Chapter 528: Still Uncomfortable
The contrast between these is too great, and even Tang You couldn't help but take a few more looks.
Rod's previous appearance can't be regarded as a public face, it can be said that it is unforgettable when you have seen it, and it is the same now, but the style has turned one hundred and eighty degrees, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and his face is tender and can pinch out water, but even so, no one will think that he has the slightest femininity.
Sensing Tang You's gaze, Rod still had the kung fu to turn his head and glare at her, but after changing to the current face, the lethality decreased significantly.
And over there, the skull and Zhuo Lian also came closer.
"Boss, Mr. Zhuo!"
Rod turned to a big smile on his face, looking like a small animal wagging his tail waiting to be praised, especially those big eyes that looked crystal clear, it was hard to imagine that he was still playing a fierce man a moment ago.
"Rested?"
Zhuo Lian stretched out his hand to pat his head, but was dodged by the other party, and Rod looked at him with a serious face and said, "A man's head is not touched casually!" ”
Xiao Rin looked up at them, and subconsciously reached out and touched his head.
"You're poor." Zhuo Lian stretched out his hand and patted Xiao Rin's little head: "When I was a child, I was obviously very cute." ”
"When I was a child, you seemed to be much older than me!"
In addition to the abnormally immature face of Rhodes, his body is actually quite tall, otherwise he would not be able to pretend to be a big man.
The skull let them play, nodded at Tang You, and walked over, the combat uniform on his body was still as clean and tidy as when he first saw it.
The Skeleton Pirates are recently preparing to land on a planet. It is also very energy-consuming to keep the battleship in the stars when there is no action, and they will not allow such a waste no matter how rich they are, and it just so happens that the skeletons also need to go out for activities.
Under the nose of the log, the Skeleton Pirate Regiment calmly passed the security check of the army and entered the planet of the Federation.
They are still in the Infinity Star Field, which is a not too developed planet.
After landing, Zhuo Lian allowed everyone to go out and let off steam, but they were not allowed to cause trouble.
And removing a layer of camouflage from the appearance, I have to say that it is really difficult to be disgusted by the appearance of the skeletons.
With the skull and Zhuo Lian there, the pirates were not worried about what Tang You and the three of them would do. In an instant, he ran clean.
Xiao Rin asked Zhuo Lian's consent. Ran to find Tang You: "Do you want to go out for a walk?" ”
Tang You didn't refuse, in fact, he said to go for a walk, that is, to eat and drink everywhere, and to play completely relaxed.
But on such a not-so-prosperous planet. There's only so much you can play. But for Xiao Rin, who doesn't have much contact with the outside world, there are still a lot of strange things.
The two of them walked outside for a while, but they saw that the sky was starting to darken.
This is a sign of rain. The two of them did not continue to run, preparing to go back before the rain.
By the time they returned to their quarters where the Skeleton Pirates had stayed, raindrops were already falling from the sky. The other skeletons didn't all come back.
Yuan Mu sat in the hall and said with a straight face when he saw her come back, "Where did you go?" ”
Tang You casually said a few things that he went to today, and wiped the raindrops on his face for Xiao Rin.
Seeing this, the log also subconsciously reached out to wipe the water stains on Tang You's face, and when his hand touched the other party's skin, it seemed that an electric current suddenly flowed in his body, making his scalp blow up, and when he reacted, he had already taken a step back, but his eyes were staring at a pink mark that was pinched out of Tang You's face.
And Tang You's feeling was that he was pinched by the log, reached out and touched the reddish place on his face, and said casually: "What are you doing?" ”
But before she could say anything, Yuan Mu glared at her, turned around and flew away.
Tang You and Xiao Rin glanced at each other, but they didn't know why.
The sky changed quickly, and not long after they came back, it began to rain heavily, which was basically impossible for the Setting Sun Star, which had always had a mild climate, but it reminded Tang You of the time when he was training on Gamma Star, the situation at that time would only get worse.
The raindrops poured down like a waterfall, and in a short time a layer of water accumulated on the ground, and the visibility became even worse, and I could only see the distant scene clearly.
The inhabitants of the planet seem to have become accustomed to this phenomenon and have been prepared for a long time, the houses are as high as several floors, and there is no need to worry about being flooded, but the humid and cold weather is unavoidable.
