Volume 1 The Age of Chaos Chapter 3 The White Bear Tribe
As he kept walking, Qi Wanli felt that the blood in his body was gradually activated. In addition, he was bathed in the sun, and his spirit improved a lot, and he gradually walked faster.
It didn't take long for Qi Wanli to come to their camp under the leadership of Tian Yuanxing and the four of them.
It seems that this place is actually a ruin, but it has long been impossible to see the original appearance, only a dozen ruins can be seen, some buildings have half been buried in the ground, and some buildings are directly upside down on the ground. The years of wind and rain have left obvious traces on these buildings, they have not known what they have experienced, all of them have been severely corroded, those exposed steel structures have strange traces of melting, most of them are only roots, and even those walls have obvious burnt and black marks.
In this area, Tian Yuanxing's companions used buildings as shelters and set up tents one after another, where Qi Wanli did not see any future technology, but felt like walking into a relatively backward civilized tribe, the things they used were very ordinary materials, and they didn't even see any electronic products, even the fires used were dry firewood and hay.
The people who come and go in the camp are very similar to Tian Yuanxing, almost everyone is big, dark-skinned, even the shortest woman is more than one meter seven, it is simply a group of little giants, Qi Wanli, who has been working out tasks and exercising for many years, walks among them, like a weak nobleman.
Because of this, when they walked into the camp, everyone looked at Qi Wanli. There were doubts and vigilance in their eyes, but when they saw Tian Yuanxing and a few people, they temporarily let down their vigilance and turned back to their own affairs.
With the instinct of the criminal policeman, Qi Wanli observed a lot of details and deduced some things.
There were not only women but also old people and children in the camp, which shows that the camp was not set up for some temporary task, and it was most likely a migration.
The sun is very poisonous and the sea breeze is very salty, so it is logical that these people are dark-skinned and very rough, so these people should be locals, not from a long journey, and this camp is probably not far from their original settlement.
These people have a natural sense of vigilance, in the cave, Tian Yuanxing is also very cautious before communicating with himself, the people in the camp when they first see their stranger, subconsciously look at themselves sideways, this is a subconscious sense of self-defense, I am afraid that they have encountered danger, or are escaping some kind of danger, or even under some kind of threat for a long time, so they think that any foreign and strange is at risk.
Reasoning at this point, Qi Wanli probably understood something, but limited to the lack of information, there was no need for further inference, not to mention that he believed that he would soon know everything next.
After entering the camp, Tian Yuanxing instructed Da Xiong to find a person named "Teacher Fang", and at the same time said to Qi Wanli: "We are all big bosses, I'm afraid I won't understand it with you." Mr. Fang is our leader, he is the most knowledgeable person in our world, and I think it would be better to let him communicate with you. ”
Qi Wanli nodded, there was no expression on his face, but his heart was full of turmoil, he couldn't wait to know what kind of situation he was in.
Tian Yuanxing took Qi Wanli to a big tent and took him inside. There was no one else here, just a folding bed, a wooden table, and a large pile of groceries.
"This is my residence, you sit down first, Teacher Fang may not be in the camp at this time, and Big Bear will find him. Tian Yuanxing pulled out a dilapidated wooden bench from the pile of debris and gave it to Qi Wanli, and then fetched a cup of hot water from outside the tent and handed it to him.
Qi Wanli pinched the extremely rough pottery water cup in his hand and drank a small sip of hot water.
When the hot water entered his throat, it was as if some kind of function had been activated, and he suddenly felt that he was so thirsty that every cell in his body was eager to absorb more water, so he couldn't help but drink it in one gulp, and then resisted the urge to ask for another glass. Unexpectedly, Tian Yuanxing was thick and fine, and he actually saw it, and after taking the cup in Qi Wanli's hand, he gave him a glass of water.
This small gesture made Qi Wanli's dull mood relax a little, and his favorability towards Tian Yuanxing and his partners in the camp increased a lot.
"You went to that cave to explore the way, right? Do you want to move the camp to the cave?" Qi Wanli asked suddenly.
Tian Yuanxing raised his eyebrows, a little surprised: "How do you know?"
Qi Wanli smiled and said, "Guess." But my job was to deduce the truth of the matter by observing, and the people in your camp were a little wary, because you didn't have a long history here, and you were familiar with the situation in the cave, as if you were moving here to avoid some threat, and you were about to move in when you got acquainted with the cave...... Of course, I guessed all of the above, but it seems that I guessed correctly. ”
Tian Yuanxing nodded, and while removing the tools hanging on his body, he said, "You are very smart, and your observation is also very keen, if you are in our White Bear Tribe, you will be a good hunter." ”
While talking, Tian Yuanxing poured himself a cup of hot water, he walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and took a big sip, his huge body and the appearance of a cow really looked like a bear.
