Chapter 215 People's hearts are scattered

Coming out of the Sky City, Lu Yuan saw the sneaky chicken snake squatting in the hot desert.

How come this clever fellow wasn't eaten by the insect swarm?

When it saw Lu Yuan, it trotted over to Lu Yuan.

“Clack!”

Turbid tears flowed from the pair of chicken eyes.

All the chicks in the basket had died of thirst and turned into mummies due to the sun.

"Well, hatch another batch. I have some fertilized eggs."

Lu Yuan took the basket of chicks. The dried chicken was relatively safe, so he planned to take it back to feed the villagers. He couldn't let it go to waste.

Ms. Chicken looked puzzled and asked, "Where did you hide my child?"

Lu Yuan produced a few eggs like a magic trick.

Suddenly, the chicken face broke into a smile.

The chicken snake also knew who was the boss here, and followed behind obediently.

After a while, he saw several lizard-like creatures running wildly in the desert.

It seems that there are still some clever animals that have escaped from the continuous disasters.

Nature is always cold and ruthless, but there is often a glimmer of life.

After several hours of jogging, we arrived at the village of the Sarai tribe.

"Ahhh!" The old wolf wagged its tail and was extremely excited when it saw Lu Yuan. It had lost a lot of weight, and the female wolves behind it also had withered hair and were starving to the point of being skin and bones. It was obvious that they were not living well.

"Old man, I knew you wouldn't die that easily."

Before Lu Yuan had the time to stroke the dog's head, he heard a loud noise.

For three months, a massive war broke out between the insect swarms and the poppy trees.

For the past three months, they have been hiding in the cellar and have been unable to farm.

Therefore, Xiasha Village, which had previously accepted a large number of disaster victims, once again faced a food crisis.

The old cat's fighting power was insufficient and he could no longer maintain order.

Lu Yuan also knew that this was not the time to hesitate, so he rushed into the village.

In no time, a group of troublemakers were knocked to the ground.

Then he rang the village bell.

“Dangdangdang!”

Men, women, women and children came out of the cellar and looked at Lu Yuan in shock and joy.

"He's back!"

"It's good to be back..."

“Has the insect swarm disappeared?”

Many people shed bitter tears, as if they had suddenly met their backbone. The feeling was very sincere.

When Lu Yuan saw these men and women, all with pale and skinny faces, he felt pity for them... The scene was like being in Africa, with starving people everywhere.

The village girl who wanted to bring him the urine pot was as hungry as a skeleton.

She is married.

When he saw Lu Yuan, his eyes were still bright and he smiled as he greeted him: "Mr. Lu, are you hungry? I still have some food at home..."

Her husband was also grinning.

Lu Yuan quickly expressed his gratitude, but his heart ached.

Many old people have died, and those once familiar faces have been buried in the soil and can never be seen again.

On the contrary, a large number of children survived.

Militia captain Shakaner, together with elders like Shasanli, finally had some conscience and preserved the future of civilization...

Lu Yuan was worried and shouted, "Dear fellow villagers, the monster in the center of the Sky City has been dealt with by us!"

"Those bugs have all left!"

"Everyone who is willing to follow me, come with me to that city and start a new life!"

"I can promise that everyone will have something to eat and no one will starve to death!"

"But you must obey management, follow orders, do your job, and not commit crimes!"

Those pairs of relatively bright eyes stared eagerly.

In fact, they don't quite understand the literary terms like "committing crimes".

So, everyone was whispering to each other.

"It's simple...it just means don't cause trouble."

"If you commit a crime, you will be punished according to the laws of our ancestors."

"Alas, as long as you can live, who wants to cause trouble?"

Lu Yuan has been through so many things and is actually a little tired.

He needs to find some time to sort out the current situation.

He was too lazy to explain further, so he waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said loudly: "My friends, my ultimate goal is to return to my hometown!"

"My hometown is human civilization, far, far away, so far that it is unimaginable."

"The people there don't look much different from you."

"If you follow me, I will find a way to take you back with me!"

"There will definitely be many, many difficulties during this period!"

"He could suddenly die at any time, or encounter an invincible monster. All of these are possible!"

“So, I don’t force you.”

"You can continue to stay in the village... There is no risk in the Sky City anymore, you can live a stable life."

"You can also follow me, let's become partners."

"These are all up to you to decide!"

Having said that, he took out some food from the storage space.

Food rations for ten thousand people are really a lot.

