Chapter 1018: Burmese Refugees (1)
I didn't answer him immediately, but asked them what they were doing here and who he was.
This person, like me, did not answer the question, but continued to repeat the question just now, of course, this person's Chinese is barely strong, and it is possible that he cannot understand my question.
After all, these Burmese are now superior in numbers, and judging from the previous situation, it is likely that they already know our current whereabouts, otherwise they would not have appeared so rashly, so I don't want to turn against them for the time being.
I thought about it for a moment and decided to make up a few lies to fool this guy around, and I told him that I had just walked around the edge of Nine Rivers City, and that I hadn't gone deep into it, and that I had almost choked on the smoke and dust.
It's a pity that he didn't believe it at all, but repeated the question just now.
I knew that this seemed to be a normal solution, so I quickly swept around, and after making sure that there was no one else but the front, I made small gestures to signal the others to prepare to find a chance to leave, and I also whispered to Bai Ye to let his men see the opportunity, and if these Burmese dared to do it first, they would be killed without mercy.
However, these Burmese seemed to be planning to follow through on the peace today, and when I refused to cooperate, the tattooed Burmese simply walked up to me with his hands raised and said in a pleading tone, "We need your help." ”
......
This was a surprise to me.
"Help, help you what?" I asked, frowning.
"This kind of anger has made our original area uninhabitable, and if you can help us find a solution, we won't have to come here......"
"Native region?" I asked, "You mean Burma?"
"Yes!"
"What's wrong with Myanmar? Has this anger infected the whole region of Myanmar?"
"That's right!" the Burmese man nodded again and again and said, "We also chose to come here because we were desperate, and now not only Myanmar, as long as there is an area where Gu matter is concentrated, it will eventually be affected by these breaths." ”
I didn't expect my previous guess to be correct, these Burmese people are really here to grab land.
But they seem to have their own reasons for not being able to do so.
I began to ask the Burmese how many of them had fled this time, and where most of them were now.
The Burmese man did not mean to hide it, or he also wanted to express his sincerity, so he said it all.
Although the authenticity is not clear, at least from the information in my possession, there is no doubt about it.
He told me that about two months ago in Myanmar, the qi began to change, this change is not a qualitative change, but a quantitative change, that is, the concentration of the qi begins to become stronger with the increase of Gu matter, when the proportion of the qi in the air reaches a certain level, it will become a phenomenon harmful to the human body, and not only ordinary people, even people who have been infected by the Gu worm virus will also be fatally affected.
As the impact intensified, the Burmese had no choice but to flee, and their current group was only one part of a large number of exodus, while others had fled to colder areas in northwest China, or had simply gone abroad in search of new habitats.
And their current group of people belonged to a Maine predominantly Gushu village before the catastrophe, and after the catastrophe, they gathered about three times as many people from some of the survivors nearby, minus the number of people lost after the catastrophe, they now have a total of about 2,000 people, and all of them have moved to the border area of Dongkou Province.
They also intended to communicate with the wanderers in exchange for the right to enter the province of Dong Kou, but they were attacked, and the people of Dong Kou province killed some of their women and children, which made the Burmese angry and finally decided to raid the city of Nine Rivers.
When I heard this, I suddenly had doubts in my heart.
He said that the loiters attacked them, and I felt that this was unlikely, because whether it was Liu Yong, Mr. Qin, Zhao Tian, or even the other loiters I met in Jiuhe City, including Qi Fang, their behavior showed that they were indeed in contact with the Burmese for the first time, and even Liu Yong did not know that the attacker was Burmese.
My intuition tells me that the wanderers seem to be to blame, and that it is not the wanderers who attack the Burmese, but someone else.
Then the scope of this "other person" is much smaller, and I don't think anyone else has such strength except for those who believe in the new gods on Taoyuan Island.
In addition, a few days ago, those Taoyuan Island people had been making trouble in the border area of Dongkou Province, and it was inevitable that there would be clashes with the Burmese who had only been here for a short time.
Similarly, when the Burmese attacked the survivors' camps, they mistook them for wanderers.
After this explanation, I can roughly understand the position of these Burmese.
These people are completely different from what I thought before, first of all, their identities are not those Gu masters on Langli Island in Myanmar, they are just ordinary villagers in some villages, they only have a little understanding of Gu art before the catastrophe, and after the catastrophe, they are forced to survive, coupled with the addition of some nearby Gu masters, so that they can start to study Gu arts, and then develop to the ability to drive thousands of Gu things now.
Secondly, their motives are also very simple, purely for self-preservation, and the conflicts with the survivors and us during this period are only misunderstandings.
In the end, these people give me the feeling that they are still kind-natured, and I have the heart to absorb this group of Burmese into our team, so that we will have a Gu magic force that was most lacking before, not to mention that they can also replace the Ouyang sisters and brothers and become our new guides to enter Myanmar in the future.
Since they have all talked to this point, in order to express the idea of cooperation, I also told them about the situation I had just encountered in Jiuhe City, and I described in detail my adaptation to the internal anger in Jiuhe City, from being unbearable at the beginning to adapting to it in a short period of time.
Listen to the meaning of the Burmese people, no matter what kind of anger it is, as long as it is piled up in large quantities for a long time, it will eventually evolve into a breath that is very harmful to people, this kind of aura is still an ordinary aura produced by Gu things, as long as these breaths are diluted, then they can be restored to their original state, but now the whole Myanmar can no longer dilute the anger, because it is one of the birthplaces of the Gu worm virus, and the influence of the anger has been deeply rooted.
