The burial ground that Qu Jianlei chose was actually a bit of a pit. It looked easy to bury people, but the land... was relatively solid.
Eleven corpses take up a lot of space, and they cannot be buried too shallowly.
It took three strong laborers a day to dig a suitable pit.
It took a long time to throw the body in, bury it, and compact the soil.
After finishing their work, everyone simply decided to take a rest nearby, eat something and sleep.
Qu Jianlei once again made a big pot of meat noodle soup, and even untied the woman's hands while eating.
The small group of three hunters did not take the opportunity to launch an attack, and the whole process was peaceful.
The woman ate happily and even asked, "Krishna, are the foods you are referring to...all of this quality?"
Obviously, with Hua Scorpion's strength, it is not easy to eat such a meal.
Qu Jianlei replied calmly, "I am more fond of food and drink."
There are still conditions, the woman couldn't help but sigh secretly.
But her partner gave her a questioning look: Are you really not going to do anything?
Hua Scorpion rolled his eyes: Don't be childish... Why do you dare to let me loose?
You can obviously make money through trading, why are you still playing tricks? Do you think your life is too peaceful?
On the other side, Xiao Jing also asked Qu Jianlei in a low voice, "Will these people... leak secrets?"
He had already vaguely guessed that Brother Krishna should have a big secret.
Now, his life and death, honor and disgrace have been tied to Brother Krishna, and he must consider the boss.
Qu Jianlei slurped down two mouthfuls of noodles, then swallowed them, "I'm aware of this...can I add some chili?"
There are no chili peppers in the wasteland, but there are still some spicy seasonings. It has no side effects, so it is good.
After eating, he tied up the flower scorpion again, but this time he put his hands forward.
This way, I can have a good sleep, but it's really impossible to sleep with my back tied.
When camping in the wild, it is customary to have a night watch, which goes without saying.
Early the next morning, everyone got up and continued on their way until evening, when they finally arrived at a supply station.
There was actually a repair shop in this supply station, and the shop owner was brought out by the rider.
The shop owner inspected the two vehicles and said that the sale could be accepted, but I had to bring equipment and materials.
In the wilderness of the wasteland, there is really no equipment that is too large. If you are doing repairs, small equipment is enough.
Qu Jianlei didn't care about their negotiations at all, and remained invisible throughout the process, leaving it to the three of them.
However, he did put a hood on the hairless monster and a face towel to prevent others from recognizing him.
Xiao Jing did not reject this, but was a little excited, "If you give me another dagger, can I be considered an adventurer?"
Not to mention, there are many mutants in the wasteland, but there are really adventurers of this size.
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him and handed him a dagger, "It's yours, don't lose it."
The supplies he possesses are currently accessible to the hairless monsters, so it doesn't matter if they can be used temporarily.
But now it's completely different when I hand it over to the other party solemnly.
Xiao Jing took the dagger and played with it fondly, carefully wrapping a hemp rope around the handle of the dagger.
Not long after, the owner of the repair shop came again, this time with a truck similar to a tractor.
The truck has everything, various parts and materials, cutting and welding tools, batteries, etc.
He mainly modified the convertible light truck and the motorcycle that Qu Jianlei used as a spare.
As for the truck and two motorcycles that Qu Jianlei wanted to sell, Hua Xiezi said there was no rush and she could repair them later.
During this period, the motorcycle rider left, saying that he was going to get supplies for the transaction.
Qu Jianlei didn't object and just watched him leave indifferently.
It is impossible for a person in the wasteland not to take any risks. At least for now, he does not have the ability to completely avoid risks.
However, he believed that the other party would most likely not play any tricks.
Of course, even so, he was still leaning on the modified motorcycle, ready to respond at any time.
In the end, nothing changed. Two days later, the rider arrived with large and small bags.
There are not many nutrients, but there is a lot of food, at least two hundred kilograms, some water and ammunition, and two energy blocks.
There is no oil. Hunters rarely store such things. There is a supply station next to it, so it is very convenient to replenish oil.
Hong Wu had twelve silver dollars and some silver dimes.
But Qu Jianlei didn't take those silver coins, he wasn't so petty.
When the rider arrived, the vehicle happened to be almost repaired.
Qu Jianlei said hello to them, put the supplies in the car, and then drove away in the open-top light truck.
The three Hua Scorpion looked at each other, and the rider couldn't help but say, "Just leave like that?"
Hua Xiezi shook his head slightly and spoke with deep emotion, "No one can underestimate this land."
The owner of the repair shop was inspecting the two motorcycles. Hearing this, he asked curiously, "Did you suffer a loss?"
The rider replied casually, "It's hard to say, it's just that I don't make much money."
Another person said, "It's really not easy to come back alive this time..."
