I live in a desert island property

Chapter 73 Return of the Drifting Bottle

The changes in the world situation are always faster than imagined.

The deciphering by the expert group was not smooth, and the changes among the people were also great.

In the blink of an eye, it has been a year since Wang Fumin and Lu Tuyu entered the army...

It only took a short period of ten months from being uncomfortable at the beginning to getting used to the new life gradually.

It has to be admitted that human beings are very receptive creatures. A year ago, they were still thinking about repaying mortgages, medical care, and education. Now most people have become brick movers. Even if they have complaints, they have to endure it and curse God.

"I thought they were here to shoot guns, but I didn't expect to escape the fate of moving bricks..."

Speaking of this, Lu Tuyu couldn't help complaining.

In such a long time, he has only touched the gun twice. Because of myopia, he practiced shooting once cracklingly, and missed half of the target. Therefore, he has no chance to practice anymore, and he works as a militiaman here every day... Commonly known as, reserve!

In order to maintain world peace, the number of active troops has rapidly expanded from 2 million last year to 20 million today, a tenfold increase.

Every country in the surrounding area is frantically recruiting troops, and all kinds of border frictions continue. Some medium-sized countries are already producing nuclear weapons. What international rules, who cares so much in this day and age? The cloud of the Third World War hangs over the heads of mankind.

However, it is quite easy to increase the number of soldiers rapidly, but the production of weapons and equipment is not so easy. With the collapse of the market and the paralysis of traffic, the production capacity of military factories is only about half of the peak level.

I don't have enough equipment, what should I do? Of course, let more people move bricks, work, dig trenches, dig shelters, anyway... there is too much physical work to do!

The militiamen are of course also soldiers, but the training is not so diligent, and the discipline is relatively loose. They do some hard work, and the allowance is barely enough to support the family.

"Stop complaining. If the company commander hears you complaining, you will be scolded again."

Wang Fumin, who was ten years older, was used to being oppressed by society after all, so he shrank his neck and said in a low voice, "When the time comes, you can work overtime by yourself, don't rely on me. Our old arms and legs can't afford to work overtime."

"Damn... Overtime is also overtime for ordinary people. People with superpowers never work overtime. We ordinary people won't have to work in the future."

Seeing that no one was around, Lu Tuyu complained indignantly: "I told you, the group without super powers will be pariahs in the future!"

"It's okay in China, and we can barely suppress this kind of public opinion. The contradictions abroad are getting bigger and bigger, and some extremist organizations have even emerged, claiming that superpowers are supreme, which is a manifestation of human evolution. When the end really comes, only superpowers Only those with abilities can survive..."

Wang Fumin's face turned pale: "You are crazy, how dare you climb over the wall to watch the Internet!"

Lu Tuyu shook his head and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Could it be that the overall quality of our Daxia people is higher than that of other regions? Is there any essential difference between people?" "Social trends born abroad, Don't we show up here?"

"I don't know if you have seen a foreign movie. Mutants and humans hate each other, and internal conflicts will erupt."

"Even if the superpowers in our world are not very powerful, they are not as devastating as in the movies. But the labels on the identity have already appeared. As long as the labels appear, the crowd will naturally gradually divide and slander each other."

"But now, the treatment of people with superpowers is indeed superior to others. No matter what good positions are, they are the first choice. The high-paying positions in the research institute cannot be held by ordinary people, and jealousy is useless; even those in the army Isn’t it easier for people with superpowers to be promoted than ordinary people?”

Wang Fumin was silent for a long while before choking out a sentence: "Isn't the salary of people with superpowers declining? The number is increasing, and they are not as scarce as before. The salary will naturally drop."

"No, no, I would rather hope that they are few in number, so rare that there are only a few dozen or a few hundred, rather than a large number of them."

Lu Tuyu clenched his fists and said, "They are small in number, they can't take up a few places, and won't affect my interests; if they are large in number, we ordinary people will be miserable."

"Just like your daughter, do you want him to be an ordinary person, or become a superpower?"

"After entering the mysterious area, there is a one-tenth chance of awakening the ability. If your daughter doesn't make it, she will be an inferior person for the rest of her life!"

"If your daughter is lucky enough to be on the wheel, and she becomes an upper-class person, will she maintain her class? Will she be treated the same as ordinary people? She won't!"

"And 90% of ordinary people, would they like to have an upper class on their heads? No, right. So, how to solve this contradiction?"

Wang Fumin opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Does he know about it? Of course he does.

But what to do...

no way.

