Chapter 919: Crazy Collection of Crystal Cores (3)
Gu Tongwan wanted to kill the zombies, and if she traveled with them along the way, she would have to reveal it, so she found a suitable reason for herself.
"I have another store in the north of the city, and my friend's house is also nearby. I want to go to the store first and then go to my friend's house." In fact, this was half true and half false. She asked Cai Min and Luo Mei to close the store and rest before the zombie virus broke out. As for the so-called friend's house, it was actually the civil servant community where Liao Yunyun used to live. It was said that Liao Yunyun had just moved out, so the house was idle. She remembered that the community was well planned and the roads were relatively wide, so there was a lot of traffic.
There are naturally more zombies where there are many people. After all, zombies follow the scent of humans. Although the previous tide of zombies went to the west, there is actually a three-way intersection between the west and the north. Even if the tide of zombies finally pours into the west, a small part of them will still go to the north.
Gu Tongwan's goal is to take advantage of the opportunity when the zombies in the north are ready to move because of the zombie tide, and find the first-level evolved zombies during this period. At least her current strength is more than enough to deal with the first-level zombies. As for the second-level zombies, it is better not to fight them head-on unless necessary.
"Don't worry, I will send you home before that." Gu Tongwan saw that Bai Lu remained silent and thought that she was worried about the next trip, so he patted the girl's shoulder and comforted her softly.
Bai Lu shook her head, then clenched the only weapon in her hand, which was an iron rod she found in the hand of a corpse lying in the hotel. She used it to kill zombies. She didn't have enough strength, but she could protect herself. Although she was petite, she was agile and didn't look like a weak girl who needed protection.
Later, during a chat with Chen Xia, I learned that Bai Lu was a "left-behind child" since she was young. Her parents had been working hard in other cities to do business. Therefore, they left her to her grandparents, who raised her. When she was young, she was bullied by the surrounding children because of family reasons. She was a child without parents. For this reason, after entering junior high school, she begged her grandfather to sign up for a Taekwondo interest class outside. She took half a day off every weekend to study. She persisted in this study for nearly four years until the second half of the second year of high school because of the busy schoolwork. Then the end of the world came.
However, the only thing Bai Lu was thankful for was that her grandparents passed away when she was in the second grade of junior high school and the first grade of high school respectively. Therefore, her grandparents did not suffer with her during those years in the apocalypse. As for her parents who lived in another place, since they only came back once a year, Bai Lu had no feelings for them. Even after losing contact with them in the apocalypse, she never thought of looking for her relatives.
"Sister Wanwan, I have an unreasonable request. I wonder if you can agree to it?"
Gu Tongwan vaguely guessed Bai Lu's thoughts, but did not speak. He just nodded slightly and said, "You go ahead."
"I want to act with you. What I mean is, I want to accumulate experience and collect crystal cores. I know that some zombies have crystal cores in their brains, and I need these to exchange for money." Bai Lu's face showed some embarrassment, but her tone was firm.
Gu Tongwan did not rush to agree, but instead raised his own question: "As far as I know, you have a stable job and can still live in the inner circle, which means that you are not under much financial pressure at the moment. Why do you still want to take the risk to collect crystal cores?" Before clarifying Bai Lu's purpose, Gu Tongwan would not do anything risky.
Although Bai Lu behaved well along the way and her personality was not noisy, she was, after all, just a stranger to him.
At this time, even Tan Xin and Chen Xia were waiting for Bai Lu's reply, because they also wanted to know what made this thin-looking girl make this decision.
