  Chapter 2 A passing Laura

"Do you know English?"

   "It seems that it will happen suddenly..." David was also wondering, he tried to think for a while, and found that he could use English knowledge easily, similar to when he thought in his native language.

   This is definitely not my previous English level, but more like a sudden acquisition of English knowledge.

   It seems unbelievable, but David, who is a time traveler, doesn't find it strange. He has experienced various brain bombings in his previous life, and he immediately understood what was going on: the golden finger has arrived!

  Looking at Laura who suddenly appeared in front of him, he already had some guesses about what happened to his golden finger.

  Although Goldfinger came a bit late and made him wait for so many years, it was better than nothing!

   But, why did it appear at this time? Have you made any major changes recently?

   Could it be that he waited until he was eighteen years old to open it? David joined the pioneering team at the age of sixteen and stayed in this remote place for two years. He is just eighteen years old this year.

  Besides this, the biggest change is the identity - from an ordinary person to a village chief.

  Related to the sudden appearance of Laura and the 'British English' ability that should be obtained from Laura, he is inclined to the latter possibility.

   Time travel! Although someone else came across to find him, it was not unusual.

  In his previous life, he did not miss the idea of ​​opening shops, hotels, and clinics to attract all kinds of traversers. Then he became the village head, and it is not uncommon for traversers to appear in the territory.

   It is not difficult to judge whether your guess is correct, just to see if there will be "familiar people" suddenly appearing.

   "In this case, I, the village chief, have to keep working!"

  David, who was thinking like this in his heart, looked at Laura again, and the other side's face was full of doubts.

   This is normal. Anyone who hears the other party say "it will happen suddenly" will not immediately believe it. Besides, Laura has just experienced a shipwreck and was knocked out, kidnapped and hung in a cave. She will definitely be wary of strangers.

   "Although it sounds unbelievable, what I said is true." David could only use a serious expression to emphasize that he was not lying.

Laura looked at David seriously, and was finally overwhelmed by David's sense of justice, and decided to believe his nonsense: "Okay... so, can you tell me where this is? Who are you? ?”

  After treating the wound, Laura felt much more comfortable. Although she was still a little weak, she was no longer as uncomfortable as before.

  Until this time, she didn't have the mind to pay attention to other questions: Where is this place? How did you get here? How do I go to meet up with my partners?

  When she was talking to David just now, she carefully looked at the surrounding environment.

   No matter how you look at it, this place is a plain. How did she get here from the mountain in the blink of an eye? There are also huge changes in the climate, which makes her very puzzled.

   "This is the pioneer camp located in the northwest of the Northern Plain in the Iron Tree Forest. I am the village chief David here."

"Hello, David, I'm Laura Crawford, an archaeologist. I came here by accident because I was separated from my partner in a shipwreck." Laura thinks this is a very common place name. As for the northern plains, it's more Common: "Where is the Iron Tree Forest?"

   "Iron Tree Forest is located in the northwest of Iron Tree Fort, which is the most important town in the north of Tilan Kingdom."

   "Iron Tree Fort? Kingdom of Tilan? Where is the Kingdom of Tilan?"

  David looked at Laura who was full of doubts, and continued to tell the other party what he knew: The Kingdom of Tilan is a human kingdom located in the north of the mainland.

The place they are in at this time is the plain area north of Iron Tree Fort, an important town in the north of the Kingdom of Tilan. It was not possible to occupy this vast plain area until the pioneering team formed two years ago came here.

  David is here as one of the three pioneer camps that were newly established and wanted to reclaim this land. If it goes well, it should develop into a new village and incorporate this land into the territory of the Kingdom of Tilan.

   "???"

As David narrated, the question marks on Laura's head continued to increase, almost as if they were going to overwhelm her completely, but she still managed not to interrupt David's narration until David finished the general situation. He added: "You were actually telling a story just now, right?"

   "No." David spread his hands and put on a serious face, indicating that what he said was the truth.

"How can this be?"

If David's description is true, it means that Laura came to another world in a daze. Although David's description is very rough, from David's words, the distance traveled by the Blazers team after leaving Iron Tree Fort can be obtained. You know, this is definitely not a small island.

