The site of the classic car is located in the north of Lunni Pond, close to the freight railway and on the edge of the wilderness.
Many days later, this morning, before it was fully light, Gu He followed Lorna, and Pandora set off from Kabukicho to the mud pond. Lorna drove her heavy-duty off-road vehicle, and he sat in the passenger seat.
They went shopping yesterday and although they didn't find any knives or treasures, they still had a good time.
Perhaps because of this, my personality integrity has increased a lot.
Before setting off, at Gu He's strong request, they made some status checks.
His personality integrity is 92%, Lorna's is 80%, and Pandora's is 75%.
And his holy water energy is 80%, which is a big success. Although those delicious drinks are not as high as the first time I drank them, there is still holy water, which can add up little by little.
"80% personality integrity?" Lorna was a little unbelievable, "What the hell? I'm really not used to it."
She didn't know how long it had been since she had reached 80%, but she felt like she was sick.
Along the way, Gu He and Lorna were basically talking, while Pandora remained silent.
"By the way, Pandora, have you seen Lindsay recently?" Gu He asked.
"I didn't see him." Pandora said, "I'm not familiar with him."
After entering the mud pond, the sky became cloudy. Among the endless garbage piles, huge factory chimneys were spraying smoke and miasma into the sky. In the words of the mud guy, they were destroying the Flowing Light City.
No one wants to go deep into the hinterland of the muddy pond, as they may never get out of the ocean of garbage.
The route Lorna took was not a straight one. There was no good road in the muddy pond. Sometimes it was a road one day and a pile of garbage the next. It was all decided by the gang members.
She passed through the Walled City, drove to the freight railway, and then returned to the territory of classic cars.
Fortunately, the key program segment is buried in such a place. If it were in the central area of the mud pond, it would not be available in a million years.
"The scavenger profession is the special skill of the mud man." Lorna said while driving. "They can also find good stuff from all kinds of things, especially old and broken things." She was telling Gu He,
Pandora didn't understand the meaning.
"What side door to the constellation is this?"
"I don't know, I'm an alchemist. If you have any questions for Pandora, don't ask me."
Pandora said calmly: "I haven't been taught this in the basement, but I know a little bit. The Scavenger, also known as the Garbage Stranger, created the Scavenger profession. He has the ability to hunt for treasures, make things, and turn waste into treasures."
"Scavengers say that everything can be used." Pandora looked at the endless mountains of garbage outside the car window. "According to legend, scavengers can turn a piece of garbage into strange objects and discover the uniqueness of each object."
Lorna turned her head and looked at Gu He, who was also thinking that her activated magic objects really had something in common...
"Scavengers." Lorna smiled, "I didn't believe it before, but now I do."
An unbearable stench spread from the air, and they were about to enter the territory of the classic car. Some figures sitting or standing appeared on the surrounding garbage mountains. They were young people with tattered clothes, weird hairstyles, and tattoos.
Lorna honked the car horn and shouted outside the car: "Let's come and negotiate a deal on a classic car."
Before that, Pandora had already found a middleman in the city to greet the classic car.
There are no reliable middlemen in Langnitang, but there has always been some business and material exchange between Classic Cars and the Walled City.
"That's you." A garbage man's voice came down from the garbage mountain, "Go in."
The off-road vehicle continued to drive, and soon it approached a cleared residential area. There were streets, shacks, and garbage truck workshops. People were coming and going everywhere, and the noise was constant. It was more lively than Black Dog Street.
Gu He saw rows of garbage trucks parked in the open space, with various body shells placed behind them.
Some are painted with car paint, while others are just rusty scraps of metal.
"Those are all for sale." Lorna said, "Many people and cars from the garbage tribe walked out from here."
Gu He remembered that when he was in the wilderness, he had indeed seen many vehicles of this style, and some were even worse.
"Gasboin is the largest car manufacturer in Flowing Light City, and here is the largest garbage truck manufacturer in Lannitan." Pandora said, "It has given a lot of people a bite to eat."
