  Chapter 118 hopes that our neighbors can feed the wolves.

Outside the outpost, there is heavy snow.

At the south gate, Yu Hu dressed in fur clothes drove over from the direction of Beit Street under the heavy snow.

After arriving at the outpost, Yu Hu originally wanted to find Chu Guang, but he didn't find it, but he happened to see the long line in front of the nursing home.

Approaching a little closer, I saw his younger sister sitting at a small wooden table.

The immature face is meticulous.

She stretched out her little hand and took the Silver Coin from the blue jackets in the line. After carefully counting the total number of coins, she tapped a few times on a screen.

"A total of 41!"

lifts the head, she looked at the players in front of the counter with a sweet smile on her face.

"Crabs! Take care when taking risks."

"Wu wu wu...Damn, Si! Borrow money from me! I want to save!"

Sisi stood behind, stroking his forehead with a headache, and reached out to pull the sleeve of his tail.

"Alright, Oh, don’t be ashamed here, let’s block the people behind."

"Don’t you think it’s cute! You have no love Woman!"

"Lovely, cute, let’s say that the convoy of the greenhouse ruins will start in a while, can you still go?"

"Go! Damn it," Why do I have to work part-time during the day and part-time at night! What about a good casual game? Can’t you let me stay with cute things for a while!"

"I’m really sorry that I’m not cute enough, anyway, don’t talk nonsense. , It’s important to earn money to buy equipment for leveling. Let’s go, if you don’t leave, the Old Brother behind will hit someone."

The tail that was still yelling was pulled away like this.

At this time, a Great White Bear came out from behind and stood sneakily in front of the counter, holding the door frame with some restrained hands.

Seeing this big bear, Xiaoyu was slightly stunned, but he was not afraid, and soon a sweet smile appeared on his face.

"Do you want to save money?"

With fur covered and blushing, Roshan's big steamed bun clumsily took out the purse and poured the coins inside onto the table. .

"I, I and I, I will give you all!"

Looking at the Great White Bear who left behind with the money, Xiaoyu said quickly.

"Ah, wait, wait, that, ID."

"I gave it to you!!"

Finally, thanks to Xiaoqi's help, Xiaoyu found out the Great White Bear's ID.

After carefully counting the coins on the table, Xiaoyu did what Chu Guang taught himself and registered the numbers on the VM.

Although Yu Hu can't understand or understand what those blue coats are talking about, it doesn't seem to be embarrassing his younger sister.

When the Great White Bear ran out, he was instinctively startled. If it weren't for the people around him, he would almost pull out his bow and arrow and shoot.

At this time, Chu Guang walked over from the side and looked at Yu Hu said with a smile.

"Why don't you go over and say hello?"

"No, I will just take a look, and I won't disturb her work," Yu Hu laughed honestly and touched the back of his head. "Didn't expect Xiaoyu to be so capable, I was always worried last night, I was afraid that she would cause you trouble."

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"Why? Your younger sister is very smart and learns very fast, but no one taught her a lot of things."

Yu Hu sighed said.

"Father, I still have my brother. I usually have to go hunting and I can’t teach her anything. My mother taught her pancakes, but she hasn’t done very well. I did it last night. I was worried about whether she would mess up. I came here not early in the morning. I was still thinking about it when she was on the way. If she really got into trouble, I would take her back if I said anything. But now... Let Xiaoyu follow you, it’s really better than following us."

"You can’t say that," Chu Guang shook the head, "You still come to see her often, no matter how warm the bed is, it’s not as good as Stay with your family."

A warm bed?   Is it progressing so fast?   Yu Hu froze, nodded.

"You are right...then I will leave first."

Chu Guang said politely.

"In such a hurry to go back? Stay and have lunch before leaving."

"No, no," Yu Hu shook his head repeatedly, waved his hand and said, "I won't be here to disturb you. , I will go hunting in a while, you are busy first, and I will go back."

Chu Guang no longer stays, nodded.

"Be careful on the road."

……

Coming out of the north gate, Yu Hu was in a good mood. Although there was snow in the sky, he felt Warm, more comfortable than drinking.

But at this moment, he saw a caravan full of bricks with a person standing beside it.

The man looked familiar.

Yu Hu approached and took a look, his eyes immediately widened.

"Zhao Shu?!"

"Yu Hu?!"

"Wait, aren't you dead? I see your house, funeral It's all done."

Yu Hu still doesn't speak the same way, but Zhao Shu doesn't care about these things at the moment. When he meets a fellow in his hometown, it is really a tearful one.

"Brother, I almost died! Fortunately, these blue coats saved me!"

It took about five minutes, Zhao Shu and Yu Hu talked about After more than a month's experience, from being caught by a robber while hunting, and then later this group of blue coats broke through the stronghold of the Bloodhand clan and placed themselves in the brick factory by the river.