In addition, the anger in Jiuhe City was actually not what they foresaw, they originally wanted to drive the Gu things to concentrate on opening up the canyon area, so as to pave the way for their follow-up personnel, but they didn't expect that because the number of Gu things was too concentrated, there was a "poisonous gas" phenomenon that only happened in Myanmar in a short period of time.
But the Burmese reassured me, saying that the effects of these auras would not last long, because it was a cold area, and the suppression of aura, which would be as severe as psionic energy, would be temporarily formed, but it would not be long before it would be lifted on its own.
It was still very distressing for them to lose hundreds or thousands of Gu things because of this, but at least in exchange for the retreat of the wanderers.
I nodded, I couldn't explain to him the relationship between the Wanderers and the Wanderers, because even I wasn't sure what was going on, and it would be nice to have the Burmese go against the Wanderers.
At that moment I asked the Burmese to convey to his companion that the situation in Dongkou Province was a bit complicated, and that there were some other people to be wary of besides the wanderers they were now facing, and that they would not be able to survive here on their own, and that if they wanted to survive, they would have to form an alliance with us.
I thought that this "lobbying" would definitely take a lot of effort, but the Burmese with the tattoo agreed almost immediately, and after he relayed it to the other Burmese people around him, he also got their approval.
At this time, Zhao Tian whispered to remind me to beware of these people and prevent fraud, I sneered in my heart, and said that the possibility of them betraying me is probably much smaller than yours.
But I didn't say it, after all, I still need some of Zhao Tian's abilities to assist.
I'm just telling Zhao Tianxian not to think too much, we'll soon find out whether these Burmese are friends or foes.
Then I continued to communicate with the Burmese with the tattoo, and I was not entirely comfortable with them now, so I asked him to take me to meet his other companions.
The Burmese also agreed, saying that if I agreed to help them survive and show them how to defend against anger, they would see me as a savior.
In order to maximize safety, I didn't let the people around me separate, but decided to follow them to meet the remaining Burmese.
Now I already know that the Burmese with the tattoo is called "Gechai", the Burmese name is more unique, there is a name but no surname, this person's name is called "Chai", and "Ge" means brother, after all, this Burmese looks like he is in his thirties, older than us.
For the sake of ease of calling, I asked all of our people to call him "Brother Chai".
Gechai said that many of his companions can actually understand Chinese, but they are not fluent in Chinese, so let's not mistake other people for not understanding our words and speak casually.
The implication is obvious, that is, their people also have a lot of thorns, and they are afraid that they will cause unnecessary trouble by talking indiscriminately.
Gochai belongs to the pillar level of this group of Burmese, his own control of Gu art is already perfect, and he also has a hard kung fu, but he and other Burmese people have an obvious weakness, that is, their physique is completely ordinary people, and they have not strengthened in the slightest.
The points they are now distributed are also relatively clustered, although they are not completely together, but are divided into five communities, but they are not more than a kilometer apart from each other.
Their people are now located in the northwest of Dongkou Province, and we came from the southwest when we came, so it is normal that we did not encounter each other before.
Their 2,000 men lost about 200 in the attack on Nine Rivers City and in the previous clashes with the survivors and the people of Taoyuan Island.
And the Gu group they carried, plus the insect Gu insects, could actually be counted in tens of thousands, and these Gu things had also lost a lot, and most of them were killed by the anger generated by themselves in Jiuhe City.
However, the loss of Gu objects was not particularly serious, because Ge Guess said that as long as there were other wandering Gu creatures nearby, they could take those Gu things for their own use after a period of Gu spell training, which was a bit similar to taming wild animals.
I didn't tell Gochai that we had killed a lot of Burmese people when we were in Nine Rivers, and although we didn't know it at the time, it must have affected our previous relationship.
Now that the fighting around Nine Rivers has come to an end, and basically ninety percent of the Burmese have withdrawn, when we arrived at the temporary camp of the Burmese, we found that the Burmese team carried more women and children than I expected.
If the wounded are counted in this team, then the four categories of "old, weak, sick, and disabled" add up to nearly half!
And even among the young and middle-aged people, there don't seem to be many people with combat ability, and a considerable number of them are completely people who have never experienced fighting.
When Bai Ye saw this, he told me that we can rest assured that these people are completely safe, because they do not have the ability to invade others, and these old and sick people alone are enough to work.
In addition, they used almost all of their fighting forces in their previous attack on Nine Rivers, which means that the Burmese we killed in Nine Rivers were completely the main force of their main force.
And...... It seems that he still killed an innocent person by mistake.
But now that it's been done, there's no place to regret it, and we have to keep it all completely secret.
Under the leadership of Gochai, we met this group of Burmese "big leaders" again, in fact, it was the village chief of their village, this person looked almost sixty years old, but his physique was very strong, to be honest, I was a little suspicious that this person's physique was infected by the Gu worm virus, but I didn't bother to ask.
The village chief's name is "Deqin Bo", and he is much more cautious than Gechai, his Chinese is much more fluent than Gechai, and our communication is smoother.
Deqin Bo inquired in detail about my previous experience, and I was surprised that they didn't know anything about the "three key people", not even the Origin Project.
Since the beginning of the cataclysm, they have been using their Gu magic power to survive in their villages, and they are ignorant of the outside world.
