At this time, Lu Hao also walked back from the other side of the street corner. When he saw that there were some people gathered where Su Jin and Lu Guanhai were standing in front of him, and there were two people in the middle arguing about something, he couldn't help but speed up.
The middle-aged man and the short-haired man were still blaming each other, but Su Jin also understood some things about the base from their words.
"What's wrong?"
Lu Hao walked over with a frown on his face, and was relieved when he saw that the people were just standing on the side of the road and nothing was seriously wrong.
Lu Guanhai told Lu Hao what had just happened. In short, the middle-aged man seemed to be standing up for them.
"It's like this. The F City base has stopped selling ordinary crystal cores for two months. Whether it's for food or trading supplies, they all use mutant crystal cores. There are currently no private shops or trading locations in the base. Survivors can only buy supplies through official transactions at the base."
Lu Hao explained to the few people in a low voice.
So ordinary crystal cores are completely useless in the F City base?
No wonder the middle-aged man came forward to remind us, he is such a kind person.
At this time, the people around also started pointing and talking. Seeing that he had no chance of winning, the guy with the flat head said "Puh" and turned and ran away.
"Thank you"
Su Jin said to the middle-aged man.
"You're welcome. My name is Wu Xingye. I just happened to pass by. That scoundrel often comes out to cheat newcomers. Some newcomers don't know that the base can't use mutant crystal cores, so they exchange a lot of ordinary crystal cores from him. In the end, those crystal cores can't even buy a meal. Isn't it infuriating?"
Wu Xingye's sense of justice made Lu Guanhai quite fond of him.
"Hey man, is buying and selling supplies prohibited in this base? We are new here, and we haven't even found a store after walking for a long time."
Lu Guanhai asked.
Wu Xingye looked at Lu Guanhai as if he had seen something new. "Of course the buying and selling of supplies is free, but who has supplies to sell now? Only the base still has some supplies, but they can only be traded for mutant crystal cores."
Su Jin began to understand a little, but this base was new in that it only accepted mutant crystal cores.
That being said, they can definitely sell supplies here.
"So if we have friends who want to come to this base to sell supplies, what do you think?"
Lu Hao simply said it straight out. He was always good at judging people, and this Wu Xingye didn't seem like a cunning and cunning person.
After hearing this, Wu Xingye's originally calm eyes immediately flashed with a sharp light.
"Does your friend have any supplies to sell?"
Wu Xingye walked up to the group and asked in a low voice.
Seeing Lu Hao nod, Wu Xingye directly invited several people to go to their team for a detailed discussion.
"To be honest, our Zhenwu Sect is the largest group of superpowers in this base. If your friend has supplies to sell, I want him to sell them to us first. The price is not a problem."
Wu Xingye wanted to express his sincerity, but at the moment his greatest sincerity was to state his wishes so bluntly.
Seeing that several people were hesitating, he thought that they were worried about safety and wanted to make more guarantees, but Lu Hao actually agreed directly.
"That's refreshing, that's refreshing, hahahaha, I'll make friends with you!"
Wu Xingye hadn't seen people as decisive as these people in front of him for a long time, which was why he wanted to help them just now.
Su Jin and his companions really didn't expect that the team Wu Xingye mentioned actually had so many people, and they completely occupied a corner of the base. The left and right sides of the road were all the sphere of influence of the "Zhenwu Sect" that Wu Xingye mentioned.
"Brother Wu, how many team members are there?"
Lu Guanhai couldn't help but ask.
"Not many, not many, only about 600 to 700 people."
Wu Xingye introduced as he walked, and people came up to him from both sides of the road from time to time to greet him. It seemed that he should also be a senior figure in the team.
It was not until Wu Xingye walked into a courtyard that he saw several young men practicing Chinese Kung Fu one-on-one, looking very professional.
"If Liao Yifan saw this, he would definitely come to compete again."
Lu Guanhai said.
When they saw Wu Xingye coming in, several young men stopped and respectfully called him "Teacher".
"Hahaha, these are the students from our team who came to learn Kung Fu from me. Let's go inside."
Wu Xingye introduced them to the three of them.
The decorations in the main hall of the courtyard are also very simple and ancient. On one wall there are even some swords, spears, sticks and other weapons hanging, which gives the feeling of a martial arts family.
"Hey, Teacher Wu, is this a guest?"
A young woman holding a piece of cloth walked in and asked in surprise.
"It's a guest, go make tea quickly."
"Okay!"
The young woman looked very happy. She smiled sweetly at Su Jin and the others and ran out.
From their conversation with Wu Xingye, the three of them also learned a lot about the "Zhenwu Sect".
The Zhenwu Sect was founded by Wu Xingye before the end of the world. The place where they are now was originally the martial arts hall of the Zhenwu Sect. However, after the devastation of the end of the world, many students of the original Zhenwu Sect turned into zombies or died tragically at the mouths of zombies. Fortunately, there are still some students left, and they also kept the Zhenwu Sect going in this base in the end of the world.
Wu Xingye has no children, but he took in many people with special abilities and ordinary people who had nowhere to go in the apocalypse. Slowly, the Zhenwu Sect grew stronger under the leadership of Wu Xingye's several senior disciples, and was even feared by the current base commander.
However, the Zhenwu Sect, despite its large population, has always been facing a major problem, which is the lack of supplies.
Now, to purchase supplies in the base, one must use mutant crystal cores. This may not sound like a big deal, but it directly affects the overall strength and number of the psychics in the entire base.
At this time, the young woman who had just come over also brought a tea tray and poured a full cup of hot tea for Su Jin and the others.
"Without mutant crystal cores to assist with advancement and absorption, the psychics' power levels have stagnated overall, while the zombie levels outside the base are getting higher and higher. This is a vicious cycle. I don't know why that Liu guy made such a crappy rule. The key is that he has collected so many mutant crystal cores, but he hasn't trained a single expert in the base."
Wu Xingye took a sip of tea and calmed his increasingly angry tone.
However, the supplies were in Liu Jianyuan's hands, and they could only exchange them for high-priced mutant crystal cores according to regulations.
Now, every day, several apprentices take their teammates out to hunt for mutant crystal cores, and basically all the mutant crystal cores they hunt are exchanged for supplies.
They were still able to survive these days, but the period during the blizzard was the most difficult time for them. Because there were no mutant crystal cores, many people in the base chose to commit suicide in despair. People in their Zhenwu Sect kept getting sick and dying. If it weren't for a few steady disciples stopping him, he would have wanted to rob the base of supplies.
