If it weren't for Zhou Gensheng putting his hand on Zhang Dong's shoulder, he really wouldn't have had a chance to realize his small wish in advance. That is to press Zhou Gensheng to the ground and exchange feelings.

Zhou Gensheng's head was beaten into a pig's head in his mind, and Zhang Dong felt that his heart was simply bursting.

Although it is very likely that he will face Zhou Gensheng's revenge in the future, at least Zhang Dong feels that his thoughts are much smoother now, and he will talk about it later!

Humming a little tune, Zhang Dong strode into his small courtyard.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, a smell of meat faintly penetrated into Zhang Dong's nose from the side of the cabin.

His nose twitched, Zhang Dong looked in the direction where the smell of meat was coming from, and saw Yang Ziyi tied her long hair into a long ponytail behind her, holding a plate of barbecue in her hand, and walked out with a smile.

"How's it going, did they spot the herd?"

"Not only have we found a herd of beasts, but we have also found a tide of beasts. Staring at the barbecue on the plate, Zhang Dong said with a chirp. In the absence of seasoning in the wild, Yang Ziyi's barbecued meat is very fragrant and tender, presumably now that there is seasoning, this barbecue should be more delicious, right?

Yang Ziyi's action of putting the plate stiffened slightly, and her eyebrows frowned slightly, "Beast tide? What about the gathering place? Are you going to evacuate?"

"Depending on the size of the beast tide, if it is not large, there is no need to evacuate. Picking up a piece of barbecue meat from the plate and putting it in his mouth, the fragrance suddenly flowed between his lips and teeth, and the wonderful taste made Zhang Dong squint his eyes with satisfaction, "But Old Man Gong asked us to start killing strange beasts outside the forest on the south side of the gathering place this afternoon." ”

Gong Yin knew that he would be able to become stronger by killing alien beasts, so of course Zhang Dong understood that the other party's decision was to let him take advantage of the increase in the group of alien beasts to enhance his strength as much as possible.

After all, according to convention, there is a period of time between the formation of the beast tide when there is an omen. Taking advantage of this process in the middle, as long as you are careful, it is not so dangerous for Zhang Dong now.

"Do you want us to be mercenaries?" Tearing off a small piece of barbecue meat and putting it in his mouth, Yang Ziyi stared at Zhang Dong and asked.

"Mercenaries, what?"

"Every time before the beast tide, the base will temporarily open a trading channel with the gathering place, that is to say, the strange beasts killed in the gathering place can take the organs of the strange beasts to the base to exchange for things. Moreover, the price is much more cost-effective than that of the black market, which is also a means for the base to draw the gathering place into defense when the beast tide comes. ”

"Is there still money to be made?" Zhang Dong's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"yes, there's money to be made. However, it will definitely be very dangerous, after all, it is impossible to tell when the beast tide will form, and if you are unlucky enough to be surrounded by the beast tide, you will die. Yang Ziyi looked at Zhang Dong's face, and for some reason, the beast tide that once made her talk about it change color didn't seem to be so frightened.

"It's not dangerous to go to the black market to trade on the black market this year, and you can meet a giant beast hatchling. Zhang Dong spread out his hands and shrugged his shoulders, hmm...... As long as the system doesn't have brain cramps and issues a tough beast tide task to itself, it shouldn't be a problem to be careful.

"When are we leaving?" Yang Ziyi said.

"I'll leave after dinner, but I shouldn't be in a hurry. "The appearance of Zhou Gensheng being beaten into a pig's head by himself came to mind, and in that way, the speed of eating should be relatively slow, right?

The two chatted and ate, and a plate of barbecue quickly left a pile of bones.

I don't know why, Zhang Dong always felt that Yang Ziyi's eyes were strange when he looked at him, how to say it...... Gentleness seems to be a bit excessive.

Isn't it two years older than yourself? Why do you feel that the other party looks at you like you're looking at your son?!

Sitting in the courtyard, watching Yang Ziyi put away the dishes and chopsticks without complaint and put them in the basin to wash, Zhang Dong's feeling couldn't help but become even stronger.

It seems that when I was on earth, I threw the dishes and chopsticks directly on the table after eating, and my parents also cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks and took them to the kitchen to wash without complaint.

After washing the dishes with his hands and feet, Yang Ziyi sat in the courtyard with Zhang Dong and chatted about the beast tide this time.

The tide of beasts in the wilderness is simply irresistible for gathering places with no high walls and few people, but for those bases, as long as the scale is not particularly huge, there should be no problem in holding it, it's just that there are more or fewer casualties among the soldiers.

Of course, it was not only the soldiers who garrisoned the base that were killed or wounded, but also the large number of residents of the slums within the base.