Although instinctively felt that being caught by a robber was a bit weird, Yu Hu's head didn't understand too complicated things, so he quickly paid attention to other places.

"...In other words, you are working for the Chu big brothers now?"

Zhao Shu said in a daze.

"Big brother Chu? Are you talking about the manager? Anyway, it’s quite comfortable to work here. I take care of food and lodging. I have meat at every meal. I also provide firewood and charcoal for warmth. I pay it every day. The wages for 1Silver Coin. What I do every day is to use molds to make bricks, and then send them into the kiln to burn them, and then transport the burned bricks back without getting tired."

Yu Hu nodded , Asked.

"Then you won't go back anymore?"

A complicated expression appeared on Zhao Shu's face.

"Go back...Where are you going back? My father and mother, my big brother and their two children are left at home. The little food left is barely enough for the winter, I am If I go back, the food at home will definitely not be enough. Let’s talk about it when the spring starts next year, when the time comes... Wait until when the time comes.” After talking, Zhao Shu suddenly remembered One thing, threw down the sentence "Wait for me", then turned around and ran into the gate.

After a while, he took a small bag of coarse salt, about two or three, and stuffed it into Yu Hu's hand.

"This is what I exchanged for my wages. Take it back for me and give it to my mother, just say...I'm fine, let them not worry! I will visit them next spring! And Yang Ergou, he is still alive...but now he is busy, you can tell his family if you want."

Taking the salt, Yu Hu solemnly nodded.

"Don't worry, I will convey it for you!"

Yu Hu returned the same way.

However, when passing by the south gate of the Wetland Park, Yu Hu suddenly noticed that not far from his footprints, there was a series of footprints that did not belong to him.

The footprints are very shallow, I have been watching it for some time.

Out of the hunter's vigilance, Yu Hu squatted down, rubbed his index finger on it, frowning faintly.

Whose footprint is this?

……

Beit Street.

After hurriedly entering the door, Wang Biao went straight to Old Charlie's grocery store.

"Old steward!"

Charlie, who was sitting in front of the door with his eyes closed, opened half of his eyes. When he saw Wang Biao, he immediately understood and stood on his chair. Up.

"Come in and talk."

The curtain was pulled up.

Wang Biao looked excited, without a breath of breath, and happily followed what he saw and heard about Yu Hu all the way, and reported to the old steward.

The more Charlie listened, his brows gradually frowned.

"You mean... Linghu Wetland Park, a survivor settlement appeared?"

Wang Biao suddenly nodded.

"Yes! Where are the blue coats, and the refugees who don’t know where they came from... I guess they should come from the north. They built walls in the woods, dug trenches, and put them away. Barricades. I can't see in the camp, but there is a chimney that keeps smoking."

"From the north?"

Charlie's brow furrowed tighter.

To the north is the territory of the Bloodhand clan, and there seems to be a mutant tribe not far away.

What is the difference between building a settlement there and giving it away?   And...

Those robbers are all cannibals who don't spit out bones. How could they be allowed in.

Wang Biao didn't care about that much, he just yelled excitedly.

"Old Steward, Yu Family has broken the rules, let's catch him soon!"

He has seen Yu Family displeased a long time ago.

Especially the kid Yu Hu beat him Third Brother. There is also the shed for the outsider. I didn’t even leave a door beam for them. I took it all for myself. I even argued with the courage of one's convictions, saying what was given to him by others. It was shameless. .

Wang Biao’s abacus is very loud. According to the rules of Bate Street, privately trading with foreign caravans will be regarded as betrayal. A piece of animal skin will be fined, and the property will be confiscated and expelled. .

It doesn't matter whether those people are considered as caravans, what he cares about is the shed where Yu Hu lives. If he can be expelled, his family will be able to take over the shed of the outsider.

However, old Charlie is a knowledgeable person, and naturally impossible is as short-sighted as him.

The blue jacket...

He used to be too, although it was a long, long time ago.

After thinking for a long time, Charlie said cautiously.

"This matter is not urgent, remember not to beat the grass to scare the snake. I will report the situation to the mayor before making a decision."

Wang Biao was stunned. .

What else can I ask for?

If you just copy the house directly, you will be over.

As long as the Lord Mayor gave an order, Wang Family was the first to respond.

However, this old steward didn't talk nonsense with him.

Throwing 4 white chips in his hand, Old Charlie drove him out of the grocery store, then locked the door again, and hurriedly moved towards the middle of the town.

……

The mayor and his family live in the old castle in the middle of Beit Street.

This castle was originally built as an entertainment facility, but now it has become a symbol of the apex of the pyramid.

The ruler of this small town lives in the castle. The servants, guards, and protagonists live in the brick-and-wood house near the castle, and beyond are the dilapidated shack.

