Chapter 79 78. Exchange notes

"You are wrong. Your name is Louis, right? I see you are digging this rock. We have five people here who can help you. As long as you give me half of the food." The strong man said with a smile. The corners of his mouth were filled with the smell of blood.

Gejir frowned: "You are not welcome here, get out!"

"Smelly bitch! What's wrong with asking for some of your food? If I don't give you food or drink, I'll give it to you!" The young man around him obviously couldn't stand it anymore. Translucent water and food were a treasure. How could he not watch it with helpless eyes? Tempted?

Besides, there are five strong men on my side, and they only have one weapon. How can they be afraid if they all go together?

But I didn’t expect that the expression on the face of the strong man in front changed slightly, and the smile he had just pulled away disappeared. He still looked at Lewis and said in a negotiating tone: “Or we can leave now, as long as you tell me where the food is found. Yes, I must go!"

"Get out!" Louis yelled, raising the knife in his hand and about to drop it.

The big man was startled by the sharp edge and said quickly: "Leave now! Leave now! Don't do anything!"

"Stop, put down the weapon!" Gezier said at this time, his eyes falling on the daggers in the hands of several people.

These people are too dangerous. Let them leave with weapons. What if they bump into Nick and the others coming back?
If you don't want to keep people, you must remove their weapons and then send them away!

They will adjust the alert when Tabor comes back!

"No! This is our tool for self-defense!" The big man refused without thinking, with a bit of embarrassment on his face: "You also know the environment outside. If we don't have weapons, we won't survive long outside."

He looked relaxed and praying.

It's a pity that neither Lewis nor Gergil trusts him. Just looking at the ferocious expressions on the faces of the people behind the big man, you know that these people must still have thoughts about them.

They don't want to be killed by the sword and become meat in other people's mouths.

"Put it down, or I won't let you leave." Lewis also understood what Gegil said. He glanced at Raman's position and took a few steps closer to the big man again.

Immediately a cold sweat broke out on the big man's head.

Because as he got closer, he could already see a piece of white light reflecting on the edge of the white knife - it was extremely sharp.

He even felt that his bones could be cut open without leaving any scars!

"Don't move, let's put it down, let's put it down!" the big man said, shaking his body slightly, pretending to put down the dagger in his hand.

At the moment when both Gergil and Lewis subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, the big man suddenly turned around and pulled the young man who had just screamed and a man who was as ugly as a ghost, then pushed the two of them forward, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the cave. Run outside.

"Pfft!" The sound of a sharp blade sounded behind his ears.

The big man and the two people who were following him hurriedly turned around, and saw that the two people who were used as cannon fodder had been slashed twice, one on the left and one on the right, cutting off their entire shoulders, and bright red blood spurted out from their necks.

There were no screams or shouts. As the dagger hit the ground with a clatter, the two men fell to the ground in a dull voice, and the hole was filled with bright red blood.

"! Damn it!" I didn't expect this knife to be so sharp! As imagined, one knife can even kill someone.

This time we encountered a tough problem!
The three of them were running very fast, and Lewis could have chased them, but he was still caught halfway by Gergil.

"Don't chase him. When Tabor comes back tonight, we will go back together and get more weapons for self-defense."

"Will there be any danger?"

"They will come back. Seeing that we have food, they can't just go back so easily. And they will most likely find Boss Wen. So they can't stay here for the time being.

Now let's dig some more rocks and wait for Tabor and the others to come over and go back together. "Gegil said.

She knew clearly that these three people were licking blood at the edge of a knife. Maybe besides the three of them, there were others hiding outside.

This time it can scare people away. Next time if there are many people on the other side, it will be difficult for them to dodge with only one weapon.

"But this time I got five daggers. Let's all divide them for self-defense. When we go back, we can find Boss Wen to exchange some weapons for self-defense. By the way, we can tell Boss Wen so that she can be prepared for the situation here."

"Okay, just do what you said. The other people who are resting will also help to guard. If you find a problem, call and I will take out the knife immediately." Lewis said.

This work lasted all night.

