Chapter 126: Great Talent Needs No Completion

After getting off the car, Zhang Su took a deep breath of the cold air in the fields and countryside, put the cigarette back into the box, and gestured to Lu Yubo, meaning for the two to separate and go to the other side of the car.

Lu Yubo understood, tucked the cigarette behind his ear, drew his weapon, and walked toward the other side of the car, crouching down.

When Lu Yubo walked to the front of the car, Zhang Su turned around and quickly circled from the back of the car to the other side.

At the same time, he heard the sound of *slap* landing outside the RV window. A figure turned and ran, only to see someone walking toward him from the front of the car. He turned, and another person blocked the remaining retreat.

"Don't move, move again and I'll kill you!"

Zhang Su stood in an extremely clever position, shining a flashlight along the pistol toward the teenager who was hunched over standing by the car. He had always carried the pistol on him, just without bullets, but at this moment, it was more than enough for deterrence!

"Don't shoot, don't, don't, I have no malice!"

Seeing the pitch-black pistol, the teenager raised his hands and hurriedly begged for mercy, without any thought of resistance. Judging by the excellence of this group's equipment, he didn't doubt the authenticity of the pistol, and he couldn't afford to gamble!

"Face the car, raise your hands and put them on the car, stand still!" Zhang Su didn't relax at all, staring tightly at the teenager.

"How could there be someone..."

Yu Wen stood on the roof of the fertilizer store and looked at Zhang Su and the others, surprised: "Mr. Zhang, this is my dereliction of duty..."

"Teacher Yu, you really have to be punished this time!"

Zhang Su had previously said that the trio of Zhao Dezhu, Yu Wen, and Yu Qing could only take two portions of supplies from the team, but later Yu Wen showed good fighting ability, and Yu Qing was also working hard to improve, so he didn't execute it, but this omission must be punished.

The movement outside the car wasn't small, making everyone in the car who was watching the cartoon unable to sit still and run off the car.

"This... Brother Su, is this person trying to sabotage?"

Zheng Xin frowned and looked at the teenager who appeared inexplicably.

"No, I didn't!" Before Zhang Su could speak, the teenager defended himself: "I... I was watching the cartoon, don't frame me."

*Puff... *

"Haha..."

Hearing the teenager's words, several people couldn't help but laugh. This person's heart was too big, sneaking outside the car window just to watch a cartoon?

But thinking about it, everyone felt a lingering fear. If this guy wasn't watching a cartoon, but was plotting something, wouldn't they have been done for?

This time, even Zhang Su didn't notice someone approaching at the first moment, because the TV and everyone's laughter covered up the subtle sound.

"Stop talking nonsense, this reason is too damn weak. Hurry up and confess, what are you trying to do? If you don't say it, I'll kill you!"

Lu Yubo took a grain sampler and poked the teenager's back several times, even piercing his clothes, making a *puff, puff* sound.

"Eh, ah, it hurts..."

The teenage boy twisted and turned, urgently saying: "I really was watching the cartoon, don't bully me just because there are many of you. Damn, if you have the guts, fight me one-on-one!"

"Damn..."

Zhang Su waved his hand at Lu Yubo, who couldn't help but curse, and said: "He really was stealing a look at the cartoon, he didn't lie..."

Seeing everyone looking at him with suspicious eyes, Zhang Su explained: "If he hadn't been amused and suddenly laughed out loud, I wouldn't have discovered him either. Kid, your movements are very light. Come, tie your hands and feet, and come to the car to chat with me!"

After saying that, Zhang Su took out two zip ties from his pocket and threw them at the teenager's feet.

The teenager turned and saw more than ten men and women, knowing he couldn't escape, so he squatted down angrily and tied his wrists with his hands and mouth, saying: "Feet can't be tied, otherwise are you going to carry me?"

"Fine, go, get on the car!" Zhang Su smiled helplessly, shook his head at the teenager, and then turned back to look at the roof of the fertilizer store: "Teacher Yu, cheer up, you're punished until the second half of the night, and also one less meal tomorrow!"

Yu Wen stood at attention and said solemnly: "Guarantee to complete the mission!"

Upon getting on the car, Zhang Su paused and said to Wu Lue: "Luezi, you follow Teacher Yu to keep watch. Now that there are many of us and we occupy a large area, it's hard for one person to watch everything. One person watches one side, understand?"

"Yes, understood, Brother Su!"

Wu Lue answered very seriously and then ran toward the stairs inside the fertilizer store.

The group returned to the vehicle and gathered in a circle to look at the young man. He was wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket, his face was streaked with black and yellow grime, and there were hardened clumps of snot under his nose. His hair was matted into clumps, the rotten cotton shoes on his feet didn't even match, and he was as filthy as a person could possibly be.

"Eh, how old are you, what's your name, where are you from?"

Zhang Su sat on the sofa and asked the teenager.

The dirty teenager twisted his body somewhat unconvincingly, stuck out his neck and said: "Before, they all called me Kun Ye..."

