"Yes."
Chen Xing sold Zhao Ruoxi naturally. Compared to Nova, whom she has known for a long time, the seventh princess of Qing Kingdom, whom she has known for less than an hour, is not trustworthy at all.
Moreover, what the other party proposed was unrealistic. Trying to take things away under Nova's supervision without being noticed was tantamount to fishing for the moon in the water.
What's more, he couldn't tell whether it was Zhao Ruoxi or Nova who was pretending to test him. Rather than taking risks, show your cards straight and tell the truth, or in the worst case, turn around and run away.
"I have guessed her intention. But her efforts are in vain. Even if the heart is retrieved, she cannot go back to the past. The changes in the body are irreversible. Once the mechanical heart is lost, the body will collapse," Nova said .
"I can give you that heart, but you can't give it to Zhao Ruoxi. Just use it to threaten her." Nova said.
For some reason, Chen Xing wanted to laugh. It feels so wonderful to take the initiative to hand over your control to a man and let him threaten you.
"Where's the thing you said you wanted to give me?" Chen Xing reached out to ask for it.
"Put it in a small alien space and let Zhao Ruoxi bring it to you later," Nova said.
"Can't you take it?" Chen Xing asked doubtfully.
"I can only use the power of steam, but I can't open a different space."
Nova's answer was very candid and she did not hide anything from Chen Xing, which made Chen Xing feel better.
Chen Xing used a tong to clean the steel plate used for roasting meat, poured a thin layer of oil on it again, and then covered it with snowflake beef.
After a while, the beef was cooked, Chen Xing wrapped it in vegetables and delivered it to Nova. The latter naturally picked up the fork next to him, picked up the vegetable roll, and ate it in small bites.
After eating, Nova put down her chopsticks, wiped her lips with a handkerchief, and took a sip of tea.
Xing observed carefully. Although he could not rule out the possibility that Nova was disguised as two personalities, judging from a series of actions and details, the difference between the two personalities was still very obvious.
Zhao Ruoxi used chopsticks, and Nova used a fork.
Zhao Ruoxi's eating movements are very elegant, while Nova's movements are very small and very efficient.
He also discovered that Zhao Ruoxi made the tea, but she never took a sip. Maybe it was prepared for Nova.
This was a subconscious habit and action that was difficult to disguise. Chen Xing believed it at least 70-80%.
"How do you feel about eating?" Chen Xing asked with interest. He was curious as to whether Nova, as a mechanical being, had feelings similar to those of humans.
"When I was charging in the past, when the electric current surged into my body, I would feel full and happy. Now when I eat, I will feel the same way," Nova replied.
"Enrichment and pleasure?" Chen Xing repeated subconsciously. This description sounded like there was an indescribable feeling...
"Well, that's the feeling, the feeling of the body being filled and the emptiness being filled." Nova said more accurately.
Chen Xing couldn't help but be curious. Besides eating, what was the other feeling like?
However, not everyone dares to support the seventh princess of the Qing Kingdom.
The Shanling Legion ranks twelfth among the top legions in the world, and Zhao Yuankai's strength is by no means unworthy of its fame.
"Would you like to try this?" Chen Xing pushed a plate of red and white side dishes over. This is the Chinese cabbage pickled with chili pepper that is most commonly eaten by Qingguo people. There are few products in mountainous areas and the environment is difficult. For thousands of years, people in Qingguo have liked to pickle this kind of Chinese cabbage. Because it is soaked in a vat and sealed for fermentation, it is also called "pickle".
"This is too sour." Nova shook her head and refused.
"What about this one?" "It's too sweet." "What about this one?" "This one is okay. You can eat some."
Chen Xing asked about seven or eight side dishes in a row and found that Nova didn't like eating spicy food, which was probably related to Zhao Ruoxi's eating habits.
"Are you studying me?" Nova asked.
"Haha..." Chen Xing saw through, smiled awkwardly, and continued to cook meat.
