The slightly Red Sky in the southwest direction was indeed illuminated by the lights. Lu Xin and the lizard continued down the path and soon discovered that the red Sky had become more obvious. It was like a cloud of red mist, and there was a faint light below.
After walking for about ten minutes, they saw a rusty finger sign on the side of the road.
It stood on the side of the road, with a few big scribbled words and arrows painted in bright red paint:
“Black water town”
Below these three words, there were a few slightly smaller words, ” good luck “.
” eat “, ” big Guardian ‘
The last word was a little unclear.
“The service is quite complete .
The lizard perked up a little and followed the direction of the arrow. The car turned into a small road covered with gravel.
Both sides of the road were dark, and there was wild grass that was only as tall as a person.
At times, Lu Xin would hear rustling sounds coming from the grass and see the grass swaying.
“It’s a rabbit,” the lizard chuckled and explained in a low voice.
“Can you take one down?” Lu Xin asked.
“Don’t .
The lizard was shocked and quickly stopped him. It said in a low voice, that’s the rabbit released by Blackwater town to observe the movement.
when we arrived at Blackwater town, these people had basically figured out our background.
Only then did Lu Xin understand that the word “rabbit” meant “spy.”
After driving on the road for about half an hour, the car finally arrived at the brightly lit area that seemed very close to them. It was a town built on a higher terrain, surrounded by thick wooden fences that were three to four meters high. The fences were wrapped with ferocious barbed wire. The lights they saw from a distance were actually only a small part of the fence.
Outside the fence, there were large black trucks parked. Some were empty, while others were filled with goods.
There were a few guards around the truck. They looked around vigilantly while smoking cigarettes.
At the end of the path, there was a rusty iron gate and a Pavilion with iron railings.
“Those searching the wasteland, come and rest for a while.” The lizard drove the car to the side of the pavilion and shouted.
“Search the wasteland?”
The person in the pavilion seemed to have known that lizard and the others would come. He looked at the lizard and Lu Xin through the window and laughed.”lt doesn’t look like it. You two look quite clean …”
His voice was a little high, and a few people sitting in the pavilion with guns took a few steps closer, intentionally or otherwise.
On the other hand, many of the people who were resting and chatting next to the truck also looked over.
“We’re here to search for scraps, not scrap picking. Why can’t we be clean?”
The lizard patted the car door hard and pretended to be forthright.”What, must I roll in the mud before I can enter?”
“No, I’m just asking.”
When the person in the pavilion saw the lizard’s fearless appearance, his eyelids drooped and he routinely said, ‘
old rules. You can enter the town, but you can only bring pistols. The heavy firearms must be placed in the car.
“You’re asking what heavy firepower is?”
tu tu tu means heavy firepower. If you want to put it in the car, pa pa pa means you can carry it on your body!
“If you stop the car, you still have two options! If you Park it in the town, you’ll get a hundred Alliance dollars a day, or ten cans of food. You’ll also get to pay for the guns and bullets. We’ll have someone to keep an eye on you, but you have to carry your valuables with you.”
if you stop outside the town, no one will care about you. You can leave some people behind to keep an eye on the town. No one will be responsible if anything happens.
Lu Xin was a little surprised to learn that there were so many rules when parking a car.
“Of course I’m going to bring along some sex, do I need you to tell me that?”
The lizard took out a gun and patted the door twice. “Stop inside, in case someone removes the tires!”
Many people around him looked away when they saw that he had a gun in his hand.
just because you can bring a gun doesn’t mean you can shoot. If you shoot in this town, regardless of whether it’s reasonable or not, you’ll be fined 1000 Yuan first!
The person in the pavilion mumbled. He took the 100 Alliance dollars from the lizard and shouted, ‘”‘Niuzi, please accept it.”
“Alright!”
The iron gate was opened, and a young man ran out with a bamboo board in his hand.
He split it into two, gave half of it to the lizard, and tied the other half to the left mirror of the car. Then, he stood in front of the car and waved his hand.
“Come, come, come in …” it’s okay. It won’t scratch you. Just drive boldly …
“It costs a hundred Yuan to park the car …”
Lu Xin’s heart ached at the thought.
However, he thought about it again,’it’s a business trip anyway, so I can reimburse it …’
Then, he thought about it again. If he had saved some from the official duties, he didn’t know if he could keep it for himself.
The car stopped at a flat open space behind the iron gate. The lizard jumped out of the car, pulled out the key, and closed the door.
“We can just stop here?”
Lu Xin didn’t have much experience going out, so he was still a little worried. “Nothing bad will happen, right?”
“Don’t worry about that.”
“Ordinary people can’t deal with this car,” the lizard patted the back of the car and said.
Lu Xin nodded and turned around to see that his mother and sister had already alighted from the car.
His mother was smiling as she looked in a certain direction.
She was looking at a wall, but her gaze seemed to penetrate the wall and look further away.
“It’s very close, you have to be prepared.”
Seeing that Lu Xin was looking at her, she smiled and nodded at him. His younger sister was already very happy, and her eyes were shining.
“Men, what are you doing in this town?”
After stopping the car, the young man called “Niu Zi” led Lu Xin and the others out of the parking lot.
Then, he looked at Lu Xin and the lizard attentively and said with a smile, there’s more food, drink, and fun in Blackwater town than in high wall city. I can take you there if you want to stay in a hotel or drink and eat …
Then, he lowered his voice and said, ” if you want to buy something else, there are different places. The big market is closed now, so you can only go there tomorrow. If it’s a small market, it depends on what you want. I know almost everything anyway.
“Can I buy people?”
The lizard laughed and winked at the young man.
“Of course …
Niu Zi was also interested when he heard this. He lowered his voice and said, “Our labor market is the largest in the surrounding area.”
As he spoke, he counted with his fingers, ‘”‘Laborers in their Prime, three for ten thousand Yuan;The young female slaves were a little more expensive. Each one cost five to six thousand, but they could be bought individually.As for the older ones, they’re not worth much and are generally considered a companion
if it’s short-term, we can rent it too. The price is much lower, but you have to pay a deposit …
. Don’t think it’s expensive!”
it’s not the same as before. There are animals running around everywhere. Of course, the price has to increase. It may be more expensive in the future …
Lu Xin couldn’t help but look at him with a strange expression.
Born in the high wall city, he did not know that there was such a ‘labor market’ outside …
The lizard seemed to know this, but it didn’t think of this.
He frowned and said, ” who wants to buy this? it’s so heartless. I’m asking about those ..
“This, you’re really reserved .
When Niu Zi heard this, he instantly became bored, as if he didn’t care about such a small business.
He pointed to the street and said,”there are too many. You can pick anything you want .
“Tsk tsk …”
The lizard shook its head in excitement, but it still turned to look at Lu Xin.
Lu Xin glanced at an empty spot, as if he had just confirmed something.
Then, he looked up at the town and said slowly, “”Let’s walk around first!”
“Alright, let’s go for a walk.”
The lizard grabbed the young man called Niu Zi’s shoulder and stuffed a few coins into his hand.”l’ll find you later.” alright, I’m at the gate …
The youngster named Niu Zi readily agreed, but his gaze was somewhat cunning..
