Marriage [Interstellar]

Going out in the scooter, Lou Qing found that there were many more people in the palace today.

Many of these people are wearing standard clothes, but they are not as neat as the guards. Most of them take off their coats, put them on their shoulders, or tie them around their waists. There are mud stains on their boots, trouser legs, and even their clothes, but their hands and faces They are all clean, they should have been cleaned before entering the palace.

Wei Leqian sat across from Lou Qing, raising her hand to say hello to passers-by from time to time.Introduce to Lou Qing when you are free.

"These people belong to the hunting team and are responsible for collecting white crystals in the wild on a regular basis. However, the hunting team has a huge system, responsible for formal collection, harvesting and processing, and maintenance of the private white crystal market... Deyuanka belongs A special military system."

Lou Qing was very surprised when he heard the last sentence, and also wondered: "Military system? It's only related to white crystals. It shouldn't be an industrial system such as minerals. Military supervision is fine, right?"

Wei Lexi: "Do you know where the white crystal comes from?"

Lou Qing was stunned, and recalled the explanation he saw on the Internet: "It is said that insects and beasts feed on white crystals, and white crystal mines can often be found in places where they often haunt."

Wei Leqian laughed: "It's all made up on the Internet, but it's not much different - there is no mine, only insects and beasts. You will know when you get to the fire."

Lou Qing was too curious, but when the car drove into the scene of the fire, he was shocked.

The fire place doesn't sound like an auspicious name, but when I walked in, I realized that it wasn't an auspicious place either.

The whole field was as big as two football fields, and there was a huge pit in the middle. In the pit, and even on the surrounding stone slabs, it was scorched black—the color left by years of burning by flames.

This is also the origin of the name of the fire site.

At this time, five large trucks were parked around the big pit, and many people from the hunting team were unloading from the trucks - insects and beasts.

This is the first time Lou Qing has seen a worm beast. Unlike a space worm beast, a worm beast is a product of a thorn worm parasitizing a wild beast.

The forms of the parasitized beasts didn't have much variation, but they were obviously different, but the most unusual thing was that a stack of white crystals grew on their backs.

"It's not that there are white crystals wherever there are insects and beasts, but insects and beasts are the source of white crystals."

Wei Leqian got out of the car, frowned and slapped her nose a few times, then looked back at Lou Qing and continued: "When the white crystal has not grown a back, most of the insects can still maintain their own living habits, but once they grow up like this , it will attack indiscriminately, and the destructive power is astonishing.

Therefore, the hunting team will go out regularly to hunt down insects and beasts and harvest white crystals. "

After speaking, Wei Leqian beckoned to a cleaning robot, and took out a few ear-mounted purifiers from inside, "Put it on. You will be required to wear it after the harvest starts."

Lou Qing took the purifier and put it on his ear, put it on for his younger brother, and opened it smoothly—most of these insects and beasts were wounded, and the smell of blood was very strong.

After the purifier is turned on, an arc-shaped transparent protective cover will be formed at the front four centimeters of the face to filter and purify.

The younger brother looked at the thing unfolded in front of him, and was a little curious, so he reached out and touched it.Fingers can go through, but there will be a noticeable resistance, and the purifier will sound an alarm.

Lou Qing smiled and pulled his younger brother's hand off, and said, "This is a protective cover for my younger brother, so don't do it. Is my younger brother afraid of seeing this?"

The younger brother glanced at the corpses of insects and beasts that Lou Qing was pointing at, tilted his head and thought for a while, then stretched out his little finger, turned his head and looked at Lou Qing expectantly.

Are you going to play?

Lou Qing understood it, but felt relieved and helpless: "You are quite bold. But you can't play."

The younger brother blinked, retracted his hand with some regret, and obediently leaned into Lou Qing's arms.

It doesn't matter if you don't play, as long as he leans here.

Lou Qing smiled and ran along his younger brother's back, and then went to look at the corpses of those insects and beasts.

The original species of these insects and beasts can be seen, such as bears, bison, monkeys, eagles, etc., but their sizes are a circle or two larger than the normal size of the same kind. Not only do white crystals grow on their backs, Some also popped up on the limbs and head.

Like insects parasitized by fungi.

Lou Qing asked: "If they are not hunted, what will happen to them in the end?"

Wei Lexi led him around to the other side of the big pit, without turning her head, she said, "Remember that white crystal just now? It's just that they don't need external force to pinch them, and they will be broken by themselves, and then turn into ashes and disappear."

Lou Qing was startled, and suddenly asked: "What about the parasitized person?"

Willis: "Yes. But very rarely.—Have you ever heard of acanthus infestation?"

Lou Qing shook his head: "I haven't had time to watch it yet."

Wei Leqian: "Acanthus has two forms in the parasitic stage, the first-level sporozoite and the second-level brown beetle. Most of the first-level infections can be digested, resulting in immunity or slight alienation, or they will die; second-level infections are more serious. Most of them will be alienated and develop some characteristics that do not belong to humans."

Lou Qing immediately thought of Yan Yu's tail, "Is it the same for Yan Yu?"

Wei Leqian: "No, as far as I know, your majesty is not a secondary infection, but I don't know the specifics. ——Following what I just said, the secondary infection can be treated, but if it is not treated and allowed to develop, it will eventually Beasts turned into worms. Moreover, worms transformed from humans are more difficult to deal with than ordinary worms, and they like to attack people. They are very dangerous and troublesome existences.”

