Chapter 7: Newcomers
The five newcomers stared at Lu Ming and the others with a little nervousness. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The wife of the middle-aged couple held her husband's arm tightly, half of her body was hidden behind her husband's back, the other three also looked a little restrained, and the thin young man kept clasping his hands.
At this time, the husband said, "We met last night, I know that you have been here for a short time, and you have experienced some things, so there are some things I want to ask you for, can you see it?" The man's posture was lowered.
Lu Ming stood up, smiled and waved his hand: "We're not so scary, you don't have to be so nervous, everyone is now the only surviving earthlings in this world, and we should support each other." Even if you don't come to us, we will go to you, after all, the next time the Trick Realm is about to begin, and most of the people here will have to fight side by side, so we can be considered comrades-in-arms. Okay, everybody, sit down, and ask if there's anything you want. β
The five of them didn't expect Lu Ming to be so easy-going and enthusiastic. To be honest, what they were most afraid of was Lu Ming, one reason was that the tone and content of Lu Ming's speech last night made them feel frightened, and the other reason was that the woman in red had a special attitude towards Lu Ming. There is one thing that Lu Ming himself doesn't know, last night it was the woman in red who insisted on waiting for him to come before starting to introduce the newcomer, and she laughed at Lu Ming the most in her words, which made Lu Ming's identity even more mysterious.
After getting permission, the five newcomers sat around Lu Ming and the others, but none of them dared to speak first. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Meng Da took the lead and said: "A few of us were introduced more or less yesterday, the kid next to me is called Gao Yu, and he is a college student. Do you want to introduce yourself first? β
Several people looked at each other, and it was the husband of the couple who spoke first. "Then I'll talk about the two of us first, my name is Liang Hansheng, 42 years old this year, this is my lover Zhu Wenli, and the two of us are lecturers at Capital Medical University."
As several people introduced themselves one after another, Lu Ming and the others finally had a general understanding of these newcomers. Liang Hansheng and his wife are not only lecturers, but also sit in various hospitals in the capital all the year round, which can be regarded as a model of combining theory and practice in medical skills. Especially Liang Hansheng is still a surgeon, and he is very interested in the treatment of trauma, which makes Lu Ming and them very happy, after all, the profession of doctor is popular everywhere, especially in this situation, surgeons are even more popular. Therefore, everyone's impression and attitude towards Liang Hansheng and his wife are very good.
The middle-aged man with a big belly is named Li Weifu, who looks to be in his 40s, and his identity is actually the deputy director of the Environmental Protection Bureau of the city where Lu Ming used to be. However, in front of Lu Ming and the others, he seemed quite low-key, did not show any official arrogance, and spoke very simply.
The thin young man is called Liu Ding, in his 20s, he used to be a waiter in a seafood restaurant, he always looks submissive, and he has always lowered his head and clasped his hands when he speaks, and he has no characteristics.
The last one is a dark-skinned young man named Shaq, 28 years old, according to his own introduction, he is a coach of an outdoor sports organization, and often organizes some white-collar workers who love to travel to climb mountains, ride bicycles or something, and the whole person looks very energetic.
After introducing each other, everyone chatted a few more words, but the topic inevitably talked about the upcoming strange situation. Lu Ming and the others described the most basic rules of the Trick Realm and the situation of the last Trick Realm to a few newcomers, but they didn't mention a word about some of the topics discussed last night and Lu Ming's new ability.
"You mean, we're going to that one this time ... Is that a strange realm? Liang Hansheng asked worriedly.
"To be honest, I don't know. But there is a great possibility that the vast majority of you here can't avoid it, last time we were also 10 people here, and in the end the master selected 9 people to go, only Gao Yu was not selected. Based on this probability, it is estimated that you are likely to all go this time. Lu Ming knew his worries, but he was helpless.
"Have you found any way to circumvent it, or ... Or is there a secret to getting through the realm? Liu Ding asked weakly.
"Circumvention is impossible, and this in itself violates the most basic rules, and the Juggernaut will certainly not allow it. As for the secret to passing through the realmγγγγγ Gao Yu deliberately elongated his voice and said, "Of course, it's not nothing, to be honest, a few of us also discussed it last night, if you want to successfully pass through the tricky realm and improve everyone's survival rate, the only way is to unite!" And to achieve the goal of unity, we must choose a captain to lead everyone. After a few of us discussed it, we decided to choose Lu Ming, what are your opinions? Gao Yu suddenly raised his voice again.
