survival in the wilderness

Chapter 268 Rumors
With An Cheng's joining, a group of four walked on the road, and there was no quiet time.

Lin Yan looked at An Cheng, who was warm and thoughtful, and felt a lot of pressure.This is to regard her as an ancestor.

I didn't expect him to be so considerate and considerate as a hunk.

Huo Yang and Lu Yu think that they are really inferior.They also like to respect Lin Yan, but they absolutely cannot do what An Cheng does.

Lu Yu glared at An Cheng, "Take it easy, Lin Yan frowned without seeing it."

An Cheng said indifferently: "What do you know, it's rare to see Lin Yan, I really can't help it."

Lin Yan looked around while walking, "An Cheng, do you know what's different here?"

"It really is." As an avid fan, An Cheng also knew that Lin Yan was interested in all kinds of novelty things, so he strongly recommended: "I heard from people in Daban village that if you walk over the mountains and walk through the depressions, there is a place beyond the world. It is said that the people there don’t have to worry about food and drink, they dress brightly, and everyone lives a good life, it seems to be called Wu Kingdom.”

"Really? How did the people of Daban Village know?" Lin Yan regained his spirits. This was the first time he heard of the existence of other countries.If it is true, you must go and see it.

An Cheng scratched his head, "I don't know if it's true or not. It was passed down from the ancestors of Daban Village, and I don't know how many generations it has been passed down. It is said that a long time ago, a person from Wu Kingdom came to Daban Village , and finally died in the village."

"The people in Daban Village have really seen people from Wu Kingdom?"

"should be."

Lin Yan nodded and asked, "How many days will it take to reach Daban Village?" She couldn't wait, this information was too important.

"Seven or eight days, according to our schedule, we can arrive in seven days." An Cheng looked at Lin Yan who was a little excited, and his heart moved slightly, "Do you want to go to Wu Kingdom?"

"Of course, a place that can be called a country must be more prosperous and lively than our barren mountains." Lin Yan's eyes sparkled, "There must be something we need there."

Lu Yu was puzzled, "We have everything now, we don't have to worry about food and drink, and we live a good life. What else do we need?"

All three looked at Lin Yan, not understanding why she was so excited.

Lin Yan: "...You don't understand, you will understand when you see it. Our current life is still far away, and the material is still too scarce. It takes time to change. Maybe we can do it by ourselves, but It's too long. Since there are ready-made ones, why don't we learn from them."

The three of them seem to understand, they are already very satisfied with their current life.They all came from the era of savages, and the transformation of these years has been extremely happy for them.

It is not easy to walk from the coal mine to Daban Village. They are all mountain trails. In some places, there are even no roads. It all depends on feeling.

Fortunately, people in Daban Village often walk here, leaving marks along the way, otherwise they really can't find the place.

Stop and go along the way, fierce beasts frequently appear in the mountains, as long as they don't take the initiative to hurt people, they don't care.When encountering ferocious ones, they need to work together to strangle them.

There were many dangers, and during the break, Lin Yan couldn't help but sigh: "The people in Daban Village are really risking their lives to make money."

"That's right. Most of them are in groups, and they don't dare to move around when there are few people." An Cheng felt the same way, "I heard that Daban Village is too poor, and some people plan to settle down by the coal mine. This way, they don't have to run back and forth. , it is also close to Ming City, and some people want to directly settle down in Ming City."

Huo Yang agreed: "These people have good ideas. Mingcheng will definitely get better and better in the future. It will only be better if you move out of the mountains. This road is too difficult to walk, and it is very inconvenient to go back and forth."

Lu Yu: "That's right, whether it's Mingcheng or the coal mines, it's better than going to the mountains."

Seeing that Lin Yan was silent, An Cheng asked, "You don't want them to move?"

Lin Yan shook his head, "No, of course they want to move. I'm thinking about Wu Kingdom. How many days are we going to arrive?"

"Soon, we will arrive in two days." An Cheng thought of Daban Village, "Actually, the life of the people in Daban Village is only a little better than ours at that time. They live in caves, wrapped in leaves, and Wild fruits and meat in the mountains are eaten, and some people still eat raw meat."

Thinking of what he saw when he went to Daban Village, An Cheng couldn't bear it, "It would be great if they could all move out. The young and middle-aged all came out to dig coal, and the rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled had a harder time. When recruiting people , Those people are scrambling to come, but looking at their thin appearance, how dare they want them."

They are all people who came from poverty. Huo Yang and Lu Yu can imagine what An Cheng said, and it would be best if they could move out.

Ming City is under construction, if they can move in, they will be able to catch up with the good times.Adults will have more opportunities to earn money, children will have the opportunity to go to school, and the fate of the family will be completely changed.

In the evening two days later, Lin Yan and the others arrived at Daban Village.

Sure enough, it was dilapidated and poor as An Cheng said. An Cheng came here once, knew people, and found a cave to repair for a night.

They brought three fat gray rabbits into the village, gave two out as gifts, and kept one for themselves.

The next day, Lin Yan asked An Cheng to take her to find someone to learn about Wu Guo early in the morning.

Outsiders rarely come to Daban Village, and when they come out, they are surrounded by villagers.

Pointing around them, especially the clothes on them, made the villagers envious.

The skinny child's big eyes were full of curiosity and envy, Lin Yan felt a little uncomfortable looking at it.They are still very small, with dark bodies wrapped in big leaves, and some are naked, which makes people unbearable to look at.

Most of the young and middle-aged people in Daban Village went to the coal mines, and the rest had to go out early and return late to hunt, leaving only a group of old, weak, sick and disabled in the village.

I met a few old people, and they were very sure of the visitor from the Wu Kingdom, and they also took out the relics left by the visitor from the Wu Kingdom to prove that it was a parchment scroll.

With trembling hands, Lin Yan opened the parchment scroll, which was about [-] centimeters long and [-] centimeters wide. It was a small piece, outlined with ink-colored lines, and a few lines of unknown handwriting.

It looks like a map, the handwriting is not recognizable, but Lin Yan is sure that it does prove the existence of Wu Kingdom.

The rumored person had really visited Daban Village and left behind a parchment scroll, which may be a map from Wu Kingdom.

No matter what, Wu Kingdom is real.This made Lin Yan extremely excited. After more than ten years in this world, he finally got news about the outside world.

No matter how far it is from Wu Country, she will definitely find it.

Lin Yan asked An Cheng to tell the villagers about the outside world and encouraged them to move out of here.

Whether it is the elderly or children, it is really exciting.But the long journey, the many crises, and the unknown future made them worry a lot.

With Lin Yan's permission, An Cheng promised the villagers that he would find them a place to live.

After visiting the valley where sugarcane grows, Lin Yan prepared for transplanting according to the method provided by the Science and Technology Museum.
