Chapter 149

The evil cultivator was not stupid and knew that he was being targeted because of the unusual things around him.

But what can he do? He still hasn't figured it out. This side of the Heavenly Dao is targeting him, but hasn't taken any measures against him.

And the target is so simple. As long as he doesn't want to stay in this world, he can directly return to the world of cultivation through the secret realm that has been opened in this world.

The reason why he hasn't gone back yet is simply because he still has not lost interest in this world.

The evil cultivator still hasn't figured it out. How could the spiritual energy in this small world of Jueling, which is obviously in the end of the Dharma period, suddenly revive? And how could the world be undergoing a major upgrade?

He still thinks that there must be some great opportunity in this world.

So, the evil cultivator wanted it and kept searching for it, but he still hasn't found it.

What he didn't know was that if it was him instead of Ying Huai who came to this world, he would probably have gotten what he wanted by now.

The Heavenly Dao of a small world without any spirits is still trapped by the Heavenly Dao in front of it. The weak and dormant small Heavenly Dao is tantamount to an opportunity to ascend to heaven for the cultivators who practice evil methods.

If he knew the situation, he would probably be beating his chest and stamping his feet.

Unfortunately, he didn't know, so he was still confused and looking for possible opportunities in this world that was about to be burned into a furnace.

He found a lot of useful things, but he still hadn't seen even a shadow of an opportunity that would be of great use to him.

Just when he was about to give up and decided to return to the world of immortal cultivation from the secret realm, the weather in this world changed drastically again.

In the beginning, the world's temperature rose, and the time that sunlight shone on the ground lengthened. During the hottest period later, the darkness never lasted more than three hours.

But just when people were almost accustomed to the heat, the sun, which was supposed to rise very quickly in the sky, disappeared after it set, and there was no sign of it rising in the next few days.

This time the change didn't seem as obvious as before, but looking at the moon hanging in the sky and the dark sky around, the people on the ground looking up at the sky knew that something was wrong.

If they could have endured it before, after all, the Flower-Growing Country had encountered all kinds of natural disasters since ancient times.

In an era when technology was not well developed, our ancestors were able to dig out a path with their own hands.

Nowadays, human technology is so advanced, and there are people with abilities to help. I personally believe that there is no difficulty that humans cannot overcome.

But just when they were so confident, the next change in the sky happened to the sun!

Ying Huai may have more say on the disappearance of the sun.

Before, when the sun was so strong, it didn’t affect him at all. After all, he was a demon plant, and he felt that the sun made him warm.

But now there is no sun. How could he, a demon plant that needs sun, not go to Xiao Tiandao?

Xiao Tiandao knew about what Ying Huai had asked him to do, but he felt guilty and refused to respond to Ying Huai.

Ying Huai searched for a long time, but Xiao Tiandao pretended to be dead and didn't react at all.

He didn't believe that Xiao Tiandao didn't know that he was looking for him.

Even when Xiao Tiandao was so busy before, he didn't forget to arrange for these mutated animals and plants on the blue planet to enter the secret realm.

Why is there no response to him now? It is probably because the disappearance of the sun is related to Xiao Tiandao, and he feels guilty, so he doesn't show up.

Thinking of this, Ying Huai inexplicably thought of a word he had used before to describe the naughty children in Daxi Village.

'Poor kid.'

I touched everything and now I've messed things up.

Little Tiandao doesn't know yet what Ying Huai vaguely guessed. When he was competing with the immortal cultivation world for the small secret realm, he still had time to take care of the cultivators who smuggled to Blue Star, but now he can't do that.

He was so happy to grab things that he annoyed the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Cultivation World, which had not reacted at all before.

At first, when a tiny thing pulled his hair, he ignored it because they were both part of the Heavenly Dao in the Three Thousand Worlds.

But the little guy didn't understand what was going on. Not only did he pull it out, he also kept pulling it out in one place. The little guy was so happy that he almost pulled out a small bald spot.

Later on, I started to not pay attention to Him anymore. Besides pulling Him out, I even had time to slack off.

