Survival [End Times]
141, Real World 18 (double update)
Even though Yu Heng could see some of Zeng Xinglu's thoughts, he didn't take it to heart. Because Dong Jianlan was there and Lin Minglei was keeping a close eye on Professor Zhen Weiyu, he no longer paid much attention to that place.
His mind was now mainly focused on two things.
The first was to guard against the Tu family. Although from the current point of view, there seemed to be no intention of attacking there.
The second was planting. He didn't know whether the seeds brought from home could survive in this land, so he needed to do some seed testing first.
Speaking of seed testing, although he worked in the Academy of Sciences in the last mission world, he was not in the field of agronomy. But after all, he learned a little bit from what he saw and heard.
Unfortunately, none of the seeds brought from his hometown were really useful.
He had no choice but to take out the seeds he had collected in the empty city before to experiment.
While he was busy, Yu's mother came back from teaching Zhen Weiyu and whispered to him.
"Bao'er, that Zeng Xinglu has been asking about our life outside."
Yu Heng smiled: "Then what did you say?"
Yu's mother curled her lips: "As if no one could see his thoughts. This is not something shameful. He asked secretly, so we told others openly. It's good for them to hear it. If they have the opportunity to go out again in the future, they will have some experience."
Speaking of which, Yu's mother has always had a good personality and rarely loses her temper. It was just that she didn't get along with the neighbor next door in the community before, and she tolerated him for many years. It was only after the disaster that she saw that the man was still taking advantage of her as if it was her right that she finally broke up with him.
So Zeng Xinglu was able to make Yu's mother have a very bad impression of him in the past few days. She couldn't help showing a disgusted expression when talking about him. He is really a very talented person.
Yu Heng couldn't help asking, "Mom, why do you hate him so much?"
"I just heard that he told others that he had begged you for a long time before you agreed to let Jianlan and others teach them Zhenweiyu. Isn't this nonsense?"
Yu Heng comforted her, "If you don't like him, just ignore him."
"I know that too, but... you will know if you come and listen. Even Jianlan and Yuman, who are so good-tempered, are annoyed by him."
Yu Heng was surprised, so she put down her work and went to listen in on the next class. Only then did she understand why her mother's expression was so hard to describe.
The formal class was divided into three classes, and each person taught one class.
Yu's mother, Dong Jianlan and Xu Yuman were very careful and patient women, and there was no problem in teaching. At the beginning, Yu Heng didn't see anything wrong. She only saw Zeng Xinglu very actively asking questions and solving doubts, and his voice was loud when practicing, suppressing the voices of others.
This was nothing, until the free practice between classes, when Yu's mother and the others corrected them one by one -
To be honest, Zeng Xinglu had learned really well, so he was very comfortable and did the work of Yu's mother and the other two by himself.
"Hey, Xiao Chen, wait for me, I'll explain it to you!"
"Miss Xu, your explanation is not right, right? I remember Aunt Yu didn't say that in class just now... Oops, did I remember it wrong? Sorry, hahaha."
"Hey, Xiao Zhen, why are you wrong again? Isn't this what Miss Dong just said? If you are wrong again, you will be sorry to Miss Dong, hurry up and apologize to Miss Dong..."
No matter how you look at it, Yu Heng and the others are "outsiders", Zeng Xinglu is their own person, their boss, and those students dare not offend him. Anyway, Zeng Xinglu can do what the teachers can do, so just listen to it!
Xu Yuman is going to be annoyed to death by him!
Yu Heng just shook his head and waited for them to come back and said, "If he wants to teach, let him teach. Don't chase them to teach. If they have any questions, they can come to you themselves."
Yu's mother and the others had long been fed up, so they would end the get out of class as soon as they finished teaching and go back to their own territory to do housework or rest.
When the wood from Zengxing Road was transported in batches, they could start to build fences, spread repellents and other things to mark the territory.
