Chapter 2 I have a job, whether you do it or not, I will definitely do it

"Here we are, Temple Bay Small Barrier."

Lu Shan reminded that when he came here, he was also relieved. The situation outside was beyond control. This time they were lucky and did not encounter a wave of alien beasts. Otherwise, it would not be so simple and easy to come back.

After getting closer, the barrier in front of him was more shocking than Lin Fan imagined. It had experienced the ravages of wind and frost, and he could see the remaining scratches on the wall. It was obvious that he had experienced a fierce battle.

There is no gate in the barrier, and there are hidden grooves on the wall, which are similar to a lifting machine. Lu Shan stepped on the accelerator lightly, and the pickup truck drove forward slowly. The wheels made a dull friction sound with the load-bearing iron plate. After the stop was stable, the lifting machine started to operate and rose. With.

'Barriers without gates. '

Lin Fan silently observed the surrounding situation. Thinking about it, he could understand that the thickness of the barrier could not support the existence of the gate. If there was a gate, then this would be the biggest flaw of the barrier.

Soon, we arrived at the city wall. There were many people standing on the city wall. They were carrying all kinds of old firearms. You could tell at a glance that they had a sense of age.

The city wall is at least six meters wide, which is enough for vehicles to stop. Such a barrier is definitely not something that can be built during the apocalypse of alien beasts. All kinds of mysteries are entangled in his mind.

I didn’t think much about it, and there was no point in thinking about it.

Lu Shan parked the pickup truck and got out of the car.

He stood on the city wall and looked inside the barrier. The scene in front of him was quite shocking. Various simple houses of different shapes appeared in his sight. Some were made of wood, and some were built of iron plates. It was messy, very messy. Even without in-depth contact, you can imagine that this place is terrible.

There is already a city wall here, but there is a wall in the center. You can vaguely see a group of people continuing to strengthen the height of the wall.

Peripheral city walls.

Inner city wall.

That is to say, in such a barrier, the class distinctions are very clear, and everyone is definitely not treated equally.

Survivors who are strong and organized should live well.

Survivors without strength or organization may be worse than pigs or dogs.

While he was thinking about these things.

He saw Lu Shan cut off one of the porcupine's hind legs and threw it directly in front of the barrier members, who skillfully put the hind legs into the bloody basket.

'This is back from the hunt and I need to turn in some results. '

He silently took the process he saw to heart.

He doesn't have that kind of domineering air now. He was shocked and roared angrily. How dare you touch the food that I have worked so hard to catch. You are looking for death. Then you drew your knife and slashed them indiscriminately, but you were still fine. degree.

Just when Lin Fan was thinking wildly, Lu Shan walked up to Lin Fan and handed over the meat leg, "Take this and exchange it for currency inside. It will be enough to live for a while. You will have to rely on yourself for the rest of the day. I hope You can live."

Lin Fan took the meat leg and said sincerely: "Thank you."

He knew very well how difficult it was to meet such a person in the last days.

He kept this kindness in his heart.

Lu Shan patted Lin Fan's shoulder lightly without saying much. He hoped to live well. This was a sincere blessing, but in such an environment, living is often a luxury.

Lin Fan hesitated to speak, but finally did not say anything. He wanted to say whether he could form a team with you, but he knew that this was impossible. People had said before that in the end of the world, trusting others easily is the stupidest thing. Naturally, it is impossible to accept him casually because of his behavior. Rather than being rejected by others, it is better to have self-awareness.

In the distance, Lu Shan and Lu Ying were getting further and further away as they went down the stairs.

"Brother, why are you giving him a leg? It's already pretty good if we can save him." Lu Ying asked in confusion.

Lu Shandao: "Sister, to ensure our own safety, we can be indifferent, but kindness should always be there. If he is not given a leg in his situation, it will be difficult for him to survive in the barrier."

"Well, I hope he can live." Lu Ying respects her brother's choice, because she can survive until now because her brother has not abandoned her.

……

at this time.

After walking down the stairs from the city wall, a pungent smell hit my face. It's hard to describe the smell. It seemed like many kinds of smells mixed together.

For example, the smell of rot, the smell of garbage, the smell of shit, the smell of urine, etc.

'Damn it, is this a place where humans can stay? '

Lin Fan complained crazily that he would rather return to Earth and move bricks than stay in such a ghost place.

