Xilin looked at the other party, the young man in front of him was obviously only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he showed a maturity beyond his age, a little like the vicissitudes of this city, but the good thing was that he didn't feel malice. 78 No pop-up window Fast update //

"Yes, we're looking for a place to stay, do you have any recommendations?"

The young man looked at them, raised his gloved hand, and held up a finger: "One hundred a day, galaxy coins, if you agree, I will take you to see the house." ”

"Okay." Cillin nodded. This offer is reasonable compared to those houses in the center of the city.

The boy pointed to the old faded cloth seat in the back, which had only one driver's seat, and said, "Come on." ”

These two old flying cars look tattered and fly...... It's also scary. I can't wait to shake out the few things left in my stomach, and it feels like it will be messy with the wind at any time.

When she arrived at her destination, the sugar ball ball was carried out by Xilin, and she was in a trance, and she couldn't find a sense of balance in a short time. Sirin wasn't that serious, and the gray cat on his shoulder looked at the broken car with even more contempt, which confirmed its opinion - this was a pile of rags.

The place that the boy said was his house, located on the edge of Windy City, a small two-story house made of rocks, looking at the stones, it probably didn't take too long, it should have been built in the past five years. There is a small courtyard, and in the corner of the yard there are some old parts from the flying car, which are covered with a cover to prevent them from being blown away by the wind.

After parking the car in the yard, the boy came out and pointed to the second floor of the house: "You can go and have a look first." If it's okay, just pay the rent and sign an agreement. ”

Cillin nodded. Walking towards the second floor with the candy ball on his back, there was a separate staircase in the yard leading to the second floor, and the gray cat had already jumped on the steps in advance and scurried into the house.

There wasn't a lot of space in the house. But the layout is clear, the one-bedroom and the living room also have a simple bathroom, and the bed in the bedroom can be split into two small beds.

Cillin first let Sugar Ball lie on the bed to rest. The gray cat has finished patrolling the territory, and by the way, he has made a compliment in the simple bathroom, squatting on the edge of the window energetically to look at the wind and sand in the distance, with a deep face.

In the courtyard, a woman in a headscarf stood next to the boy, who was supposed to be the boy's mother. With a wet towel in his hand, he wiped the boy's face.

Seeing Xilin coming down, the young man asked, "How is it?" ”

"Okay."

Hearing Cillin's words, the woman's eyes lit up with joy.

The young man gave the agreement that had already been prepared to Xilin, and Xilin looked at it and felt that there was no problem. The two parties signed the agreement.

Xilin paid the rent for five days directly, and then paid it if he continued to live in the future. In addition, the water bill is also calculated separately, according to the volume.

Night had fallen, and Sirin and Sugar Ball had simply eaten something and then lay down to rest. Sugar Ball Ball soon fell asleep, and Cillin listened to the whining of the wind outside with a high and low pitch, and finally realized what the devilish sound of the Windy City was called.

Suddenly, the gray cat's ears twitched. Rubbing and jumping up, his eyes flashing with a ghostly light: "Xilin." Something has come out of the desert, I'm going to forage for food! ”

"Go ahead. Don't make too much of a fuss. ”

"Yes!" The gray cat couldn't wait to jump up and press the door lock and rush out.

When the door closed automatically, Cillin opened his eyes and sighed. This place is more polarized than brown Saturn. There is a world of difference between the luxury of the central city and the oldness of the residential area.

Although the wind and sand outside were very strong, Xilin's sleep at night was not bad, but in the middle of the night, Xilin heard the sudden movement in the courtyard, and it was not so abrupt mixed with the chaotic wind.

When it was almost dawn, the gray cat returned, with a satisfied face, and brought back a two-meter-long snake to enrich the recipe for Xilin and Sugar Ball.

"By the way, I've seen that kid in the sandstone area," said the gray cat as he licked his paws while lying on the bed, "and it's still that broken car, driving there and upside down, and not afraid of death picking a place with a lot of stone eaves." ”

"He's practicing the car, he's a speeder."

Previously, Cillin had noticed that the young man's arms and wrists were very strong, and his physical fitness was quite good. At the same time, the teenager was not as frizzy as other peers, and when he met Xilin at that time, with a calm scrutiny, he should be analyzing whether a person like Xilin would be a good tenant.

You know, at high speeds, under the action of air pressure, it is quite laborious to control the rudder, especially when cornering, it is necessary to have strong arms to maintain the speed car on the route that the driver wants, so in the long distance race, strong arms and wrists are a must.

In a speeding race, the strong lateral centrifugal force of the corner will cause the blood to flow to one side of the driver's body, but at this time, the driver still needs to think calmly to face the next corner and the danger that may arise. In addition, the difference between the heartbeat at the start and during the race is relatively large, so the cardiopulmonary function of the racer must be unusually strong.

Not only that, but physical patience is also important for speeders. In the race, even the shortest race, is more than 10 hours, but after more than 10 hours of competition, the total body fat consumption and dehydration will exceed 10 kilograms, they need to replenish water, but also take into account the surrounding dangers, a large amount of dehydration can cause shock, and once the consciousness is lapsed, it can be devastating for the driver.

