    Supplies are too important to him. Han Xiao sighed, ordered one hundred and fifty bullets, and was about to pay.

    The bearded man shook his finger, sat on the ground and raised the price, "One hundred and eighty bullets."

    Han Xiao¡¯s eyes were filled with anger, you uncle¡¯s profiteer, you are just raising the price, you will have no money to give birth to a child!

    When the bearded man saw this, he exclaimed exaggeratedly, "Oh, what a scary look. Do you still want to kill me? Come and take a look, there is someone here who wants to kill someone!"

    As soon as he said this, dozens of wanderers gathered around him, some even picked up weapons such as crowbars and iron bars, and stared at him with eager eyes.

    "This is our territory, do you dare to cause trouble?"

    "Okay, you're awesome. One hundred and eighty pills. At this price, I'll keep you alive." Han Xiao was so angry that his teeth itched, and he didn't want to cause more trouble. He squeezed out the words through his teeth, shook his hand and poured the bullets on the ground.  .

    The bearded man smiled proudly and asked people to pick up everything and hand it over to Han Xiao.

    After confirming that the map and supplies were correct, Han Xiao gave the bearded man a middle finger and turned around to leave without wanting to stay any longer.

    At this time, the bearded businessman spoke again, "Hey, do you want to walk out of this forest on your legs?"

    "What, you have a problem?" Han Xiao stopped and said angrily.

    "I have an old pickup truck, do you want it?" The bearded man said calmly, as if the unpleasantness just now had never happened.

    ¡°I can¡¯t afford your price.¡± Han Xiao stabbed him.

    "You can afford it." Big Beard pointed at Han Xiao's backpack, "You have so many bullets, you must have brought a lot of guns, use those guns to pay."

    High-quality firearms are very sought after by rogues, who generally rely on hunting to maintain their food sources. One more good gun means one more hunter.

    The items in Han Xiao¡¯s bag were all the equipment of the Night Owl Team. They were of very good quality, and there were also popular items such as sniper rifles and body armor. It was more than enough to exchange for an old pickup truck, but he shook his head and rejected the bearded man¡¯s proposal.

    The traces left by driving in the forest are too conspicuous. It is basically equivalent to pointing at the pursuer's nose and saying that this is the road he saw without me. If you don't want to race with the helicopter, it is better to walk.

    Moreover, he has another consideration. These firearms are all budding standard weapons. Once a budding team comes to the settlement and discovers the organization's standard weapons, the settlement will suffer disaster. Selling these guns is equivalent to indirect killing.  And he will leave clues of his passage, making it impossible to escape his pursuers.

    Although Han Xiao had just been ripped off by a businessman, he was not so mad.

    The bearded man still refused to give up and wanted to make a few sales pitches, when a bell-like voice suddenly sounded next to him.

    "Kylo, ??you are trying to trick an outsider again!"

    A burly man wearing an animal skin hunting coat strode forward, and the crowds automatically separated as he passed. He was obviously very prestigious in this settlement.

    Bearded Kailuo had a bitter look on his face, "Hu Hongjun, I finally made a deal, please don't meddle in my own business!"

    Hu Hongjun snatched the bullet from the bearded man and handed it to Han Xiao. He said proudly: "What you want is not even worth a few dollars, so I gave it to you. Here, this is your bullet."

    Han Xiao was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hu Hongjun carefully. This man was of yellow race, with a strong build, slightly white temples, and sharp eyes. He was full of heroism in his conversation, and his righteous behavior in returning the bullets immediately made Han Xiao feel good about him.

    "Hey, what should I do?" Kailo shouted.

    Hu Hongjun didn¡¯t look back, ¡°Isn¡¯t it just a little food? I¡¯ll give it back to you tomorrow.¡±

    Kailo was furious. He finally opened the business to rip off customers. You got me a fair exchange. Do you know what business is?

    Hu Hongjun was very hospitable and said: "You are a guest from afar. You look haggard. You must not be used to life in the forest. So, stay at my house for one night and hit the road tomorrow."

    Han Xiao hesitated for a moment and nodded in agreement. He really wanted to take a good rest, and the first impression Hu Hongjun gave him was that of a straightforward and generous man, not like a bad person.  Of course, even if the other party has bad intentions, Han Xiao will not give up.

    The two of them left together, and the onlookers dispersed. Only the bearded Kailo was left, beating his feet and chest. He dared to be angry but dared not speak. There was no other way. Hu Hongjun was one of the hunters in the settlement, and everyone had to rely on him for hunting.  He brought back food, and he was very generous and popular, so he didn't dare to offend him.

