There was a rustling sound in the grass not far away.
With the sound of rustling, a large number of large, green mutated mantises crawled out of the grass in front of them like a group of high-spirited troops.
The afterglow of the setting sun reflected a strange light on their green wings.
Exuding a strong smell of blood, they kept crawling out of the grass on one side. The dense green color passed through the road where the carriage was located in an orderly manner, and slowly crawled towards the grass on the opposite side.
among.
Such a huge army of mutated mantises is really spectacular!
No one can tell exactly how many mutated mantises there are in front of them. Maybe tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, who knows?
At this time, Zhang Zhe and the other two people sitting in the carriage were so shocked that they didn't even dare to take a breath when they saw what was happening in front of them.
Although the three of them each ate a white corpse mushroom that can eliminate body odor before setting off. As long as they sat on the carriage and did not move, the large mutated mantis army not far in front of them would not be affected at all.
You will find the presence of three people.
But how can it be possible to see so many mutated mantises without making people feel frightened?
The many mutated giant mantises in front of them were crawling out of the grass like a tide and heading towards the grass on the opposite side. But for Zhang Zhe and the other two people on the carriage, at this moment, everything in the world was in infinite chaos.
among.
The black curtain fell, and there were no other colors in front of me. Only the green patch of green in front of me kept repeating in front of my eyes. All the sounds stopped abruptly, and there were only the rustling in the black curtain, and the sound of the three people's heartbeats in each other's ears.
surround.
I don’t know how long it took, but darkness fell, the grass returned to silence, the strong smell of blood disappeared, and a crescent moon hung on the treetops.
The three people who woke up from the chaos did not say a word to each other. They just quietly urged the black horse pulling the carriage to move forward slowly with four hooves.
Maybe it was the mutated mantis army just now that really had a big impact on the three of them.
Although they did not communicate with each other, at the moment when the carriage moved, they made a tacit understanding and let the black horse pulling the carriage carry the goods and the three people towards City L.
At this moment, no one talked about how to gain wealth through risk. No one suggested where to find a place to stay. No one suggested how to think about how to get off the horse.
At this time, the three people were all hoping that the black horse pulling the carriage could quickly take the three of them away from this ghost place.
In the early morning, the sky in the east just turned a touch of fish belly white.
Holding a long whip, Xiao Fu drove a carriage that had been driving all night and arrived at a strange village. Then she stopped the carriage in front of a dilapidated courtyard.
After turning her head and looking at Xiao Wu, who was sleeping soundly in Zhang Zhe's arms, Xiao Fu whispered to Zhang Zhe, who was holding the sleeping Xiao Wu in one arm and carrying a long knife in the other.
"Brother Zha, we should be within the area of City L now."
"After walking all night, the black horse pulling the cart must be exhausted. Let's rest here first and set off at noon tomorrow, right?"
After hearing Xiaofu's words, Zhang Zhe turned to look at the courtyard where the carriage was parked, and said calmly to Xiaofu who was sitting beside him.
"Xiao Fu, you have also been driving a carriage all night."
"You keep Xiao Wu resting on the carriage while I go into the yard to take a look."
As soon as Zhang Zhe finished speaking, Xiao Wu, who was sleeping soundly in Zhang Zhe's arms, immediately sat up straight, looked sleepy, and yawned.
"Ah...ha! You don't need to go, Brother Zha. I'll go!"
"I've been sleeping all the way, and it's time to stretch my hands and feet. I don't feel anything unusual here. You can wait for me outside!"
After saying this, Xiao Wu, who was sitting between the two of them, stood up and jumped out of the carriage from Zhang Zhe's side.
Xiaowu entered the courtyard and walked out of the courtyard again not long after.
After Xiao Wu investigated that the courtyard was very safe, Zhang Zhe and Xiao Fu drove the carriage into the courtyard. They unloaded the black horse that had been pulling the carriage all night, tied it with a rein to the side of the carriage, and let the black horse roam in the courtyard.