It would be strange if the Heavenly Dao in the world of immortal cultivation was not angry, but it would be strange if it dealt with the small Heavenly Dao.

The inexplicable disappearance of the sun this time is a masterpiece of the heavenly way in the world of immortal cultivation.

With a wave of his hand, he grabbed the thing that Xiao Tiandao cared about most and hid it in one of the small worlds.

Seeing Xiao Tiandao's anxious look, He felt relieved and did not make any other moves.

Otherwise, the disaster facing the Blue Planet would be more than just the absence of the sun.

Moreover, after Tiandao in the world of immortal cultivation hid the sun, he did not stop Xiao Tiandao from looking for it in his small worlds.

It depends on when Xiao Tiandao can find the sun and steal it back secretly.

So now, facing Ying Huai's question, what else could Xiao Tiandao say? He said nothing and just kept looking for the hidden sun.

Xiao Tiandao was looking for him anxiously, and the humans on the blue planet were also in a panic.

At first they thought it was just a natural disaster like the previous one, just a side effect of this mutation, but when they observed the sky and found that the sun that had accompanied the blue planet for hundreds of millions of years was gone, they began to panic.

The previous natural disasters were temporary and they could overcome them, but now that the sun in the sky is gone, they can’t overcome it!

With their existing technology, they can build a similar thing for temporary use, but not on Blue Star!

What they are doing is just false prosperity and they will die sooner or later.

For fear of widespread panic and unnecessary casualties, the official top brass could only temporarily conceal the situation and then come to Ying Huai for help.

Ying Huai had no good solution for the time being and could only continue to call on Xiao Tiandao.

Some villagers in Daxi Village did not understand how serious the situation outside was. They were just worried that their godmother might not be able to bear it after seeing that there was no sun in the sky.

After all, my godmother is a plant. If she doesn't see the sun for days, will she suffocate to death because she can't photosynthesize?

Although they think it is a bit too serious, their concerns are real.

After the whole world went dark, the Blue Planet initially continued to move along its original orbit and was relatively stable. However, as time went on, it became increasingly apparent that the heat left over from the previous high temperatures on the Blue Planet was dissipating, and the warmth in the air was dropping sharply.

People don’t know whether the blue planet will be like the previous snowy weather and will be fine after that period of time.

Now they can only be strictly supervised by the authorities, put on the winter clothes that had been saved before, and wait for the official follow-up arrangements.

There are also some people who are more perceptive and, after seeing these official actions, guessed the possible changes that might happen later without sufficient information resources.

"We can only be thankful that the previous anomalous event on Blue Planet brought about those secret realms. Otherwise, we would have no chance of survival."

Existing technology is simply not capable of supporting interstellar travel and finding a habitable planet to live on.

At this time, the leaders were already making plans for the worst. If they really couldn't stay on the Blue Star anymore, they would take the people and migrate to the secret realm.

They also knew that the secret realm was full of dangers. There were so many monsters and mutated plants and animals that were much stronger than humans. It was not something that ordinary people could deal with, let alone the people with special abilities in the base.

What's more, monks from another world will be refreshed from time to time.

If so many ordinary people enter the secret realm, they will alarm the mutated animals and plants inside and attack them. Not many humans can survive.

The leaders of the base speculated on the possible outcomes for humanity after they were forced to enter the secret realm, and the resulting answers were not ideal.

"It hasn't come to that point yet. Godmother hasn't given a clear answer yet."

Listening to the slightly discouraging words of others, Leader No. 1 thought of the spiritual locust tree he had seen when he went to Daxi Village before.

They live on the blue planet, and the locust tree also lives on it. The crisis they are currently facing is also something the other party needs to experience.

Even though the locust tree's defense capabilities are stronger than theirs, they believe that the locust tree will also find it difficult to deal with a planetary-level disaster.

It was indeed tricky. After Ying Huai called out to Xiao Tiandao for a few days but there was no response, he decided to use the Tianyun Fruit that he had given to Xiao Tiandao as an anchor and go directly to find Xiao Tiandao.