The other skeletons were out there and didn't come back, and there were only a few people left in the separate building.
The log sat on the sofa and maintained a posture since he had just pumped the wind, and Lin Tian stayed on the side, as always, making wooden cones in case of emergency.
The skeleton man sat on the other side, and it was rare that they all stayed in harmony in the hall.
The skull stood in front of the window, his eyes still silent as he looked at the rain outside, only his right arm shrank slightly.
But this action could not be concealed from Zhuo Lian, the latter's face was a little more serious, and he reached out and grabbed his right arm and said, "Uncomfortable? ”
The skull paused, then shook its head.
But Xiao Rin had already gotten up and went over, frowning and worried: "Is it still uncomfortable?" ”
There were not many people in the hall at all, and they could basically hear what they were talking about, and even the log came back to his senses, his eyes roaming over his right arm.
"I know what you're thinking." Zhuo Lian suddenly said: "You guessed right, this arm is indeed fake." As he spoke, he had already lifted the neat sleeves of the skull's neat and meticulous clothes, revealing the cold and hard metal prosthetics inside.
It's one thing to hear it, but it's still different when you actually see it, because the skull usually behaves like a normal person, and if it wasn't for the log that had mentioned this, it would have been difficult to find out at all.
"Ah Lian!"
The skull frowned, reached out and lowered the sleeve, as if sensing a trace of a wrinkle on the sleeve, and the brow never let go.
"There's nothing you can't say." Zhuo Lian didn't stop: "It's just that this prosthetic leg is a little wrong, and it is inevitable that it will be a little difficult in weather like this." ”
The fingers of the skull pressed against the sleeve had made a dent. Xiao Rin sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere, and couldn't help but shout, "Mr. Zhuo? ”
Zhuo Lian smiled at him: "It's better to be careful, if the wound continues to deteriorate, I'm afraid it will be hopeless." ”
"Ah Lian!"
The skull's tone this time was much harsher than just now, and he looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Don't say it again." ”
Zhuo Lian lowered his eyelids and didn't speak again, and for a while he could only hear the sound of rain outside in the hall, beating on the ground like a chaotic drumbeat.
The skull stood for a moment, then turned and went upstairs, the sound of footsteps hidden in the rain. Farther and farther away.
Yuan Mu looked at the staircase where there was no longer a figure, and his expression was inexplicable. And Lin Tian didn't know when he clenched the wooden cone in his hand, and when he let go again, only a pile of powder slipped from his fingers.
The rain came quickly and fell for a long time, and it didn't stop until it got dark. The rain has risen to a metre high.
Tang You went back to the lounge after eating. It's inevitable that it will be a bit dull in such weather. After thinking about it, he sent a text message to his little brother, and the next moment the other side dialed.
Tang Xiaoze seemed to have just finished training, and his hair was still a little sweaty. He stretched out his hand to the back of his head, and it looked a little more steady.
Tang You suddenly realized that his little brother seemed to be really starting to grow up, but unfortunately she wasn't even around.
"Where are you?"
Tang Xiaoze first looked at the environment behind Tang You, and asked after finding that it was a relatively ordinary lounge.
"In the Infinity Star Field." Tang You didn't hide it: "I also met someone." ”
"Who?"
"Xiao Rin."
Tang Xiaoze was stunned for a moment, he still had a deep impression of Xiao Rin, and couldn't help asking, "How is he?" ”
At that time, the two of them sent a child to such a remote place, in fact, he was also annoyed afterwards, and always felt that the acquaintance might not be reliable, thinking that it was better to take it with him, but at that time, it was basically impossible to find someone.
Immediately, Tang You roughly explained Xiao Rin's situation, and it didn't seem so bad, but Tang Xiaoze was obviously surprised when he heard about the Skeleton Pirate Group.
"Skeletons? You're still with them?! ”
Apparently he didn't think Log would make such a decision.
But that's what it turned out.
Listening to Tang You talk about the situation of the Skeleton Pirate Group again, Tang Xiaoze's brows still did not loosen, it was really that the memory of being hijacked on the ship at that time was too deep, and at that time he only thought about being inseparable from the Skeleton Pirate Group.
"Marshal Mu is also with you, and Lin Tian?"
