Chapter 264: The Spark of Hope
It is difficult to fathom the human heart in the last days, and even many people have formed a deformed psychology under extreme depression.
Fang Ju and the others had seen a player who was keen on eating people, and that person's greatest pleasure was to eat children under the age of ten!
This person seems to be no different from other people in speech and conversation on weekdays, but he has always liked to be alone, and in his residence, there is a group of ordinary people who have no ability, and children account for the vast majority! That's where his food comes from!
It was also because of an accident that Fang Ju discovered this unacceptable fact. In a fit of rage, Fang Ju directly killed the player, and the trapped children were also rescued by him and taken to this underground parking lot.
Now in front of these children, half of them were rescued by Fang Ju from that player, and some of them were rescued by Fang Ju and others from all corners of Y City.
In order to take care of these children, Fang Ju and others renovated this underground parking lot to give these children the best life possible.
The last days are merciless and will not be so merciful to you just because you are a child. On the contrary, for these children who are still young and not deeply involved in the world, this world is even more dangerous!
Therefore, these children have become the deepest secret of Fang Ju and the others, except for the four of them, no fifth person knows about their existence.
They didn't want Yi Xiao to know about the existence of the children, because the combined strength of the four of them was also a food delivery for Yi Xiao.
Although Yi Xiao doesn't look like someone with special preferences, isn't that player from before either?
It is not uncommon for a gentleman in front of a man and a beast in the back of a man, in case this strong man sees that the children really have any evil intentions, then they have no power to resist!
They don't want to put these children in danger because of their own misjudgment. It's no wonder that the fat pig is outspoken and fast-talking, directly exposing the existence of the underground paradise. Even if they fight to the death, it is only a useless struggle.
Fang Ju and the others looked at Yi Xiao with serious eyes, carefully observing the changes in the other party's demeanor, praying that the worst would not happen.
Suddenly, Yi Xiao smiled. "So, these are the secrets you're trying so hard to hide?"
Hearing Yi Xiao speak, most of the hanging hearts of several people were put down, no matter what, the other party's tone sounded without any malice.
"Don't blame adults, it's really these children who need protection, so the fewer people who know, the better." Fang Ju said.
Yi Xiao turned to look at Fang Ju, his sharp gaze made Fang Ju tremble in his heart. "So, that's why you're hesitant and don't want to go to Beidou City?"
"Adult......" Fang Ju looked puzzled, he suddenly felt that this adult seemed to want to let him and others go to Beidou City very much.
But does their whereabouts have anything to do with this adult?
"Answer my question." Yi Xiao said.
Fang Ju took a deep breath and said, "Yes, you have also seen that these children are still young, if Beidou City is really as powerful as you say, then it is not a wise choice to bring them there. β
In Fang Ju's opinion, although Beidou City is safer, it is mixed, and although Fang Ju is not afraid, they are afraid that such an environment will affect the children.
Although the base is not as safe as Beidou, it is famous, and I think it will take more care of the children.
Therefore, although Fang Ju and the others yearn for the life of Beidou, they hesitate between the two.
Hearing Fang Ju's answer, Yi Xiao couldn't help but glance at the players in front of him. As he spoke, Yi Xiao used a trace of the power of the Broken Sword Intent, and Fang Ju was still able to answer calmly, proving that he was definitely not lying.
I'd rather give up a better living environment, but also give the children a healthy space to grow up, from Fang Ju and a few people, Yi Xiao saw the most valuable and deadly thing in the last days - sacrificing himself for others!
If it were Yi Xiao, he would definitely save these children, but he would never let them become a burden to himself! He might choose to send these children to the base and then go to Beidou City alone, and he would definitely not be their nanny like Fang Ju and the others!
The last days are the world of strength, and only with strength can you protect what you want to protect, and only then can you have a greater say in this turbulent world!
There is nothing wrong with helping others when you are able, but it is blind to do whatever it takes to help others.
However, after knowing all this, Yi Xiao wanted to take these people under his account even more. Their character is not destined to be a hegemon, but they are more suitable for recruiting as subordinates!
Although their emotions are still a little naΓ―ve in this last days, they can definitely become a good jade after some polishing!
Thinking of this, Yi Xiao continued: "If your concerns are only these, then I don't think it's necessary at all. β
"Why?" Several people asked in unison.
It's fake if they don't yearn for Beidou City, the only thing they are worried about is the children, and now when they hear Yi Xiao say this, there is a trace of expectation in everyone's eyes.
If Yi Xiao can really give a reasonable explanation, then they will decide to choose Beidou!
"It's simple."
"First, Beidou City is more suitable for your development, and only with stronger strength can you better protect these children."
"Second, life at the base is not necessarily more suitable for these children, the survivors are all gathered together, and the management is loose, unlike Beidou City, which has clear management regulations. I've met survivors at the base, and the living conditions are not good. β
"Third, Beidou City can send someone to be responsible for the education and life of these children, helping them adapt to the life of the end times faster, instead of growing up to be flowers in a greenhouse under your protection."
No matter what era it is, children represent fire and hope.
See you this time[.] To the children protected by Fang Ju and others, Yi Xiao also noticed this problem.
With the [Lifeform Advanced Elixir], the children will have the same potential.
And for younger children, they are more malleable. Conducting a unified education and guiding them in both mental and combat aspects will have greater significance for them to adapt to the end times!
Strengthening the cultivation of this aspect will also be of great benefit to the development of Beidou City.
First, the formation of the education system will attract more people to join, and those who have become famous in Beidou will have a stronger sense of belonging to Beidou.
Who doesn't want to give their children a better space to grow? Even if you don't have children now, or have lost your own children, what about the future?
Second, there may be no direct benefits in the short term from cultivating these children, but with the cultivation of Beidou City, these children will definitely become the backbone in the future!
Therefore, Yi Xiao's decision was not only to subdue Fang Ju and others, but also for the development of Beidou.
As for the specific plan, there is no need for Yi Xiao to have a headache by himself.
What Yi Xiao has to do is just to decide, and I believe that Mo Hua will be able to give him a satisfactory answer for the specific implementation plan.