Before, Xiao Tiandao always appeared in front of Ying Huai on his own initiative. Now that Ying Huai has to go find him on his own initiative, it is still a bit troublesome.

Fortunately, Xiao Tiandao has not yet completely escaped from the cage and is still half trapped.

As long as Ying Huai finds a place, even if Xiao Tiandao wants to hide, he may not be able to hide himself to the point where Ying Huai cannot find him.

Ying Huai was too busy to respond to the outside world, so Tang Rufeng and the others outside only received a warning from their godmother and did not respond again. The whole locust tree fell silent. If they had not experienced this once before when it rained, they would probably have been scared to death.

There is no problem in Daxi Village, after all, we have experienced it, but there is no problem on the official side.

It was the first time they encountered Ying Huai not responding, and they thought something had happened to Ying Huai.

They hurriedly sent agricultural experts from the base to check on Huaishu, but they found nothing abnormal. Finally, they heard some information from Captain Dai, and they were temporarily relieved.

The higher-ups were not sure what Ying Huai was doing specifically, and only had some vague guesses. It was precisely because of these guesses that they had a reason to maintain the situation at the base, which had become somewhat chaotic.

Ever since the sun disappeared from the sky, people have been living in darkness. It is okay for those with good intentions, as this is the only way to go for a short time, and they won't have any problems.

Those whose intentions are not so right are not so easy to deal with.

The ideas that emerged in their minds, set against the backdrop of the surrounding darkness, made them feel more relaxed and acted more naturally.

In just a few days, some people with ulterior motives started to make small moves. At first, they were suppressed by official people with abilities. Later, the higher-ups thought it was not a good idea, so they just waited for them to make mistakes and arrested them directly.

Of course, they only detained those who had no intention of hurting anyone. Those who intended to hurt others were stopped in time by official ability users and sent directly out of the base.

In the current environment, sending them out is no different from taking their lives.

Although there are no mutated animals and plants attacking us constantly outside, it is still extremely difficult to survive in an environment where we have nothing and the temperature is constantly dropping.

The evil cultivator who is still lingering on Blue Star has a lot to say about this.

He stayed behind in the beginning because he found that the world had undergone tremendous changes. He didn't know what had happened to the world, and it could have directly lost a star.

But it doesn't matter, he is not a person who worries about the country and the people.

He keenly smelled some opportunity in this great change.

With such a signal, the evil cultivators are here to seek opportunities, so it would be strange if they gave up.

If you have greed in your heart, it is natural that you will stay behind.

At first he didn't notice anything. It was just a little darker without the sunlight. He had encountered the same environment before in the world of immortal cultivation.

Those places are famous dangerous places in the world of immortal cultivation, but he was able to go in and come out safely, and he also encountered many opportunities there. The biggest opportunity was the martial arts he was practicing now.

In the world of immortal cultivation, where evil practitioners are regarded as a scourge, their techniques are strictly guarded against. The fact that he was able to obtain them was purely due to his good luck.

And now, he also believed that his luck would work in this very strange world.

Even when he knew that the world had undergone tremendous changes, he still did not leave, and still wanted to look for what he called an opportunity.

Just like now, he was riding on a flying sword, heading towards the Flower-Growing Country.

When asked why he came, of course it was because he had just come from a small country, and those who were killed by him told him about the situation in the Flower-Growing Country before they died.

It would be hard for him not to suspect that there was an opportunity in such a place that was in a completely different state from other countries after the mutation.

He didn't know what kind of opportunity it was yet. Thinking about what that person said, when disasters continued in other places and the country was already falling apart, the Flower-Growing Country completely controlled the situation, and not many people died in the subsequent natural disasters.

Before the evil cultivators appeared, many people suspected that the Flower-Growing Country possessed rare treasures.

The strongest mutant humans specially developed by foreign laboratories are also sent to the Flower-Growing Country as soon as the experiments are completed.

But in the end, those people didn't bring back any news.