After getting a positive answer, Tang Xiaoze finally put a snack, but when he thought that Tang You was so thrilling every day, he felt that his daily training was not enough.
Now it's time for the screening of the mecha competition again, and the level of the two freshmen of Tang You's Fu and Sheng Yang is very high, and the situation that the junior students are not competitive as before has not happened again.
But after the start of school, Tang Xiaoze will be in the third grade, and his own strength is better than that of the geniuses of Tong Xuanning and He Junyu, and he is a proper candidate to enter the candidates.
It's just that no matter how fast the development is, it is impossible to become a fat man in one go, and Saint Yang can be said to surpass the Taiyi Military Academy in the Gumera Star Domain, but it is not so easy in the entire Federation.
So being a student of St. Yang is also quite stressful.
Tang Xiaoze was already about to break through the third order, Tang You calculated the days, thinking that she should try to go back before this, otherwise she was really a little worried.
After chatting for a while, Tang Xiaoze had already returned to the dormitory, wanting to clean up, but he was reluctant to hang up the communication.
"It's fine." Tang You said: "You can open it." ”
Tang Xiaoze immediately glared at her, and the next moment the screen went dark.
Tang You stared at the communicator for a while, then got up and walked to the door, opened the door and looked at the log standing outside: "Something?" ”
The log seemed to be slipping away, and she suddenly opened the door without warning, her body stiffened for a moment, and then she said casually: "Prepare for us to go." ”
Tang You looked at it, it was late at night, and the rain was still falling, but he still didn't ask much and nodded, "Let's go." ”
Because of the sudden encounter with the Skeleton Pirates, the original plan was disrupted, and the matter of finding the little man was also brought forward.
The desolate stars of the Wuji Star Domain have been swept away by the army led by Fang Cheng, and everything that should be caught has been caught, and it is difficult to find the rest of those who escaped.
The only clue is Tang You's ability connection.
As a result, Tang You found that in just a few days, the little man was actually taken to the Xinglan Empire, what kind of speed did this have.
After a few days of negotiations, the log and the skeleton also formed a preliminary cooperation agreement, with only one purpose, that is, to find a way to dig up the mysterious organization.
When Tang You went downstairs, he saw that the skull and Zhuo Lian were there, because Xiao Rin was too young to be on the mission.
Zhuo Lian said, "What about another person?" ”
Without waiting for the log to answer, there was a sound of footsteps over there, and Lin Tian walked out.
This time they came to this planet in addition to the ground, but also because the skeleton got the news before, I heard that people often disappear here, it seems inconspicuous, but the connection is very similar to the people often recruited by mysterious organizations, and they chose to settle here with the idea that they can't miss it.
The people who acted were Tang You, plus Skull and Rod, although Zhuo Lian had a good head, but his skills could only be regarded as average, at most he gave them ideas behind his back, so he would not follow them.
It's raining heavily, but it's not like no one goes out, and on such an ordinary planet, if you stay at home and don't go out because of a few heavy rains, you probably won't even be able to eat.
Fortunately, now that science and technology are developed, there are still a lot of practical things, such as the defensive cover to avoid the rain, as long as you turn on the energy switch on your body, you can block the washing of the rain within a certain range, and it does not consume too much energy, which is very convenient.
There was a place outside the door separating the rain curtain, and it was Rhodes, who had been waiting outside for a long time.
When Rod was a pirate, most of him looked like a man with a scar, but when he was usually lurking, he looked much more ordinary, and he definitely looked like a man who was still difficult to find in the crowd.
Tang You also opened the energy cover, to be honest, this is the first time she has used this thing, she either didn't go out and didn't use it before, or it didn't rain at all in the place where she was, or she didn't hide from the rain at all when she was training, so that she didn't see this thing that was common sense in the Federation until now.
The consequence of this was that Tang You did not check the energy reserve of the rain shelter, and when he walked a certain distance, the energy shield only had time to alarm and disappeared.
But the pouring rain did not pour on Tang You, and before that, the log quickly dragged her into his rain shelter.
The space for a single person's rain shelter is limited, and the hand that holds Tang You's arm is a little sweaty even in such weather, and his heartbeat is even more vibrating as if ringing in his ears, and in an instant, it seems that the whole world has become this small rain shelter, and there is nothing else. (To be continued......)
