The Little King Next Door

Lei Mu didn't know what evil thoughts Wang Xiaoye was spinning, he ignored the little guy's sharp eyes, and his attention was completely attracted by the space of the insect nest.

This living area was unexpectedly arranged by Xiao Yezi like a house.

The space of about forty square meters is divided into a kitchen area and a bedroom area, with a frosted glass-like wall as a partition in the middle.

Lei Mu couldn't recognize many things inside, so he could only roughly guess the purpose.

The kitchen has a gas stove and gas tank, as well as an iron stove bought at the trench island market.Next to it is the cooking table and sink.

The cooktop, cooking table, sink, and drains are not made of any material. They are actually part of the insect nest, but both the color and the style are eye-catching, clean and integrated.

The sink is large, with a faucet that can adjust hot and cold water and a small shower installed on it.

A wooden table and four chairs that can be expanded into a round table are placed in the middle, serving as both a dining room and a living room.The walls on both sides are full of shelves of the same quality and color as the cooking table, and the shelves are full of kitchen utensils such as pots and pans.

There is a door on the partition wall like frosted glass, and when you push it open, you will find the bedroom inside.

A half-meter-high, three-meter-wide and two-meter-long platform rises in the middle of the bedroom, which is the bed.

There are two moisture-proof floor mats side by side on the platform. The floor mat is a hard sponge mat, and the sponge mat is covered with solid-color sheets. Summer quilts and latex pillows are piled on the head of the bed.There is a low cabinet with drawers on each side of the platform.

There are also many things hidden in the platform, which are now invisible.

A wardrobe is automatically generated on the wall, standing upright, and a large number of items can also be stored inside.

A solar-charged electric lamp is hung on the roof of the kitchen, dining room and bedroom, and the switch can be controlled by a remote control.

The most wonderful thing is that there are three large windows in the kitchen, dining room and bedroom respectively, and the natural light from the outside comes in. The windows can be pushed open, and the scenery you see is the scenery outside.

The window glass is not glass, it is also a part of the insect nest itself, but it has been transparentized.

Oh, there is another door. This door is opened from the inside. If you go out, you will be outside, and if you come in, you will be inside the space.But no matter whether you come in or go out, you must get the consent of the master Wang Ye.

Wang Ye was angry with Lei Mu for less than three seconds, and then he surrounded him and said: "There are two rooms behind, one is a storage room for keeping fresh and quality, and the other is a stalactite spirit liquid cultivation hole. The cultivation hole is relatively large. I have done some renovations, adding bathrooms and toilets inside. There are pools and sewers, and the water pipes are made up of the insect nest itself, and the sewers can only be discharged regularly at present, and I will slowly renovate them in the future."

In fact, the insect nest has a self-cleaning function, and any energy can be digested by it as energy. Otherwise, there are so many insects eating and drinking in the insect nest, how to deal with it?

But as long as Wang Ye thinks that the worm nest has become one with him, no matter what kind of energy the worm nest digests, it is equivalent to his own digestion. Thinking about it this way, he feels that it is necessary to discharge the dirt regularly.

When the space of his worm nest expands in the future, and a planting area appears, and the dirt has a place to discharge, he may accept it.Although the essence is the same, but people are so hypocritical, if there is a transition, it will not be difficult to accept it again.

Lei Mu sighed: "I didn't expect that this worm nest space can not only bring in the owner, but also bring outsiders in, and it can communicate with the outside world. It's amazing, it's really different from ordinary spaces."

Wang Ye showed off: "It's easy to understand if you think of the worm's nest as a snail's shell. The snail's shell can be exposed or retracted into the body."

"So, if we come in, we can leave entities outside?"

"You can. You don't have to. This is my secondary space, and I can hide it in my body."

"Then how did you enter the subspace inside your body?"

"You can't get around me." Wang Ye gave Lei Mu a proud look: "Using a snail as an example, the snail shell is the insect nest and I are one, no matter whether the insect nest is placed outside or stored in the body , I looked like I came in from the outside, when I actually just shrank back into my shell."

"The insect nest is me, I am the insect nest, I enter the insect nest, the insect nest still exists in the world, and has not disappeared. There are two ways for me to make the insect nest invisible, one is not visible, but can be touched. One is the space disturbance ability that comes with the insect nest, if you are not in the same space, others will naturally not be able to see or touch it."

