Chapter 27
Time flows like a river beside it, without a stop. In a blink of an eye, a few months passed. The surrounding environment has also entered the summer from the cold early spring, or the somewhat annoying summer.
Mosquitoes are always well-deserved overlords in summer, and even the mutated environment has not allowed them to disappear. This kind of hateful little vampires basically appear in groups, and when they appear, they are in a vast area.
Even though Chen Nuo and the others kept using mugwort to smoke, most people were covered in bags when they woke up every day, and the itch caused by the mutated mosquitoes after they were tart with people was very uncomfortable.
These mosquitoes are not the same, no matter if you are external or something, you can check them in and bite them. This is definitely not a good thing for Chen Nuo and the others. After all, mosquitoes can spread diseases. If you accidentally replace them with malaria, you don’t even have medicine.
Of course, the most important reason for forcing Chen Nuo and the others to give up the safe house built in a few months is that there are no prey around, and the appetite of more than one hundred people is very big. If these more than one hundred people are just ordinary people, about three taels of food a day is almost the same, but the problem is that for Chen Nuo and the others, three taels of food is not hungry at all. No matter how much Chen Nuo saves, one fish that is more than two or three kilograms a day can definitely be eaten easily.
In a few months, Chen Nuo and his friends basically caught all the wild vegetables around the village and even the fish and shrimps that could be caught in the river. No! It cannot be said that they were all fishing out. At least they did not go downstream, and at the same time they did not go to the upstream that was too far from the village.
So although there are upstream and downstream fish swimming over, there are fewer and fewer. In this case, they will either starve to death or...well, there will be no other ending.
"Carry it out! You have to leave here!" Leaving from a relatively safe place was actually a helpless decision. Chen Nuo and the others had thought of opening up a field for farming. However, they could not find any seeds, so they could not farm to harvest.
"The quality of the cart is OK! The wood has been baked for many days! But if it weren't for those few days, it might have been drier!" Compared to the empty hands when he first escaped from school, Chen Nuo and the others already owned many carts. They contained the things they collected during this period. Although they may not be able to travel with each other in some places, and they also require human traction, they are better than carrying two legs.
"If you walk from here to the northwest direction, you will see the railway in about three days!" Chen Nuo finally determined the direction before departure.
"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be true!" The map in Shen Rong's hand has been messed up by writing and painting, and many places have been marked.
"Our goal is the southern Anhui or northern Jiangxi area next door! We still need to hunt on the road, so the cart is loaded with some firewood! After all, I don't know if I can collect dry firewood behind it! Of course, the most deadly thing is that we lack rain gear. Once we encounter thunderstorms, we can only pray that we are lucky enough to build a camp before the rain falls." Chen Nuo looked at the sun that had just risen in the distance. The red sunlight instantly cleared the coolness on the ground, and the summer heat soon fell.
"I hope the high temperature will keep the wild beasts hiding in a cool place! Have you prepared all the herbs for relieving the heat? Add some salt to the water in the kettle!" Chen Nuo looked at the sun in the sky, and the scorching sunlight told him that today would be a sunny day, and sunny summer meant high temperatures.
Although there will be a hint of shade in the vegetation area, the stuffiness will make people feel even more uncomfortable. However, they feel uncomfortable, and those wild animals will not be very comfortable. This is why Chen Nuo chose to set off for half a day instead of at night.
"Let's go!" Chen Rong looked at the sky and shouted. Everyone put on their luggage and left the place where they had lived for several months.
The team of more than 100 people is now larger than before, because many carts were pulled on. These carts were equipped with cooking utensils, food and salt, etc., as well as nails and hammers needed to build camps.
Chen Nuo and his team relied on simple skills to melt the steel they found into what they needed. When they were creating these things, they thought of the dwarves in Elta. Originally, they thought that they could do their best to return to Blue Star, even if they were not doing well, when the dwarves arrived, they could do their best to do the landlords, but now they think it is unlikely.
Of course, Chen Nuo and the others did not know that the dwarves had arrived at Blue Star, but they did not go to where Chen Nuo and the others were, but chose to let the Fair Scale choose a dwarves gathering place. After all, Blue Star does not mean that there are no dwarves. On the contrary, except for Daxia, there are even cities where dwarves gathered to build them in many places outside Daxia.
Therefore, it is very likely that Chen Nuo will see those dwarves again. Of course, he doesn't want to see the other person again because he is doing so miserably now.
The orphans who were moving slowly had simple woven straw hats on their heads, and their ears were the buzzing noises made by mosquitoes that even ignored the hot weather. From time to time, they needed to slap the mosquitoes that were still staring at people without hesitation with their hands. In such an environment, they were not moving fast.
The wooden wheels were roasted with fire, and pressed on the soil quickly made a clear rut. This is probably the only trace of human activity that has appeared again in this area over the years. In the past, cars would pass through the road at this time, and those idle old men might walk on the street with fans.
But now all this is gone. Not to mention the running cars, even the roads that were very clear in the past have long been submerged in weeds or have disappeared under the soil.
It was very difficult for Chen Nuo and the others to move forward in such a situation where there was almost no road, but in the past few months, the group has basically mastered the closer places. The slightly larger beasts around, no! Basically, as long as they can eat, they have been killed and eaten by these orphans.
So in a short period of time, this area is almost extinct. If there is one, it is highly likely that Chen Nuo and the others can have a tooth sacrifice to the night. Unfortunately, those beasts are all smart, so there is not even a rabbit on the roadside.
Before the evening, the group finally arrived at the first temporary camp that Chen Nuo and the others had chosen in fatigue. Before leaving, Chen Nuo and the others had prepared for this migration. A few days ago, he took more than a dozen people to leave the village first and then opened the camp.
But he simply cut down the tree and piled it aside. Although he had no progress in re-mastering the power of the swordsman in the realm of mourning during this period, he still made a little progress with Qi Slash. He could basically cut many trees with one sword sweep. Basically, the piles of wood were done by Chen Nuo alone, and the others were the axe and trimmed the branches.
