Chapter 385: The Ups and Downs of Life

"That'...... How much do you get paid a day? Yang Tianzhao wanted to remain calm, but the excitement and anticipation in his eyes had betrayed him deeply.

They are so poor.

Dozens of teenagers and children can only rely on desperate mining of minerals every day to trade a pitiful amount of material with other forces.

It can be said that every day is spent in starvation.

If he can find other ways to make money, of course he is excited.

"I'll pay you five days in advance - a 54 pistol, eighty pistol bullets, a bag of rice, and the rest, and I'll talk about it in five days." Jiang Liushi said in a deep voice.

Now the guns of the Stone Shadow team are still relatively abundant.

From Blood Wolf, Yang Feng and other forces, they all obtained a lot of guns and ammunition.

In particular, there are already a few 54 pistols in the team, and the Stone Shadow team doesn't need them much anymore.

In addition, when leaving, Xiang Xuehai also specially provided them with a batch of food, and now the food resources in the storage space of the base car are abundant.

And rice is dispensable for Jiang Liushi, and it is just right to take it out for trading.

He also knew that the young people in the mining area in front of him lacked what they lacked the most.

"54 pistol?"

Yang Tianzhao almost let the corners of his mouth flow down.

In a world infested with zombies, guns are incomparably precious.

Ordinary people have guns and have the capital to fight zombies and even fight against the supernatural.

Even the 54 pistol, although not as powerful as the rifle, is at least much stronger than their current 64 pistol.

It can make up for the lack of firepower in the mining area.

If you want to get a gun, you usually have to exchange it for mutant beast meat.

Now that he has been a guide for five days with the other party, he can get a 54 pistol, and Yang Tianzhao feels that it is simply pie in the sky.

And there was also a bag of rice.

There is no doubt about the preciousness of food in today's world.

"Okay, I'll promise your hire." Yang Tianzhao hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Although it is more dangerous to enter the urban area of Panzhu, where fish and dragons are mixed, it is definitely worth the risk compared to the reward given by Jiang Liushi.

"But I can't be hired by you for too long, and this mine will be a bit of a problem without me here." Yang Tianzhao added.

"You're being targeted here?" Jiang Liushi understood and asked in a condensed voice.

There are a lot of mines here, and it's a piece of fat. And this group of young miners who are mining is only Yang Tianzhao.

It's not surprising that such a team is being targeted.

"It's a bit of a hassle, indeed. But I can handle it...... These mining children, except for me and a few other teenagers, were all thrown here by the major forces in Panzhu City, they were too young and useless in other forces, so they were thrown over to mine, and they were all hard-working children. They are the same as my brothers, I can't leave them for too long, I have to take care of them! Yang Tianzhao said vaguely and did not say anything to Jiang Liushi.

"How many improvised time bombs and explosives packs do you want to exchange for mutant beast meat, food, or something?"

Yang Tianzhao raised his head, and his mood became a lot higher.

If the other side proposes a deal, it must be sincere.

Otherwise, with Jiang Liushi's strength, if he threatened him with force and violence to do something, he would not dare to refuse at all - the gap in force was too great.

"A bag of explosives, ten catties of mutant beast meat, and a bag of rice. A simple time bomb, thirty catties of mutant beast meat, and a bag of rice. Jiang Liushi said lightly.

"I'll just wait a day or two." After a pause, Jiang Liushi added.

Jiang Liushi has always been cautious.

The information he got earlier proved that Panzhu City was more complex, and its armed forces far exceeded those of northern Jiangsu.

Therefore, he must strengthen some of his own attack methods to improve the combat power of his team.

Explosives packs and time bombs are one of the powerful weapons that Jiang Liushi thought of after fighting the mutant puffer fish in Wushui County.

Now he has to rely on the base car for everything, and some battles are definitely inconvenient.

He needed some powerful weapons that were powerful enough to carry and that could be equipped with the rest of the team.

For example, if you let Zhang Hai throw it, it will not be a problem for him to throw a thousand meters with his great strength.

