At the beginning of the apocalypse, the villagers knew that the mountain village was remote and could not count on rescue from the outside world, so they united and moved to the cave at the foot of the Jiuhuan Mountain to survive together.
The young and middle-aged men of the village formed a hunting team to hunt and kill prey, obtain treasures, and the old and weak women and children managed the logistics and sundries.
But with the passage of time, various problems have gradually revealed, first of all, the ratio of unmarried men and women in the village is not balanced, and many are in-laws of the same race, which is not conducive to solving the marriage problem, and there are also many contradictions between the villagers, practicing the same exercises, some young people have grown by leaps and bounds, and some have not made the slightest progress, gradually, the gap in strength is getting bigger and bigger, the strength is strong, the most contribution, and the members of the hunting team who face the most danger are dissatisfied with the way in which the hunting resources and living materials are evenly distributed in the collective. Especially when the father and son are both young and middle-aged, and there is no drag on the family, they plan to leave.
Hunting and gathering alone cannot meet all the needs of life, and salt and cloth, which are essential daily necessities, must be obtained from the outside world.
Therefore, someone needs to take the prey to a nearby safe area in exchange, table salt, cloth weapons, and so on.
Walking out of the cave, the survivors who learned about the outside world were even more reluctant to stay in the cave, and the members of the hunting party with high combat effectiveness left the cave one after another.
Jiang Jie's parents and younger brother used to support the elderly, but later they waited for him, so they never left.
The Jiang family's parents also discussed a few days ago that if they really couldn't wait for Jiang Jie, they would change the clues left on their house to the Mengjiawan Safety Zone, and let Jiang Jie go there to find them.
Wang Yao saw that the friends of the hunting team left the cave one by one, he wanted to leave for a long time, but Wang Yao also had a grandfather with inconvenient legs and feet, Wang Yao must take his grandfather to leave with him, but with his strength alone, he could not protect his grandfather to reach the safe area safely, so no one was willing to take those who left the cave before.
"Ah Yao, which safe zone do you have in mind?" Jiang Jie asked him.
"Isn't it the Mengjiawan Safety Zone? It's the closest safe zone to us, and most of the people in our village have gone there! Wang Yao scratched his head in some confusion.
"If you're going to Mengjiawan, that's no problem, we can leave tomorrow, I'll go talk to your grandfather." Jiang Jie had already received a summons from Rong Xian Xian Immortal's jade talisman, and they would arrive near the Nine Ring Mountain tomorrow.
"Great!" Wang Yao said with a happy smile, but then he hesitated a little, "Brother Jie, aren't you planning to go to the Mengjiawan Safety Zone?" ”
"Let's go to the capital!" Jiang Jie didn't hide it from him.
"Beijing, such a long distance, aren't you afraid of encountering any danger on the road?" Wang Yao let out an exclamation, that is, before the end of the world, when the transportation was convenient and the environment was safe, most of the people here had never been to the capital.
"Don't be afraid, there are a lot of people in our team!" Jiang Jie couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth as he spoke.
I've been separated from everyone for more than ten days, and I really miss them!
After dinner, Jiang Jie and Rong Xian Xian used the sound transmission jade note to contact, Rong Xian Xian Xian The place where they camped tonight was very close to the Jiuhuan Mountain, and they could use the ordinary sound transmission jade note to contact.
"Sister Rong, there are a few friends in the village who want to go with me, they plan to go to the Mengjiawan safety zone, can we give them a ride?" Jiang Jie asked.
"Of course, your family agreed to go to the capital with you?" Rong Xian Xian was not surprised by Jiang Jie's inquiry, living in a cave is not a long-term solution after all.
"Agreed, hehe!" Jiang's parents originally planned to go to the Mengjiawan Safety Zone, and many of the families in the village who had moved away before went there, but Jiang Jie insisted on going to the capital and persuaded Jiang Tao, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother had to agree to the children's plan.
"Then we'll see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow, Sister Rong".
After the two finished speaking, they disconnected from each other.
Jiang Jie took the piece of sound transmission jade talisman and smirked, thinking that he would be able to return to the team tomorrow, he was in a good mood.
"Xiaojie, do you have a girl you like?" Jiang's mother suddenly appeared, looked at Jiang Jie with a smile on her face and asked.
"No, Mom, at this time of precariousness, where is the time to fall in love? Don't think about it, I just want to cultivate hard and strive to advance as soon as possible, and I don't want to waste my time elsewhere! Jiang Jie put the jade talisman in his pocket and said to Jiang's mother righteously.
"You're not too young, it's time to find a partner, how can this life event be a waste of time? Mom is not old and stubborn, she has to meddle in your emotional affairs, but your mother is also a person who has come over, and she can give you advice for reference, if you really have a favorite girl, you must tell the family! Jiang's mother chattered.
"Okay, mom, I know, if I have a girl I like, I'll definitely tell you!" Jiang Jie replied repeatedly, when he didn't go home, he was really homesick and missed his parents, but once he went home, no more than three days, he couldn't stay a little stunned, and he felt that no one was free outside.
"By the way, Xiaogang Xiaoyong and Xiaobing came to the house to look for you, and now they are still waiting outside our door, go back and see, is there something wrong with them?" Jiang's mother came out to find Jiang Jie because of this.
"Okay, let's go!" Jiang Jie and Jiang's mother went back to their door together, the so-called door is actually a stone wall, which was specially set aside when digging a hole.
Mother Jiang looked at the cave where she lived, and felt a little reluctant, this cave was dug out by their family of three little by little, and it was cleaned up, very warm and comfortable.
"Ajie, I heard that you promised to leave with Grandpa Wang, can you also take my grandfather!"
"Applejack, we grew up together, you loved to eat my grandma's pickles when you were a child, you brought everyone else, you can't help but bring my grandma!"
Jiang Jie didn't expect that he just promised to take Wang Yao's grandfather and grandson to the Mengjiawan safety zone, but after a meal, so many people knew the news.
A group of young people were talking nonsense, at the beginning of the last days, because of the advantage of collective hunting, the villagers got several exercise books, therefore, although they had different qualifications and different cultivation levels, most of the young people in the village were cultivators, and therefore, they could all perceive that the aura strength exuded by Jiang Jie was much higher than theirs, not to mention, Jiang Jie could go home single-handedly and bring back so many good things, which was enough to prove that he was strong.
The powerful ones in the hunting team have left one after another, and life in the cave is getting more and more difficult, and leaving with Jiang Jie may be their last chance to leave this place.
