"Dad, I understand. If the end of the world really comes, it will also be an opportunity for the Xiao family." Xiao Jingrong is very ambitious. If the end of the world really comes, he really wants to let go and do something big. He is too constrained in peacetime.
If it weren't for the secret enemy who dealt with the Xiao family and Jingxuan, and dragged the Wu family into the water, the Xiao family would not be so passive at this moment, and the uncle's feelings towards the Xiao family would not be a little alienated. But no matter what, he is also his grandfather's grandson and his uncle's nephew.
This time he also felt that there was a big move from above, but because of the regulations from above that everyone was keeping silent, he didn't believe that he couldn't find a way to pry open a gap.
Does he have any grievances against Jingxuan? It seems that he does, but he hates the person who stabbed the Xiao family in the back and sent Jingxuan to prison more. However, he can't find this person no matter how hard he tries. He has checked anyone who may have a grudge against Xiao Jingxuan, but unfortunately there is no connection.
Ren Xiao Jingrong could never have imagined that the whole thing was done by Su Yuanjing, a small figure who was looked down upon by the Xiao brothers. They were used to being high and mighty, and what they did casually might be completely forgotten the moment they turned around.
There are many families that share the same idea as the Xiao family, all of whom want to gain a foothold in this era of great change, but obviously the best shortcut is to stuff people into the army. However, now the army selects talents not only based on spiritual roots and talent, but also on the person's loyalty to the country. People who have just been stuffed into the army are not qualified to participate in the selection.
Xiao Jingrong had just left the Wu family when Grandpa Wu came down from upstairs.
The younger generations of the Wu family all knew what Xiao Jingrong's intention was in coming here. Official secrets were not secrets to Grandpa Wu, so the younger generations of the Wu family knew something about it. How could they be happy to think that Xiao Jingrong would also compete with them for this spot?
"Grandpa, my cousin also wants to join the army. Hasn't he always liked doing business?" The person who said this had a sour tone. At the beginning, their grandfather asked Xiao Jingrong whether he wanted to join the army or take over his father's company, and Xiao Jingrong chose to inherit the family business.
Lieutenant General Wu rubbed his swollen head and said, "Well, you can't get in just because you want to. Now everyone is watching. If you don't stay in the army for several months or half a year, don't even think about participating in the selection. The Huo family is lucky this time."
Lieutenant General Wu knew that the things were sent back by the grandson of the Huo family, and he had personally contacted the person. It would be great if such a person was in the hands of the Wu family. Unfortunately, he didn't even know the person's identity very well.
"When you had the chance to go to City Y, none of you wanted to suffer there, but now you're all complaining about me?"
The younger generation was silent. Of course they knew Huo Feng and the others. He was the famous Crazy Huo who would go wherever there was danger. The last time he was injured, it was said that he almost died. If they really went to Y City like Huo Fengzi, would they have a chance of coming back alive?
"I've thought about it. This kind of thing is purely a matter of luck. There's no guarantee that the people sent in have the qualifications, so I'll try my best to send in all those who can. If you can't select one yourself, don't complain about Jing Rong. Of course, the one who is selected may also be Jing Rong."
Although he had been implicated by the Xiao family's previous affairs, Lieutenant General Wu knew that no matter what, the Wu family and the Xiao family were tied together. If Jing Rong could really seize the opportunity to take off, it would also be beneficial to the Wu family.
The younger generation of the Wu family felt extremely aggrieved. The Xiao family had harmed the Wu family to such an extent, and yet their grandfather still wanted to promote Xiao Jingrong. They didn't believe that Xiao Jingrong would repay the Wu family if he really got promoted. He might even kick the Wu family away because he thought they were in the way, or he might even swallow up the entire Wu family and use it as his stepping stone.
Feng Yun Yuan Jing of the imperial capital knew nothing about this, and he didn't know that many people wanted to find him out, but what's the point of digging out his details? Now he is in the protection circle of layers of military forces, enjoying the highest level of protection.
