Chapter 069: A Few Points
At first, everyone didn't bother to talk at all, they just threw their arms around and showed off their fans crazily.
Only after they were about 70% full did they slow down their movements and start drinking and chatting with other snacks such as braised food, cold-boiled pig ears, and pickled pepper chicken feet.
As Chen Rong slurped his pickled chicken feet, he asked Lu Xuan with great interest, "Come to think of it, aren't you curious why those families suddenly wanted to go down the mountain to look for someone?"
Lu Xuan said casually: "What other reason do you need to find your own child?"
"Of course!" Chen Rong slapped his thigh. "If you really cared about your daughter so much, why didn't you follow Aunt Liu's lead and just force her to stay before the earthquake? You were probably worried about the burden of having another mouth to feed. It was only after you found life in the mountains better than you expected that you changed your mind."
"Besides the Zhao family, the other families either have sons who have had accidents or only have one daughter. If they don't find the child, the family will be extinct. Although the daughter is only half of their own blood, Sun Dahai's daughter gave birth to a big fat boy. If we bring the grandson back alive and change his surname, wouldn't he become a descendant of the Sun family?"
Lei Yan frowned when he heard this, "Why are you still thinking about this at this time?"
Chen Rong laughed and said, "Of course I can't care when I can't even eat. Isn't it because I've been eating too much lately?"
When life is too good, people tend to covet good things that they would never have thought of before, and all kinds of little thoughts keep popping up.
His mother often grumbled to him privately that it was harder for him to find a wife after the disaster, and that she thought he would probably remain single forever, and that she would never have a grandson in her lifetime.
Chen Rong himself doesn't really care about these things.
Of course it would be best if you could marry a wife to warm your bed, but if you can't, you can still live comfortably.
After the disaster, I can still eat enough and have meat from time to time. This life is already like a god, what else can I complain about?
The audience in the live broadcast room expressed their opinions while gnawing on chicken feet and pig ears with gusto.
Although I enjoy watching live broadcasts from the ancient times, I just can't understand or like the feudal ideology of the ancient times.
I don't want to belabor the point, but nine out of ten ancient men truly had reproductive problems. Population is important, but some only prioritized sons over daughters, and some even strangled or drowned their daughters upon discovering they were pregnant. They didn't consider that if everyone else did the same thing, wouldn't their sons, when they grew up and had no wives to marry, be left single, leaving their descendants without a family line?
[It's certain that you'll have no children or grandchildren, but that doesn't necessarily mean you'll be single. Isn't it possible to be gay? Hahaha.]
[The above is so toxic! If the son really became gay, these fathers with reproductive cancer would be pissed to death.]
【I wish I could die of anger.】
Regardless of their motives, at least Sun Dahai and the others were willing to go out and look for someone even though they knew the situation outside might be chaotic. Compared to others who didn't treat their daughter as a human being, they were much better.
[The premise is that they didn't try to morally blackmail the anchor. For this reason, I don't like them.]
Xiong Mao ate the braised pig's trotter until his mouth was full of oil as he said, "I still have to have a son. Not only can he carry on the family line, but if something happens to me, I'll have a son to take care of my wife. If it's a daughter, she'll become someone else's after she gets married. Then my wife won't be alone anymore. That won't do."
Chen Rong tutted his words and said, "You really do love your wife, but you know how she hooked up with other men in the village in the past..."
Xiong Mao's expression changed, and he waved his fist at Chen Rong fiercely: "You want to be beaten, don't you?"
Chen Rong quickly raised his hands and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say anything."
Xiong Mao snorted coldly, his tone unkind: "My wife only likes me, the others are just for fun. They couldn't control themselves and were seduced to do hard labor for my wife. They deserve it. Don't you even take a piss and look in the mirror? How could my wife possibly like them?"
Chen Rong, who was also seduced by Su Ying and did the job in a daze: "..." He felt scolded.
[Just for fun, hahahaha—he really dares to say that.]
[Why don't you take a look at yourself in the mirror? He's not much better than other men.]
[That depends on the perspective. Xiong Mao may not look great, but he's quite tough and strong! That aspect will definitely satisfy Su Ying.]
[? ? Driving suddenly? However, whether sex is smooth or not still has a great impact on marriage.]
[Also, Su Ying's looks could easily attract trouble if she's not careful. If she doesn't find someone as capable as Xiong Mao, she'll definitely suffer.]
But the fact is, Su Ying not only did not suffer any loss, but on the contrary took advantage of others. It has to be said that this woman is quite something.
[In a way, Xiong Mao and Su Ying were a match made in heaven. Looking at all the men of the same age in Yunlu Village, Su Ying couldn't find another man more suitable for her.]
While Lu Xuan was watching the barrage and listening to Xiong Mao talking about how he and Su Ying fell in love with each other and how they loved each other after marriage, he glanced at the two brothers who were drinking silently with a depressed look on their faces.
Lu Xuan said calmly, "Are you unhappy that you can't go find Li Yue?"
