Chapter 266 Strange Cars
It was getting dark that day, and the old car site was lit up with a mess of lights and candles.
Not every shack here has electricity, the messy wires are connected to multiple dilapidated generators, and the maintenance of water and electricity in the entire camp is a huge expense.
This night was jubilant and lively. There were crowds on the dirt road and streets. In front of the butcher shop, people divided up the huge pot of hot soup made with whole pigs. People who drank the soup tsk tsk and shouted when they didn’t drink it.
On those dirty and black faces, there are rotten teeth and teeth filled with various materials such as brass and alloys.
Gu He, Lorna, and Pandora watched the excitement from a distance. The rotten doorknob was drinking a bowl of soup and came over to ask them if they wanted to drink it. The old car told them to drink as much as they wanted.
But the rotten doorknob is a little worried, these three people look like the kind of people with big stomachs.
"Uh, no need..." Gu He didn't really want to drink the hot soup that was definitely not clean and hygienic.
"Damn doorknob, we eat spicy food every day in Kabukicho, it doesn't matter what you are." Lorna wasn't interested either.
They didn't want to drink, no one cared anyway, and they wished they didn't drink, so the bad doorknob was relieved.
Staying overnight in a mud pond is really not a good experience, everything here is too dirty.
It is not easy to make friends with the people here. Unlike the wild and unrestrained people, these trash guys have a lot of annoying aspects. The people here are not very knowledgeable, but they are not simple.
But who made them like this?
Pandora didn't mean to make friends, Gu He and Lorna chatted with a few young scavengers, and gradually chatted with Lu Qi, the oriental cultivator.
I have been busy during the day, but I have never officially met, and now I only get to know each other when I am free.
The two went to Lu Qi's residence as guests. It was a small and old tin shack. When you entered the door, there was a living room and a bedroom. Lu Qi said that it was a "shabby room" without being modest at all.
The house was kept neat and tidy, and there were bookshelves that were out of place in the muddy pond, with stacks of books on them.
Lu Qi came from Dongtu Street, where he was a disciple of a bookstore called "Wenheguan".
And the so-called over-the-know, whether it is the idea pursued or the way to improve the program, it is over-transformation—walking through a place, influencing others with one’s own words and deeds, and doing practical things to educate.
His Q-level program is "excessive to save God", only those who feel that it is too much will be effective, and thus give back to his program.
Gu He felt that it sounded so simple, but it was a bit similar to Elizabeth's heroic redemption procedure.
"In this city, is there any place in the city that needs to be transformed more than a mud pond?" Lu Qi said.
That's why Lu Qi is here.
But it's hard to do something here, he finally got a breakthrough today and can raise pigs.
Lu Qi's idea is to build a pigsty by himself, and prove to everyone here that raising pigs is economical and feasible through his own behavior of raising pigs, which will make the classic car site better.
But the problem with raising pigs in swill is that pigs are prone to get sick, and he has to add some bacteria-killing drugs into the swill.
"I think you'll be wasting your efforts." Lorna said while looking at the titles of the books on the shelf, "I won't talk about whether swill will feed dead pigs, and I don't understand either.
"But how long does it take for a sow to go from pregnancy to piglets to piglets growing up?
"It's hard to say whether the old car site is still there, and how many of these people will be able to wait for the soup and meat tonight. Even if there is no problem with the swill, what about the pig stealers? Is there really an environment for raising pigs here? Anyway, I feel very Disaster."
"It's stupid." Lu Qi sighed when he heard the words, "You can only do your best."
Gu He pulled La Lona and whispered to her softly: "Lu Qi raises pigs in the muddy pond, engages in red rain group with Elizabeth, and engages in bone and blood sports with your father, there is no difference."
Lorna fell silent, so she had no more thoughts of burying Lu Qi.
"Raise it, raise it, isn't there something called an idiom in Dongtu dialect?" She turned and said, "Maybe in a few years, there will be a whole 'Lu Qi raising pigs', just like that Foolish Old Man who moved mountains."
