Tang Weiwei frowned slightly, seemingly not liking the nickname "Old Tang".
"Just call me David, I'm not that much older than you."
“Alright. David… let’s stick to what we agreed on last night.”
Tang Weiwei nodded in agreement.
Ye Feng turned to look at Qi Xiaoyan, his tone stern.
"We'll be heading to their camp soon. You guys just need to focus on recovering from your injuries. Dawei and Zhan Pengwu will protect you."
Also, stop crying and wailing. You'll cry yourself to death even if the person isn't dead yet. It's bad luck.
"Quickly wash the blood off your face, or you'll attract a lot of wild animals and insects."
"Um."
Qi Xiaoyan knew Ye Feng was right, so she responded and went to wash her face with Liu Sisi's help.
Just as Ye Feng was about to pack his things, Zhan Pengwu on the platform suddenly called out to him.
"Feng...Brother Feng."
He struggled forward a few times, his expression showing some pain, suggesting that the wound on his chest was still very painful.
Despite his pale face, he managed to force a longing smile.
"Do you have any more snakes? I'd like to eat stir-fried snake meat too."
Ye Feng smiled helplessly. These three people seemed to be starving ghosts reincarnated, with only one thought in mind: to eat.
But what Ye Feng didn't know was that the wilderness delicacies he created were considered top-notch meals by others.
Just as Chinese people feeding pigs with fresh watermelons is seen as a waste of resources by South Koreans.
Because they simply can't afford it...
"Your two older brothers ate that snake last night, but don't worry."
I've heard everything. It's all thanks to you stalling for time, otherwise my brothers and sisters would definitely be doomed.
"Take good care of yourself and recover. There will be plenty of wild game later, and plenty of things even more delicious than stir-fried snake meat."
"Okay, okay. Hehe..."
Zhan Pengfei scratched the back of his head, grinning foolishly.
Around 9 a.m.
After preparing medicine for everyone and checking their injuries, the group of eight began their journey.
Fu Changxiong carried the unconscious Qi Xiaojie on his back, while the others each took a portion of the supplies, and the weight was manageable.
Ye Feng had already decided last night that before getting the weapons today, he would send all the wounded to Tang Weiwei's camp.
Even though there are less than two kilometers left, the wounds of everyone will definitely get infected if they travel for a long time.
If it gets worse, it will be difficult to handle.
The group arrived at Tang Weiwei's temporary camp in less than half an hour.
Yesterday evening, the two of them were about to go out to find something to eat when they discovered the situation here.
In my haste, I didn't bring my backpack with me.
During this time, they never gave up searching for Zhan Pengfei.
Ye Feng was very pleased, as this showed that the other party was not a heartless person.
At least for now, he hasn't found anything wrong with the character of these two people.
The two campsites were about a kilometer away, contrary to the route Ye Feng wanted to take.
Along the way, Ye Feng subtly inquired about the two's situation.
After all, we'll be partners from now on, so it's always good to know more about each other.
You might be able to tell a person's character and personality from their conversation.
The group walked and talked, discussing why they came here and their experiences there.
Tang Weiwei still had a cold and aloof expression, like someone with a blank face, and rarely smiled.
When Ye Feng asked him why he came here, his expression became even more unpleasant.
"I came here only because of the money; my family has been selling seafood for three generations."
As a result, in my generation, two people died from eating seafood, and we almost lost all the land, houses, and businesses left by our ancestors.
These are all my family's ancestral property. If I don't pay compensation, they'll forcibly mortgage and auction them off, and I might even end up in jail.
I need money to save them!
Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, and suddenly remembered a news article he had once seen on his phone.
"Oh, is it the seafood poisoning incident in Foshan that resulted in 2 deaths and 5 injuries, including a pregnant woman who died?"
"That's right. It'll cost over 6 million in compensation."
Tang Weiwei reluctantly admitted it.
"What!?"
Everyone was taken aback. In 2060, although prices had risen, two lives and several injured people...
6 million is indeed a bit of an exaggeration.
"Are you being scammed? Even if a pregnant woman died, three lives wouldn't be worth 6 million."
Besides, seafood... it's not exactly considered intentional murder, so there's no way they could pay that much in compensation.
Ye Feng was very confused and asked in bewilderment…
"I don't understand it either!"
Tang Weiwei's voice was filled with resentment, as if she had been framed.
"But I'm so unlucky! That stupid woman is pregnant with triplets, she's over four months along, and the babies are already formed."
When I was buying seafood, my employee didn't intend to sell it to her and even advised her that pregnant women shouldn't eat seafood.
But that stupid woman insisted that she wasn't eating it herself, and that she bought it for her husband.
As a result, she gained several pounds as soon as she got back, and ended up being poisoned. She couldn't be saved, and they all died.
"Oh~"
Ye Feng nodded in sudden realization. According to Chinese law, once the baby was fully formed, it would definitely be considered four lives lost.
"It is indeed quite rare for people in coastal areas to suffer from seafood poisoning, and they are really unlucky."
"Ha ha!"
Zhan Pengwu suddenly laughed and picked up the conversation.
"He wasn't just unlucky; the seafood he sold was mutated, specifically from nuclear wastewater."
"Fuck the mother of the Zhipan people!"
Before Ye Feng could figure it out, Tang Weiwei suddenly flew into a rage.
"The seafood in my house has always been fine. It's just that starting this year, the crabs, lobsters, and sea fish have all been acting up."
We only found out after testing that the mutation was caused by wastewater from Zhipan Drainage, and it must have flowed into our area this year.
Those damned Zanpakuto, I better not run into them in the game, or I'll chop them into pieces!
Ye Feng almost laughed. Wasn't this perfect? Watanabe, that bastard, was still wandering around outside.
“David, you’re very lucky. I happen to know a Zhipan person.”
He was not far from my camp, but I don't know where he is now.
If we happen to run into it then, I'll leave it to you.
Tang Weiwei stopped abruptly, nodding forcefully with an angry expression.
"Excellent! I'll kill every single one of these Zhipan dogs I see."
Ye Feng then looked at Zhan Pengwu.
"And you? I heard from your brother that you're a mixed martial arts athlete, with over ten knockouts, and you're about to make your official debut in the UFC. You're definitely a future superstar."
"They might even represent their country in future competitions, so why would they voluntarily participate in this game?"
"well……"
Zhan Pengwu's smile vanished instantly, and he let out a long sigh, seemingly feeling even more wronged than Tang Weiwei.
