The Sabbath

Chapter 14: The one in the house

Views:

There were two more baskets of ground beans in the cellar. It was said that they were baskets, but they were not many. According to the result of Ronggui's last count and report last night: they now have 198 ground beans.

In addition, they also have a chair, two pots, a flower pot, and two cloth towels.

All of them were made in the voice of Ronggui reluctantly reciting a mantra like "what to do~ we really need a xx".

To be precise, it was made by Xiaomei.

There used to be only one chair in the house. After all, there was only one person living in the house, so there was no need for a second chair, but now "they have two people", Rong Gui said that he "would like a chair too. Sit side by side with Xiaomei", talking about it for a whole day, the next day Xiaomei collected tools and made a chair.

There was no such thing as a washbasin, but isn't the main work of their day now massage? Before the massage, Ronggui also asked to wipe the body of two people. In this case, "the washbasin is really useful~" ← This is Ronggui's original words.

Of course, with a washbasin, how can there be no foot basin? How can the person who wipes the face and the body use the same basin as the person who wipes the feet? So Xiaomei was forced to burn another foot basin.

This kind of thing seems to be unnecessary, doesn't it? However, Ronggui suddenly felt that "their room directly spreads the soil on the table and grows mushroom lamps, and it is easy to dirty the body", so he thought that "mushrooms also need a home", the next two days, He did everything possible to beg Xiaomei to burn more flower pots for him.

One? not enough! At least ten!

Of course, Xiaomei did not burn ten, but only five.

As for the two cloth towels... Although Xiaomei has never woven cloth, who is he? As long as you observe some existing fabrics and combine other knowledge in your brain, it is easy to make a loom, but as powerful as Xiaomei, he can't weave fabrics out of thin air without materials. There is no second plant!

so…

After all, the two cloth towels were made of the only fabric on them.

As for the "only cloth on the body"...

Naturally, it can only be the trousers that Xiaomei was originally wearing.

After all, he did not earn honor in this regard.

oRZ

Basically, these seemingly simple but extremely rare items were all "forced" by Xiaomei's robot.

During this period, Ronggui was not busy and did not help. On the contrary, he was quite eager to try, but since he was really disabled, basically he could only help with suggestions, digging soil, and finally writing on the washbasin " face", write a "foot" on the foot pot, and draw a few abstract flowers on the flower pot...

That's all.

orZ

By the way, didn't Ronggui diligently make a mushroom umbrella for two people's bodies to "bathe in the sun"

That thing collapsed that night, and it was very risky that the bodies of the two had already been put back, otherwise Xiaomei could be tossed to death just by cleaning up the fallen mud and "mushrooms".

Why did you say that Xiaomei was tossed to death

nonsense! Is this kind of meticulous work honorable

He must have been cheering by the side, leaving Xiaomei to do all the work alone! ! !

Ah... By the way, don't you need a basket to store ground beans? The basket is also made by Xiaomei, using iron wire, forgot to count this.

"Xiaomei, you are amazing!"

"It's really good~"

When Xiaomei was doing production next to her, Ronggui was beside her and whispered sweetly. The first time she heard such words, Xiaomei's whole robot was not good, but listen and listen... He got used to it.

Early this morning, Ronggui, as always, began to praise Xiaomei again:

"Wow~ Xiaomei, you're amazing! I just wanted to make a mark to distinguish two cloth towels, but you can still embroider flowers!!! There are green and red! Can you make colors?"

The Xiaomei robot, who was dripping the last drop of dye on the cloth towel, looked up and glanced at him: "The green color is extracted from the leaves of the ground beans, which is the mushroom in your mouth."

"As for red, it is a natural dye obtained by processing anthocyanins extracted from sweet potatoes. Although it is water-soluble, the color can be more durable after treatment."

Of course, if there is no ground beans, he can still think of ways from the rust, but if the ground beans can solve the problem, he does not need to waste metal.

This is what he didn't say.

However-

Ronggui obviously had no interest in the principle and process of how the dye was made. After listening to Xiaomei's words, he praised Xiaomei again, and then said: "Red and green are beautiful, but colorful ones are more beautiful~ Xiaomei, you can try it next. How about trying to get a yellow one? I like yellow very much~ Look, we still have five grey flowerpots waiting to be decorated..."

Xiaomei: "…"

Do you think there are only five flower pots waiting for Xiaomei

You are so naive to think so~

Even Xiaomei herself is not so simple.

Soon, after appreciating the small potted mushrooms he made, Ronggui greeted Xiaomei and started massaging the two of them.

After a period of nursing, both of them are in better physical condition than before.

"Xiaomei is one centimeter taller." The imaging system of the robot is really easy to use, and it also has a measuring ruler!

"My hair is one centimeter long." Ronggui continued to announce after touching his hair lightly.

Xiaomei's physical condition is very good. Of course, this is related to the fact that he received adequate care within a few days of being put in. Naturally, Ronggui's physical condition cannot be compared with Xiaomei's, but compared to the dry appearance at the earliest, now...

At least it doesn't feel that hard.

This is the result of diligent massage every day.

However, there are advantages and disadvantages as well. Since they are moved around every day during this time, the skin of the two bodies is fine - it is not too dirty every day, but the hair is not so good.

