Chapter 304 Little Fool
When Xu Yang woke up in the morning, he felt that he was not as energetic as before.
He looked down at the Yanduo Talisman on his chest. It turned out that it exudes a faint heat and bestows the blessing of the sun, which can speed up the recovery of physical strength. Now the color of the entire amulet is dim, as if it has aged for a thousand years overnight, and it feels cold and cold to the touch.
Could it be that Yanduo was killed? This possibility cannot be ruled out.
Xu Yang scratched his hair, and the electric curtains opened by themselves. The weather outside was fine, the sun was shining brightly, and it was a rare good weather. He went downstairs to the closet and saw Farosa sleeping on the red satin sheets with the little fool sitting beside her.
Little Fool is a 4-year-old young witch who used to live in a back-up training center for witches. Her brain is not very good. The staff suspects that her natural ignorance is related to her own magic power, but there is no clue and needs to be investigated.
Her eyes were dull and her movements were slow, as soon as she saw Xu Yang, she slipped into Falosa's arms.
Faroza fell into a deep sleep and didn't open her eyes. Xu Yang stroked the black hair on the little fool's head, sat on the high-backed armchair inlaid with gold, took off the amber Yanduo amulet, and put it on the bedside table.
I can't work from 6 o'clock to 24 o'clock, Xu Yang secretly thought. Then give yourself a day off today, it happens to be Saturday.
They implement a two-day break system, but because Xu Yang is the boss, they don't have a full day off, and they are basically running around or doing errands. So he decided to treat today as a real vacation, to sleep in an armchair until Farosa woke up.
Faroza's biological clock is as accurate as ever, and she wakes up at a quarter past seven with the little fool drooling next to her pillow. Xu Yang opened his eyes and saw this scene, thinking he was about to see the child explode, but Farosa didn't get angry, just lifted the little fool to the bedside, wiped off the stain with a paper towel, and then restored the pillow with the law of recovery to a clean state.
"Why are you so friendly?" Xu Yang was curious.
"I don't care about fools." Faroza picked up the little fool, "I'm worried that she will get an electric shock, or she will slip and fall. Although she can recover, the scene is always not very good. Other young witches seem rebellious at best, but this one She can't understand human speech at all. Take her for an examination when you have time, and then try the law of reply."
"What about this talisman?" Xu Yang pointed at the Yanduo talisman, "It seems to have become empty. Could it be that something happened to Yanduo?"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Faroza rubbed her sleepy eyes, then picked up the amulet to observe, "I'm not sure, maybe it was injured, so this is a way to remind us."
She used the law of recovery on the talisman to restore it to 7 days ago, and Xu Yang was sure that the talisman was still useful at that time. But even with the law of recovery, the talisman did not emit power fluctuations again, indicating that the source of power was cut off.
"Can you still contact Yanduo?" Xu Yang asked.
Falosa closed her eyes, and gently called out with a mental power link. But there was no corresponding feedback from the other end of the telepathy.
Whatever Yanduo was doing, it was very unusual.
Maybe Yanduo is dead, Faroza pondered, but it is impossible. If the power is divided among the mystics, the normal Yanduo is the stronger one. If it extracts the power of the sun, it will be among the strongest list of those.
"I'm not familiar with the mystic in the Great North," Falosa said. "Maybe it ran into some powerful enemy when it was looking for the Lord of the Forest in the Great North."
"Isn't Yanduo very dangerous?" Xu Yang was worried about Yanduo. It was strong and kind, and it was a different kind among the mystics.
"Oh," Faroza sneered, "Yan Duo must have used his brain to survive until today. He must have his own means. Let's not worry too much about it. It can always find a way to survive."
"Maybe," Xu Yang stretched, leaving the amulet in the secret room, "I'll take a day off."
"Take a day off, what are you going to do?"
"It's called a rest, of course it means doing nothing and wandering around. You can go wherever you want, that's called a rest."
"Shouldn't you be with me? Come and help me." Faroza urged.
"Occasionally, I have to live a completely unburdened life."
"Like a fool," Faroza said, curling her lips. "Go, go, and leave us here to die."
"Don't be angry, I'll bring this for you." Xu Yang carried the little fool over. She struggled uncomfortably in Xu Yang's arms for a while, but she didn't cry. Finally, she quietly adapted to the new arms.
"That's about the same."
Farosha and Xu Yang left the secret room and came to the corridor.
The terrace is wide and has a good view from the outside. Farosa originally only liked to see human cities being bombed to pieces, but she saw construction projects everywhere, 100-meter-high tower cranes went up overnight, and engineering robots Everywhere is busy, human beings drive large machinery, seeking to level the land and rebuild.
There was a loud roar of engines outside. Falosa looked up and saw several tracks across the sky. Seven heavy-duty transport shuttles flew across the sky. Each of them weighed at least a thousand tons, surrounded by twice as many It was escorted by a number of light fighter jets, two of which had a rather unstable flight trajectory and seemed to have been attacked.
