Chapter 24: Newcomers
"How's your recovery, boy?" The Quentes arrived before they could be heard.
Qian Nian's chin was half open, and his eyes stared at the door in a daze. A burly man walked in, Quintes.
"Ah......h Not too heavy. β
"Hmm." Quintes looked at him with his arms crossed, and Qian Nian immediately straightened up from the bed.
"Excuse me...... You are? β
"My name is Quintjes, I'm the camp commander here, and you're in my human camp right now." Quintes finished speaking calmly.
"I seeβoh, my name is Nian Shen." Qian Nian spit out his name without concealment. He spoke very slowly, otherwise the part of his brain hurt badly.
"Tell me, ah."
"Did you save me?" This made Qian Nian embarrassed to cry and laugh: In front of the life-saving benefactor, he can't say that he is Uncle Ben.
"My citizens and I heard your cries for help in the grass and rushed here."
"I ...... Thank you so much. Qian Nian's mouth was a little excited, and the wry smile on his face quickly turned into a bland smile.
"Don't thank me, boy. Thanks to your ......," Quunjes nodded, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes as he looked up at the Nian Nian.
At this moment, his gaze was captured by Qian Nian, his smile froze, and all the calm was dispelled by Quintes's suspicious eyes.
His smile dried up like water, frozen in a layer of frost when the cold wave hit.
"I ......"
"Who are you and why are you in such a place? Also, that purple light from last night seems to have come from you, right? β
Quintes asked the mystery of the year by surprise, this kind of sudden and unexpected thing. Qian Nian just thought about it, but he hadn't thought about how to explain it.
Do you want to clarify your identity to Quenjes? But it doesn't matter if he's a good guy or a bad guy.
Qian Nian's lips trembled, and he was silent for a long time. "What, I didn't understand much......" he shook his head, looking up at Quences with an innocent expression.
Quunjes smiled, and he said, "It's okay, a lot of people are like that when they first come." But in the endβ"
"But in the end?" Qian Nian asked him cautiously.
"In the end, they all stayed here." Quintes said bluntly.
"Ah, why?" Qian Nian was very surprised by this.
"Why? There is no why. "Quunjes speaks with a sonorous voice, as he always does.
"Because most of the people who left here died on the way."
"It's not that serious, is it?" Qian Nian trembled and laughed twice. He straightened his hair and was about to get out of bed and leave.
"You just lie down and recuperate in peace, you're cooking outside, I'll call you to eat later." Quintes looked at Qian Nian's small movements and immediately concluded his thoughts.
This made Qian Nian very embarrassed, and he was somewhat moved in his heart. He looked at Quintes in amazement, an unnatural expression on his face.
"What do you mean ......"
"Oh, it's up to you." "If you want to stay here, you're all very welcome; If you're leaving, we'll send you to Melatel at most, and the rest is up to you. β
"That'...... I'd better stay here......" Qian Nian whispered with some shame. In the long run, even if you go out, where can you go?
The Laimi Plain is so big that it is all wilderness as far as the eye can see. If you leave this place, wouldn't it be obvious that you are dead?
"Welcome, Nian Nian." Quintes enthusiastically stepped forward and held out his hand.
"I'll explain my story to you slowly - ah, thank you, battalion commander." When Qian Nian saw this, he hurriedly reached out and held it with him.
Qian Nian's heart was like a wave on the sea, he held his hand, and his heart couldn't be calm for a long time.
