On the back of her small iron plate, a logo was printed.
On top of the blue primer, white paint was used to spray a pattern like a three-petal flower with an eye in the middle of the petal.
Even if a small part was cut off due to the cutting of the iron sheet, it could still be clearly seen, this was undoubtedly the sign Lu Xingchi said.
The small iron plate has rough edges and a sloppy shape, obviously made of scrap iron.
Bei Nuan had already noticed that the back of the piece of iron he was hanging was a piece of white paint, and the back of Lu Xingchi's piece was blue paint with a few white lines on it.
Looking at the thickness and texture of the iron plate, it should all come from the same iron sheet.
And this part of the spoon happens to have that logo printed on the back.
This is really breaking the iron shoes, it turns out that it is hidden under the nose.
Bei Nuan hurried out and called Lu Xingchi, who was waiting outside the door, and the others.
After Lu Xingchi came in, he took the iron plate of the small spoon and looked at it. He pondered for a moment and asked, "These iron plates must be made by Lao Hu, right?"
The small spoon replied: "Yes, he said, he used scrap iron to cut it. His kind of iron is the only one on the island. No one else has it, so there is no way to imitate it."
It's still fake.
Jiang Fei had already turned to leave, "Let's go see that old Hu again."
A few people visited Bei Nuan all over the island yesterday, and they wanted to turn the whole island over. Now they are much more familiar with the maze-like big cave, and they are familiar with it.
Lao Hu was still in the empty cave last time.
It's just that he didn't play cards with anyone else this time, and he was the only one in the cave.
He was slumped in his chair like mud, drinking from a stainless steel cup for drinking water, he was half drunk, his eyes were empty and blurred, staring at the top of the cave in a daze.
The wine is probably the kind made by the island itself, and the taste is very strong and can be smelled from afar.
Seeing Lu Xingchi and the others coming in, he asked in a daze, "Are you okay?"
"Well. I have something to ask you."
Lu Xingchi raised his hand, and his iron plate was dangling from his slender fingers.
"You made this thing?"
Lao Hu drank a lot of wine, glanced at the brand, and didn't take Lu **ss seriously at all.
He was busy drinking and didn't care about Lu Xingchi. He reached out and picked up the glass, "Did I do it, why should I tell you?"
Lu Xing was silent.
The cup in Lao Hu's hand suddenly dropped.
As if being snatched away by someone, the cup flew into the air by itself, and then hovered.
As if there was an invisible and violent hand, it crumpled the good cup into a pitiful ball in three or two strokes.
The remaining wine in the glass was squeezed out with a puff and splashed all over Lao Hu like it was raining.
"I have limited patience."
Lu Xingchi still held the sign in his hand with his fingers and asked again, "You made this thing?"
This time, even if Lao Hu was drunk, he knew that something extraordinary had happened before him, and he didn't dare to provoke Lu Xingchi again.
He was stunned for a moment before saying, "I made it all by myself."
"Where did the iron sheet you use for this come from?"
Lu Xingchi shook the iron card again.
Lao Hu mobilized his brain, which was heavily anesthetized by alcohol, and thought hard.
"It's a box in the warehouse. There are a lot of empty boxes like this in the warehouse. I took out a few and made several boxes of iron cards, but they haven't been distributed yet."
"Do you have any empty boxes left?" Lu Xingchi asked.
"have."
Lu Xingchi didn't speak, and glanced at him with a look of "have you given it to me?"
Lao Hu quickly stood up.
He was drunk and could not stand still, trying to maintain his balance, staggered to the wall, and dragged out an iron box from the place where the curtains were placed to put the sundries.
The iron box is blue, with white stripes painted in places.
Bei Nuan saw the sign Lu Xingchi said at a glance. The logo is painted on the corner of the box, with a few letters and lines of small print beside it.
Lu Xingchi squatted down and turned the iron box over and over to examine it carefully.
"It turned out to be humanitarian aid." Lu Xingchi told Bei Nuan and the others, "It was donated by an organization called lbd."
"Have you heard of this lbd?" Lu Xingchi raised his head and asked Lao Hu.
Lao Hu sat back in the chair with difficulty, trying to open his eyes red with alcohol, "Huh?"
