Chapter 781 Source Fire City, Garbage Dump
"Sister, look what this is!"
She has braids and a few freckles on her cheeks.
Wearing a shabby coat.
The girl excitedly pushed open the cabin, quickly closed it and walked quickly to the wooden bed.
The woman with closed eyes on the bed opened her eyes.
"Xiaodie, you're back." The woman forced a smile.
The girl called Xiaodie took out two pieces of bread from her arms.
The outer shell is light yellow, and the lower half of the bread is milky white and looks quite appetizing.
"Where did you get the white bread?" The woman was stunned.
"Given by the boss!"
Xiaodie spoke excitedly and took out a small cloth bag from her arms.
After untying the bag, 20 copper plates stained with oil fell on the table. "This is today's wages. Xiaomei didn't come today, so I did her share. The boss said I was quick at work and gave me a few more coins." !”
"Also, today is my lucky day. I sold quite a few bracelets!"
The tinkling copper coins fell on the table, which sounded quite pleasant.
"It would take me seven or eight days to earn this much money." The woman's face showed a bit of relief, and she smiled more and more, "Xiaodie has grown up."
"Of course." The girl raised her neck proudly, "Sister, I can buy medicine for you again soon!"
"No rush, no rush." The woman replied with a faint smile.
"I'm going to save the money first."
Xiaodie opened the bag, grabbed the copper coins with her other hand and put them into the bag.
"Wait!" Suddenly, the woman's tone changed.
"Sister, what's wrong?"
Xiaodie flicked her wrist.
"come here."
"Wait, let me pack the things first."
"Come here!"
The woman spoke anxiously, her voice several times more serious.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Xiaodie said weakly.
"Don't make me repeat it a third time, come here." The woman stared at her with sharp eyes.
The girl was silent and slowly approached.
The woman tried to stand up, but Xiaodie quickly stepped forward, half-helped her up, and leaned against the head of the bed.
"Pull up your sleeves," the woman said.
"sister……"
"Do you still have a sister like me in your eyes? For the last time, tease her."
Xiaodie bit her lip and slowly turned up her sleeves.
The texture of gray and dark intertwined colors is like a tattoo, printed on the forearm.
The shape is random and a bit ferocious, and it seems to have independent consciousness, as if it is breathing slowly!
"You went there again?!"
the woman shouted sharply.
Xiaodie bit her lip and didn't refute.
"Did I ever say, don't go there, don't go there!" The woman gritted her teeth, her pale face gradually turning red, "Do you still see me as a sister in your eyes?"
"I..." After being scolded like this, Xiaodie's eyes were slightly red, "I just want to save money as soon as possible so that I can buy purification liquid and allow you to have surgery as soon as possible."
"Do I need it?" The veins on the woman's neck popped out and she gritted her teeth, "Do you want to make me angry to death?!"
"Who asked you to make your own decisions and run to the garbage dump? You..."
After a pause, her brain leaned back.
Just speaking so loudly made her body unable to support herself, her chest heaved and she gasped several times.
"Sister." Xiaodie was so frightened that she quickly stepped forward and patted her back.
Gradually, the woman's face turned pale again. Her lips trembled, and she stretched out her dry palm to grab the girl's forearm.
"Xiaodie, don't go there anymore. I know my illness myself. That place is full of void turbulence and pollution, and there is also the Qinghe Gang. If nothing happens once or twice, sooner or later something will happen."
The woman's voice was slightly choked, "I am already very incompetent as a sister. Please make me feel better."
"Sister." Xiaodie's eyes turned red.
"Honestly, how much did you earn today?" the woman took a few breaths and asked.
"Three hundred." Xiaodie said weakly.
"How much?!" The woman was stunned.
"I picked up a shadow crystal and sold it for a lot of money."
Xiaodie wiped the corner of her eyes and said with a slightly excited tone, "It's not just me, I heard that many people picked it up. Mine is just a small one. Sister, please remember A Le. I heard that her brother picked up a big one and sold it. 20 silver moon coins!"
"Hiss." The woman took a breath.
1 silver moon coin is equal to 100 iron and copper coins!
Moreover, silver moon coins are made of normal materials and carry far less pollution than iron and copper coins, so this ratio generally needs to be increased.
Even so, 20 silver moon coins are equivalent to 2,000 iron and copper coins!
Even when a woman is able-bodied, it takes more than two years to earn it!
"Don't worry, sister, everyone is picking it up. I am so small and inconspicuous." Xiaodie assured.
The woman's face softened slightly, but she was still stern, "We can't go there anymore, the garbage dump is too dangerous. Take the money tomorrow and go to the inner city to buy a bottle of purifying liquid to remove the pollution from your body."
"sister……"
"Stop retorting and go to bed early."
"knew."
Xiaodie sighed slightly and took out her things and put them away.
Left pocket, right pocket.
Her expression changed slightly, and she finally took off her ripped coat and rummaged through it carefully.
"What's wrong?" the woman asked.
"Broken, I dropped something in the dump!"
"Let's look for it later."
"No, it's a coupon for purifying liquid. It can save a lot of money, and it's about to expire!!" The girl was anxious.
"This..." The woman was stunned.
"I probably know where it might have fallen. I'll go look for it while the dumpster is still closed. Don't worry, if I really can't find it, I'll be back right away."
The girl picked up her things and left in a hurry.
"you……"
The woman hesitated to speak, and finally sighed helplessly.
——
Xiaodie put on her hood and hurriedly walked out.
It was already entering the Night Source Fire City, but the temperature was not as hot as the name suggests, but instead brought a biting coldness.
The girl tightened her thin clothes and hid her face under her hood.
Her home is remote, but no garbage dump is more remote.
It is said that this place is connected to a stable void point, and people's garbage will occasionally be destroyed here.
More often, the node will be opened and the "void treasure" will be lured down from the other end.
If you are lucky, you can catch a lot of treasures, but of course the probability is extremely small.
Like this "shadow crystal", it is a relatively rare "big harvest".
Although most of the money was taken away, the remaining small portion was enough to make a lot of money for these "scavengers".
There are two "garbage dumps" and one "void dump" in Source Fire City.
The so-called void field can also be understood as a higher-level "garbage dump."
There is no doubt that the garbage dump is full of emptiness and pollution.
Accumulated over the years, pollution cannot be underestimated.
At her level, staying here for too long would be tantamount to suicide.
Xiaodie quickened her pace and soon arrived at the entrance.
After registering her identity, she walked quickly towards the direction in her memory.
News of the Shadow Crystal spread, so at this point, there were still a large number of scavengers rummaging around at the risk of being contaminated.
She came to the place in her memory.
A hill-like garbage dump filled with various objects.
"I found a small piece of crystal here and left happily."
"Maybe he moved too much and things fell out of his pocket."
"Ah, found it!"
Among the ruins, she saw the corner of a coupon.
Pull away all kinds of garbage.
She reached for it.
Just touched.
The girl froze in place in fear.
The flyers were picked up, and the trash was peeled away, revealing a pale face - a face like a dead person.
Wow——
Look at the touched coupon again, along with the small area of garbage around it.
Turned into a shadow... dissipated in the wind, as if it had been contaminated by some kind of force, leaving only the outer shell. Once an external force touches it, the structure will completely collapse.
