Faced with these chattering comments, Ye Li remained unusually calm and composed, as if he hadn't heard them. He simply stared intently at the bearded man and asked in a flat tone, "What, do you need something from me?"
"Hehe, I'm the captain of the Truckers Alliance team, my name is Li Haizhu," the bearded man said with a smile.
"Oh? I have heard about it," Ye Li said casually.
Li Haizhu's face was plastered with a fawning smile as he continued, "We're not here for anything else, we just wanted to pay our respects to the mountain and get to know God Ye."
However, when his fawning smile contrasted with his slightly sarcastic and cunning expression, Ye Li always felt that this man was up to no good.
"Paying homage to the mountain stronghold?"
Ye Li suddenly found it somewhat amusing.
When we were on Earth, everyone was bound by civilized laws, and things that shouldn't exist were basically eliminated.
Now that we've entered the survival world, all sorts of people have appeared.
Ye Li's lips curled into a faint smile as he stared at Li Haizhu and said, "Since you're going to pay respects, you should at least show some sincerity and make some gesture, right? From ancient times to the present, how can you expect to pay respects for nothing with just words?"
"......"
Upon hearing Ye Li's words, Li Haizhu was stunned, as if struck by lightning.
Because he really hadn't prepared anything to say.
I just wanted to come and get to know Ye Li.
Ye Li noticed Li Haizhu's embarrassment and continued with a smile, "Your team must have quite a few good things, right? You were able to take down the giant mechanical spider and arrive at the finish line unscathed, with not a single bug chasing after you. I suppose you've already dealt with those bugs?"
As soon as Ye Li finished speaking, the muscles on Li Haizhu's face stiffened instantly, as if he had been frozen in place.
A chill ran down my spine, and I broke out in a cold sweat.
—Oh no, Ye Li has his eye on our team's prized possession.
Li Haizhu inwardly groaned.
Even some of the truck driver alliance team members standing next to Li Haizhu could hear the hidden meaning in Ye Li's words.
His face also darkened.
Seeing the tense expressions on Li Haizhu's and the others' faces, Ye Li suddenly burst out laughing.
Ye Li waved his hand gently and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I was just joking, don't mind it!"
While hastily wiping the cold sweat beading on his forehead with his sleeve, Li Haizhu stammered, "No...no problem, not at all. It's just that a small convoy like ours really doesn't have any particularly precious or rare treasures to offer to someone as great as you..."
"However, if you don't mind, Master Ye, our team has acquired some legendary quality materials, which I would like to offer to you."
Ye Li stared expressionlessly at Li Haizhu's face, which was slightly distorted by tension. His tone was calm yet carried an inscrutable quality as he slowly asked, "Oh? The truth?"
Li Haizhu's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "This guy really doesn't intend to accept those materials."
But on the surface, he still tried to remain calm and make his smile look more natural, and hurriedly replied, "That must be the truth! I swear to God, I would never dare to lie to you, Master Ye!"
Ye Li smiled and said, "I'm not personally very interested in these so-called legendary quality materials, but if I don't accept them, Captain Li will definitely say that I'm not giving you face, so I can only reluctantly accept them."
"Tsk!"
Li Haizhu paused for a moment, then gave Ye Li a deep look.
Goodness, this guy isn't even going to let go of this little bit of cheapness. He really isn't picky about food at all!
"Someone come here!"
Li Haizhu shouted.
The two survivors standing next to him immediately turned their attention to him and asked, "Boss, what's going on?"
Li Haizhu turned around, winked at the two men, and said loudly, "Bring over all the legendary quality materials we've collected as a gift for God Ye."
