After the transaction was completed, Jiang Feng did not let the turtle leave immediately. Firstly, it was already very late, and secondly, he still needed to collect some information from this gathering place.
Compared to me, who knew nothing about this place, these people had lived here for so long and must have known more about the surrounding area. After two fair transactions, there was more or less a foundation of trust between them, which was enough for them to exchange some information.
As for whether the information obtained is true and valid, Jiang Feng also has a way, which is to use the power of the mutant termite with psychic powers.
When humans lie, their emotions or psychological activities are definitely different from normal ones. We can get more reliable information by simply taking advantage of this.
Jiang Feng and his team did not do anything that night. They all did their jobs. Those who should sleep after dinner slept, and those who should patrol and keep watch did so diligently.
The Yundian was much more lively. The two exchanges not only allowed them to obtain a large amount of food but also a lot of equipment, including various armors, cold weapons, bows and crossbows, etc.
These equipments are relatively new. After all, when Jiang Feng replaced the rune armor for the combat team members, some of them had not been wearing the equipment for long.
So this evening, in addition to being able to eat a hearty meal, a large amount of equipment was also distributed. This was also Ji Yun's way of winning people's hearts. After all, a good piece of equipment was sometimes enough to save their lives.
However, the effect of doing so was naturally surprisingly good. No one would complain that their equipment was too good. After receiving their equipment, every defender was grateful to Ji Yun.
A night later, Zhongli came to Yunding again, but this time Jiang Feng was also there. He had not yet met Ji Yun formally.
Ji Yun, who also received the news, also made some preparations. Although she didn't like men, anyone who was not stupid knew what to do.
After settling into the fortress in the central area, Jiang Feng went straight to the point and said to Ji Yun, "I need all the information you know. What forces are there around here? Are there any special areas, or even the situation in the city? Of course, in return, I will also reveal some of what I know to you!"
"good"
Ji Yun did not bargain, or there was no point in bargaining in this kind of information exchange. There is no way to measure the value of information, it depends on the person.
The questions Jiang Feng asked had little to do with them. As long as it didn't involve themselves, why bother to care so much?
"I don't know if there are any gathering places around here, but there must be one on the other side of the city. That's where we came from. You are asking about special areas. I wonder if the ghost forest counts? When we escaped here, we encountered a dead tree forest at the junction of the city and the mountains. That time I lost hundreds of people! As for the city, it has been so long that I don't know what it looks like now." After drinking a glass of water, Ji Yun slowly recounted what she had experienced. After talking about some personal experiences, she took out a map and circled a few places.
Then she asked Jiang Feng some more questions, mainly about the situation outside. She herself knew that living here was like looking from the bottom of a well.
"Most of the areas outside are now uninhabited, and human settlements are constantly decreasing. It's difficult to survive in settlements where disasters and human suffering are constant. As for those super-large settlements, I haven't been there either."
"But according to what I know, the super-large gathering places had already received the news and had made all kinds of preparations before the end of the world. The situation in all aspects was beyond imagination."
Jiang Feng also told her some of his own experiences. Judging from the current situation, the situation of human beings themselves is not optimistic. The situation outside is terribly complicated. Basically, ordinary people no longer have the ability to survive in the wild.
The communication between the two parties did not take long. Although it looked like just an ordinary conversation, only they themselves knew the shock it brought.
In the end, Ji Yun made a difficult decision. The more she learned about the outside situation, the more frightened she became. So she wanted to join Jiang Feng and his men, or form an alliance with them to seek refuge.
Finally, after she put forward this idea, Jiang Feng was silent for a long time. At first glance, it seemed that forming an alliance would bring him no benefit at all, because he had already got what he wanted.
But then he thought, could this be considered an investment? This settlement is secluded, so safety is guaranteed. The population is also quite large, which is a potential resource. Furthermore, there is a gemstone vein here, but gemstones take time to form. Currently, only a few hundred gemstones can be harvested each year, as Ji Yun personally knew.
"Okay, but I need supplies, all kinds of supplies! You help me collect the supplies, and I will use my own way to ensure your safety!" After thinking carefully for a long time, Jiang Feng finally agreed. Although he didn't get much benefit for the time being, it was still a good investment in the long run.
"No problem!" Ji Yun was also happy. Their strength was too weak. In the past, when there was no force to compare with them, they could still survive in ignorance.
But now she saw that Jiang Feng and the others were stronger than each other, and yet they were still cautious towards the outside world despite their strength, which made her feel scared.
"That's good. I'll have someone come over to arrange defenses for you later. You must remember everything she tells you carefully. Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you if anything goes wrong."
"Thank you! We'll be there if you need us in the future." Ji Yun finally breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know what method the other party would use, but it was definitely stronger than their current defense.
