Traveling through time and space to achieve a well-off life with your family

Cheng Mo sat in the shed with the group of orcs, talking about recent events. At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly glowed with a strange red light, and the lightning became more frequent and dense. Cheng Mo couldn't help but stand up and stare at this strange sky, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart gradually increased.

"Have you ever encountered this situation before?" Cheng Mo turned and asked the orcs.

However, the orcs shook their heads in bewilderment. In fact, they had never seen such a sight before: black and red clouds interweaving, lightning raging in the clouds, and fierce winds that were getting stronger and stronger.

"City... City Lord, did you... did you hear anything..." Suddenly, an orc stumbled up to Cheng Mo and asked tremblingly.

"Hmm?" Cheng Mo looked at the orc doubtfully, and then listened attentively. There seemed to be a barely perceptible cry in the wind, sad and mournful, creepy.

"Someone is crying?" Cheng Mo murmured uncertainly.

"Is there? Why didn't I hear it? Is it the sound of the wind?" another orc guessed hesitantly.

"Is it, is there a ghost?" The trembling orc, tightly grasping the corner of the orc's clothes next to him, asked in a trembling voice.

"What have you been watching recently, you guy? You even made up a story about ghosts!" The orc found it a little funny and put his hand on the frightened orc's shoulder, laughing.

"Woo woo - I recently read a ghost story. I don't know who wrote it, but it's really scary!" The frightened orc tried to curl himself up into a ball, trying to make himself feel safer.

"Oh my! Brave orcs are not afraid of ghosts! Don't be so timid!" The other orcs smiled and patted the frightened orc's shoulders gently, trying to comfort him.

However, Cheng Mo did not join in the orcs' laughter and playfulness. He raised his head with concern, stared at the sky, then turned to look at the orcs who were still playing, and said in a deep voice: "I'd better go to the city gate to check the situation first. You should also be more careful." The orcs nodded to show that they understood, and Cheng Mo quickened his pace and left quickly in the direction of the city gate...

Because of the abnormal celestial phenomenon, the entire Qiming City was in a state of noise and commotion. The orcs in the city had no sleep at all. Every household opened their doors and the orcs all stood on the streets, talking to each other anxiously. When they saw Cheng Mo, they gathered around him and asked him what happened.

Cheng Mo tried hard to calm himself down and comforted them softly, "It's not clear yet. Everyone go back to the house first. Try to stay alert at night and it's best not to go out." The orcs nodded repeatedly after hearing this and returned to their homes, but they did not rest peacefully. Instead, they sat in the room and looked at the sky worriedly.

When Cheng Mo arrived at the city gate, he found that Hen Yi and Xiong Wu had been waiting there. Seeing Cheng Mo coming, Hen Yi explained the current situation to Cheng Mo: "City Lord, since the strange weather appeared, many orcs claimed to have heard a faint crying sound. Especially the old orcs and cubs, they heard it more clearly. Even many cubs said that these crying sounds were very familiar, but they couldn't remember whose voice it was."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Mo lowered his head and pondered: "Familiar crying? Are only the cubs saying this?"

Hen Yi shook his head slowly, a solemn look on his face: "It's not just those cubs, some of them claim..." At this point, Hen Yi raised his head and stared at Cheng Mo, seeming a little hesitant. Then, he made a gesture of invitation to Cheng Mo and took Cheng Mo to a secluded corner.

Cheng Mo looked at Hen Yi in confusion, not understanding why he was so mysterious. Hen Yi looked around and confirmed that there was no one else. He leaned close to Cheng Mo's ear and said in a low voice, "The cubs just said that the cries sounded familiar, but I think this sound is like... like the cries of the cubs who were brutally killed by the black-robed man..."

Cheng Mo's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked up at Hen Yi in astonishment: "You! How could you..." Cheng Mo's voice trembled with shock, but Hen Yi quickly shook his head and motioned him to keep quiet. Cheng Mo quickly covered his mouth with his hands, his eyes full of confusion and puzzlement.

Hen Yi explained softly, "I just remembered it too. I don't know why I lost my previous memories. Why did everyone forget Ban Mu and Cheng Lingqu? It's as if everyone's memory has been modified by someone, but what I know is that you definitely still remember Ban Mu and Cheng Lingqu. But what I want to tell you now is that I felt the original aura from this vision. I have a strong hunch that what happened this time may be related to the man in black robe in some way."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Mo nodded with a heavy face. He already had the answer in his mind. It must be those damn aliens again!

"Hen Yi, I can't tell you the reasons right now. I will explain them to you after this is over. Now you lead a team of men to guard the city gate and keep a close eye on the movements of all strangers. Don't let anyone come in or out at will. I will go to various places in the city to count the number of people and supplies and notify everyone to stay at home." Before he finished speaking, Cheng Mo turned around and jumped off the city wall without hesitation.

Holding an umbrella, he walked firmly and quickly, knocking on doors and counting, constantly reminding everyone to prepare enough food and not to go out easily. However, just as he ran through the whole city, he heard a deafening thunder in the sky, followed by a downpour of rain. Cheng Mo didn't even have time to open his umbrella, and in the blink of an eye he was soaked.

Despite this, Cheng Mo still gritted his teeth and ran towards home in the wind and rain. But the rain was too fierce, like a river bursting its banks, making it difficult for him to move. After only two steps, Cheng Mo was knocked to the ground by the heavy rain. The cold rain mercilessly hit his back, causing unbearable pain. Cheng Mo could only struggle to stand up again.

"City Lord!" Xiongtai, who had been worried and came out to look for him, happened to witness the miserable state of Cheng Mo lying in the water. He was terrified and rushed forward to help him up.

"I'm fine..." After being helped up, Cheng Mo slowly sat down under the eaves. He looked at the gradually rising rain water in front of him, and a feeling of anxiety rose in his heart.

"Oh no! The rain is too heavy. If it continues like this, I'm afraid the whole city will be flooded!" Cheng Mo shouted anxiously.
