Iron Slag walked out of Iron Mountain Town with the girl, and then walked on the gravel road for about twenty minutes......

The girl looked up and saw that they had come to the foot of a low mountain. A fence made of twisted iron sheets and steel bars was built on it, and several container containers were scattered on the hill. She couldn't help but think of the fairy tale books she had read later, which were like the robbers' castles depicted in the stories, chaotic but sturdy.

The two of them climbed the low hill up the stone staircase, and Iron Slag entered the code in front of the door. With the sound of mechanical gears rubbing, the rusty iron door slowly rises. Iron slag let the girl stay where she was, then drew his machete and went in to check it, and only after making sure that there was no danger did he signal the girl to enter the door.

The wall is about 500 square meters, with five shipping containers in the middle, and the ground is full of all kinds of objects, including tables and chairs, tires, wooden boxes, oil drums, radios, iron cabinets......

The girl carefully observed that after the iron door was closed, the young man's tense nerves were visibly relaxed. Looking at the changes of the teenager, she deeply appreciated the ruthlessness and cruelty of the surface world. The weak are in this place, and there is hardly any room for survival.

After a while, Iron Slag pulled a chair and sat down, and began to inquire about the girl's situation.

"My name is Yugo Lombard, and this sister allows you to call me by my name." The girl is proud.

Iron Slag gave a lazy "um" to indicate that he understood.

The boy's languid attitude seemed to cause displeasure in Yugo Lombard, who, "You should not despise the friendship and goodwill of a Lombard. ”

"Can Lombal's friendship and goodwill be eaten?" Iron Slag asked lightly.

You Ge suddenly blushed with anger, and his breathing was a little short, "The Lombal family has a respected status, and one day, you will pay a heavy price for your attitude today!" ”

Iron Slag chuckled, stood up and walked towards You Ge.

"What do you want to do...... the girl looked at the iron slag's malicious smile, remembering the ferocity of the young man in front of her, and her anger instantly turned into deep cowardice, and she involuntarily took a step back.

"I think you're going to pay for what you're doing now." Then, the iron slag grabbed You Ge, picked it up and walked to the container.

You Ge kept struggling, patting the young man on the shoulder, "Villain! Bandit! Demon! Put me down. ”

Iron slag kicked open the door of the container, and the afternoon sun shone in. It was neatly furnished and had a cleanly cleaned bed.

When she saw the bed, the girl stopped struggling and said in a pleading tone, "You Ge is wrong. ”

"And then?" Iron Slag asked.

"Then You Ge will talk well."

So...... "Iron slag didn't seem satisfied."

"So You Ge will tell Brother Sù what he knows." The girl replied earnestly, as well-behaved as a cat.

Satisfied, the Iron Slag put her down and motioned for her to continue. The girl sued sù iron slag, she came from the seventeenth silver city. A few days ago, she traveled to City Fifteen in a flying machine. While passing through the endless sea of sand, the aircraft was suddenly attacked by a UFO, and the engine was damaged by bullets. She had to parachute with the other passengers and landed in the desert.

The next day, she meets a group of desert travelers. The men brought her here and sold her to a grocer. You Ge then offered to pay a handsome thank you as long as the Iron Slag could take her back to Silver City Seventeen's military base on the ground.

"Can't you go there?" Iron Slag pointed to Yincheng in the air in the distance and asked.

"That's Silver City Thirteen." The girl shook her head and explained. The higher-ups of Silver City Thirteen had a bit of a holiday with the Lombal family, so she couldn't turn to them for help. She suspects that the attack on the flying machine was led by Silver City Thirteen in order to prevent her from traveling to Silver City Fifteen for the annual council.

"Looks like I can send you to Silver City Thirteen to receive your bounty, it seems a lot easier." Iron slag to.

"They're going to kill you so they don't have to pay a bounty and keep the dead a secret forever."

"You're so smart." Iron Slag sighed.

"Thank you." You Ge smiled slightly, but the next sentence of the iron slag made her smile completely freeze.

"So......" Iron Slag paused, "even if I send you to the military base in Silver City Seventeen, you will get a bullet." ”

"No, it won't!" You Ge was anxious, "You saved the third sister of the Lombal family, they will definitely thank you." ”

"Thank you! And then a 'da-da-da' bullet. Iron Slag waved his hand, "Alright, don't fool me, I've never seen anyone above be nice to those below us." So, I can only send you to Sand City and find a rich man to pay the ransom for you. When the time comes, you can beg him to send you back, and this kind of person values Lombal more for his friendship and kindness. ”

"Actually......" The girl hesitated for a moment, "you are quite handsome and powerful, I can introduce you to the ground forces of Silver City Seventeen." "After three years of service," she enticed, "I can bring you to Silver City Seventeen as a guard for the Lombal family, or ...... My bodyguard. ”

Iron Slag quieted down, as if thinking about You Ge's words. There was a twinkle in his eyes, but it wasn't long before his gaze dimmed and he said to himself, "If someone had said these things to me three years ago, I would have believed them." He looked up at You Ge, "But now, it's impossible!" ”

The young man's words revealed an indescribable vicissitudes. You Ge was silent for a while, and couldn't help asking, "How old are you this year?" ”

Iron Slag was choked by her question, and was speechless for a long time.

"Sue me, you look so mature, you should be in your twenties."

"How old are you?" Iron Slag asked rhetorically.

