Chapter Twenty-Nine: Enlightenment

The night is like water, quietly coming, the wilderness and jungle shrouded in darkness seem to be covered with a black curtain, and among the stars, there is a round of 'bright moon' that seems unusually abrupt.

In this 'Bright Moon', clusters of bonfires are scattered, illuminating the surroundings. The campfire-lit huts are arranged around a clearing in which three strange buildings stand alone, and on the periphery of these huts is an even larger clearing, in which figures weave and build new ones.

Further out, there are patches of newly turned fields, and on the periphery of the fields, dense crowds are divided into two, one side is cut down to clear the open land, and the other side is reclaimed into new fields, and the cut wood is transported to one place, piled up into a wooden 'giant mountain'.

On the giant mountain, Meng Yi stood quietly, looking at the still expanding Guardian City, at this time, it had been three days since they entered the wilderness, and there were nearly 200,000 people in the Guardian City, and the number was still increasing one after another.

In addition to the first ones, Su Lao sent people to the city to recruit 50,000 people, and the relatives and friends of the soldiers sent by Su Laotuo's comrades-in-arms were also more than 10,000 people, as for the rest, the city and technology disappeared one after another, and Meng Yi also did not refuse, all of them were recruited, and participated in the construction of the Guardian City.

"It's going to start tomorrow!" Meng Yi muttered as he looked up at the starry sky.

"What started?" Su Xue's voice suddenly sounded.

"Nothing. ”

Meng Yi looked at Su Xue, who appeared behind him at some point, and shook his head. However, there was a wry smile in his heart, maybe the earth has been too comfortable recently, and even his vigilance has been relaxed, and he didn't even notice that Su Xue walked behind him.

But maybe it's because it's Su Xue who came, Meng Yi looked at the beautiful girl in front of her, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously revealed a hint of a smile, but there was still a trace of concern hidden in the smile.

However, Su Xue, who was lowering her head at this time, was extremely entangled in her heart, and she didn't notice Meng Yi's abnormality at all.

There was silence all around, and after a long time, Su Xue suddenly raised her head, stared at Meng Yi with clear eyes and said, "Wood, do you like me?"

Hearing Su Xue's words, Meng Yi was slightly stunned, but he knew the answer in his heart, but he fell into an inexplicable silence at this time.

Su Xue's eyes darkened when she saw this: "Sure enough, no wonder you have been avoiding me all these days." ”

Hide, but he has been busy planning and building the immortal city in the past few days, and the time for the fusion of ten thousand stars is gradually approaching, even his cultivation is a little lax, and he really doesn't have the heart to think about anything else.

It's just Su Xue, he knows very well that this girl has been deeply engraved in his heart, but he doesn't dare to make him promise lightly in the future, so in the face of Su Xue, he always subconsciously avoids it.

"But, what do I like you to do!" Su Xue lowered her head, her eyes covered with a layer of mist.

A tear fell, Meng Yi's heart trembled, he reached out and hugged the girl in front of him into his arms, and then said softly: "It's not that I don't like it, but I don't dare to like it, the future world is too dangerous, even I don't have enough confidence to protect everything." ”

"But why do you want to protect it alone, you still have everyone, and everyone in the Guardian City. Su Xue looked up at Meng Yi, and there was still a hint of crystal in her eyes.

Is there anyone else, Meng Yi heard Su Xue's words, and couldn't help but recall what happened after he was reborn.

After returning from rebirth, he has been working hard to become stronger with his prophetic foresight, and he also knows that the future world can only be resisted by everyone's concerted efforts, so he will spend his energy to save Su Lao and them, help them become stronger, and finally establish the world's first immortal city.

Before that, he had always thought that he was on the right path, but now he found that he had been trapped by himself in his previous life, after all, he was withdrawn in his previous life, and he had no friends, although he gathered a lot of people around him with his prophetic preconception in this life, but the character that had become a type in his previous life made him still subconsciously think that everything could only rely on himself.

Therefore, after being reborn, whether he encounters danger or difficulty, he will choose to face it alone, and although the establishment of the immortal city has been handed over to Su Lao, he still pays attention to everything behind his back, and even his own cultivation is relaxed.

I rely too much on the experience of my previous life, but I forget that my previous life has passed, and those experiences are only auxiliary, and everything in this life is actually a new beginning.

Thinking of it, a hint of a smile appeared on Meng Yi's face, and there seemed to be a haze in his heart that suddenly dissipated, and at the same time, the nebula map in his sea of knowledge suddenly moved rapidly, and in the center of the sea of knowledge, a transparent spiritual power star slowly condensed, and the original green star also slowly condensed around this spiritual power star.

Seeing the smile on Meng Yi's face, Su Xue's face also showed a smile, she gently leaned her head on Meng Yi's shoulder, and murmured: "And you still have me, even if it is dangerous, I will stand by your side and face it with you, and I will die without regrets." ”

Hearing Su Xue's words, Meng Yi couldn't help but hug the girl in his arms tighter, he knew that he would not be willing to let go of the person in his arms in his life.

The starlight sprinkled, draped in a silver veil for the couple, Su Lao in the distance looked at the two embracing each other, a smile appeared on his face, and he turned to leave.

The night gradually faded, and in the distance, a round of red sun slowly rose, Meng Yi looked at the shining stars in the sky, and knew in his heart that it was not far from the day when human beings would enter the Flood Desolate Continent, but looking at Su Xue who was sleeping quietly in his arms, a smile appeared on his face.

Because he knows that he is no longer alone now, and he will definitely do everything to protect the people he wants to protect.

......

As the sun rose, humans who woke up from their sleep looked at the sky in horror, and the stars were shining in the sky at this time, and they were slowly approaching the earth with the naked eye.

"Alas, what's wrong with this world, since then after that meteor shower, events that humans can't understand have appeared one after another, and I don't know what is hidden behind all this?"

Meng Yi chuckled when he heard Su Lao's words: "Su Lao, it's still the same sentence, no matter what happens, we have nothing to do now but bear it." ”

"Hehe, too. Hearing Meng Yi's words, Su Lao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Xiao Yi, then what should we do now?" Lin Long looked at Meng Yi and asked.

"Do you remember the prompt before the flood system, if we want to find the reason for the fairy city, it is estimated that this is for this, so as long as we build the fairy city, we should be able to survive this incident. Meng Yi reminded.

"Hint? Yes, Xiaoyi is still smart, I will go down and arrange it immediately, and let them speed up and build the fairy city quickly." As soon as Lin Lao's words fell, he turned around and left.

And Meng Yi said to Su Lao, left the Guardian City, and went to the jungle to explore.