There is no way for Gao Yu to be so strong, and everyone has already discussed the election of Lu Ming as the captain last night. But who's going to talk to these newcomers? Lu Ming himself can't do it, that's too much? Luo Shui cleared the other than Lu Ming, and the others were simply cold to death. The old ghost only knows how to smoke vigorously, and he is usually too lazy to talk, as for Meng Daγγγγγ Hey, forget it. After thinking about it, Gao Yu felt that he was the only one who could be the one who took the lead. In addition, Gao Yu also has his own selfishness, after all, he and Lu Ming came here in the same batch, although he did not experience the last trick with Lu Ming, but it is much more reliable to find a relatively knowledgeable person to be the captain than to find a newcomer, so that he will have a certain say in the team in the future, he doesn't want to fight for anything, but he hates to hand over his fate to unstable factors.
"You've all said that, of course we're okay." Li Da Fat said angrily, after all, he used to be a leader and had been pretending to be a grandson for a while, but he was still not used to Gao Yu's way of speaking, but he also understood his own situation in his heart, so he could only complain a few words.
The rest of the people didn't have his emotions, and they all quickly agreed. After all, everyone is not a fool, if the Trick Realm is really as dangerous as they described, then now it is only Lu Ming and a few experienced people who can keep them safe for a while, and what they are most worried about is that Lu Ming will use them as cannon fodder.
Seeing that everyone had no different opinions, Lu Ming said in a deep voice: "Okay, let me say a few words." I refused the position of captain at first, but it is true that as Gao Yu said, in order to survive in the next strange realm, we must unite and have the ability to execute, so the captain is indispensable. To be honest, I don't dare to guarantee whether I can be a good captain or not, because it is also my first time, but I promise that since I am in this position, I will definitely treat you as teammates, and I will not abandon or give up on anyone, and I will do my best to lead everyone out of the strange situation!"
"But the ugly words are ahead." Lu Ming then said, "Since you have chosen me as the captain, you must obey my orders, you can ask why before doing anything, but after asking, you have to do it, and you must do it well, we may not be able to do the same orders and prohibitions as the troops, but I don't want to hear discordant voices in the team, and I can't tolerate villains stabbed in the back." β
Lu Ming's words have no big truth, no flowery rhetoric, and no unrealistic blueprint, but every word reveals a sincere and down-to-earth feeling. Perhaps the simple words played a role, and the newcomers quickly made their positions clear, nothing more than some people who resolutely supported Lu Ming, resolutely surrounded the Tricky Realm team headed by Comrade Lu Ming, unswervingly implemented all the action plans and instructions of Captain Lu, and took unity as the goal of successfully escaping the Tricky Realm, forging ahead, fighting tenaciously, and working hardγγγγγγ Especially the big fat man Li, who was still complaining in a whisper just now, and in a blink of an eye, he looked like a confidant was dead, which made everyone sigh, this official is really not something that ordinary people can do!!
Next, everyone discussed some details of the problem, and combined with the characteristics of each person for a simple division of tasks, after all, no one knows when the next trick will come, maybe ten days and half a month, maybe tomorrow! Therefore, early preparation can undoubtedly provide more security for future survival.
Meng Da and Shaq were assigned to purchase outdoor supplies, one of them was an athlete and the other was a senior outdoor coach, and they were still relatively clear about what to prepare.
Shui Qing, Li Da Fatzi, and Liu Ding were arranged to purchase supplies, after all, they were in a strange situation, and without outside support, the supply of food and water was very important.
Gao Yu and Liang Hansheng were arranged to purchase some first-aid medicines, the danger in the strange realm determines that injuries are inevitable, and in addition to the various injuries that will be punished by the master will automatically heal after leaving the secret realm, other injuries and illnesses need to be treated in time, otherwise it is not impossible to be so serious that they will be disabled. Fortunately, there are two experienced medical teachers this time, Liang Hansheng and his wife, at least in terms of medical security, you don't have to worry too much.
As for the old ghost, he was assigned a "heavy job" to get some weapons in this world, preferably with a gun!! Although guns are dangerous goods, they are undoubtedly the biggest reassurance for a group of people who are already in such a situation. Although the gun management in most places in the world is as strict as Lu Ming's previous Huaxia country, and private gun ownership is strictly prohibited, but just as where there is light, there must be darkness, there are always some ways to try to get some contraband, so this burden can only be handed over to the "experienced" old ghost.
As for Lu Ming, he is responsible for commanding in the center and responding at any time. In fact, he practiced his true eye in the room, striving to practice to the state of free retraction before departure.
The days of peace lasted for a week, and it was impossible to avoid what should have come, and when everyone was asleep late that night, a majestic voice appeared in the minds of the nine people in the villa area:
