Soul Mechanic [Interstellar]

【Catch a space-time beast alive】

The Milky Way has overturned the sky, and the Tianlong, which originally planned to leave immediately, has also delayed its journey.

On Huangxing's side, Mu Qiu and his new friend Lan are living a happy life.

The boy injured by the flame beast was finally rescued, but the whole process was really thrilling.

Seeing the young man's almost bitten lips, Mu Qiu was both shocked and admired in his heart, and asked himself, if it was changed to this, he might not have such patience.

At this time, while cooking root vegetables, Lan asked Mu Qiu about the common sense of starry sky beasts.

"Star beasts are ferocious beasts that can wander among the stars. They have various individuals and powerful abilities. Some have gentle tempers, some are violent by nature, some have high IQs, almost equivalent to intelligent life, and some are just pure beasts. Only the nature of killing.

"Most star beasts are conceived by mothers and live alone after birth; only a small number of very powerful individuals are derived from the interstellar space due to various coincidences. They, no, it should be said that they are unrivaled kings once they appear.

"The above two kinds of whereabouts are erratic, wandering among the stars all their lives, and some lower species will choose to settle on the human planet. In this way, both parties will become competitors for resources and each other's prey.

"Actually, the long-term sedentary life has made them lose their ability to resist cosmic rays, magnetic storms, and the influence of gravity. They are no longer 'star beasts' in the true sense, but this name has continued."

"Does the flame beast belong to the third type?" Mu Qiu asked.

Lan nodded, "There are mainly two kinds of starry beasts in star 1849, one is the flame beast, which can emit hot flames from the forehead, and the flames of an adult flame beast can even burn a third-level spaceship in an instant; It is a sand beast, which has the ability to control quicksand and can make the soil fertile. The flame beast has a tyrannical personality and often hurts humans. The sand beast is gentle and vegetarian, and is a good helper in the vegetable garden."

Mu Qiu raised his eyebrows, thinking of earthworms.

Lan turned the spoon upside down, extended the long handle into the pot, and poked the root vegetables one by one.

While poking, he frowned and complained, "Oh, the root vegetables are delicious, but they are too difficult to cook. After cooking for so long, they are still hard."

On the side, Dabai also frowned, but his eyes with smoky makeup looked at Lan's wet hands.

It stretched out its chubby paws, and without saying a word, put Lan's hand, which was red from the steam, on his chubby belly.

Lan was pulled sideways by it, grinning while struggling, "It's okay, Dabai, it's not hot."

Mu Qiu suddenly remembered Chu Qingtian, every time he took a biscuit from the oven with his bare hands, he would be stopped by that person, and then the other party's big hand covered with thin calluses would take his place.

This kind of scene is often not noticed at ordinary times, but once it is thought of, it will make people's eyes turn red unconsciously.

"Huh? What's wrong with Qiuqiu?" Lan leaned over and asked worriedly.

Mu Qiu sniffed, with a smile on his face, "It's okay, it's just... homesick."

Lan showed an expression of "as expected", "Don't worry, we go out every day to inquire, look for clues, and strive to go back as soon as possible."

Mu Qiu was uncertain for a moment, "Can we really go back sooner?" After all, Lan has been here for 30 years.

Lan patted him on the shoulder and said with great certainty: "It will definitely, believe me, I have a good hunch."

At that moment, Mu Qiu really believed it.

Maybe it's because he is simply willing to believe, or maybe it's because every talented guide has a unique ability. He hopes that Lan's ability is "premonition".

-

In order to divert attention, Mu Qiu took over Lan's work - cooking.

There is only one kind of natural food on the barren star, which is both vegetables and food, and that is root vegetables.

Fortunately, they also have fresh meat.

Mu Qiu pulled out a completely unused frying pan from the half-cleared debris heap just now, cleaned it, put it on the energy plate, and heated it.

When the pot was almost hot, he took out a piece of suet the size of a palm from the fresh-keeping cabinet—this was what he had asked Dabai to keep before, and Dabai would throw it away in the past, it is said that because "baibai is soft and soft, Unappetizing".

Of course it is not delicious to cook directly, but it can be used to boil oil.

The milky white pieces of meat melted little by little in the pot, exuding a scorched smell, and one man and one beast swallowed at the same time.

Lan opened her round eyes and asked innocently: "Is this drinkable? It smells so good!"

Mu Qiu laughed out loud, and said while laughing: "If you really drink it, you won't find it fragrant - this is for cooking.

Lan didn't feel that she was being laughed at at all, but instead waited for Mu Qiu's finished product with great anticipation.

As for the root vegetables that couldn't be boiled in the pot beside him, he didn't want to bother with them at all.

