The south of the wetland park.

The survivors of Bette Street are carrying a wild boar towards the outpost.

It's hard to catch prey in winter, but if you're lucky enough to explore the ruins of high-rise buildings along the Fifth Ring Road, you can still catch one or two game.

Small animals such as squirrels and rabbits are handled by themselves, but big guys like wild boars have to collect 30% of their meat for the butchers in the town!

It's not worth it.

Those blue coats, as long as 20% of the pay, and never vague with them, are worth walking a few kilometers more.

The wild boar was tied to a wooden stick. Yu Hu and Li Niu, each carrying a shoulder, were followed by a little guy with a red face and ears.

In this weather, there are not many different species wandering outside, and the predators rarely leave the stronghold. The little fish clamored to come. Yu Hu couldn't beat his sister, so he took her with him.

Although the weather was very cold, Xiaoyu was very happy when he thought of seeing brother Chu again soon. Unconsciously, he hummed a little tune.

At this time, the footsteps of my second brother and cousin suddenly stopped.

The little fish also stopped and blinked.

"Brother, what's the matter?"

Yu Hu hissed at the fish, then looked at Li Niu and pointed to the front.

"Nomads."

Li Niu also saw the figure in the distance, but he was still not sure.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

Li Niu whispered.

"Why are nomads here?"

Yu Hu thought for a long time, but he didn't understand. He shook his head.

"I don't know. Maybe brother Chu kindly took them in."

Brother Chu is very nice and honest, but he is too kind. Sometimes people can't help worrying whether he will be cheated by others.

To tell the truth, Yu Hu feels guilty every time he exchanges his prey for something.

The salt bought from here is not adulterated at all, and it is much more than old Charlie.

I'm afraid he'll lose money.

The little fish looked up at his second brother and cousin and blinked his big eyes curiously. He didn't understand what they were talking about.

She doesn't know what a nomad is.

I don't think it's strange for them to appear here.

Brother Chu is such a good man. There must be many people who want to be neighbors with him, right?

However, what seemed not strange to her was still strange to Yu Hu and Li Niu.

Whether in lifestyle or cultural customs, these nomads from afar are different from survivors with fixed residence.

Because they have no fixed place to live, they don't care what their neighbors think of themselves, and rarely pay attention to whether their actions will offend others.

Maybe it's prejudice, but they are rich in thieves, swindlers and villains, and sometimes bring terrible plague

Yu Hu took his sister and waited for the man to go away before greeting Li Niu to move on.

The party was careful not to contact the refugees. After showing their passes to the guards, they went straight into the outpost from the south gate.

Different from the last time I came here, the changes here are really a little big.

Yu Hu clearly remembered that the road from the south gate to the warehouse was a muddy road when he came here last time. There was nothing next to it.

Now, not only has the road been pasted with a layer of ash, but also several red brick houses have been built on both sides of the road.

Especially the biggest house, the gate was closed tightly, and a chimney was built with bricks on the top, with black smoke floating.

Yu Hu had never seen such a strange building, nor had his sister and Li Niu. They stared curiously.

"Brother, what's that?"

"It should be a chimney. I remember the mayor's upstairs."

"Chimney? What's that for?"

"Seems to be cooking? I remember discharging the cooking smoke."

"But it's not time for dinner yet."

"I don't know. Maybe... It's a place for many people to cook."

There's nothing so strange on Bette Street anyway.

In sharp contrast to the curious expressions on their faces, the blue coats here are not so curious about them.

In addition to the last batch of Mengxin who just came in, the players here have been familiar with these people for a long time, and those who should be curious have been curious.

I happened to meet Chu Guang wandering in the industrial zone.

Yu Hu's eyes lit up and said hello from a distance.

"Brother Chu."

"Eh, it's been a long time since I saw you. Have you got game again?" Chu Guang smiled as he looked at the wild boar on Yu Hu and Li Niu's shoulders.

not bad

It's a blessing!

The players ate all the wild boar meat last time. This time he has to save some for himself. Don't buy them all.

"Well, what a big head!"

Xiaoyu happily drew a great meaning with her hand. Chu Guang couldn't help smiling on her face.

Glancing at his sister, Yu Hu said in a voice.

"Little fish misses you."

"Well, the little fish misses you!"

"I miss you too," Chu Guang smiled, rubbed the little fish's head, looked at Yu Hu and said, "are you living in that shed now?"

