Chapter 1381 My cousin is here. Do you think I am a good person?
Luo You, this name can be said to be like a meteor streaking across the sky in the ruins of the future, bright and dazzling.
His rise was like a bolt of lightning, instantly lighting up the night sky in the wasteland, but what is sad is that his fall was just as fast, burning up like a meteor, leaving behind a beautiful arc. , and disappeared into the endless darkness.
Unlike Xi Ruyue, those warriors who heroically killed enemies on the battlefield and became famous in one battle, Luo You's fame did not come from his bravery in charging into battle.
He is not famous in another way, like Qiao Yuansheng, by formulating an identity system that caused huge controversy.
Luo You's talent has its own unique way of showing off.
He is a "thief".
But this thief is not that thief, he is not an ordinary little thief, but a monster with super language talent, an amazing wizard.
Relying on constantly deciphering various alien languages, Luo You repeatedly led his team to sneak into the alien camp and obtained countless vital information. This information not only provided valuable intelligence support for human strategic deployment, but also The war between humans and aliens laid the foundation for victory.
It can be said that in the early series of battles in Longqi, Luo You accounted for at least 20% of the credit.
Luo You's most famous battle demonstrated his extraordinary language talent and strategic vision.
Through meticulous observation and analysis, and from some subtle flaws in the language, he identified the traitors of the Demon Soul Clan lurking inside Longqi, and then skillfully used these traitors to deliver false news. , causing the Demon Soul Clan to fall into chaos and confusion.
In the end, under the ambush of Long Qi's army, the Demon Soul Clan was almost completely wiped out.
However, what is regrettable is that it was the heavy losses this time that made the foreign race fully realize the threat of Luo You, and sent out assassins at all costs to get rid of this language genius.
When people just heard that the name ‘Luo You’ was coming from the foreign tribe, the next thing was the obituary notice from Long Qi.
It's a pity.
It is as bright as a shooting star, but also as short-lived as a shooting star.
Once again, Sumo is not willing to let such people go to other gathering places. Even if they are people from Longqi, he will cut off their beards in advance.
But the information collected did not say that Luo You was a lame?
Sumo pondered for a moment and asked: "I don't know if he is lame. Do the other characteristics match?"
"That's right, that's right!"
The middle-aged man nodded excitedly: "Luo Laizi happens to have two children. The older one is called Luo Xiang and the younger one is called Luo Jiao. Xiang's baby was born some time ago He also delivered goods to me. I don’t know whether his father is 1.7 meters tall, but he is not tall and his accent is from the north.”
When I heard the other party accurately mention the two children. Sumo immediately realized that he had found the right person.
Perhaps due to changes in the real wasteland and future ruins, Luo You turned from a healthy person into a cripple.
It’s really sad.
Fortunately, this time he no longer needed to charge forward and enter the alien race to get information.
"Take me there, and you will allocate the reward among yourselves."
Taking out the bag of candy from his backpack, Sumo thought about it, then took out an extra bar of chocolate and gave it to the one who spoke. Middle-aged people.
"This is yours, take me there now."
"Boss, you are indeed the boss!" The thin middle-aged man took it as if he had found a treasure, weighed it, The corners of his mouth were grinning to the base of his ears: "My name is Ma Benchun, you can just call me Xiaoma!"
Take this chocolate to the supplies department and it can be exchanged for a week's rations for an adult.
And he was just leading the way. He didn't even need half a night to go back and forth, and he made a lot of money.
"Luo Laizi's home is over the reed marsh. Let's go by boat. We can get there in less than three hours."
"Take my boat. I am strong and I can row well." Hurry!”
Beardless Mr. Hu ran back in a hurry. When he saw that the transaction was over, he had no choice but to start selling again, patting his chest.
Oh my god, where did the God of Wealth come from? He could give out such good things so easily.
I don’t know if Naluo Laizi has smoke coming out of his ancestral grave, but he can actually have a relationship with such a person.
