After buying the motorcycle, Chen Xing left the shopping street and went to a grocery store on West Third Street. There are all kinds of sundries piled up inside and outside the store, from wooden bucket brushes, shoe brooms, towels and toothpaste, to ice cream soda, peanuts and melon seeds, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
A middle-aged woman with gray hair was struggling to carry a large sack. Her body suddenly tilted. Seeing that the sack of soybeans was about to fall to the ground, Chen Xing stepped forward and supported her.
"Thank you, thank you." The middle-aged woman thanked her repeatedly.
"Hello, aunt." Chen Xing said with a slight smile.
The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, then recognized it and said in surprise, "You are, you are... I remember, you are a young man from the year before last, and you are a friend of our big cat!"
This middle-aged woman is Big Cat's mother, and she even stuffed two cans into Chen Xing last time.
"It's me, my name is Chen Xing, a friend of Big Cat. We formed a mercenary group together in Sanchahe City." Chen Xing introduced himself.
"Yes, I heard him talking about you a few days ago, saying that you are a good big brother and a good leader!" Big Cat's mother raised her thumb and said excitedly, her calloused hands stroking the dirty apron. He wiped it hard, pointed to the inside of the store and said, "Quick, come in and have a drink of tea!" Then he shouted inside, "Er Mao, come out and pour tea for your elder brother's leader!"
Chen Xing followed Da Mao's mother into the store. A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old opened the curtain of the back room and came out with a hot water bottle in his hand.
"Big leader, this is Ermao, Big Cat's younger brother." Big Cat's mother quickly introduced.
"Hello, big brother." Ermao called. Unlike big cats, they are thinner, fair-skinned, and somewhat shy.
Without saying a word, Chen Xing directly gave him a red envelope of two hundred gold coins and said, "Take it to study."
What does the big cat have to do with him? People who come out to hang out always say that they are two brothers in one life. He and Da Mao are brothers in two lives. They have been through wind and fire and never flinched.
"Thank you, brother!" Ermao took the money, poured tea for Chen Xing, and then stood beside him with a kettle, like a soldier on guard.
"Let's have dinner at home tonight, I'll go buy vegetables!" Big Cat's mother said enthusiastically, turning around to get the vegetable basket, Chen Xing quickly stood up to stop her, "Don't bother, I have something to do, so just come over and take a look. "
"Oh, how can this work? Big Cat relies on you to take care of him outside. Last year, he even sent a large sum of money back. Only then did the family collect enough money to build a two-story building. Big Cat said that he made a lot of money. The money depends entirely on you..." Big Cat's mother said nagging, Chen Xing couldn't resist, so he stayed for a meal.
Before leaving, the big cat's mother stuffed him with a lot of dry food, all of which were the best in the store.
"When you come to Longshi Town from now on, eat at home. The ones outside are expensive and unclean..." "Brother, have a nice trip."
Big Cat's mother and Big Cat's brother chased him out for a long time before going back under Chen Xing's persuasion. Chen Xing turned the accelerator and drove down Longshi Mountain on his honest cruise motorcycle, heading towards Orchid Town.
"Woo!"
In the endless wilderness, a cruise motorcycle suspended half a meter in the air made a smooth and low engine sound. The high-pressure airflow under the car kicked up billowing smoke and dust, and it sped towards the north.
The Wilderness Overlord is a heavy-duty wilderness cruising motorcycle with a large fuel tank and strong endurance. It is a machine built for the wilderness and embodies the technological heritage of Red Earth Heavy Industry for thousands of years. Although it is expensive, its price/performance ratio is the highest among motorcycles, and it is also a standard vehicle for first-level defense teams in many countries.
If the king on the field is Sanxiang Heavy Industries' "Proud Sky Eagle", then it is the well-deserved king in the wilderness.
The strong wind blew in his face, and the feeling of flying came from his heart. Chen Xing flicked the safety cover on the handlebar and pressed the blue nitrogen acceleration switch.
"tumultuous……"
In an instant, liquid nitrous oxide is injected into the engine cylinder and quickly decomposes into oxygen and nitrogen. The oxygen assists combustion and the nitrogen cools down. The engine emits a low roar and the speed soars rapidly. The heavy cruising motorcycle turned into an arrow, and the speed needle turned to the 200km/h mark and continued to climb.
"Cool!"
Walking against the wind, Chen Xing was delighted. Once upon a time, he also pursued the speed and passion in the wilderness. Men and cars always have an undying bond.
A few days later…
A familiar picture fell into his eyes.
Dead trees, skeletons, wooden signs.
At the end of the gravel road, a white poplar tree stood stubbornly, with a skeleton from an unknown age hanging on a dry branch, and three wooden signs nailed to its two yellowed skeletal legs:
Roast Duck Town, 181km eastbound;
Meiren Town, 176km westbound;
Orchid Town, 113km northbound.
Finally, he returned to where he started.
The elders always say that you should get up wherever you fall. He, Chen Xing, is back, bringing wealth, power, and a brand new identity. In the next few years, he will flex his muscles here and establish his own power.
