Chapter 359: Ashharad

To the east, not far from Dirdara, is the important town of Ashharad in the east.

The capital of the former native Cumenistan.

Now, of course, it's just a bigger city.

Unlike small towns, most of this kind of city is deserted and ruined, with nothing but dilapidated houses.

But for Barrett and his party, who have no place to live, the abandoned houses come to a useful role, allowing them to hide their broken cars and then find shelter from the elements.

Not far away, in a dilapidated bungalow, a mother and daughter lived, and Barrett and the others occupied a small three-story building.

"Let's go buy something and come back, and get some anti-inflammatory drugs by the way." Nightblade's wound was a little inflamed, and Barrett decided to check it out just in case.

Since they are not short of money, the team for procurement this time is a bit large, with Jason Barrett and Mark.

Telling Ace to keep an eye on the surroundings, the three of them headed towards the market across the city.

Walking through the ruined city, the trio try to avoid the homeless people hiding in the ruins.

Other people's lives are not easy in themselves.

"Damn, I'm going to find a chick Shuangshuang." Jason complained unhappily, but now they live in a very far location, and the two goods next to them definitely don't have the idea of drinking flower wine.

Rolling his eyes twice, Jason whispered, "Why don't I pay for one?" Let's use it together, I don't mind. ”

Barrett glanced at him and laughed.

"Yes, your taste is quite heavy, we have a lot of things, and too many people are also a problem."

Jason immediately said, "No, we'll ...... when we leave"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Mark's cold eyes.

“………… All right! Just when I didn't say it. He knew that this matter had stepped on a thunderbolt, so he could only admit defeat.

Mark turned his head around and ignored him.

No, now he is still counting on this kid's car to run away, and Jason can only endure it.

I have to say that with this kid's broken car, they are traveling a lot faster.

In less than a day, they had traveled a full hundred and twenty miles.

You know, this is a three-day trip with your legs.

"What do you need?" Barrett asked, these things are still known to professional Mark.

"Water, oil." It was concise and to the point, and didn't say much.

Nodding, Barrett and the others walked into the market.

The bazaar here is naturally much larger than the town in front of it, after all, it also has a larger population than Dirdara.

It's just scattered among the ruins.

Looking left and right in the bazaar, Barrett and the others found what they were looking for.

Water, oil.

Needless to say, Jason soon carried two wooden barrels and two hundred pounds of water.

oil, it is scary......

"Sixty gallons and sixty gold coins, don't bargain." The boss lifted his glasses and looked at Barrett and said.

"............" one liter of oil can buy three lives......

"Okay, we want two barrels." Although it is expensive, there is no way to buy it or buy it.

After all, money is something to be spent.

In Jason's painful gaze, Barrett pulled out a handful of gold coins to settle the bill.

It was precisely because of this painful gaze that Barrett felt another line of sight, staring at him not far away.

I hope you don't be someone looking for something, damn it.

With a thought in his heart, Barrett picked up two oil drums, asked the boss where to buy medicine, and was told that there was a small clinic on the west side.

He was about to leave, but found that Mark's eyes were fixed on the thing covered with the tarpaulin, and he couldn't move.

"What's wrong?" Barrett asked.

"That's a good thing." Mark said.

The boss of the repair shop turned his head to look over, a little surprised.

"The young man is very knowledgeable!" He wiped the oil from his hand, walked over to the tarpaulin, and gently lifted a corner.

It's about half the size of an oil drum, and it's a little dirty.

"A four-.2-liter V8 engine, which burns gasoline." The boss said, with excitement on his face, this kind of good thing is not available everywhere.

"............" Just by listening to the name, the three of them know that this thing is definitely not cheap.

Barrett was about to leave, but after taking two steps, he found that Mark couldn't move.

“………… Do you want? Barrett asked softly.

Mark nodded and didn't speak.

"My mom, to be honest, how can you afford this thing with your broken car? Stop dreaming, brother! Jason was immediately anxious, to be honest, asking him to take out the money was almost his life, and this thing was a sky-high price.

"I'm afraid my transmission can't handle this thing." Mark shook his head.

