Embers Ad Infinitum

Chapter 6: Camp

Before the sky was completely dark, the "Old Tune Team" arrived at the "Rootless" camp.

From a distance, the first thing that caught their eyes was one after another huge vehicles.

These vehicles are several times the size of the Jeep, the carriages are long and tall, and the paintings are different, either brown and white staggered, or white background with black blocks, or stripes against silver and gray.

"It's all, RV?" Jiang Baimian hadn't worn sunglasses for a long time, slowed down, and seriously discerned for a few seconds.

"Yeah." Bai Chen nodded. "The RV is the home of the ‘rootless’, and each car represents a family."

"So..." When Jiang Baimian looked at the camp again, he could see more details.

The vehicles in the camp are mainly RVs, at least dozens of vehicles, and perhaps even close to one hundred.

Among them, the RVs with the largest body are parked on the edge, forming a circle of steel walls, leaving only one opening for vehicles to enter and exit.

Through the gaps between the “walls”, you can see that the cars inside are all parked neatly, and there seem to be several even larger vehicles called giants at the core.

"What is a RV?" Long Yuehong asked without understanding.

Shang Jianyao took the initiative to help explain:

"It's the vehicle that puts the house in the carriage."

"Have you seen it?" Long Yuehong asked in surprise.

Everyone is a person who has the same education and the same experience of going out. Why have you ever seen an RV, I haven't?

Shang Jian Yao shook his head:

"never seen it.

"My guess."

At this time, Jiang Baimian laughed:

"Shang Jian Yao said that there is no big problem.

"A RV is a vehicle that turns the carriage into a residence. It has a bedroom, a toilet, a kitchen, and some even have a living room and a dining room."

"Luxury." Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong made comments at the same time.

Such a room can only be allocated D7 or above in the "Pangu Creature", or the couple has reached D4.

Bai Chen explained:

"It is said that the first'rootless people' came from the old world RV camps, which are camps for those who drive their RVs to stop."

Although she didn't understand why the old world had to do this, she still repeated what she had heard at the time.

Fortunately, Shang Jianyao did not object to this.

Bai Chen looked at the afterglow of the sunset on the car window and continued:

"You also know that at that time, it was mainly in the big cities that the unintentional disease broke out. The RV camps were okay, and there were no various attacks against them.

"So they are lucky enough to survive the destruction of the old world, but they will never return to their hometown.

"They may have tried, I don't know, but judging from the results, they definitely failed in the end.

"In the chaotic years after the destruction of the old world, they felt that it was better for everyone to gather together. There was a lot of people and more power. Then, they also found a place to settle and cultivate, but they were chased by wars, monsters and a large number of unintentional people. Attacked, driven away from the original settlement by changing weather and environment.

"Later, they got accustomed to the life in the car and the wandering of such a large team. They no longer settled, calling themselves ‘rootless people’. Well, we prefer to call them ‘rootless people’.”

Shang Jianyao asked a very serious question:

"Then what do they eat?"

"Yeah, yeah." Long Yuehong said that she wanted to ask too.

If you don’t settle down, you can’t cultivate, and you have no fixed harvest.

Bai Chen looked at the entrance of the camp getting closer and closer, and his speech speed increased slightly:

"Their initial state was closer to that of relic hunters, obtaining fuel, food, weapons, high-performance batteries, and various materials from the ruins of the city after the mass deaths of ‘unintentional’.

"At that time, every city ruin was a rich mine.

"When the era of chaos is over, big powers are established one after another. Their such a large fleet soon became the target of use. They also took the opportunity to change their identities and became those who exchanged between various forces, undertaking cargo transportation and reselling. Armed caravan."

"Why don't the big forces do these businesses by themselves?" Long Yuehong remembered that there were many large vehicles in the company's parking lot, much more than the "rootless" camp.

Hearing his question, Jiang Baimian joked:

"How can the company have so many people?

"Even a newcomer like you can get the'old tune group', and you will know how nervous the manpower is.

"We are not a'mechanical paradise'. We have neither the resources nor the technology to produce so many intelligent robots."

Long Yuehong suddenly realized.

Bai Chen casually added:

"For many big forces, they don't like to send their own people to **** materials that are not particularly important.

"Before there was a relatively large settlement, because the leader sent a large number of guards out to deliver goods, but the interior was empty and was given.

"Moreover, neutral caravans are more convenient to pass through in many sensitive areas."

Seeing that Long Yuehong and Shang Jianyao no longer have problems, she said again:

"As long as you have fuel, food, high-performance batteries and a variety of relatively good vehicle accessories, you can hire the ‘rootless’ group and let them deliver the goods for you.

"They claim to be living by petrol and electricity.