A ton of rice is enough for one meal if you cook it.

Lu Yuan's food reserves could not feed everyone. He was actually a little worried. Even though the Tree of Life had accumulated a lot of life energy, it was too extravagant and wasteful to use it to grow food.

"That queen didn't even leave me any meat."

Soon, appeased by food, the villagers of the Sarai tribe quieted down.

"How much food reserves are left in the village?"

"To be honest... I'm not sure." The old cat deliberately said loudly, "Of course there is a gap between the rich and the poor in the village!"

"Some guys may have hidden a lot of food, but it's extremely difficult to get them to take it out!"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

“Why should the strong share their food with the weak?”

"I don't have that ability... After all, those who have food are the upper class."

Lu Yuan shook his head. When there are strong enemies outside, it is human nature to stick together for warmth.

But the current famine can only be alleviated by turning the knife inward and attacking some of the rich.

Elder Sha Sanli passed by quietly.

This old man is still alive and well - mainly due to his adequate nutrition and good physical condition.

Hearing their conversation, Sha Sanli's body trembled.

As a prominent family in the village, his family did store a lot of food...

But people are always selfish, and he really is reluctant to share the life-saving food with others... Why?

But now that Lu Yuan is back, the situation is a little different.

Sha Sanli felt complicated and had a strong sense of crisis. He always felt like he was a New Year pig and was about to be slaughtered.

He and several elders and strong men in the village looked at each other.

"What should I do?"

"I don't know."

They used to be the guardians of order, but now they have become the opponents of the people.

What's even more terrifying is that Lu Yuan can deal with all of them by himself! Slaughter them like pigs! But asking them to give up their private property is really unacceptable... He was so depressed that he couldn't bear it.

"We may not have any credit, but we have worked hard!"

Thinking of this, Sha Sanli took the lead in taking out a few iron pots and started cooking.

The people of Sharia have always lived on cactus and have never eaten rice. The fragrant smell permeates the air, which really makes one's mouth water.

While cooking, these elders, in order to show their presence, brought people to try some criminals.

In fact, many of them are from other villages, and some of them are as powerful as the militia captain.

They were tied up and couldn't make any waves.

The ancestral law is indeed cruel, starting with the death penalty, and even implicates family members...

Lu Yuan turned a blind eye to things like the death penalty. After all, severe punishments were used in troubled times, and it was impossible for the thinking of these natives to evolve to where it is now all of a sudden.

As for collective punishment... let's forget it for now.

Soon, amidst the wailing, the souls of this group of people were stripped away by the "pre-soul seeker" and sealed in a strange wooden stake.

The "martial arts" in their souls will be passed on to future generations - this is also the ancestral law, people can die, but martial arts must be left behind!

Lu Yuan vaguely saw a glimpse of white light.

One of them actually has a divine skill in his soul.

[Glyph Reader: Allows you to read, learn, and understand glyphs, so they are not easily forgotten.]

Well, there are quite a lot of "Glyph Readers", but they are of no use to Lu Yuan.

The "God's Skill" can be ripped from the soul and transferred to another person.

It’s just that the technology of the people in the Sand is not enough, so they can only seal the entire soul together.

[It’s really cruel...] ​​The conch said tremblingly. She was scared.

"The economic base determines the superstructure. Given their economic conditions, they can only implement such laws."

"If we want to change, in addition to improving the economy, we can only educate the next generation." Lu Yuan sighed, "With enough education, one or two generations can be educated."

Just then, the fragrant rice was cooked.

There were also several large pots of chicken soup nearby. Poor lady chicken, her dead children had made a great contribution.

The old cat personally supervises the allocation of food to each person, so that they don’t eat too much, but they also don’t starve to death.

For the people of Sarawak, this meal is simply a paradise!

They drank chicken soup and ate it with rice. They had never tasted such delicious food in their poor lives. They ate very slowly, often holding the food in their mouths for a long time before swallowing it.

After dinner, the villagers had to consider whether to follow Lu Yuan...

"Take your time to think about it, don't rush."

"I'm just wandering around..."

Looking at Lu Yuan's receding back, a strange flame suddenly rose in the eyes of many villagers.

There were whispers among the crowd.

They want to follow! They want to leave!

They no longer wanted to stay in that village, because if there was another disaster, even if it was just the aftermath, they would die in confusion.

Sha Sanli and other elders of the tribe saw this and sighed in their hearts: "People's hearts have been scattered."
