April in Wasteland Ridge is warm and cold.

The sky here is gray, and the wind brings up sand and dust like a knife cutting through the face.

Five emaciated men lay down on the hillside, not daring to show their heads.

They were wearing clothes that they didn't know the color of for a long time, some of them were too much for people to look at, and some important parts might not even be completely covered.

They all had all kinds of weapons in their hands, and they were all kinds of weapons, including homemade spears, tattered machetes, rudimentary crossbows, and even blood-stained sticks.

They secretly held their breath, looking a little nervous and a little excited.

Several people supervised each other, and no one dared to make a sound, and if anyone made a mistake and lost the previous arrangement, his companions would not spare him.

At the top of the hillside was a large net, supported by thick wooden sticks, slightly broken.

"Woooooo

The huge bird in the sky flew up the hillside again, circled a few times, and then flew away.

"For the fifth time!" All five men recorded the number in their minds.

This big bird is called the quail eagle, fat and fat, like a quail, but it is outrageous, it is one of the few birds in the Wasteland Ridge that does not take the initiative to attack humans, although it is huge, but it is very timid.

This bird has a habit of circling back and forth seven times once it finds food, and the seventh time it does not find any danger, it will be safe to hunt.

The five emaciated men all came from a nearby place called Wasteland Town, which was the outskirts of the Wasteland Star, the largest human base city in the Wasteland Ridge.

And there is a human walled city spontaneously built by displaced people in each of the four directions of the Wasteland Star, and Huangxi Town is obviously the walled city in the west.

Although there is only a wall between the city and the outside of the city, the standard of living of human beings is completely incomparable.

The humans born in the city seem to be born nobles, they have high walls to keep out the invasion of wild beasts, and they have a variety of light and heavy industries to enrich the needs of human life.

They have a grain base to supply their rations, and they have various armies and hunting squads to find meat for them.

And what about the outcasts in the walled city?

It's as if these five emaciated men are working hard for a full meal......

If it weren't for the slight snoring sound coming from the bottom of the hillside, I really wouldn't have noticed that there was still a person lying on a lawn behind the five thin men, also under the hillside.

The lawn is very well located, with plenty of sunlight and a natural haven below the hillside.

Lying on the lawn was a man, not like those five guys, this was a fat man! Visually, there are at least 180 catties facing upward.

The figure is also quite tall, estimated to be about one meter seven or eight tall.

He was wearing a brand new dark blue denim suit and a pair of dark brown boots on his feet.

At this time, he was sleeping on a travel bag.

There is still a little saliva hanging under the corners of his mouth, and the one who sleeps is called a sweet one.

Although the five men also heard the snoring, they didn't dare to pay attention to it, even if they scared the quail eagle away, they were helpless.

Because this fat man is the employer they hunted this time, named Zhao Xin, a famous fat man in Huangxi Town, after all, it is not a small miracle to be able to eat so fat in the city.

The net for this hunt was provided by the fat man himself, in order to let the five of them catch birds for him to eat.

As long as one quail eagle is caught, the fat man will provide five people with three days' rations each.

This is not the main thing, the boss will also give this big net to the five of them, like such a big net, even if it is second-hand, it can be sold for a large price of a gold coin in the walled city.

What is the concept of a gold coin core, I heard that the third aunt who was newly married by the manager of the city was bought from a high-end club in the city for a large price of ten gold coins.

Such a big stroke, that is, the famous loser Zhao Xin Zhao Gongzi in Huangxi Town can make it, right? Even the rich people in the city probably wouldn't spend such a large price just to eat a bird.

"Woooooo

When the quail eagle hovered over the high slope for the sixth time, Zhao Xin, who was lying on the lawn and falling asleep, seemed to be woken up by the sound of birds, turned over and rubbed his eyes, and got up a little slowly.

Raising his wrist, he looked at Vacheron Constantin, which he had bought from a city officer a few days ago, and the hands were indicating the position of 3:15.

Looking up again, he glanced at the five men lying halfway up the hillside, like five rags, took out a box of local cigarettes from Wasteland Ridge from his jacket pocket, took one out and put it in his mouth, lit it, and took a deep breath.

Feeling the filling sensation of smoke passing through his lungs, he looked at the fat quail eagle in the sky.

This cosy feeling is simply a beautiful scenery in this dangerous wasteland world.

"Woo woo woo ......"

When the quail eagle skimmed the hillside for the seventh time, the five people lying halfway up the hillside were all nervous at the same time.

The excitement was palpable, but they all restrained themselves from making a sound.

No one wants to let a day's efforts go to waste at this time, after all, this is still related to the future life of these five brothers, once the net is earned, life can be expected from now on!

After the fat size of the quail eagle circled the sky a few times, finally Annai could not hold back the craving for food, and swooped down on the food under the net, which was specially made and did not see so clearly in the eyes of the birds.

Really!

"Woooooo With a whistling sound, the quail duck plunged headlong into the great net that had been prepared for it.

"Huh!"

Five emaciated men burst out at an unnatural speed.

Almost at the same time jumped up!

The big bird stuck in the net kept struggling, and the five men came to it quickly, and the guy in his hand slammed directly at the quail eagle's vital point.

The quail stopped struggling after holding on for no more than thirty seconds.

From the time the quail enters the net to the time the quail swallows, the process takes less than a minute and a half.

The reason why they are so fast is because they are afraid that the struggling giant bird will break the net.

Although the quail is caught in a net, it is not a bird of prey.

But this series of reactions and the tacit understanding of cooperation made Zhao Xin can't help but applaud, this is the wasteland, this is the wasteland people who are struggling to survive in the wasteland.

By the time Zhao Xin walked slowly, as if he had climbed to the top of the slope with difficulty, the five guys had already put away the sticky net.

Gao Kui, the leader, grinned and shouted, "Mr. Zhao! Mr. Zhao! Look at it! This bird has been caught by us! ”

Without stopping as he spoke, he bled the quail eagle, of course, he was reluctant to waste the blood, used a big pot to catch the blood, and then commanded Zheng Xiaoxuan, the youngest of the four, "Xiaoxuan, boil water!" ”

"Great!" When Zheng Xiaoxuan heard this, he took out a large cauldron, which was enough to hold the fat body of the quail eagle, found a dead branch to set up the pot, lit a fire, and added water to the pot.

The third Wang Yao also found a clean wooden pier and asked Zhao Xin to sit down.

"Mr. Zhao! Please take a seat! The simple Wang Yao didn't know where the words came from, and said flatteringly.

These are all prepared before coming, the people of Wasteland Ridge are diligent, not afraid of trouble, and always prepared!

In less than a few minutes, the water was already boiling, Gao Kui put the quail eagle that had been cleaned of blood into the pot, and then waited for about ten minutes, the boss Gao Kui took out the scalded quail eagle and plucked it.

Pull it out with your bare hands, as if the boiling water is not hot.

The speed of pulling is fast.

The old god Zhao Xin was sitting on the wooden pier and smoking.

Looking at the busy scene of everyone, I felt a satisfaction in my heart.

As soon as a cigarette was smoked, Gao Kui had already plucked his feathers, and the quail eagle, who basically couldn't tell what kind of bird it was, mentioned it to Zhao Xin.

With a signature smile, Gao Kui said flatteringly: "Mr. Zhao, this bird has been killed!" It's clean, Mr. Zhao, take a look! ”

Zhao Xin took the quail eagle, looked at it briefly, and praised: "Good job!" As he spoke, he took out five silver coins from his bag.

This is a silver coin minted by the Wasteland Star, and one silver coin is enough to feed the city for three days, even if it is in the city, it can be a small next restaurant.

As always, Zhao Xin handed each silver coin to the hands of the five people in turn, listening to their mouths "Thank you, Mr. Zhao!" The sound is very comfortable!

A kind of pleasure of helping others spreads from Zhao's confidence, and that is called a satisfaction!

The five of them carefully hid the silver coins, and Zhao Xin was a little amused when they looked at their unclothed appearance.

At this time, Gao Kui bowed slightly and asked carefully: "Mr. Zhao, look, what is the water of this bird and the blood of this bird!" ”

Zhao Xin suddenly said that he didn't care about these things, but after all, this was blood food, especially this bird's blood, and it was also a delicacy to go home and make a blood tofu.

In particular, the birds and beasts on this wasteland are spiritual, and their nutritional value is extremely high.

Ordinary walled city people and homeless people are not eligible for it at all.

Zhao Xin waved his fat hand: "It's dirty!" Take it away! ”

When Gao Kui heard this, his smile almost didn't reach the root of his ears, and he bowed a little exaggeratedly: "Thank you Zhao for rewarding!" ”

The four friends also waved at Zhao Xin, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for the reward!" ”

With the five people quickly cleaning up the battlefield, in the end, even the hair that was plucked was picked up by Zheng Xiaoxuan, saying that he wanted to go back to tie a hair duster.

Decorate all the things you bring and the harvest, and go back to the village!

There is a cart under the hillside, when it comes, it is loaded with a large net and various utensils, the fourth Cui vigorously pushes the cart, Zhao Xin sits on the car, and the other four people are two in front and two behind, the car and Zhao Xin are surrounded in the middle, and they are heading in the direction of the big city in the distance.

Zhao Xin sat in the car and smoked while looking at the scenery along the way, this is the end of the world, this is the wasteland, although it is very different from the world in his previous memory, but people are still people.

People will fight for their survival......
