(Today's second update arrives, make up for last night's 2460 votes, if today's votes reach 2800 votes, there will be another chapter in the evening~)
Xia Zeyuan looked at Lin Xiao's back, sniffed, and was a little envious.
After going through so many things, although it has only been a day, among the hundreds of people, a major group of leaders has slowly formed, and among the people, they have a considerable right to speak, including Zhao Tianyang, a middle-aged man who looks vicious, but is very decisive, and Jiang Fang, who is a tall and thin young man with a figure of one meter nine.
At that time, Zhao Tianyang led a team of more than 40 people to the east, and it was their team that discovered the water source here, and in the process, Zhao Tianyang's performance had made his team happy and surrendered, and they were unconsciously willing to obey his orders and commands.
And Jiang Fang also led a team and became the leader of that team, but his team was the most miserable, and only five people came back after the worst.
Sun Yaojie, Lin Xiao, Fang Xinyi and others are the third team, and in the end, eleven people rushed back, but Zhao Zhong and Wang Futai also died, and the people who are still alive are only Sun Yaojie, Lin Xiao, Fang Xinyi, Fang Zhirong, Wu Wenxu, Pan Sixi, Graphite, Sun Tianen, Zhang You, and Sun Yaojie is regarded by others as the leader of this team.
Now because of Lin Xiao's amazing performance last night, he has also been recognized by Zhao Tianyang and others, so now when everyone gathers to discuss things, they also call him over.
In addition to these three teams, several other teams, in the course of yesterday's exploration, also appeared similar to the leader and the leader of the team, and they were also called at this moment.
These people are Du Ruowu, Zhong Ding, Miao Fu and Qian Jinfa.
Du Ruowu is one meter eight tall, although he is not as tall as Jiang Fang, but he is very burly, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he has practiced sanda for several years, and he opened a small sanda gym in Jibei City, although he is not a professional sanda player, but he is indeed a lot more powerful than ordinary people.
With his skills, in the process of exploring the way, he immediately showed his advantage, and gradually, he became the leader of the team that explored the way to the southeast, and everyone was more convinced of him.
And Zhong Ding is the leader of the team that explores to the southwest, these so-called team leaders are not selected by everyone, most of them are in the process of exploration, outstanding performance and slowly recognized by everyone, either like Sun Yaojie, with a flexible mind, or like Du Ruowu, with excellent skills, he will naturally be convinced by everyone.
Compared with several other people, Zhong Ding is very young, and now he is still a sophomore, he is a little similar to Sun Yaojie, becoming the leader of the southwest exploration team, not that he is better than ordinary people, but he likes to talk in the limelight, likes to use his brains and command, and slowly made him, although everyone may not obey him, but they still believe in him.
And Miao Fu is the leader of the team to explore the northwest, he is a conductor on the S601 train that had an accident, and there are several other conductors like him, who were all assigned to the northwest team at that time, and among some people, he is the best, so he naturally became the leader of this team.
As for Qian Jinfa, he is the leader of the pathfinder team in the northeast, he is bald, with a shiny face, he is a chef by profession, maybe he has played too much with kitchen knives, this Damascus knife in his hand, showing considerable power, with this ability, he has become the main person of this team, and now he has also been summoned to the meeting to discuss the next thing.
The leaders of the seven teams, as well as a number of others who had behaved quite well, were all summoned, and as for the group that had gone north, they had not returned, and the forty-odd people, as if they had disappeared, had not heard the slightest.
The sky has already brightened, and it is now the second day that everyone has arrived in this "poisonous fog swamp", although there are heavy casualties, many people's relatives and lovers have died, and there are gloomy clouds everywhere, but the living people still need to work hard and desperately, many corpses have been carried together, and then the fire is raised, and the men and women who can still move have begun to roast meat and make food again.
Since he is alive, he cannot refrain from eating.
And Zhao Tianyang, Jiang Fang, Sun Yaojie, Lin Xiao, Du Ruowu, Qian Jinfa and others took this opportunity to gather together and discuss. ,
Originally, I wanted to stay by this stream, relying on the corpses of these stone-clawed beasts, and it would not be difficult to survive for seven days, but now it seems that this stream is not safe. Zhao Tianyang was the first to speak.
Now he has quite a lot of prestige among the people.
He is vicious, and he is born with a murderous aura, and in such an extraordinary period, a person like him who is feared has won the trust of everyone.