Mu Qiu moved very quickly, washing, peeling, and chopping into pieces, all in one go.

Dabai followed Mu Qiu's instructions to chop meat at the side, I don't know how its fat paws did it, anyway, in the blink of an eye, a small pot of strong meat appeared in front of Mu Qiu's eyes.

Mu Qiu shook Dabai's fat paw as a reward, and the big guy shook his head with joy.

Then, Mu Qiu mixed the minced meat and root vegetables, added the sauce that was said to be eaten on the root vegetables, and stirred.

After a while, round, cute and pink balls appeared in front of one person and one beast.

Lan was amazed at the side.

Mu Qiu fished out the oil residue in the pan, poured it into a small bowl, and poured the excess oil into the temporarily prepared oil pot.

There was a thin layer left on the bottom of the pot, Mu Qiu opened the energy board again, and put the small balls in one by one.

There was a sound of "sizzling la la" from the oil pan, and the unstoppable salty smell went straight into the nose.

Lan's saliva was about to flow down, and he kept asking: "Can I eat it? It should be fine!"

If Dabai hadn't been pressing him down with all his heart, this guy might not be able to hold back anymore and would have reached out to grab it.

Mu Qiu really couldn't bear it, so he had to pick up a hotter one, blow it cool, put it near his mouth, and said like a child: "Take a bite, taste if it's done."

Lan swallowed it in one gulp, her cheeks puffed up like a little hamster, and she made a vague voice, "So ci, so ci!"

Mu Qiu smiled, picked one up and tasted it himself, the heat was still a little low.

He took some clean water, sprinkled it around the edge of the pot, and then found a crystal plate to cover it, acting as a temporary pot cover.

Lan's eyes widened, and he said anxiously: "Can't you eat it? Why do you have to cover it?"

Mu Qiu explained helplessly: "I'm not too familiar yet, so I'll be bored for a while."

Only then did Lan feel relieved a little, then stared at the pot helplessly and remained motionless.

Mu Qiu couldn't help laughing, "You look like those kids in our family."

Lan seemed to think about it for a while, and said seriously: "I'm so old, it's probably inappropriate to be your child. Otherwise, Qiuqiu, let's get married!"

When Mu Qiu heard this, she couldn't laugh or cry—it was the first time in her life that she was singled out, but she didn't expect it to be because of a pot of fried meatballs!

As if afraid that he would not agree, Lan rushed over and hugged his waist, coquettishly, "Yes, it would be great to marry me, Dabai can hunt, I can earn root vegetables, you are only responsible for doing it, how about it?"

Mu Qiu replied very carelessly: "Okay."

"Then it's settled!" Lan danced happily, "I'll call you 'Dear' from now on!"

Mu Qiu nodded helplessly, "As long as you are happy."

"whee……"

Lan was so happy that she smiled, and Mu Qiu also smiled.

Only Dabai, with a fluffy face mixed with complex emotions such as surprise, hesitation, expectation, and entanglement.

-

When two people and one beast gathered in a circle to share delicious food, a strange thing happened.

On the porcelain plate in front of Mu Qiu, the meatballs disappeared faster than the other two, obviously I didn't see Mu Qiu raising his fork!

Dabai was keenly aware of the strangeness, and a pair of bright black eyes looked straight at the pocket on Mu Qiu's chest - it was specially sewn out by him in half a night.

There was an obviously bulging small bump, and the small bump was moving up and down at this moment.

Mu Qiu raised his eyebrows, not surprised.

Just when the small drum was deflated again, Mu Qiu quickly took away the porcelain plate in front of him.

Huang Chengcheng's tentacles protruded from his pocket, elongated and thinned, and quietly reached the dining table.

However, it was empty.

The tip of the round tentacles visibly paused, and then moved to the left undaunted.

Huh?It was empty again.

Move to the right, it's still empty!

The small tentacles seemed to be in a hurry, and they moved a lot to the left with all their strength, and suddenly poked a round, hot meatball.

So, the little tentacles were happy, and skillfully formed a circle, and put the meatball back into the pocket.

Looking at the dizzy oil stains, Mu Qiu rubbed his forehead with a headache.

Lan was stunned, and the fork in his hand was hanging stiffly in mid-air——watching the meatball in the picture being snatched away by Mu Qiu's clothes, this feeling... a little horrifying.

"My dear..." Lan suppressed his voice and pointed to Mu Qiu's pocket.

Mu Qiu sighed softly, raised his hand, and pulled out a yellow and limp little guy from inside.

Suddenly, the bright light from the whole room shone into the eyes, and Jelly subconsciously closed those big golden eyes.

