[Part ①——Blood Butterfly Loan Sharks and Scavengers]

Carnegie said a word in "The Weakness of Human Nature".

It's called "Northern winds make Vikings"—it means that without a harsh environment, powerful Vikings cannot be trained. The Vikings turned the cold sea wind into a strong and savage body, and turned adversity into prosperity.

"I've heard this sentence in comics!" Bu Meteor crouched among the rocks in the wilderness, "In the comic "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure"! The protagonist's teacher said this sentence when he encouraged the students! Wei Wei Beijing warriors built by the north wind!"

Jason frowned in disgust, "This guy's voice is as loud as thunder."

Wen Bucai and his four companions hid on the lee side of the boulder, pointing to the end of the secret passage.

"Bu Meteor is right, the place we are going to is full of difficulties and obstacles, you see."

At the end of the mine, the people of the Skull and Bones built four plank roads along the cliff here, relying on the walls of volcanic obsidian to build four outposts.

This is also the Molohovvich discontinuity, which is the source of the Mimir Hot Spring. It is more than a kilometer deep up and down, and the bottom is the tumbling magma and the shining eclogite.

The distance between the outpost and platform zero is only five or six hundred meters, and there is only a chain bridge leading to the outside world.

"Can I go in from another place?" Jiang Xueming pointed to the dangerous ravines on both sides of the cliff: "Using a hook, or a hang glider? Other things?"

Bu Meteor immediately said: "I can skydive! I'm good at this! I can also climb rocks!"

Wen Bucai shook his head, and moved his fingers to the hard and fragile obsidian mountain.

"These glass crystals are very hard, but they are not earthquake-resistant. I want to choose another way to enter platform zero, unless you can fly - the noise of the helicopter is too loud. We only have one way, the most difficult and the easiest way. "

Jason glanced at the cargo box of the mine cart. Inside were some crude windproof cloaks, long clothes and trousers, which had been patched a lot and looked very worn.

"You want to pretend to be a scavenger and find an excuse to sneak in?"

Wen Bucai: "Yes."

Jason: "The scavengers are the group with the lowest status and the weakest ability in the underground world. What excuse are you going to make?"

Wen Bucai: "Pretending to be a chef on a mobile dining car on the railway. We were going to the Mimier Hot Spring Market to ask for a living, and we walked along the railway for a long, long time—then the unknown robbers robbed our things and put We were thrown on the rails to die."

"Is this an appropriate excuse?" Jiang Xueming never told a similar lie. He was just like a blank sheet of paper in the underground world, and he didn't know whether this disguise could deceive the ogres of the Skull and Bones Society.

Jason lay on the edge of the road, carefully smelling the smell of the asphalt road.

He used his fingers to stain the dregs left on the road surface by the car shafts and tires, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed the smell carefully.

His keen instincts make judgments - this method works.

"This method works." Jason gestured out the size of the car's shaft on the road: "Look at the traces of the car's shaft. Its wheel spacing is the size of a dining car. There are other mobile dining cars that have entered the outpost."

"Are you sure it's the mobile dining car of the scavengers?" Jiang Xueming cheered up and asked repeatedly: "What are the characteristics of the scavengers? I have to write it down. What if I can't perform well and show my feet?"

The little waiter was full of self-satisfaction, and showed off his knowledge in front of Jiang Xueming: "Hey! You are a rookie who doesn't understand anything, just listen to my husband explain to you slowly!"

Jason: "What are you proud of?"

Little waiter: "Yes! What are you proud of?"

Jason: "No, I'm asking you, I'm talking to you, my sweet girl. What are you proud of?"

The little waiter panicked: "Employer. I."

Jason: "There is no baby in the world who can talk at birth. That's not a baby. It's a monster that came from time travel. It's a monster that has resurrected from a dead body. Isn't it strange that Jiang Xueming doesn't know about these things? Is it worthy of your happiness? Is it worth your cheer?"

"I'm sorry sir." The little waiter froze all of a sudden, his eyes became watery, "I just thought that sir can beat him! Better than him! I can win even more in every place! In this way, sir will be fine. stand up."

