Mecha and Knife

"it is true."

"Did it, it's really a good one, my master is really strong, it's really..."

The viewers who watched this video for the first time thought they had heard it wrong. What was it? Just now, they were talking about Ji Xinghe's martial arts training. He said that Ji Xinghe had great strength. Why did he suddenly say that Ji Xinghe broke three An imperial mech?

Shouldn't the editor of this documentary be fired? It's a mess.

The audience didn't know that it was not the editor's fault, but Ji Xinghe's. The original edited documentary video, because Ji Xinghe did not agree to release the video of his battle with Han Li and Jackson and the cause and effect, so it could only be in the Work overnight before the show's upcoming date.

The camera switched again, but there was no mecha battle that the audience was most curious about. Some were just scenes of Ji Xinghe repairing mecha parts in the mecha area of ​​No. [-] base, and some were just scenes of Ji Xinghe learning mecha knowledge with Shen Mu , and some are just pictures of Ji Xinghe conducting a real machine test.

Pei Jing's voice sounded as a narration: "Mr. Ji is worthy of respect. His decades of martial arts practice have given him great strength, but he has never fought with anyone, so that he knows him. No one knows that he knows kung fu. After graduating with excellent grades, he did not choose a better working environment and city, but returned to his hometown city to work for his parents, but he never gave up his love for machine repair , he was studying on Azure Star, and he is still studying after he went to Alien Star."

"When the war on the alien planet was tense, and a first-level mecha fighter lost contact somewhere because of a mission, Mr. Ji Xinghe, who could only repair the mecha in a relatively safe base, chose to wear armor. I chose to compete with the other two first-level mecha fighters for this dangerous task."

Pei Jing's narration disappeared, and the scene of Ji Xinghe's exam was reproduced on the screen. The appearance of the cripple was moving, and Ji Xinghe's voice was also moving.

"Sir, how do you choose?"

When Ji Xinghe asked this question with a cripple and another mech warrior, the [-] million viewers were moved.

Then, the federal audience finally saw the battle between the mechas. With the help of two first-level mecha fighters, the armor-piercing Ji Xinghe single-handedly defeated three imperial mechas.

"Who is to ask, Lian Po is old, can he still have food?" Pei Jing's narration became heated: "The answer is: I am an old man with a long-term ambition."

In a luxurious villa in Xinfeng City, Xinfeng Thirteenth Young Master, who had been beaten by Ji Xinghe, was still scolding the federal legal system just now, and he was imprisoned for six months after driving a few times. After watching the one-hour documentary, he got up and left the villa and his luxury car after being silent for a long time. He was going to join the army.

"Ji Xinghe can join the army at the age of 65. Why can't I die when I'm only 23? Have a criminal record? Ji Xinghe also has a criminal record. He stole individual starships and was detained. How do I know? Hehe..." The Thirteenth Young Master of Xinfeng City held his head high at the conscription office, full of arrogance: "I also want to tell you that I and Ji Xinghe are inmates? Should I also tell you that I have fought against Ji Xinghe? To be honest, I lost a move at that time."

The people at the conscription office were in awe, they had all watched "The Old Man and the Stars and the Sea", so, is he another peerless master who hides in the city?The key is that he is still very young, so it is not surprising to lose a move.

But when they got the relevant video from the detention center...

"roll."

"Go away."

The thirteenth young master of Xinfengcheng said he would get lost, and in order to go to Yixing, he spun and rolled at the conscription office.

Chapter 073 Dust Storm and Star Moon

Ji Xinghe also saw his documentary.

"There are failures, victories, talents, hard work, learning, and growth..." Su He introduced next to him: "The government doesn't want everyone to join the army, they can't afford so many soldiers, and they don't want everyone to be too Expansion thinks that the imperial mechs are weak and deceitful, and introducing your talent and hard work, and letting people see your failure is because of this. Therefore, the battle video between you and Major Han Li and Major Jackson was not shown, especially Han Those words of Major Li before the battle with you were edited out, which is actually beneficial..."

Ji Xinghe remained silent, and Su He said again: "Here I want you to make up an additional interview, which is about kung fu."

"Let me say something?"

"Just don't be too superstitious about kung fu. Spending more than ten or twenty years practicing kung fu is not as good as learning knowledge and practicing mech driving skills. Not everyone can be as talented as you and practice kung fu. At the same time, it can also take into account other aspects of learning, and it is tantamount to losing watermelons and picking sesame seeds.”

"it is good."

Ji Xinghe started to record a fact with a blank face. Real kung fu is different from other instant fighting skills.

There are 55 years of kung fu in every punch and kick, so Ji Xinghe can fight very well.

