Chapter 13 Days of Escape
The snow in the cold morning slowly melts with the arrival of spring. A stream formed by snow is slowly flowing in the cold. In this new primitive jungle, most of the wild beasts are still sleeping because the cold breath makes them have to shrink into the cave.
But today something cruel is happening, a group of people walking on both feet are cruelly dragging a hibernating bear out of the hole and stabbing and bleeding.
This was the third day after Chen Nuo and his friends left Lin'an Mansion. The snow began to melt in large quantities due to the arrival of spring, and the sled that could have been easily dragged began to become less easy to drag. So in the end, Chen Nuo and his friends dismantled the sled and turned into firewood, on the one hand to reduce the things they carried, and on the other hand to destroy the corpse.
Although they have been migrating these days, in fact, everyone knows that they are actually running away. So during this period, they have almost never stopped their pace. Normally, at their movement speed, they have basically left the outer boundary of Lin'an Prefecture.
Of course, if it was in the civilized world in the past, it would probably be useless to run away, and it is even likely that the large army would be surrounded by a large army just after escaping. But to be honest, even Daxia cannot maintain its rule outside the city.
A place more than ten kilometers away from the city is a terrifying forest. And as the world gradually changes, large-scale vegetation continues to grow rapidly. Even in the cold winter, the trees in the forest are constantly growing. In addition to not growing tender branches, the main poles of various trees become thicker, bigger and taller at extremely high speeds.
When spring gradually returns, the branches on these trees sprout rapidly and then grow at a more terrifying speed. Even if large mushrooms are placed in a forest, you may find that the glass wasteland turned into by the mushrooms will disappear the next year, and the lush and weird forest will cover the place again.
Chen Nuo and his friends' actions into the forest were actually very dangerous, but they had no other choice in order not to be caught. Because of treating the injured orphans, Chen Nuo and his friends consumed most of the accumulated divine gold, and the remaining divine gold in their hands did not add up to 1 unit.
These divine golds are naturally impossible to exchange for food, after all, this is something to save lives. When the food is not very sufficient, Chen Nuo and the others have to start hunting.
This hibernating bear, who was about to climb out of the cave, was their prey, but after a winter, the big bear had no fat storage. But Chen Nuo and the others still slaughtered the big bear, even if it was skinny and bone-skinned, it was still flesh!
After more than 100 orphans were separated, even if the bear was bigger, everyone would only have a little bit in the end. This made Chen Nuo and the others missed the time when they fought monsters in Elta. Although it was very dangerous and tiring at that time, they could quickly collect divine gold and then exchange it for very sufficient food from the fair scale.
"Where should we go now?" He filled his hungry stomach slightly. Chen Nuo and his friends began to think about their future after three days of escape.
"We can't go back to Lin'an Mansion! We'll probably be arrested when we go back! If we don't go to Nandu and Demon Mansion, we can't go to Nandu and Demon Mansion. If we go, we will die. It's too dangerous. We have been going west before, maybe we can go to Xuanfu?" Shen Rong said slowly with a frown.
"Xuanfu? It's too far! It's probably several months gone by!" Chen Nuo looked at the map in his hand. This map was an ancient Daxia map. The distance between Xuanfu and Lin'anfu was not far away on the map. It was only a thumb distance, but in fact the distance was several hundred kilometers. As for now, it was even more like a mountain and a sea, so far enough to make people who go out now despair.
"And this map is too old, and we don't know if it is still there in Xuanfu! We may be able to walk along the railway tracks!" Chen Nuo slowly put away the map. In fact, he wanted to throw the map into the fire, because as he said, the map was too old.
"Along the railway tracks?" Chen Nuo's words made everyone come to their senses, because they all knew that the railway in Daxia was still open, and it was a lifeline that was saved and built at a huge cost.
When Chen Nuo and the others escaped from Nandu, there was actually a section of the road that was followed by the railway tracks, otherwise they would not be able to reach Lin'an Mansion alive.
"But will we be caught walking along the railway tracks now?" Fatty Li said in a low voice.
"Stupid! We can walk in the forest beside the railway tracks! Besides, we just need not meet the train!" Luo Chong said loudly, supporting him along the railway tracks.
"But it's still a bit risky." Shen Rong looked at the bonfire in front of him. The damp firewood emitted choking smoke, but this was already the driest firewood they could find, and it was fished out from the bear's nest.
"No matter how high the risk is, it is better than getting lost! Just follow the railway tracks!" Chen Nuo broke a branch and threw it into the fire, and then decided on the road behind them. However, they still did not decide where to go, so they could only say they were walking along the railway.
Although they experienced sadness and pain, the orphans were still very quick to move. After determining the direction, they quickly headed towards the location of the railway. After all, in order to make a living, the orphans worked odd jobs on the railway construction site for a very long time.
In fact, not only Chen Nuo and others, but most of the residents of Lin'an Prefecture worked on the railway to make money. In order to open the railway in a short time, there were quite a lot of people mobilized, and only when there were too many people, some monsters did not dare to approach the railway construction site.
Of course, at this time, the railway line is closed, and circles of barbed wire protect the fragile transportation line of Daxia. However, although this transportation line is fragile, it is an important passage for the entire Daxia to maintain complete operation. It is equipped with several large-caliber artillery guns, and even special rail repair carriages. The huge steel dragon is the only thing driving on this transportation line.
However, for Chen Nuo and others, there is another problem around the railway, that is, it is difficult to find food. After all, when a long steel dragon passes by, it will scare away all the nearby beasts, rather than the beasts, which will turn into corpses under the crater.
After a marching, they ran to the woodland beside the rails before nightfall, and beside the place where they are lying now there is a large crater.
There was some snow left in the middle of the crater, and of course there was a bone with only white bones left after being gnawed. The pale skull was broken, and a trace of scattered fur, snow and water mixed in the crater.
Chen Nuo, the beast that was burned on the fire at this moment, didn't know if it was the one that chewed the corpse in the crater, but as long as it could eat it, it made the stomach a little oily and watery, who cares what it was eating.
For extremely hungry people, even if the beast they caught had eaten humans, they would probably throw it into the fire without hesitation and cook it and eat it.
Chen Nuo once heard that when someone in Sichuan and Sichuan was so hungry that he couldn't stand it, he even slaughtered and ate it. But at that time no one would care about protecting animals, after all, people were starving to death and still protected a ball.
"This thing is too thin! It has no meat!" Luo Chong sighed as he looked at the food being put on the bonfire.
"After all, spring has just arrived, and it probably wanted to find a rabbit to eat, but unfortunately we have caught it now and prepared to eat it." Chen Nuo kept cutting the beast's body with a knife, and the tongue of flame licked the raw meat under it to roast it bit by bit.
"There are fewer prey on the side of the track!" Chen Rong sighed as he looked at the prey roasted on the bonfire.
"Not only have few prey on the side of the track, but there are actually not many prey around! Perhaps the train will hunt some wild animals every time they pass by, so that the beasts already understand that this is a very dangerous place." Chen Nuo sighed, "But this is also a good thing! At least we don't need to be too careful about the attacks of wild animals."
"That's right!" Chen Rong looked at Tang Sen and others with a tired face. After all, it was not just more than 30 people from Chen Rong and the others, but also Tang Sen and his younger brothers and sisters who didn't have much combat power.