"Kun your mother's target, speak properly!"

Lu Yubo exploded instantly. The half-grown kid hadn't even reached adulthood, yet he called himself "Ye" (Master/Grandpa), which was simply reversing the natural order.

"My name is Pang Dakun, I'm seventeen this year, I'm from Shuwa Village..."

Perhaps seeing Lu Yubo's fierce look, the teenager reported his family background honestly, albeit extremely reluctantly.

"Pang Dakun..." Zhang Su chewed on the name, then said in surprise: "Didn't they say the survivors in this village all went to the other side? How come you stayed on this side?"

Today he heard clearly from the villager across the river that the survivors from the villages on this side of the river had all gone over. How could a half-grown kid suddenly pop up?

Hearing Zhang Su's words, Pang Dakun's face changed, and he pouted: "They aren't human, they killed my grandpa, a bunch of dog things, I'll kill them sooner or later!"

"Oh?"

Zhang Su looked at the crowd, not expecting there to be a story in this!

"What's the matter?"

Pang Dakun sniffed and told his story aggrievedly. Perhaps because of his shallow knowledge, many places were unclear, but with the understanding ability of Zhang Su and the others, they still understood the meaning.

Pang Dakun dropped out of junior high school, didn't go to the city to work, and lived in the village with his grandpa all year round.

The day before the disaster broke out, Pang Dakun went to Qincheng to handle some business and was trapped in Qincheng and couldn't return. Later, the Shuwa Village survivors organized an evacuation and didn't take Pang Dakun's grandpa. After he sneaked back a few days later and learned of this news, he returned to the village and saw that his grandpa had already died in the courtyard...

"Those dog things aren't human, they didn't care whether my grandpa lived or died, they really aren't human!"

Pang Dakun cried very sadly.

"How do you know your grandpa wasn't infected and was still alive when the disaster broke out?"

Zhang Su asked.

"My little brother told me, he ran to my house to see." Pang Dakun answered quickly and wiped his face, which made it even messier.

"Child, don't cry, where do you live now?"

Tan Huajun took out a wet wipe and gave it to Pang Dakun, telling him to wipe his face.

Everyone didn't judge the fact that the villagers didn't take Pang Dakun's grandpa when they evacuated. According to what Pang Dakun said, his grandpa suffered from leg disease and had difficulty moving. Everyone knew what a zombie attack was like; they might not even be able to take care of themselves, so how could they take care of an elderly person with leg disease?

This was sorrow, helplessness, and regret that couldn't be persuaded.

"Thank you, Auntie, I live in the village..."

Pang Dakun wiped his face messily and became a bit cleaner. Suddenly thinking of something, he looked at Zhang Su and said: "Uncle, you guys are so amazing, can you teach me how to fight? I want to avenge my grandpa!"

A row of black lines appeared on Zhang Su's forehead. He thought to himself, why can't this guy speak properly? He actually became an uncle generation, but thinking that he called Old Tan Auntie, calling himself Uncle was quite appropriate.

"Pang Dakun, I can understand your hatred for those people not saving your grandpa, but I want to ask, why do you blame others? What were you doing at the time? Your own relatives, you didn't take care of them yourself, yet you expected villagers who were unrelated to take care of them? Are you dreaming?"

Pang Dakun was stunned after hearing Zhang Su's words, his face changing colors, not knowing what to say.

"Eh, little guy, you don't have a job, why did you go to Qincheng to wander? To see beauties?" Zhao Dezhu asked.

Pang Dakun's eyes rolled, and he lowered his head embarrassedly: "Wanted to buy something, Grandpa didn't have money, so I..."

"Oh, went to steal things, right?" Zhang Su guessed that this kid definitely didn't go to do anything good.

Sure enough, Pang Dakun continued to lower his head without refuting. With his personality of exploding on the spot if he said something wrong, he must have guessed right!

"Brother Su, this kid looks like a guy who is disliked by people and dogs in the village, don't bother with him."

Lu Yubo looked at Pang Dakun with a bad face. In his view, this was a low-class little hooligan. Like him, at least he had a decent job, and the money he earned was enough to eat and drink.

"Who said I'm disliked? I have more than a dozen little brothers, they all call me Kun Ye, you aren't allowed to talk nonsense!"

Pang Dakun pointed at Lu Yubo angrily.

"Hmm?" Zhang Su paused, frowned and said: "Where are the zip ties on your hands?"

"Untied!" Pang Dakun moved his feet and kicked the zip ties that bound his hands from behind.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Eh, damn, kid, you have some skills..." Zhang Su scratched his head, stood up and walked to Pang Dakun, saying: "Stretch out both hands and put them well."

"Oh."

Pang Dakun felt Zhang Su's pressure and obediently stretched out his hands, and then was tied up again.

"Come, untie it for me to see."

Zhang Su stared at Pang Dakun with great interest.

"This is my unique skill, I don't even teach my little brothers, you can't look!"

Pang Dakun said seriously.

