Zhang Mu patted Wang Liang on the shoulder and said, "Find someone to settle your sister-in-law and the child. I will go with you to meet the second-ranked Jiyuan agent."
Wang Liang subconsciously followed Zhang Mu's instructions, and he realized that Zhang Mu's tone could not be questioned again. He looked at Lin Cong beside him and said, "A Cong, take my sister-in-law and the child to Brother Mu's previous yard. For food, use the best food in the current gathering place."
After that, Wang Liang looked at Zhang Mu with an apologetic look on his face and said, "Brother Mu, your yard has always been cleaned by someone, but the food here is really not good. Even the best is just a thicker vegetable porridge. If you are too full, you can upgrade it to vegetable rice."
"It's okay, you're thoughtful." Zhang Mu nodded slightly, smiled and said, "How many people want to eat vegetables but can't. Look at you, you're such a picky eater. I didn't see any fresh vegetables outside."
Seeing Wang Liang's bitter expression, Zhang Mu laughed. He also knew that what Wang Liang said was the truth.
Wang Liang doesn’t have meat, but he does!
He raised his right hand, and the Epoch Merchant Ring flashed. Several well-preserved mutant beast corpses fell to the ground with a bang. Each of them was a large portion of meat weighing several tons.
The eyes of the evolvers around them were all glowing green, and many of them were already secretly swallowing their saliva. Zhang Mu looked at Lin Cong and said, "Brother Lin Cong, just make them a meal. Just follow what Chief Wang Liang said just now, the vegetable porridge. They ate too much greasy food on the road, so they need to eat something light to adjust their stomachs.
As for the meat, it is for everyone to satisfy their cravings. It is just an appetizer. Everyone present can have a share. As for the other people in the gathering place, it will be distributed after I and Chief Wang Liang come back. "Lin Cong still couldn't believe the fact that there was a mountain of mutant beast meat in front of him, and Zhang Mu meant that it was all for them. He was about to refuse, but when he met Zhang Mu's eyes, he swallowed his words back.
Zhang Mu's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear. The same thought popped into everyone's mind: they were really going to get to eat meat.
There was a time long ago when they were still able to hunt the mutant beasts scattered outside the city, and they harvested a lot just from the selection of the city guards, but when it was distributed to everyone in the gathering place, it would not last more than a few days.
Moreover, the beasts behind them became alert immediately after discovering their companions were missing. No mutant beast would act alone again, and they would no longer give the humans in the city any chance to take advantage of them.
After those who left the city never came back, no one wanted to go out anymore. They would rather just fill their stomachs with rice every day.
It’s better to eat worse than to be eaten.
Zhang Mu whispered in Yuan Rui's ear, "Wait here for me to come back. You should be almost done with your meal. It will be quick."
Yuan Rui naturally believed in Zhang Mu's ability, so she picked up Haohao and followed Lin Cong to where they had lived before. She herself had an impression of it, but Lin Cong had received the order and insisted on taking her there, so there was nothing she could do.
Among the remaining people, with Wang Liang's tacit approval, more than a dozen burly men came out and rubbed their hands. They barely carried the heavy mutant beast corpse that Zhang Mu threw out, and couldn't wait to transport it to the kitchen.
Now, they can wolf down food in a big pot, not to mention whether it is delicious or not. The days of eating porridge every day were too hard to endure. With Zhang Mu's arrival, the hard days finally came to an end.
In this regard, the Evolvers and ordinary people in Shanxi City were relatively fortunate. Long Qi found the meat stored in the underground ice storage as soon as possible and used ice-type Evolvers to cool it in turns.
Here, even if you search the entire Luoyang City, you may not be able to find an ice-type evolver with two hands, not to mention that even if you find an ice storage now, the things stored in it should have rotted.
Zhang Mu patted Wang Liang on the shoulder and said as they walked, "Come with me there and settle the matter. Then we can come back and have a meal of ready-made meat."
Wang Liang followed Zhang Mu and walked straight to the block where the Jiyuan Store was located, his eyes still full of confusion.
Although Zhang Mu is very powerful and can fight against many people at once, even dozens of people, no matter how powerful he is, can he withstand the simultaneous attacks of hundreds or thousands of people?
Wang Liang was actually not very confident about his idea of protecting Zhang Mu from entering the Epoch Store, because Luoyang City was not big, and the position where the Second was located was heavily guarded. All the evolvers in the outer city forces could be mobilized at any time, including their leaders, who were now also secretly obeying the Second's orders.
"The area ahead is forbidden! Both of you, stop right there!"
Sure enough, when we got to the block near the Jiyuan Store, security became tighter.
Especially when they saw the leader of the hostile force appear, accompanied by a stranger who had never appeared before, the evolver behind the barbed wire immediately ordered Zhang Mu and the others to stop.
How could Zhang Mu pay attention to the threat of a small minion? He just kept walking forward with his head down at a steady pace. Seeing that Zhang Mu didn't say anything, Wang Liang also kept silent because he didn't know what the point of Zhang Mu bringing him here was.
I hope that if it doesn't work out, the next time will give me some face. I shouldn't tell him the truth so early.
Yes, but Brother Mu doesn’t seem like an impulsive person. Never mind, let’s take it one step at a time.
Just when Wang Liang was preparing for the worst, the evolver behind the wire started to speak in a hostile tone, "Chief Wang Liang, we are no longer on the same side, so please don't make things difficult for me."
Wang Liang then noticed the man who was talking to him, and whispered to Zhang Mu, "Brother Mu, he is one of the five gathering places that the old city had defected to that I mentioned to you before."
Zhang Mu raised his eyebrows but still didn't look up. He walked while slowly clapping his hands, in a clear and loud voice.
The Evolver couldn't see Zhang Mu's face clearly, but he could clearly see the mockery and disdain in his actions. Seeing that neither Wang Liang nor Zhang Mu responded to him, he laughed coldly, "Why, I haven't seen you before, new here? It seems that you are unlucky and have no foresight to find a half-dead person as your backer."
After saying this, Zhang Mu and his men were still about fifty meters away from the barbed wire. The man changed his tone and continued, "I, Huang Liang, have received orders not to let anyone approach here without permission. If you get any closer, don't blame me for not considering our past friendship. I can't do anything if I hurt you two. My great leader Wang Liang, you must think clearly about what the consequences of going against our boss are now."
After hearing this, Zhang Mu became slightly interested and looked up at the evolver who was still talking nonsense.
However, this one glance completely silenced this boastful evolver, as if someone had strangled him alive and he could no longer speak. It was obvious that he had recognized Zhang Mu's identity.
And he will never forget Zhang Mu in his life. His boss was a troublemaker among troublemakers whom Zhang Mu met during a deal. He was sucked dry by Zhang Mu using the Blood Vine Lotus. He survived because he did not take any action, but Huang Liang, who witnessed the whole process, was left with a huge shadow in his heart.
Zhang Mu and his companion walked to the front of the barbed wire in the blink of an eye, gently pushed aside the iron fence blocking the road, and continued to move forward, as if they did not notice the existence of these dozens of people.
Without Huang Liang's order and with Wang Liang present, the rest of the people did not dare to act rashly.
After a long time, an Evolver looked at Huang Liang hesitantly, and finally couldn't help asking, "Brother Liang, are you really not going to chase or stop them? If something goes wrong and that adult blames us, none of us can afford it together."
Huang Liang seemed not to hear what his younger brother said. He looked at the gray sky and muttered to himself.
"This Luoyang City is about to change."