With equal emphasis on boxing and kung fu, the requirements for talent are very high, and people without talent may not be effective if they practice hard for 30 to 65 years.If kung fu is so easy to practice, if all [-]-year-old men are as good at fighting as Ji Xinghe, then Ji Xinghe will never have the opportunity to come to Alien Star, and he will become one of the coaches of millions of soldiers in Azure Star.Just one of the coaches, because he is not the only one who knows kung fu.

After the recording was finished, Su He noticed that Ji Xinghe's mood was still a bit wrong.

"Old Ji, what happened?"

"Little Su." Ji Xinghe asked earnestly: "You tell me the truth, will I become a mascot for conscription and never have the chance to fight again?"

Su He was stunned.

This truth is actually easy to understand. Since "The Old Man and the Stars and the Sea" is a documentary and there will be many episodes, the protagonist Ji Xinghe cannot die easily.In the original plan proposed by Major General Tu Yuan, Ji Xinghe should not have left Base No. [-] either. The last operation was an accident, and the estimated risk before the operation started was also very low.

"You can't say that, there are still opportunities, and Lao Ji, your contribution to repairing the mecha is actually greater. After you repair the mecha, they can go to fight. It's actually the same..."

Ji Xinghe didn't ask any more questions, he already understood.

"Okay, I know."

Su He wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. Ji Xinghe's performance after that was not abnormal. It was the same as before leaving the No. [-] base. The main task every day was to go to the mecha area to repair the mecha, and the secondary task was to go to the training area. The easiest task for guiding combat training is the actual machine test, and the rest of the time is to guide Xinxin to practice kung fu besides continuing to study.

Because of her young age and frail health, Xinxin's practice is destined to be very difficult, but the low-gravity environment on the alien planet has become a help at this time. Xinxin's practice is much easier than that on the blue star. She has a strong character and the effect is actually not bad.

For Ji Xinghe, the biggest change, or the restoration to the original, was that his mech with three gold stars was driven away by the deaf man, leaving him with only two knives that he made himself.The deaf man who passed the test again regained his right to drive the mecha, and took the mecha that Ji Xinghe had piloted to the battlefield.

Ji Xinghe has no mecha anymore. The lame man's artificial meniscus surgery went well. Once he recovers, he can pass the exam again. The left-handed brother installed a mechanical arm, but he failed the exam. The requirements are very high.

The Remnant Soldiers Company has a new group of people. They are also disabled due to the war, and they are also unwilling to leave the alien planet. They also need the belief that allows them to persevere.

No one notified Ji Xinghe of the latest exploration news of the Sanliu Grand Canyon, and his authority was not enough to allow him to communicate directly with the lame and blind people in Base No. [-]. Only text messages let him know that the lame and blind people were still alive. The deaf man and others who left the base are still alive.

"Old Ji, don't fight the orangutan one-on-one while we're away. When we go back and see it with our own eyes, we don't want to watch the video. It feels different."

Ji Xinghe failed to face off against the imperial orangutan captives in Base No. [-]. He wanted to wait for the blind men to come back and watch with their own eyes, because this was originally a gift for the blind men.

Time passed day by day, and the alien dust storm finally came.

Holding Xinxin standing at the observation porthole of the base, looking at the orange-red dust on the surface of the alien planet, Ji Xinghe was in a bad mood because he had a bad premonition.

"Dust storms are the most troublesome natural phenomenon on alien stars. The dust on alien stars is full of hematite, so it looks orange. In addition, the wind speed of dust storms is very fast, faster than a typhoon of level 6000. The height can reach [-] meters, so our communication satellites and reconnaissance satellites will be seriously affected.” Su He introduced while shooting beside: “Electronic equipment will also be seriously affected, and reconnaissance drones can fly out but cannot fly out. Come back, it is also difficult for a spaceship to land on an alien planet in a dust storm. During this period of time, the supplies will stay in space for a period of time, and they will be delivered after the dust storm passes. But don’t worry, our base’s supplies will last half a year .”

Xinxin was a little more cheerful and grown up than before, and asked curiously: "Uncle, can the mecha go inside the dust storm?"

"Yes, of course." Su He set up the shooting equipment and squatted down: "Only mechas can travel unimpeded in the dust storm, which is one of the reasons why mechas can become our main force in fighting on alien planets. Now , There are still many heroic uncles who are driving mechas, fighting with the orangutans of the empire in the dust storm."

Xin Xin clenched her fist and waved it: "Uncle Heroes will definitely be able to blow the heads of those orangutans."

"Xinxin can't say that."

"Why? They say it's not a bad word to call the imperial gorillas."

"Well, it's not about swearing, it's because it's unfair to dogs. Dogs are good friends of humans. When you return to Azure Planet, uncle will give you a puppy."

"I've seen puppies on TV, but my mother said they would bite."

