Chapter 912: The gorge village
Translator: 549690339
The conversation was divided into two parts …
After experiencing a rather long and monotonous desert journey, in front of the hell frontline … Finally appeared a place with a large population.
Compared to the desert village that was the size of a small city, the place that Feng bujue and the others had arrived at could only be considered a small village.
The village was located in a Canyon. The towering rock walls on both sides protected the people here from the wind and sun, and also allowed the village to avoid the eyes and ears of many bandits.
There were various shacks, rock frames, and caves that were closely integrated with the terrain, forming a unique architectural style.
!!The rabbits that lived here looked like the kind of people who were more law-abiding. Most of them wore coarse cloth or woven clothes, and there was a clear difference in their body size compared to the slave traders in the desert.
It wasn’t that these villagers were different from the bandit rabbits. It was just that these people (rabbits) relied on hard work to barely fill their stomachs, so their physiques were naturally not as strong as those who relied on robbery to feed themselves.
Clang clang clang clang clang clang
“The slave traders are here! Everyone, quickly hide!”
When the hell frontline team approached the entrance of the canyon on their motorcycles, the sound of iron striking immediately rang out in the village. They could also clearly hear people shouting loudly to warn the villagers.
“Brother Jue … I think we’ve been misunderstood …” Seeing that, Xiao Tan turned around to say.
“It’s probably because we’re riding motorcycles. ” Feng bujue replied.
“It could also be because the members of corpse saber second squad entered the village ahead of us and said something to the villagers.” Xiao Ling added.
“Eh?” With her reminder, Xiao Tan immediately said in shock,”doesn’t that mean we might be ambushed?”
“Don’t be nervous …” Feng bujue said in a relaxed tone.”Even if the people from corpse knife really did come to this village, they would at most have said some bad things about us to the villagers. You’re obviously overthinking the ambush … Unless the enemy knew in advance that we would definitely come to this village, why would they ambush us?” He paused and continued,”let’s take a step back … If they really knew we were coming and planned to ambush us here …” He turned his head and gestured to the front with his eyes.”…Then how could we see this ‘alerting’ scene?”
“Oh …” Xiao Tan caught on quickly.”You’re right …”
As they spoke, they had already arrived at the village entrance, and the defensive line formed by the villagers was already in place.
A “mobile wall” made of scrap metal, stones, and plastic was put down and blocked the players ‘way. There were many sharp objects protruding from the wall, and it looked like it was real.
Behind the wall was a row of ‘fully armed’ villagers, both men and women. Their weapons were mainly sticks and self-made Spears (usually, the tip of a long stick was tied with a sharpened stone or a metal spearhead). Their defensive equipment was a variety of simple sports equipment and self-made shields (there were garbage can lids, manhole covers, plastic plates, and so on, and some shields even had obvious holes on them). The few crossbow-wielding fellows were probably the most powerful among the group of people (rabbits), but they were obviously not enough to deal with the players.
“Stop! You bunch of slave traders! You’re not allowed to come near our village!” Before the players could stop the car, they heard a delicate shout.
Feng bujue focused. The one who shouted was a female alien holding a crossbow. She was standing in the middle of the defense line.
“Ha …” Brother Jue smiled and used a gentler tone to reply,”please don’t misunderstand. We are not slave traders.” He pointed at the motorcycle he was riding.”We snatched this motorcycle from a group of slave traders.”
Who knew that the other party would immediately follow up with a sentence,””So you guys are robbers?”
In a sense … This logic wasn’t wrong …
“No..~No..~~Feng bujue maintained his calm and kindness~even though he was being glared at by dozens of hostile rabbitfolk, he still appeared to be slow. His calm and unhurried attitude … Was undoubtedly part of his negotiation skills.”The four of us … Are just travelers who came to your planet due to an accident. As we were attacked by slave traders not long ago, we had no choice but to use force to resist. In the end, those guys weren’t our match, so they left the motorcycles behind and ran away. ”
“Who would believe your words?”
“Don’t think we’re easy to fool!”
“Right! Quickly get back! Don’t come near our village!”
Obviously, these words alone were not enough to make these NPCs buy it.
“Haha …” Brother Jue naturally would not turn around and leave just like that. He was brave enough, thick-skinned enough, and strong enough. No matter what you said … He would not leave.”Everyone … You have no reason to doubt my words.” He spread his hands and put on a sincere look.”Look … We’re not from the tuntu planet at all. I’ll say something unsightly … What reason do we have to go to a barren planet to be bandits?”
After he said that, the noise from the villagers died down because what Feng bujue said was common sense. Even if the villagers had a deep prejudice against outsiders, they could not deny this obvious fact.
“Everyone … We really don’t have any ill intentions. We just want to stay in your village and take a rest.” Feng bujue saw that the man’s attitude had softened, so he quickly added,”if you’re worried that we’re going to steal your food and water, then you don’t have to worry …” As he said that, he lowered his head to give Xiao Tan a look.
Xiao Tan immediately understood and took out a few bags of snacks from his inventory.””Yes, yes, we have plenty of food on us …” He seemed to have suddenly remembered something. Then, he took out a large bottle of mineral water from his bag, raised it high, and said,”look, we have water too.”
When they saw the bottle of water in Xiao Tan’s hand, the eyes of the people from the rabbit planet turned red.
They had not seen such clean and transparent water for a long time …
80% of the water used by the villagers came from the well water deep underground. The water was more or less contaminated, and the amount was not large. Most of it had to be used to irrigate the crops, and only a small portion could be used for drinking. As for the remaining 20%… It’s all processed, recycled water. You can imagine how it’s recycled … Anyway, this water can only be used to wash things, not even for drinking.
All in all … For these villagers who lived in the apocalypse, a clean bottle of water was a luxury, far more valuable than gold.
Xiao Tan did not expect that his unintentional act would become their way into the village.
“If that’s the case … Just you wait …” The female leader of the alien rabbits was stunned for a few seconds. She swallowed her saliva and her attitude softened.”I’m going to ask the ‘elder’ first.” (To be continued.)
