Chapter 66
The next day, while Ye Qing's team was moving south, a caravan of more than a dozen people drove their horse-drawn carriages in an orderly manner towards the north.
The horses pulling the carts have mutated. They are huge, strong and powerful, but what is amazing is that these mutated horses do not show any signs of attacking humans. They even obediently listen to humans' orders and pull carts that are several times larger than their bodies.
The leading car was particularly spacious. On the stools in the front were two young men, who were of similar age and had very similar facial features.
One of the girls pinched two fingers and blew a loud whistle towards the sky. As soon as the whistle blew, an eagle circling in the sky swooped down, slowed down and landed steadily on the girl's shoulder.
The girl nodded the eagle's head and said "naughty", then took out a few dried fish from the cloth bag behind her and fed them to the eagle.
The eagle had a pair of bright eyes that emitted an inexplicable and strange light, as if it had also mutated. After it "crunched" and gnawed on two small dried fishes, it tilted its furry head and rubbed the girl's cheek.
The feather rubbed against her face and it was a little itchy. The girl couldn't help but giggle and said lovingly, "You still want to eat? Don't worry, I'll get it for you."
However, before she could put her hand into the bag, the boy next to her slapped her hard. He glanced at the eagle on the girl's shoulder, which was looking at him proudly with its head held high, and said with displeasure: "Sister, can you please stop pampering it? We only have so little food, and this hairy beast has eaten most of it, and we haven't even walked a few miles."
The eagle seemed to understand what the boy said, and it screamed and opened its sharp claws to scratch the boy's face.
Fortunately, the girl was quick to stop it. She touched the eagle's head and comforted it gently: "Little Eagle, brother is doing this for your own good. When we go out, it's not like being at home. We still have to be frugal with everything."
As soon as the girl said this, the eagle immediately put away its attacking posture and behaved like a weak pet. It chirped for a while and then flew back into the sky and disappeared.
The boy at the side had been staring at the two-faced eagle with disdain. When he saw it leave, he snorted in disdain: "You trained a furry beast that is useless. It can only eat. Unlike my BMW, it can pull a cart and carry goods without any problem."
As if in response to him, the black horse pulling the cart in front raised its front legs and shouted happily towards the sky.
The girl turned around and pretended to be serious: "Oh? My little eagle just got the news, and from what you said, it seems like you don't want to know~"
The boy immediately grinned and said apologetically, "My dear sister, I was just talking nonsense. The one in your family is the best. Although she eats a lot, she always comes into play at the critical moment."
The girl crossed her arms and snorted proudly.
The boy grabbed the girl's arm and shook it: "Brother is wrong, sister, just tell me."
Regarding this mission, the girl did not take it too seriously and told her twin brother everything the mutant eagle saw.
"Is this eagle seeing things right? Is this the kind of car we get in the city? Or is it a brand new one?" the boy asked doubtfully.
"Of course it's true! How could I possibly lie to you? My little eagle would never lie to me. They're in our upper left corner, heading south, very fast."
The brother and sister were born on the same day and have been fighting since they were born. Every day they play tricks on each other and argue with each other, but they take their tasks very seriously. Coupled with the tacit understanding between twins, they complete every task perfectly.
The boy held his chin in his hand and thought for a moment, then discussed with his sister, "We're heading north this time to explore other surviving shelters and to sell this batch of goods. We don't know anything about the north, so why not... meet them?"
The girl nodded and replied, "I think so too. Anyone who can afford such a valuable car must be either rich or noble. We can go and get some information and maybe even exchange it for some supplies!"
At this point, the boy was full of confidence: "Haha~ Of course it can be done. This batch of ours is the first batch of zero-pollution food cultivated by specialized psychics for a long time. I bet they have never seen it before!"
After hearing what her brother said, the girl was full of confidence and was already thinking about what materials she would trade later.
Ye Qing did not have the mutant eagle's detection, so he knew nothing about the situation on their side.
The two teams would have missed each other if they had followed their original route, but the twin brother and sister had checked the road conditions ahead and deliberately changed their direction.
Half an hour later, the two teams met, and as if to test each other, no one got off the bus first.
The twin brother and sister looked at each other, staring at the two perfect carriages opposite them, which were twice as big as their carriages. They were silent for a while.
The mutant eagle could only babble about what it saw, but it couldn't convey what it saw.
Eagle told them that the two cars were new, but he didn't expect them to be so new!
The car's color is very beautiful, emitting a fatally attractive light in the sun. It has smooth lines, exquisite design, and a mirror-like paint finish. The materials used are obviously very expensive and rare, making people fall in love with it at first sight.
After the radiation, many spare parts in the car factory were corroded, and those that could be used on the ground had to undergo special treatment. The cars in their factory had already been broken into pieces, but their big brother still treasured them as treasures and was reluctant to even grant them this mission.
But the other side used such an expensive thing without protection, which is simply a waste of resources!
In comparison, the twin brother and sister had a new understanding of each other's strength. In order not to show their weakness, they remained silent.
Ye Qing's RV was set to automatic following mode. As soon as Tu Ping's bus stopped, the following mode ended automatically. She noticed something unusual and looked up from the book. She walked to the driver's seat and looked at the scene opposite through the car window.
Tu Ping happened to notice Ye Qing's actions. After receiving a hint from Ye Qing, he opened the bus window, stuck his head out, and said hello to the person on the other side: "Who is this person? Which shelter are you from? Where are you going this time?"
