The male worm wants to be a variety show

Unknowingly, the sky has already brightened.

The cubs were still talking about sex, but they heard a yell from a distance: "Hey—are you guys here——" the little female let out a sigh of relief: "Uncle Peter came to find us!"

The two cubs happily pushed open the window and waved.But Qiao Ruiqing couldn't help feeling nervous, packed up the camera with hands tied, and whispered, "Go back quickly, I'll wait..."

The little female turned her head to look at him apologetically, and said, "I, I'll help you talk!" As she spoke, she ran up the snow slope, unable to hold her back.

Qiao Ruiqing didn't want to face the accusing look of his former compatriots, and wanted to escape but stood where he was, his legs and feet seemed to be frozen.From far away came the yelling of the young female insects, and the echoing voice of the adult insects; some insects shouted loudly: "Thank God! You two daredevils are fine..."

The sound was getting closer. "Brother Arnold and Brother Joe? They saved us..." the little female said.

Qiao Ruiqing heard good-natured laughter.

The old bug with a lantern appeared on the top of the snow slope, panting and wiping the sweat from his forehead.Seeing Qiao Ruiqing and A Nuo, he smiled even more heartily, and put his hands together in the shape of a trumpet: "We—the old guys who are still young—have dealt with these stinky soldiers who came out to arrest people—"

The sound of the wind swallowed the rest of his words.But that's okay, a few spiky kids rushed down the slope, laughing and shouting, "We heard you escaped the barracks! Haha, that's cool!"

Uncle Peter finally moved in front of Qiao Ruiqing, and opened his arms to show his embrace: "Welcome home. The child has suffered all these years... We owe you an apology."

Seeing that the second monk Qiao Rui Qingzhang was puzzled, a bug explained: "We turned over a few so-called 'escort team' military females, and let them tell the truth about recent events."

The few worms who showed repulsion before came out to apologize with red faces, and lowered their heads to force some candies into Qiao Ruiqing's hands; some worms shouted: "I've always said it! Joe will always be Joe! Just come back, Is the shop still open boss?"

Qiao Ruiqing saw more and more worms.Tall and short, fat and thin, old and young, healthy or on crutches, and Qiao Ruiqing still familiar with a few former regulars of the tavern - a dark crowd, but they appeared with the light.

Dawn was breaking, and the golden sun turned the dark shadows in the snow into light.

Dazed, Qiao Ruiqing followed the army back to the most familiar and warmest place.his tavern.

Now it seems that this place has become the base camp of the left-behind Zerg.The original small wine table was put aside, leaving a large space for fluffy futons and even small bedding.A little worm explained in a low voice: "We stay here at night, sleep when we are sleepy, and chat when we are not sleepy."

Uncle Peter is making hot water to warm his body, directing a group of radish diced around; there are also old bugs humming happy songs, busy in front of the pot—yes, there is a big pot where Qiao Ruiqing put the counter before , is bustling with steam.Arnold joined in with cheers, and soon joined the "Kitchen Sonata" team, becoming the soul of the band.

Many old bugs raised their hats to Qiao Ruiqing and whistled "Welcome home".Everything looked naturally familiar, as if the previous cold reception did not exist at all——

But Qiao Ruiqing was confused.

"Excuse me for interrupting, can anyone tell me what's going on now...?" He asked slightly raising his voice.

Uncle Peter looked over, looked a little serious, and handed over the work to the other insects: "Come here, come here, I will tell you slowly."

So, in the steaming hut, in a happy and peaceful atmosphere, Uncle Peter slowly opened up his chatter box.

"At that time, the all-round recruitment began, and all the young and strong laborers were taken to the military camp. The old guys could barely support themselves, but the young ones were pitiful. I took the lead and gathered the young ones who were wandering around and shivering with the cold. Get up, let's watch and help each other, and discuss life together."

"As for this location...ah, you don't know, Aurora is a landmark-like place, and it almost has some kind of symbolic meaning in Desolate Star. Of course we all agree to set up the base camp here—"Where the Aurora is" Well, the light in the long polar night..."

Uncle Peter's posture of having a long talk made Qiao Ruiqing anxious.Not to mention the sudden change of attitude, and the more urgent situation of the imperial convoy, this makes Chong not in the mood to listen to the story!

