Above the Ruins [End Times]

Sensing Leng Mo's gaze, the boy nodded slightly.Leng Mo turned his face back and continued to look at this place.Get a panoramic view of all layouts.

Life is stable and peaceful, and the village is orderly and peaceful.There is nothing wrong with that.Is not it?This tranquility is something that cannot be found in many places!

However, this peace gave Leng Mo a sense of discomfort at this time, which was strange, really strange.

Sima invited Leng and Mo to come here with the reason of "come to our ceremony", and the time of this ceremony is the next day.But now, the village is so peaceful that it is completely impossible to tell that this is the place where the ceremony will be held the next day—after just dozens of hours.

Such a situation made Leng Mo raise his vigilance unconsciously.

"Sister Sima!" The children who were playing were holding their toys in their hands, and the skull of an unknown mutant animal threw itself into the short-haired girl's arms.The little boy had an excited smile on his face, his watery eyes secretly looked at Lengmo and Youwei through Sima's arms, then he closed his gaze and raised his little head, "Sister Sima, sister Sima! Those two Is this a guest who came to our festival this year?"

For the little boy who saw through his identity as an outsider at a glance, Leng Mo didn't seem too surprised. They came out in a hurry and didn't prepare other clothes. They were wearing the uniform of the supernatural power institute. The people are not wearing ordinary, common clothes of ordinary people. Almost everyone I see is wearing a loose and strict clothing.

Even though the clothes had been wandering around for many years, and I had seen many strange clothes in the logistics department of the power institute, I had never seen them before, so naturally I had no way of knowing what they were.It is precisely because of this difference that the difference between outsiders and the aborigines in this village is obvious. Even a three-year-old child can easily distinguish the difference between the two.

Although he wondered whether it was convenient to wear such loose and long clothes for hunting, after all, this was someone else's business. Speaking of which, Sima's clothes were common combat clothes.Maybe that's the way it is, it's not like they don't know how to change clothes.Leng Mo secretly laughed, but just shook his head unobtrusively, and stopped thinking about it.

"That's right, it's my elder sister Sima's guest, a guest at our ceremony." Sima looked back at the two of them.Youwei didn't intend to talk to the girl, but just looked at Lengmo without blinking, and only after the young man nodded slightly, Sima turned his head and smiled.

The little boy holding the skull grinned open his small mouth with a few missing teeth, and asked, "Sister Sima, can we invite guests to play?"

"No way." Sima shaved the little boy's nose and shook his head, "Sister Sima is going to take the guests to see the priest, so let's play with my friends first."

The little boy pursed his mouth when he heard the words. Although the child looked reluctant, he was still obedient.He nodded, "Then, sister Sima wants to come and play together during the ceremony!"

"it is good."

Sima sent the little boy away, and when she saw the boy kicking his skull as a ball, she turned around and said, "I'm laughing. These children rarely see outsiders, so they are very excited."

Ling Mo nodded in understanding.Youwei didn't speak.

Sima led Leng Mo and the two of them walked the widest road here, which could even be called a "street", and soon reached the end of this street, the house in front of this small village.

The short-haired girl took the lead and knocked rhythmically on the door of this room: "Master Priest, Sir Priest, are you there? It's me, Sima, I brought the guests back."

A soft voice came from the other side of the door, giving an affirmative answer, so Sima pushed the door and entered with Leng Mo and You Wei.

What appeared in front of me was an extremely simple room with a table, a chair, and a bed, and a man was sitting by the table, and this man was using a mutated bird feather pen to draw some strange symbols on a piece of animal skin in his hand.There are many mutated animal skins piled up under his feet.Even though Sima brought two people in, the man didn't stop his movements.

Sima didn't dare to make eye contact with You Wei, she smiled apologetically at Leng Mo, but Len Mo didn't bother with her, pulled You Wei, and quietly watched the man in the white robe finish his work. things.

This one is probably the Lord Priest that Sima mentioned, and he has an aura that no one can hate.

It didn't take long before the last stroke was made. The man let out a long sigh of relief, put down the pen and the animal skin, and looked up at Leng Mo and the other two.The light-colored eyes carried a warmth that was soft and incapable of hostility. The priest who looked very friendly smiled: "I'm sorry to keep the guests waiting." He looked at a small door in the room, " Aya, please."

