Don’t panic when the apocalypse comes, stock up on food first and then guns

Chenjiacun.

Because Chenjia Village’s wine has been selling well recently, every household in the village is busy brewing rice wine.

The toothless Third Uncle lay in front of the wine jar, took off his head, held it in his hand, and hung it above the wine jar. White juice dripped from the broken neck.

"Hehehe, drink more, drink more, hehehe..."

Third Uncle grinned, his yellow teeth looking even yellower under the light.

Seeing that it was almost done, Third Uncle put the head back on the neck, twisted it left and right twice, and it only took a blink of an eye.

"Plop!" a sound.

The water in the wine jar splashed, as if something had hit it.

He looked down and saw a brown peach floating in the thick white wine.

The hairy peach slowly raised its head.

"Hey! You old thing, I knew you were a monster!"

The man with a hairy face stood up from the wine jar and hit his third uncle's head off with a stick.

Third Uncle’s head flew out of the door and rolled several times on the ground, screaming as he rolled.

"That lunatic is back again!"

"Everyone hide quickly!!!"

"Ahhhhh!!!"

As Third Uncle screamed, the sound of doors slamming quickly rang out all over the village.

Jiang You has arrived at the ancestral hall.

When she pushed open the door, she saw Chen Meiyu sitting quietly on the chair, and the little monster with various branch-like things growing on its back was lying quietly on her knees, like a well-behaved kitten.

When it saw Jiang You, its eyes lit up and it let out a cry of surprise.

"Li——"

"Li——"

Chen Meiyu patted the little monster's head and said, "Okay, be quiet. Go and watch over An Nan. Don't let him wake up."

"Li——"

The little monster looked at Jiang You again, and there was light in his green eyes, like stars.

It was very ugly, like a pangolin covered with tree stumps, and its skin was a strange white, which made it look eerie no matter how you looked at it.

But such an ugly monster had the clearest and most beautiful blue-green eyes Jiang You had ever seen, and it seemed as if there was a sea of ​​stars hidden in those eyes.

She couldn't help but think of the strange tree's words.

[Monsters in the abyss don’t have red eyes…]

The little monster crouched slowly and disappeared behind the door curtain.

Jiang You found a chair to the right of Chen Meiyu and sat down, "I've been to the abyss."

"I know. You have a strong scent from the Abyss."

Jiang You, "Aren't you going to ask me why I suddenly came back from the abyss?"

"Oh why?"

Chen Meiyu calmly asked according to Jiang You's intention. Her voice was very gentle, like the river flowing slowly across the grassland, warm and cool.

"I want to go to the Land of Origin. You should know where that is, right? I have seen a tree, and it said that what is in my body comes from there..."

In fact, the strange tree never said that the fire in Jiang You's body came from the place of origin. It just told her that in the abyss, this thing is called Mother Earth.

But Jiang You has never completely trusted anyone, let alone a tree.

She is a suspicious person.

Asking this is a test.

Sure enough, Chen Meiyu did not refute.

Instead, he smiled slowly, "I didn't expect you to see the tree so soon... But you can't find the origin."

"Yes, because I need a monster to lead the way. Only monsters can find the way home."

"Then why don't you go find that guy with red eyes? It looks like you have a good relationship."

"The one with the red eyes isn't a monster, is it?"

Jiang You tilted his head and said with a smile, "If he could enter the Origin Land, he wouldn't lend me a hand."

Hearing this, Chen Meiyu looked at her gently, "Since you know he wants to use you to enter the Origin Land, why do you continue? If you open the door, the wolf will take the opportunity to go in."

"Yeah, the wolf is always waiting outside."

Jiang You leaned back in the chair, placed one hand casually on the armrest, and tapped the armrest lightly with his index finger, making a very slight tapping sound, with a very relaxed posture.

"So, this is why you haven't dared to go home?"

Her ink-black eyes stared lazily at Chen Meiyu, with a faint smile at the corner of her mouth.

"You are afraid that the wolf will break into your house the moment you open the door. In order to avoid giving it this opportunity, you have not dared to go home for so many years."

Chen Meiyu, "Hahahaha, Jiang You, sometimes your guesses are indeed bold and interesting, but...how do you know that I can't go back, not that I don't want to go back?"

Jiang You, "Yeah, so I'm just guessing."

"A drop of contaminated water should not return to the cup." Chen Meiyu took a deep look at the woman sitting on her right.

"I have been to this land before, and I have received the incense and faith of humans. Monsters that have been tainted by the power of faith cannot return to their birthplace. A drop of ink in a cup will only pollute a pool of clear water."

"Then why don't you break the quilt and let the water flow out?" Jiang You said, "It's better to be contaminated than to stay in the cup and continue to evaporate."

Hearing this, Chen Meiyu, who had been very calm, looked at Jiang You in surprise. She was surprised at Jiang You's thoughts.

No one had ever told her that it was okay to break the cup from this angle.

Everyone will say that if the ink is farther away, the water in the cup will not be contaminated.

But no one said to break the cup and pour out the water.
