Chapter 21 Waiting for Dawn ([-])

In the vast starry universe, the stars are shining.

The Democratic United States of Yseras is located in the remote southwest of the Toyosu star field.In this emerging democratic country, the people who originally expected to live a more prosperous life after the overthrow of the imperial rule lived a difficult life under the dictatorship of President Zagu.

In the past, under the rule of the Zhao Song Empire, he could still live a stable life.Although the quality of life is not as good as those of the big countries in the universe, in general, food and clothing are not worrying, and as long as you work hard, you will still have a bright future.

However, under Zaku's high-handed dictatorship, countless people's private property was plundered by powerful senior officials' families, corrupt officials ran rampant, the decadent army bullied the good and promoted the evil, various lethal weapons flowed into the people on a large scale, and countless planets were in chaos. Unbearable, it is difficult for ordinary people to survive.

When they learned that there was still a trace of blood in the Zhao Song Empire resolutely resisting, everyone's heart was full of hope, looking forward to the day when the glorious imperial army could reoccupy this starry sky and let them return to the happy life before. .

However, their hopes were dashed with the deployment of government troops.

Almost everyone knew that the last base of the empire was short of food and ammunition, and could not stop the army of the government army at all.But they still had a sliver of hope, until the government fleet sent back the news that the base was captured and the enemy was completely wiped out, people had no hope.

If you can't survive, then run away.

No matter which country, whether it is an imperial system, democracy, or religion, as long as it can make itself alive, it is fine.

For a time, people flocked to the spaceports of various planets, hoping to get a ticket to other countries.Tickets are limited, and some people would go bankrupt to get a ticket.However, those corrupt government workers did not prevent the people from fleeing, but instead controlled the space port and sold scalpers to make huge profits.

In order to leave, some people have even begun to sell their children... As the largest transportation company in the universe, Star Express, this kind of thing has long been commonplace.There are countless countries in the universe, and wars are happening all the time. As for the upsurge of fleeing in Iseras, the branch office just reported to the headquarters and then wantonly modified the interstellar train.

Lengthen, lengthen again.speed?It doesn't matter, they are all fleeing people anyway.

Widen, widen again.comfortable?My life is almost gone, so what do I need to be comfortable?
The interstellar train, which originally had a standard crew of 50000 people, forced nearly 20 people into it.

food?Sorry, our company did not prepare a large amount of food due to hasty preparations.If necessary, please contact the mobile vending cart to purchase by yourself.What?too expensive?Oh, you know, there are too many difficulties in interstellar transportation, such as fuel costs, staff costs, storage costs... densely packed people are crowded in a small space, the air is filthy, and it is difficult to move freely.The cheap meals that were originally provided for free were cancelled, and replaced by food and water that cost more than ten times the original price.It used to be an ordinary standard four-person room, but now it has become a ten-person room. Even if they are sleeping, they can't find a comfortable place. Many people directly spread their clothes on the floor and sleep with their clothes on.

Rich people take star cruise ships or private yachts, and those with acquaintances can take cargo spaceships.But ordinary people who have lived on land all their lives and have no money or power can only take this stuffy interstellar train.

The interstellar train full of people wobbled towards the distance at less than one-fifth of the usual speed... "Meow, Yunyi, Xiyue is hungry..."

The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and the eyes as pure as obsidian were looking at Yun Yi pitifully.

Touching the already empty stomach, Yunyi no longer dared to look into Princess Xiyue's eyes.It has been ten days since I came to this predetermined place, and the last piece of compressed dry food entered Xiyue's stomach under the watchful eye of Yun Yi, who was swallowing her saliva.

As for Yunyi, she hasn't eaten anything for three days.Even relying on his powerful martial arts cultivation base and the body transformed by the mysterious necklace, he can only reduce the amount of activity and endure it with difficulty.According to his estimation, he can only hold on for two more days at most.

After a little movement of her weak body, Yunyi smiled at Princess Xiyue, touched her head and said, "Okay, Xiyue. When the interstellar train arrives, I will take you to a big meal, okay?" good?"

"En!" Xiyue nodded heavily, and then said nothing, as if thinking about what to eat later.

His eyes fell on the screen of the on-board optical computer, and Yunyi's face was full of sadness.

According to the original interstellar train timetable of the Star Express Company, that nasty train should have arrived here long ago.But it has been seven days beyond the normal time, and there is no sign of arrival.

"Could it be changed?"

Yun Yi flashed this idea more than once.But he knew it was impossible.Star Express's interstellar trains rarely divert. Unless there is an irresistible accident like a supernova explosion on the route, or it has already been declared that a large-scale battle may occur, otherwise it will never be diverted.

However, this route seems to be very calm recently. Could it be that my luck is so bad that something happened to the Kung Fu route within a few days?

It seems unlikely that weather disasters are usually forecast several months in advance, and Yunyi has never heard of it. When I checked the route before, the Star MRT website did not announce it.Even if a war breaks out suddenly, there are no strategically important places or hostile forces nearby, so no matter how you calculate it, it is impossible for a war to break out here.

"Could it be that the interstellar train has left here during my inadvertent period?"

Suddenly, Yun Yi's heart felt cold, and he immediately checked the reconnaissance system and optical brain of the mech. After seeing the inspection, he was relieved.

Everything works, that is, the star train has not arrived yet.

"Wait a minute..."

Leaning on the seat of the mech, touching Princess Xiyue's smooth and smooth long hair, Yun Yi couldn't help but think of the things the little girl gave him a few days ago.

It was a simple book, and Yun Yi guessed what it was at a glance.Today, with advanced technology, people rarely use this primitive tool for recording made of biological materials, and instead use relatively common optical brain records.Today, when everyone has a wrist-based optical computer, how can a paper-based recording tool compare to an optical computer that is easy to use and has a huge capacity.

However, there are still some people who use paper materials to record something.

For example, martial arts cheats.

Sure enough, as he expected, on the cover of the book, there were five big characters written in simple and unsophisticated characters: "Heavenly Virtue and Righteous Art".

Seeing these five words suddenly, Yun Yi was startled.He is very clear about this secret book, which is only allowed to be practiced by the direct descendants of the royal family of the Zhao Song Empire, and it is never allowed to be passed on to anyone without permission.Haoqi Zhengtian Jue is a powerful exercise that every generation of emperors, princes and princesses must practice. Its cultivation speed is very fast, and its power is extremely powerful.After each breakthrough in martial arts, those who practice "Heavenly Qi Zhengtian Jue" will experience two to three times stronger changes in physical fitness than other ordinary exercises.

The power of "Heavenly Virtue" is definitely not small, which can be clearly seen from the history of every generation of princes and grandchildren.In the past, at the martial arts conferences held by the empire every year, except for a few times, among the top five each time, there must be a royal child who practiced the "Heavenly Virtue Art".Moreover, this kind of martial arts competition usually invites well-known martial arts masters from several nearby countries to comment on the referees, and cheating and leaking are not allowed at all. From this alone, it can be seen that "The Art of Haoqi Zhengtian" is definitely not in vain.

It is even more said that "The Art of Noble Qi and Righteousness" was awarded to the ancestors of the Zhao family with outstanding military achievements by the only emperor of the Galactic Empire who unified the entire universe more than 1000 years ago.
