Immortality begins by swallowing the stars

Chapter 9
Ningzhou City, [-] kilometers away from Heyun City, still has a population of nearly [-] million even after the RR virus ravaged it.

However, at this moment, almost the entire population has been concentrated in a few urban areas, and countless simple mobile houses and tents have been set up to house the unprecedentedly dense population.

But there are still people who can live in detached villa areas.

In one of the three-story single-family villas, a middle-aged man with slicked-back hair wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked into the living room.

"dad."

"Big brother."

The middle-aged man's name is Lin Fanghong. He belongs to a famous family in Ningzhou. He is a direct descendant of the Lin family and the second son of the contemporary head of the Lin family.

The slender old man sitting on the sofa and the middle-aged man with a Chinese character face next to him are his father, Lin Tairong, the head of the Lin family, and his eldest brother Lin Fangyuan.

The solemn expressions on the faces of his father and eldest brother made Lin Fanghong a little uneasy.

Lin Fangyuan, who had a Chinese character face, forced out a smile: "Second brother, this morning the military sent a new list of extraordinary people. Yesterday, Heyun City released a new extraordinary person who joined the military. He is a genetic warrior. There is one High-level strength."

Lin Fanghong was a little confused: "This... a newly emerged genetic warrior, does it have anything to do with our Lin family? Is it an old family member of ours?"

Mr. Lin, who had a delicate appearance, coughed lightly and said, "The name of that genetic warrior is Lu Jing."

Lin Fanghong's face turned bitter: "Dad, don't keep mentioning these old sesame seeds and rotten millet things. I've broken up with that woman a long time ago. I haven't seen her child since she was born, let alone... a genetic warrior?!"

Lin Fanghong was a little confused, and his expression gradually turned into unbelievable surprise.

"How is that possible? That little brat..."

Mr. Lin snorted softly: "I checked his general information and I can confirm that it is Lin Jing!"

Lin Jing?

When these words came out, even Lin Fangyuan was a little surprised. The old man had always pretended that the absurd results of his second brother's youth did not exist. At this moment, he could actually say the two words Lin Jing. Of course, he has a first-level high-level gene. Warriors do have this weight.

Lin Fanghong gradually turned from surprise to excitement: "Dad, in this case, that little cub...Xiao Jing can return to our home?"

Mr. Lin glanced at his useless son, nodded slightly, and said with a loving look on his face: "After all, he is the flesh and blood of our Lin family. His mother also died of illness a long time ago. At this time, your wife and the Wang family should be able to understand that they recognize their ancestors and return to their clan. Isn't that right?" Do you want the flesh and blood of my Lin family to live outside and suffer?"

The old man's high-sounding words made Lin Fanghong a little disgusted, but then he felt a little sad because of the news that the woman died of illness. However, he had almost forgotten the appearance of the woman, and he was only a little sad.

What followed was an excitement that filled Lin Fanghong's heart. Logically speaking, it was normal for a child of a big family like the Lin family to have an illegitimate child, but who made the old man decide that he and another family would be more prosperous than the Lin family? The marriage between the aristocratic and royal families.

Unexpectedly, before they got engaged, Lin Fanghong and his girlfriend at the time accidentally gave birth to a child. This was naturally not allowed by the Wang family, and also not tolerated by Mr. Lin, the head of the family.

In order to avoid being known by the Wang family, they had just pretended that the woman and the child did not exist for the past 20 years. The Lin family had a great business and had no shortage of one or two heirs. Fortunately, the woman was sensible and had a stubborn temper, so she forced herself to give birth to the child and went away alone. other cities.

Of course, what excited Lin Fanghong at this time was not the recognition of father and son. He had no shortage of sons, so how much affection he could have for a son he had never met before. Instead, he was excited about the benefits that the lost and recovered son could bring to him. .

At this time when the world is being turned upside down, even if the time is still short and ordinary people may not have experienced it personally, how can the top human beings not be aware of the general trend of the future?Extraordinary beings will become the foundation of everything in the future!

Countless big families have gradually lost power because of this. The reason why the Lin family can still maintain its position is that in addition to winning over several genetic warriors in time, they also have a talented spiritual master.

