Chapter 26: The Great Wilderness

As time passed, children and teenagers who went to sea returned one after another.

There is only one island in the vicinity, and there is only one goal for the return.

Xu Guangling was originally worried about whether any children would get lost, after all, the youngest of those who went to sea was only five or six years old! If at that time on earth, only children of this age would go to kindergarten, and only a few would go to elementary school!

But here they have been forced to take on the duties of adults.

However, his worries were too much, and at noon on the second day of his return, a tall pillar was raised on the island, dozens of meters high, and at the top of the pillar, colorful flags fluttered.

In this environment of excellent visibility, with the speed at which the children rocked the boat, as long as they were not blind, they could see the signs.

The raising of this flag on the island also informs them that they can and must return home.

It doesn't matter if you find something or not.

Why are all children and teenagers going to sea? The oldest is not more than 18 years old, that is, two are 9 years old?

Xu Guangling doesn't know what is going on for the time being.

But in fact, you can guess that either adults will not be able to come back when they go to sea, or the damage will be large, which is relatively small, or only these children and teenagers can gain something when they go to sea.

Basically, it's none other than these two reasons.

This time, how much was the harvest on the island, Xu Guangling did not monitor it again.

He completely put away his divine sense, and really acted as an ordinary child, who should eat, sleep, communicate with his friends, and communicate normally.

The children around his house also came back, all of them peeled off their skin, and they were a little miserable from the sun, but fortunately, they did all come back, and then it was time to exchange information, some were happy, some were excited, and some were frustrated and disappointed.

There is no harvest and no punishment.

And judging from the situation on the entire island, most of those who went to sea did not harvest, but Xu Guangling's loose small group had a slightly higher harvest.

If there is a harvest, there will be a reward.

One of the rewards is clothing, brand new, a complete set, in fact, shorts and undershirts are a set, but at least three sets per person.

The second reward is a potion, a light red pill, this is to ask how many people in the family are first, and if there are a few people, a few will be distributed.

The third reward is the quota, the qualification to leave here, but any child who catches orange or more flowers can go outside.

Without being with the other children, Xu Guangling received the reward alone, and his reward included two vegetables in addition to these three, well, like Chinese cabbage!

This family of three, next, is full of excitement and joy.

Two vegetables are estimated to be enough for one meal, but of course not one meal, they only eat one leaf for a meal! Stewed with sea fish, the room is filled with an unprecedented taste, if you only observe through the expressions of the two adults, this is definitely more delicious than the queen mother's peach feast.

The pale red pill can greatly replenish vitality, and Xu Guangling unexpectedly found that its effect is actually quite good!

Even if it's outside, this is probably a very good potion, and if you don't get it right, it will even be quite precious, at least ordinary people should not be able to enjoy it. Unless, the aura level of this world is very high.

With this, Xu Guangling was relieved.

One pill per person, one pill down, live to fifty years old, not a big problem.

Xu Guangling didn't do anything, such as improving this pill or taking any other conditioning methods.

The situation in this sea area is really unknown, and any additional actions are hidden risks, and they may bring inexplicable disasters to the two adults, which is really unnecessary.

So, that's it.

In this matter, before and after, Xu Guangling's performance was the same inside and out, no different from other ordinary children!

The day after taking the pill, the two adults were in a much better state of mind and body than before, and their joy and pride continued, and it was estimated that it would last for a long time.

And when it comes to the fact that their children are leaving, the two adults have no worries.

Yes, just excited.

"Daddy, Mom, I'm leaving here to go outside, aren't you worried?" asked Xu Qingzhen.

"Don't worry, don't worry!" his mom laughed.

"Stone!" his father said earnestly, "It's the days of people outside!"

Xu Guangling was stunned when he heard this.

If it weren't for the fact that you were a complete ordinary person, I would have thought you were a sinner who was exiled from outside. However, Xu Guangling estimated that his great-grandfather or great-great-grandfather in this life should be a sinner, and it won't be too long anyway.

