Chapter 107: Sharpening the Spear in Battle

The cool breeze is blowing, the moon is in the sky, the summer night sky is full of stars, and the strange insect chirping sound is heard from the bushes in the distance from time to time, the sound is piercing and sharp, it seems to be similar to the call of the summer cicada, but the decibel is several times larger than the summer cicada.

At this time, under this night sky with bushes, a meandering ribbon of shimmering silver light was quietly trickling, echoing the strange cicadas chirping around, forming a unique wild symphony, and on the edge of the water flow, which was about five or six meters wide, there was a group of eleven people walking slowly by the starlight, and from time to time they would look for a treasure in the current, as if they were searching for some treasure.

Walking in the middle of the procession was a rather sturdy figure of a young man, who looked about twenty-five or sixteen years old, at this time he was engrossed in observing the river in front of him, and from time to time he would look back into the distance, with a contemplative state of thought, as if he had something on his mind, and the ten figures in front of him and behind him were all fourteen or fifteen years old without exception, and they were all thin and weak.

From time to time, the young man glanced back and saw that the place he was looking at was about seven or eight miles away from where their group was, and that it was the site of a town with many ruins of buildings.

From a distance, the town was in full flames and crowds, not only with a dozen blazing bonfires, but also with the shouts and slogans of some adult men from time to time, and it was not known whether these people were working or practicing martial arts.

The eleven people in this group by the river are Chen Xiao and the others who migrated all the way from Panlong Town, and the sturdy young man is naturally Chen Xiao, at this time he is leading Zhang Jing and other members of the energy detective team to search carefully around this small river, hoping to get some energy crystals that have not been discovered by other creatures.

Before, Chen Xiao and others were halfway up, and accidentally met Wu Dongsheng and others who were active in N County, and then tried every possible way to persuade these men to come, hoping that they could go to X City with them to develop, but fortunately, the hard work paid off.

After Chen Xiao and others followed Wu Dongsheng to the camp located in the county seat of N County, they first briefly inspected their living environment and material supply, and then got to know and understand the women and children left behind in the camp, and also explained to them the future prospects of the ethnic group, which greatly encouraged their confidence and courage in the current life.

After doing all this, it was already six or seven o'clock in the evening, thinking that everyone had been busy for a day without eating, Chen Xiao ordered everyone to solve the dinner problem first, and after the meal, all departments began to implement the tasks he had arranged before, and also gave everyone strict requirements, that is, when to complete the task and when to sleep.

After dinner, Chen Xiao couldn't help but nod with a look of relief when he saw that the big guys were rushing to work, he could also see everyone's strong expectations for the future life and a deep sense of crisis about the current living environment, and everyone can adapt to this cruel fast-paced life as soon as possible.

As soon as Chen Xiao saw that everyone was so conscious, he naturally didn't dare to be idle, and after asking Wu Dongsheng about the location of some rivers and water sources in N County, he set off with the energy detective team in a hurry, wanting to continue to look for energy crystals day and night, so as to enhance the strength of him and his companions, and it can be regarded as preparing to go to X City to sharpen guns!

Before leaving, he also transferred two teenagers from Wu Dongsheng's camp to replenish some manpower for the energy detective team in a timely manner.

By the time Chen Xiao and his entourage found the first river, it was already eight or nine o'clock in the evening, but fortunately, the stars were shining tonight, the moon was like a mirror, and Chen Xiao's extraordinary eyesight did not affect the group's search for spars.

Chen Xiao observed the stationing of the clan in the county seat of N County from time to time, and then listened to the training slogans of many men of the escort team and the hunting team, and his heart was naturally very happy, it seemed that Xiao Guo was still relatively obedient, and he was really meticulously organizing the training, so that he could also go to find the spar with peace of mind.

After Chen Xiao became farther and farther away from the county seat of N County, he gradually stopped paying attention to the situation of the ethnic group's station, but took Zhang Jing and others to seriously search for the spar, and went all the way along the river to the source of the river, and the more they went to the upstream of the river, they found that the fish and shrimp in the river became more and more rare, so the probability of them finding the spar gradually increased, and sometimes they were lucky enough to find one or two spars that were not easy to be found by fish from a narrow gap in the riverbed.

The reason why Chen Xiao was able to find the spars in the cracks of the riverbed was also due to his growing strength, because the strength of Zhang Jing and others was relatively weak, so every time he observed the bottom of the river, he would intentionally or unintentionally bless the energy to his eyes, so that his eyesight was greatly strengthened, and he could also find some strange things in some blind spots that ordinary people could not see.

After Chen Xiao led the energy detective team to find the upper reaches of a river, he would stop and turn to other water sources, because if he continued to look for it, he would leave the range of N County, and the source of a river was often in the mountains, so they didn't have much time to cross the mountains now.