After the first batch of vegetable seeds were planted, Yu Heng finally agreed to meet with the head of the Tu family.
He only took Cui Nan with him. The Tu family mansion was actually not far from the mountain wall, just on the hillside about two kilometers ahead.
This place seemed to be similar to the mountain wall, and no beasts approached.
The mansion looked very new, as if it had just been built and had not been exposed to wind and rain.
Entering the mansion, there was no scene of servants, and it was even a little deserted.
Coming to a courtyard, Yu Heng saw clearly that the plaque read "Council Hall".
Entering the hall, there were five people in total. Although they were not young, they looked very strong and tall.
The steward Tu Qi who led the way introduced: "This is the head of our Tu family, and the other four are the stewards of the Tu family."
He then introduced Yu Heng to the five people.
Yu Heng greeted each other in turn: "I heard that this is your Tu family's ancestral land early in the morning. I came here by chance. I have always wanted to communicate with the head of the Tu family. Until today, I finally got my wish."
The head of the Tu family laughed: "I have been friends with you for a long time!"
The two exchanged a few polite words and sat down to drink tea separately.
Yu Heng stopped the small talk and went straight to the point: "Head of the Tu family, do you really understand your ancestral land?"
The head of the Tu family was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was looking for trouble. But at first glance, he saw that his expression was very serious.
He nodded and teased: "Does Boss Yu know?"
Yu Heng also laughed: "Then why don't you know where we came from?"
The head of the Tu family was really confused now. What does where they came from have to do with their ancestral land?
He asked, but the other party changed the subject: "We are human beings like you. We may meet more people who can't speak Zhenwei language in the future. I hope you won't kill people as demons."
"Before, we didn't speak the language, so we had misunderstandings. But you also lost some people, so we're even. Now everyone is taking refuge here, so it's not good to make enemies again. What do you think, Master Tu?"
If there hadn't been the previous question, Master Tu would have taken this opportunity and agreed.
But what is the relationship between these people and the Tu family's ancestral land? Where did they come from? Who are they?
Why can't some of them understand or speak Zhenwei language? On this road, even in the most remote mountain corners, people speak Zhenwei language with local dialect characteristics.
If these questions are not clarified, he will definitely be unable to sleep or eat.
Facing the question from the head of the Tu family, Yu Heng asked back: "To be honest, I don't know much about the Tu family's ancestral land. Would the head of the Tu family introduce it to you?"
Several managers of the Tu family stood up at the same time, and their fierce attacking momentum suddenly burst out.
Yu Heng didn't care, and said with a smile: "If it's not convenient, forget it."
He pushed the gift on the table: "This is a gift for our first meeting. Please take care of me in the future. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
After he left, the six people of the Tu family sat down again.
"Too much! He actually intended to spy on the secrets of our ancestral land!"
"Brother, this man has a wolfish ambition and cannot be kept!"
"The ancestor left some things, I don't believe that I can't deal with his strange things!"
Facing the indignant brothers, the head of the Tu family raised his hand to stop: "Don't get excited. He just wants to exchange one for one, don't fall into his trap."
What's more serious is that others seem to have an unusual understanding of the ancestral land, and act as if it's dispensable.
Of course, he may be bluffing and deceiving them. But they had to take it seriously, this was their ancestral land!
"What should we do?"
"Wait a minute, let me think about it."
This trip was finally over, and Yu Heng felt a little relieved.
It was obvious that the Tu family had no intention of being enemies with them for the time being, which was good.
Cui Nan was there the whole time, and couldn't help asking: "Is it useful for you to deceive them so simply?"
"I don't know." Yu Heng shook his head: "If we can deceive them, we will win, and if we can't deceive them... we won't suffer any loss."
It was just a test of their attitude, and they probably couldn't really tell me the information about the so-called ancestral land.
It would be even better if they could be cautious because of what I said.
When they returned to the other side of the mountain wall, Yu's father and mother were staring at them eagerly, and saw Yu Heng and Cui Nan rushing to meet them.
