301, Global Evolution 3
"A Chu, now is not the time to lose your temper." Yan Xiu looked at his younger brother and said helplessly.
"You guys, please go and notify the residents in this area first, and ask them to quickly prepare the necessary luggage. In an hour, we will gather at the entrance of the villa area. Those with cars will drive, and those without cars will take our military vehicles. After this time, , then let them evacuate on their own.”
Yan Xiu knew that it would take some time to persuade this stubborn brother, but he came here today with his mission, so at the first opportunity, Yan Xiu decided to let other brothers go and notify the community first Residents, before those strange mutated animals arrive, gather the survivors here and take them to a relatively safe safe area.
"yes."
Those determined soldiers with weapons obeyed the order and evacuated and ran in several different directions in the community.
"Dad, he is very worried about you, and me - and your Aunt Lin." The Aunt Lin in Yan Xiu's mouth is his biological mother and Yan Chu's nominal stepmother.
Speaking of which, the chaos in the relationship between the Yan family's characters cannot be explained in just a few words.
Yan Xiu and Yan Chu's father, Yan Guohua, was the youngest major general in China. When he was young, he was almost the most promising junior in the military and political circles, and he was also the top ten son-in-law candidate in the eyes of many people.
Because he received military education since he was a child, Yan Guohua is rigorous and perseverant. Although due to career restrictions, being his wife may not be able to enjoy the happiness of having her husband by her side 24 hours a day, but she will never have her husband outside. Troubles with waving red flags.
Especially the family background of the Yan family and Yan Guohua's own efforts will definitely bring endless glory to his wife.
Compared with the second and third generations in the same circle who have nothing to do and wait to die, people like Yan Guohua have become the rare ones.
What caught everyone's attention was that Yan Guohua actually married Lin Xiang, a girl from a mediocre family. Her parents were just ordinary working-class people, and her daughter was not particularly outstanding. She went to an ordinary university and became an ordinary girl after graduation. An ordinary elementary school teacher, even his appearance is ordinary.
The only thing that can be praised is the other party's amazing cooking skills and his gentle temper.
But with a family like theirs, they couldn’t hire any kind of cook. Why would they need a wife to cook three meals a day and take care of the whole family’s daily life?
At that time, Yan Guohua was not the only junior member of the Yan family. Not all of the connections left by Mr. Yan, who had not passed away, would fall on Yan Guohua, the most promising junior of the Yan family.
Marrying a wife who couldn't give him any help ruined the support of his wife's family. This alone made Yan Guohua's mother feel very dissatisfied.
In the beginning, Yan Guohua was still able to protect his wife, but as he had to perform more and more tasks, Lin Xiang's grievances accumulated more and more where he could not see them.
It wasn't until the birth of Yan Xiu, the eldest grandson of the Yan family, that Lin Xiang's life became easier.
But soon, Lin Xiang's good days came to an end when news came that Yan Guohua had disappeared while performing a mission abroad and was most likely dead.
Yan's mother didn't know where she heard the news, saying that Lin Xiang's horoscope was her son's death. Yan's mother, who was immersed in the pain of losing her son, lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong. The daughter-in-law couldn't stand it and kicked her out of the Yan family. She also didn't want the grandson who was suspected of being a father-in-law.
Anyway, she has another son, and several other grandchildren who are more to her liking.
During the years when Yan Guohua disappeared, life was really difficult for Lin Xiang, mother and son. Due to the pressure from Yan's mother, apart from being a cleaner and waiter, Lin Xiang could hardly find any other job that could support them.
Lin Xiang also has an older brother. Due to the threat from the Yan family, Lin's father and Lin's mother did not dare to provide any support to this daughter for the sake of their younger son's future.
Lin Xiang lived such a difficult life for five years. During these five years, she aged by more than ten years.
Just when she felt tired and felt like she couldn't hold on anymore, Yan Guohua came back, but when he came back, he also brought back a young, beautiful, well-born woman, and a boy who was just one month old and had a beautiful face.
It turned out that he lost his memory during the years when he disappeared. During this period of amnesia, he married the girl who saved him, Yu Chuchu.
The girl who saved him was his mother, and she was also the marriage partner that the Yan family had favored for him before he married Lin Xiang.
Now, everything was in chaos.
Lin Xiang is the wife of Yan Guohua, a well-known matchmaker, but what happened to him and Yu Chuchu over the years cannot be erased. In addition, they both have children, and the Yu family is not someone to be bullied. They must stand up and let the Yan family give Yu Chuchu Home an explanation.
