After saying this, the housekeeper's temperature rose a little more.
Even through his clothes and cloak, Wen Qing could clearly feel the heat coming from the butler, like a large hot pack.
The cold wind that blew while riding was dispelled by the warmth behind me.
Wen Qing couldn't help but tilt his head and looked up at the butler's angular jawline. Now he finally felt that the butler was not human.
The discomfort in my heart caused by the housekeeper's appearance being exactly like a human was defeated by the warm baby and disappeared completely.
Wen Qing couldn't help but lean back, leaning on the housekeeper, and looking at the forest in front of him.
It was a very ordinary forest, with birds singing and leaves rustling from time to time.
The only difference is the sky, which is sunny and clear.
The sunlight shines through the branches, casting mottled shadows on the ground.
Wen Qing looked up at the sun, then looked back at the dark sky where the ancient castle was in the distance.
The weather in the castle is indeed a problem.
It will suddenly become darker and slightly brighter.
When the maids talked about the weather, they were talking about the Master's mood...
Wen Qing was just thinking about it when suddenly a cold wind blew towards him.
He shrank back into the butler's arms again.
His back was warm, but his legs were a little cold.
Wen Qing asked the housekeeper in a low voice: "Can you get hot anywhere?"
The housekeeper half-closed his eyes, a blue light flashed in his eyes, and asked, "Where do you want me to get hot, Madam?"
He tilted his head slightly, his chin against Wen Qing's cheek, and a hint of hot air came out from between his lips and teeth.
The warm and slightly hot breath blew on her cheeks and spread to her ears. Wen Qing's cheeks and ears immediately turned red: "You, can your breath become hot?"
The housekeeper responded in a low voice, and then said, "Don't just breathe."
He watched Wen Qing's eyelashes tremble, then slowly rise up, revealing clear eyes full of surprise.
Butler: "Everywhere is fine."
Wen Qing didn't notice that the light in the butler's eyes was flashing faster, nor did he have any romantic thoughts.
He now completely treated the butler as a robot.
Wen Qing leaned against the housekeeper, blinked, and immediately said, "Legs."
As he spoke, he moved his legs slightly back, close to the butler's legs.
The butler responded.
Soon, Wen Qing felt the back of his legs, where he was pressed against the butler, getting hot.
Wen Qing's eyes lit up and he continued, "A little hotter."
"Don't let the insides of your legs get hot."
The butler paused and said, "Hmm?"
Wen Qing explained: "Don't burn the horse."
He was wearing thick clothes and trousers, but Marco was not.
The butler remained silent, doing his job conscientiously as the exclusive human hot water bottle.
The forest was not large, and the black horse quickly ran out of the forest and arrived at a town.
The butler pulled the reins, and the black horse slowed down its pace and stepped slowly on the road.
Wen Qing stared blankly at the town in front of him.
There were wooden houses with pointed roofs and roads paved with small stones. On both sides of the road, vendors wearing gray-brown linen clothes were hawking their wares:
"Come here, freshly grilled dried eel!"
"Muffin! Sir, would you like a muffin?"
"Madam, this pearl necklace suits you very well."
…………
Some passers-by were wearing ordinary clothes, while others were wearing tuxedos and top hats. In addition to their clothing, their appearances were also very different, with some having oriental looks and some having deep western features.
No one stopped to look at each other's appearance, apparently they were used to it.
Wen Qing was stunned for a long time until he heard the butler's voice in his ears and came back to his senses.
Wen Qing asked the housekeeper blankly: "What did you just say?"
The housekeeper repeated, "Want to go down and take a walk?"
Wen nodded gently.
There was a special stable for parking on the side of the road. After getting off the horse, Wen Qing turned around and continued to look around the town.
The shops on both sides have electricity, and old cars pass by from time to time, just like the steam age in the textbooks.
Thinking of this, Wen Qing glanced at the housekeeper.
The butler handed the reins to the man in charge of guarding the stable. When the man saw the butler's hand, he did not show any doubtful expression. Instead, he was more awed and bowed to Wen Qing.