"Smart little guy." Lei Mu deliberately took off Wang Ye's straw hat and rubbed his bald head.

Wang Ye: "..."

Lei Mu was very curious about many things he hadn't seen before, but he was worried that the little guy might have some taboos, so he didn't take the initiative to ask.

Wang Ye took the initiative to tell him how to use items such as gas tanks, gas stoves, electric lights and remote controls.

"A very special strange technique, is it from your hometown, the Blue Star Islands?" Lei Mu accepted it naturally. This unbelievable existence has long been tempered by people like Lei Mu who often run outside.

"Yes."

"Can you go back to your hometown?" Lei Mu asked abruptly.

Wang Ye: "...Yes."

Lei Mu nodded, "Do other Blue Star Islanders have this ability?"

"They can come and go, but they can't bring things, even if they have the space."

"Understood, you are the special one." Lei Mu only saw these things that Wang Ye took out, and knew that the little guy had no intention of hiding him at all.

This made him both happy and a little apprehensive about this heavy trust.

"Little Yezi," Lei Mu said solemnly, facing Wang Ye, pressing his chest with one hand, "I swear on my life and my magic, that I will never make you different from others without your permission." If you break the oath, you will lose your life and soul, and it is impossible to even transform the undead."

Wang Ye opened his mouth and did not stop Lei Mu from swearing.Because Lei Mu obviously thought that doing so would reassure him, in order to reassure Lei Mu of his reassurance, he let Lei Mu finish his oath.

Lei Mu swore to use a different technique, and his oath became an actual constraint, which fell on the two of them respectively.

"Mumu, you don't want others to know about your matter, and I won't say it." Wang Ye also swore.

Lei Mu laughed, thinking that the scene of them facing each other and swearing was a bit funny.

Seeing him smile, Wang Ye also laughed foolishly.He didn't hide it from Lei Mu, apart from his trust, it was also because he couldn't hide it, he would live with Lei Mu for a long time in the future, if he also concealed it from Lei Mu, it would be too inconvenient.

"Let's eat. I'll cook for you with a gas stove. This thing is much more convenient than a stove. You can control the size of the flame as you like."

"Same as the magic furnace?"

"Yes, the functions are similar."

Wang Ye took out all kinds of cooked food he bought like offering treasures, and let Lei Mu taste them.

Lei Mu asked him to put away most of them, leaving only cakes, flower rolls, and some stewed vegetables.

With the help of Lei Mu, this guy doesn't use a paring knife or a grater, and his knife skills are extremely good, cutting quickly and well.Chef Wang Xiaoye fried green vegetables with oil residue, shredded pork with green peppers and shredded hot and sour potatoes, and made egg drop soup with chicken feathers grown by his aunt himself.

Both of them had not eaten fresh vegetables for a long time, so they ate the dinner very contentedly, and had two cakes for dessert after the meal.

Both of them can eat, and all the food on the table is CD-ROM.

The afterglow of the setting sun slanted in from the window. Sitting in the insect nest space, they felt as if they were sitting in the hall of a normal house. The lighting was particularly good and the air was fresh.

Wang Ye made the insect nest distort the surrounding space, so they can enjoy the sunlight normally, but outsiders can't see or touch the insect nest even if they pass by.

After the meal, the two went to the bathroom to enjoy themselves.

Lei Mu saw the resplendent bathroom and toilet where the entire wall and floor were paved with gold, and he remained silent for a long while.This is really not such a luxury for the royal family.

Wang Ye also made a big bathtub out of gold.

The items in the nest space are all controlled by Wang Ye's mind, as long as the modification is not too complicated, he can do it easily.

Wang Ye was very proud: "Shall we flash?"

Lei Mu: It's so flashy, it almost blinds my eyes.If the toilet was not made of porcelain and not gold, he wouldn't dare to use it, but isn't it too luxurious to use porcelain for the toilet?

Wang Ye also bought a large-capacity solar water heater with a temperature control valve and installed it in the bathroom, so that they can have domestic hot water and no longer need to boil water temporarily.

