With the blessing of Captain Mingliang's gold system, you don't have to worry about the car even if you hit many zombies in a row.
There are quite a few camping vehicles, and the fewer they are, the better. There is also a camping vehicle with a damaged front end parked in Dawn City.
When Shi Qinghe saw that the front of the car was still intact, he thought of their car parked at home and wondered if he could consider asking Mingliang to repair and reinforce the back of the car.
With this thought in mind, when getting off the bus, Shi Qinghe looked at Mingliang several times, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
It was Mingliang who came over to say hello and asked him what was the matter.
Shi Qinghe pulled Mingliang over, placed his hand on Mingliang's shoulder, and whispered to him, "I want to ask you for a favor."
"Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you. Have you seen the protective cover you reinforced for us? We'd like to ask you to come back and help us reinforce another car. We'll pay you, but I'm not sure how your reward will be calculated."
Mingliang was a little nervous at first, but he felt relieved when he heard that he was only asked to reinforce the car.
"Okay, I'll get you another car when we get back safely. As for the reward, I heard you have food for sale over there? Can you sell me more?" Mingliang looked away, and his voice was also very low, for fear that others would hear it.
"Tell me the lowdown, how do I buy it? I heard it's a crystal core, some say it's hard labor, and some say it's missions. There are so many rumors about your base, I don't know which ones are true."
"What we're selling is the crystal core."
Shi Qinghe considered himself to be familiar with Xu Bai, so he naturally knew that Xu Bai did not object to non-residents coming to Shuguang City to buy and sell food. Although he did not know what the use of Xu Bai was for these energy points, that is, money, he knew one thing: collecting these crystal cores could greatly improve his strength.
The crystal cores they exchanged were always those that did not match their abilities, and they could also exchange them for crystal cores that matched their abilities at the machines in the office, but it would cost more money.
"Okay, okay, if you have extra food, remember to consider selling it to me first. I will save up a lot of crystal cores and come back to you."
"To be honest, the one at home is pregnant. If you have anything nutritious, remember to let me know." Mingliang wanted to make friends, and even his tone became more intimate.
Shi Qinghe looked at Mingliang in surprise and congratulated him several times.
Mingliang looks no more than 28 years old. He got engaged a few years ago and was planning to get married at the end of the year. His fiancée had just finished a checkup and was pregnant when the apocalypse happened. He was both happy and worried. Fortunately, his fiancée was in good health and had awakened the wood-type ability. His mother-in-law awakened the water-type ability, and Mingliang awakened the gold-type ability. It was with such family strength that they were able to survive the apocalypse until now.
In order to obtain more food, Mingliang goes on various high-risk missions to collect materials.
The feedback from the base was enough to protect the safety of his fiancée and mother-in-law, and the three of them had just enough food to get by.
The materials collected have been getting less and less recently. When he heard the rumors about Dawn City, he was tempted to go and explore, but since he had a wife, children and elderly people, he didn't want to take too much risk.
If he can get to this point in his current base, will he be able to do the same in another base?
Although both his fiancée and mother-in-law have superpowers, it is inconvenient to do so when he is pregnant. Moreover, the wood and water abilities are not very strong. Mingliang can stay in a base that protects them, and he has some self-protection ability. This is why Mingliang still stays in the base.
It took them almost a day to get from Zhe City to the suburbs of the next small county town.
It was afternoon when we arrived here, almost evening, and no one would run into the factory to fight the zombies head-on.
The surroundings were desolate and there were no other buildings. We could only rest on the spot at night, which was extremely dangerous. Everyone spread out a little and found a place not far apart to park the car. Everyone slept on the chairs in the car at night.
It was still quite early, and many people sat on the ground to rest, while others were preparing dinner.
For example, Xu Bai and others.
Before going out, they agreed to bring rice and other things with them, and also made a lot of buns, and asked Jiao Nanmu to freeze a box of ice packs for them.
Mingliang sat at the side and ate a whole-grain steamed bun and drank a sip of water. His stomach was rumbling with hunger. He stared in amazement as they unloaded a folding table, bowls and chopsticks, a frying pan, a steamer, and even a gas stove and a very small gas stove from the car.
I'm afraid they're not out to kill zombies, but out for a picnic, right? !
When the delicious aroma of meat buns wafted from the steamer, the people nearby could no longer sit still and gathered around, staring at the steamer.
If they didn't know that this group of people were very powerful, many people would have rushed up and snatched it away.
"You guys are so rude. You know we're starving, but you still make us eat so delicious food. Can't we just have some dry food?"
The person who spoke was the captain of the second team, Haozi. Haozi squatted on the ground, supporting his face with his hands, and wiped his mouth while speaking.
"Can you sell me two? I'll give you the crystal core. Is a wood-type crystal core okay?"
Haozi took out a green crystal core from his pocket and handed it to Shi Qinghe.
In fact, everyone can see that Shi Qinghe is not the one in charge of their mercenary group. Instead, it is another cold and silent man holding an axe in his hand. Compared with the warm and easy-going Shi Qinghe, no one would think of contacting a cold person.
"Okay."
"I'll give it to you when it's warm."
Shi Qinghe took the green crystal core, saw Haozi's reluctant look, and smiled.
"Um..." Haozi stood up. At 1.9 meters tall, he was a head taller than Shi Qinghe. But afraid that others would hear him, he bent down slightly and whispered in Shi Qinghe's ear: "I have other crystal cores. If we want to return safely, can I take the other crystal cores and exchange them with you for this wood crystal core?"
"Do you have new friends with Wood-type abilities that you need?"
"Never mind, that's fine, but it's only valid within a week after you return. After a week, I won't be able to exchange it for you. The exchange amount must be at least this value of the crystal core."
"Thank you, thank you. No, it's just that I like this crystal core. It's as beautiful as an emerald. I take it out and look at it and touch it every night before going to bed."
Shi Qinghe raised her eyes and looked at Haozi for a few times. After making sure that Haozi was not joking, she said nothing.
The buns heated up quickly.
When he ate the hot meat buns, Haozi felt like he was alive like a human being. He felt even more that it was right for him to carry a crystal core with him at all times. Otherwise, where could he exchange it for food?
These days, the base has been collecting crystal cores.
Most of the crystal cores in everyone's hands were exchanged for food at the base. When they saw the rats exchanging crystal cores for food, they regretted it so much when they thought about how their pockets were cleaner than their faces.
