(Monthly ticket extra update!)_7 “But I’m still very optimistic about Earth’s future.
Give Earthlings another one or two hundred years, when their population increases, a quantitative change will definitely lead to a qualitative change, and they’ll easily step into the industrial era.”
Lin Xian was listening to Wei Shengjin’s assessments of history, humanity, and civilization, feeling that they were quite insightful:
“You seem to know a lot… What did you do on Mars?”
“Heh, before retirement, I was a teacher at a university.”
“Oh wow, impressive!”
“Then, should I call you Professor Wei in the future, or…?”
“Ay, I wasn’t a professor, just an ordinary teacher; you can just call me by my name.”
“Then I’ll call you Teacher Wei!” Lin Xian was still trying.
“Ah, whatever you like.”
While speaking, Wei Shengjin stood up and patted the dirt off his clothes:
“Then shall we continue, Lin Xian?
I speculate this area should have other Hafnium Alloy Safes we can find.
Let’s start by scanning and detecting to the east from here!”
Full of energy, Wei Shengjin led Lin Xian, and they continued on their archaeological journey.
Wei Shengjin operated the metal detector, while Lin Xian carried the bag and tools for him.
The two stopped in their tracks, looking up at the jungle obscured by lush foliage ahead.
There seemed to be sounds of pursuit and shouting.
At first, Lin Xian thought they might be wild animals, but listening closely, it seemed to be people!
Finally, they could encounter living people again, and most likely they were local Earth people!
Lin Xian was excited.
Wei Shengjin was a man who had gone through “historical education” and “brainwashing.” Lin Xian didn’t quite trust what he said.
He was more eager to hear what the local Earth people had to say.
Just as he was about to move closer.
Wei Shengjin quickly pulled Lin Xian behind a tree and made a hushing gesture with his finger to his lips:
Earth is very chaotic now, especially near the East Sea.
It’s quite remote here with no big cities around, just villages…
Many locals are difficult to deal with; it’s wiser to hide first.”
In the midst of talking.
The sounds of pursuit and cursing from the other side of the jungle grew closer.
Lin Xian and Wei Shengjin hid behind a tree, peering out.
A graceful black figure leapt out from the foliage onto an open space, pulled out a gleaming black machete from her waist, and positioned herself firmly on the ground.
Lin Xian took a deep breath, his eyes wide open…
Brows furrowed and fierce at that moment,
A distinguishing mole under the left eye,
Familiar face, familiar figure, familiar demeanor!
He was just about to shout out—
A crude bellow came from a fierce man with a meaty face, leading three underlings of varying height, build, and weight.
They leaped out of the bushes, swinging their clubs:
In the blink of an eye, the situation turned into chaos, with four against one, where the long outreached the short, especially the tall and skinny lackey wielding a wooden Red Tassel Spear, prodding from afar, making it hard to dodge the concealed strikes and difficult to fight off.
Lin Xian couldn’t hold back anymore and leaped out from behind the tree.
They were all old acquaintances, all on the same side, what was the point of fighting:
“Stop, stop, stop, stop!”
Lin Xian emerged from behind the tree, running towards the melee:
Stop fighting all of you!”
No one paid him any mind.
Ah Zhuang and San Pang were swinging their short knives at thin air, Er Zhuzi was jabbing his long spear into nothingness, and Big Face Cat was at the outskirts, swinging his club for a sonic attack.
CC was already exhausted, just dodging the aimless assaults of the four, with no chance to even look in Lin Xian’s direction.
“I said to stop fighting, just hold off for a moment!”
Lin Xian had already run up to Big Face Cat and started pounding on his shoulder:
“Brother Lian, do me a favor!
A cold strike of a club came down overhead; Lin Xian dodged to the side.
Big Face Cat’s face bunched up with its meaty layers:
“Who the hell are you?
Who do you think you are?”
Upon hearing this, the three underlings also stopped and turned to look towards their boss.
CC finally looked up in this direction, her eyes widening:
