Chapter 639: Integration

The pungent scent woke Memphis from its sleep. After a few moments, everyone else in the camp woke up.

For Memphis, waking up in the morning has been the most painful for them in the past few months, especially in the past month, because by this time everyone has already digested yesterday's dinner, and the cold of the night has not completely dissipated.

Due to food restrictions, a month ago, Memphis ordered to cancel breakfast.

According to his arrangement, only those young people who set out in the morning to go outside in search of food were eligible to receive a leftover meal from the previous night in the morning, ensuring that they had enough strength to get out of the desert. As for those who did not participate in the labor, they had to wait until noon to receive a pitiful lunch.

It's just that this morning was different, not only for breakfast, but also for a very hearty breakfast: a roasted desert horse.

Memphis was amazed, for there was not only roasted horse meat, but also a bonfire made of wood, and it was the three strangers who had arrived last night who were busy around the campfire.

While Memphis was surprised and hesitated, the others had already gathered around.

However, no one approached on their own initiative, but formed a circle around the campfire, looking at the desert horse that was slowly turning on the campfire. When the dripping horse oil burns, it emits a pungent smell, but it is not as fragrant as the various spices, especially pepper.

It was so fragrant that even Memphis couldn't help but drool.

Soon, more than a hundred people in the camp gathered around.

At this time, everyone's eyes fell on Memphis.

Obviously, they were all hungry, but they were even more afraid. The disaster changed everyone, and it also taught many people who survived.

The most important thing is that for people who don't have the strength, never covet other people's things.

Obviously, those three strangers were extraordinary.

Not to mention the others, even Memphis is a little nervous.

Last night, when they arrived, they were exhausted, even dying. But now, not only did they have enough energy, but they also hunted a desert horse and brought in a lot of timber. Even the most discerning people can see that they are not ordinary people.

As far as the saying goes, no one can hunt desert horses at night.

Perhaps, by laying traps to hunt desert horses. They had tried before, and once they had a chance to capture a desert horse that had been bitten by a desert wolf. However, it takes time to lay a trap, and it takes more time to wait for a desert horse to fall into a trap, and it is impossible to do it in one night. As for chasing desert horses in the desert, it is something that no one can imagine.

Only, that didn't make Memphis wonder.

As he approached, Memphis saw that the man had a pistol pinned to his waist, a military-standard laser gun to be exact. It looked a little shabby, but it was a gun, a gun that could shoot desert horses from tens or even hundreds of meters away.

Hunting desert horses is not too difficult for those who own guns.

All you have to do is lay an ambush on the migration path of the desert horses, then aim at a group of desert horses at the right time and shoot them again.

What really amazed Memphis was the wood.

In the desert, there are no trees at all. Even if there are some oases, there are only low shrubs that do not grow tall trees at all.

If, when the stranger arrived, he hid the gun in his clothes and was not discovered, then he certainly could not have hidden the wood.

There was only one plausible explanation, that they had come prepared, and that they had hidden their supplies before arriving at the camp.

Thinking of this, Memphis felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness.

What has happened in the past six months has made Memphis reluctant to trust any stranger, and dare not trust strangers. For these three prepared strangers, not only Memphis, but even others, they felt nervous and uneasy. For anyone, something unfamiliar often means danger. It was precisely in this way that these hungry people controlled their strong desire for food and did not rush closer.

However, this situation cannot be sustained.

Under everyone's gaze, Memphis walked out of the crowd. He knew that someone had to stand up and fight for the good of all.

"Hello, I'm Memphis." As Memphis spoke, the strange man turned around. "You came here last night and passed out outside the camp."

"I know that my name is Chu Tianjiang." Chu Tianjiang smiled slightly and said, "Thank you very much. ”

"They ......"

"She's my niece, Iska, and she's seriously ill." Chu Tianjiang glanced at Iskar and pointed at Soya again. "She is Iska's nanny and takes care of Iska. We came from the New World, and we heard that there was a cure for Iskar's ailments, so it took us a lot of effort to come here. ”

"Stowaway?" Memphis furrowed his brow.

