"How much is this?" Tang Yue held up a finger.

"One."

"How much is this?" Tang Yue held up two fingers.

"Two."

"What is one plus two?"

Tang Yue held up four fingers.

"Three." The old cat sighed, stretched out his paws, and pulled away the huge head dangling in front of him, "Is your brain broken?" ”

"I'm worried you're in the wrong head." Tang Yue said, "You just walked and floated, you know, swaying like you were drunk, you actually tripped over the charging cable, and catnip sucked too much?" ”

The old cat sat on the ground leaning on the wheel, the broken left arm was on its lap at the moment, Tang Yue squatted in front of it, nervously checking up and down, but he didn't dare to do it rashly, he didn't dare to touch it anywhere, as the old cat said, this is not his professional scope, Tang Yue didn't know about the old cat's body structure, it stands to reason that such a serious injury, no one can repair it rashly, and it must be returned to the factory.

Tang Yue helped the old cat plug in the charging cable, the damage on the latter's body was not only a broken arm, the cat was covered with scars, most of them Tang Yue didn't know the reason, it could be seen that the old cat tried his best to repair it, but the conditions were too poor, and the place where the hair fell out could only be simply repaired with tape, which was so rough that it was terrifying.

Tang Yue suddenly realized that the old cat in his impression was not like this, at least a year ago, the old cat was still an elegant cross talk master and Kunlun station master, a babbling landlord, who paid great attention to maintaining his fur and beard, but now it looked like a death squad member who had just left the battlefield, covered in bruises.

Since when has it become like this?

"Can you still pick it up?"

"Absolutely." The old cat picked up the severed limb and shook it, dusting off the sand particles on the fur, and his movements were quite terrifying, "Don't look like this, it seems to be very scary, like a fatal injury, but it's actually not a big deal......

"You just said it wasn't a big deal." Tang Yue interrupted it, "But in the blink of an eye, it fell to the ground." ”

"It's just a broken claw, a person who breaks an arm will die, but I'm a cat, and a cat has a broken arm......"

"Will die too."

"Anyway, I won't go into shock from blood loss, I'm not in a hurry, what are you anxious about." The old cat said, "My limb joints themselves are detachable, so that they can be easily replaced, repaired and upgraded, this is the interface reserved by my designers, so don't look at it broken, in fact, this is not an amputation, it is not a fracture, at most it is just a dislocation......

As he spoke, the old cat carefully cleaned up the severed limbs, put them on his shoulders, adjusted the angle left and right, and buckled it up as hard as a bottle cap.

A crisp and subtle click.

The broken arm has been connected.

Simple and clean.

Tang Yue was stunned, dare to love the old cat, limbs are external devices like USB flash drives? Plug and use, and also support hot swapping?

"Hmm...... It's not as sharp as before, and it's a lack of maintenance for a long time, and the wear and tear of the joints is a bit serious, but it can still be used, but I don't know how much force it can bear. The old cat moved its paws, "As things stand, it shouldn't be a problem to hold on to the end." ”

Tang Yue breathed a sigh of relief and sat on the ground, sweat soaking through his clothes.

"You scared the hell out of me, you know? If you fall here, what will you let me do? ”

Tang Yue's hand was still shaking uncontrollably, and his heart palpitated.

"What if there is such a day...... I couldn't walk, and the stray dogs couldn't walk, so you put me on the hillside, and let me sit on the ground against a rock, and leave me two solar panels. The old cat said, "Then dismantle my parts and make a simple shortwave antenna, will you?" It's the kind that can transmit Morse code. ”

Tang Yue was stunned for a moment, not understanding what this meant.

"Make a little shortwave radio with you so you can reach me...... Send me the data from the catalog every night, and as long as I can see the stars, I can help you determine your bearing. The old cat looked up, "Who told you that stupid boy can't learn to navigate?" What if you get lost? ”

"I won't leave you." Tang Yue shook his head, "If you can't walk, I'll carry you on my back." ”

"I'm so heavy, how can you carry it?"

"Then I don't care, even if I crawl on all fours, even if I wriggle on the ground with all my hands and feet, moving inch by inch, I have to take you with me." Tang Yue said.

"Why do you take me with you with a handicap?"

"I still have teeth!" Tang Yue bared his teeth, "I'll walk with you with my teeth." ”

The old cat smiled, it knew that Tang Yue was, and he must not open the mask of the Mingguang Armor when exposed to the Martian environment, otherwise Tang Yue would quickly lose pressure and die, and it was impossible for him to bite anything with his teeth.

"Your life is more important than mine." The old cat said, "Whatever you're going to do, remember that this is your number one rule." ”

"I can't live without you." Tang Yue said, "Whatever you do, remember that this is your first rule. ”

The old cat smacked his mouth, as a robot cat, it will always have a priority, Tang Yue's life safety is undoubtedly above everything, nothing is more important than his life, but Tang Yue's orders are also above everything - the old cat used to be very disgusted with the inexplicable thing of Asimov's three laws of robots, saying that this is the illogical fantasy of the ancients, detached from reality and full of loopholes, non-mathematical and non-physical, and outright feudal dross.

It is clear that the three laws of robotics have never been realized, otherwise cruise missiles and drones would not have been born.

Now it seems that feudal dross actually has a place for use.

If the old cat is under the banner of following the three laws of robots, then it can refuse to carry out Tang Yue's orders, and everything is to ensure Tang Yue's safety as the highest priority.

It's a pity that it has already let Tang Yue know that it despises Asimov.

"Don't worry, I haven't reached the end of my life yet, people on the earth still owe me a bunch of real estate estates, especially apartments in Tongzhou District, more than 100 square meters, old and valuable, I am still waiting to go back to provide for the elderly." The old cat got up and patted his buttocks, "The beautiful retirement life of the old cadre is still waiting for me ahead, how can I fall here?" ”

"This universe has not only taken away your earth, but also my old age, what can I do as an old cat who is about to retire? I only have such a pitiful belongings, and if anyone dares to rob me of my pension, I will do it hard! ”

"Never provoke a desperate old cat, being desperate will make the cat no longer care about your life, and old will make the cat no longer care about his own life!"

"If we have no way out, then move forward! Advance! Move forward by any means! Thomas Vader! Move forward by any means! ”

The old cat said loudly, waving its paws fiercely, and walked towards the Martian stray dogs.

Tang Yue stood in place with a brush.

He was silent for a few seconds.

"Old cat, is this arm on the ground yours?"