Lu Xingchi changed his question, "Have the island received humanitarian aid before?"
This old man knows.
"There are floods in this place every year. Once in the past two years, the storm was so strong that the salt river burst its banks, flooding the fields grown in many places."
Bei Nuan knew about this, and it was written in the book that N country had suffered disasters.
Lao Hu continued: "After the flood receded that year, there was famine everywhere, and a lot of people died. Later, some people brought a lot of food for them."
Lao Hu thought about it for a while, and suddenly figured it out.
"I remembered, this kind of box seems to have been shipped that time, right? The other boxes were all cardboard, which was useless, and they were all thrown away. Only this one is particularly good. It's been sitting in the warehouse."
Lu Xingchi asked, "When they donated things, did they also donate cars?"
Old Hu said strangely, "Yes, I donated two cars, saying they were used for rebuilding. How do you know?"
This makes sense.
The logo on the iron plate and the logo on the van are all like this.
Lu Xingchi asked, "Have you ever dealt with organizations that donate things?"
"No," Lao Hu said, "These things are all distributed and distributed by local charitable organizations. They say that there are big companies in many countries or something. Knowing that we donated them from the disaster, we just accept them. I don't even know who it is."
It seems that they just made a mistake and got the things of this institution.
Lu Xingchi had been observing him carefully and knew that he was not lying.
After getting the information he wanted, Lu Xingchi relaxed and interrogated for a while, but couldn't find anything useful.
What he cares about is what kind of institution this lbd is.
Bei Nuan thought to herself, it's a pity that I can't surf the Internet, otherwise I want to know what this lbd is, just search the Internet and solve it in minutes.
As for the sign, Lao Hu couldn't ask any more questions here, and Lu Xingchi began to interrogate him.
"What's the matter with your iron card? How are these abcdefs divided?"
Lao Hu's eyes suddenly panicked.
He took a peek at the stainless steel mug that had long since fallen on the table, crumpled up like waste paper, and stuttered more than he had just answered the box's question.
"I didn't come up with this, it was Master Qiu's idea."
"Oh?" Lu Xingchi said in a relaxed tone, "Why did he put signs for the laborers?"
Lao Hu's wine has almost woken up.
This morning, news came out on the island that Qiu Zhengxun died unexpectedly in the casino, and now his younger brother Qiu Ji is in power.
Old Hu speculated for a moment.
Qiu Zhengxun is already dead, even if all his ideas are called out now, it should be fine, right
Tell the truth, old man.
"Master Qiu said that there is now a shortage of people on the island to work, and more and more workers are recruited."
"But there are too few people in our group. With such a small number of people, it is difficult to control so many people, and we can't delegate power to them and let them manage by themselves, for fear that they will make trouble."
"Master Qiu came up with an idea. He said that the easiest way is to divide them."
Bei Nuan understood.
Qiu Zhengxun used only a small broken iron plate to divide the laborers on the island into three, six, and nine ranks.
From a to f, they do not cooperate and communicate with each other, forming a perfect chain of contempt, and they do not like each other.
AB looks down on CD, CD looks down on EF, and conversely, EF does not dare to provoke CD, CD does not dare to provoke AB, but he may not hate them in his heart.
This group of people with signs to eat cassava, although the number is large, is useless.
They are busy that you despise me and I hate you, so Qiu Zhengxun can continue to sit back and relax.
This Master Qiu has a very sinister intention.
With the speed of spreading rumors on the island, as long as a few samples are made at random, a little mystery can be added to the iron card, so that everyone is convinced of the authority of the iron card.
Lu Xingchi continued to ask, "That's it? You haven't finished yet."
Old Hu shuddered severely, raised his eyes and peeked at Lu Xingchi.
Lu Xingchi's attitude is leisurely, but his pale eyes are cold, as if he can see through everything.
Old Hu murmured and hesitated for a long time before continuing to explain.
"Master Qiu also said that there used to be strong winds and heavy rains every summer. If the storm was big, the land we planted might be destroyed, and there would be famine again."
"This year there are zombies everywhere. Even if there is a famine, no outside aid will come in, so put up a sign for the laborers..."