Eating weeds.
In the living room, after lighting a warm bonfire on a dusty sofa, the three of them spread three blankets next to the bonfire and lay down beside the bonfire to sleep.
In the morning, Zhang Zhe, who was sleeping soundly on the blanket, was awakened by Xiao Fu speaking softly to Xiao Wu.
"Xiao Wu, you should pay more attention next time!"
"A set of leather armor costs three hundred point cards on the black market, which is equivalent to fifty cans of the canned meat you have. A rifle costs one hundred and twenty point cards on the black market, which is equivalent to twenty cans of meat."
"Say it yourself, how many points cards did you cost us yesterday? How many cans of meat did you lose yourself? So, for our point cards, for the canned meat you like..."
When Zhang Zhe woke up, he saw Xiaofu lying on the blanket beside him, holding a pencil in one hand and recording something in a small notebook in front of him. At the same time, he looked at Xiaofu who was lying next to him and eating canned meat in his hand.
, giving lectures on the value of black market items.
Before Xiao Fu could finish her words, Zhang Zhe sat up from the blanket, looked at the two girls lying aside, and asked calmly.
"What are you two doing?"
After hearing what Zhang Zhe said, Xiaofu, who was lying aside, immediately raised her head and looked at Zhang Zhe and said happily.
"Brother Zha, the two of us are making material records."
"Xiao Wu and I just made a statistics on the supplies we picked up yesterday. There are a total of eight sabers, thirteen rifles, three pistols, more than three hundred cans of meat, and hundreds of compressed biscuits."
"Bringing all these things to the black market at the L city base will probably allow us to exchange for more than 3,000 points cards. We really gained wealth this time and made a lot of money!"
"I need to make a detailed calculation on how many points cards we can earn this time!"
As soon as Xiao Fu finished speaking, Xiao Wu, who was lying next to Xiao Fu, got up from Xiao Fu. He sat next to Zhang Zhe and reached out to grab a piece of meat from the half-eaten can of meat and handed it to her.
He came to Zhang Zhe's mouth and said with a smile to Zhang Zhe.
"Brother Zha, Xiaofu just told me that the equipment on humans can be exchanged for delicious food!"
"In the future, I will definitely pay attention and never destroy their equipment at will. I promise that I will only use my claws to scratch their heads."
"You must be hungry, right? Come on, I'll feed you!"
Zhang Zhe, who had experience in black market exchange, opened his mouth to eat the piece of meat in Xiao Wu's hand, then looked at Xiao Fu who was lying on the blanket beside him and continued to calculate in a notebook, with a smile on his face.
Said calmly.
"Xiaofu, don't forget it. Do you understand inflation?"
"When trading in a place like the black market, if you bring too many of the same items, they will definitely find a way to lower your price!"
"Besides, I have never thought about taking all the supplies we obtained yesterday into the black market and exchanging them for some kind of point cards."
After hearing what Zhang Zhe said, Xiao Fu, who was lying on the blanket and doing calculations in a small book, was stunned.
Then he raised his little head, looked at Zhang Zhe aside, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Brother Zha, if you don't replace those things, what's the use of keeping them?"
Zhang Zhe, who was chewing a piece of canned meat from Xiao Wu next to him, looked at the puzzled Xiao Fu and said with a strange smile on his face after swallowing the food in his mouth.
"Silly girl, use your little brain and think about it, what does your sister Xi want to turn our inn into?"
"There are a total of eleven people in our inn, including Xiao Yi and Xiao Wu. But how many guns are there in our inn? Only the two guns that your sister Xi brought back after killing Dong Bin."
"With just those two guns, what can we use to protect our inn in the future? Besides, in this apocalyptic world, who would think that they don't have enough food in their hands?"
"We want to make our station bigger and stronger in this apocalyptic world. First, we need our guns to be strong enough, and second, we need to have enough food in our hands. If you don't have hard goods in your hands, those score cards
, it’s just a pile of waste paper. Do you understand, silly girl?”
