Chapter 73 Ymir

Today we are selling noodles with sauerkraut. Imir moved quickly with the large kitchen knife in his hand, and peeled the potato skin directly. With just a few cuts, a smooth peeled potato appeared in front of him. Imir put the peeled potato into the water basin on his left hand, took a potato with his right hand, and continued to peel it.

When the basin was full of potatoes, he cut the potatoes into pieces and then into dices, and then cut the radish, tofu, and green onions. Fungus and meat were hard to find, so he had to mix them randomly. He should have beaten the egg liquid and fried the egg skin, but now he couldn't find any eggs.

Dong Zhujun yawned as she walked into the kitchen. She was wearing a simple T-shirt and shorts, revealing her white legs. As soon as she entered the kitchen, her eyes lit up: "Wow, Xiaoyi, you are so diligent, you have already prepared the dishes."

Imir didn't say anything and continued with his work. Soon all the dishes were ready. "Open the shop?" he asked.

Dong Zhujun looked at the time and said, "Let's make the sauce first, and then we can start cooking."

Imir nodded and watched Dong Zhujun cook quietly.

Dong Zhujun put on an apron, tied her hair up, and started cooking. She loved cooking, and her movements in frying the sauce were very neat, lighting the fire, adding oil, frying the vegetables, and flipping the pan were all done in one go.

In the big pot, the boiling bone soup was white. Imir scooped out the first soup and used it to make noodles. This was the method he learned from Dong Zhujun, and the dough made in this way tasted the best.

After the dough was kneaded and the sauce was fried, the two officially opened the shop. Although they called it a shop, they only put a few tables and chairs under the awning. Even the kitchen was just a piece of flat ground with a stove and a pot. In this refuge area halfway up Cuiwei Mountain, food and kitchenware were scarce, and their noodle shop business was very good.

A middle-aged man came to the store, but not to eat noodles. Dong Zhujun set up two tree branches in the store and stretched a rope in the middle. Many people hung notes on it to look for their relatives who disappeared in the tsunami.

Seeing the middle-aged man hanging the note on the rope, Imir couldn't help but be distracted, thinking of what happened on the day of the tsunami.

When the tsunami hit, Imir was washing dishes in the noodle shop. He already knew the name of the boss lady, Dong Zhujun.

Dong Zhujun had no family, so she opened a noodle shop and never mentioned the past. Imir listened to the conversations of the guests in the noodle shop and learned many expressions of the people of the Blue Water Star. According to the Blue Water Star, Dong Zhujun was probably the kind of female classmate with a story.

Dong Zhujun was actually nice to Yimier. After getting along with her, Yimier realized that she was a soft-hearted woman. It was probably because she saw that he was almost starving that day that she gave him face, and because she saw that he was in such a state that she let him wash the dishes in exchange for food.

In three days, Imir became a skilled dishwasher. He had only one bowl left to wash when a scream came from outside: "Tsunami! Tsunami is coming!"

At the same time, Ymir, as a high-level spiritual being, discovered the abnormal fluctuations coming from the sea.

There is about to be a natural disaster, he realized, it was initiated by Yule, the growth of the axis of the planet needs to absorb a lot of earth power, the side effect is that there will be a natural disaster after the blue water planet lacks earth power.

We have to leave quickly, Imir thought. If he was alone, he could leave quickly, but... what about Dong Zhujun?

Imir hesitated, should he take her with him and escape?

At this time, Dong Zhujun's hurried footsteps were heard, and then became farther and farther away. She had already run out.

Imir couldn't explain how he felt. His own people had abandoned him, and he was picked up by Dong Zhujun. Now, was he abandoned again?

Forget it, at least I can finally get rid of the hell of washing dishes. Ymir continued to clean the dishes. This would be the last one he washed.

The dishes were not washed yet when the door was pushed open.

"What are you still standing there for? Move quickly!"

Yimier was startled when he saw Dong Zhujun rushing in, dragging a kayak with a rope net in her hand. Did she go out just now to get this kayak?