This time even Bei Nuan shuddered.
Lao Hu continued.
"When he asked me to go to the island as a laborer, he would give the A card to those who could work, and the F card to the old, weak, sick, and singles who came to the island without family members. If there is a famine, Just from…”
Lao Hu gave Lu Xingchi a frightened look, his voice was very low, "...start from the F card..."
Bei Nuan bit her lip.
Lu Xingchi caught a glimpse and interrupted Lao Hu.
"It's too stuffy in the cave, you guys go out and wait for me outside."
Du Ruo put his hand on Bei Nuan's back, pushed her out, and said, "Let's go, this kind of questioning is too boring, just let him do it, let's go out for a breath."
When Bei Nuan and the others all went out, Lu Xingchi signaled Lao Hu to continue.
Lao Hu went on to say, "Master Qiu said that those people are used to hanging on the bottom f-sign, and they are weak. If there is a famine, eat them first, and the resistance will not be too great."
"Those who hold high-level brands will only be glad that they are lucky and didn't get the F card. This matter has nothing to do with them, and they should not stand up and speak for those F cards. They will only eat meat."
"Eat those with the F card, and the abcde card will not react. If you eat the e card, the abcd card above will not be affected. If you eat like this, the famine will always pass."
When he finished, the cave was silent.
Lu Xingchi walked over, pulled out the chair opposite him and sat down, leaned back in the chair, stared at him for a while, and suddenly made a sound.
"Pick yourself clean."
Lu Xingchi smiled.
"It seems that you didn't come up with the idea of separating people into three, six, nine, and so on."
Lao Hu was completely awake this time, and looked at the terrifying man sitting across from him in horror.
His eyes were so perceptive that they seemed to be able to read people's hearts.
Lu Xingchi rested his elbows on the armrest of the chair, crossed his fingers and placed them in front of him, his thumbs moved slightly.
A dagger suddenly appeared out of nowhere, flew in front of Lao Hu, and hovered in the air.
"Are you going to tell it yourself, or let me open your head and see for yourself?"
Old Hu shivered. He looked in horror at the dagger that was hovering strangely in the air a few inches in front of him, and swallowed hard.
He finally confessed.
"I did it to divide people into different levels, but I really didn't expect that Master Qiu would use it like this!"
"Oh?" Lu Xingchi was interested.
Lao Hu took another look at the sharp dagger tip and ducked back.
The dagger was sent forward lightly, and its relative position to him did not change at all.
Lao Hu was about to cry.
"I am in charge of the registration of laborers on the island. Every time someone comes up, I write down their name."
"When registering everyone's name, I just wrote the number on the back. One, two, three, four, five, etc., I wrote it secretly myself, and no one told it."
"As a result, one day, Master Qiu came, flipped through my book, and asked me what the numbers after my name meant."
"I told him that the person who came is stronger and looks more powerful, and I will mark it as one. If he is too old or too young, and if he is weaker, I will mark it as five."
"Master Qiu thought about it, praised me, and said it was a good idea."
"Then he asked me to change one to five from a to f, saying that it is like this, the sense of hierarchy is stronger, and then asked me to make an iron card, giving everyone one, and those who go to the island in the future, also give one to each person ."
After he said this, he stopped talking.
Lu Xingchi's beautiful eyes showed an impatient look, the dagger sent forward and stopped in front of Lao Hu's eyes.
"You think I'm wasting my time sitting here just to hear you say this?"
Lao Hu was already leaning tightly against the back of the chair, unable to hide, cold sweat poured out from his forehead one by one.
Lu Xingchi didn't go around in circles with him anymore.
"Old Hu, what is your ability?"
Lao Hu was completely soft this time.
This man really knows everything.
"I can see a light."
Lao Hu's eyebrows drooped down, and this time he finally gave up completely.
"The light on everyone's body is different. Some are red, some are yellow, and some are green."
Lu Xingchi speculated, "So you record the greenest person as a, and the red person as f?"
"Yes. From green to yellow to red, the redder the lower the grade."
Lu Xingchi asked, "What does the color of light represent?"
