Luo Xiaolou was holding an artificial lunch box and was devouring it. A short man on the table opposite him was staring at him viciously. He only touched it after Luo Xiaolou kicked him away for the second time when he wanted to grab the lunch box. Stomach, took another look at Luo Xiaolou's half-eaten lunch box, and left cursing.
These foods that Luo Xiaolou disliked before were not very tasty, but he had already enjoyed them very much.
If you don't eat, you will starve. Moreover, if Arthur is not around, someone will always try to snatch the food from him, even women are stronger than men, Luo Xiaolou learned a lesson thoroughly after going hungry for a few meals. Arthur will not provide him with extra food, only three packed meals a day. Because they are weak and cannot keep their own food, on this ship, they will not be sympathized with.
Compared with before, his nutrition has dropped a lot. Luo Xiaolou has lost a lot of weight in the past two days, and his clothes have not been changed or washed for several days, and they have become messy. After adding makeup, his face is ugly. He was even more displeased. However, even so, whenever Luo Xiaolou received food, in addition to those who wanted to grab it, there would also be women who would come forward and be willing to provide special services for a piece of food.
After the first time because he couldn't bear to give half a box to a woman, the woman's husband found an excuse to snatch the other half box from Luo Xiaolou. The two looked at Luo Xiaolou like a fool. After that, Luo Xiaolou Lou stopped talking to those women.
Luo Xiaolou finally understood what happened to the woman he saw in Arthur's room last time.
Luo Xiaolou felt very puzzled. Arthur had his own spaceship, and judging by the furnishings in his house, he was not considered poor. Why were his men so poor
After two days of silent observation, Luo Xiaolou realized that the people he saw worrying about food were not Arthur's subordinates.
Arthur and his men were in several other cabins, and the last two cabins were for those who escaped on the spaceship.
Most of the people on this ship committed a crime, or left the upper-level planet for various reasons, and had to go to the lower-level planet. Before these people boarded the ship, all the communication devices were taken off. Some people exchanged almost all the money for spaceship tickets, so that it is difficult to solve the food and clothing problem now.
After Luo Xiaolou finished eating, he opened the cabin door and walked in along the corridor. He wanted to go back to Arthur's room to sleep. Luo Xiaolou originally wanted to find a place to make do with a bit of backbone, but he slept in the corridor on the first day, after being kicked a few times and someone tried to grab the necklace around his neck, Luo Xiaolou went back to Arthur's room .
Arthur didn't say much, just smiled and satirized a few words, and fell asleep on his own. What is rare is that Arthur did not find another woman to serve. Maybe, no woman can bear him at all—Luo Xiaolou thought darkly.
When passing by the living room, a group of men's laughter was coming from inside. Luo Xiaolou originally planned to leave immediately, but he heard someone inside say: "Tomorrow we will arrive at Alan, Boss, do we want to enter the port?"
Luo Xiaolou immediately pricked up his ears outside the door, and eavesdropped openly. He felt that this matter had something to do with him personally. Arthur said that he would be kicked out when he got to a safe place. So who is this Allen? what's the situation
There was silence for two seconds, and Arthur said irresolutely, "Well, stop for a long time."
The person who had just started to ask the question laughed gloatingly, "There will be another good show tomorrow, so I don't know how much I can leave this time."
A gentle voice said: "Well, but it is really not easy for these people to live in Alan."
"Who cares about them? Those people are not good people. They can't get along in the upper-level planets anymore. Going to the lower-level planets to hide from disasters is not as easy as they think. Now the ship still provides food. When they get down there, within three days, they will die." Know what the cruelty of reality is. Besides, they will disembark sooner or later, we don't need to worry about it." The previous person said.
Not easy to live? Luo Xiaolou began to think about how he would live in the future, and the most important thing was how to earn enough money for a boat ticket. At this time, the topic changed and the conversation started. Luo Xiaolou walked towards Arthur's room, and a tall man came in front of him. Luo Xiaolou had seen Arthur several times, his name was Lu En, he was like an iron tower, he was usually taciturn, but there was an invisible atmosphere around him. With such an aura, even other careless pirates didn't dare to provoke him.
