48: Haino beast's hide

The person who arrived was a gentle woman with a simple, elegant complexion, wearing a white cheongsam, the form-fitting silk fabric perfectly outlining her slender and attractive figure.

Her dark hair was casually coiled at the back of her head, secured by a wooden hairpin.

Several strands of hair fell loose from the bun, giving her an air of languidness.

"Are you the one who plays the xiao?" Luo Chen asked, looking at the woman whose slender waist swayed gently as she walked, uncertainly.

"I didn't expect to be so honored as to leave an impression on the Train Conductor's heart."

The woman stopped not far from Luo Chen, smiling sweetly, bowed slightly, and introduced herself:

"This humble one, Yin Jianjia, greets Train Conductor Luo."

"What are you doing here? Don't you have a task?" Luo Chen frowned slightly; he didn't like people who slacked off at work.

"Sister Yujun said that the planting side doesn't need people for now, and told us to pack our luggage and rest first," Yin Jianjia quickly explained, sensing Luo Chen's misunderstanding.

After a pause, she continued: "I saw that the Train Conductor was bored alone, so I thought I'd come over and perform some of my talents to help the Train Conductor relax."

Luo Chen nodded in agreement.

There weren't many forms of entertainment on the Train; besides checking the chat room, it was playing poker, which was indeed a bit boring. Listening to music to cultivate one's temperament might be better.

"Then begin!"

Upon hearing this, Yin Jianjia smoothed the cheongsam over her hips and knelt before Luo Chen.

Just then, a message popped up on his watch.

Luo Chen opened it and found it was from Ran Feng. The content stated that he had found something, but had not seen the person Luo Chen mentioned.

He was slightly stunned, a vague sense of unease stirring in his heart.

Could it be that the Abu couple had died?

He hesitated whether to tell Noya.

Yin Jianjia sensed Luo Chen's movement, stopped, worried about disturbing him.

Luo Chen hastily told her to continue, then sent a message to Ran Feng asking for specific details: "Tell me the exact situation you saw!"

...Meanwhile, on another Train with red, green, and white colors.

Ran Feng saw Luo Chen's message and quickly asked Xiao Sheng to type a reply for him, while he stood by and dictated the content to be replied.

His broken right hand was now bandaged.

Standing beside them was a middle-aged couple.

If Luo Chen were here, he would surely realize that the man in this couple was Jiang Zhi, with whom he had previously traded.

The middle-aged beautiful woman beside him was his wife, who had become a puppet.

"Eh? Isn't this Brother Luo Chen?" Jiang Zhi exclaimed, looking at the avatar on the screen.

"Uncle Jiang, you know Luo Chen too?" Ran Feng was equally surprised.

Because Uncle Jiang Zhi had saved his life, he had asked to integrate into Jiang Zhi's Train. He hadn't expected Uncle Jiang Zhi to also know Luo Chen.

Jiang Zhi nodded, gently looking at his wife beside him, and explained: "He's a good person. If it weren't for his help, your aunt and I might never have seen each other again."

Although Luo Chen might not have given him anything for free, in such an environment, a stranger was still willing to give him trust, which deeply moved him.

Therefore, he also credited this to Luo Chen... Luo Chen had not recorded the Train numbers of Jiang Zhi and Ran Feng, so he didn't realize that Ran Feng's Train number had already become Jiang Zhi's.

At this moment, he was looking at the message from Ran Feng on the light screen:

"I found an empty snow house at the time. There was nothing inside, only an animal skin with writing I didn't recognize.

However, I still checked the condition of the snow house. It was quite messy, with signs of life, so the original owners might have left in a hurry due to some circumstances.

I've already sent you the animal skin."

After reading the message, an animal skin appeared in his hand.

The material was instantly recognizable as Haino Beast skin, meaning this item was real and very likely came from the Abu couple.

He opened it; the writing on it was sparse, all in Newt tribal script.

Luo Chen had coincidentally learned it using the language core, so he quickly finished reading it.

It turned out that not long after Luo Chen and his group left, the world barrier disappeared.

The Abu couple successfully returned to their tribe, and there, they received a secret from the shaman.

It turned out they were direct descendants of the god of hunting, Hart, and now the god of hunting, Hart, needed them to complete a task, which was why they left.

Putting down the animal skin, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Closing the light screen... Lunchtime.

Yin Jianjia walked out of the cockpit with faltering steps, supported by Luo Chen, feeling her jade legs weak.

Luo Wan Ning's second carriage (numbered 1-2) had been cleaned and set with five or six exquisite dining tables, each capable of seating over ten people.

Many dishes were already laid out, and their colors indicated they were all excellent, even reaching the level of a star chef.

All the women stood by, waiting for Luo Chen, but when they saw Yin Jianjia being supported by Luo Chen, a knowing smile appeared on their faces.

After seating Yin Jianjia, Luo Chen sat beside her and addressed the standing women:

"All of you, please sit. Don't be so reserved. As long as you don't cause trouble or harm the Train's interests, I'm quite easy to talk to."

To pacify external threats, one must first stabilize internal affairs. In the future, it might always be people who know each other well, so there's no need to be too distant. They just need to know that on this Train, they listen to him.

Only when everyone works together with one heart and one mind, striving towards a common goal, can the Train move forward steadily.

In this atmosphere, even if the number of people increases in the future, the faction will not experience major upheavals.

Currently, he must lay a solid foundation. As his strength increases and his influence grows, he can then be unrestrained.

If the initial core team isn't firmly established, he would not only have to guard against outsiders but also against his own people, which sounds exhausting.