But now that we have come, what else can we do?
If I could go back, I would have gone back a long time ago.

He observed the passers-by around him and found that they were dressed in rags and skinny, their eyes were numb and empty, and they had completely lost the energy that a person should have.

A woman in ragged clothes was leaning against the door of a dilapidated shack, trying her best to show off her charm.

He saw a man shaking a small bag of something in front of the woman. Judging from the size of the bulge, it was about the size of a fist. It might be rice. After seeing this, the woman showed joy on her face and hurriedly welcomed the man in. Inside, close the door.

You don’t have to think about what happens next, you know it’s not suitable for children.

'Damn, this is the situation, and you still don't reserve your strength to face unknown dangers, alas... No, things have to look at both sides. Maybe this is poverty alleviation, and poverty alleviation is also a sign of goodwill. '

Thinking of this, he really realized it.

Sure enough, people still have to think. Without thinking, there will always be blind spots where problems cannot be discovered.

Lin Fan found that he was carrying the meat leg, which attracted the attention of many survivors. They licked their lips, and their eyes were greedy, as if everything around them no longer existed, and only the meat leg was the most real.

What are you looking at? Don't really try to steal my stuff.

It just seems that there is some reason to restrain them.

So far, no survivor dares to rush up and snatch it.

Is it because of the patrols wearing special combat uniforms and carrying sticks?

I think this is also the case.

He felt that the stability of a barrier must be restricted by simple order. If they allowed each other to rob and hurt each other, they would be able to kill themselves without the help of alien beasts at all.

Arrive at the exchange place Lu Shan mentioned.

In such weather and without a refrigerator, the meat will easily deteriorate and you will definitely not be able to finish it if you eat it alone. The only option is to exchange the current barrier currency.

Currency is only useful here, and beyond the barriers it becomes garbage.

The currency exchange place was very formal. There were two security guards standing guard at the door. He was received by a middle-aged man who placed the porcupine meat legs on the table.

The middle-aged man didn't say much, and weighed it with ease, "An ordinary red-blooded beast, weighs 10 kilograms, and costs ten coins."

Hear what the other person is saying.

Lin Fan did not answer, but looked inside. There was a lot of exotic animal meat inside, which was carried away by specialized staff. At the same time, there were a lot of supplies placed on the shelves.

Instant noodles packaged in transparent bags cost one currency.

A palm-sized bag of salt costs ten coins.

……

Wait, a lot of things are very expensive.

He thought about it carefully and discovered the problem. Why did the barrier make the price of recovered exotic animal meat so low? What came to mind was that ordinary survivors did not have electricity or refrigerators, so they could not store it for a long time.

Either waste it or sell it at a low price.

And the only thing that can store meat for a long time is salt, so the monetary price of a small bag of salt is very high.

Damn, capitalists will cry when they see this.

"Do you want to change it?" the middle-aged man asked impatiently.

"Change, leave a pound for me." Lin Fan thought about getting over today first and having a barbecue in the evening to fill his stomach and make sure he wouldn't starve.

The middle-aged man said: "What's the use of keeping a pound of it? Although the meat of ordinary exotic animals with red blood can strengthen the body's constitution, it has to be eaten for a long time. I think you might as well exchange it for a pack of instant noodles to satisfy your craving. Think about your childhood. The smell, forget it, I won’t tell you anymore.”

Ignoring Lin Fan, the middle-aged man skillfully cut off a piece with a knife, weighed it, and cut off some corners with the knife. After determining the pound, he threw it directly in front of Lin Fan, and then threw the remaining leg of meat behind him. , took another nine coins from the cabinet and put them on the table.

At this time, Lin Fan was shocked.

Can long-term consumption of exotic animal meat enhance physical fitness?
So is this the reason why Lu Shan has so much strength?
Thinking of this, he did not regret selling the meat leg because he could not keep it for a long time.

As for instant noodles...you know, they are all made to cause vomiting. You will be asked to eat them 20 days a month to see if you can vomit.

Suddenly, he thought of the Coke he had thrown away. Damn it... there was still half a bottle in it. Damn it.

Oh, forget it, forget it, it’s all fate.

After collecting the currency, he wrapped the meat in waste paper, put it in his pocket, and turned around and left.

night.

