Chapter 150 - 150: The smiling resident
The path to the mysterious forbidden zone was further than Lu Xin had expected.
He was carrying his favorite coarse cloth bag. Although it was not very pretty, it was thick and strong. Even a knife might not be able to cut through it. There was food, guns, bullets, drinking water, medicine, tools for aptitude users, some money, and a piece of gold in it. They were all things that could be used, and when necessary, he could directly throw the bag at people.
However, the only drawback was that it was a little too heavy. He switched from his shoulder to his hand, and then from his left hand to his right hand, so his arm was sore.
However, there was still no end to the path in front of him.
The weather was a little gloomy. Although it was morning, it was gray and a little dark.
He turned around and found that he was in a desolate place. There seemed to be an abandoned village not far away.
The town was shrouded in a thin mist, and it was filled with all kinds of vines and lush trees. It seemed that these plants with unusually strong vitality had directly eaten the village, like green monsters squatting on the horizon.
He could be certain that the path under his feet led to Happy Town.
There were fewer weeds on the path, and there were also some faint car marks that were almost unrecognizable.
However, no matter whether he looked forward or backward, he could not see a single person.
However, in the desolate wilderness on both sides of the path, there seemed to be many eyes secretly looking at him.
However, when Lu Xin stopped and looked in the direction of the gazes, he could no longer feel them.
“This place is so abnormal .
Lu Xin muttered to himself as he looked at his sister, who was sitting on his shoulder, and asked, “”Don’t you think so?”
The younger sister continued to gobble down the candy on Lu Xin’s shoulder. “I like this place.”
Only then did Lu Xin realize that his sister’s judgment of character was different from others.
He turned his head helplessly, trying to find his mother, but she was no longer by his side.
When he first entered this place, she was still following him, but after walking for a while, she disappeared.
It was probably because she was wearing high heels and her feet would hurt when she walked on such a small path .
However, Lu Xin was already used to it. His mother was the most reassuring one to him.
Regardless of whether she was by his side or not, she would definitely come out to help him at the critical moment.
‘The puppet-type ability user has been taken care of, and the other party still has two ability users left. There are also four people who are fully armed. They should not be easy to deal with. Besides, Happy Town itself is a little dangerous, and we might run into some other trouble …’
Lu Xin didn’t like the quiet atmosphere here, so he broke the silence with his sister’s voice. “Plus, before we came out this time, we promised father to ask him for help.”
“So, we might really have to let him out. Sister, are you afraid of him?”
This was a very natural action.
However, in the eyes of the others, Lu Xin was talking to his shoulder and even asking for his opinion.
The younger sister lowered her head from Lu Xin’s shoulder and looked at him. “Of course not, why should I be afraid of him?”
As he spoke, he waved his little fist and said, when I grow up in the future, I’ll definitely make him into a toy and beat him up every day …
“Haven’t you always been afraid of him?” Lu Xin asked curiously.
The younger sister fell silent and stared at Lu Xin for a long while before she giggled.
“I’m not afraid of him …
“You’re not afraid of him?”
“Then who are you afraid of?” Lu Xin asked, confused.
His sister didn’t answer him. When she looked up, she found that she had already sat up straight and was slowly pointing into the distance.
“Brother, look …”
Lu Xin looked in the direction his sister was pointing at and felt a slight headache.
It was as if there was a break, and many people’s shouts rang in his head.
The scene in front of him was like an old TV, flashing all kinds of snowflakes and shadows from time to time.
He saw a large piece of farmland in the distance.
The land was divided into pieces, so neat that they looked like a Rubik’s Cube.
In the farmland, crops were planted one after another, growing very neatly.
The entire piece of farmland seemed endless, but the pieces were unusually clear and distinct.
In the wind that blew toward him, he could smell the sweet scent of the seedlings, mixed with a strange sweet smell.
“Have we arrived?”
Lu Xin thought to himself as he continued to walk forward.
Without a doubt, there were people living here. Lu Xin had never seen such a large piece of farmland other than the farm in Qing gang. The fact that the farm was so neatly planted also meant that there were many people living here.
He slightly perked up and continued to walk along the path.
Before he knew it, the sky had already darkened.
Lu Xin lifted his head to see a bright red Moon Rising from the top of the mountain.
He remembered that it was still morning when he had parted with the lizard. It had only been a short while, but it was already night. “Could it be that I’ve already been gone for a day?”
