Doomsday Sequence Convoy: I can upgrade supplies

Chapter 137: Clues, Tricks, You're Sold Out and Still Have to Help Count the Money!
When everyone came over, Chu Sheng and the others knew that An Xi and they had already reached an agreement.

Hui got out of the car immediately and walked with a smile toward Xu An, who was standing at the front.

"Hello, I am the leader of this team."

Anxi finished her task and walked over to Ah Xin. The rest should be left to a professional like Hui.

Chu Sheng glanced at An Xi, who was standing in front of him, and patted her on the shoulder.

"What's going on now?"

Upon hearing this, An Xi turned to look at him, pondered for a moment, and said, "The other party didn't mean any harm. I was just expressing my idea of ​​us getting to know each other."

"They didn't say anything after that. We'll have to see what the captain says."

She prefers fighting with the Black Jade Bone Spear to communicating and negotiating with her opponent.

Hearing her words, Chu Sheng was speechless.

"Didn't you ask them if they had any extraordinary materials?"

"And weren't you and Ah Xin very curious about why they weren't attacked by the strange creatures? You didn't ask?"

An Xi shook her head. "I didn't ask."

"We'll know once the captain has finished talking it over."

Chu Sheng: "."

So you really were just a representative?

Unable to get any information, Chu Sheng walked behind Hui's team, his indifferent eyes scrutinizing the people behind Xu An.

A 30-year-old woman exuding intellectual charm, a bespectacled female college student who appears somewhat frail, and a 13- or 14-year-old girl.

Besides the three women, Chu Sheng glanced at the others.

A burly man in a vest, an old man with a cane, a somewhat gentle man, and a middle-aged man holding a brick.

Including Xu An, who was talking to Hui at the front, there were a total of eight people.

If nothing unexpected happens, the guard will be Xu An, the one at the very front who is talking to Hui.

As for the other seven sequences, Chu Sheng silently matched them in his mind, but he could only tell that the middle-aged man holding the brick should be the construction sequence.

The others were completely undetectable; these people showed no reaction whatsoever.

At this moment, Hui and Xu An reached an agreement.

"Then it's settled. Our convoy will rest outside today and continue our journey tomorrow."

Then, he changed the subject and continued, "By the way, there doesn't seem to be anything strange around here."

Do you know why?

"This..." Xu An hesitated for a moment and glanced back.

Hui coughed lightly, "I didn't mean anything by it. I just sensed that there was nothing strange around here, but something strange was catching up to our convoy 300 kilometers behind us."

"I was afraid of causing you trouble. After all, our convoy will only rest for one night before leaving, and these strange creatures won't be able to catch up with us."

"The Strange One has caught up?!" Xu An's eyes widened.
The people behind him also stared wide-eyed.

“Yes.” Hui pushed up his clear glasses and continued, “There aren’t many strange creatures, only about twenty.”

I rested around 1 or 2 pm yesterday. Did you really think it was just to get some rest and recover?
Yesterday, during her break, Ah Xin tried to use her abilities to erase the anger, but he stopped her immediately.

If we can't catch up with them in a short time, then let's give them some time.

His idea was to create pressure on the people inside the walled building by using the eeriness behind him.

As for whether these strange occurrences put pressure on their team, he could only say that the results of his calculations told him that there was absolutely no pressure.

Hui's words made Xu An hesitate, but behind him, the woman in her thirties with an intellectual air spoke up: "I am a scholar, this is my ability, seclusion."

"It can reduce the presence of the walled buildings. Unless you enter a certain area, you can't see or feel them."

"It also works against eerie things."

"So there aren't many strange things here."

"I see." Team Leader Hui nodded, then exchanged a glance with Chu Sheng.

"You'd better prepare early." Chu Sheng glanced at the group and said, "The strange creatures will follow the residual life force of our convoy."

"It seems you can't find a secluded spot here anymore."

Behind the intellectual woman, Xingzi looked at Chu Sheng's full head of silver hair, red eyes with green pupils, and his expressionless speech, and her heart skipped a beat.

"Um, could you stay a few more days?" Xingzi blushed slightly, not daring to look at Chu Sheng. "There are so many strange creatures, it's not easy for us to deal with them. If you could stay for a couple more days, we can work together to deal with these strange creatures."

"Sorry, we don't plan to stay too long, it's a bit hot," Hui said directly, exchanging another glance with Chu Sheng.

it is more than words.

Upon hearing his words, Xu An, Xingzi, and the intellectual woman were still taken aback when a gentle-looking man, grasping the key point, asked, "Is it a bit hot here?"

"Isn't the weather like this in other places?"

