Chapter 218: Imperial Capital Accent?
Suddenly, there was a stronger and stronger change in the magnetic field around Xilin, and the surroundings of Xilin's body were already distorted.
Cillin finally understood what the reason for that obedient feeling was.
The curly leaf pattern on the fingers reacted because of this open space-time vortex. The huge attraction pulls Xilin towards
To be precise, that attraction is aimed at the curly leaf pattern, but now Cillin, who is stuck to the curly leaf pattern, has become the bearer of this force.
A green glow emerges from the leaf vein, enveloping the entire sill.
Xilin stood relatively backward, after all, the front was reserved for people like Gada and Jifeng, so Xilin spontaneously stood at the back of the team, and now everyone looked at the space-time vortex in space, and no one paid attention to Xilin, so no one paid attention to the abnormality at the beginning.
When the gray cat turned his head to look, the light had just come out of the leaf curl pattern, and this light gave the gray cat a very scary feeling, and the gray cat often acted on intuition, so when he saw this light, a sentence appeared in his mind: Xilin is going to the other side of the space-time vortex!
So the gray cat jumped straight over, its paws wrapped around Cillin's arm, and its tail was wrapped tightly around it.
The gray cat has appeared in this world for so many years, and it really believes in Xilin, and the others, even if they are people from the Sixth Fleet, there is room for the trust of the gray cat, but what will it do if something happens to Xilin or suddenly disappears? Will it be caught and dissected by those strange scientists? Also, where there is Xilin, it won't go hungry, if you keep it, then you can't go back to the original standard of living?
Absolutely not!
The gray cat's movements were actually faster than its thoughts, and the rest of its thoughts were only thought after it had captured Cillin.
Xiying slowed down. By the time he passed, the light had enveloped both Sirin and the gray cat, and he was bounced away.
Even the extreme front and they couldn't get close to Xilin, and the magnetic field fluctuations around Xilin were getting stronger and stronger, and the figures of Xilin and the gray cat had already blurred. And the people did not force themselves to come near.
Seeing Xiying being bounced away, the gray cat spit out the ring in his mouth, if he and Xilin were not there, would Xiying be lonely, would he not be embarrassed by the others in the vanguard, would he be hungry, would he be ...... Either way, the contents of this ring are enough to support Xiying to stand on his own.
It's really hard for this cat to think of these things for Xiying at such an emergency time, in fact, the gray cat thinks about it. With Xilin in it, it is an absolute meal ticket, it will definitely be better than Xiying, and it is still more caring for the "own people" gray cat.
The gray cat originally had something to say to Xiying, but he didn't have the opportunity to say anything.
The light is getting brighter and brighter. The figures of Sirin and the gray cat grew weaker and weaker, and then a ray of light flickered, shooting straight into the space-time vortex above.
After the light submerged into the vortex, the space-time vortex slowly weakened until it disappeared.
Everything is back to the way it was. But. There was a dead silence all around now, there was no talk, and everyone stared blankly at the vanishing space-time vortex.
The long-awaited "shortcut" just appeared and disappeared?
Ignoring the others' thoughts, Sikage reached out to catch the slowly falling ring that the gray cat spat at him. Close your fingers and grasp the ring firmly in your palm. This is the ring that was stripped from Osculo, and the gray cat has always been a treasure. Xilin is also going to use this ring as a reserve "granary" for the gray cat and the western shadow. But now, only Xiying is alone.
Xiying tried to contact Gray Cat and Xilin. But there was no sign of their lives at all, the liaison on Cillin's body could not be contacted, and neither could the gray cat, as if these two had suddenly disappeared.
These two suddenly disappeared.
Although he is just a robot, but now Xiying suddenly has a feeling that has never appeared before, he can't say what that feeling is, it's too complicated, and it's uncomfortable to describe it again and again, quite uncomfortable.
