(PS: I have something to inform you. After the 30,000-word explosion yesterday, all the saved manuscripts were gone. I now write four chapters every day, about 12,000 to 13,000 words, but this is too dangerous. If I don’t save the manuscript, Afraid of any accidents, so starting from the 11th today and ending on the 16th, we will update three times a day. I saved some manuscripts, and then the outbreak continued, that is, the alliance leader will continue to update the outbreak from the 17th to avoid it. I hope everyone will understand why I stopped updating due to an accident. Thank you all for supporting me these days.)

"What we want is really simple."

Lu Yuanming was sitting in a teahouse not far from the Hall of Heroes. Opposite him were the youngest commander Bai Ye, Major General Wu Zhenhua, Zhang Heng's sisters Zhang Jiangjia, Lu Yuanmin, and Tang Zhe'an's sister Tang Xi. , they were drinking tea and chatting here, and at the same time watching the first batch of heroic spirits appear to receive their relatives.

Zhang Jiangjia took a sip of tea, his eyes brightened and said, "The legendary Da Hongpao?"

Bai Ye smiled and said: "Yes, there are still some. They are indeed special offerings. Miss Zhang can take two liang back for Zhang Heng to taste later."

Zhang Jiangjia said politely, then acquiesced, and then she continued: "Actually, it's just food, clothing, and hope, it's that simple."

The others were listening, Bai Ye sighed and said: "This is actually the biggest extravagant wish. We have exhausted all our efforts to have enough food and clothing, and that hope... hope is the most difficult thing to realize. Fifty years ago, people wanted to have enough to eat, and we did it. Forty years ago, they wanted to wear warm clothes, and we did it. Thirty years ago, they wanted everyone to receive equal compulsory education, and we did it. And then Houses, bigger houses, wages, more wages, people’s hopes are actually desires, and these are the greatest luxuries.”

Zhang Jiangjia was speechless, but Lu Yuanming's life and death moments and experience growth in the past two years, he said: "But this is what you should do, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight first, isn't it? "

Bai Ye nodded and laughed. He also took a sip of tea and said, "Isn't this what you want to do now?"

Lu Yuanming was silent.

On the other side, more than three hundred people stood in the square.

This is the first time that the Hall of Valor is open to the public. The opening hours are 72 hours, and each round of relative reception lasts for 24 hours. There are three rounds in total. A total of 1,026 people will be received. There are four hundred and three families, some families have four or five relatives, some families have only one relative, and some even have no relatives alive.

In more than a year, the Hall of Heroes automatically collected 403 heroic spirits, including 243 military personnel, 120 ordinary staff, and the rest were middle and lower-level managers and extreme personnel. A small number of three top managers and one dignitary.

Those who arrived on the first day were all relatives of ordinary workers, including old and young, with their families and families. Most of them were in tears, and a few of them had calm expressions, but the excitement deep in their eyes was still there. It can't be hidden no matter what.

Farewell of life and death...

This is the inevitable regret and great horror that humans have had since the birth of intelligence.

This is actually what the great terror between life and death is about. Rather than fear of death itself, it is better to say that it is the fear of nothing after death.

Has my career been successful?

Has my dream come true?

Are my family members well?

Have my computer network traces been cleaned up...

In short, the fear of death itself actually comes more from the confusion and huge unknown of life, separation and death.

But the appearance of the Hall of Heroes saved this biggest regret!

Again, the emergence of the Hall of Heroes and its huge influence cannot be overestimated. Even if only the selected ones can become Heroic Spirits, perhaps it is because of this situation. , there is no power interference, no money factors, and no human relationships, just clean and neat restrictions. If you achieve it, you will be a heroic spirit. If you fail to achieve it, you will not be able to become a heroic spirit. On the contrary, it is like this, and the people really feel at ease and take it for granted. At the same time, They will also pursue and work harder in the direction of becoming heroic spirits.

This has played a huge role in guiding the progress of the entire human society!

Lu Yuanming looked at the hundreds of relatives of the heroic spirits from a distance, and then looked at the reporters who were ten times more in number, and the onlookers who were hundreds of times more in number, and then he turned to look at Bai Ye Said: "This is also the reason why I don't recommend establishing the Heroic Spirit Law... The law is nothing more than human feelings, but in life and death, which should be absolutely fair, human feelings absolutely cannot exist, let alone human feelings, except in an absolute sense. All other personal affairs will turn this Hall of Valor into a stinky toilet, or a dictator's slaughterhouse... What's more, every time I wake up from sleep a hundred times, I have twenty extra places. This is already somewhat taboo.”

Bai Ye was not suitable to speak at this time. His identity and level of representation were not suitable for speaking, so he just smiled and drank tea. As a major general, Wu Zhenhua did not have this taboo. He immediately said: "Mr. What he said is not complete. Yes, we are human beings after all, not cold numbers or absolutely perfect laws of order. If there is no Hall of Valor, of course we will not talk about it, but with the Hall of Valor, there must be some peerless people with extremely high and outstanding abilities, but they just If you don’t meet the standard of a heroic spirit, after all, it’s impossible for everyone to have the same outlook on things.”

