"Then … how much will you pay me per day?" Yang Tianzhao wanted to keep calm, but the excitement and expectation in his eyes had betrayed him.
They were really too poor.
Dozens of teenagers and children could only rely on desperately mining every day to trade with other forces for a pitiful amount of resources.
It could be said that they spent every day in hunger.
If they could find other ways to make money, of course, he would be very excited.
"First, I'll pay you in advance for five days — a Type 54 pistol, 80 pistol bullets and a bag of rice. As for other rewards, we'll talk about it five days later," Jiang Liushi said.
Now, Shi Ying Squad still had plenty of guns.
They had obtained a lot of guns and ammunition from Blood Wolf, Yang Feng and other forces.
Especially the Type 54 pistol, because the team already had several of them, so the Shi Ying Squad did not need this kind of gun.
In addition, Xiang Xuehai had specially provided them with a batch of food, so the MCV's storage space was full of food resources.
As for things like rice, it was dispensable for Jiang Liushi, so it was just right for him to trade.
He also knew what this group of youngsters in the mining area lacked the most.
"Type 54 pistol?"
Yang Tianzhao almost drooled from the corner of his mouth.
In a world full of zombies, guns were extremely precious.
If ordinary people had guns, they would have the capital to fight against zombies and even paranormals.
Although the Type 54 pistol was not as powerful as a rifle, at least it was much stronger than their current Type 64 pistol.
It could make up for the lack of firepower in the mining area.
If they wanted to get guns, they usually had to exchange mutant meat.
Now they could get a Type 54 pistol by following Xiang Xuehai for five days. Yang Tianzhao felt that it was simply a pie falling from the sky.
Moreover, there was also a bag of rice.
The preciousness of food was beyond doubt in today's world.
"Well, I agree to your employment." Yang Tianzhao hesitated a little and then nodded.
Although it was more dangerous to enter Pan Zhu City, it was absolutely worthwhile compared to the rewards Jiang Liushi would give.
"But I can't be hired by you for too long. If I'm not here, it will be a little troublesome," Yang Tianzhao added.
"Are you being targeted?" Jiang Liushi understood and asked.
There were many mines here, so it was a piece of fat meat. Among the group of young miners, only Yang Tianzhao was a paranormal.
It was not surprising that such a team was being targeted.
"It is indeed a little troublesome. But I can handle it … These mining children, in addition to me and a few other teenagers, were thrown here by the major forces of Pan Zhu City. They are too young and useless in other forces, so they were thrown here to mine. They are all poor children. They are like my brothers, so I can't leave them for too long. I have to take care of them! "Yang Tianzhao said vaguely.
"How many time bombs and explosives do you want to exchange for the mutant meat and food?"
Yang Tianzhao raised his head, and his mood became a lot more spirited.
Since the other party was proposing a trade, they must be sincere.
Otherwise, with Jiang Liushi's strength, if Jiang Liushi threatened him with violence, he would not dare to refuse.
"One bag of explosives, five pounds of mutant meat, and a bag of rice. A simple time bomb, 15 pounds of mutant meat, and a bag of rice, "Jiang Liushi said lightly.
"I will only wait for one or two days," Jiang Liushi added.
Jiang Liushi had always been cautious.
The previous information he had obtained proved that Pan Zhu City's armed forces were far more complex than those in northern Jiangsu.
Therefore, he must enhance some of his own attack methods and improve the team's combat power.
Explosives and time bombs were one of the powerful weapons he had thought of after the battle with the mutant pufferfish in Wu Shui County.
Currently, he had to rely on his MCV, so some battles were certainly inconvenient.
He needed some powerful weapons that were easy to carry, and they could be equipped with other members of the team.
For example, Zhang Hai could throw the explosives, and it would not be a problem for him to throw them a thousand meters.
When dealing with some big forces, Sun Kun, who had the ability to climb in any environment, could install the simple time bomb. It would definitely have an unexpected effect.
When he saw Yang Tianzhao, Jiang Liushi knew that he could obtain the two things he had envisioned.
"Alright, it's a deal. I'll try to make as many things as I can within these two days!" Yang Tianzhao smiled happily and waved his fist.
Mutant meat and rice were the things they lacked the most.
As for what Jiang Liushi wanted, in addition to the simple time bomb, Yang Tian had made several explosive packs, which were often used to blow up the mine.
There were a lot of reserves in the nearby mines, and there were also nitrate and sulfur mines nearby. So it was very easy for him to configure explosives.
As for the simple time bomb, it was not a big problem for him. He just needed some time to find the materials.
After talking for a quarter of an hour, Yang Tianzhao agreed to all of Jiang Liushi's conditions.
"Er Fan, Xiao Wen, did you hear that? Hurry up and bring a group of people to move all the rare metals that brother Jiang wants to his car. Then bring that bag of rice back! Don't forget, there is also the Type 54 pistol! "
Yang Tianzhao was very happy, and he patted the shoulder of the boy named Er Fan.