The seven heavy-duty transport planes landed at the top of the Fedro-McGee shopping plaza in an orderly manner. The staff had already taken their positions on the top of the mall, ready for docking, and reserved an integrated cargo channel for them to improve transportation efficiency.
After the shuttle landed, boxes of goods were continuously transported down, and slid into the shopping mall along the cargo passage to replenish the entire shopping mall. The whole process was efficient, precise, and completed in one go, which reminded Falosa of ants moving. Scenes. It's like blood transfusion to the whole city, these goods can quickly make up for the material shortage in various industries today.
People have already known the news about the replenishment of the shopping mall in advance, so they are already waiting at the entrance of the shopping mall, waiting to rush in to stock up. Citizens with better families are stationed in the apron on the middle floor one after another, so as not to fill up their shuttles Never give up.
The shopping mall was remodeled overnight last night, adding twice as many entrances and exits to carry a huge amount of passengers. Otherwise, when it opens at 8 o'clock, crowds will cause stampede accidents, and they will lose a lot of sales.
Faroza narrowed her eyes to observe the scene.
"This is the delivery ability and logistics ability of modern humans, which can quickly travel to any corner of the world." Falosa said.
"Indeed, and it is this kind of technical barrier that distinguishes large enterprises from small and medium-sized enterprises." Xu Yang agreed, "Other small shopping malls have been emptied out of business now, and only their home energy continues to sell, eventually forming a substantial monopoly."
Faroza thought for a while.
"If it is a society of witches," she said, "it would be difficult to see such a large-scale logistics and transportation link, and we can also open the portal, but we have neither the demand nor the productivity of this scale. "
"Yeah, so technological civilization is still very cool." Xu Yang said, "corporateism is not worthy of such advanced productivity, so conflicts abound."
Faroza nodded slightly.
"Take her to breakfast." Faroza went downstairs.
Xu Yang pinched the little fool's face, and found that the little fool hardly responds to external stimuli, and always looks around blankly, as if this world is difficult for her to understand.
At least she's pretty well behaved and doesn't cry or yell. The only problem is that he can't take care of himself, Xu Yang put the little fool on the ground, changed his outfit, put on a white windbreaker and a white porcelain mask, he used to be dressed in black and red, but today he completely changed his look, waiting for the clothes to change Take the little fool out again.
He pilots the Purple Wind, puts it on autopilot, and concentrates on taking care of the little fool.
Xu Yang never believed that he could be a good father, avoiding childbirth, and was also afraid of being constrained by the family. Taking care of the little fool like a patient is already the limit of his ability, and other things, he is powerless.
Many shops along the way have closed down because their goods have been emptied by nervous citizens, and there are not even grocery stores.
The navigation system of the Zifeng took him to a vending machine in a block in the city center. He carried the little fool down, bought a can of milk on the vending machine, and then sat on a paid-for bench on the side of the street, looking at the crowd around him. Come and go.
This block is built around a large logistics center, which is owned by Tianji Logistics Company. Above Xu Yang's head, professional express drones come and go, carrying goods between the destination and the warehouse. They work very frequently, satisfying 6 The transportation needs of millions of citizens.
Half of the courier work has been replaced by drones, and the other half is handed over to humans. They must bravely carry goods into streets with poor law and order. People, and if you lose a drone, you have to replenish it from the company headquarters, which is very troublesome.
Xu Yang sat with the little idiot and fed her a little milk from time to time. The little idiot made a snoring sound when drinking milk, which was very confusing. Xu Yang could only judge whether she had really drunk it by the milk level of the bottle dropping.
"Is it fun to come out and play?" Xu Yang touched the little fool's forehead.
"Ji." The little fool made a weak voice.
Wherever there are people, there are avant-garde, conservative and corporate. The haze of giant enterprises has been withdrawn from the city, and cheerful young people of the avant-garde have emerged. They are all guys who pursue social change and have a positive attitude. Xu Yang saw a large group of drunk young people, mainly composed of college students, citizen soldiers, Composed of frustrated people and people who are engaged in art, sitting in a large truck, laughing and chatting.
"Drive to freedom!" they yelled, preparing to go to the anti-corporate demonstration zone built by the self-help association in the suburbs to experience what it would be like to be without a company.
The truck had to slow down halfway, and many people yelled at it, and the truck was stopped immediately.
The citizens pointed at a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard in the carriage. It turned out that this man was a cartoonist. The citizens noticed and took a photo and posted it on the Internet. The readers did not allow him to give up his obligation to serialize and lie flat , forcing him to return to a place with a network cable to prepare for the update.
"It's better to watch it every Monday. If you leave, where will we make up for next Monday's update." Angry citizens said.
In desperation, the cartoonist was thrown out of the car by his cheerful companions, and hurried back to his studio.