    ¡­¡­

    Hu Hongjun took Han Xiao back to his tent. As soon as he opened the curtain and entered the door, he shouted: "An, I have guests, please cook more food today."

    "I know." A woman replied.

      Han Xiao walked into the tent and saw the woman named An, who looked ordinary and wore a simple cloth skirt. Han Xiao noticed that her eyes were dull and she was clearly blind.

    "This is my wife." Hu Hongjun smiled.

    "Hello." An heard the voice and smiled in the direction of Han Xiao. He fumbled for pots, pans, dried meat and wild vegetables, and put them on the simple stone kiln stove in the center of the tent to cook.

    Since the other party was so enthusiastic, Han Xiao was not restrained, sat on the floor and started chatting with Hu Hongjun.

    After a conversation, Han Xiao confirmed that Hu Hongjun had no other intentions and was just being hospitable. He couldn't help but let down his guard a little.

    "I noticed just now that most of the people in this settlement are white people. How can you get together with them?" Han Xiao asked.

    The intelligent species of Aquamarine is human. There are four races in total, black, white, yellow, and Sanu. They are all products of natural selection.  Darwin said that natural selection means that the more dangerous the environment, the stronger the life. The Shanu people are physically stronger than black people.

    "There is no special reason. There was a war at the time, and I happened to meet this group of wanderers. At that time, An was sick and needed care, so he stayed. Although our country and race are different, we are all remnants of the old era and the victims of the subjugation of our country.  Disciple, there is no difference between you and me. We are just showing sympathy for each other and hugging each other for warmth." Hu Hongjun's tone was sighing.

    Planet Aquamarine originally had hundreds of countries. After coming into contact with the interstellar forces, I realized that the existence of so many countries on a planet is a complete waste of limited planetary resources. Failure to unify means endless internal friction. If this continues, when the planet's resources are exhausted,  Eventually, civilization will be trapped and die on the planet, losing the opportunity to enter the universe.

    So, with the help of well-intentioned people, the social environment has undergone drastic changes in the past few decades. Wars, negotiations, economic pressure, through peaceful or non-peaceful channels, great waves have washed away the sand, and finally it has been reduced to only six countries.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the six countries, some choose to join the sprout, and the rest are wanderers.

    The world of Aquamarine is in the throes of transitioning from an old era to a new era. The people whose countries have been annexed, destroyed, and disintegrated are immersed in grief and disillusionment. Everyone hopes that their country can survive, but when the wheel of history feels like  When you have stopped for long enough and need to move on, some seemingly indispensable things can only accept the fate of being abandoned by the times and become a few words left in the history books. To give some simple examples, such as the layoff wave in the early 1990s  , countless iron rice bowls were shattered. Another example is the five thousand years of Chinese history. It was not until the Republic of China that the dynasty system that lasted for thousands of years was destroyed. Before that, the existence of the emperor was something that everyone believed to be a matter of course. Another example is the Western Middle Ages.  Dark religion.

    The progress of civilization is like a surging river, unstoppable. Everyone, everything, and even countries are just sand trapped in the river, drifting with the current.

    People with limited individual power can only vent their grief on the Internet or in parades, or they can be immersed in past national honors and become depressed. The more radical people refuse to accept the invitation of citizens of the six countries, become wanderers in the wilderness, and live together in the wild.  , wanderers account for 30% of the entire planet's population.

    Some warriors who had devoted their blood and sweat to the country used more extreme behaviors to oppose the Six Nations. The Germinal Organization was a behemoth born in this social environment. The idea was to overthrow the Six Nations and share the same hatred. It was the well-deserved leader of the underground world.

    It is easy to maintain the status quo, but reform is always accompanied by pain. Even if it is universal knowledge, there are still die-hards who are unwilling to accept it. Compared with private interests and social progress, there will always be some people who choose the former. After I die, I will not care about the flood, but  These people usually play the role of "resistance" on the road of evolution. After all, selfishness can bring practical benefits, while righteousness is just an illusory belief.  Selfless people are rare animals. Otherwise, "selflessness" would not be called a virtue. Otherwise, there would be no need for the annual "Moving China" selection. It is not just to tell everyone: "Look, there are still good people in the world. You should be good."  Learning from it also saves the organization some trouble.¡±

    Hu Hongjun said: "Since the Battle of Andea, history has been divided into two halves. The past few thousand years are called the old era, and now is the new era. Sometimes I think about it, what's wrong with the past life?  , peace and stability, but a war started because of the so-called internal friction theory. The consequences may be more serious than internal friction. Besides, even if it happens, it will only happen hundreds of years later. Future problems will be solved by future generations. It has nothing to do with us.  thing."

    Han Xiao sighed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
