Chapter 44: Arriving at Millstone City

"Brother Shi, wake up, Millstone City has arrived ......"

Hearing Uncle He's voice in his ears and feeling that someone was shaking his shoulders, Wang Wuyun woke up suddenly.

Last night Wang Wuyun drove all night, and this morning there was a fierce battle in the town, his body was injured and he was very tired, and Wang Wuyun, who had eaten a little dry food, fell asleep directly in a pile of debris in the car unconsciously, and slept all day.

"Ah, have you arrived in Millstone City?"

"It's ......," Uncle River nodded.

Wang Wuyun found that there was a noise outside the car, he stood up, looked outside, only to find that the surrounding area seemed to be a place similar to a refugee camp, as far as the eye could see, within a few miles, there were all kinds of makeshift buildings, stretching tents, piles of waste, isolation belts, observation posts, bustling and dusty people, and all kinds of noise......

The smell of cooked food and the smell of sewer mix together......

There were running children, and there were soldiers patrolling with guns.

All of this is very similar to the refugee camps and temporary settlements in the chaotic period that Wang Wuyun remembers.

And farther away, miles away, was a tall wall, and on the wall floated a banner with a yellow base, and on it a white deer with antlers as thick as thorns.

Although it was several miles away, Wang Wuyun still recognized it at a glance, it was the badge and banner of the Bailu family.

In the sky of the city, warplanes whizzed through the sky at high speed, heading south......

The impact of this place on Wang Wuyun is four words: chaos, tension!

The people who sat in the car together before were almost gone by this time, and Boss Feng and a man who was sitting in the cab before were next to the car, and Boss Feng was talking to an old man in a robe, pointing to the truck as he spoke, as if he was bargaining.

"Is this the Millstone City?" asked Uncle He.

"Yes, this is Grinding Stone City, we have no way to enter the city now, we can only be in a temporary settlement outside the city, are you okay with the injury on your leg?" Uncle He glanced at Wang Wuyun's leg with concern.

"It's okay, it's almost over, it doesn't affect the action!" Wang Wuyun moved his feet, although the wound on his leg was still a little painful, but after the stitches, it was much better, "By the way, what about those people in the car?"

"Millstone City is the destination, and when you get here, everyone will be separated, and let's go our separate ways!"

"Oh, then, let's go down!"

"Good!"

The two of them got out of the car, Boss Feng and the old man in the robe also talked about the same, Wang Wuyun saw the old man take out a money bag, counted two gold coins and more than ten silver coins from the money bag, and handed them to the wind boss, and then the old man waved his hand, and someone got into the truck, and as soon as he slipped through the smoke, turned the truck around, and drove the truck away.

Boss Feng walked over, scolding and scolding, but he still gave half of the money in his hand to Uncle He, "Damn, there is no way, we don't use that truck now, and we can't drive it, the Bailu family has blocked the road from Millstone City to the north, so it can only be sold cheaply, and the profiteer is cheap, and the truck was sold for two gold coins and eighteen silver coins, and the truck was brought back by the four of us, so one and a half on both sides of us ......"

As Boss Feng spoke, he handed Uncle He a gold coin and nine silver coins, and Uncle He was not polite, so he accepted it directly, but he handed the money directly to Wang Wuyun, "The two of us are still Brother Shi, you have contributed the most, you can take this money!"

Wang Wuyun shook his head and only accepted nine silver coins, "It's enough for me to keep two meals, you can keep the rest of Uncle He, it's easy for me to earn money, and there are other gains......"

Uncle He naturally knew what the harvest Wang Wuyun was talking about, it was the insect crystal obtained by Wang Wuyun after killing the sword beetle, and seeing that Wang Wuyun did not accept the gold coin, Uncle He no longer insisted, but carefully put away the gold coin.

The default monetary system of the entire planet is the precious metal standard, these gold and silver coins are issued by different families, and the weight and purity standards of the currency are uniform, one gold coin can be exchanged for 50 silver coins, and one silver coin can be exchanged for 50 aluminum coins......

