Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 114 I woke up seven times last night because of the heat, and you said the air conditioner was a bit cold?

Although she found it difficult to talk about, Cheng Xue felt she still had to tell the truth.

The captain had already given her such a hint; it was obvious he wanted her to spread this gossip.

Moreover, she heard that many sacrificial offerings require a price to be paid each time they are used, and there are all sorts of strange and unusual prices.

Thinking about it, she glanced at Zhou Dun, whose face was somewhat pale.

Wu Meng had told her before that Zhou Dun had a sacrificial offering, but the price was that the wound from the Tang sword had to remain indefinitely.

Once the skin is cut by this Tang sword, the wound will not disappear for 24 hours.

Zhou Dun looked like he had lost too much blood.

Not only Zhou Dun, but the two sisters Li Ling and Li Qian also looked somewhat pale.

The continuous bleeding, even with a small wound and with three people taking turns to pay the price, will still lead to symptoms of excessive blood loss.

Almost instantly, Cheng Xue connected the image to the sacrificial offering.

Looking at Wu Meng, who was still waiting for her to speak, Cheng Xue forced a smile and then recounted the gossip that Hui had told her.

After hearing Cheng Xue's words, Wu Meng and her brother Wu Jie, who were leaning against her, fell silent.

Even Zhou Dun and the other two, who were some distance away, fell silent.

“At first I thought it was some survivor who had awakened a sequence,” Wu Meng said, looking at Cheng Xue with a resentful expression.

Her ears are not clean.

Cheng Xue just gave an awkward smile.

As they chatted, Hui, who had been lying in the passenger seat with his eyes closed pretending to be asleep, opened his eyes.

He moved his right hand slightly, then looked in the direction where Cheng Xue was, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Quite smart."

He likes to deal with smart people.

This way, you don't have to spend a lot of time and effort explaining things.

"The payment is complete, now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Captain Hui let out a sigh of relief and found two packs of salt-baked chicken legs that were about to expire in the car.

"If it weren't about to expire, I wouldn't even want to eat you." Hui licked his lips as he looked at the chicken leg in his hand.

"Sigh, the shelf life is one year, and it'll all expire soon."

"Food is running out, looks like we need to start preparing soon."

While eating a chicken leg, Hui muttered to himself.

"We still need to ensure that we have at least some basic food. Let's go see if Old Man Li has any ideas."

Unlike Chu Shenghui's team, An Xi, A Xin, and Zhu Qing, Old Man Li was currently carrying a foam box from the cargo bed of the pickup truck into the vehicle with a pained expression.

"My goodness! I don't know how long this awful weather will last, how are you all going to survive!"

As he spoke, he kept moving various plants from the styrofoam boxes to the back seat of the pickup truck.

With him was a man who looked to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old.

"Xiao Chen, hurry up!"

"Ok!"

Since their driver was killed by the supernatural beings during their previous attack in the supernatural realm, they have each found a new one.

There were four foam boxes on the pickup truck's cargo bed, and they were quickly all loaded into the vehicle.

After finishing his work, Old Man Li poured a cup of water from the bucket. After taking a sip of the clean water, his previously feverish body instantly felt refreshed.

Xiao Chen also drank a glass of water to cool off, then asked somewhat strangely, "Grandpa, why do I feel like the car is a bit too spacious?"

"Logically speaking, it would be very cramped to put four styrofoam boxes in the car."

Completely baffled, Xiao Chen could only ask Old Man Li for an explanation.

Upon hearing his words, Old Man Li waved his hand.

"Even if you hadn't asked, I would have told you anyway."

"There is a sacrificial object inside the car. Although it has no offensive or defensive capabilities, it can fold and expand a limited space."

"So you see the car as cramped inside, but it's actually quite large."

"All my plants are in the car."

"In that case, we shouldn't need to put plants in the back, right?" Xiao Chen scratched his head.

"What do you know?" Old Li finished the water in his cup in one gulp, returned to the passenger seat, and picked up a mineral water bottle filled with murky liquid, taking a big gulp.

"Screech!"

"The homemade wine from the countryside tastes better."

After saying that, he continued, "Don't your plants need photosynthesis?!"

"Although the plants I cultivate can barely be considered a kind of extraordinary material, they still need various nutrients just like normal plants."

He paused, as if he had thought of something, took another sip of wine, and pulled a bright red chili pepper and a green cucumber from his pocket.

"this is for you."

He handed the chili peppers and cucumbers to Xiao Chen.

"If you throw this chili pepper, it will explode with about the same force as a hand grenade. If you eat this cucumber, it will create a semi-transparent shield around you."

"You can keep it for yourself or use it to trade with Chu Sheng for a supernatural material, it's up to you."

"If you're going to use this as a sacrificial offering, use the cucumber as the material, take something that can provide defense, and give Chu Sheng the chili pepper as payment."

"Don't be foolish enough to abandon defense for the sake of attack, or you'll die sooner or later."

Xiao Chen was clearly surprised by Old Man Li's generosity when he received the two extraordinary plants from him.

"Old man, you..."

He wanted to say something, but Old Man Li waved his hand to interrupt him, "Go do your own thing. If you have nothing to do, find something to do. Don't bother me while I'm drinking." "If you really want to repay me, then live a little longer. Don't run into something weird and get your blood on the car."

"Ok!"

Xiao Chen didn't say anything more, but nodded heavily.

Then, as if he had thought of something, Xiao Chen opened his mouth and said, "Grandpa, I'll go cook now. Would you like steamed cured pork?"

"Okay, sure." Old Li nodded, then continued, "There's a water spinach dish that's almost ready. Go get some water spinach and have a meal."

"it is good!"

The convoy rested at this location until 9 a.m. the next morning before continuing its journey.

As we enter this period of extreme heat, the sun sets later each day than it did the day before, and last night it didn't set until 8 p.m.

As the sun sets, the surrounding temperature, while not continuing to rise, also drops only slightly.

The next morning, the sun rose before five o'clock.

It emitted extreme heat as soon as it came out.

The temperature, which had dropped slightly at night, suddenly rose again.

The signs of extreme heat are beginning to emerge.

Chu Sheng slept until after 7 a.m. before getting up. It wasn't because he woke up naturally, but because he was a little cold from the air conditioning and got chilled.

Letting the sun shine on him, Chu Sheng lay on the bed, while the butcher sat in the driver's seat, alert to their surroundings.

"This air conditioning seems a bit too effective."

Chu Sheng shivered as he got out of bed, raised the temperature setting from 5 to 22 degrees Celsius, and then got out of the car to warm himself up.

There are no restrictions on the things he upgrades; in fact, he can even set the car's air conditioning to minus thirty degrees Celsius if he wants.

That's a real freezer.

As Chu Sheng got off the car, he saw many survivors who were shirtless and fanning themselves with various objects to cool off.

"You're up?" Zhu Qing, sitting on the ground, raised her cup to Chu Sheng as she saw him.

"You came out earlier than usual today."

"Oh, I was woken up by the cold," Chu Sheng said naturally.

Zhu Qing: "???"

"Why are you up so early too?" Ignoring Zhu Qing, Chu Sheng looked at him with some confusion.

Upon hearing his words, the question mark on Zhu Qing's face turned into discomfort.

"It got heated up."

"Even though you provided me with clean water, it's still hot when I sleep."

As he spoke, Zhu Qing stood up abruptly, his face filled with grief and indignation.

"I woke up seven times last night because I was too hot, and you're saying you woke up because you were too cold?!"

"I get up at night to drink some water and then go back to sleep. I wake up from the heat and then drink some water again!"

"When I woke up this morning because of the heat, I was thinking of getting into your car."

“But as soon as I get close, that butcher of yours will bare his teeth at me and raise his knife to chop me!”

When Zhu Qing said that he wanted to crawl into the Netherworld Bone Chariot, he felt no shame whatsoever.

"You have no idea how envious I was when I saw the dew condensing on your car window this morning because of the temperature difference!"

"Why can you keep the air conditioning on all the time?!"

"You're one thing, but Anxi and Ah Xin's cars are the same as yours, they never turn off the air conditioning!"

"You have that much oil?!"

Chu Sheng: "."

Hearing Zhu Qing's voice filled with grief and indignation, Chu Sheng fell silent.

Is it possible for our car to be fuel-free?

"The Netherworld Bone Cart generates electricity automatically 24 hours a day, providing a permanent range. Anxi and the others' car has a perpetual motion engine, which also doesn't consume fuel."

"That's why we can keep the air conditioning on all the time."

Zhu Qing: "."

Silence can sometimes be deafening.

However, Zhu Qing quickly realized what was going on and exclaimed excitedly, "So what do we need to have unlimited power?!"

He really wanted to turn on the air conditioner!
"Well, if you give me a heart, I can turn your car into a perpetual motion machine."

"Or if your car can be a hybrid, and you give me a sunburst material, I can make it charge 24 hours a day."

"goodbye!"

Zhu Qing turned to leave, but after only a few steps, she turned back to Chu Sheng and said, "I want to get in your car tonight."

Chu Sheng didn't speak, he just looked at him quietly.

It's fine if you get in your own car when you're on the run, but if you get in my car when you're sleeping, then I won't be able to sleep.

Seeing that Chu Sheng was staring at him without saying anything, Zhu Qing sighed, clearly understanding what he meant.

Chu Sheng ate a simple meal of steamed rice with cured pork, then took out his red and white bone bow and began practicing.

With his eagle-like eyes, he can see very far; he can clearly see the veins on a leaf even a kilometer away.

The range of the red and white bone bow perfectly covered everything within his sight.

This is also one of the hidden abilities of the Red and White Bone Bow. As long as he can see it, the Red and White Bone Bow can aim and increase its range.

As always, Chu Sheng stood on the roof of the Netherworld Bone Chariot, raised his bow, drew it, and the bowstring was as full as a full moon!
But at that moment, Chu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and a skull appeared in his sight.
