Chapter 203 Inquiring for Information

After entering from the entrance, the light inside suddenly became very dim.

The mutated plants around were very dense, with almost no gaps. Only a few broken plant stems showed that someone had been here not long ago.

Jiang Zhan squatted in front of Qiao Yu and motioned for her to lie on his back and let him carry her.

Cheng Sinian scratched his brow and looked at Luo Zhenzhen with some embarrassment.

Although he also wanted to carry Luo Zhenzhen away, his special ability... could easily cause a fire here.

Seeing Cheng Sinian staring at her with an embarrassed look on her face, Luo Zhenzhen suddenly had a look of sudden realization on her face. Then she squatted down with her back to Cheng Sinian, raised her arms slightly behind her, and motioned Cheng Sinian to come up.

“???” Cheng Sinian’s mouth twitched.

That's not what he meant!

Luo Zhenzhen waited for a while, but didn't feel Cheng Sinian coming up. She couldn't help but turn her head back in confusion, her expression asking, "What's wrong? Aren't you coming up?"

The corners of Cheng Sinian's mouth couldn't help but twitch twice.

Seeing this, Qiao Yu on the side burst out laughing. Even Jiang Zhan raised his lips slightly and looked at Cheng Sinian with a playful look.

It's as if to say: Tsk. You still have to let your wife carry you on her back, how pathetic!

Cheng Sinian gritted his teeth and thought about it again and again, but finally, urged by Luo Zhenzhen's eyes, he lay down.

Cheng Sinian was tall and strong, and he lay on the back of Luo Zhenzhen, who was a head shorter than him. It looked like he was wrapping Luo Zhenzhen in his arms.

But now is not the time to care about face. His special ability could be used just now when there was a lot of space outside, but looking at the current density of plants, his ability is definitely not usable. Even the slightest spark will burn a large area.

But if he didn't use his superpowers, he wouldn't be able to catch up with Qiao Yu and the others...

I can only go ahead with it.

Humph, what's the point of talking about face? Even his wife doesn't dislike him!

And his stomach has been feeling bad lately, so he has to eat some soft food!

After Cheng Sinian had prepared himself mentally, he no longer felt ashamed. Instead, he inexplicably felt a sense of pride.

And Luo Zhenzhen never felt that there was anything wrong with her actions from beginning to end.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhan and Qiao Yu stopped mocking Cheng Sinian. Seeing that both of them were ready, Jiang Zhan took a step and rushed into the dense forest first.

The surging wind blew away the giant plants blocking the way ahead, and Jiang Zhan rushed past in the wind with Qiao Yu on his back.

Luo Zhenzhen followed closely behind, following the path opened up by Jiang Zhan. Wherever the lightning reached, that was Luo Zhenzhen's destination.

The four of them walked in the dense forest for nearly fifteen minutes before finally arriving at a relatively bright and open open space.

Jiang Zhan stopped and put Qiao Yu down. Seeing this, Luo Zhenzhen also put Cheng Sinian down.

"About 400 meters ahead." Jiang Zhan reminded in a low voice, "There are many people, it should be the territory of the dependents."

"Yeah." Qiao Yu nodded, "Let's go over there."

Cheng Sinian took a step closer and lowered his voice, "Brother Zhan, have you sensed the plant mutants?"

"Not yet." Jiang Zhan shook his head. "This place is not small. I can only sense people at the border."

"Then let's go in first." Qiao Yu pulled Jiang Zhan's hand, "No rush. We'll look for it slowly."

The four of them continued forward for a while, until the light in front of them began to dim again, and then they saw the "border" that Jiang Zhan had just mentioned.

Surprisingly, there are guardrails here too.

It just doesn't have steel doors or guards, and looks like a low-end version of the survivor base defense system.

"It looks pretty good." Cheng Sinian rubbed his nose, a hint of surprise flashing across his face. "With this configuration, it can be considered a small survivor base, right?"

"Normal." Qiao Yu raised an eyebrow. "If you want to survive in this dense forest, you must have some defensive measures. Let's go in and take a look."

There are five or six rows of sharp steel forks placed in an orderly manner in front of the gate. Humans can easily bypass them. It seems that they are used to defend against alien species.

The four men walked around the steel fork and entered the gate, where they found a simple iron house on the left side of the gate.

There were several men in the house sitting together playing cards. When they heard someone come in, they looked up casually.

But when they saw the faces of Qiao Yu and the others, the men's eyes lit up obviously. After exchanging glances, two men, one tall and one short, soon came out.

The tall man was younger, looking about thirty, while the shorter man looked older, perhaps in his forties.

"You all look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here?" The tall man asked first after scanning the four people's faces.

Cheng Sinian took two steps forward, seemingly inadvertently blocking the view of the two people behind him, then he stretched out his hand and replied with a smile: "Yes, what are your names, brothers?"

"Just call me Mingzi." The tall man shook Cheng Sinian's hand and raised his chin towards the short man beside him. "This is Old Han."

"Oh, it's Brother Ming and Brother Han." Cheng Sinian said, and shook hands with the short man named "Old Han".

"Judging from your appearance, you are here to look for the black market, right?" Old Han shook hands with Cheng Sinian with a very friendly smile.

"Oh, you can see that?" Cheng Sinian raised his eyebrows and looked surprised.

"We've been here for almost two months, after all. We still have some good sense," Mingzi continued, smiling slightly, a hint of pride in her tone. "What do you want to buy? Maybe we can even give you some directions."

"Hmm?" Cheng Sinian frowned slightly. "From what you're saying... there's more than one black market?"

"Of course there's more than one." Mingzi turned sideways and raised her chin towards the distance. "See that sign? That's the South Black Market."

After saying that, Mingzi turned back, frowning, "You guys just came here without asking anything."

Cheng Sinian scratched his head sheepishly. "Indeed, Brother Ming. We haven't asked much about it. How about you and Brother Han please take the trouble and tell us more?"

Mingzi and Lao Han looked at each other when they heard this, and a gleam of light suddenly flashed in their eyes.

"Okay. It's fate that we met, so let me tell you about it."

Mingzi had an expression that said, "Who told us to be righteous?" and her voice was raised a lot.

Old Han nodded and asked politely, "Then let me ask you all, are you looking to buy something? Or are you just curious and want to see the excitement?"

Cheng Sinian's mind flickered when he heard this, and a look of "you know what I mean" suddenly appeared on his face. "You two, we heard that you can buy anything on this black market, even people."

"I wonder...how do I buy it?"
