Alien Dust

Chapter 7 Seeking a Way Out

Yu Yu was still shaking and crying, and nothing could be done to comfort her.

Wu Hen looked up at this moment and saw his mother Yu Yi, who was also helpless and at a loss in the room.

Looking into the room, I saw my father Wu Yingting sitting on a chair, silently sorting out the goods to be put on the stall this morning.

From his back, Wu Hen couldn't tell whether he had not listened to the world's declaration just now at all, or had already understood the matter.

"Come in and talk." Finally, Wu Yingting spoke.

While comforting his sister Yu Yu, Wu Hen closed the door of his house.

In fact, at the moment the news was announced, the outside world was in chaos, with car horns honking throughout the entire city. Even with such noise, it could not cover up the cries of collapse coming from the windows of countless families!
Close the door, let the world be a little quiet, the family must sit down and have a serious talk!

Fortunately, from the eyes of his three family members, Wu Hen saw something as firm as his own heart, that is, the family affection between them is by no means fictitious!
"Dad, did you know the truth earlier?" Finally, Wu Hen asked this question.

The bankruptcy of his father's business was too sudden and too bizarre. Based on Wu Hen's understanding of his father, he was definitely not a reckless person.

He was able to become a respected entrepreneur in Licheng, so it was impossible for him to become completely wiped out overnight, unless...

"Yes, I knew it a year ago." Wu Yingting put down what he was holding and answered the question seriously.

"Husband, the real reason for your bankruptcy..." Yu Yi looked at her husband.

Despite such a rapid fall, her husband did not explain to her the real reason. However, as a wife, Yu Yi could see that her husband had been under tremendous pressure in the past year and was even close to collapse!
"I've been there before. It's even scarier than all the nightmares we've ever seen in our dreams. To be honest, after I first entered there, I told myself that I must protect you and not let you be exiled to that kind of hellish place."

"I tried again and again, and failed again and again. Even if I spent all my family wealth, I still couldn't gain a foothold there..." Wu Yingting finally expressed his bitterness and helplessness.

He might be able to do business, but as for him to survive in an unknown and unfamiliar world, it’s not that he hasn’t tried before, but he completely collapsed!
Wu Hen looked at his father in astonishment, and in an instant he understood why his tall and majestic father collapsed and why his figure became hunched!
It turns out that he already knew the truth.

He is trying to find a way out for this family and is willing to devote his entire life to it.

But the world has changed, the rules have changed, and he is getting older, so it’s hard for him to adapt!

In fact, it is rare to have the courage to accept this truth and to find a way out!

"What is it like over there? Can our family still stay together like we do now?" Finally, mother Yu Yi asked.

"I used my last funds to buy an insurance from a pioneer, asking him to treat us as his followers, so that we would have a shelter in Nuwa's temple, but unfortunately, he got lost last month," said Wu Yingting.

Wu Yingting actually invested in many pioneers, but God seemed to be a bit cruel to him and no one of them could gain a foothold.

"Can the money we have here buy asylum status?" Wu Hen asked.

"Well, money is still important, and it has even become more important. The only difference is that the stable currency is no longer gold, but Yuanyou." Wu Yingting nodded.

"What is Yuanyou?" Yu Yi asked.

"You can understand it this way. It is a kind of alien mineral deposit. Nuwa God's world needs this kind of mineral energy to maintain the existence of our world...Also, even though we all live in Nuwa God's world, it does not mean that we don't need to eat, rest, or suffer from birth, aging, sickness and death." Wu Yingting said.

"Just like a server, the server requires basic electricity." Wu Hen said at this time.

"Yes!" Wu Yingting nodded, "But you have to know that even if we are virtual, we still exist in reality. Our emotions, our wisdom, our memories, we are living individuals, and we are an inseparable family. The fact that Nuwa created such a world does not mean that we are a pile of useless data. Instead, it is guarding the fragile spark of our human civilization. You must remember that the soul is above everything else!"

"We are still independent individuals and independent souls!" Sister Yu Yu seemed to understand what her father wanted to express, and she signed seriously in sign language.

"Dad, Mom, Xiaoyu, actually I..." Wu Hen knew that there was no point in hiding it any longer.

He had to tell his father that he had actually secretly entered the alien wasteland and witnessed that world!

“Dongdongdong~~~~~~~”

But just as he was about to open his mouth, there was a knock on the gate.

Wu Hen was closest to the door, so he had to get up and open it.

When I opened the door, I saw a man and a woman.

The man was wearing a leather jacket, had a stylish beard and had a very solid physique.

The woman was bright and charming, with light makeup, delicate features and a pretty face. Her long hair was wrapped in a lavender triangular lace scarf. She looked fashionable and elegant, adding a unique charm to her already charming appearance.

Compared to the noisy and almost crazy crowd outside the house, the two men seemed particularly calm and peaceful.

