In the pit.
The sphere was highly professional. Not only did it clean the wound on Shen Baozhu's hand thoroughly, but it also used a spray to reduce the swelling on her ankle.
Since Shen Baozhu only had some skin injuries, she recovered quickly and could even jump on the spot a few times.
This scene made Shen Haiyan deeply realize how powerful the "immortal" in Shen Baozhu's mouth was.
Watching the little girl jump, the sphere clapped its mechanical hands enthusiastically. "You're amazing, little girl!"
Then it took out a gift from its belly and gave it to Shen Baozhu. "A little gift. I hope you'll like it, little girl."
The gift was delicate and small, a scaled - down version of the sphere itself. Compared with the real one, the gift sphere was a bit more spirited and cute.
Shen Baozhu took it and looked at it lovingly.
The sphere then began to check Shen Haiyan's bone growth. "You need to rest for a while. Before you fully recover, walk less and rest more."
"The bone may hurt a bit while growing. You can take some medicine to relieve the pain, but only one pill at a time. Don't take too much. There's also some medicine to promote recovery..."
Looking at the colorful pills in front of him, Shen Haiyan nodded. "Baozhu, you put the medicine away."
The sphere was very careful. It divided the pills for each meal, wrapped them in paper, and gave them to Shen Baozhu.
After finishing its treatment task, the sphere looked around the pit, then spun around on its own. Its originally white light turned red. "Warning! Warning! The environment is harsh. It's not suitable for a little girl to live in, and even less suitable for a young man to recuperate."
The sphere spun around again. It extended its mechanical arm upwards. With a loud noise, the branches covering the pit were pushed away, and the dim yellow sunset shone into the pit.
Both Shen Baozhu and Shen Haiyan stood still in shock, looking at the sphere in disbelief. They could hardly imagine that such a small body could have so much strength.
The sphere didn't stop there. It was the latest product of the interstellar era, with multiple responsibilities such as childcare and body - guarding. However, because of its high price, few people bought it.
After all, the money could be used to hire nannies and bodyguards for hundreds of years. There was no need to buy a robot.
So the sphere cherished this chance to have a master very much. It was afraid that it might not do well enough and would be returned.
It first carried Shen Baozhu out of the pit on its mechanical arm. Then it quickly retracted the arm, replaced it with a big knife, and quickly cut down several trees to make a simple stretcher. It then carried Shen Haiyan out of the pit.
Shen Baozhu was so shocked that she couldn't say a word. She could only stare blankly at the sphere.
The sphere mistakenly thought she was bored, so it took out a bunch of things from its belly. "According to research, many little girls like to imitate adults and play dressing - up games."
"There are wigs, food - grade pigments, all kinds of clothes... The sphere will cooperate with you in the game!"
"If you don't like this, the sphere has other games, like gobang, stickers..."
Before the sphere could finish speaking, it suddenly disappeared, along with the wigs and stickers on the ground.
Shen Baozhu instinctively ran to Shen Haiyan's side and looked at the steel plate worriedly. After waiting for a while, the steel plate didn't disappear. Shen Baozhu felt relieved. She said in a relaxed tone, "Baozhu said that as long as Baozhu protects Third Brother, he will be fine!"
Shen Haiyan nodded repeatedly. "Yes, thanks to Baozhu, Third Brother was saved."
On the other side, seeing that Shen Baozhu had been treated by the sphere, Lin Yu picked up the experimental data beside him and began to read.
Just as Lin Yu finished reading the first page, the sphere appeared in front of him. The man and the robot stared at each other.
Soon, Lin Yu understood the reason. [Baozhu, the system doesn't allow me to give you the sphere. I can only lend it to you. It costs 300 points a day.]
[And the golden dragon ornament given to you by the Dragon King is okay. But if the virtual shadow of the golden dragon comes out of the ornament, you need to use points to exchange for it.]
Even the usually calm Qingyun Zhenren was surprised. [We have to pay points for the things that have already been given?]
At this moment, everyone had a new understanding of the system's "merchant - like" nature, especially the Dragon King, who had enough points but couldn't speak.
...