Under the hidden hillside in the distance, three familiar heads stretched out, shakingly looking at the movement in the distance, and their ears could clearly hear the loud sound of falling stones inside.

"Boss! Their weapons are so powerful!" the middle-aged man said hoarsely. He was speechless due to the extreme lack of water.

"That knife can cut stone! What do they want that stone for?" Another young man said suspiciously.

As the leader of the team, the strong man Khan is naturally not slow in his thinking, but he spends his time on how to deceive people.

Now he only took a few breaths after escaping from death, and took the remaining two younger brothers to secretly observe the movements in the distance.

They were short of food, and even if they couldn't grab the food from those people, they still had to find out where their things came from. And that knife!

Most importantly, what is that stone used for?
"Don't make any noise, take turns to rest. Old man, you monitor the distance and wake us up immediately if there is any movement from the other party!" the strong man said, not paying any attention to the middle-aged man's drastically changed expression.

"Boss... I, I can't hold on much longer..." If he continues like this, he will die!
"Huh?" The strong man stared at him, and when the others were trembling with fear, he softened his tone: "Have you seen their food? Once there is food, you, as my only two younger brothers, will be mine from now on. Lieutenants on the left and right, the benefits are indispensable to you!"

"Really?" The middle-aged man who had just looked depressed and desperate suddenly became happy.

He can be the boss's right-hand man, and if he finds a few younger brothers to work with in the future, he won't be the one being bullied!
"Naturally, he and I need to save our energy and seize the opportunity to capture the person. It's best for you to monitor us now," the strong man said.

Then I fell asleep as soon as my eyes closed.

The sky was dark, but there was no movement in the cave all night long. The middle-aged man saw the group of people taking out yellow stones and placing them on the ground several times.

Then more than an hour later, a few familiar figures in the distance rushed back pushing the shuttle bus, looking refreshed as if they had eaten and drank.

The middle-aged man was even more surprised. This group of people really had a secret!
"Louis! We're back!" Nick's excited shout was unusually obvious in the dark night.

Even without the middle-aged man shouting, the strong man and the other boy opened their eyes on their own, staring into the distance with their shining eyes, and naturally noticed the difference between these people who came back.

"Nick, hurry up and move the rocks. Let's go back together this morning." Gergil said, and worked with others to neatly stack the flat ores on the cart.

Three shuttle buses were full, and a high peak emerged.

The extra leftover materials are not wasted. They are made into net bags with cloth-like clothes and hung on the shuttle bus to take back. It wasn't even daylight at this time, so the group headed back in the dark.

"Louis, what happened?" Nick was confused.

"Cousin?" Barry and others also became curious.

"There was someone nearby, and we ran into it. Fortunately, we had a bone knife to defend ourselves... We also collected five daggers. Nick, take this one." Louis did not say anything clearly, but Nick's expression suddenly changed.

They were all people who had survived together, so how could he not understand what Louis had just said?

"It seems you are right, Gergil. Others are not as easy to trust as us."

"Well, Gergil, I agree with what you said before." Louis said while pushing the cart in the direction of Gergil.

To be able to survive safely and securely with resources in the organized world can only be achieved by working together as a team.

Only by working together can human civilization have a chance to survive.

"That's good." Gejir smiled, but didn't reply much.

She was too tired now. While pushing the cart, she also had to be alert to the movements around her.

She couldn't let go of her guard until she returned to Boss Wen's territory.

In fact, they just left for a while.

The strong man rushed back with his two younger brothers. Without seeing the food and water being shed, the strong man punched the mountain wall with his fist.

After getting angry, he looked at the traces on the mountain wall and the abandoned stones left around. After thinking for a while, he put a yellow stone that had been carelessly left out along with the green stone in a tattered cloth bag.

Then he turned around and came to the ground, looked at the place where the blood was almost drained, pushed aside the two boys and lowered his head...

Wen Xia had a good night's sleep, and she fell asleep on the rotation duty she had agreed to do.

