Chapter 515 Visit
Pei Yun has been in K City for so many years, but has never seriously visited K City. At this moment, she and Chu Zewen did not let anyone else accompany them. The two of them took the city's newly built skytrain to the city center of K City in a low-key manner.
Looking at the rebuilt skyscrapers around her, the people coming and going, all the ordinary people had returned to their stable lives before the apocalypse, her mind flashed back to the time she first left the base and sneaked into K City more than a decade ago: the cracked scorched earth, the collapsed ruins of the skyscrapers, the strange beasts lurking everywhere...
She had seen Old White and Xu Liu wearing heavy protective clothing and helmets, laboriously carrying food to the base. Throughout the day, Xu Liu kept complaining that his clothes were all wet, while Old White raised his trembling hands to wipe the sweat from his face.
Looking at this scene that seems like a prosperous age, Pei Yun sighed in his heart and showed a happy smile on his face.
After a while, Chu Zewen brought her to a school. He called the principal, and the two of them entered the school smoothly...
"...This school is for people with special abilities. Its predecessor was the novice training camp at the Third Base. Later, people with special abilities from various bases also entered the training camp to study. A few years ago, the top management decided to establish a school for people with special abilities here..."
Chu Zewen led Pei Yun on a tour of the campus, introducing the students. "Speaking of which, the seniors taught batches of students back then. There are portraits of them in the corridors of the teaching buildings..."
Sure enough, Pei Yun saw his own portrait in the corridor of the first-floor teaching building. In the painting, he was dressed in flowing clothes, holding a spiritual sword in front of him, and nine golden gates towered above his head...
There is an introduction below the portrait, calling her the founder. Her portrait is ranked first, and the second is Chu Zewen.
"Everyone remembers what our seniors said in the classroom back then—the greater the power, the greater the responsibility. The power we possess is to protect the weak, not to use it to oppress ordinary people..."
Chu Zewen pointed to the regulations and rules listed in the center of the teaching building. "So when we first established this school, the first rule was that people with special abilities must not harm ordinary people."
Pei Yun smiled and praised, "...It seems that I did not choose the wrong person back then. You have done a great job and lived up to Senior Jidao's expectations..."
The two of them toured the school and were about to leave when they ran into an acquaintance.
"...Senior Pei?!" Wan Bei was holding a stack of test papers. She was a little bit incredulous when she saw Pei Yun and the others. Only when they got closer did she confirm her identity. She exclaimed in surprise, "Chief Chu, Senior Pei, why are you here at school?"
Pei Yun's lips curled up, and he even touched Wan Bei's head like he did when she was a child. He smiled with the kindness of an elder and said, "Why are you here? I heard from your mother that you graduated, didn't you?"
"I'm staying at school..." Wan Bei had lived in Pei Yun's villa for a few years when she was a child. She knew that Senior Pei was a powerful figure that everyone feared, but in fact he was very kind and approachable. She had taken many elixirs fed by him over the years. "Senior, are you here to visit the school? I'll show you around..."
"...Chu Zewen and I have seen almost the same..."
Wan Bei's voice immediately attracted the attention of the people around them, and many students and teachers looked in their direction.
This was incredible! I actually saw a great figure hanging in the corridor of the teaching building!
Some brave students gathered around: "Teacher Wan, this is... Senior Pei and Chief Chu?!"
"Oh my god! I actually met the legendary figure!"
"... Pei, Senior Pei, could you sign an autograph for me?"
"Teacher Pei, Chief Chu, can you take a photo with me?"
Pei Yun and Chu Zewen were soon surrounded by crowds of people, all vying to see these two legendary gods.
Chu Zewen had originally told the principal that they were just going to keep a low profile and not disturb anyone, and that he wasn't needed to receive them. Now, the principal had no choice but to step in and disperse the crowd...
Upon learning that Pei Yun was about to leave Yuanxing, everyone present looked at Pei Yun's departing back and bowed solemnly.
The skills practiced by all the superpowers on Yuanxing come from Pei Yun. Even Chu Zewen, the most powerful person on Yuanxing today, is far from being able to create his own skills. Of course, Chu Zewen also has the skills taught by Jidao Patriarch in secret, but the skills practiced by others are all given to them by Pei Yun. It can be said that Pei Yun is their ancestor.
Pei Yun was quite moved by this and turned around to return the greeting solemnly...
After leaving school, they came to the largest hospital in K City.
"Senior, you gave those patients elixirs back then. Those patients at the Third Base were cured thanks to your elixirs. Later, you provided the research institute with various medicinal plants. After years of research, there are now several targeted drugs on the market, which have greatly extended the lifespan of ordinary people who suffer from radiation-related illnesses..."
Chu Zewen said, "...This hospital not only has ordinary people, but also people with special abilities. Every year, the Alliance arranges for a group of healing people with special abilities to go to the ordinary hospital for internship..."
Pei Yun nodded, looking at the patients and their families coming and going, and couldn't help but sigh: "All living things suffer."
He added, "After all, there are only a few people with special abilities on Origin Star. Ninety-nine percent of them are ordinary people. These ordinary people are the true hope of Origin Star..."
"...Senior Pei?" A hesitant voice sounded not far away.
The two looked over and saw a young man in a white coat approaching. Upon seeing Pei Yun's face, the man smiled shyly and happily: "Senior Pei, why are you here?"
"It's Zhang Mo! Long time no see. How is Director Zhang?"
Pei Yun greeted him with a smile. The man in front of him was the son of Director Zhang, whom Pei Yun and Xu Liu had visited together that year. In the blink of an eye, he had grown up and became a doctor.
"My dad's still as restless as ever..." Zhang Mo said with a smile, "He went to Uncle Xu's house for a drink a few days ago! Senior Pei, Chief Chu, is there anything you need to take care of at the hospital?"
"No, I'm leaving Yuanxing soon, so I wanted to take a look around before I leave."
Zhang Mo paused, his face showing reluctance: "My dad still keeps talking about you! He said he hopes to have the chance to thank you again. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have already..."
"When I first arrived at the base, Director Zhang helped me a lot. Without him, I would not have been able to join the third base. I will go to Xu Liu's place in the evening. If you are free, you can come and have a reunion dinner with us..." Pei Yun patted his shoulder and said.
"Then I'll tell my parents that we'll meet at Uncle Xu's house tonight..."
"it is good."
Everyone in the hospital was busy. Pei Yun and Chu Zewen did not disturb the dean and others. They came and left quietly.
After leaving the hospital, Chu Zewen took Pei Yun to a children's welfare home. At this time, he took out the magic weapon, the Book of Life, and Xu Jidao's small figure appeared on the Book of Life. He looked around the welfare home in a daze, as if he was lost in memories.
Chu Zewen said slowly: "...I asked my parents, and the dean you mentioned, teacher, should be my great-uncle Chu Mingyu. However, my great-uncle never married, and his branch has no descendants..."
Xu Jidao said nothing, and there was no surprise on his face. Pei Yun and the others saw that although he didn't speak, he seemed to be immersed in extreme sadness.
Xu Jidao stared blankly at the children playing in the garden, and seemed to see through time and see his young self and Chu Mingyu.
Pei Yun and Chu Zewen said, "I remembered that I still have billions of star coins on my card..."
This money was the points Pei Yun earned when he hunted exotic beasts. Later, the points were exchanged for Yuanxing’s currency.
"After I left, 70% of the money on the card was donated to the welfare home, and the remaining 30% was transferred to the cards of He Ying and the other two."
