Moe Cosmic Soup [Interstellar]

#红云#

Over the sky above Minestra's imperial city, dense dark red clouds filled the air.Red clouds rolled in from the horizon, gradually covering the entire dome.Under this light, everything in the world is ominous, like the world in the eyes of a dying person.This is a sign that the monster is about to appear.

The ancient prophecy is sung over and over again: squirrels cry at night, and their desires lie in the daytime;

The night is full of wind, the war will start, and the universe will be shrouded in blood.

#blood rain#

The heavy rain swayed into a curtain that ripped the sky and the earth.

The gurgling stagnant water converges into a moor in the depression, and turns into a stream.There are several plants growing by the stream, and a cluster of green trees with yellow butterfly-shaped corollas blooming from the top, quivering slightly in the rain.The fallen petals floated on the stream and poured into the imperial pool in the palace garden.The surface of the water stained by the petals was a crimson red, and it was boiled by the spurting rain feet, like boiling blood soup.

Between the rain curtain and the green leaves, a vague black figure can be vaguely seen.He seemed to be in some great pain, writhing in the rain and mud.

#clear sky#

The torrential rain gradually subsided, and the blood-colored dense clouds covering the dome dissipated, revealing a faint ray of sky light.

When the bus arrived at the station, there was a slight bump.

Brodo moved his body and pushed the blanket to open a small gap.Foggy water vapor condensed on the glass, obstructing the line of sight.Su Fang tacitly raised his hand to clean a small piece of glass, so that Brodo could see the outside.

"...(*￣︶￣*)" Brodo was very pleased with this tacit understanding, raised his face and smiled slightly, and did not speak.

The car started up again, and the soft yellow light of the street lamps flashed past his eyes one by one.

They were on the upper deck of a bus, and they were the only two passengers on this deck.The budding Brodo is wrapped in a thick blanket and pretends to be a big doll.

Seeing the empty carriage, Brodo became more courageous, pushed back the blanket a bit, poked his head out of the seat, and tried to climb out.

"Don't be dishonest." Su Fang warned him in a low voice, "There is a camera on the front of the car, the driver will find you."

"I just want to be discovered. =w=" Brodo muttered unconvinced, but he shrank back obediently.At an angle that Su Fang couldn't see, the purple crystal pupils dimmed slightly.

Today is February 2th, Valentine's Day on Earth.However, for them, this is not a good day for dating and shopping.

But he just capriciously proposed to visit Su Fang's city.

"Those things you mentioned, the movie theater, the popcorn, the doll-catching machine, etc., I want to see it with my own eyes."

Su Fang agreed.

The two not only went shopping together, but also used a peculiar way of walking together: Broduo turned into a dumpling, hugged by Su Fang, blatantly wandering in the streets and shopping malls, receiving the baptism of many eyes.

There is no particular reason for doing this, just to try the taste of adventure.

The announcement of the bus stop sounded: "XX Square is here. Passengers who are going to XX Amusement City, please get off at this station."

When the car stopped, Su Fang picked up Broduo, walked down slowly from the second floor, and stood in front of the exit door.

The two girls next to the railings peeked at them and whispered excitedly to each other:

"Wow, it's Broddoll!"

"It turns out that handsome guys also like cute things."

"It should be given to my girlfriend, right? I'm so envious."

"Tsk tsk, it's so beautiful! I have collected so many Broddoll dolls, and I have never seen such a well-made doll.

Listening to the discussion of the two girls, Brodo played the doll very competently, staring and motionless.Just before getting out of the car, he suddenly raised his head and smiled at them: "Hey. (＾皮＾)v"

When the two girls were stunned, Su Fang quickened his pace, quickly turned around the stop sign, and hid in a secluded street corner.A few seconds later, an exclamation came from the far away bus: "—Oh my God! Was it my eyes just now? That doll laughed!"

Brodo shook triumphantly in the blanket.Su Fang smiled: "Your Majesty, does it feel good to play pranks?"