Asked the guard on duty at the door for instructions. After a simple body search, Old Charlie was allowed to enter.

When he stepped into the great hall on the first floor, he happened to see two lovely children playing football in the hall on the first floor of the castle.

The clothes on their bodies are made of buckskin, so are the balls they are playing. The clean faces and carefree smiles are not the children outside.

Noting Charlie at the door, the slightly older boy shook his brown curly hair and picked up the ball on the ground.

"Charlie? Are you back? Do you want to play football together?"

"Sorry, Young Master, I'm afraid I can't play with you... I'm here to find you Father's."

The boy's face was disappointed, and he said impatiently.

"Go, he is in the study."

Charlie bowed his head respectfully.

From the side, bypassing the children's playground, under the leadership of a servant, he came to the elevator room and took the elevator to the top floor.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, warm air blew in.

In the fireplace directly opposite, the fire was burning and the firewood crackled.

"I know the way."

Nodded to the servant, Charlie walked through the porch on the left and came to a two-person high gate.

This is the study room of Lord Mayor.

Rows of bookshelves are displayed in the study room. The bookshelves are filled with novels, poems and some strange collections picked up by scavengers from outside.

Sitting at the antique wooden table, the mayor was drinking tea leisurely. The intermittent sound from the radio on the table is exactly what he loves to listen to by the Red-Tailed Orchestra.

There are three major radio stations in Boulder City, one of which can be heard even in the northern suburbs of Qingquan City.

Every evening from 6 to 7 o’clock, the radio will repeatedly broadcast the transaction prices of today’s bulk commodities. From 7 to 10 o’clock, we will teach the planting experience of cam trees and spiritual leaves, which are in demand, such as cash crops. In the middle There will also be advertisements for arms dealers and clones.

As for other times, the pop music of the pre-war era is played repeatedly, and this is also Old Town Head's favorite show, which can make him forget bad times for a short time.

Even in the ears of real "pre-war people", these are old pastimes.

Quietly waiting for the song to finish, Charlie walked to the desk and bowed his eyebrows respectfully.

"My lord, I have something urgent to report to you."

The mayor raised his eyelids and said casually.

"What's the matter?"

In his opinion, the urgent thing that old Charlie can report is nothing more than the cockroaches in the shack outside, and what moths are causing.

Those people are like weeds, they will grow up after a while, and he has never cared about them.

Old Charlie lowered his head and continued.

"Linghu Wetland Park in the north, there has been a survivor settlement, with a population of about 100 or more...maybe more."

"Linghu Wetland Park? Survival The crowd?! How could it be possible!"

The teacup was heavily placed on the table, and the mayor sat upright from the chair, staring at Charlie standing at the table, "Is the news accurate?"

"It shouldn't be wrong."

Charlie nodded cautiously, and continued respectfully.

"Their strength should not be underestimated. Some hunters took their prey directly to them, replaced them with salt and meat and brought them back. And it seems that the conditions they offered seemed better than ours. I I am worried that if this continues for a long time, your interests will be damaged...I suggest that we should proactively contact that group and adjust the salt price appropriately."

The look on the mayor’s face is gloomy and uncertain, The index finger tapped lightly on the table, seeming to weigh something.

After a while.

With a slight movement in his heart, he opened the drawer and took out an envelope with bloody hands and a blank letter paper from it.

Picking up the pen and writing a few on it, the mayor stuffed the letter paper into the envelope and threw it into Charlie's hand, who was standing at the table.

"Find someone who is bold and careful and can send this letter to the bloody hands."

Looking at the envelope in his hand, Charlie was taken aback.

"You intend to..."

The mayor said blankly.

"This winter will be very cold, no accident, next month, blood-handed people will come again."

When he thinks of those greedy villains, he just I hate gnash the teeth, but there is no way, his guards combined are not their opponents.

Charlie hesitated a little. After hesitating for a moment, he reminded him cautiously.

"This is probably not a good idea. Also, I don't think the blood-handed people have not found them, and we need to remind--"

"There is no doubt that this is the best Or can you think of a better way?" The mayor waved his hand impatiently, and then said, "We don't have that surplus for them in our granary. We can only give people the food we can't get. You should know the fate of those abducted by robber? Think about the broken families, I am doing this for the good of the people in the town."

By this time, he felt sorry for the town. People out.

Raising the teacup again, looking at the silent old Charlie, the mayor took a sip of warm tea and slowly spoke.

"The weather is getting worse and worse."

"Pray, hope our neighbors can feed those wolves."

Charlie bowed his head respectfully .

"Follow your orders."

The mayor was nodded with satisfaction.

"Go on... By the way, when you go back, let the spoilers collect more firewood and try to dry them. The dry firewood burns up crackling, listening to the noise "

Charlie lowered his head and exited the study with the envelope.

"Yes, my lord."
