The door was opened, and a man in his early fifties walked in. He was not old, but the hair on his temples was white. Most of his hair was black, and he looked like a scholar.
Behind him was a woman who looked to be in her fifties. She had a benevolent appearance and looked like a very amiable person. However, right now, she was filled with melancholy.
They were Chu Feng's parents, Chu Zhiyuan and Wang Jing.
"I don't know where Feng is. I'm so worried," Wang Jing said. She took out her communicator to contact him as soon as she got home.
Because, in the past two days, there was a sudden unrest in many places. Some strange beasts began to break into the villages, and many murders occurred. It really scared her.
"Feng said that he came back with someone. There was a mutant in the car, so he should be fine. Don't worry." Chu Zhiyuan comforted his wife.
"Mom, dad!"
Wang Jing was startled. She looked towards the living room and saw Chu Feng walking towards the entrance. The worry on her face suddenly disappeared, and she was very happy.
"Feng, you are back!"
Even though Chu Feng had long since grown up, he was still a child in her eyes. She quickly went over and pulled him to her side. Her face was full of smiles as she looked at him from left to right. These days, she had been constantly worried that Chu Feng would be in danger outside.
"It's good that you are back!" Chu Zhiyuan was also very happy.
"Why didn't you tell us when you came back?" Wang Jing scolded him.
"I wanted to give you a surprise." Chu Feng smiled.
Too many things had happened during this period of time. Many families could not reunite with each other. Because of the changes in the world, roads in many places had been cut off.
Now that the family could reunite, they were very happy.
"Tell mom, what do you want to eat? I will make it for you." Wang Jing's smile never disappeared from her face since she saw Chu Feng come back.
"I want to eat … beef!" Chu Feng was still thinking about it. Finally, he was back in Shuntian. After leaving the two oxen, he no longer had to worry about taboo.
"It's not easy to buy, but don't worry. Ask your dad to find someone he knows." Wang Jing said.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded and was about to go out.
"Dad, Mom, there's no need. I've already bought them." Chu Feng quickly stopped them. He was worried that this would happen.
After the great changes, there was no problem with the normal supply of food. However, there were some foods that were slightly scarce, such as beef. Because the road leading to the northern plains had been cut off, it was difficult to transport them.
Chu Feng opened the fridge and took out a few large pieces of fresh meat.
"So many? How did you buy them?" The two of them were shocked, because this kind of material was too scarce. Even if one had money, they might not be able to buy it smoothly.
"I bought it on the road. I was worried that Shuntian would be short of supplies," Chu Feng smiled.
"There's beef on the road?"
"There was a mutated cow that went around hurting people. It was killed by a passing mutant and sold on the spot," Chu Feng explained.
It was indeed a cow that wreaked havoc everywhere. After the mutation, although it did not eat human flesh, it still hurt people in a frenzy. When Chu Feng found it on the road, it was in the middle of a frenzy, almost destroying a whole village.
Chu Feng did not want to tell the truth to his parents. He did not want them to worry about him.
This meal could be considered as a beef feast. There were braised beef, boiled beef, stir-fried beef, marinated beef …
"Son, what happened to you? Why do you suddenly like eating beef so much? Although it's a table full of dishes, they are all the same kind," Wang Jing said.
"You didn't get kicked by a mutated cow on the road, did you?" Chu Zhiyuan looked at his son suspiciously. He was thinking that Chu Feng might have suffered a loss because of the mutated cow.
"You're right. I've been bullied recently. That big black cow's hoof is about this big. Yes, it's about the size of a basin. It almost kicked me, and it even threatened me. So, I'll have to eat it back," Chu Feng said.
"What? You really had close contact with a mutated cow? Where did you get hurt? Let me have a look. "Wang Jing was very worried.
"I'm fine. How could I be bullied by a cow? It didn't kick me. Mom, your dishes are amazing. They are so delicious! "Chu Feng quickly changed the topic.
"Come, have a drink with me. There are so many dishes today." Chu Zhiyuan was very happy.
"Okay!" Chu Feng quickly went to pour some wine.
"I don't understand this world. Even a monkey has become a king. It's so lawless. It even established a sect in Mount Song. It's like a fairy tale." After drinking a few cups of wine, Chu Zhiyuan's face was red. He began to talk about the things that were reported in the news.
"That ape is not bad. At least it didn't destroy the city like that white snake. It stayed in the temple. It should be very kind," Wang Jing said.
"You don't understand. That old monkey is very cunning. I think it's very powerful. If it was provoked, it could turn the sky upside down," Chu Zhiyuan said.
