The small stone house at the end of the square seemed to be the highest center of power in the village. Xigu and a group of old men stood in front of the stone house, all of them with serious expressions. ．m
On both sides of the stone house stood soldiers from the village, probably many in number. This time they took out all the guns. Except for a few young soldiers, almost everyone had a gun. The soldiers in the village were all surprised when Xi Lan held Xia Lei's zodiac energy sniper rifle, and then they were jealous. In this remote mountain village, these soldiers had never seen an energy sniper rifle, let alone an energy sniper rifle, even the most basic energy pistol.
Xia Lei sighed secretly. He didn't need to capture anyone's thoughts, but he had a bad feeling.
"Mr. Xia." Xigu said straight to the point: "Xilan has already told us what you said, and we have discussed it."
Xia Lei smiled bitterly, "So, village chief, what is the result of your discussion?"
Xigu said: "Mr. Xia, we feel honored that you can come to our remote place in the mountains. But this place is where our ancestors have lived for many years, and we don't want to leave here. Just leave, we won't follow you. You go to the Forest of Peace.”
Xia Lei smiled bitterly and said, "Have you really discussed it seriously?" Then Talan said, "Miss Xilan, have you really told them everything I said?"
"I..." Xi Lan hesitated, looking a little embarrassed.
In fact, Xia Lei knew the answer early on. Xilan told her grandfather and the villagers what he said, but her grandfather and several old men made such a decision.
When people get old, they will have a feeling of falling leaves and returning to their roots. How could these old people have the idea of following him to the resting forest to build the base of the Kingdom of Abundance and revive human civilization? These old men just want to spend their old age peacefully and live a few more years. They have no interest in the revival of human civilization or not. As for the threat from the Blue Moon people, this place has been peaceful for many years, and they are not very worried about the Blue Moon people attacking here. Danger that they have not seen or experienced with their own eyes is not a big deal to them.
Xia Lei said: "Okay, I understand what you old people think. If you don't want to come with me, I won't force you. But I think some of you young people here should go out for a walk and see the outside world. They should Have an ideal and then achieve it.”
"Go away. We don't welcome you here." A fat old man said unceremoniously: "We don't need your help. We have been here for many years. You suddenly came here and wanted to say a few words." Are you going to trick us into following you?"
"Yes, we don't want to leave with you. It's you who should leave." A tall, thin old man said.
"I'm talking about you young people here, not you." Xia Lei said. Following these old men is actually a burden, because they can hardly do anything, they just go to support themselves in old age, and he would be happy if they didn't go.
"The young people here don't want to go with you." A decently dressed old man said: "What's wrong with you? We don't want to go with you, so you should leave here. Do you want to force us to go with you?" ?"
“Mr.
Xia Lei's eyes swept over the young faces, "Do you really think so? The world outside is very big, you should go out for a walk. Young people should have young people's ideals and then realize them. Instead of wasting your time here in a daze."
The young people in the village seemed a little excited, but no one spoke. It is tempting for them to start a new life in the Resting Forest and pursue the ideals of young people, but it is a difficult decision for them to give up everything they have now. , not to mention that the old people in the village are still so opposed to it.
"Xi Lan, are you willing to come with me?" Xia Leilan asked.
"I..." Xilan wanted to go, but after Xigu glared at her, she changed her words and said, "No, I don't want to go."
"Is any of you willing to come with me?" Xia Lei asked the other young people.
No one responded to him.
"Mr. Xia, please leave here." Xi Gu said displeasedly.
"Okay, I'm leaving." Xia Lei walked up to Xilan and said, "Miss Xilan, please give me my gun."
Only then did Xilan realize that she was still holding Xia Lei's energy sniper rifle, and she returned the energy sniper rifle to Xia Lei.
Xia Lei took his zodiac energy sniper rifle and walked towards the entrance of the village. He kept walking without looking back.
The villagers watched him disappear at the entrance of the village, and then they started talking.
"Who does that guy think he is?" said an old man: "He actually asked our young people to follow him in front of us. He is too arrogant."
"That guy might be a bad guy and came to test us." An old man said: "Growing up, we should prepare our soldiers for battle in advance. That guy might come back with people to kill."
Another old man said: "I am not a good person. If he is as powerful and invulnerable as the children say, maybe he is not even a human being."
Xi Gu nodded, "Well, that guy is indeed a bit evil. We have to guard against him and should have made plans in advance."
Xilan couldn't help but said: "Grandpa, Mr. Xia is not a bad person. He really wants to help us. You drove him away. What if the Blue Moon people come?"
Xi Gu frowned, "You kid, you've only known him for how long, and you're just helping him talk like this?"
"Xilan, I grew up. You are a kind-hearted child, but you are too simple and can be easily deceived." An old woman said in a deep voice with an experienced attitude: "Don't do it because of him." He looks so trustworthy, but such a man is actually the most dangerous."