After the sphere pushed away the branches and cut down the trees, the noise attracted Ping Hai and his group.
When they saw the disheveled Shen Baozhu and Shen Haiyan lying on the ground with blood on his face, Ping Hai was so scared that his heart almost jumped out.
Before leaving the palace, His Majesty had specifically told him to take good care of Shen Baozhu.
So seeing Shen Baozhu and Shen Haiyan in trouble, Ping Hai was extremely anxious. He rushed forward and asked worriedly, "What happened?"
"I'm a eunuch in the palace. Your Highness the little princess and Young Master Third can just call me Ping Hai."
But Shen Haiyan's eyes skipped over him and sharply landed on Shen Yunfeng. More precisely, he was looking at the slap mark on Shen Yunfeng's face.
Although he didn't do it himself and didn't see it with his own eyes, Shen Haiyan still felt a sense of relief.
Following Third Brother's line of sight, Shen Baozhu also saw Shen Yunfeng. She happily rushed over. "Father, someone bullied Baozhu and Third Brother. Please avenge us!"
Seeing his most hated son, Shen Yunfeng was too lazy to even pretend. He had a cold look on his face, not like Ping Hai who was worried.
Although his body was still injured, it didn't stop Shen Haiyan from speaking. His tone suddenly rose, and he said in a sarcastic way, "How could Father avenge us? I'm a stupid and muscle - headed fool, and you're just a little girl. What right do we have?"
Shen Haiyan openly embarrassed Shen Yunfeng in front of Ping Hai and more than a dozen guards. Everyone was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say.
"Third Brother is not a fool. Baozhu doesn't allow Third Brother to say that. And I'm a girl. Of course I'm a little girl." Shen Baozhu didn't understand the meaning behind the words. She shook her head and said proudly, "Grandfather likes to call Baozhu a little girl. It sounds so fun!"
Hearing this, Ping Hai immediately flattered. "Really? The General and the little princess have a really good relationship. I have a handkerchief here. If the little princess doesn't mind, you can use it to wipe your face..."
Knowing the difference in their statuses, Ping Hai was afraid that Shen Baozhu would mind. He carefully handed over his handkerchief.
The handkerchief was light blue, with the character "Hai" embroidered in the lower - left corner. There were also some simple patterns embroidered around the character.
Shen Baozhu didn't take the handkerchief directly. She opened her tightly - clenched palm, showing the small sphere inside. "This is a gift someone gave to Baozhu, but I accidentally made it dirty. Can Ping Hai lend me your handkerchief to wipe the gift?"
Ping Hai was flattered and handed over his handkerchief. Then he took out another one. "Your Highness can just use it. I brought four. There are enough for you and Young Master Third to wipe your hands."
"Wow! I have pastries. Baozhu will treat you to pastries!" Shen Baozhu didn't take Ping Hai's handkerchief for free. She took out the wrapped pastries from her small bag.
Taking them out in front of everyone, she counted, "One, two, three, four, five, six..."
The seemingly small bag was stuffed with 35 pastries by Shen Baozhu. After feeding five to Third Brother, there were still 30 left.
Shen Baozhu first gave three pastries to Ping Hai with a clean handkerchief and one to each guard. The remaining pastries were all fed to Shen Haiyan.
Shen Haiyan was a bit touched. He didn't expect to get so many pastries from Shen Baozhu. It was worth it for him to dote on Baozhu.
Ping Hai was a smart person. Even though he didn't like such sweet pastries, he ate them big mouthfuls and praised in front of Shen Baozhu, "The pastries given by the little princess are so delicious!"
Seeing this, the guards ate the pastries in the same way and praised them one after another.
"Third Brother, eat quickly. Father has been staring at you. He must want to eat the pastries too. Eat quickly, or Father will come and grab them!" Shen Baozhu was very protective of the food and urged.
Hearing this, Shen Haiyan, who originally ate one pastry in two bites, speeded up and ate one in one bite. Because he ate too fast, he almost bit Shen Baozhu.
Shen Baozhu became more careful. "Yes, Third Brother, eat faster."
Some were eating pastries, and some were feeding. Only Shen Yunfeng stood there with an ashen face.