In addition, although there is a thermostat in the cockpit, but there will inevitably be damage during the race, if the thermostat fails, the temperature in the cockpit will rise, more than 20 degrees higher than the body temperature, so there is no good endurance and endurance but there will be accidents, therefore, the driver's physical fitness is a guarantee for them.

The gray cat didn't look closely at the young man, only paid attention to the broken car, and said disdainfully, "Just that broken car and flying driver?" ”

Xilin patted the gray cat's head, "Hurry up and sleep, it will be dawn later!" ”

Two days before coming to the Windy City. Sirin and Sugar Ball didn't go too far, just walked around Wintor, Windy City, because the Windy City car race was still three days away, and the car race in other areas was too far. Sugar Ball doesn't want to go too far, and besides, no matter which region the car race is actually the same, then watch the car race in Windy City first.

After staying here for two days, Xilin also got to know the landlord a little.

The boy's name was Udoze. Wenz, Wenz is his last name, and in general, in the Covenant, some large families with compound names like to put the last name first. to show respect for the family. So, on the other hand, like Udoze, you don't need to see people. As long as they see this name, many people will classify him as a civilian.

"Udoze" means "chasing" in the star language of the F sector, and it seems that Udo likes his name very much, and I heard that Mrs. Wentz once wanted to change his name, but he refused.

Mr. Wentz died at a very young age in Udoze. As long as it was because of physical reasons, Mr. Wentz was often sick from birth, so in order to let Mr. Wenz leave offspring. When Mr. Wentz was sixteen years old, Mr. Wentz's parents let him marry Mrs. Wentz, who was ten years older than him. That is, the woman that Xilin had seen in the courtyard.

However, after the death of Mr. Wentz. His brother had kicked Mrs. Wentz and Udo, who was only two years old at the time, out of the city, and the widow and orphan lived on the edge of the city.

I forgot to mention that the Wentz family has a relatively large flying car model shop in the heart of Wenz, Windy City, which was later acquired by outsiders, and the name of the store has been changed, but now it is getting better and better, and the rest of the Wentz family also has a considerable income. In contrast, Udo and Mrs. Wentz were much more miserable.

Udo works in the Windy City Wenz's convoy, earning a small income, but he is able to support the mother and son, in addition to collecting rent. In the past, this house was not like this, it was basically sand, but later Udo made some money from the convoy and demolished the sand and stone house and rebuilt it.

Because Udo spends most of his time on the road, if the house is rented, he doesn't worry about his mother being home alone, after all, not all the tenants who come here are easy to get along with. Therefore, every time it is Udo who personally looks for tenants, looking for the kind of person who seems to be easy to get along with and has a relatively high reputation, and if he can't find a suitable one, he would rather not rent out.

Mrs. Wentz had no other job than to take care of the tenants, do the laundry, etc., and then make some handmade goods in her spare time and sell them for a small amount of money, after all, in the era of high-tech domination, handmade goods were too cheap.

A machine makes things more accurate and beautiful, and it takes less time and is less costly and inefficient, but handmade products are better than creativity, as long as the producer has a good idea and a good idea, the things made are still bought, although they are not sold at an ideal price, but they can also fill the needs of life.

This was not said by Udoze and Mrs. Wentz, but by the surrounding residents. They are mostly surrounded by people who live on rent, and when they are not racing, they spend most of the day chatting. So for them, Xilin and Sugar Ball, who had just moved into Udoze's house, were their best people to talk to.

Night.

Sugar Ball Ball lay on the bed and looked at the introduction of the team, "Brother Xilin, which team is Udo?" ”

"The last time the guy on the street corner said he was in the 'Hurricane' convoy."

"Wind......" Sugar Ball looked for the information, "Oh, it's not bad, the planet is ranked fourth!" ”

"Alright, read less books at night and go to bed early." Cillin tapped Candyball's head.

"Okay, I know, watch it for five more minutes, no, watch it for another fifteen minutes and go to sleep."

Cillin shook his head with a smile and looked out the dark window, not knowing what he was thinking.

The gray cat went out to forage again, this guy has been very moist in the past two days, in addition to foraging richly, mainly, in the city saw a few high-level pets that were trained to talk, although they also saw high-level pets raised by rich people when they were in Orok, but they didn't expect that there would be high-level pets in this place, so it can be seen that this is indeed a place for rich people to have fun.

Since seeing those high-level pets that can talk, the gray cat has become much more relaxed, and will say a few words on the road from time to time, enjoying the attention of passers-by. At the same time, the few high-level pets who can speak still have a thick accent in the language of the Star Alliance, and in this regard, the gray cat has sublimated itself.

After Candyball falls asleep, Cillin turns off the energy storage lamp. Lying on the bed with his eyes closed, but not asleep.

In the middle of the night, the courtyard remembered the sound of sudden noises again.

Udo was in the cockpit, preparing for takeoff. But when he heard the sound of knocking, he turned his head to look, and he was so startled that he almost jumped. At some point, Cillin was standing next to the dilapidated speeding car, clasping the lid on.