Zhao Tianyang was also injured in the shoulder, and at the moment he was just bandaged it simply, and when he spoke, he seemed to pull the wound, and he frowned slightly.
Sun Yaojie groaned: "So many corpses are also a problem, but fortunately, the temperature here is relatively low, and there will be no problems for the time being, otherwise it will be even more unimaginable." ”
Zhong Ding spoke quickly, and immediately continued: "My idea is very simple, since this stream is not safe, we will retreat to the station, at least these old and weak women and children will be lined up there, what do you think?"
"Hmm. Du Ruowu nodded slightly, this burly man, who has practiced sanda for several years, although his skills are not weak, but he belongs to a relatively honest type of person, and he doesn't talk much.
Zhao Tianyang looked at Lin Xiao and said, "Lin Xiao, what do you think?"
Lin Xiao's performance last night was a blockbuster, and the strange phenomenon that happened to him made everyone have to pay attention to him.
Lin Xiao saw Zhao Tianyang asking, so he had to say: "With so many stone claw beast corpses, we don't need to worry about the food in the past few days, plus there is also a water source, if the station is safe, it is a good way for us to return to the station, of course, the premise is that the station city is safe." ”
Zhao Tianyang shook his head and said: "No one can be sure of this incident, we can only use the elimination method, at least it is not safe here, so how about we go back to the station first?" But the corpses of these stone-clawed beasts should also be dragged there for storage, for safety, and when we need to eat and drink, we will return to the stream, how about it?"
"That's the only way to do it now, otherwise it's going to be a problem if you stay here, and if you run into a horde of stoneclawed beasts again. Miao Fu nodded and agreed.
"Well, we'll move back to the station as soon as we've eaten. After Zhao Tianyang finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.
Pieces of meat were roasted, bursts of fragrance wafted, Fang Xinyi smiled and handed Lin Xiao a leg of flesh and bones, and said, "Lin Xiao, eat more, so as to feed the baby in your body." ”
Lin Xiao glanced at her, shook his head and smiled bitterly, but it was strange to say that this time, his appetite had become normal again, and he didn't look like he couldn't eat enough like last night.
"Huh, you're full?" Fang Zhirong also said strangely.
Lin Xiao smiled, groaned slightly, and slowly understood, the little stone-clawed beast was parasitic in his body, and at first it relied on the nutrients in his body to survive, but as he killed a large number of stone-clawed beasts, this stone-clawed beast parasitic in his body could survive by devouring the soul energy of many other stone-clawed beasts, so he didn't need his body much to provide nutrition, so his food consumption became normal again.
"So it seems that as long as I keep killing other stoneclaws, I can get the nutrients it needs, and it doesn't need to take nutrients from my body, otherwise, if it doesn't...... I'm afraid it's going to take the nutrients from my body......"
Last night, it was too dark, so he couldn't see clearly, now that the sky was gradually brightening, Lin Xiao stretched out his hands and secretly used the power of the parasitic stone-clawed beast in his body, and slowly, a stream of force was released from his body, and then, he noticed that on his right wrist, a phantom appeared as if it were nothing.
This phantus resembles a miniature version of a stoneclaw, but if it is absent, it is difficult to spot if you don't look closely.
Fang Xinyi, Fang Zhirong, Sun Yaojie, and even Wen Ningxuan were all attracted over.
"It's amazing...... You see, it's almost hard to see, but there really is. Fang Xinyi screamed, then reached out to touch it, and her fingers immediately pierced it, it seemed to be just an illusion, but she clearly felt that there was a faint cool feeling on her fingers.
"Like...... It seems that there is, and there doesn't seem to be a ......" Wu Wenxu on the side also stretched out his head, and after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't be sure whether it was true or false, just because this small phantom was too faint.
But Lin Xiao knew that this was not an illusion, but that there was really a small phantom of the stone-clawed beast hovering on his wrist, and it would also rotate and crawl on his arm with his will and thoughts.
His body shook slightly, and soon, the vague shadow fluttered behind him, and then to his left wrist.
This feeling is like a miniature version of a stoneclaw beast that is not much bigger than an adult's palm, but it is in a phantasmatic state, crawling and fluttering on the surface of his body, and this phantom-like little stoneclaw, which can also overlap with his body, and finally merge into his body and disappear.
