Chapter 2 Waste Pickers

The light shuttled through the void, perhaps without any intention of returning, and the beam shuttled through the void at an even faster speed, arriving at the place where it came!

However, the subtle changes in the space caused the whole journey to deviate slightly, and instead of returning to the top of the mountain, the beam smashed into a desert.

When the beam of light traveled through the universe, a trace of power that was different from dawn enveloped Chen Xi, and the light of the stars shimmered on it.

The power of this faint layer of stars was far tougher than it looked, and it protected Chen Xi's safety in the shuttle, but it still lost all power when it smashed to the ground.

In the desert, a sand pit of more than ten meters appeared, Chen Xi opened his eyes weakly, looking at the sand that was slowly sliding around him, maybe the next one would cover him, but he didn't have the slightest strength to resist, just like two years ago......

Extremely exhausted, Chen Xi closed his eyes and chose to accept his fate.

......

"Grandpa, who is this person?"

"I don't know, it could be an explorer from Valoran, anyway, I think the adults of Berguen will be interested!"

Vaguely, Chen Xi heard a child's voice and an old voice, and Chen Xi could clearly feel the difference between the words of their conversation and Chinese, but he completely understood the meaning as if it were Chinese.

"Who are you?"

Chen Xi sat up in shock, and then felt a sharp pain in his body, he suddenly lowered his head, only to see that he was sitting on a sand boat made of dead branches, all the clothes on his body were stripped naked, not even a pair of underwear was left, instead, a purple dirty rag wrapped around his waist.

The sand boat made of dead branches was pulled by an old man with purple shriveled skin, and the dead branches left scratches on his body, and the scorching sun unique to the desert made his bare back red, and he was about to peel off his skin!

And there were three or four purple-skinned people in front of him, three old men, and one child.

In addition to their own, each of the three old men carried a large lump of tatters on their backs, and saw that their own clothes were in it, while the children were pulled forward by ropes with several ornate-looking lacquered bronze vessels.

Hearing Chen Xi's words, several people turned around, but they didn't answer Chen Xi, what they heard just now was the awkward language of the country they didn't know.

"Who are you, what are you going to do, where is this, the Sahara Desert?"

The sand boat had stopped, and Chen Xi stepped barefoot on the hot sand and questioned several old men, this time, trying to converse in the unfamiliar language he had just heard.

"You're awake, then you can go by yourself!"

Chen Xi's question was not answered, the old man turned around, untied the rope on the sand boat, coiled it up, and the dead branches were picked up by him and tied into a ball, and placed on the tattered ones that were already higher than his head.

"No! Who are you, I won't go with you! I tell you, I'm a resident of Huaxia! You are kidnapping! My motherland will not let you go!"

Chen Xi roared angrily, all this in front of him made him confused, but the only place name he heard was beyond the scope of his knowledge search, which may be the tribal city in North Africa.

"Ryan, stun him!"

The old man's dull voice sounded, and the thin child, who was less than one and a half meters tall, put down the rope in his hand and turned around and walked towards Chen Xi.

"What are you going to do! Don't come here!, I've practiced taekwondo, and I'm still practicing every morning! I'll tell you, we Chinese people know kung fu!"

Chen Xi was not afraid of the child in front of him, but his shriveled skin, blank eyes, and simple enough costumes to be called primitive all reminded him of the cannibal tribe in African legends.

Looking at Ryan's figure getting closer and closer, Chen Xi was frightened, he gave up the idea of demonstrating the ninth set of radio gymnastics that he had practiced for three years, turned around, and raised his feet.

But the vertical and horizontal wounds on his body, coupled with his dry throat and extremely tired body, made him not even run out of the relaxed desert, and hit the ground directly, and the hot sand made face-to-face contact with his whole body, making him scream in an instant!

"Ryan! Shut his mouth!

In the panic, what was even more panicked than Chen Xi was the words from an old man, Chen Xi understood these words, sand thieves, cannibal tribe, this is going to be black and black?

The stinging pain from under his body told Chen Xi that he was still suffering from the warm "care" of the sun, and before Rien stepped forward to make a move, Chen Xi sat up directly, and closed his throat, which had been unbearably dry.

In the field of vision, there are only sand dunes, and even more distant sand dunes, in the endless desert, the folds of the sand shining in the scorching sun, but revealing a desperate desolation!

However, there was a slight difference in the same desert, more than a dozen figures paddling back and forth on the sand dunes farther away from here, spears, special shoes that could be sliced on the sand at great speed, light armor, two daggers that were not matched with the gorgeous daggers of the past, all of which were not easy to mess with in front of Chen Xi's eyes!

"Seth, where's the nearest Sand Swimmer Circumcircle?"

The old man in the lead asked hurriedly, with a rare panic in his tone, and while he asked a few people, he tied up his body and threw away all the dead branches, and even the rope was not withdrawn.

The rest of the people didn't have the slightest sluggishness, and they all dropped some things on the top layer one after another, which were some rags, notes, and wooden strips, and their skillful movements told Chen Xi that they had been prepared for this.

Li En didn't pay any attention to Chen Xi anymore, he picked up the things on the ground and looked at the other old man.

"Ryan, go east! Down the dunes!"

The old man, who might have been called Seth, shouted at Ryan, who didn't hesitate to pick up the delicate-looking tatters and ran towards his target.

"Outlander, if you want to live, follow Ryan!"

In the end, Seth looked at Chen Xi with complicated eyes and said a word, and then stopped paying attention to Chen Xi.

From the tone of these people, Chen Xi had already judged that these people were not some barbaric cannibal tribe, and the obvious traces of civilization told Chen Xi that they might just be another kind of survivors.

After two seconds of hesitation, Chen Xi chose to believe these people who had stripped off his clothes, and he ran towards the place where Rien had fled.

The old man behind him also finished discarding the items after ten seconds, and they chased after Chen Xi with the important harvest on their backs.

Before escaping, Chen Xi had noticed that the sand thieves were three sand dunes away, and they slid down the sand dunes very quickly, but climbing the sand dunes would undoubtedly slow down, and the special shoes were undoubtedly a drag at that time.

And this means that in order to maintain their speed, they must move on the top of the dune, and Chen Xi already has a good way.

"Ryan, walk from the side of the dune, don't follow the top of the dune!"
