Upon hearing the other person's words, Lu Yuan wanted to ask why, but after opening his mouth, he didn't know what the point of asking would be.
"Alright! Let's go back to China, to Changnan City!"
Xiao Pinghai was also taken aback: "Mr. Lu Yuan, don't you... don't you want to ask me why I mentioned these two places?"
Lu Yuan simply smiled and said, "It's alright. You're a scientist, so you're in charge. As long as we can launch successfully and get what we need, you can name the location!"
"Okay! By the way, is this place safe?"
"Safe! Absolutely safe! I don't think there's a safer place in the world!"
However, after saying that, Lu Yuan added, "At least for now!"
"Okay! I'll believe you then! By the way! Where's the rocket? We want to go check it out!"
"Haha! You don't need to worry about the rocket! I've brought all the rocket logistics personnel with me! By the way, they'll be staying upstairs from you!"
Then, Lu Yuan sighed and said to Zhou Quan, "Old Zhou, now that things have been settled, let's not delay and set off immediately!"
"Okay! But shall we still take the air route?"
"Yes! I don't plan to travel by land anymore. It will take us several months to reach Changnan City! In order to find Xiwen as soon as possible, we must go as fast as we can!"
"Haha! I wish I could ride a rocket!"
"Get lost, that joke isn't funny at all! Don't forget, I tried it once! Just thinking about it gives me the creeps!"
Zhou Quan then remembered that when he left the underground fortress, Lu Yuan's dimensional crystal necklace seemed to have flown out from the guide.
"Alright! I almost forgot about that! I'll make the arrangements now. Most of the people outside have already evacuated! Now all that's left is our helicopter! I'll go prepare some ammunition, just in case we encounter monsters on the way!"
"Okay! Go ahead! I'll go home first! I can have lunch with Xiaoshan and my daughter!"
"Haha! Take me with you! My daughter has been talking about visiting her little sister lately! It's time to take her out for a bit! Otherwise, she'll get sick from being cooped up at home!"
"No problem! Come on over! Aunt Liu's cooking is pretty good!"
After saying goodbye to Zhou Tong, Lu Yuan returned to his residence.
Now, Lu Yuan has basically nothing on his mind. Once he returns to China and arrives in Changnan City, all he needs to do is launch a satellite, search for Xiwen, build a base, and then face the disaster.
However, Lu Yuan was not worried about the disasters, but about Xiwen. He was afraid that something might happen to Xiwen after so much time had passed.
After a night of maintenance, Shi Quan busied himself adding spare fuel tanks, machine gun nests, and various firing positions to the aircraft in order to prevent being attacked by monsters on the way.
At noon, Zhou Tong indeed brought his daughter home for lunch. Everyone doted on this first child born in the dimensional space.
While teasing Qiqi, Zhou Tong asked, "Lu Yuan, if you ask me, during this period, you just need to bring us some food in the morning, noon, and evening. The rest of the time, you can stay in the dimensional space with the child and Xiaoshan!"
After listening, Lu Yuan shook his head with a wry smile: "I used to think that way every time, but every time I encountered a problem, I would leave in such a hurry, which made Xiao Shan very worried. So I'll just forget about it. I'll come back to rest when I have time in the future, so I can spend a good day with my family!"
"Sigh! Well, you've been working 365 days a year without a break, that must be exhausting! We feel like we owe you so much!"
Lu Yuan waved his hand and said, "There's nothing I can do. I only now realize that once this dimensional space is revealed, it won't bring comfort, but responsibility."
Zhou Tong nodded: "Yes! With great power comes great responsibility. But it's lucky it was you. If it were that kid Chen Han, who knows what kind of tricks he might have pulled!"
Speaking of Chen Han, Lu Yuan pondered for a while and felt a pang of sadness.
In the past, Lu Yuan was always worried that Chen Han would make a comeback and always regarded him as a thorn in his side that he wanted to get rid of. But he didn't expect that after he grew to his current state, Chen Han's influence on him seemed to be less important.
Moreover, after being influenced by him, the other party seems to have begun to change in terms of personality. Of course, Lu Yuan felt that there was another reason, which was Long Yue's pregnancy.
Lu Yuan had always thought Long Yue was a bad woman. She led an immoral life and had a terrible reputation. In addition, her tyrannical rule and sometimes her excessive pride led her to make some foolish decisions.
Lu Yuan secretly felt that Long Yue and Chen Han had each influenced the other. After having a child, they finally realized that their lives lacked a constraint, and the child just happened to become that constraint.
Lu Yuanxin hoped that after the apocalypse ended, Chen Han would be able to help China conquer a piece of land.
After chatting with Zhou Tong for an afternoon, Lu Yuan took Xiao Shan and Qi Qi for a walk around the city that evening.
However, the city is now bustling with activity. The tens of thousands of acres of fertile land have been developed and expanded more than tenfold, and it is still expanding. The grasslands in the distance can no longer be seen. All that can be seen is golden waves of wheat.
