Vol 5 Chapter 488: Happy birthday (in)

"The gift from Little Bell was brought by Liu Gaoshang yesterday. I originally thought that I would take it out to Lao Xia after I finished eating the cake at night. It was in the cabinet under the living room outside. That SF express package." Xiang Kun in the kitchen replied with a smile after hearing Yang Zhen'er's urging.
Yang Zhen'er ran out immediately, went to the cabinet to find the package, took it out and said to Xia Libing, "It should be this! Open it and see?"
"Hey, Lao San Yang, this is a birthday present for Lao Xia and not for you. Why are you so excited!" Xia Tianhuo laughed.
"Lao Xia and Little Bell will not mind, right, Little Bell?" Yang Zhener turned the notebook he was using for the video call, let the camera face him, holding the package and said with a smile: "Little Bell , Can Sister Fairy help your Sister Drumsticks open the present?"
Tang Baona was drinking tea, almost choked, and said with a smile: "Really, your cheeks are too thick! I am ashamed to call myself "Sister Fairy"..."
Yang Zhener got the remote "authorization" from Little Fat Girl and began to unpack the express delivery. As for her dear cousin, there would be no comments!
After unpacking, I quickly saw a gift from the little fat girl. It was a rolled-up, 4-open-size colored pencil drawing on a large paper, but what is more special is that this painting seems to be divided into two painting styles. Except for the middle area, the surrounding elements, including the mountains and forests below, the dark clouds above, and the lightning on the side, are all realistic color pictures. It seems that they were not drawn directly with colored pens but printed out.
In the middle part, the style of painting is obviously from the handwriting of the little fat girl.
Above the mountain forest, a ponytail female magician with a very long body and a robe raised her right hand and thrust her magic wand straight into the sky among the clouds. The surrounding lightning seemed to be triggered by her.
Next to the tall and majestic female magician with ponytails, there is a multi-winged flying object about 1/10 of its size. It carries a little magician who also wears a magic robe, but because it is too small, it is too small. The facial features under the hat are replaced by simple strokes, which look like ":.
Although this painting is at the level of a little fat girl, it should be painted quite carefully, especially the ponytail magician, who is completely super level, but Yang Zhener laughed when he saw the content of the painting. Tears almost came out: "Hahahahaha, little bell, how do you paint Lao Xia like a Statue of Liberty, hahahahaha, and the one next to it looks like a fly, oh no, like a bee , Is it the egg yolk pie? You are the one carrying it? How to draw it so small? Hahahahaha, the painting is very good, so cute, hahahaha, you and the yolk pie together are not as big as Lao Xia’s eyes. Hahahahaha..."
Others didn't feel much at first seeing this painting, but when Yang Zhener said that, they all fell forward and closed with a smile.
Only Xia Tianhuo, who helped Yang Zhener exhibit the painting, saw the half body of a huge creature with eight eyes and eight arms stepped under the feet of the ponytail magician on the painting. He was taken aback for a moment, and his expression was surprised. The little fat girl who made the video through the notebook asked, "Little sister, what you drew... a giant with eight eyes and eight hands?"
Yang Zhen'er only noticed here that there was actually an eight-armed eight-eyed monster at the feet of Lao Xia, but she didn't respond much, subconsciously thinking that it was the little fat girl who had seen Xiang Kun's wood carving of the eight-armed eight-eyed monster.
The little fat girl was asked by Xia Tianhuo and almost blurted out "Barbie Warrior". Fortunately, she immediately realized that on the video side, not only Xia Libing and Little Apple, two sisters who belong to the magical world, there are many others. Uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, although they are very good people, according to the confidentiality requirements of the bald uncle, they cannot be told.
So the little fat girl blinked her eyes twice and replied: "It's the crab essence I saw on TV..."
Xia Tianhuo wondered: "Essence of crab? Why do crabs have so many eyes?"
"Ah? Then... spider spirit! Spiders have so many eyes... right?" The little fat girl changed her mouth.
