Xu Ling and the other two all lived in the northern border. Their parents' farms were large local farmers, so they had never worried about their parents' survival before. After all, the farmers would not starve to death even if someone starved to death. However, as the snowstorm lasted longer and longer, the entire social system collapsed. Although the farmers had a lot of food in stock, they had to keep it safe!
These days, they have heard too many horrifying incidents. Starving people even dared to eat human remains and stormed heavily guarded military camps, not to mention farms that had plenty of food but no defense capabilities.
However, Haidu is 4,000 kilometers away from Northern Xinjiang. In such a harsh environment, it is simply impossible for them to return to Northern Xinjiang.
They also thought about asking Li Mu for help, but through spending these days together, they also understood Li Mu's character. Although Li Mu was a good person, he would not care about the life and death of his neighbors who lived just a stone's throw away, let alone the safety of people who had nothing to do with him 4,000 kilometers away.
Moreover, Li Mu said that although he is a cultivator, he cannot call upon his magic power in this disaster. His physical strength is just stronger than that of ordinary people. If Li Mu really has the ability to travel far, how could he stay in such a shabby place like Mingyue Community? He would have returned to Lingxiao Palace in Miancheng long ago. After all, Li Mu also has family.
So the three of them had to bury the matter in their hearts, and they smiled every time they saw Li Mu. After all, in this doomsday, eating and using other people's things, and having a sad face all day long, as if you were giving others a hard time, was too unreasonable.
But Li Mu was a man of few words. He could tell at a glance that something was wrong with them, so he asked them about the reason.
Several people had no choice but to express their concerns about their families, and they felt much better after speaking out.
"Brother Li Mu, you are also worried about your family, right?" Xu Ling asked curiously.
"Not bad." Li Mu said. For Li Mu, who had an infinite lifespan, thousands of years were just a blink of an eye. Naturally, being separated from his family for such a short period of time did not make any difference to him.
Several people were speechless. They didn't expect Li Mu to answer like this, but they were relieved after thinking about it carefully. What kind of place is Lingxiao Palace? It is said that the guards there don't even take the army seriously, and they will never worry about safety at any time. In addition, Li Mu's family are all cultivators, and they must have space warehouses and other things in their hands, so they don't have to worry about supplies.
"Brother Li Mu, can you tell us about Lingxiao Palace?" Xu Ling asked Li Mu in order to divert his attention.
“Haha, there’s nothing much to say about Lingxiao Palace. Since you’re curious, I’ll take you to see it when I have the chance.” Li Mu said with a smile.
"I don't know if I can wait until that day." Xu Ling hung his head.
"Of course there is, there is still a long way to go." Li Mu said lightly.
"Alas~ If all my relatives in this world are gone, what's the point of living a long life? If possible, I would rather be with my family, even if I have to go hungry every day." Jia Qian smiled bitterly.
Xu Ling and the other person also sighed at the same time.
Looking at the three people, Li Mu couldn't help but recall the moment when he had not been home for tens of thousands of years and finally returned to Earth regardless of everything. He couldn't help but feel moved.
So he asked the three people: "If there is a chance for you to go home and reunite with your parents, are you willing to give up everything you have now, including a warm house, plenty of food, and an absolutely safe living environment?"
The three nodded without hesitation.
"Haha, don't be so confident. Since the snowstorm, you have basically lived in hunger and cold for several days. There is no point in talking about all this now. Go back!" Li Mu closed his eyes after he said that.
"Oh~" Seeing this, Xu Ling and the other two had no choice but to leave.
Suddenly, Jia Qian paused and said happily, "Brother Li Mu, you have a way to send us back to Northern Xinjiang, right?"
Xu Ling and the others were a little confused. They didn't know why Jia Qian asked this. If Li Mu really had a way to send them back to Northern Xinjiang, there would be no need for him to stay here. He would have returned to Miancheng long ago.
Li Mu did not answer Jia Qian's question, but said calmly: "I will cut off your electricity in half an hour, and I will no longer provide you with food. Even if other people cause trouble for you, I will not care."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Li Mu." Jia Qian was happy instead of worried when she heard that Li Mu no longer cared about their lives.
Xu Ling and the others were confused. What was going on? When did they offend Li Mu?
"Let's go back!" Jia Qian quickly pulled the two confused people away.
"Bang~" After closing the door of her room, Xu Ling was still in a daze and even felt a little sad. Guo Xinyi looked at Jia Qian with some suspicion.
"Silly girl, is this a test given to us by Brother Li Mu? If we can hold on, he will take us back to Northern Xinjiang!" Jia Qian explained to the two.
"Really? How do you know? When did Brother Li Mu say this?" Xu Ling asked a series of questions.
"While there are still more than 20 minutes of electricity left, I'll go cook the meat!" Guo Xinyi hurried to the kitchen. Li Mu used to give them food once every ten days, and the last time he gave them food was only three days ago. Based on their previous food consumption, they could last for another nine days.
Jia Qian also ran over to help without giving Xu Ling much explanation, leaving Xu Ling with a confused look on her face.
Xu Ling sent a message to Li Mu, but Li Mu did not answer her. Helplessly, she had to run to the kitchen to help. After all, without electricity, rice could be eaten raw, but eating meat raw would be a bit disgusting.
