The era of the national system

Hearing this, Wen Xu's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned his head to look over.

Behind him is an old man in the middle of his life. From the perspective of people on earth, he is probably in his 60s.But Wen Xu knew that he was definitely more than this age.

When he connected to the Starfield Network before, he consulted a lot of information, and he naturally knew that the lifespan of human beings is extremely long today, which is nearly ten times that of the Earth era.

Because of the existence of the system, most people can live to be five hundred years old, and when they are five hundred years old, everyone will face a hurdle—whether they can activate their talents.

Talent is equivalent to the second specialization, but talent is much stronger than specialization. According to the historical records of the empire, almost all the people who activated their talents have obtained very excellent abilities, and they have never produced even a single waste.

Moreover, while gaining talent, he also gained a new life, and his lifespan would be increased by another five hundred years, until he was a thousand years old.

It's just that the activation of talent is not as 90.00% as that of specialization. Nearly [-]% of human beings cannot awaken their talent after the age of [-], and have to age and die.

Although Wen Xu was not sure about the age of the old man in front of him, one thing was certain, the other party was an elder.

"Senior, to tell you the truth, my specialization is useless, and I can't accept almost all tasks..."

"It doesn't matter," the old man smiled, "as long as you can bear hardships and not be afraid of getting dirty."

Wen Xu was really curious, but then he thought of something else, and hurriedly said: "Senior, although I am short of money, I am still very decent, and I don't do illegal and criminal things!"

Unexpectedly, he would come here, the old man couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, it's a regular job. I originally wanted to post tasks in the employment area, but I saw you looking for jobs everywhere." He smiled meaningfully , "You are a resilient person, I like it very much, that's why I came to you directly, if you are worried, I can issue a task for someone in the employment area, and you can accept it directly when the time comes."

Wen Xu is cautious, he wants to make money to support his son, so he must not be willful. Although he feels good about this old man, he will not blindly trust someone he has only met once.

Seeing that he was silent, the old man was not angry, he just smiled and said: "Young man like a ghost."

Wen Xu followed with a smile, his skin was thick to a certain extent.

Sure enough, the old man went to the employment area to post the task, and he specifically selected that he didn't need any specialization, entered his ID, and chose someone to accept it.

When the task was refreshed, Wen Xu saw it for the first time. After taking a look, he rolled his eyes with a smile. This reward is really good!

For a week of work, the daily salary is [-] iron spars. After a week, if the evaluation is high, you can get an additional [-] iron spars.

In this way, it is enough for my son to eat fish happily!

Wen Xu quickly accepted the task, and then followed the old man named Wang Yuzong onto the speeding car.

Fat Du had been hiding in his father's clothes before, but now he became restless, showing his head, and let out a "goo chirp".

Wen Xu took him out, poked his stomach, and asked, "Are you hungry?"

"Google!"

"Wait... I'll find fish for you when I get there!"

Fat Du had a great impression of the yellow stickleback fish. When he heard that there was a fish, he immediately jumped up happily, and flew to Wen Xu's face, bah...he kissed it.

It was originally a loving kiss from his son, but now his son is sharp-mouthed, so Wen Xu has a tragedy...

Covering his mouth, Wen Xu screamed in pain.

Wang Yuzong, who was sitting in front, looked back and said with a smile, "You little pet is so cute."

It was an ordinary sentence, but it made Wen Xu frown.

"He's not a pet," Wen Xu's voice was rarely serious, "He's my son!"

Wang Yuzong frowned slightly.

The originally good atmosphere suddenly became a little cold.

After Wen Xu said this, he also calmed down. Wang Yuzong didn't have any malicious intentions, and he didn't say anything excessive. Fat Du's current state is indeed more like a pet than his son, but Wen Xu himself feels uncomfortable.

But he couldn't explain it to others. After checking the star domain network, Wen Xu also knew that his and his son's childhood forms were a bit weird. There are no animal forms.

After searching the Internet for a long time, there is no relevant explanation. Wen Xu's parents must know the truth, but now they...

Sighing, Wen Xu withdrew his thoughts, and his tone was much gentler: "Senior, this little guy is very important to me. He is my family. I make money to support him, and I just want to watch him grow up. He..." Wen Xu paused, then said softly, "It's more important than my own life."

Wang Yuzong was stunned. Looking at Wen Xu like this, his heart suddenly moved. He was also a father. When his only son passed away, his wife was like this for a long time. he……

When people lose something important, they can't help but look for emotional sustenance. Wang Yuzong doesn't know what happened to Wen Xu, but now he can feel some of his feelings.

Wang Yuzong's heart softened, and he said softly: "I was reckless."

Wen Xu didn't know that Wang and Zong had misunderstood, but hearing what the other party said, he already felt the other party's respect for him.He couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, and after he bent his eyes again, the atmosphere in the car also eased.