"Yeah." Brodo hooked Su Fang's neck with his small hand, and rounded his pink lips: "I want a more exciting experience, let's go to the place with the most people to play and kiss. (*￣e￣ *)/"

Su Fang stuffed his arms back into the blanket, "Don't make trouble. If there is a big commotion now, we won't be able to continue playing."

"Oh." Brodeau fumbled in his pocket, took out a list, and ticked off the item "Take the bus around the city", "Then let's catch dolls and watch a movie .”

"Okay." Su Fang carried him into the elevator of the Amusement City Building.

The transparent outdoor viewing elevator climbs up the building, and the lights of the city fade away underfoot.Brodo's small round face was tightly pressed against the car wall, his eyes widened for a moment, greedily wanting to take in all the flowers and trees in this city.

From time to time, new passengers came up in the elevator and cast curious eyes on the man holding the big baby.Su Fang ignored it and tried his best to change the angle so that Brodo could see more scenery.

They maintained a consistent tacit understanding, and no one said anything: whether the ordinary and happy life that two people spent together like this can be reproduced in the future.

A few days ago, after the battle to eliminate the flesh giant——

Under the sunshine of the Capital Star, the glutinous rice balls of the engineering department were singing songs on the ladder, happily repairing the damaged city wall.

Although the big demon "Soul of Desire" who was so disconcerting escaped from prison, the public did not fall into an atmosphere of panic.On the contrary, the heroic deeds of the empress dowager and the emperor Niuben are everywhere: the two men smashed the attacking flesh giant into invisible scum without firing a shot, or barely moving a punch.Many people claimed vividly that what they saw with their own eyes on that day was how amazing the empress dowager and the emperor looked like heavenly beings, taking small steps in Lingxu and growing lotuses every step of the way, like two peerless swords unsheathed at the same time, and died. The enemy is Yu Sixu.

With such two imperial swords, what is a mere "Soul of Desire"!His Majesty the Emperor sealed it out of pity, and with His Majesty's strength, he could make it fly away in minutes!Just let it come here, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely take care of it!

——The above is a portrayal of the mood of glutinous rice balls all over the empire.

In such an optimistic atmosphere throughout the country, the only person who is not so optimistic is the protagonist of the rumor, His Majesty the Emperor.

At night, when Su Fang came out of the shower, he saw the ball-shaped Brodo curled up on the bedside, secretly writing something in a notebook with a blue cover.

Brodeau has a very traditional habit: keeping a diary.Happy things are recorded in the orange cover book; sad things are recorded in the blue cover book.

Su Fang never peeked at his diary, but he would pay attention to which color notebook he used.Generally speaking, happy things account for the vast majority, and only occasionally write a few sentences in the blue book.

However, since "Soul of Desire" escaped from prison, the orange book has never appeared again.Every night before going to bed, Brodo would lean on the pillow with a melancholy face while Su Fang was taking a bath, write and draw in the blue notebook, and stop to think from time to time.

The diary in his hand was suddenly taken away gently, and Broduo's wandering little soul flew back, and saw Su Fang standing beside him at some point, flipping through what he had just written.

〖Date: Cabbage Moon Radish Day

Contents: Three strange dreams

#红云#

#blood rain#

#clear sky#

These three dreams again.What do they really mean?Who is that person struggling in the heavy rain?I don't know, I'm so scared. ('⌒｀)〗

"Did you have a strange dream?" Su Fang put down the diary and asked softly, "Why didn't you tell me if it bothered you so much?"

"I..." Brodo curled up and muttered, "I have a bad premonition." In the second dream, the struggling figure looked like Su Potian and Su Fang. He didn't know whether it was auspicious or not. fierce.

Su Fang hesitated, and tapped the "#" with his fingertips.

Brodo's dream unfolded vividly before his eyes: over the imperial city of Minestra, dense dark red clouds filled the air...

Although it was almost late at night, there were still many players in the amusement city.The electronic music is loud, mixed with the roaring engine sound of the racing car.

After exchanging a plastic cup full of game coins, Su Fang came to the largest doll catching machine.

The tall and clean floor-to-ceiling glass cover is full of dolls, big and small, the big ones are half the height of a person, and the small ones are as small as fists.The most attractive ones are a few Brodo dolls, smiling cutely at the crowd coming and going outside, with exquisite faces and almost authentic costumes, you can tell that they are of great value at a glance.

Countless tourists have tried to catch them home, but no one has ever succeeded.They are stacked seemingly randomly, but in fact each doll is carefully positioned to create maximum friction.Not to mention that, the merchant deliberately made the Brodo dolls extremely heavy, exceeding the maximum gripping force of the mechanical claws.Even if someone were lucky enough to grab them, they would surely fall off when they left the glass cover exit.

Su Fang had long been quite dissatisfied with the merchant's blatant tricks, so he made an appointment with Brodot before going out, and he would definitely catch all these dolls today.

"What should I do now?" Su Fang asked Brodo in his arms in a low voice.

"Leave it to me." Brodo said confidently, "Put me on the ground."

Finding a hidden angle, Su Fang gently put Broduo down.Using both hands and feet, Brodot moved swiftly, and he crawled to the rear of the machine without anyone noticing it.

There is a door near the ground, which is the channel for replenishing dolls, and it is inlaid with an electronic lock.

The electronic lock of the earth is vulnerable to the technology of the Mengtang Kingdom. Brodo opened the small door without any effort, and got into the pile of dolls.

Su Fang dropped two game coins and pressed the handle.The mechanical claw moved down slowly, pacing back and forth between several Brodo dolls, suddenly seemed to be pulled by some kind of traction, and inserted into the pile of dolls steadily and accurately.

When it rose again, one—no, two Broddolls—hanged firmly on the claw hook.

Someone actually caught two Brodots at once!The surrounding players were immediately attracted, and gathered to watch.The height of the mechanical claw was raised little by little, and people could clearly see that the ribbons on the two Brodo's military uniforms were twisted together and firmly hooked on the claw hook of the mechanical claw, so they would not fall off.

"This is really god-like luck!" Someone exclaimed.

"However, there must be no way to pass through the exit at the top of the glass cover." Some people worried, "The design of that exit is very wicked, not even one can be squeezed out, let alone two."

In the discussion of everyone, the mechanical claw is getting closer and closer to the exit.Then, as expected, the two dolls got stuck, their heads flattened and their faces sunken by the narrow gap.One of them couldn't bear the squeeze and pull, and fell down with a plop, and fell back into the pile of dolls.Relieved, the mechanical claw suddenly managed to grab the other one out of the glass cover.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" The crowd excitedly applauded and cheered.

Su Fang put the doll he had grabbed at his feet, but he didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, and stuffed two more game coins into the coin hole.

"No way, come again?" The crowd was surprised.Most people are content with catching one, how could such good luck come and go again and again!

Unmoved, Su Fang shook the control lever again.Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the mechanical claw was slowly raised—two more Brodos.This time it was the swords that were hooked together.The ending was the same as last time, one fell back and the other was caught out.

The crowd forgot to even marvel, and there was a sentence written on everyone's face—fuck, what's going on today? !

What surprised them even more was that Su Fang, who had even grabbed two Brodos, still had no intention of stopping.

After doing this several times, all the Broddolls came from the glass cover to Su Fang's feet, and the Arhats were neatly stacked.

Amusement City finally couldn't take it anymore.A staff member in uniform walked through the crowd and came to Su Fang: "Sir, please wait a moment. Can I check these dolls you caught?"

"Why?" Su Fang raised an eyebrow.

"Uh...it's like this. These dolls are relatively expensive. We are worried about quality problems, so we will check for you."

This excuse is too insincere, but Su Fang still shrugged needlessly: "Oh, yes, you can check."

