Chapter 176
"Ms. Selina, do you think I'm doing this right?" A woman who looked of a certain age raised her hand high and asked Selina who was walking around in the range.
This is still a city under the energy shield, but the energy shield has now given up covering 2/3 of the city, and the remaining 100,000 people live in this small 1/3.
You don't have to worry about where to live, everything will be rearranged and re-drawn, and you don't need to pay any fees. The only thing is that the food management is very strict, only minors can eat a full meal, the elderly can eat 2/3 full, and adults can only eat 1/3 full.
The complaints caused by hunger were silenced by mechanical force.
Selena was the first person to come to the city after Tongchen entered. Now she is an indispensable right-hand man, and she is in charge of the teaching in the playground.
"Yes, Mrs. Will, please close your eyes and slowly feel the thing that has existed in your body for a long time. It has always existed in your body, but you have never discovered it." Selina is a sweet girl, and she is very patient when communicating with others.
In the huge square, almost everyone who had a problem would ask Selina for help. They didn't dare to ask the young man sitting on the platform, or perhaps they were frightened by the intelligent robot behind him.
"That's like having a baby in your belly. I've never chosen natural childbirth, so I don't know what it feels like to have a baby in your belly." Mrs. Will looked embarrassed, unable to imagine what it felt like to be pregnant.
"Ah, no, Mrs. Will, you can think of it as the blood flowing in your body. Those things are now immersed together, and you have to think of it starting to flow slowly and travel all over your body."
Everyone around was listening carefully to Selina's explanation, sitting on the ground and performing a movement that would absolutely be impossible in the interstellar space, that is, meditating, facing the sky with their five hearts, closing their eyes and feeling.
Outside this grand and moving park, there sat a group of young and strong men. The composition of this group was quite complex. Some were from the security team, and some were those who were suppressed at the beginning of the riot.
Anyway, everyone is meditating honestly now. This group of people is divided into two factions. An old security team member was injured on the day of the riot and was later treated by Wen Ci Qiu. Now he is the team leader, and those around him are all former security team members.
The deputy captain beside him was a young man, a newly recruited team member. "Captain, what do you think Mr. Wen means? He gathered everyone here and told them to search for internal energy instead of thinking about building a spaceship and leaving? Once the food is eaten, the energy will be used up and everyone will die."
"With so few resources on the planet, we can't even make a single-person spaceship. If we all die together, why rush? I think that Mr. Wen has a different perspective from us. He is not in a hurry for us to practice this energy flow. He must have his reasons. Just practice it seriously." The old captain has been a sheriff on this planet all his life. He thought he would be beaten to death by the mob, but he did not die. He was saved by a strange method by the young man he had never seen before.
He still remembered the faint green light from the man's hand, its sharp points piercing his skin like needles. He felt no pain at all, only a warm current flowing through his wound. Then the pain was gone, and the wound healed. It was much more effective and comfortable than the treatment cabin. So, for no reason, he became very interested in the energy flow that the man taught him: "Even if 100,000 people died on the road together, you wouldn't feel lonely. Feel it carefully and don't let your imagination run wild."
After the old captain finished scolding, he closed his eyes again. Perhaps because he had been treated, he felt that he was very close to that threshold. It seemed that something in his body was stirring. He needed to find it and make it move. Yes, he would find it right there.
"Boss, I'm so hungry." This group of strong men were detained during the riot that day, but compared with the ferocious space pirates, they were just little white flowers forced out at the critical moment of life and death.
Looking at the somewhat fierce man, she glared at him and said, "Who isn't hungry? If you have the guts, go and rob it. Do you think that robot can kill you with one shot?"
"Alas, I can't feel the Laozi energy he's talking about. Death is inevitable. Sitting here like this, my legs are almost broken."
"Heh, didn't you hear the big promise he made before? As long as you sense the energy, he will send you natural food, so you won't starve to death."
"Only a fool would say that. Where can I find natural food? If there is, they will give it to us." The man stretched out his legs and lay back. "Anyway, if I don't practice, he must be fooling people. He just wants these people to wait for death in peace. I'm just... "
"Wow!"
“Someone succeeded.”
"It's the captain of security."
"Is this true? Does that thing really exist?"
"I just want to know if there's any natural food? Otherwise, everyone will starve to death if the nutrients run out in two days."
"The captain is still amazing, his skills are still as sharp as ever."
"Selena's gone."
"I heard that Selina was the first person who could run energy."
"Who knows, she'll always get extra care."
"Wow, the captain followed."
Selina looked back at the rioting crowd and helplessly tried to maintain order: "Don't watch, continue practicing. If you can't cultivate energy before the nutrient supplement is finished, you will starve to death."