"Are you okay?"
"Don't worry, you guys are done with get out of class?"
Yu's father said, "What class? Your mom is worried about you, so the class is suspended."
Yu Heng put his arm around Yu's mother's shoulders and walked back: "Don't worry, it's settled. What are we having for lunch today?" He changed the subject.
"Instant noodles, boiled green vegetables, and barbecue." Yu's mother answered.
"It sounds delicious, thank you for your hard work, mom."
"Not hard." Yu's mother touched his face, "I made you some chrysanthemum water and brought it to you."
Zeng Xinglu watched Yu Heng and the others return safely, and he didn't know what he felt in his heart.
A kind of relief... but also a little regretful?
Lunch was especially delicious. The boiled green vegetables were the first batch of vegetables they harvested after sowing. They were a variety of vegetables from the Zhenwei Continent, very crisp and delicious.
Life finally got back on track.
I lived here for more than a month, and nothing major happened during that time.
Even Yu Heng's idea of meeting other fellow villagers didn't happen. There were so many people on the beach at that time, and no one knew where they were thrown to by the mysterious force.
The area where they were active was unknown as to how large the area of the Tu family's ancestral land was.
Two months later, the Tu family couldn't help wanting to go out to see what was happening outside, and Yu Heng and his team also went out with the Tu family.
After going out, they found that the Beicang City had been cleaned up, and Yu Heng also felt that the oppressive and dark atmosphere in the air had disappeared, replaced by a peaceful and calm atmosphere.
Being in such an atmosphere, the soul felt comfortable.
"Did the demon cultivator... leave?"
"Oh, why do I feel so comfortable..."
There was no one in the whole city. They originally planned to go out to find out the situation, but fortunately they saw a notice at the gate of Beicang City before leaving.
Seeing the notice, everyone exclaimed!
There was no other reason. The notice was full of spiritual light, and it was colorful. It was called a notice, but it was not paper. It was more like an invisible film that could not be touched.
It stood at the gate of the city. They walked through it and turned around to look at the handwriting on it.
It said that the evil cultivators in Xizhou had been eliminated, and the dead city had been purified by the famous Buddhist monks of the Pagoda Gate in Nanzhou. Xizhou was worry-free and everyone could live in peace.
The signature was Xuanyang Zong.
"This is a great joy!"
"Let's go back and tell everyone this good news!"
Yu Heng and the Tu family hurried back.
Out of their sight, the Xuanyang Zong treasure ship, which was on its last round of patrol, happened to pass through this area.
For more than two months, it's hard for Xuanyang Zong to live.
Fortunately, the matter has come to an end now. Other helpers have withdrawn, and only the people of Xuanyang Sect are still finishing up: patrolling, calming people's hearts...
Even the notices at each city gate are not ordinary means. They are specially customized from the Qianhe Tower, which is good at tricks. It is the best tool to detect demonic energy. As long as there are demon cultivators entering in the future, Xuanyang Sect will be able to get the news and rescue in time.
For this, Xuanyang Sect has been discussing in a meeting and decided to establish a branch in Xizhou.
This is not Xuanyang Sect's daily good deeds, but to reduce the impact of this accident on Xuanyang Sect and accumulate merits.
This treasure ship that came to Xizhou the earliest is currently responsible for Xuanyang Sect's work in Xizhou before the branch is established.
Master Liu Zhen is also on it.
Suddenly, he felt a sudden movement of spiritual energy.
If this was in Dongzhou or Nanzhou and Beizhou, there would be spiritual energy between breaths, and spiritual energy is not rare at all. Such a little flow would not attract attention at all.
Spiritual veins attract cultivators, but this is Xizhou!
For them, the spiritual energy desert is very barren.
Liu Zhen stood up: "Stop the treasure ship!"
He was originally the leader of a peak in the inner sect of Xuanyang Sect, so he naturally obeyed orders.
