Chapter 319 Roshan and the Market
This organism is full of fat and rotten protein, white, yellow and green in some places. It likes to bask in the sun during the day, and likes to hide in sewers to absorb gutter oil on the Internet. It looks like a piece of super-large fat meat covered with mold.
"A funny guy."
Lu Yiming flew directly to the sky, and a white light flashed by. Roshan felt that he was offended. He wriggled violently, but did not notice that the enemy quickly returned to peace - it was not a big loss anyway.
The rune knife stabbed a fishy piece of meat and came roaring.
He drilled this small piece of meat into the glass bottle, "I got the meat mountain specimen."
"It's very simple."
Lu Yiming didn't dare to commit suicide, and once again offended the rotten oil that was even larger than the 50-story building and walked away from afar.
"It is said that this is just a small sub-body of Roushan... The sewers of the original city were completely occupied by the body of Roushan. Because it was too large, it could not come out at all. What we see now is only a small part."
Huang Fusheng pointed at the Roushan 600 meters away from a distance: "Some people speculate that all Roushan may be the same. If it gets angry, it should be very powerful."
"That's incredible..."
As the breeze blew, a pungent smell of hydrogen sulfide like rotten eggs came towards us. Zhong Peng and Liu Xuwei took a few steps back and couldn't help frowning.
Humans want to survive near the Roushan Mountain, but it's really...well, as long as they can survive.
"As long as people don't deliberately provoke it, they won't take the initiative. Of course, if the population is too large, the meat mountain will also be aggressive..."
Lu Yiming's eyebrows jumped. In fact, it was hard for him to imagine that such a large piece of meat mountain jumped up and attacked humans in the way Mount Tai pressed the top...
Huang Fusheng licked his lips and said, "The meat on it is the best fuel. Have you seen the purple colonies on it? If you are so hungry, it is said that these bacteria have special cooking methods, which are not toxic and taste good... Of course, I don't know how to cook this thing."
"After the Roushan moves a place, there will be a layer of smooth grease on the ground...fast enough, you will find that they can actually be used for cooking."
The translation expert Li Wei, who followed behind, looked strange, but he was still very loyal and translated these things.
Even Lu Yiming pinched his nose. The things in the waterway were really heavy... But not forcibly, who would be willing to do this?
Keep going forward.
In about two hours, several people came to this small village called "Qingshi".
You can see a bamboo pole more than 10 meters high from a distance, with a red flag floating in the wind at the top, which should be the symbol of the so-called "market".
The residents here are usually scattered in the wilderness, but now they just gather together temporarily and temporarily live in abandoned villages.
Anyway, the world is vast and sparsely populated, and abandoned houses are everywhere. In order to avoid long-term settlement, negative emotions are accumulated and strong complaints are found. The caravans here will change places for about half a month to a month.
Then a few scavengers gathered over and repeated cycles.
"The name of this caravan is 'Red Rose'. There are about 300 people in the team who have been operating together for a long time. The others are temporarily here to trade, which is a good scale. The most important thing is that the reputation is pretty good." Huang Fusheng picked up a cigarette, took a dry mouth, and his eyes flashed.
He is really full of energy now!
That idiom says this... the fox pretends to be a tiger's power?!
I, Huang Fusheng, are really proud this time!
Seeing the approaching of several people, a soldier guarding outside came over. He held an old rifle in his arms and asked, "Stop! Where are you?"
"Hey, man. Don't be nervous, it's me! Huang Fusheng! These people are my old brothers, who come from outside, and want to come over to see the adults here. Do you have any new products here? Let your brothers take advantage of it."
As a slippery man who has lived for 20 years and has a bit of a sense of danger, his local connections are quite good.
"Fresh goods? Lao Huang, you are still as lustful as ever. Where do you get fresh goods these days? There are not many little girls! Even if there are, you can't enjoy it." These soldiers laughed "hehe".
"If you want to bring people in, it's not a big problem. The old rules are: two cigarettes or two pieces of potatoes, fuel, or anything else! Only during the day today, you have to leave at night. There can't be more people here."

"Also, I'm optimistic about your buddy, don't cause trouble here!"
"Okay."
Huang Fusheng quickly paid the toll and brought Lu Yiming and his party in. He could still afford the ticket fee.
"This market is not large in scale. After all, the suburbs near the city are 20 kilometers in radius, and the total total is only two or three thousand."
"Only two or three thousand?"
