Scavenging wasteland in the last days: I have fields, cattle and a villa

"Sister Yuan, can I follow you to find food today? I see that you have been alone recently, and I am alone. It is good for us to have company together. If someone comes out to bully you, I can still protect you. .”

You said it so grandly and you still protected her?

Jiang Yuan had a sullen face and didn't want to pay attention.

"Sister Yuan, do you remember? When you were a child, you were hit with a stone..."

She talked non-stop, all about the famous scene where she was bullied and Cui Yingying saved her.

After she finally finished speaking, Jiang Yuan spoke.

"The time you were hit by a stone, I got you half a steamed bun from home, the time you were thrown into a tree, I gave you a pancake, and the time your hand was pricked, I gave you a pancake. candy……"

When it was Jiang Yuan's turn to count them one by one, Cui Yingying's expression changed.

When Jiang Yuan was a child, her father was still there and he was the main labor force in the family, so although she was stupid, she lived a good life and occasionally had candy.

Every time she had something good, she would share it with Cui Yingying.

"Sister Yuan, I didn't expect... you think our relationship is so utilitarian."

"When did you save me and I didn't give you a reward?"

You, a protection fee collector, do you want to talk to me about your feelings?

Jiang Yuan said with a cold face.

Cui Yingying was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.

"But I never asked you for it. You gave it to me voluntarily. I thought we were friends, so you shared it with me. If I had known that Sister Yuan missed me so much, I wouldn't eat those things even if I killed myself. "

She cried innocently, as if Jiang Yuan had wronged her.

This man is really...so powerful.

"Really? Are you afraid that I will misunderstand you, so you don't want my things?"

"Really, I swear, if I knew that this would cause Sister Yuan to misunderstand me as having ulterior motives, I would not do it. I sincerely regard you as a friend."

She raised her hand with a sincere look on her face.

"But you are following me now, which makes me suspect that you are just using me because you want to find more food. You said we are friends, will you let me misunderstand that you are using me?"

Jiang Yuan asked back.

Cui Yingying's raised hand was a little loose, and her big confused eyes stared at Jiang Yuan with a look of disbelief on her face.

Even if she is fierce, when did she become so sharp-tongued?

For a moment, she didn't know how to answer.

"So, if you want me to treat you as a friend, don't follow me. Don't make me think that you really just want to use me."

Before she could react, Jiang Yuan said again with a smile.

Then keep walking forward.

Cui Yingying was stunned on the spot, hesitant, with struggle and pain on her face.

In the end, she didn't follow.

You can't lose a big deal for a small sum, she can just as easily find food elsewhere.

But as long as Jiang Yuan believes in her and becomes friends with her again, the benefits will definitely be indispensable in the future.

In the end, I could only grit my teeth and go in another direction.

Finally getting rid of her followers, Jiang Yuan was in a great mood.

Now that her home is safe, she wants to take back the three hares that were fostered at Brother Zhang Hu's home.

"Girl, autumn is coming soon, hasn't Lin Xiao come back yet?"

Previously, Jiang Yuan made an excuse that Lin Xiao had an old illness and was now living in the medical area of ​​the wild hunting base, so Zhang Hu didn't ask any questions.

But the question being asked now made Jiang Yuan a little puzzled.

"I'm afraid it will be a few days. The weather has been a bit cold recently."

Jiang Yuan felt cold morning and night.

Autumn comes, three days later.

Will Lin Xiao be back by then?

Zhang Hu didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw her innocent face.

Obviously she didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

"After autumn, it's the harvest season. If Lin Xiao doesn't plan to come back yet, he might not be able to participate in this harvest in time."

"But no one is farming in the slums. Wild vegetables in the forest are being picked as long as they are edible. Where is the harvest season?"

Jiang Yuan didn't understand. She even felt that after autumn, the weather turned cold, and she was afraid that there would be less to eat. Where would the harvest come from?

Seeing that she really didn't understand, Zhang Hu couldn't help complaining in his heart, how did this girl survive before?

"Winter is not suitable for going out, and autumn is very short, only thirty-seven days. The so-called harvest season means that during these thirty-seven days, people will go out and pick all the edible food, and they must also stock up on enough food. Firewood to get through the long winter.”

Zhang Hu explained that because we have to work ten times more than usual to hoard food, it is the harvest season.

"Everyone has to look for food outside all the time? But our scavenging area is not big, right?"

There's no need to camp out to find supplies. She can still go back and forth on the same day.

"In addition to a good harvest for humans, this is also the beginning of the emergence of wild beasts."

In addition to humans, it is also a great harvest for beasts.

"Brother Zhang means those beasts will attack us?"

Jiang Yuan then remembered that she had seen wild rats in the scavenging area not long ago. Groups of rats must be capable of killing people. In the eyes of today's mutant beasts, humans are also food.

Moreover, humans live in groups and have conspicuous goals.

"After autumn, everything begins to wither and food becomes less. People in the slums will choose a place the day before autumn, and then form a group to take root in the woods, lay traps, and game with wild animals. If you are lucky, you can hunt in five days. There are also those who are unlucky when it comes to hunting prey. Even if we guard for thirty-seven days, we can only find some wild vegetables and the like."

Beasts and humans regard each other as food, so it is naturally a life and death game.

Of course, the reason why it is called a harvest is because humans are still able to fight against these beasts.

Because only lowly intelligent beasts would rely on instinct to sneak attack humans.

Powerful beasts have no worries about survival in the wild and will not take the risk of rushing into human living areas in autumn.

"If Lin Xiao is not here and you can't deal with the beasts by yourself, don't come out. The beasts will start to move after autumn, which is very dangerous."

I guess your neighbors may not want to team up with you to catch prey.

According to the usual practice in previous years, people will start to come to the wild to find a suitable place to take root the day after tomorrow. If Lin Xiao is still in the hospital, they will not have time.

Although only some wild rats, pheasants, hares, wild boars and the like appeared, Zhang Hu thought Jiang Yuan was incapable of dealing with them.

So after autumn, let alone forming a group to catch prey, even scavenging?

Jiang Yuan was a little disappointed.

But then he thought of something again, and looked at Zhang Hu curiously.

"Brother Zhang, if the wild animals in the hunting area will rush into the scavenging area, wouldn't it be very difficult for you to hunt? This time the group has a bumper harvest, won't you participate?"

Since ferocious wild beasts will not come, then the wild beasts in the hunting area will attack the human living area in order to survive. Then the hunting area will lose a lot of prey. As a hunter, Zhang Hu will suffer a loss, right?
