Chapter 139
Chapter 139
A small town is a small town after all, it is not a fortress, and the low city walls cannot really protect the residents living inside.
The castle can only protect the vampires from the sun. After all, the number of guards is limited, and the guards during the day are all human races who are not afraid of the sun. As long as they act during the day, Ye Zhou thinks that they will not encounter too much danger.
After arranging the left-behind employees, he left the supermarket with most of the adults.
The only "child" in the team was Sarah.
Originally, Ye Zhou didn't want to take Sarah out with her. Not long after she left that hell, she would inevitably feel hurt when she went back again.
But Sarah insisted on going together, even throwing and rolling on the ground.
It's true Sapo rolling, although the rolling is not very proficient, and the expression on his face is a little stiff, not only does it not cause headaches, but also makes people want to laugh, but Sarah has shown this attitude, and Ye Zhou ordered head.
After all, although Sarah's mind is not strong, she has enough combat power to not hold her back.
Ye Zhou kept holding the walkie-talkie as he headed towards the town. Although he was able to contact Zou Ming in the past few days, because the distance was too far, the voice from the walkie-talkie was either noisy or intermittent.
Now the distance between him and Zou Ming is getting closer, and the voice of the walkie-talkie is becoming more and more clear.
When he was standing on the hillside where he and Zou Ming were observing the town together, the sound of the intercom had disappeared.
Ye Zhou could tell from Zou Ming's voice that he should be staying in a closed room now, and he could hear a less obvious echo.
"Did you find it?" Ye Zhou asked in a low voice.
Zou Ming paused for a moment, with helplessness in his tone: "Zhou Yuanhe has a fever."
"I took antipyretics, but I still haven't recovered. I can't take him to find him."
Ye Zhou: "..."
Zou Ming and Zhou Yuanhe climbed over the wall and entered the city at night, so that the residents would not find them. The vampires in the castle are all "nobles" and will not personally patrol the town. They only need to find places that the guards would not easily visit. Night is not necessarily dangerous.
It's just that sneaking into the castle needs to be during the daytime, but daytime is the time when the townspeople are active. Zou Ming can say it alone, but Zhou Yuanhe is sick, and Zou Ming really wants to abandon Zhou Yuanhe - he didn't say it clearly, but Ye Zhou can do it from There was strong disgust in his tone.
Zhou Yuanhe's illness is not serious, the fever has subsided now, it's just that he is easily in a trance due to lack of energy.
"Let him come out that night." Ye Zhou said to Zou Ming, "Let him go back to the supermarket to recuperate."
Zou Ming let out a "hmm".
Ye Zhou: "I brought a fluorescent lamp, but I don't know if it will be useful. Sarah is also here. She doesn't want to stay in the supermarket."
"A quick fix. I'll settle everything tonight. If I don't make money, I don't know when it will be delayed."
Zou Ming has no objection.
The employees who followed Ye Zhou here also had no objections.
The employees don't care whether the lives of the townspeople here will be destroyed because of their arrival, let alone the life and death of those blood slaves. They only know that this is part of their job, and it is enough to obey the fairy's words.
They have no sense of mission to save anyone.
This time, Ye Zhou brought out not only fluorescent lamps, but also time bombs that could make a big noise. According to his idea, if the guards and townspeople were attracted during the day, it would be much less difficult for them to enter the castle. The minions and the guards are back, but they've got the vampires under control, and there's nothing more to fear.
When Wu Yan and the others went to plant the bomb, Sarah looked at the small town down the hill with a blank expression.
This was the first time she had seen the whole town with her own eyes—it was so small, and the grand and extravagant castle in her impression looked like a small thing that could be stepped on at this moment.
Ye Zhou was also looking at the town, but his angle was quite different from Sarah's.
From a business point of view, the geographical position of this small town is actually very good. Because of the Duchess' territory, there are no rival towns nearby, that is to say, no local officials will come to control it.
What Ye Zhou fears most when doing business is not greedy people, but stupid people.
What if local officials don't see the benefits that supermarkets can bring, and are simply afraid to go to war with the supermarkets because they are afraid of getting out of their control?
Ye Zhou is not afraid of hitting him, if he can't beat him, he will run away, and return to any previous plane.
But if he can't earn the money within the goal, he can't unlock new functions of the system, nor can he unlock new planes.
What Ye Zhou needs is a place where he can make money safely. Thinking about it this way, this small town actually has its advantages. There is no supervision, there are many farmers around, and there are many travelers passing by this small town. It should be a important transportation hub.