As for the news about the locust tree that appeared on the Internet, they did not believe it.

It's not like they haven't seen mutated plants these days. Even some mutated plants don't actively attack people and have safe zones within a certain range. However, those plants are not necessarily friendly to humans.

So when some fragmentary news about the Flower Country was leaked, people outside did not believe it and thought it was a smokescreen released by the Flower Country's top leaders to cover up their real treasure.

After having this understanding, no matter what kind of news comes out later, no matter how incredible it seems but is actually true, they will no longer believe it.

And the man who told the Flower-Growing Country about the treasure before the evil cultivator was about to kill him, realized that he would not be able to survive when almost everyone in his own country was dead.

He said it just to bring disaster to the Flower Country.

After the mutation on Blue Planet, people in so many countries have been living a miserable life, living in fear all day long, and will eventually die.

How can those useless ordinary people in the Flower Country survive? And live so well?

Resentment and hatred drove him to death, and his heart was filled with malice.

How could the evil cultivator not know what was going on in the mind of the person he killed? He used this as nourishment to nourish himself.

He couldn't be sure whether what the person said was true. Anyway, he had no goal in terms of opportunities. What did it matter if he followed the person's wishes? It didn't matter where he went, as long as he could find the opportunity in the end.

Besides, the evil cultivator was also very curious about the mutant plants that the man mentioned, which could protect ordinary people in the Flower-Growing Country.

He had also seen many mutated animals and plants in this world in the secret realm.

Those mutant plants and animals are not so kind.

Thinking of the mutated plant, Xie Xiu had a premonition that the opportunity he had been looking for might be in that mutated plant.

Even if it's not in that mutant plant, it's related to it.

With this thought in mind, he sped up again and headed towards the Flower-Growing Country.

Ying Huai, who was concentrating on looking for Xiao Tiandao at this time, had no idea that there was a person with evil intentions coming towards him.

The purpose is to get something from him.

What could he get from Ying Huai? Apart from his own cultivation, he only had the Tianyun Fruit that he had given to Xiao Tiandao.

Now the Tianyun Fruit is staying well with Xiao Tiandao. Considering the time that Xiao Tiandao has been causing trouble, the Tianyun Fruit should be about to sprout.

Otherwise, it would be unfair to Xiao Tiandao for all the trouble he has gone through during this period.

Now Ying Huai went to find Tiandao. Since Tiandao was hiding him, Ying Huai could only go to find Tianyun Fruit first if he wanted to find Him.

The Tianyun Fruit followed Ying Huai from the Tianyuan Secret Realm to the Blue Star, and was nurtured in Ying Huai's natal space for such a long time.

Not only is Ying Huai familiar with the scent of Tianyun Fruit, but the Tianyun Fruit also responds to Ying Huai's search.

So compared to the previous time when we went to look for Xiao Tiandao when it was raining, this time we went to look for him when the spiritual energy of the Tianyun Fruit was more abundant, which was much simpler and smoother, and did not take as long as before.

Before Ying Huai came to find him, Xiao Tiandao still wanted to hide, but now that Ying Huai was right in front of him, he had nowhere to hide and could only tell the truth.

"Since you need to find the sun, don't you need to clean up this cage? It would be more convenient to go directly there."

After hearing this, Ying Huai did not ask Xiao Tiandao why he did not find a new sun after losing it.

With Xiao Tiandao's current strength, even those secret realms were secretly taken from Tiandao in the world of immortal cultivation. It is really difficult for him to get them by himself.

"Yes, I need it."

When Xiao Tiandao discovered that the sun was hidden, he wanted Ying Huai to help him remove the cage that trapped him so that he could find the sun again.

It’s just that I felt a little guilty before, and I was dawdling in the small world of the immortal world, thinking of finding the sun first and then asking Ying Huai for help.

Now that Ying Huai came to him and offered to help, it was the same.

After Xiao Tiandao and Ying Huai communicated, they began to prepare to completely smash the last bit of the cage.

