Next chapter
This woman's ability to survive in the wild is beyond imagination, and she knows how to use not only ready-made things as weapons, but also how to draw water and make fire.
A few big men tossed the dry branches that could not rise for a long time, and after a few casual fiddling in her hands, a burst of green smoke came out, and after a while, with a snort, a bright red flame jumped on the branches, and soon, the flame burned more and more, and finally dyed into a large bonfire, which was burning.
Only burning something high in calcium will produce a red flame, and trees actually contain calcium? This is indeed a novelty.
The woman picked a huge tree with luxuriant branches nearby, and scurried upward, and the whole person clung to the smooth trunk like a cat, and then climbed silently into the canopy as if she were walking on the ground, and after a while, it fell gently.
Jumping from a twenty or thirty-meter-high branch, not only was she not injured, but she didn't even make a sound when she landed, and she should have found a relatively safer place to rest.
If it was in normal times, Zhang Yuntian would definitely applaud when he saw someone with such a light and agile body, but at this time, he could only swallow a mouthful of saliva nervously: beauty itself is a killer weapon that makes it easy for people to take off their guards, coupled with her silent actions and agile and fast skills, if she wants to kill someone, it will be difficult for that person to escape from her palm!
The woman seemed to see Zhang Yuntian's concern, smiled charmingly, looked at him with a little provocative in her eyes, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, little handsome guy, my impression of you is not bad, even if I want to kill someone, among all the people here, you will definitely be the last!" What's more, what you said just now makes a lot of sense, now is not the time for us to fight, and survival is the most important thing! Isn't it? ”
Zhang Yuntian nodded, did not speak, this woman said that killing people was as easy as eating, as if it was a matter of course, if it was a compliment to kill himself in the last place, he would rather this woman never compliment herself.
Now the people gathered here are all wanted felons in the entire galaxy, not good people, the peace in front of them is only temporary, once it comes to the issue of personal interests, there will inevitably be a tragic fight, but in any case, you have to stay away from this woman, at least you can't make enemies with him, the so-called open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, once you are targeted by this woman, you are afraid that you will sleep at night, and you will never be able to open your eyes the next day.
The giant and a few prisoners cut the branches into spears with sharp stone chips, and inserted the sharp ends diagonally into the ground to form an improvised fortification, while the little man and a fat man tore the bee monster's flesh into palm-sized pieces, skewered them on sticks, and roasted them over a bonfire.
The bee monster's flesh was very red, and it made a sizzling sound of roasting meat on the fire, but there was not much oil and water, and a strong milky smell soon filled the air, making people's stomachs rumble and drool.
Probably because of the fatigue of the journey, the hunger was fierce, and the prisoners didn't bother to wonder if the meat was poisonous, and whether they would die if they ate it, anyway, when they came to the ghost star, they had almost broken off their thoughts of life, and it was better to be poisoned than to be tortured and starved to death.
What's more, this world is full of horror and strange creatures, death is not necessarily a bad thing, of course, this is under the premise that there is no choice of life, human instinct will remind people to be strong to live.
The prisoners were ready to die, and they ate even more unscrupulously, and the bee meat was indeed crisp and delicious, and there was a faint sweetness, so one by one the starving ghosts were reincarnated as if they were eating pricelessly, until their stomachs were swollen and they couldn't eat anymore, so they stopped.
Zhang Yuntian used the excuse to observe the terrain, and deliberately came back two hours after they finished eating, if the meat of this bee monster was poisonous, it should have had a seizure at this time, when he saw these people sitting there in good condition, talking and laughing, he knew that this meat could be eaten, so he picked out a few pieces of the leftover meat and heated them on the fire, and chewed them heavily.
Scarface's side, from the westward setting of the sun to the setting of the sun, defeated a total of four challengers, three of whom were broken by him, and the remaining one was still breathing, but it was also short-lived.
After these rounds of competition, Scarface has basically established the status of Big Brother among the surrounding group of outlaws.
Divided by the escort cabin, Zhang Yuntian and others camped in the south, while Scarface and others rested in the north.
When Zhang Yuntian was full, he suddenly said, "I think we should share some food, and torches for the people over there!" He said and twisted his head towards Scarface.
"What?" When the little man heard Zhang Yuntian say this, he jumped up all of a sudden, and said hurriedly: "Why? They didn't kill this bee monster, they didn't make the fire, and they were still fighting savagely over there when we were working hard to barbecue meat! Why give them what we have? ”
It seems that the little man is still angry about Scarface's insult to him just now, and as soon as he mentions something related to Scarface, he immediately jumps out to question it.
The woman didn't speak, and looked at Zhang Yuntian with interest, wanting to hear why he wanted to help someone who was obviously hostile to this side.
I saw Zhang Yuntian say unhurriedly: "Just because we want to sleep peacefully!" If it's already dark today, they're not stupid, and they won't go out hunting at this time! ”
"Phew, you deserve it!" The little man said angrily: "I have kindly reminded them before, but they have not been taken seriously, and they still laugh at me!" It's really good to be kind, it's not good to repay, they deserve to suffer some hardships, starve them for a night, and see if they dare to be arrogant! ”
Zhang Yuntian shook his head with a smile and explained: "I can understand your current attitude, I'm the same as you, I don't have a good impression of them, at this point, we are on one side!" Merely... If they're just a little bite, they're going to starve tonight, but it's a pity they're not, they're all ruthless characters with blood on their hands, if we empathize, you don't have anything to eat, and there's food over there, will you just watch it? Sleep in a huff? ”
"You're saying they're likely to come and grab food at night?" The little man's eyes widened, and he gradually grasped Zhang Yuntian's central intention.
