Space-time Traveler
Chapter 15 The Waste Land Era 5
Among the scavengers, the oldest are in their forties, and the youngest are only seventeen or eighty years old. This is not due to the earlier development of Western races.
Su Ziyu did not see a person over fifty.
Nearly half of these people's bodies showed some strange wounds, some like scars after burning, and some like hyperplastic stratum corneum, which is more obvious for people who are older, and those who look younger It's a bit normal.Just as Su Ziyu's eyes fell on a twenties-year-old woman with long maroon hair, the other party looked at him with interest, and then suddenly smiled and flicked a kiss at him.
Su Ziyu could not help but looked away.
At this time, Pasha came to his side, glanced at the woman who made a sound of laughter there, and stretched out his hand to get him directly into a big truck.
There are many mechanical parts stacked on the truck, where they should be removed from.
These scavengers also have guns in their hands, but they look more peaceful and do not give people a lunatic feeling like looters.On the other side of the truck were two men, one black and one white, all looked like half-blood, the black man's lips were a little dry, and there was a drainage bubble in the corner of his mouth. After seeing the fish and Pasha, he grinned and said, "Would you like one? This is a good thing!"
Both shook their heads and looked away.
The black man didn't care either, and took a gulp when he ignited himself, and then gave it to the mixed-race white man next to them. They held the gun in their hands, and they looked very tired. After a few gulp, they became a bit dazed.
Decadent, depressed, passable, lifeless.
Su Ziyu saw no hope in their eyes. The scavengers sat in the car and looked like a dead body.
quickly.
They arrived near the camp.
From afar, Su Ziyu's expression was a bit disappointing, because he thought it would be a city, at least a decent town, but it's a pity that it looks like a huge garbage dump.A lot of plastic was piled outside, rusty steel was thrown around randomly, a lot of green-headed flies were circling on the garbage pile, a large circle of rusty iron plates was built into a fence, and someone stood guard with a gun at the gate.
"Let me see you smoking these things again, and I will break your leg!" The angry voice of the German man came.
Su Ziyu looked around and saw that he had pulled something suspected of being a cigarette from the mouth of a 16- to 17-year-old boy, then threw it directly on the ground and stepped on it.
"Who's giving him this stuff! Don't blame me for being merciless!" The German man looked at the others with a serious expression.
At this time a slightly fat middle-aged white man came over.
The German man put on a smiley face the next second and greeted him: "Hi! Bob! Old man! How have you been recently?"
"It's okay." The slightly fat middle-aged white man gave him a hug, glanced at the things in the car, and asked, "How's the harvest? Are there German and Chinese products?"
The German man smiled a little embarrassedly: "Most of the products I found this time are Japanese products. But the quality of Japanese products is also okay and barely usable, isn't it?"
"Japanese goods." The man named Bob smiled a little fake, and said: "All Japanese goods!......"
"You know."
"The quality of Japanese goods is not very good. The ones I have found now are scrapped after a few clicks."
"I can only give you this price..."
Bob stretched out three fingers and saw the German man's eyebrows clenched for a while. He then smiled and patted the German man's shoulder and said, "Old man. The next time I found a Chinese product, I still give you the original Price. I know there is a place where there are a lot of Chinese goods.
"Only you can find alloy steel that can make exoskeleton armor, I will give you this number!..."
The two walked all the way along their shoulders.
The teenager who was reprimanded by the German man at the beginning stooped to pick up the cigarette that was stepped on the ground. He patted the dust on the ground, noticed the sight of Su Ziyu, and pouted his lips. With a warning look, he turned to hide behind the car and took a sip with the fire.The other scavengers also lazily walked into the camp. The long-haired woman with brown hair who kissed Su Ziyu at the beginning also blinked at him, sticking out the tongue with small metal nails and licking her lips. It means a strange smile.
"Far away from her." Pasha's cold voice suddenly sounded: "If you don't want to get sexually transmitted diseases."
The two walked towards the gate.
"Pasha!" A sturdy black woman ran over and gave Pasha a hug: "Thank goodness! You're fine! Great!..."
"I almost thought you..."
Pasha broke away from the other's arms a little embarrassingly, and pointed to Su Ziyu next to him: "He saved me."
"Thank you! Dude!" The black woman threw another hug, Su Ziyu didn't hide, and felt like she was hit by a black bear.
"Marcela. We're going first." Pasha pulled the squid and ran away quickly.
There are many people in the camp.
Pasha should have some status here, a lot of guards are saying hello to her, and there are some scrutiny eyes falling on the body next to Su Ziyu.The streets here are a bit dirty. There are a lot of plastic garbage piled on both sides of the road, and some discarded parts thrown away after being removed. There are two young men who look like Indians on the street opposite. Roasted rat meat, which read-"Ten yuan three."
Currency is issued by chaebols.
However, it is not very convenient to circulate. Other currencies include gold and silver and other precious metals, but the hardest currency is still medicines, especially anti-radiation medicines.There are still many people in the roast mouse stall. Most of them seem to be scavengers. Not everyone will buy it with money. Su Ziyu saw a lame man swapping six roasted big ones with a mechanical watch. mouse.These big mice are bigger than the rabbits in memory. They are only roasted and squeaked with oil. Some people are sitting on the street and nibbling. The drink is a yellow soda-like thing.
"Want to try it?" Pasha quipped.
Su Ziyu shook his head quickly.
Many of the people here have mechanical prostheses, but some people don’t have mechanical prostheses. Su Ziyu saw a young man who was cleaning the street. He was very thin and had a dark complexion. One of his arms was normal. The other arm looked like an eight or nine year old child. After noticing Su Ziyu's sight, he lowered his head and left quickly.
Pasha sighed and said nothing, patting his shoulder and saying, "Go. I will take you to the hotel first."
There is a scrapped car at the door of the hotel.
The logo above is Maserati, which looks tattered and dusty, and there is a row of bullet marks on the surface.The decoration of the hotel is like a mechanical punk. It has a dark and decadent feeling. There are many strange metal parts on the wall. There is an old record player on the counter, which looks like an unusable decoration.
The boss is a man in his fifties. This is the first person Su Ziyu has seen who looks younger than fifty.
"Open a room for him." Pasha said.
They got a lot of spoils from the marauders, but the most valuable box was thrown into the stinky ditch by the squid, and the money that can be brought is some currency medicine.
A young man took Su Ziyu to the room upstairs.
Pasha greeted the old man with a ridiculous look, and pulled him over, lowering his voice: "You are not allowed to let those Bi Chi bother him at night! Have you heard?"
The old man smiled and sorted his clothes and said: "Understood."
Pasha glanced at the staircase dimly, and then went upstairs casually.