Hearing him say this, both Barrett and Jason thought Mark had given up.

But just as he was about to lift his leg, he said, "Can you help me change the car?" I can help you work part-time. ”

The boss looked Mark up and down, and finally his eyes fell on his oil-stained hands that were cracked everywhere.

"It's just an ornament here, and you'd like to be the best, but I'll tell you first, it's very expensive!"

"How much?" Barrett lowered the oil drum in his hand and asked.

"Six hundred gold coins, that's the least." The boss said.

600 gold coins............ I have to say, there aren't many people in the city who can get it, so it's been here for a while.

However, it was a rare post-war engine to be so well preserved, and to be honest, it was the only one in the city.

"............" Hearing this number, Jason pulled Mark up and left, only to see that Barrett did not move.

"I'm grass, why don't you grab it? Grab it a little faster. The muscles on Jason's face contorted, and the price looked like a robbery to him.

"To be honest, we don't have the money to pay for the modifications, and he doesn't have the time to work for you." Barrett ignored him and said calmly.

Seeing Barrett silent for a while, the boss nodded and said, "I know, I'll send your car here early tomorrow morning." Give me a job, the modification fee is free. ”

The work was the hunter's job, and he wasn't worried that Barrett would refuse.

Nodding, Barrett said, "It's a deal, I'll see you tomorrow morning." ”

With that, the three of them left the east side of the market.

"I'll go, you said yes?? That's all we have! Jason's face was sour, but he was just complaining.

The money was all won by Barrett, and he still understood.

"With a good engine, we can go faster, right?" Barrett glanced at Mark and saw that his eyes were full of excitement.

"You're going to have to put in a bit of effort, this thing is going to be more fuel-intensive." With a joking remark, Barrett stepped forward.

Nodding his head again and again, Mark was so excited that he couldn't even speak.

In the clinic, the doctor is a woman of Asian descent.

Very young, about twenty-seven or eighteen, with a pair of glasses.

"My name is Hanyu." The doctor held out his hand and said.

"My name is Barrett." Shaking hands politely, Barrett introduced himself.

"My friend is injured and needs some anti-inflammatories."

Hanyu looked at Barrett, and she immediately understood what kind of injury it was.

Gunshot wounds, hunters are gunshot wounds nine times out of ten, and there are far more fights between people than between humans and animals.

"The warhead was taken out?" Rummaging through the shelves, Hanyu asked.

"Passed through." Barrett replied.

"That's fine, it's iodophor, aspirin." Hanyu placed a greenish-black bottle on the table with a small medicine bottle.

Barrett nodded, glanced at the expiration date, and saw that it hadn't expired.

"There's still a pharmaceutical factory working?" Barrett asked casually.

"Oh? There are not many people who know how to read the expiration date. Fortunately, the pharmaceutical plant is fully automated, and now the largest company in the east is the pharmaceutical company. Hanyu explained.

To put it mildly, the biggest force in the whole of Central Asia, and even in East Asia, relies on drugs, and even the X plan investigated by Barrett is dominated by pharmaceutical companies.

So before anything else was answered, the manufacture of medicines was replied, after all, not all pre-war people died, there were still a small number of people who survived.

"Then this ......" glanced at the medicine, and Barrett knew that it was time to pay the bill.

"Ten gold coins of iodophor and forty gold coins of aspirin." Hanyu finished speaking, writing something on a piece of paper.

Jason's face turned bad again, in his opinion, such a thing was sold so expensive, even darker than the owner of the repair shop!

"Okay." Throwing the two rolls of bandages on the table, Barrett pulled out his money bag.

Seeing him so refreshing, Hanyu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "So refreshing, but I kindly remind you that someone is following you." ”

After speaking, Hanyu didn't talk nonsense, lowered his head and continued to write.

Barrett nodded, knowing that Lufu was going to suffer.

That's right.

Out of the clinic, Barrett handed the oil drum to Mark, and then whispered, "You two go around the south of the city, and I'll come as you go." ”

As he spoke, he walked into the alley and disappeared.

