Chapter 121: Ordinary
The roar that tore through the sky spread in all directions.
Wang Hao and the others looked up, and there seemed to be a brilliant sun rising in the sky.
"What's that? Missiles, this distance, what a terrifying yield! The pipe, who is most familiar with this, sighed.
Farther away, this was also a gathering place for humans, and Ji Songshi withdrew from his cultivation state, exhaling a long breath of qi, which rolled in the air, like a swimming dragon.
He got up and was about to drink when he keenly sensed a ripple on the surface of the water in the cup on the table.
Ji Songshi suddenly felt a palpitation, and he had no intention of cultivating, he looked into the distance, as if something bad had happened......
Among the warriors who participated in the extermination operation in Yunnan Province, a news quickly spread that a large-yield explosive explosion was suspected to have occurred more than 200 kilometers north-west of the Nanban Forest.
Warriors have different opinions, some say it was a missile attack by the military, some say that the government committed a big taboo and used nuclear weapons that should have been abolished despite the continued deterioration of the environment, and still others say that some peerless powerhouse died here with the enemy.
The next day, a large group of warriors went to the explosion site to find out, but they only saw a deep pit more than 20 meters deep and more than 200 meters in diameter, and the soil in the pit was charred black.
Other than that, nothing was found.
There are no alien beasts or human wreckage, no missile fragments, and this incident has become the most talked about thing after tea and dinner for a long time after this incident.
…………
Three days after the incident, about 30 kilometers from the site of the explosion, there was a very small human settlement.
Compared with the No. 131 human gathering place in Yunnan Province, which has been breached, this gathering place is much simpler, only dozens of tents have been set up on the back slope of a huge stone forest, and the periphery of the tent is nailed with wooden stakes, which are connected by iron wires, and animal skins and iron shells are hung on the wires, forming the most basic outer layer of protection.
With this kind of protection, I'm afraid that a G-class alien beast can easily break away!
"Brother Lou, they're back!"
"Brother Lou!"
Outside the gathering place, a group of men returned from outside, as if they were in a primitive society, with no shadow of civilization on their bodies, and they all carried bows and arrows.
The leader was a swarthy and simple man, who carried a hunting knife on his back and a two-meter-long sheep beast on his shoulder.
Seeing the sheep on the back of the simple man, a cheer rang out in the gathering place, and the women and girls among them quickly surrounded them to greet their heroes.
"Uncle Ah Lou is the best, yes, and there is meat to eat!" Several half-year-old children chattered around the simple man, watching the sheep saliva on his back flow uncontrollably, and a few children couldn't help but dance.
Slowly, more and more people gathered, singing, dancing and laughing. The girls showed their beauty with their dancing without shiness, causing the men around them to whistle, but there was no hint of lewdness.
The simplicity and optimism of human nature, even in such difficulties, will dance because of a bowl of hot soup and a mouthful of hot rice.
Their happiness is so simple and unpretentious.
Brother Lou hugged his wife and daughter who came closely, looking at the faces, he showed a satisfied smile, this is the meaning of his existence.
"Dad, you said you were going to see the explosion again..."His wife was not as carefree as the others, and as the wife of the only warrior in the gathering, she knew that it had not been peaceful lately.
Brother Lou shook his head: "It's nothing unusual, but there are a lot of martial artists in the vicinity, so everyone should not go out recently, and the hunter team will also have a few days off, and wait for the wind to pass." ”
"The food..."
"I'll figure it out!"
After a while, the singing and dancing stopped, and everyone was watching him.
Brother Alou raised his arms and shouted: "Make a fire, cook!" ”
"Roar!!"
"Hoo!!"
The people were busy, and soon a fire was lit, and a huge pot rose up in the open space between the many tents, and the mutton was divided by the hunters and lowered into the water, and not even the haggis was wasted.
A child took advantage of the curiosity of the adults to pick up two ball-sized eggs, leaned over and sniffed them, and was slapped on the head by the elders next to him, snatched the two balls, and threw them into the pot.
The funny appearance of the child covering his head once again attracted everyone's laughter.
Not only for half an hour, but the smell of meat filled the entire camp.
The women carefully pulled out a little bit of coarse salt, which they had bought from the large gathering place, and put it in the pot.