"Well," Yu Hu nodded and said with an embarrassed smile, "I repaired the shed a little. Now it looks much more spacious than before. Thank you."

"Don't thank me. Xiaoyu gave it to you. Just be nice to your sister." Chu Guang continued. "How's it going recently? Are there any predators harassing you?"

"Marauders? We haven't seen those people recently. We're all fine, but you have to be careful," Yu Hu said seriously. "I heard some old people say that there are a group of people living in the North who use blood fingerprints as flags. Several hunters were caught when they went to the North to find deer... They were the ones who hurt my brother and my father last time!"

Blood fingerprints?

Are you talking about the blood hand clan?

However, they probably have no chance to continue to do evil.

Chu Guang smiled faintly and said lightly.

"Don't worry, they won't harass you anymore."

Hearing this sentence, Yu Hu and Li Niu suddenly had a surprised expression on their faces. Only Xiaoyu had a question mark on their face. They didn't understand what adults were saying from beginning to end.

However, speaking of last time, she remembered a little.

"... speaking of it, Xiaoyu saw last time that two fierce men took a beautiful and beautiful sister from Bette street."

Hearing the little fish's interruption, Chu Guang moved in his heart and asked.

"That sister, isn't she very white? It's about... So tall."

Chu Guang gestured, probably near his nose.

The little fish frowned and thought, nodded seriously, opened his eyes and said.

"Uh huh! Brother Chu, have you seen that big sister?"

Don't say yes

The expression is somewhat intriguing.

Chu Guang thought for a moment, and finally used a euphemism to pass the topic that was too heavy for her.

"That sister... Well, I sent her away."

The man was indeed sent by the old mayor.

Then Chu Guang looked at Yu Hu and Li Niu.

"Not to mention that. It's so cold outside. If you can trust it, throw the boar to old Luca and sit in the house with me for a while?"

Yu Hu, Li Niu nodded immediately.

"Yes!"

"OK!"

……

Li Niu is not familiar with Chu Guang, but Yu Hu is very familiar with Chu Guang.

It is even no exaggeration to say that brother Chu is the most trusted outsider besides his close relatives.

Without his help in the crisis, his eldest brother would have died in the hospital bed.

It's a favor to save lives.

Besides, Yu Hu doesn't think that a good man like brother Chu will covet a few pieces of his own meat. If he really wants it, give it to him.

In Yu Hu's opinion, this should be done.

Chu Guang took the three to the main building of the sanatorium. On the first floor, there is a spacious room without air leakage, which has been transformed into a reception room by him.

Here are some simple furniture made by several new life professional players in the carpentry cabin.

Chu Guang lit a charcoal fire. After settling the three, he went back to the shelter and took a bottle of wine and milk from the refrigerator.

The milk was given to the fish.

As for wine, Chu Guang took Yu Hu and sat in front of the brazier. Each of them shared a small cup and poured them a cup respectively.

Not much, about 20ml.

"Try it."

Yu Hu leaned close to the cup and smelled, and his eyes lit up.

"Is this... Wine?!"

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"It's made of croissant potato and made of Polygonum."

Li Niu also said with a look of admiration.

"How fragrant!"

No, it's too extravagant!

In this damn cold winter, there is surplus grain and wine.

Yu Hu and Li Niu are not envious.

In previous years, only in the fat year when life was particularly good, the elders of the family would make a little turbid grain wine from the old grain left over from last year and take it out when they save it for special festivals or happy events.

In particular, green wheat contains acid and can't make wine. If you want to make wine, you must make wine with croissant potato, or a kind of fruit collected in the wild.

But that kind of fruit can only be seen in autumn and summer. Usually, there is no chance at all.

It's very rare to have a warm drink in this weather.

"Hiss, it's so hot!"

Yu Hu is fine. He should drink well. Li Niu looks strong, but his face turns red into a monkey's ass.

Looking at the hot young man with his tongue sticking out, Chu Guang smiled and said.

"The degree is a little high. Drink slowly."

It's distilled wine, after all.

Mutated potato version of vodka, spicy throat is normal.

In fact, Chuguang wine is not for drinking. The reason why the warehouse opens orders in this regard is mainly to store medical alcohol.

It's just that the players are too relieved for him.

Since the death penalty has been reduced several times, seriously injured players consciously come back by themselves, and then find a place where they can make up for themselves.

