Probably because the screams of the two robbers were so miserable that the shacks that were still lit were all extinguished.

The two of them walked in the stinky alley, very quiet, so quiet that there was not even the sound of rats. This year, all the rats have been eaten.

Only the stench of excrement and decomposing corpses mixed in the air was unbearable.

The two of them quickly shuttled through the alley, the refugee area they were in was not very large, and it only took about ten minutes to reach a clearing, which was the center of the entire refugee area.

The open space is only about five square meters, and unlike other refugee houses, this open space is very clean, so clean that only loess is clean, and you can even smell the aroma of leaves when you get close.

The clearing was surrounded by a circle of fences, each more than two meters high, and the back was held up by thigh-thick wooden sticks to prevent the attacks of wild beasts, but there was no way to prevent people from entering.

Everyone in the refugee area has developed a habit that no matter how tired you are, there will be a person to keep vigil, because you don't know when someone will come out and attack you and take your water.

In the center of the fence is a towering tree that cannot be surrounded by three white leaves, and the huge trunk of the tree is like a pillar that reaches into the sky, which is extremely impressive.

Five meters above the trunk of the tree, there is a very regular circular platform, this platform is composed of branches that are wrapped around everything, and it will have its current appearance after artificial perennial trimming, and the radius of the platform is about two meters.

On the platform is a house surrounded by wooden planks, the whole house is like a huge wooden barrel, with only two windows to see out.

Looking further up, there is the trunk of the tree that continues to rise into the sky, and the branches and foliage on the trunk are extremely luxuriant, and each branch expands outward, and the dense foliage gathers together, like a natural umbrella, covering the entire fence.

This is their home, a place that is different from all refugee areas.

Xu Lingshan walked in the front, he was used to the majesty of all this, gently pushed the gate of the fence open, and then looked around to make sure that there was no one, before nodding at Bai Ye and signaling safety.

After Shiraba enters the fence, he gently pulls the rope next to it, and a horizontal log falls, successfully locking the fence and becoming a deadbolt.

This was designed by Shiraba's parents, and once the crosswood fell, the thieves had no need to push it away from the outside.

It's not very useful, but it just allows you to sleep a little more peacefully at night.

He covered his chest that wanted to cough, and looked at the towering giant tree in front of him with a smile: "Mom and Dad, I'm back." ”

Xu Lingshan put the water aside, took a few steps back and moved his body, and then rushed towards the trunk quickly with his legs.

When he reached the position of less than half a meter of the tree trunk, his knees quickly bent and poured all the strength of his whole body into his legs, and his legs shot directly above the trunk with force again!

The distance of five meters with his rapid climbing, there was only a distance of two meters left in an instant, and at this moment, he stretched out his right arm very skillfully, grabbed a raised branch with five fingers, and then used this branch as a fulcrum to rotate the whole person one hundred and eighty degrees!

When he stabilized his body again, the whole person was already standing on top of the branch!

Next to the branch was a thumb-thick rope, which he pulled gently, creaked!

A wooden plank was placed under the original circular platform, which was only about half a meter, just enough to make room for a passage to enter the house from below.

Xu Lingshan bounced slightly, and his body directly penetrated into the room through the passage, this action was done in one go, as if he was the master here.

Every time he saw Xu Lingshan like a loach that could freely shuttle on this towering giant tree, Bai Ye felt an inexplicable envy.

In fact, four months ago, there was no such trouble, at that time there was a ladder that could be climbed directly to the platform. But once someone climbed over the fence and sneaked up through the ladder, and if he hadn't suddenly coughed and woke up, he might have capsized in the gutter.

That person was naturally invited to the room by him 'friendly', and then thrown down from it by Xu Lingshan 'friendly'.

The ladder has ceased to exist since, though no one seems to have dared to approach it anymore.

After a while, there was a knocking sound from above, and the room was already lit by candlelight.

Xu Lingshan showed half of his head through the passage: "Send the water up first." ”

After speaking, a rope and a bundle of rope ladders fell from above, Bai Ye tied the rope to the handle of the water bottle, and then stepped on the rope ladder himself: "Okay, pull me up!"

The words were closed, and Bai Ye only felt that his body quickly left the ground, and in less than a moment, he was already five meters above the ground.

I have to sigh that Ling Shan's strength is getting bigger and bigger, and the weight of more than 100 catties is completely ignored. He walked through the passage, and the water had been placed in the corner of the room by Xu Lingshan.

Closing the plank and looking at the familiar room, Bai Ye only felt all the tiredness rushing over his body, and he didn't have to be so vigilant here.