Old Hu confessed: "I don't know either. But I observed it, and found that the greener the light, the safer people seem to be, less likely to cause accidents, and fewer deaths. People with reddish light, generally speaking, will Died quickly."
Lao Hu defended himself, "I didn't divide the people according to the method that Master Qiu said. I only divided the people who were glowing red with F cards. They are all dying anyway, so it doesn't matter if they are divided into F cards."
Lu Xingchi nodded, "When did you have this ability? Since rebirth?"
When the word "rebirth" came out of Lu Xingchi's mouth, Lao Hu stopped looking at the dagger in front of him and looked at him in surprise.
"Yes, since I was reborn." Old Hu wilted.
Lu Xingchi glanced at him lightly, "Have you ever died?"
Lao Hu said honestly: "I died once. It was the seventh year after the zombie outbreak. Many zombies have mutated. This lake is useless and the island can't be defended. We took a boat and ran out."
"When I was about to go ashore, everyone else went up, and my legs were pulled by the zombies in the water."
Old Hu shuddered.
Lao Hu seemed to remember the fear of being dragged away by zombies, and subconsciously touched the table with his hand, as if he was looking for a stainless steel cup for wine, and suddenly remembered that the cup was gone.
He withdrew his hand awkwardly.
Lu Xingchi thought to himself, if Bei Nuan was here, she would definitely ask a question.
Lu Xingchi asked for her, "There is a child on the island called Xiaoshao who sells roasted sparrows, and also died?"
"Little Spoon," Old Hu said, "I know, she was a big girl at that time. A few months before the island broke, she walked over the wall with a young man."
Lu Xingchi listened absently, and clenched the iron card in his hand.
He went around and asked a bunch of questions, but in the end he still had to face the questions he never wanted to face.
Lu Xingchi said, "The man with me, you gave him a B card at the beginning, and then changed it to an A card, why?"
Lao Hu thought for a while and replied, "I remember this. I saw his light was a little yellowish at first, but after watching it again, I don't know why, and it turned pure green again. I don't know why. The light will change, it has never been encountered before."
Lu Xingchi paused for a moment before continuing to ask calmly, "What about the girl with me? You gave her an F card."
Lao Hu swallowed and glanced at the dagger.
"As long as you tell the truth, I won't kill you." Lu Xingchi said lightly.
Then Lao Hu said timidly: "She is... she is pure red."
"According to my past experience, if the light on the body is greenish, maybe it will die, and if the light on the body is reddish, maybe there is a chance to live, but like her, people who emit pure red light are all dead. already."
When Lu Xing came out late, the sky was full of stars outside the cave.
Bei Nuan was standing with his back to the cave waiting for him.
The tips of her long hair were gently lifted by the night wind, and in front of her was a vast and boundless sky with no light pollution, with a splendid Milky Way across it.
Hearing his voice, Bei Nuan turned around and smiled at him under the starlight.
She asked, "What's new here?"
"Nothing." Lu Xingchi said, "Those iron cards are the things they made to deceive people."
Bei Nuan looked like she had guessed it a long time ago, "I'll just say, how could it be so evil, and "survival probability", how did you come up with it?"
Du Ruo and the others also came over. Du Ruo took Jiang Fei and Tang Tang's shoulders from left to right, "Let's go, let's go back to sleep. I'm sleepy."

Bei Nuan also turned around and walked forward.
Lu Xing caught up with Bei Nuan a few steps later, and suddenly reached out, took off the F card from her neck, and threw it into the grass.
It's too dark in the grass, and the sign will be gone if you throw it away.
Bei Nuan was inexplicable, "Why did you throw away my brand?"
Lu Xingchi replied lightly, "What are you wearing that kind of useless pretending to be a ghost? Are they all boring?"
He took his brand out of his pocket and threw it into the grass.
When Du Ruo heard it, he immediately turned his head and grabbed his iron card, "Let's talk first, I don't want to throw it away. I finally got the a."
Tang Tang asked, "Will there be trouble if I don't wear it?"
Bei Nuan thought for a while, "I think that Qiu Ji doesn't seem to like being put up with signs as much as his brother."
Lu Xingchi looked down at her through the starlight, "Do you know him well?"
