He seemed to have heard that the group of brats he brought had caused trouble here just now. After the old man came out of the store, he glared at everyone before walking to the counter.At this time, the customers received by the store manager had already left, the store manager looked up at the old man, with something in his mouth, and asked a clerk who came out with the old man vaguely: "Is everything ordered? "

"Alright, these are the energy stones they brought..." As he said that, the clerk was operating something on the light screen suspended on his arm, and sent the information to his store manager.

The store manager and the old man started arguing about the quantity and price of energy stones. After a long time, the two finally reached an agreement.The store manager manipulated his terminal, and said vaguely: "Deduct the amount you bought today... this amount."

The old man nodded in satisfaction after seeing that the number displayed on his wrist had arrived. The black face that always seemed to be owed him a lot of money only showed a slight smile at this moment: "Okay, see you later."

A group of children either pushed or pulled the pile of things out of the store, looking at the store by the road from time to time with reluctant little eyes.Standing at the door, you can't clearly see what is being sold in each store, but even some of the gadgets hanging and displaying at the door of those stores will make everyone very greedy.

Lan Ze saw sharply that several people were carrying a small box at the door of a store, and the clerk in the store was taking out a dry, white and slightly yellowish thing from the box that was obviously much larger than the box itself. .Lan Ze couldn't see it very clearly, he only vaguely felt that the thing looked a bit like dried squid, but what caught his attention more was the metal box itself - it could hold things that exceeded its size, could it be some kind of spatial object? !

"Oiyo..." The result was that he bumped into the back of Cang Qing who was standing still, rubbed his poor nose, and then glared at Cang Qing's thin but very hard back: "Why? stopped?"

Cang Qing didn't speak, just pointed to the old man at the front of the line, a man held the old man, and seemed to be discussing something with him, what made the group of children feel uncomfortable was that the man's eyes swept over the group of children from time to time , The look in the eyes made the children feel very disgusted.

Lan Ze touched and marked: The sight in that person's eyes is called "wretched".

The wretched man's eyes were mainly focused on Lou Ke and the boys with very big eyes, and he didn't notice the sleepy Cang Qing at the end of the line with his eyelids half drooping, and the one behind Cang Qing with only half of his head sticking out. , In fact, Aozawa also has a pair of big eyes and fair skin.The man negotiated something with the old man in a low voice from time to time. It could be seen that the old man's expression was a little loose, and his eyes scanned the child behind him from time to time, but he still shook his head helplessly in the end.

Lan Ze was far away, and could only faintly hear what the old man said: I can't make the decision, they are all registered.The man showed disappointment, but the old man thought about it, and finally said to the man: "Let's talk about it later, maybe there is a way." When the man heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he pointed at Lou Ke. He said: "Then I agree, if you are going to sell these few, you have to keep them for me!"

The old man glanced at the children who stared at them with wide-eyed puzzled faces, and stared at him with vigilant and angry eyes, and said indifferently: "We'll talk about it at that time, we can't say for sure yet."

But it would be good to have such an answer, the man smiled at the old man very satisfied, stepped aside, and showed an even more disgusting disgusting smile to the children passing by him one by one.

Lan Ze wondered, Cang Qing's group of children can be regarded as the boss's private property - they were made with money, raised, and brought here to work as coolies, but why does the old man want to sell them?Would he still be alive if the higher-ups found out?Could it be that the old man has lost his mind?

Lan Ze, who was puzzled in his heart, didn't notice that Cang Qing adjusted his steps from time to time, covering the man perfectly in his shadow from the beginning to the end on the way past the man, perfectly preventing the man with the wretched expression from seeing him. Aozawa half-eyed.

The person I met on the way changed the atmosphere of the little devils in the whole team towards the old man. Starting with Lou Ke, all the children scratched the old man's somewhat crooked back with unkind eyes, almost killing them. Condensed the essence of the general.

But the old man didn't pay any attention to the brats behind him who were staring at him with knives. He just half-held his left hand very calmly, so that all the children present could clearly see that there was a weird, palm-like palm on his palm. There are several buttons of different colors on it, which are under his fingers.

All the children present knew what it was—the controller that controlled the collars around their necks and held the power of life and death over them.At the beginning, when they were thrown into this barren planet together, many disobedient children died on this thing.After that, some children who challenged the old man's authority also died on this thing.

They don't know how to use this thing, but they know that it is the key to controlling the life and death of each of them!

Thinking of his own plan, Lou Ke, a brat who has always been unable to control his temper, could only grit his teeth, but he still could only tell himself: patience, patience, follow this old guy back as usual, Then... just wait a while, and they will be truly free! !