The room was neat, and instead of tree branches, the floor was covered with a neat row of wooden planks. There were only two skins on the board, and a patchwork table with an oil lamp made of animal oil, and a few strings of smoked bacon hanging from the trunk, as well as a bow and arrows.

There are very few things, and these are almost all they have.

Xu Lingshan had already folded his short sleeves and put them aside at the moment, sitting shirtless at the window, looking at the refugee area outside. There were still lights on in a few places, the cries of children and women in a few places, and the sound of houses being torn down in a few places.

The refugee area at night is very chaotic, so chaotic that you can only barely feel at ease if you live in a tree.

"Yezi, when do you say this kind of day is a head?"

"I don't know. ”

Bai Ye ignored the noise outside, lay on the ground and rested briefly for five minutes, took a sip of water and jumped on the wooden table, and with a gentle push of his hands, the round roof was pushed open.

He took the bow and crossbow and climbed up to the roof of the house through the opening: "You rest first, and I will keep watch for half the night." ”

With that, he closed the plank, leaned his back against the trunk of the tree, and looked out at the high wall in the distance.

Even this towering tree could not let him see what it looked like behind the high wall. The 200-metre wall acts as an artificial canopy, completely isolating the outside world from the world inside.

Outside the high wall, there is a shack made of wooden planks, mostly held steady by a few stones, and there is no security. The shacks are separated from each other by an alley that barely allows people to pass sideways.

The slightly empty ground is full of dense deep pits, which are all dug holes with water. He had done it three months earlier, but he had only dug a handful of moist dirt into it, and when he tried to dig deeper, the water was salty.

This kind of water was once called alkaline water by my father, and if you drink it, you will die.

Since then he has known that many people will die next.

There are countless refugee areas like theirs, one after the other, like an ocean of despair with no end in sight......

He took out the strengthening potion in his pocket, and when he pulled out the stopper, a foul smell permeated, and the black, viscous liquid made people frown.

If you drink this thing, do you really have a chance to live?

He couldn't help but think of the voice in his head, but he was afraid that the mortality rate was really 200%.

Bai Ye silently thought in his heart: "Civilization, come out!"

Bite!

"Use 1 civilization to improve the potion. ”

Bite!

Civilization: Detect that the user has a waste human body enhancer, and after improvement, it can be upgraded to an A-level enhancer, and there are no side effects when taken. Do you confirm the improvement?

The conversation between Bai Ye and the voice in his head only felt like he was talking to a life. The other party has wisdom and judgment, and he even wonders if his personality has been split.

With the mentality of giving it a try, he still said, "Confirmed." ”

Bite!

After the crisp voice in his head sounded, Bai Ye clearly felt that the hand holding the test tube was slightly hot, and the hot touch was getting farther and farther away, until finally it was like holding a cup of boiling water.

Then the test tube trembled violently in his hands, and his eyes changed from initial suspicion to shock, and then from shock to current excitement.

He doesn't have a split personality, and everything changes in front of him lets him know that this will become a reality!

The black liquid in the test tube kept tumbling, causing the test tube to break free from his hand, Bai Ye hurriedly held the test tube with both hands, gritted his teeth and suppressed the vibration.

His lungs were strained by exertion, and there was an immediate pain that made it difficult for him to even breathe. But he still gritted his teeth and persevered, trying not to let himself cough, because once he coughed, the strength of his whole body would be discharged, and he didn't want a fragile test tube to fall from a height of more than five meters.

Because what it is filled with is the hope of whether he can continue to live!

Bite!

Civilization: To improve success, users can take potions directly.

Bai Ye was overjoyed, the pain and violent trembling in his hands had stopped, and he picked up the potion again, and it was no longer the black and sticky thing it used to be.

In front of his eyes was a test tube with a pale blue halo, the liquid in the glass test tube was crystal clear, emitting an alluring halo in the moonlight, as if there was an inexhaustible vitality between each molecule!

When you uncork the bottle, there is a faint aroma, full of life, and this smell is even intoxicating.

"Is this a real human enhancer?" said Shiraha grinned, the first time he had smiled so happily since the drought.

He didn't hesitate any longer, and directly poured the whole tube of potion into his mouth, and a faint sweet smell mixed with warm heat instantly spread throughout his limbs, as if his body was injected with new vitality, and every inch of cells was greedily absorbing this power.

And the most obvious feeling is his lungs, the feeling of tension at all times has completely disappeared, in exchange for an inexplicable sense of comfort, allowing him to absorb the fresh air from the tree unbridledly!

Ahem!

Bai Ye clearly heard the bones in his whole body rattling, and then a wave of heat rushed to the top of his head, making his consciousness blur for an instant.

Before he was completely unconscious, he only faintly heard a voice in his head:
