The leaking hole in the pipe was in the afternoon, and the two of them had already repaired it with materials, and because the small door on the top of the pipe was really inconvenient before, Neil simply installed a door through this broken opening.

"Coming back?" Neil saw Green dragging his tired body into the pipe, and after greeting slightly, he continued his work and said: "The damage to the optical brain chip is not serious, I took it apart and checked it carefully, it should be the leakage of the heat dissipation module, as long as the heat dissipation plate is replaced, and then clean up the leaking coolant, the light brain chip can work normally." ”

"We don't have a heat sink for a light brain chip, right?" When Green heard this, he frowned slightly and said: "For a precision instrument like a light brain chip, the heat sink is not ordinary, and the coolant is also a high-end product." ”

"So tomorrow I'm going to go to the trading area to have a look, if I can find the best, I really can't find it, it doesn't matter." Neil smiled and said, "I've seen it in the teacher's shop, and when the time comes, I'll discuss with him and get the goods at a cost price." ”

"It's good to have a good master," Green looked envious.

Neil smiled slightly, but his expression was not very happy, and said softly: "The biggest headache is the problem of psionic ore, we definitely don't have it, if you go to Pease Town to buy it, the price is not something I can afford." ”

"Each piece of psionic ore is mined with a unique number, which is imported into the corresponding system. That is, any link is controlled, so even on the black market, it is rarely revealed. Neil rubbed his head.

Well, it's a headache, but it's imperative to fix the optobrain chip first.

Green walked to the door, found a place to sit down, looked at the gray night sky, and changed the subject to a lighter topic: "I don't know what kind of person your master is." ”

"Teacher?" Neil put down his work, thought for a long time, and said slowly: "The teacher is the owner of a mechanical transformation shop in Pease Town. His shop is different from other stores, and he doesn't accept all orders. Of course, it's not cheap to ask him to make a move. ”

"He happened to be here for business." Neil said, a little embarrassed, "It's funny to think about at the time, I remember that I accidentally bumped into the teacher and broke his glasses. I thought he was going to beat me up, but he didn't care at all and gave me a book! Do you know what our book means? That's knowledge! Without the enlightenment of that book, I don't know what it would have been like now. ”

"Galamon's Elementary Mechanical World?" Green asked tentatively.

Neil turned his head and asked curiously, "How do you know?" ”

"I read your book, only this book has the most annotations and the most detailed, this book should be your enlightenment reading." Green smiled and said.

"yes, that's the book. Later, he came several times in succession, and each time he would bring me something, and he gave me the books on my desk. Neil cried with a sad face and said sadly: "It's all because of the mutant rat tide, now there are only three books left, and I don't know how to explain it to the teacher." ”

Books? It's all burned by the fire demon that he incarnated.

Green coughed and said, "As long as the person is alive, these other foreign objects will come back sooner or later!" ”

"Hmm." Neil smiled reluctantly and said, "I hope so." ”

With that, Neil also walked out, and after a long day's work, he was a little tired, so he found a random place to sit down.

"Listen to what you said, your teacher is so good to you, so why did he confiscate you as an apprentice?" Green asked, a little confused.

"Teacher, he is a master mechanic, I dare say, in Pease Town, the most skilled person is the teacher!" Neil scratched his head and said, "Maybe it's because my level is too poor, and if I am taken as an apprentice, the teacher will feel ashamed." However, I am confident that sooner or later I will be able to make him take me as an apprentice and be proud of me! ”

Shaking his head, Green always felt that this reason was unlikely, but he couldn't say why.

Looking into the distance, except for a few stars, the whole world is almost dark.

Green suddenly asked, "Neil, why did you save me before?" ”

"Why?" Some doubts also flashed through Neil's mind, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Maybe I think you look like me." ”

"Like?"

"Well, it's like. I was left in the rubble when I was very young, and it was my mother-in-law who picked me up and raised me. Neil looked a little gloomy and said, "When I saw you that day, I remembered my mother-in-law." She not only taught me literacy, but also taught me a lot of things. In this world, a weak woman still has to raise a child, can you imagine how hard it is? ”

I can't imagine. Whether it's what you eat, drink, or whatever. Sometimes a disease from an acid rain can destroy everything in you!

"She must be a kind person, right?"

"She is indeed a kind person, but such a kind mother-in-law, those brutes can do it! I still remember that guy, that face, deeply imprinted here! Neil pointed to his head, gritted his teeth and said: "They are a group of bastards, punch after punch, kick after kick, I can't pull it, just beat my mother-in-law to death, in front of my eyes!" Why is that?! Who did the mother-in-law offend? Why do this to her?! ”

"Someday, I'm going to make those guys pay for their blood!" Neil gritted his teeth and said angrily.

"I'm sorry for reminding you of something bad." Green didn't expect such a story to be in it, and said apologetically.

"I don't blame you. If you don't think about some things, it doesn't mean that they don't exist, I just miss my mother-in-law a little. Neil shook his head and said, "My mother-in-law's favorite thing to listen to is a song "Hometown", let me blow it to you?" ”

As he spoke, Neil pulled out an old dark blue harmonica from his pocket, which looked a little old but was well maintained. He put the harmonica to his mouth and began to play.

Melodious music sounded, and Green had not heard the tune, but his mind had already flown away to a distant place. It was the end of winter, and the wilderness was full of snow, and the treetops in the mountains were full of ice-prismatic flowers; Although the river is still frozen, you can already hear the sound of running water coming from under the ice.

This is a picture of home! Green couldn't help but think of the winter in his hometown, and the emotions of longing crawled into his heart. I don't know if there is a chance in this life, and then look at my hometown.

I don't know when, Neil's music has stopped, he calmly looked at the night sky, and smirked: "May there be no more pain in the world, no more sorrow!" ”

Green listened quietly, not speaking to break the silence.

It's a great wish, but it's also too big. Humanity is now in a remote corner, and those who are truly capable are huddled in the cities, content with the status quo. Displaced people like them who are struggling in polluted areas can live every day thanks to God, what can they change?

It's still too weak in the end. Maybe it's enough to have the power of a high-level flame spirit like the one before, right?

"Okay, let's not talk about that, I have to sort out the things I got today tonight, check which parts need to be replaced, and go back to buy them when I go to the trading area tomorrow."

Green also wanted to see the trading area, so he said, "I'll go with you tomorrow, and see the trading area by the way." ”

Neil thought for a moment and said, "I'll have to go to Dr. Jason's tomorrow first, and I guess I won't be able to go to the trading area until the afternoon." ”

"Good!"

Then tomorrow afternoon, by the way, go to the swamp of that day in the morning to see, if you can earn some more psionic points, you can really not be able to brush some proficiency.

One-star mutant creatures, Green doesn't have the strength to deal with them now, so let's brush some psionic points first.

Thousands of high-rise buildings rise from the ground, you have to make yourself stronger as soon as possible!