The honest Dahuang was consciously standing on his head, and his half-opened and half-closed eyes looked out from time to time to the nameless border. Under the moonlight, there was a deserted Gobi Desert-like place. It was quiet and eerily quiet.

But no matter how scary it was, nothing could be more terrifying than the screams of a group of increasingly restless beasts on the mountain behind.

I don’t know why these days, these beasts have become even more scorched, as if they were stimulated by something.

But what could possibly excite them in the Nameless Realm?
Dahuang couldn't figure it out, he just wanted to be a cow.

It was less than five o'clock in the morning and it was already dark.

Wen Xia stretched herself out of bed and started making breakfast.

It's still sweet potato rice porridge, plus appetizing kimchi, and then vegetarian shredded potatoes.

Xiao Huihui stretched back and forth and took the initiative to put all the potted plants out to bask in the sun without her urging.

Then it’s time to water and water, and it’s time to apply fertilizer.

Xiao Bai and Xiao Huang helped fertilize and water the plants in the Wuming Realm, and they were very busy for a while.

As the water in the pot began to boil, several familiar figures appeared in the distance. They pushed carts full of things and rushed in the still hot sunshine in the early morning. You could even see the steam above their heads. The steam rises.

"Boss Wen! We are back!" Raman waved and shouted, walking weakly.

Xiao Huihui was so enthusiastic that he put a few wooden carts into the space ring as help, then ran back and took out the things again.

The electronic scale was placed on the ground. Wen Xia looked at the pile of ore with a smile on her face and stirred the rice porridge.

"You're back? Did you really discover a mineral vein?"

"Hehe, we have better luck. Boss Wen, could you please change some water for us?" Louis smiled sheepishly, and waited for the others to sit on the stools to rest, then he went to the front to get the food and waited.

"Okay, the herbal tea I made yesterday will just quench your thirst." Wen Xia handed over the chicken-mouth-shaped kettle, put a few plastic bowls on it, and pointed to the wooden board outside and said, "The exchange rules have been updated. I will directly exchange them for you with the tickets I made. The price of each item is written on it. Each item can be purchased with a different number of tickets. Two pieces of ore can be exchanged for 50 worth of tickets, which will also make it easier for you to go out."

The function of the notes here is equivalent to currency. Wen Xia directly used the printer to print out the Chinese coins last night.

This world is a farming society, there are no printers, and now there is no paper, pen and ink to cheat. She is still very confident in her idea.

"This, this is equivalent to money, right? That's great, then we don't have to worry about too many things and putting them outside the house where you live to trouble you." Louis said.

"Yes, if you want to buy rice, noodles and water to cook for yourself, or even firewood and boilers, I can support it here, and the price is also on the sign outside." Wen Xia nodded.

Louis poured a bowl of water for each of his companions, took a sip of sweet tea himself, and immediately took the others to the board to look at the prices.

The language above was so unfamiliar that he couldn't understand it at all.

As Louis, Nick, and Raman, who had never learned to write, the three of them were a little confused at this time, and couldn't help but glance at Gergil and Patrick.

"This is the text of the gods, and we can't understand it, but you can look at the picture below. It's very vivid here." Patrick explained.

The few people's eyes moved slightly, and they saw some lifelike patterns on the text, and some numbers were also marked, but they were still unfamiliar symbols.

"Boss Wen, we can understand the pictures, but we can't clearly see the prices you marked. How about I help you translate?" Patrick said.

"No problem, you write it on the paper for me, and I'll hang it up later." Wen Xia took out a pen and paper and handed it over, indicating that he would write from one to ten. Numbers, if you learn ten, you can draw inferences from one to the next. Pass.

However, the local characters were a bit like tadpoles. Even though Wen Xia couldn't understand them, he still took pictures with his brain and simply recorded them.

If one day there is a need for text communication, these may be used.

Patrick marked the numbers from 1 to 10 with local characters one by one, and posted the paper on the price board outside, so that the selling value of everything could be seen at a glance.

"Can 50 be exchanged for two 20-liter bottles of water and two kilograms of rice? Boss Wen was so kind to us before. It turns out she gave us such a great discount."
