Chapter 761
Chapter 761: Chapter 7 Rhein Village_5 Chapter 761: Chapter 7 Rhein Village_5 Uncle Wei Shengjin also suggested visiting the village CC mentioned.
He had been wandering in the forest for the past two months and was looking for a safe place to rest and recuperate.
So.
CC led the way, and the trio turned around and proceeded through the forest.
In a forest devoid of reference points, where the view above was obscured by branches and leaves, Lin Xian couldn’t distinguish north from south and simply followed CC blindly.
Along the way, Uncle Wei Shengjin wasn’t idle either; he followed behind the two, continuing to scan the area with his metal detector.
Lin Xian and CC walked ahead, discussing many things.
CC from The Fifth Dreamland was also born in Brooklyn, Mi Country.
According to her, the population there was even sparser, and it was a very, very, very long distance to the nearest clustered village.
Regarding the 2400 super disaster, CC knew even less than Uncle Wei Shengjin.
“Mainly because it’s been too long ago,”
CC explained:
“That all happened over 200 years ago, and since humanity on Earth recovered from the disaster and wars, there hasn’t been much time for development.
A lot of knowledge and history have been completely lost.”

It seemed.There was no answer forthcoming from CC.
What particularly surprised Lin Xian…
𝑛𝘰𝘃𝕘𝗼.co
…was that in the year 2604 when CC was born, there were only twenty or thirty million people on Earth, while Mars already had populations in the billions.
In such a disparate situation, CC was still precisely born on Earth.
Could it be that the Millennium Stakes only existed on Earth?
Another hour passed.
It became completely dark.
Wei Shengjin turned on his flashlight, illuminating the forest with a glow of technology that didn’t exist on current Earth.
“How much further?”
Lin Xian asked:
“We’ve been walking for nearly two hours already.”
“We’re almost there.”
CC pointed towards the jungle to the right front:
“Just past this forest, there’s a small river and right beside it is Rhein Village.”
?
Lin Xian turned his head:
“What village did you say?”
“Rhein Village.”
CC smiled:
“Does the name sound strange?
It actually originated from a once very popular cat doll.”
“Oh, Rhein Cat!
I know it!”
The one ahead flashing the flashlight, Wei Shengjin, looked back:
“That cat toy was very popular on Mars.
My son had a Rhein Cat toy when he was young, and it was still popular when my grandson was young…
There are all sorts of storiet about the origin of this cat, but they’re all from long ago on Earth, and who knows which artist or which company designed such a cute cat.”
Hearing everyone affirming the Rhein Cat, Lin Xian naturally felt happy inside.
Even though everyone had forgotten the founders, MX Company, Rhein Company…
seeing that Rhein Cat could again cross 600 years of time, and survive the 2400 super disaster, honestly, Lin Xian was quite comforted.
“It seems the village chief still harbors a childlike spirit.”
Lin Xian asked, smiling:
“How old is the village chief of Rhein Village?”
“Over 100 years old, she’s an old grandmother.”
CC answered:
“This grandmother is incredible, very respected.
She’s actually from Mars, but since coming to Earth, she’s never thought of going back…”
“I’ve talked with her, and she truly is a very gentle, very kind grandmother.
I asked her why she didn’t spend her twilight years on Mars, but instead chose to live on Earth.
She told me—”
“[There are many people who need help on Earth, many here live in backwardness and poverty…
so she came.
Even though she is old, the knowledge in her mind could help some people on Earth, save some; that’s enough, that’s her dream and life’s pursuit.]”
Hearing this, Lin Xian felt a deep respect:
“This village chief has a grand vision indeed.
How long has she been on Earth?”
“Probably twenty or thirty years now.”
CC, slashing the vines with a machete, led the two out of the gradually thinning woods:
“That old grandmother is truly learned and wise; she’s taught many things to the people in nearby villages, which is why more and more people have come to settle in Rhein Village, and the village has grown stronger.”
“The village chief, the old grandmother, has also been very kind to me.
Knowing that I came from far across the ocean, she took great care of me and even had a temporary bamboo hut built for me to live in.”
“Look, here we are.
That enclosed area up ahead is Rhein Village.”
Lin Xian and Wei Shengjin looked across the river.
They could see that the village was not small; a hamlet consisting of hundreds of households was entirely surrounded by a fence, isolated internally.
At the village exit, there stood an open wooden door, now wide open.
Numerous children were running inside and outside the village, which lacked any electric lighting.
There were only touches of oil lamp light, candlelight, and several burning bonfires.
“It really is heartwarming…”
Wei Shengjin exclaimed:
“Such a leisurely scene is definitely not to be seen on the costly Mars.”
The trio crossed the river, continuing towards the village gate.
Along the way, Lin Xian observed that large areas along the river and near the village had been cultivated into farmland filled with various crops and vegetables; far away, he could also see livestock pens, indicating the raising of animals.
From a production capacity stand point, self-sufficiency was absolutely no problem.
Having reached the village gate, Lin Xian looked at the pattern carved on the door…
“It really is Rhein Cat!”
This must truly be the highest historical moment for Rhein Cat.
