Chapter 1545: The Land of Poverty

The sky is full of stars, which form a distant galaxy.

At the end of the distant galaxy, there is a dim star.

It is like a speck of dust in the distant galaxy, so inconspicuous.

Yi Feng stood in the void, standing above this planet, feeling its poverty and its twilight.

Then, Yi Feng stepped slowly and approached this planet.

Just as Yi Feng was about to enter this planet.

A strong force rushed towards Yi Feng.

It was resisting outsiders and preparing to drive away all those who attempted to enter this planet.

A wave of old voices came with this force.

"Don't trespass here, you idlers! Get out!"

The old man's voice was very impolite, but Yi Feng was not ashamed of the other party's unreasonableness.

He stood calmly outside the planet and said loudly: "I passed by this place while traveling in the starry sky. I saw that you were alone and lonely, so I wanted to visit you and make friends with you. Please forgive me if I disturb you!"

After a long time, the old man's voice sounded again.

This time it was not as impolite as before, but the tone was still quite heavy.

"This place is dangerous, you'd better leave quickly to avoid getting into trouble."

Yi Feng smiled faintly and said nothing. It seemed that he was not ready to listen to this advice, but directly broke into it.

Like a stream of light, he quickly landed on the barren land, landing next to the old man who had just spoken.

As far as the eye could see, the ground was devastated, with stones and deep pits everywhere.

The ground here was full of black sand and dust, without a trace of green, and there was no vitality at all.

In the distance, several tornadoes as high as a hundred feet were visible to the naked eye.

They swept the desolation and raged on the planet.

The stars could barely be seen in this world, but the dust in the sky made the sky look like it was covered by dark clouds.

Thunder flashed and roared continuously, but no rain fell.

Judging from the dry ground, this place should be extremely dry.

The old man next to Yi Feng sat cross-legged on the barren ground. The drought seemed to have affected him as well.

His hair was disheveled and he looked like a straw that was about to wither due to lack of rain and dew. He

was also like a candle in the wind, swaying in the wind and struggling to breathe.

The old man saw that Yi Feng did not listen to his call and just barged in. He was quite angry and was about to scold him.

But Yi Feng said first: "Daoyou, since you are here, what's the point of saying more?"

As he said that, Yi Feng took out the fine wine and delicious food and placed them between him and the old man.

"It's just that I'm craving for alcohol and I'm in need of someone to drink with. I just happened to meet you, don't you want to have a few drinks with me?"

The old man's nose twitched, and the fragrance of wine and meat was inhaled into his lungs.

This was a smell he hadn't felt for a long time. He only felt his intestines and stomach begin to move and saliva began to be secreted.

The old man swallowed his saliva, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

He looked greedy, but he was trying to suppress his facial expression.

The old man couldn't remember how long he had been here.

Since he was stationed here, he hasn't eaten a single bite of food, let alone tasted fine wine.

This good wine and good meat undoubtedly made him salivate.

As the saying goes, food, sex and nature are human nature, this is the nature and instinct of being a human.

Although he could fast, he couldn't wait to feast on the delicacies that were delivered to his door.

After all, this kind of wine and meat that was delivered to his door might not come again for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

The old man looked at Yi Feng and thought that the young man had a good appearance and was harmless to people and animals.

He said, "You are right. Since you are here, I will accompany you to drink a few cups. But you kid, don't run around. There are fierce creatures on this planet!"

After saying that, the old man directly picked up the wine jar and took a sip.

"Ha! Refreshing."

Then he grabbed a leg of lamb and took a few bites, chewing with a mouthful of oil.

"Crunch, crunch."

He was reluctant to swallow such a delicacy whole. He wanted to chew it carefully and taste the delicious meat.

"Come on, my friend, meeting is fate. As the host, I will lend you a glass of wine to toast you!"

Yi Feng smiled and raised a wine pot to clink with the old man.

Then he drank it very happily.

"Good wine, good wine! I haven't drunk such good wine for a long time. It's really refreshing, hahaha!"

The old man ate more and more happily, and drank more and more happily.

The gap between the two gradually melted away as the atmosphere became more and more lively.

While drinking with the old man, Yi Feng looked at the poor environment around him and asked leisurely: "I am very curious, why are you staying here alone?"

"Gulp, gulp. Ha..."

The old man took a sip of wine and swallowed the meat and wine.

Then he wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth with his ragged sleeves.

The old man said carelessly: "My friend, you should not ask questions that you should not ask. This is not a secret that you can find out. I am not telling you for your own good."

Yi Feng smiled faintly with a hint of helplessness.

Then he asked: "Do you want to play chess?"

The old man's eyes lit up and said happily: "Okay, let's play a few games!"

Yi Feng pushed the wine and meat aside and calmly took out the chessboard and put it on the ground.

The old man couldn't wait to say, "I have black pieces, I'll go first!"

"Pah."

The old man quickly made his move and urged, "My friend, make your move quickly! Although I haven't played chess with anyone for many years, I play chess with myself in my mind every day. Today I'll show you my skills!"

Obviously, the old man was very confident in his chess skills.

Playing chess with himself in his mind has become his only way to while away his time.

Yi Feng placed the white pieces slowly and steadily.

The two of them played faster and faster, placing pieces like flying.

The black and white pieces on the board became more and more numerous and denser.

Just when the old man felt that he had won the game and his smile gradually grew.

Yi Feng made a clever move to reverse the situation.

This exquisite move surprised the old man.

He just thought that Yi Feng had gotten it by accident, and his smile slowly faded.

"This game doesn't count. I was careless. I was about to win! You're very lucky..."

Yi Feng took advantage of the situation and smiled, "Luckily, fortunately!"

This was repeated several times.

Every time, the old man thought he was going to win.

But at the end, Yi Feng always managed to turn the tide with one or two clever moves and win.

This made the old man feel convinced of his defeat, but also felt that he was not done yet.

The old man sighed and said, "It's really the back waves pushing the front waves, one wave stronger than the other!"

The old man looked at Yi Feng with his yellowing eyes, and felt that this young man was very outstanding, but very introverted.

Suddenly, an inexplicable feeling arose from the deepest part of the old man's heart.

He suddenly remembered that many, many years ago, there was a person he respected very much, who was also like this.

The young man in front of him gave him a sense of déjà vu, but his memory was very vague.

That person was very important, but he couldn't remember the person's face clearly.

The old man covered his head, racking his brains to recall the past. He felt a sharp pain in his head.

After thinking hard to no avail, he looked at Yi Feng with burning eyes.

"My friend, your appearance, temperament, and conversation always make me feel very familiar. You should not just pass by here, who are you?"