It seems that he knows that this is a robot, so he assumes that he is a person of status.
We have electricity, cars, and robots, but people's clothing is not modern at all.
It's a very strange world.
Wen Qing pursed her lips. This was a normal world, probably a world like Wen City.
After paying the money, the butler walked up to him and said, "Okay."
Wen nodded lightly and walked along the street.
This town is peaceful and there doesn't seem to be any danger.
"Let's go and have a drink."
"Drinking in broad daylight again? Your rose failed again?"
"Yeah, stop talking."
…………
Hearing the word "Rose", Wen Qing subconsciously turned her head and saw a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.
He looked familiar; he was the man who had come to the castle before to apply for the position of gardener.
Wen Qing paused, then followed them forward to a tavern.
The pub was dimly lit, noisy, and the customers were dressed in all kinds of clothes.
Wen Qing and the butler's attire were not eye-catching, but the butler's face attracted many women.
The old gardener didn't notice what Wen Qing and the housekeeper were doing behind him.
Wen Qing chose a position not too far from the old gardener.
As soon as I sat down, the tavern owner came up and threw down the menu: "Sir, what would you like to order?"
Wen Qing glanced at the menu, which was all wine. He pursed his lips and said, "Just give me a glass of water."
The tavern owner was stunned: "Sir, here is the wine——"
Before he even said the word "house", he noticed the inhuman hands of the housekeeper. His face changed and he quickly said to Wen Qing, "Sir, do you need anything besides water?"
Even the name has changed.
Wen Qing pursed his lips and said casually, "Just get something to eat."
"Yes." The tavern owner hurried to prepare.
Wen Qing tilted his head and continued to listen to the old gardener chatting with his friend.
"You still want to apply for a job?"
"Of course, if I don't go, I'll waste my skills."
"Forget it. Didn't you say that you would only keep the youngest gardener each time?"
“Maybe next time I’ll be the youngest.”
Wen Qing's eyelids twitched, and he glanced at the old gardener calmly.
The last time he chose a gardener, Sikong didn't look at the others and directly picked the youngest gardener.
Moreover, the maids in the castle are all young girls around 20 years old.
This Sikong also favors young humans.
"The masters of Rose Castle must have looked at faces."
"There are three of them. Maybe one of them doesn't look good?"
"Well, forget it. Those three adults didn't want anything. How could they see the roses you cultivated yourself?"
Wen Qing was stunned. Three masters.
Do they all know that Rose Castle has three owners?
He tilted his head, wanting to hear what they were talking about.
Suddenly, the pub owner appeared with water, French fries and jerky.
He carefully placed it on the table, and seeing Wen Qing frequently looking at the old gardener, he asked in a low voice: "Sir, are you from out of town?"
Wen nodded gently.
The tavern owner laughed and said, "No wonder, you haven't heard of Rose Castle before."
Wen Qing hummed vaguely.
The tavern owner smiled and said, "Rose Castle is a great place. I heard that once you enter there, you will have the opportunity to obtain endless wealth, beauty, and everything else you want."
Wen Qing was stunned: "Why?"
The hotel owner immediately said, "Of course it's because the three adults in Rose Castle all have magic. I heard they are more powerful than the great magicians in the main city."
Wen Qing opened his eyes wide. Are there still magicians in this world?
No wonder the maids were not surprised by Sikong's casual giving away of things...
The tavern owner continued, "The old couple who sell cakes outside our store have a daughter who works in the castle. I heard that she got a large sum of money and allowed her parents to live in the main city."
Wen Qing subconsciously looked at the housekeeper.
The butler had his eyes half closed, without any expression.
Wen Qing slowly asked the tavern owner: "What else do you know about Rose Castle?"
The hotel owner smiled and said, "You asked the right person. I do know one more thing."
Wen Qing waited for a while, but the tavern owner didn't say what it was.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw the butler take out a piece of gold and push it in front of the tavern owner.
The tavern owner immediately took the gold. He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Although you can get whatever you want in Rose Castle, more people died in there."