During that time, Yan Guohua's mother was jumping up and down, forcing Lin Xiang to divorce her son. On the other hand, the Yu family was quiet, and it was not clear what their attitude was towards this matter.
A lot of things happened in the middle. Yan Guohua and Lin Xiang divorced and remarried. Yan Guohua recovered his memory and at the same time forgot what happened during the period of amnesia. Yu Chuchu was revealed to be suffering from severe depression and irritability...
During that time, there were good shows to watch in the circle every day.
Later, the heads of the Yan family and the Yu family stood up and settled the matter completely.
Others don't know how the two patriarchs weighed the interests here. The ending they saw was that Lin Xiang returned to Yan Guohua with her child, and Yan Guohua moved out of the old house of the Yan family with his wife and children. Under the warning of Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yan was not allowed to interfere in the affairs between her son and daughter-in-law again.
As for Yu Chuchu, she was sent abroad, but the son she and Yan Guohua had was kept by Mr. Yu to take care of him. After all, Yu Chuchu's mental ability at that time was not enough for her to be a good mother.
The second year after Yu Chuchu went abroad, due to improper supervision by the caregivers, she jumped from the roof of her home and ended her young life.
No one can tell who is right and who is wrong among the elders except the parties involved.
The existence of the original body is a thorn in the throat of Lin Xiang, the real wife of Yan Guohua. All she can do is keep silent when Yan Guohua fulfills his fatherly obligations to his son. No matter how much she wants her to do, it is absolutely impossible.
Fortunately, she did not extend her hatred for Chuchu to this child. Although she still had a grudge against what happened to Yu Chuchu during the years when Yan Guohua disappeared, her hatred for Chuchu should have ended completely on the day she died. She had no love or hate for that child, and she would not stop her son from getting along with this half-brother.
Mr. Yu only had Yu Chuchu, a daughter who had been in poor health since childhood and was sent abroad for recuperation. Most of the future of the Yu family would be taken over by the outstanding children of the Yu family. Mr. Yu's health was not good. He had kept this grandson and took care of him by his side before, and he also wanted to deepen the connection between this grandson and his biological father, hoping that someone would still protect him after a hundred years.
Therefore, with the silent consent of both sides, the original body, who was still young at the time, had a very good relationship with Yan Guohua, his father, and Yan Xiu, his brother. In addition to his admiration for heroes, he admired his father and brother.
But which child doesn't care about his mother? As he grew up day by day, he saw that his brother had a mother, but he didn't have one. The original body was confused, and because of this doubt, he was taken advantage of.
I don't know where the original body believed the rumors from. He firmly believed that his mother was killed by Lin Xiang, and that his mother and his father were originally a couple. It was Lin Xiang who intervened and snatched the position of the young lady of the Yan family, causing his mother to leave the country. It was not until later that he found his father who was seriously injured and had lost his memory that he reunited with him.
He didn't want to think too badly of his mother, so naturally, he could only regard Lin Xiang, a woman who was interspersed in the story of his parents, as an evil villain.
Therefore, the relationship between the original body and his father and half-brother became more and more indifferent, and the gap between the two sides became larger and larger.
When the old man passed away, the original body didn't even have a person to comfort him, and even went to the point of not communicating with each other.
Yan Chu looked at the man with a cold face, but his eyes revealed an imperceptible nervous worry, and lowered his eyes.
"Haha, that woman killed my mother, and I'm afraid she wants to kill me too. Don't be so hypocritical. I won't go with you." It's not time for him to go back yet. There is one thing he must solve.
Yan Chu, who has the memory of the original body, certainly knows that the person in front of him is innocent. Although the birth of the two of them seems to have laid the foundation for them to embark on a hostile path, Yan Xiu, the brother, has been sincere to him from beginning to end, including Lin Xiang. Neither of them has transferred their disgust for his mother to him.
It's a pity that the original body is too paranoid. He made a mistake and was used as a pawn by others.
In the previous life, when the original sound killed Yan Xiu, the brother, and was pulled by the collar and slapped by Lin Xiang but did not resist, he had already understood this.
"Ah Chu, now is not the time for you to be willful. Even if I have to tie you up, I have to tie you back."
