ountain shrouded in mist, gazing down at the clouds swirling below. A sense of quiet solitude mingled with a feeling of grandeur filled his heart....A person can often be tranquil.... The supreme patr...“I was thinking, these people aren't necessarily heartless. How many of them have already become just like ordinary people They simply know nothing about the outside world because they've lived here for so long.” I raised an eyebrow and said, “These people must be very afraid to leave here, right”

"Mm." Mu Wanchen nodded. "He's caught between a rock and a hard place, and his roots are here. Even if he goes out to live elsewhere, he'll always miss this place, just like your great-grandmother."

Well, that old woman was so tough she made me forget her background.

“That’s different. The old lady experienced war, back then society was easy to integrate into. Now it’s different, over the past few decades technology has advanced by leaps and bounds, there are new things every day, I feel like I'm so outdated myself. Those who are stuck in their ways probably wouldn’t be able to adapt in a short time.” I tilted my head and thought for a moment.

If we can gradually relocate these "ordinary" residents, it should also alleviate some of the survival pressure within the Dharma Gate. Even if you are not at ease, you could relocate them to barren lands for farming and tree planting. After all, time will gradually assimilate these people.

The problem is, these people are unwilling to leave their homes unless they are forced to by survival.

If we move out, we still cannot integrate into society and are imprisoned like being confined within a boundary. Then, there is no difference between here and there, we will still naturally perish.

Thinking about it, things are really tough.

Two little paws suddenly pressed out from beneath the tent flap.

So clear you could see even the little paw pads, and because the waterproof canvas was so slippery, those tiny paws were patting and flapping on the door.

I unzipped the jacket, and Xiao Diao'er Xuan Yue immediately scurried inside.

It was frightened before, and now it doesn't listen well at all. It likes to hide.

Mu Wanchen said to just let it be, that it would be fine after a while. It was now very alert, staying in our tent overnight and standing up at the slightest rustle of wind, raising its front paws to its chest and looking around cautiously.

It looked quite pitiful, so we indulged it.

Our temporary dwelling in this valley is quite peaceful. The broken formation has a large toad guarding it, preventing anyone from getting close. Bai Ni is also hidden nearby in the dense forest, keeping watch. Overall, we are safe here.

The only downside is that there are a lot of snakes now.

The little snakes in the snake altar I fell into scattered everywhere after being startled, and there were countless small snakes throughout the entire temple.

Well, I'm not really afraid of snakes now... I should say, these snakes are a little afraid of me. They automatically avoid me when they see me.

Mu Wanchen was organizing people to catch the snakes and put them back in their den. They also had to clean up the bodies. Some of the bodies were blocking the river, turning white and rotting, beyond recognition.

In general, tidying up here is very difficult, and we also need to find secret medicine from the apothecary in the Witch King's city to burn incense and smoke it away to remove any possible corpse poison in the air.

My responsibility is to take care of these people's food and clothing. I organize young and middle-aged people to transport goods every day, and Master Yunfan delivers them to the entrance of the temple with all his heart and soul, and also arranges various disguised routes.

Until one day, the leader who came was not Master Yun Fan.

I stared blankly at the man coming down from the helicopter. The wind from the propeller tousled his tie and hair, but his expression remained calm, collected, and impeccable.

"Well, Mr. Lin, hello. What brings you here" I was a little surprised.

Lin Yanhuan walked to the edge of the forest, raised his hand to adjust his hair and tie, and replied faintly: "I let Yunfan go back to accompany his wife."

"Huh Lady Mu is giving birth" I was taken aback. This soon It shouldn't be time yet, right

Lin Yanhuan smiled faintly: “Not that fast, but it's reassuring to let him go back and watch me. I'll temporarily take charge of things here.”

"Okay, then thank you…" He sounded very serious and proper, so I didn't dare say much more.

He glanced at the alert Xuan Yue on my shoulder and smiled, "This little thing is poisonous too"

"Yes, but it's very docile and timid. It's better at being cute than being poisonous." I stroked Xuan Yue, letting it not be so aggressive towards Lin Yanhuan.

Lin Yanhuan shook her head and let out a soft sigh, "Mu Yunfan really gave me a headache-inducing task."

"Well, Young Master Lin, how much are these disaster relief supplies and shipping costs I—"

He arched an eyebrow slightly every day and smiled: "Disaster relief supplies and transportation costs don't cost much, but my time is priceless."

Oh my god.

How can I answer that

This young Master Lin is not as easy to talk to as Master Yun Fan. How should I politely express my gratitude And how can I coax him, get him to continue working hard for a few more trips

His status, knowledge and experience are far beyond what someone like me, a small shrimp, can compare to. It would be wrong of me to say more.

Lin Yanhuan narrowed his eyes slightly, sizing me up. He was much taller than me, and this superior gaze made me feel a little nervous.

"Miss Yin Luo, you've been associating with these people for so long. Tell me, do you think they are safe"

“Huh Safe What do you mean” I looked up at him.

He frowned and said in a low voice, "I want to disperse these people and relocate them, but I'm worried, fearing they might be aggressive."

"No, no!" I waved my hands quickly. "There are many people here who are just like ordinary people. They've lived in this simple environment for generations, knowing nothing about the outside world. Why don't you come in and see for yourself"

I pointed to the cliff behind me.

Actually, this isn't a cliff; it's just an illusion. Across from the "cliff," you can see a faint hint of charred vines—a sign that the inner workings of the magical barrier are starting to blend with the outside world.

Before Lin Yanhuan could speak, his bodyguard had already glared at me warily.

I shrugged and took a step back, waving my hand dismissively. "Forget it, forget it. A gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall, especially someone as esteemed as you. I'd rather not get myself into trouble..."

He was slightly taken aback, then chuckled and said, "What's wrong"

"I'm not the one to mess with, if you get hurt, I can't take responsibility." I thought for a moment and said, "I have photos and videos on my phone, why don't you take a look"

"Good." He nodded, seeming satisfied with my "work."

This guy must be a workaholic, he even unconsciously brings a touch of work jargon into his speech.

Some photos on my phone were taken secretly, and there are also some short videos of scenes recorded. Of course, I only filmed the terrain and landforms. I dare not film things that ordinary people can't understand.

Lin Yanhuan lowered her head and looked at the pictures on my phone, flipping through them while asking, "About how many people"

“Well, there are about 30,000 people here now, but some are still scattered in the valleys, trying to survive and gradually moving towards us. The food we receive each day can only barely sustain us. I'm already organizing them to produce their own supplies for self-sufficiency, so maintaining daily life is not a problem. The resources here are still quite abundant…”

After looking at the photos, he nodded and returned my phone: “For a young girl, you did a good job.”

“Thanks to your help, I would have been helpless.” I nodded slightly in thanks.

He smiled, and in a low voice said with hidden meaning: "Under heaven, all is the sovereign's territory; along the borders of this land, all are the sovereign's subjects... Helping you is also for the sake of stability."

Uh...ing that happened after that, including every person I met, is detailed.Tell the truth, and there will be no flaws.My senior brother listened silently as I finished speaking. His face wasn't good, but...
