Lu Yuan slowly took off his cotton-padded coat, revealing only a thin T-shirt underneath. That was all he was wearing on his upper body.
Then, Lu Yuan took the coat in his hand and gently handed it to the other person.
The man reached out and gently took the coat, a smug look on his face. He then put the coat on and kept sniffing the scent of the clothes.
"Hehe! It's made of goose down! It tastes like goose, I haven't had it in ages! I really miss it!"
Lu Yuan frowned as he looked at the other person, then asked softly, "I've given you the cotton-padded coat. Now, can we talk about your conditions? I only want a car. I'm not interested in what happened here! And you don't need to worry about me telling anyone about what happened here!"
The other person grinned, revealing a mouth dripping with blood.
"Don't rush! There's still plenty of time! I'm quite interested in your identity. All contact with the outside world has been cut off. How did you get here?"
"That's not your business! Hurry up, where's the car? What do you need? I need a car that's in good working order and can be driven out!"
Lu Yuan felt the cold wind behind him, but he still endured it. He was getting anxious. Every second he stayed here now would increase the danger.
The danger comes not only from the people in front of them, but also from Qiao Zhuang. They must have discovered that Lu Yuan and his group have escaped. It's uncertain whether he will go to great lengths to capture them. However, they must be wary of Lu Yuan. If no one comes to capture them, all is well, but if someone does, they will be in real danger.
After all, Qiao Zhuang's informants were all over the island, so it was easy for him to find out about a few people. More importantly, they had a lot of people and great power. Lu Yuan and his seven men were no match for them at all.
The man smiled, and the scar on his neck moved as well, coiling around the other man's neck like a centipede, looking quite creepy.
"Alright, if you can't even satisfy this little bit of my curiosity, then forget it! I won't ask anymore. Here's the deal: I have a car, a brand new SUV, sitting in the garage. If you want to trade it, you'll need at least three pigs! Or other meat will do, a thousand catties, no discounts!"
Hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but curse inwardly. After the apocalypse, cars were basically scrap metal. No one wanted to buy them, and no one could afford to drive them. Gasoline became a controlled commodity, controlled by various forces. They would only use a little bit when the situation was most critical.
In District 5, you could get three pigs for a car, or even ten kilograms of rice for the same price. For them to ask for three pigs is simply outrageous.
"Heh! That's outrageous! Forget three pigs, I don't even have one! But I do have some compressed biscuits! If you want them, I can give you them all! They're more filling than pork!"
Lu Yuan also laid out his conditions, and it was necessary to bargain with the other party. This man was deliberately asking for an exorbitant price because he saw that Lu Yuan was in a hurry to get the car. Lu Yuan had pork, not to mention three pigs, he could produce three hundred pigs. But if he really gave it to the other party, it would expose his secret. He couldn't take that risk, nor could he afford to take that risk.
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's reply, the other party laughed again.
"Compressed biscuits? Ha! You think I'm a beggar? Besides, we're all used to eating meat, we can't stand biscuits! Why don't you stay, or your companion stay, and give us some more meat? I'll give you the car!"
Standing behind him, Xiwen immediately cursed, "Bastard! Do you want to die?! If you utter another word of nonsense, I'll shoot you right now!"
A cold glint flashed in the man's eyes, then he turned and glanced at Xiwen behind him: "Kid, go ahead and shoot if you dare! If I blink, I'm your son! Come on!"
As he spoke, the other person walked directly up to Xiwen and pointed to his forehead.
"Come on! Fire!"
Xiwen was so frightened that he kept backing away until his heels hit the wall.
"Coward! Look how scared you are! Let me tell you the truth, I'm not afraid of death at all. I've died several times already, why would I be afraid of your threats!"
As he spoke, the man took off all his clothes, revealing his body covered in wounds.
His body was covered in wounds, all cut off along with the skin and flesh, as if someone had deliberately cut them off. Every cut avoided his vital organs, and even the aorta was avoided, as if they were afraid he would die.
"Seventy percent of my flesh has been cut off; I'd be dead a million times over! You're threatening me? Ha! Let me tell you the truth, everyone who lives here has some flesh missing!"
With that, the man returned to the broken table and sat down again.
"Kid, I've suddenly had a new idea. If you agree to my terms, I'll give you the car! I don't even need the pork! How about it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people around immediately started whispering and laughing, as if they were mocking Lu Yuan and his companion for being cowardly and timid and not daring to do it.
Lu Yuan frowned as he looked at the other person, pondered for a moment, and said, "Alright, tell me! As long as it's within our capabilities!"
"Simple! You guys, bring up our offerings!"
Lu Yuan and his companion were puzzled when they heard about the offerings, but they were not calm until a girl who was tied up was brought up from the underground cave entrance.
