The people here allowed us to land on the island.

Of course, I know the conditions for landing on the island, which is also one of their requirements: to assist them. These simple four words, but I think very complicated, assist them? Assist with what? Just help them hunt those islands

Predators? Or do you want me to go fishing? God, according to my idea, I just hope these people can provide us with the resources on the island, especially food.

"What do you know?" the person in charge of managing the village here asked me. It was he who let me and Lao Lan go and invited us to visit this lighthouse island. Before leaving the village, he told me that his name was Hunter, but I

His accent doesn't sound like someone from a southern state. As for his appearance, I have to be honest, he looks just like those rigid newspaper workers. Except for the pair of erudite glasses, this look and that

There is no difference between a group of office workers.

"Let me think about it." I pretended to be thinking, but in fact I was observing the actions of the villagers here. It can't be helped, we are actually uninvited guests to some villagers. Not many people will welcome me in the damn south.

people, not to mention that the damn southerners attacked their village not long ago.

"Killing people, setting fires, destroying things like that," I answered.

"That's really in line with the evaluation of you southerners..." he said expressionlessly.

"Why were you attacked by those plundering bandits for no reason? I don't think the comprehensive resources on this island are greater than those in Nancheng District." I changed the topic and tried to understand the cause of the conflict here. Let me say,

If someone is eyeing this island, it's probably for the seafood.

However, killing a few fish just for a few fish is really ridiculous.

"Because there are not only resources on our island, but those people came to the island not just to grab food." The color on his face began to become abnormal, like a calm pool stirring up a spring. For a moment, I thought he

Will get angry.

"That is?" I suppressed what I wanted to call out in my heart, because saying it in front of these people would probably kill me.

"They came here to fight for territory." He replied. "These people know that there is not much living space left for them in Nancheng District. Before they can't cross the military blockade in Beicheng District, their remaining priority choices are

It’s here.”

"That shouldn't be the case. I've never heard of anyone trying to seize land on the island." I said.

I think he is lying.

"Did you know? This island is more than two thousand meters long, enough to accommodate three small towns." He began to be wary of me, and his words became slower because of the coldness of his tone.

"So the bandits are still on the island?" I began to wonder.

"That's right!"

I can't do this. If we are looking for these predators on such a large island, then I would rather go fishing or help the villagers set up fishing nets. But I think the villagers would rather we do the work ahead and clean up the island.

Bandits are only beneficial to them but not harmful. There is no shortage of manpower for fishing, and the same goes for fishing for kelp.

"You'd better take this job, otherwise you'll have to pay for three meals a day." He said to me so euphemistically. This is what worries me even more: he wants me to accept this murder commission, otherwise I will

We have to go camping. To put it bluntly, we are told to get out. "Mr. Han, do you have any cash with you? Yes?"

I glanced at the glances of the surrounding villagers and replied, "I have no choice, Hunter. And the seafood here is not too cheap."

When he heard this, the wrinkles between his brows seemed to relax a little. "You are really good at joking. Where did you hear that?"

"Seafood fish are very expensive." I replied immediately, and at the same time I was very pleased that I diverted his topic. At least now, it seems that he is not very hostile to me.

"Although you took over this dirty job, those bandits are not easy to deal with." He brought the topic back. At least the people here regard the bandits as a thorn in their side. As long as those people still stay on the island, sooner or later they will become a hidden danger.

"Just tell us where they are hiding," I said.

Next, I continued to visit the scenery on the island, such as the forge in the village, fish drying grounds and defense facilities. To be honest, there are not many facilities in these places at all. I can even see Things left over from centuries. Even the fortifications on the shore are just walls made of wood and bamboo boards, which cannot stop bullets or storms at sea. Look at the weapons they usually use, my God. , in this era, there are really not many people who still use wooden bows and arrows and cold weapons.

Out of kindness to us, the people in the village gave me some weapons. Of course, these weapons must serve them. I know this is ridiculous, but there are really no weapons that can be used here. Compared with those weapons, I have to work hard to string the bow and aim it well before shooting. I would rather believe in luck and the knife in my hand.

What's more, my assault ax was severely damaged. The edge was full of blunt chips and curled edges. I couldn't expect the ax to cut anything. So, I had no choice but to throw it away.

"How did you convince these rigid villagers to let us go to the island?"

I looked at Wei Lao who was holding a fishing rod, and for a moment I didn’t know how to explain it.