From the information previously obtained in the deep sea, there are no real natives on the island.

It was originally an island of dead silence, uninhabited.

So now all the people on the island, their ancestors, far and near, are "sinners".

Soon, the day of departure came.

There were more than 100 people who left with Xu Guangling.

When boarding the big boat, Xu Guangling turned around and looked, his parents in this life were in the crowd of farewells, and like other parents, they didn't dare to shout, but they kept waving their hands.

As the armor soldiers finally boarded the ship, the ship set sail.

The sea has always been waveless, and there have been no twists and turns in the voyage, but it was not until the big ship docked again and completely came to land from the sea that Xu Guangling really settled down.

He also found that the armor soldiers were also greatly relieved, as if they had escaped death.

At the end of the sea is the desert, and at the end of the desert, a small number of grasses and shrubs appear one after another.

On Earth, this environment is called the Gobi.

In the evening of this day, a small town appeared in the Gobi.

And all the way here, between heaven and earth, the vitality and aura have grown from scratch, from existence to prosperity, and the index has climbed to the level of 2.5!

In Xu Guangling's definition, this can already be regarded as a "spiritual land", and it is a pretty good spiritual land.

Along the way, although it was a tiring journey, the spirit of those armor soldiers was getting better and better, as they began to cultivate.

Xu Guangling, the children from these islands, naturally didn't know what cultivation was, but their spirits were also getting better, and even better than those armor soldiers! Even Xu Guangling was amazed.

From the land of the absolute spirit to the normal environment of heaven and earth, these children were like dry sponges, thrown into the water, and under the action of instinct, they were almost crazy to absorb the qi of the primordial spirit!

Seeing this, Xu Guangling probably knew why these children were taken out thousands of miles away.

Dare to love, or rare goods.

Well, if the judgment is correct, the sought-after goods may not be, but there must still be people who claim them.

It was in this town that they roosted.

For those children, everything is new from the time they board the ship to the present, and when they leave the sea and enter the desert, and then from the desert to the Gobi, seeing those plants is tantamount to thinking that they have come to heaven.

In a sense, this outside is indeed heaven!

It was on the first day of living in the town, the first dinner, that they had a meal that they had never eaten before.

What is it like to pull an ancient human who drinks blood to the table on the earth in the 21st century, and let him eat clean rice and steamed buns, soft and sweet braised pork, egg custard, all kinds of vegetables, and incredibly delicious soup?

That's how these little kids who left the island felt too.

But everyone is controlled and can't eat too much.

If there is no control, it is estimated that the vast majority of children will be strangled to death.

"Outside is the life of people!"

There is indeed nothing wrong with that.

The island and the outside, indeed, are two worlds.

At least, these kids don't want to go back to the island even if they kill them now.

Everything out there, really everything, is good.

A thousand times better than the island, ten thousand times better!

Feeling the psychological fluctuations of those children, Xu Guangling sighed slightly.

If the island is wild.

Here, then, is "civilization".

In ancient China, there was a Taoist named Ge Hong who wrote a book called "The Legend of the Immortals", which included the deeds of ninety-two immortals in ancient legends.

This book is also rightfully enshrined in the Daozang.

And at the beginning of the book, it is written:

"The one who became the son...... Those who have attained our way are the emperor, and those who have entered our way are kings. I will go to you, a land of nothingness, into the gate of infinity, in the infinite wilderness, with the sun and the moon, with heaven and earth, and all of them will die, and I will be alone. ”

All men die, but I am alone.

This story is actually an expression of "immortality", which is also the most sought after by ancient cultivators.

Ge Hong listed this story as the first one, as the beginning of the book, only from this point of view, it can be regarded as quite a "man of the Tao", at least, not comparable to those upside down and confused people in the Taoist Tibet.

But if you bring him to live on the island for ten years.

Put it in this outer room.

I don't know if he will list this story as the beginning of the book.

He might start to think about this question:

If it is only "immortality" and there is no "civilization", what kind of situation should the monks be in the meantime?