Simple time bomb, when dealing with some big forces, let Sun Kun, who has the ability of flippers and can climb in any environment, install it, which can definitely have a surprise effect.

When he saw Yang Tianzhao, Jiang Liushi knew that he had the conditions to obtain the two things he had imagined.

"Okay, deal, in the next two days, I'll try to make as many things as possible!" Yang Tianzhao had a happy smile on his face and swung his fist hard.

Mutant beast meat, rice, this is what they lack the most.

And the things that Jiang Liushi wanted, in addition to the simple time bomb, the explosives package Yang Tianzhao had done it a few times, and it was often used to blow up mountains in the mine.

There were already a lot of storage in the nearby mines, and there were nitrate and sulfur mines nearby, so it was very easy for him to allocate explosives.

As for the improvised time bomb, it is not a big problem in front of an inventor like him, but it just takes some more time to find materials.

After talking for a quarter of an hour, Jiang Liushi's conditions Yang Tianzhao agreed to all of them.

"Erfan, Xiaowen, have you heard it? Now hurry up and bring a group of people to move all the rare metals that Brother Jiang wants to his car. Then bring that bag of rice back! Don't forget, there are also 54 pistols! ”

Yang Tianzhao was very happy, and patted the shoulder of the young man named Erfan next to him.

The two young men who followed Yang Tianzhao in were still terrified just now, but now when they heard the content of Yang Tianzhao's transaction with these foreign robbers, they felt like they were in a dream.

It was still fish on the chopping board just now, and now it has turned over all of a sudden?

This is a big upswing and a big implementation...... Agitated!

After Er Fan and Xiao Wen hurriedly ran out, soon, Jiang Liushi heard a burst of cheers in the mine outside.

The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and these miner boys were too satisfied.

The young miners in the mine cave learned about the deal from the mouths of Er Fan and Xiaowen who ran out excitedly, and the atmosphere that had just been suppressed was suddenly swept away.

The way they looked at Zhang Hai also changed from that kind of vigilance and hostility to the hungry eyes that only the big money owners have.

At that moment, a group of young miners took the initiative to carry out the rare metals and other things needed by Jiangliushi in a hurry.

There was a rumbling sound in the mine.

Jiang Liushi and the others also got on the ore cart and rode the railroad tracks, and went out together.

Now that the conditions have been negotiated with Yang Tianzhao, there is no need for them to stay in the mine.

He just had to wait quietly.

He was sure that these miners didn't dare to play any tricks.

Jiang Liushi's strength is here, and they know the nest of these young miners, and they have other thoughts to find death.

After a group of young miners happily loaded all the rare metals into the car, Jiang Liushi drove the minibus backwards for about 100 meters and drove into an abandoned remote miner's cave next to the road.

After all, in the area of this mine, listening to Yang Tianzhao's tone, outsiders will come to trade.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better to be careful.

As night fell, it was quiet in the base car.

Jiang Zhuying was still asleep, and the flickering electricity on his body had subsided.

Jiang Liushi checked his sister's condition, calmed down a little, and walked to the cab to rest.

As soon as he squinted, suddenly Ran Xiyu's voice sounded in his mind.

"Brother Jiang, there seems to be an accident in the mine."

Jiang Liushi's brows furrowed slightly, and when he turned around in the dark, he saw that Ran Xiyu had sat up.

Her expression was solemn, and she looked down as she tried to scout the situation in the mine.

"There were a dozen of them, and two of them were Adepts...... It seems that there is a fight! ”

Through Ran Xiyu's shared spiritual vision, Jiang Liushi saw two unusually bright red spots entangled together.

There was also a faint red spot that disappeared all at once.

The red specks are spiritual energy, and once it disappears completely, it only represents one thing - death!

Bang Bang Bang!

At this time, a series of gunshots and screams rang out in the dark night.

All of a sudden, Zhang Hai, Sun Kun, Zero and others, who were asleep, all opened their eyes.

"Zero, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun come with me, the others stay here, Ran Xiyu, you keep investigating."