"When the weather cools down and the transaction volume decreases, the'rootless' will migrate to similar camps and spend the entire winter using the food they have previously stored. At the same time, they will also receive some transportation and trade in the surrounding area of ​​the camp. .

"This is the largest group of ‘rootless’. They often choose this camp because there is a water plant nearby that can still be used."

While talking, Jeep had already arrived at the entrance of the "Rootless" camp.

Upon seeing this, Bai Chen quickly emphasized a few more words:

"After going in, you must remember not to damage other people's vehicles.

"For the'rootless', the vehicle is their most precious property. A person who has no car and no other'rootless' family will only be abandoned.

"Also, in the past three generations, they were all born in cars. They grew up in cars and have a unique affection for cars. They no longer regard them as objects, but as family members.

"If you hurt their family, then you can't do anything good."

Jiang Baimian was very interesting and took a picture of the steering wheel:

"Sure enough, it is more unique customs and habits."

At this time, the guards standing at the front of the two large RVs raised the muzzle of the submachine gun in their hands to signal the visitors to stop.

Bai Chen pressed the car window and stuck his head out and said:

"Let's do business."

The one with the beard in the guard took a closer look and his eyes lit up and said:

"Good-looking and good-looking, this jeep is not bad!

"What's the motivation?"

"Using high-performance batteries." Bai Chen answered truthfully.

The guard has become more interested:

"Do you want to change your wife and leave it behind?"

"We are true love!" Shang Jianyao poked his head out sometime, and replied loudly.

The Guardian Hu gave a thumbs up:

"Have a vision."

He immediately lowered the muzzle and pointed at the camp with his chin:

"go in.

Hello everyone, our public account will find gold and coin red envelopes every day, and you can receive them as long as you pay attention. Please seize the opportunity for the last benefit at the end of the year. Public Account [Book Friends Base Camp]

"Stop as instructed, or you can't blame us for losing your wife."

When the Jeep passed the entrance, Long Yuehong inside the car muttered to herself in surprise:

"So simple?"

There was no proof of acquaintances, and weapons were confiscated, so that the "old tune team" entered the camp.

Jiang Baimian glanced at the rearview mirror and said with a smile:

"For the'rootless' caravan with plenty of firepower and sufficient personnel, it may be that only outsiders dare not enter, afraid of getting in but not getting out."

"It's also..." Long Yuehong thought for a moment, "Then we have to be more vigilant and can't completely trust these people."

"Yeah." Jiang Baimian followed the instructions and walked slowly on the marked road, while turning his head to Shang Jian Yao, "Next, you have to play hard!"

"I'm not a car." Shang Jian Yao was a little bit embarrassed.

"Yeah, we Xiao Baichen are such a pretty girl, they didn't even look at it, so they patronized this jeep." Jiang Baimian teased.

Bai Chen wanted to say that he was older, but after looking at Jiang Baimian's height, he silently gave up this plan.

With the help of the guide, they quickly stopped the car and walked off the jeep.

With a glance, Jiang Baimian found that the giants parked in the deepest part of the camp were dragging giant silver-gray metal cans.

"Oil tanker...no wonder it is strictly protected." As she sighed, she heard the roar of the engine from a blue-and-white painted RV next to her.

A middle-aged man wearing a baseball cap stood in front of the car, touching the hood while listening to the movement.

When the engine roar stopped, he nodded thoughtfully.

"What are you doing?" Shang Jianyao asked curiously when he skipped over.

The middle-aged man wearing a baseball cap is of medium stature, thick build, slightly darkened skin, and there seems to be some oil stains on his clothes.

Hearing Shang Jianyao's question, he stretched his eyebrows and said:

"The big guy has a temper. You have to listen to what it is dissatisfied with."

Seeing that Long Yuehong and others didn't seem to understand, he touched the RV's slightly outdated blue and white paint, then smiled and said:

"The big guy has been a member of our family since my grandfather. Now that he is getting older, his temper has become a little bit worse and he is much more boisterous.

"Haha, do you have old people in your family too? They are all for coaxing."

Shang Jian Yao took a step back~www.ltnovel.com~ took a closer look at the RV, and pointed to the light:

"It has nice eyes."

"This has been repaired twice, and it looks better when he is young..." The middle-aged man said as if he had found his soulmate.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Baimian said "in a low voice" to Bai Chen and Long Yuehong:

"Sometimes, I really think Shang Jian Yao has a talent for making friends."

They chatted for a while, and the twenty-something young man in the driving position came down with a toolbox, and together with the middle-aged man, he opened the hood and skillfully started repairs.

Shang Jianyao immediately retreated, followed Jiang Baimian and the others, through the RV, and walked to the busiest part of the camp.

Bai Chen looked back at the place just now, and said with a light smile:

"If any of you has very good car repair skills, you can even marry a few wives here."