"Hello, is this Mr. Wu Hen? How was your experience with the alien helmet that you applied for from our company?" asked the woman in the purple headscarf with a smile.

"Uh..." Wu Hen didn't know how to answer for a moment.

But the three people in the room heard this.

Especially Wu Yingting, he suddenly stood up from his chair, walked quickly to the door, and stared at Wu Hen with sharp eyes.

"You've been in there?" Wu Yingting's lips trembled slightly. "I was just about to confess to you, I have been in there, and..." Wu Hen scratched his head.

"And I performed quite well. I actually got half a Yuanyou the first time I entered." The woman in lavender and purple headscarf smiled brightly.

Wu Yingting opened his mouth wide, with disbelief in his eyes!
My own son obtained Yuanyou???
Only those who have experienced it personally know what price one has to pay to obtain Yuanyou!
There, human beings are really too fragile and too small!

"It seems that your family is quite adaptable. Wu Hen, would you mind talking to me alone for a few minutes?" asked the woman in the purple headscarf.

Wu Hen glanced at his father.

Father Wu Yingting could only nod at this time, his expression was very complicated, helpless, but also a little surprised and expectant!

"It's the room inside, that's your room, right?" said the woman with the purple headscarf.

"Yeah." Wu Hen nodded.

It's called a room, but in fact it can only fit a bed. From the big mansion to the autism room, Wu Hen was not used to it at first, but gradually got used to it, and sometimes even felt quite safe.

The woman in the purple headscarf didn't care about the dirty clothes on the bed and sat down on the edge of the bed naturally.

This made Wu Hen feel a little embarrassed, after all, there were usually balls of paper on boys' beds that they forgot to throw away...

Left behind when you blow your nose.

"We learned from the news sent by Nuwa that you have come into contact with a Yuanyou. You are very good. You are one of the very few people who obtained a Yuanyou for the first time entering the Desolate Dust." said the woman in the purple headscarf.

After hearing these words, Wu Hen understood that the other party was the group of people who had come into contact with the truth of the world earlier, and should have been walking in the alien wasteland for some time.

"It was just luck, luck." Wu Hen said modestly.

"One coin is one hundred thousand yuan, and half a coin is fifty thousand yuan. You should keep this money and use it to improve your family situation." The woman in fumigate and purple headscarf was also very direct and handed Wu Hen an envelope.

There was a thick stack of money inside.

Wu Hen accepted it and asked, "Since this world is virtual, what is the meaning of being poor or rich?"

“Believe me, everything here will become better because the white lie has been exposed. Everyone will cherish their current affluent, peaceful, nine-to-five life even more!” said the woman in the lavender headscarf.

"I don't quite understand. Since we all originated from the goddess Nuwa, why are some people still unfortunate? Some are born poor, some are born rich, some are born unfortunate, and some are like my sister who can't speak." Wu Hen asked.

"A tree has many leaves, but some leaves will get sick, some will be eaten by insects, some will wither prematurely, and some will wither before they have a chance to grow lush and green. Is this the original intention of a tree?" The woman in lavender and purple headscarf explained patiently.

"What I mean is, why did the goddess Nuwa sculpt you to be so outstanding? Well, so beautiful." Wu Hen said with a smile.

When the woman in lavender clothes and purple headscarf heard these words, she was stunned at first, and then a hint of shyness and pleasure flashed in her eyes.

She said, "You have such a sweet mouth. It seems that you are in good spirits. How about I give you another gift?"

As she spoke, the woman in lavender clothes and purple headscarf took out a very small glass box.

In the glass box, two colorful contact lenses are immersed.

"This is..." Wu Hen said in surprise.

"The latest brain-connection technology, when worn in the pupil, can allow you to enter the Other Dimension... Of course, this thing actually allows the individual consciousness nestled in the Nuwa God to wake up in reality and give you a body that can walk in the Other Dimension."

"It sounds like I'm logging into someone else's game character. Don't we have our own bodies in reality?" Wu Hen asked curiously.

"You've walked in there before. What do you think our mortality rate will be if we don't snuggle up to the Nuwa Divine Center in this way?" the woman in the purple headscarf asked.

"Indeed, the soul is above everything." Wu Hen nodded.

"I know you don't like playing other people's accounts. Don't worry, when you find the Nuwa God, you can awaken your true self." said the woman with purple headscarf.

"So what should I do next?" Wu Hen asked.

"Take your body in the other dimension and survive, and return to the Divine Center of Nuwa." said the woman in the purple headscarf.

Habitat?

It was probably the body in which I woke up in the cliff town.

"What about the original consciousness of the habitat? Will it disappear because of my implant?" Wu Hen now has a hundred thousand questions.

"Their consciousness has perished in the journey to the other dimension."

"The Lost?" For some reason, Wu Hen suddenly thought of the word mentioned by Mei Qingmuxiu!