Although a first-level high-level gene warrior is far less potential than a spiritual master, as his father, his status in the family will be greatly improved.

Lin Fangyuan, the eldest son of Mr. Lin, looked at his incompetent brother and sneered in his heart. He said with a smile on his face: "Xiao Jing should be called Lin Zejing by generation. Xiao Chong happens to be alone and there are no helpers around him. Although he is not a relative. Brothers, but connected by blood, working together to break the metal, with Xiao Jing here, Xiao Chong can devote more energy to cultivation."

The reason why Lin Fangyuan didn't care at all, and was even happy to see him have a nephew, was naturally because the most dazzling star of the Lin family, the future pillar, and the spiritual master who had entered the second-level powerhouse sequence was his son, the eldest grandson of the Lin family. , Lin Zechong.

Having one more first-level high-level gene warrior can better assist his son and consolidate the Lin family's status.

The father and son laughed together.

From the beginning to the end, they did not have the slightest worry about whether this so-called blood heir, who they had concealed and treated as non-existent, was willing to return to the Lin family.

The sound of text messages interrupted the smiles of several people. Lin Fangyuan took out his mobile phone and looked at it. His expression changed slightly and his face became as dark as water.

"what happened?"

"News from the military department, this little...Xiao Jing signed up to voluntarily participate in the operation to behead the Wushan Insect King!"

"what?"

Mr. Lin raised his eyebrows: "How could this kid... be so unwise?"

Lin Fangyuan also sighed: "At the beginning, the military wanted Xiao Chong to join this mission, but I pushed him away. Instead, the stubborn little girl from the Jiang family took over. How can that insect king in Wushan be so easy to kill? As far as I know, the military has made other preparations, and one mistake is... hey..."

"Forget it, let's keep quiet for now." Mr. Lin glared at the frightened second son and waved his hand: "We'll wait until he comes back alive."

...Another high-end community in Ningzhou.

A well-maintained middle-aged woman with a graceful face threw her mobile phone on the ground. Looking at a pair of children with incomprehensible expressions, a stern look flashed in her eyes, and she secretly hated her in her heart.

"The Lin family really thought it was a good idea to hide it. Do you think I didn't know about it all along? Huh, if the Lin family hadn't always pretended that the illegitimate child didn't exist and didn't even pay a cent of alimony, I would have asked the family to deal with the kid. Unexpectedly, Being soft-hearted for a moment can lead to serious problems!"

This middle-aged woman is Lin Fanghong's wife, Wang Xianwei, who comes from a family of prominent officials.

But no matter how much she hates her, she can only be helpless and furious.

The world is different from before the RR virus. Ever since the Lin family gave birth to a genius spiritual master, the status of the Wang and Lin families has been reversed.

"Hmph, the Lin family has a great idea!" Wang Xianwei sneered.

Her hostility towards her husband's illegitimate child is naturally not due to jealousy or love. When children of aristocratic families marry, love is the most insubstantial and weightless thing.

Profit and resources are what they value most.

The Lin family's resources for cultivating future generations are naturally limited, especially in this world. Only by becoming an extraordinary person, whether a genetic warrior or an extremely rare spiritual master, can one become a human master.

The news that the country is already developing some kind of genetic medicine is known to everyone at the top.

It is said that after taking this genetic medicine, it is even possible for ordinary people to become warriors overnight, and even genetic warriors will be improved after taking it.

Even if this kind of genetic medicine is successfully developed, the quantity will definitely not be large. After the military takes away most of it, the rich families like them will be able to get their hands on one or two.

If the illegitimate child returns to the Lin family, even if it is definitely not as good as the eldest grandson Lin Zechong, who is already a second-level spiritual master, it will definitely take away a large part of the Lin family's resources. This is what Wang Xianwei cannot bear, and it is even behind her back. This is unacceptable to the Wang family.

"No one can take away my son's things!" Wang Xianwei's face was cold.

What about genetic warriors?As long as they have not reached the second level, ordinary thermal weapons can be used to deal with them, and status is not that important. They are aristocratic families who have already collected countless ancient martial arts secret books. With the infusion of resources, becoming a genetic warrior is not as unattainable as it seems.

