Chapter 362 Bad Person
Seeing that the other party was ungrateful, the girl could only pout and turn around to leave. But not long after, she changed into a linen cotton robe, tied a small belt, put on a pair of beastskin boots, carried a small vine basket, and walked back.
“Uncle, it’s time to change the dressing.” She said patiently, her tone much more modest. Perhaps because of the change of address, the young man immediately lifted the blanket and sat up. He was covered in bandages, just like his father had said, like a mummy. Thinking of this, the girl couldn’t help but smile.
“What are you laughing at?” The young man looked at her and asked ill.
“No … maybe it’s the sand in your eyes.” The girl randomly found a reason to prevaricate. However, this reason was too far-fetched, so much so that the other party felt that his intelligence had been insulted. He could not help but roll his eyes and ignore her.
Then, the young man took off his bandage and circled around it. As the bandages fell, large areas of rotting skin were exposed. The innermost layer of bandage was completely soaked. It was covered in translucent mucus and half thick blood. It looked very disgusting. However, the girl’s expression did not change. She seemed to have gotten used to it, because in the southern cemetery, there was no shortage of people whose bodies were completely festering.
A few minutes later, the young man removed a large pile of bloody and sticky bandages, revealing half of his corroded skin.
“Get me some medical alcohol and wipe my body. I’ll give you a gold coin.” The young man said.
“A gold coin!” The girl was shocked and repeated with a face full of disbelief. In the southern cemetery, a gold coin was equivalent to the meals of an ordinary family for more than ten days.
“Yes.” The young man nodded.
“Certainly, sir.” The girl said excitedly. Then, she threw down the small vine basket in her hand and ran to the bar. A few seconds later, she ran back and emphasized, “Don’t lie to me!”
However, the young man did not say anything. He directly raised his hand and a gold coin popped out. “Ding!” With a crisp sound, the gold coin drew an arc and landed steadily on the bar a few meters away, stopping at the same spot to spin.
“Wow! Uncle is so powerful ~” The girl’s eyes lit up and she immediately shouted. It wasn’t until the gold coins stopped spinning that she put them into her pocket happily. Then, she found the medical alcohol under the bar, put it in a large wooden basin, poured a large amount of water to dilute it, and finally brought it to the bed.
The young man reached for the diluted alcohol and sniffed it. After feeling satisfied, he got out of bed and squatted on the ground and said to her, “Charge.”
“Ah? You … aren’t you afraid of pain?” The girl hesitated and poured alcohol on it. Ordinary people were afraid that they would go crazy from pain.
“Stop talking.” The young man said.
“Oh” The girl answered, then picked up the big wooden basin and slowly poured it over the young man’s head.
“Hiss” When the ice-cold alcohol/water touched his skin, the young man’s entire body trembled and he took a deep breath, looking extremely painful. Just as she wanted to stop, she was stopped by the other party’s gaze, so she could only continue to fall.
In the swaying flames, alcohol/water mixed with pus and blood flowed down the ankle to the ground and gradually seeped into the ground. Dozens of seconds later, the girl poured out a large basin of water. At the request of the young man, she rearranged another basin and continued to pour it down.
“Keke …” After pouring the second basin of alcohol/water, the young man didn’t know if it was because of the cold or the pain. His teeth kept trembling and it took him a long time to calm down. Then, she took out a small glass bottle from the small vine basket, evenly sprinkled the white powder for anti-inflammation and hemostasis on the other party’s rotting skin, and then bandaged him.
After she had done all this, the young man climbed back to his bed and took out a half-finger long pale yellow potion from his backpack in the corner, giving himself a needle. Then he picked up the porridge on the small cabinet and drank it in large mouthfuls.
In the blink of an eye, the young man finished his porridge and handed her the wooden bowl.
“Do you want more?” She asked.
“Yes.” The young man nodded.
Then, seeing the girl disappear from the kitchen, the young man took out a masonry hammer from under the pillow, looked at it for a few times, and stuffed it back in. This young man was Tie Zha. He had been lost in the dense fog in the high-radiation area that day, running around like a headless fly. It took him five days to get out of the fog. After finding the nearest path through the compass and simple map, he was exhausted, so he could only lie on the roadside and pretend to be dead, trying his luck. Unexpectedly, the situation was not bad. Half a day later, he finally met an honest person after being unlucky for so many days.
For this reason, he imitated the Cozan of the past and said in his heart, “Thank you for your ancestor’s protection.”
During this period of time, as long as he was free, he would use the lightning hammer to ponder it over and over again, but he couldn’t find any clues. He had no choice but to put it aside for the time being and consider the problem before him. First, he must survive, then find a way to supply ammunition and medicine, preferably a motorcycle; Secondly, he needed to find a way to contact other fire seeds. Otherwise, he would be too weak to do much alone. In the end, although he got the Thunderhammer, You Ge could send people to search at any time. Besides You Ge, there might be other powers interested in the Thunderhammer.
