Wu Chan and others found a place to camp.
It was just some canned food that was heated, and the children who had just received the alms came looking for it after smelling the aroma. But this time they did not dare to come forward to ask for it. Instead, they hid behind the rocks and peeked instead of popping up to take a look.
Wu Chan could tell that these children wanted to take advantage of the sympathy of the people in the team and actively called them over. For example, Gong Tiantian was already planning to wave.
Wu Chan said: "Tiantian, let me ask you a question."
Gong Tiantian's attention was diverted: "Boss, tell me."
Wu Chan asked: "When did a thief become a thief?"
Gong Tiantian said: "How do I know? There are too many reasons."
Wu Chan said: "I know one person. From the first time he accidentally picked up a wallet, he never raised his head again when walking."
Gong Tiantian understood Wu Chan's hint and said, "It's just a little meat for a few children."
Wu Chan said: "If you want to rebuild your home, you can't rely on praying every day and having good intentions and passing by here."
As soon as these words came out, everyone who had the same compassion as Gong Tiantian gave up their thoughts.
Gong Tiantian pouted: "The boss is so cold-blooded."
Wu Chan said: "This is not far from D067 New City. If you regret it, go back."
Gong Tiantian's eyes turned red on the spot. If Wu Chan didn't coax her, she would really pack her things and leave.
Will Wu Chan coax her
of course not.
If so, is it still Wu Chan
Gan Xiaoyi said: "Tiantian, the boss just said that, don't take it seriously."
Apparently, he wasn't very good at coaxing people either.
Ma Sang reconciled: "Tiantian, we are still far away from the next supply point, but we may pass by several such places in the middle. Our food cannot keep up with our kindness. So, we have to save some money."
Gong Tiantian nodded: "It was my fault just now."
The group of children saw that the sympathy tactic was ineffective. After a while, a few of them tentatively approached the bonfire, as if they were betting that Wu Chan's group would not care about the children.
When a little boy of eleven or twelve years old stared hungrily at a can of key and got closer and closer, there was a bang, and a steel nail was shot into his foot. The child was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, got up and ran back. The other children also fled.
Tu Shuang put the repeating crossbow back behind his butt and continued eating.
After finishing the meal, an adult appeared escorted by four or five people.
Gong Tiantian thought they were here to seek justice for those children, and thought that the boss was right, and kindness should not be abused.
But unexpectedly, the leader turned out to be the representative of this group of refugees. He came to persuade everyone to stay and rebuild their homes with them.
The man's eyesight was quite good, and he could tell at a glance that Wu Chan and Ma Sang were the leaders of this team.
"As long as you stay and build the new city, you will be the city lords."
The title of city lord is not bad, but it also depends on what kind of city lord it is. The king of the garbage heap is not a real king. Moreover, Wu Chan and others are not interested in this.
Wu Chan said: "You should try your luck with others."
The leader continued to talk to Wu Chan and asked for benefits. They had no money and a few women. They even hinted that they could contribute a few girls.
These words angered all the women in the team. Gong Tiantian suppressed her anger. The boss didn't express his position, so she couldn't do anything casually. However, someone took action.
Candy kicked the leader between the legs. The man knelt down on the spot. His guards didn't know whether to draw their weapons or run away. Anyway, they were all knocked to the ground by Candy before they could take action.
Candy spat in the leader's face: "You are inferior to a beast, get out of here!"
The people on the ground rolled and crawled away.
Candy looked at Wu Zen.
"If you think I did something wrong, you can kill me now."
Luo Luo was about to plead for mercy, but heard Wu Chan say: "The only thing you did wrong was to show mercy."
Candy beamed with joy: "Then I'll catch up and kill them all."
Wu Chan said: "That's not necessary."
Everyone set up their tents to sleep, and no one came to disturb them during this period. Although this place is in ruins, the dilapidated buildings are far better than the open wilderness. At least there is little wind noise.
After a good night's sleep, the team had breakfast and packed their bags.
Before officially setting off, Chu Kuang found Wu Chan and Ma Sang.
"if you can… "
Wu Chan was stunned. Hesitant speech was not Chu Kuang's style.
"You want to stay?"
Chu Kuang said: "Of course not."
Wu Chan said: "Then if you have something to say, speak directly."
Chu Kuang said: "If possible, can we pass by D061 New City?"
This new city is further north and is not a must-see, but it is not impossible to go.
Ma Sang said: "I have no objection. I will listen to Brother Wu wherever I go."
Wu Chan said: "Of course, what, is your woman there?"
Tu Shuang turned around and looked over.
Chu Kuang was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "That used to be my home."
It didn't take long for the team to pack their bags and get back on the road. It was much easier to walk through the abandoned new city than in the wilderness.
Gong Tiantian said: "Boss, I was wrong."
Wu Chan said: "What?"
Gong Tiantian said: "I shouldn't have gotten emotional during dinner last night."
Wu Chan said: "Yeah."
Gong Tiantian said: "Next time I do something wrong, you can be cruel to me, but don't drive me away, okay? Because I will really leave."
Wu Chan said, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."
Gong Tiantian said: "Boss, you are so kind."
Wu Chan said: "Stop it here, don't make it sound like you are in love with each other."
Gong Tiantian blushed and was about to refute. Wu Chan interrupted her in time: "I am driving now, and if your thoughts are led astray, the entire convoy will go further and further astray."
Gong Tiantian had no choice but to shut up.
Luo Luo said: "Sister Gong, why not take this opportunity to tell another story about Journey to the West."
Gong Tiantian said angrily: "I'm not a storyteller."
Gan Xiaoyi said: "That's right."
Gong Tiantian said: "You are what you are."
Gan Xiaoyi didn't expect that he would get angry: "Huh?"
Gong Tiantian said: "When it comes to storytelling, how can I compare to others?"
Gan Xiaoyi was confused: "Who is it?"
Gong Tiantian said: "This is your Miss Dong."
Gan Xiaoyi said: "Why mention her when you are so good?"
Gong Tiantian said: "Why, don't I even deserve to mention her?"
Gan Xiaoyi said: "Of course I didn't mean it that way."
Gong Tiantian said: "Then what do you mean?"
Gan Xiaoyi: “…”
Gong Tiantian said: "I know you didn't say goodbye to your Miss Dong when you left Xincheng, and you have never forgotten her in your heart."
Gan Xiaoyi said: "I didn't."
Gong Tiantian said: "How can you prove that you don't have it?"
Gan Xiaoyi: “…”
The atmosphere in the carriage was suffocating for a time.
Luo Luo didn't understand: "Why did the topic come to this?"
Candy laughed softly and said, "Have you ever heard of a little girl venting her anger on others? This is it."