"I just turned sixteen." The girl put her hands behind her back and stood on tiptoe.

"I'm seventeen." Iron slag casually.

The girl showed a sly smile, "Actually, I'm eighteen years old this year, come on, call my sister." ”

Iron Slag narrowed his eyes, and there was a hint of danger in his gaze. You Ge stared at him without flinching. He only felt an inexplicable anxiety, picked up You Ge in front of him and walked into the container, threw it on the bed and threw it over.

"Call my sister." You Ge's tone was full of provocation.

The warmth and elasticity coming from under him made him feel uncomfortable. At this moment, You Ge was lying on his back on the bed, and the two of them faced each other at close range, and the hot breath spewed on his face when she spoke, which exacerbated his irritability. You Ge's calmness was somewhat unexpected to him, he had expected her to scream and beg for mercy, but it turned out to be like this.

"Remember, you're just a cargo." The iron slag climbed up, faintly to.

"Even if it's a cargo, you can try it." You Ge Jian yì.

"Have a good rest, have water and bread on the table, and leave early tomorrow morning." It's over, and the iron slag head doesn't go back.

Looking at the back of the young man who seemed to be calm but was actually weak-hearted, You Ge pursed his lips and laughed.

The iron slag walked out of the container, immediately opened the big iron door, and went to Lao Niu's repair shop. He's going to retrieve the jet bike, go to Dr. Narcissus to buy some medicine, and get ready to cross the endless sea of sand. In the entire town of Iron Mountain, there are only a few people who can cross the endless sea of sand alone, and Iron Slag is one of them. In that Sea of Death, the temperature reached more than forty degrees during the day and as low as minus thirty degrees at night. All kinds of creatures are buried in the sand, ready to strike a fatal blow at the desert traveler. If you don't prepare enough, you will die in the sand.

Lao Niu's repair shop is located at the foot of a low hill, facing the iron slag base. The workshop covers an area of about 2,000 square meters, surrounded by barbed wire, and is full of old cars, tires, oil drums, various household appliances, waste products, etc. In the middle of the open space are several tin sheds, which are stacked with all kinds of messy parts.

Iron Slag walked into the repair shop and learned the sound of animals, "Moo...... Moo...... Moo......"

Soon, a tall, thin young man with dark skin greeted him. He has deep eye sockets and a particularly wide chin that protrudes forward like a gorilla. The skeleton of the whole body is also very large, and the shoulders are very broad. Although he looks a little thin, the muscles on his body are very solid.

"Brother Niu, I'll get the locomotive and the gun." Iron slag to.

The old cow immediately turned back to the tin shed and rolled out a red locomotive. The locomotive is half a man tall, the body reflects the sheen of metal, and the two wide wheels are close to the ground, which makes it look very smooth. The locomotive is flanked by three oval jet bags. This is a dual-purpose locomotive on the road and in the sand, which usually runs on tires, and after entering the desert, it can retract two wheels and float in the air with six jet bags.

In the endless sea of sand, the jet locomotive is the second life of the traveler. This is because the desert here is home to a huge terrestrial arthropod called the sandworm. It is every desert traveler's nightmare. Adult sandworms are more than 20 meters long, with carapaces all over their bodies, and their bodies are surrounded by two adults, covered with segmented feet. It lurks in the sand and can walk freely in shallow sand and moves very fast. If there is no locomotive, if you encounter a sandworm in the sea of sand, you will immediately catch up and swallow it, and turn into a pile of white bones in its acid-filled body.

"The booster pump I picked up last time has been installed, so it should be more flexible." The old cow arrived.

"And a double barrel, two hundred rounds of ammunition." Iron slag stepped onto the locomotive and debugged it at the same time.

"You're going to Sand City?" Lao Niu asked with concern.

"I bought a girl from Jusang, and I'm going to send it to Sand City to exchange money for the winter."

"Then you're going to find her a good home." Lao Niu repeatedly advised, "Don't hurt others." Then he went into the house and brought a shiny wooden-handled double-barreled shotgun and two strings of red shotguns, as well as a pistol and two cartridges of pistol bullets.

Iron Slag first took the shotgun, hung it diagonally on the left and right circles, and then took the shotgun and tied it to his back. Then, the old cow pulled out the pistol on his waist and handed it to him with a magazine attached. Iron Slag asked curiously, "When have I used this thing?" ”

"It's not for you, it's for that girl, you have to cross the endless sea of sand, you should give her a weapon to defend herself." Lao Niu explained.

"What if she comes to hit me?" Iron Slag asked.

"You can do it yourself." Lao Niu then reminded, "I have checked every shotshot, you can use it with confidence." ”

Iron slag head, the right foot stepped hard, and the locomotive made a smooth mechanical sound. The front display lights up, a hollow blue circle gradually fills, and a synthesized sound comes from the body.

"This charge is so slow, is there a way to improve it?" Iron Slag asked.

"When you go to Shacheng, you can change to a new battery and a new capacitor produced by 'HH Company', which should be able to improve a lot." The old cow replied.

"What are you going to bring?" Iron Slag then asked.

"I don't lack anything, you can go and go back quickly."

The two chatted about trivial matters, and after 15 minutes, the locomotive was charged to 0%. Iron Slag said goodbye to the old cow, twisted the throttle, and drove towards Iron Mountain Town amid the roar of the locomotive.
