Chapter 174 Inviting the Seven Brothers
The seven brothers didn't notice that the eyes of the big team were malicious. Instead, they thought that they were really good people. Look at their enthusiasm, and they felt warm in their hearts.
Lan Shiruo said, "We saw you before, but it was inconvenient to say hello. We wanted to find an opportunity to find you, but we didn't expect to run into you by chance. It's just right, so we'll return the things to you."
"Things? What things?" The seven brothers thought seriously, what could they have that could belong to the big team? They were so poor that they even thought they were poor, how could they have anything?
Lan Shiruo waved her hand and released the supplies received in the office building. "We were in the crowd at the time, and there were too many people fighting for them, so we came up with a plan to get them away first. We didn't have time to tell you because we were afraid it would be exposed and cause trouble. Keep them."
The seven brothers were a little stunned. They didn't expect the thing to be here. So they were the ones who created the fog?
But the key point is, no one knows about this, so why would they return it to him? Although they are acquaintances, it was only a one-time encounter, and they had fought together. Furthermore, they owed each other a favor, so there was no need to give the things away.
Lan Shiruo smiled, "I know you have doubts, so feel free to accept the things. Although supplies are indeed scarce now, no matter how little, I won't despise them. We are not too close to each other to go to such lengths. But I admire your help just now and your character in returning the gun before, so I am willing to make friends with you. In today's world, we need more people like you to work together to defeat mutants and corpses and end the apocalypse. Everyone wants to survive, and it is difficult to survive alone. Feel free to accept it."
The seven brothers suddenly felt their blood boiling, as if they were good horses who had finally met a mentor who could see them shine.
Sa Bing's eyes were red, and he said excitedly, "To be honest, everyone says we are stupid. From the end of the world to now, we haven't saved a single grain of food, we don't have a car, and we don't have a good weapon. We have survived to this day by brute force, and we have nothing. We ourselves know that we brothers are all from the mountains. We have no knowledge, no brains, no skills, and are good for nothing. It is really a miracle that we are still alive today. We finally found a bunch of supplies, but we can't get them. It's really useless. I didn't expect that in your eyes, we are so good. We..." The man was so excited that he was about to cry.
The little friend walked away silently. It was really hard to feel pity for the sturdy black man when he cried. For some reason, I wanted to laugh and felt a little disgusted.
Fortunately, the man calmed down and took a deep breath. "Thank you for thinking highly of us. It proves that we are not really useless. These things are yours because you got them with your own ability. We can't take them. It's unreasonable and shameless. If you didn't take action at that time, we wouldn't have gotten them and might even have lost our lives. We should thank you. Really, take the things back. Yours are definitely enough."
The six brothers followed Sa Bing and nodded repeatedly with a sincere attitude. They were all loyal and honest men.
Lan Shiruo curled her lips and said, "It's okay. We don't need these things. Take them. Just consider it a favor between friends."
"No, no, no, we can't ask for it even if we're friends. You've already helped us a lot, and we can't just keep asking for more. That's not treating you as friends, it's treating you as cash cows. Absolutely not. We absolutely can't accept it."
Sa Bing was very serious and there was no room for compromise on this matter.
"Didn't you just help us? We're all helping each other. You can't be accused of just asking for things."
"We know you're good people. Even though we're not smart, we know in our hearts that you could have easily won without us. We really can't accept this. If you keep talking, we'll have to leave immediately. We're too embarrassed to stay."
Lan Shiruo smiled and said, "Okay, since you insist, I'll keep the things. By the way, have you always been just a few brothers together? Have you ever teamed up with others?"
Sa Bing rubbed the back of his head and smiled, "Yes, but some of them think we are stupid and inflexible and don't want us. Some of them treat us like animals. Many times, our brothers were almost killed, so they left on their own."
"Oh? Then you've never thought about finding another team, or forming your own?"
Sa Bing shook his head. "I don't dare to look for someone randomly anymore. I'm afraid my brothers won't always be lucky. Forming a team on our own is even worse. With our brains, taking people with us would only lead to our deaths. It's better not to cause trouble to others."
The little friend laughed and said that his self-understanding was very comprehensive, objective and accurate.
Lan Shiruo got to the point, "Would you consider joining us? Don't worry, the problems you're worried about won't happen here. Once you join, we'll all be a family, supporting each other and overcoming difficulties together. Of course, if you really don't want to, we're still friends. We can sit together and chat and have a drink when we meet."
The seven brothers were overjoyed, "We can really join, but we are stupid."
"You are not stupid, you are honest. If you are willing, we welcome you."
"We're willing, we're all willing. Really, although we don't have brains, we have plenty of strength and can do anything." They are not worried that the big team will treat them as cannon fodder like the team before. How can those who would rather return supplies that are completely unnecessary to return be bad people?
Haha, my friend, it’s too naive to think this way. Your self-perception is correct, and it’s a miracle that you are still alive today.
"Welcome." Lan Shiruo said.
The little friends welcomed them one by one, and the seven brothers all smiled foolishly and felt embarrassed.
These seven people are also interesting. They all have the ability to evolve strength. No wonder they are said to have plenty of strength, and no wonder they are used as cannon fodder.
Lan Shiruo asked, "Are you here to look for the old professor?"
Sa Bing nodded. "Yes, a few of us wanted to go back to our hometown to find our relatives. We needed to support ourselves along the way and happened to come across this mission. It's not only convenient, but the pay is also generous. If we get the reward, if we can successfully return home and find our families, we won't have to worry about providing for ourselves. But we didn't expect so many people to compete. It seems hopeless."
"Where is your hometown?"
"In the mountains under the jurisdiction of City F."
City F, friends, look at the live map.
Lu Huli raised his glasses. "F City is a border town in Qinzhou. It's nestled in the mountains, stretching for thousands of miles. Many ethnic minorities live scattered deep within the mountains. It's a famous ethnic minority city in Qinzhou. We'll pass by it on our way to Shicheng. F City and D City are adjacent."
"That's perfect. I can go pick up your family directly then."
The seven brothers were so moved that they burst into tears. Lan Shiruo waved her hand and said, "First, tell me what you know. Find it as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible."
Sa Bing calmed himself down and said, "We were among the first group of people to arrive here. Everyone said that if the old professor was still here, the most likely place he would be was the Central Hospital. Before the safe zone was destroyed, the old professor and his team were conducting research in the Central Hospital's secret laboratory. However, no one knows where the so-called secret laboratory is. Everyone has searched everywhere in the Central Hospital, even digging deep underground, but there is no trace of it. The most terrifying thing is that there are nearly ten thousand rotting corpses imprisoned in the Central Hospital. Everyone is terrified when they go there, afraid of irritating them. If they really break out, everyone in the entire city and even the suburbs will be trapped. So gradually, fewer people go there, and they all look elsewhere. If the old professor and his team are really in the hospital, they may not survive."
