In two months, Lu Heng will be eighteen years old. For him, who dropped out of high school, compulsory military service is a sure thing.

And once he joins the army, the matter of his sister's paralysis will inevitably be discovered, and then...

Nowadays, powerful monsters are raging outside every city, and there are invaders from other worlds who always want to rush out of the space passage to capture Blue Star.

As a result, the living space possessed by human beings is far inferior to that of the old times, and resources are extremely scarce.

Not only that, but most of the monsters in the wilderness are inedible due to their mutation, and the same goes for plants.

Therefore, under such circumstances, human society has to implement a planned economy and implement a rationing system.

The house, clothing, furniture, even education, medical care, etc., are all provided by the government and distributed according to work.

What kind of contribution each person can make to the society, what kind of treatment can he enjoy.

The greater the contribution, the better the treatment and the higher the status.

However, in the distribution of educational resources, this era has achieved enough fairness.

No matter what the parents do, children are all assigned schools according to their grades.

And as long as they reach the third year of junior high, everyone will be divided into classes according to their talents.

All the martial arts classes that are suitable for martial arts practice, and all the other literature classes.

In the end, what kind of future can be obtained by studying depends mainly on oneself, and parents can't help too much.

This is not because the leaders are selfless, but to avoid burying anything that can be made.

After all, under such a difficult situation, if human society still wants to fight in its own nest, it is basically not far from extinction.

Of course, this is the good side, but the bad side is that this era does not support the disabled, unless they are disabled due to public service.

Everyone has to be useful, either as a worker, as a farmer, as a soldier, as a doctor, as an engineer, and so on.

I'm not afraid of disabilities, as long as I can play my role, I'm most afraid of being a completely useless waste person, who is not qualified to live in the city to waste resources and drag others down.

And Lu Heng's younger sister is a useless person in any sense.

Once discovered, it will be sent out of the city.

Of course, there are not no solutions. There are two ways to solve this dilemma.

One is to become a warrior, and the other is to become a scientist.

Warriors are powerful and are the main force to defend the city and open up living space, while scientists can improve productivity and improve the combat effectiveness of the army by researching various new technologies.

Both of them are the pillars of human society and the elite among the elites, so they both have various privileges, including sheltering their own relatives.

Don't think about it as a scientist. Lu Heng has dropped out of high school due to a decline in his grades, completely losing his chance at Kaohsiung University.

Therefore, becoming a warrior is the only way out.

But it is not easy to become a martial artist. Normally, only students who have been admitted to Wuhan University have the opportunity to become a martial artist.

For other people who can't get into Wuda University, first of all, their talent in martial arts is not enough, and secondly, the training resources they get are far less than those of Wushu college students, so it is difficult to become a martial artist by their own efforts.

'There are still two months left, a dead horse will be a living horse doctor, no matter what. ’

Lu Heng cleaned up the mess in front of his eyes, settled down with Lu Xiaoxiao, and walked out of the house.

But just two floors down the stairs, a middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man came up from the downstairs.

The middle-aged woman had a plump body and a proud expression, and she smirked when she saw Lu Heng.

"Isn't this Xiaoheng, who went to work on the farm at night?"

"Hey, look, I persuaded your parents back then that you should honestly study in a vocational school with such good grades. If you come out and do not be strong, you have to go to that high school to be brave."

"Hey, it's really a pity."

Lu Heng ignored the pretentious middle-aged woman and walked straight down around them.

"Look at it, you can't say it's wrong!"

The middle-aged woman shook her head and looked at the middle-aged man beside her. After she guessed that Lu Heng was far away, she said with a smile on her face, "It's still my Xiaohao, who will graduate from the vocational school next year, so you don't have to go to die in the army. , I'll have a big fat grandson for me right away."

Lu Heng went down quickly, and the sound above had long since become inaudible.

Although he didn't like Haozi's mother's broken mouth, he had to admit that what the other party said made sense.

For ordinary families, going to vocational school is indeed the safest way out.

Because the vocational schools of this era are actually equivalent to the universities of the old era, coupled with the distribution of work packages for graduates in these years, as long as you can successfully graduate from a vocational school, you must have a work unit, which is equivalent to having an iron rice bowl.

The most important thing is that people who graduate from vocational schools can make better contributions to human society, so they do not need to serve in the military unless there are special circumstances.

Unfortunately, Lu Heng didn't have a choice at that time.

Back then, his parents let him go to high school because his grades were not bad and he had the hope of being admitted to the University of Science and Technology.

Once admitted to the University of Science and Technology, I am not afraid of being known about my sister's paralysis.

Even if you don't pass the test, you will be treated better than the average person when you go to the military, and you will still have the opportunity to become a technical officer.

After all, he is a high school graduate, so he is much better than someone with only junior high school education.

Of course, this is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that Lu Heng has always felt that he is not an ordinary person and should be born to climb the highest mountain.

Maybe this is the youthful spirit.

But then again, if Lu Heng's academic performance was placed in the old times, he would definitely be ranked among the top in the city.

In this era, educational resources are scarce. Most people have no books to read after nine years of compulsory education. They can only work on the farm, and then wait until they turn 18 for compulsory military service.

People like him who can be admitted to high school or vocational school are considered to be the best among their peers.

'It's a pity that my grades are still not good enough. If my grades are better, the school will give extra subsidies, and I need to go to the farm to work in exchange for food stamps. ’

Thinking of this, Lu Heng secretly shook his head.

This is the past tense, and it can no longer be undone now.

At that time, his parents and eldest brother passed away successively, which caused a huge impact on him. Not only could his academic performance not continue to improve, but instead dropped again and again, and he had to take care of Xiao Xiao, who was at home alone, so he was forced to drop out of school in the end.

Thinking about it no more, Lu Heng walked all the way to the farm in the outer city.

His city is called Jiangnan City, which is one of the fifty major base cities in the world.

Like other base cities, the inner city of Jiangnan is a residential area, protected by a thick city wall, while the outer city is the farm responsible for producing food.

Although there are city walls around the farm, UU reading www.uukanshu. com, but because the range is too large, it is very short, and it is easy for monsters to run in and hurt people.

Back then, his parents were bitten to death by the monsters that came in from outside the city wall.

His eldest brother was also bitten by a monster that suddenly appeared while patrolling the city wall and died.

Although there are all kinds of weapons and equipment on the city wall, but unfortunately the materials are too scarce in this era, bullets and shells have to be kept to deal with the beast tide, and they have to be used to defend the space passage. It is impossible for one or two sporadic monsters to fire at no cost. .

Therefore, working on the farm is extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, you will lose your life. Anyone who has a way out will not come here.

Lu Heng never thought that he would need to come here to make a living, but who knows that things are impermanent.

After passing through several heavy iron gates and riding the rail car for a while, Lu Heng finally came to the farmland where he was working.

"Uncle Wang, I'm here."

"Okay, then I'll go first."

A middle-aged man wiped his sweat, grinned at Lu Heng, and then started to pack up and leave.

Lu Heng put on rubber shoes and went to work on the ground.

The work is not farm work at all. These farmlands are all connected together in pieces, mainly relying on precision farming with automated equipment. The work that people do here is mainly to catch insects, mice, and sparrows, so as to prevent them from eating the crops.

These days, the insects are extremely powerful. Ordinary pesticides cannot poison them at all. The pesticides that can poison them will either poison the crops together, or they will remain in the grain, and people will get sick after eating them.

"Drink, ha, ha..."

Lu Heng took advantage of the gap between work and practiced the moves he learned from the martial arts hall from time to time.

Snapped-

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound in the air.