The defense line is destroyed, the material is consumed, and these problems are always to be solved, and the solution is naturally to squeeze the residents of those slums.

After a large number of beast tides, the organs on the alien beasts used to make weapons and armor will definitely not be missing, but the metal mixed in will need to be mined in large quantities.

Usually the mining farms are all criminals in some bases, and ordinary residents do not need to go.

However, when there was an urgent shortage of goods after the war, in order to quickly restore the garrison, the base would force the residents of the slums to participate in the mining of the mines.

Although most of the mine is within the outer defense line of the base, the outer defense line that has just experienced the beast tide is of course a mess, so the protection of the mine is also like nothing, plus the beast tide has just been dispersed, there will be a large number of small groups of beasts around the base.

Therefore, going to the mine at this time is much more dangerous than usual. Let's put it this way, let those slum dwellers go to the mines to mine ore, and if you choose it, it will be the result of nine deaths.

Of course, in order to ensure the efficiency and quality of mining in the base, the supervisors on the site are all genetic warriors who will only obey orders, as long as you dare to run, it is a dead end, and if you don't run, you may be able to live a few more days. The overseers were also the temporary guards of the mine.

Of course, it's the kind of guard that can hold it, and if it can't hold it, it will retreat directly. After all, alien beasts are not interested in ores. It's a big deal to wait until the small group of beasts retreats, and then the base can transport another group of people.

Therefore, almost all of the ore mined at that time was filled with human lives.

Regarding the cruelty of the last days, Zhang Dong had a new understanding from Yang Ziyi's mouth.

"Brother Dong, let's go?" Xiao Ling's voice came from outside the door.

In response, Zhang Dong put on a small backpack, which contained some things that Yang Ziyi had packed.

Although the plan of the two today is to go over at noon and rush back before dark, Yang Ziyi said that there are always changes and redundant plans in the wilderness, and it is always good to make more preparations.

I have to say that Yang Ziyi, who has rich experience in wilderness survival, is much more meticulous than Zhang Dong in thinking about things. The most important thing is that the other party can read the map.

After eating, Zhang Dong held the map and studied it for a long time, but found that there was a reason why he chose science in the first place.

"What about Gensheng?" walked out with a small bag on his back, and seeing that Zhou Gensheng was not by Xiaoling's side, Zhang Dong asked, while his two eyes kept scanning the surroundings, guarding against the other party's sneak attack at any time.

"Big brother, eat me a jio!"

With Zhou Gensheng roaring angrily, Zhang Dong suddenly felt a force on his buttocks, and the whole person couldn't help but stumble and took a small step forward. The force of the rebound bounced Zhou Gensheng into the air, and after rolling his body several times, he fell to the ground lightly.

Seeing that his sneak attack only made Zhang Dong stumble forward, Zhou Gensheng suddenly fell into deep self-doubt. Rub, no matter how weak my physique is, I still have the physical fitness of a second-order ability, and this kick is actually so effective?!

"Haha, you still want to sneak up on me?"

With a loud laugh, Zhang Dong turned to look at Zhou Gensheng, who was speechless and squatting on the ground drawing circles.

Just kidding, my current physical fitness is more than twice as high as that of a high-level enhancer, plus the double tolerance bonus of steel and iron bones, just your strength to kick me is as ridiculous as a baby of a few years old trying to kick down an adult!

"Hehe, don't blame me, big brother dei. ”

Standing up from the ground, Zhou Gensheng slowly took out a mysterious object wrapped in leaves from behind him, with a wicked smile on his face. The figure moved quickly, and while Zhang Dong opened his mouth to laugh, Zhou Gensheng quickly stuffed the things in his hand into his mouth.

"Hmm...... Bah. Feeling the faint fragrance in his mouth, Zhang Dong took out the lumpy thing in his mouth and put it in his hand, with a puzzled face, "What is this?"

Leaning out to take a look, Yang Ziyi suddenly covered her mouth and laughed.

"What are you laughing at, what is this?"

"I'm guessing you don't want to know. Tears of laughter flowed out, and Yang Ziyi continued: "There are often all kinds of mosquitoes in the wilderness, and this thing has the effect of repelling mosquitoes after it is ignited. ”

"Mosquito coils?" Zhang Dong chirped, he didn't expect that the mosquito coils in this world still have a faint fragrance, and the taste seems to be good.

"And the way it is made is very simple, just dry the feces of some kind of alien beast, and you can do it. Yang Ziyi continued with a smile.

As Yang Ziyi's voice fell, Zhang Dong's face turned green.

"Vomit...... Zhou Gensheng...... Vomit, Lao Tzu, I am inseparable from you!"