The treasure ship stopped on a city wall, and it was obvious that it had just flown through the city. He released his spiritual sense to take a closer look and soon locked the target.
"Get off the ship!"
After Yu Heng and his friends went back, they told everyone the news. Although most people were very happy, they were not very excited to go out. The previous demon cultivator incident was too horrifying.
"If you want to stay, you definitely can't live like this." Living in a straw hut for many years is harmful to the body. And this is the ancestral land of the Tu family. Will they let them live there?
Yu Heng asked his parents: "Mom and Dad, what do you think?"
If his parents don't want to go out, he will find a way to control the right to enter and exit this place.
This time, Yu's mother did not say she would listen to him. The couple thought about it and said, "Let's stay here. It's too dangerous outside." They are not afraid of death when they are old, but their son is still so young!
While they are discussing here, the Tu family is also discussing. They never thought about living here for a long time from the beginning. Now that something happened outside, they must go out.
But the most important thing now is how to deal with those outsiders?
The people inside were thinking about a thousand things, but the Xuanyang Sect outside had already found the source of spiritual energy.
They approached the slaughterhouse with some disdain. The people present were all successful in cultivation and had never been to such a salty place.
"This is it. There is indeed a very subtle spiritual energy."
They walked into the corridor, waved their hands to open the iron fence, and after checking at the end, Master Liu Zhen snorted: "A trifle."
It was easy to destroy the ban that the Tu family's ancestors had set up hundreds of years ago with all their efforts.
In fact, the ban had been loosened after hundreds of years, and the Tu family had no outstanding descendants embarking on the immortal path, so the ban had never been maintained and reinforced, which was why the air inside flowed out when everyone entered and exited just now.
It just so happened that Xuanyang Sect was patrolling here - the entire Xizhou area is vast, and it can only be said that it was fate that they happened to meet.
When Liu Zhen and his friends came in, Yu Heng and his friends were discussing in two groups, one of them and the other on Zeng Xinglu's side.
Suddenly, they saw a group of people with amazing immortal style and momentum appear, and they were all stunned.
Liu Zhen ordered the disciples around him to send Yu Heng and his friends out first: "Let's settle them in the empty city outside."
"Excuse me, are you immortals from Xuanyang Sect?" Yu Heng stood up and asked.
"Yes, you have some sense." Master Liu Zhen ordered the disciple named Chen Lu to handle the affairs of these people, and he glanced at Yu Heng after hearing this.
"Come out with us."
Yu Heng could see that these people did not take him seriously - that was arrogance from the inside out, not pretense.
He did not say anything more, but he was actually very surprised! How did these immortals get in? Would they do something bad to them?
Zeng Xinglu asked as he walked: "Where did the immortals come from? Are they here to rescue us?..."
He learned Zhen Wei well, and he asked questions in excitement without stuttering.
"Stop making noises and be quiet."
Chen Lu glanced at him lightly, and the pressure spread, which immediately suppressed Zeng Xinglu's back and sweat oozed from his forehead.
They were placed in an empty hotel, with only two cultivators watching them.
Fortunately, the two cultivators did not intend to monitor them, and they just sat in the lobby downstairs.
Yu Heng and the others dared to let go of their restraints and talk.
"Oh my god, these are cultivators? Really, really-"
"Handsome!"
"Hahaha..."
Xu Yuman whispered, "I think they are a little scary." When I looked at them, it seemed like I was looking at some garbage?
Zeng Xinglu said, "What are you talking about? Be careful that the immortal will get angry!"
During this period of learning Zhenwei language, Yu's mother and others also talked about the cultivation of immortals on this continent. Of course, they also knew how rare it was to meet immortals in Xizhou.
"So lucky! Do you think the immortal will accept us as disciples?" Zeng Xinglu was beaming with joy.
But there were still a few people as optimistic as Zeng Xinglu, and most people were worried.