As Wei Lexi was speaking, she suddenly stopped and cursed, "I'm a crow's mouth."

Lou Qing asked with a question mark: "What's wrong?"

Wei Leqian turned her head and turned her head to him, motioning for him to come forward.

Lou Qing bypassed the truck in front, and then saw Yan Yu standing not far away.

There was a group of people beside Yan Yu, they were discussing something around a huge insect corpse.

Lou Qing's attention was all on Yan Yu, seeing Yan Yu wanting to move forward, and then hearing Wei Leqian suddenly say: "Well, that's the worm and beast alienated from human beings."

Lou Qing was startled, then stopped and glanced at the huge monster in front of Yan Yu and the others.

It was lying on its side facing Lou Qing.

It is about four meters long, covered with moss-like moss-colored light hair; its forelimb bones are specialized, and skin membranes are connected between the palms, fingers, and body, forming a bat-like wing membrane structure; but its body is unique. Much like an ape.

Lou Qing opened his mouth and asked Wei Leqian: "Is that really alienated?"

Wei Lexi nodded: "Insects and beasts alienated from other animals will grow white crystals and change their body shape, but their body structure will generally not change. Only humans can alienate into various shapes.

So if you see things that appear in myths, novels, movies and other works of art in the future, [-]% of them are alienated by human beings. "

Wei Leqian was a little reluctant to go there, but she looked at the big obedient rabbit in Lou Qing's arms, and held back again.

"Let's go and see what's going on."

Lou Qing and the others had just walked halfway, when Yan Yu turned around and looked over.

Lou Qing quickened his pace.

"His Majesty."

Yan Yu turned around and looked at Lou Qing, "You are here... what is that?"

Lou Qing followed Yan Yu's gaze and looked into his arms, the little brother Big Rabbit obediently lay on his shoulders, only showing the back of a three-headed body.

Lou Qing patted his younger brother on the back, and turned his face to show Yan Yu.

"It's my brother, isn't he cute?"

Yan Yu: "..."

The insider beside Yan Yu: "..."

Lu Yiyang didn't hold back, tilted his head and asked his cousin in a low voice: "Is this the clothes you sent over?"

Because only Bai Jiuzhang has experience in raising children among the group of people, it would be Bai Jiuzhang who asked someone he knew to purchase supplies for his younger brother.

Bai Jiuzhang also had a hard-to-speak expression on his face, and argued, "Maybe they thought it was for Xiaodouzi."

Lou Qing heard their conversation and wondered: "What's wrong with the clothes? Isn't it cute?"

Lu Yiyang & Bai Jiuzhang: "..."

The problem is that it's too cute.

Lu Yiyang looked away, pretending he didn't hear Lou Qing's question.

Bai Jiuzhang showed an awkward yet polite smile.

"Nothing, just the right size."

Lou Qing felt that these two people were a little strange, but he didn't pursue it. He raised his head and smiled at Yan Yu: "Your Majesty also came to see the white crystal harvest?"

Yan Yu looked away from his younger brother's brand new body, and replied: "No, there are some problems that need to be resolved. ——Go over there, the harvest is about to begin."

"okay."

Lou Qing nodded, hugged her younger brother and trotted after Yan Yu.

Others followed suit.

There are stadium-like stands built around the fire site, not many, but they can accommodate hundreds of people.

The stand is not short, the first step is higher than Lou Qing's knee height, and it takes some effort to step on it.

When he came to the front, Yan Yu wanted to bend down to help Lou Qing go up, but he didn't expect that as soon as he moved, he saw Lou Qing step on it by himself, and then jumped up with a whoosh.

Yan Yu: "..."

Yan Yu silently stood up straight again, then glanced at Lou Qing, and asked, "Aren't you tired?"

Lou Qing stood still, Yan Yu felt more relaxed at this height, and said with a smile, "I'm not tired."

Yan Yu was silent for a few seconds, and then reminded: "If you are tired, you can put him down - you were tired after walking on the island yesterday, don't force yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the younger brother in Lou Qing's arms immediately raised his head and looked at Yan Yu coldly.

Yan Yu had long been used to the companion's hostility, so he accepted it without pain.

Lou Qing didn't notice this small confrontation, and he suddenly realized after listening to Yan Yu's words, "Oh, yes, I didn't feel tired today. It seems that my physical fitness is still good."

"........."

Yan Yu hesitated to speak, and finally chose to nod: "Well, we still have to keep exercising."

Lou Qing: "I will."

After finishing speaking, Lou Qing lowered his head and turned on the audio-visual mode of the smartphone, and brought up a cartoon and put it in front of his brother.

"Brother, watch this for a while, and we'll go back after we're done."

The younger brother has no interest in cartoons, but he always listens to what Lou Qing says.

The younger brother nodded, and obediently asked Lou Qing to position the virtual headset for him to isolate the sound from the outside world.

Lou Qing looked curiously at the center of the fire scene after finishing these, so he didn't see it. The younger brother, who was still watching cartoons seriously, suddenly looked up at Yan Yu.

Then, under Yan Yu's watchful eyes, the younger brother put his short hand around Lou Qing's neck, put his face on Lou Qing's shoulder, and then slowly showed his two rows of shark teeth to Yan Yu, Laugh like a villain.

Yan Yu: "..."

The author has something to say: Yan Yu: The companion is not the spiritual reflection of the master, no, absolutely not.
