Their destination oasis is in the northwest of the Extralegal Land, and they have to cross almost the entire Extralegal Land to get there, so the turtle dove and the little worm are not too anxious, after all, the distance is too far, and they can't rush to come, so they simply relax their hearts, anyway, they will arrive at that place sooner or later.

It's been more than half a month since I left Candy City, and there is not much water in the modified pickup, so I looked for it on the map, and finally found a small place called Huangsha Town nearby, but unfortunately Huangsha Town is not in the route and needs to be rerouted.

So when the two of them arrived at Huangsha Town, it was three days later, the water had been drunk a day ago, and he had not drunk water for a whole day and a night, and when he got out of the car, the turtledove's throat was so dry that it was about to erupt into fire, and he licked his lips with his tongue in vain, but found that his tongue was no better than his lips, and the surface was dry like sandpaper.

Worm is in much better condition than he is, for the simple reason that she has canned fruit to eat.

……

The scale of Huangsha Town is small, the architecture here is typical of the western style, including the residents here are also full of cowboy atmosphere, the turtle dove and the little worm just arrived here and couldn't help but look around, but the little worm is looking at the clothes that those people are wearing, and the turtle dove wants to see where to drink water.

"Wow, look at the denim scarf around that person's neck, isn't it handsome, or I'll get you a cowboy hat later, no, no, your appearance is not suitable for dressing up as a cowboy."

The turtledove squinted at the insect for a long time, and then the insect took his gaze back and said in a loud voice:

"Okay, okay, let's go find someone to change some water first, look at you, obviously like a child, you still say that you don't like sweets, how delicious canned fruit is, you just don't eat it."

Silently, Ikaruga pulled out a backpack from the back of the car, which contained a lot of food, which he was about to exchange for water from the townspeople.

Huangsha Town is worthy of this name, the streets of the town are full of yellow sand, and the sound of "creaking" will be made when stepping on it, and few outsiders seem to come here, so pedestrians have stopped to watch after discovering the turtle dove and the small worm, and some people are pointing at it from a distance, which makes people very uncomfortable.

……

Fortunately, Huangsha Town is a little smaller, but there is still a place in the town that can provide "exchange" business, through the guidance of a kind resident, the turtledove and the little worm came to a building made of wood, pushed the door open, and the turtledove walked in first with a backpack.

Facing the wooden counter more than half a person high, behind the counter stood an old white man with glasses, his body looked a little bloated, with a small head and small eyes, and the whole person gave people a feeling of "shrinking", but the turtledove suddenly saw the cunning and philistine in his small eyes.

Ikaruga used to deal with people with small eyes, such as Liu Hailong, so he knew how to see the way through the other person's small eyes.

"Change the water."

Ikaruga put his backpack down on the counter and said with ease.

After so many years of wandering alone in the extralegal land, it was not the first time that he had exchanged water with people with food, and he had experienced more than one formal or informal occasion, and he naturally behaved very casually at this time.

The old white man's movements were also quite skillful, he unzipped the backpack, counted the contents in a few seconds, raised his eyes, and the old white man gave his own quote:

"You two, five days."

Turtledove glanced back at Xiao Worm, "Two people measure water for five days", to be honest, this price is a bit low, but there is only one place nearby in Huangsha Town that can replenish water, so he needs to ask Xiao Worm's opinion.

"Ten days."

The worm walked over to the counter and held out ten fingers.

The old white man was not frightened by Xiao Worm's words, doing business was originally a matter of asking for a price and paying back the money on the ground, he had been in charge of this exchange for so many years, and he had never seen any scenes, big or small.

"Six days at most."

The old white man shook his head stubbornly.

"Such a big backpack, the food in it is enough for three adults to eat for a week, and you will quote us the price of water for six days?" The worm leaned forward and said in an aggressive tone, "You are so black-hearted in business, who will dare to deal with you in the future?" ”

"In the desert, clean water is more important than food."

The white old man's attitude was as steady as Mount Tai, and he pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his hand, as if he had eaten the two young men.

"Eight days."

The worm gritted his teeth and gave his final offer.

The white old man looked at the turtledove who had been standing on the side for a long time without speaking, and knew that this little girl was the one in charge of the two, and seeing that the little worm had already grabbed the backpack with his right hand and was ready to leave here, he weighed it and finally nodded.

Eight days of clean water for so much food, this wave is not a loss.

……

"Okay, you."

Taking advantage of the fact that the old man of the white man counted the food in the backpack again, the turtledove quietly gave the little worm a thumbs up, and the little worm proudly raised his head, and his face was full of "Don't look at who I am", and when she saw that the old white man had finished counting, she said:

"Our car was parked outside with buckets of clean water."

The old white man didn't respond to the worm's words, he took care of himself and took out the backpack full of food under the counter, took out eight glass bottles full of water, and placed them on the counter.

The little worm's brow furrowed tightly, and the turtledove instantly restrained his smile.

"What do you mean?"

The little worm stopped the turtledove who was about to go berserk, and lay on the counter with his upper body, holding his chin with one hand, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you are too much of a joke. ”

Who knew that the white old man was not moved at all, and he said without changing his face and without a beat:

"That's the amount of clear water for the two of you for eight days."

Well, now the bug is sure he's not kidding.

With a fist on the solid wood counter, eight glass bottles were shocked and collapsed into pieces, two of them rolled directly to the ground and shattered, and the water flowed all over the ground, but the turtledove didn't look at it again.

"This is eight days' worth of clear water?" Turtledove tilted his head, "If your old man is suddenly confused, then I don't blame you, I can give you a chance to start over, so please think about it, how much water should be in eight days." ”

"Now you only have six days left."

The white old man's words had completely angered the turtledove, and he had seen black eating black, but he didn't expect that one day he would be eaten on his head, and grabbed the white old man's collar, and the turtledove almost lifted him up from behind the counter.

As soon as there was some movement, the side doors on either side of the counter opened, and out of them came seven or eight strong men who looked like thugs, one of whom was particularly huge, and whose arm was even thicker than the waist of a turtledove by two turns.

The atmosphere became tense, and Ikaruga was ready for battle, and at this moment, the door of the exchange behind him opened, and a man in his mid-thirties walked in.
