In the wasteland world, material resources are scarce, and these people's perception of survival resources is like sharks in the sea smelling blood. When they smell a little bit of scent, they will swim over in groups frantically.
It's instinct.
The white-haired old man and his group of men are examples.
People here have no shortage of means to make a living.
Gu Huaiwei doesn't hate this kind of people. The white-haired old man has killed someone in front of her, but she doesn't feel disgusted. She just keeps a proper distance from him.
The white-haired old man's business targets are mainly rat people.
Looks like business is good.
Gu Huaiwei believed that if everyone had the awareness of the white-haired old man, this street would prosper in no time.
Maybe, a large-scale commercial street will be formed.
Gu Huaiwei was happy to see it happen.
Because the more prosperous it is, the better her hotel business will be.
Scar Woman comes to work about once a week.
Occasionally, she would come to the hotel entrance with a bag of metal scraps to exchange for melon seeds.
After coming more often, Scar Woman would start talking to Gu Huaiwei.
That day, it was Scar Woman's turn to go to work.
After finishing her morning work, the scarred woman came to Gu Huaiwei's shop to exchange things.
"The things you have here are really good. Some of them may not even be available in the upper city." The scarred woman poured mineral water into her protective suit and then drank it through a special pipe.
After leaving the hotel lobby, Scar Woman cannot take off her protective suit.
Gu Huaiwei could adapt to the wind and sand outside. She sat on a small bench at the hotel entrance, letting the dust settle on her long hair. "Actually, the themed rooms are better. They allow you to experience the unpolluted world before the nuclear explosion."
When it comes to theme rooms, Gu Huaiwei has endless things to say.
“When your shop business is successful, you must persuade that white-haired old man to bring you here to experience it.
I have opened four themed rooms now.
The Wizard of Oz themed room has high oxygen content, fresh air, and green vegetation everywhere you look.
In the Cloud House theme room, the carpet is as soft as white clouds.
The Huaxi Liushang themed room has a clear stream running through the house, and pink peach blossoms on the water, which is very beautiful.
In the Shandao Jiyue themed room, you can see the moon on the ceiling.
Believe me, every room in it is worth experiencing and your gold coins will not be wasted."
Gu Huaiwei wants to sell the theme room.
Scar Woman just sipped the refreshing mineral water, a look of confusion on her ferocious face: "I can't imagine it."
Gu Huaiwei gestured, pointing her finger at the sky and the distance, and changed her way of expression: "Well... it's the blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and green waters. You can imagine their colors."
Scarlett knows the colors blue, white, and green.
But there is no way to connect these colors to the sky.
Their world is filled with more rusty colors.
The sky is, and so is the water.
So, Gu Huaiwei ran back to the hotel, took photos of the four unlocked theme rooms, printed them out in color, and gave them to Scar Woman, hoping that she could help promote them.
Scar Woman actually likes these photos very much.
She didn't say anything polite, but directly threw a yellowed booklet to Gu Huaiwei.
Women's Dagger Self-Defense
Gu Huaiwei flipped through a few pages and found that they were full of pictures and handwritten annotations.
"This is?"
Scar girl said in a cold voice: "You don't have enough muscles, this one is more suitable for you.
Practice more with the dagger I gave you last time, and next time you see someone being killed, don't instinctively clench your fists."
Gu Huaiwei said with some surprise: "Okay, I will start practicing tomorrow."
"Tsk, don't die." The scarred woman put the photo away carefully and left with her hands in her pockets.
Gu Huaiwei returned to the hotel and took advantage of her lunch break to read the book "Women's Dagger Self-Defense Techniques".
She found that the book was really practical.
The knife is a killing knife.
Gu Huaiwei recalled a news story she had read about a student who had just finished military training at the university and was robbed. He performed a complete set of military boxing and was stabbed 40 times by the gangster.
What she wanted to learn was not the kind of self-defense skills that could strengthen the body, but the skills that could be used in real fights and to win.
Gu Huaiwei read the book carefully.
She discovered that, unlike modern martial arts classes, the movements taught in this book did not emphasize beauty, but instead focused on agility, speed, and power.
It's what she needs!
Gu Huaiwei held the dagger and imitated the movements in the book.
Because she was too focused, she didn't even notice when the forest snake came over.
It was not until Lin She's hand, as cold as a dead man's, suddenly grabbed her wrist that she realized she had almost stabbed the dagger into his throat.
Lin She released his hand and asked in a flat voice, "What are you doing?"
"Learn." Gu Huaiwei raised the "Women's Dagger Self-Defense Technique" in her hand.
After practicing for a short while, she felt that all the movements in the book were imprinted in her mind.
She thought that if she could fully understand the contents of this book, then in the future, when she encountered thugs looking for trouble, she would be able to defend herself and beat down all those troublemakers.
"Learn to kill?" Lin She seemed very interested.
Gu Huaiwei pointed to the words on the cover of the book and emphasized: "It's not for killing people, it's for self-defense.
Next time, when I'm practicing, don't suddenly appear next to me.
This dagger is very sharp, and I am very poor. If I hurt you, I cannot afford to pay you back."
"It's okay, I will fight back." Lin She said the terrifying words calmly.
He was not afraid of the dagger at all. Flipping through the book that Gu Huaiwei was practicing, he felt that it was still teaching the skills of killing.
