He said to the group, "His master, Shen Yu, would like to get to know you."
Shen Zhijie waved his hand impatiently and said, "There's nothing to get to know."
"Let's go our separate ways!"
Seeing that Shen Zhijie was so ungrateful, Nuoyi chased after Xiao Mu in front of him and said, "Sir, our master's surname is Shen, from the Shen family of Haizhou."
"I don't know if you've heard of it."
Xiao Mu continued walking without stopping. Shen Zhijie quickly stepped forward, his gaze pausing slightly: "The Shen family, it can't be the Shen family of the four great families, can it!"
Nuoyi's arrogant tone couldn't help but become smug, "It's this Shen family."
Shen Zhijie's lips curled up slightly, and he clicked his tongue lightly. "Then why did you come to us?"
Nuoyi looked at Shen Zhijie in front of him and had a strange feeling that he didn't take the Shen family seriously at all, but he still smiled and said, "Shall we become friends?"
Shen Zhijie didn't even glance at Nuoyi before walking away, replying, "I don't like making friends."
Nuoyi was very displeased with Shen Zhijie's tone. He looked coldly in the direction Shen Zhijie had left, a vicious smile appearing on his lips. Since they can't be used by us, then they can only be discarded.
When they were still some distance from Shen Yu's RV, Jiang Yao took the RV out of her spatial storage, and Xiao Mu and Shen Zhijie returned to the vehicle to wash themselves clean.
After a quick lunch, Xiao Mu started the car and drove in the direction Zhu Hezheng and the others had left.
Along the way, with frequent stops and starts, Shen Yu's convoy has continued to grow, and now has nearly a hundred people working for him.
Everyone's goal was to go to Haizhou.
When they stopped to rest, they were in a mountainous area. Nuoyi acted like a commander-in-chief, guiding everyone to find useful resources for Shen Yu.
Just as Jiang Yao and the others had fallen asleep at night, a scraping sound came from the roof of the RV. They went to the sunroof of the RV and looked up. Wow! Jiang Yao looked at Shen Zhijie and pointed to the huge object on the roof.
"This is the giant snake you encountered that night."
Shen Zhijie narrowed his long eyes and stared at the large snake on the roof of the car, saying, "This isn't even the biggest one." After saying that, he began to look around.
Xiao Mu pointed to an open space in the distance and said slowly, "No need to look anymore, it's over there."
Jiang Yao was somewhat taken aback upon seeing this; was this snake about to become an immortal?
Shen Yu's convoy was soon surrounded by snakes. Seeing that everyone was about to escape, Nuo Yi began to use the promise of increasing the stakes as bait to get these refugees to work for him.
But even with a large number of refugees, they can't withstand the ruthless ones in the snake swarm.
Soon, the large snake on the roof of the car crawled down. Jiang Yao prepared to start the car and move away from the snake swarm. As if remembering Shen Zhijie and Xiao Mu, the giant snake in the distance commanded the snake swarm to attack their car.
Looking at the scene before her, Jiang Yao felt that Shen Zhijie and Xiao Mu were hiding something from her in the ruins.
Otherwise, why would the giant snake start commanding other snakes to attack them the moment they moved?
Seeing the giant snake had chased him all the way here, Shen Zhijie glanced at Xiao Mu and smiled bitterly, somewhat regretting his actions.
Xiao Mu's expression darkened slightly, and he thought to himself, "Why did that idiot Shen Zhijie hide in the snake pit that night?"
Shen Zhijie, however, was wondering if this creature would have stayed here if he hadn't gone into the snake's nest and broken its eggs that night.
It's too late to say anything now, let's think of a way to get out of here!
Xiao Mu poured the spare gasoline from the car into different bottles, used gauze to make a starter at the bottle opening, and treated most of the oil cans in a certain way.
Jiang Yao was in charge of driving, while Xiao Mu opened the car door and, together with Shen Zhijie, threw the prepared gasoline bottles into the snake pile. They then shot the gasoline bottles to shatter them, intending to use fire to drive the snakes away.
Seeing that Xiao Mu and the others' car was starting to leave, Shen Yu shouted, "Quick, quick, the car in front is moving!"
"Follow Jiang Yao and the others in their car."
Nuoyi pulled Nuofan out of the driver's seat and got in to drive himself.
When the refugees saw that Shen Yu was trying to drive away and abandon them, they angrily hit the RV with the tools in their hands.
As the fire intensified, the snakes began to crawl deeper into the fire.
Shen Yu's car had already driven far away. Jiang Yao stopped the car, got out, picked out a few dead snakes, skinned them, and then started a fire to roast them.
Upon seeing Jiang Yao roasting the snake, Shen Zhijie asked with some concern, "Could this be poisonous?"
Jiang Yao looked at Shen Zhijie with a serious expression. "I used non-toxic fumigation, don't worry!"
"I can tell whether a snake is poisonous or not."
Shen Zhijie was amazed by Jiang Yao's actions.
Seeing the aroma of snake meat emanating from the fire, the refugees stopped chasing Shen Yu's car and began to learn Jiang Yao's snake-roasting technique.
After driving for two consecutive days, the group stopped at a fork in the road near the military region, switched to a regular modified jeep, and then drove towards the military region.
He Rui, an old acquaintance of Xiao Mu and Shen Zhijie, was on duty outside the base today. After a simple registration, the group drove their car to the designated parking area.
He Rui gave a brief introduction to the group: "Everyone at the base now has to work, and we will allocate corresponding supplies or points based on each person's work ability."
"The housing conditions are also average. It's either a large dormitory, a single room, or a room for one person. You have to hand over a certain amount of supplies before you can live in a room for one person."
"If you have any supplies, you can go to the supplies exchange point to get points for daily necessities. You can use the points to rent a house or buy daily necessities."
He Rui raised an eyebrow at Shen Zhijie and Xiao Mu and said, "How about it? Should we arrange a car now to take you back to Haizhou?"
Shen Zhijie put his right hand on He Rui's shoulder and joked, "What, you look down on me?"
"Don't worry! Haizhou will return sooner or later, but not now."
The group arrived at the exchange counter, where Jiang Yao took out the cigarettes, alcohol, and smoked snake meat she had prepared in advance to exchange for points.
He Rui was slightly taken aback when he saw the smoked snake meat. He had seen smoked snake meat before, but this was the first time he had seen so much of it.
After the group had changed their things, He Rui asked in a low voice, "Where did you get this smoked snake meat? How come there's so much of it? Did you wipe out the entire snake population?"
Jiang Yao smiled mysteriously at He Rui and said, "If you want to make this smoked snake meat, I can lend you Shen Zhijie, but you'll have to pay for it out of company funds."
"I can't let myself be taken advantage of."
He Rui thought about it and it didn't seem like a bad idea. Once they had smoked snake meat, they would have everything, so he agreed to Jiang Yao's suggestion.
Shen Zhijie could hardly believe what Jiang Yao was saying. Was she using him to earn a living?
This is simply an exploitation of human rights. Is there no justice left? Not only did he hand over all his supplies to Jiang Yao, but now he has to risk his life for her.
Just as Shen Zhijie was thinking of this, Jiang Yao turned her head and whispered to him, "I won't let you work for nothing. You'll get a share of the supplies we earn."
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhijie's eyes lit up instantly. It seemed that Jiang Yao was quite loyal. She was attracting business, and he was putting in the effort. It didn't seem like a bad deal!
He coughed lightly and said, feigning reluctance, "That's more like it."