Jiang Liushi dropped a sentence, put the 54 pistol in his waist, and carried a Type 95 automatic rifle in his hand.

In rocky places, the sniper rifle has a bad angle of view, and it is not as good as the Type 95 automatic rifle.

As soon as he jumped out of the minibus, Zero was the first to pass him.

In the dark, Zero's flowing figure resembles a cheetah, extremely agile and does not make a sound.

Zhang Hai and Sun Kun both took shotguns and followed behind Jiang Liushi.

"Brother Jiang, they all rushed to the mine!"

As soon as he approached the mine, Jiang Liushi's voice sounded in his mind again.

Jiang Liushi sighed in his heart, rushed to the mine? That's the trouble.

In that cramped environment, the danger factor will become greater.

Walking in front of the mine, Jiang Liushi saw Zero standing at the entrance of the mine.

"Captain, a bald adult is dead, with a sharp metal object like a fork piercing his head. There are still a lot of blood stains and footprints in other places, and there should have been quite a few people here just now. Zero looked at the corpse on the ground and said calmly.

There had apparently been sporadic heavy fighting, with a bloody adult dead on the ground and a large pool of blood at the entrance to the mine.

The smell of blood was thick in the air.

"Zhang Hai, Sun Kun, you are guarding the entrance of the cave. I'll go in with Zero! ”

Looking at the swarthy cave, Jiang Liushi instantly made a decision in his heart.

In such an environment, visibility is low.

Zero has a cat-like bloodline awakening.,See things in the dark like day.,Good at assassination and lurking.。

He has evolved neurologically in the brain domain, and is also able to see at night and react quickly.

In comparison, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun have low visibility at night, and it will be more dangerous to enter.

Through the sharing of Ran Xiyu's spiritual vision, Jiang Liushi was able to judge the two supernatural beings who entered the mine.

One of them must be Yang Tianzhao.

The sharp wound on the adult's skull must have been caused by Yang Tianzhao.

Yang Tianzhao's ability seems to be something like a metal sharp, and when he was robbed at noon today, Jiang Liushi vaguely saw Yang Tianzhao stab the puppet man's thigh.

As for the other Ability, Jiang Liushi believed that he and Zero could handle it.

He had just negotiated a deal with Yang Tianzhao, but he didn't want Yang Tianzhao to die like this.

Compared with many ill-intentioned adult survivors, Jiang Liushi wants to find a simple-minded young survivor like Yang Tianzhao to cooperate.

After the order was arranged, Jiang Liushi and Zero did not take the minecart, and tiptoed along the railroad tracks to the mine hole.

After all, minecarts are too noisy and can cause unnecessary danger when entered.

In the pit at the end of the tracks, more than a dozen people armed with machetes and rifles followed behind a big man, holding their breath and slowly moving forward.

It was pitch black in the mine.

The solar lights are off.

"Little cub, cry for me!"

In the darkness, a broken gong said viciously.

The big man who spoke had thick hairs all over his body, each like a steel needle.

His hands had turned into a pair of claws, his thick flippers clung to the ground, his ears were wolf-like, and his eyes shone in the dark.

It was dimly lit, but he could see it clearly.

In his big fan-like palms, he grabbed two arms, two eleven or twelve-year-old boys.

The teenagers were already injured, and the flesh and blood on their thighs turned out.

Now Ruan Dingfa's sharp claws bent, and the sharp claws like blades had pierced into the arms of one of the young men, and blood flowed immediately.

The boy snorted, but gritted his teeth and did not scream, his face pale from excessive blood loss, but he was very hard.

"Brother Amaterasu, don't come out, they have guns in their hands!" The young man who was stabbed in the flesh and blood of his arm suddenly said loudly.

His voice echoed through the long, dense cavern.

"Okay, hard bones!" Hearing the boy's shout, the beast powerhouse laughed hideously, took the gun of one of his subordinates, and pressed the boy's head.

"I see that your bones are hard, or your bullets are hard!"

He was about to shoot when suddenly a figure flashed from a nearby mine, and a large handful of metal powder was thrown out of his head and face.