"Well, they just put forward a condition. It's just what everyone wants." I answered.

Hearing this, he slowly picked up his water bottle and started filling his mouth with water. "What are the conditions?" Wei Lao asked me pretending not to care.

"They want us to help them hunt down the predators on the island, that is, the Gao family."

"Then go ahead. This won't be a difficult problem for you and Lao Lan." After Wei Lao finished speaking, he poured another sip into his mouth. As far as I can see, ordinary mineral water is not so tasty.

"Me? I'm going to fight Lao Lan again? Do you really plan to retire here and fish and then come and collect the corpses for me?" I accused Wei Lao of being perfunctory. Every time we fought, he was used to hiding at the end, and he didn't even fight for a few times. Secondary front line.

"Keep your voice down, you're scaring away all my fish."

I put my hands on my hips and walked back and forth on the grass-covered ground. Looking at Wei Lao's relaxed look, I really couldn't get angry or laugh. After a long time, he looked back at me and said with a calm expression. He looked at me and said, "Do you know why I want you to do these dangerous jobs?"

"Why?" I said, still looking at him dissatisfied.

"Then do you know why I haven't caught a fish after fishing for so long?"

"How would I know? Could it be that I know what the fish here are thinking?" I said, and I stopped pacing impatiently.

"Well, fish die for bait. The reason why I fish..."

"Get to the point!" I kicked a stone under his feet. No one wanted to hear his nonsense at this time.

He smiled, put down the fishing rod in his hand, and let out a long sigh. Then he turned around and explained to me face to face: "That's because I don't have any bait, man."

"What?" I felt very unbelievable after hearing this. If a person is really idle, what kind of idleness will he be like? Now Wei Lao's behavior is really puzzling. If he wants to eat fish, it is completely

You can find a place with still water or slow flowing water, drop a grenade into the water, and then harvest it. But I can't understand the operation of the wisher taking the bait.

"Are you serious?" I said.

"If we want to survive the storm safely, we must get the food resources and fuel on this island. And if we want these things, we must use bait so as not to return empty-handed." Wei Lao picked up the food again.

While holding his kettle, he asked me, "Do you understand?"

"I'll just kill them. There are no rules of engagement here anyway. I'm sure I can deal with enemies who are alone or in groups."

When Wei Lao heard this, he took another sip. But he seemed to have drank all the water in the kettle. Then he took out a small crossbow and some carbon fiber crossbow arrows from his bag. "What are you going to do?

How to kill? With a gun? Or with that rusty knife?" he asked me.

"I don't know. Bullets are consumables on this island. I don't have many bullets left." I answered honestly. If the other party's robbers are not easy to deal with, what else can be used besides bullets?

"Take this, you won't want to approach those people on this island." He handed the crossbow to me, and I caught it with one hand. "Keep it secret and pay attention to the actions of the villagers. I think they are

They are taking advantage of you. Don’t cause trouble with them,” he reminded.

I nodded, "By the way," and just as I turned to leave, I asked out of curiosity: "What on earth did you drink just now?"

"Grape juice, I grabbed it from the store earlier." After he finished speaking, he turned around and went fishing again.

Before getting ready to set off, Lao Lan and I prepared weapons and assigned tasks. Since we are taking the initiative this time, we are likely to encounter a lot of trouble. In the relatively narrow alleys of the city, we dealt with the group of

The enemy often relies on the firepower of submachine guns, which makes the battle easier and can quickly handle the battlefield situation. But this is not the streets of Nancheng District, nor the alleys of Dongcheng District. Fighting in an open field, keep

Concealment is the key to winning the battle.

Therefore, Lao Lan and I only carried crossbows and knives, leaving the submachine guns in the care of Wei Lao and the others. For safety reasons, I will still carry a pistol and some pistol bullets, but not a lot. Wait until tonight is over,

Lao Lan and I will set off before dawn. Before that, I feel it is necessary to take a bath and have a good midnight snack before going to bed.

So I carried the wooden bathtub and went to the bathhouse in the village alone. At this time, no one was bathing and rubbing their backs in it. Out of curiosity, I walked around a few times, maybe

Since it was midnight, the people in the village no longer cared much about me.

I stopped next to a building with a chimney because it smelled like gasoline and asphalt. When I carefully opened the door and entered, I discovered the little secret of this island:
Chapter completed!
