It was already nine o 'clock at night.
The G8977 high-speed train had just entered a city.
Yue Heng sat by the window, admiring the night view through the safety glass.
This was his second time taking the high-speed train from Taijiang to Kun City.
The final destination was the same.
This time, Yue Heng's main purpose was to collect mutants and complete the deal with the Zerg Queen as soon as possible.
The mutants that Yue Heng obtained previously all came from Mount Guan Yun.
The problem was that no matter how luxuriant a sheep's hair was, it could not withstand repeated plucking.
Yue Heng deliberately went there once before, but he did not get anything.
So he decisively gave up the idea of saving time and effort and went to Southwest Yunnan thousands of miles away.
Five Peaks Mountain!
Yue Heng's Xing Fu "Cosmic Light" came from Five Peaks Mountain.
He intercepted Xiao Zhen, the founder of the Truth Society in his previous life, and directly killed this future big boss.
To a great extent, it changed the future.
But Yue Heng believed that some things should not change.
For example, after Xiao Zhen took away the Xing Fu in his previous life, the Five Peaks Mountain area still gave birth to an astral gate.
And this astral gate led to an extremely large foreign world.
It was through the exploration and development of this super-large astral world that China obtained a huge amount of resources and wealth and cultivated batches of elite superhumans.
For the future development of China, it played a very important role!
Therefore, hundreds of years after the formation of the astral gate, the Five Peaks Mountain area had always been the holy land of superhumans in China.
The quota to enter the astral world was very precious!
In his previous life, when Yue Heng was reborn, Earth, as the planet of origin of mankind, had been listed as a protected forbidden area.
And the Five Peaks Mountain astral world had long since ceased to exist.
He only saw relevant records in some materials.
Today, Yue Heng had the opportunity to witness the birth of this legendary gate with his own eyes.
Even if it was not for the mutants, he still wanted to go back and take a look.
The high-speed train stopped at the station for five minutes.
Then it continued on its way.
Yue Heng withdrew his gaze, picked up the phone on the small table, and opened the WeChat group.
He played with the Thousand Machine Pen.
At the same time, he was lurking in the [Cultivation Chat Group] to spy on the screen.
When Yue Heng first joined the group, there were more than 500 members.
Now, it had doubled!
However, Yue Heng believed that this kind of growth could not be maintained.
Because the people in the group were basically people who accidentally came into contact with Xing Fu and awakened their superpowers naturally.
Today, more than 90% of the Star's Family members that had not dissipated were controlled by state departments, corporations, wealthy families, and other major forces. A very small number were collected by some research institutions and private individuals.
Normal people wouldn't be able to come into contact with them, so naturally, there wouldn't be any new 'wild' espers.
Of course, the number of naturally awakened ones in China was definitely far more than these people in the group.
A bunch of idiots had been executed.
Some of them were also locked up in prison.
Many people chose to keep a low profile and not expose their abilities easily.
Like Yue Heng, the superhumans who had registered with the Administration of Heterogeneity were no longer as silly as before. Instead, they chatted more normally.
It was probably because everyone had gotten used to their new identities that they were no longer as cautious.
Yue Heng basically didn't talk in the [Cultivation Chat Group].
However, he occasionally found some useful information while watching the group chat.
Just as he was looking through the chat history.
Suddenly, he noticed something strange.
Yue Heng looked up and saw a three or four-year-old girl lying on the back of the seat in front of him. She was staring intently at the Thousand Machine Pen that was spinning rapidly in his hand.
She had a round face, round eyes, and two braids that pointed to the sky. She looked very cute.
Yue Heng smiled slightly.
He bought a first-class ticket. The passengers in the front row were a young couple with a child.
The couple was probably asleep by now.
The little girl probably felt bored and stood in the middle watching him play with the pen.
"Big brother."
The little girl was quite bold. She said in a childish voice, "You're really good at spinning the pen!"
Yue Heng was surprised. "You know how to spin the pen too?"
"Yes."
The little girl nodded vigorously. "Brother Congcong taught me before, but I couldn't learn it no matter how hard I tried. You're better than him."
She had a look of admiration on her face.
Yue Heng laughed.
He rummaged through his backpack and took out a chocolate bar for the little girl.