Even so, its tentacles are still bent forward, with a small mouth gnawing on it, and the ping-pong ball-sized balls are shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye—the overall shape is like a yellow onion with soft tentacles .

"Cough!" Mu Qiu kindly waited for it to finish eating, and then coughed as a reminder.

However, the little guy was still choked with fright, his palm-sized jelly-shaped body trembled violently, and made a "hehe" sound from his throat while trembling.

Mu Qiu stretched out his slender fingers, and tentatively poked the suspected stomach, wondering if it could help.

"Hey~" The little guy opened his eyes and looked at Mu Qiu accusingly.

Mu Qiu touched his nose, somewhat blaming himself.

As for Lan, he was already stupid there.

"It's alive?!" Lan murmured in a daze, "It looks familiar... like a time-space beast!"

"Yes, I am the greatest, invincible and most powerful time-space beast!" A shrill voice resounded in the spiritual realm of the two of them.

Mu Qiu was taken aback, and looked at Lan suspiciously, "Space-time beast? What's the difference from star-space beast?"

"It is the most special existence among the star beasts."

"It's not special, it's 'great' and 'great'!" The crisp little voice corrected not to be outdone.

Lan smiled with a good temper, "Yes, the greatest and most invincible, okay?"

The little guy just snorted and closed his mouth pretending to be calm.However, the trembling little tentacles betrayed its good mood at this time.

Mu Qiu weighed the little guy in his hand, "So, why don't you explain why I appear here?"

The little guy's originally stinky face was visibly stiff, and then quickly stiffened again, and said crisply: "Exchange!"

Mu Qiu raised his eyebrows, "In exchange for what?"

"I'll answer your question, you can exchange that with me." The soft tentacles pointed straight at the meatballs on the porcelain plate.

Lan's eyes widened, and she protected her share in her arms like a conditioned reflex.

Dabai pulled towards him without any trace.

Mu Qiu couldn't help but put his dinner plate on the spot.

The little guy visibly cheered up, subconsciously stretched out his tentacles, and was about to poke.

However, halfway through, it stopped abruptly.The little guy stared into Mu Qiu's eyes, and seriously emphasized: "It's agreed, it's an exchange, not me accepting your feeding."

Mu Qiu didn't understand, so, "Is there any difference?"

"Hmm..." The little guy faltered and couldn't speak clearly.

Lan explained in a low voice next to him: "I've heard a saying that a starry beast with wisdom will not easily recognize its master, but there are exceptions. It is said that there is a starry beast that recognizes its master in Kanter eighteen—it is said that Starry Sky The sign of a beast recognizing its master is accepting the other's food."

"I didn't accept your food! I already have a master!" The hour and space beast immediately expressed its position.

Only then did Mu Qiu nodded, and responded with a good temper: "Yes, that's what you said. Since you already have a master, I won't force it."

The little guy let out a sigh of relief.

Lan was anxious at the side, "Honey, time and space beasts are very precious!"

Mu Qiu smiled and patted the back of his hand, "There are already enough children in the family, I'm afraid it will be crowded if I have another one." What's more, this kind of thing still depends on fate, mutual consent.

However, Lan's focus is obviously not on one frequency. He clenched his fist and said seriously: "My dear, don't worry, I will work harder and move to a bigger house as soon as possible."

Dabai complained silently on the side - so you better not cheat, obviously there is a big house to live in, but now you have to work hard to earn it!

On the other side, Jelly couldn't wait, quietly stretched out its tentacles, and poked at the meatball.

Mu Qiu reacted quickly and pinched it.

Then, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Mu Qiu looked at the tentacles, which were obviously phantoms, but could still be touched with his fingers, and felt something was wrong.

Jelly also moved its tentacles in disbelief, almost suspecting that it was a fake hand that pinched her.

Someone can actually touch the powerful and great space-time beast——this is clearly not the case in the inheritance left by my mother!

"You, you are... a holy magician?!" Jelly searched out such a strange word from the vast inheritance.

Mu Qiu blinked, what the hell is that?

"You can actually touch the powerful and great space-time beast!" The little guy was still immersed in shock.

"It's probably a coincidence!" Compared with this, Mu Qiu obviously cared more about another question, "You answer first, did you bring me here?"

Mu Qiu remembered very clearly that before he fell into a coma, he clearly heard a voice yelling crisply, "Go home, let's go home..."

The big golden eyes blinked twice, and the little guy said proudly: "How is it? Isn't it amazing? It's here all at once!"

"Then can you take me back?" Mu Qiu asked eagerly.

"No way, I've run out of energy!" The little guy said as a matter of course.

Mu Qiu pursed her lips, and decided to make a big pot of all kinds of meatballs, and let this little onion stare dryly, unable to eat them!
