"Hello fellow fellow, I'm here from Qinggang. I'll stay here for one night and leave tomorrow."
Looking at the people in these villages, Lu Xin explained to them in a friendly manner.
It's not strange to greet many people when you are away from home.
Although the people in this village look a little strange, they all have slumped shoulders, slanted waists, one leg propped up on their bodies, and one leg dragged behind them, making their bodies a bit stooped. Even when he looks at people, he tilts his head and tilts his face slightly back.
But Lu Xin didn't look at them strangely because of his appearance.
Living in the wilderness, they may simply be malnourished.
As he said these words, he also smelled the aroma of meat coming from somewhere deep in the village, so his smile became more sincere.
The difference between stew and canned meat could not be more obvious.
Facing Lu Xin's kind smile, everyone in the village looked at him in silence.
Lu Xin still looked at them with a smile, his smile unchanged.
However, the silent and somewhat dull people in this village gradually began to feel a little uncomfortable.
Many people turned their heads subconsciously.
"Just you?"
Among the crowd, an old man slowly walked out. He was wearing a tattered down jacket and his wrinkles were dark and deep.
"Yes."
Lu Xin looked at him sincerely and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm just staying overnight."
As he spoke, the smell of meat wafting not far away became more and more obvious in his nose, and his stomach became obviously hungry.
Then he said, "It would be better if you could prepare some dinner. I will pay for it."
The old man looked Lu Xin up and down silently, then slowly shook his head. "Then come with me."
"You agree now?"
Lu Xin relaxed.
As expected, after previous explorations by caravans and investigators, it was determined to be the gathering point with the lowest risk factor.
Similar gathering points are generally very popular with caravans and Pioneer Team.
Although they choose to camp and stay in the wilderness most of the time, they often exchange food and salt at these gathering points for ordinary people. After going back and forth, they have already figured out the habits of these gathering points scattered in the wilderness.
That military map with a huge amount of information was made by summarizing so much information.
When Lu Xin pushed his motorcycle and followed the old man forward, the people on both sides were a little slow and separated. However, their eyes were still a little dull and slow. They kept looking at Lu Xin without any emotion in their eyes.
Lu Xin felt a little uncomfortable when they looked at him and looked back at them in a friendly manner.
If the other person doesn't blink, he doesn't blink either.
Usually when he tries to express goodwill in his eyes, the other person will take the initiative to look away.
"You can stay at Old Mrs. Meng's house. She has a vacant room here."
The old man took Lu Xin to the middle of the village, pointed to a dark house on the roadside, and said in a hoarse voice:
"People in the village go to bed early. If the guests have nothing to do, they should rest early and don't run out casually..."
"Okay."
Lu Xin agreed readily and said, "About dinner..."
But before he could finish speaking, the old man had already waved his hand and said in a hoarse voice, "Go back, everyone!"
The people who were following Lu Xin around, watching him from a distance, or hiding behind dark windows to peek, suddenly dispersed after hearing the old man's words.
Some people got into the room next to them, some people pulled down the windows violently, and some people squatted in the shadows beside the road, staring at Lu Xin for a while, with a dull and weird smile on their faces, then they backed up and slowly climbed into the alley.
...He literally crawled into the alley on all fours.
"He may have been injured, and there are no good treatment conditions in the village..."
Lu Xin sighed regretfully for him, pushed the car to the designated house, and then locked the car carefully.
"Squeak..."
He pushed open the ajar door, and what came to his face was the darkness that could not be seen.
There was a musty smell in the room, a smell mixed with old furniture, moisture, old clothes, fishy smell, etc.
Lu Xin stood quietly at the door for a while, waiting for his eyes to adapt to the darkness in the room, before looking left and right.
With the dim light coming from outside, he saw what seemed to be a big Kang near the window.
There was dark stuff piled up on the kang, which was the main source of the musty smell in the room.
There seemed to be an old lady sitting against the head of the bed. She had been looking at him silently, her eyes in the darkness looking very gloomy.
If it weren't for seeing her, Lu Xin wouldn't have known that such a person was looking at him.
An even stranger feeling was that Lu Xin felt that the old lady was not the only one looking at her in the room.
"Hello, aunt..."
Lu Xin was silent for a while, and his voice became more enthusiastic. "Is there a light in the room?"
The old man at the bedside looked at Lu Xin silently without saying a word.
Lu Xin smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, fortunately I have it."
