Chapter 187: Bounty

~11 min read 2,052 words

"They play with explosives, we'll let them eat bullets!"

Lu Yu's killing intent was strong.

The murderous intent in Zhang Su's heart was no less than half of Lu Yu's, but as the leader of a twenty-person team, he still had to have the city government he should have, and some words didn't need to be hung on his lips.

He reached out and patted Lu Yu on the shoulder and said, "Our top priority now is to figure out where the people from Beita Camp are hiding!"

When this problem was raised, everyone in the room was speechless.

With the help of local Wang Xingui, several people drove around for several days, consumed more than half a tank of oil, and ran a full hundred kilometers, but they didn't find any traces of the group from Beita Camp.

There were only two possibilities: either they moved far away from this area of villages to live in a farther place, or someone among them was naturally good at hiding, taking everyone to hide in a village and staying quietly, without going out, without burning fire, without lighting lamps, and without making a sound.

Since the other party could run to Tianmayu to set up explosives, the possibility of living in a farther place was basically ruled out!

"One explosion certainly won't be their final goal. The grudge has been formed. They certainly know that this action can't destroy us, but will only breed hatred, so maybe there will be other actions later!"

Zhang Su analyzed very firmly.

"Big brother is right. The person who can make explosives certainly knows how powerful it is. They didn't think about taking our lives directly. It seems they intend to fight a protracted war with us?"

"Woof!"

Zhang Su was really angry, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart. He had a feeling of being watched by a poisonous snake in the dark, and he must eliminate the crisis as soon as possible!

After recuperating in the camp for two days, Zhang Su asked people to fill the destroyed road with sand and soil. Although it was not flat, it ensured that vehicles could pass normally.

Zhang Su gritted his teeth and looked at Zhong Xiaoshan, saying: "Does taking out a thousand catties of grain have a big impact on us?"

"The grain you brought back recently is quite a lot, the camp's inventory is sufficient, taking out a thousand catties of grain will have an impact, but it can be borne, and the rest of the grain is enough for two months!"

This trip was not to trade, Zhang Su wanted to personally announce the bounty.

He couldn't transmit signals through FM radio, as that would attract unnecessary attention!

Corgi Lucky had already explored this road once in advance and found no hidden dangers, but driving out of the camp again inevitably made people feel uneasy.

At the same time, the camp's protection was further strengthened, but no one was sent out to investigate. Even he had fallen, and he was not at ease sending others out. Don't wait for them to fail to find any news and lose their own people!

Lucky nodded and ran out with a *whoosh*. She knew what she should do.

Everyone looked at each other. Was this possibility not there? What if there were explosives on the road?

These days, Lucky had been patrolling in the mountains and forests, especially in areas where people walked more, she would pay attention, but she didn't expect problems on the road they traveled every day. It seemed that the focus needed to be shifted.

Zhong Xiaoshan didn't know what Zhang Su wanted to do with the grain, but answered truthfully.

Thinking of this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Zheng Xinyu pointed to Lucky squatting beside her and said: "Let Lucky go and check the situation on the road!"

What needed to be done at this time was protection, not giving the other party any more opportunities, and then giving the other party a thunderous blow after they had recovered a bit!

Perhaps the people from Beita Camp had temporarily retreated, perhaps the strengthened protection had worked, and it had been calm for a few days.

"Beita Camp is a tumor, it must be removed!"

"I want to issue a bounty, let Xidaying and United Village come to help find the people from Beita Camp. Unless they hide completely, as long as they show their heads, just go to die!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment. What did solving Beita Camp have to do with the inventory?

Zhao Dezhu also expressed his thoughts.

Three days after the explosion, Zhang Su didn't stay in the camp, took Lu Yu, Qi Xiaoshuai, and Tan Huajun, and the four of them drove the Mercedes-Benz RV, driving carefully onto the main road, and drove toward United Village.

Zhong Xiaoshan nodded on the side: "Their purpose was just to blow you up, so that we would fall into self-endangering chaos. The people from Beita Camp likely arranged a backup plan. Those explosives were just one link!"

"Wh, wh, what? A thousand catties of grain to reward the hiding place of the villagers of Beita Camp? Big brother, what's wrong with you?"

When Wang Xingui heard Zhang Su's words, he couldn't believe it.

A thousand catties of grain didn't sound like much, but if saved a little, it was enough for fifty people to eat for more than half a month. Even United Village, which had relatively rich grain reserves, valued this bounty very much.

"Don't worry about so much, anyway, this is the price. It can also be replaced with other daily necessities, medicines, clothes, etc., as long as the news is true, it's all negotiable! Here, the frequency has been adjusted. If there is news, press the talk button directly to speak!"

After saying that, Zhang Su handed Wang Xingui a walkie-talkie. They had plenty of these in the camp. The batch they scavenged from the communication equipment store had a very long communication distance. As long as there was no strong interference, the limit could reach ten kilometers.

"Hey, hey, okay!"

Wang Xingui took the walkie-talkie and nodded repeatedly.

"That's it, you guys hurry up, I'm going to Xidaying Village!"

