Rubik’s Cube Heavens

Vol 8 Chapter 10: haze

noon.

It was a lunch that shocked the two little bean dices, Melo and Craig.

It's not that they were shocked by the delicious food, but that Yu Wei and Bao Bao lived a luxurious life of three meals a day!

In the old days, Melo and Craig would just find something to eat in the morning and get through the day more or less.

Only rarely do they have a second meal of the day.

Therefore, the two little Doudings are extremely envious of Wei and Baobao's life.

As a result, they couldn't help but have the same idea of ​​wanting to be adopted by Ke Wen.

However, in their eyes, Kewen is a serious and indifferent person to them, not as gentle as Van der to them.

The two little bean dings had no choice but to completely bury that delusion deeply.

After lunch, after packing up, Ke Wen continued to work with four little bean dices.

The space on the second floor is not enough for the stairs, and the straight ladder is too dangerous for the explosive age, so Cowen chose to break a hole in the wall of the second floor and erect a metal staircase outside.

For these tasks, there are less than four little Doudings to help.

Without their dragging, Kewen can also work at full power.

So it only took him half an hour to install a very stable staircase on the outside of the second floor.

The stairs lead to the preset third floor, and the work after that is to move the building materials.

Ke Wen set up a pulley block for the four little bean dings on the roof, and Wei Lai, who was the strongest, pulled the pulley, while the other three little bean dings put bricks and other small building materials into the net frame.

After transporting some of the materials, Ke Wen used his hands slightly on the roof, and tore off the cover of a metal bucket with a 'creak' sound.

The bucket is filled with alchemy gel, which is much more suitable than cement. The only disadvantage is that it smells bad.

But there is a way to solve this, just add money.

Alchemists have developed another alchemy fragrance for a long time, but if there are some conditions, they will start with the fragrance when purchasing the gel.

Kewen is naturally not short of money.

Right now, he is holding a tube of alchemy fragrance, unscrewing the cork and pouring the fragrance into the gel barrel.

After stirring for a while with a wooden stick, Ke Wen spread the gel on the roof like cement.

Bricks were pressed tightly on top of the gel by Kewen, and he began to add a third floor to the house.

I don't know how long, two cheers suddenly sounded from below.

Ke Wen looked on the roof and found that Van der had finally appeared and returned.

Merrow and Clegg had already rushed to Vander's feet, while Vander was bending down to apologize to the two little bean dings.

Ke Wen took a look at Van der's body, and found that the other party's temperament became more depressed.

That is the temperament that will only appear after a huge blow.

At the same time, Cowen found several hidden bandages on Vander's body.

The chest area was wrapped around a few times, and the same was true on the wrist, and it was the temuscle that was injured.

Seeing this, Ke Wen casually greeted him on the roof: "Are you all right? All resolved?"

Van der raised his head, and he forced a smile at Cowen: "It's all settled, thanks buddy, for allowing you to take care of them for so long."

Ke Wen waved the triangular shovel used to apply the gel to indicate that it's okay.

Van der didn't mean to talk too much.

He lowered his head again, and slowly raised his hand to rub the tops of Milo and Craig's heads.

The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, and Van der hid his painful expression, and then said softly: "Come on, please help here, and go back to the bar at night."

"Yeah!" Melo and Craig nodded happily.

Van der smiled benevolently, then nodded to Cowen on the roof, then turned around and walked towards the bar with some staggering steps.

Ke Wen looked at the back of the other party, then he looked away, and greeted the four little bean dings below: "Go on, speed up the delivery of materials, and remember to tell me when you are tired."

"Not tired!"

Wei arched his biceps and patted it confidently: "My strength is enough!"

"But you have to be considerate of others." Ke Wen raised his head to educate Wei below: "I have taught you before, and the following words are similar. What you can do, other people may not be able to do the same. Wei , you have to clarify your own situation and other people's situation."

Hearing this, Wei turned his head to look at Baobo and the other two Xiaodoudings.

She nodded slightly in amazement: "I see."

Ke Wen showed a satisfied smile, he said no more, and retracted his head to continue the construction work.

Before I knew it, it was evening.