He felt that at this point, his mission was almost complete. Who could harm Feifei in such a protective circle?
No matter how powerful the protagonist's halo is, can it be compared with the entire country? Especially now when the national order has not collapsed.
Yuan Jing felt that China's government and leaders still cared very much about the people. From the fact that they decided to vaccinate the entire population in the shortest time, it could be seen that the leaders above cared about the people. Therefore, he felt that it was better for such a government and leaders to continue to lead China.

"It's raining, it's finally raining, that's great!" Starting from May, the first rain finally fell after four consecutive months of high temperature and severe drought. Many people woke up from their sleep, opened the curtains and saw the rain falling from the sky outside. They ran out of their homes excitedly and let the raindrops wet them.
The voices of Dahei and Xiaohei woke Yuan Jing from his meditation. As soon as he came out of the space, he noticed something strange. He opened the curtains and walked to the balcony. Looking up at the sky, the scorching sun was gone, replaced by a gray haze, and big raindrops were falling.
It finally rains.
From the balcony, you can see the scene in the community. Many people ran into the rain and laughed, letting the rain soak them through.
But Yuan Jing was not in a very good mood. Raining did not mean the disaster was over. It just appeared in another form. Once the rain started, it would be endless, just like the scorching sun before, until the earth was flooded. This was also the reason why he chose Y City, because the altitude of Y City was not low.
Yuan Jing went to wake Feifei up. Feifei, who was rubbing his eyes due to lack of sleep, cheered immediately when he heard his uncle say that it was raining outside. Even a child like him knew to hope for rain the next day.
"Uncle, I want to go out, uncle, let me go out and see the rain."
"Uncle woke you up just to let you see the rain outside. You are only allowed to go out for a while and then come back. Otherwise, you will easily get sick if you get caught in the rain, okay?" Yuan Jing nodded his little nose.
"I know."
Feifei quickly got out of bed, washed his face and brushed his teeth, then rushed downstairs to open the door. Dahei and Xiaohei followed him out, and then opened the yard door. Feifei, Dahei and Xiaohei all rushed into the rain. Feifei laughed happily, and Dahei and Xiaohei also barked.
Yuan Jing followed him out, having to keep an eye on the child. After a while, Qi Yuan and Xiao Jie next to them also came out to get wet in the rain. Everyone was very happy. Many of them simply raised their heads and opened their mouths to let the rain flow into their mouths, not caring whether the rain water was clean or not. Some even brought soap and took a bath in the rain. You know, since the water was distributed, the well water in their homes was cut off and they haven't taken a bath since then. You can imagine the smell on their bodies.
"It's raining really heavily. I just checked online and it's raining all over China. Did you feel it? The temperature is starting to drop." Qi Yuan talked to Yuan Jing while watching his son, Feifei, Dahei and Xiaohei chasing each other in the rain.
"It's raining all over China." Yuan Jing sighed.
"Yuan Jing, are you not optimistic about the weather changes?" Qi Yuan guessed.
"When do you think the rain will stop?"
Qi Yuan couldn't answer. He certainly hoped that the disaster would end and society could resume normal production, but the high temperature and drought for four consecutive months made him dare not make any rash conclusions.
Now let Xiaojie be happy for a while longer.
No matter what happens in the future, at this moment the whole of China is immersed in carnival. Although some people remember that the divine note said that there would be floods after drought, why aren't they allowed to enjoy the long-awaited rain now?
In the countryside, after the rain soaked the land, many people decided to hurry up and replant, at least to solve the food problem for the second half of the year. Before that, all the grain in the fields was burned dry, and later eaten by locusts, so it can be said that there was no harvest at all.
The farmer was ecstatic, thinking that God had finally opened his eyes. He took his farm tools and started working in the fields.
After being wet enough in the rain, Yuan Jing and Qi Yuan called the two children back and went back to their respective homes. As soon as they got home, Huo Feng also came.
Yuan Jing boiled water for Feifei to take a bath. He also took down the awning above the yard to let the vegetable garden in the yard receive the baptism of rain. At the same time, he turned off the air conditioner and opened the window to let in the natural breeze.
