Chapter 371 Does it actually contain rapeseed?
At the same time, Xiao Zhao finally realized the truth.
He stood there stunned, muttering to himself.
"Is this also a way of living...?"
The phrase kept repeating in his mind.
Yes, he hadn't quite understood before, but tonight, after hearing Han Shuo explain it to him, he truly understood.
For them, killing Brother Leopard and his gang was easy, but was the final outcome good? Was it what those women truly wanted to see?
This time, Xiao Zhao instantly had the answer in his heart.
It turns out that the people in the camp were all acting on mutual consent.
As for why those women chose this way of life...
It's very simple; it can be summarized in three words:
To be alive!
At least they no longer have to worry about dying from exhaustion on the run.
Although Leopard and his gang used them as tools for venting their anger, they also protected their lives in this camp.
In this world, is there anything more precious than one's own life?
Obviously not. In the eyes of those women, what did selling their bodies matter? As long as they could survive, that was all that mattered.
They had seen this kind of thing many times before the apocalypse, and were now used to it.
It's just that in the past it was about exchanging for benefits, but now it's about exchanging for lives.
The reason why Xiao Zhao couldn't see this point at first was because he had too little social experience.
At that time, he had not yet reached the point of formally entering society, but he directly joined the army.
Although he has been trying to accept more realistic things over the past two years, he still doesn't see things as clearly as Han Shuo and Fatty in some aspects.
Fortunately, tonight, through Han Shuo's explanation, he finally understood...
...
Seeing Xiao Zhao standing there in a daze, the fat man quickly smiled and went over to tease him.
"Alright, alright, now that we understand, let's stop thinking about it."
"Let's go, let's go back. We haven't eaten dinner yet, we're starving, starving..."
"Yeah, Fatty!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the dejected look on Xiao Zhao's face vanished.
He nodded slightly apologetically to the two of them, then a smile returned to his face.
Let's go.
Han Shuo smiled and waved his hand, responding without any sign of mind.
Seeing that Xiao Zhao had regained his spirits, he stopped thinking about it and turned around to continue his journey back the way he came.
And so, none of the three paid any attention to what was happening at the camp.
For both sides, the best outcome right now is for them to mind their own business and not interfere with each other.
...
On the way back, the three of them were noticeably more relaxed.
Because Qingyu's main force had just left this place two days ago, there really weren't many zombies around.
In addition, the three of them had cleared some debris before they arrived, so at this point, they couldn't see a single living zombie in their line of sight.
Fatty was worried that Xiao Zhao was still dwelling on what had just happened, so he kept telling him funny jokes from behind to make him laugh.
He certainly has many ways of regulating other people's emotions.
Han Shuo continued to lead the way, when suddenly he remembered something.
"Fatty, Xiao Zhao, come a little closer and walk side by side. I have something to ask you two."
"Oh, here it comes."
"good."
When the two came closer, Han Shuo asked.
"By the way, did Brother Yao Nan get any rapeseed among the food supplies he traded from the underground research institute?"
After he said that, the fat man's eyes widened suddenly.
He asked uncertainly, "What is that? Rapeseed?"
Xiao Zhao also looked at Han Shuo with a blank expression, clearly not understanding the meaning of those words.
"Yes, rapeseed."
Han Shuo repeated it again.
This time, the fat man had a look of sudden realization.
"Oh! Oh! Oh! I know, you mean the rapeseed for planting vegetables?"
"Then what……"
After hearing this, Han Shuo slapped his forehead in frustration. Sure enough, these two still didn't understand what he was trying to say.
Sigh~
He sighed, turned and glared at the two of them, then spoke.
"I say, when you two were observing that camp just now, were your eyes entirely focused on those women? Didn't you notice anything else?"
"No."
The fat man responded sincerely, and Xiao Zhao shook his head in agreement.
Han Shuo was completely speechless at the two of them. He was too lazy to scold them anymore and simply told them the results of his observation.
"Next to the wooden stakes on the outskirts of the camp, there is an open space. The land has clearly been cultivated, with traces of vegetables being grown there."
After he finished speaking, the fat man quickly chimed in.
"Oh, so that's what it is. I saw it a while ago and was just about to tell you. With my sharp eyes, how could I not notice such important information?"
"Shut up, stop pretending with me. Do you think I didn't know where your eyes were just now?"
Han Shuo unleashed a torrent of abuse without any restraint.
If he believed the fat man's nonsense, he wouldn't be Han Shuo.
No one understood the fat man better than him.
This kid is a master at taking credit; his words are always better than his actions. Right now, all he wants to do is sew the fat man's mouth shut.
...
Han Shuo was too lazy to argue with the fat man any longer, so he turned around and said sternly.
“This time, I’m going to single you two out. Details are very important. In the future, when you’re gathering information, you must first find out what’s useful to us.”
"As for those unimportant things, look at them less and don't waste time on them."
After he finished speaking, the fat man smiled awkwardly and then put on a serious expression.
Xiao Zhao, on the other hand, pulled out a small notebook from his pocket, took out a pen, and prepared to record the contents of Han Shuo's "meeting" on the spot.
Han Shuo glared at the fat man first, then looked at Xiao Zhao and couldn't help but sigh with satisfaction.
"Look, look, this is a good child..."
...
Then, Han Shuo began to recount his story again.
"We really got quite a lot from the camp this time."
"We can follow their example of making a living by growing vegetables."
"If we need to stay in the same place for a while for some reason, we can plant some vegetables. This will not only slow down the consumption of food, but also allow us to eat better."
"That's why I asked you, does Brother Yaonan have any rapeseed? Do you understand?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhao began taking notes.
This time, the fat man was really serious.
"Yes, after the long period of rainfall recently, the land outside is ready to be replanted."
"If it's possible to grow vegetables, that would indeed be a very good suggestion."
Han Shuo nodded and asked again.
So, do we have rapeseed or not?
He asked this because Fatty and Xiao Zhao had helped Cheng Shenghong organize everyone's supplies.
As for himself, he was busy with other things, so he only had a rough estimate of the team's supplies.
As for whether there were any strange things involved, Han Shuo really didn't know much about it.
