Chapter 278 is trash to him, but a treasure to the country.
Chapter 278 is trash to him, but a treasure to the country.
"He has already passed away," Shen Yu said.
"He's passed away peacefully..." Zhao Rui said with a hint of disappointment.
I thought I was going to meet a legendary master.
"Mr. Shen, is there... any... treasures in there?" The secretary leaned closer and asked cautiously.
He is the local official in charge of the area; if there are any cultural relics in the cave, that would be a great achievement.
"Nothing special," Shen Yu said casually. "Just some ordinary things, I've already put them away."
"Ah..." The secretary was a little disappointed.
But I didn't dare say anything.
Since Mr. Shen has said that, what else can he do?
"I've adjusted the formation inside, so ordinary people won't get trapped anymore," Shen Yu said. "But we still can't find the stone chamber deep inside."
"You shouldn't even think about getting your hands on anything inside."
"Yes, yes, we understand." The secretary nodded quickly. "We definitely won't go in and cause trouble."
"Mm." Shen Yu nodded.
He glanced at the sky; it was getting late.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now," Shen Yu said.
"Oh? Mr. Shen, you're leaving already?" Zhao Rui was taken aback. "Why don't you stay for a meal?"
"No need," Shen Yu shook his head. "I have things to do at home."
"Well... alright then." Zhao Rui didn't dare to insist on keeping him. "Mr. Shen, please take care."
"Hmm." Shen Yu responded, and with a swift movement, he took flight and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
The Party Secretary and local leaders were dumbfounded.
It flew away... flew away?
Oh My God.
This is truly divine!
……
Zhao Rui looked in the direction Shen Yu had left, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
Mr. Shen, you're getting more and more impressive.
When will he be able to have even a tenth of Mr. Shen's abilities?
Zhao Rui shook his head, suppressing these thoughts.
"Alright, stop looking," Zhao Rui said to the secretary. "Everyone's been rescued, let's just drop this matter."
"From now on, don't let anyone enter that cave casually."
"Okay, I understand!" The secretary nodded quickly. "I'll send people to seal off the cave immediately, and no one is allowed to enter!"
"Mm." Zhao Rui nodded.
But he was thinking about something else.
A wise and accomplished person from ancient times.
Formation.
He passed away peacefully in meditation.
These words sound quite unusual.
It seems that the world is much more complex than he imagined.
……
Shen Yu left the Taihang Mountains but did not go straight home.
Instead, they found a secluded spot and stopped.
He stood on the mountaintop, gazing into the distance, silent.
Today's harvest was quite substantial.
Not only did they discover evidence of a cultivation civilization on Earth, but they also obtained a set of basic cultivation techniques, as well as spirit stones and elixirs.
Although they were all trash to him, they were treasures to a novice cultivator.
With these things, it will be much easier for the military to train its first batch of cultivators.
Shen Yu could sense that although the spiritual energy on Blue Star was still very thin, it was already a bit denser than when he first transmigrated here.
Although not obvious, it is indeed increasing.
At this rate, in a few decades or even a hundred years, the spiritual energy should be able to recover to a certain extent.
By then, more and more people will be able to cultivate.
More and more demons and monsters will emerge.
And then there are those foreign forces.
The Dark Council.
Nine Chrysanthemum School.
They must have also sensed the resurgence of spiritual energy.
They're all itching to make a move.
China cannot be unprepared.
He alone definitely can't do it.
A nation must have its own spiritual cultivation.
Shen Yu had already made up his mind.
It's time to tell the country the truth about cultivation.
To help the country train a group of monks.
In this way, even if he is no longer around, the country will still have the ability to protect itself.
Moreover, he is Chinese.
We can't just stand by and watch foreign heretical sects run rampant on Chinese soil.
Shen Yu took a deep breath, his eyes resolute.
It's settled then.
After I get back, I'll talk to Lin Jianguo.
Perfect timing, these things I have can come in handy too.
When Shen Yu got home, it was already dark.
"dad!"
"Dad, you're back!"
Upon hearing the door open, the two little ones, Niannian and Guigui, immediately ran over and jumped into Shen Yu's arms.
"Did you miss your dad?" Shen Yu smiled, picked up the two children, and kissed each of them.
"I've thought about it!"
"I really want to!"
The two little ones hugged Shen Yu's neck, chattering about what had happened that day.
Jiang Xinlan also came out of the kitchen, looking at Shen Yu with a gentle smile on her face.
"You're back?" she said softly.
"Yes, you're back." Shen Yu put the child down, walked to Jiang Xinlan's side, and gently hugged her. "I'm sorry to have worried you."
"I know you're strong and nothing will happen," Jiang Xinlan said softly, leaning against him. "But I'm still worried."
"Silly girl." Shen Yu smiled and pinched her cheek.
The family was happy and harmonious.
……
In the evening, after dinner, I put the two children to sleep.
Shen Yu and Jiang Xinlan sat in the courtyard, brewed a cup of tea, and chatted.
Moonlight streamed into the courtyard, and the hot spring steamed gently, creating a very comfortable atmosphere.
"How was the trip to the Taihang Mountains today? Was it safe?" Jiang Xinlan asked.
"There's no danger." Shen Yu smiled. "I even discovered something interesting."
"Something interesting?" Jiang Xinlan was taken aback. "What is it?"
"A cave dwelling left behind by an ancient cultivator," Shen Yu said. "There are quite a few things inside: spirit stones, pills, magic artifacts, and a set of basic cultivation techniques."
"Cultivators?" Jiang Xinlan's eyes widened. "There are other cultivators on Blue Star?"
She had always thought that Shen Yu was the only cultivator.
"There was once." Shen Yu nodded. "A long time ago, there was also a cultivation civilization on Blue Star, but it declined after the spiritual energy was depleted."
"That cave dwelling was left behind by a cultivator named Qingyunzi from ancient times."
"He passed away peacefully, leaving behind these things, hoping that future generations will be able to inherit them."
"I see..." Jiang Xinlan was a little surprised. "Then... what about now? Will the spiritual energy recover?"
"Yes." Shen Yu nodded. "Spiritual energy is cyclical, and it's starting to recover slowly now."
"A resurgence?" Jiang Xinlan was taken aback. "Does that mean there will be more and more cultivators in the future?"
"Yes." Shen Yu nodded. "That should be the case."
"Then... is there any danger?" Jiang Xinlan asked, a little worried.
With more cultivators, won't things get chaotic?