Lin Fan huddled in a corner, lighting a fire, and a piece of meat became sizzling and oily under the heat of the fire.

"Mad, there's not even a place to stay."

He really wanted to cry without tears. Previously he thought that people were not as good as dogs, but at least they had something to cover their heads.

He simply uses the earth as his bed and the sky as his quilt.

The main thing is environmental protection.

The meat is ready.

It tastes pretty good. It's a little hot when I hold it in my hand. I flip it around with my hands and take a big bite. Well...it tastes really delicious.

Three times, five times and two times, the meat was eaten away.

I was already hiccupping.

Unexpectedly, a piece of meat actually filled my stomach. It was rich in energy.

Suddenly, he felt warm inside his body.Thinking of what the man at the exchange shop said casually, I hurriedly checked the panel.

[Level]: Level 0 (1/10)

【Physique】：2.0↑2.01
[Agility]: 2.0
【Spirit】: 1.9
Rubbed his eyes.

Physical fitness actually increased by 0.01.

Although the increase is a bit small, it proves the other party's statement.

It's really useful.

It's just that the 0.01 increase is a bit small, which is really pitiful.

The sky is getting dark.

In the silent night, the roars of strange beasts outside the city walls can be heard.

……

The next day, early in the morning, the air was turbid and mixed with a strange smell.

Lin Fan wandered aimlessly in the barrier. His impression of the place was that it was dirty, messy, and inhospitable to humans. He also discovered that some of the survivors on the periphery were unable to hunt exotic beasts. Why they were still alive was because they were working, such as farming. , work hard to get a little bit of food, but that bit of food cannot fill your stomach, it can only satisfy your hunger to ensure that you will not starve to death.

If he wants to find a way to survive now, he must at least make full use of the plug-in.

He knew it was a bit difficult in the early stage, but as long as his attributes could be improved, everything would be fine.

Suddenly, he stopped.

'Civilized Bookstore'

That's right, it's a bookstore. This makes him feel incredible. In this kind of environment, there is actually a bookstore?

Is there anything wrong.

At the door, an old man sat there with a kind face and a smile. He was surrounded by some children, who were sallow and thin and malnourished.

He stopped and watched quietly, wondering why these children were surrounding the old man.

Soon, he knew the result.

This old man is actually teaching these children knowledge and principles, and at the same time he will ask these children questions. If the children answer correctly, the old man will take out dried potato chips from his pocket and reward them to the children.

"Grandpa, I could write my name yesterday, but I can't do it today. This word..." A child was so anxious that he almost cried. He was so hungry and wanted to eat potato chips.

The old man touched the child's head kindly, picked up the branch, and scratched it on the ground, "Don't worry, look, is it written like this? If you press it one by one, it will be 'good'."

"Yes."

"Well, you've made great progress. Grandpa will give you two slices." The old man took out two potato slices and put them in the child's hands. The child wolfed them down and put them in his mouth.

After a long time.

The teaching reward was over. The old man spread his hands and said kindly: "Grandpa has no food. Can you come back tomorrow?"

"it is good……"

The children left happily. Every child got food. Even if the answer was wrong, they also got food after teaching. It was guaranteed that every child could eat. Although they could not fill their stomachs, they still got food. Don't be so hungry.

Seeing Lin Fan now, he was extremely shocked.

The old man looked at the children's leaving figures, feeling heartbroken, uncomfortable, and all kinds of emotions welling up in his heart. After a while, he saw Lin Fan and found that the young man had been looking at him, so he smiled and said, "Would you like to read a book?"

"can I see?"

"Of course, books are for reading. If a book can't be read, then what value does the book have, right?"

"The old man is right."

Lin Fan walked into the bookstore and looked at these old and yellowed books, knowing that they had been stored for a long time.

He saw a book that was incompatible with other books. It was not new, but at least it was newer than other books.

Taking it in hand, he opened it and looked at it.

'The collapse of human civilization began in July 2033. '

'A meteor shower appeared that covered the entire globe. '

'At first, people thought it was just a widespread meteor shower, which meant better luck in the coming year. '

'But in July 2034, a disaster that no one had imagined broke out. A mysterious pulse swept across the world. Planes, cars, and even military weapons all lost their effect. The beasts that once lived in the mountains and old forests They turned into a torrent and swept through all cities around the world, and a disaster occurred. '

Lin Fan looked at it very seriously.