Because of the camouflage on his face, Luo Xiaolou usually walked around people. Unlike other people's sarcasm and ridicule, Lu En never paid attention to him, and always ignored him directly.
Back in the house, Luo Xiaolou sat down in the corner and began to think about the future. He was definitely going back to Planet Ansai, the animal pattern on his body had completely disappeared, and 125 hadn't moved a bit.
Luo Xiaolou was very anxious, how to fix it was a problem, he even began to consider whether to ask Master Yan for advice.
Secondly, it was the first time he had been separated from Yuan Xi for such a long time, and he went from restless to eager to see Yuan Xi again. Luo Xiaolou had to admit that he began to miss that bad guy. At that time, leaving such a sentence and leaving, Yuan Xi must have been furious, and now I don't know what happened to him.
Did he return to his home after being disappointed, or was he a little anxious and wanted to find him
We have lived together for a year, and we always have feelings.
Luo Xiaolou rubbed his face and silently planned in his heart that he could go back to his home, continue to work and go to school, and continue to make mechas after graduation. If Yuan Xi wanted to come back, apart from the attitude of Yuan Xi's family members, he would still agree with Yuan Xi to continue living at home—although this was never Luo Xiaolou's decision.
They can watch TV together, drink afternoon tea, or go to virtual network to fight, or go out to cake shops and shopping malls together. As for the secret of the alien beast, as long as he controls the source of consciousness and finds the owner of 125 before the age of thirty, maybe he can find a way to control the transformation.
If Yuan Xi had already given up, Luo Xiaolou frowned, and decided to wait until he saw the result...
Luo Xiaolou fell asleep thinking about it. In his sleep, he saw that he had cooked a large table of sumptuous and delicious meals, and his saliva was about to flow out. Just as he couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks, Luo Xiaolou suddenly felt that something was missing.
Looking at the cakes and fish on the table, habitually wanting to put them on the opposite side—Luo Xiaolou suddenly raised his head and found a big cat staring at him angrily. The moment he raised his head, he couldn't hold back his anger anymore, let go of his paws and rushed over.
Luo Xiaolou dropped the chopsticks in his hand, yelled, and then he was kicked awake.
"Get up! It's time to get off the boat." When Luo Xiaolou opened his eyes, Arthur kicked him with a grim smile.
Luo Xiaolou turned over and planned to continue sleeping. He still wanted to continue dreaming. Originally, in two minutes, he would be able to dream of Yuan Xi's face.
Arthur didn't move his feet any more, but said slowly, "Aren't you going to eat today?"
Luo Xiaolou took a deep breath, and Yuan Xi's face gradually became clear in his mind. He touched his face, got up with a grunt, and walked to the bathroom angrily.
After a few mouthfuls of breakfast, Luo Xiaolou got off the spaceship after arriving at the port along with Arthur and others and those hiding on the ship.
This is not a big planet, and Alan's people showed great enthusiasm for Arthur's arrival. As soon as Arthur got off the ground, several people had already greeted him with smiles. Arthur tugged and didn't move, but a tall and thin young man behind him stepped forward and said, "Brother Jin, we brought a lot of things this time. I don't know what's going on with you here?"
The person in the lead was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his hands together with joy, a flower blossomed on his chubby face, and said: "How can the emperor come here for nothing, our things have already been prepared, ten warehouses They are all piled up. Since the emperor has come in person, why don’t you go to my place and talk slowly.”
The thin and tall young man raised a smile and talked to the people behind. Arthur and a few people left with Allen's men, and some of Arthur's men scattered around.
Those who escaped also rarely returned to the land to see the sun, and went down and circled excitedly. Some people were already thinking about staying here to live.
Luo Xiaolou observed the surroundings. Unlike Ansai Planet and Kami Planet, although there are many high-rise buildings, the floors are not too high, there are old and new, and they are not so dense. No matter how far away, you can still see the low Low bungalow. In the distance, you can still see the green of the field, the blue sky is like washing, and the whole port city is leisurely and comfortable. It can be seen that this place is not too backward, and the overall environment is still good.
The side of the space port is also very lively, with many vendors gathered, and another group of people are looking at them.
Luo Xiaolou was also ready to wander around, so he chose a more lively direction and walked in.