The day Dong Zhujun picked up Yimier and brought him to the kitchen, she thought Yimier was a little silly, but Yimier washed the dishes very cleanly, was tall and good-looking, so he was silly, maybe all his nutrition was spent on his appearance. But now, Dong Zhujun looked at the silly guy in her store and felt very disappointed: "Why are you standing there? Move it quickly!"

She hurried to move the big iron pot in the kitchen, which was for her to eat. The iron pot was very heavy, and Dong Zhujun had already consumed a lot of energy in finding a kayak, so she didn't even have time to pick up the iron pot.

A big hand reached out from the side and lifted the iron pot easily: "I'll do it, you take care of the light stuff." Imir said.

Time was urgent, and the two quickly swept the kitchen utensils and food from the refrigerator into the kayak. At this time, the water level had risen to the thighs, and Imir pushed the kayak out of the store.

He asked Dong Zhujun to stay where she was and guard the kayak, while he ran to the store several times to continue moving the ingredients.

At this time, the water had risen to his chest. Imir did not go back to the store. He stayed outside the store with Dong Zhujun, pulling the kayak.

Imir said, "When the water level rises a little more, we will leave."

Dong Zhujun said anxiously, "Is it possible?" As she calmed down, she became more and more panicked.

“Yes,” said Ymir.

Even though she knew that Imir was just comforting her, Dong Zhujun felt a lot more at ease.

The water began to rise again. Imir pulled Dong Zhujun and carried her up a big tree nearby. He swam back in the water, pulled the kayak over, and then climbed up the tree.

Soon, the water level rose to the height of a building.

The kayak was completely floating on the water.

Imir said decisively: "Let's go."

He and Dong Zhujun got into the kayak. Fortunately, the kayak could seat six people, so it could carry so many kitchen utensils and ingredients.

Imir picked up the oar and started paddling, and Dong Zhujun followed suit.

"There is a ten-story building next to it. Let's row over there first," said Dong Zhujun.

Yimir shook his head and said, "Go directly to Cuiwei Mountain."

Dong Zhujun couldn't believe it. Cuiwei Mountain was at least 20 kilometers away from here. In such a hasty tsunami, why didn't they take shelter quickly?

Yimier met her puzzled look and said, "This tsunami won't recede so easily. It's safer to go directly to Cuiwei Mountain for refuge."

Seeing that Imir insisted, Dong Zhujun didn't know why, but she believed him. After spending some time with Imir, Dong Zhujun realized that the boy was a little bit stupid and didn't even know a lot of common sense, but on the other hand, he seemed to be not an ordinary person and had abilities that ordinary people didn't have.

Dong Zhujun suspected that he was an evolver. But how could an evolver not even be able to take out money for meals, and even have to work to pay off his debts?

The water level was rising higher and higher. Dong Zhujun gritted her teeth and started rowing with Imir.

Ymir was very strong and paddled very fast, so the kayak floated on the water.

It was also because of Imir's insistence that they rowed to a high-rise building halfway to rest before the first wave of tsunami arrived. Taking advantage of the short gap when the tsunami calmed down, they quickly rowed to Cuiwei Mountain.

Dong Zhujun was extremely grateful. Although the government sent a rescue team, only a few people were saved, and most people had to save themselves. Fortunately, Imir reacted in time and made the right decision, so he was able to move to Cuiwei Mountain. If they did not row the boat but stayed where they were during the calm period before the tsunami, they would not be able to reach Cuiwei Mountain in just a few hours after the tsunami.

Dong Zhujun was a good cook. She brought food and kitchen utensils. Dong Zhujun and Yimier set up a sunshade next to the hotel and started selling noodles outdoors. Yimier built the sunshade by cutting down trees in Cuiwei Mountain and using bark, grass and wooden boards to build the shed, which was then covered with a layer of plastic sheeting.

After the two of them went through hardships together, Dong Zhujun unknowingly regarded Yimier as a trustworthy friend. Yimier also gradually adapted to being a dishwasher.

It's hard to say what it feels like. On the mother planet, as a high-level spiritual body, Ymir only needed to replenish energy to survive. After arriving on the Blue Planet, Lu Maoyan also prepared a lot of food for him. But what he likes most is to eat hot food with Dong Zhujun while chatting about those trivial joys. There is always a strange warmth in his heart, as if his heart is full.