Although Melo and Craig always had to rest for half an hour after working for half an hour, Corwen still gave them five copper gears each as a reward.

After seeing off the two happy little Doudings, Kewen entered the kitchen and began to prepare dinner for Wei and Baobao.

After three days like this, Kewen finally finished building the studio on the third floor and the study in the attic on the fourth floor.

Without the drag of the four little bean dings, Kewen could have completed the project earlier.

But he didn't do that. Instead, he chose to let Wei and Baobao experience what is called participation.

It turned out that the two little girls were proud to have a hand in building it.

So much so that they prefer the floors they built with their own hands, and asked Cowen to move to the attic on the fourth floor.

Naturally, Kewen would not refuse, so he helped them move their things to the fourth floor, and repainted the attic, making the attic full of the warmth of a bedroom.

The original bedroom on the second floor was converted into a study by Kewen.

Although the remodeled study room looked very small, and there was only one set of tables and chairs in addition to the bookshelves, it was enough.

Kewen doesn't need to do research in the study for a long time, he only needs to read the books he bought once.

After being captured with a photographic memory, those books have no value.

Of course, those books can still be kept for Wei and Baobao to study and use in the future.

On the evening of the completion, Ke Wen prepared a sumptuous dinner as a celebration.

Just about to start eating, there was a sudden shout outside.

"The gray fog is coming—the gray fog is coming—"

"not good!"

Wei let out a low cry first, and then slapped the table depressedly: "Why did the gray mist come at this time?! We were just about to celebrate!"

After complaining, Wei immediately greeted: "Boom! Follow me upstairs to close the windows!"

While getting up from the chair, Wei urged Kewen again: "The windows on the first and second floors will be handed over to you! Be sure to close them properly, and then use something to block the gaps! Otherwise, the house will be destroyed by dust tomorrow." Buried!"

Ke Wen couldn't imagine the power of the gray fog, because he had never experienced it before.

However, this did not delay his response.

So Ke Wen got up and nodded: "Go, leave the downstairs to me."

Wei said no more.

She reluctantly glanced at the sumptuous meal, and then ran upstairs holding her explosive little hand.

Ke Wen also got up and walked to the second floor, closed all the doors and windows, and found some rags and tore them into strips to seal the gaps.

Then he came to the first floor.

Just as he was about to continue, the door was knocked twice and pushed open.

With the crisp sound of the doorbell, Fandre's strong body walked into the room.

After seeing the cloth strip in Ke Wen's hand, Fandre showed a reassuring smile: "It seems that you already know how to deal with it."

"Did you come here to remind me?"

Ke Wen walked to the kitchen, and at the same time turned his back to Vander and said, "Thanks, but don't you need to care about the bar?"

Fander followed up and said with a smile: "It's okay, every time there is a gray fog warning, some homeless people will go to my place to hide, and they will seal the doors and windows for me."

While talking, the two walked into the kitchen together.

Fandre found a few rags by himself, and seeing that Ke Wen had already gone to seal the gap in the window, he went to the exhaust fan to help seal it.

"Can you tell me about the gray fog warning?" Ke Wen asked while stuffing a cloth strip in the window: "How often will it appear?"

"Usually around three months."

Fandre replied: "All kinds of waste gas in the bottom city gradually increased. After the accumulation increased, it merged with the layer of industrial waste gas above the crack, and made the layer of industrial waste gas aggravated and buried."

"The fused exhaust gas will be integrated into various sewage, which will reduce the pollution level of the bottom city afterward, so that the cycle continues."

Ke Wen nodded clearly, but asked strangely: "Three months? But I have lived here for more than half a year, why didn't I show up before?"

Fandre paused.

Then he continued to block the smoke exhaust fan, and at the same time whispered: "It was because of the previous mistake. After that incident, many workshops stopped working to wait for the fulfillment of the contract in the upper city. Most people are waiting for the upper city. The city's new regulations, I want to make business adjustments after getting the new regulations..."

Cowen was stunned.

He nodded slightly and said, "It turned out that because of the shutdown, the exhaust emissions for a period of time decreased, which finally slowed down the arrival time of the gray fog warning."