The powder smelled so pungent that it spilled all over the body.

The air was also filled with the smell of metal debris.

"Who is it?" Caught off guard, the beast powerhouse roared: "Quick, turn on the hat light!" ”

Suddenly, the two big men behind him, the miner's lamp hat on their heads, shone out two beams of light, illuminating the things on the beast ability.

The dark tunnels were also much brighter.

Under the light of the hat lamp, the beast powerhouse could see it completely clearly, their group of people were covered in dense silver-gray metal powder, and with the most on his body, his hair was all silver ash.

"Ruan Dingfa, you shoot, I sprinkled magnesium powder. Hmph, before the end of the world, you yourself were an old miner in these state-owned mines, you should know that magnesium powder is easy to explode, right? Here is the bottom of the mine again, and you know what the consequences of the big bang will be. ”

At this time, in the cave, Yang Tianzhao gritted his teeth and slowly walked out.

"Magnesium powder? Are you a three-year-old when I am a three-year-old? Magnesium powder explodes so easily, aren't you afraid that your gang of cubs will die with you? Ruan Dingfa's face was hideous, but the finger that pulled the trigger stopped, and there was a hint of hesitation under his eyelids.

He didn't dare to joke with his life.

"I'm barefoot and I'm not afraid to wear shoes!" Yang Tianzhao's face was pale, and he said word by word.

In a few caves behind him, some teenagers and children poked their heads out and looked at Yang Tianzhao worriedly.

Like the beast ability on the opposite side, Yang Tianzhao's pupils flashed with strange green light, obviously he also had the ability to see at night, and spikes like steel needles appeared all over his body.

"Ruan Dingfa, I give Wang Xifu's big bastard so much iron ore every month, aren't you enough? Want to exterminate us? Yang Tianzhao said hatefully.

Ruan Dingfa smiled.

"It's different. In the past, Lord Wang Xifu only wanted mines, but now he not only wants mines, but also people, and he can trust people. You should know that the Berserk Alliance is now fighting with the Falling Star Society, and this time it will be fierce, and I am afraid it will not work without distinguishing a winner or loser. And we found out that you secretly traded with the Falling Star Society, and you want to be offended on both sides, hehe, this is not good. Ruan Dingfa smiled.

He licked his tongue again.

"Besides, you little cub kicked me out of the mine, and I've always wanted revenge for this revenge!"

As soon as his voice fell, he threw the two teenagers in his hand towards Yang Tianzhao.

Behind it is a hard ore, if these two teenagers are allowed to fall, with Ruan Dingfa's strong strength, they will definitely crash into a pile of flesh and blood.

Yang Tianzhao snorted, and the metal needles on his hands had to be put away violently, catching the two teenagers.

At this moment, Ruan Dingfa had a pair of ten fingers with long, sharp bone blades, and tore them at his neck.

"I can kill you without shooting!" Ruan Dingfa smiled hideously.

Yang Tianzhao just threw the two teenagers aside, and could only parry them in a hurry.

In an instant, he only felt a great surge of power, and the metal spikes of the arm that resisted the bone blade actually broke apart.

His whole body was also staggered by the great force that was chopped down.

"Hehe, you stinky boy can't do it now? Wasn't it arrogant before? There isn't enough mutant beast meat to eat, and it's painful to drop in strength, right? Ruan Dingfa smiled and pounced again, the bone blade in his hand still slashing at Yang Tianzhao.

Yang Tianzhao's heart sank, he and Ruan Dingfa used to be people in state-owned mines.

After the end of the world, a large number of miners turned into zombies, and only he and Ruan Dinh Phat evolved into supernatural beings.

But Ruan Dinh Phat was not a good bird, relying on his own strength to enslave the other surviving miners, but Yang Tianzhao and a group of people attacked him and drove him away.

In the past, Yang Tianzhao's abnormal ability could definitely suppress Ruan Dingfa.

But now he has always lacked mutant beast meat to eat, and his abnormal ability has been greatly weakened.

