Wasteland: My items are infinitely upgraded.

Chapter 21 Heart knot, joining the gang, Lin Feng lv6
Hearing Chen Shanshan's mumbling question, Ding Yi was stunned. After hesitating for a moment, she decided to speak her mind:
"If a survivor who just woke up meets the captain, it would definitely be a good thing."

"But we can't just keep rescuing others unconditionally, especially the group of deserters at the back who are struggling on the brink of life and death every day. If we divide the already scarce food equally among everyone in the group, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the others."

"This is also the reason why Qi Shan and Tian Wanrong were able to encourage so many people to leave the team."

“No one wants to stay at the bottom.”

"If Lin Feng hadn't used himself as bait, pretending to be dead to lure out the Death Vulture, he and I might have both died in this crisis."

"The same thing happened later. He was the one who decided to kill Steppenwolf. I was inspired by him and decided to be the bait."

Having said that, Ding Yi took off his glasses, slowly stepped forward, and took the girl's hands:

"Being a good captain doesn't mean you can take care of everyone. Instead, you need to lead everyone and keep moving in a positive direction to become a qualified leader."

"When I was teaching, the ancients had this saying: cultivate yourself, regulate your family, govern the country, and bring peace to the world."

"A person needs to improve himself first, then build his own family, and finally have the extra ability to save others and even change the world."

"Captain, you grew up in comfort under the protection of your master, so you may be somewhat naive and simple in your view of things. However, this is a world of cannibalism, and human nature is very complex."

"It's not that what you did before was wrong, but you have to take care of yourself first and then practice your own ideas without sacrificing the interests of your companions."

"When you become the ruler of Oasis Town, you can provide all the inhabitants with enough fresh water every Holy Spring Day to improve their harsh living conditions."

"but now……"

"No."

Ding Yi spoke earnestly. Although she was weak, as a teacher, she had a very clear understanding of certain things.

Knowing that Lin Feng is the key to changing the fate of her and the entire team, she cannot allow Chen Shanshan's naivety and willfulness to cause the team to split again:

"We are able to survive and have what we have now, all thanks to Lin Feng's special abilities and his decisiveness."

"He acted decisively at crucial moments, unlike you, the captain, who is always indecisive and inactive..."

"If you can apply your combat style to your interpersonal relationships, perhaps you can become a qualified captain."

"But right now, Lin Feng is more suitable..."

After listening to Ding Yi's analysis and advice, Chen Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief. This has always been one of her concerns:

"Then leave these matters to Lin Feng from now on. I will only be responsible for the battles."

"If I ever encounter a situation where I really can't help it..."

Ding Yi smiled. She had only dared to say these words after she had understood Chen Shanshan's character. She was very pleased that the girl had made concessions. Her advice was not in vain.
"Don't worry, I will catch you in time."

"Besides, we are a team. If Lin Feng and I both agree on the decision based on a vote, you can't change it."

Chen Shanshan sighed lightly and relaxed:
"Lin Feng's strength will surpass mine sooner or later. When that happens, I will officially hand over the captaincy to him."

"By the way, what do you think, Liu brothers and sisters?"

When mentioning this, Ding Yi frowned slightly:
"Liu Qian is quite similar to you, Captain. She has also always lived under the wings of others and has not yet fully adapted to this wasteland world. The fact that there are people willing to protect her is enough to prove that Liu Mingfei is not a sinister villain like Qi Shan and others who will do anything to achieve their goals."

"If they want to join, as long as Lin Feng agrees, I have no objection."

Chen Shanshan nodded, then chuckled:
"You can't stop talking about Lin Feng now. Could it be that you've fallen in love with him?"

Ding Yi blushed and wanted to explain, but suddenly realized that there was nothing wrong with this.

So he admitted generously:
"Of course. He's tall, handsome, and powerful, able to survive in the wasteland like a duck in water. A man like this, captain, wouldn't you be attracted to him?"

"It's a pity that he probably doesn't think much of me. Tian Wanrong was so beautiful just now, but Lin Feng's eyes only had cold murderous intent. This man's willpower and execution are terrifyingly strong."

"Sooner or later, his figure will gradually fade away..."

"I just hope that before we part, I can find a good home under his reflection."

Ding Yi smiled faintly and cherished the present very much.

Chen Shanshan buried her face under the water. In fact, when she was rubbing Lin Feng's back just now, she felt something strange in her body, so she pretended to be impatient and left.

Looking back, maybe this is what Ding Yi said,
Like the feeling?
Cultivate oneself, manage the family...

"Hehe, you're blushing too! Don't hide in the water!"

Seeing that only Chen Shanshan's eyes were exposed and the lower half of her face was buried in the water, holding her breath, Ding Yi couldn't help but reach out and pinch her.

"We're almost done soaking, let's get some scrubbing!"

Chen Shanshan stood up suddenly and left the wooden barrel pool at a loss.

The sound of two people laughing and playing could be heard from the double room.

The bathhouse owner who was driving couldn't help but sigh:

"Youth~ Tsk, that boy's luck with women is so good, just like me back then..."

"What was that year?"

The proprietress's cold voice came from behind.

…………

Lin Feng returned to the bus hotel, entered the compartment and found the dried meat hidden by Ding Yi.