The two youths who followed Yang Tianzhao in were still trembling with fear a moment ago. Now that they heard the contents of the deal between Yang Tianzhao and these foreign robbers, they felt like they were dreaming.
Just a moment ago, they were like fish on the chopping board, but now they suddenly turned around?
The ups and downs were really … exciting!
After Er Fan and Xiao Wen hurriedly ran out, Jiang Liushi heard a sudden burst of cheers in the mine outside.
The corner of Jiang Liushi's mouth raised a trace of smile. Those miners were too easy to satisfy.
After the young miner in the mine heard about the deal from Er Fan and Xiao Wen, who ran out excitedly, the depressed atmosphere was immediately swept away.
The way they looked at Zhang Hai had also changed from vigilance and hostility to hunger and thirst, as if they were looking at a delicious cake or a rich man.
The next moment, a group of young miners took the initiative to carry out the rare metals and other things that Jiang Liushi needed.
A rumbling sound came from the mine.
Jiang Liushi and the others also got on the mining car and went out.
Since they had discussed the conditions with Yang Tianzhao, there was no need for them to stay in the mine.
He just needed to wait quietly.
He was sure that the young miners would not dare to play any tricks.
Jiang Liushi's strength was obvious, and they also knew the lair of that group of young miners. If they had any other thoughts, they would be courting death.
After a group of young miners happily carried the rare metals to the minibus, Jiang Liushi drove the minibus back about 100 meters and drove into an abandoned and remote miner's cave next to the road.
After all, Yang Tianzhao had said that there would be outsiders coming to trade in the mine.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better to be careful.
Night fell, and the minibus was quiet.
Jiang Zhuying was still sleeping, and the flickering current on her body had subsided.
Jiang Liushi checked his sister's condition, and then he went to the driver's seat to rest.
Just as he was closing his eyes, Ran Xiyu's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Brother Jiang, something happened in the mine."
Jiang Liushi frowned, and he turned around in the dark and saw Ran Xiyu sitting up.
She looked very dignified, and she was trying to investigate the situation in the mine.
"There are more than a dozen people, and two of them are paranormals … It seems that they are fighting!"
Through Ran Xiyu's shared spiritual vision, Jiang Liushi saw two unusually bright red spots entangled with each other.
There was also a weak red dot that suddenly disappeared.
The red spot was mental energy, and once it completely disappeared, it could only mean one thing — death!
'Bang, bang, bang! '
At that time, a series of gunshots and screams sounded in the night.
All of a sudden, Zhang Hai, Sun Kun and Ling, who were sleeping, opened their eyes.
"Ling, Zhang Hai, Sun Kun, come with me. The others stay here. Ran Xiyu, you keep investigating."
Jiang Liushi said, and then he put the Type 54 pistol on his waist and took a Type 95 automatic rifle in his hand.
In the rugged area, the sniper rifle's field of vision was not as good as the Type 95 automatic rifle's.
As soon as he jumped out of the minibus, Ling was the first to pass by him.
In the dark, Ling's graceful figure was like a cheetah, incomparably agile and silent.
Zhang Hai and Sun Kun both took shotguns and followed Jiang Liushi.
"Brother Jiang, they have all rushed into the mine!"
As soon as they got close to the mine, Ran Xiyu's voice sounded in Jiang Liushi's mind.
Jiang Liushi's heart skipped a beat. [Rushed into the mine?] It was troublesome.
In that kind of cramped environment, the risk factor would increase.
Walking in front of the mine, Jiang Liushi saw Ling standing at the entrance of the mine.
"Captain, a bald adult died. His head was pierced by a fork-like metal sharp object. There are a lot of bloodstains and footprints in other places, so there should be a lot of people here. "Ling looked at the body on the ground and said calmly.
Obviously, there had been sporadic fierce battles. An adult's head was badly mutilated, and there was a large pool of blood at the entrance of the mine.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
"Zhang Hai, Sun Kun, you guard the entrance. I will go with Ling! "
Looking at the dark mine, Jiang Liushi instantly made a decision.
In such an environment, visibility was low.
Ling had awakened a cat-like bloodline, so she could see things in the dark as in the daytime. She was good at assassination and lurking.
Her brain domain had evolved, so she could also see in the dark and react quickly.
In contrast, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun's visibility was low at night, so it would be more dangerous.
Through Ran Xiyu's spiritual vision sharing, Jiang Liushi could judge that two paranormals had entered the mine.
One of them must be Yang Tianzhao.
The sharp wound on the adult's head must have been caused by Yang Tianzhao.
Yang Tianzhao's ability seemed to be some kind of metal sharp object. At noon, Jiang Liushi had vaguely seen Yang Tianzhao stabbing the puppet's thigh.