"Yes, some dogs bite, but most dogs don't bite."

"I understand. It's like some children are very good and some are not. My mother only let me be friends with good children."

"Hahaha, that's the truth. Xinxin is very obedient and sensible, so everyone likes Xinxin. The puppy my uncle gave Xinxin will never bite, as long as Xinxin doesn't bully it. If it is really disobedient and wants to bite, Then Xinxin will beat it."

"Okay, thank you uncle. Xinxin doesn't bully people or puppies, but if it bites Xinxin, beat it, Xinxin can do it now."

"Yes, Xinxin is very good at fighting now, and will be even better in the future. Xinxin will definitely become a peerless master like your grandfather in the future."

Xinxin nodded firmly: "Well, Xinxin will do it. Xinxin will protect grandpa in the future."

Ji Xinghe's bad mood suddenly changed, and he asked aloud, "Xiao Su, how long will you be shooting?"

"It doesn't take long to shoot, just some material, including you and the dust storm." Su He got up and said, "Old Ji, what are you doing? The traffic is affected. Those mechas that were damaged in the war zone can't be delivered. There is no mecha area. How many armors need to be repaired?"

"There is no need to repair the mecha, but we can't be idle either. Master Liu and the others are making a mecha." Ji Xinghe looked at Xinxin who said he wanted to protect him, and said softly, "I also want to try to build a mecha."

Su He was shocked: "Do you really want to make old man music?"

"It's Old Man Le, but it's not Old Man Le." Ji Xinghe corrected, "Xin Xin helped to choose a name."

"What name? No, it's not about the name, it's..." Ji Xinghe knew the reason why Su He couldn't tell.

Xinxin didn't know the reason, so she answered for Ji Xinghe.

"Grandpa's mech is called Xingyue. It's Ji Rong Xinyue's moon, but it's not Ji Rong Xinyue's Xin. Uncle guess, which star is the star?"

Su He knelt down and looked at Xinxin's expectant eyes, and shook his head: "Uncle doesn't know, can Xinxin tell uncle?"

Xinxin smiled: "When grandpa makes Xingyue, Xinxin will tell uncle."

"Okay, it's a deal."

"Pull the hook."

Chapter 074 You Can Really Pretend, Old Ji

Many people in the No. [-] base had to take a vacation due to the dust storm, such as the doctors and nurses in the medical area. Many wounded could not be transported to the base for treatment due to traffic jams, so this kind of vacation was not for them. It is not easy, the fatigue caused by inner worries far exceeds the exhaustion caused by physical labor.

"Grandpa, Xinxin has gone to class, Xinxin will be very good, don't worry, grandpa, let's go make Xingyue."

"Okay, grandpa will pick up Xinxin during dinner."

The doctors and nurses are not idle, they don't want to be idle, so they are doing what they can.For example, helping out in the planting area, cleaning in the mech area or even carrying some heavy objects, or teaching the only children in Base No. [-] to learn knowledge.So Xinxin started to go to school. According to the current estimate, she has two to three months of study time.This is not the first time, so Xinxin is very used to it.

Ji Xinghe was suddenly not used to it, because Xinxin had been by his side these days, watching him repair mechas, teach fighting, and practice kung fu while he was studying.

Ji Xinghe easily controlled this small emotional problem, and quickly came to the mecha area.The mecha area was still busy when the dust storm happened. After there were not so many mechas to be repaired, these professional mechanics did not stop, but chose to start making mechas.

Most of the federation's mechs are manufactured on the blue star, because it is difficult to reach the industrial level of the blue star on the alien star. It can be said that the mecha is the crystallization of the highest mechanical technology of the federation, and its structure is very complicated. However, it is impossible to build production lines on alien planets for all kinds of parts and components needed. The uncontrollable cost and the risk of being captured by the empire at any time are too great.

The mecha maintenance area of ​​base No. [-] was able to manufacture mechas because the federation had already considered the impact of the dust storm and shipped the corresponding materials in advance. The production line of base No. [-] has been producing corresponding parts, which is also a part of many maintenance projects. Obviously, the robotic arm can be done in a few minutes, but it takes a long time to queue up, and the reason why it needs a master like Ji Xinghe to repair it manually.

These spare parts, which should have been used as spare parts, were directly used to build brand-new standard mechas when the dust storm occurred, so in a sense, mechanics like Master Liu and the others were not making mechas anymore. Instead, they are assembling the armor.

"Old Ji, come and join our group. With the addition of you, an eighth-level fitter, our assembly efficiency can be increased by at least 10%."

"Don't go to their group, Lao Ji, come to our side, I give higher contribution points than him."

"Fuck your mother, you mean I've been short of public funds and wronged Lao Ji?"