"Oh! Don't cry. Please." Jason clasped his hands together and begged, "Please let me go and spare my life."

Jiang Xueming pulled the little waiter away, and asked earnestly and persistently, "Mr. Jason, please teach me, how should I play this role?"

"Teacher!" The little waiter stopped crying immediately: "Mr. Jason! He called you a teacher!"

Jason's expression became complicated.

He saw the joyful appearance of the waiter, and Jiang Xueming's meticulous expression.

— he finally spoke.

"The scavengers are the most pitiful and hateful group of people in the underground world. They have lost all their skills and don't work for the station."

While speaking, Jason began to change clothes.

He took off the MOLLE on his body, disarmed all weapons, tore his clothes, stained with saliva and slime.

"These people have a complex composition and never reveal their real names, because they have more or less a debt of flesh and blood, which must be repaid to the financial institution of the blood butterfly usury."

Jiang Xueming had heard this word before, and changed clothes with Jason.

"Loan usury? Boss still has such a wicked side job?"

Several zippers on Xue Ming's body were open - the little waiter blushed when he saw it, and kept hiding behind his employer.

Jason went on to say: "Boss' panacea alone can't support so many passengers. Every station has an officially certified credit institution. They accept the lender's body essence, and the payment is to exchange for panacea. Blood Butterfly Shopping Vouchers from the lender—take away organs with strong regenerative capabilities, bone marrow, hematopoietic stem cells, etc. from the lender. They are used to cultivate Mrs. Bai and make panacea. Do you have Mrs. Bai’s coffee, right?"

Jiang Xueming: "Yes."

Jason: "Madam White Coffee is an inferior by-product of blood butterfly loan sharks."

Bu Liuxing pondered: "Oh! In this way, if I drink the medicine and borrow money at the same time, wouldn't it be a bug? As long as I can regenerate fast enough, I can give them dozens of kidneys, and then use the panacea to grow them back. It may be A beautiful thing?"

"If only things were that simple." Jason threw the rags to the little waiter, asking the little waiter to hide in a few places where men can't see: "The physical body and the spirit are originally interdependent and mutually supportive. Take some of that away, and there's a terrible aftereffect."

Bu Meteor immediately dismissed this idea, and it was impossible to think about it with his toes.

"Blood butterfly usury can only solve the urgent need." Jason explained in detail: "Repayment on schedule means that every once in a while, you need to go to the station to provide physical essence. At Jushan Station, 600 grams of fresh liver, one installment The clearing price is 8,600 pyroxene coins——if installments are required, the price will be even lower, and interest has to be calculated. The station hopes to obtain complete internal organs, but the more physical body essence is taken away at one time, the more expensive it is. The damage to the human body is also greater."

Jiang Xueming asked: "These body essences are the raw materials for cultivating Mrs. Bai?"

"Yes. And the result of repeated borrowing is terrible. The station has clear regulations in this regard and will not allow the same person to borrow frequently." Jason gritted his teeth, thinking of the chaotic and unspeakable scene: "A spiritual body People who are all able-bodied keep making themselves crippled, their wounds heal, and they experience new wounds. With the money they get in exchange for these pains, they live in the city night after night, and spend money more and more uncontrollably—they endure I can't help it, I can't help it, the frequency of borrowing will only increase, and more and more things will be donated."

Jason Megan covered his face, feeling nervous when talking about this matter, his lips and teeth were dry.

"The side effects of repeated borrowing will damage the spiritual essence of passengers, the inspiration will become weaker and weaker, and the madness index will become higher and higher-things that can be seen clearly before, things that can be perceived, can be used for a They were so moved by a movie that they were so moved that they couldn’t sleep because of a date. They lost these simple and pure feelings. They even lost the most important thing, the ability to live in the real world every minute and every second. .Many of my commuter friends at the same time, and a few of them, just degenerated into scavengers, became an empty shell, became insensitive, unable to perceive other people's Reiatsu! There is no way to travel by car anymore! "

Jason gritted his teeth, furious.