"How can I take my boat, Ji... The boss is taking my boat this afternoon, why are you trying to rob me?" Lao Gong said unwillingly, not wanting to be outdone.
He was the one who brought the person back.
He also found Ma Benchun.
This Lao Zhang is not authentic at all, and he immediately betrayed his conscience when he saw the God of Wealth.
"Uh" Lao Zhang scratched his head in embarrassment and realized that his current behavior seemed a bit excessive.
Sumo finally opened his mouth to smooth things over.
"You three, come with me, two old uncles. I have to ask you to help me go to the dock to collect some more things. I brought them as gifts, do you understand?"
“Yes, of course we understand.”
The bearded man breathed a sigh of relief and immediately laughed, as long as he could keep up with the God of Wealth.
Although Lao Gong was somewhat reluctant to have anyone involved, he did not dare to speak out to refute Sumo's decision.
The two of them ran to the busy pier purchasing point and quickly bought back a lot of things.
Considering that it is a gift, it is not suitable to take all the fish there.
Lao Zhang relied on his rich experience and vision to carefully select several rare parallel imports. He specially selected some finger-thick shrimps. These shrimps are delicious and can be eaten as soon as they are boiled. There are also palm-sized crabs with plump roe, which are the best of the best.
In addition, he also selected some other aquatic products to ensure a rich variety of gifts.
Old Gong Ze was really rich. He first asked Ma Benchun to inquire about the current situation of Xia Luo Laizi. After learning that Luo Laizi was in poor health recently and needed to be nursed back to health, he bought two pieces of palm-sized wild boar meat with skin. And a bunch of fresh wild vegetables.
Food is the most important thing for the people, and these are the hard goods among hard goods.
Su Mo originally thought that the two people wanted to take the opportunity to make a profit from him, but he was still a little embarrassed after hearing the price.
One pound of wild boar meat with skin only costs sixty hard candies, which costs about fifteen iron coins.
Wild vegetables are also worthless, and only eight candies are needed for a load.
As for the free aquatic products, they were cheap, costing only thirty-five candies.
“This is a naked trade deficit.”
The cost of synthetic glucose converted from starch using enzymatic hydrolysis is extremely low.
Even if the sugar factory in Tianyuan territory only operates at 30% of its production capacity, the daily output is thousands of kilograms.
Maybe there was too much production. After eating one round, everyone still felt that this thing was greasy. They only took two pills to moisten their throats when they went out to work. They didn't even look at it at other times, resulting in lower and lower prices.
Fortunately, before going out this time, Sumo wanted to test the popularity of each product outside, so he brought two boxes of fake Alpine hard candies weighing about 100 kilograms and put them in the storage. in the module.
After all this, it cost less than two kilograms. I immediately took a bunch of supplies and found the target.
So Sumo didn't care whether the two men had falsely reported the numbers, and simply let them settle the bill and leave.
“Boss, boss, do you want anything else?”
The vendor with hard candies in his pocket hurriedly chased after him. His eyes followed the wooden boat that was getting further away, and he couldn't help but shout loudly.
The shouts echoed along the pier, attracting some fishermen around who were busy or chatting.
However, when they discovered that the sampan pointed by the hawker was getting farther and farther away from the pier and gradually disappeared from sight, everyone's curiosity also dissipated and they all returned to their own busy work.
The hustle and bustle of the pier quickly returned to its original state. The scene just now seemed to be just a brief ripple, which passed over the lake and then returned to calm.
However, the vendors who had received the candies gathered together and talked about it.
They all took out the candies in their hands and passed them around to each other, with expressions of curiosity and confusion on their faces.
"This candy looks so new. I don't know where the dragon crossing the river came again."
"It seems that Old Gong brought it back. Let's ask tomorrow. This is a rare item.”
“Hey, I’m lucky tonight. The Materials Department has been collecting this stuff recently. I guess they are preparing it for the Jianyang Order.”