Just as Ying Huai and Xiao Tiandao were struggling to break free from the cage, the evil cultivator had already reached the border of the Flower-Growing Country.

The sky was dark. After the evil cultivator hid himself and entered the territory of the Flower-Growing Country, he soon found a small base on a mountain.

Looking from a distance, you can clearly see the difference from abroad.

Even if people from those foreign places live in the base, there are only a few places with lights. In most other places, people work in the dark or find a ruin to rest in.

But the people of the Flower-Growing Country are different. Looking over the high defensive walls, although there are not dense lights inside, it is obvious that the lights are distributed very evenly. There is no such thing as bright lights on one side and few lights on the other side.

Upon closer observation, although the faces of ordinary people in the base were full of fatigue, their eyes were not numb and still had spirit.

Unlike ordinary people in other countries in this world, their eyes are empty and numb, and they are just living, driven by the instinct of survival.

As he watched, the evil cultivator became a little unhappy.

He felt unhappy when he thought that these ordinary people were able to maintain their current appearance because of that rare treasure.

What if these ordinary people consume all the treasures?

He thought about it in his mind, but did not act rashly.

He needs to get a clear understanding of the situation in the country and then find the most likely location of the treasure.

If he were to touch the people in this base now, the country's leadership would likely be on guard, which would hinder his search.

According to his simple understanding of this world during this period, the technology in this world is no worse than some magical tools in the world of immortal cultivation.

The only difference is that you can't use spiritual energy.

In other words, some of the people on Blue Star use weapons that can simply utilize some spiritual energy, but they are not as comprehensive as those in the world of immortal cultivation. Magical instruments can also be transformed from objects into spirits and embark on the path of cultivation.

In this way, he would not ignore the Flower Country, a country with well-preserved existing technology. Attention and caution are his current state.

The reason why the evil cultivator was able to escape from the dangerous place in the world of immortal cultivation was, besides his own luck, his caution.

And now, he applied this caution to areas that he thought might hinder him.

"Tsk, what a hassle! Once I get the stuff, I'm going to kill everyone in this country."

Keenly aware of the incoming attacks from high above and feeling that he was being watched, the evil cultivator made a quick decision and used demonic energy to conceal himself.

In such darkness without light, it was easy for him to hide himself.

And along the way, he had encountered more than one glance.

At first he just instinctively knew that being noticed was bad.

Later, when he saw a human being doing something bad and being swept by that thing, he was taken away by the guards in the human base soon after. He knew that the thing in the sky that was constantly scanning the ground was something similar to the photo stone or the backtracking stone in the world of immortal cultivation.

If he had underestimated it, he might have been exposed by now.

After going around in circles for a long time, he finally found a secret realm and followed the team that came out of the secret realm into the base.

Natural disasters occur so frequently that in order to control the situation, the leaders above have become more strict in the management of the base, and the punishment for crimes is unacceptable to people today.

Ordinary people are directly driven out of the base, and those with special abilities are sent to places that require a lot of labor to do hard labor and build the base.

Ask why people with special abilities can do hard labor, but ordinary people cannot.

If ordinary people could do it, then I don’t know how many ordinary people would be caught committing crimes in their base every day.

Now, apart from those with special abilities who go to the front line, there are only so many places that need work in the base. There are many ordinary people and not many positions can be provided. If someone knew that they could have enough food by doing hard labor, those ordinary people would go crazy.

Being a laborer is just being a laborer. You don't have to worry about being killed by mutated animals and plants when you go out of the base to collect edible things. You don't have to worry about being made difficult when working for those with special abilities, or even being used to test their abilities without them knowing.

The most important point is that if people with special abilities do hard labor, they can be used in many places, and one person with special abilities can replace several ordinary people.

The price-performance ratio is much better than that of ordinary people.

There is no need to explain how to allocate the two to achieve the greatest balance.

It prevents ordinary people from committing crimes for survival, and also alerts those with special abilities that if they commit crimes, they will only be forced to do hard labor. Not to mention eating spiritual food and using spiritual stones to improve their abilities, even their abilities that have just been recovered after being drained will be calculated and used where they should be.

