Chapter 54: The new owner of the Holy Land Fortress(1/2)
Holy Land Fortress.
Thirty years have passed, today's holy land fortress is still calm.
People were a little curious about why Lord Zhuo He no longer came to the bottom to inspect.
But I think that in order to maintain the fortress, Lord Zhuo He probably has a lot to deal with.
People praise this great lord in the quiet morning, lazy afternoon, and beautiful night.
But I didn't know at all that the sixth floor had undergone earth-shaking changes.
The fake master Yu Xiaozhe is not only a good fraud on his ID.
He is also a master of false voice, disguise and makeup.
This is why Lin Sen chose to work with Yu Xiaozhe.
The principle is similar to that of many ancient college students who fantasize about having a roommate who is proficient in false voice, thin, and knows about women's clothing.
In short, under the cover of Xiaozhe and Lin Sen, everything in the Holy Land Fortress has not been exposed.
People still send only a few talented people to mining in public green areas every day.
Then after returning to the fortress, start a wonderful life that lasts for a week without having to work.
After all, in this era, mineral sources can not only maintain the electricity needed by the pyramid, but also convert them into ingredients for various nutritious meals.
Everyone is looking forward to such a beauty that can last until the end of their lives.
Although I always feel guilty deep down, what can such a guilt change after years of hardship and a wonderful life?
At night, people from all households start taking a walk, which is the most lively time of the street.
As before, Mrs. Wu was still chatting with her neighbors about some things.
Lu Chao'an and his son were playing basketball, one of the few ball sports, not far away.
Their life is as regular as if pressing on reprinted paper, repeating day by day, dull.
So the moment when panic came, it was so abrupt.
People in this community will always turn their eyes on the place covered by the black curtains.
But the curtain disappeared tonight.
The huge black curtain was slowly pulled open like a big show.
The person who saw this scene first rubbed his eyes.
He is a doctor and has lived in this community for twenty-seven years.
For twenty-seven years, the doctor has never seen the curtain be pulled open at night.
The fixed thinking suppressed his surprise first. In the few seconds after realizing it, those surprises were like compressed springs suddenly lost pressure—
Suddenly, he widened his eyes and let out a scream.
The black crowd walked out of the crack.
The doctor looked at this scene in disbelief.
Those people's hair is yellow, greasy, and dirty. Their skin is pale, but it seems to be covered with a thick layer of dirt, or it is already covered with sores that have lived in humid areas all year round.
It’s like a box that has been left in a corner for decades. When the wind blows, it can blow up a piece of disgusting dust.
They were dressed in tattered clothes, and even if they were just looking from a distance, they could feel that the materials of the clothes had been moldy and damaged because they had been in a humid and dark place for many years.
These people are slow to go.
Like refugees coming out of the dark world.
More and more people have seen this scene.
The residents of the Holy Fortress all opened their mouths and widened their eyes, watching all this in disbelief.
The beautiful life of thirty years seems to have wiped out their ability to accept new things.
The people who were still chatting the moment before were like losing their souls.
The crowd kept coming out of the dark portal.
The number even exceeded 1,000 people.
These returnees looked different, confused, joyful, surprised, sad and angry.
They also looked at the others.
Looking at the surprised look of the people around me, looking at their bright and beautiful clothes, I felt the smell of air in the pyramid.
Some things that should have been forgotten crawled out of the shadows and gaps in memory.
Until this moment, the residents of the Holy Fortress had not all realized what was going on.
But in the end, some people recognized some of the returnees and instantly covered their mouths, and various complex emotions surged out.
Mrs. Wu is one of them. The big incident she had always been premonition these days finally came. She was very scared. When she saw the girl walking in front of the crowd-
Her legs seemed to have no strength in an instant, and she immediately collapsed on the ground, covering her mouth and crying.
In nearly four years, Lu Lingyi had already cut off the idea of going back in the second year.
She swept those who had abandoned herself to the corner of her consciousness like she was cleaning up the residue.
But the moment he walked out of the portal, Lingyi still recalled everything without any effort.
When the grandma who taught her medical skills was flooded by the stinky pond water, Lingyi thought she had lost the last relative in this world.
But after his eyes fell on Mrs. Wu, he couldn't move apart.
Looking at Mrs. Wu's tears in pain, it was like the regret and guilt that had been taken root in the past few years.
Lu Lingyi thought that her heart was absolutely cruel. She walked to Mrs. Wu, then looked around again, and saw her father who had not yet found her in the distance, and her younger brother who was only six years old at the time.
Lingyi smiled, with sarcasm and self-pity in her smile.
She looked at Mrs. Wu again and said calmly:
"Mom, have you ever thought that I will come back one day?"
Mrs. Wu was stunned.
Just like the dreams she has had these days, she saw her daughter's thin body and bright eyes.
Then I can't say a word.
Linyi did not make any irrational actions either.
This was the case many years ago. My daughter was always the one who was the most sensible. She was smart, independent, had strong learning ability, and was very skillful. She was very quick to do all kinds of tasks.
The neighbors all envied the Lu family's daughter.
Compared to his son, he is naughty and does not like to study. He often causes some trouble.
But he has talent.
No one is willing to cultivate feelings for twelve years, and then suddenly cut off the feelings because of the lack of talent.
This is also an extremely cruel thing for humans.
Therefore, the people in this fortress all have their own methods of detecting talents.
The sister never understands it. He is obviously more sensible, but why did his father never smile at himself when he came back after taking him to the mining area that day?
Later, my mother didn't pay much attention to me.
Later, the neighbors seemed to see some good things.
Memories are grey pictures.
She sat in the yard of her house, not far away was her younger brother, and some other children were playing together.
The adults smiled at the innocent innocence that children showed. Only themselves, sitting alone in the yard.
It was not until the day she was expelled that she finally realized that it was not them who didn't play with her.
It turns out that I am not stupid and ignorant.
But I... have no future at all.
Lingyi looked at Mrs. Wu.
In the past four years, many times when she recalled these things, she would cry silently.
But today, she did not shed tears. Her tears had long been evaporated by the bright and warm sunshine when Tang Xian took her away from the sinkhole.
Lingyi didn't expect that so many complex emotions, so many resentment, unwillingness, grievances would eventually turn into a smile:
"I'm here to say goodbye to you. Mom, thank you for giving birth to me."
Mrs. Wu's whole body shook, and this sentence was like a knife cut into her heart.