Yan Xiu smiled bitterly. He didn't know that his brother had misunderstood him and his mother to such an extent. If he found out who was instilling such ideas in his brother behind the scenes, he would definitely skin that person and cut him into pieces.
Relying on the fact that he was half a head taller than his brother, Yan Xiu turned sideways, went around behind him, and swung his hand at his neck when his brother was not paying attention. However, Yan Chu actually dodged his attack to his surprise.
"I said, I won't go back."
Yan Chu looked stubborn and alert, just like the way his original body treated him before.
"When did you learn to be so skilled?"
Yan Xiu was a little lean. When he was a child, he often went to the army with his brother and trained with the soldiers under their father. At that time, they had the best time to play with each other. However, later, his brother was not willing to play with him. Perhaps in order to go against them, he abnormally liked to drink, smoke, and go to nightclubs.
Fortunately, even if it was for fighting, he did not completely ruin his body, indulge in drugs or prostitution, otherwise Yan Xiu might not be able to help but lock up this brother and beat him up to make him learn a lesson.
He originally thought that his brother's skills would have become rusty after so many years, but he didn't expect that when they fought now, his reaction ability and agile movements were even better than before.
I think when he couldn't see, his brother didn't give up their happy childhood and worked hard in private. As for his resistance and disgust towards him, it was just because of misunderstanding.
Thinking of the scene where his brother couldn't bear to leave him as his brother, but was stubborn and refused to bow his head because of misunderstanding, Yan Xiu's heart softened immediately.
But when he thought of some mutant animals running around in the city when they came out of the safe zone, and some plants that were huge and weird even though they had not shown any abnormality, Yan Xiu's heart hardened again.
Even for his brother's safety, he had to take him back.
"I said, I won't go back."
Yan Chu pulled Yan Aotian, who was pretending to be dead, and prepared to walk towards the old house.
"Aoao——"
Yan Aotian seemed to realize that now that the terrifying Samoyed was gone, it was time for him to pretend to be powerful, and he roared at Yan Xiu threateningly.
"You still keep this husky?"
Yan Xiu remembered that his brother seemed to have a dog he picked up, which was naughty and evil. There were so many cases of pets attacking their owners before. He thought about whether to take this stupid dog away from his brother, but due to the big enough conflict between the two sides, he stopped what he wanted to say, but added more people to protect his brother, and shot it directly when the dog mutated.
Now it seems that this dog does not seem to be affected by the mutation of the earth, and looks as stupid and mean as before.
Suppressing his helplessness about his brother raising this useless stupid dog, Yan Xiu rolled up his sleeves and planned to subdue his brother with violence.
He didn't believe that even if his brother secretly exercised, he could still compare with him, the big brother who crawled out of the mountains of corpses and seas of fire.
"Hu-Hu-Hu-Hu-"
Before Yan Xiu made a move, the tall pine tree in the community suddenly began to shake. Because the pine tree was too large and its roots were deeply rooted in this area, when it began to shake, the entire ground felt the tremor. The residents who had been staying in the villa area and keeping quiet could not help but scream, thinking that an earthquake was coming.
Now the sun has completely come out, and Yan Chu can also see the whole picture of the pine tree.
After these days of thorough evolution, this pine tree is already 11 or 12 meters high, with a thick trunk that six or seven adults cannot hug together.
The pine needles on the tree are dense. I don't know if it's because of evolution, each pine needle is shining with a dark green luster, just like the best jade.
At the beginning, the pine tree, which had no dangerous aura, suddenly became restless after Yan Xiu took action against Yan Chu. It trembled its huge body, and the pine needles on one of the branches shot out rapidly. If Yan Xiu hadn't dodged quickly, I'm afraid he would have been stabbed into a hornet's nest by these pine needles.
Even so, seeing every pine needle deeply pierced into the solid cement ground, leaving only a small part of the pine needle outside, Yan Xiu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and couldn't imagine what would happen if such a strong pine needle pierced his body.
He looked at the giant pine tree vigilantly. This was the first mutated plant he had seen.
It seemed that this place was no longer safe. He had to notify his men to evacuate the people quickly, otherwise if this pine tree went crazy, with the dense pine needles on it, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get out alive.
Yan Xiu calmly took out the walkie-talkie, tried to minimize the scope of his actions, and informed his men of what happened outside, asking them to quickly take the residents here away and gather at the gate of the community.
After notifying these messages, Yan Xiu took a few steps forward, grabbed his brother's hand, and wanted to take him away.
