The No.7 Farm was more important to Gao Qi because he had no foundation or connections at the moment. Wang Zihao was the only person he could trust, and the No.7 Farm was the place he was most familiar with other than the school. Therefore, if Gao Qi was protected by Huang Fei, then the No.7 Farm would be protected by Gao Qi.
After all, he had read so many books, so he had to put what he learned into practice. He couldn't do anything too complicated for the time being, but something as simple as a cunning rabbit having three burrows had to be put into practice.
"Do you know where the village that attacked us last time is?"
"Yes."
"Can the car drive there?"
"Yes, but the road is blocked. It's about three kilometers away from the village. There are about a hundred people in the village, so it's not a big village. If it wasn't for a psychic in the village, they wouldn't have dared to attack us."
Wang Zihao was quite a capable person. He had a general understanding of the situation in the nearby villages.
Seeing that it was almost time, and the bullets and guns had been loaded into the car, Gao Qi whispered, "Prepare dinner for ten people. Eat more game. Only this is rare. Someone will attack us tonight, so you just lead the way. Don't worry about anything else."
"Okay, I'll prepare first."
When Gao Qi was about to leave, Wang Zihao whispered behind him, "Captain Gao, are the ten people all psychics?"
Looking back at Wang Zihao, Wang Zihao said with an uneasy face, "If they're not superpowered people, ten of them won't be enough."
"Don't worry, it's safe."
After saying that with a smile, Gao Qi said to the people who were ready, "Let's go."
It took three hours to go from the No.7 Farm to Da Niu's house, but it was still early, so they had plenty of time to prepare.
"Brother Jun, do you know the situation of Da Niu's family?"
"You're talking about that?"
Gao Qi thought for a moment and said, "What's the relationship between his family members? Is this family reliable?"
He Jun sighed, "Hey, I thought you were going to ask something. Da Niu moved here from somewhere else. They used to live in the mountains, and moved out after Da Niu awakened as a psychic. Not long after that, Fei Ge found them when he was investigating the psychics outside the city. He felt that Da Niu was honest, so he let him go."
Gao Qi thought of something and said, "I know that Fei Ge is investigating the psychics outside the city. What do you mean by letting him go?"
He Jun raised his right hand and said in an indifferent tone, "I just want to see if there are any paranormals. If there are, I want to see if the paranormals are honest or not. If they aren't, I want to get rid of them as soon as possible so that they won't be easy to deal with."
"What kind of psychics is honest?"
"Like me."
He Jun was definitely a good candidate to be a henchman, but he was definitely not honest. Gao Qi thought for a moment and said, "Then tell me, what kind of psychics are considered dishonest?"
"It's the kind that is inconvenient to enter the city. There are some superpowered people who come from large wasteland settlements and have complicated relationships outside. There are also superpowered people who think that they have become superpowered and want to gather a group of people to dominate. These kinds of people are not honest."
"What will happen to those who are dishonest?"
He Jun smiled and said, "Those who are dishonest, of course, will be killed."
Those who could be completely controlled were honest. Those who could not be completely controlled and might be involved with some forces in the wasteland had to be dealt with to prevent them from becoming a threat to Zhaoxi City in the future.
Like Qin Laoda, he must have had a relationship with some big boss in Zhaoxi City. Otherwise, he would have been eliminated by Zhaoxi City long ago.
Zhaoxi City did not allow large wasteland settlements near the city, nor did it allow powerful psychics to appear. To put it bluntly, it was actually quite cruel.
Seeing that Gao Qi had fallen silent, He Jun could not help but say, "A Screwdriver, Fei Ge said that you will be in charge of the outskirts of the city. This … Can you talk to Fei Ge and let me help you in the future? I think the outskirts of the city are more interesting. The city is actually quite boring."
Huang Fei was going to be the branch chief of the Bounty Hunter Guild in the future. He would not be leaving the city as often as before. Huang Fei's mission was not as simple as searching for and killing mutants. In fact, in the eyes of the wastelanders, Huang Fei was an out-and-out executioner.
An executioner who only targeted psychics was still an executioner. There were quite a number of psychics in the wastelanders, and the ratio was even higher than in the city. However, these psychics were either recruited into the psychic group by Huang Fei, or killed by Huang Fei when he discovered them.
Without coming into contact with the wasteland, one would not know how cruel it was. Now, Gao Qi could only be glad that he was born in the city and not the wasteland.
"Brother Jun, why don't the wastelanders stay away from the city? Why do they have to live near the city?"
He Jun looked at Gao Qi, then smiled and said, "There are more mutated beasts farther away from the city, and fewer mutated beasts closer to the city. Actually, I think Da Niu is quite stupid. He could have just stayed away from Zhaoxi City, but he insisted on letting his child into the city and ended up dead. Serves him right!"
Gao Qi did not like He Jun. In fact, he disliked him more and more.
Also, it felt terrible to be forced to grow up quickly.
Now, Gao Qi knew what kind of authority Huang Fei had given him, but he also knew how bloody the authority Huang Fei had bestowed upon him was. He had once thought that the ability user group was only there to protect the city from the mutated humans, but now, Gao Qi realized that the ability user group was also a blade used to slaughter the Desolate's ability users.