The boy shielded his sister behind him and introduced himself loudly: "Hello, brother, we are from Zhucheng in the south and are going to the north to do some business."
Tu Ping's eyes lit up, he opened the bus door and walked down, standing in front of the caravan carriage like a mountain, and bowed: "We are from the central region, and we are also here in the south to discuss business. Why don't you sit in our car and have a good chat, just like making a new friend?"
Tu Ping is a big guy with a rough and powerful voice. At first glance, he doesn't look like a good guy. He got out of the car unexpectedly and stood in front of the carriage, like a brutal robber on a robbing spree.
The boy hesitated for a while and was about to go down, but his sister pulled him and looked worried.
He smiled and pretended to be relaxed: "Don't worry, I think he is just a high-level one. Your brother also happens to be a high-level one. We are quite strong and can't afford to lose. Add to that my several batches of mutant wild horses, and I don't think they can do anything to me."
"Then I'll go with you."
Looking at his sister's determined eyes, the boy had no choice but to agree, but he was planning to push his sister away immediately if there was any danger.
When the twins came down, Tu Ping grinned and extended his hand to guide them: "Please."
Tu Ping is tall and has a big mouth. When he opens his mouth, his full set of silver teeth are exposed, shining in the sunlight.
The girl couldn't help but shudder, thinking that he wouldn't eat children.
The boy noticed his sister's worry and pushed her out: "Why don't you wait for me in the carriage?"
The girl took a step forward to be parallel to him and said stubbornly, "No, I'm going to accompany you if I say so. Otherwise, my brother will definitely laugh at me when I go back."
The boy choked, feeling as if he had been slapped in the face. Thinking of all the times he had mercilessly ridiculed his sister, he scratched his head a little uncomfortably: "Okay, if you want to follow me, then follow me. But don't let yourself be bullied and then tell big brother about me."
Tu Ping's personality was as thick as a steel pipe. He was completely unaware of the two siblings' fear of him and excitedly led the way.
"Hey, aren't we going to that car?"
It’s no wonder the boys were confused. Tu Ping got off the bus, but took them to another white car.
Tu Ping replied, "This is our boss's private car. It's very spacious inside. She said she would bring guests here."
The two siblings looked at each other and thought to themselves that this high-level psychic was not even the most powerful in the team. There was actually an even more powerful one hiding in this car. They were probably going to suffer a loss this time.
The two men were worried and their eyes were looking around. They had already planned their escape route in their minds. They followed Tu Ping slowly into the RV, but when they saw the young girl in the car, they were dumbfounded.
Could this be their boss? He's so young, and his smile is so gentle. He and that big man don't look like the same kind of person!
And there are so many treasures in this car! A dining table, a sofa, a small kitchen, and even two beds! It would be so comfortable to sleep in here while on a mission.
Tu Ping said: "Boss, I've brought the person here."
Ye Qing: "Well, okay, go to the refrigerator and get some fruit to entertain the guests."
After receiving the order, Tu Ping went back to wash the fruit happily.
Seeing these two similar-looking siblings still standing at the door, Ye Qing couldn't help but say, "Come and sit down!"
The two siblings finally came back to their senses from their shock and walked over to sit down together.
It just so happened that Tu Ping had washed a plate of fruit and brought it to the table.
Seeing that they were staring at him, Ye Qing raised his hand and said, "Come on, let's eat and talk!"
The two siblings hadn't blinked since they sat down, and when they saw the plate of food on the table, they were so stunned that they were speechless.
Not only is there such a rare car, but there is also food that has never been seen before. The plate of red fruits on the left looks like they were just picked not long ago. The colors are bright and they emit an inexplicable fragrance.
The purple one in the middle was something I had never seen before. A large bunch of them were placed in the middle of the plate. They had just been washed and the water droplets had not yet dissipated, leaving them on the surface of the peel, making them very delicate and translucent.
Just one look and the two siblings couldn't help but drool, but they both held back and didn't move their hands.
Ye Qing took a look, took a cherry and a grape and put them in his mouth, and invited again: "You're welcome, there are still a lot of food, everyone, please eat."
In the first few days after the fruits were available, Tu Ping ate a lot of them in the shelter. He would have a bowl of fruit as a snack after every meal, but this time he only tasted a few of them.
Seeing this, the two siblings' worries disappeared by a large margin, and they could no longer suppress the impulse in their hearts and reached out their hands.
The first thing the girl took was the grape. She imitated Ye Qing and threw the whole grape into her mouth. After taking a bite, the sweet juice instantly burst in her mouth.
Its flesh is tender and smooth, juicy, smooth in texture, and sweet but not greasy.
The girl's eyes lit up as soon as she touched it, and then she kept reaching out to take it as if she was controlled, and the boy did the same.
After they had eaten most of the fruit on the table and were half full, they realized that something was wrong.
They... actually ate so much other people's food in front of strangers without any restraint. This is so rude!
The brother and sister suppressed their hands that were about to be stretched out, slowly turned their heads, and spoke silently to the people around them at an angle that Ye Qing could not see.
The girl bared her teeth at her brother and said, "Why didn't you stop me?"
The boy's face flushed slightly, but his attitude was very stubborn: "How can I stop you? You are eating so happily. Go and apologize to them!"
The girl said shyly: "You, you are the older brother, so you should go first~"
