The world enters the age of myth

Chapter 312 Roshan and Market

The whole body of this creature is full of fat and rancid protein. It is white, yellow, and even green in some places. It likes to bask in the sun during the day, and likes to hide in the sewers to absorb gutter oil at night. It looks like an oversized piece of fat covered in mold.

"An interesting guy."

Lu Yiming flew directly into the sky, and a white light flashed. Roshan felt that he had been offended and squirmed violently. He did not notice that the enemy quickly returned to calm - it was not a big loss anyway.

The rune knife stabbed a piece of fishy meat and came roaring.

He put this small piece of meat into a glass bottle, "I got the Roshan specimen."

"It's very simple."

Lu Yiming did not dare to risk his own life, and once again offended this putrid grease, which was bigger than a 50-story building, and walked away.

"It is said that this is just a small sub-body of Roshan... The sewers of the original city have been completely occupied by the main body of Roshan. Due to its large size, it cannot come out at all. What we see now is only a small part."

Huang Fusheng pointed at the Roshan six hundred meters away: "Some people speculate that all the Roshan may be the same. If it is angry, it should be very powerful."

"That's incredible..."

The breeze blew, and a pungent smell of hydrogen sulfide, like rotten rotten eggs, came towards them. Zhong Peng and Liu Xuwei took a few steps back and frowned involuntarily.

If humans want to survive near Roshan, 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, Roshan will also become aggressive..."

Lu Yiming's eyebrows twitched. In fact, it was hard for him to imagine that such a huge mountain of flesh would jump up and attack human beings like a mountain.

Huang Fusheng licked his lips and said: "The meat on its body is good fuel. Have you seen the purple colonies growing on it? If you are really hungry, it is said that these fungi have special cooking methods. , non-toxic, and tastes pretty good... Of course I don’t know how to cook this thing.”

"When the meat mountains are moved to a certain place, there will be a slippery layer of grease on the ground... If you move them quickly enough, you will find that they can actually be used for cooking."

Li Wei, the translation expert who was following behind, looked strange, but he was still very faithful and translated these things.

Even Lu Yiming pinched his nose. The stuff in the water channel was really a bit heavy... But who would want to do this unless it was a last resort?

Keep going.

In about two hours, several people arrived at this small village called "Qingshi".

From a distance, you can see a bamboo pole more than 10 meters high, with a red flag fluttering in the wind at the top. This should be the sign of the so-called "market".

The residents here are usually scattered in the wilderness, but now they have only gathered temporarily to live in the abandoned villages.

Anyway, this world is vast and sparsely populated, and abandoned houses are everywhere. In order to avoid long-term settlement, the accumulation of negative emotions will be found by powerful grievances. The caravans here will change places in about half a month to a month.

Then some scavengers gathered together, and the cycle repeated.

"The name of this caravan is 'Red Rose'. There are about three hundred people in the caravan who have been working together for a long time. The others are here temporarily to trade, which is considered a good size. The most important thing is that it has a good reputation. Not bad." Huang Fusheng picked up a cigarette and took a drag, his eyes shining brightly.

He is really full of energy now!

That idiom goes like this...the fox pretends to be the tiger's power? !

I, Huang Fusheng, am really proud of myself this time!

Sensing the approach of several people, a soldier guarding the outside came over. He held an old rifle in his arms and asked, "Stop! Where are you from?"

"Hey, man. Don't be nervous, it's me! Huang Fusheng! These people are my old brothers. They are from outside. They want to come over and meet the adults here. Do you have any fresh goods here? Let brothers take advantage of it. .”

As a treacherous man who has lived for 20 years and has some ability to sense danger, he has quite good connections in the local area.

"Fresh goods? Lao Huang, you are still as lustful as ever. Where do you get fresh goods these days? There aren't even many little girls! Even if there are, you can't enjoy them." These soldiers laughed "hehe" stand up.

"If you want to bring people in, it's not a big problem. The old rule is, two cigarettes or two potatoes per person, fuel, or anything else will do! It's only during the day today. At night, people have to leave. We can't stay here anymore There are more people living there.”

"Also, watch your buddies and don't cause trouble here!"

"okay."

Huang Fusheng paid the toll quickly and brought Lu Yiming and his party in. He can still afford the ticket price.

"The scale of this market is not large. After all, the population of the suburbs near the city, with a radius of 20 kilometers, may only add up to two or three thousand."

"Only two or three thousand?"