"Well, Lu Qi, it's like this..." Gu He decided to give it all the money, "I just know a little bit about sow breeding techniques, litter care, and postpartum care, and I'll tell you later. Say."
Lorna looked at him suspiciously, her eyes clearly asking: How do you understand this?
Whether it is a child in ruins, a child in a basement or a child in a cave, most people will not understand it.
"I just read books on this topic before." Gu He had to spread his hands, "I like to read books, so just read them."
"Thank you! Three people, there must be my teacher, please brother Gu, you must teach me all pig raising skills."
Lu Qi was very pleased with this, "When I went shopping in the castle before, I heard about your acts of kindness in Kabukicho, and Miss Elizabeth Sterling's House of Red Rain, Lu thought that it was a matter of education. ."
"She played earlier and older than you," Lorna said. "Call her Liz the redhead, she likes that."
Gu He heard the words and pondered, Lu Qi is also a street friend that the Red Rain Group can win over.
Especially the friends who are active in the mud pond, there are not many, where can I find them.
Think about it, if Lu Qi continues to work in the classic car, and if he does a good job, the classic car group will become friends of the Red Rain Troupe, at a point in the muddy pond.
"We know the red-haired Liz quite well." He said, "As a person, she will be very happy to meet you."
"That's an honor for Lu." Lu Qi was happy, "I wonder if she can contribute some money here?"
Gu He stopped immediately, twisted the lid of the thermos cup in his hand, and took a sip of wolfberry water.
The big cup has been thoroughly cleaned inside and out. He will definitely have to use it to drink water in the future. He took the first sip from his teeth before, and it was not difficult after that, although it was not very clean and hygienic.
Donations? He thought that the goose himself was short of money...
But if it was him, she should have given it. The last time she came to the muddy pond, she was very distressed. Recently, she has been blaming herself for doing too little. If Lu Qi is busy here, she will be relieved.
"Maybe." Gu He didn't finish his words, "But the Red Rain House has limited funds, so it's definitely not too much."
"Lu is not looking for money." Lu Qi said, "But it's all about doing my best."
They settled on that, and Gu He turned around to introduce him.
"We want to go shopping on Dongtu Street in a few days." Lorna asked, "Do you have any good guides to introduce?"
"Is it a pleasure to have friends from afar?" Lu Qi immediately recited a sage's words happily, "You are very welcome to visit Wenhe Pavilion, but I want to stay here, I won't be able to greet you..."
Lu Qi thought for a while, "How about this, most of the ninth sons of our division are wandering around, but the younger brother Lu Jiu has not yet graduated. When you visit Dongtu Street, you can ask him to greet you."
Deer Nine? Lorna was a little curious, "So your names are Lu Yi to Lu Jiu?"
"No, these are our generations." Lu Qi went to the locker and rummaged through it. "Most of us were orphans on the streets. We were adopted by our master Wei Master, who gave us enlightenment and wisdom to get where we are today."
Lu Qi pulled out a business card and gave it to them. It was a token thing. He took it to the Wenhe Pavilion and received it by himself.
Gu He of course accepts it, he and Lorna are worried about not having a relationship with Dongtu Street.
Lao Fan, the fat man who made food, obviously has many old friends, and maybe he has a good old friend, but he is not very willing to help.
I heard that the forces on Dongtu Street are complicated, and Duowenheguan is also a good way.
It was an unexpected joy to meet Lu Qi.
At this time, there were heavy footsteps outside the shack, and the revered cry of the street people: "Classic car!"
"Lu Qi, are the two guests here with you?" The strange screeching voice of the classic car came in.
"Exactly, a classic car, please come in." Lu Qi walked to the door to greet him with respect.
Gu He had heard from him before that the classic car was a muddy character he respected, so he chose to live here.
It is not easy to make such a well-regulated site in this place, and it can be maintained for many years.
The figure with the complex chassis of the classic car walked into the shed, the mechanical armor all over his body had countless small indicator lights flashing, and the fully obscured helmet even covered his eyes.
"Two distinguished guests." The classic car looked at Gu He and Lorna, "The alien species has been preliminarily treated. We found that its claws are very hard, and it is a rare material. I want to give you a copy."