"I can't find any trace of them anymore. Maybe they are still in the underground world, risking their lives to try their luck on foot along the railway and to other strange stations, trying to forge their identities and deceive the financial institutions. Reviewer, continue with the loan."

"Maybe they have returned to the surface world long ago, married and had children with the last sum of money, and lived a happy life of ordinary people, who knows?"

"Maybe they still push the dining car on the railway tracks to sell snacks, occasionally ask for a cigarette with the maintenance personnel of the train crew, and exchange a ticket from the passenger when they are resting at the station. Look out for the inverted pentagram emblem on the bill."

"No matter how strong the willpower is, it will become vulnerable in this superstitious ritual of repeatedly sacrificing organs. If there are no attendants to help them, the final result is that they will fall alone."

Jiang Xueming sent a text message to his sister without any hassle.

[Don't touch online loans, Bai Lu, my brother is rich. ]

"Is the scavengers such a group of people?" Bu Liuxing suddenly didn't plan to change clothes, because he had never experienced this kind of emotion since he was a child, and he couldn't learn how to pretend to be different, and he couldn't act at all, it didn't taste like that.

"Ordinary people are also willing to sell their bodies to provide passengers with ingredients for panacea." Jason had already changed his clothes, and went back to the side of the road to reconfirm that the information he had collected was accurate: "But ordinary people Unlike the passengers, the end is not so miserable. Their inspiration is not so strong, and they will not experience the thrill of falling from a high place to a low place, the inexplicable pleasure of falling—only the increase in the madness index will make these Ordinary people's hearts become fragile, easily startled and irritable, prone to great sorrow and joy, and the probability of crime will increase. Unless it is recommended by the station's transfer order, ordinary people can't get tickets, and they can't travel to and from multiple stations to cheat loans. This side effect will become insignificant, and after the loan is paid off, it may take half a year or as short as half a month, and they will be back to normal."

Jiang Xueming sighed inwardly, he did not expect that the usury at the station was referring to the interest brought by the flesh and blood debt between the station and the passengers.

The good cat tried his best to prepare enough panacea for the adventure journey of the passengers, but in the end this is the result.

The life-saving elixir born from this production line has degraded many passengers into crazy scavengers.

"Five years ago, the station did not allow any passengers to sell their physical essence. In the big loan market, more gray areas have been created instead. Private banks and private loans, all kinds of financial management projects emerge in endlessly. That is another It's a bloody story." Jason put aside these things for the time being, and lowered his head to lick the smell in the black mud of the wheel print.

That scene was amazing to see Bu Meteor.

Jason said to Wen Bucai: "There is a chance to go in! There is definitely a chance! Wen Bucai!"

Wen Bucai: "Tell me in detail."

"Using the name of the food truck is an excellent excuse." Jason explained: "There are fresh donkey dung in these mud ballasts. The chefs of the food truck use animal power to transport the goods, which is quieter than the truck. It’s safer—the main components of donkey manure are bracken and moss, which are the products of Jushan Station. I have eaten these things. If these donkeys are disobedient, they can also be turned into clothing and food to keep out the cold.”

Jiang Xueming was also moved by this, and handed out the water bottle and toothbrush from the bag, "Strong man! Thank you for your hard work!"

Jason took the toothbrush and water bottle, and while cleaning his mouth, he explained in an eloquent manner.

"Not long ago, within two days, a mobile dining car of scavengers entered the checkpoint. Judging from the direction of the shaft, they entered and exited. When they entered, the wheel marks were deep, and they came out with a lot of goods. The time stamp is shallow."

Then Jason circled the road again.

"There are no bullet marks, metal splinters, or blood on this road. The outer outpost is loosely guarded. It should be a good place to talk."

He raised his head to rinse his mouth, and finally spit out the mouthwash.

"We need two scouts. It takes a little more time to go to the front to explore the way. We need to have a good conversation with strangers. These two scouts have to take care of each other, find out the gaps in each other's lies, and ask questions. If you know how many people and how many guns there are in this settlement, you have to ask around and ask where the big boss of platform zero lives."