However, solar water heaters also have disadvantages. Wang Ye had already thought about it. He would just buy a magic heater and install it on the water pipe later.

Wang Ye took a shower, and Lei Mu took a bath.He guarded Wang Xiaoye underground for more than a month, his nerves were always tense, and it was rare for him to relax like this.

That night, the two went to bed very early, and for the first time, they didn't have to worry about defense at all. Both of them allowed themselves to fall into a real sleep.

The next morning, the two fell asleep and woke up naturally.

It was such a comfortable sleep.

Lei Mu took a shower, and under Wang Ye's guidance, brushed his teeth with a toothbrush and toothpaste. After tidying up, he felt loose and energetic.

"Can you control the movement of the hive?" Lei Mu asked while eating breakfast.

"Of course I can. The insect nest is me, and I am the insect nest. Wherever I want to go, the insect nest can go." Wang Ye made ten big meat buns, Lei Mu six, and him four.

Wang Ye also bought a lot of pure milk, and poured a cup for himself and Lei Mu in the morning.

"Can the nest stay invisible even when it's moving?" Lei Mu took a sip of the milk, a little unaccustomed to the taste, but he never wasted food, and drank it sip by sip.

"Yes." Wang Ye immediately understood why Lei Mu asked him this way: "You want me to drive the worm nest to explore this prisoner island?"

"Yes." Lei Mu felt that the word driving was very interesting.

Wang Ye slapped his hands: "We thought about going together. By the way, you said you discovered something yesterday?"

"Well, later you go in the direction I pointed." Lei Mu made a fool of himself.

"Okay." Wang Ye looked at Lei Mu: "Mumu, don't you like drinking milk?"

Lei Mu put down the pottery cup: "It's not bad, but I'm not used to it."

"I don't like the smell of milk." Wang Ye didn't drink milk a few times in the first eight years of his life, which caused him to have a little complex for milk when he grew up, and he preferred milk to soy milk.

"Maybe you can try soy milk. Sweet soy milk and soy milk are delicious. I bought a lot of beans and wanted to buy a soymilk machine, but the soymilk machine needs a lot of power, and ordinary batteries can't carry it. The battery is too big. It’s too expensive. Next time I’ll buy a home stone mill and bring it with me.”

"Soymilk machine? Battery?"

"Electric energy is a kind of energy term in our place, similar to the magic power here. The storage battery is a container for storing and releasing this energy. Various energies such as solar power, water power, wind power, and fire power can be converted into electrical energy. Unfortunately, magic power and electric energy are two I don’t know how to convert between them, otherwise I can just bring the electrical appliances over there and use them.” Before his death in his previous life, no one seemed to have figured out how to convert electrical energy and magic energy.

Lei Mu listened with great interest and enlightenment.If those natural energies can be converted into electrical energy, can they also be converted into magic power?

Lei Mu thinks it is entirely possible, because magic power can cast various spells such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth, etc. Isn't it equivalent to converting magic power into natural energy?

In this way, all energies should be able to communicate and convert each other.

Lei Mu's heartbeat quickened. If this theory is true, can his problem be solved?

"The soymilk machine is used to grind beans and other relatively hard foods. Two blades are installed on the bottom of the shaft, and the blades are driven to rotate rapidly by using energy, so that hard objects can be broken..." Wang Ye introduced the principle of the soybean milk machine, and also talked about the method of the stone mill.

When Lei Mu heard about the stone mill, he was not very unfamiliar with it, "It sounds very simple, as long as there is energy to drive the blade, right?"

"That's what it means. Mumu, is it possible that you want to make one? Do you know alchemy?" Wang Ye knew too little about Leimu. In his previous life, Mumu was a puppet without his own obvious consciousness. He could know that the other party's eyes were special. , Knowing different spells is already the result of careful observation, and almost nothing else is known.

Lei Mu smiled: "I don't know it yet, but I can learn."

It is also impossible for him to live a life of beatings and killings. He used to be alone, but now he is raising a child (it feels more like he is being raised by this child), so he can't go on like this.

Most importantly, he wanted to study the possibility of mutual conversion of energy.

If he can solve his own problems by himself, he doesn't need to ask others.

Wang Ye was very supportive of this, and the two also discussed where the best place to learn alchemy was.

