Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 22 Found the rightful owner

Xia Hong's style is completely different from that of previous logging teams. Although it is based on sufficient resources, it doesn't care about those people in the camp who don't understand.

They just thought that Xia Hong was capable and selfless.

Ever since the distribution of the cold beast meat that night, everyone in the camp had a fanatical look on their faces when they saw Xia Hong, and then respectfully called him "leader".

Respect and admiration, almost to the point of being a believer, without exaggeration.

Xia Hong would not be so foolish as to stop everyone from doing this, given the special circumstances and circumstances.

Hiding in the shadows for years, without seeing the sun, without enough food or clothes, the situation of the people in the camp is so desperate that it is not enough to describe it.

In such a world, it is not a bad thing to let them have someone to rely on in their hearts.

After all, when you have someone to rely on in your heart, you will naturally have hope.

Of course, all of this is based on the premise that there is enough cold beast meat.

Excluding seventy kilograms, according to the ratio of 3:5:2, Xia Hong got 120 kilograms of cold beast meat. According to his current progress of cultivation, this meat would only last him half a month.

Yue Feng and the other four were also each given 120 kilograms of meat. Xia Hong had calculated that based on their progress, the amount of meat they were given this time would not be enough for them to break through.

Therefore, there is still a shortage of cold beast meat, and hunting cannot stop.

Fortunately, as long as nothing unexpected happens, at least there will be no shortage of torches.

"You can't stop collecting wood. As long as there are torches, hunting is just a matter of probability. If you encounter a strong one, don't rush in. As long as you can attract the cold beasts every time, you will get something sooner or later."

The cold beast meat had been distributed and everyone started to grill around the campfire.

After a while, the whole cave was filled with the aroma of meat, and those people in the camp who had not eaten cold beast meat for a long time or had never tasted it all had an intoxicated look on their faces.

Seeing the satisfied expressions on everyone's faces, Xia Hong felt as if something in his heart was gently touched.

In the previous life, a meal of meat was the simplest thing.

But here, it has become a luxury for these people.

In his previous life, he suffered from ALS. He hated the world so much that he blamed it for being unfair. In the end, he even chose to end his life.

He felt it was unfair. What about these people in the Daxia camp?

What about the other humans living in this horrific winter world?

Do these people think it's fair?
Who should they blame for living in the shadow?

"Perhaps, the reason I came to this world is because I hope I can do something for them..."

………………

Just when the Daxia camp was in high spirits.

On the outskirts of Redwood Ridge, Shi Qing, with the twelve members of the Dashi Logging Team, searched Daxia's territory for several rounds, and his expression became increasingly grim.

"For three days in a row, not even a hair can be found. Don't Lao Ding and his gang need to go out and look for food?"

Shi Dong had a bad temper and after searching for several rounds without any results, he became impatient.

Wang Ming, who was holding a big knife, also frowned, but after turning his head to look towards the east side of Hongmu Ridge, he turned to Shi Qing and said:

"Brother, how about we go to the slope?"

As soon as Wang Ming said this, everyone suddenly fell silent.

Even Shi Qing did not answer immediately, but fell into silence.

Weak camps like theirs basically adhere to an unspoken rule.

That is, we must remain secretive from each other.

Human nature under resource shortages is extremely terrifying.

In the early days, there were dozens of camps around Redwood Ridge.

If there is enough food, then there is nothing to worry about.

But once we can't get crystal fruits and other food, we'll be at the end of our rope.

People are not inedible.

Moreover, only people in the logging realm can go out freely at night. It is hard not to think too much if a person from the logging realm barges into someone else's camp.

Therefore, the weaker the camp, the more hidden they are from each other.

Of course, since Dashi and Daxia are neighbors, even if it is hidden, they actually know each other's general location, but it is not so accurate.

But if it is true as Wang Ming said, they can rush to the other side of the slope and find the location of the Daxia camp.

The feud between the two sides would become even bigger. It is even possible that it could develop into a deadly situation.

"No need. Lao Ding helped us before, and I don't really want to do anything to him. I just want to teach him a lesson so that they won't have any bad ideas in the future."

Shi Qing shook his head and rejected Wang Ming's proposal.

As they are both small camps, although there is competition, to put it bluntly, they are all humble people trying to survive.

Of course he was angry that Da Xia had taken advantage of the snow-maned man.

But to be fair, the other party did not directly harm them.

What's more, Xia Ding had helped them when they were short of manpower for hunting before.

It's too ugly and unnecessary.

"Hey, there's someone over there, is it Lao Ding?"

While he was deep in thought, Shi Dong suddenly pointed to the inner area of ​​the dense forest.

Shi Qing and the others all looked in the direction he was looking.

Sure enough, in the depths of the dense forest, there were more than a dozen figures slowly walking towards them.

Shi Qing was an archer with excellent eyesight and he quickly identified thirteen of them.

The logging team of the Daxia camp, including Xia Ding, consisted of exactly thirteen people.

After taking a closer look at the leader's body shape, Shi Qing immediately confirmed it.

"It's Lao Ding, I finally found it, follow me!"

Finally found the rightful owner.

Shi Dong, Wang Ming, and ten other people immediately followed Shi Qing.

Sure enough, it was Xia Ding.

The leader was indeed Xia Ding. Three of their brothers had died a few days ago, and the Snow Mane had been taken advantage of. These two things suddenly came to the minds of everyone in the Dashi Camp, and they all became furious.

"Lao Ding, we've been neighbors for so many years, and you dare to trick me!"

Unlike Shi Qing's relatively polite rebuke, Shi Dong and Wang Ming were very impolite, even excessive.

"Xia Ding, how many kilograms of snow-maned flesh are left? Hand it over to me, or don't blame me for my arrows not recognizing people."

"Three of our brothers died, and you took Snowmane away without even saying hello. If you don't give me an explanation today, you can't leave."

However, after the three men finished speaking, neither Xia Ding nor the twelve people behind him reacted at all.

Just staring at them blankly.

After a long time, a smile gradually appeared on Xia Ding's face.

But this smile seemed extremely strange to everyone in the Dashi camp.

This smile is obviously normal, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like it was forced on a person whose facial features don't quite match.

Shi Qing frowned, and before he could say anything, his younger brother Shi Dong couldn't help but took two steps forward and cursed:

"Laughing, are you deaf?"

But even after being scolded, Xia Ding and his gang did not react at all.

Looking at the stiff expression on Xia Ding's face and the twelve members of the logging team standing in the shadows behind him, Shi Qing instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

whoosh...

A sharp sound like a silver needle cutting through the air suddenly rang out.

Shi Qing's expression suddenly changed. He retreated violently, then drew his bow and drew his arrow, and shouted to everyone:

"Something's wrong, retreat immediately!"

However, it was already too late.

The three people who were retreating the slowest suddenly had stiff expressions and stood still, motionless.

Looking more closely, the pupils of the three people had become dilated, and a tiny red dot appeared between their eyebrows.

Blood gradually flowed out of the red dot.

Three bodies fell to the ground.

Shi Qing and the others had expressions of shock on their faces.