He even found a suitable place to open a shop in the town - the castle is not very good, it is located in the middle of the town, many travelers will not enter the city at all, they will only ask if they can buy some food and water at the edge of the city, the supermarket is the best It can be driven in places where travelers can see but cannot see the whole picture.
Wu Yan and the others found a place that was open and flat, far away from crowd gathering places, and planted the bomb. After making all the preparations, Ye Zhou and the others could only wait for Zou Ming to send Zhou Yuanhe out.
After getting ready, the group started to do nothing. Cao'er even brought backgammon, but it's a pity that Sarah has no interest in backgammon at all. No matter how Cao'er coaxes her, Sarah is unwilling to learn to play a game with her.
Knowing that night fell, Ye Zhou only took Chen Shu to the wall where he and Zou Ming left the town before.
Just like Zou Ming did before, Ye Zhou threw a rope in from the outside.
The rope was pulled twice, and he knew that Zou Ming and the others had come.
After all, the guards found out that the rope would not be pulled twice regularly.
Sure enough, the person who was tied to the rope this time was Zhou Yuanhe. When Zhou Yuanhe landed, he was still in a daze. His face was pale and he was sweating profusely.
Ye Zhou stretched out his hand to support Zhou Yuanhe, Zhou Yuanhe grabbed Ye Zhou's shoulders, half hung on him, and said feebly, "Boss, I messed up."
He didn't expect that he would be so weak. Although his health was not good, it was not so bad.
Ye Zhou didn't blame him either. No one wanted to get sick. He patted Zhou Yuanhe's back and comforted him, "It's nothing. No one never gets sick."
"Boss, let me support him." Chen Shu glanced at the wall, she immediately stretched out her hand, and "snatched" Zhou Yuanhe over before Ye Zhou could speak.
Ye Zhou: "..."
Although it is a good thing for everyone to rush to do things, he is not so expensive that he can't do it even if he can help others, right?
Before Ye Zhou could ask, Zou Ming had already climbed over the city wall.
He glanced at Zhou Yuanhe who was being supported by Chen Shu, with no expression on his face, he turned to Ye Zhou and said, "Tomorrow morning or afternoon?"
Ye Zhou thought for a while: "Morning."
People have the best energy in the morning, and they can detect the slightest disturbance. When the explosion sounds, most of the townspeople should be able to hear it. As long as half of the people leave the town, they will be more than half successful.
When the time comes to mix in the crowd, the possibility of being discovered is very small. Even if you are discovered, it will be easier to escape in the chaos.
Because they can't enter the town now, there are too many of them, and all of them can only camp on the spot. They go deep into the jungle to build tents and cook.
This time there were a lot of people, so they brought a lot of things, so there was no need to light a fire. They brought self-heating food.
As night fell, Ye Zhou got into the tent after eating. There was only a limited amount of flat land to pitch a tent on, so even if you had enough tents, you could only squeeze two people into one.
Just as Ye Zhou got in and sat down, he saw Zou Ming coming in after him.
Now no one would ask, everyone defaulted that Zou Ming would live in a tent with Ye Zhou.
"You haven't encountered any danger in the past few days, have you?" Ye Zhou took off his coat. Under his coat, he was only wearing a white short sleeve. His exposed arms looked thin but strong. Ever since he started trading between planes, his body The flesh that was originally soft is now much firmer.
Six pack abs without clothes.
The lack of eight yuan is not because Ye Zhou didn't exercise enough, but because this thing is born, some people have eight yuan, and some people only have six yuan after practicing.
Ye Zhou felt that six packs was enough for him, and he didn't know how many male compatriots he had to look down upon with six packs.
Zou Ming: "No, Zhou Yuanhe is sick, we have been staying indoors."
They quickly found a place to stay outside the small town. Usually, no one came in or out of the abandoned house. At most, the nearby neighbors came in to find some discarded firewood and took it back to make a fire, and they would not go up to the second floor.
Zou Ming frowned slightly: "I shouldn't have brought him along."
Ye Zhou knew Zou Ming's temper.
Although Zou Ming doesn't say anything, he wants to be perfect no matter what he does, preferably to the extent that no one else can do it.
Ye Zhou used to think that Zou Ming had obsessive-compulsive disorder, but later he discovered that Zou Ming's temper was limited to the tasks he gave him.
Ye Zhou was a little moved.
He looked into Zou Ming's eyes: "No one would have thought that he would suddenly get sick before going out, but that's fine. I'm still worried about the two of you moving. There is a distance limit on the walkie-talkie. I don't know if something happened to you. When the time comes trouble."