Lorna drove the SUV all the way to the edge of the street and stopped when it could go no further.
The three of them got out of the car without bringing any prosthetic devices or weapons, otherwise there would be no chance to talk.
Gu He paid attention to his surroundings. Many eyes were looking at him, from the side of the dilapidated houses and from above the towering garbage dumps.
Here, every well-dressed visitor will receive this kind of attention.
Although he was only dressed in jeans, Lorna black leather pants, and Pandora striped clothes.
Those trash guys looked at Lorna walking by, and their eyes widened. It was not that there were no women in the muddy pond, there were many women, but there were no women like that. She was young, beautiful, and had a hot figure. Just looking at her made her want to pounce on her.
Some people's eyes widened when they saw Gu He walking by. They liked men.
"Oh my god, it feels weird..." Gu He held the big cup in his hand and followed Lorna a little closer.
"It's pretty good here." Lorna was not angry.
Gu He did find that this place seemed better than Black Dog Street. At least these people were more human-like and more energetic. Even the children running past had brighter eyes and did not pester them for money.
There were prostitutes standing on the streets and there were many bars, but there seemed to be no drug addicts wailing in pain all over the place.
It seems like there are some rules for classic cars here.
However, at the beginning of this cold winter, people here are still wearing ragged clothes, and many people are shivering slightly from the cold.
They spent a little money to find a young man named "Bad Doorknob" as a guide and took them to find classic cars.
"We still have people from the East." The doorkeeper looked at Gu He with a smile, "We've been here for a while."
"Oh?" Gu He asked, but he knew that there were Dongtu people in every district of Liuguang City.
Rotten Doorknob means foreigners who do not belong to Rotten Pond, "Look, it's over there."
When the three of them heard this, they all turned around and saw a group of people slaughtering a pig outside a butcher shop. The already dirty road was even more messy because of the pig's feces and urine. The pig hadn't been killed yet and was being tied up and howling.
Endless.
"What the hell do you mean?" Lorna suddenly became angry, thinking that the broken doorknob was insulting Gu He.
"That person, that man!" the broken doorknob said hurriedly, "the one with glasses!"
There was a young black-haired Eastern man in the crowd, who looked to be in his twenties, with a thin build, wearing a pair of glasses, and the rags he was wearing seemed to be cleaner, but he was not much different from the others next to him.
Can't recognize it.
"That guy is an extraordinary person, some kind of educator, a reformer or something." The bad doorknob explained again, "He said he wanted to live with us, so I let him stay."
"Educationists have passed away." Pandora said immediately, "Study, travel, lead by example, and teach all people when you go to a place."
At the same time, people over there were laughing and had nothing good to say about the young educator:
"You don't even dare to kill a pig, what the hell have you done!"
"Hahaha, I'll knock you down!"
Lorna crossed her arms and looked at this scene with great interest, "It's really creative to educate these bastards."
"They seem to be asking him to kill the pig." Gu He felt nervous for his friend as he looked at it. He didn't understand the cultivator or the reformist sect, let alone slaughtering pigs, and didn't know what the other party's plan was.
"That pig was purchased from the Walled City. It's been cold these days." Rotten Doorknob said again, swallowing his saliva. "The old car just spent money to buy a pig, and planned to kill it and cook a big pot of hot soup.
Everyone can have a sip of soup and a sip of meat."
"I'm pretty good at classic cars," Lorna said, "but is it enough points? There are so many people."
"If you cook the soup a little lighter, it will be enough."
While the bad doorman was laughing, the young educator said seriously to the crowd:
"Don't kill this pig. Let's buy two more pigs and draw a pig pen here to keep the piglets."
Before the educator had finished speaking, a garbage man used an air gun used for butchering pigs, and blew the pig's head open with one shot. The pig died amidst the screams, and everyone around them burst into laughter.
Some mud children seemed to be celebrating a festival, laughing and shouting, circling around the crowd, making fun of the educator.