"If there is no ascending step, it's okay. If there is and their ascending step is completely blocked, it will cause big problems, especially since we have entered the deep space of the universe, and such people have no hope. , no one can imagine what kind of crazy things they will do, but Mr.’s twenty quotas solved the problem immediately, and if the heroes of their time become heroes, will they still dare to betray humanity?"

Lu Yuanming was stunned for a moment. He had never expected to think in this direction. At this time, when he thought about it carefully, he also thought of the recent think tank professor's statement that those who are capable will rise to the top. He nodded and admitted: "Yes. , this is indeed a bit too extreme on my part, so now it’s just right, with both the absoluteness of Heroic Spirit selection and the adjustment mechanism of the twenty free places I have... it’s really good.”

At this time, there was some commotion among the families of the heroic spirits waiting in the square. When they arrived at 12 noon, as the bell rang, an empty plain suddenly appeared in front of many family members where the building should have been. This plain looked like It is very wide and huge, but it only occupies a small area in front of the building where the Hall of Valor is located.

Everyone was stunned. The surrounding maintenance staff immediately stepped forward to tell them something. While these family members were still hesitating, they saw dozens of people running out from the plain. They were crying and laughing and waving to the outside. Immediately, these family members were all stunned. Boiling, they began to trot forward, and the team became crowded. Fortunately, they walked directly into this space, and then hugged their dead relatives.

Immediately, all the reporters started taking photos and filming, and some reporters began to say something excitedly to the camera. They were shocked, God, God, or all kinds of chicken soup articles began to be released quickly.

However, the heroic spirits and their families did not care about them at all. Instead, they were immersed in the feelings of their relatives, each recounting their experiences with each other during this period, all kinds of sadness and excitement.

Liu Zhipeng looked at his high school son, his wife who was crying, and then his old mother. He couldn't hold back the tears in his eyes, but as a man, he resisted the excitement and just Holding her son in her arms and supporting her old mother, she said to her daughter-in-law: "Let's go and show you where I live. Hey, I've been working so hard all my life that I haven't lived in a single-family house yet, but now I do, come on." Come on, come on, I got you a big life-size model of Gundam, let’s go!”

As they spoke, they walked to somewhere on the plain, and a new town had been built on the plain. The various buildings inside could be described as bizarre. After all, most of the heroic spirits in the past year or so were not only soldiers. The rest are mostly civil servants...

There are also a few people who go to the mountains on the other side of the plain, and most of them are heroic spirits from the military system.

Hundreds of relatives entered. Everyone outside, as well as the relatives of the heroic spirits scheduled for the second and third days, all watched eagerly. At this time, a reporter hurried to find the venue organization. personnel, and then asked to enter the Hall of Valor for interviews. This is a major event for all mankind, and they must report the authenticity of it.

This is actually what many upper-level officials are worried about. They are not only afraid that outsiders will think that the Hall of Valor is false, but they themselves are also afraid that the Hall of Valor is false. However, now so much evidence has shown that the Hall of Valor is true, especially at their level. A high-ranking person has indeed become a Heroic Spirit, and relying on their level and status, they often talk to the old man of the same level, so they have no doubt about it.

At this time, the reporters' requests came out. The organizers of the venue did not dare to neglect and immediately reported to the top. Then the news went from the middle to the top, and from the top to the top. The opinions at the top were quickly unified, and a small number of reporters and media could be selected. After entering it, this opinion was passed to Lu Yuanming.

Lu Yuanming thought for a while and said: "Then one media from each country, a total of five media can enter for interviews, but they are not allowed to forcibly disturb the heroic spirits reunited today. This is an iron rule, let the military heroic spirits inside follow. Guard, and also supervise their interviews."

The people around were stunned for a moment, and everyone looked at Bai Ye. Bai Ye said with a smile: "That's right, there are only five media, let's go."

The staff quickly left.

Lu Yuanming said in confusion: "Wait a minute, what did I say wrong?"

"It's nothing, haha, it's indeed five countries." Bai Ye said with a smile.

Lu Yuanming was a little confused. He thought for a long time and couldn't figure out what he said wrong. After a long time, he stood up and said: "Then I have to prepare to go down. It's still the same rule, three to ten days, uh... this It may be slower, three to fifteen days, no more than twenty days at most."

Bai Ye also stood up and said seriously: "So fast? But it's okay. There's nothing important recently. The Hall of Heroes seems to be operating normally. So Comrade Lu, be careful when you go down. Your safety is not just a matter of concern. It’s time for you to be alone.”

"I understand."

Lu Yuanming waved his hand and walked out of the gate, then got into a vehicle and left directly.

It's time to go down.

Lu Yuanming thought silently.

The second great collapse... has begun!
