After Shen Cheng built an arsenal, a labor-intensive farm, a chicken processing plant, a cannery, an ore refinery, and a textile factory in the base, the "idle" residents of Noah's base quickly disappeared.
With a stable job, long-term goals and hopes, for many people in the base, their hearts are settled, and they are no longer floating in mid-air like before, unable to find a place to stay.
Ordinary people who can’t afford combat mechas for the time being will choose to buy one in units of several households or people in a room, and distribute them separately after participating in the raid and having enough points. How about it, the increase in force value gave everyone in the base hope.
Among the supernatural beings, the supernatural being team headed by Yan Hongyu, Xi Nan, Chen Feng and others were active in the wasteland. Although there were casualties during the sweep, but with the support of the base's universal medicine, compared with Compared with other teams' casualties, Noah's progress is impressive and smooth.
Shen Cheng was looking through Zai Zai's diary every day when he went online.
[The main character got to know Tang Lv]
[The main character meets a group of mutant rats]
[…The group of mutated rats has been cleaned up. Minor injury... recovering]
…
[The main character's ability has been upgraded]
[The main character meets a highwayman]
[The main character cleared the robber's lair and found a large number of guns and ammunition. Saved]
Every time I go online, I feel that Zai Zai has a lot of stories in the days of wandering in the wasteland!
Shen Cheng felt itchy when she looked at the log, and was even a little annoyed that this game didn't allow her to watch Zai Zai's wonderful performance.
Zai Zai was tumbling and crawling outside by himself, and he didn't know if he had enough to eat, or if he was warm enough to wear clothes. He had a minor injury before, and this time it was a minor injury...
If it wasn't for Zai taking a photo every day full of energy and sending it to her, Shen Cheng doubted that he would not be able to continue with the infrastructure.
She was thinking about this when suddenly her phone vibrated, and a call message popped up directly. Shen Cheng looked at the unfamiliar number and suspected it was a spam call, but she hesitated for a moment and put the phone to her ear: "Hello?"
"Cheng Cheng." A strange, old voice came from over there, "It's Cheng Cheng, right? I'm your uncle."
Shen Cheng's hand trembled.
She didn't expect to receive a call from relatives on her father's side. After all, after so many years, she digested her parents' affairs by herself, and after she became an adult, she left her hometown to wander around on her own. She never saw them call to care, and Shen Cheng didn't care about their contact.
"Uncle?" She called out hesitantly, "What's the matter?"
"It's like this. Your grandfather passed away recently. We hope you can come back to attend the funeral." The uncle's voice was exhausted.
Shen Cheng froze for a moment.
She originally thought that she and her relatives over there would never see each other again. After all, she was alone, and the terrible family relationship that had been weak from the beginning to the end was even weaker.
The bullying in my memory has gradually faded, but the fear and shadow left behind are real and have never disappeared.
Funeral
The first question that came to her mind was: would it fit
She is a 'sangmen star', is it suitable to pay homage to the elderly
I'm afraid that the dead will have to be revived, right
Shen Cheng hesitated and said: "I'm afraid it's inconvenient. I just started working, so it's hard to ask for leave, and besides, grandpa didn't want to see me when he was alive..."
"Come if you are called," the uncle suddenly changed his tone.
Shen Cheng took two heavy breaths.
If it was said that she was forced to depend on others back then, and had to swallow her anger and obey everything, but now she is independent, neither owes them nor begs them.
You don't owe favors or money to others, so why hold back this tone
Shen Cheng was ready to refuse immediately.
Hearing the indifferent silence from her side, the uncle realized that she is not as easy to handle as in the past, and finally he relaxed a little: "Cheng Cheng, even if you have no relationship with us, your grandfather raised you back then. For such a long time, when the old man went to the funeral, you were the one who died early..."
