Old man Zhou was stubborn, Wu Qingyuan couldn't make sense, and Old Wu also persuaded him not to listen. In the end, it was decided that only Wu Qingyuan left alone.

In fact, what Old Man Zhou said is not without reason. The two of them are very old, and they will have a good life in a few years.

But Wu Qingyuan is still worried. The end of the world will come in a few months. It is too dangerous for two old people to live alone, but they are unwilling to leave. He has no choice. The only thing he can do is to find a way to let the two old people Live the last few years of your life safely.

Therefore, as soon as the matter was decided, before the time that Old Man Zhou said had arrived, he did not leave immediately for Y province, but continued to live in the two old homes.

The 800,000 that was extorted from Wu Sufen, and the more than 1 million that mortgaged the house in the hands of high-yield lenders have not been used yet. Although this money is not too much, it is used to renovate the two old houses and reserve some living materials. But it is enough.

The houses of the two old people are made of big rocks. The shape is not as popular as the modern small buildings, but the sturdiness is good. It does not need much change. The only thing that needs to be done is to take some protective measures, except for zombies. , people in the last days are also very dangerous.

After thinking about it, Wu Qingyuan immediately ran to a high price to ask someone to repair another wall outside the fence of the two old courtyards. The inside and outside walls were made with a lot of anti-theft sawtooth nails, and at the same time, he went to buy a lot of materials. return.

In addition to the most basic grain, oil, rice, noodles, clothes, etc., there are also some solar generators, air conditioners, water purifiers and other facilities. When the two old people grow something in the yard, they can be self-sufficient without leaving the yard within a few years. Self-sufficient.

But after finishing all these, Wu Qingyuan was still not at ease. After thinking about it, he specially contacted his former old friend to help find two specially trained Tibetan mastiffs to be transported by air, and used his mental power to set spiritual hints for the two Tibetan mastiffs to protect the two old men. This is a little relieved.

With the severe increase in temperature, all kinds of prices are rising. The villagers in the mountain village can't help but smack their tongues secretly when they see that Wu Qingyuan is buying things at the two old houses every day.

Most of the rural people are not very wealthy. Although they are not poor now, there are not many people like Wu Qingyuan who can throw away hundreds of thousands.

Especially now that prices are skyrocketing due to the weather, a pound of vegetables and an ice cream are sold for a high price of tens of dollars, and everyone is even more reluctant to spend money, just waiting for the price to come down after this period of time, anyway, it used to be In this way, everyone knows that this time the situation is completely different.

The two elders have lived in the village for more than 20 years, and they have a lot of affection for the village. Wu Qingyuan was also worried that when the apocalypse broke out, the whole village would be fine with the two old families. This situation might be unfavorable. The village chief invited him to his house for dinner, and he revealed some news to the village chief during the meal.

Of course, the village chief is an outsider after all. Wu Qingyuan did not dare to say it too clearly. He just said that he heard the news in the city. The weather may continue for a while, and prices will rise. Let the village chief inform the villagers to save more. Better to have some food.

"Okay, okay, I'll hold a meeting for everyone later. If the price goes up again, our village will starve to death..."

The two elders are very famous in the village, and the village chief has no doubts. He is also a man who has lived for several decades, and he is very worried when he sees the weather.

"Do your best to persuade every household in the village, don't be reluctant to give up money, try to save as much food as possible at home, and make the doors and windows of the house strong to prevent thieves from coming. I have some money here to donate to the village, you see Seeing that the family in the village is in trouble, please help me, but I have to ask Grandpa Li to pay attention when handling this matter, if it spreads above, I am afraid the police will have to find me, saying that I spread rumors and locked me up."

In order to prove the veracity of his words, Wu Qingyuan donated the last remaining 200,000 yuan to the village. Now the village chief is more convinced. After all, who has nothing to spend so much money to lie?

"You can rest assured young man, I know the importance of the old man."

After solemnly guaranteeing that he would not reveal him, the village head hurriedly left and promptly notified the village to hold a meeting.

This village is not big, there are only a few dozen households in total, and the people who stay in the village at the moment are all elderly people with stubborn thoughts. As soon as the village chief said the situation, they all agreed. He went home and took out the money to prepare quickly, feeling that he had food at home.

Some people are reluctant to see everyone doing this, plus the prices in the county and city are rising every day, and they feel panic, and finally they can't resist the mentality of following the crowd to reserve food.

Seeing that the people in the village were busy, Wu Qingyuan was very satisfied, so that when the apocalypse broke out in the future, the grain reserves in the two old homes would not be conspicuous.

It is less than a month before the end of the world breaks out. The increasingly severe weather has caused many strong laborers who are running around to work outside to return to the village. In addition to the summer heat, it is also because of the rising prices in the city that the people who go out to work in the village bear the burden. Amazing.

