Desperate Night

Frightened, Yu Hong found a few more large rocks he had found before and smashed them into pieces with his fists to make sure that his strength was real. Only then did he truly experience the exaggerated effect of the heavy leg skill in strengthening the whole body.

Strength, burst, energy, endurance, after a simple test, he found that all items were improved, some large and some small, the overall increase was mainly in strength and burst, and the rest was just a little bit increased.

But even so, he was in a good mood.

Soon, before dark, he returned to the cave from the forest. Before he got close, he saw a large piece of rough white stone piled in a corner of the yard from a distance.

He was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but speed up his pace, enter the yard, and come to the stone.

The stone was about the same height as him, with a diameter of about one meter. It was placed upright in the corner of the yard, next to the entrance steps of the safe house. There were clear footprints on the ground when it was moved.

Yu Hong reached out and pulled out a piece of paper between the stone and the mountain wall. There was a handwriting on it: The promised pyroxene has been delivered to-Xu.

‘Xu Fan?’ Yu Hong reacted instantly.

This guy is really efficient. He said he was going to dig pyroxene, and in a blink of an eye, he sent a large piece. This piece is enough for him to use for a long time.

In addition, the red value of the pyroxene grass in the yard is not small, so there is no need to worry about the pyroxene raw stone being consumed by the passing ghosts.

After confirming who sent the pyroxene, Yu Hong went up the stone steps, opened the door and returned to the house.

There are only a few days left before the pyroxene grass formation is successfully strengthened. He does not want any changes during this period, so he decided to stay in the safe house and guard the formation in the last few days.

He thought so and did so.

In the following days, Yu Hong hid in the house honestly, and did not even go to the post office, just to adapt to his newly improved physical fitness in all aspects.

Finally, the last day of the formation arrived.

He waited at the door early in the morning, looking at the countdown numbers on the ground, and waiting quietly.

During the boring waiting time, he looked up from time to time to look at the situation in Baiqiu Village in the distance.

‘Where are the newcomers in Baiqiu Village?’ Yu Hong was a little curious about how these people survived these days.

At night now, flying gnawers occasionally appear, which is much more dangerous than before.

At this time, people can be vaguely seen coming in and out of Baiqiu Village, seemingly carrying something.

The village has been surrounded by a circle of high stone walls, which block some of the houses inside.

‘Are these people reinforcing the village? Are they planning to build the village into a fortress?’ Yu Hong guessed.

While he was practicing, he looked at the formation and the village when he rested.

The second level of heavy leg skills requires the accumulation of new internal energy, which is also nine, but after finding the trick this time, Yu Hong increased the weight of his body, and the accumulation speed of training was much faster.

He estimated in his mind that according to the current progress, it is estimated that the first internal energy of the second level will be condensed in another week.

‘The second layer of internal energy condensation is obviously more difficult than the first layer, and the amount required is much larger. It is estimated that the effect of the internal energy explosion will be much stronger at that time. It can be used as a reserve energy for the strengthening of the black seal, which will definitely allow me to strengthen more things. ’ Yu Hong was full of expectations.

The outside world is too dangerous. His biggest wish now is to quickly complete the self-sufficiency of the safe house.

And self-sufficiency must first ensure basic safety. Then energy, water, and food. Therefore, the strengthening formation is the beginning of his high hopes.

Just as he was thinking about future plans in his mind, suddenly there was a subtle sound of footsteps in the woods not far away.

The click of shoes stepping on dry branches and leaves is quite harsh in this season. Even the sound of the wind cannot cover up this abrupt sound.

Coming back to his senses, Yu Hong looked up at the place where the sound came from.

He was standing outside the yard to avoid the radiation field. Looking over at this time, his vision was not blocked by the wall, and he soon saw the appearance of the person coming.

A short man in a black and gray long-sleeved sweater was approaching this side with a man and two women.

The short man had a dark complexion and a resolute face, but his eyes were filled with worry. He looked to be in his thirties, and his steps were steady, giving people a sense of caution.

The three people behind were different. They looked no more than thirty years old, and they had a strong student vibe.

One of the young boys had a fair and handsome face. Although his face was dirty and a little gray, it did not affect his special temperament of a standard little bottom.

The other two girls, one was wearing a red short-sleeved shirt and jeans, with a high ponytail swinging back and forth, had a cold temperament and ordinary looks, but her figure was long legs and hips, and her waist was slender. When she turned her back, she was a standard killer from behind.

The other one looked cute, with baby fat on her cheeks and two dimples, black hair and double ponytails, a flat chest and a short stature, and she also gave people a petite and cute feeling, very much a two-dimensional style. But at this time, the girl's eyes were red, and she had just cried.

When Yu Hong found them, the four people also saw Yu Hong, and their eyes suddenly lit up, as if they saw a savior, and quickened their pace to approach this side.

Soon the distance between the two sides shortened, and the four stopped ten meters away from Yu Hong. They stood there defenselessly, seemingly not worried at all that Yu Hong, who was wearing a bulletproof suit, would harm them.