"Shh, keep your voice down, this doesn't have much to do with us anyway, at worst we'll just run away"
"To put it simply, you can run anywhere. This war is really harmful. It's hard to settle down and there will be a lot of troubles. What the hell."
"Come on, just do whatever you have to do. "Don't stand around here, it's useless." The vendors were talking to each other, and at first they were speculating on the origin of the candy, but later the conversation couldn't help but turn to the current situation and troubles of the Hoshino Alliance.
The group of people dispersed noisily, but no one paid attention to the origin of the candy.
Anyway, there are many outsiders, and there is always someone who may have some good stuff. If this thing is rare, that thing is also rare, won’t they die from exhaustion?
"No one is catching up, it seems we don't have to worry."
Lao Zhang wiped the sweat from his head, put away the bamboo pole, looked behind him, and smiled with satisfaction.
Money and silk touch people's hearts. In the wasteland, even relatives occasionally betray each other. Who can blindly trust outsiders?
Fortunately, the vendors they deal with are all with good reputations on the pier, and it seems that they have not caused any big trouble now.
“Is this common?” Sumo sat on the bow of the boat, fanning slowly with a wooden fan.
"It used to be very common, but it's gotten a lot better recently."
Ma Benchun cleverly came to the side, "After settling down, everyone started to abide by the rules, but it will be hard to say next time when chaos breaks out."< br>
The next time chaos occurs, it may be that the Starfield Alliance encounters a difficult enemy, or it may be a sudden disaster.
Or there may simply be internal factional conflicts, which may lead to an instant deterioration of the living environment.
“Everyone still cherishes a stable life. It’s not that they can’t survive, and no one will take risks.”
"Where's Luo Laizi? Tell me about him."
Sitting on a boat, there are more things to talk about.
Knowing that Su Mo was generous, Ma Benchun simply told him everything he knew.
"I am a collector of medicinal materials. In fact, I have not known Luo Laizi for a long time. I met him when I went to collect medicinal materials from the reed swamp. I met his son who came over and bought a lot of medicinal materials. Only then did I know that there are Luo Laizi is such a person.”
“This man is indeed a hard-working man, living in the wasteland with two children alone. I am soft-hearted, so I gave him the channel to purchase medicinal materials over the reed swamp. I asked his son to do it and just sent me a batch of goods last week.”
"As for him, he is quite talkative and has no evil intentions. His left leg must have been seriously injured and he can only walk with a cane. His son bought medicine to treat Luo Laizi's injury."
"Buying medicine? What is their source of income?" Sumo thought for a while and asked aloud.
Seeing a doctor and treating a disease are undoubtedly the two major difficulties in the wasteland.
Being able to afford medicinal materials proves that Luo You must be good at it, so he shouldn't be lame, right?
“Financial source?”
Ma Benchun pondered for a moment, then hesitantly said: "I didn't pay much attention, but I must not be an honest person."
"I'll reward you, please tell me carefully."
Isn't it just to add money? , this is not simple yet, Somo took out two candies from his bag and threw them over.
After Ma Benchun was stunned for a moment and took it, he smiled immediately without any hesitation on his face:
"You have asked the right person now. That guy Luo Laizi is very good at water transportation. He My son is in charge of the boat, and he is responsible for making nests. Every time he goes out, he has gained a lot. That is to say, the water storage in the reed marsh is not very good. If it is replaced by ours, we can probably produce four or five days of water in one day. This is If you don’t get rich, who will get rich?”
"I seem to have an impression of what you said. Did their family do that little fish king last time?" Lao Zhang suddenly turned his head and added.
“Yeah, that’s right, they did it. I heard they sold ten kilograms of white flour.”
Water transportation is good?
Suma secretly kept this in mind.
Being able to decipher the language of foreign races shows that Luo You has strong observation skills. This is actually the same talent as making nests.
It seems that none of the talents who can become famous in the future ruins are simple people.
Even if you have a lame leg and two children, you can still live a more nourishing life than ordinary survivors.