It took half an hour for the flying car to reach the destination. Although Wen Xu was mentally prepared, he was still a little surprised by the sight in front of him.

It's really hard enough... The whole frosty snowfield, where you can see is all snow, where it's not snow is ice, and it's thanks to Wen Xu that he put on the thermal clothing and protective glasses early, otherwise he would really have to Frozen into ice cubes.

But even so, Wen Xu felt a burst of cold air rushing into the neckline, which was so sour and indescribable.

Both Wen Xu and Wang Yuzong were shaking from the cold, but a certain little guy was happy. He jumped out of Wen Xu's clothes, stretched out his little wings, and jumped out in an extremely graceful posture.

Wen Xu was startled, and just about to reach out to grab him, Fatty slammed and fell into the snowdrift.

Dad's heart was about to jump out, but the little ball of hair broke through the snow suddenly, and the gray fluff was covered with white snow, turning into a round little snowball.

It took Wen Xu a long time to realize that his son is a little penguin, and penguins are really not afraid of the cold...

Then, Wen Xu began to experience another kind of sourness.The son is not afraid of the cold, he likes snow and his father very much, after he rolls into a small snow ball, he still wants to get into his father's arms, so...Wen Xu felt the sweetness of the heart...

Wang Yuzong wanted to let them adapt to the climate, so he was not in a hurry to start work. When Fatty fell asleep after playing tired, Wen Xu came over on his own initiative.

Wang Yuzong said: "Don't worry, you have been tossing all morning, and now there are only a few hours left. Go and rest first, and start tomorrow."

Wen Xu shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'll learn what to do first this afternoon, so I won't have to waste time tomorrow morning."

After Wen Xu said this, Wang Yuzong didn't refuse any more, so he began to teach him what to do.

Although he knew that this job was hard and tiring, Wen Xu thought he was physically fit, so he didn't take it too seriously. When he really started doing it, he realized that it was really not an easy job.

The ice and snow here are very deep, so deep that it surprised Wen Xu. The deepest place is close to 150 centimeters.

And what Wen Xu has to do is to dig holes here. The first [-] centimeters is to use a small machine to dig snow, but below [-] centimeters, it can only be done by hand. You must slowly use the oldest shovel to dig. .

As for why, Wang Yuzong didn't hide it, and explained to him in detail that there is a very strange soil under the ice and snow, which is very fragile and delicate, and it is useless to others, but to Wang Yuzong. It is of great use.

It's just that this kind of soil is unusual. Although it is a mineral, it is constantly moving. If you dig it with a machine, it is impossible to find it. It is not prepared, find it.

After Wen Xu understood it, he began to operate formally. This job sounds easy, but it is not easy to do.

The snow on the top is very soft, even without a machine, Wen Xu can easily remove it with his physical strength. On the contrary, the old snow below has become unbelievably hard due to continuous accumulation and melting.

Although the shovel Wang Yuzong gave him was made of a special material and was very sharp, if he didn't put in a lot of effort, he wouldn't be able to loosen the ice.

Not to mention the whole process of searching for the erratic soil with full attention. According to Wang Yuzong's description, the soil is grayish white. If you don't pay attention, it may be shoveled off together as an ice layer.

And this is the weak point of the soil. If the ice layer is forcibly stripped off, it will quickly weather and disappear without a trace. It is really tricky.

Regardless of Wang Yuzong's age, but because of his many years of penance, he has great strength, and it seems quite easy to dig.

Wen Xu followed behind him, and under his guidance, he kept groping how to use force and what to pay attention to. In just one hour, Wen Xu was already a little out of breath. Wang Yuzong laughed at him: "Young man, your body Still need to practice more."

Wen Xu was a little unconvinced at first, but now he is really convinced, he let out a sigh of relief: "Uncle Wang, please give me more advice in the future!"

Looking at him, Wang Yuzong liked him a little more. He was neither arrogant nor impetuous, neither giving up nor discouraged. He had the drive of a young man, but also cautious and down-to-earth. He was really a good boy.

He was lost in thought, but Wen Xu took a deep breath: "Uncle Wang! Come and see, is this the kind of soil?"

Wang Yuzong was taken aback, he hadn't found it for half a month, how lucky is he today?

He hurried forward to take a look, and his eyes lit up immediately after seeing the gray in the depths of the snow pit.

Really are!

Wang Yuzong was a little excited. He quickly took out a seed and planted it carefully. Then he took out the water bottle and did not forget to fertilize it after watering it...

Wen Xu watched from the side, and couldn't help laughing, because Wang and Zong took things directly from their backpacks, so it looked like they were juggling. LOL.

Until Wang and Zong finished their work, Wen Xu was full of smiles, but the next moment he was a little dazed, because there was a sudden beep in his head.

[Congratulations, the implantation technique has been successfully learned. 】
