Chapter 199 The two return to camp
With Han Shuo's support, Cheng Shenghong instinctively continued walking.
His eyes turned strange, and he fell into deep thought.
Just now, he heard Wang Bahu mention turbid liquid.
But he never expected that the turbid liquid was the thing in his hand.
In his mind, the reason why turbid liquid is called turbid liquid is that it should be a cloudy liquid.
The liquid in his hand looked so pure white that it was completely free of impurities.
Little did he know that the name "turbid liquid" came from the fact that its subtle components were very complex, which could not be seen with the naked eye alone.
At the time, Cheng Shenghong had simply never seen this liquid before, and thought it looked quite pretty under the sunlight, so he picked it up on a whim...
I kept thinking about it.
Suddenly, Cheng Shenghong stopped in his tracks, made a decision in his heart, and spoke firmly.
“Brother Han, since you are going to give me a truckload of supplies, I can’t accept it for nothing. Consider the turbid liquid in this bottle as a form of exchange.”
As he spoke, he shoved the bottle in his hand directly into Han Shuo's hand.
"Stop fooling around."
Han Shuo was quite surprised. He didn't expect that Cheng Shenghong would give it to him so easily after knowing how precious the turbid liquid was.
"Has this kid gone mad?"
He thought to himself, then continued speaking.
"You devil, maybe I didn't explain it to you clearly just now."
"Do you know that the value of these 10 drops of turbid liquid far exceeds the value of the supplies in the truck I gave you?"
"These 10 drops are probably enough to offset all the medicines and supplies we get from the finished goods warehouse."
Cheng Shenghong shook his head, still sticking to his decision.
"Brother Han, please accept this. The supplies you gave me are a godsend. In my heart, my brother's life is the most important thing. What are these 10 drops of turbid liquid?"
"Besides, I, the demon man, don't like owing anyone anything."
"But it's still too much..."
Seeing that Han Shuo still refused to accept it, Cheng Shenghong smiled and continued.
"Alright, I still have a condition. After we rescue Xingzai, I would like to ask Brother Han to allow us to return to the underground research institute with you."
"After all, we are not familiar with the route. With you leading the way, it will definitely be much smoother."
"It's settled then, Brother Han. If you don't accept it, you don't consider me a friend."
Han Shuo sighed, and ultimately didn't linger any longer, putting the bottle into his pocket.
He also knew that Cheng Shenghong's move was a gesture of goodwill.
However, this time he still came out on top.
He had already decided that after everyone returned to the underground research institute, he would find an opportunity to give Cheng Shenghong and the others something else to make up for it.
He calculated carefully, and with the addition of these 10 drops of turbid liquid, he now had a total of 33 drops of turbid liquid in his hand.
They are:
The remaining 3 drops after Xiao Zhao's modification, the 20 drops picked up from the giant alien, and the 10 drops given by Cheng Shenghong.
I don't know if everyone was lucky or unlucky this time.
Surprisingly, there was no confrontation with the alien species during this trip; all 30 drops of turbid liquid were obtained through other means.
33 drops is enough to elevate the team's overall strength by several levels.
Han Shuo smiled helplessly.
"Sigh, alright then, I'll accept it. Seeing Qin Hongling and Wang Bahu together today has put a lot of pressure on me."
"That's right. There's still a long road ahead. I believe that my brothers and I will definitely obtain the turbid liquid again."
The two said nothing more and continued on their way towards the camp.
As they walked, Cheng Shenghong suddenly remembered something and turned to ask.
"By the way, Brother Han, what's the deal with that chubby guy in your team?"
Upon hearing this, Han Shuo understood what he meant and quickly explained it to him.
"Oh, I forgot to mention earlier, apart from that child, the other four members of my team have been vaccinated with inhibitors developed by the underground research institute. They can effectively resist the invasion of the Ice Crystal Virus, so even if they are injured, they no longer need to worry about being infected by zombies."
Cheng Shenghong was overjoyed; this was incredibly good news.
"Oh? So, can we get vaccinated when we get there?"
"Don't worry, I feel like there shouldn't be any problems."
Han Shuo said with a smile, then added a joke.
"By the way, the fat guy you mentioned is also a genetically engineered human."
"Last time, you pointed a gun at him, and that's why he didn't dare to fight back. Otherwise, you would be the one with black eyes."
"Oh, and Xiao Zhao too, count me in. In my team, there are three Level 1 evolved human genes."
"Wow, that's amazing!?"
Cheng Shenghong stood there awkwardly, his face contorted in a grimace as he pondered his next move.
"I thought that Han was the only strong one in Brother Han's team."
"In retrospect, I underestimated their strength."
"Others are fine, but the most crucial thing is that even that seemingly weak chubby kid is stronger than me?"
"If that fat guy had fought back, I probably would have been beaten to a pulp too."
"Getting beaten up by that fat guy? Damn it, I can't be so reckless next time, I almost lost my temper..."
...
And so, the two walked along, chatting and laughing. Because Cheng Shenghong was injured, his pace slowed down on the return journey.
Several hours later, they finally arrived at the camp.
Before he knew it, Han Shuo had left early in the morning and returned at noon.
When the fat man saw him return, he quickly jogged over to greet him.
After a day and a night of rest, his condition had almost completely recovered.
"Damn, you're finally back? I thought you'd died out there."
He had barely finished speaking when he saw Cheng Shenghong standing to the side, his face bruised and swollen.
"Huh? How did this thing get like this? Did you beat it up?"
His mouth remains as sharp as ever...
Han Shuo waved his hand and glared at him irritably.
"Go away, go away. There's been a little unexpected situation. I'll explain in detail later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Shenghong's men all rushed over.
Seeing their leader in this state, everyone was very worried.
"Boss, you went to rescue Xingzai by yourself?"
"Why didn't you call us? What would we do if you died?"
"Damn it, they beat the boss up like this, I'll fight them to the death."
...
The crowd chattered amongst themselves, and some angrily picked up weapons, intending to run out and avenge Cheng Shenghong.
"Alright, everyone quiet down. Go back first, and I'll talk to you slowly."
After Cheng Shenghong finished speaking, he nodded apologetically to Han Shuo.
"Brother Han, I'm in trouble."
"fine."
With the help of his men, Cheng Shenghong returned to his side, while Han Shuo led the fat man back into the tent.
Both of them had many things to discuss with their own people...