However, no one has doubts about the little fat girl’s answer. Even Xia Tianhuo just thinks that the little fat girl may have accidentally seen the eight-armed eye when the Montamira-related news was broadcast on the previous TV. The illusion of the giant left an impression as a cartoon image of a spider spirit or a crab spirit. After all, many TV stations had 3D images made according to eyewitness descriptions or sketches drawn directly by the parties when they broadcast news some time ago.
Only when Tang Baona was explaining the details of the painting to the little apple beside her, she vaguely felt that the little fat girl didn't finish her words. Before they went to Star City, they saw the big four pairs of wings she painted at the little girl's house. When I was a cat, when I discussed why those wings were painted like that, this girl was very energetic. Unlike now, I just took a sentence and didn't want to talk more.
And like Yang Zhen'er, she feels that the giant painted by the little fat girl should be the impression left by Xiang Kun's "eight-armed eight-eyed monster wood carving" before. The statue itself is actually quite cartoon.
"Little bells, did your mother help you make these mountain, cloud, and lightning patterns on this piece of paper? They were drawn on a computer? They made them look so beautiful!" Yang Zhener asked, holding the picture. Tao.
"Little screw helped me get it." Liu Shiling replied. Little screw is her nickname, so it's not a leak.
Yang Zhener didn't ask too much, thinking that "Little Screw" was Liu Shiling's friend in Star City.
Xia Libing knew that it was probably Alice who helped to make an environmental map and then printed it out for the little fat girl. As for the specific operation, how to let the little fat girl in Star City get the drawing paper with the printed pattern, and wanted to come to Xiang Kun Should be known. For example, use Xiang Kun's account to find a merchant online to type out the completed picture, and then express it to Star City.
However, the environmental patterns of mountains, clouds, and lightning made Xia Libing quite concerned, because these patterns were not directly synthesized from physical pictures on the Internet or other ready-made pictures, but were obviously "painted" by Alice. Although the details of these patterns are very fine, they look obviously better than those drawn by the little fat girl, like those drawn by a person who specializes in fine arts, but there are still many flaws and rough places, and even some places can be vaguely seen and small. Fat girl's "habit" and "style" are in the same line.
But it is these places that have an obvious humanized growth curve style, so that Xia Libing can intuitively see Alice’s "perceptual growth"-for Alice, it is very easy to draw real or beautiful , On the contrary, this kind of real "flaw" and "clumsy" is much harder.
Just like when the little fat girl taught Alice to draw for the first time in a dream, the simple and crooked simple strokes drawn are already a leapfrog breakthrough for Alice.
When I helped the little fat girl draw this picture, Alice had not yet fully integrated into the "super-sensing item system". With the help of Little Apple the day before yesterday, after completing the final integration, Alice will certainly evolve more rapidly. Xia Libing looked forward to what Alice would look like in this state.
"Lao Xia, why are you in a daze? Little Bell's painting is very good, right?" Tang Baona saw Lao Xia's eyes staring at the painting, motionless, even the little fat girl in the video was a little nervous I got up and called her softly, and then said to the little fat girl: "Next time on my birthday, will Little Bell draw me a picture too?"
Liu Shiling nodded quickly and agreed: "Hmm!"
Xia Libing recovered and took over the painting from Yang Zhen'er, and said to Liu Shiling: "The painting is great, I am very satisfied, thank you Xiaoling."
Yang Zhener said: "Little Bell, I want too! You want to paint for me too! But I have to paint me more beautifully, um, I will find some reference pictures for you at that time!"
The gifts were originally given when they finished eating and were about to eat the cake, but now that they have seen the gift of the little fat girl, and now there is nothing else to do, everyone simply took out their gifts.
Yang Zhener’s gift was a pair of hiking shoes. Because I found that Lao Xia and Xiang Kun often went to Chongyun Mountain to "investigate" and went to the construction site to check the progress. The previous shoes were dirty and torn, so they prepared a new pair for her. Shoes that are more durable and suitable for the occasion. Anyway, she is Lao Xia's sponsor of old clothes, shoes and hats, and the size and size are all accurate.
Tang Baona and Yang Zhen'er had the same idea, and they gave an outdoor watch. Naturally, the function and brand are much better than Lao Xia's original G-SHOCK.
In addition, after Zhang Qian knew about Lao Xia’s birthday, she also sent a gift and asked Tang Baona to give it to Lao Xia, which is a sports backpack of a luxury brand. The reason why she gave this was also when Xiang Kun and the others went to Pengcheng. When I saw the old men’s backpack that Lao Xia carried, I thought it should have been used for a long time.
Zicheng and Chu Xiaoting only knew yesterday that Little Apple and they came to Chongyun Mountain to celebrate Lao Xia's birthday, so they prepared hastily and gave a small handicraft bought in Tongshi Town here.
When Yang Zhener saw Xia Tianhuo sitting still without moving, she asked: "Big guy, what gift do you give Lao Xia?"
"I, hey, I'm ashamed. I heard you talking in the car on the 20th and realized that Lao Xia's birthday is here. Don't you all live in the village these days? I haven't been out, so I haven't had time to prepare gifts. Hey, remember this gift first, and I’ll make it up later. I have a lot of local specialties from Africa and Southeast Asia in my home. Lao Xia will pick it up at that time.
Xia Tianhuo is not embarrassed and said cheeky, he also knows very well. Lao Xia certainly didn't care if there was a birthday present.
"Wow! Your cousin was doing it... Tsk tsk tsk!" Yang Zhener shook his head with disgust.
"Hey, Laosan Yang, you didn't give me a birthday present on my birthday! Oh, yes, I remember, you rushed to blow my candle on my eighteenth birthday! "Xia Tianhuo stared at his cousin.
Yang Zhen'er stared at him: "I was still a kid at the time! Are you embarrassed to care about a pupil?"
"Baby shit! You were in junior high school at the time!"
Although he knew that the siblings were joking, Professor Li Yang still turned a little bit and asked Little Apple to take out the gift she had prepared. He knew that his daughter had taken a lot of effort to prepare this gift.
Little Apple's gift is very special. She did not bring out any real objects, but asked Tang Baona to open her mailbox and play an audio file.
As soon as the audio file was released, everyone in the living room fell silent and listened in wonder.
This audio is full of bird sounds, but these bird sounds are not chaotic, and they have a melody in the sweet ringing. Listen carefully, this melody is "Happy Birthday Song"!
It can be heard that one of the singing sounds is the loudest and clearest, and the other bird singing is more of a harmony and accompaniment.
In the end, it was Little Apple's humming singing that participated in it, and it was actually quite harmonious. After singing, Little Apple said softly: "Sister Bing, happy birthday."
Chu Xiaoting, who had been dumbfounded just now, couldn't help but clap, "That's great! I know for the first time that the birds chirping is so good, it's really great, is this edited? No, that song The sound is so coherent, it doesn't look like it was edited, it is AI synthesized sound?"
The singing of birds that lasted a minute, to everyone, was like listening to a performance.
Even if there is Tang Baona who is involved in helping audio production, this will sound again and can't help but admire.
Little Apple only said that it mainly relied on "Golden Shining" to provide voices, but did not elaborate on whether it was synthesized or edited.
Naturally, she couldn't tell anyone except Lao Xia that the birds and birds that sang along in the audio were all coerced by "Golden Shining" to sing along, and she only needed to teach "Golden Shining".
When the audio was playing, Xia Libing was also listening very carefully. From this audio, she could see to some extent the learning and comprehension ability of "Golden Shining", and there is also a comparison of the sounds of other birds in the same video. Perceive the difference in "Golden Sparkle".
"A good gift, thank you Little Apple." Xia Libing said.
"Sister Bing just likes it." Little Apple smiled happily, and "Golden Shining" by the window also slightly raised her chest.
Yang Zhener circled the customer hall and found that everyone had already displayed gifts. Suddenly he remembered something and jumped up from the stool: "By the way, Chef Xiang, Chef Xiang must have prepared gifts!"