As for the other paranormal, Jiang Liushi believed that he and Ling could deal with it.
He had just made a deal with Yang Tianzhao, so he didn't want Yang Tianzhao to die like that.
Compared with many adult survivors with ulterior motives, Jiang Liushi preferred to cooperate with a simple young survivor like Yang Tianzhao.
After giving instructions, Jiang Liushi and Ling didn't take the mining car. Instead, they tiptoed along the track toward the mine.
After all, the mining car was too noisy, and entering it would cause unnecessary danger.
At the end of the track, in the mine pit, more than a dozen people holding machetes and rifles were following a burly man, holding their breath and moving forward slowly.
It was dark inside the mine.
The solar light had been turned off.
"Little bastard, cry for me!"
In the darkness, a broken gong voice fiercely shouted.
The man who spoke had thick hair all over his body, each of them like steel needles.
His hands had turned into a pair of sharp claws, and his thick flippers were firmly grasping the ground. His ears were like those of a wolf, and his two eyes were shining in the dark.
Although it was dim inside, he could see everything clearly.
In his fan-like palm, he was grabbing two arms with all his strength. They belonged to two eleven or twelve year old youths who still had the innocence of a child.
Those teenagers were already injured, and the flesh on their thighs had been exposed.
Ruan Dingfa's sharp claws were bent, and the blade-like claws had pierced one of the teenagers' arms. Suddenly, blood flowed.
The teenager groaned, but he gritted his teeth and did not cry out. His face was pale because of excessive blood loss, but he was very tough.
"Brother Tianzhao, don't come out! They have guns in their hands!" The teenager, whose arm was stabbed, suddenly shouted.
His voice echoed in the long and densely packed tunnel.
"Good, tough bones!" Hearing the teenager's shout, the shape-shifter grinned. He took a gun from one of his subordinates and pointed it at the teenager's head.
"Let's see if your bones or bullets are harder!"
Just as he was about to shoot, a figure suddenly flashed from the side of the mine, and a large amount of metal powder was thrown out.
The powder was very pungent, and it was sprinkled on everyone.
The air was also filled with the strong smell of metal debris.
"Who is it?" Caught off guard, the shape-shifter shouted, "Quick, turn on the hat light!"
Suddenly, the two big men behind him wore mining lamp hats, and two beams of light shone on the shape-shifter's body.
The dark mine tunnel was also a lot brighter.
Under the illumination of the hat light, the shape-shifter could see clearly that the group of people were covered in silver-gray metal powder. He had the most, and his hair was all silver-gray.
"Ruan Dingfa, shoot. I sprinkled magnesium powder. Hmph, you were an old miner in these state-owned mines before the apocalypse. You should know that magnesium powder can easily explode, right? This is the bottom of the mine, and you know what will happen if there is a big explosion. "
At this time, Yang Tianzhao slowly walked out of the mine, gritting his teeth.
"Magnesium powder? Do you think I'm a three-year-old? Magnesium powder is so easy to explode. Aren't you afraid that your bastards will die with you? " Ruan Dingfa's face was ferocious, but his finger on the trigger stopped, and there was a trace of hesitation under his eyes.
He did not dare to joke with his life.
"I have nothing to lose!" Yang Tianzhao's face was livid, and he said word by word.
In the mines behind him, some teenagers and children poked their heads out and looked at Yang Tianzhao worriedly.
Like the shape-shifter, Yang Tianzhao's pupils flashed a strange green light. Apparently, he also had night vision. Spikes like steel needles appeared all over his body.
"Ruan Dingfa, I give Wang Xifu so many iron mines every month. Isn't it enough? Do you want to kill us? "Yang Tianzhao said with hatred.
Ruan Dingfa grinned.
"The situation is different. In the past, Wang Xifu only wanted ores. Now, he not only wants ores, but also people he can trust. You should know that the Battle Crazed Alliance is now fighting with the Falling Star Society. This time, they are fighting fiercely. I'm afraid they won't be able to win. And we found out that you secretly traded with the Falling Star Society. If we don't offend both sides, we can't do that. "Ruan Dingfa grinned.
He licked his tongue again.
"In addition, you little bastard drove me out of the mine. I've always wanted to take revenge for this!"
As soon as his voice fell, he threw the two teenagers in his hands toward Yang Tianzhao.
Behind them was hard ore. If the two teenagers fell, with Ruan Dingfa's strong strength, they would definitely be smashed into a pile of flesh and blood.
Yang Tianzhao snorted. He had to put away the metal needles on his hands and catch the two teenagers.
Just at this moment, Ruan Dingfa's ten fingers, which had grown a pair of long and sharp bone blades, ruthlessly tore at his neck.
"I can kill you without shooting!" Ruan Dingfa grinned.
Yang Tianzhao had just thrown the two teenagers aside and could only hurriedly parry.