   "..." Opened her mouth, Laura, who didn't know how to describe the current situation, was silent for a long while, until the hunger in her stomach brought her back to her senses: "This is really...unbelievable."

She asked some more about the customs and customs, learned some of the cultural customs of this world, and learned that there are mysterious powers and races in this world that are like those in fantasy stories, and she accepted for a while that she really came to another world fact.

   At this point, Laura suddenly thought of another question: "Don't these questions I ask make you wonder?"

   "No." After so long, it was enough for David to think of a suitable statement: "The way you appeared made me realize that your origin will be very special."

   Described the strange state of Laura when she appeared, and now Laura understood why David was so calm, because the other party didn't regard her as an "ordinary person" from the beginning.

   "So it is."

  After unraveling all kinds of doubts, Laura felt her head ache slightly: Can she go back? Although the world is magical, it fills her with a sense of adventure.

   But right now is not a good time for taking risks. She is very worried about her partner. They just encountered a shipwreck, and she doesn't know what is going on with everyone at the moment? Can you escape the catastrophe safely?

   Laura, who was full of worries, didn't notice that David cooked broth for Laura's dinner during her silent time, and didn't recover until the steaming broth was handed to her.

   "Thank you!" Looking at the bowl of fragrant broth in her hand, Laura sincerely thanked David: "Thanks for meeting you."

"You are welcome."

  David returned Laura with a bright smile. He is in a good mood now. After all, the appearance of Laura means that he has a golden finger and the motivation to continue working hard in this place.

   What's more, Laura herself is still a beautiful woman with online appearance and figure—how can normal people not want to look at beautiful women?

  Laura, who quickly finished a bowl of broth, noticed that David next to him was just standing aside and looking at her, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "Aren't you going to eat?"

  After asking the exit, she remembered the situation of the camp that David had introduced earlier: David was alone, and the supplies were scarce: "Is there not enough food?"

   "No, I just finished eating before you came." David explained: "I was lucky, and I hunted a deer during the day."

   "That's good." After making sure that she didn't eat up the other party's little food, Laura's worries were relieved a little, and then she asked about the environment around the village.

  She wanted to confirm if there was anything special near this village, otherwise why would she come here suddenly? Maybe if he finds the source of that mysterious power, he will be able to go back.

David guessed what Laura was thinking, but he didn't tell the other party that the so-called mysterious power was probably himself. Instead, he introduced the surrounding environment bluntly: to the west of the village is an extremely vast river, and its source should be able to The mountain peak in the north can be seen vaguely.

  The river flows from north to south, and then turns west on the west side of their village. At the same time, another river flows from south to north and is much narrower.

  The reason why I chose this place as the camp was because it is the turn and confluence of the big river. There is enough fresh water here, and there are a lot of fish, shrimp and other aquatic products in the river.

  The forest in the north is another reason, which can provide a large amount of high-quality wood. In addition, the terrain is flat, and the east and south directions are basically plains, which are very suitable for reclaiming farmland.

  No matter how you look at it, this is a good choice. Unexpectedly, the follow-up progress is far from the expectation.

  Listening to David's description, Laura couldn't hear anything magical or peculiar: "Have you encountered anything special in the past two years?"

   "The most special thing is your presence."

  Laura felt very helpless after hearing David's answer. It seemed that she had to think in a different direction.

   "Have a good night's rest! Even if you want to do something, you have to wait until dawn tomorrow." While they were chatting, the sky had turned dark yellow, and David needed to prepare for the coming night.

Except for the log cabin used as a warehouse and a kitchen, the other three log cabins have the same structure and layout: a large cabin with a place to light a fire in the middle, and simple beds around the fire. David used it two years ago. Spend the winter in such a simple environment.

  According to the plan of the pioneers, this kind of simple wooden house is only a temporary residence, but it has not been able to reclaim farmland, so that everyone is not in the mood to build their own wooden house. As a result, there are only a few temporary wooden houses here.

   Such a wooden house is poorly kept warm, and if you want to spend the night safely, you need to light a fire. David now has to move the needed firewood into it.

  Laura was also helping, but when the two of them were carrying firewood, almost at the same time they noticed a faint shadow appearing in the open space not far from the village.

   "This is... another one?"