……

In Heyun City, Lu Jing, who had no idea that he was being targeted by many people, was excitedly reading the secrets of Chinese martial arts he had obtained from the military.

Lu Shengnan and Lu Shengchuan on the side were happily holding chocolate balls in their mouths with endless aftertaste expressions.

Nowadays, when everything is strictly rationed and only military rations of compressed biscuits are provided, vegetables, snacks, and meat are foods that most people can only dream of seeing, and vitamins and other basic nutrients can only be delivered regularly. Pill refills.

Not to mention Lu Shengchuan, who was still a child, even Lu Shengnan, who claimed to have become very mature and steady, could not maintain his original reserved look and was so intoxicated that he forgot everything he did.

Lu Shengnan put away the regretful expression of nostalgia on his face, wiped the corners of his mouth, and seemed to realize that he had just lost his temper. He put away the remaining candies amidst Lu Shengchuan's protests, a little shyly.

"Why don't you eat?" Lu Jing looked away from the secret book. He has no hobby for sweets and snacks. He has eaten less since he was a child. What's more, he can now eat precious monster flesh and blood in the military canteen, which has slightly improved his ability. Compared to the need to collect flesh and blood to enhance physical strength, no matter how delicious snacks are, they are all boring.

Lu Shengnan knocked on the greedy boy's forehead and curled his lips: "Even if you join the military, these things are not unlimited. Who knows if you can get them again after you go to Ningzhou? There is no place now. Production, Ningzhou has tens of millions of people, these non-staple foods may be more precious, and they may be able to be exchanged for other resources."

Lu Jing couldn't help but laugh out loud when he looked at his younger sister who already looked like the head of the family and was very calculating. He thought for a moment that he didn't know what artificial starch tasted like. It might be worse than military rations. For someone who has loved snacks and sweets since childhood. I'm afraid it's bad news for my younger siblings.

"Brother, why don't you come with us?"

"I'm going to train in Heyun City, and I'll go to Ningzhou to find you after the training. Don't worry, someone will temporarily take care of you when you go to Ningzhou. Maybe the place you live in will be bigger and more comfortable than our home." Lu Jing replied calmly.

He didn't tell his younger brothers and sisters about joining the operation to behead the Wushan Insect King, because he didn't want them to worry, and it was useless to worry.

Perhaps because this mission was indeed dangerous, the military took everything they asked for and gave him the authority to read and even take home almost all the secret books they had related to martial arts, yoga, etc.

"Internal boxing! I didn't expect there to be genuine internal boxing!"

Lu Jing browsed the secret book in his hand with fascination. After two experiences of coming to the Panlong World, he also learned a secret book of Dou Qi in the Panlong World. Lu Jing, whose eyesight has been greatly improved, can see what is in his hand at a glance. Jiaquan is the real secret book of Chinese martial arts, not the deceptive stuff he collected before.

Since Hong and Lei Shen can rely on internal martial arts and yoga to become the first and second strongest human beings in the future, it shows that national martial arts is indeed a correct way of training to help humans evolve and fight against monsters.

Although Lu Jing's talent and understanding are not comparable to those of Earth's peerless geniuses like Hong and Lei Shen, he thinks that practicing Neijiaquan will definitely help him reach the sky in one step, and his combat power will be greatly improved despite his unstable foundation.

"This half month should be enough for me to truly digest the sudden increase in power and form real combat power!"

"The mysterious gate still needs to kill at least ten high-level beast soldiers before it can be opened again. If I go to the wild alone and want to kill so many high-level beast soldiers, it is simply asking for death. After all, Krolo alloy has not been invented yet, and warriors simply cannot There is no weapon strong enough to deal with monsters, so joining this action team is indeed an excellent opportunity..."

A gentle knock on the door interrupted Lu Jing's thoughts. Lu Shengnan walked to the door warily, turned around in surprise and fear, "Brother, it's that Zheng Hu, why is he here?"

Zheng Hu?

Lu Jing has experienced so many things in the past two days that he has long forgotten about this person: "What is he here for? Looking for a fight?"