Before the Zerg invasion, one aluminum coin could probably buy a steamed bun or bun, but now, naturally, it is not at this price, and it varies from place to place......

As for the insect crystal, it is also a precious thing on the mud tool Lu Xing, I heard that it can be used to make medicinal materials or cultivation, like the white insect crystal obtained by Wang Wuyun, which can now be sold for about three to five gold coins.

This is all information that Wang Wuyun knows on the mission information forum.

"Lao He, what are your plans now?" Boss Feng put away the money and asked Uncle He.

"I want to inquire about the news of my family first, they were escorted by the army at that time, our family has relatives on the side of Millstone City, they should ......be at the relative's house" Uncle He looked at the wall of Millstone City in the distance, the look on his face was already a little impatient, he patted Wang Wuyun on the shoulder, "Brother Shi, thanks to you this time, what I want to see most now is my wife and children, they have not heard from me for so many days, I'm afraid they are also in a hurry, I can't be with you, I will have a chance to see you again in the future!"

After speaking, Uncle He said goodbye to Boss Feng, and then left directly, neatly, and disappeared into the surrounding crowd in the blink of an eye.

"It's good to have a wife and children, there is something to worry about everywhere!" Boss Feng looked at Uncle He's disappearing back, sighed, and then squinted at Wang Wuyun again, "Brother Shi, where do you want to go?"

"What ...... me" Wang Wuyun looked at the surrounding environment, "I'll stay first, let's see......"

"Hey, hey, it's the same as I thought!" Boss Feng touched his bald head and smiled, "By the way, I haven't officially met Brother Shi yet, my name is Feng Guyi, and I am a mercenary......" Boss Feng pointed to the young man beside him who had been silent like a wood and didn't speak, "This is Shacheng, my brother, Shacheng's throat was injured before, and now there is no way to make a sound, so don't speak all the way, Brother Shi, don't be surprised!"

No wonder!

Wang Wuyun said in his heart.

Hearing that Boss Feng introduced himself to Wang Wuyun, the one named Shacheng just nodded at Wang Wuyun, the expression on his face did not change, and he still looked blank.

"It's a bit messy here, it's not a place to talk, if Brother Shi doesn't dislike it, let's find a place to have a good meal first, have a good chat, and I'll invite you!"

"Okay!" Wang Wuyun nodded.

......

Boss Feng took Wang Wuyun and left the settlement, walked in another direction, and after some detour, he came to a bustling town next to the settlement.

By this time, it was already dark, but the town was full of electric lights, neon lights everywhere, and it was still very lively, the crowds mingled with the cars on the street, the horns of the cars and the noise of pedestrians on the side of the road were intertwined, and the bars, hotels, and women in revealing makeup roaming the streets of the town became the biggest sight there.

"My wallet, my wallet, catch the thief......" someone shouted in the street, and a group of seven or eight-year-old boys streamed through the crowd and quickly disappeared, no one around was moving, and everyone was surprised.

Boss Feng took Wang Wuyun around the street for a while, and then came to a deep and dim alley.

On both sides of the alley, scantily clad women are almost every one meter, teasing passers-by with their eyes.

Some men come here and whisper a conversation with the woman standing on the side of the street, and then they go to a nearby house, or they go straight to some deeper, darker corner and do something unspeakable.

Wang Wuyun's ears were very sharp, and as soon as he came here, he seemed to be able to hear the sound of depression or rapid wheezing from some dark corner.

Boss Feng walked in front, facing the teasing of women on both sides of the alley, Boss Feng sucked saliva, his eyes slipped around, and from time to time he reached out to pat the buttocks of the woman next to him, pinched his chest, laughed, and looked like a fish in water.

Finally, after passing through the alley, Boss Feng led Wang Wuyun to the door of a building, which had a few steps, and a neon sign with a sword cross pattern hung on the door, and the signboard read five big characters - Mercenary Hotel.