After more than an hour, they were full, Chen Xing paid the bill, and they left the shop.
"Where to go?" Chen Xing asked. He still had to wait for Zhao Ruoxi to wake up, and then ask her for something.
"Let's take a walk around the city. I rarely get out." Nova said.
Walking onto the street, the lights are on, and the number of Danjin people wearing loose "mountain clothes" gradually increases.
This is a unique costume of the Qing Kingdom. The sleeves are particularly wide, a cloth strip is tied around the waist, and the dragon, phoenix, sun and moon are embroidered on the back. The colors are bright and colorful.
Mountain clothes are somewhat similar to Ying people's clothes, except that the sleeves of Ying clothes are not as long, and the patterns on the clothes are mostly koi waves or spring breeze cherry blossoms.
The main races of Qing Country are blue-blooded people, immigrants from the Eastern Continent, and Ying people. Its cultural atmosphere is very close to that of the Eastern Continent, but it has its own characteristics. It is the sacred mountain culture that combines the culture of the Gaoshan clan, the culture of the Eastern Continent and the culture of the Ying people.
Most of the blue-blooded people in the Qing Kingdom are nobles, and their main surnames are Zhao, Shen, Lin, Ye, and Jin. The pupils of blue-blooded people will only appear dark blue under strong light. On the surface, there is no difference between them and ordinary people. They just look relatively weak, so most of the time they rely on the black meter data to judge.
Zhao Ruoxi is a typical blue-blooded person, with a pale complexion, a soft and boneless body, and a slender waist that can be held, showing her frail beauty.
Crossing the street, the two came to a lake in a park and walked quietly on the path beside the lake.
There are lit water lanterns floating on the lake, which is leisurely and comfortable.
Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was very comfortable. Sometimes men like lively girls, sometimes they like quiet girls, so it’s better to find a few more...
"Are you cold?" Looking at the thin body in front of him, Chen Xing couldn't help but ask. Qing Country is located in the temperate zone, further south than Red Country, but the mountains are high and the water is cold, making it chilly at night.
"It's not cold." Nova held Chen Xing's hand, and astonishing heat spread through it, like holding a hot water bottle. "As long as the steam furnace is still burning, the heat will continue to flow."
A pair of big eyes looked directly at him, with bright stars. Chen Xing felt a little uncomfortable and changed the subject, "How about it, are you still used to human life?"
"It's pretty good." Nova nodded gently, "It's better than I imagined."
"That's good, that's good..." The scene when the two met for the first time appeared in Chen Xing's eyes. The dark basement, the cold wires and pipes, the wreckage suspended in the air by chains, and the prisoners buried under the abyss.
His heart moved and he sighed, "Everything is over..."
"As long as you live well, I'll be relieved."
"Human men always like to tell nice lies to women, but I'm really happy that you can tell me this." Nova smiled, as if the ice and snow were melting, making people feel warm.
"My time is almost up." Nova nodded slightly towards him, "Thank you for coming to see me."
Then she closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, her eyes were a little more suspicious.
"Have you told her everything?" Zhao Ruoxi opened her mouth with a question, which was totally without reason.
"Tell her what?" Chen Xing pretended to be stupid.
"Heart matters." Zhao Ruoxi said.
"No." Chen Xing continued to act stupid.
Zhao Ruoxi looked at him as if she didn't believe it.
After a moment of silence, she suddenly found that her hand was being held by Chen Xing, a blush suddenly appeared on her face, and she quickly pulled it back.
"You, what are you doing?" She subconsciously took a step back and distanced herself, with a panicked expression on her face.
"No, I just took a walk, talked, and didn't do anything." Chen Xing explained that he didn't want to be misunderstood by the other party, and then went back to complain to Zhao Yuankai.
Zhao Ruoxi looked at him for a while, but probably didn't see any problem, so she gave up questioning, turned around and walked to the lake, looking at the water lanterns on the lake in a daze.