Sigma will fully express her thoughts, but Xiying is more restrained, still the same face that does not change its expression all year round, but the look in her eyes has already made a lot of waves. It's just that Xiying lowered his head and looked at the ring on his hand, so he didn't let anyone else see it.
"Huh? Eh!!!! The blue streaks of light on Sigma's face turned into several large vertical lines, and he cried out in a tangled voice.
Sigmar's cry called Gadhara back to God.
"They...... Got in? Xinzhao said.
Gada and the others were silent.
"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be!" Sigma screamed, waving her arms and rushing into the tunnel to see the machine.
Extreme Feng and his party also entered the room, wondering what was going on with this Tama.
After Sigma came inside, he held his head with both hands, and the blue streaks of light on his face flashed irregularly, which showed that Sigma was in a chaotic mood now.
The energy is all gone, and the connection node program is also chaotic, some instruments have major or minor problems, so to speak, the programs on these instruments have been confused and damaged, and it takes a lot of time to repair these.
Before the gray cat was sucked in, it caused a kind of "mechanical language" radiation, and even Xiying and Sigma had a momentary image, but Xiying and Sigma were more special after all, and they carried it, but the other instruments were not good, whether it was the flying machine staying not far away or the instrument in the planet, it was affected, and the program was chaotic.
Even the starship of the "Reaper", which had retreated relatively far away due to the time-space vortex, was affected and lost control for a while.
Sigma looked at the instruments there, "sobbing", and then looked at the West Shadow walking over, "What should I do?" The 'shortcut' can't be opened for the time being. ”
"How long will it take to open the 'shortcut' again?" Xiying asked. Ji Feng and the others also listened with their ears pricked up.
"It's going to take three or five years, I guess. But ......" Sigma looked at the string and a flickering icon on the center screen, but didn't say the "but", ending with a sigh.
Both Gada and Extreme Blade ask Sigma questions, and the conclusions they come to are ridiculous.
"Sirin and Purr may have been sent to the other side of the temporal vortex, and I don't know why this happened." Sigma to fingers. Tangled and aggrieved. His homecoming trip was in vain, and with Cillin and the gray cat gone, he would be alone.
Cillin didn't know what the others would think after he left, and he felt like he was isolated after being wrapped in that burst of green light. And at the moment when the green light shot into the space-time vortex, Xilin lost consciousness.
After a long time, he finally came to his senses, and Xilin now felt as if his whole body had been torn apart and put back together.
Loud noises, thrusters and speeding cars, voices that don't know what they're shouting, the sound of metal falling......
Slowly, it quieted down.
After some time, Sirin opened his eyes.
The scene in front of him reminded Sirin of the small room he had once had on brown Saturn.
Very rudimentary set-up. It can even be described as shabby.
In the corner, there was an old robot with bare lines lying there, seemingly for a long time, and there was already a layer of dust.
Cillin moved his fingers and felt fine.
But sitting up wasted the strength of Boss Xilin. It also hurt like iron burning in the muscles all over the body. Because the injuries that had been seriously injured by Osculo were not yet healed, and he had experienced a painful journey through the time and space vortex, and the pain of Xilin took a sharp breath.
Finally relieved and exhaled. Cillin saw the gray cat holding his arm like an octopus.
It's just that the gray cat is motionless now, frozen there, not breathing.
Cillin could feel the gray cat's breath of life, although the guy didn't breathe or have a heartbeat. But still alive.
Cillin flicked the gray cat's ear.
Motionless.
Poked the belly.
Still not moving.
Cillin frowned. Crashed?
Cillin was still in his old clothes, but the hazmat suit was left on a nearby shelf. Lots of breakage.
Suddenly sensing something, Cillin turned his head to look over. The voyeur shrank back, but not much.
One head, two heads, three heads.
Three round heads with extremely similar looks protruded from the side of the door. It doesn't look like a small bean. He was looking at Xilin with big eyes, his eyes were full of curiosity, and he was a little scared when he thought about it.