The high cost of crime and strict management prevent the evil practitioners from revealing their identities after entering the base.

Because he also discovered that this base seemed to be even more sick. Everyone entering and leaving the base had their identity checked every day. And it was not an ordinary check. Those with special abilities had their identities checked together with the base's resident ID card.

If he appeared in the base and was seen and checked, he might be discovered.

After all, he hasn't met the people in the base yet, so who knows if their technology can see through his disguise.

It would be better to hide from the beginning, avoid trouble, and find out where the treasure is as soon as possible.

After searching for many days without any results, they discovered that ordinary people in the base, and even those with special abilities, all revered a tree. They called the tree their godmother, and even if they didn't go under the tree, they would still offer some small items at home to feel at ease.

The evil cultivator was puzzled and decided to explore the bottom of the tree.

Then I discovered something different.

The locust tree planted at the entrance of the secret realm did not seem to be a mutated product of the revival of the world's spiritual energy as he thought. Instead, it looked like a demon plant in the world of immortal cultivation.

When he realized this, the evil cultivator knew that he might have been looking in the wrong direction from the beginning.

He should go directly to the locust tree itself.

Since he had that premonition at the beginning, he shouldn't have thought that humans were still alive and living so well, and that all the treasures were occupied by humans.

The demon plant is here. Even if humans want to plunder the demon plant's treasures, the demon plant will definitely not agree. There will be no harmony as we have now.

Since the demon plants and humans can live so well now, does that prove that what he wants is with the demon plants, and humans cannot deal with the demon plants' strength, so they can only maintain the existing balance?

Just because the people at the base can't deal with the demonic plants doesn't mean he can't!

The evil cultivators came from the world of immortal cultivation, and they had just as many things and methods to deal with demonic plants and beasts there.

Thinking of this, the evil cultivator became even more excited for the treasure that was about to come his way.

What kind of treasure can allow a demon plant to live so well in this world?

He couldn't wait.

He was looking forward to finding the demon plant, but was afraid that he would go to the wrong place, so he specially captured a person with special abilities who had just returned to the base, looked disheveled, and did not seem to have high attack power, and prepared to threaten him to lead the way.

Why not capture ordinary people? The evil cultivators have observed that ordinary people in this country need those with special abilities to eliminate threats before they set out. Under such circumstances, what's the point of capturing ordinary people? After leaving the house, they probably won't know the direction as well as he does.

In this case, it would be better to directly capture someone with weak abilities who often leaves the base to show him the way. Maybe this person with abilities has been to Daxi Village when he was doing his tasks.

Daxi Village, when the evil cultivator first heard of this place, he was puzzled. Is there anything special about it? That demonic plant actually chose to take root there.

During the time he had been in the Flower Country, he had basically visited all the places in the Flower Country that produced cultivation resources, but he had not discovered any special resources in Daxi Village.

Maybe there is, but it is hidden by that demonic plant?

With these expectations, the evil cultivator set off.

Some of those who were captured by the evil cultivators didn't know how to evaluate their luck.

Knowing that he could not defeat the evil cultivator who captured him, he had no choice but to ask for help.

However, there has been no reply to the letter sent back, and the evil cultivator who captured him has been changing positions constantly, as if he is avoiding something.

"Has Dunzi brought back any news?"

Captain Dai looked intently at the satellite map, searching for the location sent back by Zhuangdun, but he couldn't find it.

"Well, another location has been transmitted. The evil cultivator wants Dunzi to lead the way to Daxi Village. He should be heading for Godmother. We have contacted Daxi Village, but Godmother has not responded. What is the current situation?"

Facing Captain Dai's question, Tang Ji frowned, his face full of difficulty.

They learned about the foreign countries bringing monks from the secret realm back to Blue Star after a meeting some time ago. The Flower-Growing Country knew that the other party would definitely come this time and had been on guard all the time.

Unexpectedly, despite all the precautions, it still couldn't be prevented.