"Uh..." Gu He asked Lorna, it seems good to have gifts, and the classic car is also showing goodwill.
"Okay, we'll take it." Lorna is welcome, she's polite to some trash guys, and besides, it was called by them desperately, so it's normal to share a portion.
She thought of something and asked: "Classic car, our off-road vehicle is a bit damaged. Can you use this material and add some other things to repair it as I want?"
Classic car site not only sells cars, but also specializes in this kind of modified vehicle business.
In this city, there is nowhere to modify the vehicle cheaper than here, and it is absolutely full of strange things. The scavengers have everything available to meet almost all requirements, and often bring surprises.
Many people who are in the wilderness will come to change their cars.
"No problem." The voice of the classic car is still hoarse and calm, "But we have never modified a strange vehicle, and this is our first attempt, so the effect cannot be guaranteed."
"Let's try it first." Lorna couldn't say either, she wasn't familiar with that off-road vehicle, Daniel.
Gu He thought of Da Niu Niu and had some lingering fears.
He has already told Lorna, you have to teach a big bull, otherwise it will not hit people, and it will not be good if it hits flowers and plants.
Lorna said, take care of your own mug first and don't look around.
Suddenly, the big cup in Gu He's hand emitted a strong light from a flashlight, which shone on the chest of the upper body of the classic car. It seemed to be scanning with X-rays, and it looked transparent.
He didn't have time to throw the thermos out, it had already made a sound: "Little cup, little cup!"
The atmosphere in the shack condensed, and the three of them and the classic car were silent.
Gu He feels terrifying, is he crazy, saying this to a man who should be middle-aged and old...
But this also makes him a little strange. The big cup is a very picky thing. It will only react when facing those beautiful and good-looking women. If it is relatively flat like Pandora, it will ignore it. .
As for men... Big Cup Cup never reacts, even in the face of someone with a cup like Lao Fan.
Now what is going on? An idea couldn't help but float in Gu He's mind. Could it be that the classic car is a woman?
"Classic car, I'm sorry..." he said, "This thermos cup is broken, and it will say something inexplicable all day."
Over the door of the shack, the old man stood there, not moving.
"I didn't talk nonsense." Big Cup protested with a banging sound on steel, "Big Cup can be a telescope, I have seen it, it is really a small cup, not an old cup, it is a woman, I want to eat women, eat I am a woman without a woman."
"..." Gu He really didn't know how to explain it, so he must study how to turn off its voice function when he goes back.
Lorna raised her brows when she heard it, Lu Qi didn't know, but she also knew the temperament of Big Cup...
She also said jokingly: "Most of the people wearing masks are girls."
"Classic car, aren't you a little girl?" Lorna looked at the face of the classic car's helmet, "Our thermos actually has some eyesight."
The classic car still didn't speak, looking at them as if he was thinking about something.
At this moment, Zhentong's heart twisted into a ball, full of tension and confusion, they knew it!
How would they know, they probably always knew.
Knowing that there is a woman inside the chassis of the classic car, a chick who is not 17 or 18 years old...
This is a scene, they sang the double reed to the thermos cup, and gave her this reminder through the mouth of the thermos cup.
But why now, if they already knew, they could use this to threaten her and find what they want...
And during the day, this thermos cup has also seen her, why didn't you speak at that time?
Why now?
Many thoughts flashed through Zhentong's mind. The mud pond is a dangerous place. Doing business with others requires all kinds of precautions. She has also been groping for a classic car this year, and she has suffered a few losses.
Is it because they came to find the resurrection species, or changed their minds and wanted to swallow the resurrection species corpse?
Or... Zhentong looked at Lu Qi, what did they chat with Lu Qi just now? Is Lu Qi the one who already knew, and just told them the secret.
In order to cover up the truth, she will not take off this body except in the big shed of the classic car where no one is allowed to enter.
But even so, she is not sure that the secret has never been worn.
Especially until today, I have never really seen the extraordinary strength of this educator...
Zhentong felt as if there was a net covering her, all joy was dissipating, and some panicked.