The time when the tengu eats the sun in Wu Lao’s mouth is actually the day when the virus snowed in the previous life, and there was still a little time. Wu Qingyuan used his supernatural powers to help his second master to recuperate his body, while running out every night to surround the village with some plants To ripen.

Once the end of the world comes, these plants that have been ripened in advance will be transformed by viruses, which will speed up the time of mutation. They are aggressive, but they are only aimed at foreign invasions. Instead, they will protect their own internal territory and will become a village in the future. Natural barriers, many bases in the late apocalypse use these plants to guard against zombies.

Wu Qingyuan didn't know that his move would turn the village into a paradise in the future. All he wanted to do was to do his best to build a fortress for the two elders to spend their old age peacefully. Transplantation and ripening were performed.

After everything was ready, Wu Qingyuan finally left the village after spending a few days quietly with the two elders and went to Y province to go to the place that Old Man Zhou said.

In any case, reborn once, he has to live well.

Now not only is there a problem with the weather, but the magnetic field has also been affected. The plane no longer dares to fly in the sky, for fear of losing the flight. Wu Qingyuan can't take the plane and can only drive again.

Day and night on the road, he finally arrived at the place Old Man Zhou said the day before the heavy snowfall. It was just an ordinary mountain col, nothing special.

But according to the old man Zhou, he accidentally traveled here from ancient times on the day of the eclipse of the dog.

Later, based on the legends and materials of the village where the col was located, there were still speculations. He estimated that every time the Tengu eclipsed the sun, there might be something like a wormhole magnetic field connecting to other worlds. In other words, it was traversal.

Therefore, it is precisely because he can't guarantee that he will be able to return to his hometown, coupled with his partner's poor health, and the two are too old to live for a few years, Old Man Zhou is reluctant to leave.

After spending the night in the uneasy and nervous camping in the mountains, Wu Qingyuan finally let go of his heart when the legendary crossing magnetic field appeared at noon the next day.

He was really afraid that Old Man Zhou's guess would not hold true. If the crossing magnetic field did not appear, he would have to endure here until the end of the apocalypse. Having experienced the apocalypse, he yearned for a peaceful world and life more than anyone else.

Taking a last look at the earth that was already snowing, Wu Qingyuan resolutely entered the magnetic field in front of him.

****************

Jiangyi County is a very common small county in the territory of Xia Kingdom. It is not too prosperous, but it is also very lively.

Because there is a Shiqiao Town within Jiangyi County, this town is adjacent to two huge canal tributaries, and it is a rest stop for merchants from north to south to supply food and supplies on board, thus driving the flow of people and development around.

Every month or two when the merchants settle down for business, in addition to the long-term workers who make a living by moving goods, some strong men in the surrounding villages will also go to the wharf to work as temporary workers for a few days to earn some extra money. Lin Laogen is one of these strengths.

Lin Laogen lives up to his name. He is already in his 40s and 50s. Although he has been working in the fields all year round, he is still in good health and has a lot of strength, but after all, he is not as old as a young and strong worker. He is also a lame man. The merchants who docked and docked did not like to ask him to move goods like this. They either felt that it was a waste of money, or they cut the price of the labor by half.

Therefore, Lin Laogen's daily business is not very good, and he doesn't make much money, but he still runs to the dock every day during this period. Anyway, during this period of time, the field work is not busy, and it is always good to earn a little extra money. This is how the money of the country people is accumulated.

"Lin Laogen, I'm here to earn dowry and study money for your little brother and son again. Forget about your son, it's not that we say it badly, just like your little brother, you still expect others to be true. Like? It's just that he can work, it's too much of a loss for you to save so much dowry..."

A familiar man greeted him and laughed and teased.

"Bah, bah, my brother Lin is good at everything except that he is not good-looking. There is no younger brother in the village who can match it, so no one likes it. The green flower in the next village is uglier than my brother Lin. I heard that I got married a few days ago, and the man still loves his daughter-in-law very much, my brother Lin will definitely marry a good family in the future!"

As soon as he heard someone belittling his own baby, Lin Laogen gave up, stared, and defended Balabala's rebuttal.

Everyone listened and laughed and agreed not to argue with him. Anyone who knows Lin Laogen knows that this old man is honest and easy to talk, but if anyone says he has two children, he will change his temper and have to fight to win. It's just that his mother doesn't give face, just a few words of ridicule.

"Hey, there's a boat coming!"

While talking and laughing, don’t know who shouted. Everyone turned their heads and saw a wooden boat slowly approaching the pier. Those who made money immediately stopped chatting and hurried over.

Lin Shugen's eyes also lit up, and he limped over with a sweat towel.