Double Moon Star has a magic school and a special alchemy school. There are also some junior alchemists and alchemy apprentices who open classes to the outside world. This kind of threshold is the lowest. As long as they are willing to pay for the teaching fee, anyone can learn it.

"I heard that alchemy and blacksmithing are very prosperous in Xiahuo Shangguo and her affiliated countries. Let's go over there and have a look when we're done here." Wang Ye suggested excitedly.

"Don't forget the elf eggs." Lei Mu reminded him.

Wang Ye curled his lips, "Let's talk about hatching, if you can't hatch, there is no need to go to the elves. And to go to the elves, Xia Huo Shangguo is also on the way."

Hearing what he said, Lei Mu also suggested: "If the elf eggs really can't hatch, you can try to enter the magic school. There is a large-scale magic school in Xiahuo Shangguo, which can be ranked No. Six. Other magic schools are fine, you don’t have to look at the rankings. A good magic school will protect its students, and even the elves don’t dare to break into the magic school to make trouble.”

Lei Mu didn't know who Wang Xiaoye's master was and how powerful he was, so he could only propose this way.

"Magic school..." Wang Ye only learned magic formation diagrams from his master in his previous life, and did not learn magic systematically. Because of the short time with his master, he only learned the basics of magic potions, so he was quite tempted by this proposal. .

Gratitude Village, Prisoner Island.

A hunched little old man emerged from a low mud room.

Half of the little old man's face seemed to have been licked by fire, the skin was melted and deformed, and most of the left eyelid was glued together.The other half of the face was out of shape, and half of the beard was still growing. The beard and hair almost grew together, so dirty and knotted.

The little old man was also wearing dirty and torn coarse cloth clothes, the hem of which reached his thighs, and a pair of straw sandals on his feet.The exposed skin also has scars from the fire.

The little old man was dragging a basket and walked forward with his waist bent.

Occasionally ran into villagers on the road, but no one paid him any attention.

In addition to young people in the village, there are also many older people.

In addition to being the descendants of prisoners, some of these people were released when the time came, but they had nowhere to go, so they left the prisoners who settled down on Prisoner Island.

Some of these released prisoners have decent personalities, but most of them are withdrawn and like to live alone, and they don’t need to communicate with others.

The little old man is one of them.

The little old man has lived in the village for nearly 20 years. A few years ago, his house suddenly caught fire, and he was about to die after being rescued. In the end, he managed to survive.

But since then, the little old man has become even more withdrawn. Except for exchanging some necessary daily necessities and food with the villagers, he hardly talks to people anymore.The villagers suspected that his throat might also have been damaged by the fire.

Villagers in Thanksgiving Village, as long as they are 12 years old, have to open up fields to support themselves and pay taxes every year.

The little old man also has a field, which was carefully tended in the past, and the harvest is good every year.But after the little old man was burned, he might be in poor health, and he also became unable to take care of the fields. The little old man had no choice but to go to the mountains to get some food.

Fortunately, the little old man still has charcoal-burning skills that he has not shown much before. He can burn charcoal to exchange food with the villagers so that he will not starve to death.

Although they live on the island, these villagers are not allowed to go fishing. It is said that they were allowed to go fishing before, but then they didn’t know why, and all the villagers were trapped on the island.

But the overall scope of Prisoner Island is not small. The villagers live on the island, and they can't get close except for the outer perimeter and the prison, and they can walk freely on the inner perimeter.

Prisoner Island has mountains, water, and woods, and the land is considered fertile. It is not a problem to support 3 to [-] people, not to mention that the total population of Thanksgiving Village now does not exceed [-].

The little old man dragged his basket into the mountains, and the villagers only thought he went into the mountains to pick up some mountain goods and see if there were any harvests in the traps.

When he arrived in the mountains, the little old man carried the basket on his back, and it would be difficult to drag it any longer.

The forest is getting denser and denser, and there is a small path stepped on the ground.

The little old man circled around and stopped to rest from time to time, actually checking to see if anyone was following him.

Wang Ye manipulated the insect nest to follow behind the little old man, but the little old man didn't notice it.

Arriving at a mountain depression, the little old man saw no one was around, so he removed a half-rotten wooden stake, revealing the cave behind.