"Alas... It's really cheap and not good." Lan Ze sighed while holding a bag-shaped food labeled "Nutrition and Health Standard Taste" between his thumb and forefinger.

Cang Qing drove the mecha calmly, followed closely behind the team in front, and let out a "hmm" after hearing the sound.

Throwing down the bag of "food" that gave people headaches just thinking about the taste, Lan Ze put his arms on the back of Cangqing's chair: "I don't know what happened to the baked eggs we hid last time, can we still eat...those Even if the eggs in the cave have not been hatched yet, the things inside may have formed..."

His sense of taste, vision, and brain circuits are all within the normal range of ordinary people, so if the eggs are as before, with only one spot of different color inside, he will definitely cook them unceremoniously eat up.But if the things inside those eggs have already begun to take shape...forgive him for being really speechless.

Cang Qing let out a "hmm" again, and then said again: "If you can't eat the hidden ones, go to the place last time to find some to eat."

Lan Ze's body froze, and he coughed dryly: "That... just don't need it."

Cang Qing was a little puzzled: "Why? Even if they have hatched, their fighting power should not be as strong as ours now. If there are not many of them, we can deal with them."

"No, no, that's not the problem!" Lan Ze said, holding back the churning in his stomach, "I just don't want to eat hairy eggs...the ones that are half-hatched, the things inside have formed but not yet fully hatched! "

Cang Qing had never heard of "hairy eggs", nor did he know the concept of "half-hatched", but since they found those eggs, Lan Ze explained to him how those eggs turned into those who attacked them and grew in Animals of the planet.

"Why?" Cang Qing didn't understand, "Eggs can be eaten, you can eat those grown-up things, why can't you eat the middle one? Is it poisonous?" The concept of "poison" was also instilled in him by Lan Ze inadvertently before. .

"It's not poisonous..." Lan Ze weakly knocked his head on the back of Cangqing—it was a little hard, which made him dizzy for a while.After sorting out his thoughts, he explained, "How should I put it... It's just a concept, that is, seeing very young lives, I can't bear to eat them before they are born..."

While talking, Lan Ze violently scratched his hair: "Ah——I don't know, but I just feel uncomfortable eating this kind of half-hatched thing!"

Cang Qing was silent, blinked his eyes, there was silence in the case, and then he heard his voice: "Okay, don't eat."

Lan Ze raised his head abruptly, and looked around the back of the chair to look at Cang Qing's side face: "I forgot, do you want to eat too? If you don't have any objection to this aspect, we can..." He remembered Now, Cang Qing is different from himself, last time he ate real and normal "food" for the first time, maybe his need for this kind of food is more eager than himself, who has eaten it before.He didn't want to ignore Cang Qing's wish.

Cang Qing turned his head, his gray pupils looked into Lan Ze's black eyes seriously, he raised his hand, and rubbed the top of Lan Ze's soft head as usual: "You don't want to eat, and I don't want to eat either." See Lan Ze still had doubts in his eyes, and he explained again, "I don't want to eat those things that much."

"Don't you want to eat? Didn't you like the taste last time??" Lan Ze's eyes widened. This time, he changed from being puzzled to shocked. Last time when the two of them ate, they were always expressing their opinions. , Now that I think about it carefully, Cang Qing has never expressed any opinions since he ate the food!Could it be that he ate too much concentrated food, to the point where he lost his sense of taste?Or is it that the genetic modification before his birth changed his sense of taste into some strange circuit? !

Seeing that he was so nervous, Cang Qing slightly increased the strength of his palm, and rubbed the top of his head again: "No, I like it, but I'm not in such a hurry to eat." If Lan Ze wanted to eat, of course he would accompany him At the same time, after all, although the taste and texture of the thing are a bit strange, I really like it.But if Aozawa doesn't want to eat it, he doesn't want to eat something Aozawa doesn't like.

Lan Ze blinked his eyes and frowned. Seeing that Cang Qing withdrew his hand and continued to drive the mecha, he sighed and patted his chest to reassure: "Don't worry! We will definitely find more delicious food! I will have more How to make delicious food, if there is a chance in the future..."

After all, although the taste of the distributed food is unbearable, they will not be hungry because of it. Lan Ze went back and forth in his heart a few times, and finally felt that he would rather eat grass-flavored jelly than eat those with "Mao" Eggs, especially those cubs of those seafood, in case the young of those things look like bugs—in fact, this is his real willingness to not eat those things!

"Prepare to disband." Lou Ke's voice suddenly brought Lan Ze back to his senses, and he focused his eyes on the screen directly in front of him. It was the big crack they were very familiar with, and this time—there was still the last time hidden there. The "food" that was hidden by them and is still unknown today.