In an instant, he only felt a great force rushing toward him. The metal needles on his arms that were blocking the bone blades were unexpectedly broken.
His whole body was also hit by this great force and staggered.
"Hey, you little bastard, you can't do it now? Weren't you very arrogant before? Without enough mutant meat to eat, your strength has declined. Isn't it painful? "Ruan Dingfa grinned and rushed toward Yang Tianzhao again. The bone blades in his hands were still heavily chopping toward Yang Tianzhao.
Yang Tianzhao's heart sank. He and Ruan Dingfa used to work in the state-owned mine.
After doomsday, a large number of miners turned into zombies. Only he and Ruan Dingfa evolved into paranormals.
However, Ruan Dingfa was not a good person. He relied on his strength to enslave the other surviving miners. As a result, Yang Tianzhao and a group of people launched an attack and drove him away.
In the past, Yang Tianzhao's ability could absolutely suppress Ruan Dingfa.
However, he had been lacking mutant meat to eat, so his ability had been greatly weakened.
At this moment, an elegant figure suddenly fell from the top of Ruan Dingfa's head.
The gleaming dagger mercilessly chopped toward Ruan Dingfa's neck.
"Who?" Ruan Dingfa was taken aback. The bone blades in his hands instantly scattered more than a dozen times.
Dang dang dang! After a series of clashing sounds, he unexpectedly couldn't get rid of the elegant figure in front of him.
Standing in front of him was a cat-eared loli girl. The dagger in her hands danced like rain. Her footsteps were light and elegant like a ghost.
One moment she appeared on his left, and the next moment she jumped above his head.
Her explosive power, agility, reaction, and knife skills were incomparably amazing.
Ruan Dingfa couldn't get rid of her for a while.
He roared, and the bones in his body made popping sounds. He was about to exert his strength.
The cat-eared loli girl in front of him suddenly jumped behind him. Her elegant figure appeared in front of the two big men holding rifles.
Shua shua shua! Two sharp cold lights cut off the hands of the two big men. They screamed again and again.
The long spear in the hands of the cat-eared loli girl. Then she turned around and looked at Ruan Dingfa indifferently.
At that moment, footsteps came from behind Ruan Dingfa and the others.
Jiang Liushi walked out with a Type 95 submachine gun in his hand, and the black muzzle was aimed at Ruan Dingfa.
"You … who are you? This … this place is full of magnesium powder. If you shoot, it will cause a big explosion. You and I will die! "Ruan Dingfa's face turned pale.
He recognized the gun in Jiang Liushi's hand. It was a Type 95 automatic rifle.
The gun's power was very strong. At such a close distance, it was more than enough to kill him.
"Big explosion?" Jiang Liushi sneered, and the Type 95 automatic rifle in his hand burst into flames.
On Ruan Dingfa's huge beast body, a large hole was blasted in his chest. He flew a few meters away and fell heavily on the wall of the mine. He died with his eyes wide open.
He didn't expect that Jiang Liushi would really dare to shoot.
At that moment, Yang Tianzhao also roared and rushed toward the group of big men.
Facing Zero and Yang Tianzhao, the two paranormals, the rest of the survivors without guns were strong, but they were just strong lambs.
After a while, more than a dozen bloody corpses were lying in the mine.
Blood soaked the ground, making it soft.
"Brother Jiang, thank you!" Yang Tianzhao was covered with blood, and he was exhausted. He stood in front of Jiang Liushi, and his eyes were full of gratitude.
If Jiang Liushi hadn't arrived in time, they would have been finished.
The other young miners looked at Jiang Liushi with gratitude and awe.
"It's nothing. I didn't get the explosives and simple time bombs I wanted. I won't let you die, "Jiang Liushi said lightly.
"Uh …" Yang Tianzhao was speechless.
"Brother Jiang, how do you know that I didn't sprinkle magnesium powder?" Yang Tianzhao could not help but ask.
"First, magnesium powder is so easy to explode. It's very sultry here, and a little movement will cause sparks, which will cause a big explosion. Second, you value the lives of your brothers very much, so you won't let them die together. "Jiang Liushi raised two fingers.
Yang Tianzhao was speechless, and he looked at Jiang Liushi with a different kind of emotion.
"But brother Jiang, you are outsiders. Ruan Dingfa is one of the eight district leaders of the Battle Union, and he is Wang Xifu's subordinate. If he's dead, Wang Xifu will definitely send people to investigate the mine. We're in big trouble, "Yang Tianzhao said worriedly.
After experiencing a life-and-death battle, he actually had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with Jiang Liushi, and he was worried about the safety of Jiang Liushi and others.
"If Wang Xifu wants to find trouble, just kill him. Anyway, we just came to Pan Zhu City to do something, and we will leave after that, "Jiang Liushi said calmly, as if he was describing a trivial matter.