"My great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather said that the roses in the Rose Castle were grown with human lives."
Wen Qing continued to ask: "What else?"
"That's all," the tavern owner paused, then continued, "It seems there is another saying that the three adults in Rose Castle were locked up by God."
Wen Qing was stunned.
The next second, the tavern owner said, "Just listen to this, it's all supernatural."
"How can there be a God in the world?"
Wen Qing: “???”
Even though we have magic, why don’t you believe in God?
Wen Qing was silent, thinking, this is such a complicated world.
After inquiring about the news and sitting for a while, Wen Qing left the tavern and strolled around the town with the butler.
During the whole afternoon, Wen Qing asked many people about Rose Castle, but everyone knew less than the tavern owner.
As the sky darkened, Wen Qing bought some street snacks and left the town with the housekeeper.
On the way back, Wen Qing kept thinking about the information he had collected.
The world outside the castle is apparently normal, and so are humans.
But the housekeeper said that it is humans who are dangerous.
Take the three young masters out of the castle.
The three young masters were afraid to leave the castle.
Si Kong's face changed when he heard that he would go out, and little Ji Yu started crying...
Wen Qing pursed her lips, and finally understood something.
Little Ji Yu was not afraid of what was outside the castle, but what would happen once he left the castle.
Are they really locked up?
Wen Qing thought for a long time. His whole body was filled with the housekeeper's warmth, which made his brain work slower and slower, and he felt a little drowsy.
He couldn't help but yawn.
The housekeeper said softly, "You can sleep, I will take good care of you."
Wen Qing shook his head. Although he was very sleepy, he didn't want to sleep on horseback.
He said slowly to the housekeeper, "If you lower the temperature a little, I won't feel sleepy anymore."
"Yes." The butler lowered his body temperature.
Keep it at a temperature that's not too cold but not too cold.
Wen Qing blinked his eyes, and a breeze blew by, making him less sleepy.
Suddenly, 001's voice rang in my mind.
It asked lightly: [Is it good to have a body? ]
Wen Qing responded and told the truth: [It’s good to be able to adjust the temperature. ]
He asked curiously: [Can your system have a body in the future? ]
001 was silent for a moment, and did not directly answer his question, but asked: [If it is up to the player to choose, do you want me to have it or not? ]
Wen Qing was stunned for a moment: [Sometimes I hope you have it, sometimes I hope you don’t. ]
001Silence.
Noticing that 001 was not in the right mood, Wen Qing slowly added the second half of the sentence: [You are so humane, you should have your own ideas, right? ]
[Whether you want it or not, I will support you. ]
001 said softly: [Okay.]
Wen Qing couldn't help but ask again: [So will you really have a body in the future? ]
He blinked, and various movies about robots flashed through his mind. He asked curiously: [Have you ever thought about the female body or the male body? ]
[Or a non-human body? ]
[Gundam? Transformers?]
【Can you eat? 】
…………
Wen Qing threw out a lot of questions.
001 was silent for a long time, then asked tentatively: [What if it is like this butler? ]
Wen Qing blinked, leaned back, and squinted his eyes comfortably: [That's fine. ]
He was now somewhat accustomed to the presence of the butler.
If 001 looks like this...
Seems pretty good?
After entering the dungeon, you get your own identity card. 001 also has his own identity card, such as the butler...
Wen Qing thought about it for a while and suddenly realized a problem.
From the moment of entering this copy, 001 started to become strange.
It would bring up the matter of the housekeeper from time to time.
But once he asked 001 about the housekeeper, 001 would become extremely quiet, refusing to say a word and avoiding his questions.
Wen Qing glanced at the butler's face again. It was a carefully carved face that was as good-looking as Yu Xing and Si Kong, and it conformed to human aesthetics.
It definitely fits the aesthetic taste of 001 who likes to watch romantic action movies.
Moreover, the butler is a robot, and his words and actions are somewhat similar to those of systems like 001.
Isn't this a perfect match with 001?!
Wen Qing suddenly realized and murmured: [001, are you interested in the housekeeper? ]
001: [……]