"I'll go." When it came to this point, even the late father was moved out. Shen Cheng took a deep breath, but still said reluctantly, "...but I can't ask for leave, and I don't have the money to buy it." Air ticket to go back... Wait for me to take a leave of absence to clarify with the supervisor... "
Before she finished speaking, the uncle said in a hurry: "Give me your ZFB account number, and I'll transfer the air ticket money for you. You can buy it if you want, and if you can't keep up with the old man's funeral..."
Shen Cheng silently said hello, and hung up the phone.
She doesn't care about playing games anymore.
After a long sigh, she sent her account number to the phone number that called.
Seeing that the other party transferred more than a thousand air ticket fees almost instantly, and had already checked which day and which flight it was, deep doubts arose in Shen Cheng's heart: courtesy is inferior to others, and it must be Ask for something.
The uncle's family can't get up early without profit.
If there is no benefit or benefit to them, expect them to bleed, and even buy her a plane ticket out of their own pockets, without even paying back the price
This is definitely not the style of their family!
Grandpa passed away...
Shen Cheng suddenly thought of something, she searched the legal provisions, and roughly guessed the possibility.
That's right, only this kind of great benefit can make them temporarily ignore their current 'disadvantage', and even call themselves, their niece and daughter whom they despise so much, back to their hometown!
But what should she do
If it's as she expected, those people still have such an attitude when they ask for her now, obviously they have never put her in their eyes.
Then, when they deal with it specifically, they will adopt a similar attitude and a similar way of handling it, right
Shen Cheng had a general direction in his heart.
**
She didn't have time to play games in the past few days, and traveled thousands of miles back to her hometown in the small town of Jiangnan Water Town. Shen Cheng didn't buy the plane designated by her uncle and the others, but rushed to the small building where she used to live one day earlier.
Relying on his vague memory, he touched the place, but Shen Cheng saw the real estate agency taking a family of clients to look at the house---this small building was the first real estate owned by their Shen family back then, so naturally they bought it here The best location is back against the mountain and near the water, with cool breeze in summer, except that there are more mosquitoes in the river, there are no other defects.
The client of that family was obviously very satisfied with the house, but they went back and forth with the agent in terms of price. Shen Cheng watched them seesaw, frowned slightly, covered half of his face with an umbrella, and listened for a while. In a short while, there will be a number: In short, there is no agreement on the price, but generally speaking, with the skyrocketing housing prices, such a small courtyard located in the center of the small town can bring at least 6 million yuan to the uncle and his family!
This is really not a small sum of money!
The premise is, if they can swallow it in one breath.
Shen Cheng had an idea in mind, roughly estimated the price, turned around and went to find a small homestay to live in.
She had a rest here, and the uncle and the others went to the airport to pick her up but didn't pick her up. After inquiring, she found out that she didn't take the flight at all. The uncle became mad when he asked, and called her one after another at the airport. .
It's a pity that none of them got through from the beginning to the end.
The old man stood at the airport furiously, and the young and strong son stood beside him and sighed: "Dad, it's useless to be angry, maybe we offended people so badly back then, and now they grow up and don't want to talk to you." What about us!"
"What right does she have to hate us!" The old man said angrily, "Since she is so unfilial..."
"Then what can you do?" The son said lazily, "Can you still deprive her of her inheritance? If you want me to say, it's the fault of not making a will back then..."
"Shut up!" The uncle's eyes were bloodshot, staring at the son who was not opening the pot and carrying the pot, and he couldn't lose his temper at his only son for a long time, so he waved his hand and left angrily.
Shen Cheng guessed that they would make a call, so she just put the phone on silent and left it in the bathroom, closing the door and leaving it alone.
She regards the rare travel days since she graduated as travel and relaxation. Although it is a funeral and a return to her hometown, the old man has no affection for her and her parents. On the contrary, they have done their best. In addition to the obligation of support, and now that this group of people came here with other intentions, presumably that one was surrounded by his "filial sons and grandsons" when he left, and he should have passed away with a smile on his face.
