Chapter 131: Sang Chu Comes Looking
“Who? Who’s there? Get out here!”
Lin Yu sensed someone and stared intently at the stone pillar not far away with his dark eyes.
Sang Chu slowly walked out from behind the stone pillar: “I didn’t expect your base to be here.”
“What are you following me for?”
Lin Yu watched the woman with extreme caution, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes, afraid she would pull out that ever-changing fan again.
Sang Chu: “The ones downstairs are the food you brought back to raise to control ordinary people.”
“Mind your own business! Get out of here, or I’ll bite you to death!”
Lin Yu bared his teeth and made a move he thought was terrifying, but Sang Chu smiled: “You bit me just now. If I don’t get infected, I’ll become a zombie, but if I can cure myself, doesn’t that also mean you can turn back from a zombie into a human?”
“Human? No, I don’t want to become human, I’ll die if I become human!”
Lin Yu retreated continuously, maintaining a certain distance from Sang Chu.
Sang Chu was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting him to have such thoughts, but it made sense. Zombies wouldn’t die, at least. However, if he turned back into a human and his zombie supernatural ability disappeared, he probably wouldn’t survive in the apocalypse.
“Since that’s the case, then forget it. How about a trade?”
This was Sang Chu’s purpose for coming here. Lin Yu didn’t know what she wanted to do, only that this person was not to be trifled with: “What do you want to trade?”
“In the apocalypse, I can provide you with food, poultry, fruits, and vegetables. But I need Crystal Cores, a large amount of Crystal Cores. For every trade, you can have zombies find me, or I can send people over, it’s fine. As long as you agree, I can show you the food I can provide.”
Lin Yu grinned: “You need Crystal Cores to enhance your supernatural ability, and so do I. Why should I give you Crystal Cores in exchange for food!”
“Without food, you will die. Crystal Cores can enhance supernatural abilities, but they can’t fill your stomach. And these people, you would only dare to take a small bite from each, ensuring they turn into zombies before stopping. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many zombies in this place.”
“No, it’s not, you, you guessed wrong!”
Lin Yu trembled inwardly: How did she know?
Sang Chu: “It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it. I just want to make a trade with you. The power of the Blood Moon is declining. It can’t evolve just by consuming supernatural ability users, but I have a way to provide corresponding power, provided it lets me take all the people away.
I provide the power it needs, it helps me make Crystal Cores, you help me deliver goods, and I give you corresponding items. A win-win-win trade. If you agree, come find me. Pei Zhao knows where I am. This is for you, as my token of allegiance.”
Sang Chu threw a fingernail-sized Spirit Stone Jade to the Little Zombie King. He held it tremblingly, perhaps afraid to approach his mastermind, and threw the Spirit Stone Jade back to Sang Chu.
“If you want to talk trade, go yourself. I won’t go see it!”
After speaking, he leaped from the tall building and fled.
Sang Chu looked at his panicked retreating back and frowned slightly: “This thing is probably more terrifying than our neighbor.”
Tu You had already visited the Little Zombie King’s base and sent all the images back to Lu Min Feng. His father and brother-in-law were indeed here, and Pei Zhao was also here.
When he flew back, he happened to hear Sang Chu’s words and asked:
“What do we do now? So many people, if they all have to be taken away, it won’t be possible if the other party doesn’t agree.”
Sang Chu fell silent, and after a long while, asked: “What about the Train Tickets?”
Tu You: “Mian Ge said there might be one place, but he’s not entirely sure. You’ll have to find it yourself.”
“What place?”
“Magic Continent. Train Tickets are very expensive. You are fifty million a month. For others, the price is three times yours. Do you want to buy them?”
“Buy them. How much Spirit Stone Jade do we have left?”
Tu You: “I’ve put all the Spirit Stone Jade and Spirit Stone Jade Liquid Paste in the Bracelet Space. I’ve recently hatched some new ones. Their purity is incomparable to the previous Spirit Stone Jade, and the price will be much lower, but it’s enough to pay for the Train Tickets. Are you sure you want to exchange them for money to buy Train Tickets?”
For Tu You, he felt it was a bit of a loss to exchange a large amount of Spirit Stone Jade for money in the apocalypse, but if Sang Chu insisted, he couldn’t do anything about it.
Taking people on a trip was much more expensive than a ticket holder traveling alone, not cost-effective at all.
Sang Chu: “I’ll go back and ask them if they’re willing. You prepare them for me first. Cultivation can be done with Crystal Cores. Since we know these Mutated Plants can hatch Crystal Cores, Crystal Cores are no longer a rare commodity.”
“Alright, as long as you decide!”
Sang Chu went back by stairs. As she passed by Lu Ming and the others, she looked at Pei Zhao: “Are you coming back with me? Your mother should look for you after she wakes up.”
Pei Zhao: “Mom is okay?”
“Yes, she’s already returned to the base with your Uncle Lu Min Feng.”
Upon hearing Lu Min Feng’s name, Lu Ming stood up abruptly. Pei Peng Wen, who had been holding Pei Zhao, was no longer as defensive.
Lu Ming: “Young lady, do you know my son?”
“Yes, Uncle Lu, hello. Lu Min Feng and I are friends. We came to Qing Liu City together to seek relatives, but there are too many eyes and ears in Qing Liu City, and not many people know about this yet.”
Lu Ming: “That’s how it should be. Those ordinary people and supernatural ability users are not to be trifled with. By the way, how are they now? Can you take them away?”
Pei Peng Wen also urgently needed to know. His gaze was fixed on Sang Chu’s face, not wanting to miss the slightest expression.
Sang Chu: “You two can wait. We’ll come to pick you up to leave together then.”
Pei Peng Wen quickly pushed his daughter to her side: “It’s not important whether we can leave. Can you take the mother and daughter away? Qing Liu City is not a good place. If you can leave, please take them away!”
Lu Ming: “Yes, yes, no matter what you want, whether we have it or not, just say it, and we’ll find a way!”
Sang Chu took Pei Zhao’s hand and smiled: “We will find a way to take you all away. You are Lu Min Feng’s family, and he is my friend and a key member of our base. Both officially and personally, I will handle his affairs properly. Are you two hungry? Here, have this.”
As she spoke, she took out a few fruits and handed them to them. As soon as they saw the fruits, people hiding in the dark began to stir, but they dared not approach due to Sang Chu’s status as a supernatural ability user.
At this moment, a middle-aged woman walked up: “Can, can you give us some food too?”
Sang Chu turned to look at her. She saw that her face had already developed corpse spots, but she didn’t seem to have any supernatural abilities?
Is this someone who has already turned into a zombie but awakened self-awareness?
Pei Zhao, who was holding Sang Chu’s hand, suddenly trembled and tightened her grip, looking somewhat scared.
