Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 124 Hidden Weapon
Yao Wei gave Chai Xin a backpack containing a can of food, several pieces of chocolate, and several compressed biscuits.

There were two external bags on both sides of the backpack. Yao Wei stuffed two bottles of mineral water into them and gave them to Chai Xin.

This backpack belonged to the new human they met in Mengxin City. When Lu Xian and Yao Wei killed the new human at the edge of the jungle, he was carrying this backpack. Now it was just the right gift for Chai Xin.

After packing these things, Yao Wei went to the cornfield and picked several ears of corn without hesitation, peeled the husks, cleaned the corn silk, stuffed them into the backpack, and filled the backpack with these things.

The old man, Lao Shu, was also very happy about this and took the initiative to help pick the corn. After all, he was going to go with him, and the corn was Chai Xin's food, but it was also his food at the same time.

There was still a lot of corn in the field, and the old man didn't want to let anyone else get it for free. After filling Chai Xin's backpack, he said, "Do you want to take the rest? If we leave it here, who knows who will get it for free?"

"You don't know who you'll poison to death, right?"

Lu Xian smiled and gave the saddlebag he had made for Gouzi to Lao Shu, saying, "Here, this is for you. Hang it up."

We can't let Chai Xin carry all the things along the way alone; the old man has to do some of the heavy lifting too.

Anyway, although his body is not as good as Chai Xin's in the past, he is not an ordinary person. He can carry heavy things and travel long distances.

The saddlebag originally prepared for the dog had not been used since the dog got on the car. Now it was taking up some space in the car, so it was just right for the old man to use.

"thanks, thanks!"

The old man was so happy that he hung the sack around his neck, then broke off several ears of corn and stuffed them into the sack.

The two green mineral water bottles were also stuffed in.

He was covered with a lot of things that looked out of place, but it actually complemented his strange appearance.

"I'll pack more. We can't eat all this corn. We need to leave some for seeds when we go to the new place to try planting."

He muttered to himself as he stuffed corn into his bag.

Lu Xian finally understood why this man had been able to maintain his ability to speak for decades. He must have loved talking to himself like this.

"Can this corn be used as seed?"

Lu Xian asked the old tree.

The old tree said firmly, "Yes! I've tried it before, and it works. I told you long ago that this corn is different from the previous varieties!"

Lu Xian thought that if he introduced Lao Shu to Luo Ping, it would probably have a much greater effect than Chai Xin.

I just don't know if there is any way to solve the problem of toxins in corn that are harmful to ordinary people in Luoping?
Yao Wei gave Chai Xin his bow again and put two more arrows in the quiver, replacing the two that were broken and tied up.

As for the pistol, Lu Xian originally planned to give one to Chai Xin. Anyway, he had been using a submachine gun recently and didn't have much use for the gun.

But Chai Xin said that she didn't know how to use it, and it would be better for her to just hold the bow and arrow, so Lu Xian had to give up.

Chai Xin was still obsessed with the two broken arrows.

She put the quiver close to her backpack and said to Yao Wei, "Sister, you don't need to give me so many good arrows. Just give me the ones I used before. They're pretty good for me. And the two broken ones."

Yao Wei said, "Those two are broken, how can we use them smoothly?"

Chai Xin said: "But it just works for me. I don't use a bow, I just throw the two arrows directly. Although the force is not as strong as a bow, it is very fast and accurate at close range, which is amazing.

"If you don't believe me, bring it to me and I'll show you how to use it."

When Lu Xian heard what Chai Xin said, his eyes suddenly lit up. This girl was indeed a fellow traveler like him.

"Give it to her and try it."

He spoke to Yao Wei.

So Yao Wei had no choice but to give the two broken arrows to Chai Xin. Chai Xin took them and threw them casually. The arrows made a "nail" sound and the tip of the arrow was nailed to a tree, most of it embedded in the tree.

"what?!"

Chai Xinqing exclaimed "Huh!" and said in surprise, "My strength seems to have increased a lot!" Old Tree stared at him with wide eyes and praised enthusiastically: "Amazing! Amazing!"

"Of course, he's a new human after all."

Lu Xian said with a smile, pulled out the arrow and handed it back to Chai Xin.

Chai Xin happily accepted it, a hint of pride between her brows. She wanted to return the two extra arrows Yao Wei had given her, but Yao Wei refused.

"I use my gun more often, so these arrows are enough. You're going to travel on foot, so it's more important to have more arrows in case of emergency."

Yao Wei said so.

Chai Xin was touched, but he didn't know what to say. He opened his mouth but couldn't speak.

Lu Xian also gave Chai Xin two knives, a wrench, and a key.

After so many experiences on the road, he has collected a lot of small bits and pieces in his car.

The knife and wrench both came from Tongzhou County, Mengxin City. When the drone flew into the gas station for investigation, someone threw bricks, wrenches and knives at it, but missed. Later, these things were picked up and put into the car.

The key came from outside Fengcheng County, Yubei City. Someone was chasing them in a car, and Yao Wei shot and blew up the tire of the car, killing the person. Later, Lu Xian pulled out the key from the car, thinking that he could use it as a hidden weapon.

Now it can be given to Chai Xin for use.

"This is?"

Chai Xin couldn't understand it for a moment.

Lu Xian said: "This is what I collected along the way, all of which I intend to use as hidden weapons. Since you are good at throwing things, I can give these things to you to use as hidden weapons.

"I have other things, but they're not suitable for you. Although your strength has increased a little, it's still far behind mine. Those things are only suitable for people like me who can perform miracles with great strength. Just make do with these."

"Uh-huh."

Chai Xin smiled and nodded quickly, saying, "That's enough!"

Lu Xian added: "When you go there, you can take a look first. If you feel it is not suitable, you can also come back here invisibly. The situation here may be worse, but it is still okay to survive."

Chai Xin nodded again: "Okay."

There was no sadness in the parting. Lu Xian and Yao Wei waved goodbye as soon as they should, and Chai Xin also carried her schoolbag, quiver and her bow, and left as soon as she should, very decisively.

Instead, the old tree looked back several times, looking longingly at his cornfield and the place where he slept under the tree.

Meetings and partings in the doomsday are just as they should be. Everyone comes and goes in a hurry, all for survival. Why should there be so much entanglement?
But after Lao Shu and Chai Xin walked away to the east and disappeared on the horizon, Lu Xian suddenly sighed and said, "Should we send Chai Xin off and send her to Luo Ping?"

But Yao Wei shook her head and said, "I'm afraid that after I go to the secret base in Luoping, I won't want to leave. When I was in the shelter in Fengcheng County, I was already a little reluctant to leave..."

"Ah."

Lu Xian nodded to show his understanding.

He actually didn't want to leave at that time.

The two of them fell into silence as they watched the sun rising higher and higher. After a long time, Yao Wei turned around and saw that Lu Xian was still silent. She asked, "Are you still thinking about sending Chai Xin?" If Lu Xian insisted, she felt that she would compromise.

But Lu Xian shook his head and said, "After watching Chai Xin's demonstration just now, I feel inspired."

"what?"

Yao Wei asked.

Lu Xian replied: "I think I shouldn't play with guns. Hidden weapons are my destiny."
