The empress didn't care too much about this. After all, this guy had been saying that this place and that place were familiar since the beginning, but in the end he couldn't remember anything.

Soon, the Topaz Starship made a rare sound like wind blowing through bamboo leaves.

This was the first time the empress knew that the ship could make sounds.

The Topaz Star Boat seemed to have sensed something and flew into the air. The sound that spread was very pleasant to hear.

The bright moon, the stars, a flying ship, and the sound of wind blowing through the bamboo forest are like a fairy tale.

Not long after, an even more dreamy scene appeared.

The people on the boat cried out in surprise, and the empress, who was resting with her eyes closed, opened her eyes.

Below, hundreds of topaz boats broke through the water and flew upwards like swimming fish.

They wagged their tails, making the sound of wind blowing through the bamboo forest, and looked very happy.

For a moment, the bright moon, the numerous stars, and the fleets of spaceships...

This scene can be painted.

Chapter 67: Hope in Hunger

Gu Jiu and this group of women stayed in this city waiting for the empress, and their lives became completely relaxed.

However, due to the attacks that occurred a few days ago, everyone has become more vigilant, and there are always people on guard at the periphery.

While on guard, they would occasionally see the people who had fled the city before, who were cautious and afraid to approach several miles away.

It can be seen that these people fled in too much haste and now want to go back to the city to get some things, but they are very afraid of Gu Jiu and others.

These people were said to be "desperate" to get here. After all, according to rumors, Gu Jiu and his companions were evil demons with many mouths.

After several members on guard reported the situation, Gu Jiu signaled not to worry about it.

It was impossible to dispel the fears and doubts of these ordinary people in a short period of time, so he didn't think about making excuses, but just let everything take its course.

They won't stop those who dare to come, but they can't catch those who don't dare to come.

Under such circumstances, Gu Jiu was the one who lived the most comfortable life.

The weather here is very good. All he needs to do every day is bask in the sun and joke around with Su Ying, Gu Xiaoxiao and others. It seems as if he has returned to the most beautiful and lazy time in the past.

If the house here wasn't so fragile due to the previous vibration, he would even want to do some exercises with Xiao Yingying at night that would be beneficial to his physical and mental health.

But everyone was still a little worried, because if the empress could not find a large number of topaz star ships, it would be a huge problem to transport so many people from the Tang Kingdom.

Initially they thought there was still a lot of time and they could take it slowly, but now the situation in the Tang State is getting worse and worse, and they don’t know how long those people up there can hold on.

Speaking of the above, everyone has to admit that this is a very magical thing.

Who would have thought that they could arrive at this paradise in such a way.

It turns out that the ideal home they have been looking for is right below the Tang Kingdom?

A month passed in a flash. Although life here was comfortable, everyone couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

For example, Gu Xiaoxiao was a little worried about her family members in the Sword Sect.

The Yunshan Sword Sect is protected by a large formation, but it is not absolutely safe.

Gu Jiu was lying on the roof, with the scattered sunlight shining on him. He looked very lazy, like a cat.

Man proposes, God disposes.

He had already discussed with the empress that if there was no result after two months, they would split their forces into two groups.

Continue to search for the Topaz Star Boat and the method of casting the Topaz Star Boat here, and then go back up to recover the losses as much as possible.

The current situation of the Tang State is no longer suitable for dispersing its military forces in this way.

People need to migrate to Miaojiang. If the Topaz Starship incident requires a long-term battle, they will build a huge city in Miaojiang.

The so-called giant city is a city with the strongest power that gathers the population together.

There may be millions or even tens of millions of people surviving in this city, and they will be the continuation of the human race.

It is not easy to build such a city, and it will be difficult to manage.

Of course, this should be the worst-case scenario.

When it comes to the Topaz Starship, Gu Jiu is a natural optimist.

In fact, optimists don't seem to have too bad luck.

On this day, under the azure sky, countless large yellow ships formed a line and soared from the sky. The scene looked like a miracle.

This scene was so shocking that this group of people remembered it clearly many years later.

They screamed with excitement, and some even burst into tears.

In fact, sometimes when people look back on their lives, having such scenes to recall is enough.

The sound of the Topaz Star Boat, like the wind blowing through the bamboo forest, rang out one after another, forming a very pleasant song.

Xiao Huang was at the front, like a general leading an army of thousands.

The empress stood at the bow of the ship, looking like she was dominating the world.

Gu Jiu looked at the woman at the bow and smiled inwardly, "You still say you don't want to be emperor?"

Both of them saw each other, and almost at the same time they gave each other a bright smile.

The situation is really getting better.

The topaz starships were singing, and they were very satisfied and excited about having the opportunity to soar in the sky.

Their original purpose was to soar between heaven and earth and to save the human beings once protected by immortals and Buddhas, but for various reasons, they have never been able to do so.

For so many years, they have been hiding like rats in the gutter, unable to see the light of day. It would be a lie to say that they are not wronged.

Now, they have finally got such an opportunity.

After seeing Gu Jiu and his team, these large ships seemed very excited and kept spinning in the sky like a huge school of fish.

Not even sunlight could penetrate the sky above the entire city.

Next to Xiao Huang was a starship of about the same size as him.

This topaz starship is naturally the leader of this group of starships, the one that had fought with King Faro underwater before.

Xiao Huang can be considered a veteran among this group of ships, but it has been wandering outside for hundreds of years and almost perished, resulting in memory loss. However, the memories of these ships are intact.

Its memory of its companions is incomplete, but its companions remember it clearly.

So that night, there was a scene of thousands of ships sailing together to the bright moon over the vast ocean.