Seeing Qiao Ruiqing's torment, Uncle Peter stroked his beard and smiled and said, "This is the first important thing I want to tell you. We have never believed the rumors from the outside world; the brat is ignorant and is During the rebellious period, the old guy can't control them, alas."

"Ah, and before the empire only said that there were big worms coming to inspect, there were not many worms who knew that it was you." He raised his hand shyly to touch his shiny head, and smiled naively, "Otherwise we wouldn't Like this. There are always worms waiting for you to go home."

One sentence made Qiao Ruiqing's nose sore.Uncle Peter over there continued to babble: "Fortunately, the barracks came later and said that some criminals hid your Excellency the male—ah, it's you. They were all arrogant, huh! When my old man really Is it useless to be old? Back then, I was also a flirt who waved a stick on the street to lead the coquettish... I will clean them up right away. The truth that comes out of their mouths can make the little bastards speechless ,hey-hey."

The self-boasting tail is exposed again, and the little female insect is really like her uncle.The passing worms hissed and dismantled the stage loudly: "Just your old body! Joe, don't believe it. Of course, it was a victory won by a large group of us, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, by bullying more and less."

Uncle Peter squinted his eyes and blew his beard, and drove the worm to work hard, but turned his head and put on the most serious expression: "About the army females in the empire. First of all, I want to ask you, what are your plans for escaping?" No?"

This one does.Qiao Ruiqing replied: "In fact, I haven't made a particularly detailed plan. This time... I did have some impulses. But I have a general direction, and I plan... to make my own film. Send out the real life of the starless star "He still felt a little ashamed when he said that, worried that his unilateral decision might not be what the Zergs of Desolate Star wanted.

What's more, will it be offensive?

Fortunately, Uncle Peter's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and his eyes widened a little: "This is great! You don't know how hard we tried to make a little noise—we lost our temper after being deleted on Xingwang."

Qiao Ruiqing breathed a sigh of relief: "I should do it. But the imperial escort team...?"

Uncle Peter slapped his chest with a fan-like palm: "We will help you! They may be well-equipped and young and strong, but we have a lot of insects! Coupled with the fact that we are more familiar with the geographical environment, we will always I am also sure to delay them for ten days and a half months."

How can this work!Qiao Ruiqing repeatedly objected: "This will drag you into trouble, no—"

"What else can we do, anyway, we are already deserted people." Uncle Peter shrugged, with a hint of ruffianism unique to the star bug on his face.He raised his voice: "Hey! Anyone want to play guerrilla warfare!"

Shu Lala responded enthusiastically, and the tavern was as noisy as a vegetable market in an instant.Qiao Ruiqing's voice was drowned in laughter and cheers: "Wait, what happened after that? I may not have the strength to protect all of you..."

"Then run away!" A burst of laughter erupted from the swarm, "It's not like the whole universe belongs to his empire. Xianxin can't catch us one by one!"

"We want to do something for you too," they said.

Qiao Ruiqing actually felt familiar with the enthusiasm that rushed to his face.It was completely opposite to the Xiao Se he met on the road, so it was like the... desolate star in his memory.A steamy place.

Arnold came through the swarm and was the first to boo: "Guerrilla! Street fighting! What are you doing here with Joe, suddenly playing such a big game?"

"Let's go kill the stinky idiots who overthrew the military camp!" A bug next to him raised his arms and shouted.

"Go to his uncle's war!" The shouts merged into a river of voices.

Now Qiao Ruiqing believed that the essence of the Zerg was booing—at least the Desolate Star Zerg.Even he himself felt his blood boil amidst the cheers.

Arnold has been paying attention to Joe's expression, keenly discovering the eagerness hidden in the other's eyes, and finally let go of his half-suspended heart.This meeting, Joe has been gloomy and depressed, which should not be his original appearance.

That's really welcome back, Joe.Arnold couldn't control the corners of his mouth that rose.

"That's it?" he said cheerfully.

Qiao Ruiqing nodded noncommittally, and then emphasized: "The materials and tools used for escape are more important, and this should be the first priority. Remember?"

"Hey guys! Rest up and get ready, let's go when the sun is bright—" Uncle Peter yelled.

Arnold led the wave of the old, weak, sick and disabled to search for usable weapons, while Qiao Ruiqing was surrounded by chattering brats.

"Brother said you played a very fun game..." a big-eyed worm cub said in a childish voice.

