The wise man mentioned in the stone carving is actually An Jingzhi. The new continent they discovered later was also the most primitive, the Himalayas that had just risen from the seabed through plate squeezing.

He felt that after the planetary cleansing was completed, he would lead the remaining survivors to build a new civilization on the new continent.

The name Zero Civilization was not given by him, but was named by their descendants based on the stories of their ancestors.

Without the constraints of the planet, An Jingzhi led everyone to climb the technology tree very smoothly.

After seeing off the three old men and Xin Ruoyao, he formulated future development plans and passed away one after another.

After returning to the system space, An Jingzhi was a little curious whether these survivors could rebuild human civilization.

"Xiao Qi, send me to this small world five hundred years from now."

Xiao Qi: [Okay.]

There was a flash under his feet, and An Jingzhi suddenly appeared floating in the sky.

He looked at the buildings in the air in a suspended manner.

He discovered that there was a special magnetic force under his feet that allowed him to stand in the air.

The entire sky is like a floor, with buildings everywhere, like a city in the sky.

“It seems that this place has developed better than I thought.”

An Jingzhi felt a little relieved, after all, he was the one who brought the company up step by step.

"Um?"

Feeling unusual fluctuations coming from the sky and underground.

An Jingzhi frowned. Is a new round of planetary cleansing about to begin?

Just when he was wondering, he suddenly found that all the buildings in front of him were either floating up or sinking, and finally pieced together into a huge circular plate.

A huge engine also emerged underneath, which is a dark matter thruster. Have they studied the dark matter in the universe?

Even An Jingzhi himself was a little surprised by this progress.

He didn't know that the reason why the Zero Civilization studied dark matter in the universe was actually because of the divine revelation left by An Jingzhi. He recorded his speculation about natural disasters.

Later generations began to study the laws of the universe and made initial progress in the use of dark matter.

While he was thinking, a number of circular spacecraft had gathered in the distant sky.

An Jingzhi quietly came to the highest command center and found that there was order in the chaos.

"Commander, all supplies have been stored, the people have been gathered, and the troops have been assembled."

The commander's eyes were deep as he stared intently at the dark universe on the screen. "The divine revelation is correct. After hundreds of years of research, we have discovered the laws of existence in the universe."

"Resources are limited. The development of civilization will consume the remaining resources. Once all resources are exhausted, or the planet can no longer afford large-scale collection, it will enter a state of self-preservation and undergo a major cleansing."

"To ensure the development of civilization, we must continue to grow stronger and plunder other people's resources."

"Now, after all our efforts in excavation, this planet can no longer support our civilization. It is time to find a new place to live."

"If we continue to stay here, our technology will continue to lock up. It's time to set out and find a way to survive."

"Commander," a middle-aged woman said hurriedly, "Except for the volunteers who will remain on the planet, everyone else is ready and can depart at any time."

"Three minutes later, human, set off!"

"yes!"

All the orders were issued layer by layer, and the remaining two minutes were the last time for everyone to take a look at this planet.

When I come back next time, maybe this planet will have a new owner.

"Humanity, rebirth or destruction." The commander looked at the earth, mountains and rivers beneath his feet.

Suddenly, he turned his head sharply, "No one?"

An Jingzhi, who was floating in the air, raised his eyebrows slightly. This commander's sixth sense was quite sensitive.

【Go back, Xiaoqi.】

Since they have already guessed the survival rules of this universe, what awaits them next will be endless tests, and how long they can survive depends only on themselves.

It's time to move on to the next task.

…

"How is it? It's been more than half a year since I came back, and Jingzhi still hasn't figured out a solution?"

Several people gathered under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village.

Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "He wasn't awake when I went there."

"Is Jing Zhi trying to fool us?" someone questioned.

"I didn't believe it at first," Wu Wenping said, "but it's been more than half a year now, and he's come home and said he wants to lead our hometown to prosperity."

"But he just eats and sleeps every day. If I tell anyone about this, it won't be credible."

"That's right, how can you help us get rich if you just stay at home playing on the computer?"

Ma Dasao said, "Is he researching something? I heard that you can sell things on computers and mobile phones now. Maybe Jingzhi is researching this thing."

"That doesn't require half a year of research, does it?" Mrs. Gu was a little confused.

In fact, she had some vague guesses in her heart. She felt that An Jingzhi returned to his hometown because he could no longer make it outside, so he returned home under the slogan of leading his hometown out of poverty and becoming rich so that he could rely on his parents.

If you really wanted to help your family and fellow villagers get out of poverty and become rich, you would have come back the year you graduated or one or two years ago. Why did you come back three or four years after graduation?

Isn’t it just that you can’t make it out there?

Of course, she was just thinking this in her heart. She didn't want to use such bad thoughts to speculate about college students who wanted to help their fellow villagers get rich.

Uncle Yu suddenly asked, "What major did Jingzhi go to study?"

Mrs. Gu: "It seems to be some kind of photography. I heard it's for taking pictures of people."

Wu Wenping was suddenly surprised: "What the hell? Taking photos of people, do I have to learn this?"

"Then if you pick up your phone, won't you just take a picture?"

"They teach at a university, so there must be a reason for that." Mrs. Gu rolled her eyes and said, "You really did pick the right name, Wu Wenping. Not only does he not have a diploma, he's also uneducated."

Wu Wenping complained: "I am uneducated because my family has no money for education."

"Your family has no money for your education? Don't think I don't remember. We went to school together back then, and you were naughty and mischievous every day. Later, you stopped going on your own."

Mrs. Gu loves to study and wants to study, but there are too many children in the family, so she had no choice but to drop out of school. She has always disliked Wu Wenping and felt that Wu Wenping did not know how to appreciate his blessings.

…

The original owner was a college student, majoring in art.

It is now the 21st century, but their village is still a well-known poor village in the surrounding area.

In order to support an art student at university, the family sold everything they had, practically breaking even, and with the help of government student loans, they barely managed to get through college.

The original owner thought that after graduating from the photography department, he would be able to shoot advertisements and photos for people and earn tens of thousands of dollars.

But after graduation, he found that there were too many people and too little resources.

What's more, the original owner's professional level was only average.

If those in the directing department can't find jobs, they will come to compete with those in the photography department for jobs. People with ordinary skills like the original owner will have even less chance of finding work.

After barely making it out there for three or four years, he wanted to raise money to make a movie and switch careers to become a director, and then he set his sights on the villagers.
