“The Blood Servant has been following us all the way, and only made his move now. It’s possible that the Blood Pact Master is nearby.”
The group looked at each other in bewilderment.
It seems they'll be staying in this sinful place for a while longer.
"Both of them should have received immediate treatment with blocking agents and intravenous antiviral drugs in the early stages of the viral infection."
Xu Yi took off his gloves and cleaned them carefully. "The medical conditions here are not good enough. We need to send them back to K3 base first."
Lu Sheng and her group quickly contacted Xiao Guozheng via radio.
As it happened, Xiao Guozheng was also very interested in the research of the Ebola virus, and immediately communicated and negotiated with the K3 base.
The next morning, the K3 base's vehicle arrived at the hotel.
It's still the same lesbian pairing of Ma Dongmei and Lin Xiaobao, plus Lü Song and the six little ones.
Worried that Li Song and Xiao Zhu might run into trouble on the way, the task of escorting them back to the base was handed over to Lü Song and his team, while Ma Dongmei and Lin Xiaobao stayed behind to help Lu Sheng and the others.
"Are meat and rice sold on the black market? What are the approximate prices?"
After enjoying a sumptuous breakfast with Lu Sheng and the others, Ma Dongmei wiped her mouth, still feeling unsatisfied, and asked...
"Five primary crystal cores for one pound of refined rice, and meat varies depending on quality; prices are all available." Zhang Xiaojuan handed Ma Dongmei a mint. "What? Is K3 coming to deliver goods?"
"If we sell any cheap goods, there will be a famine in the base. The base chief has taken out all his personal savings and told us to come here to buy some supplies to take back with us."
"Didn't you already achieve potato freedom? How come you're still facing a famine?" Zhang Xiaojuan chuckled, making fun of the boxed lunches she ate at the K3 base back in the hospital.
Ma Dongmei glared at him and sighed helplessly, "The acid rain corroded the plastic greenhouses, and more than half of the crops rotted. The grain reserves are only enough for two weeks, and next month we'll be eating dirt."
"Acid rain not only corrodes growing crops, but also damages the soil layer. Land corroded by rainwater can hardly grow anything anymore."
Lu Sheng raised his voice slightly and gave a serious reminder.
In the previous life, nearly 80% of the farmland was completely corroded and destroyed by acid rain.
Late in the acid rain season, food shortages nearly destroyed most of the established al-Qaeda organizations.
In a large base like K3 with 40,000 people, a real famine could lead to widespread starvation and even cannibalism.
She has already given the hint; what to do next is K3 base's responsibility.
"Forget about the meat then, let's just buy some potatoes and cabbage to get through the acid rain season first."
Ji Qing and her accomplices dared not delay and immediately pulled Lu Sheng and the others to the black market.
Ma Dongmei and Lin Xiaobao, dressed in casual clothes, were immediately surrounded by various vendors as soon as the two tall, beautiful, and glamorous women with red lips and white teeth appeared in the market.
Those who can operate in the black market are all shrewd and cunning. The two beautiful women were sleek and attractive, clearly easy targets for a hefty sum.
Lu Sheng and the others were watching Ma Dongmei haggling with the vendor out of boredom when a man wrapped up tightly suddenly approached.
"Little girl, I have everything I need. What do you want?"
Lu Sheng recognized the voice. She looked closely and realized it was the lean man who had tried to sell her baby sachets on the street before.
"Oh! It's you again!?"
He couldn't see her clearly because she was wearing a mask, but now that they were closer, the man recognized Lu Sheng.
"You really screwed me over! Last time you spent ages asking around but never bought anything, and I didn't earn a single penny and got a beating for nothing."
The man nearly suffered a stroke the moment he recognized Lu Sheng.
He usually sells his wares secretly and without any problems, but last time he just talked to this woman a few extra words, and then the man surnamed Zhu had someone beat him up.
If I had made money, that would be fine, but I didn't make a single penny!
"Do you have any dog food?" Lu Sheng asked in a low voice, pulling up her mask.
Upon hearing that there was business, the man immediately put on a professional smile. "Yes, yes, I just acquired a warehouse from an unlucky guy a few days ago. We have cat food and dog food."
She hadn't expected to get a dog; she only prepared cat food.
Now that we suddenly have a rocket (a type of dog), and since we don't have special dog food, we can only feed him chicken and beef for the time being.
But this might not suit their taste, so the Rockets always sneakily add some weird and unusual treats.
Lu Sheng often sees a gift from the rocket next to her pillow as soon as she opens her eyes in the morning.
Sometimes it's half a mouse, sometimes it's a mutated spider with its head gnawed off.
Although she knew the dog wanted to share the food with her, she couldn't resist this bloody surprise.
Most cat and dog food contains some palatability enhancers, so Lu Sheng planned to get some dog food for Rocket to correct his eating habits.
How many do you have?
"A warehouse."
"I'll take them all. Do you have any teething toys?"
The dog likes to put things in its mouth all the time. She didn't prepare any chew toys, so Rocket sucks on Sponge every day. Sponge is even marinated in its saliva.
"Yes, yes, yes, we have everything related to dogs."
The deal was done, and the man's mouth practically stretched to his ears in a grin.
He was worried about where to sell the warehouse full of dog food he had collected, and then the boss just fell from the sky.
"Let's check out the goods." Lu Sheng found a small alley that was relatively close to Ma Dongmei and the others.
The man looked around furtively and then pulled a sample bag of dog food from his pocket. "Let's take a look at this sample first. If it's suitable, we'll talk about it later."
Lu Sheng raised her eyes slightly and glanced at the man casually.
This person was also a spatial ability user. He thought he had disguised himself perfectly, but he still couldn't escape Lu Sheng's eyes.
Lu Sheng didn't intend to expose him, and took the dog food and weighed it in her hand.
It's a relatively large domestic brand, but the packaging was filthy, with a dried bloodstain and a small red fragment on the seal.
"To be honest, I only came across this dog food by chance the day before yesterday. I'm not asking for much; I'll sell it to you for whatever price you ask."
In this day and age, people can't even afford to live, who has the mind to keep a dog? He was worried about finding a market for this dog, and finally found someone willing to buy it.
The man was rubbing his hands together gleefully, preparing to make a windfall, when he felt a chilling sensation on his neck.
Where did the things come from?
Lu Sheng's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and with a slight exertion of force from her right hand, the sharp blade immediately cut a gash in the man's collar.
Although it had dried out, Lu Sheng could still tell at a glance that the small red fragments were the same as those Liang Xiaoyun had spat out.
It's pieces of internal organs!
These unscrupulous businessmen are very cunning; she couldn't get any answers from them without getting to the bottom of it.
"What are you doing... It's just some dog food, no need to go to the trouble of knives! I'll give you as much as you want! I was just picked up anyway!"
The man was so frightened that he almost knelt down on the spot.
He shouldn't have talked to that woman! Running into her never ends well!
"Stop talking nonsense and speak!"
"I'll tell you! The day before yesterday, I passed by the warehouse of a pet supply store and happened to find the owner dead inside. So I just stopped by..."
Just as Lu Sheng was about to ask for more information, a gasp suddenly came from Ma Dongmei's direction.