Ymir thought, if the home that the people of the Blue Water Planet were talking about was a place where they wanted to stay, then now he seemed to have a home.

------------------------------------------------------

The relief organization was very busy today, with medical researchers from Noah doing voluntary physical examinations for the children.

In the lobby on the first floor, all the children who had lost their loved ones were lined up in several teams to be examined one by one. Each medical researcher was accompanied by an assistant to help organize the equipment and comfort the children.

Tian Mingyue stood against the wall. The assistants who came today were all evolvers from the Noah Action Team.

For three consecutive days, under the surveillance of the Noah Action Team, no child of the relief organization has gone missing. The murderer who kidnapped the children was very patient.

Tian Mingyue was anxious, wondering if the missing children could survive. She had to look for new clues.

Her cell phone rang. It was the old man asking her to go home for dinner. Tian Mingyue was reluctant, but had to go back.

Leaving the scene to his deputy, Tian Mingyue returned to the top of the mountain.

Tian Hanwen has gray hair, is in good spirits and has an extraordinary bearing. He was the top leader of Haicheng before the natural disaster. He is very strict with his two children, Tian Jiaoyang and Tian Mingyue. He requires that the three of them must have dinner together every Sunday night.

On the large table, the servants placed meals for everyone.

The father, son, and daughter each started eating. There was no sound of chewing, and no conversation.

After Tian Mingyue finished her meal, she walked out, and Tian Jiaoyang went out with her. It seemed that he didn't want to come back for dinner either.

The two walked out of Tian's house and continued walking along the path on the top of the mountain.

Tian Jiaoyang asked her, "How's your work going recently?"

"It went pretty smoothly." Tian Mingyue said casually. She and her brother had little in common.

"Does Noah have enough manpower?" Tian Jiaoyang asked.

"What's wrong?" Tian Mingyue felt strange. Why did Tian Jiaoyang suddenly ask this? Whether Noah had enough manpower had nothing to do with Tian Jiaoyang. He suddenly mentioned it, so there must be something wrong.

Tian Jiaoyang said: "Someone reported you for wasting manpower."

Tian Mingyue stopped and asked him: "Did the informant give a reason?"

"No, I've already settled the matter. You should be more low-key and let go of things that need to be let go." Tian Jiaoyang said.

The words seemed kind, but the implication was very harsh. Tian Mingyue thought, was he accusing me of meddling in other people's business and forcing myself to take the lead? She recalled what she had done recently, and the only thing she could think of was arranging for people to go to the relief organization for a physical examination.

But why would Tian Jiaoyang let her put this matter aside?

This shows that Tian Jiaoyang doesn't want her to pay attention to the relief organization.

"You..." Tian Mingyue couldn't believe it and didn't know how to ask. She and her brother had nothing in common, but she didn't expect her brother to be such a bad person.

Tian Jiaoyang looked at her and smiled gently: "You are my sister, I don't want to see you get hurt."

He turned and left, thinking that this was the final warning to her. The Axis of the Planet had entered the third stage, and he had to use more energy from the superpowers to make the Axis of the Planet produce the Divine Fluid.

Tian Mingyue understood everything, and her hands and feet went cold. Tian Jiaoyang was probably involved in the kidnapping of the child. He was even so confident. Was he the mastermind? Why was he so confident? Who was supporting him?

Tian Mingyue stood there in a daze. It was unknown how much time had passed before she left.

The night is getting darker.

Tian Mingyue quietly approached the mobile home where Tian Jiaoyang lived.

There are very few places to hide people on the top of the mountain. If Tian Jiaoyang was really involved in the disappearance of the children, or even the mastermind, then perhaps these children were hiding in his home.

Those children have been missing for a long time. This matter can't be delayed any longer. Tian Mingyue must take the risk and check it out.

Under the moonlight, her body became thinner and thinner, and finally stretched into a black shadow. Then it flowed silently from the window. At this time, Tian Jiaoyang would always watch the moon and the stars in the newly built courtyard outside the mobile home. Watching the stars was a hobby he suddenly had recently.

