Zhang Lu staggered to the door of the house, didn't take out the key, and directly poked the keyhole with his finger, and with a "click", the door lock opened.

He was about to push the door in, but the voice of the neighbor's uncle came from behind him: "Yo, you're back, where have you been for more than a year, and you can't call your mobile phone?"

Zhang Lu hurriedly turned his face and smiled at the uncle: "Starting a business, it is inevitable to run around, I went to that place too backward, there is no mobile phone signal - sorry, I always worry about you." ”

The uncle was obviously very idle, and he didn't plan to leave when he stood there: "Have you eaten, do you want to go to my house to pad a little? Anyway, there is still a place without a mobile phone signal? Where is it, Northwest Tibet? You won't go to that Ali area, right?"

Zhang Lu patted his stomach: "After eating, I won't bother you - I went to a foreign country, Africa, where except for some big cities, most of the countryside has no signal." Then he stretched out his hand and pushed the door open: "Do you want to come in and sit down?"

The uncle seemed to be waiting for his words, and immediately stepped into the house with a smile, and said in his mouth: "Africa, that is really backward - you mean Central Africa, East Africa or something, I heard that South Africa and North Africa are still progressive, and I have never had the opportunity to take a look at it in my life." After entering the house, he swept his eyes left and right: "Basically, every week, I or your aunt will come in to help you roughly put it together, check if there is any problem with water and electricity, and dust off the floating soil." I said if you go for that long, you might as well rent it out temporarily, and it will be considered an income, right?"

Zhang Lu pointed to the sofa: "Uncle, sit down - you and aunt are tired, and when I am free, I will invite you two elders to have a good meal, which is a thank you gift." ”

The last time he left Earth, he was still a little reluctant - especially after nearly a year in his house in order to wait for the crossing period of the three nothings - and always felt that he would come back...... No, as long as there is a chance, I will definitely come back, so before leaving, I pretended to go far away, and the return date was undecided, and I specially asked the neighbor uncle to help take care of the empty house.

Originally, Zhang Lu and Sanwu went in and out from the pocket earth world to the real earth, making a mess of the timeline, if it weren't for the immortal body, it is estimated that they would have fainted. Zhang Lu came in the first two times, the interval was relatively short, and he didn't feel anything, and the third time he returned to the house with Sanwu, he found that the other "self" who was supposed to stay at home had disappeared without a trace, but the computer was still on, and the money and cards in the drawer were gone...... Sanwu guessed that it was probably because the same two objects could not appear at the same time, so the rules of nature completely wiped out the previous one.

Then Zhang Lu and Sanwu started a business in the name of nearly a year at home, and then went together to explore the truth of Sanwu crossing. Who would have thought that Sanwu would come back alone soon after, so he went to Zhang Lu's house first and erased this history, so that when Zhang Lu went to the earth again, he almost didn't turn a corner.

So in the memory of the uncle, Zhang Lu and his friend surnamed Ma claimed to be a businessman, and he only lived at home for more than a month, not for a year at all, and then the surname Ma disappeared, Zhang Lu stayed for a day or two, and said that he was going to go far away, and then he went away for more than a year, and he couldn't be contacted at all, and he was wondering whether to call the police......

Or did the old woman say that more things are better than less, why do you want to deal with the police? The uncle then put down the anxiety in his heart and continued to wait for Zhang Lu to come back. Finally, when it arrived, the little guy did not lack arms or legs, except that he was still not very careful—you won't make a phone call first when you came back—and claimed to go to Africa, and even people didn't get tanned. The uncle knows Zhang Lu's personality very well, and knows that he does not have the courage to be a traitor (in fact, Zhang Lu now, has experienced so many things, even his life form has changed, and his heart is naturally very different from before, if he does not consider moral issues, it is really hard to say whether he will commit a crime), so he does not interrogate the other party in detail about what has happened in the past year, but just asks: "How are you doing in entrepreneurship, and can you still leave?"

Zhang Lu shook his head: "Don't go, I found a stable job, and it will be nine to five in the morning in the future...... Of course, overtime and business trips may occur. ”

When he came back this time, he really didn't plan to go again. Although things are busy in the sky, you can take advantage of the difference in time flow to separate work and rest, just like clocking in and going to work in the mortal world.

As the saying goes, "the golden nest and the silver nest are not as good as my kennel", besides, with Zhang Lu's current ability -- more importantly, today's life form -- what is the difference between the kennel and the gold nest and the silver nest? And which kennel can't be transformed into a gold nest and a silver nest?

As for Sanwu, he also plans to abandon the study star and return to the earth to live, but because he left in a hurry last time, he didn't have to explain, and most of the year has passed, and he doesn't know if he will be regarded as a missing person, and his home and property will not belong to him...... I guess I'll have to toss it for a while. Fortunately, it was only a little troublesome, and even if he recreated his identity, it wouldn't be a big deal with what he could do.

Because Wei Qiang and Zhang Lu are busy with their work in the sky, the heavy responsibility of leading the earthlings on the road of cultivating immortals has been handed over to the shoulders of Sanwu and Wei Wencheng.

After chatting for a while, after sending off the uncle, Zhang Lu turned on the computer and roughly searched for the news during this time. It hasn't taken long to unlock the seal of the earth, and even if the earth's time flow is not synchronized with the sky, it should be less than a year, and so far, nothing strange has happened. The vitality on the earth is much more abundant than before, and it seems to be gradually becoming orderly, which Zhang Lu has sensed when he just came back, but for mortals, it is not perceptible at all.

Of course, there may also be a very small number of people with special qualifications, who are born with the cultivation of immortal roots in the cultivation world - if they are in Qingxuan, they are considered the best of the five grade wisdom roots, and the two major sects will rush to ask for them, and they may feel that their life forms are slightly different from the past. However, the time is still short, and it is impossible for them to truly "mutate", and they will not produce any powerful abilities before they are guided and really start cultivating.