With that said, he closed the door with his backhand, then squatted on the ground, took out a long black tube of more than ten centimeters from the bag, and gently twisted a ring on it. Suddenly, a dazzling light radiated from the head end, illuminating the room as a bright spot.
"Wow..."
Lu Xin heard the sound of something running in panic in the room.
"Don't be afraid, I'll just adjust it."
Lu Xin explained with a smile, then turned a ring under the ring.
This bright and dazzling light began to slowly soften, and finally turned into a warm pale yellow.
Then Lu Xin slowly pulled down a button on the long tube, and the lights began not to gather in one place, but spread out evenly. After placing the flashlight flat on the ground, it looks like a desk lamp without a lampshade.
This is one of the supplies Han Bing prepared for himself, a multifunctional flashlight developed by the Special Purity Department.
It has a battery and a solar charging ring. After being fully charged, it can maintain high-intensity power for more than three hours.
There is a card slot at the head. When pushed up, the light is refracted and condensed, turning it into a flashlight.
Put it down, the light will spread, and it will become a desk lamp.
The room was filled with soft light, and all the decorations were clearly illuminated.
Lu Xin saw that there was indeed a big Kang next to the window on the right side of the entrance.
There were some bedding piled on the kang, which was originally black or had changed from another color to black. They were thick and damp.
An old lady with disheveled hair and wearing a heavy cotton-padded jacket was leaning against the window, looking at herself indifferently.
Looking at her, Lu Xin couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Only then did he realize where the other look he felt looking at him came from.
The old lady actually held a child in her arms.
The child couldn't tell how big it was, and huddled in the old lady's arms.
Judging from his exposed head alone, his face was obviously deformed.
The left half of the cheek and forehead were bulging out unusually. The eyes seemed to have shrunk into pinpricks because they were not used to the light. The eyes were focused in a strange way, and the lips were turned up, revealing the upper row of black and jagged teeth.
One of his hands was also exposed outside the quilt, curled up unnaturally, like a convulsion.
Lu Xin thought about it for a moment, and felt that he looked a bit like Down Syndrome that he had checked out in the library.
In order to figure out whether he was split, he had gained some knowledge about mental illness and strange illnesses.
Under the gazes of the old lady and the weird kid, Lu Xin smiled friendly at them.
Facing Lu Xin's smiling face, the old lady turned her head and closed her eyes, while the strange child was still staring straight at him.
Lu Xin pulled a small Maza from under the table, sat down and asked, "Is there anything to eat at home?"
The old lady was silent, as if she couldn't hear him at all.
The strange kid was still staring straight at him.
Lu Xin smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, fortunately I have it."
With that said, he came outside the door and took out a large pack of instant noodles and the leftover canned beef from the box.
The can has been opened and the smell inside has wafted out.
The strange kid who was huddled in the old lady's arms on the bed twitched his nose and suddenly jumped out of the bed with a "whoosh" sound.
His speed was surprisingly fast. The little horse Lu Xin was sitting on was at least two to three meters away from the bed, and there were also actions such as lifting the quilt and getting out of bed. But he arrived in front of Lu Xin in an instant and snatched the can.
"Uh-huh!"
Lu Xin reached out and grabbed the air.
When he reached out, the strange kid had already run back to bed with the can in his arms.
"It's okay."
Lu Xin's hand was still in the air, with his palms clenched as if grasping something. As he spoke, he shook his head slightly.
He was speaking to his sister.
Seeing the strange kid snatching her things, my sister was about to rush forward, but luckily she was stopped by Lu Xin.
There was a sound of gobbling from the bed.
Lu Xin sat on the maza and watched. When he saw the strange child, he directly pulled aside the half-torn tin plate of the can, then reached out to eat the beef inside. The juice flowed out from under his outturned lips and wet his chin.
He quickly ate most of the half-box of cans, and when there was only a small mouthful left, he stopped.
He grabbed the last small piece and handed it to the old lady's mouth.
Lu Xin then retracted his gaze, smiled gently, and said, "It's okay, I still have some, and this canned beef is a bit salty, so it needs to be cooked with instant noodles to make it taste better. I brought several packages of instant noodles, and there are five pieces in each package."
As he said that, he looked to the side and said, "Is there any water?"
This time, the old lady was no longer silent. She chewed the beef in her mouth and looked at Lu Xin somewhat dullly.
As if moved by the warm smile on Lu Xin's face, she slowly raised her hand and pointed behind the door.
Lu Xin became happy. "That's great."