Tian Mingyue's ability is shadow transformation. This is a rare auxiliary ability. It is also her biggest reliance when she decided to investigate on her own.

Tian Mingyue carefully hid herself and searched the rooms inside. Soon, she found the locked bedroom and carefully slipped in through the crack of the door.

Tian Mingyue saw the scene in the room clearly. Feng Tingting and a boy, who was the boy who had just awakened the fire power that day, were covered with strange roots, just right for the light cocoon in the middle to absorb.

Tian Mingyue suddenly remembered the Yangcheng incident that Yu Ziqiu had informed her of in an encrypted email, and also remembered Imir that Gu Nian had come to Haicheng to look for.

The Bethida sect was right under his nose, and was still continuing to cultivate that strange cocoon of light.

Tian Mingyue's whole body was shining, and many thoughts quickly turned in her mind. Is Tian Jiaoyang the biggest leader of the Beshida sect in Haicheng? Does he have a higher-ranking protector in Haicheng? Wait, Tian Jiaoyang is so fearless, could it be that the old man is also a member of this sect?

Tian Mingyue suddenly remembered that Tian Jiaoyang supported her in setting up a relief organization. She was very surprised at that time. Tian Jiaoyang firmly believed in social Darwinism, that the strong survive and the weak are eliminated, so why would he help orphans? Now she realized that perhaps Tian Jiaoyang had already been planning to target these children at that time.

Child Evolvers are always easier to deal with than adult Evolvers. The disappearance of orphans is easier to conceal.

Tian Mingyue felt a chill down her spine.

She took a deep breath and looked forward carefully.

The boy's face was blue and his lips were bruised. If you didn't look carefully, you could hardly feel his breathing. He was already dying.

Feng Tingting's condition was slightly better. What I mean by slightly better is that if you look carefully on her face, you can find a little blood color, and her hands and feet occasionally struggle.

Both children's hands and feet were tied, their eyes were covered, and cloth strips were stuffed into their mouths.

When Tian Mingyue saw the thick layer of ashes under the two people, her eyes suddenly became stern. She was sure that it was ashes.

She couldn't imagine how many children had died in this closed room.

If no action is taken, these two children will surely die.

His subordinates informed Tian Jiaoyang that Tian Mingyue had already withdrawn the evolvers from the relief organization. Before Tian Jiaoyang had time to be happy, he heard his subordinates say that Tian Mingyue had also brought all the children with evolutionary tendencies into the Noah Research Institute.

Tian Jiaoyang's face suddenly turned gloomy.

The next second, he felt something moving in the room. It was the vibration coming from the axis of the planet. The vibration of the spirit body.

Tian Mingyue tried to destroy the roots to save the two children. She didn't have time to go back and find help. The two children could die at any time. Tian Mingyue had to try if she didn't want to have nightmares every night in the future.

She had just broken a few roots when she heard the door creak open.

Tian Jiaoyang walked in.

Good news, he is the only one. Tian Mingyue was prepared and attacked immediately, but Tian Mingyue was surprised to find that Tian Jiaoyang had become stronger. His ability was not as strong as hers before, but now he easily subdued her.

Tian Mingyue suddenly remembered the divine descent ritual that Yu Ziqiu had told her about. She had once thought it was nonsense, but the facts before her made her believe it.

"You are not Tian Jiaoyang." Tian Mingyue said.

Tian Jiaoyang shouted, "Shut up."

"What's your name?" Tian Mingyue asked.

Tian Jiaoyang stopped acting. All his expressions disappeared in an instant, as if this was really him, a monster that had adapted to human skin, his empty eyes looking particularly eerie in this mysterious room.

"Since you don't want to be a sister, then be a petri dish," he said.

Tian Jiaoyang put her under the cocoon of light, and the roots quickly penetrated and took root in her body.

Tian Mingyue began to feel dizzy. After the evolution, her physical strength improved significantly, but it couldn't last long.

She set a timed message before leaving. If she didn't come out within an hour, the message would be sent to Gu Nian.

Tian Mingyue can only pray that this message can bring the only chance of survival
