Xiaojing was a little unsure when he heard what Caixi said. He could only look at Qu Jianlei, "Brother, what do you think?"
"One hundred, just one hundred," Qu Jianlei replied expressionlessly, "You must be willing to spend money to spy on the news."
He was already thinking about whether to abandon the crack and cross the mountains with Xiao Jing.
The cracks were also felt, and the other party seemed a little dissatisfied with himself.
But he was already a living dead, and although the wasteland was big, there was nothing worth caring about.
So he took a hundred silver dollar bill, turned around and left.
Xiao Jing couldn't help but ask Qu Jianlei, "Do you have any objections to him?"
Qu Jianlei thought about it, then shook his head, "Not really, it's just... maybe I don't have the right personality."
Then he put aside these thoughts and said, "You concentrate on looking after the house, and I will buy some materials."
There are still areas that need to be improved on the mecha, and since it has been abandoned for so long, many parts still need to be maintained...
Eighty-seven silver dollars is probably not enough, but let's make do with it for now.
When he came back, it was already evening and there were only three silver dollars left.
He handed three silver coins to Xiao Jing, "Save some money, I will go into the mountains again later."
At this moment, the crack also came back, "In another month, there may be a smuggling team entering the mountain."
Qu Jianlei thought about it and asked, "How to calculate the cost?"
"One hundred to two hundred silver dollars per person, the price is not fixed, life and death are at your own risk..."
"After entering the mountain, if you perform well in the battle, you can refund some of the fees as appropriate, and you may even make money."
Everyone in the wasteland may become a hunter, so the escort fee for smuggling is not fixed.
That's not what Qu Jianlei was thinking about, "In other words, as long as you are willing to pay a certain price, can you still climb over the mountains?"
To him now, one or two hundred silver dollars is really not that much money.
The key is that this news means that even if he crosses the mountains, he may still not be able to avoid being tracked by others.
"This price is not something ordinary people can afford," cracks replied sternly.
"And the danger is too great. There is a narrow escape from death... Why should people who can afford it take the risk?"
Qu Jianlei thought for a moment before asking, "How far can Hong Zi's influence reach?"
"That's where the Zhouzi settlement is," crack replied firmly, "the prefix is different, and the influence is extremely limited."
Qu Jianlei looked at him blankly and waited for a long time before asking, "You already knew that, right?"
There was no expression on Crack's face. He paused for a moment before replying, "Xiao Jing is still a child, it's too dangerous."
Qu Jianlei shook his head helplessly. This was the reason why he didn't like the other party.
Although Crack is in a desperate state, he is really very assertive.
Qu wanted to find a wild survival expert who knew the wasteland, but this expert said that half of it was hidden and half of it was hidden, which was very Cao Dan.
If the cracks had any bad intentions, they didn't.
He didn't tell the news from the other side of the mountain before because he didn't want Xiao Jing to take risks with Qu Jianlei.
Now Qu Jianlei is almost ready. If something unexpected happens, he will definitely have to climb over the mountain, and he can't stop it, so he reveals the truth.
However, Qu Jianlei just couldn't stand this kind of concealment, and he was used to making comprehensive plans.
He shook his head and went back to the house without any response to the news.
After dinner, he meditated until late at night and left on foot with a large amount of supplies.
After he left, there was another conversation between Xiaojing and Xianni, "Why didn't you tell the truth in the first place?"
Fissure was silent for a long time before replying, "For your own good."
Xiao Jing sighed helplessly, "Heitian...Brother Fugui doesn't like your attitude very much."
Fissure remained silent for a long time before replying, "He is too self-righteous and will suffer a big loss sooner or later."
"He won't!" Xiao Jing screamed as if someone had stepped on her tail.
After a pause, he sighed, "After you get over the mountain, otherwise... you'd better leave."
He was silent for a long time, and finally said, "I have no problem supporting myself, and I will be your neighbor when the time comes..."
It was early morning three days later when Qu Jianlei came back again.
The processing and maintenance this time were quite successful, and his mood improved a lot.
After eating, he picked up his large and small bags and prepared to go hunting in the mountains again. At the same time, he gave Xiao Jing a word.
"Look after your home. I'll go to the mountains again and everything will be ready when I come back."
Xiao Jing was also used to his behavior and just asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you want to leave?"
"It depends on the situation," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "If I can avoid leaving, I don't want to run around."
Xiao Jing's eyes lit up slightly, "Ready...that means you don't have to go into the mountains often?"
"It's just not as frequent as now," Qu Jianlei replied casually.
If we don’t go into the mountains, will we be in vain? “I hope I’ll have better luck this time.”
"It will definitely be fine," Xiao Jing clenched her fist, "When the time comes, you can teach me Tai Chi!"
Qu Jianlei smiled, turned around and walked out of the room.