Viewed from the side, it looks like a goddess statue carved from white jade. The mountain breeze blows and lifts the ends of the hair. She reached out and smoothed her hair, feeling calm, calm, indifferent and elegant.
Only an imperial family can cultivate such an untainted temperament.
However, this image of the goddess looking at the lake was quickly broken by ordinary people.
"Where are the things you agreed to give me?" At this moment, Chen Xing was like a debt collector. He risked his life and risked his life just for this. After waiting carefully for a long time, I haven't even seen anything yet, which is really a loss.
Zhao Ruoxi raised her fingertips and pulled lightly. A crack in the space opened, and an ancient wine glass slowly flew out.
Chen Xing grabbed it and looked at it carefully. Made of bronze, with ancient inscriptions engraved on the surface, the cup is high in front and low in back, with an animal head emerging from one side and three slender legs below. It is an ancient bronze three-legged cup from the Eastern Continent.
"The wine glass is not empty." Zhao Ruoxi said the name of the glass.
Chen Xing smelled the mouth of the cup, and there was a faint aroma of wine inside. I poured it out and took a sip. It was sweet and refreshing.
Although it is wine, Chen Xing knows that any counterfeit device with "infinite" qualities can absorb space energy.
Without further ado, Chen Xing gathered his spiritual energy, activated the spirit quenching technique, and struck the bronze wine cup with his palm.
"Crack!"
The bronze wine cup first cracked, and the cracks spread like a spider web, breaking into countless small pieces, and the small pieces shattered into powder.
A ray of orange light flew out of the powder, flew around Chen Xing three times, and escaped into the cracks in space.
Within the spiritual sea, orange light flashed in the sky, rushing down like a meteor, turning rapidly on the sea, bringing up pieces of water, arcing across the sea, and falling into the island.
In an open space on the island, the orange-yellow light spot gradually enlarged, and finally turned into a huge bronze wine cup.
The wine flows from the beast's mouth on the side of the cup, and the aroma of wine overflows. The goblins gathered around, caught the wine in their big mouths, and drank happily. The dozing White Wolf King who was lying on the ground was awakened by the aroma of wine. He bared his teeth and rushed over. He used his strong body to squeeze the goblin away and drank the wine alone.
But there was a lot of wine, and it kept flowing out, gradually forming a small stream at its feet.
The White Wolf King drank for a long time and became extremely drunk. White light bloomed on his body. He shook violently and his white hair flew out, turning into ordinary-sized silver wolves.
"Hala!"
The goblins mounted silver wolves one after another and ran quickly on the island.
A new unit has appeared, the Goblin Wolf Cavalry, which is faster and more powerful.
Compared with the previous moonlight essence bottle, the empty wine glass provides more energy, and new surprises will soon appear.
A goblin was lying on the side of the stream, drinking wine greedily. Maybe he was drunk, and he started dancing and making a hearty sound.
"Gulala, Gulala!"
Suddenly he raised his head, inhaled sharply, and burst out a stream of flames from his mouth.
Goblin Fire Breather, another new unit appears.
After a while, Chen Xing gathered his thoughts and left Linghai, his face beaming with joy.
"Are you satisfied?" Zhao Ruoxi asked.
"Okay, thank you." Chen Xing said seriously.
"Then, I'll leave it to you to do what I said before." Zhao Ruoxi nodded slightly.
"No problem." Chen Xing said without blushing or heartbeat. He is already very good at lying to women.
"It's getting late now. We are different between men and women, so it's inconvenient to stay longer." Zhao Ruoxi said, "I have to go back to the palace. Next time during the day, I will invite you to the Yaoguang Palace to gather together."
Chen Xing never thought about what would happen to his beloved little daughter under Zhao Yuankai's nose. The two soon separated and went back to their respective homes.
Half an hour later, Chen Xing returned to the aerospace craft, then took off and left, heading for the Green Continent.