"Thank you." The staff stooped to pick up a Brodo, and swept it around with the metal detector in a serious manner.In fact, he didn't know what to check, but the situation was so strange, and the program of the machine was fine, so he could only think that these dolls had been tampered with and installed some mechanism.

Brodo mixed among the pile of dolls, watching them being picked up one by one.When it was almost his turn, he used teleportation magic to switch places with the doll next to him.

Although there were many people around, they were all focused on the doll being inspected. In addition to Su Fang's ingenious cover, no one noticed that a doll was making small movements secretly.

All the dolls were checked and nothing was wrong.

"Can I go?" Su Fang asked lightly.

"Uh..." The staff member wiped the sweat off his brow, cursing inwardly, but he really couldn't think of an excuse to stop him. "So many dolls, how do you get them?"

"Oh, don't worry about that." Su Fang magically conjured up a foldable trolley, bundled the Brodos into a pile and put them on top, strode away, leaving a group of onlookers with different expressions standing in place land.

So many dolls are too eye-catching, after leaving the amusement city, Su Fang distributed them to passers-by, leaving only two for himself. ——Of course, one of them is His Majesty the Emperor himself.

When he got to a place where no one was around, Brodo couldn't wait to ask for credit: "Husband! Did I do a good job? (///▽///)" He shook his round head and danced, "It's a good thing there are so many small pieces on my clothes. can be hung together."

Su Fang laughed a little when he heard the words: "Tell me, after being messed up by us, will this store take off all the doll's clothes in the future?"

"That's not scary." Brodo puffed up his stomach with his hips crossed, "I can use jj to string them all together."

"...Your Majesty, morality."

The next project is to watch a movie.

In order not to attract attention, Su Fang did not check in until the lights in the auditorium were turned off.He bought the last row of seats and put Brodeau in the corner.The viewing effect of this location is not good, but it is very safe.

Brodo had never been to a movie theater before, so it was a novelty.The content of the movie is not very attractive to him. For him, the 3D picture is as simple as a shadow play.But he likes this atmosphere very much: a group of people are in a semi-enclosed space, breathing together and sharing fate for a few 10 minutes.

Because of Valentine's Day, there are many couples in the screening hall.Looking from the last row, you can see that there are all pairs of heads next to each other in front of you.

"That's great." Brodo said softly.

Su Fang was beside him, but they couldn't hug each other.He could only lean head to head with the doll that looked exactly like him, as if comforting each other.

Perhaps because the light on the screen was too harsh, Brodo suddenly felt that his eyes could not be opened.

Closing his eyes in the dark, he saw Mr. Fish Soup.

Teacher Yutang asked, "Are you really unable to see clearly, or are you deliberately unwilling to see clearly?"

The day after reading Broduo's diary, Su Fang and Broduo came to Mr. Fish Soup's house and asked him about several plants that appeared in the second dream.

The fish soup teacher carefully distinguished and touched his chin: "These kinds of plants are a recipe for a fragrant soup called 'Soul Relief Soup'."

The "soup" of Mengtang Country is a very broad concept.It not only refers to the soup for drinking, but also refers to the hot springs for bathing with some special purposes, such as the original soup.

Tang people like to soak in hot springs very much. To use a common saying, "the skin is wrapped in soup in the morning, and the soup is wrapped in skin at night."The former means drinking a full stomach of soup, while the latter means soaking the whole person in the hot spring.

There is a little story about the origin of Zhenhun Decoction.

It is said that a long time ago, there was a young man who aspired to become a master of soup science.Unfortunately, he encountered many setbacks, lost all hope, and felt that he could not survive.

The young man came up with a very creative way to commit suicide.Filled a large pot with water, climbed up the ladder, and prepared to commit suicide by jumping into the pot, turning his life into a big glutinous rice ball.

Just as he was about to jump down, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance in the steam that hit his face.The fragrance is rich and clear, which makes people forget the customs.The young man who wanted to change the glutinous rice balls suddenly felt refreshed and happy. He threw away the idea of ​​suicide and took a nap comfortably on the lawn, enjoying the nourishment of the sun and rain. He felt that life was infinitely broad.

