Chapter 11
The journey to Anling City did not have many twists and turns. Apart from the occasional roar of gunfire caused by monsters that appeared near the track, Zhu Jue was listening to the surrounding gold diggers as a bystander and talking about various things they encountered during the gold diggers.
For nearly 3 hours, Zhu Jue watched teams of people get off the bus in the passing city and go to find the "treasure" they dreamed of.
Among them, there are professional teams, not only are they properly equipped and fully armed, but they also have detailed plans. They have already set goals on the fortress train.
There are also "newcomers" who have just joined this gold rush. They hold the cheap weapons they bought through some special underground channels at a glance. They only care about listening to the so-called "seniors" who got rich overnight, and their eyes are full of envy and longing.
Little do you know that even if you get rich overnight, you have to have the ability to continue.
Of course, these things have nothing to do with Zhu Jue. He was not interested in reminding those who were greedy. He just sat quietly in the carriage and listened to their discussion. After hearing the radio mention of Anling City, he silently guarded the door with the Three Suns and Moon Tai Knife.
There are quite a few people who choose to get off in Anling City.
On the one hand, because it is close to Anqing Prefecture, there are quite a few cities in the surrounding area where they were emergency evacuation areas and it is easy to find good things.
On the other hand, there are still quite a few of them who are traveling to other cities in Anqing Prefecture.
Yecheng is too dangerous and the high death rate discourages these gold diggers, but the danger in its surrounding areas is between level C and level B. As long as you prepare enough and have some luck, you will undoubtedly gain far beyond other teams.
Sometimes it's like this. Seeing other people making a lot of money, there are always people who want to imitate it.
Put your personal safety behind your mind and rush towards the imagined treasure.
When leaving the train station, Zhujue saw that some teams had asked the people in Anling City to prepare their vehicles and supplies in advance. After leaving the station, he drove away directly and headed straight to the destination in Anqing Mansion.
Zhu Jue seemed very unprofessional. He stood alone at the entrance of the station, watching the off-road vehicles that had obviously been specially modified one after another, and soon found that there were still many vehicles near the station that provided dangerous area pick-up services. Someone hung up fluorescent signs on the windows on one side, which said that people could take people to some places in the dangerous area outside Anling City.
Of course, the asking price is not low.
Most of the owners of these cars are locals in Anling City. They knew that these gold diggers could not have transportation when they came here on the fortress train, so they came here in advance to help the gold diggers save time. While they just drove out and made thousands of federal coins, which was close to the monthly work income of ordinary people.
The vehicles that Zhu Jue had just seen were actually the first group of experienced veteran drivers here who discovered business opportunities. Their combat capabilities may not be very good, but with their familiarity with the terrain and routes of dangerous areas and the reputation accumulated over a long time, they have developed to this point and have even become "special cars". If you want to ask them, you have to spend a high price. You can often make tens of thousands of dollars by running one trip, and you are quite famous even in the gold dig team.
"I shouldn't be in the car~ I should be in the bottom of the car~"
Humphing in his mouth, a strange tone that suddenly appeared in his mind, Zhu Jue found a relatively reliable military green off-road vehicle to lean over.
"Where are my friend going? My car has been specially modified. No matter where you pay, I can take it to the center of Yecheng! Package pickup and drop-off!"
The driver's seat was a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses and a sun hat. When he saw Zhu Jue appearing at the window, he patted his chest and said.
"Then the relationship is good. I just want to go to the center of Yecheng. Let's go... Why can't your car door be opened?"
When Zhu Jue heard that there was someone who could pick him up and drop him off in the central area of Yecheng, he immediately prepared to get on the bus.
However, when he held the door handle, the car door was locked.
"Friend, are you really going to the central area of Yecheng? Are you crazy?"
The driver was helpless. What he said just now was just a word to support his appearance, and he actually met a young man.
Yes, Zhu Jue's current image is not much different from those who would have appeared for a while and those who are worth money and lifeless. He is thinking about the resources everywhere in Yecheng, and he completely forgot the A-level logo posted by the Archaeology Association to that area.
"Hey, you said you can go to the central area of Yecheng and have a pick-up and drop-off. So you are opening the door and cheating consumers?"
"Aren't you nonsense? Don't talk about the central area of Yecheng, ask people around here, who dares to go to the neighborhood of Yecheng? We want to risk making a fortune, but we are not as good as picking gems on the pillars of the King of Hell Hall, right?"
Not to mention anything else, the metaphor made by the car owner is quite appropriate.
"I'll go!"
The crisp sound from the side made Zhu Jue stunned, and the driver in the car also had a stiff expression.