"Xiaomei, I think we need a comb, at least dipped in water to clean our hair."

Gently wrapping a strand of Xiaomei's hair around the rough mechanical fingers, Ronggui raised his head and said to Xiaomei.

really-

Xiaomei's face did not change.

"It's just a pity that even if you have a comb, you can only comb the exposed parts, and the back of the head can't be helped..."

This sentence was said by Ronggui looking at his body.

In addition to the mouth-nose device, the two men also had a metal shield covering the back of their heads, which was connected to their brains. Under normal circumstances, band stimulation can be generated in the metal cover to massage the head and stimulate the head, but the equipment on the back of the head is obviously more complicated.

According to Xiaomei's explanation: The metal cover on the back of Xiaomei's head can be removed for a short time, but the one on the back of Ronggui's head cannot. The catheter inserted into the back of his head is connected to this instrument.

Ronggui didn't pay much attention to this problem at first, until Xiaomei made a comb, and the two of them finished combing Xiaomei's body, and it was Ronggui's hair.

When moving his head, Ronggui finally saw what the back of his head looked like now. It was a translucent metal cover, a bit strange, right? Although it is metal, it is translucent.

Probably the black technology of the future ← Although I don’t know what era it is, but time is moving forward, it must be the future now, Ronggui thought for granted.

Because it is translucent, Ronggui saw a hole in the back of his head for the first time.

very big hole.

In fact, there is no blood. Due to the barrier of the metal cover, Ronggui cannot accurately judge the current color there. However, there is no blood and flesh there, but a circular hole is accurately opened, and the catheter as thick as two fingers is so plug it in there. The surrounding hair has been shaved. After the conditioning for the past few days, the hair in the rest of Ronggui has grown a little bit longer. However, the scalp under the metal hood is still slick. scalp.

What does it feel like to witness your own head being opened up

Holding his head carefully, Ronggui didn't dare to move.

"Don't be particularly nervous, this nursing instrument is very firm." Seeing his movements, Xiaomei said calmly beside him.

Ronggui was so nervous that he didn't even dare to nod his head.

On this day, there are very few words from Ronggui.

Xiaomei felt that this state was very good at first, and it was clean after a long time, but at night, when Ronggui, who was always shutting down obediently every day, suddenly got up in the middle of the night, he felt a little strange.

Since the two were plugged together to charge every day, he knew when Ronggui left.

He didn't pay attention at first until the other party didn't come back for thirty minutes.

Jumping off the charger, Xiaomei decided to go out and have a look.

He went directly outside ← Ronggui pushed the door out, he heard it.

It was easy to find people in the open space, and he soon found Ronggui's figure beside the green bean fields outside. In the darkness, the shabby little robot just sat beside the ridge with his knees on his knees, and the green oil light illuminated part of his surface, making him look even more shabby.

It seemed that he stayed in this posture for nearly thirty minutes.

"Is there a problem with Didoutian?" Xiaomei's first thought... was to carefully look at the Didoutian in front of Ronggui.

Ronggui shook his head.

"That's you, do you have any problems?" Xiaomei asked again.

Ronggui did not speak.

Xiaomei stood quietly beside him.

The robots on the ridge then turned into two.

After a while, just when Xiaomei decided to go back to continue charging, Rong Gui, who was squatting below him, suddenly spoke up:

"Xiaomei, with such a big hole in my head, will I... die?"

Was it really frightened by his own real misery

"I don't want to die. I'm only eighteen years old, and I haven't seen anything yet. Our orphanage is a small place. I've only been in a big city for a month, and I haven't seen anything in the world..." Ronggui whispered again road.

Xiaomei stood quietly in the wind, and after a long while: "Actually, the body is just a container for manifesting consciousness in front of others. This container was single in the past, but now it is not, just as you now have a container in this world. Two, one in the house and one in front of me."

Ronggui was stunned:

"Xiaomei, what you said is so complicated, I... I don't understand... "

"It doesn't matter if your body in the house is broken, you can use other containers to cover it." Xiaomei said another way.

"But I just want the one in the house!"

Xiaomei then lowered her head and looked down at the other robot who had shrunk herself into a small ball.

At this moment, he was really puzzled.

"If you think that this mechanical body is worn out and not good, in fact, you can go outside and replace it with better materials in the future. You can also simulate the skin. The advanced materials are very durable, and it doesn't matter if it is damaged. You can replace it at any time."

"But I only want the one in the house." The little robot below returned him the same sentence as before.

"That's my own body, abandoned by parents I haven't seen before, raised by the grandmother of the orphanage, fighting with friends, climbing walls, trees and digging eggs... I actually have a lot of scars on my body! Of course, Because of my persistent care, those scars are almost invisible, but if you look closely, there are still some scars. When I see those scars, I can think of what happened back then... "

"I took care of my skin every day after that! I also practiced my muscles diligently. In fact, it's not easy for me to gain muscle. It's very hard to train like that. Every muscle is my hard work. It's so hard..."

"I have nothing, only my body is the only property..."

"I just want the one in the house."

Ronggui said a lot, and his words turned over and over again, and finally fell on the original words.