There's no need for this major alcohol injury. There's no chance to use it for minor injuries. Only some wounds that need to be sutured can have a chance to use it.

With the first experience, the two boys were much more cautious and didn't drink so quickly. After a mouthful of wine, the frozen body warmed up in an instant.

"Your life here is also very good." looking at the rising brazier, Yu Hu said with envy on his face.

"It will be better," Chu Guang said with a smile, "you can come often in the future. We need people here. We can do a lot of things, not just hunting."

Yu Hu patted his chest and said.

"No problem! Brother Chu, if you can use me, just say it!"

Li Niu nodded.

"Me too."

Chu Guang smiled.

"Don't worry, I won't let you help in vain."

At this time, the little fish sitting next to him sipping milk finally finished the milk and licked his lips with a satisfied expression.

Yu Hu looked happy and asked with a smile.

"Is it good?"

"Hmm!" the little fish nodded his head hard, twinkling little stars in his eyes, and gave a positive thumb, "Mom's taste!"

Yu Hu: "

Li Niu: "

Chuguang: "...?"

……

The butcher took the meat quickly. After sitting in the room for a while, Luca knocked on the door and entered the reception room, respectfully reported to Chu Guang.

"Sir, your guest's prey has been handled."

Chu Guang nodded and looked at the slightly drunk two.

"Let's go and get your prey."

The party came to the warehouse.

Luca had packed the meat with plastic bags and handed it to Yu Hu and Li Niu. As for the fur, it was customary to replace it with 300g salt.

As for the shaved viscera and bones, they were all in a plastic bucket. They didn't intend to have them, so they stayed here.

Seeing that the brothers were going to leave, the little fish hesitated.

After thinking for a long time, she gently pulled Yu Hu's sleeve, motioned him to lower his head and come over, and whispered something in his ear.

Yu Hu was stunned when he heard this. He immediately shook his head like a rattle, and said in a urn sound.

"How about that? Our family has caused enough trouble for brother Chu!"

"But..."

"No, but this can't!"

Hearing that the content of their discussion seemed to have something to do with themselves, Chu Guang glanced curiously at his brother and sister.

"What are you talking about?"

Seeing Chu Guang looking at himself, Yu Hu looked a little embarrassed and was wondering how to speak.

However, at this time, the sister standing next to him summoned up her courage and said Nuo Nuo.

"Xiaoyu also wants to help brother Chu like his brother. After all... You don't need Xiaoyu to help look after the house. You invited Xiaoyu to eat so much sugar."

"Sugar?"

Yu Hu was stunned and stared at his sister.

"When did you eat? Didn't dad teach you not to eat what others gave you?"

All he knew was that his sister seemed to have taken some plastic sticks, but he didn't hear it was sugar.

This thing is much more valuable than salt!

Knowing that he was "unjustified", the little fish stared at by his brother had red ears. He didn't know what to say. He simply didn't say it and twisted his neck as if he didn't hear it.

Looking at the brothers and sisters, Chu Guang smiled and said, "your brother can't help me. We should be... Transaction? Or you can understand it as reward."

The little fish raised his head and his eyes glittered.

"Well, will you be paid if Xiaoyu helps?"

"Of course..."

The fish's eyes are brighter.

"Well, can you use sugar as a reward?"

Chu Guang has a lot of lollipops. After all, they are the minimum reward for the primary blind box. You can smoke again even after eating them.

But Chu Guangzhen never thought that this thing would come in handy on such occasions.

"If you want to help me, I happen to have a job for you, and it's a very important job. But... It's so far from your home. It's a long way to walk here. Is it really OK?"

Chu Guang looked at Yu Hu.

I thought he would persuade himself as a brother, but I didn't expect that Yu Hu, who just shook his head like a rattle, defected on the spot.

"No problem, as long as I can help you! Brother Chu, if you don't dislike it, my sister will live with you and save the traffic along the way!"

Chu Guang didn't react yet. Xiaoyu nodded excitedly and raised his small arm.

"Oh! Xiaoyu is already an adult. You can take good care of yourself!"

Li Niu didn't know what to say, but he thought he should help, so he thought for a long time and held out a word.

"I can help build a shed... I'll pick up some things."

Chu Guang coughed and stopped the guy's mindless behavior.

"... that's not necessary."
