Chapter 5: Camp Blackwood

"These places have been taken over by baboons, and only this road can get in. On either side are two different families of baboons, and the hatred is deep, neither of them will come close to this road"

The next day, the boy followed the six into the Black Forest.

Zhou Peng followed the map and turned left and right in the forest, introducing some common sense here.

In the Black Forest, baboons are powerful creatures that are highly coordinated and physically strong, and an adult baboon can kill an adult with a single fist at close range.

Most importantly, they know how to use weapons, homemade spears, homemade slingshots, these things can hunt enemies from great distances.

The baboon family is very large, to say the least there are more than fifty.

And the families on both sides, each of which has more than two hundred, have a very strong sense of territory.

What happened to the two families Zhou Peng didn't know, the only thing that was certain was that this road was the dividing line between the two families' territories, and the baboons would not approach here without being disturbed.

It is also the only route from the Changfeng Plain to the Black Forest camp.

It is said to be a camp, but it is actually the residence of a group of hunters, under normal circumstances, there will be one or two hundred hunters near the camp, and the target of the hunt is some black cattle, and other creatures are more intelligent and generally will not be disturbed.

Cows, a creature that always have a feeling of insufficient brains, are currently the main source of meat for human beings.

Relatively speaking, pigs are relatively intelligent, very good at running, and are not easy to be targeted by hunters.

Of course, these are beasts that have not yet mutated, and a little intelligence is not enough to resist the fate of being hunted.

After walking for more than three hours, Zhou Peng's six people were fine, but the teenager was tired, and his physical strength was not at the same level at all.

"It's coming soon, do you see those houses in front of you?

The young man fell behind the group, and Su Wen, who was in charge of the broken back, replaced Zhou Peng and introduced the surrounding situation.

Six people, each with a glow stick, the light in the dark forest is too dim, the sun is shining outside, but the woodland is like dusk and night, and it needs a glow stick to illuminate.

As for things like bright light, they don't dare to use them in the woodland, and they are easy to attract other creatures to peep.

The boy was curious about it.

"Wouldn't it be better for you all to use white glowsticks and change them to cyan?"

Su Wen shook his head, looked left and right and pointed into the distance, the young man took advantage of the situation, and there was also a white point of light flickering in the distance.

"It's a monster of the Black Forest, it emits such light, it's used to walk alone, and there are no two of them together except in March every year. If you see a single point of light in the woodland, you must not approach it. As for people, if they walk alone, they should also use two to illuminate, so as not to be regarded as monsters by others."

"So, how can you tell in March?"

Su Wen blinked and smiled lightly: "Hunting is forbidden in March, and from February 20 to April 10 every year, hunters are forbidden to enter the black forest, so you don't need to distinguish them." The camp has arrived."

Rows of wooden houses appeared, and a few large trees should have been cut down in the middle, and the rare sunlight fell on the ground, and I felt a lot easier to breathe.

Just like Su Wen introduced, there are a lot of people in this camp, most of them are in a hurry, and some have just returned with their prey.

These prey were called black bulls by Su Wen, but the boy felt that they should be called buffaloes or cattle, only darker.

"Uncle Chen, we're here"

Zhou Peng looked around the camp when a man about forty years old was seen by him and walked over with six people.

Uncle Chen is the manager of this camp, and his ability is the top among this group of people, so he usually stays in the camp and rarely goes out, at most he helps to decompose the cow carcass.

After returning from hunting, he will give him some money or meat, and if he can't get anything, he will forget it, and he is a very kind person.

"Xiao Zhou, you are here. Here, this is the house you want, two, each room can sleep four people"

"That Uncle Chen, we have one more person here, can we give another room?" Zhou Peng was a little embarrassed.

He was still hunting for a short time, and Uncle Chen often took care of him.

The camp is already very busy, and it is not easy to set aside two rooms, which is actually a bit excessive.

Uncle Chen raised his eyes and took a look, he knew all six faces, only the young man had not seen them.

"Is he?"

"We met him in the Changfeng Plain, and he seemed to have amnesia and couldn't remember anything. We're going back after two days here, and we're going to help him find his family when we get back."

"Oh, so that's the case" Uncle Chen nodded: "But I don't have more rooms here, even the house where I live has friends, you five squeeze it, anyway, it's only two days"

The hunter's hut is not as good as it is, that is, it is just to shelter from the wind and rain, and there is a shelter at night.

There are only four beds and a table in the room, and the lighting is based on oil lamps, and the space in the room is very small.

There are no bedding or anything like that, and hunters have to bring things to sleep with them when they come, most of them will choose sleeping bags, and a few will bring bedding for a longer stay.

Zhou Peng took the key and led the group to the two cabins.

It wasn't the first time for five of them to come, only Mengyun and the boy were very unfamiliar with this place.

The bed in the room was a wooden bunk bed, and the two rows took up almost all the space, and the rest of the room could only be placed on a small table, not even a spare stool, and the table had to be used to sit in the lower bunk.

The bed is also very small, and it is almost impossible to fall off if you lie on it and turn it over, and the top bunk has an iron railing, and the lower bunk is not even protected for the seat of the table.

Su Wen thought for a moment, it was almost impossible for two people to sleep with this kind of bed, and the only way was to let one of them sleep in the same room with the two girls.

Of course, Zhou Peng is the most suitable, but it's a pity that as the team leader, he has a lot of things to discuss with several other people.

The only thing left is this strange boy, although he doesn't know him, but he is very relieved.

The young man didn't have any soul power, and he dared to have any bad intentions, Su Wen could kill him in the first place.

"Zhou Peng, let him sleep in our house, the two of us sleep in the upper bunk, just let him sleep in the lower bunk. Anyway, I use a sleeping bag at night, so let's wait until daytime to change clothes or something. I'll keep the keys."

"Senior Sister Su~"

Mengyun was not very willing, and squirmed and begged the senior sister to change her mind.

"Okay, just let him sleep in your room, and call me as soon as there is something."

Su Wen nodded, and took Mengyun and the boy to the side of the room.

The boy was arranged in Su Wen's lower bunk, and Mengyun had a bed by himself.

Mengyun wanted her senior Zhou Peng to live in, but she didn't like this outsider very much.

There wasn't much luggage, just camping supplies like water bottles and sleeping bags, and it was almost lunch time, and I had to go hunting in the afternoon.