Xi Lan closed her mouth, she no longer knew what to say.
Although she shut up and stopped talking, the discussion became more and more intense. Some old people said that the village leadership used wisdom to resolve this crisis, while others said that Xia Lei was a liar whose purpose was to trick the young people in the village into becoming his slaves...
Xia Lei left, but the rumors did not disappear. Xia Lei has become a popular figure in the village, and topics related to him have also become hot topics. Every villager is talking about him, and every villager seems to have a different opinion about him. Just like that, the sunset of Eternity set, and it was getting dark.
At the foot of Sanxi Peak, in a bamboo-wood structure room. Xilan sat in front of the window, staring blankly at the pool outside. The pool has rippling blue waves and is crystal clear. But her mind was not on the scenery of Tanchi. She was still thinking about what Xia Lei had said. Young people should have young people's ideals, and they should realize them. But living in this isolated mountain village, what ideals could she have
"Xi Lan, we went out to eat. We have guests at home." Xi Shi's voice came in from outside the door.
"Oh, here we come." Xilan responded, then opened the door and walked out, "Brother, what guests are at home?"
"Da Zhuang and his mother." Xi Shi said, with a narrow smile on his face, "I'm so crazy about you, and I brought you a very generous gift this time. Don't be picky, either." , promise them, and then set a good date to get married."
Xilan frowned immediately, "I don't want to get married. I'm only 20 years old. I don't want to get married so early."
"It's not up to you to make the decision." Xigu's voice came out from the other side of the corner with a cold and serious look on his face. "Our village has our own rules. We cannot marry outsiders. If you don't marry Xigu, Zhuang, who else can you marry?"
"Grandpa, I didn't say I wanted to marry someone outside. I just... just... I'm only 20 years old. I don't want to get married so early, let alone have children and become a mother so early." Xilan explained carefully.
"Nonsense! I saw that boy named Xia Lei, he was so obsessed with it!" Xigu suddenly became angry.
Xishi advised from the side: "Sister, although Da Zhuang is not as good and down-to-earth as that boy, his family's family background is not bad. You won't have to endure hardship when you get married."
"When did I say that I like Mr. Xia? How long have I met him? How could you have such an idea?" Xilan said: "I just thought that what he said makes sense. There are always opportunities in this world. It may be destroyed, and none of us can escape it. If we all hide and don’t fight, then who will save us? Also, if you don’t even think about yourself in this world, isn’t your life in vain?”
Snapped!
Xigu slapped Xilan on the face.
Xilan covered her cheek.
Two more people walked out of the aisle behind the corner. A very dark-skinned young man, he was Xi Dazhuang who came to propose marriage. There is also an old woman, the woman who said Lan grew up during the day. She is a strong mother and has great prestige in the village.
Da Zhuang and his mother obviously heard what Xi Lan said. Both mother and son looked a little embarrassed and smiled.
"Xilan, don't think about that boy or what he said." Da Zhuang's mother said: "Our ancestors have been here for generations. This is a blessed land given to us by God. You can live in peace here. Isn’t it good? You have to go out and suffer hardships. That guy is a liar. He wants to trick you into following him, will you come?"
Da Zhuang said: "Xilan, I propose sincerely, so just agree. If you are engaged to me, you won't have random thoughts."
Xilan said: "What kind of logic do you have?"
"Xilan!" Xigu said sharply: "Watch your tone when talking to your fiancé!"
Xilan was stunned for a moment, "Fiancé? When did he... you..."
Xi Gu said: "This matter is settled, Da Zhuang, let's choose a good day for Da Zhuang and Xi Lan to get married later."
"Okay, okay, haha." Da Zhuang's mother smiled, "Xilan is the tallest woman in our village. She and Da Zhuang's child will definitely be taller in the future."
Da Zhuang also smiled, and his eyes couldn't help but move to Xilan's slender waist and plump dumplings. Xilan is not only the tallest woman in the village, but also the most beautiful and sexy woman. She is the well-deserved village beauty. Isn't this the purpose of his coming here
"I don't agree!" Xilan yelled, "I make my own decisions about my marriage!"
"If you say things like this again, I'll kick you out of the house!" After Xigu finished speaking, he waved his hand and slapped Xilan's other cheek.
There was a crisp sound.
The light suddenly disappeared.
There is no electricity in Sanxi Village, and all they use are primitive oil lamps. But it is still dusk at this time, and it is not time to light the lamps after dark. Why does it get dark all of a sudden
Several people subconsciously raised their heads. For a moment, their pupils dilated to the limit, and their mouths could not be closed.
On the top of the mountain, a huge spaceship was slowly descending. Announcement: Biquge app is online, supporting Android and Apple. Please follow the WeChat official account to download and install appxsyd (press and hold for three seconds to copy)