There was a female answering voice from the compartment, and then the four people present heard the small sound of gears snapping together, and several chairs were lifted out of nowhere on the ground.

Youwei squinted his eyes inexplicably, and glanced at the small door in the house as if absent from the corner of his eye.

Leng Mo's pupils shrank, and he pursed his lips and looked at the priest. The priest didn't say much, he beckoned the three of them to sit down, and then, a small table rose from the chair, Sima wanted to pick it up The pot on the table was stopped by the man, and he stretched out his white and slender hand, which seemed to have no experience in combat, to pick up the slightly rough pot on the table, and the liquid poured from it was contained in a kind of Among the mutant plant leaves that naturally curl into a bowl shape.Even Sima had a bowl in front of him.

Leng Mo looked at the bright red liquid in the leaf bowl, and smelled the faint smell of blood from his nose, his face became more and more stiff.

"Our place is not good enough to treat our guests to drink clean water. I can't allow guests to drink unclean water." The flaxen-haired man always had a gentle smile on his face, and he rolled up his sleeves as a gesture of invitation , "I hope that the guests will not dislike these blessed blood of mutant beasts."

Ling Mo didn't touch the bowl of blood, and You Wei didn't intend to move either.

Blessed mutant beast blood?Who doesn't know that the mutant beast is full of toxins, and it can't be eaten without special treatment?And that kind of reason that looks like nonsense, how can it win people's trust!

Sima looked at the three people who were almost at a stalemate. She picked up the leaf bowl in front of her, gulped it down, and finally boldly wiped away the blood that flowed to her chin due to the rush of drinking.

"My lord priest, please don't make such a joke, even if you just say it, it will be fine!" The girl looked at the two of them with a smile, "Actually, this is about the blessed blood..."

【47.Yesterday】

"The sky is a beautiful blue like gemstones, the plants are green full of vitality, and their appearance is normal, and there is no danger of mess. The sea water is clear rather than colorful. Lush trees, black thick and fertile land, fresh The air, and even the animals are not as vicious as they are now. Humans don’t have to worry about dying at any time.”

"Afterwards, although the air gradually became turbid, the sky was covered with light gray, the trees were cut down, and the high-rise steel buildings were erected, it was still much better than our civilization. Almost everyone had enough food and warm clothes; knowledge Books and books are still things that everyone can have; babies are not food, but parents’ treasures; children are not burdens, but gifts to the world. Even if there are many bad things, but for us—— "

"It's a beautiful place like a dream."

"It's a very desirable life, isn't it? And our family is the one that guards everything left by those civilizations. You may feel that I am deceiving you when I say it."

Leng Mo looked at You Wei subconsciously, and saw the child holding the leaf bowl and sipping the refilled liquid, as if he didn't respond to anything outside.Helpless, Leng Mo had no choice but to look at the opposite priest again.This young man who looked not much older than Leng Mo seemed to have noticed Leng Mo's actions long ago, and was looking at him with a smile.

"...So?" Leng Mo didn't ask. It's meaningless to say anything at this time. If you want to explain, the other party will naturally explain.

The task given by the system is to explore the relics of the first civilization. It may be said that it is easy to find nowhere to find it. After some conversations, Leng Mo knew that the priest's name was "Deng". At the same time, he also confirmed that The thing he said needs to be protected is exactly what they are looking for, and they originally just wanted to participate in a festival in this place and resupply.

"So...?" The priest named Deng tilted his head slightly, and a few strands of flaxen hair fell down to cover his eyes and his expression, "Maybe... no, it's nothing."

"..." Deng didn't say anything, and Leng Mo didn't ask. He just looked at the other party with his dark eyes. The relics of the First Civilization that are guarded. Nothing will be destroyed, and the reward will be clean water."

There are twists and turns, and after so many years, Lingmo still doesn't understand, and he doesn't want to understand, and in this world, being straightforward is always faster than playing tricks.This is just a tentative deal.All right, no, they just sneaked in directly.

Deng was stunned when he heard Leng Mo's words.
