A Million Possible

Yangcheng is not far from the capital city of Shu, and it takes less than an hour to get on the highway.

However, night traffic and the delay in the city, when Cheng Lin arrived in Yangcheng, it was already around ten o'clock in the evening.

Generally speaking, a taxi for such a long section is less than two hundred yuan. Cheng Lin gave five hundred, which was doubled. He found a bustling shopping mall in Yangcheng and got off the bus, and he transferred again. Another car drove to a certain village under Xiangyang City overnight.

Two days ago, it rained heavily here and the ground was muddy. On the highway some distance from the village, Cheng Lin got off the car and used the network map to identify the direction. Then he ran all the way in the dark.

When I finally arrived at the destination, it was already more than one o'clock in the morning.

...

"Huh, it should be here."

In the darkness, light rain was still floating in the sky.

Cheng Lin released Spiritual Qi and slammed the muddy water off his trousers and shoes, tucked his left hand in his clothes pocket, and put the phone in front of him with his right hand. He looked at the map above and the village ahead.

Well, it's more obvious than expected.

The whole village is dark, and the people don't know if they have moved. Even if they haven't, most of them should have fallen asleep.

However, in the village, there were obvious lights, which were very dazzling. With Transcendent's eyesight, Cheng Lin saw some excavators and other equipment.

"This is... the construction team who came to clean up the soil?"

Cheng Lin guessed.

The news was not reported in real time, but was similar to a disaster relief report after the event. In other words, the landslide stopped a long time ago, and even the local government has sent people to deal with the disaster. The people can transfer. The few remaining are still here.

What the village urgently needs to deal with is the collapsed houses, which need to be rebuilt, but before that, the falling mud and stones need to be cleared away.

Cheng Lin ran over after seeing the news.

At this time, there was still light rain in the sky, and there was no night work. The construction team seemed to have stopped in the village. Some headlights were turned on for safety, but it was bright.

Cheng Lin put away his mobile phone and walked straight to the village on the cleared road. When he approached, he clearly saw the collapsed and buried houses.

There was a thick layer of mud on the ground, and the construction team seemed to have cleared part of it. A large truck with a blue body was parked next to it, and gray-black mud spots were all over the tires.

Under the dimly lit incandescent lamp, a simple shed was placed on the ground. It seemed to be someone on duty, probably watching the machine.

This man was also alert, and did not even die. Hearing the barking of dogs outside, he quickly put on a gray overalls, picked up the flashlight on the table, opened the door and walked out.

Then, the light beam of the flashlight shone through, revealing Cheng Lin walking slowly in the dark.

"Hey! Who are you? Why..."

The man rubbed his eyes, became energetic, and yelled loudly, but before he could finish a sentence, he saw the dark shadow lift up his right hand and waved at him. The man suddenly lost his senses and turned his eyes. Softly fell to the ground.

"Roller."

Cheng Lin came over quietly, glanced at the flashlight that was rolling down on the ground, bent over to pick it up, and whispered, "Borrow it."

After thinking about it, he stretched out his hand and stuffed the man who had been stunned by his "mental storm" back into the shed. With his mastery of the "mental storm", he could do so without harming these people. To shut up.

"There is a lot of soil here..."

Cheng Lin took the flashlight and shone toward the mountain, both joy and sorrow.

The good news is that there is absolutely enough soil here, and I stole it myself without any psychological burden. This is considered a contribution to the folks.

The worry is that with so much soil, how easy is it to move into the space?

"Why... use an excavator? But I can't drive either..."

Cheng Lin glanced at the tall metal equipment next to him with a headache - these things stood in the dark like a giant devil.

After thinking about it, he finally decided to open the light door first. If it doesn't work, he can only drive the excavator and pour it in. It doesn't matter if it doesn't open, you can check it online...

Taking notice in his heart, Cheng Lin braved the light rain, waved his hand, and a huge light gate appeared in the darkness.

This light gate seemed a little bigger than it was at the inn. It was about three meters tall and looked spectacular. When Cheng Lin was worried about how to transport the soil, the sudden change occurred.

I saw a huge suction suddenly coming from the light gate, almost sucking himself over, Cheng Lin was shocked and quickly stabilized his figure, condensed the Mental Energy into a bunch, plunged into the light gate, and the "tentacles" opened!

The next moment, the scene inside the initial space emerged in his mind.

I saw in that quiet space, the World Tree (sapling) seemed to sense the soil outside the door, and the whole thing was jumping for joy. The dense, bare roots on the ground danced like squid tentacles, and it looked quite scary.

As the roots danced, a strong suction force appeared, and only pieces of soil, stones, turf... were all sucked in.

"Is the desire to survive so strong?" After seeing the situation clearly, Cheng Lin broke off his tentacles, opened his eyes, and couldn't help but vomit. This world tree is also fighting to survive, "How to say? You are already a mature plant. The tree is gone, so learn to suck the soil by yourself?"

Strangely speaking, this suction seems to be quite picky. The dirt, plants, and fine stones that fell from the mountain are not rejected, but the bricks, tiles and iron sheets of the collapsed houses are sucked in after a few seconds, and again Spit it out.

Cheng Lin was happy to look at it, and he simply hugged his shoulders to supervise.

When a place absorbs light, he closes the light door, reopens it in another place, and continues to suck...

I saw countless pieces of soil and stone in the darkness being swallowed by a weird light door, and it looked strange.

The rumbling sound of sucking soil was extremely clear in the silent night sky, like thunder. The construction team and the remaining villagers were awakened from their sleep and rushed here, but they didn’t wait for them to see the situation clearly. Will be stunned by Cheng Lin with a "mental storm".

It's just that the constant presence of people made him very irritable, so he simply ran around the village with his head stuffed, fainting everyone and the poultry, cats and dogs.

...

...

"What is this? It collapsed again?"

In a house in the village that is still intact.

The village chief put on his clothes, opened the door, and stood in the small courtyard and looked over there.

As a grassroots leader, he was determined to stay this time and did not move to the temporary resettlement camp.

"It didn't rain heavily either, can't it, 80% of them started work overnight?" The village chief's wife also opened the door and walked out to look at the sky, muttering.

"Something's wrong... I'll take a look, you look at the house." The village head frowned, thinking that this is not easy.

"Take an umbrella..."

As they were talking, all of a sudden, the two felt that a strong sense of fatigue was coming, their eyelids couldn't hold back, and in a blink of an eye, they fell to the ground and fell asleep.

Outside the courtyard.

Cheng Lin, dressed in black, easily stepped over the wall and entered the yard. He glanced at the old couple on the ground, sighed, and put them back in the house. "The last two people... Can you work quietly this time?"

...

The night sky was drizzling.

The rumbling sound continued for a while before finally disappearing.

Then fell silent.

...

August is still midsummer, and the sky is bright early.

Before five o'clock the next day, the outside was shining and bright.

"Ouch..."

The village chief got up in a daze, first glanced at his snoring wife next to him, and then he heard the voices of many people talking outside the yard, which seemed to be very lively.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

The village chief hurried out and saw a group of people talking in a mess.

"Look! Over there!" A young man pointed forward.

Because of the daybreak, the village is so small that one can see the other side clearly when standing here.

The village chief glanced at it, and then he was stunned. The next moment couldn't help but shivered, his eyes widened, and he shouted, "Where is the soil in our village? Is the soil gone?!"
