466 is a disaster that cannot be avoided
In addition to the momentum of eating and the gesture of holding things are more feminine, the posture of walking is more revealing of identity. Even though she has deliberately changed, she can't hide Hong Tao's countless eyes.
If the young man was also present, Hong Tao would definitely let him smoke a cigarette before shooting. Well-trained and very poisonous, all dedicated people should be rewarded, no matter what they do. There is no high or low in the three hundred and sixty-five lines, only the division of labor is different.
At about one o'clock in the middle of the night, the street was finally cleared, and each shop moved back its own tables, chairs, and grills, and sent people to clean before closing their doors and preparing to rest.
It seems that this kind of carnival-like activity is not the first time today, as long as there are more displaced people, no one needs to call for it, and it will naturally take shape.
Hong Tao still went to the old place, and he still dozed off frequently, paying attention to the movements on the street and in the hotel all the time. Until dawn, except for a few wild cats or weasels probing their brains to sniff the smell of meat and rummating in the place where they dumped the garbage, no one came out to walk around.
"Bang bang...... "Just as the sun was just showing half of his face in the east, a strong man came out of the blacksmith's shop, and even though the temperature was a little low in the early morning, he was still wearing short sleeves, yawning and stretching his waist while picking up a hammer, and striking it on a broken iron plate hanging at the door of the blacksmith's shop.......
As if it were the bell of a class, the originally quiet streets soon became agitated, and blacksmiths and grocery stores took off their thick door panels and window guards and opened their doors to prepare for business.
The inn was even more noisy, and groups of homeless people wearing torn cloaks of various colors, carrying large and small packages, walked towards the river in groups of three or five.
There was also a bald man standing in the middle of the road, shouting, urging his homeless hired workers not to be lazy, to bring their tools and assemble quickly, and threatening that if they could not pull back enough weight of steel bars today, they would not have dinner.
Obviously, this guy is a foreman who recycles scrap steel, and he and the homeless people he hired are not going to the rubble to find valuable materials, but to pick up scrap at the edge of the rubble, and by the way, tear down the house to collect scrap bar.
Although this kind of work has a low income and can only barely make ends meet, it is the first choice for many displaced people. They don't have the ability or guts to find valuable supplies from the zombie pile, so they can only do this kind of work, and they can't wait to starve to death.
This made Hong Tao breathe a sigh of relief, he came late yesterday, and he really didn't know that there were more than 300 people living in the hotel on this street. If they all go to Korla City to find treasures, then they don't plan to get close, and there are too many people who are prone to accidents.
Hong Tao did not rush to cross the river, but sat in the corner and watched the old blacksmith repair the trap. He was not in a hurry, there was no need to rush to get on the ship with so many people. There is only one small iron boat by the river, which can send twenty or thirty people at a time. His two horses have to occupy half of the space, and he will probably be scolded if he goes.
It just so happened that I took advantage of this time to eat breakfast, most of the homeless people obviously didn't have breakfast, so they couldn't be too ostentatious, and they had to shrink into their cloaks and eat secretly.
"Whoa......" had just taken a bite of the compressed biscuit and was about to touch the kettle, but the water fell from the sky and was still warm. This one's face is ticking straight down the snow mirror.
"Ah......" Someone at the door of the hotel whispered, and the black shadow disappeared in a flash.
", I'm all Youluo, and I dare someone splash it with footwashing water, I really don't know how to write dead words!" The other party flashed fast, and Hong Tao's small eyes saw faster. The guy was holding a copper basin in his hand, and if it wasn't for the footwater, it wouldn't be clean.
"Brother, brother, I'm so sorry, my companion just woke up, and his eyes haven't opened yet, he really didn't see it on purpose. So, how about I have breakfast? ”
Just as Hong Tao got up and was about to go to the store to ask who had eaten the bear's heart leopard gall, a short-haired man walked out of the hotel quickly, and came to apologize and make amends. Seeing that Hong Tao was holding half of the soaked compressed biscuit in his hand, he quickly took out a piece of wrapped hands from his arms and handed it over.
