Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 30 Gifts
The man completed the transaction, but he had no intention of leaving. He continued to shout with a grin, saying, "Sister, you are really beautiful and kind-hearted. What a good person!"

After that, he didn't forget to mention Lu Xian: "Big brother too."

Lu Xian smiled and replied, "You should be the eldest brother. You look older than me. The eldest brother is also cool and friendly, which is rare in this world."

The man waved his hand and said, "When I'm traveling around the world, everyone I meet is called Big Brother. My name is Luo Ping. I don't know how to address you, Big Brother or Big Sister?"

Lu Xian said: "I'll tell you next time."

"Big brother is really cautious."

The man, Luo Ping, smiled and didn't seem to care. He said, "It's hard to advance or retreat from this place now. Where are you planning to go?"

Yao Wei stood in front of Luo Ping and had already put the drone and remote control back into the car.

When she saw Lu Xian speak, she stopped talking.

The transaction has been completed. She is not very good at this kind of conversation, so it is better to leave it to Lu Xian.

Anyway, Lu Xian is better at communication than her and can always find something to say.

If it weren’t for Lu Xian before, I probably wouldn’t know how to start communicating with Lu Xian until now, right?

Lu Xian didn't answer, but threw the question back: "What about you, what are you going to do?"

Luo Ping still didn't care about Lu Xian's question and said, "What else can I do? Of course I have to find a place to hide for a while.

“This place is so big, no matter how many of them there are, it won’t be enough, so they can only guard the road and wait for us.

"Let's hold on for a few more days. They can't afford to waste time. They'll have to send people to find supplies."

Lu Xian nodded: "That makes sense, then what?"

"Then, if the situation is right, leave immediately."

Luo Ping grinned at Lu Xian and Yao Wei with his uneven teeth showing. This guy seemed to always like to smile and use this way to express friendliness.

"Big brother and big sister, how about we go together?"

He suddenly added, "I have a secret base in the south, it's an absolutely great place with lots of treasures.

If you look at my car and the things I brought you, you will know that survival is definitely not a problem there.

"Once we're done hiding here, you can come back with me and enjoy yourself!"

Lu Xian asked: "If there is such a good place, why don't you stay inside and run out?"

Luo Ping shook his head and said, "It's unspeakable. It's unspeakable."

Lu Xian said: "Sorry, we don't mean to team up with anyone."

After saying that, he asked Yao Wei to get in the car with him.

Luo Ping hurriedly pressed on, "You really won't consider it? Everything I said is true! I'm not lying!"

Lu Xian started to talk nonsense: "Forget it, we like to travel around and don't plan to settle down."

Luo Ping said happily: "Big brother really loves to joke."

Who can love traveling these days? Even a madman wouldn't dare to have such a hobby.

"Okay, let's say goodbye now. See you later."

Lu Xian also imitated the saying "everyone you meet is a big brother" and said something, then put the car in gear and stepped on the accelerator, ready to set off. But Luo Ping shouted, "Wait a minute." He quickly went back to the car, took something out, threw it in through the passenger window, and said, "You are good people, I will give you two more things for free.

"Four brand new AA batteries, enough to keep your remote running for a long time! And there's a good book with a lot of information in it. You can learn from it and have some new ways to entertain yourself."

The passenger seat window was open and not rolled up, so the thing Luo Ping threw in fell directly into Yao Wei's hands.

The battery was indeed brand new and was wrapped in a hard plastic transparent wrapper.

Yao Wei only glanced at the book and quickly threw it to the back row, not daring to look at it any further.

Lu Xian glanced at him out of the corner of his eye and laughed.

The book that Yao Wei threw to the back row had lost its cover, but the contents were actually a full-color comic.

A page of the comic strip is divided into four panels, in which handsome men and beautiful women are fighting fiercely, making Yao Wei blush.

This guy named Luo Ping really has a lot of cool stuff. Could it be that the treasures in his secret base are mostly these things?

Yao Wei has always been frugal and unwilling to waste. Even if the book she just held was disgusting, she did not choose to throw it out of the window, but threw it to the back row.

Lu Xian planned to wait until he stopped the car and observe carefully.

There are so few things in this world that can be used for entertainment. It is rare to get one, so I cannot waste it and just treat this spiritual food as firewood to start a fire.

"What should we do next? Should we head west to take a look, or should we listen to Luo Ping and find a place to hide first?"

Lu Xian asked.

Yao Wei pondered for a moment and said, "Hide first. What if what he said is true?"

Lu Xian nodded: "That's right, it's better to be safe than sorry. If what that guy said is true, and we turn back to the west, we will have to help him attract firepower again."

Yao Wei couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Lu Xian. This guy has been talking in a set way since the beginning, as if he was infected by that guy named Luo Ping.

Lu Xian thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we go back to the shelter? Let's hide there for a few days and see what happens.

"It's not only safe there, but we don't have to worry about consuming supplies, so it's a perfect place to stay.

"There's a shortage of water there, but it's next to a reservoir. We have drones now, so we can use them to check and, after confirming there's no danger, fetch some water back.

"Luo Ping has just been blocked. The people in the county are not in the same group as the Liangshui Village that Luo Ping mentioned. They shouldn't get the news so quickly. Let's be careful. We still have time to return and hide."

Yao Wei had no objection, nodded, and said, "Okay."

The two agreed, made up their minds, and drove back immediately.

Yao Wei looked at the map and found a country road to avoid the blockade of the Liangshui Village forces.

They did not go west, but returned east. In fact, it was difficult to surround Liangshui Village in a short time.

After all, they had just left the county town not long ago. If they went further east, they would be in the territory of the group of people in the county town. Before reaching a cooperation, Liangshui Village should not cross the border too much.

There was enough gas in the car, and Lu Xian drove along the bumpy country roads, not only avoiding the people in Liangshui Village, but also bypassing Fengcheng County and Gaojiazhuang Village.

I wonder if the group of people in Gaojiazhuang Village are in the same group as those in the county?

They soon arrived at the entrance of Tan Village. As before, the two drove through the village first, checked around, and after confirming it was safe, they turned into the corridor between two houses at the entrance of Tan Village and stopped behind one of the houses.

After getting out of the car, Lu Xian took a look at the house and suddenly had a new idea: "How about we smash a hole in the back wall of this house and back the car in?
"There's a hillside behind us, and we can't see anything on either side. Even if someone comes, they won't be able to see us."