What is she doing for fun? This is just an orphan girl who is not welcome.
Thinking of this, Shen Cheng slept in the sun and basked in the sun with peace of mind. After getting up, he picked up his phone and looked at it, raising his eyebrows: As expected, there were really more than twenty missed calls.
After she finished washing, she picked up her mobile phone and small bag Shi Shiran, and went to the mourning hall they set up for grandpa.
The uncle has sharp eyes, and he saw Shen Cheng almost at a glance. This eldest niece has never been ruthless since she was admitted to university, but she and her father look very similar, almost carved out of the same mold. of.
The uncle recognized her at a glance.
Looking at his already slim niece, the uncle had to admit that this girl was indeed beautiful, with delicate features, and she looked soft and beautiful, which was a rare sight in their Shen family. See you over the top.
The uncle stepped forward quickly and pulled her past: "Chengcheng, why didn't you answer my call when you came?"
Shen Cheng innocently said in a low voice: "... I'm really tired from work, and I rarely oversleep when I go back to my hometown. I'll come here as soon as I wake up, so I'm afraid you'll wait a long time."

Li Weilan hadn't heard from her for five days.
She would send photos before, sometimes it was the changes of the base, and sometimes it was some small stories and small things that happened in the base that she saw, so although others were not in the base, they were practicing outside, looking for opportunities for breakthroughs and opportunities for fighting. Despite the experience, Li Weilan's heart is still at ease.
But today is different.
She was like a kite with a broken string, and she disappeared for five days.
How can it be so long
Is it because he's not at home, so she doesn't even care about the base
In just over two weeks of traveling, Li Weilan's powers have broken through from level 3 to level 4. This is the progress he has made by repeatedly using space powers in exchange for surviving from near-death.
He originally had the idea of continuing to practice, but now he really can't calm down.
Pack up and go back to the city.
Just when he had this idea, strange to say, a new light-transmitting screen popped up in front of him, and it looked exactly like the video images he had seen before. It had no real shape to the touch, but it was clear. without any illusion.
Li Weilan kept his composure, the screen went from being blurry when it first appeared, as if it had been splashed with water, to gradually becoming stable, and in the end, it was almost as clear as a 3D image.
Li Weilan saw her immediately.
she's fine.
But he soon realized that it was too early to reassure himself.
He saw on the screen that Shen Cheng was surrounded by several men, and one of them was a tall and very strong man poking and pointing at her body, foaming at the mouth, extremely rude.
She was wearing a plain white dress, with a beautiful and gentle face, but at this moment, this little face was full of unwavering determination.
She faces so many men alone!
Are those people bullying him
Li Weilan was very anxious, but he could only watch her stubborn and heartbroken expression on the screen from thousands of miles away.
Under her strong exterior, Li Weilan saw the pain in her heart.
That's right, there are so many people, but no one stood up to support her or say a word for her!
Li Weilan dropped his fist on the invisible screen, the screen trembled, and a prompt popped up immediately:
[Whether to buy: Temporary travel qualification? Please note: this qualification is valid for one day only. If you do not purchase within three days, the overdue will no longer appear. Purchase price: 1000 points of space force.]
1000 points of space force
Li Weilan frowned. Next to this line of small print, there is a light blue piggy bank-like thing.
He tried to input his own ability into it, and as his ability was slowly injected, this thing ate up his ability, and then the numbers began to jump up slowly.
Li Weilan experimented, if he didn't keep anything, then it would take about two and a half days to fill up the small pond.
But this also means that during these two and a half days, he will pour a little bit of supernatural power into the pool, and if there is any danger during this period, it will be fatal to him.
But seeing how tight the time frame is, with a period of three days, Li Weilan is sure that this time must be pinched!
Coincidence can never be just a coincidence.
Wanting to see her overwhelmed everything else, Li Weilan began pouring supernatural powers into the pool desperately, not even paying attention to the slight swelling and pain of his supernatural core.