Chu Sheng had only uttered one word when he seemed to realize something and immediately shut up.

Hui coughed twice and said, "Excuse me, this is information from our team."

As he spoke, he pulled a notebook out of his pocket. "Actually, when the two teams meet, they exchange diaries, recording their experiences and any strange occurrences they encounter, in order to gain more information and intelligence."

“But you seem to have been here all along, so I can’t tell you because it’s not fair.” For the first time, Captain Hui played the bad cop, while Chu Sheng played the good cop, frowning. “Captain, let’s just give it to them.”

"No, equivalent exchange is the principle of the apocalypse!"

“I must get something of equal value in return for what I give; this is the price I pay for my sequence!” Hui’s expression turned serious.

Chu Sheng seemed to realize it belatedly, and gave an awkward smile. "Captain, I'm sorry, I almost forgot about your sequence cost."

The two of them spoke in unison, causing Xu An and the others to frown.

Xingzi's gaze toward Chu Sheng was already friendly, but now it shone with golden light.

"Hmm?" Anxi, who had been watching Ah Xin's conversation, suddenly frowned and looked at Xingzi.

"XiXi, it seems you've met your match."

"What opponent?" An Xi frowned and looked at her.

"Of course, someone is trying to steal Chu Sheng from you," Ah Xin whispered in her ear.

"I don't care about him at all!" An Xi frowned even more, but when she saw the amused expression on Ah Xin's face, she looked at Ah Xin's head.

"Hmm~" Ah Xin groaned softly, leaning weakly against An Xi, her face flushed.

"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll show you what I'm capable of!" An Xi said, raising her head and supporting Ah Xin.

"Good~"

Ah Xin's voice was a little weak, and the last syllable was drawn out.

The two didn't make any big movements, and the others only saw Ah Xin suddenly leaning against An Xi, but they didn't pay any attention.

Up ahead, Chu Sheng, upon hearing Xingzi's words, glanced at Captain Hui with feigned concern and said, "Captain, we..."

"In that case, let's stay here for a couple more days," Captain Hui said, deciding to call it quits. "After all, these strange creatures came with us."

Hearing his words, Xu An and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, my impression of him, who previously insisted on only providing intelligence through transactions, has changed considerably.

"They look pretty good," the burly man thought to himself as he watched Xu An from behind.

They also attributed the reason why Hui's team had refused to tell them the information to the cost of the sequence.

The costs of sequences are varied and strange, and it is not surprising that the cost must be met with an equivalent return.

Their eight sequences are extraordinary, and the costs associated with those sequences are equally varied.

Seeing that they were easy to talk to, Xu An tentatively asked, "Captain Zhang, Brother Chu Sheng, what do you think of our walled building?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the surrounding buildings behind him, "We built these ourselves, and with me as the guard, the supernatural can only enter through the main gate, and they generally can't find this place."

He spoke with a hint of pride on his face, and the people behind him also looked proud.

This is the peaceful place they built together.

As long as the food problem is solved, they can live here forever!

Upon hearing this, Hui smiled and said, "It's quite nice here."

"But you've been staying in one place all the time, and you can't farm here, so you probably don't have much food, right?"

Hearing his words, Xu An sighed. He now regarded Hui as someone who was also struggling to survive. "I won't hide it from you. In this awful weather, there's absolutely no way to farm."

“We don’t lack water, but no matter what we do, the seeds will always remain seeds and won’t sprout.”

At this point, he sighed again, "But that's how it is all over the world; at least staying here is more secure than migrating."

His words made Chu Sheng and the others look at them with some strange expressions.

Old Li, who was drinking behind him, paused and almost choked.

Only now did a smile appear on Chu Sheng's face.

We've gathered enough intelligence.

A bunch of bumpkins.

This was Chu Sheng's inner thought.

They benefited from this walled compound, but were also confined by it.

The existence of the walled buildings was their protection, but at the same time, it was also their confinement.

“This…” Hui looked at Xu An strangely, then coughed lightly, “I think you should exchange your diary for one here.”

"Although I would love to give it to you directly, due to my sequence cost limitations, I cannot give it to you. I must adhere to the principle of equivalent exchange."

"I can't tell you too much, but I can say that the contents of the diary and the information there will be very useful to you."

He paused, then gave Xu An and the people behind him a meaningful look, "If you want to live."

His words caused a change in the expressions of Xu An and the others.

Xu An didn't even try to recruit them again; instead, he frowned, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing their expressions, Chu Sheng coughed lightly, "Why not hold a trade fair?"

"We can exchange some of our belongings with each other."

"When the temperature drops a bit tonight, let's hold a trade fair. You can also trade our captain's diary entries. What do you think?"