After leaving the yard, he felt a little uneasy: Could this be a FLAG?
The crack carried him again, to the foot of the mountain, and then back.
Qu Jianlei walked all the way into the mountains. Some people would say hello to him when they met him.
He was not interested in these responses, so he nodded slightly and walked forward quickly: I hope there will be a good harvest!
However, luck is something that really cannot stand talking about.
He wandered around the mountains for four days and encountered two C-level mutant spotted wolverines.
Although wolverines are only C-level, they are extremely ferocious, have very tough fur, and are extremely aggressive.
It's a bit like the "Flat-Headed Brother" on Blue Star.
Qu Jianlei didn't want to do anything to this guy at all - the meat couldn't be eaten, so the skin could be sold for some money.
However, he stepped into the opponent's territory and was chased by a group of enemies. He was unable to escape from the territory.
It took him half a day to kill the two wolverines.
Then he realized that the female wolverine was pregnant, which was why the two wolverines were so crazy.
The value of the wolverine's fur could not even make up for his consumption.
But the good thing is that the unborn cubs in the belly of a female wolverine are edible.
It’s finally better than nothing!
Qu Jianlei withdrew to the edge of the safe zone and started cooking this "hard dish".
He didn't know that while he was cooking hard food, a convoy came to Hong Yi, including his acquaintances...
Three days later, he hunted another nest of tin rabbits, two large and five small.
This little gain is a bit depressing.
He did not continue cooking, but marinated the rabbit, planning to stay for another three days before going back.
It’s really disappointing to not get much, but it’s unacceptable to hold on to something just because you don’t get much.
The next day, while he was exploring around, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
He walked up a small slope, picked up his telescope and looked around carefully.
Scanning to a certain angle, he was stunned, and a familiar figure appeared in the telescope - Flower Scorpion!
It is actually quite difficult to identify people in the wilderness of the wasteland. Everyone is dressed in dusty clothes, and many of them have their faces covered.
But Qu Jianlei has a good memory and is very good at recognizing people.
Not to mention that Hua Scorpion's clothes are basically the same as the one he had in the last battle, with similar colors and styles.
It is worth mentioning that although she was holding a laser rifle in her hand, her right hand was covering her left breast and making a gesture.
On Blue Star, this gesture means "OK", but in the wasteland, this gesture means "I have no hostility"!
Like the Blue Star people, most Wastelanders are right-handed and have their heart on the left side.
The dominant hand is placed on the heart, and the circle between the thumb and index finger indicates the position of the heart. It is indeed a very friendly gesture.
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but frown slightly. He had a premonition: trouble was coming.
Looking around carefully, he saw no other people.
But he still didn't get close to the other party. Instead, he chose a bush and hid his body.
On the other hand, Hua Scorpion was walking in his direction while looking around - this hillside should have a good view.
However, just when she was fifty or sixty meters away from Qu Jianlei, Qu Jianlei said, "Don't move!"
Hua Scorpion was stunned for a moment, but as expected, he didn't make any reaction, but spoke in a deep voice.
"Is it Krishna? I don't mean any harm."
"Otherwise you would have been dead," Qu Jianlei slowly got up from the ground holding the Gauss automatic gun.
The muzzle of the gun was pointed steadily at Hua Scorpion, and he asked aloud, "Why are you here?"
"Coming to find you!" Hua Scorpion replied, looking around, "Is there anyone else around?"
"If you didn't bring anyone," Qu Jianlei replied casually, and then asked, "What are you looking for from me?"
"I was coerced to come to you," Hua Xiezi was still looking around, but the muzzle of the laser gun was never raised.
"Wocao," Qu Jianlei couldn't help but spit out the curse words, and then asked, "Who coerced you?"
"A big shot in the main settlement," Hua Xiezi turned his back again to see if there was anyone on his way.
"They are looking for a very important person, and they are also looking for you."
Don’t the two identities of Krishna and Silly Qu overlap with each other?
Qu Jianlei asked calmly, "A very important person...who is that person?"
"You don't need to know," Hua Xiezi turned around and spoke calmly, "It's not good for you to know too much about some information."
"Okay, you're right," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "Well, you probably haven't asked how important that person is."
Hua Scorpion nodded slightly when he heard this, "I haven't lived enough yet."
Qu Jianlei sighed slightly, "Then...why are they looking for me?"
"Can't you think of it?" Hua Xiezi looked at him curiously.
"If the news is correct, you exchanged a lot of mutant beast crystals at the settlement?"
Qu Jianlei paused for a moment before snorting coldly, "These greedy carrion-eating vultures..."
Hua Scorpion looked at him with interest, "Some people even think that you might be that important person."
"Nonsense, I have never been important," Qu Jianlei snorted, "How is my companion now?"