Quite a few swallowed.
But there was no one to fight, and according to the rules, the food would be distributed by Brother Alou, so that everyone in the gathering place, whether old or weak, women and children, could get a fair share of the meat.
Allougo drew a long knife and stepped forward, and the people lined up and stepped forward one by one, each holding a large bowl made of crude clay in his hand.
When everyone approached, Brother Allou would remove a piece of meat from the pot and put it in their bowl, which would be filled with a bowl of hot mutton soup.
Women, children, and the elderly, Brother Lou would share two fist-sized meats, while the men would get more, and the stronger the more, and there was even an equally strong woman who got a piece of lamb chops the size of a human face.
It's not that he's eccentric, but that the livelihood of the gathering place is entirely dependent on hunting, and ensuring that the hunters have enough physical strength is the most important thing.
"Brother Lou, give me more, this palm-sized meat can't be eaten at all!" A thin, equally swarthy man clung to it, begging with a dead face.
"Go, go!" Brother Ah Lou waved his hand impatiently, "You kid is lazy to eat every day, and you still want to share meat?" If your father hadn't died heroically while hunting, I would have kicked you out! ”
The thin man was startled when he saw that Brother Ah Lou was about to get angry, and was about to leave, but was stopped.
Brother Lou cut off a small piece of sheep lung with disgust on his face and put it in his bowl, his mouth was fiercely reprimanded, but his heart was still very kind.
The thin man thanked him repeatedly, ran to the side happily with a bowl, took a bite of meat and a mouthful of soup, and feasted on it.
After distributing the meat to everyone, Brother Alo cut off a fist-sized piece of meat and put it in his bowl, and poured some of the remaining water that others didn't like to eat.
Everyone looked at him with love and respect in their eyes, this was their Brother Lou, as the strongest person in this small camp, Brother Lou didn't eat as much as ordinary men.
He always smiled and said that he was a martial artist and didn't need to eat so much.
This is true, warriors are indeed more hungry than others, and their stomachs can absorb food more fully. But correspondingly, if a martial artist wants to break through, want to increase qi and blood, and eat, it is definitely an important part of it.
But Brother Lou doesn't care so much, his talent is limited, compared to his own insignificant improvement, he is more willing to let the big guy eat more, after all, if he is really open to eat, he can eat half of this sheep by himself.
"Yuanyuan!" Aluk beckoned to her daughter.
A five or six-year-old little girl with two pigtails reluctantly put down the meat in her hand, wiped her oily mouth, and ran to Brother Lou's side one by one.
"Abba!"
Brother Lou picked up the last piece of meat from the pot, this is a piece of lamb leg meat, the most essence, long enough for people's forearms, with bones, stewed to crystal clear, this meat out of the pot, many people around looked over, and instantly felt that the meat in their bowl was not fragrant.
Brother Ah Lou put the meat into a big bowl, filled the bowl with mutton soup, touched his daughter's head and handed it to her: "Yuanyuan, go, send it to the uncle in the house, see if he is awake, look at the morning and look like he should be awake now... Hold it steady and don't sprinkle it.
"Oh...", Yuanyuan was broken, his big watery eyes stared straight at the leg of mutton, the little appearance that resisted impulse, tiger-headed and cute.
"Don't steal it!" Brother Alou glared at her.
"Oh......"
The little girl walked slowly with a big wrist half her body, but she inherited Brother Lou's excellent physical talent, and her strength was not small at a young age.
The people around looked enviously, but no one refuted it, even this food was called by Brother Lou almost by himself, how to distribute it, others couldn't interject, everyone focused on their own bowls.
Contentment is bliss!
Yuan Yuan carried a large bowl, walked to a large tent like a yurt, turned around and lined up the curtain of the tent with his little buttocks, and walked in with the bowl.
"Uncle, uncle! You're awake, Yuanyuan has brought you something to eat! ”
(Ahem, it's really not about the number of words in the water, but I don't want to write this book simply as a story about the protagonist fighting monsters and upgrading by himself, but from multiple angles, unfolding a picture of all beings in troubled times.) In this world, there are people who swim against the current, and naturally there are ordinary people who struggle to survive.
Immerse yourself in it and enjoy reading... )