"Hey, I didn't say it, you said it yourself, you don't ask yourself."

"I'll go to you..."

Ji Xinghe has become a celebrity in the No. [-] base, and can even be said to be the most famous person. The program "The Old Man and the Stars and the Sea" has not been broadcast on Alien for the time being, but the story of Ji Xinghe has been broadcast by the people of the No. [-] base. Familiar with it, many people in Base No. [-] also know about it.

Among other things, the first time a mechanic drove a mecha out of the base, he got three gold stars and saved a first-level mecha fighter, or two or three first-level mecha fighters. , This is simply the hero of the novel.

The lame man and another first-level mecha fighter who was going to carry out the task of "searching and rescuing Li Lin" really couldn't guarantee a complete victory in a three-on-three match. After all, the strength of the lame man and the blind man was damaged due to injuries.

Coupled with Ji Xinghe's hard work, serious attitude towards learning, and a mechanical daily routine that seems tireless, many people can see it in their eyes. Who can not praise in their hearts that they are growing old and strong?

"Old man, old man, come here quickly."

Second Lieutenant Shen Mu's voice made other people dispel the idea of ​​vying for Ji Xinghe to join their respective working groups, because there is a saying in the mecha area: Ji Xinghe is the teacher of more than 600 mecha fighters, and I, Shen Mu, are Ji Xinghe. Galaxy's teacher.

No need to ask, this sentence must have been said by Shen Mu himself, but no one has ever questioned this sentence, because Ji Xinghe does often learn knowledge related to mecha maintenance from Shen Mu.However, there was another word in this sentence that was automatically ignored by everyone: I, Shen Mu, am Ji Xinghe's only teacher.

Who hasn't taught Lao Ji yet?You teach a lot and you are the only one?The professional mechanics in the mecha area dare not call themselves Ji Xinghe's teacher, but they deducted the only one in Shen Mu's sentence.

"This one is ready, hurry up and help me try it."

Shen Mu couldn't wait to point to a mecha in the operating area. This is a No. 30 generation standard mecha of the Federation. Almost all the new-made mechas are standard mechas after the 26th generation, because from the No. 20 sixth generation At the beginning, the Federation's standard mechs had a significant improvement in performance.The earlier standard mechas were not eliminated because they were still usable, or because the Federation was poor.

"it is good."

Ji Xinghe began to penetrate armor, and it is more appropriate to describe it as entering the cockpit, but the Federation generally used to call it armor penetration.

Whether it is the No.16-generation standard mecha or this No.30-generation standard mecha, Ji Xinghe has already learned how to drive, and his mecha driving qualification certificate has changed from level three to level two. The biggest difference between them is not that there are three more gold stars, but that he has learned the driving methods of all federal mechas, which is similar to the difference between the A license and the C license in the car driver's license on the Azure Star.

Compared with the previous mecha driven by Ji Xinghe, this mecha is smaller in size, with a height of only 4 meters, and a much slender figure in comparison. , so that the weight of this mecha is only 2 tons, which is about the same weight as some cars.

After piercing the armor, Ji Xinghe was not used to it, because the mecha was too tall and short. Ji Xinghe, who was in the torso of the mecha, had only his hands that could extend into the arms of the mecha, and only his feet. Extending into the legs of the mech, the arms and legs feel shy in the relatively small cockpit, and his hands are long and his feet are long.

However, this does not affect the operation, because this mecha does not capture the driver's movements and then completely simulate them. The joysticks, pedals, voice, brain wave sensing devices, etc. are used to operate this mecha and almost all federal standard machines. A correct way of operation.

Ji Xinghe's operation became more and more proficient, and the actual machine test was completed soon. The system test passed, but he put forward his own opinions after removing the armor.

"There seems to be a small problem with the right leg."

"Small problems? There are no small problems, any problems are big problems." Shen Mu asked nervously: "How to say specifically?"

"I can't say exactly." Ji Xinghe asked, "Can you remove the right leg first? Let me see."

"it is good."

Shen Mu believed in Ji Xinghe very much, which made his mechanics also believe in Ji Xinghe, so everyone started dismantling after the system test passed, and soon the outer armor of the right leg of the mecha was completely dismantled It was undone, revealing the mechanical structure inside.

But Ji Xinghe did not study the right leg of the mecha, but looked at the outer protective armor, reached out to pick it up, weighed it, and said: "Bring a hammer here."

Shen Mu looked at the protective armor weighing fifty kilograms, and was lifted lightly by Ji Xinghe like a plastic shell, swallowing his saliva.

"Sledge hammer or small hammer?"

"Little hammer."

"Ok."

Then there were a few bangs and bangs, and it seemed that the protective armor hadn't changed in any way, not even scratches.

"Put it on."