So she rushed into the kitchen, and a few seconds later rushed out and ran into Xiangkun's room on the first floor. After half a minute, she returned to the living room with a small wooden box, handed it to Lao Xia, and said, "Chef Xiang gift."
Xia Libing took the small wooden box and opened it under everyone's gaze, causing a sound of "Huh".
But it was not a surprise, but a doubt, because most people didn't understand what it was at the first time.
Yang Zhen'er picked it up and looked at it before frowning, "This is... on your wrist?"
Inside the wooden box is a black leather wristband with many small metal patches, which looks a bit punk and gothic.
Yang Zhen'er put on her wrist and looked at it, and said strangely: "It's really a wristband? This is not made by Chef Xiang himself? This is... ugly crying! Oh, how can Chef Xiang get it? Such a wristband is totally inconsistent with Lao Xia's style? Lao Xia, this gift has to be rejected. If you call it back, let Chef Xiang make a few more wood carvings. It looks better than this ugly wristband!"
Tang Baona couldn't help but nodded, and then described the "ugly crying" wristband to the little apple next to her.
Zicheng is also a dumbfounding expression: "Atu's aesthetic is really ‘Atu’! A super straight and straight guy! Too dirty!"
However, Xia Libing wanted to return the wristband and put it on by herself, but said calmly, "I think it's okay."
What others don't know is that this wristband was actually made by Xiang Kun and Lao Xia together. Xiang Kun had previously thought about how to make Lao Xia more convenient to carry more
super-connected objects
after establishing contact. Before, she always carried nine coins, not to mention the weight, and if it was not fixed in the pocket. , I often have to ding ding ding 锵锵 when walking. Although the "tungsten steel ball" is small, if the quantity is large, it is also inconvenient to carry. After thinking about it, it is more appropriate to get a "modular wearable equipment" that can be increased and decreased from time to time, so the idea of ​​this wristband Came out.
The small iron pieces of the same size inlaid on it are naturally Xiangkun’s "super-connected objects", and after removing these iron pieces by a special method, there is a lot of narrow space inside the wristband, which can be used to make tungsten steel balls. The beads are stuffed in and can carry more than one hundred at most.
What's more, this kind of decoration, what materials, and what structure will not arouse people's suspicion. After going through the security check and the like, you can take it off, and you are not afraid of being checked.
Xiang Kun is responsible for the internal functions and handwork of this wristband, but the shape is actually more of Xia Libing's opinion.
"It's time for dinner!" At this time, Xiang Kun walked out of the kitchen with a pot of vegetables, and let Zicheng and Yang Zhen'er go into the kitchen to help arrange the dishes and chopsticks. Skin pork knuckles, today I went to the slaughterhouse to get the freshest and high-quality pork knuckles. Let go of the food and make sure you have enough!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Shiling, who has not yet finished the online video, craned her neck on the other side, as if she wanted to stick her head out of the video. Unfortunately, the angle of the camera was not facing the dining table, and we could only see other people excited. The expression made her unable to help her brain fill up the food made by "Uncle Bald". UU reading www. uukanshu.com
When the dinner was about to begin, You Meng's wife Liang Yulong also rushed over from Tongshi Town and brought some dishes made by You Meng.
Liu Caifu also sent a few jars of special fruit wine here.
Everyone ate this sumptuous dinner very happily, not only because Xiang Kun spent a lot of time, cooked a lot of dishes, but also had a good wine pairing, but also because today is Lao Xia’s birthday, so all friends can get together.
The food was almost the same. When Xiang Kun and Tang Baona started to prepare the cake, Xia Libing felt the vibration of the mobile phone. She picked it up and glanced at it. A system noticed: "Come to the door."
She instantly understood that this was Alice.
Xia Libing raised her head and glanced at Xiang Kun. The latter, who was unpacking the birthday cake, glanced back at her and continued to do things. She immediately understood: Alice did not find her by instructing Xiang Kun, but Xiang Kun knew.
Xia Libing went to the bathroom first, then walked through the courtyard naturally, opened the courtyard door, and walked out.