Sure enough, it's a child, and everything he thinks is directly expressed on his face.
Sirin smiled at them, but didn't say anything. He wasn't sure what the situation was, and he was afraid that the wrong thing would happen. A smile is a sign of kindness, especially for some children, who can get encouragement from a smile.
Seeing Xilin smiling at them, the three little beans were encouraged and also smiled at Xilin.
Although the layout in the room is shabby, it means that the conditions of the owner here are not good, but the three little beans have fleshy faces and no signs of malnutrition. It can be seen that the owner here still attaches great importance to the growth of children.
One of the little beans retracted his head and ran away, shouting something as he ran, which Cillin couldn't understand.
Sure enough, it was a strange place, and Xilin, the regional language of each star region of the Star Alliance, was Du, but now the child shouted that Xilin didn't understand it at all.
walked a small bean ding, and one of the remaining two bean ding was more courageous, walked over slowly, lay on the side of the bed and looked at Xilin, and said a word, but Xilin didn't understand.
The little guy said something again, and Cillin made a puzzled expression, indicating that he didn't understand. But after all, he was a child, and he didn't think about whether Xilin could understand the language, so he turned his head and said a few words to the little guy who was still probing his brain at the door.
As he was talking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and when I heard the voice, I knew it was an adult.
An old man was pulled by the little bean who had just run away, and walked in with a smile on his face. At most, he looks old, with a slightly hunched back, but he is in good spirits and healthy. The hands were rough and calloused.
After seeing Xilin who sat up, he said something, and Xilin looked at the old man suspiciously, saying that he didn't understand what they said.
In addition, even a little guy pounced on the old man, chirping and pointing at Xilin and not knowing what he was talking about.
Chang Laohan was repairing the machinery, and the grandson ran over to say that the person they had brought back had woken up, and was sitting on the bed and smiling at the three of them. Chang Laohan put down the work he was doing, and was pulled by his grandson's fingers to go this way.
Originally, because of the triplets' birthday, Chang Laohan promised them that he would take them around the planet for this birthday, and flew out of the planet in his own small broken flying machine a few days ago.
However, people in such conditions on their planet do not say whether the flying machine is good or bad, nor whether it can go on long voyages and warp flights. They can't afford the energy consumption of the aircraft alone, and it is not bad for a family like them to barely maintain the maintenance cost of a dilapidated aircraft, and for the sake of energy problems, Chang Laohan has accumulated a long time to be enough for this flight. And with the condition of their flying machine. I can't stay away from the planet at all, I can only fly symbolically, or my grandson's sharp eyes and see the person floating in space.
Because Xilin was wearing protective clothing at the time, Chang Laohan automatically classified Xilin as an engineer doing space operations. Space missions are very dangerous, and if you don't pay attention, you will be thrown into space and then abandoned, and often old men know a lot about situations like this. That's how many engineers die in space. Rich people will directly use maintenance robots, but those who don't have money can only use manpower. They can't afford such maintenance robots, and cheap maintenance robots are not at ease, so more unqualified people tend to hire maintenance engineers to complete space operations.
The money earned like that is earned with all your life. Chang Laohan also did that kind of thing when he was young. But now that I'm getting older, there's another thing that I can't let go of these little guys at home, and I haven't been exposed to that kind of thing anymore, and I'm doing my current job dutifully.
Chang Laohan also saw the gray cat wrapped around Xilin's arm, and Chang Laohan also sighed. It was not easy to have such a faithful pet, but unfortunately, by the time they found this person, the gray cat was already stiff. Compared to being dead for a while.
If the gray cat knew what Chang Lao Han thought, he would definitely blow up.
The style of protective clothing worn by Xilin has never been seen by the old man. Maybe it's not from their planet, but Chang Laohan is someone who has done space maintenance work after all. I also have a good impression of Xilin, and I pity Xilin's age even more, such a young man has taken on such a dangerous job, if he hadn't met them or his protective clothing was torn, he would have died.