The little female worm added: "It's a storytelling game!"

"Okay, okay, stop for a while. The sun is not fully up yet, and it's still time for the little bugs to sleep. Huh? Go to sleep, go to sleep, and don't pester you brother Joe." Uncle Peter leaned over and pretended Rebuke.

"That's a bedtime story!" The little female was proud of her favor, "It's just your turn to tell it, so don't run away."

There are also Xiao Chong who are sleepy, lying on the small bedding or hugging a small futon, half burying their faces in it, only showing a pair of eyes that are struggling to open.

Qiao Ruiqing likes this.In the severe cold and devastation of the desolate star, only this tavern is... normal.

He also has stories to tell.Qiao Ruiqing recalled the way Arnold walked out of the tavern just now—the strides were big and hasty, his feet kicked and pedaled like a big child; before going out, he looked back, his eyes were as confident and sharp as an eagle, and he felt that The ends of the eyes seem to have hooks.

He felt some indescribable, light, swelling hunger or thirst in his heart, wanting to be closer, or even a little touch would suffice.

He...he wanted to throw in the towel.

"Then, a bedtime story." Qiao Ruiqing cleared his throat, "Once upon a time there was a little Zerg who lived in a happy family. Both his male father and female father lived with him (speaking of which, all the little bug cubs all said An envious 'wow'), and love him so much. The male and female fathers hope that he can become a powerful and powerful insect, and they will do anything for it-they would rather eat the bran swallowing vegetables themselves than give the best to the little Zerg , once sold the house to pay for his schooling, and the female father even gave up his job (here again a wave of unbelievable amazement).”

"When the little Zerg grew up, he also met a partner who was very good to him. That bug gave him his heart and soul, and let him get whatever he wanted... The little Zerg is the happiest bug in the world."

The worm cubs gasped one after another: "Oh my god, I really hope that such good luck can also befall me."

Qiao Ruiqing blinked: "The little Zerg is so lucky, of course he has to become the best bug in the world. But unfortunately, he is mediocre, no matter how hard he works, he is not good enough, and he can't pay off such a big kindness; the more he owes, the more he owes, He's starting to get tired."

"Love is a burden to him. He is calculating other people every second...I'm sorry, how much others have invested in him, whether they can return their capital, and whether they will make a profit-this makes him a hundred thousand anxiety. His His temper is also strange, and he can't learn to accept unconditional love. So he turned into a bad guy, always causing harm to the bugs who love him."

The little boys listened ignorantly, shaking and nodding their heads.

Qiao Ruiqing touched their little heads one by one, and said softly: "But recently he plans to try to change himself. I wish him success from being a bad guy to a less bad guy, and then, good night."

Good night, little bug cubs, Qiao Ruiqing has to go out before the big troops.How can he really feel at ease to let the females of Desolate Star take this risk?Qiao Ruiqing walked back to the barracks in the weak sunlight. Although the wind and snow were blowing his bones, his mood was completely different from when he came. The long road seemed to end in a blink of an eye.

If they were discovered, the military camp in the early morning was like an ant's nest, the solemn military females hurried back and forth, and the order was short and loud.Qiao Ruiqing squatted on the high ground and stared for a long time, then slowly took off her restraining bracelet.

He seldom—or almost never—deliberately used male orders, and he always felt that this method of humiliating insects was inappropriate.

Why.At least he'll keep it.

"Listen to my instructions." Qiao Ruiqing said softly in a gentle voice, calmly looking at the chaos in the barracks below.The worm with the appearance of a military officer locked onto his position almost immediately, struggling to shout: "Your Excellency Qiao Ruiqing! This is an order from Your Excellency Sigmund... It is illegal to use the male worm command on a military female who has orders... "

Qiao Ruiqing was unmoved.This is the case, as long as a certain male insect really wants to do something, no amount of female insects can stop it; therefore, the existence of the escort team is more deterrent than practical effect-of course, it is more controlled by controlling the old, weak, sick and disabled in the deserted star Qiao Ruiqing.

Besides, there are still cameras.Sigmund believed that Qiao Ruiqing would not use the male command on irrelevant insects, which was a kind of moral kidnapping.

Chick, Qiao Ruiqing thought.

"Packing. Gathering. Boarding the ship. Go back wherever you came from."