"Hmm." Vander replied in a low tone.

Cowen didn't make a sound either.

The two quickly finished the kitchen and returned to the hall.

Not long after, the hall on the first floor was also processed.

"Thanks." Ke Wen finally said aloud to Van der.

Van der just raised the corners of his mouth, and then asked, "Have you decided on your future business? Why don't you tell me, I can introduce you to some clients."

"Let's fix it." Cowen responded, "I plan to open a repair shop with no business scope."

"As for introducing business, there is no need."

He shook his head slightly again: "My savings are enough to support Da Wei and Bang Bang, so I can do whatever I want to do. I opened this store just to make Wei and Bang Bang not be treated differently."

Hearing this, Van der was stunned for a moment and showed a sudden look.

He didn't persuade more.

Glancing outside the house, he found that the green poisonous haze had begun to be gradually covered by the gray haze, so Van der bid farewell.

When he reached the door, he stopped again, and turned back to invite Ke Wen: "Go to the bar if you have time, I will introduce you to a few guys, and I can have one more person to help you in the future."

Ke Wen thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay."

"Oh, that's right." Fandre added a reminder: "When you sleep at night, remember to cover your mouth and nose with a cloth strip."

After speaking, he gave Ke Wen a friendly smile, then opened the door and walked out.

The door was quickly closed, but some haze still poured in.

Ke Wen raised his hand and slapped it in front of him, glanced through the window at Vander's back that was going away and covered by gray fog, and then he turned and walked upstairs.

Wei and Baobao's movements are a bit slow, after all, they are still young.

But they were very smart to start sealing from the attic on the fourth floor, sealing their bedrooms first, and then started to deal with the third floor.

Ke Wen helped the two little girls clean up the third floor. When they returned to the kitchen together, the sumptuous meal on the table had already been covered with a layer of dust.

"Really..."

Wei sighed: "It's still too late, it's a waste."

After finishing speaking, she looked down at Baobo, touched the other person's little head and said, "Be good, Baobao, let's go hungry tonight, it's no big deal, it's just like the past, you know?"

"Yeah." Baobo nodded obediently.

Looking at the two sensible little girls, Ke Wen smiled.

Thinking of something, he said hello: "Come on, let's go to the studio on the third floor."

The two little girls had no doubts, and obediently followed Ke Wen upstairs.

On the third floor, Ke Wen found a piece of wood, and used a gear cutting machine to cut the wood into one-centimeter-thick wood chips.

Then he found another one-meter-square plank.

He took out three marker pens from the pen container, and gave one to Wei and Baobao, and then Ke Wen hugged Baobao.

He put the little **** the long work table, and called Wei to sit down.

"Next follow me."

Ke Wen placed the large wooden board in front of him, and raised the marker pen.

Wei and Baobo didn't understand, but they also placed the two small pieces of wood in front of each other.

"Come on, follow me to draw."

Ke Wen lowered the marker pen and slowly drew an arc on the wooden board.

Wei and Baobo do as they say.

Next, Kewen taught slowly, and finally he drew a bird with wings spread on the wooden board in front of him with a marker.

Wei's ability to imitate is strong. Although the proportion of the wind bird she drew seems a bit out of balance, the appearance of the wind bird is not out of shape.

As for the explosive paintings, they are completely abstract.

However, the wind bird painted by Baobo is not ugly, but has an alternative childlike artistic sense.

Ke Wen didn't correct them, but just smiled and changed three fluorescent markers.

Then the three of them painted the wind bird in blue with colored pencils~www.wuxiaspot.com~What is this? "

After finishing, Wei finally couldn't help asking: "Why do we draw this kind of bird?"

"This is the magical thing that allows you to keep breathing normally in the haze."

Kewen got up, and after responding, he called Wei and Baobao to walk towards the grinder together.

Cowen took over the rest of the work alone.

He first sanded Wei and Bobo's paintings into small talismans along the edges of the paintings, before sanding his own large board.

After polishing, Ke Wen engraved the words 'repair shop' on it with a carving pen.

In this way, the plaque of his store has completed the preliminary preparations, and it will be fine to add lighting decorations to it later...