Xiong Mao and Chen Rong, who were talking, suddenly stopped talking. Zhang Chengming, who was busy eating beside them, also stopped using his chopsticks and looked at Li Jing and the others carefully.
Li Jing muttered, "I know Dad is worried that something might happen to us after we go out. He can't bear the thought of losing his daughter and then his son. But..."
Although he understood it, he couldn't let go of the guilt he felt towards his sister because he couldn't go look for her.
Li Tuo's eyes were red as he said, "I thought Mom would help us persuade Dad, but I didn't expect that she wouldn't want us to go either."
"Isn't this perfectly normal?" Chen Rong said, crunching a pig's ear. "My hands are made of flesh. No matter how much I love my daughter, I can't let you take risks with me. If you end up with nothing, you'll both end up with nothing. Do you want them to see you off before you know it?"
Xiong Mao nodded. "If you two leave, what if something happens here? What will happen to the village chief and Aunt Jinfeng? You can't rely entirely on your wife. What will happen to your wife and son if something happens to you again? Don't just think about Li Yue and forget about your own family."
Li Jing fell silent for a moment.
Li Tuo said, "Then it's okay for me to go alone."
Zhang Chengming frowned, "If something happens to you, how can losing one son be any better than losing both?"
To put it bluntly, the village chief didn't want any more losses, so he didn't let any of the brothers go.
Lu Xuan looked at the people at the table and suddenly said, "Don't you think it's cold-blooded of me not to help find someone? If I go, as long as Li Yue is still alive, I might be able to find him."
After these words were spoken, everyone fell into silence for a moment.
The refresh speed of the barrage in the live broadcast room has also slowed down significantly.
Xiong Mao, Chen Rong, Zhang Chengming and other brothers and sisters who did not marry out of the family had no right to comment. Li Tuo was young and it was obvious from the change in his expression that he was a little upset.
Li Jing quickly shook his head and said, "It's not your responsibility in the first place. There's no point putting all the trouble on you just because you're capable. Ultimately, it's our own fault."
Besides, it was A Yue who insisted on leaving, which led to the current situation. We can't ask Lu Xuan to clean up the mess for them. That would be too shameless.
When Li Tuo heard this, his expression froze for a moment, and he suddenly felt a little discouraged.
Yes, if their strength was the same as Lu Xuan's, or even only half as strong as his, parents would definitely not have to worry about them not being able to come back safely after going out.
Li Tuo was afraid that Lu Xuan would overthink things, so he quickly said, "Brother Lu, if you were so cold-blooded, why would you have told us in advance about the disaster and the gods and spirits? If we weren't careful, we'd be mistaken for monsters."
The others nodded in agreement.
The audience in the live broadcast room thought to themselves, it turns out that it might really be mistaken for a monster. Fortunately, the host was able to remain calm and say that it was a manifestation of the gods, and the villagers actually believed it.
"Lu Xuan, don't think too much. We all know you have a good heart."
Lu Xuan's expression was a little strange.
Is he feeling good? If you really count, he's killed more people in the past ten years than the entire village.
The audience in the live broadcast room also felt that it felt a bit strange.
They were not aware of Lu Xuan's time travel, but regardless of the fact that he had killed more than one pack of wolves in the mountains, when he left the city, he killed all the people who wanted to rob him.
They don't sympathize with those who have bad intentions, but not long ago they saw with their own eyes that the anchor used vampire vines to intimidate the villagers, and then heard them say that the anchor is really a good person...it's hard for them to judge.
However, Lu Xuan soon calmed down.
It doesn't matter to him whether the villagers think he is a good man or a murderer. He will not change his own lifestyle because of anyone's evaluation.
Life is just about having fun!
However, considering that the people present were quite pleasing to the eye, Lu Xuan didn't mind teaching them something.
He tapped his fingers on the table to draw everyone's attention. "In peacetime, it's no big deal for neighbors to help each other, but in troubled times, this isn't the time to show kindness casually."
"Just like Chen Rong said before, if I find them, they'll thank me for the rest of their lives. What if I can't find them? To make themselves feel better, are they venting all the grief and anger they've felt after losing their loved ones on me? They're blaming me for being so strong that I couldn't find them, and blaming me for not persuading them to keep them."
Li Jing and others were speechless.
Li Tuo opened his mouth in shock and stammered, "They can't be so unreasonable."
Lu Xuan sneered and said, "You expect to reason with someone who has already lost their mind? I don't know how those families would react if they were really faced with such a situation, but I don't mind considering the worst-case scenario. After all, in troubled times, naive people don't live long."
Lu Xuan reminded them: "Don't ignore the cruelty of the catastrophe period just because life here is too comfortable."
"We won't live here forever. Sooner or later, we'll encounter other disaster victims. Those outside don't have the same opportunity as you to stock up on supplies. Family separation, cannibalism, robbery, murder—all the evil you can imagine is possible out there."
"Once the outsiders know that you have enough food to last you several years, will they simply envy you, or will they try every possible means to snatch the supplies? Hiding them in the space and unable to get them? Then they will kidnap your parents, your children, and threaten you. If you don't hand over the supplies, then..."