After saying these words, Zhang Zhe immediately stood up and walked towards the yard, while speaking calmly to Xiao Fu, who was still lying on the blanket with a vague expression.
"Leave three rifles for us to use on the road. Find a place to hide the rest. We will come back to get them and bring them back to the inn for everyone to use."
"The same goes for the food. Leave three bags for you to take to the black market to exchange for some daily necessities for everyone in the inn. Hide the rest and take them back when we come back."
"You take Xiao Wu to pack up the things here first, and I'll go bring in the six boxes of bullets we lost last night. After you hide these things, we'll continue on our way."
Xiaofu is indeed a good at hiding things.
After hiding all the things Zhang Zhe asked her to hide in the earthen kang in the room on the side of the living room, this girl actually used her wolf howl to attract a large group of black-haired werewolf zombies into the courtyard.
The three of them came to guard the materials hidden in this courtyard.
After driving the carriage out of the village, Zhang Zhe, who was proficient in various firearms, sat in the middle and taught the two girls Xiao Wu and Xiao Fu sitting next to him how to correctly operate the guns in their hands.
That rifle.
While teaching the two girls around him how to use guns correctly, Zhang Zhe described his own plans for the future of the station to Xiaofu and Xiaowu.
"Let me tell you two, I am quite experienced in base management!"
"Give me some time, and I promise to create a safe and comfortable base for you. We have a special environment and special treatment. We are not under the jurisdiction of the military in City L..."
Before Zhang Zhe could finish his words, Xiaofu, who was sitting on the left side of Zhang Zhe, holding a rifle and practicing aerial aim, spoke coldly.
"Brother Zha, please do it soon!"
"With your base management experience, what can you boast about? Don't think I don't know, Sister Xi told me all about it. The nursing home you once managed was the result of your ex-wife being picked up later!"
"If it weren't for your bad sister who has been protecting you, you would probably have been killed in that nursing home by four old men and an old aunt!"
Before hearing Xiaofu's words, Zhang Zhe, who was speechless, retorted.
Sitting on the right side of Zhang Zhe, Xiao Wu repeatedly practiced loading the magazine with the rifle in his hand and pulling the bolt, and then he spoke calmly.
"I also heard Xiao Xi say this!"
"But Xiao Xi also said that the humans in that nursing home still trust Brother Zha!"
As soon as Xiao Wu finished speaking, Zhang Zhe, who was speechless, said to Xiao Fu and Xiao Wu next to him, pretending to be a little angry.
"I say you two, can you respect me? I am sharing my grand plan with you. What are you making trouble with me?"
"Let the past things pass, and don't mention them again. It seems that you know it, right? Don't make trouble with me anymore, and listen to my great plan honestly!"
After saying this, Zhang Zhe thought about the words in his brain again, and then continued to speak to the two people beside him.
"I'm telling you, let's take advantage of the convenience of our inn and turn our inn into a black market in City Z."
"In this apocalyptic world, if you always go to the black market of other bases to exchange supplies and have the prices of supplies squeezed by other black markets, what future can you have?"
"If we want to live well in this apocalyptic world, we must find a way to let others come to our inn to conduct transactions. Let us control the transaction prices of various materials ourselves...
..”
Before Zhang Zhe, who had a somewhat arrogant expression, finished speaking, Xiao Fu, who was holding a rifle in her left hand, spoke coldly.
"Brother Zha, Sister Xi taught us a lesson."
"For you, we can't just listen to what you said, we have to see what you actually did. Only in this way can we guarantee that you did not deceive us!"
As soon as Xiao Fu finished speaking, Xiao Wu, who was sitting on the right side of Zhang Zhe, picked up the rifle in his hand and took aim from the air, and immediately spoke in agreement.
"Yes, yes, Xiaoxi also said this to me!"
