Chapter 24 [Announcement of Entering V]
Chapter 24 [Announcement of Entering V]
Peng Mao is from Jiang City. He is only 26 years old this year. Although he doesn't look tall, he is a fitness instructor.
Recently, their company opened a new gym opposite the county government. As he couldn't get anyone to buy classes, he was arranged to come here.
He has been busy here for several days with opening the business and recruiting members to buy courses. When he came back to his senses, he saw a large number of people pouring into the township.And because someone made trouble in front of the county government, he was worried that it would affect him, so he hid in the gym and did not come out.
Later, when his brother came to look for him, he realized that an unknown virus had broken out everywhere, and the infected people would be like zombies, and their father was also bitten to death.
The two brothers lost their mother when they were young, and their father worked hard to bring them up. He also stayed and worked in his hometown to fulfill his filial piety, but his father just disappeared?
He was sad for a while, and then they had to flee when they saw the danger approaching the gym.
On the way, they met a group of people, led by a man named Ding Gu Nian.They were not as confused and scared as others, but they bravely fought against the zombies when they saw them.
Peng Mao and his younger brother Peng Sheng felt very safe following them, so they followed them until they came to this village and were attacked by a large number of zombies...

"So they think you have no fighting power, and following them is a burden, so they leave you here?" Hao Jian understood.
Peng Mao complained aggrievedly: "I'm just a fitness trainer, not a Terminator!"
Hao Jian twitched the corner of his mouth: "What about your brother?"
When Peng Sheng was mentioned, his eyes were red, and he said: "He thought I was useless and couldn't protect him, so he left with those people! The reason why he went to the countryside to look for me was not because he was worried about me at all, but Because he thinks the countryside can take refuge!"
Xin Ting frowned: "Aren't you brothers?"
"Yes, but I would rather we are not blood brothers!" Peng Mao was very disappointed, "He would rather be a younger brother to those people than go with me, it's too disrespectful!"
"In the face of desperation, do you want dignity or death? Most people will choose the latter!" Lian Runing walked over.
When Peng Mao told what happened to him, Hao Jian and the others took turns watching around the temple. Otherwise, if everyone stayed in the temple, Peng Mao might be besieged.
"How's it going outside?" Hao Jian was no longer interested in Peng Mao's affairs, she was going to follow her up and change to Ru Ning to rest.
"There are no zombies."
"It seems that the combat effectiveness of Ding Gu Nian's group is not bad. Although they can't completely wipe out the huge group of zombies, at least there are a lot fewer zombies in that village and nearby."
Peng Mao said: "I think you are also very good, and you know how to equip yourself!"
Hao Jian's figure had already left, Lian Runing smiled and didn't answer, only Xin Ting agreed: "Hao Jian is really brave and powerful..."
She selectively told Peng Mao some things that happened along the way, and Peng Mao was very admirable, and his favorability for Xin Ting soared: "Actually, your companions are very happy." Great, but you are also very brave, with your cooperation, they can kill so many zombies, right?"
Xin Ting said shyly, "Thank you."
Their lively chat couldn't continue, because the stomachs of several people were beating inappropriately.
Lian Runing and Xin Ting only ate a Snickers bar, but Peng Mao hadn't eaten since last night.After he was abandoned, he planned to find a place to stay for one night, but he met a zombie, and was chased here by the zombie in order to survive. He was exhausted, and there was only one place to hide around, so he hid in.
If it weren't for the excitement in his heart when he saw a living person supporting him, he might have fainted from hunger.
Lian Runing thought for a while: "I'll go to the field to see if there are any edible vegetables or fruits."
"You don't need to look for it. The mango trees around here have been patronized by Ding Gunian and the others. They said that the vegetables in the vegetable field don't know if they are infected with the virus, so they can't be eaten." Peng Mao said.
Lian Runing frowned, she cast her eyes on Hao Jian who was wandering outside, and quickly put her eyes away, and conducted a deep self-reflection: Why do I want to find her to solve it whenever I encounter difficulties?I can no longer rely on and trouble her so much!
Hao Jian seemed to feel something, and turned to look over.After a while, she came straight back and asked, "Do you have any cash with you?"
"Ah?" The three of them were dumbfounded by her question.
"If you have cash, go to the village and find someone to buy some food for me."
Having said that, only Hao Jian knew that this was just something she said to fool them.Just now, the system seemed to calm down and told her the purpose of "exchange authority".
The so-called "exchange authority" can actually be exchanged for points with cash at a ratio of 10:1.That is, ten yuan in cash can be exchanged for 1 point, but only real cash can be used, such as money stored in the bank cannot be used for exchange.
After learning about this ratio, Hao Jian couldn't find any words to express his feelings for a while, and said after a long time: "It costs 50 yuan for a package of compressed biscuits, 100 yuan for a rice ball, and 200 yuan for a catty of jerky? "
"It's not surprising that the scarcity of survival materials is in short supply, leading to price increases, isn't it?"