It was dark, and right under their noses, Zhuang Dun was taken away in the blink of an eye.

If Zhuang Dun had not used his ability to place something conspicuous in the base warehouse as a reminder, they would probably still be searching for people in the base with full of doubts, and had no idea about Zhuang Dun's situation.

But now that they know, there's nothing they can do.

"That evil cultivator seemed to know that we would use satellites to find him, so he's been hiding. He seems to have used some special means to hide."

Captain Dai and the others were getting anxious as they could not find any trace of Zhuang Dun and the evil cultivator, and could not get in touch with their godmother. The location Zhuang Dun sent back was getting closer and closer to Daxi Village.

Not to mention Captain Dai and the others are anxious, even Zhuang Dun who is tied up is very anxious!

Even though he was pointing to a more roundabout route, the evil cultivator refused to listen and took a detour.

He also knows the general direction, so it would be difficult for him to point in the wrong direction.

In the end, he could only take a chance and point in a direction that was slightly off angle.

The direction is still the same, but it deviates a little bit, which is enough to drive the evil cultivator away for a long distance.

Zhuang Dun knew that this was only temporary. Even if the direction deviated a little and they took a different path, it wouldn't take long for the evil cultivator to fly back and find their location.

He couldn't let the evil cultivator realize that he did it on purpose, otherwise, after he died, the evil cultivator would definitely capture another person, and more people would be involved and die for no reason.

The evil cultivator was flying with Zhuang Dun in his arms. It was pitch black all around, without any light at all. He looked around but didn't see anything unusual. He found a hilltop, threw Zhuang Dun down, and landed himself to take a rest.

When the weather was hot before, the evil cultivator had a negative effect on himself because of the heat released by Xiao Tiandao and gathered around him. Now that the entire Blue Star has entered night mode, the negative effect on him has not disappeared at all.

Only now the effect has shifted from heat gathering to darkness gathering.

When Zhuang Dun was with the evil cultivator, he could clearly feel that the place they were in was darker than other places.

However, Zhuang Dun thought that there was no light outside. His current location was different from the base on the mountain, and the moonlight in the sky could not illuminate his location so brightly, so he did not emphasize this to Captain Dai and the others.

As a result, they have not been able to lock onto the evil cultivator in time with such a large light gap.

"There's nothing we can do. They're getting closer and closer to Daxi Village. I told Mayor Xiao and the others to turn off all the lights in the base and the village. I'll make the village quieter and see if I can buy them some time."

Just looking at the location information sent back by Zhuang Dun, you can tell that he did make an effort and didn't lead the person away directly, perhaps because the situation did not allow it.

Thinking that the evil cultivator had captured Zhuang Dun when they had just entered the base, he might have stayed in the base for quite some time and knew most of what he needed to know.

If they were in his place, they could only give some wrong information and delay time like Zhuang Dun did.

"Did Godmother respond?"

Village chief Wu anxiously informed the other villagers of the situation. After he put down the communicator, he looked at Tang Rufeng, who was standing under the locust tree with his eyes closed, waiting motionless, and asked anxiously.

"No, it's just like the time when it rained and we were looking for our godmother. No matter how we called, there was no response. She was busy and didn't pay attention to us."

Tang Rufeng waited for such a long time but did not receive any response from his godmother. His brows were furrowed, and his face was full of anxiety, just like Village Chief Wu.

"They all turned off the lights? They won't make any noise, right?"

They had no choice at this time.

According to the information sent back by Captain Dai and his men, the evil cultivator is extremely powerful. Even if all the powerful people on the official side come together, they may not be able to defeat him.

The people with special abilities in Daxi Village are not much different from those on the official side.

At most, some mutated animals and plants will come forward to help and delay some time, but beyond that, there is not much they can do.

If their mother could respond now and knew the situation outside, they wouldn't be so worried, but that's not the case now.

No one knew what the godmother was busy with, and she didn't respond to their calls. What if that evil cultivator came and attacked the godmother when she was off guard?