"yes……"

Lu Yiming sighed in his heart, this is a very large coastal city. The original population may have reached 20 to 30 million, but now, there are only 2,000 to 3,000, and the chance of survival is less than one in ten thousand!

If calculated based on the world's population of 6 billion, there will only be a mere 600,000 people. This is still on a global scale...

"Because there is a sparse population in an area, large caravans in the market often stop and go in various areas and wander around in various places. There are also territorial divisions between resentments and resentments, and they have mastered some territories The distribution often shuttles around the edges."

"Moreover, this caravan also has transportation vehicles that can transport more goods."

"In this doomsday state, a car that can still run is a very valuable high-end asset. As long as you don't encounter an extremely powerful enemy, your life is not in danger."

"But usually, everyone uses rickshaws to transport goods."

The main roads here still exist, and it is quite easy to ride 50 to 60 kilometers a day using human-powered tricycles to transport goods. If I go faster, I might be able to ride seventy or eighty kilometers.

"How did you know the fair was coming here?"

Huang Fusheng pointed to the sky: "You can hear the broadcast through the radio. In fact, only those places have fixed gathering days. Although 'Resentment' is very powerful, they don't know how to use human technology, and they don't know us either. They will gather at a fixed place...hehe."

"After the transaction is completed, we will choose to leave. Wait for the emotions here to slowly dissipate. This way we will not cause too much resentment."

"That makes sense."

"Conflicts are not allowed to break out here, fighting is not allowed, and stealing is not allowed... Because when conflicts occur, there will be a lot of negative emotions, which are easily felt by resentment. If you cause trouble here, you will be targeted by the public, and you will be kicked out at the least. , or more importantly, killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, this is an unspoken rule that has been formed for a long time."

Huang Fusheng said this and looked at them cautiously.

These humans from the parallel world are too powerful. The enhanced suits they wear are almost invulnerable, and even bullets will not leave any marks.

It is not impossible for these people to take down this market.

Lu Yiming nodded slightly, "Don't worry, we are here to find cooperation, and we will not cause trouble here. Don't worry."

The emergence of the market gave surrounding humans a place to trade, which was a necessary link for survival. If people do not trade with each other, they are no different from beasts.

Everyone follows the unspoken rules that have been slowly formed over the past 20 years.

I saw many bizarre transactions along the way.

For example, the most common food for humans here: an ugly-looking plant root that looks a bit like a sweet potato, with some strange black spots on its surface. The smallest one is only the size of a walnut, while the largest one is as big as a basketball.

"A food that has mutated from potatoes. It doesn't taste very good and is very bitter. It is nourished with plant ash and rainwater and grows up. It can barely fill the stomach... If you remove those black spots, it will no longer be poisonous." Huang Fusheng explained, " Usually these things are planted on the roof, not in contact with the ground.”

Even if you are eating instant noodles, compared to these bitter gourd-like potatoes, your life is like a fairy.

"These mushrooms grow from rotten trees and are edible. They taste pretty good. They are not poisonous."

But eating mushrooms for a long time will not fill your stomach. This thing actually has no energy.

"Mutated rat jerky may have a small amount of toxicity. But as long as you don't eat too much, it's not a big problem." 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 madly and can flap their wings to fly. They are difficult to raise...it is considered a relatively high-end food."

Skinny men and women are everywhere. Because the legendary "waste" has polluted most of the land, even the yield of mutated potatoes is not very high.

There were no beggars or refugees in the market, because the entrance fee to the market only cost 2 cigarettes, which was not affordable for the refugees.

In this world, human beings are very tolerant.

Even if life is unsatisfactory, there are still not too many complaints or worries, and everyone looks calm.

Because once negative emotions break out, the chances of being blamed will increase significantly. They all know that keeping a calm face and a stable mind is the best way to survive.

People with unstable mentality have long been eliminated by natural selection in the past 20 years.

Lu Yiming sighed in his heart: "What a strong world...it has evolved a completely different way of living."

Uniformed soldiers stood in groups of three at the four corners of the market, smoking cigarettes and holding firearms in a daze, looking like robots.

There are also women with minimal clothes on the roadside, as well as children born from unexpected pregnancies. They are put on shelves and sold like commodities.

There are also some women who are ogling the strong Lu Yiming.

In this era, it is difficult for adults to survive, and children are definitely a burden. If parents are not capable of raising them, boys are basically hopeless and will be left in some unknown corner, or simply become Into a food, literally.

If you keep a pretty good-looking girl for a few years, you might be able to sell it and get your money back...