When he was in school, Gao Qi did not know how dark the world was, so he was still young and inexperienced. That was why Huang Fei made him the deputy leader of the psychic group. It was to let Gao Qi understand what was going on in the wasteland as soon as possible.
When they arrived, He Jun pressed the horn twice, then whispered to Gao Qi, "Da Niu was lucky that Fei Ge needed someone. Otherwise, he would have been killed long ago."
Gao Qi did not say anything, because he did not know what to say.
After pressing the horn, a few minutes later, an old man appeared in Gao Qi's field of vision.
His clothes were pieced together. His face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were alert. He stood a few meters in front of Gao Qi's car.
He Jun said to Gao Qi, "This is Da Niu's father. It seems that you are quite brave, hehe."
Gao Qi opened the car door and walked straight to the old man, "Hello, how are you related to Da Niu?"
The old man was surprised because he was surprised that Gao Qi would say hello to him. After being stunned for a moment, he said in a low voice, "I am Da Niu's father. You can call me Lao Niu."
Gao Qi nodded and said in a low voice, "Uncle Niu, I am here to … Um, sorry, Da Niu is dead."
Lao Niu was still a little surprised. He raised his head and looked at Gao Qi, then slowly lowered his head and said, "I know. When he didn't come back that day, I knew he was dead."
Gao Qi said in a low voice, "Fei Ge asked me to bring Da Niu's child into the city. This is the condition that Fei Ge promised Da Niu. Fei Ge will definitely do what he said. But I am only here today because I am injured. Sorry for making you wait."
Lao Niu looked at Gao Qi in surprise again and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Gao Qi pointed at the truck behind him and said, "There are ten thousand bullets and ten guns in the truck. Fei Ge promised to give you one hundred thousand bullets, but one hundred thousand bullets will need to be loaded into a big truck. Our truck can't take it all. We will give you another batch later."
Lao Niu immediately said, "No, ten thousand bullets is enough. You don't have to give us more in the future."
This time it was Gao Qi's turn to be surprised. He Jun smiled and said, "Lao Niu, you are very sensible."
Gao Qi looked at He Jun. He was a little dissatisfied, but he couldn't scold He Jun, so he continued, "No, I said I will give you more. Fei Ge is a man of his words. Uncle Niu, I am here to bring Da Niu's child into the city. I will definitely give you more bullets next time."
Lao Niu lowered his head and said, "Thank you, but there is really no need. It is not good to have too many things. I am not worried about you, but I am worried about the other desolate people."
Gao Qi sighed and said, "Okay, bring Da Niu's wife and child here first, then move the bullets in. No, forget it, we will drive them to you. You lead the way."
Lao Niu looked at Gao Qi in surprise again and said, "You will drive them? Oh, okay, okay. "
Lao Niu slowly turned around and started to walk back. Gao Qi said to He Jun, "Let's drive and follow."
He Jun scratched his head and whispered, "A Screwdriver, you don't have to be so polite to the desolate people. They are a bunch of bastards. If you are polite to them, they will not think that you are a good person. Instead, they will think that you are easy to bully."
Gao Qi sighed and said, "I know, but after all, he is Da Niu's father. Brother Jun, without Da Niu, we would not have succeeded last time."
He Jun curled his lips and did not say anything. He just drove and followed Da Niu's father. After his car started, the pickup truck behind also followed.
When the car reached the entrance of the village, it could not enter. Gao Qi and He Jun got out of the car. Then, he had an idea and said, "Let's go to the house and have a look."
He Jun shrugged but did not say anything. He just seemed to be disapproving.
Lao Niu saw Gao Qi follow and was surprised again. So he stopped for a moment. When Gao Qi came closer, he whispered, "Please come with me. Raise your foot here, there is a landmine."
Gao Qi was slightly taken aback. He watched as the old cow raised its leg and stepped over a branch that seemed to have been casually thrown on the ground. When he carefully stepped over the branch, he realized that there was a white thread stuck to the ground behind the branch.
He Jun frowned and said, "Do you know who we are? Don't talk nonsense. Where is the landmine? Why didn't I find it? "
Lao Niu whispered, "Don't use iron, use stone."
"Nonsense, how can you detonate it without a minesweeper?"
Lao Niu stopped and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he whispered, "It's just black powder. There's no need for a minesweeper. Just use a match to start the fire. It's not difficult."
He Jun was still frowning. Gao Qi waved his hand and said, "Uncle Niu knows how to make landmines?"
Lao Niu nodded, then he pointed at the metal door and said, "Come in and sit."
Gao Qi followed Lao Niu into the courtyard. Then, he was surprised to find that the courtyard was very clean.
The house was a typical village building from before the Cataclysm. The glass on the windows was still intact. There was a well in the courtyard and two trees in the courtyard. One was a date tree, and the other … was a Chinese toona tree.
The season was just right. The tree was full of red dates. Gao Qi looked up at the tree full of dates and said, "This courtyard is not bad. The date tree is not bad either. The dates look good too."
"I'll get you some dates to eat."
He Jun immediately reached for a pole leaning against the wall, but Lao Niu suddenly shouted, "Don't move!"
He Jun looked at Lao Niu in surprise. Lao Niu pointed at the wooden pole with an embarrassed look and said, "There is a landmine below …"