The guidance left behind by the Great Prophet of Glory in the Lightning Hammer was very likely a huge amount of startup capital. If you can’t even afford basic equipment, why bother to revive and make a comeback?
There must be a lot of people who knew about this rumor, and Bi Qinglan would definitely know about it if she didn’t mention anything else. He really couldn’t figure out what this crazy woman was thinking. It was as if an enemy was not an enemy, and it was as if a friend was not a friend. However, he had heard that Bi Qinglan had set off a bloody storm in the territory of the Snake Race in the Far East, killing thousands of people overnight and completely seizing the power of the Snake Race. Perhaps she was already a giant crocodile now. As for the new regime, what it lacked the most was money …
From this, it could be seen that there was another person on his hostile list.
Yoga Lombar and Bi Qinglan were not even ants compared to these two great enemies. An ant could still bite back and bite a small bag. He didn’t even have the chance to speak.
In her thoughts, the girl poured a large bowl of steaming porridge and slowly brought it over with her hands and feet, placing it on the small cabinet.
“Thank you.” Tie Zha said politely.
“It’s fine.” The girl replied crisply. Then, she smiled and introduced herself, “Hello, Uncle. My name is Susan.”
Tie Zha glanced at her and said his name.
“Hello, Tie Zha.” The girl stretched out her hand towards him generously, and he could only shake it symbolically.
“Uncle, where did you come from?” The girl asked curiously. To her, this young man was filled with a mysterious aura. Regardless of whether it was his words, behavior, or his gaze, he was different from the people here. Although she could not tell the exact difference, she could feel the difference between them.
“Northern Wilderness Continent, Tieshan Town.” Said Tie Zha.
“Then it must be very far, right?” “Not bad.” “Is that beautiful? I mean … are there any trees and flowers?” “There are no flowers, only sparse weeds. It’s similar to here. There are endless wilderness everywhere.”
“I heard that the Great Golden Triangle in the Northern Wilderness Continent is very beautiful. There are golden rivers, mysterious seas of flowers, snow mountains and lakes. Everywhere there are trees and flowers everywhere.” The girl said with rapt interest.
‘”Never been” said Tie Zha in a low spirited manner, and then a basin of cold water splashed down. “That’s where bad people live. Good people don’t live there.” You Ge has almost turned him into a hornet’s nest, and he feels that it’s only right to say a few bad words about her.
“Aiya … why do bad people live in beautiful places, but good people can only live in the wilderness?” The girl asked innocently.
“That’s because …” Tie Zha thought for a moment and said, “Bad people are silver-haired.” “Ah … why?” “There’s no reason. Anyway, bad people are silver-haired.” Tie Zha waved his hand irritably and ended the conversation. It had to be said that the speed at which You Ge flipped his face was even faster than flipping through a book, which really made him feel a little annoyed. In less than 20 seconds, she had already decided to kill him. Were all the previous events fake?
Even though he said “I’ll give you a chance to retrieve the lightning hammer”, deep down in his heart, he still treats You Ge as his lover. He feels that even if he wants to kill him, it should be some time. However, he never expected that she would issue a killing order on the spot, allowing him to fully witness the decisive and cold-blooded slaughter of the Temple Princess.
As he thought about it, the anesthetic worked. A burst of tiredness quietly assaulted him, and he gradually fell asleep.
A few hours later …
In the afternoon, he was awakened by a commotion, and opened his eyes, and saw two strong men in vests sitting by the fire, eating bread and ham, and drinking ale and chatting.
“When will this damn winter end? If this continues, the money will soon run out.” One of the men complained.
“I really can’t. We’ll set off next month. Those who put in supplies, no matter what season it is.” Another big man said.
“Damn it, if you enter the high radiation zone in winter, your skin will rot even faster.” “But there are also corresponding benefits. There are fewer mutated beasts and fewer people competing. If we can find a supply chest, we won’t have to worry about it for at least half a year.” “Gritting my teeth, I’ll work for another two to three years. If I can find a red material box, I’ll buy a house in Graytower Town and marry a beautiful girl to live a peaceful life. This kind of life is really not human.” “Red … Brother, don’t think too much. It’s good to find a green one.”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Tie Zha remembered the information he had consulted before. Each red box contained three thousand atonement coins and a hundred gold coins. If he could find them, it would be equivalent to winning a prize. The World Council and the Temple were racking their brains to allow insecticides to enter high-radiation areas to control the number of mutated creatures. All sorts of temptations emerged one after another.
The official purchasing power of one atonement coin was equivalent to one gold coin, but it could only be used in the southern cemetery, so the exchange rate was eight silver and six bronze for one atonement coin. If it had been a few days ago, he would have spent more than 5,000 gold in half a month. But now, his entire body didn’t add up to five hundred gold, so he had to think of a way to make money.