When Xiao Huang told them that King Faro had been killed by the Empress, all the ships refused to believe it. After all, they were almost destroyed because of King Faro.

If it weren't for the Topaz Nest guarding them, they might have been gone.

When the empress showed her skills and split the entire huge lake into two halves with sword energy, the ships still believed.

Not only because the empress is strong enough, but also because they feel a sense of intimacy.

They hadn't seen this style of "magic" in a long time since the invasion of King Faroe.

So, this group of topaz star ships followed the empress, coming in a mighty and overwhelming force, as magnificent as a miracle.

In this world, immortals and Buddhas have disappeared. After seeing this scene, it was the first time that everyone felt that they themselves could be gods.

In other words, they can control their own destiny.

The confidence we have when we are young is often built up from a victory or a picture.

Even those old guys who had lived for a long time and were afraid of death were trembling with excitement at this moment. This was a feeling they had never experienced before.

After two days of rest, the entire fleet set off.

A hundred people were left here to garrison, led by Liu Wan, while the rest all followed back to the Tang Dynasty to prepare for the huge migration.

Gu Jiu originally wanted to stay here and continue resting, but when he thought about his family not being able to come over yet, he decided to go back with them.

The long fleet entered the void. Fearing that the spatial turbulence would cause problems, Gu Jiu and Liu Wan went one after another to eliminate the spatial turbulence.

Ten days later, Gu Jiu and others returned to Miaojiang, feeling as if they were in another world.

They eventually came back.

This victory was not easy to come by, so everyone held a victory carnival in the academy.

The huge ship parked outside looked like a vast ocean, the scene was spectacular and magical.

There are about tens of thousands of these topaz star ships, some large and some small, but their carrying capacity is sufficient.

The next task is to send boats to pick up people.

People can still migrate to areas near Miaojiang on their own, while areas farther away from Miaojiang need people to pick them up.

Because this long road is not peaceful, and with the walking speed of ordinary people, it is unknown how long it will take, and they may be eaten by a big ghost halfway.

It didn't take long before masters from all the major and minor sects, along with the army ruled by the empress, arrived in Miaojiang.

Soon, the huge fleet dispersed and went to the designated location to pick up people.

Due to the shortage of manpower, even Gu Jiu had to become the captain.

Thinking about loading those groups of people into the boat, which would be a scene comparable to the Spring Festival travel rush, Gu Jiu felt dizzy, but there was nothing he could do.

The empress brainwashed him many times, telling him that he could retire after completing this task. He had also promised her that he would not leave until the migration was completed, so he had no choice but to go ahead with it.

Fortunately, these topaz star boats that followed along had never been injured or eroded by evil spirits because they had been living in the Sea of ​​Bitterness. Therefore, their brains were much better than Xiao Huang's, and communication was easy.

Gu Jiu's destination was the Yanyang City area, and there were twenty ships following him.

The first stop he wanted to go was Linshui Town, his birthplace.

Although he hadn't been back for many years, and that remote town might have already been in trouble in such an environment, Gu Jiu still wanted to go there first.

He hoped the town was alright and the townspeople were alright.

His back was not good in those years, so he slept most of the time and had few friends in the town, but he still had feelings for the town.

Just like people’s feelings towards their hometown.

Your friends and relatives may no longer be there, and you may have already settled down somewhere else, but there is always a place in your heart for that person.

Even though it is old and backward, and the people living in it are from two different worlds from you, it is still an indispensable memory for you.

Even this memory can never be returned.

As we traveled along the way, we found that many towns along the way were left with only houses covered with cobwebs, and no one was left.

If the Tang Dynasty were compared to a person, then this person would be considered terminally ill.

The vitality of this world is constantly fading and inevitably declining.

During the journey, the Topaz Star Boat even devoured no less than a hundred ghosts, big and small, which made Gu Jiu even have the illusion of walking in the Taiyin Realm.

If the situation continues to deteriorate, the Tang Kingdom will become the next Taiyin Realm or even the Yin World.

When the Topaz Starship was traveling at full speed, the three survivors in the Gu residence in Linshui Town had reached the most desperate moment.

The Li Mei sisters and Widow Zhao lay side by side on the rattan chair, looking extremely thin.

They had not eaten for almost a month and could only drink water every day, and sometimes they would eat some wild grass boiled in water.

The townspeople outside have all turned into ghosts, but they have not lost their intelligence. They had already moved all the food nearby, hoping to starve them to death.

When they found themselves surrounded by ghosts and even the food in the neighboring house was gone, the three of them couldn't help but hug each other and burst into tears.

They once risked their lives by stealing food from their neighbors, but now it seemed that there was no point in taking such risks.

Now, in order to avoid wasting energy, the three of them basically just lie down every day.

Widow Zhao's eyes were sunken from hunger. She said weakly, "My two sisters, I'm afraid I'm dying. If you want to live, just drink my blood and eat my flesh while I still have some."

Li Mei immediately shook her head and said, "Sister Zhao, please stop saying such things. We are not those people out there. How can we eat human flesh and blood? The three of us have been through thick and thin together. If God wants to kill us, we will just wait for God to take us away."

On the other side, Li Luo couldn't help crying again, choking with sobs, "Sister, Sister Zhao, let's just hang ourselves. No one will come to save us. Instead of suffering here, it's better to end our lives. If it goes on for a few more days, I'm afraid we won't even have the energy to commit suicide."

Her words were filled with sadness and despair.

Yes, there were only three of them alive in this town. The area outside the town was probably a dead place. How could anyone come to save them?