The three people transported the two motorcycles to the supply station and asked the shop owner to continue repairs.
Instead, they drove a truck and headed straight to the Hongwu settlement.
There are also the corpses of the fallen as evidence and three mutilated corpses of the victims in the car. If they are not registered, they will stink.
On the way to the settlement, the rider said, "The other party seems... to have some shady things?"
"Don't mention this matter anymore," Hua Xiezi said calmly, "Just pretend you haven't seen them for the second time."
"Didn't see it the second time?" The rider was surprised, "So, it was the three of us who killed these seven fallen ones?"
"Of course," Hua Xingzi replied calmly, "otherwise, why do you think he left the truck to us? This is evidence!"
Another person spoke thoughtfully, "In other words, if you want to take all the credit, you have to hide your whereabouts for them?"
The rider was surprised when he heard this, "That guy Krishna thinks so far?"
Hua Scorpion spoke leisurely, "Don't think that all adventurers only know how to fight and kill."
At the same time, Qu Jianlei drove a convertible light truck in a large circle and headed straight for the Hongwu settlement.
In order to avoid suspicion, he deliberately chose the city gate in the opposite direction.
When entering the city, the light truck was stopped by the guard, "IDs!"
In this case, if you can't produce the documents, you will at least be beaten to death, and it is normal for you to lose your property.
The hairless monster showed his silver medal and said, "We'll do the work."
The two guards exchanged glances, then one of them reached out and grabbed the silver medal, "Bring it to me and see!"
Qu Jianlei's laser pistol was already pressed against his forehead, "What are you going to do?"
The guard's body stiffened, and he said forcefully, "Isn't it necessary to check the ID?"
The hairless monster raised his hand, revealed his dagger, and asked grimly, "Believe it or not, no one will care if I kill you?"
He understands the weight of the silver medal better than Qu Jianlei, but it feels a bit weird to say such cruel words in a child's voice.
The guard really didn't dare to bet. The two of them looked a bit like wanderers in the wild, but... what if they weren't?
Anyone who dares to treat the guards like this must know the ropes.
He suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and replied coldly, "I have to check it out, right?"
The hairless monster snorted coldly, "Then do you see clearly how my dagger is wrapped?"
As expected, the guard glanced at the dagger and frowned, "Safe Knot?"
The hemp rope is wrapped around the dagger to prevent the hand from slipping after being stained with blood. Generally, the simpler the way to wrap the hemp rope, the better.
Only those masters who live in settlements and have nothing to do will think carefully about how to entangle them.
The peace knot is no more reliable than other methods, and getting tangled is no ordinary trouble.
But it has a very good meaning and can represent blessings.
The guard roughly knew how to wrap the safety knot, but he didn't do it with his own dagger - it wasn't necessary.
Now that he recognized the peace knot, he knew that this little guy must have some background.
So there was no need to look at the silver medal anymore, but he still said, "Other documents."
Xiao Jing answered simply, "We are only doing business, you don't need to read other documents!"
It has nothing to do with you whether you have other documents or not. Just recognize this silver medal.
The guard frowned, "Without other documents, cars and thermal weapons cannot enter!"
Xiao Jing argued seriously, "Motorcycles can enter!"
The settlement is indeed wary of outsiders, and it is normal to restrict the entry of cars and thermal weapons into the city.
The guard still wants to be a bit difficult, otherwise the owner of the silver medal has a very noble status and can show some favoritism.
But he must persist, and we cannot say that he did it wrong.
Fortunately, he found a parking place for the two of them and said, "It's free for three days."
These rules are very strict, and he doesn't dare to act like a monster.
Xiao Jing said fiercely, "If something goes wrong in the car, you know the consequences!"
The guard's face was expressionless, as if he hadn't heard the words.
Qu Jianlei remained silent throughout the whole process, looking like he was the little guy's bodyguard.
After taking off the spare motorcycle, the two men covered the body of the motorcycle with felt cloth.
Just as they were about to enter the city, the guard stopped them again and said, "Take off your scarves to see if you two are wanted criminals."
Xiao Jing was furious when he heard this, "Are you looking for trouble?"
Seeing his arrogant behavior, the guard became more and more certain that these two people were related.
But he replied confidently, "This is a rule. If you have documents, it is not impossible to negotiate."
Qu Jianlei and Qu Jianlei lost their temper, so they could only take off their headscarves and let the other party inspect them.
Two people without eyebrows? The guard was slightly surprised.
However, he didn't care about it, just assuming that the other party had similar mutations or experienced the same experience.
After taking a closer look, it turned out that he did not match the number of the wanted criminals, and he was not too troublesome. "Okay, you can go."
The motorcycle's accelerator started and the two entered the city.
Qu Jianlei sighed secretly: I feel like things may not go smoothly if I come here this time.
