The sickly beauty is super fierce in the wasteland world

Chapter 24 Caravan
Chapter 24 Caravan

Lin Ye didn't seem to notice that he had already started to worry about the fate of these game characters before he knew it.

The sense of crisis is getting stronger and stronger, and the people in the settlement are already prepared.

But the other party didn't seem to be worried, that is, he didn't enter the alert state, and there was no change.

I don't know if it's because he has a gun so he has confidence, or if he really has no hostility.

But no matter which item it is, it may not be a good thing for the people in the settlement.

Such an atmosphere made Lin Ye hold his breath.

At this moment, the convoy stopped. Facing the heavily armed opponents, they didn't seem nervous at all.

A person came out suddenly, looked at them and shouted suddenly, "We are a caravan, and we are here to do business."

Hearing their voices from a distance, Lin Ye found that their accents were a bit weird, but he could still understand them.

This accent is not a dialect, it looks like a foreigner speaking Chinese.

Hearing this voice, the people in the settlement did not relax their vigilance, but instead sent people to quietly come out to surround the caravan people.

At this time, a man with a stooped figure and a patchwork of clothes came towards them, "We don't welcome hostile traders."

The caravan representative chuckled, "If we were hostile, we wouldn't stand here and wait for your reaction."

Without waiting for the other party to react, he immediately continued, "Don't rush to refuse, you can see what we brought."

As he said that, he waved his hands behind him, and someone immediately brought a bag of things over.

When the bag was opened, the expression of the old man on the opposite side suddenly changed, and he exclaimed almost at the same time, "Is it salt?"

As the sound came, the people in the settlement were also shocked. They were no longer as quiet as before, and even began to whisper slowly.

Seeing their shocked appearance, the people in the caravan laughed as expected.

Obviously, salt is hard currency in the eyes of these people.

"What do you want to change?" The old man finally couldn't stand the temptation and asked directly.

"Prey, food, of course you may not have these, but we can exchange slaves and women." The businessman said immediately.

Lin Ye frowned after hearing this, because he felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the last two words.

Even knowing that this is fake, and maybe even just a bunch of data made to fit this theme, I still can't comfort myself.

The situation here was almost seen, and Lin Ye didn't stay any longer, and while they were communicating, he slowly backed away.

Along the way, I haven't completed any tasks yet. I only watched the bustle, but I haven't found anything to eat. I can't just gossip and go home one day, right?
So instead of going back the same way, she turned around and walked towards the road the caravan came from.

If her sense of direction is correct, she only needs to pass through the ruins and make another turn to return to the base.

And the place where the caravan passed by also means that it will be relatively safe.

Sure enough, after walking on this road, there were traces on the snow along the way, not only footprints, but even traces left by ruts.

From these traces, it can be seen that the caravan really has a lot of goods, otherwise such deep traces would not be left.

Since salt is a hard currency in this world, it must not be cheap.

It is impossible for such a small settlement to consume all the salt. They must go to other places.

Thinking of this, Lin Ye suddenly had the desire to follow behind them to see how big this world really is.

It's a pity that she still has to go offline, at least for the time being, she can't leave the base too far.

Looking back at the direction of the caravan, he sighed softly and walked towards the base reluctantly.

With the traces left by the caravan, the way back would be much easier, but Lin Ye knew that it would be impossible to find anything along their way.

So he observed the surrounding situation while walking, and finally stopped when he saw that the nearby ruins were getting higher and higher.

The collapsed ruins, coupled with the heavy snow cover, can't see the original appearance at all, but the more complicated the situation is, the more it attracts attention.

Lin Ye is not a person with strong curiosity, but her desire to explore in this world is extremely strong.

Now she is not only looking for food, but also wants to find out the situation in the past four weeks.

The ruins looked quite small from a distance, but they were even more spectacular when they got closer. When they climbed to the top, it was almost the same as climbing the mountain on the base.

One can imagine what a huge building this ruin was before.

But since it was a collapsed building and it was in such an obvious location, it was naturally impossible for anything to be left behind.

Even those spaces that can be drilled into are all empty, let alone looking for food, or looking for some things left over from the old era.

Think about the iron sheets and finished rubber on the houses in the settlements, which are obviously made up of various garbage.

She doesn't know what the rest of the world looks like, but from the situation in the settlement, it can be seen that the productivity here is almost gone, and it is a complete primitive society model.

Unable to even simply distill salt, there seems to be nothing left but language.

But another group of people, armed with weapons, dared to walk the caravan in such a dangerous world.

They want prey, which can also be understood as needing food, but they want slaves and women, which means that there is a market for these here.

As long as there is a market, it means that not all settlements are primitive societies like this, and maybe there is still civilization.

Just as Lin Ye was thinking about this, there was a sudden cry not far away.

Hearing the roar from such a distance, Lin Ye instinctively took off his bow and arrow and pointed in that direction.

At first glance, it was another mutant dog.

If she saw other prey that she had never seen before, she might still be afraid, but she was not nervous at all for the mutant dog that had already been killed once.

Seeing her actions, the mutated dog immediately glared fiercely, ready to attack at any time.

Lin Ye knew that its weakness was in its stomach, so instead of rushing to attack, it waited for its action.

Sure enough, the mutated dog was still not as patient as she was, and after a stalemate for a while, it rushed over.

Almost at the same time, the bow and arrow in Lin Ye's hand shot out instantly.

"Pfft!" The flying arrow pierced the mutant dog's weakest stomach precisely.

The mutant dog flying in the air fell to the ground with a plop.

Before it could react, Lin Ye quickly stepped forward and stabbed it, completely killing it.