Luo Xiaolou noticed that most of the shops on both sides sold artificial food, and the price was 20 federal coins, which was double that of Ansai Planet. Luo Xiaolou was surprised. It was almost noon, and his stomach growled, but—Arthur had already been a guest on Planet Allen, and he had obviously forgotten his lunch. Not only him, those people who got off the spaceship were all hungry.
At this moment, a person suddenly approached Luo Xiaolou and said: "You came with the emperor, do you want to come to my house as a hired worker? Seeing you like this, there is probably no one who is willing to hire you. You can stay with me. At home, as long as you work hard in the future, you will still have a meal."
Luo Xiaolou was taken aback, looking at the middle-aged woman in front of him who looked at him with disgust, a hired worker? He hasn't decided what to do yet.
The woman stared at Luo Xiaolou for a long time, but she didn't wait for his answer, she seemed surprised, and said, "Why are you so picky, you people are not like this, the conditions I give you are considered good. Such ignorance Anyway, no one wants you, and sooner or later you will starve to death."
Luo Xiaolou was so choked that he couldn't speak, at this moment, a group of people passed by in the small alley in front, most of them were tall, and they were queuing up to a large truck.
"Hmph, do you want to go to the Jin family? I'm afraid you don't have such good luck. Those who are strong or good-looking are picked by the Jin family. Like you, you need to have no appearance, no physical strength, and you can do it when you go. What? You should give up on it." The woman was still nagging, "Our family just let you operate the machine to dig underground, and there are two meals a day, why are you picky?"
Luo Xiaolou stayed for a while, and only had two meals a day, and it seemed that he didn't get paid. Isn't this too inhumane? Regardless of whether it was before or after four thousand years, he has never really suffered anything, at least he has never experienced starvation or cold.
After Luo Xiaolou finally got rid of that woman, when he walked forward, his mood suddenly became gloomy. After walking a few steps, Luo Xiaolou discovered that there are almost no shops selling mechas in the shops here, and there are a lot of materials, and they are extremely cheap. Luo Xiaolou touched Kong Kong's right hand, feeling a little reluctant to leave.
Materials cannot be purchased, and none of the previous materials have been brought out.
Luo Xiaolou finally saw a high-end commercial street. There were mostly shops on the left and right. He walked into the first one. Most of them were ordinary civilian energy boxes, and most of them were the lowest-level 50 Luo energy boxes. Luo Xiaolou glanced at them. The eye-marked price is 1,400 federal coins, which is also twice the price of Ansai Planet.
Luo Xiaolou glanced thoughtfully, then, under the scornful eyes of the clerk, he left the shop, turned around and entered the next shop.
This is a semi-finished material store, and what is rare is that it also sells some mecha parts. Moreover, there was already a customer in the shop, and it was Lu En, who looked like an iron tower, and he was receiving a second-level shoulder armor from the shopkeeper.
Due to occupational diseases, Luo Xiaolou took a second look and couldn't help blurting out: "Boss, there is something wrong with that part."
The boss's face darkened immediately, and he glared at Luo Xiaolou viciously: "What's the matter with you? My place is Alan's best material and mecha parts sales store. What evidence do you have, so you dare to come here and talk nonsense? "
Lu En still didn't speak, but turned his head and glanced at Luo Xiaolou.
Luo Xiaolou took a step forward, took the parts from the boss, touched them with both hands, and began to disassemble them skillfully.
He also said: "Boss, you should choose hard zirconium with a similar color for the material of your shoulder armor, so the texture will definitely be better."
The boss's eyes lit up, and the ferocious expression on his face disappeared immediately, and he said kindly: "How old is this little brother? Where is he from? Where does he work? Do you know how to handle materials?"
"... understand a little bit." Luo Xiaolou replied while tidying up.
"The little brother used to be an assistant to the mech maker in handling materials?" The boss continued to inquire.
Luo Xiaolou was taken aback, thinking of Master Yan, he nodded. Other mech makers generally don't waste time handling materials by themselves, and have specialized assistants to help. And Master Yan has strict requirements on him, and he has to handle all the materials by himself.
The boss looked at Luo Xiaolou more kindly. Since Luo Xiaolou put on makeup, this was the first time someone was so polite to him.