Lu Xin thought to himself and found it a little strange.
Why didn’t he feel hungry after walking for an entire day?
when I first came in, I had a headache and felt dizzy, but the symptoms were very light.. ‘Il be fine after. while …
after walking for another ten minutes, we came across neat farmland.. don’t know what fertilizer is used, but the seedlings are growing very well .
“The night comes faster here .
the moon also seems to be brighter than other places …
Lu Xin pulled over by the roadside and jotted down everything he had seen and heard in his little notebook.
The higher-ups had already said that this exploration was also a mission, so he had to record it down.
He just didn’t know how much the reward would be.
Back then, lizard had forgotten to ask, so Lu Xin didn’t want to rush him, or else it would seem like he was too eager.
After walking for another ten minutes, Lu Xin saw that the fields around him were no longer crops, but medicinal herbs with pink flowers. The strange fragrance he had smelled before must have come from these herbs. The herbal field was also divided into neat and tidy pieces, which made those with OCD feel very comfortable.
As he passed by a flower field, Lu Xin caught sight of a person.
He was a man who looked a little strong. He wore a light blue one-piece made of coarse cloth and was seriously weeding in the field. When he was far away, his body was buried in the pink flowers, and it was not until he got closer that she noticed him.
From his attire, he looked very similar to the residents of Happy Town that Lu Xin had read about in the information he had read about.
“Hello …”
Lu Xin stopped in his tracks and greeted him.
The man in the field stopped what he was doing and slowly stood up to look at Lu Xin.
He had a kind smile on his face.
Thus, Lu Xin returned the smile and said, ‘”‘1s this Happy Town?”
The man in the field didn’t answer. He continued to smile at Lu Xin.
Lu Xin waited for a while, but he still didn’t answer. The smile on his face was a little stiff, as if it was fixed on his face.
“Thank you! ”
Lu Xin thanked him and continued on his way.
At this time, he had already seen the end of the farmland. Under the thin fog, there was a huge shadow.
In the shadows, he could see some white walls. It seemed like he had finally arrived at a small town.
Above her head, the Crimson Moon had already risen, and the faint red light fell on the flower field, giving off a mysterious beauty.
As Lu Xin made his way toward the town, more and more people began to appear in the surrounding fields.
It was already night time, but they were still farming in the fields. They were all silent and did not hear a single word.
Because they were too quiet, they were often only discovered when they walked up to them.
After that, regardless of whether Lu Xin greeted them or not, they all stood up and turned around to smile at Lu Xin. Their smiles looked like they were carved out of the same mold. If one could calculate the number of smiles, then the angle of their smiles should be the same.
Lu Xin stopped at the edge of the town.
He turned around and saw people looking at him one after another in the field.
They were quiet and neat, like people from the paddy field.
it’s so late and they’re still working. What a bunch of hardworking people .
Lu Xin also looked at them quietly.
Behind him was the small town. However, as he arrived, he realized that the lights in the entire town were not on. Although Qin ran and the others might be here, Lu Xin had no idea where to find them under such circumstances.
So he thought for a moment and walked towards the person closest to him.
It was a girl in her twenties, who stood in the field and looked at Lu Xin quietly.
Her facial features were originally very beautiful, but it seemed that due to years of hard work and exposure to the wind and sun, her skin was somewhat rough, and there were two deep red patches on her cheeks. She was also wearing a light blue one-piece dress. As Lu Xin got closer to her, he could smell a pungent, sour smell coming from her body. This lady must have sweated a lot from work and had not taken a shower for a long time.
Lu Xin looked at the girl, and the girl looked back at him.
The girl had a smile on her face, and her teeth were white and neat.
“I want to ask you about someone …”
Lu Xin looked at the girl and asked softly.
The girl looked at him with a happy smile on her face, not moving.
“This person looks like this .
Lu Xin took out a photo. It was a photo of Qin ran, who had died many years ago. His face was pale and stiff.
The girl looked at him with a happy smile on her face, not moving.
“Alright .
Lu Xin recalled what the lizard had told him before he set off. There were two things he needed to know when dealing with people in the wilderness. One was weapons, and the other was money.
He took out a fifty-yuan bill and handed it to the girl. “Can you tell me?”
The girl looked at him with a happy smile and took the money..