The little girl shook her head and said, "My mom said that I can't eat food from strangers."
Yue Heng thought for a moment. "My name is Yue Heng. What's your name?"
The little girl replied, "My name is Annie. An as in quiet and Ni as in minnie. Daddy calls me little baby."
"So it's baby Annie."
Yue Heng smiled and said, "Now that we know each other, we're not strangers, right?"
He handed over the chocolate bar wrapped in red and green wrapping paper again.
"Yes, thank you, big brother."
Annie was very polite. "I've eaten this brand of chocolate before. It's delicious."
She happily took it.
Looking at the cute little girl in front of him, Yue Heng couldn't help but think of the little girl in front of him.
They were both so obedient and sensible.
The high-speed train went all the way south, but his heart flew back to his home.
It was already five in the morning when he arrived at Kun City.
Because of his previous experience.
So Yue Heng was familiar with the road this time and arrived at the small town near Wufeng Mountain before noon.
He called a three-wheeled vehicle on the side of the road.
"Qian Ao Village?"
The driver of the three-wheeled vehicle was very surprised when he heard Yue Heng say where he was going. "What are you going there for?"
"There's no one in Qian Ao Village anymore. The road to the mountain is also blocked. It's said that there are first-class protected animals in the mountain."
There's no one?
Yue Heng couldn't help but think of the old couple he saw last time who stayed in the mountain village.
He took out a hundred-yuan bill. "Keep the change."
Instead of making up excuses and wasting his saliva to negotiate with the other party, it's better to take out an invincible magic weapon and easily knock him down.
The driver of the three-wheeled vehicle was instantly killed. "Get on!"
The three-wheeled vehicle with black smoke chugged all the way and took Yue Heng to the entrance of the mountain.
He saw a few big stones piled up in the middle of the path, blocking the entire path.
There was also a warning sign erected next to it.
"I didn't lie to you."
The driver of the three-wheeled vehicle kindly reminded him. "You can't go inside, so don't run in. I heard that there's a wolf disaster and it's very dangerous."
Yue Heng jumped down from the back seat. "Thank you."
Seeing Yue Heng being so stubborn, the driver could only shake his head helplessly.
Young people don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!
After the other party drove the three-wheeled vehicle away, Yue Heng crossed the blockade in front of him and walked along the path full of vines towards Qian Ao Village where he once stayed for a night.
There were mountains all around.
Although there was still a long time before it was dark, it was very quiet here.
It was so quiet that it made people feel a sense of fear.
Yue Heng carried his backpack and held Xuan Jie Heng in his hand. He calmly stepped on the abandoned mountain path.
Ten minutes later, Qian Ao Village appeared in his sight.
When Yue Heng first came here half a year ago, although the small mountain village was almost abandoned, the houses were scattered at the foot of the mountain in picturesque disorder. At least he could still see the appearance of a village.
Now the forces of nature had almost completely swallowed it. Most of the village houses were covered by vines and long grass.
Some houses had already decayed and collapsed. From afar, it looked like a pile of tombs.
When Yue Heng stepped into the mountain village, he startled a few old crows that were looking for food.
They cawed and flew away.
Following his memory, Yue Heng found the house where he stayed last time.
The house was still intact, but there was a bronze lock on the door. The open space in front of the door was also covered with weeds.
It was obvious that no one had lived there for a long time.
Yue Heng estimated that the kind and simple old couple should have moved away long ago.
He hoped that they could live happily in their new home.
There were many empty houses around.
But Yue Heng decided to stay in this house and explore the Five Peaks Mountain area.
This time, he revisited the old place.
He planned to hunt a few more mutated beasts until he collected all five mutant seeds.
As for whether this goal could be achieved, it depended on luck.
Unlocking the door, Yue Heng entered the village house.
Most of the furniture inside was still there and had not been moved away. There was a thick layer of dust on it.
The air was filled with a choking musty smell.
Considering that he might have to stay here for a few days, Yue Heng opened the window for ventilation.
Then, he simply cleaned up the place.
He felt much more comfortable.
"Awoo ~"
Suddenly, a long howl of a wolf could be heard from afar.
Yue Heng narrowed his eyes.
Was this a welcome?
