“Are you Shen Tangtang?”
Shen Tangtang took off her straw hat and saw the tall man in front of her at a glance. Judging from his clothes, he was a mercenary responsible for patrolling nearby, so she said calmly: “I am, may I ask what can I do for you?”
"Is this yours?"
As he spoke, Zhang Yi stretched out his palm and opened it, revealing Shen Tangtang's wooden sign.
Shen Tangtang did not deny it, but touched her neck and found that her wooden sign was indeed missing, and said solemnly: “It’s mine.”
Her wooden sign was engraved with Shen Tangtang, so it was no wonder that this person walked straight towards her. But how did he lock on to her? Was he seen when he ran back just now?
Ever since I made the contract, the space has entered my sea of consciousness. The wooden sign is no longer useful, but it was left by the original owner's parents, so I have always cherished it.
It must have dropped it somewhere accidentally today. But would this person be so kind as to come over just to return the wooden sign?
Are there such good people in the wasteland? And he's just a piece of wood, so there's no need for that at all?
Seeing Shen Tangtang's puzzled look, Zhang Yi coughed lightly and said, "We found traces of mutant ants nearby, and Miss Shen's wooden sign was also found nearby, so I want to ask Miss Shen, did you encounter mutant ants just now?"
There was a hint of excitement in his tone. Mutant ants live in the ground. As long as they find the mutant ants' nest, they may get countless energy stones. This is an opportunity that every mercenary group is eager to get.
Shen Tangtang blinked her innocent big eyes and lied, "I didn't see it. I went there for a walk at noon and didn't find anything. There was not even anything to eat."
“Miss Shen, there’s no need to rush to answer. I think it’s not too late for you to think it through.”
Zhang Yi's tone was a little unfriendly. Because she was a little girl, she had spoken softly before, but that didn't mean she could deceive him.
Shen Tangtang choked, feeling that this person was really strange, and resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
Forget it, I can’t afford to offend him.
People are in a good mood now and just want to know the whereabouts of the mutant ants from me. If it really touches their interests, it will not be good.
His expression turned cold, and he spoke calmly, "This is my first time in this scavenging area. I only went to the west side this morning. Besides, you saw it too. Can a little girl like me escape from the mouth of a mutant ant?"
"Deputy Captain Zhang, please don't embarrass the girl. The captain needs you over there."
A man wearing the same clothes came over and glanced at Shen Tangtang's body with obvious contempt. He didn't believe that a weak little girl could escape from the mouth of the mutant ants.
Zhang Yi said no more, stood up, stroked the wooden sign in his hand, threw it into Shen Tangtang's arms, and left with the man.
They wore special anti-radiation suits and avoided the sun's rays, walking away step by step.
"Tangtang, are you okay?"
Lin Daiyu spoke cautiously from the side.
She was really scared just now. She had never been in such close contact with mercenaries before. She felt that they exuded a violent aura that made her feel suffocated.
"fine."
Shen Tangtang waved her hand and picked up the wooden sign in her arms. The rope must have aged. She ran too fast just now and didn't notice when it fell off.
Bai Yanjun looked at Shen Tangtang with complicated eyes. He felt that Dai Yu's little sister was very courageous. Just now, he held his breath and dared not attract the attention of the mercenaries, but Shen Tangtang was able to answer the questions calmly.
It seems that Shen Tangtang can also be contacted...
Shen Tangtang felt the two burning gazes beside her and rolled her eyes secretly.
He put the wooden sign into the small pocket close to his skin and looked up at Lin Daiyu.
The desire in Lin Daiyu's eyes had not yet been concealed, and was seen by Shen Tangtang.
Could it be that this white moonlight female supporting role has been eyeing his own wooden sign for a long time?
But this doesn't make sense. The wooden sign is made of hard, low-radiation wood from the wild, and was carved by the original owner's parents to use as a talisman for the original owner, so it has Shen Tangtang's name engraved on it.
It's just that I have been playing with it since I was a child, and the wooden plaque has become patina-like and very shiny. From a distance, I thought it was a piece of fine jade.
"Tangtang, can I... can I see your jade token?"
Lin Daiyu finally expressed her thoughts. She felt that there was something very attractive in the jade token and she wanted to take it away.
"Can't."
Shen Tangtang shook her head resolutely and patted the small pocket on her chest.
Just kidding, will you come back after I show you?
Even though the space has been contracted by me, the wooden plaque is still a talisman given to me by my parents. How can I give it to anyone casually?
Lin Daiyu moved his fingers awkwardly and looked at Bai Yanjun pitifully.
Bai Yanjun's eyes darkened, and he said, "Tangtang, I think..."
"Don't say that. I know it's time to look for food. I'll leave now. See you at 6 o'clock."
Shen Tangtang interrupted Bai Yanjun's spellcasting, stood up and spoke to them seriously, then resolutely plunged into the bushes beside him.
Lin Daiyu and Bai Yanjun were left looking at each other, neither of them expected Shen Tangtang to react like this, and they were unable to recover for a while.
Finally, it was Lin Daiyu who spoke up, "Brother Jun, let's go find some food! The sun isn't as bright as before."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Bai Yanjunjun smiled and nodded in agreement with her decision.
Here, Shen Tangtang walked through the grass and came to a river.
The river was so clear that you could see the bottom. I didn't see a single fish, but there were a lot of water celery and wild rice growing by the river.
