MTL - Gao Wu: Invincibility Begins with Basic Archery-Chapter 1 no prey

  Chapter 1 No Prey

  The sky is getting later and later, and it won't be long before night falls, completely covering the entire land.

  Chen Fan stood in the crowd, like the vast majority of people, stood on tiptoe, looked towards the distant horizon, and tried his best.

  Deep in the wilderness, the roar of fierce beasts sounded from time to time.

  If the hunting team cannot return to the castle before it is completely dark, what they will face is boundless darkness and fierce beasts that attack anytime and anywhere.

  Suddenly, Chen Fan felt his arm tighten. He looked down and saw that it was his mother with a pale face, grabbing his arm with helplessness in her eyes.

   "Mom, don't worry, Dad and the others will be back soon, right now."

  He comforted softly.

  The woman nodded, then looked up eagerly into the distance.

  Chen Fan glanced around, and the faces of hundreds of people were filled with anxiety and panic.

  He sighed inwardly. He didn't know why. He just took a nap on the subway, and when he woke up, he traveled here. Today is the second day after he traveled here.

  This world is similar to the previous life. The difference is that ten years ago, the world changed, and the birds and beasts, including flowers and trees, all changed. Not only did they become bigger, but they also became cruel, bloodthirsty, and extremely aggressive.

  Among human beings, there are awakened ones. Their spiritual power is far superior to that of ordinary people, and they can control wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Some top awakened people can even destroy a town in a previous life without fear of hot weapons.

Of course, there are very few awakened ones. The places where they are are gradually forming cities, attracting survivors to go. I heard that some large cities, like ten years ago, have electricity, internet, delicious food, and clean water. , People still take the subway to work, nine to five, as in the past.

  Resources are limited after all. The vast majority of ordinary people are not qualified to enter cities, even small cities.

   Not to mention electricity, even the most basic life safety cannot be guaranteed. There is a lack of food, medicine, energy, and daily necessities, and they walk on the edge of life and death all day long.

  For example, the original owner of the body, because he couldn’t bear it because of hunger, sneaked out, ate unknown fruits in the wild, developed a high fever for three days, and finally died, allowing him to occupy the body.

   "Could it be that something really happened?"

  He couldn't help clenching his fists.

  At this moment, an excited shout came from the wooden watchtower seven or eight meters high next to it, "Here they come! They are coming!"

"Really!"

   "Where is it? Why didn't you see it?"

   "People stand tall and see far away, but we will soon be able to see it too."

   "Great, finally came back."

  The crowd was completely boiling, looking far away, I saw some small black spots slowly appearing on the horizon, getting closer, getting closer, everyone felt relieved, and the smiles on their faces became thicker.

  However, when the team approached, the smiles on people's faces gradually froze.

  I saw a group of a dozen or so people, holding bows, arrows and spears, looking embarrassed. Several of them were supported to walk, and some were carrying them on their backs.

   Can see at a glance, no prey.

   Those who are more sensitive find that the number of people is still a few fewer.

  The team approached slowly and stopped in front of the suspension bridge. The leader had a square face and a stern face. There were several **** wounds on his right arm, but at this moment, guilt was written all over his face.

  Time seems to freeze at this moment.

The man licked his chapped lips, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, this time, we encountered two mid-level ferocious beasts, they attacked suddenly, and we not only lost our original prey, Zhu Zi, A Hua, Xiao Gao, they all... "

  Before the words were finished, a few people in the crowd felt the world spinning and fainted.

   There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and the people around hurriedly picked up the fainted person and sent them home.

  The rest of the hunting team also bowed their heads in shame, not daring to look into the eyes of the old and weak women and children.

  Chen Fan's body trembled slightly.

   Dead?

   Also died three at a time.

   It seems that in the memory of the original owner, this was the worst casualty.

  The square-faced man named head is the father of the original owner of the body, the leader who led everyone to build this castle.

  Sparse voices sounded, some sobbed, some sighed, and some spoke to comfort them.

  The hunting team slowly entered, and the suspension bridge in front of the gate was also pulled up. The entire camp was surrounded by a wall more than three meters high, which seemed impregnable and gave people a rare sense of security.

  Wife and children of the injured man, seeing the man seriously injured, heartbroken, but thinking of the few people who went out with him in the morning but never came back in the evening, they secretly rejoiced.

   Those who suffered only minor injuries left with their families. After a while, it was completely dark, and the entire camp was plunged into darkness. They could only see their surroundings clearly with the help of the faint moonlight.

   "Guodong, your arm."

  The woman grabbed the right arm of the square-faced man, and two lines of tears fell from her eyes.

  Chen Fan walked over. He had just traveled for a few days, and he was still a little uncomfortable with this identity.

   "I'm fine."

  Chen Guodong shook his head and blamed himself: "It's all my fault. If I could have found those two beasts earlier, Zhu Zi and the others would not, and would not..."

"Snapped!"

A big solid hand patted on his shoulder, and a big bald man comforted him: "Guodong, it's not your fault, if you want to blame it, blame this **** world, those of us who survived , sooner or later there will be such a day.”

   "Go back and rest early."

  He patted the latter on the shoulder again, then grinned at the serious Chen Fan, and took his family back.

   "Dad, let's go back first."

  Chen Fan said: "My brother is still at home."

  Chen Guodong was startled, and nodded.

  The entire castle fell into a deathly silence. In the room next to it, the fire was beating, and there were crackling and crackling sounds from time to time, as well as weak conversations.

   "Mom, I'm hungry and I want to eat more."

   "Sleep, you won't be hungry when you fall asleep."

   "But I'm really hungry?"

   "Be obedient, if you eat those things, you really have nothing to eat."

  The voice gradually weakened.

  Chen Guodong's face became more and more guilty.

  Chen Fan caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye, and sighed inwardly. Although the father of the original body was reticent, he was an upright and kind person.

   Every time there is prey, it is equally distributed to the people in the village, and the old and weak women and children are raised, so that their own family is stretched, which makes many people complain.

  Recently, luck is bad, there are very few prey, and there is not much food in the whole village, and everyone is starving.

  Winter is coming soon, if this continues, I'm afraid there will be a tragedy of cannibalism.