In front of the suspended locomotive with a speed of up to 150 kilometers per hour, the distance of a hundred kilometers was only half an hour. Chen Xing soon saw the water station on the dry and cracked red earth.
Compared to when we left, the water station is much the same as before, with low walls made of red clay and colorful refugee tents. Before leaving, Yeyang Bailiu told him that after settling down, she would go to the Beiqiao Regiment and hand over the management of the camp to Chen Xing's most capable subordinate, Aaron.
Aaron is the head of the house, so I don’t know how well he manages it. How is Luobo's life after marriage? Are Li Rou's female mercenaries still there? Is the driver Xiao Yang still as silly as before? Is the red wolf Quick still working as the Wilderness Lone Ranger? Have you ever come back to see them? Do the people of Gari Village, Sander Tribe, and Yanyang Village get along well? Mayor Garide, Chief Sander, and Elder Zhengyang, do they often sit down for a drink and take care of each other?
A series of questions came to his mind, and he couldn't help but speed up and drive towards the main entrance of the water station. The guard saw him from a distance and cautiously held the rifle behind his back.
"Who are you?" "What are you doing here?"
After driving closer, Chen Xing stopped the motorcycle. Two guards came forward to ask, with vigilance in their eyes. Chen Xing's eyes swept across the faces of the two people. He didn't know either of them, they must be newcomers, so he asked, "Who is in charge here, Aaron?"
One of the guards nodded, "He is our boss."
"Go in and tell him that his boss is back," Chen Xing said.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Our boss's boss is Mayor Wu. I have seen him. You are not Mayor Wu!" The guard became increasingly vigilant.
"Mayor Wu, Wu Chengqian?" Chen Xing asked.
"Did you call the mayor's name?" the guard said angrily, holding the gun tighter.
"You don't have to worry about me..." Chen Xing smiled and said, "You go in and inform Aaron, just say that there is a person who calls himself his boss and asks to meet, and he will understand."
The guard was dubious, but he still went in to inform him. After all, the heavy-duty cruiser next to Chen Xing could be seen at a glance. It was not a bargain, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to afford it.
After a while, Aaron came out with people. Compared to when he left, Aaron seemed to be stronger. He was wearing a military vest, and the muscles on his arms were bulging, full of explosive power. His skin was bronze, and the color tended to be dark red. This is a white male with a strength of five. Ten and above sign. The steps were extremely heavy, leaving deep footprints as they walked across the red soil. It is not difficult to see that Aaron has improved a lot during this period.
But a question also surfaced - how did the other party get the money to improve?
No matter how talented Aaron is, fifty points of strength will cost more than five thousand gold coins, and the improvements are relatively balanced, and it is impossible to improve only one attribute.
"Brother, you are finally back!"
Seeing Chen Xing, Aaron looked happy and opened his arms, wanting to come up and hug him. At this moment, from the corner of his eye, he saw Xiao Yang behind Aaron winking at him.
He and Aaron were five or six meters apart. In the flash of lightning, he noticed that Aaron's wording was not "boss" but "brother." Coupled with Xiao Yang's strange behavior, he felt a problem.
Perhaps after gaining status, Aaron had different ideas. In this world, there are as many people who are greedy for power as crucian carp crossing a river. Once you have tried that taste, it is harder to quit than drugs. Thinking of this, Chen Xing became vigilant and tensed his muscles, ready to respond at any time.
Sure enough, when the two were less than three meters apart, Aaron's brows frowned slightly. Although it was tiny and difficult to detect, it was still captured by Chen Xing.
In the spiritual sea, the trio of runes bloomed with brilliance and were ready to go. Chen Xing has this confidence. No matter how strong Aaron is, as long as he has not reached the defensive level, he can perfectly crush him.
However, in the next moment, Aaron's speed suddenly became faster, and the killing intent in his eyes was no longer concealed. Chen Xing was shocked that Aaron had the same abilities as him, similar to the trio.
Aaron has also used that kind of awakening potion. If he has it, why can't the other party have it. I only blame myself for being too careless, because the other party actually hid it so deeply!
There was a pinprick-like pain in my scalp, and a strong wind blew against my face. Aaron's figure quickly dilated in his pupils, blocking the light. Chen Xing made a prompt decision, activated his triple agility, avoided Aaron's bear hug, and ran towards the motorcycle behind him.
Aaron's blow missed and he immediately punched Chen Xing. Chen Xing just stepped on the motorcycle, twisted the accelerator with one hand, pulled out the Silver Star with the other, and pulled the trigger towards Aaron who was rushing towards him.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang!"
Seven shots hit Aaron in a row, and blue star sand splashed out. Although it did not cause any substantial damage, it blocked the attack. Taking advantage of this gap, the locomotive rushed out. Only then did the guard react, pick up his rifle and shoot.
But it was already too late. In just a few seconds, the motorcycle jumped a hundred meters away, making it difficult to aim.
"Farke!"
Looking at Chen Xing walking away, Aaron cursed and slapped the guard next to him on the face. The guard flew several meters away, bleeding from his mouth and nose, and fainted.
