"That's right! He's just an ordinary survivor who relies on other people's abilities. He even wants to do that kind of thing to Sister Xuefei. We can't let that kind of person form a group with us!" Li Wenxi also agreed with Xu Xin's statement.
"This matter involves another person. Let's talk about it later." Xu Xin stopped, after all, there was another person next to him.
He pointed at the silent woman on the ground and said, "This is..."
The woman sitting against the roots of the tree looked up at them.
She was wearing a green-level leather armor set and looked like an ordinary survivor. She didn't participate in their conversation, but just kept staring at Coco. She even wanted to reach out and touch Coco, but Coco turned away. Then she kept staring at Coco.
"The survivor in the tree house to the east is an ordinary survivor. Her tree house doesn't have a heavy crossbow or armor. I just fired a few explosive crossbow bolts at her, and she surrendered." Ji Chaoyang glanced at the woman sitting on the ground. "I talked to her, and she said she was willing to rely on Qi Xuefei."
As he spoke, he took out a tree house seed and a tree house core from his backpack and handed them to Qi Xuefei: "These are all yours, and this person is also yours."
Seeing that several people started discussing her, the woman stood up and looked at Qi Xuefei and Li Wenxi. Finally, her eyes locked on Qi Xuefei, who was holding her tree house seed and core, with a very nervous expression.
"Um...I..." She rubbed the hem of her clothes gently with her hands, "Hello, I..."
Seeing the woman so reserved, Qi Xuefei walked forward and hugged her gently: "Well, since you are here, you are my companion. I will go and plant your tree house first."
Qi Xuefei's actions made Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang both frown.
Even though her tree house has been dug up and she can only rely on others to survive, isn't this too defenseless?
What if this woman took away his seed and core?
However, Qi Xuefei's behavior made the woman's expression relax and less nervous. She nodded and said, "Okay, then I will follow you from now on."
"Sister, what's your name?" Li Wenxi also came forward, making Xu Xin's eyelids twitch.
These two people, when they see someone of the same sex as their age, are defenseless, right?
After all, this woman was from District 187 before, and her life was saved by their District 187 boss Zhang Daoguang. What if something happened to her? Why did they treat her as one of their own?
Xu Xin's approach to people from outside the district had always been to force them to work, distributing resources according to their work, and not working, or getting any resources. At least that was how it should be at the beginning. We had to observe for a while before making any decisions, right?
However, seeing that the three people were talking happily, he didn't say anything.
...Forget it, let them be. As long as the tree house is planted, the lives of the people on the other side will be controlled by the owner of the main tree house, and they won't be able to cause any trouble.
The first person to be captured was very lucky and could be considered a veteran captive. As more captives were captured later, they naturally would not receive such good treatment.
"Then I'll go plant these two tree house seeds first. Do you want to go up first?" Qi Xuefei turned to Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang and said.
"No need. The parasitic tree house grows very fast. You guys go ahead and we'll wait here."
"Okay." Qi Xuefei took the woman away.
"Then I'll go too!" Li Wenxi hurriedly followed.
The two took the woman to plant the tree house.
Xu Xin also heard Qi Xuefei asking the woman for her opinion, asking her where she wanted to plant it.
Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang looked at each other and both shook their heads helplessly.
"Is it safe?" Xu Xin asked. He was a little worried that there was something wrong with the woman.
"No, all her weapons and tools are with me," Ji Chaoyang pointed to his backpack, "Besides, I also went into her tree house to check and took a look at her. She is indeed an ordinary survivor. Even if there is a problem, the two of them can solve it themselves. There is no need to worry."
Xu Xin looked at where the three women were walking away. They were pointing at a piece of land and discussing something.
"Do they have to be planted so close?" Xu Xin said to himself.
"It would be better if the parasitic tree house was located closer to the main tree house so that it would be easier to manage." Ji Chaoyang also looked over there.
The parasitic tree house can actually be located quite far away from the main tree house, as long as it is within a protected area.
Just like Xu Xin’s current protected area is nine kilometers in radius, all parasitic tree houses planted within nine kilometers will parasitize his main tree house.
but……
"Protected areas can overlap. What do you think would happen if we planted parasitic tree houses at locations where protected areas overlap?" Xu Xin suddenly thought of this.
The overlapping location of the protected areas can be understood as the location where the roots of the two tree houses are entangled, so it is hard to say which tree house the parasitic tree house will parasitize on.
"This..." Ji Chaoyang frowned and thought for a while, "It's really hard to explain. I've thought about this before. Maybe it will parasitize the treehouse of the stronger one? But generally speaking, no one would plant a parasitic treehouse that far away, right?"
The overlapping locations of the protected areas are basically five or six kilometers away from the main tree house. For the current survivors, five or six kilometers is still a bit far.
As for the further expansion of the protected area in the future, that is a matter for the future.
Xu Xin shook his head and decided not to think about it for the time being.
While they were still there, he told Ji Chaoyang what had happened to him and Li Wenxi.
When talking about Ma Hongyu, he first frowned slightly, and then gradually showed a look of surprise.
Speaking of Ma Hongwei, his eyes seemed to burst into a gleam, and he grabbed Xu Xin's arm: "Are you saying that Ma Hongwei has the ability to control all the external weapons of the tree house?"