“??” Laboriously carrying the oil drum, Mark was a little puzzled.

"Let's go, little brother." Jason reached out and took a barrel of oil and drove away.

"Where did he go? Not going back? Mark asked in a whisper.

"He's going to solve the problem, and we'll do as he says." Of course, the old driver knew what to do, and all he did now was go around the city until Barrett had killed them all.

From the east of the city to the south of the city, the two walked unhurriedly.

Although Jason was carrying more than 300 pounds of things, he still walked in front.

Mark, who took less, couldn't bear it.

"No, I'm going to take a break." Mark threw the oil drum in front of the door of a dilapidated house and sat down on the steps.

“………… Weak chicken, you really should exercise and exercise. Jason said helplessly, completely ignoring his body like a cow, and there was nothing else in his body except muscles.

With a few turns of his eyes, he pushed open the door of the broken house.

"I'm going to look for a treasure, you're honestly waiting here." With that, he went into the dilapidated house and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

I have to say that in this kind of street, there is not even a living person, only a gust of wind blows, and rags and paper fly everywhere.

"............" Mark actually felt a chill, and he wrapped his leather jacket tightly.

About thirty minutes later, Jason returned, but he was not alone.

Barrett came back with him.

Walking up to Mark, Barrett handed him something.

A pistol.

"Take it, how can there be no self-defense guy these years." Barrett said with a smile.

"This guy only has a pistol on him? Now the spies are getting poorer and poorer. "Jason glanced at the pistol, the M1911, the old man before the war.

"Not just one, it's four." Barrett shook his head, grabbing a handful of bullets and shoving them into Mark's hand, and the rest of the guys only contributed a few bullets.

"The same guy? A man's men? "Of course Jason knows the Tao inside, but it's a little too grand.

Send four spies? Who are they targeting?

"It doesn't have to be one person's subordinate, and it doesn't have to be a standard wholesaler in this city." Barrett teased and lifted the oil drum.

"See? Shame on you, young man, look at you? Jason teased that Barrett had more strength than him, and was just right to make fun of Mark.

"............" Mark has nothing to say, he can't open his mouth to scold the street, saying that you guys are all perverts, I'm a fucking normal person, right?

From the south of the city back to the west of the city, the sky gradually darkened.

Along the way, Barrett dodged some of the guys, and the trio returned safely to their dilapidated house.

There was a faint oil lamp in the room, which Mark used to fix his car.

"Eat something and help him get the medicine." Barrett handed Ace a bag of jerky and whispered.

He also bought a lot of dry food along the way.

Picking up a bag, Barrett headed downstairs.

"What are you?" Jason came up just in time, and he poured a large bucket of water into the small bucket and came up to clean the wound of Nightblade.

"I'm going to give the other side some food." Barrett said.

After saying that, he walked out directly.

“………… If you can't eat it, you have to give it away, are you going to become a saint? Grunting, he walked over to Nightblade and unbuttoned his clothes.

"If it were his comrades-in-arms, he would definitely do it." Ace learned a lot that night, and Barrett told her the story of Thein.

"Comrades-in-arms............ Nightblade sighed, aren't they also his comrades-in-arms now?

Feeling the stinging pain on the wound, Nightblade looked at Jason and scolded, "You bastard, you want to kill me? ”

Jason looked helpless: "My heart hurts, you know?" It's all money. ”

As soon as he remembered that such a bottle of gadget would cost ten gold coins, Jason's hands began to exert force.

"We're poor in an instant, do you know my pain? Loser thing! With tears in his eyes, Jason muttered.

"Hehehe......" The other three people all laughed, this thing is such a virtue.

Barrett knocked on the opposite door.

The emaciated mother carefully protected the child behind her and looked at Barrett warily.

Without speaking, he reached for the grocery bag.

Mother shook her head, and she stepped back.

She didn't dare ......

Shaking his head and placing the grocery bag on the ground, Barrett turned to leave.

Back in his room, closing the door, Barrett smiled.

I hope I can let the mother and daughter last a little longer.

In perception, the mother finally picked up the food bag and began to cry.