In order to save time, they selectively searched the upper reaches of some rivers, and did not leave the surrounding area of N County rashly anyway, mainly for fear that they would not be able to return to the stationing place of the tribe in time, thus delaying tomorrow's trip.

So, the night's time slowly ended in the painstaking search of Chen Xiao and others, and when the morning sun slowly rose on the horizon, they also successfully returned to the station in the county seat of N County, and above the station at this time, it was already a busy scene of cooking smoke curling and people flickering.

Chen Xiao and the others through a night of painstaking searching, although it is not a lot of gains, but it is also a trip in vain, compared to the harvest of the previous night, they have increased unabated tonight, all of them add up, there are about one hundred and thirty energy spars, including thirty or forty brightly colored emerald green spars, at this time they are all lying quietly in the big iron oil tank behind Chen Xiao.

And Zhang Jing and the other teenagers hung heavy snakeskin bags on their bodies, which contained a large number of mutated fish and shrimp, etc., which were all hunted and killed by the way when Chen Xiao and others were looking for spars, and a group of eleven people not only divided the energy crystal nuclei of these fish and shrimp, but also carried their corpses back, so as to reserve more food for the clan.

After seeing Chen Xiao and others come back, Guo Zirong, Wu Dongsheng, Ma Ying and other management personnel hurriedly came over to greet them, and reported on the completion of the tasks of various departments last night.

Hearing that all departments have completed their assigned tasks as promised, Chen Xiao naturally praised with a happy face, and also made a detailed understanding of the preparations before the migration of the ethnic group, when he learned that everyone had packed their luggage properly, and the remaining materials in the ethnic group were also ordered, Chen Xiao nodded with satisfaction again and again, and then ordered everyone to bury the pot and make rice, and when breakfast was served, everyone headed towards X City.

Just when Chen Xiao was casually observing the dozen or so simple residences built by Wu Dongsheng and others with cement blocks, bricks and other materials on the station, and secretly wondering which area to settle down in after going to X City, the little fat man's voice sounded very abruptly from behind him, with a mysterious tone.

"Brother Xiao! Come here! Tell you something! You're absolutely interested, hehe! Fatty, I've made a great contribution this time! ”

"Oh? What's the matter? So mysterious? Could it be that you have a crush on which girl again? I'm telling you, I don't have the heart to mind your personal affairs right now! There's a lot to do! ”

After Chen Xiao heard the little fat man's words, he couldn't help but be stunned, and then turned his head with a puzzled face, and found that the little fat man was squeezing his eyebrows at him, and after a smug gesture, he suddenly sneered at each other with a funny face, and a mocking tone.

"I said, Brother Xiao! Is a fat man so unreliable in your eyes? Am I the kind of idiot who thinks about women every day? Let me tell you, this matter is a big thing that will work for a thousand years, let me tell you the bottom first, this matter has something to do with energy! If you're not interested, forget it! ”

When the little fat man heard Chen Xiao's ridiculous words, he immediately became angry, and then retorted a few words with a dissatisfied face, and also made a threat with a smug face.

"Something to do with energy? What's the matter? Say it! If you dare to shake me, I'll let you go to the logistics department to wash the pots and dishes every day! I do what I say! ”

As soon as Chen Xiao heard the word energy, his nerves immediately tensed, and then he asked sharply with a hurried expression, with a threatening posture.

"I said, surnamed Chen, you are too ruthless! I haven't said it yet? You just scare me! Originally, I thought that I would tell you this good thing first, and you would praise me well, but I didn't expect you to be so arrogant! I don't want to say it! Besides, can't you just be quiet? What's wrong with being afraid that others won't hear? ”

When the little fat man heard Chen Xiao's cruel words, his tone suddenly froze, and then he complained with a sad expression, looking aggrieved.

"I don't care, since you have aroused my interest, you have to make it clear, otherwise you will have to wash the pots and wash the dishes, if what you said is really valuable, not only will I not punish you, but I will reward you well, you also know what I am going to do these two nights, right?"

After Chen Xiao saw the embarrassment of the little fat man, he still continued to threaten with a stiff face, looking silent, and after seeing the little fat man's speechless pitiful expression, he changed his tone and seduced him step by step, with the face of a treacherous politician who was both gracious and powerful.

"Good, good! Aren't you awesome? There are a lot of people here, you come with me first, and when you get to a place where there is no one, I'll explain it to you! Remember your promise! ”

When the little fat man heard Chen Xiao stretch out an olive branch, he couldn't help but soften miserably, and then whispered to Chen Xiao with a cautious expression, and his figure also walked slowly towards the periphery of the clan camp, and his eyes showed a touch of fiery color from time to time......
