The sun was fading, and the night on the moor was about to fall again.

"The wind is just right tonight, the wind is blowing into the valley, you can eat barbecue!" After measuring the wind direction a little, Zhao Xiaochuan suddenly became a little happy, he had been eating simple dry food for several days, and a bird was about to fade out of his mouth, it was time to eat some meat to improve his life.

The wind is blowing into the valley, Dad said that this should be called the hillside wind and not the valley wind, as if there is some kind of thermal circulation and the like, but this knowledge is obviously a little difficult for Zhao Xiaochuan children who grow up on the wasteland, now in this era, going to school has become a luxury, there is indeed a so-called school in the town, but there are very few people who go to class, after all, not everyone can pay high tuition fees and half of the labor force!

That's right, even a child, in this era, can be regarded as half a labor force.

Find some work, at least in exchange for your own rations.

And Zhao Xiaochuan, naturally, will not go to a place like the academy, most of the knowledge he knows is heard from his father and the old bald head, although many things are half-understood, but it is barely enough. It's like although he doesn't know what a thermal cycle is, but he just needs to know that he can barbecue and eat it when this kind of wind blows!

Because this kind of wind only flows in the valley, and the area of this valley is not small, and the passage into the valley is relatively long, so the wind does not carry the smell of barbecue meat outside the valley, which will cause some unnecessary trouble.

After the process of searching for the two-headed cow in the previous week, the meat of the red-eyed gray rabbits that Zhao Xiaochuan had distributed at the beginning had already been eaten. And even if you don't eat it all, you have to spoil it, after all, although the sealed box is said to have a sealing effect, but after all, it is not so advanced, and the meat will still deteriorate after a long time.

And now the meat that Zhao Xiaochuan carries with him is re-hunted and replenished later, and the amount is not very large, and there are about three catties left in total.

Being on the wasteland, coupled with the two helpers of Little Gray and Iron Claw Eagle, it was still very easy for Zhao Xiaochuan to continue hunting some meat, so he didn't need to save, so he directly set up a fire and began to roast wild roe meat.

This animal's combat effectiveness was not very strong before it was born, but its agility was very good, especially the speed of jumping was very fast, which also caused its meat to be very strong and fat, and this piece of meat in Zhao Xiaochuan's hand was still the best part - hind leg meat!

Put it on the fire and roast it, and put a little salt that I bought before leaving the town, it is simply delicious!

"Whew~! Refreshing! ”

.......

"Captain, wait! There's a fire ahead! And just when Zhao Xiaochuan was eating meat, outside this valley, Li Shan and his party were moving forward cautiously.

Since she was unfamiliar with the surrounding environment, even an experienced pathfinder like Jona had only now found a valley that was suitable for the night.

But what they didn't expect was that when they reached the outskirts of the valley, they found that the inside had already been occupied one step in advance.

"Captain, what are we going to do?" Jona suddenly looked nervous, usually in the wasteland, if you encounter this situation, unless both sides are more familiar, otherwise if the latecomer doesn't want to provoke a war, she needs to take the initiative to back down!

After all, on the wasteland, everyone generally comes out to hunt, and both sides carry some valuable prey, and no one dares to guarantee that the other party will not have any dissent!

But this time, Joanna didn't really want to back down.

Now that it's almost all dark, it's too dangerous to find another place to spend the night!

Especially in such a completely unfamiliar environment!

"I'll go over and talk to the other party! If you can..."Li Shan naturally knew Qiao Na's concerns, nodded, and took the lead in walking towards the valley in front: "It's best to spend this night together in this valley peacefully!" If not... The only way to subdue the other party is to subdue them first, and we will give them some compensation tomorrow! ”

"Big brother! We're going with you! Li He and the others in the back glanced at each other, worried about the safety of Li Shan going alone, and hurriedly followed behind!

........

"What!? Someone's coming!? ”

Zhao Xiaochuan, who was feasting, suddenly received the news from the Iron Claw Eagle in mid-air, and was shocked!

"How many people are on the other side!? How is the combat effectiveness!? Forehead.... Can't you count? ”

Feeling the information transmitted by the Iron Claw Eagle, Zhao Xiaochuan was suddenly helpless, sure enough, the advanced knowledge of mathematics (counting) was still too profound for the Iron Claw Eagle.

"It's too late to dodge!" Zhao Xiaochuan frowned, looking at the fire he had set up and the barbecue that he hadn't finished eating, it was impossible to hide it at this time!

And since the other party has already arrived in the valley, he must have seen the fire he lit, but if he still chooses to enter the valley regardless of the rules, he is ready to fight! If you try to hide your traces at this time, it will be too weak, and maybe there will be an even more unfavorable situation.

"Iron Claw, ready to fight! It's fine if the other party is willing to live in peace, but if you don't want to..."Zhao Xiaochuan's eyes were cold, he really wanted to try, can human corpses be sacrificed to the system.

In the wasteland, human beings are just a strange prey.

"Hello friends in the valley, in Xia Li Mountain, I am the leader of the hunting team in the town attached to Vault 93, and now it is getting late, I wonder if we can enter the valley and rest for the night? We have absolutely no ill will! ”

A hearty voice came from a little farther away, and Zhao Xiaochuan's eyes could also see a few figures faintly in the night.

"Li Shan's hunting squad? How did they end up here? ”

Zhao Xiaochuan frowned, this place was already far away from the refuge, even if it was hunting two-headed cows, they shouldn't appear in this position!

But now is not the time to think about this, Zhao Xiaochuan cleared his throat and let himself try to be as deep and cold as possible, which is also a skill he learned from his father to deal with others.

Whenever he encountered other hunting teams, even when he was in the Zhou Tian team before, Zhao Xiaochuan would show a deep and cold state, in order to maintain his sense of mystery.

Dad called this technique "pretending to be compared", Zhao Xiaochuan didn't understand it very well, he preferred to call it bluffing.

Sometimes, being able to bluff people is also a kind of ability.

"Since it is fate to meet, the place in this valley is very large, Captain Li should come in and rest together."

"Thank you!" Li Shan nodded calmly, but still did not relax, and in the sound of ropes, he carefully led his team members into the valley, and did not relax his vigilance in the slightest.

Sometimes, it is not necessarily true kindness to allow them to go into the valley to rest.

"Huh? This brother is only one person? ”

However, after entering the valley, Li Shan was suddenly slightly stunned, it was rare to wander alone in the wasteland these days!

This kind of person is either a master or an idiot.

"I'm used to being alone." Zhao Xiaochuan nodded, just about to continue to pretend to maintain his sense of mystery, but at this moment, Li He behind Li Shan suddenly took a step forward with a puzzled face, staring at Zhao Xiaochuan up and down by the light of the fire, and suddenly showed a look of surprise:

"You! Aren't you the same Zhao Xiaochuan who lived in the old bald house before!? Why are you here!? ”

Zhao Xiaochuan: "......."