It was this action of his that another pine needle flew, none of which was directed at Yan Chu. The target of all the flying needles was only him.
Yan Xiu was confused. He didn't understand what the situation was like.
After the experiment just now, Yan Chu had a guess.
He slowly walked towards the giant pine tree. Yan Xiu wanted to call his brother before he could think, but the pine tree didn't give him the chance at all. Waves of pine needles shot at him, leaving him no time to speak or think except to dodge.
Step by step, Yan Chu finally walked under the giant pine tree. From beginning to end, he didn't feel any hostility from the giant pine tree.
Tentatively, Yan Chu put his hands on the giant pine tree. At that moment, he seemed to hear an ancient, yet pleasant long breath.
This was a mysterious feeling. Yan Chu realized that the giant pine tree seemed to have its own thinking ability, just like the tree spirit in the myth. Because of this global mutation, the giant pine tree became a spirit.
Moreover, the giant pine tree that became a spirit still remembered the bond between the original body and it. Subconsciously, it was unwilling to hurt him, and even took the initiative to stand up and protect him when he was in danger.
I'm afraid that even if the Samoyed didn't leave, the giant pine would still help him when he was in danger, right?
Yan Chu suddenly realized that there was no need for him to leave. With this giant pine tree, the old house where the original body lived since childhood was the safest place.
Realizing this, Yan Chu couldn't help but laugh.
He couldn't help but ponder the rough trunk of the giant pine for a few times. It seemed that he felt Yan Chu's joyful breath. The branches of the pine tree trembled happily, and the pine needles emitted inevitably increased a little, which made Yan Xiu beside him miserable.
"Grandpa Pine Tree, that's my brother. He has no ill will towards me."
This pine tree is older than the original body's grandfather. It is said that it was planted by the original body's grandfather and his father when he was young. When Mr. Yu was a child, he played in this yard. Until the day he died, he was sitting on a recliner in the yard and slowly closed his eyes.
The original body's mother had a bad health since she was a child. Before going abroad, the most active area was this acre and three-point land in the yard. After the original was born, because Mr. Yu was getting older, he couldn't take his little grandson around. Most of the time, he took him to play some small games suitable for all ages in the yard. Therefore, for the three generations of the Yu family, this big pine tree with special significance is also an irreplaceable existence.
As if it understood Yan Chu's words, the giant pine tree's shaking speed gradually slowed down, and the original attack on Yan Xiu also stopped.
"This is--"
Yan Xiu had never seen such a scene before. This giant pine tree would actually obey the control of his younger brother.
"Do you really not want to leave with me?" Yan Xiu looked at Yan Chu with a complicated expression and asked.
The safe zone is not entirely under the control of the Yan family. Moreover, the reason why his younger brother has such a deep concern for them is probably inseparable from the instigation of some people with ulterior motives.
Yan Xiu probably has several suspects, and without exception, those who are suspected by him are still staying in the safe zone at this time.
Rather than forcing his younger brother to return to the safe zone that has not been completely settled, it is better to leave him in the old house of the Yu family. At least with the protection of this giant pine tree with strong attack power, his younger brother will be safer than staying with him.
Yan Xiu never denied that sometimes many creatures are more trustworthy than people.
"I want to stay here."
Yan Chu nodded.
According to the evolution speed of plants and animals in the original body's memory, he doesn't need to worry about attacks from other threatening creatures in the short term. He can stay in the old house safely and wait for the activation of superpowers.
Moreover, with the protection of the giant pine, he can free his hands as soon as possible, straighten out the thoughts of the original body, and catch all those who harmed him, Yan Xiu, and Yan Guohua in the previous life.
Yan Xiu glanced at his brother and gave up his plan when he came. At this time, the soldiers had almost gathered the residents of the villa area and were waiting for Yan Xiu to lead them to evacuate.
"Hurry up and leave, didn't you say we were going to the safe zone?"
"That's right, why aren't you leaving yet? A really big dog just came here. If we don't leave now, it will turn around and come back and eat us all."
"Why are you still standing there, soldier? If he wants to die, let him stay here. You can't delay all of our lives for him. Do you know who I am? Believe it or not, I will report you and peel off this green skin from your body."
The people in the villa area were shouting, and Yan Xiu looked at them coldly. After they gradually stopped talking in fear, he left his new contact information in his brother's hand, intending to come back here and pick up his brother when the safe zone was completely under the control of their Yan family.