Two people rowed the sampan alternately at a very fast speed.
Before Ma Benchun could finish telling the interesting things he knew about the wasteland, the boat had already arrived near the reed marsh.
Tie the boat to the pier in the reed marsh, pick up the gifts, and the three of them, led by Ma Benchun, walk to Luo Laizi's home.
After walking for about ten minutes, Sumo saw his target. It was a mud house made of mud, barely able to shelter from the wind and rain.
But what is surprising is that at this point, Luo Zizi's house is still dark.
Suddenly, a black shadow suddenly flashed out from the grass next to the earthwork.
It’s a girl.
With Somo's eyesight and reflexes, he spotted the black shadow immediately.
However, he did not make any move, but watched the black shadow pounce on Ma Benchun: "Uncle Ma, please save my father and my brother. They are blocked on the river and they can't come back now."
"Girl?"
Ma Benchun subconsciously wanted to hide, but after seeing the figure's face clearly, his movements slowed down.
"What are you talking about? Why were your father and your brother blocked again?" After saying that, he couldn't help but look at Somo.
What a coincidence.
If he encountered this kind of trouble normally, he would be eager to run away and not bother to listen.
But now, he still doesn’t mind showing off.
“It’s the families at the entrance of the village, the family named Su, the family named Zhang, the Liu family next door, and the Lao Song family from Shuihua Cong.” The girl anxiously clasped her fingers and rattled off seven or eight names in one go. , "They actually united and accused my father of stealing their nest, and now they are demanding huge compensation."
His.
Lao Zhang and Lao Gong suddenly took a breath of cold air, couldn't help but look at each other, and secretly clicked their tongues in their hearts.
There must be at least fifty kilometers between the reeds and the water flowers. The range of this enemy is really wide enough.
And it is unusual to offend so many people. How can ordinary people have this ability?
“Ah this.” Ma Benchun was also a little dumbfounded and didn’t know what to do.
The eyes of the three of them turned to Su Mo at the same time. Luo Jiao also turned her head, her eyes firmly fixed on the middle-aged man with a sallow face.
“Luo Jiao?” Su Mo called softly.
"Who are you?" The girl noticed something was wrong, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she instinctively took half a step back.
However, Su Mo took two steps forward with a smile, stretched out his hand, and touched the girl's head tenderly. His tone was full of doting: "Jiaoer, I am your cousin, why? Don’t even remember me?”
“Cousin?” The girl was stunned. She tried hard to search in her memory, but couldn’t find a face that matched Somo’s.
But then she realized that now was not the time to worry about her identity, what was more important was the safety of her father and brother.
So he said hurriedly: "Cousin, please go and save my father and my brother quickly. They are surrounded by those people on the water now. If I hadn't seen the opportunity and hid, I'm afraid."
Before he finished speaking, several frivolous voices suddenly sounded next to him.
“It turns out that this little girl hasn’t really run away yet, but is hiding.”
“There are still a few fat sheep.”
“Don’t talk nonsense, that’s the old man. I know Ma."
"Let him get out of here. Even if I come here today, I can't save Luo Gou."
I saw six young figures walking out from behind the earthen house. The young man at the head was smiling and carrying a short knife on his shoulder.
The others also held various weapons in their hands, which glowed coldly under the reflection of the moonlight.
When Ma Benchun and the others heard this, their expressions suddenly changed. Even though Su Mo was standing here, they still ran away.
There are not so many rules in the wasteland now, and you are inherently weaker when you are on other people's territory.
No matter what the consequences of staying here, they can't afford it.
"Old guy, you're not leaving yet? You want to die, right?"
I saw Somo standing motionless as if he was frightened.
The young man who spoke first said impatiently and couldn't help but wave the short knife in his hand.
I haven't been provoked like this for a long time in my memory. Even the lords of the million-person territory had to treat him respectfully. Soma was both a little novel and a little funny.
No, do you really think that I am a good person?