At this moment, a graceful figure suddenly fell from the top of Ruan Dingfa's head.

The dagger flashed with cold light, mercilessly slashing at Ruan Dingfa's neck.

"Who?" Ruan Dingfa was taken aback, and the bone blade in his hand instantly slashed more than a dozen times.

In a series of bells, bells, bells, and bells, he couldn't get rid of the elegant figure in front of him.

Standing in front of him was a cat-eared Lori girl, the dagger in her hand was waving like rain, and her steps were light and elegant like a ghost.

One moment to his left, the next to his head.

The explosiveness, agility, reflexes and knife skills are all amazing.

Ruan Dingfa couldn't get rid of it all of a sudden.

He roared wildly, and the bones of his whole body sounded like a clatter, clattering bean, and he was about to exert his strength.

The cat in front of her, Lori Girl, suddenly jumped behind him, and her elegant figure appeared in front of the two big men with rifles.

Brushing the two sharp cold rays, the hands of the two big men holding guns were cut off at once, and they screamed again and again.

The spear in his hand was copied in the hand of the cat Lori girl, and then turned around and looked at Ruan Dingfa very indifferently.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind Ruan Dinh Phat and the others.

Jiang Liushi walked out with a Type 95 submachine gun in his hand, and the muzzle of the black hole was aimed at Ruan Dingfa.

"You...... Who are you? This...... There's magnesium powder everywhere, and if you shoot it, it's going to cause a big explosion. You and I are going to die! Ruan Dingfa's face turned pale.

He recognized the gun in Jiang Liushi's hand, a Type 95 automatic rifle.

This gun is very powerful, and at such a close distance, it is more than enough to defeat him.

"Big Bang?" The corners of Jiang Liushi's mouth lifted a mocking smile, and the Type 95 automatic rifle in his hand burst into flames.

Ruan Dingfa's huge beast incarnation body, a large hole was blown out of his chest, and he flew upside down a few meters away, falling heavily on the mine wall, his eyes wide open and dying.

He didn't expect that Jiang Liushi would really dare to shoot until he died.

Yang Tianzhao also roared at this time and pounced on the group of big men.

In the face of the two abilities of Zero and Yang Tianzhao, there was a group of ordinary survivors who did not have guns, although they were strong, they were only strong lambs.

A moment later, more than a dozen bloody corpses lay in the cave.

Blood soaked the ground softly.

"Brother Jiang, thank you!" Yang Tianzhao was covered in blood, tired and panting, standing in front of Jiang Liushi, his eyes were full of gratitude.

If Jiang Liushi hadn't come over in time, this time it would have really been over.

The other young miners looked at Jiang Liushi and the others with gratitude and awe.

"Nothing. I didn't get my hands on the explosives pack or improvised time bomb I wanted, and I won't let you die. Jiang Liushi said lightly.

"Uh......" Yang Tianzhao was speechless for a while.

"Brother Jiang, how do you know that I didn't sprinkle magnesium powder?" Yang Tianzhao couldn't help but say.

"First, magnesium powder is so easy to explode, it's very hot here, and a little walk around it will rub sparks and cause a big explosion. Second, you are the one who values the lives of your brothers, and you will not let them die with them. Jiang Liushi raised two fingers.

Yang Tianzhao was speechless for a while, and there was a different kind of emotion surging in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Liushi.

"But Brother Jiang, you are outsiders. This Ruan Dinh Phat is one of the eight district chiefs of the Berserk War Alliance, Wang Xifu's person. If he dies, Wang Xifu will definitely send someone to the mine to investigate, and it will be a big trouble. Yang Tianzhao said worriedly.

After experiencing a life-and-death battle, he actually had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with Jiang Liushi, and was worried about the safety of Jiang Liushi and others.

"If that Wang Xifu is looking for trouble, kill it. Anyway, we're just here to do something in Panzhu City, and we'll leave when we're done. Jiang Liushi was calm, as if describing a small thing that was easy to do.

Jiang Liushi, who has a base car, is really not afraid of the forces of Panzhu City and the head of the eight districts.