"It's not possible, it's certain!" Zhang Yuntian's tone was very firm, he knew very well that few people were born with the pleasure of killing, most people kill to make or protect their own interests, not to mention that there is a group of hungry prisoners opposite, people are so hungry that they will even eat human flesh, what is it to fight for food? Swallowing your anger is definitely not their motto!
"We gave them food, so what will we eat tomorrow? This bee monster is so big, and it's not a solid piece of meat, and the disgusting entrails and venom-filled sacs in it can't be eaten at all! "The little man is still a little unwilling.
"Tomorrow we can continue hunting, there are big men here, I think eating shouldn't be a problem!" Zhang Yuntian glanced at the giant, and the latter proudly patted his solid chest muscles with his palm, as if to say, leave it to me, there is no problem.
"Okay, even if the food is distributed to them, but there is no need to give them even the torches, let them live in the dark, they can't have no strength at all, and they can easily share the results of our efforts!"
The fact that the little man was able to hack into the central control system of the Federation fleet shows that his IQ is absolutely incomparable, but his emotional intelligence in dealing with people is extremely insufficient, and he is too ignorant of human nature.
Zhang Yuntian whispered: "Divide the meat to them, in order to stabilize their feelings, to ensure that we can have a relaxed night, but the world is unpredictable, if they hide in the dark, and we stand by the fire, the enemy is dark and I am clear, this is definitely not a wise tactic, give them torches to be able to better monitor them, so that their every move is in our hands, only in this way, we can really feel at ease!" ”
The woman leaned against the trunk of the tree and clapped her hands, "I didn't see it, the little handsome guy analyzed it so thoroughly, I kind of know why the Federation locked you up here, and the careful thinking really makes people feel a little scary!" ”
After listening to Zhang Yuntian's words, the other prisoners also nodded in agreement, no one wanted to start killing each other on the first day they arrived on this planet, and surviving was the unanimous goal of everyone.
The little man shrugged his shoulders and said reluctantly, "In that case, then whatever, I definitely won't send these things to that idiot!" ”
Scarface won the game and established his leadership position, but he immediately faced the problem of starvation, if he couldn't satisfy these newly recruited little brothers, his prestige as a big brother would definitely be greatly reduced, which he would never allow to appear, so he slowly locked his eyes on the food on Zhang Yuntian's side.
There is no food, no fire, and no women on his side, and this qiē is all on Zhang Yuntian's side, which makes him very unhappy.
The scarface didn't make a move for a long time, not that he didn't want to, but that he needed to think of a foolproof strategy, the giant on the opposite side was very difficult to deal with, and the woman knew that she was a cold-blooded killer by looking at her figure, Zhang Yuntian's identity was not revealed, although it seemed that he didn't look like an outlaw licking blood on the tip of a knife, but if he could come here, he definitely had two brushes.
The only advantage on his side is that there are more people, and once the war starts, the chance of winning is at least sixty percent!
Just when Scarface was thinking about how to break through the defense and subdue Zhang Yuntian and the others in one fell swoop, suddenly a burst of firelight flashed over, and three people came from the opposite side, the leader was holding a torch, and the two people who followed behind carried most of the remaining half of the bee monster.
"I heard that you defeated six opponents by yourself, and we are also very admirable, so we sent food and torches as a gift, and it is also our intention to coexist peacefully, please accept it!"
The attitude of the person who came was very respectful, and these words were very decent, seeing the food, Scarface's vigilance suddenly relaxed, and he waved his hand lightly and said: "Got it, thank you for your kindness, I have clear grievances, and from now on we are clear, and no one owes anyone!" ”
Originally, there was no intersection between the two sides, and there was no such thing as no one owing anyone at all, but as far as the matter of giving meat is concerned, no matter how you look at it, it should be Scarface who owes Zhang Yuntian a favor, and as a result, he said so much and forgave this favor.
The person in charge didn't say anything, smiled slightly, and walked back with the two of them.
As soon as they left, a little brother immediately surrounded Scarface and began to slap his ass: "Oh, the eldest brother is really brave, even the cubs on the other side are scared, and they took the initiative to send food and torches!" ”
"Yes, even if they know each other and know how powerful the eldest brother is, otherwise if we kill them all in one go, they will definitely not be able to eat and walk around!"
"It's really promising to mess with the eldest brother, there is meat to eat, what a ghost star, in front of the eldest brother, it's not worth mentioning at all..."
Scarface was proud in his heart, and he was also very useful for these bragging, so he let them blow for a long time, and then waved his hand lightly and said, "Do you know why I told them that we are clear?" ”
The people below knew that Scarface wanted to say it himself, so even if he knew the answer, he pretended to be ignorant and shook his head decisively.
"It's very simple, since they are so afraid of us, we will spare them for the time being, as long as they call food in the future, we can eat it with us, if one day I am unhappy in the future, we can kill them at any time!"
The little brother below immediately made the sound of a wave after wave of whiskers slapping horses.
After a long time, the bonfire was set up, and a piece of roasted meat was eaten by Scarface first, until he was full, and then it was the turn of the people below to share it.
Although in the eyes of the Federation, these criminals are the destroyers of order, but within these criminals, there is a strict hierarchy, and all interests are inclined to the top, forcing the criminals to work hard to climb up in order to obtain better living conditions, and the capital to climb up is force.
Scarface had eaten and drunk enough, and learned from Zhang Yuntian's side, arranged for the people on duty at night, and then began to fall asleep leisurely.
Zhang Yuntian was lying on the stone ground, looking at the red, yellow, and blue moonlights floating in the sky, and there was always a sense of familiarity in his heart.
And since I set foot on the land of the ghost star, my heart has been very peaceful, as if I have been here before, or there is something here related to my erased memory!
