The end of the world is coming? My parents are reborn to help me win easily

Chapter 161: It's obvious that the price is outrageous
He slowly put away the rules in his hand, lowered the car window, and revealed half of his delicate face: "Do you think you can make us hand over the food?"

"Hey, you heard me right. In this Xiangyang base, few newcomers can leave our territory. Be smart and hand over the food quickly."

Gu Wenxing narrowed his eyes slightly, and the orange-yellow sunlight filtered through the dusty car window, fell into his eyes, and disappeared into his dark pupils.

He tapped his index finger on his knee and tilted his head towards the driver's seat: "Dad, tie them up and throw them aside."

Gu Jinguo lowered the car window most of the way and stretched out a hand.

Several people noticed that although the hand had a sense of vicissitudes, it was not dirty or cracked, and it was obvious that the hand had not suffered much in more than a month.

I felt even happier at once. It seemed that I had met a real sucker today.

The old man's face was obviously excited. He pointed upwards and motioned for Gu Jinguo to look up: "Hey, look, there are cameras everywhere. If you use your superpowers in the base and hurt someone, you will be expelled from the base!"

The family shifted their eyes upwards and saw mast-like buildings crisscrossing everywhere above their heads, dividing the blue sky into small squares.

Gu Jinguo glanced at him with a smile in his eyes: "Old man, it seems that you understand the rules of the base very well."

Having said that, he did not give them a chance to speak again. The water-based power suddenly emerged in the palm of his hand, swirling rapidly to form several water chains.

The white water chains seemed to have eyes and went straight to the waists of several people.

Among the group of people blocking the road, three or four of them were obviously unable to hold on and almost fell backwards, but Gu Jinguo's water ability fell faster than them and had already quickly wrapped around their waists.

Several people felt a tightening around their waists and were pulled aside.

Then he was put on the ground again.

Before he could even utter a curse word, he saw the white car driving away.

Suddenly, a man with a black mole on his right ear sighed, "Oh, why should I join you? I was supposed to go to the West Market to solicit customers!"

Having said that, he left these people and ran quickly towards another road.

Gu Wenxing saw those people standing there intact in the rearview mirror, and then he explained to his family: "The base rules only stipulate that you cannot hurt people in the base without reason. They just want to bully the newcomers who don't know the rules."

The base is quite spacious, with vehicles passing by from time to time. There is no vegetation on the roadside, only buildings, which are a mixture of old and new. It has a decadent and shabby sense of technology.

After driving for more than ten minutes, we finally saw a house transaction and rental center.

Gu Jinguo pulled the car over to the side of the road, and the whole family got out with their bags on their backs.

The store is not big, and the four people who entered almost filled the store. There was only a white bar and a dark green sofa inside.

The bar counter and sofa are both quite old, and the styles don't quite match, it looks like they were just picked up from somewhere.

Gu Wenyue looked around the store and found it to be fairly clean.

Perhaps hearing the footsteps, the person sitting at the bar raised his head, revealing half of his head from the edge of the high bar.

This half of the head was shiny and fleshy, with the eyes squeezed into the flesh and a pair of black-framed glasses on the thick nose.

The pair of small eyes blinked at the four people, and then the head stood up.

It was a middle-aged man with a fat body. "Dear guests, please take a seat. Are you buying or renting a house?"

Gu Jinguo quickly scanned the bald man's face from top to bottom, and said in a steady tone: "Rent a house, short-term lease for one month, help us find a three-bedroom, one-living room house."

When the bald man heard this, he smiled happily, and his face wrinkled a layer more. He came out from the bar and said, "Oh, it's hard to find a three-bedroom apartment nowadays. The price is expensive."

Gu Jinguo and Zhao Minan had previously visited the residential area at the First Base and had a general understanding of the procedures and prices, so that they would not be completely in the dark when they needed to enter the base later.

Hearing him talking about the rent price with a smile on his face, Gu Jinguo knew there was something fishy going on, but he continued, "Tell us first, we'll rent it if you can afford it."

The bald man bent down and said, "Okay." Then he took out a hand-drawn map from the bar, opened it, turned the map around and placed it on the table.

"Our current location is in the outer area of ​​the base, and the price is acceptable. Look here, there is a three-bedroom and one-living room house, the price-performance ratio is not bad."

He paused for a moment, looked at the four people who were listening attentively, and then continued, "I don't recommend the house here. The orientation is not good, and something happened here recently."

Gu Wenxing raised his eyebrows and suddenly asked, "What's the matter?"

The bald man looked at the door and saw that there was no one on the asphalt road. He lowered his voice and said, "It is said that several people have disappeared here recently and they can't be found. This is a big deal. You can find out if you ask around."

The family members looked at each other, wondering if it had anything to do with the ferocious beast they were looking for.

Gu Wenyue's long eyelashes drooped, casting a small shadow on her eyelids.

Seeing that they had all listened, the bald man continued, "There are no three-bedroom and one-living-room apartments in these two places, but there are two three-bedroom and two-living-room apartments. These days, it's nice to have a house to live in. Do you want to go and have a look? The price is fair, the lowest is one hundred first-level crystal cores."

Gu Wenyue's eyes widened and she tugged at Gu Wenxing's sleeve. Gu Wenxing immediately leaned closer to her sister's ear, and she whispered in surprise, "This is too expensive."

He said "hmm" and patted his sister's head: "It's okay, we will listen to our parents."

Gu Jinguo frowned. Compared with the price of the First Base, this price was indeed a bit outrageous. This was just the outskirts of the base.

Before he could say anything, footsteps were heard and landed at the door.

A strong voice sounded: "Is this the place?"

"Yes, yes, I saw these people go in with my own eyes."

The family turned their heads and saw several figures standing outside the door. They were facing away from the light, so they could only make out that they were men, but could not see their faces clearly.

Suddenly, the man standing in front turned around and walked in.

Only then did they see clearly that the person coming was a thin young man, wearing a light brown suit that made him look quite noble.

He tilted his head and looked to the side: "Are these the ones?"

At this time, another person came in. Gu Jinguo's eyes fell on the black mole on the man's right ear, and his eyes darkened.

After the man with the black mole came in, he first smiled shyly at the four people, then leaned close to the thin man's ear and whispered a few words.

The two men's eyes fell on the family, and then the thin man's slightly sick face forced a smile: "Welcome friends to Xiangyang Base. I am Su Yunhan, and I sincerely invite you friends to be my guests."