The subsequent training was relatively calm. No one was making a breakthrough. It seemed like they were waiting for the captain to come back. Everyone wanted to know what was going on.
When the gathering and training in the square was almost over, the old captain came back with a serious look on his face, carrying a fruit basket.
Fruit basket, what did most people not recognize at first? Only later did they compare it with what they had learned long ago.
Watermelon, apple, grape, orange, ..., are indeed natural foods, but what is unexpected is that eating these natural foods in ancient times is like eating a starship in your mouth.
However, the solemn expression on the old captain's face made the security team members who came up dare not act rashly.
"What happened, Captain?"
"Huh? Oh, it's okay, it's okay." The old captain finally realized that his expression had made everyone uneasy. "Come on, eat some fruit. Everyone, have a bite. This is a reward for finding the energy cycle. You'll get it later if you have the chance. Oh, and I just had a feast. You have no idea how delicious the white rice was. There was also fish. I have 12 dishes left. They're on my card. You can order them when you eat next time."
"Is this true? Is it really a natural food?"
"What good would it be to lie to you?" the old captain said, taking out his laser knife and about to cut the watermelon, but then he put the knife back and said, "Do you have any metal weapons? This fruit can't be cut with laser weapons."
"Yes, yes, I have a little collection here." The person who spoke was let out by everyone, and it turned out to be the guy who had caused the riot before.
Although the team members were still glaring at the newcomer indignantly, the old captain smiled, took the knife from him, and kindly asked everyone to sit over.
Whether they are former team members or new criminals, they are all under his management and will be his companions in creating this world in the future.
"There aren't many things, so everyone can try one." He cut the watermelon into cubes three fingers wide, divided the apples and oranges in half, and gave the grapes one by one. Everyone took a bite.
"That's right, Mr. Wen didn't lie to us. This is real, genuine natural food." The old captain said this, and the team members nodded as they listened.
The food has already been eaten, can this be true or false?
"Yes, there is something. What does Mr. Wen want from us? He gives us such precious natural food to eat and asks us to practice martial arts. It doesn't seem right no matter how I think about it." This is the team leader of another team who came over.
The old captain nodded. "That's true, but have you ever thought about what remains for those of us abandoned by the Covenant? Mr. Wen's robot said we all live on this planet, and he couldn't bear to see us die, so he came to our aid, wanting us to survive on this planet."
"How can we survive? Even if Mr. Wen can provide natural food to replenish the food gap, we'll die when the energy shield runs out of energy." What's going on in Xuhai? How could anyone living on this planet not understand?
"Then why did Mr. Wen teach you to meditate? Do you want to live? If you want to live, then work hard and use up the energy in your body. If the energy in your protective shield is used up and you are still unable to use the energy in your body, then you will die."
"Is this true?"
"It's not fun to lie to you. I'm telling you, it's totally fine for me to leave the protection station and go into the virtual sea now."
"Is that guy surnamed Wen so kind? His robot doesn't look like a good person, so how can he be a good person?" The one who said this was a recruited thug.
The people were greeted with a loving slap from their squad leader: "You can talk, you can't, shut up." The squad leader turned around and smiled ingratiatingly at the old captain: "So they are willing to support us like this for free, 100,000 people."
"You wish! The food package I gave you for my first awakening is now available. If you want to eat it while working, you can exchange it for real food."
"What kind of work is this? It's all sand outside."
"Mr. Tongchen said that we must build this planet with our own hands and allow everyone to survive on it. Even if it has been abandoned by the Star Alliance, we will personally build this place into a land of hope. Anyone who can control the flow of energy in their body will be a child of this planet and will be accepted by this planet."
What the old captain said made everyone's blood boil. It was not a pleasant feeling to be eroded by despair. This hope was a ray of light in front of everyone's eyes, a hope that was proven with the eyes.
Finally, someone stepped over that hurdle. Butler Wen and Tong Chen both breathed a sigh of relief. They thought these people would be as clumsy as Tong Chen and it would take a long time for them to find their way.
It seemed that Tongchen was the only one who was clumsy. He lay on Butler Wen's legs with a somewhat aggrieved look on his face.
"Stop it." Wen Ci Qiu touched his smooth mechanical head. The succulents on it had not been planted again after being pulled out by the stone, and it felt cold to the touch.
"Hurry up, the construction plan hasn't been completed yet. You are wasting my time."
"..." Tong Chen, who was pushed away, felt like he was shooting himself in the foot. Ever since he knew that he had to build everything by himself, Ci Qiu's attention had largely shifted away from him.
He wanted to cry but had no tears, so he could only hug Ci Qiu's waist from behind to comfort the injured mechanical core.