Bu Meteor raised his hand: "I'm ready!"

Wen Bucai just wanted to speak.

Jason shook his head: "You can't! Wen Luo, your name is too loud and eye-catching in the Mimir Hot Spring Market. Your mandible is thick and fleshy, with obvious features. Anyone who has stayed in the Mimir Hot Spring Market God, I can recognize your chin."

Jiang Xueming: "I'm with Meteor?"

Jason: "Can you act?"

Jiang Xueming: "I don't understand at all."

Little waiter: "Let me risk my life! Sir! I can."

Jason said blankly, "Fart your mother."

The little waiter lost his mind and hid behind Jason's buttocks to Jiang Xueming's buttocks.

Jason sighed, and started talking to Bu Meteor.

"Boy, I'm a scavenger. My mobile dining car was robbed. When you meet me, a lonely person, you have to help me in the face of injustice. I am going to attack you, kill you, and steal your ticket and crew In the end, I don’t know why, the two of us chased after each other, so we ran to platform zero—you are a passenger looking for fun, and you want to act in your true colors, so you understand?”

Bu Meteor: "Oh! I understand!"

Xue Ming beeped softly: "I hope he can understand."

The little waiter beeped softly: "I hope he can take good care of my employer."

[Part·②——Boke Hotel]

The first checkpoint at station zero is called [Boke Pass].

The name has no special meaning, and it sounds like a type of Mongolian wrestling.

There are many refugees in the barracks and tents in front of the checkpoint, which is a campsite for scavengers.

These scavengers hope that [Platform Zero] outside the station's railway network will make them rich and lucky.

What a good cat can't give, maybe another BOSS on platform zero can fill in the life poems of these scavengers with a new title page.

The security personnel at the outpost are fully equipped and are very professional mercenaries. The military products on their bodies come from Miami, holding AK74U in their hands, identification friend or foe logo on their shoulders, and radio communication equipment in their hands.

The brand on the armband is a bright red ZERO, and the silhouette of a blood butterfly in the background pattern.

Right now, right now.

Bu Meteor carried Jason on his shoulders, as if carrying a trophy, and strode in.

He was immediately stopped by the guards at the outpost, and all the muzzles of the black holes were pointed at Ah Xing.

someone asked.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Meteor has a bright smile, teeth like white porcelain, gleaming under the headlights, his healthy spirit almost infects the big security guards, the guy holding the gun relaxes his vigilance for a while, this kind-hearted guy looks very Easy to get along with, is a happy fruit.

Ah Xing raised his hands high, and clamped Jason's waist and abdomen by his ears.

He said sincerely, "I'm here to find Skull and Bones!"

The mercenary team leader at the sentry station burst into laughter: "Hahaha! Hahahahahaha!"

The patrolling soldier on the side laughed: "He found the right place!"

There was restless shouting and cursing from behind.

"Is this bastard a green gold guard?! How about killing him?! Let's compete whose gun is faster? You hit his head, and I hit his dick?!"

Meteor pouted quickly, looking innocent and helpless.

"Ooooooooh! BRO! Oh! Calm down! Calm down! I'm not looking for death! I'm here for Skull and Bones! Do, come, mi, fa, instigate?"

The moment Ah Xing read out the password.

The good brothers at the outpost sighed at the same time.

"Scavenger? He understands our code, we don't collect waste here"

Meteor showed his passenger ID: "I have a stick and pyroxene, which are different from the non-combustible waste that I borrowed from the Internet behind me!"

The mercenaries cheered, and it was exciting to welcome new partners.

"Unfortunately, I was stabbed by this guy on the shoulder." A Xing turned around, revealing the wound on his side, bandages and blood: "You must want to know who he is, right?"

The mercenaries then sighed, outraged by Meteor's misfortune.

Ah Xing showed Jason Megan on his shoulders to the mercenaries.

"This friend! It's a scavenger, his name is Jason, Jason Megan - he lost his waiter, he has never recovered from it, and he started to support his loan and became a scavenger. I'm going to rice today In the Mier Hot Springs market, he was taken away by his mobile dining car halfway - he wanted to kill me when he was walking on the railroad tracks with no one around, he wanted to stab my waist, took away my ID and continued to borrow money, it's okay I'm smart enough and strong enough, and he's no match for me at all."

