Li Yuanhong said that he was a scavenger, so several soldiers on guard were puzzled: "what is a scavenger?"
"That is, we collect materials everywhere, and when we have a solid base, we will stay for two days." Li Yuanhong explained.
"It's the garbage collector. Open the bag and see what kind of garbage you've found!" Several soldiers laughed at Li Yuanhong.
Li Yuanhong didn't care about this either. He pushed the bag along and opened it. Several soldiers looked inside and saw the compressed biscuits. They didn't pay much attention to it. When they saw instant noodles, they couldn't move their eyes.
After a long time, the sergeant who took the lead raised his head: "I didn't expect you to have some good goods. Well, you are an outsider. There are two ways to enter the city. One is to take one third of the materials in your bag as the city tax, or you two each take out two crystal cores."
Li Yuanhong did not hesitate to say: "four crystal nuclei ah, OK, we pull out!" With that, Li Yuanhong took out four crystal nuclei from his arms and handed them to the sergeant. This made him look at Li Yuanhong with a new look.
"All right, you go in." The sergeant let Li Yuanhong into the city.
Li Yuanhong was a bit surprised. He didn't expect to enter the city so easily. He didn't even get into trouble. Li Yuanhong took back the contents of the bag and walked to the town.
When Li Yuanhong walked into the city, the officials surrounded him: "head, why don't we want the materials in his bag?"
"What do you know? These two people are not simple. How dare you wander around alone?" The sergeant looked at several of his men.
"We don't have that ability!" The soldiers shook their heads like rattles.
"In addition, these people can easily take out the crystal core and the instant noodles that are now rare and precious. We can have a good relationship with them in the future, and we can't be prepared to get any benefits. If you offend them now, there will be no future wealth!" The way of officials.
"I still have a good eye. It seems that I'm right to follow you." Several people began to flatter.
Li Yuanhong and the guards walked into the gate, and then they could see that the gate was six or seven meters wide, which showed that the wall was very thick, so the zombies could not easily break through this place. However, I didn't know whether it was the troops they were looking for, so they had to go into the city to inquire.
When Li Yuanhong stepped into the gate of the city, the result was a chaotic scene. There were private houses and tents everywhere. Garbage was everywhere on the road. There were also many people with disheveled heads and shabby clothes squatting at the door with fire and cooking. There was almost no rice in their pot, and there were all wild vegetables in it. It seems that those who left the city just now went to the mountain to collect wild vegetables, but the soup did not seem to have any salt taste.
After walking all the way, most people are like this. All of them are numb. All of them are like robots. They cook and eat rigidly. After walking all the way, Li Yuanhong hardly hears the voice of children. After walking for a long time, the messy environment changes, and the originally dirty environment disappears, followed by neat streets. On both sides of the street are spacious residential buildings. Occasionally, you can see lights inside the buildings, but the lights are not electric lamps. They should be candlelight or kerosene lamps. However, the lights can be seen here, which are regarded as luxurious things. They are in the periphery, There was almost no fire but cooking. On his way forward, Li Yuanhong also saw several hotels and a hotel. The door of the hotel was very depressed, but the hotel was full of people. Moreover, there were many women in exposed clothes soliciting business at the door of the hotel. Needless to ask, he knew what these women were doing.
Seeing this, Li Yuanhong jokingly asked the security guard: "I said brother Wei, you see those girls are very good, do you want to go and make love!"
The guard gave Li Yuanhong a blank look, and then he said rigidly, "if you want to go, I won't stop you, but I will definitely tell my master exactly."
"It's boring. I can't even play a joke. OK, let's go to the hotel first and then decide what to do next." When Li Yuanhong saw that the guard was like a piece of wood, he did not joke. How could his father-in-law of an old urchin teach such a rigid apprentice?
Li Yuanhong and the guards came to the hotel. There was a candle burning at the counter. The shadow of the candle was flickering. A dark shadow was lying on the counter. I think it's the shopkeeper. I don't have any guests. I fell asleep here.
Li Yuanhong went to the counter and patted the counter. The man lying on the counter suddenly woke up and looked around. When he saw Li Yuanhong and the guards, he rubbed his eyes and said, "what's the matter?"
"We're going to stay!" Li Yuanhong said.
"In a shop?" After listening to this, the young man looked at Li Yuanhong carefully. When he saw Li Yuanhong's clothes, he asked uncertainly, "do you want to stay in the hotel? Ten nuclei for one night, everyone
"Oh, that is to say, two people have twenty nuclei." Li Yuanhong asked.
"Yes The shop assistant answered.
"What does the store offer?"
"There is only a bed for sleeping. If you want to wash, there is no way to provide it here. You need to go to the bathhouse opposite. If you eat, you also need to go to the restaurant outside." The boy said impatiently."Well, then give us a standard room." Li Yuanhong said.
After listening to Li Yuanhong's words, the boy was stunned, looked at Li Yuanhong carefully, and then said, "pay the store money first!"
Li Yuanhong took out one or two second-order nuclei from his arms and handed them over. The boy took the crystal core, looked at it with the help of candlelight, and after confirming it was true, he took up the candlestick on the table, walked out of the counter, and then said to Li Yuanhong, "come with me!" Then he led the way ahead and went inward.
