In fact, Hedong City was not that much safer.
Every few days, the roar of heavy machine guns or fighter jets would be heard above the city. Although Hedong City's outer defenses were strong enough to block attacks from the ground, they could not completely block the birds and insects that flew past at high speed. However, once you got used to it, it was no big deal.
The adaptability of humans was the strongest. Those who could survive until now had already trained their nerves to be extremely strong. Sometimes, they even felt that this was normal.
Luo Yuan sat on the bed with his legs crossed and his palms facing the sky. His face was calm, giving off a peaceful vibe. After a while, he slowly opened his eyes and let out a sigh of relief.
"Quick, give me a few massages. Are my legs numb?" Luo Yuan said, gasping for air. The moment he opened his mouth, the peaceful atmosphere disappeared without a trace.
"Can't you let me have a good night's sleep? You're always like this!" Huang Jiahui grumbled and turned to sleep in another direction.
Ever since that incident, the two of them had sex a few more times in secret. Then, it was only natural that they slept together.
"It's getting late. It's almost dawn." Luo Yuan smiled and lay down. He hugged Huang Jiahui and put his hand under her pajamas.
Huang Jiahui's body went limp and she panted slightly. She bit her lip and whispered, "Didn't you have enough fun last night?"
"Yesterday was yesterday, today is today." Luo Yuan breathed in her fragrant body scent and whispered in her ear.
"Stop fooling around. Wang Shishi should wake up by now. It'll be bad if she hears us." Huang Jiahui pressed his hand down and glared at him. "I'm not as shameless as you."
Luo Yuan laughed dryly and hesitated. He thought about how he had found out that Wang Shishi had been eavesdropping at the door the night before. Although the discovery had made him very excited, he had made love to Huang Jiahui until her eyes were blank and her body was twitching. She had only recovered after a while, but he felt that it was inappropriate. "Alright, we'll talk about it tonight."
"You animal!" Huang Jiahui complained bitterly. She pulled up the blanket and soon fell asleep again. She was really exhausted last night.
Luo Yuan raised his eyebrows. When the numbness in his legs subsided, he pulled the blanket away and got dressed.
This kind of meditation didn't require any technique at all. It was just trying to sit as calmly as possible. Of course, it didn't mean that one had to sit cross-legged or face upwards! As long as he calmed down, he could even lie down or stand up. The biggest reason for this posture was actually psychological cues. The correct gesture, the correct sitting posture, and the appropriate psychological cues would naturally allow people to get twice the results with half the effort.
In fact, that was indeed the case. At the very least, when he was lying down, he would completely fall asleep after a few minutes. Just based on this point, a small sequela like numbness in his legs could be completely ignored.
As for the effect, it was neither good nor bad, but it was true that it was easy for him to calm down. In the beginning, his thoughts were all over the place. Now, he could gradually restrain his mind. Occasionally, he could even achieve a temporary state of emptiness. However, there was still a long way to go before he could truly master the saber.
Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi woke up one after the other after Luo Yuan had practiced in the living room for more than an hour.
Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi also woke up after breakfast.
Very quickly, he arrived at the entrance of the market and took out a few months old newspaper from his pocket. He spread it out and sat down. He put down a black owl feather and took out a piece of chalk to write, "Buy it at a high price!"
At first, the results of Black Owl's feather experiment were very bad. He was going to synthesize the feather onto his Zhanmadao or bulletproof vest to see what effect it would have if he integrated the wind energy. Unfortunately, the feather exploded with a bang and disappeared without a trace.
The synthesis had failed!
If it wasn't for the fact that he had cut the feather into several pieces before the experiment, and that he had only taken an inch of it during the synthesis, which was too little, he was afraid that it wouldn't be the feather that was destroyed, but the Zhanmadao. The result left him with lingering fear.
During the next experiment, he was even more careful. He used his Zhanmadao to cut a small piece the size of a fingernail from the snake scale bulletproof vest.
The experiment continued to fail, and both the feather and the feather exploded.
However, it would be a waste to not use the feather. Therefore, he changed the subject of his experiment.
Perhaps a blue level item could not be combined with two blue level materials.
Luo Yuan realized that other than the two blue level items, the black owl feather could be combined with almost any ordinary item, even a kitchen knife. Apart from the normal attributes, it had also gained speed. Luo Yuan was pleasantly surprised. Of course, because he had only fused a few feathers, most of them were white level.
That night, Huang Jiahui was surprised to find that the kitchen knife was very handy.
