The clear river meanders all the way to the north, the yellow land gradually disappears, and is covered by a little greenery on the bank. Among the sparse forests, occasionally there are short tree stumps left after felling.

It is the trace left by human beings.

Su Muqiu glanced at the child next to him. Since the child was rescued by him, he saluted several times with extreme rigor, and now he is carefully twisting the water.He is wearing a set of clothes made of animal skin and linen, which has a peculiar style and is very exotic. Even Su Muqiu, who has been fighting in Mu Yuchengfeng for many years and has traveled to almost every corner of the Lambda galaxy, has never seen it. .

Su Muqiu secretly took out the small disc that Ye Xiu gave him. In the center of the disc, there was a red dot that should represent the center. The small golden arrow on the edge of the disc pointed in the direction of their mechs, and next to the red dot, There is a slightly smaller green dot that changes position as the child moves.

He quietly put the disc away, scratched his head, and sighed.

In his understanding, green and red are the difference between normal and dangerous, but Su Muqiu doesn't know what the definition of these colors Ye Xiu is, so he can't tell whether the child is dangerous or not.

He disassembled the water-soaked Guvre pistol into several parts, put it on a handkerchief, picked a place with good light to dry it, and took off the other items on his body one by one to wipe it.

Seeing him take out a large number of weapons from trouser pockets, boot shafts, shoe soles and other incredible places, from portable laser guns to pocket knives and mech maintenance tools, the eyes of children are straightened.

Su Muqiu noticed the gaze, the look of wanting to touch but not daring to touch, immediately reminded him of many things, almost without thinking, he said to the five or six-year-old child, "Come here."

The child hesitated, and it took him a long time to linger beside Su Muqiu, and then he was stuffed with a gun that he couldn't even hold in his palms.

Su Muqiu signaled the child who was holding the gun to sit down, and explained how to disassemble it: "This is a laser gun I modified, be careful so it won't explode. First remove it from the energy box...no matter what gun you disassemble, The magazine is the top priority... Hey, it's miserable, even the water has entered the inside. Okay, then you press here... Very good! If there is a slide cover, pay attention to the disassembly latch, don't force it to be removed, The next step is..."

Su Muqiu explained contentedly, his speech and movements were fast, and he completely regarded him as an intern from the maintenance team. I am afraid that even those who can communicate with him have a half-knowledge, let alone understand.The child followed in a hurry, almost completely following Su Muqiu's instructions, carefully pressing or removing or pulling out the position he pointed out, the small palm felt the heavy weight of the cold metal, and soon the palm was full of sweat.

Until the dismantling was completed, the child looked at the parts all over the place, his eyes were blank, and he didn't understand what he had done, why he could turn this metal object into countless fine parts in his hands.

Su Muqiu smiled silently, gave him a clean soft cloth, and made a wiping motion, asking him to help dry the water.Compared with before, this action is simple and clear. The child immediately understands it, and carries out the homework seriously. Occasionally, he thinks that it is concealed to touch the detailed engraving and interface on the parts, full of amazement, and his eyes shine.

The laser gun without the energy box is less lethal than a toy water gun, Su Muqiu is very relieved that the child will play with it, but when he picks up the energy box and holds it in his hand, a bit of melancholy emerges.

This small half tube of energy was accumulated by him jumping up and down in the Dancing Rain the past few days, bit by bit from every corner, and it can be used a few times in the small laser gun, maybe he can get lucky Killing a few star beasts or bugs is not enough for Dancing Rain—even sending a coordinate message of 'Help me' is powerless.

He checked the condition of the mecha by himself, and the damage was so severe that it could almost be scrapped directly. The spare material in the space button can only be used to block the air leakage hole on the fuselage, or to repair the iron sheet of the sun swallowing gun barrel.

It's a pity that before the mech has energy to activate, no matter how he repairs it, it will be futile.

Su Muqiu looked at the sky gloomily and sighed, the child also looked at the sky, and was startled to realize that the sun had passed the center and tilted slightly, then put down the things in his hand, and said something to Su Muqiu.Su Muqiu made guesses, and could barely hear that the child said he was leaving, so he nodded without hesitation, and the child went into the woods in a hurry, and soon disappeared.

Su Muqiu continued to arrange things, calmly and calmly, not in a hurry. A few minutes later, he raised his eyes and glanced at the direction in which the child was leaving. Find the figure of the child.He quickly put away his belongings, followed the trace of the child's departure, quietly followed, and slowly disappeared into the shadow of the tree. Even though the sun was shining brightly at this moment, and his military uniform was pure white, it was difficult to spot his figure at a glance.

After following for a while, he suddenly stopped, leaned against the tree trunk and slapped his forehead, shook his head and sighed, then returned to the original path: "Forget it, what's the point of following a child..."

