Chapter 33 Other camps
Ye asked Qin Ke to push the wooden cart.
He walked in the mountains for five whole days. Even though he had various miraculous items given to him by the temple, which made it much easier for him to walk, he was now a little overwhelmed.
Moreover, when I was pushing the wooden cart downhill, the car body vibrated, and there seemed to be something wrong.
"Let me see……"
Ye asked Qin Ke to push the cart to the flat ground and bent down to check the wooden cart.
"Oh, the wheel was cracked by the stone just now... But looking at the map, we should be there soon. Just hold on and change the wheel when we get to the front..."
Ye asked Qin Ke to pat the car body, push it and continue on the road.
Keep walking forward and you will reach the place marked on the map.
It looks very deserted here.
Looking from a distance, in an open space, there are only a bunch of campfires that have been extinguished, leaving only ashes, and a dilapidated thatched hut with signs of repairs many times.
This is of course normal - in fact, this is a common sight Ye Rang Qinke has seen along the way.
"Hello, I am a traveling merchant from the Fengsong tribe..."
Ye let Qin Ke try to call inside.
If there is someone inside, he will definitely appear excitedly and respond to him when he hears the sound.
If no one responds... then most of the camp owners are already dead.
As for why you don't just go in and take a look...it's just a matter of caution.
The survivors who are on the verge of collapse will not be surprised no matter what they do.
Ye Rang Qin Ke had some self-defense equipment issued to him by the priests in the temple... although he had not had time to use it when he was attacked by monsters in the wild.
But in an open place, it is no problem to use it to deal with an ordinary person who may not have eaten for several days.
Ye asked Qin to stand here and wait for a while, but no one came out.
It seems to be a deserted land...
Ye Rang Qin Ke sighed and pushed the car in, intending to take a rest here and change the wheels.
A car is a very precious thing.
It’s not just the miracle of “carrying hand”.
A "car" itself can be regarded as wealth and life for them.
Because it is difficult for them to build a car by themselves. The various parts of the car are already inaccessible processes to them.
Such as wheels.
For example, the copper bars on the car.
If you want to process high-precision wood products, metal tools are almost necessary.
But the method of making metal utensils... was only in the hands of temple priests and tribal leaders.
It is impossible for ordinary people like them to make it themselves.
Therefore, although the wooden carts issued to them by the temple have replacement parts, they must be used with care.
If it was all worn out on the road, he wouldn't be able to fix it.
Ye asked Qin Ke to remove the wheel, take out the new wheel from the car and install it. He knocked it with a stone and finally replaced the wheel.
Ye asked Qin Ke to straighten up and wipe his sweat with his sleeve.
"Let's spend the night here tonight, and then come back during the day tomorrow..."
When Ye Rang Qin Ke was about to move the tent off the car, he suddenly heard a voice coming from the thatched house.
"Is there anyone?"
Ye Rang Qin Ke was stunned.
He pulled out the dagger from the car and hid it behind his back, and walked carefully towards the thatched house.
"Is anyone there? I am a traveling businessman. I was sent by the gods to do business with you. I have no ill intentions!
"I have food, seeds, animal skins, clothing, and various tools... and very useful medicines here. If you want to exchange some resources, you can come out and have a chat!"
Ye Rang Qin Ke stood far outside the door and shouted loudly into the house.
However, no one came out, but there was a loud "bang" in the house.
Ye asked Qin Ke to come up and look inside through the gap in the wall.
Inside the house, a haggard, almost disfigured young man was lying on the ground, extending his hand toward the door, and there seemed to be a few straw-like things left in the corners of his mouth.
…
Facts have proved that although I don’t know whether medicated bathing was useful in the previous medical system, in Lu Ning’s case, the effect of medicated bathing is unexpectedly useful.
After three days of internal and external use and medicinal bath, Lu Ning now looks very good.
My body is no longer weak, my stomach aches are gone, my limbs are stronger, and my appetite has improved.
Not only have all the previous illnesses recovered, but his physical fitness is now even better than before.
It was as if he had opened up the two channels of Ren and Du. He now went up and down the mountain to fetch two large pots of water, and ran more than a dozen times with two kettles filled with 40 kilograms of water, just like playing.
Lu Ning estimated that these potions of his had a somewhat stimulating effect on his physical fitness. This time, he took advantage of the trend of medical treatment, so there was some obvious improvement.
But after that, the effect is not that obvious. You have to keep exercising every day and taking medicinal baths to maintain the slow growth effect.
But this was already very satisfying to Lu Ning.
He is not a martial arts practitioner. He needs to practice to be able to split a large stone slab with one palm.
His physical fitness and strength will become stronger, which will make him healthier, mentally better, and more efficient at work.
This is the point.
His interest in personal martial arts was obviously not worth mentioning before farming and alchemy.
Thinking of farming, Lu Ning thought of the piece of land he was optimistic about.
Now that the body has recovered and a lot of seeds have been obtained from Ye Rang Qinke, it is time to open up the land.
As soon as Lu Ning thought about this, he took a shovel and a hoe, hung the animal skin bag filled with seeds on his body, and walked down the mountain.
…
Ye asked Qin Ke to get some water and food for the young man, and watched the young man wolf down the food.
"This is a gift for you, but if you want it again, you will have to exchange resources for it."
Ye Rang Qin Ke said.
The young man could not speak clearly because his mouth was filled too slowly, so he could only nod his head fiercely.
"Looking at your state, I'm afraid you've been hungry for a long time, right?"
Ye Rang Qin Ke asked as he had nothing to say.
"Hmm..." The young man swallowed the berries in his mouth and opened his mouth to speak, but for a moment he was a little incoherent: "It's me... ahem, I'm hungry, uh... it's been five or six days..."
"No wonder." Ye Rang Qin Ke has seen a lot, "You group of survivors, whether it is bad luck or a test from the gods, you encountered a snowstorm that is rare in a century."
"God?" The young man was stunned.
"Yes." Ye asked Qin Ke to simply repeat to the young man what he had said to Lu Ning.
"There are indeed gods and extraordinary abilities in this world... Is that 'Warden' some kind of god?"
Young people feel that their worldview is somewhat subverted.
"Okay, you've eaten. Do you want to take a look at my products?"
Ye asked Qin Ke to ask.
But he didn't have high hopes.
The situation of the young man in front of me was very different from that of my benefactor. It was obvious that he had no resources, and it was probably impossible to come up with anything to do business with him.
"I...I want food...and some medicine."
The young man hesitated and said.
"Okay, what do you plan to exchange for? I've told you in advance that these things are not free."