Gesturing, Sirin motioned for Udo to open the car cover.

Although reluctant, after all, he is a tenant and a provider of rent, and it seems that Xilin and Sugar Ball are not bad people in the past two days. So Udo still opened the lid of the car and let Sillin in and sit in the back seat.

"I can't sleep, I just want to go out for a walk, I know you're practicing. But don't mind taking a ride, right? Cillin wasn't embarrassed.

You're all sitting in, mind if it's useful?

"Okay, as long as you can hold it!" Udo gritted his teeth.

In the dark of night, Udo didn't even have a driving light. But he drove the old broken car out of the yard very familiarly, leaving Windy City Wento and entering the no-man's land outside.

The old broken car was still bumpy, and Udo was intentional. It was so upset that he almost threw people out, but Udo noticed. People in the back seat, not wearing seat belts. But he still sat there steadily, his eyes closed as if he were asleep.

Udo was surprised, what kind of freak is this guy?

Shaking his head, Udo didn't pay attention to Xilin, and officially entered his training time.

Dunes, stone eaves, narrow passages...... The old broken car can always pass through these places smoothly in a bumpy state, and the speed is not slow, of course, it is impossible to reach the speed of the wind of the racing car, after all, this old broken car uses a storage battery.

In this area, solar and wind energy are the main energy sources, which are converted into stored energy and stored in energy storage batteries to provide other power supplies, such as energy storage lamps, certain household appliances, and flying cars.

Obviously, the effect of the battery is far less than the effect of the energy block, but the energy block is a luxury here, and only the team's race car uses the energy block, and people with conditions like Udo can't afford to use the energy block at all, so they can only rely on the energy storage battery to drive the flying car.

Despite the use of a battery, Udo is driving the old wrecked car much faster than other battery-powered cars, as he makes the most of the wind and is at ease in these challenging and dangerous places.

Udo's whole person is like a flying car, and he doesn't need to rely too much on the airflow balancer, he can judge the next move just by the subtle effects of the airflow on the body.

This person is like he was born to live in the wind, and he is flying freely.

In no-man's land, people are afraid of the wind and avoid it. Udo, on the other hand, felt unusually intimate, and he could feel the motivation that the wind brought him.

The winds seem to tell him: you can go faster, do better, faster, faster......

At this moment, Udo forgot about Xilin in the back seat of the car, and was completely immersed in the world of himself, the speeding car and the wind.

As he crossed a corner, Udo skillfully maneuvered the bodywork, using the air flow around the corner and the howling wind to allow him to complete the corner more perfectly, but ...... He didn't take into account the Cillin in the back seat of the car.

One more person adds an extra weight, a factor that he can't control here. So when he followed the control he had done thousands of times before, he suddenly discovered his negligence, and the rock protruding from the side of the mountain rock was getting closer and closer to the body.

However, Udo reacted quickly, adjusting the control wheel at a faster hand speed, turning the rudder, and then leaning his body at an angle to match the movement of the body. This series of actions was only completed in an extreme amount of time, and the body almost brushed the edge of that rock.

After passing the corner, Udo did not continue to drive in the narrow tube, but drove the car out of the narrow tube, landed behind the big rock mountain, and popped out the gratus to hold the big rock mountain tightly to prevent the flying car from being blown away by the wind.

When the car stopped, Udo lay on the rudder and gasped.

"Yo, I made a mistake." Cillin opened his eyes and said.

"Shut up, if you weren't in the car, how would I be in this situation?!" Udo roared, his forehead was full of sweat, and cold sweat was on his back, it was indeed too thrilling just now, beyond his expectations, but fortunately, it was still under control, otherwise, the two of them would have died here today.

"You can't blame others for the fault caused by your own negligence, after all, I knew it before you got in the car, but you forgot it at that time, but habitually follow the operation you used to operate and control with inertial thinking, this is your own fault, it is undeniable."

Udo didn't speak again, he also knew where his mistakes were, and indeed, it was a lesson. Too confident, so confident that they ignore the crucial factors.

"But the operation just now is very good, at least you didn't panic, if your reaction time is 0.1 seconds late, then we will only have to make contact with the rock fire."

Udo suddenly realized that the person sitting in the back seat was too calm, calm as a bystander.

"You're a speeder too?" Udo asked in a deep voice.

You know, in the Windy City, there are a lot of taboos among the drivers, and the competitors don't like to be noticed for their handling habits, which is not good for themselves.

"No, I spend more time flying fighter planes than flying cars." Cillin said. In the sixth team, the fighter plane piloting of the fighters is a compulsory course, and they can't even drive the fighters, so they still fight a yarn.

Hearing the fighter, Udo's eyes lit up, but then it darkened.

"Want to fly a fighter?" Cillin asked.

"It's a lie to say I don't want to, but that's too vague." Udo buried his head in the crook of his arm and said sullenly, "Do you know what my job is? ”

"All I know is that you work in the team."

"Hehe, work ......" Udo smiled self-deprecatingly, "You know, in the team, there is a kind of person called a stand-in. (To be continued.) )
