273 Angel
The situation overseas made the people of Yunzhou more confident in their country. At the same time, those who had awakened their bloodline but thought that they had become monsters almost cried tears of joy when they saw the overwhelming news online.
Especially when they knew that the government had specially prepared schools for them to study in. They also worked hard to integrate them into the masses so that they would not be ostracized. They finally dared to walk out openly.
Liu Anling was one of them. Her body had changed a month before the news came out. When she awakened, she was in so much pain that she thought she was going to die.
Fortunately, her parents had always taken care of her. However, after awakening, her ears became cat ears, her nails grew longer, and she even grew a tail.
At that time, her parents were so frightened that they started crying. She was also frightened.
Although she had fantasized about being unique when she was reading novels and watching television, when this uniqueness really came, she did not feel joy but endless panic, afraid that she would be treated as a monster.
Fortunately, although her parents were afraid, they did not give up on her. Instead, they let her stay at home and take leave from school.
This stay lasted for a month. Liu Anling was already in despair. Just as she felt that she had to hide for the rest of her life, her parents suddenly opened the door to her room excitedly.
“Xiaoling, our Xiaoling is not a monster. Her bloodline has awakened.”
That day, the family of three hugged each other and cried bitterly. The days they had suffered in fear for so long were finally over.
Like Liu Anling, there were a few other cases. Most parents chose to hide their children from the danger outside when their children suddenly grew animal ears and tails.
There were only two people who were treated as monsters after their bloodline awakened. One of them was almost captured and burned by the ignorant villagers. Fortunately, the youth’s awakened bloodline was of a ferocious lion.
The moment he was captured, he broke free from the village’s encirclement and ran into the mountains, never to be seen again.
In the end, when the local police station went to the village to do publicity, they realized that the villagers’ expressions were not right. They quickly asked and found out about this. Then, the police immediately established a search and rescue team to save the young man who was already extremely thin in the mountains.
There was also a girl who was born into a family that favored boys over girls. She was also abandoned as a monster because of her bloodline awakening. In the end, she hid and wandered about for a long time.
When she was discovered by the police, she ran away in fear. In the end, the people from the heretic bureau found her and comforted her for a long time. They also explained to her that bloodline metahumans were not monsters and that there were many people like her. The girl cried for a long time to vent her fear and grievances.
Under the strong publicity of the country, no matter how remote the place was, everyone basically knew about the spiritual energy recovery and bloodline awakening.
In order to achieve a better effect, they had to send special publicity teams to publicize at some mountainous areas with underdeveloped Internet communications. What’s more, there were one or two Awakened in the publicity team who could provide a more direct explanation.
Lu Beichen and Lu Xiaocha had been dragged along to scout.
At this moment, they were in a remote and dangerous mountain area.
There were also three local police officers.
They were very envious of Lu Beichen’s wings, especially in some steep and rugged areas. Lu Beichen could easily fly over as long as he spread his wings.
This was simply too convenient!
Lu Xiaocha also jumped up in a few moments. Walking on the steep cliff was like walking on flat ground. The police officers still had to climb over.
“It’s up ahead.”
Lu Beichen flew in the air and looked at the village in the distance. He clicked his tongue. “There are actually people living in such a dangerous place.”
These roads were filled with cliffs. If one was not careful, they would fall down.
The policeman wiped his sweat. “That’s right. I didn’t think of it before I came, but these people have lived here for generations. They’ve already taken root in this place. They can’t leave even if they don’t want to.
Those poor and uneducated old people only knew how to farm. If they really left their place and went to the city, wouldn’t they starve to death? Even police officers like us were unwilling to come to this place, but the children living here had to walk in this dangerous place every day because they had to go to school.
Once, when we came here, we happened to see those children going to school. Just looking at them made us feel shocked, but other than giving some grants to the mountain people here and giving them charity money to help themselves, we can’t help them much.”
Most of the time, it was not that they did not want to leave. After all, if they could give the children a safer and better environment to learn, these elders would still be willing to go out for the sake of their children.
However, the conditions did not allow them to leave.
Lu Beichen was a young master who had grown up with a golden spoon in his mouth. Although he had seen such news on television in the past, he had contributed some money when he was doing charity donations.
However, this was the first time he felt all of this directly. It still gave Lu Beichen a huge impact.
Coincidentally, he heard a child’s voice on the steep cliff road they had come from.
“Xiao Liu, be careful. Hold my hand and don’t run around.”
“Yes, I understand.”
He flapped his wings and looked up. He saw five children carrying school bags.
These children helped each other walk on the cliff. The oldest was only a few years old, and the youngest looked to be seven or eight years old.
At this moment, a child looked up and saw Lu Beichen flying in the sky. He was so shocked that his eyes widened.
“Sister Miaomiao, I saw an Angel!”
The child pointed in Lu Beichen’s direction and did not notice that he had twisted his foot on a rock. His entire body fell off the cliff.
“Xiao Liu!!!”
The boy’s companion panicked and wanted to reach out to grab him, but it was too late.
Lu Beichen’s pupils constricted at that moment. He immediately retracted his wings and swooped down like an arrow.
In their great panic, the children saw a white shadow flash by, and then they saw a miracle.
Xiao Liu, who was falling, thought that he was going to die. He was still thinking about what his grandfather would do in the future when he realized that he was being held back by somebody. A fragrance wafted from the tip of his nose. He opened his eyes with tears in his eyes and saw a pair of snow-white wings and the cold young man’s chin.
Xiao Liu sniffed. “… Angel?”
He had heard the stories of Angels from his teacher. He didn’t expect to really see an Angel. Moreover, this Angel had saved him!
Lu Beichen lowered his eyes. “Focus on walking in the future.”
‘Don’t look around. You almost lost your life.’
Facing the setting sun, Lu Beichen carried Xiao Liu and flew to a safe place before putting him down.