Since it had increased his speed, Luo Yuan naturally wanted to make the best use of it.
Pants, shoes, clothes, none of them could be missing. However, when Luo Yuan fused a complete feather into his pants, the evaluation was still white. Suddenly, he realized that he needed feathers, a lot of them.
There had been a lot of feathers falling from the sky. Even though he had been at the back of the traffic, he had still picked up five feathers. The people in front of him must have picked up more. What he wanted was to collect all of them.
The market was at its peak in the morning. Many people had the habit of buying groceries before going to work, so the entrance of the market was crowded.
After a while, someone came over to ask.
"What's the use of these feathers that you're buying here?" A somewhat dull middle-aged man squatted down and asked tentatively.
"To make bulletproof vests." Luo Yuan looked at him and said calmly, "If you have them, I'll buy them at a high price!"
The middle-aged man nodded and continued to ask, "This thing is really tough. But to make one, you'll need a lot of feathers, right? "
"If you want real bulletproof vests, you'll need at least three or four layers. About 30 to 40 feathers would be enough."
"That many?" the middle-aged man mumbled to himself.
Luo Yuan smiled. People with such a reaction must have some feathers. Otherwise, they wouldn't have asked so many questions. He said, "If you don't have a lot, I wouldn't be buying them in bulk."
The middle-aged man thought that Luo Yuan was right, so he gave up on the idea. "I have a few, but it depends on how much you're willing to pay."
"A military bulletproof vest now costs about 50 catties of food stamps. How about one feather for three catties of food stamps?"
"That's too cheap. How can the old bulletproof vests compare to this biological bulletproof vest?" He shook his head. "Although the military only has a limited number of biological bulletproof vests, I've heard that they're much more bulletproof and portable than the old ones. Three catties definitely won't do. At least five catties of food stamps!"
The middle-aged man was a kind man, so he didn't offer a ridiculous price. However, he didn't want the man to feel that he was losing out and regret his decision. Luo Yuan still looked like he was in pain as he continued to haggle. After a few rounds of bargaining, the two of them finally made a deal at the price of 4.5 feathers.
The middle-aged man looked excited. He hurried back to collect the feathers after the deal was done.
While he was waiting, Luo Yuan made another deal with another person.
When it was almost noon, Luo Yuan had already collected more than 30 feathers. Just as he was about to close the stall, another person stood in front of him.
His body was exceptionally tall, and he gave off a sense of oppression just by standing there. At this moment, there was a hint of hesitation on his fierce face. "Boss Luo!?"
Luo Yuan raised his head and felt that the man looked familiar. He smiled when he recalled who he was.
"Qian Dakui!" Luo Yuan had a deep impression of this strong man with a knife and shield during the rat tide at the East City dump. "Long time no see. When did you come here?"
"The third batch, but I got into a fight with the people from Hedong City and was locked up for a while. I just came out recently." Qian Dakui's voice was loud. The people from Hedong City frowned and looked disgusted. If it wasn't for his fierce look, they would have already beaten him up.
Qian Dakui didn't care. He picked up the feather and looked at it carefully. "Why is Boss Luo buying this?"
"You have it too?" Luo Yuan said. "I need this kind of feather, not the others."
"This kind. We found one a few days ago in the suburbs. It was killed by a machine gun. The feather looks like this, but it's already rotten. You want it? "
Luo Yuan was happy. "Of course, where is it?"
"It's dangerous there. We found it by accident when we were running for our lives. But it's not a problem for Boss Luo! "Qian Dakui laughed, his eyes shining. He knew Luo Yuan's ability. He had fought with a knife and a gun within ten meters, but Luo Yuan had killed him easily. It was unbelievable.
"So you've been to the wild? Don't the army care?" Luo Yuan asked. He remembered that the whole of Hedong City was fortified. If they wanted to go to the wild, they had to go through the army first.
"Of course not! They buy meat at a low price and rent weapons. Otherwise, where would we get so much meat in Hedong City?" Qian Dakui said disdainfully.
Luo Yuan knew what Qian Dakui was trying to do, but it was what he wanted. How many feathers could a black owl have? He believed that he could synthesize one or two pieces of blue equipment. He had been quiet for a long time, so he was eager to try. "When and where?"
"How about tomorrow morning? Let's meet at the market. I'll introduce some friends to you, "Qian Dakui said excitedly.
"Okay!" Luo Yuan nodded.
The two of them chatted for a while before they parted ways. They had a tacit understanding not to exchange contact information, which could sometimes be a fatal weakness for people like them.