*Slap. *

After the words fell, he was hit on the back of the head.

Lu Yubo glared at him sideways: "How are you talking to our Big Brother? If he tells you to do it, do it quickly, or I'll tie up your little bird!"

*Puff. *

A group of women couldn't help but laugh, all looking at the shameless Lu Yubo with strange eyes.

Pang Dakun was annoyed to death by this fierce person, and began to show off his unique skill with reluctance. Only then did he see his wrists and fingers bend into an exaggerated arc, and then he didn't know how he used his fingernails to fiddle with it a few times, and he really pushed the zip tie out bit by bit!

"So this thing isn't one-time use apart from cutting it... Pang Dakun's technique shocked me greatly."

Zhang Su was shocked by Pang Dakun's technique.

"Brother Su, he must be a habitual thief..."

Zheng Xin said with a strange expression.

Zhang Su nodded. It seems this half-grown kid who hung out in the village every day wasn't a greenhorn, and had really figured out some crooked ways, so he continued to ask: "Don't tell me your unique skill is untying zip ties. This counts as a fart, it's not worth a dog's shit."

"You're the one who's not worth a dog's shit, I know a lot!"

Pang Dakun became energetic when he saw Zhang Su looking down on him, but after cursing, he shrank his head, and sure enough, a slap swung from behind, sweeping over his head with a *whoosh*.

"Damn, you still dare to dodge!" Lu Yubo missed the hit, rolled up his sleeves and was about to teach Pang Dakun a lesson, but was stopped by a look from Zhang Su.

"Know a lot? Come, tell me all about it, let's see how majestic you are." Zhang Su said with a smile.

Pang Dakun looked at everyone around him, stuck out his neck and said: "My unique skill can't be shown for free, there must be a reward!"

"What do you want?"

Zhang Su asked.

Pang Dakun's eyes rolled around, staring at the Corgi crouching at Zhang Su's feet: "I want this dog, the dog at home died before!"

"That won't do, Good Luck is a member of our team, not just a dog. Change to another one." Zhang Su waved his hand and rejected Pang Dakun's request.

"Ah, dogs are also members of your team, oh..." Pang Dakun scratched his oily head, saw the thermos cup placed on the windowsill, and said: "I want that, I've always wanted to give Grandpa a thermos cup. I originally planned to go to the city to steal, oh no, buy one for Grandpa this New Year, is that okay?"

"Old Tan, what do you think?"

Zhang Su remembered that this cup was Tan Huajun's.

Tan Huajun nodded, having no objections. There were still many such cups on the car, all brought out from Yihe Car Dealership.

"Alright, the owner of the cup agrees, you can show it."

Zhang Su said to Pang Dakun.

"Showing it is impossible, but I can talk about it, for example, climbing houses and walls, opening various locks, physical locks, electronic ones don't work. The one I'm best at, hehe..."

Pang Dakun smiled a bit embarrassedly, then continued: "My hands are fast, I know how to steal things."

Zhang Su looked at Pang Dakun with some disbelief, questioning: "You really know these crafts?"

"Brother Su, I think he's just a braggart. How can a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid know so much." Lu Yubo shook his head.

Not just him, many people also had suspicious expressions. Mainly because Pang Dakun's age was there. Many crafts need to be polished by time, such as lock picking. With his living environment and age, how many locks could he have seen?

Unexpectedly, Pang Dakun saw everyone's eyes and just curled his lips and smiled proudly.

"I met my master when I was ten. He said I had extraordinary talent and let me learn skills from him. Once I learned them, I wouldn't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of my life, so I learned from him. Hmph, later, even if my parents didn't give me money, I still had food and drink!"

Zhang Su nodded thoughtfully. He was very clear about how terrifying talent was. As the saying goes, great talent needs no completion. True talent doesn't need too much training at all, just like flawless jade doesn't need carving.

However, Pang Dakun's master's words are worth thinking about. Once you learn this skill of stealing chickens and dogs, either you keep stealing, with no capital and huge profit, or you get caught and go in to step on a sewing machine. No matter which one, you really don't have to worry about food and drink.

In case you get killed by someone during the act of stealing, you still don't have to worry about food and drink...

"Kid, who said you can't show those crafts? The driver's door is locked, go open it and let me see!"

Zhang Su pointed to the RV door.

Pang Dakun showed a look of disdain and said: "Uncle, this question is too low-level. Kun Ye, no, I'll let you see the world today!"

The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Yu Wen and Wu Lue looked curiously at Zhang Su's group walking off the car again, not knowing what they were going to do.

Soon, the group came to the car door.

Pang Dakun saw more than ten pairs of eyes staring at him, smiled *hehe*, pulled a soft iron wire from his sleeve, jumped lightly onto the tire, and started working under the light of the flashlight.

*Click. *

In about half a minute, the RV driver's door opened with a sound.

I'm back, haha. The first thing is to update, but the computer had a problem, the system occupied 100% of the disk, making me unable to type. I restarted several times before it was okay...