"Uh..." Gu He saw that something was wrong, the classic car wouldn't suddenly have a stroke.
I fuck? Lorna stared at the old car in a daze, unable to speak, how could she feel that she was right.
"What do you want to say, just say it." The old car finally spoke, his voice screeching: "There is no need to beat around the bush."
"misunderstood, misunderstood." Gu He didn't want to make trouble, but he didn't know what the classic car had misunderstood.
"I'm stupid..." Lu Qi couldn't even speak, "I don't know the current situation."
"Daughter of Bone and Blood, come with me, I'll talk to you," said the classic car.
Lorna shrugged, and followed the classic car out of the shack. Gu He also followed, watching Lorna and the classic car go away in the dark night, standing by an open garbage dump and talking. Both figures looked hazy.
"The big cups are all because of your incompetence." He blamed the thermos cup in his hand.
After a while, Lorna turned around and walked back, while the classic car walked slowly in the other direction.
Gu He greeted him and saw that Lorna had a funny look on her face, smoking a cigarette.
"What's wrong?" he asked suspiciously.
"Connect, connect, small cups, big secrets." Lorna tilted her head at him.
Gu He immediately released the blood thread to connect with her, and he heard her laugh wildly in her mind: "Classic car is really a girl, about the same age as Angel Sterling, there are really such people!"
"What? How is it possible?" Gu He was stunned, the soul of gossip was burning hotly.
Doesn't it mean that the classic cars have been owned by the muddy pond for many years? It's impossible to become such a boss at a young age. Star child is so precocious, and at most Mike's entire thermos cup gang.
Lorna happily told the secret she just knew. "Classic car" is an inheritance, and that little girl is called Zhentong.
"Ah..." Gu He understood now, the classic car is also a master, "Why did she tell you all?"
"The big cup frightened her." Lorna was still laughing, "I thought we were trying to figure her out, I didn't need to say anything, she just shook it all out, just a little bitch, classic cars."
Lorna took a puff of cigarette and stopped with a smile, but remembered that she was not the same as before.
"It's fine for me and you to know, don't tell others, Pandora, Hua Qing, don't tell anyone, that's all.
"We'll be leaving in two days, but classic cars still have to operate here."
She looked at the black and starless night sky and exhaled a cloud of smoke.
"Yeah, I understand." Gu He looked at the classic car that was walking away, so he really couldn't tell.
really answered what Lorna just said, most of the people wearing helmets, masks, and veils are girls.
"Then how did you tell Matong? Matong, right?" he asked.
"Let's put it that way, let her not worry, we are really here to turn over the garbage, it is indeed the thermos cup talking nonsense, and if she doesn't want to hang around in the muddy pond, I will introduce her to be a mercenary." Lorna said .
Gu He looked at the crowded streets of the camp in the distance, and had a feeling, "She won't leave."
"I also think that she is the kind of person who will die in a puddle of mud. I just want to tell her...she is not alone."
Lorna looked up at the night sky with a slight smile, "Actually, it's good for her to wear it in secret.
"If you are not known by anyone in the world, if you are not known by anyone, you will sometimes be very annoying. When you are known and understood by others, you will want to live even more." She said aloud. .
"Don't smoke that cigarette, it's very uncomfortable..." Gu Hekuai couldn't help coughing, and his brain was about to faint.
Lorna rolled her eyes, threw away the remaining cigarette and stomped it out, and then took the initiative to disconnect the sympathetic connection.
"It's not uncomfortable." She said, "You can teach Lu Qi how to raise pigs. I'll go to the bar to find a drink."
Suddenly, both of them were startled, only to see a heavy-duty off-road vehicle driving by on the road over there.
"Da Niu Niu Hu Hu Da Niu Niu!" Gu He hurriedly shouted, but he ignored it.
It has all the windows open to blow the wind, you can see no one in the car, and you can hear it playing rock music and honking the car horn as if singing together: "Boom bang, bang bang bang—"
Lorna immediately stepped forward and walked quickly, "Damn it, my car wants to run away!"