"To me, your safety is more important than making money. As long as you have goods, you can make money. It's just a matter of time. There's no need to gamble with your safety." Ye Zhou put his hand on Zou Ming's shoulder, Pressed down.
Zou Ming opened his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't say it. In the end, he just nodded slightly.
"Go to sleep, there is nothing to do tomorrow."
·
The horned man wakes up very early, he always does this, every day he wakes up when the rooster crows, and he can only sleep after falling asleep.
He rubbed his eyes, wiped off the gum, and picked up the wet cloth hanging beside him and wiped his face as if he had washed it.
The half-orc had thick calluses on the soles of his feet, and he didn't need to wear shoes like humans. He yawned, and the thin quilt was put aside, and he squinted his eyes to find food. If he didn't eat in the morning, he couldn't last until the afternoon.
The tiger-eared man came in with a piece of black bread, broke it into two pieces of about the same size, handed one piece to the horned man, and yawned, saying, "Recently, the amount of bread is getting less and less."
The horned man nodded, and he ate half of the bread with the well water. The tiger-eared man looked at him and said mockingly: "Don't think about it, that man must have run away, he was just lying to you."
The bull-horned man didn't speak. He glanced at the tiger-eared man, curled his lips and said, "He might still be thinking about it..."
The tiger-eared man rolled his eyes: "If he was thinking about it, would he still run away? Even if he wants to come back later, he won't be able to come back."
"Don't think that if he gives you a good face, he thinks highly of you." The tiger-eared man knocked on the table, "No human race thinks highly of us. In their eyes, we are just livestock, not human beings at all."
The horned man glared at him, but didn't answer, knowing that the two of them would definitely quarrel if they continued.
"Let's go, go to work." The horned man stood up and walked towards the door.
They have to cross three streets to reach the oil mill. The oil mill is not big, with only two thatched huts. The oil is extracted entirely by manpower. The bean cakes are wrapped in straw, and then hit with solid wood. The oil output is not high, so even if All the people working in the oil mill tried their best, but they still couldn't provide soybean oil to everyone in the town.
And they can't share the oil themselves.
Those who will work here are the lowest races, there are orcs, dwarves and goblins, but looking around, there is no human race in sight.
The man with horns walked into the oil mill under the invitation of others.
The environment in the oil press is not good, not to mention the wind from all sides, and there is a layer of sticky grease on the ground. Walking through it, the feet seem to be glued to the ground.
Silently picking up the bumper, the horned man suddenly turned his head and glanced out.
There was a light rain outside again, and the rain was brought in by the wind and splashed on his face, causing him to be in a trance for a moment.
"Why are you in a daze?!" the supervisor shouted at him.
The horned man immediately went to work.
His arms are sore, every day, but he has no time to rest, he has not "contributed" new people to the Duke for many days, and the people he recruited before escaped, so not only did he not get rewarded, but he was punished.
He has to work when others are working, and he still has to work when others are resting.
The horned man didn't understand why that man wanted to escape, isn't it good here?
Here, as long as the human race continues to absorb newcomers, even if they don't work, they can still get food.
But although he couldn't figure it out and felt sorry, he didn't resent the other party.
The other party's clothes were neat and tidy, his back was straight, and he spoke softly.
He has seen such a person before, but he can only take a look from a distance, and such a person will always be surrounded.
The horned man worked in silence.
That person must have a good background, maybe a nobleman in the human race, it is normal not to want to stay here.
The horned man sighed.
"boom!!--"
The horned man was taken aback, the bumper fell from his hand and hit his feet, he looked out in a panic.
Many people poured out on the street, and the townspeople heard a loud bang just as they went out when they heard another bang.
This time it was louder and lasted longer.
"What happened?!"
"The ground is shaking! Run!"
"Run!!"
I don't know who yelled, and the townspeople panicked. Many of them ran towards the gate of the city without even putting on their clothes. People crowded and shoved.
The horned man was stunned, he didn't know what happened.
Until the scorpion grabbed his hand and shouted at him amidst the noise: "Don't be dazed! Run! The ground is shaking! You can't stay in the city!"
The horned man followed the tiger-eared man and ran out in a daze.
The rain became heavier, and the bean-sized raindrops hit the horned man's face and body. For some reason, he suddenly felt very flustered.
Some even breathless.
He looked at the back of the tiger-eared man's head, and suddenly thought.
If they leave this town, can they survive?