This feeling was like an ant facing an elephant, life and death were not up to them.
Yu Heng and his friends stayed here. Xuanyang Sect did not provide meals, so they cooked their own meals.
In the next two days, they began to welcome surprises!
People were sent over one after another, and the hotel was soon full, and the newcomers were arranged to live in nearby houses.
These people were all from the other side of the sea!
Among them were many panicked Z countrymen. Because they could not speak the language, they were forced to be sent out after being found by the people of Xuanyang Sect.
It seemed that Xuanyang Sect was patrolling inside and sent everyone out.
Xu Yuman ran out every day to see if her parents were among the newly sent people.
Among these people, there were people from various countries, and it was also obvious that some lived well and some lived poorly.
The whole Beicang City came alive again.
Later, even the two monks downstairs of this hotel disappeared. But they also found that they could not leave the city.
It should be the method of the immortals.
Zeng Xinglu took people to search for supplies in the city, and those who were concerned about Yu Heng's team also went out to find relatives and friends.
Yu Heng, his parents and Cui Nan had nothing to do, so they started to teach the local language to the newcomers.
Yu's father and mother were very happy to see so many fellow countrymen.
Older people are more attached to their hometowns. If they can't go back to their hometowns, they will feel very close to their hometown people.
After chatting with these people, I found out that some of them had very miserable experiences.
That place is really very big, with all kinds of landforms: swamps, deserts, lava areas... Although most of it is forest, some people were swept into extremely dangerous areas.
Those who can survive have all experienced life and death moments, so their momentum is different from others, and they look more fierce and fierce.
"I was being chased by a sawtooth tiger. I thought I was dead this time, but I didn't expect that a ray of light came over and the tiger died completely."
The speaker was a young woman. Although she was young, she was covered with scars and had many scars on her face.
One of her hands was gone from the elbow down, but she smiled coolly and was very serious about learning Zhenwei language.
Everyone said she was lucky.
The woman smiled and said, "I never thought that one day I would be able to sit so peacefully and experience the feeling of attending classes again."
Some people also had some adventures: "I landed on a very high mountain. I felt like I was going to be roasted before I landed. As soon as I landed, my shoes were burned... Fortunately, a big bird passed by and took me away! I always wanted to thank it, but it took me to the ground and left."
Although the beasts in that forest were very fierce, some of them were kind.
After class, everyone was talking to each other. In addition to their own life experiences, they were also guessing about the future.
"It looks like Xuanyang Sect must have taken a fancy to that place."
Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken so much effort to pull the people out. Even if Yu Heng didn't know how many people had successfully crossed the sea, the number of people from their country who landed at that place alone was hundreds of thousands. This is not a small project.
"Although living here is not bad, I still want to go home."
This aroused the bitterness in many people's eyes. Who doesn't miss home?
"If that place is really occupied by Xuanyang Sect, can... can they send us home?"
After returning to the hotel, Yu Heng looked at his parents' expressions and knew that they were also tempted.
But he was a little worried, always feeling that there was a close connection between their home and the Tu family's ancestral land here.
If Xuanyang Sect wants to occupy the Tu family's ancestral land, can they let go of their hometown?
But this is just his guess, there is no need to say it now to make his parents feel depressed. It's good to be happy for a while.
Two days later, Yu Heng and his friends were told to move to the nearest empty city nearby because people were constantly being sent out of the Tu family's ancestral land.
This small town in the north of Xizhou, which used to have a total population of only 10,000 or 20,000, can't accommodate so many people.
In addition, the Tu family's ancestral land is here, so it is most convenient to resettle nearby. So they had to let these earliest residents move first.
Yu Heng and his friends didn't have much to linger on, so they led their horses and rode their donkeys and followed the Xuanyang Sect monks who led the way.
Yu Heng was even a little happy in his heart. The more people come out, it proves that there are more flames in their hometown. As long as people are still alive, the roots can continue to grow anywhere!