"Then you must not know about market regulation."
"Our central system stipulates that prices will not fall but will not rise again. Isn't this market regulation?"
This system makes sense, but Hao Jian can't refute it.
Although she now has 165 points, which is enough for her to buy more than a dozen rice balls, but she doesn't want to raise a group of people in vain, so she went to ask them for cash.
Originally, she had a lot of cash on her body, but the backpack was taken away by Li Chang and the others in the car, and she didn't have any money on her body.She asked the system if it could be exchanged for valuables such as gold and silver, and the system also gave the exchange ratio:
100 grams of silver can be exchanged for 3 points, and 1 gram of gold can be exchanged for 3 points.
All in all, gold and silver can be exchanged, but compared to the exchange rate of cash, the exchange rate of gold and silver is shockingly low:
Originally, one gram of silver costs two or three yuan, and one hundred grams of silver costs more than 300 yuan. If converted into points, there can be thirty points, but there are only three points.
The conversion ratio of gold is not much better than that of silver. Originally, the price of a gram of pure gold was more than 330 yuan, but now the depreciation is even worse than that of silver.
After living for so many years, she knows that gold can preserve its value, but she has never heard of it depreciating so much.
Hao Jian summed up another rule of the system: instead of living with money, it is better to fight monsters and upgrade.
If such a system comes from a game company, it must be very popular with non-RMB players.

Peng Mao took out the only 80 yuan he had on him, and Hao Jian said, "Why don't you bring cash when you go out?"
Peng Mao was also very wronged: "Now that I pay with my mobile phone, who still needs to bring cash! The 80 yuan is still for me to go to the market to buy vegetables!"
Hao Jian glanced at the food list on the shelf, and even a pack of spicy sticks cost five points, so she decided to sell him the pack of spicy sticks that was given as a reward for her level, with a 50% discount.For the remaining [-] yuan, give him another pack of compressed biscuits.
Xin Ting took out two pieces of 100 yuan from her body. Although it was not much, Hao Jian decided to buy her some medicine for her hard work in helping deal with the zombies.
She can now buy three over-the-counter medicines a day, and the price of the medicines is basically between [-] and [-] points.Xin Ting's arm was injured so badly that she didn't know whether it was serious or not, so it was best to take some medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
Lian Runing also took out 500 yuan, she thought about it, and walked to Hao Jian's side: "I'll go with you, it's too dangerous for you to go alone."
Hao Jian didn't object, but said to Xin Ting and Peng Mao, "Are you coming together?"
"I'll be with you guys and help you keep an eye on them!" Xin Ting said hastily.Although she thinks that Peng Mao is not a bad person, she has already suffered a loss and dare not judge a person's character from the first impression easily. She is afraid of being alone with men.
Peng Mao didn't know what she was thinking, and hurriedly got up: "I, I don't have any weapons in my hand, and it's dangerous to stay here alone. I'm like Miss Xin, let's keep an eye on you outside!"
In fact, when he saw the two weapons on Hao Jian's body, he really wanted to ask her for one, but he thought that Hao Jian also thought he had no fighting power, and holding a weapon was a waste, so he didn't ask her.
Instead, Xin Ting gave him the fruit knife, and she used the knife left by Li Ge. She felt that she couldn't exert the power of the fruit knife when she was injured, and she kept a knife for protection.
Hao Jian didn't delay any longer: "Then let's go!"
_____
This season is the ripening period of mangoes, lychees and other fruits, and there are many small orchards in this village, which are full of mango trees and lychees.It's just that the fruit trees, which were originally full of fruit, seemed to have been invaded by locusts. The trunks were bare, the branches were broken, and the fruits naturally disappeared.
"They thought it was too troublesome to pick one by one, so they cut off the whole section." Peng Mao explained.
"Why didn't they pull out the roots and take them away? It's too much. If you just pick the fruits, they can grow again in the next year. They will cut off the way for future generations!" Xin Ting said angrily.
"They are thinking about the end of the world. It is not certain whether human beings will have a future. Why should they think about future generations?"
Xin Ting could not refute.
Hao Jian and Lian Runing walked in front, communicating with voices that only they could hear.
"Are you still wary of Peng Mao?" Lian Runing understood Hao Jian's heart from Hao Jian's refusal to give up the crowbar to Peng Mao.
"His words are just one-sided. Who knows if he betrayed the team, so there is no one around him? People are sinister. In this world, I don't believe anyone."
Lian Runing was curious about what kind of environment she had to grow up in to be as insecure as Hao Jian, she looked at her: "What about me?"
"..." Hao Jian looked back at her—if the system hadn't asked me to bind you, maybe I wouldn't have the slightest mood swing if you died in front of me.
Of course, it was impossible for her to say this, and after getting along with her for the past few days, she was not as indifferent as she imagined.
"Except you."
Lian Runing smiled brightly: "Why?"
"Because you are not someone else, you are mine—" Hao Jian paused.