Whether it was Captain Dai and his men, or villagers like Tang Rufeng, what they were worried about was never the godmother's strength or whether she could be a match for the evil cultivator, but rather that the godmother would suffer when she was caught off guard.

If he gets injured, even if he has the strength to rival that evil cultivator, he will be weakened a lot.

And in front of such a strong man, these people, to put it bluntly, are just a drag on Godmother. What's more, they may even become part of the enemy's strength and hinder Godmother from defeating the opponent.

"No sound will be made. There won't be any sound in our village tonight."

The village chief did not hesitate at all to answer Tang Rufeng's question and gave a decisive affirmative answer.

The villagers of Daxi Village attach great importance to the importance and safety of the godmother.

Even if he didn't explain the reason, as long as he said it was related to his godmother's safety, other people in the village would not act rashly. They were told not to make any noise, and even if their feet were hit by a knife, they would be able to restrain themselves.

These confidences are the conclusions that Village Chief Wu came to after living in the village for a long time.

Of course, he thought so too.

Just like now, with Mayor Xiao's words, the lights in the small base composed of the town residents over there also went out, and no sound was made.

In today's world, the importance of godmothers has been proven by natural disasters time and time again.

If they want to live, or if they want their descendants to have a future, it is impossible for them to ignore any action that may put their godmother in danger.

If the people of Daxi Village protect Ying Huai purely out of the kinship bond they developed after a long period of living together, then the people in the town and the upstream villages protect Ying Huai for a common goal, the future.

Ying Huai is their recognized protector, a strong man who can help them see the future amidst the continuous natural disasters.

The place protected by Ying Huai is their home.

Therefore, knowing that they are powerless to do anything for their godmother, they try their best within their abilities.

Just like now, since they had to be quiet, they didn't even dare to turn over, for fear of making any noise that would be heard by the dangerous person.

They didn't know what the so-called danger was like, but even the leaders above were on high alert. It was obvious that it was very powerful, so powerful that it could treat them like sand.

Just as people on the mountain were in a state of panic, the evil cultivator grabbed Zhuang Dun and flew away from the other side of the mountains hundreds of kilometers away from Daxi Village.

Those who missed Daxi Village for a short time didn’t know about this, and even if they knew, they wouldn’t be able to relax.

Because those who have set their eyes on the treasure will not give up looking for it just because they have missed it temporarily. They will find it sooner or later.

Captain Dai looked at the location information sent back by Zhuang Dunxin and breathed a sigh of relief.

"We've managed it for now, but we don't know when he'll be able to react. We still need to be prepared for the worse."

Captain Dai said this, looking at the other team members who were busy.

"Captain, the leader just gave the order. We, the frontline teams, are temporarily abandoning our base mission and heading directly to Daxi Village for support."

Mo Shan conveyed the order he received to Captain Dai.

"Because they were worried we wouldn't make it, our leader asked us to go to the base laboratory and fly the newly researched and modified aircraft. However, that aircraft is somewhat risky."

The base research institute has been researching and improving previous technological products so that they can still be used in this post-mutation world.

The previous modification was of a car, but the plane that Mo Shan mentioned this time was newly developed and has not been tested yet after modification.

It is very risky to drive out rashly, especially in such a night environment.

In a moment of carelessness, they fell off the plane before they even reached their destination.

"It's okay, hurry up, let's go."

After understanding what Mo Shan meant, Captain Dai responded with action and directly invited everyone to go together.

The others had been with Mo Shan for such a long time, so of course they knew the part he hadn't finished saying.

Mo Shan's words were full of hidden meanings. It wasn't that he was hesitant and didn't want to fly there, but that he was worried that others would retreat.

Fortunately, his teammates stood up and left with the captain.

The base's plane left with the people with special abilities who were going to support Daxi Village.

Unbeknownst to them, a researcher had quietly stuffed a dirty-looking leather rat into the corner of the plane.

Thanks to the power of the skin mouse, no one else on the plane noticed that it had inexplicably appeared in the corner next to them.