Zhang Su sat in the car, and after conveying the news, he turned around and left.

"Brother Guizi, Yama has injuries on his face. They wouldn't have suffered a loss in the confrontation with Beita Camp, would they?"

After the RV left, someone from United Village gathered around Wang Xingui and whispered.

Yama was the nickname they secretly gave Zhang Su, mainly because he was too scary at the beginning, and his style of killing without blinking made people remember him, thus winning this elegant nickname.

Wang Xingui subconsciously touched the part of his face where Zhang Su was injured and shook his head: "I don't know, but I feel it's not that simple. If there was a confrontation, they might not be able to find Beita Camp's hiding place if they pursued it..."

"Then what could be the problem... they wouldn't have been ambushed by people from Beita Camp, would they?"

Someone looked astonished.

Wang Xingui nodded thoughtfully: "This is very possible. Otherwise, with Yama's equipment, it's impossible not to beat that group of Beita Camp's bastards. Something is going to happen, something big is going to happen in Niuquanzi Town."

"Then what should we do, Brother Guizi, are we helping Yama and the others?" A villager asked.

"Of course we have to help!" Wang Xingui didn't speak, but a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties beside him took the conversation: "That group of scourges from Beita Camp seems to be biting people everywhere like mad dogs. We can't do anything about them, but helping Yama investigate is within our power!"

"Right, my uncle is right!"

Wang Xingui nodded in agreement. The person who spoke was none other than his second uncle.

"We must not only help Yama, but also help with all our strength. Don't look at Yama killing people without blinking, but he is actually very clear about love and hate. Have you seen him make things difficult for us? This is a big thigh. If we can hold this thigh, life will be much better in the future!"

"No more nonsense, let's act. Let everyone put down their work, do it secretly, and pay attention to safety!"

"Alright."

"Yes!"

The villagers of United Village moved out in unison. Electric scooters, motorcycles, small vans, and even bicycles were dispatched.

Zhang Su left United Village not long after and arrived outside Xidaying Village.

From afar, he saw the roadblocks piled up on the bridge. Compared to when they came over, the number of roadblocks was more than before, and there were wooden boards with nails on the ground, all-round protection.

If a car didn't have eyes and wanted to rush the pass, the end would be very miserable.

Sitting in the car, Zhang Su took out a professional walkie-talkie, pressed the talk button and said: "Hey, hey, can you hear me, Xinyu?"

"There is sound, Brother Su, OK!"

A moment later, the walkie-talkie received an echo.

"Brother Su, the effect of this batch of military walkie-talkies is really awesome. The straight-line distance from here to Tianmayu is six or seven kilometers, right? It can still talk."

Lu Yu sighed.

Zhang Su held the walkie-talkie and said: "Lüzi said the limit communication distance can reach twenty kilometers, but that requires reaching it at sea or on the grassland. It's the limit for us to have ten or so kilometers in this area!"

Just as he was talking, Zhang Su saw Ma Changshou leading people out of the village, walking hurriedly.

"Boss Zhang, what wind blew you here!"

After the disaster broke out, there were basically only cars going from south to north, and very few from north to south. Ma Changshou learned that the Mercedes-Benz RV had arrived, put down his work, and rushed to the entrance of the village with people.

"Old Village Chief, I'm here to see you!"

Zhang Su and the others got out of the car.

Ma Changshou saw the automatic rifles slung behind the shoulders of the few people who got out of the car, and the leader hanging grenades on his waist, and his lips trembled, greeting him with a smile.

"I'm an old bone, where is there any place worthy of Boss Zhang's trip? Is there any place you need me?"

The villagers following Ma Changshou didn't feel embarrassed because the village chief was flattering, but because Zhang Su and the others had cold expressions, they were a bit scared, not knowing what had happened.

"Do you know Beita Camp in Niuquanzi Town?"

Zhang Su didn't mean to chat with people and asked directly.

"I know there is a village called Beita Camp in Niuquanzi Town, what's wrong?"

Ma Changshou looked confused.

"Their people caused damage in my place. I am looking for those guys. I went to Beita Camp, it was empty, and dozens of people were nowhere to be found. If you know their whereabouts, please give me a letter. As long as the news is true, a thousand catties of grain will be rewarded."

While speaking, Zhang Su handed the walkie-talkie to Ma Changshou, and added under the other party's surprise: "If you don't want grain, you can also exchange it for other daily necessities, medicines, clothes, etc., no problem!"

"Bo, Boss Zhang, you guys... this grudge is not small, right?"

Ma Changshou hurriedly took the walkie-talkie, with a questioning look on his face. A thousand catties of grain for a piece of news was a big deal.

"Just like that."

Zhang Su smiled faintly, didn't elaborate, pointed to the bridge and said: "How is your business here recently?"

Ma Changshou obviously felt that Zhang Su didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask more, clutched the walkie-talkie tightly, shook his head and sighed: "I heard that a force called the Survivor Alliance appeared in Qincheng, which gathered half of the survivors in Qincheng together. In recent days, fewer and fewer people have left the city, and there is no business."