"How is that possible? That ape looks very kind. It's not a vicious creature." Wang Jing argued. She felt that the ape of Mount Song's Great Woods Temple was not evil.
"What can you see? Monkeys can turn hostile at will. It's hard to guard against them," Chu Zhiyuan said.
"You are prejudiced. You just went to Mount Song when you were young and got scratched by a monkey. You still remember it!" Wang Jing said.
"You are wrong!" Chu Zhiyuan's face was red.
Chu Feng chuckled as he watched from the side.
"Look, even our son is laughing at you." Wang Jing was also happy.
…
The meal lasted for a long time. The whole family was very happy.
"Mom, dad, if you suddenly grow horns or spit fire in the future, will you think it's strange?"
The family was watching TV and eating fruits. Chu Feng asked casually.
"Wouldn't they become monsters?"
"Yes, I think the mutants nowadays are more suitable to be called monsters."
When Chu Feng heard this, he almost spat out the apple in his mouth.
After that, he did not mention the purple pine nuts. He didn't expect his parents to have such thoughts. He planned to go online and do some research on what would happen if there was a mutation.
For example, Zhou Quan's mutation was indeed a bit shocking. Other people could hide their characteristics, but he could not hide it at all. Every time he changed, it would be more and more shocking. It was as if he was afraid that others did not know about his "domineering" appearance.
"Oh, Feng, it's great that you are back." Wang Jing smiled while watching TV.
"What's wrong?" Chu Feng was puzzled.
"I have a good friend. Her niece is very beautiful. I saw her with my own eyes last time. She is even more beautiful than those celebrities. I especially asked my good friend to introduce her niece to you," Wang Jing said happily.
Chu Feng felt a headache coming on. He quickly ran back to his room.
"Feng, I tell you, you can't miss this opportunity. That girl is very elegant. I heard that she is classmates with the national goddess Jiang Luoshen, and she is not any worse than her."
Chu Feng wiped the sweat off his forehead. He did not expect to be arranged for a blind date on his first day back home.
He also knew that his parents married late and had children late. They only had him when they were almost thirty years old. They did not want him to follow in their footsteps.
After a while, Chu Feng calmed down and smiled. Perhaps this was the life of a normal person.
He was a little uncomfortable just now. But thinking about it carefully, didn't ordinary people's parents all behave like this?
What had he been through recently? Learning from the Yellow Cattle, fighting in the White Snake Ridge, killing Chen Hai, venturing into the wild mountains, fighting with mutated beasts.
Perhaps these were not normal.
"In such a short period of time, my perception has changed." Chu Feng sighed.
In the past, he did not believe in those myths and legends. But recently, he had encountered too many strange things. It was really subversive.
Chu Feng used his communicator to go online and read some reports. He wanted to know the various symptoms of eating the strange fruit.
In general, it varied from person to person. Different people behaved differently.
The night sky was bright and starry.
Chu Feng stood in front of the open window and practiced the special breathing technique day and night.
Tonight, he felt very special. It was different from the past.
Ever since his evolution, his constitution had improved greatly. His special breathing technique was gradually different.
Needless to say, he would be enveloped in a golden radiance in the morning.
Now, the night had also changed. In the past, the gentle radiance fell on his body. Now, there were wisps of black mist. It was very thin, but he could still sense it.
These strands of black mist, one after another, were incomparably cold as they entered his body.
"Eh? The effect is even better!" He was very surprised.
His body felt as if it was being washed. The coldness penetrated into his bones, but it was very effective. His flesh became more transparent and his organs were glowing. His constitution was evolving slightly!
After finishing the breathing technique, Chu Feng found that he was full of energy and incomparably comfortable. The speed of his evolution just now had increased!
He knew this was a good thing.
"Yellow Cattle, there's a big problem with the breathing technique!" Chu Feng immediately contacted Yellow Cattle.
Yellow Cattle was startled and asked him what had happened.
"When I was practicing the special breathing technique, a demon invaded. It descended from the sky with black mist and drilled into my body!"
"Moo!" Yellow Cattle's eyes widened. Its expression was too strange as if it had seen a ghost.
Afterward, it glared at Chu Feng with jealousy and hatred. It ground its teeth and almost spat at him. Apparently, it was very indignant.
"Was it a demon invasion? Or did I break through and surpass you by a large margin?" Chu Feng asked with a mischievous smile.
"Invasion my ass!" Yellow Cattle angrily typed these words.
Afterward, it ignored Chu Feng.
Chu Feng tried to contact it, but Yellow Cattle decisively turned off the communicator and left him there.
