The night makes people yearn for light, but the night can also breed evil.
In addition to preventing the harm caused by severe cold weather to the public and promptly evacuating residents from houses collapsed by snow, we must also prevent those evildoers who take advantage of the darkness to commit crimes, as such people cannot be stopped despite repeated bans.
The communication was not completely interrupted. Before the eternal night, Yuan Jing and relevant researchers had deciphered the communication talisman. However, the scope of use was still relatively narrow. However, it was enough for Yuan Jing to gradually understand the situation outside. A village was maliciously broken into by a group of people. Huo Feng, who received the news, quickly took people to capture the criminals.
Two days later, Feifei and Xiaojie, who had entered a state of meditation for the first time, woke up one after another. Their first reaction after waking up was that they were hungry. They did not realize that they had been in a state of meditation for two days and two nights. Anyway, when they opened the curtains, it was still pitch black outside. Occasionally, there were a few lights, which were the lighting symbols in the base working. Although there were generators, the electricity had to be used at critical moments.
Qi Yuan had already prepared food for them to eat when they woke up. The two little ones were chattering while eating. They were very excited and said that it felt like there were little mice running around in their bodies and they were playing hide-and-seek with the little mice. Their childish words made the two adults laugh.
Not only the two little ones have officially entered the ranks of cultivation, but even Big Black and Little Black have changed a lot. Yuan Jing discovered that Big Black and Little Black have entered their second development. After this development, perhaps their size will increase again and their strength will double.
This made Yuan Jing realize a problem, that is, what changes will happen to the wild animals outside. Compared with humans, animals and plants are actually more adaptable to the changes of the earth and can better survive earth disasters. Although Dahei and Xiaohei have used spiritual spring water and eaten the fruits and vegetables in the space, Yuan Jing did not deliberately take them to practice, but it is obvious that their bodies are actively adapting to this change, making them more and more adaptable to such extreme climates.
Some of the flora and fauna outside, especially animals, will die in various natural disasters, but those that survive may very likely cause some trouble to humans, so they must be taken seriously enough.
Yuan Jing took out the improved communicator and sent a message to the leader of the base, telling him about the changes in Dahei and Xiaohei and his own guess. Afterwards, someone from the base knocked on Yuan Jing's door, wanting to come and see for themselves the situation of Dahei and Xiaohei. They left with heavy hearts because they knew that Yuan Jing might have been right.
Yuan Jing turned around and entered the space, wanting to refine the Qi Ling Pill for Dahei and Xiaohei. He asked Qi Yuan to look after the two younger ones while he went into seclusion and might come out at any time.
He activated the formation as soon as he entered the training room. No one could force their way in at the moment, and then he entered the space with confidence.
Maybe he had been focusing on drawing talismans and making formations recently, so he was a little rusty in alchemy, so he first made a few simple elixirs. Elixirs were not as easy to promote as talismans and formations. If he could come up with Huangling grass seeds, could he also come up with other spiritual grass seeds one after another? Moreover, some spiritual grasses need to grow for dozens or hundreds of years before they mature, and people on Earth can't wait.
I wonder if this great change on the earth will produce some spiritual herbs. Yuan Jing thinks that he can go out for a walk and take a look after the eternal night is over.
Yuan Jing has already prepared the spiritual herbs needed for the Qi Ling Pill. Now Yuan Jing has reached the fifth level of Qi Refining. Yuan Jing doesn't want to admit that the reason for such rapid progress is partly due to the dual cultivation with Huo Feng. Because of dual cultivation, even Huo Feng has climbed to the third level of Qi Refining. Who knows when he will be able to break through and catch up with himself.
After wasting one furnace of pills, Yuan Jing finally succeeded in the second one. Seeing the yellow pills in the furnace, Yuan Jing smiled.
When they came out, they realized that the retreat was only for three days. Feifei and Xiaojie guarded the door of the training room while they were not practicing and studying. Finally, Yuan Jing came out. One of them held a talisman he drew, and the other held a formation he drew, to show off to Yuan Jing.
"You can draw talismans and create formations in such a short time? Let me take a look. Hmm, it's really good. Keep up the good work." Although the effects of the talismans and formations were relatively weak due to the lack of spiritual power, they were already successful talismans and formations. The two children were indeed talented in this area.
Feifei and Xiaojie were so happy to get the affirmation that they danced with joy. Qi Yuan came over and persuaded them to go back so that Yuan Jing could wash up and eat something.
After eating, Yuan Jing took Dahei and Xiaohei into the training room, and this time Feifei and Xiaojie followed.
The Spirit Awakening Pill is not a Marrow Cleansing Pill, so the transformation process is not painful. The two black backgrounds seemed to have just had a good sleep. When they woke up and opened their eyes, Yuan Jing clearly felt that their eyes were more lively than before.