Xilin's protective clothing was only scratched after Chang Laohan rescued Xilin, otherwise he would not have been able to rescue Xilin at all, and he would not even be able to feed the pills.
Hearing his grandson say that this person seemed to be a little stupid, but Chang Laohan felt that this young man couldn't understand them. After thinking about it, Chang Laohan changed his language and spoke the language of the imperial capital with a strong and somewhat lame speech, which was also the lingua franca of the empire.
"Can you understand?"
Xilin really understood this. At the same time, Cillin was also shocked in his heart, this was very similar to the language given to him by Yuan Ye when he was a child, Yuan Ye said that it was the language of his hometown, but Xi Lin had not found such a language in the Star Alliance. I didn't expect to be able to hear it here now.
"Yes, I understand this." Cillin tried to say something.
Hearing Xilin's words, the old man's eyes lit up, "It turned out to be someone from the Imperial Capital Star Domain!" ”
Xilin scratched his head, looking embarrassed, in fact, he didn't know that the "Imperial Capital Star Domain" was Mao's meaning.
Seeing that Xilin did not deny it, Chang Laohan classified Xilin as a young man who grew up in the Imperial Capital Star Domain but had poor family conditions and only came out to perform dangerous work for some reason.
Generally, people in the Imperial Capital Star Domain will pronounce such a standard, and there are few people with standard pronunciation in other Star Domains, this is difficult to pretend, at least Chang Laohan has not heard anyone on this planet speak such a standard Imperial Capital for so many years, except for the videos in the media.
"You're a mechanical engineer, aren't you?"
"Sort of."
Chang Laohan looked at Xilin with pity, it was not easy to make a living in the imperial capital, and since he came to their small place, he must have been forced to be helpless. Alas, poor child.
Xilin maintained the most obvious smile, but seeing Chang Laohan's expression of seven points of pity and three points of love, the corners of Xilin's mouth twitched and twitched.
"My surname is Chang, you can call me Grandpa Chang like the kids around you." Chang Laohan handed Xilin a glass of water and a few pills and said.
Xilin took the pill and immediately took the medicine, and thanked Chang Laohan.
Chang Laohan smiled very happily when he saw Xilin taking medicine so simply, if other people were to study the medicine with suspicion for a long time.
Chang Laohan didn't know that when Xilin took the pill, he immediately analyzed the ingredients of the pill, which were all basic tonics, so he ate so crisply. I don't know if Chang Laohan will break the old man's heart if he knows the truth.
"My name is Cillin." Xilin didn't say much, just said that he was a person.
Chang Laohan chatted with Xilin, and Xilin simply knew the situation of the family.
The three little beans that Xilin saw were five-year-old triplets, ranked sixth, seventh, and eighth respectively.
The situation here is very bad, the survival rate of small children in a family is too low, so every family will save a lot of children. Because of the high mortality rate, people here generally do not take official names directly, knowing that they will grow up to be adults or under certain special circumstances.
The elder Han's wife went early, and finally had a capable son but left them because of an accident, and the daughter-in-law has been trying hard to give birth to a child, and after the son left, the daughter-in-law also became thinner and thinner, and followed after giving birth to triplets. Leaving Chang Lao Han and six children behind.
Why six children? Neither the eldest nor the second survived.
However, the eleven-year-old twins Chang Xiaosan and Chang Xiaosi were very angry, were admitted to a good school, and left the area to study.
As for Chang Xiaowu, due to the setbacks he has experienced since he was in his mother's womb, he is not in good physical condition from birth, he is often sick, and he is a poor child who grew up taking medicine.
Chang Laohan now earns a little basic living expenses every day in his small repair shop to support himself and his children. In this area of the planet, there are dense families similar to Chang Laohan's family, opening a small repair shop in their own homes to support their families. To be continued.