When it rained, the temperature dropped immediately. The thermometer showed only 28 degrees, a temperature we hadn't seen in a long time.
Huo Feng was using rainwater to bathe Dahei and Xiaohei in the yard. Anyway, he had also walked through the rain and was already soaked. While washing, he glanced at Yuan Jing. Yuan Jing was also wet and almost had a nosebleed when he first came over. He still hasn't changed his clothes.
"How long do you think this rain will last?" Huo Feng made small talk.
Yuan Jing replied: "Let's see when God is in a good mood and lets us go."
"That means it's going to rain for quite some time." Huo Feng had actually expected this. After being able to cultivate and sense the spiritual energy factors around him, he could now feel that the air was full of moisture, as if it was going to burst the world. So he had a very bad premonition about this rain. Fortunately, the higher-ups were also prepared. They took advantage of the rising sea levels to evacuate the residents in the coastal areas first, and were now preparing to relocate people in areas that were often affected by disasters and prone to flooding.
After having fun, everyone went back to the house and stayed inside to enjoy the rain. At about four o'clock in the afternoon, there was a sudden ping-pong sound outside. Everyone looked up and saw hailstones the size of ping-pong balls falling from the sky, hitting the ground and making holes.
"This damn weather, it's actually hailing."
The people who were still outside had their heads smashed and were about to bleed, so they quickly held their heads and ran to a sheltered place. After a short while, a layer of hail accumulated on the ground, which was terrifying to see.
In the countryside, a farmer had just turned the land and planted the seeds, but in the blink of an eye, hail started to fall. He had no time to care about the situation in the field and hurried home. When he got home, he saw that the hail was falling endlessly, and he knew that the seeds he had just planted in the field were ruined again.
"God, will you let me live?"
After the hail continued to hit, the temperature dropped again. Yuan Jing quickly took out a long-sleeved shirt for Feifei to change into, and put on a small jacket. He also did not allow Dahei and Xiaohei to run outside, and blew their hair dry.
The temperature dropped to around 10 degrees and didn't drop any further. Although it was either raining or hailing outside, everyone was finally able to get a good night's sleep that night.
Huo Feng did not leave, but stayed at Yuan Jing's house and took the initiative to take on the task of cooking. Needless to say, the food he cooked was more popular than Yuan Jing's. It could be seen from the fact that Feifei ate more than usual, although Feifei never said it. It was already very hard for his uncle to feed him and cook for him, so he could not complain about his uncle's cooking skills. Besides, the food his uncle cooked now was much more delicious than before.
Feifei didn’t know that the food tasted good because the ingredients were better.
"Another group of people were sent here today." Yuan Jing still remembered seeing a car passing by in the rain.
Huo Feng nodded and said in a low voice: "Among this group, there are a few people with strong backgrounds, but you don't have to worry about them. I am here. If we really talk about status, I am not necessarily lower than them."
Yuan Jing was a little jealous of this guy. Look at him, he has only been practicing for such a short time and without any cheats from the immortal cultivation space, yet he has already reached the second level of Qi Refining. Is his spiritual root so superior?
Yuan Jing knew that in the entire base, he was the only one who had stepped into the threshold of the second level, while others were still struggling on the first level. Of course, Yuan Jing was now at the fourth level of Qi Refining and had crossed the hurdle of the third level.
"What kind of spiritual roots are they? There hasn't been a second person with natural spiritual roots yet?" Yuan Jing found it strange. Up to now, Huo Feng was the only one with natural spiritual roots, and he was of the thunder element. He was truly unique. The fact that he was the only one was enough for the country to pay attention to and focus on training him.
"There really isn't a second one." Huo Feng was also quite surprised. He didn't expect that he was the only one.
Yuan Jing touched his chin. Could it be that this was because this apocalyptic world was not a true world for cultivating immortals? Although one could cultivate, the environment determined that the level of cultivation was very low?
