Chapter 51: The Forgotten Nation

After the meal, Betty stayed alone to wash the dishes, while the punk imps ran to play with the children in the village, and Jim took Ruan Chi to the outside of the village.

It is really wrong to describe this place as a practical village, because Ruan Chi quietly observed, and felt that the population here was definitely only a hundred people, not to mention the simple architecture of the village, and even the fence used to defend against wild beasts was not fenced.

Along the way, Ruan Chi finally learned about the situation of this so-called village from Jim.

It turns out that they are just a group of wanderers, and in order to survive, they often move places, ranging from a few days and a half months to a year and a half.

It's no wonder that most of the buildings I just saw are animal skin tents, and even if there are wooden houses, they are all makeshift sheds.

Ruan Chi once asked Jim why he didn't take root in one place and had to wander around like this, but he didn't expect Jim to answer like this.

"If we stop wandering, we won't be able to grab food."

Jim still had a relaxed smile on his face when he said this, but for a moment, Ruan Chi caught the sadness in his eyes that could not be concealed.

Ruan Chi wanted to ask why he didn't open up the land and cultivate it himself, but when he followed Jim to a huge gray rock, Ruan Chi understood.

As far as the eye could see, there were gray-brown rocks, Ruan Chi thought at first that it was just nearby, but he didn't expect that this rocky field was endless at all.

It's no wonder that this kind of hard rock ground can grow plants.

The sky was also gray, and although there was sunlight, it was very faint, so it was no wonder that there was always a coolness in the air.

"What is your country? Isn't there a decent piece of land? Ruan Chi put his hand in front of his forehead and asked as he looked at the wasteland.

Unexpectedly, Jim smiled and said, "It's a good place here, the terrain is open, and once a meteor falls, we can find the exact landing point as soon as possible." “

"Shooting stars?"

Ruan Chi just wanted to ask what this thing was, but at this time, there was a rumbling sound in the sky, the sound was very loud, a bit like the sound of the engine of the machine, very noisy.

"Machine qì, there is still a machine in this world?"

Ruan Chi looked up curiously at the place where the sound came from, and saw a small black dot approaching this side at the end of the gray clouds on the horizon.

"Here it is, today's meteor!" The smile on Jim's face was bright, and the look in his eyes was the same as when he had just looked at the broth in Ruan Chi's bowl.

As the voice became louder and louder, the small black dot gradually became larger, and the appearance quietly became clear, and soon flew over Ruan Chi's head.

It's actually an airplane, but it's a bit too crude. It looks like a rugby ball, with five propellers like bamboo dragonflies mounted on it, and where does most of the noise come from.

Not only that, but the tail of the injector-like thing has been emitting thick black smoke, no matter how you look at it, it is an inferior aircraft with exhaust emission standards.

"Is this a meteor?" Ruan Chi really couldn't think of any connection between this iron lump and a meteor, but it was a bit similar to some steam ships that Ruan Chi had come into contact with in the eighteenth and nineties before, but what people emitted was steam, and all it emitted was black smoke.

"It's the dwarven airship, and meteors will drop from it." Jim explained next to him.

What is it put down from it?

Ruan Chi looked puzzled, his eyes followed the airship, only to see that it had completely flown over and was heading in another direction not far behind him.

Jim continued to stare intently, as if he was really waiting for something.

Not to mention, although the workmanship of this thing is rough, it flies quite quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it reverts to the shape of a small black dot.

"Isn't it here this time?" Jim's expression grew more and more lost, and his tense hands slowly let go.

At this moment, another small black dot flew far away and suddenly another small black dot broke away and fell down in a free fall.

Rumble!

Although it was already a long distance, Ruan Chi still heard a loud noise, it should be some large heavy object dropped from the airship.

"Here it is, the meteor has appeared." Jim let out an excited cry and grabbed Ruan Chi's hand and danced where it was.

"It just threw something down, what kind of meteor is it?" Ruan Chi was puzzled, unable to understand what Jim was excited about.

After a while, Jim calmed down, he took Ruan Chi's hand, and couldn't help but run back in the direction of the "village", "Quick, tell everyone about the meteor's appearance." ”

Ruan Chi didn't know what to say, so he could only run with the excited Jim.

The two of them soon returned to the "village", and everyone obviously heard the loud noise just now, and had already gathered together early to talk about each other.

"Did Jim see that?" A big man with a tiger's back came out of the crowd, and Ruan Chi looked at his name, which turned out to be Uncle Howard in Jim's mouth.

"See, north-northeast, about 1o kilometers by eye." Jim gasped.

Hearing the news, everyone cheered, only Howard said solemnly, "It's a good thing that a meteor appears, but everyone can't be careless until they get food from the meteor." ”

Howard's words calmed down the excited people.

In order to get to the landing point of the meteor, Howard began to ask everyone to pack up and pack out, worthy of a wanderer, the cleaning up was simply too fast, it was only less than ten minutes, and everyone was already on the way.

Looking at the wooden house left behind by the people behind him, Ruan Chi couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why are you looking for a meteor?" ”

"Food, water, everything that will keep us alive." Jim's eyes looked ahead, and he explained like this, but soon saw Ruan Chi's puzzled expression, Jim smiled dryly, "I'm sorry, forget that you are a refugee who escaped from the Kingdom of Ranster, and you shouldn't know much about the situation in our country." ”

After a pause, Jim continued: "Our country doesn't actually have a name, and the name Oberdo was also changed by the people of the land of Survival, which means hope. As for what the real name of our country is...... The Forgotten Nation. ”

"The Forgotten Nation?"

"A forgotten nation."

When Jim said this, Betty next to him lowered her head, and Ruan Chi also noticed that the expressions on some people's faces also became strange.

"The Forgotten Land of Oberdo, located in the easternmost part of the Great Miracle 6, was a thriving place a thousand years ago, but since the Third War of the Throne was fought here, it has become a land of no grass. No one would establish a regime in such a place, so the country existed in name only, and most of the people who lived here were abandoned slaves or exiled politicians from nearby neighboring countries, as well as their ...... Descendant. ”

The smile in Jim's eyes faded, as if telling an old story.