As for the lead, maybe a whole group of "Supermans" will come out in a short period of time, or "X-Men", Avengers or something, will it make a mess of the earth...... Let's take one step at a time.

The heavy responsibility of leading the earthlings to cultivate immortals fell on the shoulders of Sanwu and Wei Wencheng, Suo Tai and Lu Lingyin originally persuaded Sanwu to find a place rarely visited as a base, but Sanwu scoffed: "Do you really want to drive me to Tibet or even Nepal? I want to teach apprentices there, so I can only recruit a group of young people - I will stay in the city of Beijing." Xiao Wei, you also continue to live with Tianjin. ”

Suo Tai said that of course, you can find any place for oral apprenticeship, but if you show any skills to the apprentices, it is not suitable to put it in a crowded city. San Wu smiled: "I have mentioned to you about the pocket earth, and I will also connect a small pocket world at home at that time, so won't the problem be solved?" Zhang Lu, I still have to rely on your help in this regard, you are a real game planner." ”

Zhang Lu reminded him: "The pocket world can only capture people's souls, and we also entered it with our minds at the beginning, if we can't achieve positive results and change the form of life, it is estimated that we will definitely not be able to go back......

"No problem," San Wu waved his hand with a big grin, "I'll take their souls in, as long as I don't destroy their bodies at the same time, won't it be?" I teach them in the pocket world, and I really want to actually practice and let them find a suitable venue for themselves to go - this is also a means to test their hearts, isn't it?"

He made up his mind, and Zhang Lu and the others didn't want to persuade him much. Wei Qiang said: "Let him go, although this thief is not very reliable, he will not dare to mess around when he encounters such a big thing after all-besides, with our help, what will be the big problem?"

The matter is settled, Zhang Lu has to help Sanwu build a pocket world structure first. However, this pocket world is much simpler, no plot, no even NPCs, as long as there is a scene, simulating a wide enough field to do, for Zhang Lu, it is a matter of relying on Marco. His main energy must be on the major issue of how he will live on earth in the future.

Although he doesn't need to eat or drink on earth, he doesn't need to take a car, and all the necessities of life for urban people, such as food, clothing, housing, and transportation, are all things outside his body for him, but you can't help but come into contact with others, otherwise why do you come back to this room? Since you have to pretend to be in contact with people, for example, you have to pay for your uncle and aunt to eat...... You can't always counterfeit money.

Fortunately, although Zhang Lu said that he worked in the sky and returned to the earth to rest, he didn't need to sleep, and he had a lot of time to work a second job. He has already thought about what kind of work to rely on to make money on the earth - it is still his old job, making games! With his current level of architecture and programming ability, even if he is not as good as Zhang Yi, he is considered a leader on the earth, especially one person can be used as a hundred people, planning, programming, and art. You can try to make a few independent games and sell them to major game platforms, and you don't want to be developed, and you can maintain a well-off living standard in front of others.

Just thinking like this, he suddenly heard a sound of crawling in the direction of the window, Zhang Lu turned his head to look, and saw an extremely fat orange cat squatting on the windowsill and waving to him...... What about the claws? Zhang Lu naturally recognized it, wasn't this Lu Lingyin, and hurriedly opened the window—"What are you doing?"

Lu Lingyin jumped in, tilted her flat head, and searched left and right: "Come and see where you live—what, aren't you welcome?"

The corners of Zhang Lu's mouth twitched: "This won't be the ...... you said"

"That's right," Lu Lingyin tilted her head and put on a very cheap pose, "This is Miss Cat, do you look at my beauty?"

"Beautiful, it's fat enough......," Zhang Luyi frowned, "Anyway, doesn't the owner of this cat live in the East Third Ring Road?

"But it's not difficult......" Lu Lingyin didn't finish speaking, and heard someone knock on the door again. Zhang Lu first made a silent gesture to her, and then walked over to open the door, it turned out that the neighbor's uncle came here again. At first, Zhang Lu thought that the uncle was here to bring him food - after all, it was just after noon, and Zhang Lu had just left home again, although he said "I have eaten", in the eyes of the uncle, it may be just a kind word - but I didn't expect that the uncle came in empty-handed, and then leaned back on the sofa.

Lu Lingyin had already shrunk behind the sofa in advance. The uncle patted his side and asked Zhang Lu to come and sit down, as if he wanted to talk.

What does Zhang Luxin mean by this? Do you really want to inquire about my experience in "Africa" this year?

"Xiao Zhang, I remember that last month was your birthday, and this is twenty-nine, right?"

Zhang Lu nodded, and listened to the uncle continue: "I know that you young people don't have the habit of getting married early, but it's almost thirty, and it's time to start preparing - do you have a girlfriend?"

Zhang Lu felt that his head was "buzzing"--I rely on this to urge marriage! He had just muttered a "no" when he saw the uncle take out a stack of photos from his pocket and spread them on the coffee table in front of him—

"It stands to reason that we shouldn't care about this kind of thing, but your parents are gone, and our neighbors who have been old for more than ten years have to help worry about it. Your aunt has been thinking about you, no, I have collected a lot of photos of acquaintances and daughters, and you can see if there is anyone who looks at the right eye, so that I can introduce you to meet. Just give the uncle a face, you promise to see it first, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to your aunt. Oh, look at the photos, as for the name, occupation, and education, your aunt is also written on the back of the photo......"

Zhang Lu had a bitter face, and said in his heart that it is not easy to live on this earth...... Am I just going back to "Africa"......

The fat cat grinned and rolled straight behind the couch.