Su Muqiu really wants to know where the human beings gather, but judging from the clothes, there must be a huge difference between the two civilizations. If they come to some bad planet, such as highly intelligent bugs that evolve to rule the world, and humans are food, This time he went into the mouth of a fat sheep... Even if he didn't have such an exaggerated imagination, it is a very common fate to die from a local virus without antibodies, and he shouldn't go deep without preparation.

As long as you know that there are people on this planet, and then follow the water source, there are plenty of opportunities.

After confirming all the weapons, he went into the water and took a quick shower, returning to a neat and tidy appearance. He was about to put on his boots and was about to find a container to put water back when he heard the grass rustle.

The one who drilled out of the grass with the muzzle of the laser gun was the child who left half an hour ago.He held a few brown-green fruits in his arms, not small in size, each at least three to four times the size of an adult's fist, the child didn't pay attention to the laser gun in Su Muqiu's hand, and struggled to hold the fruits and wobbled closer , and then put the heavy fruit on the grass.

When the child breathed a sigh of relief and looked up, Su Muqiu put away the gun and observed the fruit curiously.

The former pointed at the fruit, and repeated 'Zi' and 'Bao Da' to Su Muqiu. Seeing that Su Muqiu didn't understand, he picked up the shell of the fruit with his hands, knocked and bumped it with sharp stones, and finally knocked out a crooked shape after a while. cracks.

Juice with a light aroma flows out of the fruit. From the cracks, you can see the dark green pulp inside, the seeds protected by the viscous liquid, and a trace of flesh-red fibers... Judging from Su Muqiu's experience, this The thing is like something that will kill people if the alien movie eats it, or the young eggs of an unknown species in the alienated star beast's lair.

"Zi. Goose." The child took a sip of the juice from the crack, stretched out his fingers and stuffed a small piece of sticky flesh into his mouth, chewed with puffed cheeks, and at the same time handed the fruit to Su Muqiu. Be serious.

"...You mean 'hungry'?" Su Muqiu realized that it was past noon.

He joined the army, and it was normal for him to go on missions without eating a few meals. In addition, he himself had a particularly high tolerance for hunger, and a few pieces of dry food lasted for half a week.

However, Su Muqiu never made things difficult for himself. He immediately raised a smile and took the fruit with kindness: "Is this fruit called Baoda? Oh, no, Baoda means to repay the gift? Take it to eat? I just asked for it to eat." Give me this?"

Su Muqiu politely declined the stone that the child gave him, picked up the knife and aimed it at the center, then slashed down, neatly split the hard shell into two halves, with a hole made by scratching on one side.He changed hands and stuffed the other complete half back into the child's hands.

The child refused puzzledly, Su Muqiu shook his head.

"Are you hungry? You helped wipe the weapons and found food. All the laborers like me have food to eat. In addition, you fell into the water in the morning, so you can eat something to calm your shock. I will give you half of it and eat together." Bar."

His smile is hearty, his words are friendly, not mentioning his appearance, the atmosphere alone is relaxing, the child with a serious expression like a small adult couldn't refuse, his stomach rumbled, and he ate shyly, Su Muqiu turned his head and cut Several other fruits were picked up.

By the time Su Muqiu finished his work, the child had already eaten the half, and accepted Su Muqiu's freshly cut portion with hesitation, and thanked him solemnly.Su Muqiu observed the child, and confirmed that he had indeed eaten all of it without any abnormality, until the other party looked back in doubt, then grinned and ate the part where the child's finger poked a depression at the beginning.

The flesh is sweet and not greasy, a little sour and astringent because of the high temperature, but it appetizes and relieves the heat. The one big and one small eat together happily. Seeing that it is not early, the two parties bid farewell. , and this time Su Muqiu made a mistake, and he lost the person. Presumably, the child treated him with a friendly attitude, perhaps out of the kindness of saving his life, and he himself does not lack the basic awareness of prevention.

Su Muqiu went to the woods alone to pick this edible fruit, tied it into a large string with the rope he brought, and carried it in his hands, and returned to the meeting place with a relaxed mood, thinking that this expedition would solve the problems of drinking water, food and biological investigation at once. , I don't know what Ye Xiu found.

'……leaf'

"Ye Xiu...be sober..."

'...don't go on, you killed...isn't that enough...'

'...Colonel, it's time for you to rein in the precipice. '

boom!

Ye Xiu, who was climbing on the cliff, suddenly lowered his head, squinted his eyes due to the dazzling sunlight, and shouted at the big white cat a few feet below: "Cat, were you talking just now?"

The animal leaped lightly on the rock wall and caught up with Ye Xiu in a few strokes.