"Then you are just here, have you found a place to work?"
"I was just going to ask you, is it easy to find a job here?" Luo Xiaolou asked while tidying up, and the skilled movements made the two people next to him stare intently.
"Ah, our place is rich in materials and ores, so the general requirement for recruitment is physical strength, and the salary is not high, because there is a lack of food here, and even if it is artificial food, the price is much higher than outside. Our There is no need for mecha masters or mecha makers here, unless they are of high rank, you can report to the chief, and maybe you can find a position." The boss said, glanced at Luo Xiaolou's thin body, his eyes wandered, Start thinking.
Materials are abundant here, but there are very few technicians, especially those who know how to handle materials. You know, as long as the initial processing is done, the price of the material will not be so cheap. The boss made up his mind that even if the salary was raised, he would keep this ugly monster.
The problem with this part is not serious. Luo Xiaolou reinstalled it once, and fixed it with the source of consciousness secretly. Seeing that there is no problem, he handed it to Lu En. The boss also cheered up and was about to speak. Throwing down the money, he pulled Luo Xiaolou out of the mecha parts shop.
"What? You want to keep him?" The thin and tall young man who had been following Arthur raised his voice, "Lu En, you have a fever today, don't you? I don't usually see you meddling in your business. What's the matter?" Didn’t the boss say, try not to bring outsiders to our place.”
Lu En glanced at the young man, didn't speak, just looked at Arthur.
A handsome young man next to the thin and tall young man said: "A Li, don't say a few words, Lu En may have his thoughts. Besides, we still have five days to get home, and we still have time to think about it."
Arthur really didn't say anything, but just looked at Luo Xiaolou thoughtfully, and said: "Go back today, anyway, the harvest is not small. Those who want to stay, let them stay."
That night, Luo Xiaolou asked Arthur with lingering fear: "Is the place where you will stay in the future similar to Aaron?"
Arthur heard the words, smiled and looked at Luo Xiaolou twice: "Allen is rich in materials, but there is a serious shortage of food, and the employment conditions are also very difficult. Although there are backward places in the back, there are also high-end urban areas. However, every place has They have their own advantages and disadvantages. Those people may not be able to survive in other places."
"That's it." Luo Xiaolou felt uncomfortable.
Arthur smirked, "Why, are you starting to worry?"
Having said that, Arthur looked at Luo Xiaolou suspiciously, and asked, "Did you let Lu En see you?"
"No." Luo Xiaolou replied.
Arthur touched his chin, puzzled: "Then why did he let you stay?"
Luo Xiaolou didn't speak either, maybe because he did a little favor? Still value him for his usefulness. But if he stayed in Allen, he would probably be able to find a job dealing with materials.
The spaceship left the port again and headed for the vast universe.
And very far away, on another spaceship.
Yuan Xi looked at Su Lan lightly, and said: "I gave you the right, not someone you can use against me. Su Lan, I am very disappointed. Maybe you are not suitable for this position. Give your people to Luo De. Say hello to Ann in the future and let her arrange it for you. "
Su Lan's eyes widened in disbelief, water vapor slowly appeared in her eyes, she suppressed her sobs and said, "I, I didn't make a big mistake, and I didn't violate any discipline by doing this. Besides, at the last moment , didn’t you save him? Even if I was really wrong, don’t we have a chance to reform after all these years of friendship?”
Yuan Xi's fists clenched tightly, and they hung heavily on the table. There was a loud noise in the room, and both Su Lan and Rhodes shivered. Then Yuan Xi looked at Su Lan coldly, "Did I save him? He didn't come back! Even almost—your mistake may be corrected, but my people may never be found again. This kind of thing, I I don’t want to meet again, not even once.”
Su Lan finally whimpered, turned and ran out.
Rhodes saw no one left and said, "Didn't you say you have to wait two years before touching her?"
Yuan Xi's face was completely gloomy, "I didn't take the opportunity to attack, I can't accept the consequences she caused." Finally, Yuan Xi turned his head and looked out the window, and said: "She touched someone who shouldn't, I can't bear it... "At the end of the day, it was too low to hear.
Rhodes looked at his aloof master in shock, he had never seen Yuan Xi so sad.
