Chapter 2 What a hellish start!
Almost at the same time as this thought flashed through, something similar to a background story appeared in Zhou Xu's mind.
Their tribe was attacked by other tribes a week ago. After a brief battle, they were defeated and finally fled here.
However, the former tribal leader also died in the previous attack. The surviving tribe members fled here and happened to find an ancient altar that had been passed down. They used the altar to hold a summoning ceremony. He summoned him, the 'chosen son', to become the new leader and lead them on.
The existence of the system gave him a sense of unreality, and this sense of unreality invisibly relaxed Zhou Xu's state.
As a modern college student who has just graduated, Zhou Xu plays a lot of games and reads a lot of novels.
I am really not unfamiliar with things like time travel and systems.
My mind was too confused at first, but now I have calmed down and things have become clearer.
It’s just that he really didn’t expect that this thing could really hit him on the head.
Although he was already dead in that world, and it was a good thing that he could still be alive after traveling through time, but now facing this completely unfamiliar world, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in his heart. A little hesitant.
Taking a deep breath and accepting the reality, Zhou Xu knew in his heart that he had to cheer up quickly.
[In short, my first task now is to find a suitable place to camp and settle down. 】
As Zhou Xu thought, he glanced at the primitive people kneeling below. At a rough visual inspection, there should be about twenty or thirty people.
He used to play games in his dormitory. His favorite games were war strategy and business development games. He had played almost all of them on the market.
The situation in front of me is somewhat similar to some games.
As a modern college student who has just graduated, it is impossible for him to have any survival experience in the primitive world, but if he is appropriately involved in the game, he can grasp some ideas for action.
[In the game, at the beginning, you must first ensure that there are the most basic survival resources in the surrounding area, that is, fresh water and food. Under this premise, having wood and stone will facilitate later construction... 】
However, as early as just now, he had already noticed that it was surrounded by wasteland!
【Is this a rhythm that makes me chew on mud? 】
Zhou Xu, who clearly needed more information now, fell on the man in front of him.
"Do you have a name? What's it?"
In response, the frightened man hurriedly said...
"Dashan, leader, you can call me Dashan."
[Listening to the conversation, it’s not quite the same as the primitive people in my mind, but this world doesn’t look like an ordinary primitive world either. 】
“Dashan, have you just arrived here? Have you visited the nearby areas?”
Something that I thought was not difficult at first turned out to be because the surrounding environment was so bad, which doubled the pressure on Zhou Xu.
Faced with this problem, Dashan shook his head directly.
"Not yet, we were attacked by other tribes. When we fled here and found this altar, everyone was too tired to run."
Da Shan said this , Zhou Xu could basically guess what happened next.
At the same time, what Dashan said reminded him of the hostile tribe that attacked them.
If the people from the hostile tribe continue to hunt, wouldn't they be able to live in peace for the rest of their lives?
【What a hell start! 】
At this moment, Zhou Xu, who couldn't help but complain in his heart, quickly asked the question he was most concerned about.
"That tribe of people are still hunting you?"
Da Shan listened and shook his head again.
"There should be none. We have escaped quite a distance. If we chase them out again, it will be very risky for them and there will not be enough food."
"Which direction did you come from?"
“This way.”
After a simple identification, Dashan pointed to a direction.
“Are you sure?”
"OK!"
"Okay, take everyone with you and follow me."
As he spoke, Zhou Xu led a group of tribe members under his command and moved in the opposite direction. stand up.
Everywhere he could see in this area was wasteland. It was not a good place to camp.
Under this premise, since we have to move both vertically and horizontally, why not further establish a safe distance from the enemy tribe?
Zhou Xu could see the fatigue of the tribe members below, but after receiving the order, they still gritted their teeth and stood up, moving with Zhou Xu without much dissatisfaction or complaint on their faces. This situation made Zhou Xu feel a little more relieved.
Although these people respected him as their leader before, they knelt and worshiped him and showed great respect, but whether he could command them or not was another matter.
Especially when they are obviously too tired to leave anymore.
Zhou Xu is undoubtedly satisfied with the results in front of him.
"I still need a few people to explore the road ahead. Who still has the physical strength?"
Faced with this problem, all the tribe members looked at each other.
It’s not that they don’t want to go, but now they are too tired just to follow. How can they still have the strength to run to the front to explore the way?
Seeing this, Dashan immediately stood up and made a suggestion.
“Chief, how about I go?”
Just as Dashan said this, a hand stretched out from the crowd.
"I'm going to explore the way."
As he spoke, a lean, gray-faced man walked out of the crowd.
“I still have the strength, I will explore the way.”
“What is your name?”
"Fei Que."
During this period, Zhou Xu glanced at the tribe members again. After seeing that no one came forward, he turned his attention to Fei Que.
"Okay, Feiqiao, I'll leave this matter to you. You don't have to run too far. Prioritize your own safety. If you find any situation, come back and report to me immediately."
"Yes!"
In response, Feique didn't hesitate, and soon the large group of troops were trotting away to explore the way ahead.
Dashan originally wanted to follow, but was stopped by Zhou Xu.
"Da Shan, you stay here, I want to ask you something."
"Yes."
After simply sending one person forward to explore the way, Da Shan The troops were on the move again.
And Zhou Xu also made full use of the time during the move and asked Dashan.
"Is there still food in the tribe?"
"Everyone should have some, but not much."
Facing Zhou Xu, the chosen one, the other party has nothing to hide I mean, I took out a few dirty things directly from my body.
Zhou Xu glanced at it and could probably tell that it was something similar to plant roots, with a few pieces of bark mixed in.
[No wonder everyone is as hungry as skin and bones. Food pressure is greater than I expected, but this may have something to do with the poor surrounding environment. 】
Just as Zhou Xu was thinking this, Fei Que, who was assigned to explore the road ahead, trotted back.
"Linzi, there is a forest ahead!"
"Lead the way!"
Hearing this, Zhou Xu quickly cheered up and hurriedly let Feiqiao Lead the way.
The distance was not too far. After walking for about ten minutes, a forest in the distance caught Zhou Xu's eyes.
Originally, finding a forest should be a good thing, but looking at the forest, Zhou Xu frowned.
The 'forest' in the distance was completely different from the forest in his impression. The trees were bare, with almost no leaves visible.
At the same time, the main bodies of the trees all showed a black color and looked strange. The whole forest had a strange atmosphere.
Normally, Zhou Xu would never want to get close to such a forest, but looking around at the wasteland, the current situation seemed to give him no choice...
[Forget it. , go and take a look first. 】
"Everyone, cheer up and be careful."
With this mentality, after reminding everyone to be careful, the group of people moved to the outskirts of this strange forest smoothly.
