I'm not a drama god

Chapter 1552 Livestock?

"Then...should we go take a look?" another knight asked tentatively. "If there really is Red Star's secret hidden in there, will it help us avoid Red Star in the future?"

"But isn't this too dangerous?"

"Well... indeed. After all, we still have many residents. What if something unexpected happens?"

"Anywhere related to the Red Star doesn't seem simple."

"..."

Everyone discussed for a while, and finally turned their eyes to Wuji Jun who was standing aside. After all, there was only one absolute leader in the Eternal Realm, and whether to go or not was up to Wuji Jun to decide.

Wuji Jun never interrupted. He frowned and fell into deep thought.

What the knight said just now was very true. If Wuji Jun was alone, he would go and see what the chaos was all about... It was related to the Red Star and was suspected to be the biggest secret of the Ghostly Abyss. This was a secret area that none of the Nine Juns had ever set foot in.

Moreover, the Eternal Realm is also a super weapon to some extent. The combat power that Wuji Jun can exert here is enough to fight against the world-destroying disaster alone without being defeated. In this era, he has almost no rivals.

But the problem is that there are still many Wuji residents here... If you are not sure how dangerous it is in there, it will always be risky to go in.

"Actually, it may not be dangerous. Haven't all the disasters from the Ghost-Mocking Abyss gone in? With Lord Wuji here, we are much stronger than them." A knight had a flash of thought and spoke again.

"It makes sense..."

Everyone's opinions changed again. They were like two little men standing on Wuji Jun's shoulders. One said to go in and take a look, and the other said to protect himself. The quarrel made Wuji Jun feel annoyed.

"Okay." He interrupted everyone's discussion.

"Let's go closer and take a look. If there's any danger, we'll come out immediately."

Wuji Jun spoke, and the knights naturally had no objections. As low roars echoed from beneath the Eternal Realm, this massive floating fortress began to slowly turn towards the embers of civilization...

At the same time, Wuji Jun spoke again slowly:

"This area is behind the Ghostly Abyss... If that's the case, that person must know the details of this place..."

"I'll go ask him, maybe I can get the answer."

……

dong dong dong-

"Xiaochen, get up and have breakfast." A woman's call came from outside the door.

"Humph, don't you know this brat? He can get up and eat breakfast? It's good enough that he doesn't sleep until noon..."

"I'm just worried he's hungry... You're the same way. You beat him up so late last night and stayed up all night."

"Alright, alright, let him sleep a little longer, we'll have breakfast together..."

creak-

Just as the woman turned around to leave, the sound of a door being pushed open came from behind her.

The boy had already dressed early and came out of the bedroom. He touched his stomach and said, "Dad, Mom, good morning... I'm a little hungry too, let's eat something together."

The entire living room suddenly fell silent.

The middle-aged man who had just sat down at the dining table looked at his "rebellious son" who had already washed up, his mouth wide open in shock...

The woman looked towards the boy's bedroom and saw that the quilt and pillows on the bed were neatly folded. The Gobang game she had bought for him years ago was also found and placed on the table. It looked like he had been playing for a long time...

"Xiaochen, you...you got up so early today?"

"It's not that early, maybe around six o'clock."

"A little after six?"

"I couldn't sleep, so I got up and played a few games of chess."

The boy didn't sit down casually as usual and wait for his mother to serve him food. Instead, he walked directly into the kitchen, scooped himself a bowl of porridge, and even took three pairs of chopsticks...

Then he sat down at the dining table and ate his breakfast leisurely.

The man sitting opposite him looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"Well... Xiaochen, Daddy hit you too hard last night... But... Daddy was doing this for your own good..." The man thought that he had hit the child too hard yesterday and had caused him to have some mental illness, so he spoke hesitantly.

"It's okay, Dad. I understand." The boy answered without raising his head and put a piece of pickled mustard greens into his father's bowl.

The man's voice stopped suddenly.

He stared at the few strands of pickled mustard greens floating in his bowl, his mind blank... Was he dreaming? That rebellious kid, always so naughty, was actually offering him food? He'd only ever dreamt of this kind of loving father and filial son scene.

Did the child really become stupid?

The woman at the side walked up, pinched the man hard under the table, and then glared at him.

That look seemed to be saying, you beat Xiaochen so hard yesterday, look what you've done to him now?

"Go and fry me another egg. I want to have a good chat with my son." The man felt pain, but he didn't dare to show it. He gave the woman a look that said, "Let me see what's going on."

The woman glared at him again, but turned and walked towards the kitchen.

The man turned around and smiled:

"Xiao Chen..."

"Dad, what do you think is the meaning of life?"

"????"

pat-

The crisp sound of a spatula falling to the ground came from the kitchen.

The woman turned around trembling, her face already pale...

"Look, the Eternal Realm is strange, isn't it?" the boy asked seriously. "There's no work here, no need for professions. All one needs to do is follow the rules to gain unlimited resources... But is such a life truly meaningful?"

The man was stunned for a long time. He was very surprised why his son would ask such a question today. But looking at the unprecedented serious eyes, after thinking for a while, he answered:

"What's wrong with that? Xiaochen, have you forgotten how difficult our life was in the Xuanyu Realm before coming to the Eternal Realm?"

"I just feel that life shouldn't be just like this... Maybe we need work to prove our significance."

"Work? No, Lord Wuji has strictly forbidden it. You can't work." The man shook his head. "Anyone who tried to refute this rule and arrange a job or occupation has been imprisoned in the dungeon... Xiaochen, you can say this at home, but you must never say it outside."

"Dungeon..."

The boy frowned slightly.

Deep in his thoughts, unseen by his parents, behind the boy, Chen Ling, draped in her opera robes, narrowed her eyes slightly...

It turned out to be the case.

Without work, there would be no professions. Furthermore, the residents of the Eternal Realm were refugees from the Xuanyu Realm, without any cultural heritage or inheritance. Consequently, the probability of "divinely favored ones" appearing in the Eternal Realm would be drastically reduced...

Wujijun wants to use this method to control the frequency of the appearance of Shinto owners to facilitate "fair" management?
