After a while, the sun was blocked by clouds again.
Mu Liang is just reminding the people in the camp, if they don't believe it.
The day after tomorrow, he will leave with the girl.
In such a world, it is necessary to do what we can to show kindness.
"By the way, how is your relationship with the people in the camp? Do you have any friends?"
Mu Liang doesn't know much about the girl's social circle yet.
"A few people who have caught small lizards together have a good relationship."
Mino looked sideways into the distance, and said indifferently, "I avoid the others."
"Little buddy?" Mu Liang asked softly.
"Probably...probably." Mino's eyes drifted a little, and he scratched his cheek embarrassingly.
She thought of those people who caught small lizards together, they didn't catch as many small lizards as she did, and they still wanted to snatch her small lizards.
As a mutant, the girl's results can be imagined. Those people were beaten to tears by her, but she robbed them several times.
After that, those people have been avoiding her.
"It doesn't look like a partner." Seeing the girl's performance, Mu Liang understood what was going on.
It can also be seen from this that the life of the girl before was very difficult.
So, he was Mino's first friend.

evening.
Mu Liang and Mino returned to the camp shed.
"I have gained a lot today." Mino squatted by the firepit, happily playing with the little lizard.
A total of 45 small lizards were caught today.
Among them, 23 small lizards were caught by the three-color lizard, and the rest were caught by two people.
In addition to small lizards, three palm-sized mice were also caught.
Mu Liang sharpened his saber and asked, "Have you always eaten small lizards?"
"Yes, once in a while, if you're lucky, you can eat some hare meat." Mino replied without raising his head.
Today, it was really a bumper harvest, and she usually only caught two or three small lizards.
"Are you full?" Mu Liang's hand sharpening the saber paused.
"full?"
Mino tilted his head and thought about it, and said distressedly: "I don't know what is considered full."
How do you know what it's like to be full if you've never been full?
"..." Mu Liang listened to the girl's heart-rending words, and then faced the girl's blank, inquisitive eyes.
Feeling inexplicably irritable, he threw the stone that sharpened the saber.
"What's wrong?" Mino blinked his blue eyes blankly.
"It's okay, I'll go to the camp for a while." Mu Liang put the saber back into the sheath at his waist.
He was going to find out what was going on in the camp, and then spread the word about the bandits' attack.
Well, let's take a break.
"Be careful." Mino warned.
She has to stay to deal with the little lizards, smoke and dry them to make dried meat, so that they can be preserved for a longer period of time.
"Okay." Mu Liang took the backpack, opened the wooden shed door and hid in the shadow of the surrounding wooden sheds.
Now in the evening, it was already dark.
There was no moonlight in the sky.
Such a dark environment is just suitable for Mu Liang's actions.
The air smelled of barbecue, and the cracks in the wooden shed leaked a little bit of fire light.
But it was more quiet, the sound of sleepy breathing coming from some wooden sheds.
After all, if you don’t have enough to eat, then exercise less and sleep more.
Mu Liang learned from the girl that there is a hunting team in the camp, which is responsible for hunting some wild animals in the distance.
For example: hares, dry tortoises, wild dogs and so on.
The food from hunting is distributed to those who help the camp leader; as for the rest of the people, the leader will not take care of it.
To live in the camp is to pay taxes. This is a deal between the leader and the hunting team to protect everyone.
Living alone in the wild is very dangerous, you may be attacked by wolves, or encounter fierce beasts.
But in Mu Liang's view, the most important thing for people in the camp to pay taxes willingly is that the water source is controlled by the leader.
Those who pay taxes can get a share of water, a share of water that will keep people from dying of thirst.
One of the main reasons why Mu Liang came out at night was to prepare more water for the trip the day after tomorrow.
The camp is not big, but it is divided into inner and outer floors.
The inner layer has a wooden and stone fence, which is where the chief and the hunting party live.
The outer layer is for people who pay taxes like girls to live.
Mu Liang easily climbed over the two-meter-high fence, avoiding the patrolling people.
The aroma of barbecue wafting in the air in the inner layer is very strong, and the firewood is also fully burned.
Mu Liang occasionally passed by some wooden houses, and there were reverie sounds coming from inside.
"In such an environment, I am not afraid of getting sick."
Mu Liang complained in his heart, and stuffed the stone back.
The leader's house is in the middle of the camp.
Mu Liang walked around the house and was surprised to find that the house was more than 400 square meters in size.
It's about the size of a basketball court.
"It's really extravagant." Mu Liang sighed.
I also understand what the people who work for the leader in the camp are doing.
Mu Liang picked a remote corner and easily climbed into the leader's house.
He landed silently, there was a burning fire in the room, and the light was not very dark.
"This should be a side room." Mu Liang murmured.
He listened to the discussions coming from the depths of the house, and judged his location.
After observing for a while, Mu Liang found that there were seven or eight maids.
He followed one of the maids holding a clay pot to a room with guards at the door.
Mu Liang quietly stayed in the shadow of the corner, coupled with the ability of 'mimetic color change', he was not afraid of being spotted even a few meters away.
Scanning around, he found that there was not even a single window in this room, and the only entrance was the door.
Not long after, the maid came out with a clay pot full of water, escaped the gatekeeper's mischievous hand, and left in anger.
Mu Liang temporarily remembered the room where the water was placed, and followed the maid again to a bright hall.
There are four people in the hall, who are eating dinner at this time.
The maid put the pot on the table, and instead of filling the people around with water, she caught a hare, cut its throat with a knife, and dripped blood into the pot.
Mu Liang suddenly lost interest in the jar of water, and was about to leave to explore other rooms.
The conversation between the four caught his attention.
"You go down."
The middle-aged man sitting at the head waved his hand to the maid.
He used a clay bowl to hold the blood water directly from the clay pot, and poured it into his mouth.
The maid bent over and stepped out of the hall.
"Boss, do we really want to leave here?"
"As long as we don't water those veggies, we can last for a few more months."
"Watering those vegetables is a waste."
After the maid left, the other three spoke one after another.
Those vegetables are enjoyed by the leader, and they are only shared out occasionally. Of course, the three of them are dissatisfied.
"boom!"
The leader suddenly slapped the table and said coldly: "Don't go, stay here and wait for death?"
He poured a bowl of blood water into his mouth again, and said in a low voice, "The water in that underground well will last for another ten days at most.
If you don't leave by then, everyone will die of thirst. "
"It's too difficult to find a new water source." One of them complained in a low voice.
"We can move to the Moon Lake tribe, they should accept us." Another person said.
The last person agreed: "I agree to go to the Moon Lake tribe, we can join their hunting team."
The leader refused with a gloomy face: "Impossible, I will not agree to go to the Moon Lake tribe."
If a camp leader goes to another tribe, he may not even be a small leader.
He is used to being superior to others, and he is absolutely unwilling to let him be a servant.
"Then where are we going?"
"I don't want to die of thirst."
"If I can't find a water source, I will take my family to the Moon Lake tribe."
The three said dissatisfied.
"I have already sent people to find the water source. If there is no result after five days, we will go to the Yuetan tribe." The leader looked at the three people in front of him, with killing intent in his eyes.
"Okay, then we'll wait another five days."
The three of them ate the barbecue, poured a few bowls of blood water, got up and left.
"..." Mu Liang quietly stayed in the corner, watching the whole process with cold eyes.
He had no idea that the camp was running out of water.
Moreover, there are vegetables, which surprised him.

"Agu." The leader shouted out of the hall.
"Here we come." A very ordinary young man came in.
"How did you do what I ordered you today?" the leader asked sullenly.
"Chief, I have never seen a man with a blood beard."
