Chapter 65: Impressions
The whole hall is lively and orderly, with shops converted into subway trains, vendors, a large number of survivors, heavily armed security guards, and the smiling and well-served staff of the official exchange center.
Probably for safety and protection from the attacks of the underground mutants, the subway station was sealed off by thick concrete walls at both ends, according to the handbook for first-time survivors at the trading market, of course.
There is not much content on the manual, mainly to tell the survivors who come to the trading market for the first time what to pay attention to, to abide by the rules and regulations formulated by the official, not to violate, not to make trouble in the market, not to fight and kill people in the market, after reading the manual, Han Xiaofan looked thoughtful, from this manual, you can know that the official can not control other areas around, which is also an important reason why those people dare to intercept those survivors to collect protection money.
Those sellers who rent shops are generally opened by relatively large survivor teams, and most of the stalls are those survivor teams with a small number, as for whether there are lone wanderers in this, Han Xiaofan estimates that there should be, after all, human beings have never been short of ruthless people, in this apocalyptic era, some people do not believe in other survivors as partners, they are willing to survive alone, so as not to be backstabbed by their peers.
The biggest merchant in the trading market is naturally the official material exchange center, Han Xiaofan suspects that the official opening of this exchange center should be to collect a large number of crystal nuclei, as long as there is a crystal nucleus, those soldiers of the official can become stronger and stronger by devouring the crystal nucleus, in order to better protect the official survival base.
As for the grain that was exchanged, it was not worth mentioning to the official, and no one knew how much grain reserves the official had in their hands.
The area of the whole trading market is not very large, after all, it is rebuilt from a subway station, the length is only about 100 meters, there are more vendors who set up stalls, and rent a shop requires rent, for the average survivor or small team, it is still necessary to save it.
Han Xiaofan walked around the entire trading market, and when he saw something useful, he exchanged it for mutant rat meat, and in the end, less than half of the meat in the bag was left, and he didn't plan to set up a stall, so he went directly to the exchange center with the bag and told the staff there to exchange food.
The staff asked Han Xiaofan what kind of food he wanted to exchange, there were more than a dozen types of rice, flour, rice noodles and so on, and when he heard the staff's words, Han Xiaofan was sure that there should be no shortage of food in the hands of the official base, and of course he himself was not lacking, but he wanted to exchange weapons from the official, and he didn't know if it would work, so he directly asked the staff if it was feasible.
But it's a pity, the staff replied to him: "I'm sorry, we don't have a hot weapon exchange here, but we do have cold weapons, I don't know if you need cold weapons?" ”
"No, I want to ask, if you want to exchange for thermal weapons, what kind of leader should you go to?"
"I don't know."
"Okay, thanks."
Coming out of the exchange center, Han Xiaofan was carrying a bag of rice in his hand, he saw the malicious eyes of some people around him, it seemed that these people saw him alone, thinking that he was a fat sheep, and he would let these people who dared to beat him know that he was not a fat sheep at all, but a hungry wolf.
Zhao Jianjun, who had been paying attention to Han Xiaofan and was a little curious about him, saw that he was leaving the market, Zhao Jianjun immediately arranged for Qiao Bing to follow, and he took others to the exchange center to inquire about the situation.
In addition to Qiao Bing, there were several people who also left the trading market behind Han Xiaofan, they all wanted to rob Han Xiaofan's food, after all, Han Xiaofan just came to the market alone to trade materials, if they didn't see Han Xiaofan having a companion to answer outside, they would definitely do it.
Not to mention a big bag of food, now even a piece of bread can cause a death match between two survivors, in order to survive, human beings have done everything they can, killing people is normal, some survivors can even eat people, but these survivors are no longer considered human.
For the person who was following him, Han Xiaofan was clear in his heart, his strength enhancement was an all-round enhancement, and even his sixth sense already had a kind of fantasy feeling, that is, he could clearly sense the existence of any life form within a hundred meters, as if he had installed a life radar, and he felt that as his strength became stronger and stronger, this sensing ability would also become stronger, and in the future, he would be able to sense the entire urban area, and he would not be much different from the immortals at that time.
As for the survivors who followed him, since they wanted to find death, Han Xiaofan would also fulfill them.
After being inspected by the doorman, Han Xiaofan left the trading market and re-entered the sewer pipe, and the sound of running was already heard behind him.
Sure enough, after a while, when Han Xiaofan deliberately slowed down, he was surrounded by five people.
The five are all men, each with a machete in their hands, and one of them is holding a flashlight, but even if there is no flashlight, Han Xiaofan can clearly see their dress, dirty down jackets, wearing cold hats, masks, cold boots, etc., it can be said that these people are ordinary survivors, but from their bloodshot eyes, what Han Xiaofan sees is a disregard for life, such survivors are all survivors who have killed people, or survivors who have killed mutants and mutant beasts.
"Boy, hand over the bag in your hand, hurry!"
One of the five should be the leader of the five of them, and he bluntly asked Han Xiaofan to hand over the grain, and it seems that this is not the first time he has done this kind of thing.
Han Xiaofan didn't expect the official opening of this trading market, to some extent, it was to give the weak survivors a chance to exchange materials, especially to exchange food to survive, but many people in the official should not have thought that this trading market is also equivalent to a place to attract survivors to send their lives, after all, the inferior nature of human beings cannot be eradicated, especially in the apocalyptic world, without the constraints of order and law, the evil in many people's hearts is infinitely magnified, compared to the hard work of hunting mutant beasts and mutant people to harvest crystal nuclei, Or go outside to collect supplies in the harsh environment, and it is not more convenient and easy for them to simply grab other people's supplies.
"Do it!"
At the moment when he saw Han Xiaofan in a daze, the leader gave the order to do it very decisively, in fact, when he saw that Han Xiaofan's encirclement of the five of them seemed very thin, he felt that something was wrong in his heart, which was also the reason why he didn't do it at the first time, but now that he saw Han Xiaofan distracted, he naturally wouldn't let go of the perfect opportunity to do it.
But it's a pity that the moment after he shouted, Han Xiaofan drew his knife, indescribably fast, Qiao Bing, who was watching the play behind, only saw a lightning flash of knife light, and then he was shocked to see five heads falling to the ground, and five pillars of blood spraying up, which made Qiao Bing, a special soldier who had seen a lot of bloody scenes and experienced in a hundred battles, a little unbearable.
"Who are you?"
I don't know when it started, Han Xiaofan was already standing not far in front of Qiao Bing, the Tang knife in his hand had already been sheathed, and the whole person still looked so indifferent and expressionless, as if it was not him who had just beheaded five people.
The alarm bell in his heart was frantically reminding Qiao Bing that the ordinary-looking young man in front of him was an extremely dangerous person, this was an evolutionary who was a hundred times stronger than his captain, this was the first instinct in his heart, he raised his hands and said to Han Xiaofan with a smile: "Hello, brother, my name is Qiao Bing, I am a soldier, an official person, I am following you, not to be unfavorable to you, but to have something I want to tell you." ”