Li Yuanhong and the guard followed the boy. As he walked, he asked, "where did you come from?"
"We are scavengers from the outside. We happen to pick up waste near here. If there is a gathering place here, come and have a look. By the way, who set up the gathering place here? " Li Yuanhong asked.
"Oh, most of the survivors here have escaped from nearby towns. Some of them have come from Yanjing. They are in charge of Yanjing army. So you must be honest, otherwise those soldiers will not be friendly." The boy said.
"Oh? It's a gathering place set up by the army. That's great. The public order here should be very good, and it should be very safe. " Li Yuanhong pretended to be very happy.
After listening to Li Yuanhong's words, xiaoxiaoji looks back at Li Yuanhong with the same look of an idiot. This glance is just a slight sweep and turns his head. It is in the dark. Most people don't care too much about it. But Li Yuanhong has learned the magic of the real eye, and this action of Xiaoji doesn't escape Li Yuanhong's eyes.
"If you're all right at night, you'll be honest and stay in the store. If there's anything going on outside, you don't care. Well, when your room arrives, there's no candle in the room. If you want a light, you need to pay extra." The boy opened the door of a room. There were only two beds in the door. The bed was clean, with sheets and bedding. There was no dirt that people could not accept. Besides, there was nothing else. If it was put before the end of the world, it would have been found in a remote mountain village. But now, in the end of the world, it is already a luxury environment.
"Well, this is your room. Don't make your bed dirty when you sleep, or you will be fined tomorrow." Like a financial fan, he always keeps money in his three words.
"Well, I see!" Li Yuanhong smilingly takes over the room key from the boy.
When the boy turned to leave, Li Yuanhong suddenly asked, "where is the place to eat?"? I mean that kind of cheap little restaurant. Where else is the market? That's the kind of free trade, that kind of floor stall market. " Li Yuanhong asked.
"The cheaper hotel is in our back street, but it's quite chaotic at night. The free market is at the end of the back street. There's a small square there. But it's too late now. It should have been closed." When the boy finished answering, he turned and left.
Looking at the boy's back, Li Yuanhong's face showed an intriguing smile.
At this time, the guard came to Li Yuanhong and asked softly, "brother li..."
Li Yuanhong quickly corrected: "my surname is Jia!"
The guard said, "I said Li Do you think there's something wrong with this guy, jago
"Let's go back to the room and say Li Yuanhong said. He walked into the room and closed the door, but it was not locked.
After entering the room, the guard still wants to talk. Li Yuanhong makes a silent gesture, and then asks the guard to retreat into the room, pretending to be ready to rest. Li Yuanhong counts ten numbers at the door, and then opens the door suddenly to see what the boy is listening to.
The door was suddenly opened, and the boy was stunned for a moment. Then he immediately responded and said, "Oh, guest, how do you want to go out?"
"Yes, we are not going out to find a place to eat. What can I do for you?" Li Yuanhong looks at this guy with a smile.
"Oh, I'm here to ask if you need anything else, water or something!" The boy replied.
"No, let's go out and solve it by ourselves. I'm afraid the water here is not free." Li Yuanhong joked.
The boy laughed awkwardly and then said, "in this case, I won't disturb you two, so I'll go back first." With that, the boy turned and walked out again.
When Li Yuanhong saw that the figure of the boy disappeared, he closed the door, went to the guard and said in a low voice, "this time, you know if there is any problem with the little guy."
The guard stretched out thumb to Li Yuanhong, then asked in a low voice, "what are we going to do next?"
"Didn't I just say that we're going out for dinner!" Li Yuanhong said.
"Do you really want to go out for dinner?" The guard was reluctant to say that he was a man who had been struggling for nearly two years in the end of the world. Naturally, he knew the hardships of the last life. Although there were restaurants outside, God only knew what he could eat.
"Let's go. Don't talk nonsense. If we don't go out, isn't that a slap in the face of other people's young men? Besides, we have to go out and ask for information." Li Yuanhong whispered.
After a while, the two men went out of the door, went downstairs, and went straight to the back street as the boy said. But as soon as Li Yuanhong and Li Yuanhong went out, the boy quickly slipped upstairs, opened Li Yuanhong's room, and carefully searched Li Yuanhong's backpack. He found that there were only compressed biscuits and instant noodles in it. The boy was a little confused. However, in order to prevent Li Yuanhong from coming back suddenly, the boy left the room and went back to the front desk.Li Yuanhong and the guards went to the back street. As expected, there was a lot of chaos here. There were all kinds of people. However, most of the people here didn't wear very well. There were many street women who were constantly soliciting for business, and the asking price was not very high. Some people could spend the night as long as two or three crystal cores.
Of course, Li Yuanhong doesn't pay attention to this. He wants to find a place where he can get information. Generally, pubs are the most suitable places. However, in the end of the world, wine has become a very scarce luxury. Therefore, the probability of having a bar here should not be very high. But after a few steps, he hears the noisy voices at the end of the street. Li Yuanhong relies on his real eyes I found the noise in the bar.