This special sense of relaxation made Yu Hong involuntarily think of students who had just left school and entered society.

"Hello, is this Mr. Yu Hong? We are the Wushan Sports College team that just moved in here. We escaped from Yuhe. Let me introduce myself. I am Song Mingshi, the team leader of the college. The postman Mr. Li Runshan said that we can exchange some large pyrophyllite arrays with you. I wonder if it is true?"

The short and strong man who led the team stepped forward and spoke politely and with a low attitude.

Song Mingshi?

Yu Hong looked at this man and found a large slingshot and a forearm-long dagger on his waist. Then he looked at the other three people. These three only had wooden sticks.

Obviously, this team leader Song Mingshi is the force in this small team.

And from the way this guy walks, this guy is not much stronger than an ordinary person. His behavior and walking do not have the training sense of instinctive control of body strength like Lao Li.

A very dangerous group of people.

Yu Hong gave an evaluation. Of course, the danger he evaluated was not that this group of people would bring danger, but that they might encounter danger anytime and anywhere.

After experiencing various dangers in succession, Yu Hong knew very well how immature and weak these people were.

"I am Yu Hong. I am sorry. I have a problem with the Great Glory Stone and the Talisman Array. I won't sell them. It will take some time." He answered calmly.

"Won't sell?" Song Mingshi was stunned, and the three students behind him were even more obvious. Their faces were more or less wrong.

"Mr. Yu, we were originally following the supply team, but the supply team had an accident halfway and everyone was forced to separate. I, two teachers and thirteen students have not had enough food for two days. In addition, there are ghosts constantly appearing around us. We really need the Great Glory Stone to help make the isolation belt. Can you give us some here?" Song Mingshi pleaded.

"Something happened to the supply team?" Yu Hong's heart trembled, and his expression under the helmet suddenly became serious. "Is it the supply team coming this way?" He asked quickly.

"Yes. We encountered something unknown on the way. Most of the people in the supply team disappeared. Without the guards and the leader, everyone divided the supplies and fled. No one dared to stay in the caravan." Song Mingshi said helplessly.

"When did it happen?" Yu Hong asked again, his face solemn. Without the supply team, he and Lao Li had no way to replenish food. I'm afraid they would have to rely on their own production. In this case, they had to add more people to work.

"About five days ago." Song Mingshi replied.

"Trouble" Yu Hong exhaled. The crisis of Yu Ren was over, and everything began to return to calm, but the supply team had trouble again.

"What did Li Runshan tell you? Why did he ask you to come to me?" After a pause, Yu Hong asked again.

"Mr. Li received some silver dollars from us and gave us your address. If possible, I wonder if we can also exchange silver dollars for some food and medicine?" Song Mingshi said the real reason. This group of people were able to go with the mountain supply team and now they could persuade Li Runshan. Obviously, the fundamental reason was that they had money.

No wonder these people were able to stay stable after living in Baiqiu Village. Obviously, they had abundant supplies.

"Money is useless. I don't know when it will be useless in this world. What can you exchange for me? Tell me." Yu Hong asked casually. If there is a real need, it is not impossible to exchange some for them. Anyway, the big talisman formation can be strengthened today.

"We brought some lightless mushroom strains newly developed by the Silver Tower, called pig leg mushrooms. There are also the latest water purifiers, maintenance tools, hand-cranked generators, and quilts." Song Mingshi answered quickly.

"Anything else?" Yu Hong frowned.

"This... Don't you want these?" Song Mingshi asked helplessly.

"It's useless. Besides, how long do you plan to stay here? There is definitely not enough food for so many people." Yu Hong asked.

"After repairing, we plan to go to Baihe City. I heard that there are many refugees gathered there." Song Mingshi found that the other party was not interested in what he had, and his face suddenly became a little anxious. "Then, there is no rush for large pyroxene. If it doesn't work, we can go to the mining area to dig ordinary pyroxene, but what about anti-inflammatory drugs? I wonder if Mr. Yu can exchange some for us. Several people in our team have a high fever."

"I can give you some medicine. One person's daily amount can be exchanged for five silver dollars. Is that okay?" Yu Hong said in a deep voice. He is not a philanthropist. If you give it away for free in this environment, people will not only treat you as a fool, but also continue to trap you in various ways.

"You are too..." Song Mingshi's face changed slightly. This price is a bit too expensive. I don't know how effective the medicine is, how long it takes to take a course of treatment, and how long it will take to take effect.

In case the effect is very weak, it takes a long time to take it.

"And I only have three doses now, I have to keep some for myself. I don't have time to make it for the time being." Yu Hong said bluntly. "If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, forget it."

He found that this group of people had no idea of ​​the situation. The importance of anti-inflammatory drugs at this time is not comparable to silver dollars. In fact, silver dollars are worthless under the premise that it is difficult for the supply team to arrive here.

In this isolated environment, a dose of anti-inflammatory drugs is like a life. Yu Hong is actually helping them by exchanging them.