After all, he is just an ordinary citizen whose edges and corners have been smoothed by society, without social status and ability.

Even if I know some things, I feel uncomfortable for a while, but let him speak out?

he won't go.

On the contrary, Lu Tuyu, who has been fighting for foreign public opinion for a long time, has no wife or children anyway, so he just wants to feel refreshed in his heart.

But it doesn't make much sense to be refreshing, and it can't change the world.

Suddenly, a ray of light flashed in the distance, as if a sixth sense rose from the heart.

[Your letter. 】

Wang Fumin's heart beat heavily, "The drifting bottle is back!"

"What are you whispering to each other! Hurry up and dig this ditch, and eat beef brisket stewed with potatoes tonight, if you want to eat, hurry up and work!" Seeing them chatting together, the company commander ran over with a shovel to urge them.

The company commander is a very good person, and he also takes good care of the brothers in the company. Apart from being strict, there is nothing to be picky about, and sometimes he will take the initiative to help carry the burden.

What is different is that the company commander is still a superpower, and his ability is not strong. His "dynamic vision", shooting and nerve response speed are more than one grade higher than ordinary people.

But because of this, he became the company commander...

When this thought came up, Wang Fumin suddenly felt a strange sense of discomfort from the depths of his heart.

He knew that this discomfort came from what Lu Tuyu said just now.

He is already 35 years old, even if he encounters a little injustice, he will swallow his anger. Where in the world is there a real Datong world?

But what about groups, zooming in on the entire human society, will superpowers be allowed to override ordinary people?

This is a big problem.

The great momentum of the times, like the Yangtze River, is rushing eastward.

In the mysterious area, the demise of 13 teams was mostly due to internal strife.

Throughout history, in the process of the destruction of all dynasties, a large part of the reasons are always internal factors.

This time, again... no exceptions!

...

...

Special affairs processing department, a scientific and technological exchange meeting.

Li Xianfeng is having a video conversation with Professor Peter Greer, the chairman of the American Society for Paranormal Research and a parapsychologist at Harvard University.

"Have you deciphered the slate?"

"The grammatical system of a foreign civilization is very different from any human language. It is very difficult. Many of the new concepts and problems are not available on our side."

"Oh, it would be great if Zhang could dig more treasures. So many people are waiting for him to dig treasures." Professor Peter laughed. Just jumping back and forth like this, tossing and turning like a grasshopper.”

"How can there be so many intact things in the water? The things on land are so-so. Unfortunately, he can't go to the rest of the area."

There is great terror on the isolated island!

A super terror capable of exterminating a civilization!

Everyone knew this well, so they didn't urge Lao Zhang through the satellite broadcast.

As the only human being, if the graveyard burps, they might be sent to the electric chair by the angry human executives!

After chatting for a few words, everyone began to discuss business.

Peter Greer was the first to throw a brick to attract jade: "As the mysterious areas continue to occupy the four oceans, we believe that the concentration of the earth's 'spirit' is rising sharply, and the proportion of naturally born superpowers has reached 1 in 10,000. More than a hundred times that at the beginning."

"In other words, out of 100 million people, there are 10,000 people with superpowers."

"In the end, the spiritual density of the earth will be exactly the same as that of the mysterious area, and one tenth of the people will be born with superpowers."

"The other 90% of the population don't have innate abilities... They should be ordinary people all their lives. Superpowers are closely related to the soul and body. In a short period of time, it is impossible for ordinary people to learn abilities for nothing."

"That's right, you still have to keep your feet on the ground. It's too difficult to pursue the highest difficulty from the beginning."

The scientific researchers in the room are all discussing the newly born special ability users. With the improvement of "spiritual energy", in addition to physical ability users, some rarer ability users finally appeared!

For example, hypnosis.

This ancient industry is usually identified as a liar, or simply appeared in some 18 banned movies.

But now, a corresponding superpower really appeared—a hypnotist!

Another example is "Life Sharing".

People with this healing ability can share their "vitality" with the rest of the wounded, speed up the healing of wounds and diseases, even AIDS and cancer can be cured.

The mechanism is unknown.

Of course, the consequence of doing so is that it will bring a more serious risk of premature aging to the person concerned. Therefore, this ability person is regarded as a national treasure and protected.

Another foreign expert said in a communication conference: "Currently there is no instrument that can detect the 'spirit' in the air. Whether it is infrared light, ultraviolet light or X-rays, there is no progress. It seems to exist in other places. A dimension is a special idealistic phenomenon."