"yes……"
Lu Yiming sighed in his heart, this is a super-large coastal city. The original population may have reached 20 to 30 million, but now, it is only 20,000 or 30,000, and the chance of survival is less than one in ten thousand!
If calculated based on the world's six billion people, it will only be a mere 600,000 people, and this is still a global scope...
"Because the population in an area is sparse, the large caravans in the market often walk around in various areas and go around in various places. There is also a territory division between grievances. They master the distribution of some territorial areas and often shuttle at edges."
"Also, this caravan also has transportation, which can transport more goods."
"In this doomsday state, cars that can still drive are extremely valuable high-end wealth. As long as you don't encounter extremely powerful grudges, you will not be in danger of life."
"But usually, everyone uses human-powered tricycles to transport goods."
The main roads here still exist, and it is easy to ride fifty or sixty kilometers a day. If you are faster, you might be able to ride seventy or eighty kilometers.
"How did you know the market will come here?"
Huang Fusheng pointed to the sky: "You can hear the radio through the radio. In fact, there are only a few places. Is there a valley floor? Although the 'resentment' is very powerful, they do not know how to use human technology, nor do they know that we will gather in fixed places...hehe."
"After the transaction is completed, we will choose to leave. Wait for the emotions here to slowly dissipate. This way we will not seduce too much resentment."
“It makes sense.”
"There is no conflict here, no fighting or stealing is allowed... Because conflicts arise, there will be a lot of negative emotions and are easily sensed by complaints. Making trouble here will become the target of public criticism. At the least, you will be driven out, and at the worst, you will be killed to warn the monkey. This is a long-term unspoken rule."
Huang Fusheng said this and looked at them carefully.
These humans from parallel worlds are really too powerful. The reinforced suits on their bodies are almost invulnerable, and even if the bullets are fired, they will not leave any marks.
It is not impossible for these people to destroy this market.
Lu Yiming nodded slightly, "Don't worry, we are here to find cooperation and will not make trouble here rashly. Don't worry."
The emergence of the market gives surrounding humans a place to trade, which is a necessary link for survival. If people do not trade, then it is no different from wild animals.
Everyone follows the unspoken rules that have been slowly formed over the past 20 years.
I saw many strange trading sessions along the way.
For example, the most common food for humans here: an ugly-looking plant root, which looks a bit like sweet potatoes, with some strange black spots on its surface. The smallest is only the size of a walnut, while the largest is as big as a basketball.
"A food that comes from potatoes has a mutated taste, it is very bitter. It is nourished by wood ash and rain, and can barely fill your stomach... If you remove the black spots, you will not be poisonous." Huang Fusheng explained, "Generally, these things are planted on the roof and do not come into contact with the ground."
Even if you eat instant noodles, compared to these bitter melon-like potatoes, it is a life like a god.
"These mushrooms grow from rotten trees and can be eaten. The taste is pretty good. They are not poisonous."
But eating mushrooms for a long time can't fill your stomach. This thing actually has no energy.
"Mutual rat jerky meat may be toxic in a small amount. But as long as you don't eat too much, the problem is not big." Eating too much may cause diarrhea."
"A kind of animal meat called Mo is mutated from chickens. They can eat some food that humans cannot eat. They often bite people wildly, flap their wings and fly, making it difficult to raise... It is considered a relatively high-end food."
Skinny men and women are everywhere. Because the legendary "waste" pollutes most of the land, even the yield of mutant potatoes is not very high.
There are no beggars or refugees in the market, because the ticket fee for the market requires 2 cigarettes, which is not something that refugees can afford.
In this world, humans have very strong tolerance.
Even if life is not satisfactory, there are still not many complaints or worries, and they all have a calm expression.
Because once negative emotions break out, the chances of being complained will increase significantly. They all know that a calm face and a stable mentality are the best way to survive.
People with unstable mentality have long been eliminated by natural choice in the past 20 years.
Lu Yiming sighed in his heart: "It's a strong world...it has evolved into completely different ways of living."
The soldiers in uniform stood in groups of three, sucking cigarettes and staring blankly with guns in their arms, looking like robots.
There are also women who are very little-dressed on the roadside, as well as children born from unexpected pregnancy, who are placed on shelves and sold like goods.
There are also some women who are glaring at the strong Lu Yiming.
In this era, it is difficult for adults to survive. Children are definitely a burden. If parents do not have enough ability to raise them, boys will be basically out of salvation and will be dealt with in some unknown corners, or simply become a kind of food, literally.