The two of them took the initiative to put their heads in front of Yuan Jing and let him stroke them obediently. Feifei and Xiaojie also touched them, and the two of them swept them with their tails.
Yuan Jing touched their heads and said, "How far you can go in the future is up to you. Big Black follows Fei Fei, and Little Black follows Xiao Jie, okay?"
Dahei and Xiaohei looked back at the two younger ones. In fact, Feifei was already their little master. When Xiaojie became Yuan Jing's other apprentice, they also knew that this was another little master. They each called out to their little master twice, and then turned back to rub Yuan Jing's palm. They are smarter now and know that their changes are brought about by their master, and the master will have the highest status in their hearts.
Feifei and Xiaojie hugged their necks happily. Now their heads can carry the two little ones everywhere.
Huo Feng came back a week later with a faint smell of blood on his body. He saw blood this time.
However, he did not stay for long after returning, without even having time to be affectionate with her. He ate a hot meal, picked up Feifei and weighed her, saying that the weight had become heavier, and then hurried off to perform other tasks.
When Feifei and Xiaojie had practiced to the point where they could adapt to the current weather, Yuan Jing took them out for a walk. When they went out, they clearly felt that Dahei and Xiaohei were much more resistant to the cold than them. It was these two who blocked the cold wind for them, and their fur became extremely thick, with warmth underneath.
Zhang Yao also went out to complete the mission. Yuan Jing was worried about Zhang's parents, so he took them to Zhang's house. Because this community was close to the base, there was no trouble. Otherwise, any movement would alert the soldiers in the base.
Zhang's father and mother were very happy to see them coming: "We are all fine, don't worry, Yaoyao has prepared a lot of things for us. It's just that we haven't been able to practice any results with that martial arts method, but doing boxing all day is also quite effective. Although it's freezing outside, the temperature inside is not low, and we can still grow some vegetables."
The lighting charm can replace the role of sunlight, so the potted vegetables in the house can still grow. Therefore, Zhang's father and mother take good care of these potted vegetables, and sometimes they can take them out to exchange with other families for vegetables grown by other families to change the taste.
Huo Feng hasn't come back yet, but all the work in Y City is still progressing. It has not stopped just because someone is away. Yuan Jing has also taken a part in some of the work.
If people are locked up in a house for a long time, they will become corrupted even if they have something to do. So after a meeting, the leaders decided to provide sufficient light sources at several fixed locations in Y City, open markets and activity centers, and allow people to come out of the house and interact with others.
This practice was welcomed by the people. Even the freezing cold weather could not dampen their enthusiasm. They took their unused items or grown vegetables to the market for exchange. Those who focused on cultivation also found like-minded people at the activity center to exchange experiences in cultivation. This exchange was indeed beneficial. Many problems encountered in cultivation were solved. Some people also took out the talismans they were good at making to exchange for those they were not good at.
For example, some people are good at making lighting talismans, but they always get stuck on the Flame Sun Talisman. So they exchange two lighting talismans for one Flame Sun Talisman. This deal is very cost-effective for both parties.
Yuan Jing brought Feifei and Xiaojie to participate as well. The two younger ones also took out the talismans and formations they made to trade, and were sought after by many people, especially those parents who were jealous. They wondered why their own children were not as smart as them? Look, they can support their families at such a young age.
However, people with sharp eyes guessed that the two children must have come from some extraordinary background, and that they came to such a place to participate in the transaction purely to join in the fun.
The government also encouraged the community to sign up to form patrol teams in the urban area, which would take turns patrolling around the neighborhood. All participants would receive a certain amount of compensation, which of course was food. Therefore, despite the freezing cold outside, such positions were still popular.
The public security issues in the city are easy to solve, but not in the surrounding rural areas. Huo Feng led the team out mainly to deal with the affairs of the surrounding rural areas. The entire Eternal Night lasted for three months, but after Huo Feng came back, he didn't even stay at home for a full week. However, he did not give up his cultivation. Every time he saw him, his cultivation level had improved a little bit compared to before.
Huo Feng was busy outside all day, which made Feifei always worried about him. Whenever Huo Feng came back, Feifei and Xiaojie liked to stick to him and ask him about his life, like two little housekeepers.
"Look at this." Huo Feng, who had returned, showed Yuan Jing a design drawing. On the drawing, buildings were connected together at a high density, and it was obvious that they could accommodate quite a few residents.
Yuan Jing had some guesses in his mind: "Is this a newly built house to be used to relocate the people from the surrounding areas?"
"Yes, I just came back from a meeting. This time, everyone no longer holds out hope, but instead considers the worst possible outcome. In the future, situations like Yongye's may become commonplace. For the sake of management, the best way is to gather them together. Nowadays, rural fields cannot be planted by households as in the past. It would be better to enclose them and have the government build a plantation, and then hire people to work in it."
Yuan Jing nodded and said, "I think this is a good idea. We can start work after the eternal night is over, right?"
