Chapter Seventy-Six: The Informal Carnival

As soon as I arrived in the square, a strong sense of déjà vu came to my face.

"This campfire, and the guitar ensemble over there, all have a strong old-fashioned western cowboy flavor."

When he saw Jige sitting in a pile of musical instruments, still holding a shiny guitar in his hand, Li Ji was relieved.

This must have been the old cowboy's doing.

With Li Ji's entrance, a large pot of food was served.

Unlike the synthetic foods that can be found everywhere in Night City, today's meals are the latest products from the Food Lab.

With Li Ji's borrowing of the most cutting-edge wisdom of the times, as well as the support of Xiaosha's powerful computing power, and the work of mechanical soldiers day and night, the new type of food has been quite fruitful.

Unlike the synthetic protein farms outside Night City, the real chicken and pork were served to the table tonight.

With the powerful effect of gene editing, the food laboratory has optimized various undesirable genes and successfully bred animals that can live normally in the current environment.

For this reason, Li Ji deliberately arranged two large spaces in the original underground space.

One of the pieces is dedicated to raising animals.

Of course, in less than a month, the chickens are of normal size, and the pigs can only eat suckling pigs.

As for the other piece of land......

Li Ji added the rice-like food in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion.

"It's not a familiar taste in my memory, but it's close."

That's right, Li Ji has also successfully cultivated rice-like rice that can resist micro-radiation in the laboratory.

This is made by crossing corn and rice, so the fruit is more like corn, and if you peel off the layers of corn husks, you can get the fruit one by one.

The disadvantage is that the head is relatively small, and the advantage is that it can be planted on barren land.

In order for the first batch of food to ripen as soon as possible, Li Ji also spent a lot of resources to give birth to it, and it is the first batch that he eats now.

"What a debt of wisdom from countless human scientists!"

Li Ji sighed, remembering that in the collective unconscious of human beings, as soon as the idea of "hunger" first emerged, the will of countless scientists flocked to him......

In emotion, Li Ji looked at the side of the bonfire, which seemed to be about to become Jige's solo concert.

The residents of Taiping Prefecture nearby watched the excitement, and they all gathered near the square in twos and threes, preparing a small stool with their hands and watching it attentively.

There are also small traders who smell the business opportunity and push small carts to sell snacks.

Li Ji keenly saw a flash of three fingers in the shouting of the vendors.

"This kid ......"

In order to avoid safety problems, Li Ji also specially arranged for nearly 100 mechanical soldiers to patrol.

It's been a few months since I came to this world, from a toilet bowl at the beginning, to more than a hundred Spark team members, six or seven hundred mechanical soldiers, and powerful AI assistants, such a large piece of land that can be used at its disposal.

Among them, the number of Starfire team members and mechanical warriors is increasing every day, and if you add the nearly 2,000 people who are mining......

Plus a large number of weapons and ammunition, all kinds of secret weapons, all kinds of missiles and devices under development......

Unconsciously, Li Ji's subordinates had gathered such a huge force.

If he stops now, he will at least be able to become a master in this life.

"It's just that since I've come to such a world, I always feel sorry for myself if I don't do something!"

The firelight reflected the smiling faces of the crowd, and Li Ji was a little emotional.

"You can't always let Jig sing alone! What about other people's shows? ”

When he was eating, Li Ji said with a smile.

Seeing this, Three-Fingers led a group of Spark players to a tap dance, winning bursts of applause.

Li Ji groped for a long time, and one person awarded a prize of 3,000 for your life, and they were happily accepted by the three fingers.

When Giger saw this, he didn't say a word, and led his old brother to the stage, each with a guitar.

In the hoarse and vicissitudes of voice, he finally received bursts of applause.

There are even good people who are yelling for another one.

Seeing this, Li Ji also rewarded each of them with a grenade.

In the midst of laughter, Li Ji saw the envy in Dorio's eyes, and encouraged Mann: "Why, why don't you go down for a while?" ”

Mann grinned, took Dorio's hand and jumped into the middle of the field.

They whispered to Jig for a while, and the other made an OK gesture.

Men then smiled and took Dolio's hand and made a dance gesture.

Melodious and romantic jazz music sounded, and Dolio's cheeks flushed slightly.

It was her first time dancing in front of a large audience.

"I can't see it, this big guy can dance such a bewitching dance!"

After the three-fingered work, he watched Mann's dancing and muttered.

"yes!" Li Ji also agreed.

Dancing over the bonfire resonates the most, and as the music gets better, more and more people can't bear the loneliness and pull up their companions to dance in the square.

Jig and the others also saw that there were more people, and they also worked harder, and the music began to move from romantic jazz to passionate rock.

The crowd erupted in cheers, showing off their dancing to their heart's content.

"This scene, if only the silver hand was here, after rescuing that kid in the future, I have to do it again!"

Li Ji was also infected by the atmosphere in the square, and said silently in his heart.

There are also many elderly people in the crowd of onlookers, who secretly wipe their tears while eating and watching the show.

A young man next to him stabbed him, "Uncle, why are you still crying?" ”

"Fart!" The old man's face turned red. "Lao Tzu, this is happy! Glad you get the idea! ”

After saying this, the old man turned around and left the young man with the back of his head.

Where people couldn't see, the uncle carefully wiped his tears with his mechanical hand.

"How many years, I haven't seen such a scene for at least fifty or sixty years!"

The music gradually came to an end, and I don't know what Gig thought, but it turned from passionate rock to more and more lyrical music.

When the last note sounds, Dorio spins in mid-air and is successfully caught in Mann's arms.

The two looked at each other affectionately, and everyone also took the opportunity to coax.

"Kiss one! Kiss one! ”

Mann grinned, pecked Dorio lightly on the lips, and was kicked out by her, smiling silly.

In the corner, Leah was also silently eating, and when she saw Mann being kicked out, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile.

"It would be nice if David was there."

Soon, the night was deep.

The people in the square had already eaten and drunk enough, and dispersed in twos and threes.

The mechanical warriors are still here, cleaning up the traces of the crowd's revelry.

"I want to thank you, Xiaosha, if it weren't for you, I don't know how long it would have taken to get to where I am today."

“……?”

Li Ji smiled, didn't say anything more, and left with everyone.

"Let's rest early, there is a tough battle to fight tomorrow."
