him, his eyes sparkled like falling stars, and he said proudly to the camera, "Did you see that? My heroic figure."
"Wow, Lanlan is awesome—"
"I'm giving you a landmine, Lanlan, keep going!"
"I just arrived. What happened?"
"Blue just played two games. Although it looked very difficult, he won in the end!"
He Xile laughed and flexed his hands: "Look at my three consecutive wins!"
...Then He Xile was sanctioned.
"I'm dying of laughter."
"What about the three-game winning streak?"
"Damn it." He Xile lay on the ground, "One really shouldn't get too complacent."
"But Lanlan's loss just now wasn't a bad one. His opponent was also a streamer, and he was quite capable. The fact that Lanlan could fight him for so many moves shows that Lanlan has made great progress now."
"Yes, yes!"
He Xile: "If you say so, then I won't be sad anymore."
While joking with everyone in the barrage, He Xile received a message and clicked it to take a look.
Yudui: "What the hell is going on? It's a mess."
"Come to the training room and I'll tell you."
He Xile replied, "Okay."
He was about to exit the live broadcast room to accept another round of sanctions from His Majesty, but he caught a glimpse of the barrage of comments.
“????”
"Damn, am I seeing things right??? Is that the Yuduyi I was thinking of???"
“Ah? Ahhhhhhhhh?”
"What the hell, a dream collaboration?"
"Oh my god, no wonder Lanlan has improved so much, it turns out Yuduyi is behind it???"
"I admire it."
"...Ah, for a moment I don't know whether I should envy Lan Lan for having Yu Dui as a teacher, or envy Yu Dui for being able to be Lan Lan's teacher."
