Chapter 51: A New Home
The living conditions in the Hongyi settlement area are much better than those in Hongsi.
It is backed by endless mountains with low shrubs and a small amount of land that can be cultivated.
There are even some mountain springs that can be drunk, but there are not many of them.
Qu Jianlei thought, "What is the situation over there in the Endless Mountain Range?" ”
Crack's face turned pale when he heard this, "You want to climb over the Endless Mountains?" ”
Qu Jianlei knew that the middle of the Endless Mountain Range was a forbidden area, not to mention the harsh climatic conditions, and there were powerful beasts and mutant beasts.
But the thought of Mr. Sai made him feel uncomfortable, and he felt that his situation was quite dangerous.
His sense of security is really too bad, "Do you have any news from the other side of the mountain?" If there is, then we'll be clear. ”
It's not too much to raise you for a winter and change a little news, right?
"...... over there," Rift replied after a moment's hesitation, "It should be a wasteland too, and there are other settlements." ”
Qu Jianlei's brows furrowed, "How's the order?" ”
"What can I do?" Crack spread his hands and replied slowly, "If the order was much better, it would have spread all over the world." ”
"This is not necessarily," Xiao Jing contradicted him, "If someone deliberately sets up information barriers, who can know?" ”
The words "information barrier", he still listened to Brother Fugui, but he felt that it made sense.
Cracks are usually lifeless and lifeless.
But hearing Xiao Jing's words, there was a glimmer of light in his eyes, "It's rare that you can actually think of this......"
"But I'm just an ordinary adventurer, and I know a little more about things in the wild."
Qu Jianlei asked again, "Is it still a settlement of Hongzitou over there?" ”
Crack thought about it for a moment and shook his head, "Probably not...... The main settlement of Hongzi is here. ”
Qu Jianlei asked again, "Have you ever been to the Hongzi General Settlement?" ”
"I'm not worthy," the crack reverted to its half-dead appearance, "and the average person is not qualified to enter. ”
"That's true," Xiao Jing nodded as well, "Ordinary residents of the settlement are not qualified to go. ”
Hearing this, Crack glanced at him, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you familiar with the settlement?" ”
He has been in the settlement for so many years, and he has only entered the settlement twice in total, but he didn't expect this kid to ......
"Something happened at home," Xiaojing replied lightly, "I was the only one who survived, and I could only wander outside." ”
Hearing this, Crack asked thoughtfully, "Is it annoying?" ”
The status of the official residents of the settlement cannot be arbitrarily banned, even if the other party becomes an orphan.
Xiaojing still looked bland, "I'm remembered, I can't keep my family property, I don't want to die yet." ”
Human life in the wasteland is really worthless, and he said it as if he were stating someone else's business.
Crack thought for a moment, and then looked at Qu Jianlei, "You want to cross the Endless Mountain Range, it's also annoying, right?" ”
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei smacked his mouth helplessly and replied in a muffled voice, "As a survivor, who doesn't have a few enemies?" ”
An adventurer like the flower scorpion, although he has resolved his grievances with him, but when they meet again, it is difficult to say.
No survivor can kill all potential enemies.
An existence like Mr. Sai should have been out of the category of "survivor".
Crack didn't doubt what he said, but asked curiously, "You haven't been to Hongyi Settlement, have you?" ”
A winter has passed, and he knows a little about the situation of these two people.
Qu Jianlei nodded silently when he heard this, he couldn't explain that he had offended the people in the general settlement.
But with the experience of the cracks, where can he not guess what he might be afraid of?
He spoke in a deep voice, "Hong Yi's order is very good, even if someone really comes to him, he has to consider the consequences." ”
Qu Jianlei looked at each other expressionlessly.
Crack thought for a moment, then spoke, "If you want to climb over the Endless Mountains, you have to give up your vehicles and a lot of supplies. ”
At this point, it really talks about Qu Jianlei's sore spot, is it easy for him to get this bit of belongings?
Picking up leaks is something that can't be done again, let alone that he escaped from the encirclement and interception of more than a dozen cars.
He smiled helplessly, the problem was that the sense of security was really too bad, "It's a big deal to sell it." ”
However, having said that, there are also a lot of necessities on board.
If he sold them all, how would he climb over the Endless Mountains?
Crack guessed his thoughts, "Why don't you stay here for a while for a while......"
What he means is that during this time, in addition to consuming some items, you can also go into the mountains from time to time.
Even if you get used to it in advance, you can still fight some beasts.
If there was anything going on in Hong Yi, the three of them would just slip away quietly.
The most important thing is that winter has just passed, and it is still unusually cold in the Endless Mountains.
Even if you must go, it is best to choose it in the summer.
The crack also said, "...... I'll try to find out if I can get a map, and even better if I have a smuggling team. ”
Qu Jianlei was finally convinced, but the last sentence still made him a little stunned, "Is there really someone smuggling?" ”
Crack shook his head expressionlessly, "Who can say this clearly?" ”
"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded, "Then ...... Let's find a place to stay. ”
Outside the Hongyi settlement, there are many more houses than Hongsi settlement, and if you count them roughly, I am afraid that there are not more than 100,000 houses.
