The slums have no locks, these purple-skinned people are miserable poor, and the theft of others is the theft of life, and once this happens, there will often be one more corpse in the slum, floating down the river into the sea, and being eaten by sea monsters.

The unwritten laws in the slums are the strongest point to bind people, you must know that death in the slums cannot be called the loss of life, they are just a tool that has lost its usefulness, and even the Noxians with strict laws are unwilling to take over the security here.

Of course, the poverty in the slums deprived the theft of high profits, and the scavengers would follow the old man out in search of the wealth buried in the sand when they were young, because only children could burrow into the narrow nose of the sand swimmer to manipulate the good creature, although Chen Xi still did not know how this worked.

And once the children reached adulthood, they had a better career, working as a hard-working porter in the port, exchanging their physical strength for food.

Until they get old, the port will not look down on these old arms and legs, and they will embark on a scavenging journey again.

In the slums, there is no affection, there is no rest, from birth, after the age of five, everyone will be responsible for their own survival, until death, can rest again!

Opening Old Locke's old house, there was a layer of ash on the old wooden board, and when I stepped on it, there was a sound of decay belonging to the wooden board.

Right next to the ground, the damp sewers had mold overgrown the planks in some places, and all that had been eaten away was a few fibers attached.

On the floor, a dead rat has been dried, and there is a special service near the desert here, which has a high chance of being directly mummified after death.

Picking up the rats, the shriveled rats did not attract any ants and maggots, which made Chen Xi feel a lot better.

Carefully throwing the rat into the sewer, Chen Xi had to be careful along the way with the plank that could collapse at any time.

"Old Locke...... Oh no, Uncle Locke, do you have any new planks? I can't live in your house for nothing! No, I'm going to fix it for you! Also, in this winter, there's no quilt or anything on this bed, and you don't want an extra corpse on your bed! Look, it's ...... from time to time."

"Okay, okay, follow me to get it later!"

How does old Locke feel so wrong, this kid seems to be even more advanced after "respecting" himself!

However, Old Locke also saw Chen Xi's shameless spirit again, and believed that he would be an excellent businessman in the future.

Walking out of the house and finding Seth and them, Chen Xi borrowed some simple cleaning tools from them, and decided to get rid of the dust or something first.

Chen Xi entered the house again, but Old Locke did not enter, and he found Rien.

"Ryan, come with me in a moment, I'm old, I'm not handy, and I need someone to help me. ”

Seeing Ryan and Chen Xi, Old Locke was like seeing the Noxus merchant he had with when he was young, and he decided to make Ryan his heir.

"But, won't Chen Xi go to help you?"

"He doesn't belong here!"

Old Locke came to a conclusion to Chen Xi in one sentence, that's right, Chen Xi can't belong here, they all know it, but Rien must belong here, and his skin makes him only belong here!

"Seth, let Ryan follow me, okay?"

Old Locke, leaning on crutches, asked a few people.

"Haha!

Seth crossed his waist and laughed.

"Ryan has grown up, he is no longer fit to be a sand swimmer rider, he can only barely get in now, we are also looking for the next child, Aaron's Cady is only six years old, he is just right, and Aaron is also old, he was fired from the port, and he is planning to join us!"

Seth's eyes flashed with joy, he was really happy, in the slums, everyone could only fight for their own lives, even if it was the death of their relatives, they couldn't let them stop, when Cologne died, Rian didn't even take a second look, because he knew that as long as he looked at it more, there would be five corpses left behind! This is what Cologne taught him.

And old Locke was the only one in the entire slum who had escaped this fate, and Ryan was a good boy, and he deserved it.

Old Locke left, taking Rien with him, of course Rien still lives here, Chen Xi looked at the getting dark, most of the house has been cleaned up, and now there is only a quilt missing.

Hurriedly ran to the previous cabin and got a quilt from there, and came back with Lien, Chen Xi was finally able to sleep well, even if the quilt was a little damp, with yellow water stains on it, and these patches, it was better than the bone plate of the sand swimming beast!

Early the next morning, Chen Xi got up and was about to call Rien to the antique cabin, but found that Rien didn't know when it would pass.

When he came to the antique shop, it was still not the time to come here to work, so he found some planks and was about to go back and repair the house, and old Locke gave him a patterned hammer, on which the rod was obviously a part of some ancient instrument.

Regardless of these, after a cheeky meal, Chen Xi returned home and repaired the floor, wall panels, and roof with wooden planks, and now he is glad that he has worked in the decoration company for two months in the past two years!

Of course, if the decoration company sees his "masterpiece", it probably won't admit that Chen Xi's craft was learned from them!

Anyway, the eighteen-square-meter house was a little angry, Chen Xi walked out of the house, and Seth happened to be sorting out the animal meat that he had just bought from the market.

Of course, Chen Xi, who learned the information, was deeply disgusted with this kind of meat retribution.

The unique biota of the desert, the Milos Swarm, is a domestic dog-sized insect that can only be eaten with the flesh of the thick front and belly, but the taste is extremely poor.

Fortunately, this insect is extremely abundant and cheap, and it is the main source of dry food for scavengers.

The Milos Swarm is one of the dangers that scavengers face in the desert, but when scavengers buy this meat, the vendors often give them some saliva sacs that are unique to the Milos Swarm, which can confuse the swarm and save your life at a critical time!

But this did not reduce Chen Xi's dislike for this dark brown meat, and he felt sick to his stomach when he thought of eating this thing with relish in the desert.

"Old Locke, did you know you well before?"

Unwilling to look at the production process of the jerky in front of him, Chen Xi asked Seth casually while thinking about how to persuade Kosos not to prepare this dry food for himself.

"Old Locke, originally a middle-aged porter who worked with Cologne, but by chance, he rescued a merchant in Noxus with Cologne. ”

Seth stopped the work he was doing, moved the stool on the side and sat down, Chen Xi continued to listen while thinking about getting one from Old Locke in the afternoon.

"The merchant didn't repay the favor, he just needed a subordinate who could collect antiques from the bottom, so he chose old Locke. ”

"So old Locke took Ryan because of Cologne?"

"No! it's because of you!"

Seth's words made Chen Xi confused, the business was over, and it seemed that Buffett's possession had disappeared!

Seth didn't continue to speak, he picked up a bag of jerky and climbed up the stairs from the old ladder on the side, now that the sun was shining, it was a good time to produce jerky.