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "It's a pity that this is not the ideal world realm we imagined. The fishing boat that brought us here was sunk before it could reach the shore. The three of us fell into the sea and managed to swim ashore. Along the way, we passed through many villages and towns, but all of them were abandoned. If I'm not mistaken, there's a war here, and you're supposed to be the ones who fled the town. ”

Memphis nodded, not saying anything more.

"Let everyone come over, even if it's to thank you for your help last night."

"This ......"

"Besides, there is so much food, the three of us can't finish it."

Memphis didn't hesitate any longer, nodding at the crowd watching him. With Memphis' permission, the fugitives gathered around the campfire immediately gathered around. A desert horse weighs more than two hundred kilograms, and at least a hundred kilograms of meat is enough to fill everyone's belly.

Of course, Memphis was not polite either. When Soya brought a piece of sliced horse meat, he graciously caught it.

"You're from the New World?" Eating fragrant roast horse meat, Memphis felt that the middle-aged man in front of him was more reliable, not the kind of dangerous stranger.

Chu Tianjiang nodded, he was also eating roast horse meat, but he was eating it very slowly, and he didn't look very hungry.

"If only you had come to the right place half a year ago. But now," Memphis shook his head and sighed again, "you shouldn't have come here at all. ”

"It's a pity that we're already here, and we can't go back."

Memphis was stunned for a moment, and looked at Chu Tianjiang a little puzzled.

"The fishing boat that brought us has been sunk, and the fishing village that picked us up has been destroyed. Otherwise, we wouldn't be inland. ”

Memphis sighed and said, "Next, where do you want to go?" ”

"City."

"Looking for a doctor to treat her?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "At most, there will be half a year, maybe less than half a year, otherwise we wouldn't have ventured to come here." ”

"Even if you go to the city, you may not be able to cure her disease."

"Really?"

"You're outsiders, and you don't know anything about it."

Chu Tianjiang didn't say much, although he really wanted to ask, but since he talked about this topic, Memphis would naturally say it.

"I haven't been to the New World, so I don't know about the situation on your side, but the current United Continent is not what it used to be." Memphis put down his plate, his mood heavy. "If you insist on going to the city, you're probably going to lose your life."

"If we were afraid of danger, we wouldn't be here."

Memphis glanced at Chu Tianjiang and said, "I believe that you are a capable person, but it does not mean that you can overcome all difficulties. ”

"Really?" Chu Tianjiang smiled faintly, looking very confident.

"The fact that you can hunt this desert horse and get timber shows that you're good. Maybe there are some people in the New World who have superpowers, and you are one of them. But you know that there are many people here, especially those who are powerful, have superpowers, and they are very strong superpowers. ”

"So, you know what's going on in the New World."

Memphis was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Chu Tianjiang meant.

"That's right, I have superpowers."

Memphis's brow jumped a few times, but he didn't express his thoughts. He had already guessed that if Chu Tianjiang didn't have superpowers, it would be impossible to hunt desert horses, let alone get wood. Besides, for ordinary people, going deep into a strange desert is self-defeating.

"We'll stay here for a few days and wait until Iska is better before we go."

Memphis Chao was cutting horse meat for other people, and Iska took a look, although it was beautiful, but it did look sick.

"If you don't object......"

"You can stay as long as you want, it's just that we can't provide more food." Memphis turned around and said very politely, "You can also see, we have a lot of people here, and they are all ordinary people. Don't be afraid of your jokes, it's been a long time since we've eaten meat. ”

"Food is not a problem and I will try my best to help other people. It's just ......" Chu Tianjiang paused slightly, "I hope you can provide a guide to take us to the nearest city." Of course, I wouldn't let the guide take the risk, just give us a ride around the city. ”

"Can you provide us with food?"

Chu Tianjiang nodded and said, "There is a herd of horses nearby, if you can arrange enough manpower, we can hunt this herd." The horse meat is smoked into jerky, enough to ensure that the people here will not go hungry for the next few months, so that everyone will be fed. ”

Memphis didn't say anything more and immediately agreed.

If Chu Tianjiang had superpowers, it would not be difficult to hunt desert horses, but for Memphis, the temptation of food was too great.