There were two separately preserved portions of red meat jerky inside.

It was ten kilograms of pork tenderloin for him and Chen Shanshan respectively.

Besides the heart, this is also the part of the rockhorn horse that is rich in energy and can bring strengthening effects.

Too lazy to ask Boss Huang to process them, Ding Yi had already roasted them in a solar oven. Lin Feng just tore into them and ate them, drinking the fresh water in the bottle and gobbling down more than four pounds of dried meat in one go.

As the stomach swells, a stream of heat from digestion flows through the body, starting a new strengthening process.

Lin Feng leaned against the headboard and closed his eyes to rest.

After taking a shower, I felt refreshed. With the fan on and a full stomach and drink, I was in a relaxed and empty state and soon fell into a light sleep.

When Lin Feng was awakened by the two women who came back, he looked at the alarm clock on the bed and found that two hours had passed.

"You actually took more than two hours to shower?"

Lin Feng said in surprise.

However, taking a bath is still effective. The two women in front of me look refreshed, as if a beauty filter has been added to wash away their past frowns.

Ding Yi, wearing glasses and with her long hair tied up in a high ponytail, has an intellectual beauty and exudes a professional temperament.

Chen Shanshan's strength and wildness are tinged with a touch of girlish playfulness.

"It's so rare to wash it, so of course I have to wash it clean."

Ding Yi picked up the washed old clothes.

"That's right, that's right, this guy already stinks, don't pay any attention to him."

Chen Shanshan stood aside and echoed.

He didn't know if it was an illusion, but Lin Feng felt that the two women in front of him seemed to have become different. They always looked around when they spoke, avoiding eye contact.

Not paying much attention, Lin Feng turned to look out of the corner of his eye:
"Lin Feng, lv6/9"

「生命值34，体质：34，精神：33；lv6各属性上限35」

"Item upgrade limit increased to level 6"

"You can upgrade the level 1 Hundred Bullet Pistol by consuming 5 health point."

Touched the gun and started upgrading.

At this time, the sliding door opposite the private room opened, and Liu Mingfei and his sister Liu Qian were seen standing in front of Lin Feng and others, looking a little restrained.

Just like that, their eyes met for more than ten seconds...

Seeing that the eldest brother was hesitant and unable to speak for a long time, Liu Qian stepped forward and said:
"My brother and I want to join you!"

"Any additional requirements?"

Lin Feng and the others looked at each other. Although they had been prepared for this, they were still surprised by Liu Qian's straightforwardness.

Since Ding Yi and Chen Shanshan had already discussed it privately, they both turned their gazes to the man still lying on the lower bunk.

All four people present looked at Lin Feng at once.

Lin Feng was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, he sat up and said:

"This time, we were able to successfully hunt the Level 9 Rock Wildebeest thanks to the two of you for your advice and guidance. Next time, there won't be such a good opportunity, so we'll need to show our true abilities."

"Liu Mingfei, after eating all that horse meat, you should have successfully strengthened to level nine, right?"

"Adding the captain and two level nine enhancers can make up for the lack of manpower."

"What are you good at?"

Liu Mingfei was stunned. He was just a taxi driver. Twelve hours a day, all he did was pick up and drop off passengers, bragging and cursing. We are all living hard.

Now that the end of the world has really come, we will be completely honest.

Liu Qian, who had been observing Lin Feng and the other two, realized that the group of barbarians in front of them seemed to be led by the weaker Lin Feng.

Although it was strange, it was a good thing for his siblings, so he took the initiative to introduce them:
"My brother has been driving a taxi for over a decade, so he knows a thing or two about how to handle motorcycle problems. Although he's not a professional mechanic like me, he can offer some advice on modifying a tricycle to help you avoid pitfalls and being scammed."

"I studied management accounting, so I can help with the team's inventory and daily arrangements, and so on, so I can help with planning."

"If there's other work that needs doing, I can learn it."

Lin Feng nodded. Liu Qian's introduction looked like a template for an interview. It was obvious that she was just an office worker.

In this wasteland world, it is considered good to find a normal teammate among the abandoned people. There is no need to be picky.

"Okay. But there's one more thing. Since we're a team, the points earned from selling the photovoltaic panels must be counted towards the team as a whole. The same goes for future hunting gains. They must be managed uniformly to purchase common supplies or upgrade equipment."

Liu Mingfei nodded, he understood this.

Many groups of barbarians are led by a single leader, or by a few extremely powerful leaders, forming a small group. The other followers are merely vassals, not only do they have no personal savings, but they also have to hand over the majority of their wealth upon joining the group...

In exchange for living space and team protection.

Seeing that the Liu brothers and sisters nodded in agreement and had no objection, Lin Feng immediately stood up and stepped forward, extending his hand and smiling:
"Welcome to join us, both of you."

"There are two things I need your help with now."

After shaking hands, Lin Feng pointed to the pile of dried meat beside him:

"Inventory the supplies, and then formulate a modification plan for the tricycle!"

"Get ready for the next hunting trip."

　Every time I write a heart-to-heart talk, I always have the illusion of setting a goal and then getting killed later. And the endings of wasteland-style stories always seem to be bad.
