The country asked you to farm, you planted corn cannons

Chapter 621: The not-too-distant future

Li Yang looked around and suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, you were planning to give up at the beginning, why did you still run to Blue Star to find me?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned, and soon understood what he meant.

She lowered her eyes and was silent for a moment before answering: "It's the same as at the beginning... I really can't bear to see you bear all this alone."

"If nothing unexpected happens, you will encounter the same dilemma every time."

"Even without me, you will still fall into reincarnation again and again." She said softly, with a hint of sadness in her tone, "In the final analysis, in this situation, even people with power are prone to loneliness... No matter how powerful you are, you are just one person after all."

Li Yang smiled and didn't answer.

"I said at the beginning that no matter what the future holds, I will always be by your side." Jiang continued, "And as your last passerby, I will of course keep my promise."

"But in the end... I still couldn't be your real support, and I'm sorry." She smiled innocently, "After all, I'm not like you, I don't have such a strong power, and I can't support the burden you carry... But in the end, we still met..."

Li Yang didn't answer, but just looked at her silently.

The night outside was deep, and the starry sky outside the window was particularly clear.

"Now, with our best efforts, we don't need to worry about anything that comes next." Li Yang's eyes were firm and determined, "So, let everything develop naturally."

"After all, the future talent has long been on the way..."

Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded and suddenly smiled: "Yes, it has long been on the way."

The two smiled at each other, as if in the ordinary conversation, there was a feeling that spanned thousands of years.

Perhaps, as Li Yang said, they have done what they should do.

And the next road should be carried on by the new civilization.

So, after drinking one glass of wine after another, the two stood up at the same time tacitly.

The old man saw this and hurried forward to see them off: "You two are drinking so happily! I can see that you must have tasted many fine wines, but you still appreciate the special blends of our place so much. It's really an honor."

Li Yang just smiled and said nothing more.

Jiang Xiaoxiao turned around, but suddenly turned back and asked: "Old man, can I ask you a question?"

"Of course, just ask."

"You must have seen too many civilizations rise and fall while staying here." Jiang Xiaoxiao looked up and down inside the tavern, "This tavern has also accompanied many generations."

"Haha, you are right, you are right." The old man laughed heartily, "This tavern has been passed down for seven or eight generations. From the first boss, and then my generation... This tavern has witnessed too many things, but it has always existed here, accompanying new generations of drinkers."

"So... Even if you have witnessed such changes, what do you think of the future?" Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled, "Can you imagine what changes may happen in the future?"

"Haha, you asked a good question. "The old man shook his head, "To be honest, I don't see it clearly... After all, I am old now, and even if I live another ten or eight years, I can't see anything new. "

"But..." The old man exhaled heavily, squinting at the unchanging starry sky outside the window, "I think that [future] should not be too far away. "

"Now I am old, I am afraid I can't wait for that day. "

"But..." The old man's eyes were firm, "Even if I can't wait, I will definitely see the signs of the future appear in my lifetime. "

"By then, I think... this tavern can still exist. I don't know how it will be transformed, but in any case it will accompany the people of the new era, just like we are now, enjoying the beauty of life. "

The old man said at the end, his tone was full of certainty and hope.

Li Yang listened for a long while before nodding silently and making no comment.

Jiang Xiaoxiao stared at the old man's clear eyes, which seemed to reflect too much hope...

Li Yang and Jiang Xiaoxiao left the pub silently and walked onto the street outside.

The street scene under the night seemed to be permeated with a primitive and simple atmosphere.

The two walked side by side, and no one spoke. Perhaps in each other's hearts, the old man's words just now explained a lot.

From the old man's eyes, they saw a tenacious and unyielding fire of hope.

This fire of hope just represents the ray of hope that all civilizations can still rekindle in suffering.

It is precisely because of this ray of hope that a new fire of civilization will eventually be born.

And the reason why they can let go is precisely because they see the dawn of light gradually appearing.

The two walked along the way, passing through the streets and alleys, passing through the slightly dilapidated houses, passing through everything.

It seems that all along the way, they are telling a process of once being glorious, then declining, and now re-giving new vitality.

But no matter which stage they are in, these buildings, these streets, these residents, are telling an eternal theme in their own way - the progress of civilization.

Yes, the progress of civilization is endless, even if it is occasionally suspended, it will eventually roll back.

This is just like what Li Yang and Jiang Xiaoxiao did back then. Although the price was heavy, the effort will eventually have its meaning and value.

The two walked like this, passing through those corners that were completely forgotten by civilization, looking at these relics that were originally left behind, and suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment.

It was not until a long time later that the two stopped and came to their senses. They had come to a suburb.

Here, the view is endless, and the stars are scattered on the ground, like pearls inlaid on the curtain.

The breeze blows slowly, bringing bursts of fragrance.

Li Yang took a deep breath and suddenly said: "What we are seeing now, you have seen it countless times before, right? Do you feel that it is all worth it?"

Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded: "Of course... I have always doubted it."

"Civilization will start again from the most original state and gradually move towards a new height. And this process will also be as you wish, a brand new manifestation."

Jiang Xiaoxiao said slowly, "There is a beginning and an end, and it goes on and on... This is the true eternity."

Li Yang listened quietly and suddenly smiled: "Then let's wait and see what new and strange scenes will appear in this world."

"After all, this time it is not just the civilization of Blue Star... but all civilizations in the entire universe."

"How it will go... It is hard to predict." Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and shook his head, "But no matter what, you have a backup, don't you?"