The outbreak of the disaster was caused by a meteor shower, but it completely exploded after being dormant for a year.

It seems that the reason why the beasts mutated is related to the meteor shower.

He continued to watch.

Found out how barriers are formed.

'In August 2033, the elderly General Huang appeared on TV and told the people that the meteor shower had an impact on the world. There might be something wrong with the beasts. He hoped that the people of the country would unite, build barriers, and surround important cities. In order to combat possible disasters in the future, the people of the country and even the supreme ruler at that time looked at General Huang as a joke. '

'In mid-August 2033, for unknown reasons, the country started construction. However, it did not build a barrier centered on the city. Instead, it built a city wall tens of meters high centered on air defense holes and underground military. '

'In May 2034, the disaster did not occur, and General Huang was sent to a military court. At that time, General Huang was too old to be busy with the construction of the barrier. After all, his body could not hold on, and he died in the military court. , but before he died, General Huang spoke loudly to all the news media. He saw the future. Human beings in the future will be killed by alien beasts. The barrier is the safest place. He hopes that people can unite to fight against the alien beasts. , but people are still laughing and scolding him for wasting social and national resources. '

'In July 2034, the disaster completely struck and the extinction of mankind began. The living people recalled General Huang's words. They knew that the great General Huang did not lie, but it was too late. '

records of these contents.

Lin Fan was shocked.

Can General Huang see the future?
Therefore, if you take action in advance, you may be blocked by some reasons and cannot do better. You can only take a step back, hoping to leave a base for humans to fight against alien beasts.

After a long time.

Lin Fan slowly closed the book and already had a general understanding of the world.

The same is true for alien beasts.

Alien beasts are divided into levels, and that porcupine is just a red-blooded ordinary alien beast, which is the lowest level of alien beast. Long-term consumption can enhance a person's physique, but the effect is limited.

It is indeed limited, take it personally, and watch the data change in person, it is real and reliable, and there is no bragging.

But if you continue to eat the flesh and blood of higher-level alien beasts, your physical strength will continue to increase to the point where you can compete with the alien beasts.

Such people are called 'predators'.

And there is another existence higher than the 'Hunter', and that is the 'Awakened One'.

When the red-blooded flesh and blood of ordinary alien beasts reaches the limit, there will be a probability of awakening and possessing various extraordinary abilities. At that time, it is necessary to take the blood crystals of high-level alien beasts.

Blood crystals exist in the bodies of high-level alien beasts and are the essence of high-level alien beasts.

Got it, now I finally get it.

He has a general understanding of the situation in this world.

You won’t be confused by other people’s questions. You are half a local.

He put the book back where it belonged.

"Old man, you distribute the food to the children, don't you keep some for yourself?" Lin Fan asked.

The old man smiled and said: "As people get older, their appetite decreases. If you eat a little, you will feel full."

"What's your source of food?"

He doesn't think that at this age, the old man can still go out to hunt exotic animals, even if he is working in the fields, the food provided is too little to meet the needs of just distributing food.

"Haha, you are looking down on me, old man. To be honest, I used to be a car repairman and my car repair skills are very good, so I am quite popular. I also have a stable job here. After all, vehicles are very important when traveling now. Two Legs can’t run as fast as four legs.”

Lin Fan blinked and thought he was careless. He thought the old man was suffering, but he didn't expect that he had a plan.

Think about it, technical workers are always the strongest.

With a skill close to you, you are not afraid of wherever you go.

Regardless of whether you are in the last days or not, you will definitely be reused and have food to eat.

"Young man, you are one of the few people I have seen on the outer wall who is full of energy and spirit and has light in his eyes. Remember, the reason why human beings are called human beings is because they have civilization. If humans do not have civilization, then How are they different from the wild beasts outside, so this child is the inheritor of civilization and the hope of the future, rather than relying on those who have... Sigh." The old man shook his head and said nothing more.

"The old man is right," Lin Fan said.

Although the contact was brief, he spoke highly of the old man.

Nothing is absolute.

Even in the last days, there are still noble people.

"Young man, do you want to do a job? I can't guarantee anything else. At least I can live well here."

"What live?"

"Would you like to do blacksmithing?"

"Dry."

Without any hesitation.

There is a direction to integrate here, so it is naturally impossible to give up.
