The last days of Gaowu: I can see the health bars of all things

Chapter 95: Brothers and sisters who make a living by collecting herbs (please subscribe and vote monthly)
Behind a collapsed wall in front, two young men, a man and a woman, who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, came out. They were dressed like hunters and both held long-handled wooden spears.

Behind them was a basket made of bamboo, which contained some green plants. It was hard to tell whether they were wild vegetables or anything else.

"Brother, we are passing by."

The young man took the girl's hand and said warily.

The girl was very brave and plucked up the courage to say: "We live downstream and come to collect herbs nearby. Please let us go. We will give you all the herbs we collected today."

The young man's face showed reluctance, but it seemed he had no choice but to do it in order to survive!

"Yes, we have a good harvest today. We collected a lot of herbs that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis."

"Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis?"

Lin Jia showed an interested look and said, "I thought you were out hunting, but I didn't expect you were collecting herbs!"

He looked at Chen Lili: "Is there a village near here that collects medicinal herbs?"

"I haven't heard of it." Chen Lili shook her head.

"We are not a village, just a gathering place for more than 20 people. If we hunt, we don't even think about it. We can't beat it. Everyone makes a living by collecting herbs."

The young man explained.

Later, after the explanations of these two young people, everyone learned about their situation.

In recent years, plants have flourished in this place, and many medicinal herbs have grown. These herbs have miraculous effects.

Relying on these medicinal herbs, they began to sell them to nearby passing caravans, and sometimes they would find ways to transport them to the Songji base.

"This is what happened. In fact, we lived in this place before." The young man pointed to the ruins behind him. "Then the vicious beasts broke through the city wall. Most of the people died, and only a small part of us escaped. Come out and now live outside all the time.”

Seeing that Lin Jia and others did not have any malicious intentions, he said cautiously: "Brother, I think this is the first time for you to pass by here. You must not know about us. You can learn more about us in the future. If you need medicinal herbs, you can contact us. We charge a lot." cheap."

Lin Jia stood with his hands behind his hands, walked over and said, "Let me see what herbs they are."

"Okay, okay."

The two quickly took off the bamboo baskets they were carrying and poured them all out.

While Lin Jia was looking at the herbs, the two men continued to talk and introduce themselves.

The boy's name is Yu Xiaofei, and the girl is his sister, named Yu Xiaoqin.

In fact, when looking at the medicinal herbs, Lin Jia was thinking about a question, that is, Yu Xiaoqin looked very weak, with withered hair, thin and weak appearance, but why was her health bar so high?

There is only one answer!
That is, Yu Xiaoqin may be an awakener?
Sure enough, when introducing these herbs, it was Yu Xiaoqin who did the talking, and seemed to understand the characteristics of these herbs very well.

Lin Jia said: "It sounds good, but they are all herbs that are effective in healing. I want to know if there are any herbs that are useful in increasing strength?"

He remembered that Qi and Blood Recovery Liquid was a medicine made from medicinal herbs, but no one knew what kind of medicinal herbs it was.

Yu Xiaoqin nodded subconsciously and said: "Yes, but those medicinal herbs are very rare. Even if they are there, they are occupied by some ferocious beasts, because those ferocious beasts are very smart, and the herbs that are useful to us humans are also useful to them. They will Look, we’re not easily accessible.”

Lin Jia's heart moved: "What level are those ferocious beasts?"

"The fifth-order, sixth-order, and weaker ones also include the third-order and fourth-order ones. These are more numerous and difficult to deal with."

"Take us back there, I want to pick some of these herbs."

"what?"

The brother and sister's eyes suddenly widened.

He actually took the initiative to provoke those ferocious beasts.

It is true that Lin Jia's convoy looks very powerful, but the problem is that those ferocious beasts are also very powerful.

Even the third-level ferocious beasts are all gregarious creatures, and their number is no less than fifty. When you encounter a fifth-level ferocious beast, you have to avoid its sharp edges. How to fight?
The two of them talked at once and quickly explained the key relationship.

Lin Jia frowned slightly, it did not sound easy.

"Okay, let's talk about this later. Can you take us to where you live? I want to purchase an extra batch of herbs and sell them at the Songji base."

Lin Jia decided to have a good talk with the two brothers and even recruit them into the gang.

He thought about it. Source crystal can certainly make his people stronger, but it also depends on their talent. But medicinal herbs can make people's talent stronger and make progress faster!

"This……"

Hearing that Lin Jia was going to their home, Yu Xiaofei hesitated.

After all, what if they take strangers back and suddenly attack them?
Seeing the concerns of the two of them, Lin Jia said: "If we are bad guys, to be honest, we can definitely force you to submit, right?"

As he spoke, Lin Jia took out two pieces of barbecue wrapped in lotus leaves from his backpack and handed them over.

"You must not have eaten yet when you are out. Eat something. Don't be hungry."

Lin Jia's friendly gesture made the brother and sister look at each other and seemed to let down their guard.

So, both of them took the food.

They are not stupid either. Although they have concerns about Lin Jia, if they think about it carefully, it is true. Lin Jia can threaten them and force them to do things.