"If this friend of yours doesn't correct the problem of orchid fingers, eating slowly and washing his face with warm water, he will be unlucky sooner or later."
Hong Tao didn't take the compressed biscuit, threw half of the piece in his hand into the horse ring, picked up the package and saddlebag and left. When the two of them staggered their bodies, he confessed in the man's ear, and didn't even look at the guy with his head down standing a few meters away.
The apology is the old man who stood on the table last night to persuade everyone not to fight and hurt people, and was identified by the innkeeper as a rebel. It shouldn't look that old, but there are a bit more wrinkles and gray hair on the face. It may be that I haven't had time to put on my glasses in the morning, but the indentations on both sides of the bridge of my nose are quite obvious.
And the guy who splashes himself with water, and now stands far behind and pretends to be honest, is the woman who is seen through by himself. This guy really doesn't know whether to live or die, and he washes his face with warm water in the morning, so why don't he take a bath.
It is good that the homeless people can wash their faces with the river water every day, and those who go to the river to take a bath in half a month are particularly particular. Even the homeless people in the Yining settlement don't dare to live in such luxury, and those who can develop this habit can't be said to be 100% not homeless, but it also increases the suspicion out of thin air.
Originally, I didn't need to warn them, but I only killed someone for this last night, and if they didn't restrain themselves and continue to be exposed, they were finally caught by the secret agents of the ascetic society, and the young man died in vain, and he wasted a bullet in vain.
The people in the blacksmith shop are very diligent and trustworthy, since they have collected cigarettes, the first job in the morning is to repair Hong Tao's trap, and the three of them clanged and quickly changed the springs.
But when Hong Tao led the horse out of the hotel and walked to the river ferry, he found that the five people were actually standing on the pier, and it took more than 20 minutes for the ferry to come back.
"Brother, can you discuss something?" The bespectacled man lifted his hood and walked over to hand him a cigarette.
"I won't ......" In the face of such a strange thing, Hong Tao didn't even hide it, and directly opened his eyes and said nonsense. He was obviously holding a cigarette when he first came to the dock, and now he is reminding the other party: I am very vigilant, and I don't like you, don't be uncomfortable.
......The man with glasses did not speak again, and waited until the boat reached the opposite shore, and after everyone had walked a few hundred meters, there was no one around before he blocked Hong Tao again.
"We're going to the west, there's a guy who's not fit for a long journey, and wants to hire you and your horse, and see what price is right?"
Hong Tao has been parked by the river since he got off the boat, trying to wait for these five people to walk to the front. He now has two pistols with the safety open, and a total of 27 rounds in the magazine.
There are two horses as cover, and the first strike against them is 5 short and the odds are even. If you can form a confrontation and you are not seriously injured, the odds of victory can be increased to 80%, and then automatic rifles and grenades can come in handy.
"Hire or rob?" The fifty percent chance is not low, and Hong Tao is very confident.
“…… It's just the two of us, and they'll take the route south, and there's no chance of grabbing. The man with glasses smiled and waved his hand behind him slightly, and the two strong men slowly walked towards the south with the thinner man, only the suspected woman did not move.
"Aren't you afraid that I will turn my face halfway and snatch her away and sell her? If I'm right, she's not very old, and she'll definitely sell it to the penance club for more than you gave me. This makes Hong Tao a little unclear, if there is still hope of winning with five people together, wouldn't the winning rate of two people be lower now.
Don't think about tracking or something, from here to the south or to the west is a flat river, there is no terrain to use, the naked eye is a few kilometers away, how to follow.
Follow the trail? I think so much about watching too many movies, and playing this set in the forest may be okay, but in the terrain where wetlands, next door, and deserts interact, it's a joke.
Although there has been a lot of precipitation in recent years and some vegetation, the desert has not yet become an oasis. There is no need for strong winds, three or four levels can be full of sand and dust, even if you walk on stilts and deliberately leave small pits, there will be nothing covered up in the blink of an eye.
