Chapter 439 The Legend of the Fountain of Youth (Large Chapter)(1/2)

He Ao glanced at the middle-aged man and raised his hand to signal to wait.

Then he walked into the back room and woke up Ai Ni from her sleep.

Aini looked at her father's face and was a little confused at first. She originally wanted to be coquettish and stay in bed for a while, but when she saw the tents around her, she gradually remembered what happened yesterday.

Then she jumped up from the bed with a start.

The place was different, and she could no longer stay in bed peacefully.

There were no toiletries here. The little girl simply wiped her face, tied her messy and blown-out hair into a ponytail, and followed He Ao out.

The middle-aged man has been waiting quietly outside.

He also knew that He Ao did not completely trust them, which was a normal thing in the wilderness. If He Ao was not vigilant at all, he would instead doubt whether He Ao was a liar.

Then He Ao followed him all the way to the depths of the camp. When they passed by, the surrounding wilderness wanderers looked at them curiously.

The houses that these wilderness wanderers live in are all similar, basically wooden houses with the same shape.

However, there is one wooden house that is quite special. It is located in the center of the entire camp. It covers an area equivalent to five or six small wooden houses. It is roughly round in shape. The outermost wood has been painted with some simple white paint, which makes it look a bit...

Magnificent and solemn, it is the most attractive building in the entire camp.

However, the middle-aged man did not bring He Ao into this wooden house. Instead, he brought He Ao to the innermost part of the camp, in front of a simple wooden house leaning against the cliff.

The door of the wooden house was ajar, as if waiting for guests.

The middle-aged man did not open the door, but stood at the door and made an inviting gesture to He Ao.

He Ao glanced at the ajar door in front of him. Through the faint crack in the door, he could see that the light inside the door was relatively dim.

He gently stretched out his hand, pressed it on the wooden door, and pushed the door open.

The decoration in the wooden house is very simple, with a few small wooden chairs and a simple long wooden table. Behind the wooden table sits an old man with half-white beard and hair and a face full of wrinkles.

The old man half-closed his eyes and put his hands on his legs, seeming to have fallen into a deep sleep.

The middle-aged man seemed to be used to this situation. He raised his hand to signal He Ao to come in. Then he stood at the door, turned around and looked outside.

Aini looked around with some confusion, but she didn't make a sound and just stood quietly behind He Ao.

He Ao raised his legs, crossed the door, and walked into the wooden house.

Aini also followed him in.

squeak——

The middle-aged man behind reached out and closed the wooden door.

The old man sitting at the end slowly opened his eyes.

"Hello, guest from afar, please take a seat."

His voice was very old, as if he was about to die, and his speaking speed was also very slow, with the characteristic twilight atmosphere of an old man.

"Hello."

He Ao nodded and sat on the chair.

Aini sat behind him.

"I heard your story, guest. It's really amazing, but I really can't think of anything here that could attract you."

The old man spoke very slowly, but enunciated every word clearly.

In fact, when you say this sentence, it has the meaning of chasing away guests.

For the Wilderness Wanderer family, admitting unknown people is a very dangerous thing.

The Andavi family was extremely benevolent in allowing He Ao to rest for a night. Those who know the rules should prepare to leave at this time.

Of course, they don't have to leave immediately. Most of the powerful people who arrive unexpectedly can choose to leave descendants in the family. This is also one of the ways for the Wilderness Wanderer family to absorb excellent foreign genes.

However, He Ao didn't really come here just to rest for a night. He raised his head, looked at the old man, and asked slowly, "I heard that the Andavi family guards a legend about the Fountain of Youth."

"That's just a simple legend," the old man said slowly. "Many wilderness wanderers in this wilderness know it. If the guest wants to hear it, I can tell it to you."

"Appreciate further details."

He Ao straightened up and pretended to listen attentively.

"Legend has it that a long time ago, before a city was built in this wilderness, a huge earthquake occurred. The earthquake opened a crack, and milky white liquid spewed out from the crack, forming

A spring of water."

The old man slowly narrated, "At first, people around didn't know what these springs were. At that time, people thought it was blood flowing from the earth, and because of its pure white shape, they thought it was related to the sky, so they thought it was

the blood of sky and earth,

"This spring has been attracting living things around it since its birth. People living around the spring have a particularly long life span, so people began to believe that it has the ability to make people immortal. The reputation of the Fountain of Youth is

Gradually word spread, and this became the legend of the Fountain of Youth.”

“Then can this fountain of youth really lead to immortality?”

He Ao asked softly.

The old man raised his wrinkled eyelids, glanced at He Ao, and then said slowly, "Yes."

"Um?"

He Ao stared at him.

He heard a certain certainty in the old man's tone.

"In the legend passed down from generation to generation, drinking from the Fountain of Youth can make people immortal," the old man said slowly, "It's just immortality, not necessarily humans."

"It doesn't have to be a human being?"

"This is our legend. I don't know how to explain this sentence."

The old man said slowly, "If the guests like our family, they can hang out in the camp for a while."

After that, he closed his eyes again and stopped talking.

squeak——

The wooden door was pushed open again, and a middle-aged man stood at the door, staring at He Ao and Aini who were sitting inside, "Mr. Pate, may I take you around the stockade?"

This wooden house is not soundproof, and the middle-aged people outside should have heard their conversation clearly.

"good."

He Ao glanced at the old man and stood up without delay.

He had a hunch that this old man must know more about the Fountain of Youth. Now that the other party didn't tell him, it was just that he didn't have anything to impress him.

If you want to know what can impress the other person, you must first understand the other person's needs.

The middle-aged man was a little surprised to see him being so cooperative, but he still took He Ao from the wooden house and started to visit.

He Ao walked quietly beside the middle-aged man and listened to his introduction.

This middle-aged man should be a D-class transcendent. The Andavi family can safely let He Ao in, probably because they feel confident that they can control He Ao.

After all, judging from the young man's description, He Ao was just a sharpshooter.

A sharpshooter without a powerful sniper rifle is powerless when facing extraordinary beings at close range.

After the young man was taken away, he should have been interrogated by One Night Love, and he most likely told everything he could.

However, judging from the self-confidence of the middle-aged people, there should be other hiding methods in this camp. Even if He Ao hides his strength, they can deal with it confidently.

He Ao followed the middle-aged man's steps and walked forward.

This camp is not big, but the sparrow has all the internal organs even though it is small.

The Andavi family has formed a relatively clear division of labor, with professional hunters, professional butchers, and professional bakers.

The entire family does not just rely on manual operation. He Ao saw many assembly line machines produced in the fortress city.

The Andavi family dismantled the automated machinery on these large assembly lines, retaining only the portable parts, and then replaced those conveyor belts and machinery with manpower, successfully maintaining the normal operation of some basic factories such as slaughterhouses and garment factories.

Automation is transformed into semi-automation, but the ability to resist risks is increased.

The difficulty here lies in how to train a group of skilled workers who can skillfully operate machinery.

Ronald's camp had a similar factory in the past, but they tried their best to ensure an automated process and moved the entire production line out of the city.

Because it is difficult for the wilderness wanderer camp to gather a large number of skilled workers with basic knowledge, and let the wilderness wanderers control the machinery, it is better to let them fight against the black bears.

If you want to have quality workers, you must have quality education.

There must be an established school in this camp.

Sure enough, after walking a few steps, He Aojian saw the class scene.

The teacher is teaching students in a huge tent. Many of these large tents are put together to form a "school". Children of different ages sit in different tents.

This is already a systematic education.

This camp looks like a small city.

As He Ao walked through the school, some young and beautiful girls aged sixteen or seventeen were released by their teachers and followed He Ao.