But he didn't do this, which meant that he didn't want to force them to do anything, but he really wanted to cooperate.

"Eat slowly. What I mean is that we can work together in the future. You are responsible for collecting the herbs, and I am responsible for helping you sell them to the outside world."

"Then you won't have to live such a life of fear anymore. Not only will you be able to have enough food and clothing, but I can even send someone to protect you so that you don't get into trouble when you go out to collect medicine."

Lin Jia seems to be a good boss, and he treats his employees seriously!

Sure enough, the two brothers and sisters were moved.

No one wants to live a precarious life all the time. Lin Jia's words really spoke to their hearts. "Then...then I will take you to see where we live later."

"Is it far?"

"It takes about an hour to walk."

Lin Jia calculated that it would take more than two hours to go back and forth, which would not delay the trip to Songjia Base. After all, they would not be walking there later, but driving there.

After eating something good, Lin Jia rode a motorcycle, asked Chen Lili to drive a pickup truck, and took a group of people and bloodthirsty dogs to the place where the two brothers and sisters lived.

This is a small road going to the countryside. The road can only accommodate one car. The ground is extremely muddy and has pits on it.

After about 10 minutes, we finally arrived at a village with a simple wooden wall.

After getting out of the car, Lin Jia was speechless and said to the brothers and sisters: "You guys live in a place like this? Aren't you afraid of vicious beasts crashing in?"

This kind of broken wall might not even be able to withstand the impact of a four-horned sheep, right?

"There's nothing we can do about it. We used to have no fixed place and we had to build a wall with great difficulty." Yu Xiaofei explained: "But there aren't many ferocious beasts around here. It's been more than a year and no ferocious beast has come here."

"Xiao Fei, Xiao Qin, why did you bring people here?"

Seeing the convoy, the faces of some people working outside changed.

"Don't worry, I don't have any ill intentions. I came here to buy medicinal materials."

After all, they gave me some food. Only when they saw the guns in the hands of Lin Jia and others did the people here relax!After all, if you don't relax, you'll get shot.

There are really only about 20 people here, and everyone makes a living by collecting herbs. At the door of every house, some herbs are dried.

"Who is in charge here?"

Lin Jia asked.

"It's me." A middle-aged man stood up, with a health bar of only 95.

"I am Xiaofei Xiaoqin's uncle. The parents of these two children had an accident when they went out to collect medicine a few years ago. Now they have been living with me. My name is Yu Lei."

"Hello, Brother Yu." Lin Jia nodded and said, "Our team is planning to go to the Songji Base. I think the medicinal materials you have here are quite good. I plan to buy them all and sell them there. What do you think?"

Hearing this, everyone in the village became excited.

"I happen to have a lot of them at home. No one in the nearby villages has asked for medicinal herbs. This is great."

"Yeah, is it really okay? Can I take a ride?"

"What are you thinking about? There is no such thing as a good thing. In my opinion, we need to pay the fare, right?"

"But my family doesn't even have food, it's just wild vegetables... I can't afford it!"

Suddenly, the people around him were a little frustrated and looked at Lin Jia helplessly.

Lin Jia smiled and said: "Don't worry, everyone. My aim is win-win cooperation and I will help you bring goods for free. After all, we will cooperate for a long time in the future."

Hearing this, everyone laughed. It was the first time they met someone who didn't bully them, which made everyone happy.

Just like that, a load of goods was moved up.

Lin Jia did not disappoint everyone and gave a large amount of animal meat that was originally intended to be sold as part of the deposit.

"Yu Xiaofei, Yu Xiaoqin, we are not very familiar with this batch of medicinal materials. You are familiar with it. Why don't you go together and negotiate the price and so on? You will also know a little bit about it."

Lin Jia suggested.

Yu Xiaoqin was stunned and looked at Yu Xiaofei, who then looked at his uncle Yu Lei.

Yu Lei smiled and nodded: "Go, it will be good to gain some experience."

Lin Jia's attitude let everyone know that he was not a bad person, so it was no problem to follow him.

Just like that, the convoy left here.

Returning to the abandoned town, the convoy set off again.

Yu Xiaoqin sat next to Li Shuang's seat and glanced at the bloodthirsty dog ​​lying behind the car. Her head felt buzzing, as if in a dream.

The terrifying bloodthirsty dog ​​looks so docile.

"Xiaoqin, do you want to learn martial arts?"

Li Shuang suddenly asked.

Yu Xiaoqin was stunned: "Learning martial arts?"

"Yes, I think you have good talent. After learning martial arts, you can better protect yourself and those around you."

Yu Xiaoqin shook his head and said, "I think so, but I'm too weak. I'm just a girl."

Yu Xiaoqin looked at the bow on Li Shuang's back and said, "How about learning archery in the future."

"Okay, I will bring you to where we live in the future and I will teach you."

Before, Lin Jia secretly told Li Shuang that Yu Xiaoqin might be the awakened one!
Of course we need to win over such talents.

She was confident that if she told Yu Xiaoqin's uncle to invite them to Guang'an Community, they would all agree.

It was almost getting dark when I finally saw a tall wall.

"This is the outside of Songjia Base."

Chen Lili said excitedly on the intercom.