The number of people here is also far greater than that of the Hongsi settlement.
When Crack drove the car close to the outside of the city, there were already many people looking sideways, looking at the foreign vehicle.
Qu Jianlei said sharply, "From now on, call me rich." ”
There was no expression on Crack's face, just a slight bow.
Xiaojing thought about it for a while, and said in a similar way, "In the future, I will call it Daytime." ”
When the vehicles got closer to the settlement, there was a road.
Although it is paved with gravel slag, it is already very good, at least it gives people a modern civilized atmosphere.
But even so, a light truck loaded with supplies is relatively rare.
Immediately, a motorcycle rider approached and asked if their supplies were for sale.
Crack is good at dealing with these things, he didn't explain, and waved his hand indifferently.
Soon they were at the houses outside the city, and another wave of people came up to them and asked if they wanted shops.
If it weren't for the relatively simple houses, this middle-of-the-road man would really have a bit of a market economy flavor.
Crack still ignored the men, but parked the car in an open space and put a sign on the windshield.
"Ask for a set of residential courtyards, you can park, don't disturb the Chinese."
This kind of operation really worked, and it didn't take long for people to come and ask.
It took them about two hours to finalize the house, a small yard on the very edge with four houses.
The business here is really developed, and the landlord can actually accept the rent for the goods.
But the rent is really not cheap, a Gauss automatic gun, can only be rented for a month.
Crack bargained with the other party for half a day, and finally negotiated to rent two guns for three months.
In the end, he was still a little stupid, "Once this guy flips his hands, he can make a fortune again." ”
Qu Jianlei shook his head and said lightly, "You have to let the other party make some money, so that people can make it convenient." ”
Crack is waiting for this sentence, "I have to pay a little bit to find out the news, right?" ”
Qu Jianlei glanced at him in surprise, "I thought you would ask for a weapon." ”
"That's not in a hurry," Crack replied calmly, "at most a long knife is enough, it's easy to get out of control with a gun." ”
Sure enough, it's the old rivers and lakes! Qu Jianlei couldn't help but sigh secretly, knowing that he had a sharp blade in his mind and killed himself.
But he didn't have many silver dollars, and only took out two pieces, one for Hong Si and one for Hong Wu, "You know how to use it, right?" ”
"Understood," Crack nodded, and said in his heart that this one really had a silver dollar, "Let's go to the distance and exchange it quietly." ”
The three of them stayed quietly.
In the following time, Qu Jianlei devoted himself to cultivation.
Although Xiaojing is also exercising, he is a teenager after all, and he will go out for a walk from time to time.
Living in the vicinity of the settlement is convenient, and most of the daily necessities can be bought at hand.
Qu Jianlei did not sit on the mountain, he is very talented in mechanical maintenance.
In the past winter, he still sifted out some useful garbage, and made small things with his hand, which could also be exchanged for some goods.
In less than half a month, some people knew that this tenant had a strong maintenance ability, and some people even came to ask for help.
For this kind of request, Qu Jianlei usually pushes it off because he doesn't like to be constrained.
He wants to do something small, that's his own business, and what he does is also up to his temperament.
Repairing or even customizing items according to other people's requirements can make him feel uncomfortable.
Not to mention that many people have requirements for deadlines, which makes him more and more disliked.
However, after pushing down two in a row, Crack put forward an opinion: You are so uncooperative, it is not conducive to me to find out the news.
Everyone nearby knows that the three of them are in a group, and he has finally opened up a bit of a situation, and he has been talked about lately.
Qu Jianlei thinks about it, he is not familiar with life, and he can't stiffen the relationship with everyone.
So his answer is: simple maintenance, he can help, but the other party's temper must be good.
It's also important that there is no time limit.
Crack is not very satisfied with this answer, but the problem is: Fugui really doesn't pay attention to the cost of this repair.
He can only comfort himself: forget it, something is better than nothing.
As a result, things have become a bit weird, it is useless for others to ask for wealth and nobility, but it may have an effect to find cracks.
However, the cracks are really poisonous to see people, and I took two orders, both of which have more money and less trouble.
In a blink of an eye, a month passed, and Qu Jianlei found that he had reached a bottleneck again.
The fourth layer of gas refining...... Basically, it has reached its peak, and the third mutant beast crystal has also been used halfway, and it feels like progress is slow.
He decided to take a trip to the Endless Mountains to see the beasts inside and see if he could encounter mutant beasts.
When Xiaojing heard about it, he strongly asked to go with him.
Qu Jianlei simply refused: In case of trouble, I don't care about you!
And Xiaojing has an important task, he has to take care of his home!
Over the course of the month, the cracks have somewhat blended into this small group, but ...... It's far from reassuring.
The most important thing is: Crack wanders around all day to find out the news, there must be someone to watch the house, right?
