Liu Jianwen felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his throat, rendering him speechless.

"Little Yu, I, I don't want to…" The atmosphere was abnormally heavy. Liu Jianwen couldn't even finish a sentence.

In the end, he lowered his head again.

Sigh…

A muffled sigh.

Bitterness, regret, doubt, conflict, lingering fear…

All kinds of emotions mixed together, making him seem to have lost his vitality.

After a while, Li Yu punched Liu Jianwen's shoulder heavily.

He said honestly, "Uncle, there's still me! Let's protect our family together! We have to survive in this apocalyptic world!"

Hearing Li Yu's firm words, a warm current surged in his heart. It was like a bright light that illuminated his foggy soul.

That's right! Now that the apocalypse had come, they had to protect some precious things.

For example, family!

In the era before the apocalypse, with the development of the Internet, communication between people became more and more convenient, but the distance between hearts was getting further and further.

With the influx of liberal ideas from abroad, many people advocated independence, and the concept of family became weaker and weaker.

Why was it that in the apocalypse before his rebirth, many people lived in a daze and did not know why they lived?

It was because there was no conviction! There was no one to rely on! There was no confidence in their heart!

Look at the country!

Before the apocalypse, many soldiers and hot-blooded youths were filled with fighting spirit. That was because they had the same hot-bloodedness: The country must be awesome!

5,000 years had passed in a grandiose manner. Those who offended Huaxia would be executed no matter how far away they were. That was the grand saying of driving a long carriage and trampling over the lack of ambition in the Helan Mountains. That was to make Long Chengfei stay and not teach Huma how to pass through the Yin Mountains.

Unfortunately, now that the apocalypse had arrived, the government was gone, and social order had collapsed. There was no country or order, and the entire world no longer had a country!

What he could do was pay attention to the second most important thing.

Family!

The family atmosphere in the country was much thicker than overseas. It was not like the foreigners who abandoned their parents when they reached adulthood at 18 years old.

However, in the country, there was a saying that there was an intergenerational relationship. There were parents who had worked hard their entire lives to buy a house and marry a wife for their children.

Appreciating kinship was an indelible bloodline in the people of the country!

"Home is a place where you can rely on and not have to worry. It's also a place where you can regain your courage in any desperate situation."

Li Yu was like an old man as he rambled on beside Liu Jianwen. It was as if he was talking to Liu Jianwen but also as if he was talking to himself.

Remodeling the family's ideals and blood connection was more intimate than other outsiders.

Compared to strangers, relatives who shared common interests and were related by blood were more reliable.

He wanted to rebuild the family's culture and beliefs so that everyone would have someone to rely on in their hearts. With someone to rely on, the talents would be stronger! Without fear, they would be invincible!

Liu Jianwen listened attentively to Li Yu's words and felt even more touched.

He patted Li Yu's shoulder and said heavily, "We're family!"

Then, he said as if he was swearing, "Little Yu, I'll protect my family well! I'll listen to you in the future!"

Li Yu nodded lightly and suddenly smiled. Before he was reborn, no one could believe him. Many people learned how to disguise themselves. He had suffered many losses, and his heart became colder and colder. He lived every day in a daze.

Now, he had something to rely on. His family might be his weakness at times, but it was more likely that they would make him stronger!

As if he had found a kindred spirit, Li Yu was very happy.

He hugged his uncle's shoulders affectionately and walked towards the villa like a brother.

Liu Jianwen felt a warmth in his heart when he felt this action, and he chuckled softly.

...…..

When he returned to his room, he realized that Little Xuanxuan had sneaked into his room to sleep again.

Ever since Li Yu brought her back to the base, she followed him wherever he went.

Patting Little Xuanxuan's little face, Li Yu said, "Little Xuanxuan, why are you sleeping here? Go sleep in your room."

Xuanxuan ignored him and turned around to continue sleeping.

Seeing that, Li Yu stopped waking her up and quietly left the bed.

Xuanxuan hadn't slept well in a long time, and being by Li Yu's side made her feel especially at ease.

She only trusted Li Yu!

It was Li Yu who saved her from despair. It was Li Yu who touched her head and said, "Come with me!"

It was Li Yu who had given her the warmth she had never dreamed of after the apocalypse!

The moment Li Yu saved her, she had to repay him well. When she grew up, she would definitely protect Li Yu!

Xuanxuan was in a deep sleep.

Li Yu looked at this pitiful little girl. She seemed to treat him as her only family!

He felt a warmth in his heart.

A faint smile appeared on his lips. He walked to the window sill and simply laid out a blanket. He leaned against the window and stared blankly at the gradually descending moon.

He didn't sleep. He thought of what Liu Huamei said about what happened on the rock mountain today and muttered to himself, "Rock Mountain…"

Liu Huamei was dead, but what about Liu Weimin? How should he deal with the village secretary and the others?

To Li Yu, he liked to nip the problem in the bud.

...…

Early the next morning, Li Yu slept until noon.

He had a meeting and set off for Rock Mountain. He had something important to do!

First: Training the soldiers and letting the younger generation know about cruel human nature and reality.

Second: To solve the problem. The fewer people who knew where the base was, the better, especially the bad guys.

Third: Creating a sense of crisis.

He gathered his first uncle, Liu Jianwen, and second uncle, Li Hongda.

He brought along his younger brother, Li Hang, his younger sister, Li Yuan, his younger male cousins, Li Haoxian, Li Haoran, Li Zhengping… His younger female cousins, Li Peizhen, Li Suxin, and Lai Dongsheng…

And more.

There were nearly 20 males and nearly 10 females over the age of 16 in the family.

The group of 15 people left in a grandiose manner.

His father, Li Hongyuan, Fourth Uncle, Uncle-in-law, and the others stayed at home.

The older generation initially disagreed, especially with the four-year-old Li Suxin and her aunt's six-year-old booger-picking boy, Zhang Zhixing.

However, Li Yu said, "We can protect them for a while, but can we protect them for a lifetime?"

They finally agreed to this decision.

Before he left, Li Yu handed a gun to his fourth uncle and uncle-in-law, telling them to protect their families. When he handed them the gun, Li Yu gave them a deep look, hoping that they would take care of themselves!

Then, they set off. This time, they drove three cars.

Li Yu and his uncle each held a submachine gun filled with bullets. Li Hang also pestered him for it. In the end, Li Yu gave it to him and told him to be careful not to go off.

The remaining people all brought some knives and crossbows. Even the four-year-old Li Suxin brought a small dagger.

Little Xuanxuan was exceptionally excited about this trip to Rock Mountain.

Especially when she also got a small knife, she kept begging Li Yu to teach her how to use it.

Ever since she got the knife, she had been practicing the few movements that Li Yu had taught her. She was tireless.