The mercenaries burst into applause again.

The group leader in charge kept sneezing and became excited: "Good job! You did a good job!"

Meteor continued: "But the dishes he cooks are delicious, especially mutton soup, milk tea, and grilled steaks. Have you ever eaten grilled steaks, right? The grilled steaks I said are very special, really special. After eating, I The whole person became happy, and even the pain on the waist didn’t hurt anymore—it’s really delicious, it’s a pity, I think this should be the skill he practiced for the waiter girl. It’s a pity.”

The mercenaries sighed immediately, their emotions changing very quickly.

The patrolmen took out their small handkerchiefs and began to wipe their tears.

Meteor said: "But the good news is! This chef! Now he has entered our mountain! I gave the certificate of honor to Skull and Bones! We are lucky!"

Thunderous applause broke out among the mercenary crowd.

"OHHHHHHH!!"

"OHHHHHHHHHOH!!OHHHHHHH!"

"Go and call the shopkeeper of the big hotel! Invite this guest in! Let the shopkeeper personally check his details! If what he said is true! That's a great thing!"

The treasurer of the Bock Hotel.

It's a Mongolian lady.

She is eight feet tall and has a six-foot waist.

With scars all over his face, he sat in the center of the lobby like a fierce god.

Bu Meteor passed the checkpoint, entered the alleyway inside the mountain, and walked to the front hall of the Boke Hotel, and saw the shopkeeper closing his eyes to rest.

He didn't react for a while and was stunned.

I only heard the big shopkeeper speak slowly, but his eyes didn't open.

"If you want to join the Skull and Bones, hand over the pyroxene first."

In the dim light--

—Two skinned corpses hung upside down, hanging on both sides of the front hall.

The shopkeeper picked up the cup and went to collect the blood water, which was used as an auxiliary material for the butter tea soup.

"Why don't you talk? Are you afraid?"

Meteor pursed his lips and looked at Jason. They all have a strange expression of "the old man on the subway looks at his phone. jpg".

To be honest, the impact of this picture is a bit strong, no matter how happy you are, you will feel a little guilty.

Meteor whispered: "The BOSS guarding the gate is too heavyweight, right? I didn't expect this kind of scene as soon as I entered the gate, Jason. Do you have any idea? Is there still a middle way, a bottom closing and a hidden BOSS behind? What kind of extreme is that?" ?”

Jason said in a super low voice: "Generally, the fiercest and most vicious dog in the house is used to guard the door. Isn't this the most common sense? The Viking warriors are made by the North Wind. The Viking Warriors are made by the North Wind."

The shopkeeper took his time and took a sip of the sweet and bloody tea.

"Don't be afraid, the one on your left is the pretty boy I paid for, and the one on the right is the mistress who had an affair with him—they all died well, and they are considered to be at the end of their lives."

Her thick shoulders and neck trembled as she stood up from the chair.

She wasn't angry or threatened, and even Bu Liuxing didn't feel any spiritual pressure.

Her voice is like the wind blowing an iron pot, like a low-pitched bell.

"These two sluts have taken too much from me. I am sad, but I can't cry, and I dare not cry - I don't think life should be like this."

She gently picked the big hot dog with the little boy's face, then cut it off with a knife, and threw it into a corner, and immediately a disaster beast in the shadows took it away and ate it.

"The value of a person should be based on what he contributes, not what he obtains. These are the words of the most intelligent people in the world."

When she came to Bu Liuxing, she still didn't open her eyes, she bent her head to smell the smell of Meteor, and smelled Gucci's perfume.

"It smells so good! You smell so good! Your smell is so powerful!"

She bent down to Meteor's ear, breathing heavily, like a tiger.

"Give me your pyroxene stone? I'll give it back to you just by looking at it. We will become relatives, just like the ceremony where the little black cat recognizes the stone with you. It's the theme of love. You see How about it?"