"It's as if my soul has been soothed, I know who I am, and I am no longer confused by external objects." The young man described it in his later works.

Since that day, he began to study the source of this aroma with great concentration.It turned out that there were several kinds of plants growing where he jumped into the pot.Their flowers and leaves were blown into the pot by the wind, and they boiled without fire, forming a fragrant soup.

Later, this young man became the originator of Meng Tang Country Spice Soup Science.The fragrant soup formula he discovered, because it has the effect of nourishing the mind, clearing the heart and calming the soul, has since been named "Soul Relief Soup".

But why did the recipe of this soup appear in Brodo's dream on purpose?

"When did you start having these three dreams?" Teacher Yu Tang asked.

"Since I met Su Potian." Brodo recounted his adventures on Susu Star, "At the beginning, I only remembered having a dream, but I couldn't recall the content. From the day Soul' escaped from prison, the content of dreams became clearer and clearer, so clear that I could record them with a dream recorder."

Teacher Yutang pondered for a moment, "So, these three dreams may have been 'planted' in your mind by Su Potian. There was such a magic in Mengtang Kingdom 1000 years ago, but not many people know how to use it now. gone."

"Does he want to tell me something in this way?" Brodeau was a little uneasy.These three dreams gave him a very bad feeling, like a black puzzle.

Teacher Yutang didn't answer right away, and read the three dreams again. "My interpretation is that in the process of fighting demons, if we use 'Soul Relief Soup' in a certain way, we can achieve the goal of destroying demons. But at the same time, we must also pay a very painful price." He pointed to the first The figure struggling in the heavy rain at the end of the second dream, "The question now is, who is this person?" The picture is too blurry to distinguish the face of that person.

"I...I don't know." Brodo shook his head in confusion, "I can't see his face clearly in the dream."

"Really?" Teacher Yu Tang smiled, "Are you really unable to see clearly, or are you deliberately unwilling to see clearly?"

"... Brodo? Brodo?"

Someone is calling softly.

Brodot suddenly woke up from his dream.The ear-piercing sound effects of the theater were still in his ears, and he fell asleep lying on Su Fang's lap at some point, Su Fang bent over, and whispered to his ear with his lips: "What's wrong with you?"

Brodo felt his cheeks were wet and cool, and when he raised his hand to touch it, it was actually full of tears.

"I... I see clearly." He choked in a low voice, "The person in the heavy rain is you."

Teacher Yutang was right, he did not want to see clearly on purpose.

But even though he didn't want to see clearly, the answer was already in the dream.In the second dream, the clump of green trees is named "Sufang" in Chinese, which can be made into red dye. "Southern Vegetables and Trees" records: "Sufang, tree-like Sophora japonica, sunspots, out of Jiuzhen. Southerners dye crimson, soak with Dayu water, the darker the color."

The person struggling in the heavy rain has black hair, black clothes, and an obsidian bow and arrow on his back.But his face is not Su Potian, but Su Fang.

The meanings of these three dreams seem to be obvious: to destroy the monsters, Su Fang must endure pain in some way.And the blood rain dyed red by "Su Fang" flowed into the imperial pool of the palace garden, which also implied that he would bring disaster to Minestra's imperial city.

In fact, the prophecies of these three dreams are about to come true soon.Brodo knew that Su Fang was about to do a very, very bad thing after returning to Minestra's imperial city this time.

Brodo wiped away the tears from his eyes with his round hands, "Let's not do that, shall we? I don't want to lose you."

Su Fang was silent for a while, hugged him tighter, and his voice became softer: "Isn't it all agreed? When we return to Mengtang Country this time, the city will be massacred."

The dream that Su Potian "planted" in Brodo's mind was like a key that opened a secret door.In that secret door, there are deeply damaged memories spanning thousands of years—the story of the Iris Alliance is neither completely true, nor is it over.
