My fellow disciple is also destined for marriage, but his own marriage prospects aren't great, since he's talkative, cowardly, and a real pain.
My fellow disciple, Qi Yun (she's with the King of Luck).
The senior brother, hearing that the senior sister was in love, went to find her and happened to run into Yan Shi, whom he then invited to go with him. (The senior sister wanted the senior brother to look into her marriage prospects.)
On the way, I heard my senior brother talk about our master's emotional debts (our master first took in disciples, then incurred debts and was hunted down).
Before other countries could even react, the island nation had already become a thing of the past.
Coastal nations have learned from this experience, strengthening their vigilance over the oceans while trying to understand the reasons behind the sudden ferocity of marine life.
After extensive investigation, the main cause was finally identified: the island nation had been dumping industrial wastewater and even nuclear wastewater into the ocean for years. Heavy metals and radiation caused some marine life to become ill or even die, and some marine life became more ferocious. Originally, this had little to do with the land, but the islanders moved to the seabed to escape zombies and continued to kill highly intelligent marine animals, which triggered this causal event.
The sins committed by humankind will inevitably be borne by humankind, and may even affect other creatures, although those who commit sins and those who bear the consequences may not be from the same generation.
The pollution that has already been caused is irreversible, and there are definitely other countries secretly dumping industrial wastewater into the sea as well.
Pollutants such as petroleum, metals, acids and alkalis, pesticides, radioactive substances, organic waste liquids and domestic sewage, thermal pollution and solid waste seriously affect water quality and marine life, thereby affecting human production and life and threatening human health.
Even disregarding the harm to the natural environment, polluting the ocean is not a wise move if we only consider human beings. Yet some people are willing to step on the corpses of others to make money, just to save on the cost of garbage disposal.
When Yan Shi heard this news, his good mood of the past few days vanished completely.
“I feel sorry for those dolphins and whales. I just learned that a dolphin once committed suicide because it lived in an aquarium for many years and was constantly subjected to unbearable sounds. It chose not to breathe and suffocated itself.”
"That must be incredibly painful."
Zhuang Zhao was helpless. Yan Shi always got stuck on the idea of a disharmonious relationship between animals and humans. He had no ability to change the antagonistic relationship between humans and animals, nor could he persuade Yan Shi to accept it. The only thing he could do was to distract Yan Shi.
“I think you could be a teacher. You seem quite patient with Yifan.”
"That's because Yifan is both well-behaved and smart. My patience is only reserved for cute little ones like Yifan. Those troublesome guys can drive me crazy."
Yan Shi reached out and rubbed Zhuang Yifan's head. The child's hair was soft and pleasant to touch, unlike Zhuang Zhao's hair, which was stiff and had a less pleasant feel.
"By the way, you're the one who cut my hair, right?" Yan Shi immediately lay down and put her head on Zhuang Zhao's lap so that it would be easier for him to do so.
Yan Shi liked it when others played with her hair, and Zhuang Zhao also liked it; getting her hair done became a little pastime for the two of them.
Zhuang Zhao braided her hair, braiding it until it was full, then unbraiding it, and then braiding it again. When she got tired, she would stare at Yan Shi's profile, tracing the outline with her eyes, and memorizing the contours she had drawn.
Yan Shi had fallen asleep as early as when Zhuang Zhao was braiding the third braid.
Zhuang Yifan leaned over the coffee table and used crayons to draw the scene he saw. After finishing, he carefully put it away, intending to show it to Yan Shi when she woke up.
While the family of three lived in peace and tranquility, Japan, in alliance with other Western countries, launched a two-pronged attack on the Eastern continent, one by sea and the other by land. The small country was powerless to resist, and the Japanese plundered everything—resources, women, and even people.
Wars fought with firearms have never ended well. A missile in the area wiped out Japan's advance force, and Japanese drones dropped bombs that destroyed people's homes. Although there were few casualties, the buildings were severely damaged and the economic losses were severe.
Even more astonishing is the clash between Eastern sorcerers and Western magic.
"If you're worried, we'll go and see." Zhuang Zhao knew what she was struggling with.
"But going there wouldn't be of much value, and would only cause more trouble."
"Don't think of yourselves as so useless. Aside from being unable to withstand bullets and shells, we can at least pick off lone targets. Besides, if it turns into a zombie war, then we'll have a chance to make our move."
...
"At this point, you should dissuade me from this idea, instead of fanning the flames."
"This is not about fanning the flames, but about understanding and support."
"You're very good at pleasing people."
"Nobody is anyone."
The main force had already set off, and Yan Shi could only drive after them if he wanted to. He told Si Yue, and after getting the route of the main force, he drove his small truck to catch up.
The poor cat returned to Han Yan's hands, and this time Yan Shi had no intention of taking it back.
“It’s better for Heihei to follow Han Yan than to follow us.”
They thought they could spend their old age in peace in District 7, but in reality, they were only home for a few months a year. Although Hei Hei had a conscience and hadn't forgotten them, their repeated departures meant they were never as close as before.
Zhuang Yifan was still young, and Yan Shi didn't plan to take him along, but he clung to Yan Shi and wouldn't go with anyone else, so Yan Shi had no choice but to take him along.
"This is definitely a decision that will affect you greatly. Even if you are not dead or injured, just seeing someone else's life disappear is cruel to you."
"I've seen dead people," Zhuang Yifan said dismissively.
“It’s different.” Yan Shi shuddered as he recalled the first day of the apocalypse when he saw the fierce and ferocious expressions on the faces of those people as they ran over other people’s bodies.
Being an outsider and being involved are different.
Su Cha was already quite old; she looked to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Her skin was smooth and delicate, but there were also fine lines around her eyes and other areas.
Looking at her bare face in the mirror, Su Cha ran her fingertip across the corner of her eye, her eyes filled with sorrow.
She couldn't wait any longer; wrinkles would soon cover every nook and cranny, and if she waited any longer, she would really become an old woman. However, Su Cha glanced at Gu Hang, who was busy embroidering beside her, and her brows furrowed even more deeply.
She had tried to gauge Gu Hang's opinion on her becoming his wife several times before, but he always firmly refused.
"Becoming family members will only lead to bad things. Don't bring this up again," Gu Hang said.
"What will I do when I get old? My face will be full of wrinkles, my cheeks will be sunken, and my eyes will be empty..."
“Everyone gets like this when they get old, and it’s not this serious. Even when you’re old and become a granny, you’ll still be the most beautiful,” Gu Hang comforted her, kissing Su Cha’s forehead as he spoke.
"Don't try to fool me. Even if you think I'm pretty, I don't dare look in the mirror myself!" Su Cha lightly slapped away Gu Hang's hand that was brushing her hair aside, pouting and complaining.
The fear of getting old is what Su Cha finds most terrifying. When you live a long time, you lose the concept of death, but old age is different. Old age is when your looks fade, and the emphasis is on the fading of your looks.