Are there any fucking people who are not afraid of death?
The two of them turned their heads at the same time and saw a woman wearing a mechanic uniform with two chains of iron chains as thick as thumbs hanging on her body.
"I'll go to Yecheng, how much will you pay?"
The hand wearing gray-brown labor protection gloves pushed the mechanical glasses above his head. The woman inserted her waist and looked at Zhu Jue and asked directly.
"How much do you want?"
"Go to 30,000, come back 20,000, and I can only take you to a bus stop outside Yecheng, and then wait for you for one night!"
"make a deal!"
As long as I can return to Yecheng, Zhu Jue will naturally not be short of money, so he nodded without hesitation.
A woman who thought she had to bargained for a while was so easy to agree, and she was a little helpless. You should know that the price she offered was the most expensive here.
"A madman, a fool!"
The middle-aged man leaned down on the seat and sighed helplessly.
Zhu Jue followed the woman and walked towards her car. When he saw its true body, even Zhu Jue couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"As we all know, the source of spiritual pollution monsters do not accept any form of negotiation. As long as they are caught, there is only one result of death. Moreover, their attack power can be easily broken through even bulletproof steel armor. So in my philosophy, if we want to avoid those monsters as much as possible, our transportation should pursue the ultimate speed. My car has been specially modified, abandoning all the burdens, streamlined body, extremely low turf, and built-in multiple splicing engines..."
“Multi-stitched engine?”
Zhu Jue looked at the old engine that was half exposed, obviously assembled by various parts. He finally understood the structure of an engine for the first time, and then smacked his lips and continued,
"I understand the truth. You are planning to drive such a car that is air-conditioned and looks similar to a mobile coffin to take me to Yecheng?"
That's right, the yellow baji car with the scientific name "Bongbeng" with the "multi-stitching engine" is the other party's car.
Zhu Jue swallowed, and suddenly he felt that if he was on the road in this car, he would not know whether there was any danger from a source of spiritual pollution monster. The possibility of being murdered by this female driver was quite high.
Half an hour later...
The engine mixed with some strange sound was roaring wildly. Zhu Jue sat in the back seat of the car, holding his knees with both hands, and staring at the driver of the car behind him.
“s-h-i-t!”
Zhu Jue, who really couldn't control his swear words, began to regret why he had to spend money to cause trouble for himself.
However, when the vehicle actually left Anling City, Zhu Jue unexpectedly discovered that the car was not as unbearable as he imagined. It was flexible in steering and had good off-road capabilities. In addition, it was indeed light and not slow at all. This female driver, who had been a little unreliable before, seemed to know some ways to take shortcuts, often deviated from the highway, and crossed some outdoor trails with a narrow body, which could save a lot of time.
"Ivanka, what are you doing in Yecheng?"
After driving for more than two hours, I was probably bored. The female driver named Linda suddenly asked.
"Treasure hunt."
Zhu Juezheng trains his abilities by creating various ice cubes of different shapes and responds casually.
"Impossible. I've never seen anyone who only uses a knife to hunt for gold. You don't even have a backpack... I just heard you say you still have to go to the central area? Yecheng is very dangerous!"
Linda has seen many gold diggers, and the most common guys who don’t know anything know that they need to prepare a good backpack when going out to hunt for gold, otherwise even if they find any good things, they will have no place to store them.
"So you should also know that the neighborhood is very dangerous, so why do you dare to take me over?"
Deliberately changing the topic, Zhu Jue was also a little curious about Linda's intention. He had strong strength to with him, and this woman who didn't even bring a weapon actually used Yecheng as her destination without changing her face.
"Fifty thousand federal coins plus my previous savings, I can leave Anling City and go to Shuguang City... So what if I fight for my life? In this era, what is the point of living without money?"
Linda's answer is quite tough.
"I wish you success."
"You haven't told me what you are doing in Yecheng yet."
"Didn't you just say it, treasure hunting."
Throw out a diamond-shaped ice crystal, cut off the branches that were growing across the shrubs, and watch it go with the wind, Zhu Jue said softly,
"I have an important treasure that has been lost in the central area of Yecheng. I have to find it back, no matter how dangerous it is."
"Lost? Are you a resident of Yecheng?"
Linda asked unexpectedly when guessing his identity from Zhu Jue's words.
"Well, I haven't been back in years."
As he approached Yecheng, Zhu Jue was a little worried and worried. Looking at the gloomy sky where clouds had accumulated since the beginning, his mood suddenly became a little depressed.
In just a few hours, the rain clouds formed by dawn arrived in Anqing Mansion.
He was frozen for five years.