"But your muscles can't. After drinking the water, Tian Yuanxing suddenly popped out such a sentence.
Qi Wanli smiled dumbly, took Tian Yuanxing's words and asked, "I see that all the people in your camp are big guys, is this innate? Or have you been doing high-intensity muscle training since you were a child?"
Speaking of muscle training, Tian Yuanxing suddenly came to his senses, he smiled, took off his leather jacket, and revealed the short sleeves inside, revealing extremely explosive muscles. He patted his rock-like pectoral muscles and said, "Not only our White Bear Tribe, but most of the people in the entire Nanlin Peninsula are natural martial artists, we have been trained according to strict methods since we were young, and our muscles are our most reliable weapons. There are many dangers in this world, and if we don't have the ability to protect ourselves, we can't continue our race. ”
Qi Wanli keenly captured the information in Tian Yuanxing's words, but did not ask a question directly, but said tentatively: "The danger you are talking about is not other humans, right?"
Tian Yuanxing was stunned: "How do you know?"
"If strange humans were a threat, you wouldn't have brought me back so easily. Qi Wanli smiled bitterly: "I know that I myself should look quite suspicious in such a situation. ”
Tian Yuanxing let out a laugh, with an approving look on his face, and gave a thumbs up: "You are really very powerful, your wisdom is not worse than Teacher Fang, you are like him, you can easily see through the truth of the matter and see through people's hearts at a glance." You're right, our enemies are evil monsters, and all humans are our allies. ”
Speaking of this, Tian Yuanxing said in a deep voice: "Of course, not all good people in this world are coming, but now that it is autumn, there will be more and more monsters, for human beings, even if they have their own selfishness and greed, they must be hidden at this time." Unlike the carefree people in the East and West Continents, survival is our first priority. ”
That's a lot of information...... Qi Wanli didn't plan to delve into this issue for the time being, but asked Tian Yuanxing with great interest about how to exercise his muscles.
"Since I was five years old, I did 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and then 10 kilometers of running! The most important thing is to exercise willpower! I wear clothes of the same thickness in winter and summer. At first, I was in pain to death, and I wanted to take a day off at every turn, but eventually I developed strong muscles! No matter how hard it was, no matter how hard it was, I would persist every day! Even if my feet were too heavy to move, I would keep squatting. Strange noises at the wrists, keep pushing too!"
Tian Yuanxing patted his chest proudly, and his beard trembled.
Qi Wanli didn't think deeply about it, and praised: "I experienced such a terrible workout at the age of five, no wonder I can have such powerful muscles." ”
"Your muscles are good, too. Tian Yuanxing smiled and said, "I can see that you have also exercised, but it is still too far away." If you don't have anywhere to go next, I can ask Teacher Fang if I can let you stay with us for the winter, if you run around outside, you will be eaten by monsters. ”
The two communicated for more than half an hour, and Qi Wanli also knew some basic information about this camp.
They are called the White Bear Tribe, a medium-sized tribe on the eastern coast of the Nanlin Peninsula. There is a tribal group in the place where they used to live, living at a friendly distance from the other three medium tribes, and the four tribes would also fight together against the monster invasion every autumn and winter.
But this year is different. The boss of the White Bear Tribe, that is, the "Teacher Fang" in Tian Yuanxing's mouth, seems to have found that the trajectory of the monster's movement is a little abnormal, he suspects that the monsters that wander in the wasteland around the tribe have a leader, and in history, once the monster has a leader, it will often burst out with several times more powerful attack power than before, with four medium tribes, it is difficult to resist.
The White Bear tribe offered their opinion to the other three tribes that they should turn to the more powerful tribes for help, but the leaders of the other tribes refused the White Bear tribe's request and ridiculed the White Bear tribe for being too cowardly, believing that it meant that they needed to pay for supplies and labor in exchange for protection.
Persuasion to no avail, the White Bear tribe had to move on its own, as early as many years ago when Tian Yuanxing hunted found that there was such a hidden cave entrance on the mountainside of the Black Stone Mountains, but after a little exploration, it was found that the cave was extremely deep and forked, so he temporarily gave up going deep. In this migration, Tian Yuanxing proposed that this cave could be used as a stronghold, so the White Bear tribe came to camp nearby, and Tian Yuanxing led the strongest people in the tribe to explore the cave.
After a few days of exploration, they have basically decided that there is no danger in this cave, and the space is large enough, except for some humidity, it is a very good place to avoid disasters and spend the winter, Mo said that the monster is very likely to not find here, even if they do, with the characteristics of the cave, they can also do a good defense.
"We're coming to the end of our exploration in the next two days, and I didn't expect to meet you in the cave. Tian Yuanxing said, "The place where you are staying is the deepest part of the cave, and when we found you, we were really startled, thinking it was a dead body, and we were worried that there was an unknown danger in the cave, but Jingye heard the sound of your breathing." ”
