I Love Little Watermelon

Chapter 32 Acquiring Supplies

The old woman looked mysterious.

This made Yuan Mu Ye a little nervous.

After asking, he waited for the old woman to continue.

The old woman pondered for a moment and said, "If you want to exchange grain, you definitely can't leave during the day."

Yuan Mu Ye was stunned for a few seconds, then he understood what the old woman meant.

In this dark age, grain is a controlled commodity. If you want to move the grain, you definitely can't leave during the day if someone checks.

You can only leave at night.

Li Pang Pang couldn't help but become anxious when he heard this, and said, "If we leave at night, wouldn't it be very dangerous?"

Li Pang Pang's concerns were very reasonable.

From Yun City to Fire City, a hundred kilometers, a long dark night, in those no-man's-lands.

There were countless evil spirits.

Even fierce ghosts exist. It can be said to be very dangerous.

"You don't have to worry about this. When the time comes, you can follow the large group of people to leave Yun City. There will be special cultivators to protect you. Among them are some retired supernatural special forces members, two Huachi realm cultivators, and an Ruqi realm expert."

The old woman spoke slowly, giving the impression that she was about to die at any moment.

But these words gave Li Pang Pang considerable encouragement.

He exclaimed in surprise, "Old woman, are you talking about an Ruqi realm expert? Really?"

"Of course, it's true. Otherwise, how could our black market operate so well? If everyone couldn't take their purchases home, could this black market still be prosperous?"

The old woman's words immediately left Li Pang Pang speechless.

Yuan Mu Ye felt that the old woman was right. If customers couldn't take the products away from such a large black market, so many people wouldn't continue to buy things here.

However, he still didn't understand the cultivators' cultivation levels.

But judging from Li Pang Pang's reaction, he knew that an Ruqi realm expert must be very powerful.

At least relatively rare.

Anyway, Yuan Mu Ye and Li Pang Pang didn't have any cultivation.

Of course, although these things were important, there were still some other things that Yuan Mu Ye needed to confirm. He asked, "Old woman, how much grain can we exchange for these four ghost stones?"

"One ghost stone for a thousand *jin* of grain, which means you can exchange for two tons of grain."

When Yuan Mu Ye heard this, he felt somewhat satisfied.

It's just that he needed grain, and he also needed other things.

So he continued, "We only want one ton of grain. We want to exchange the rest for some other living supplies, such as meat."

"Okay, I'll allocate it to you then. You can also provide a list of what you need."

"If we exchange for meat, how much can we exchange? One ghost stone for one hundred *jin*..."

Exchanging for meat only got you so little.

Yuan Mu Ye thought for a while and said, "One hundred *jin* of meat, and add some other vegetables, oil, and the like, give us some of everything."

"No problem."

The old woman responded.

"At eight o'clock tonight, you take the car to a warehouse in the southern suburbs of Yun City. Load your goods there, and I'll tell you where to gather with the team."

"Okay."

The two left two ghost stones as a deposit and then left the place.

It had to be said that Yun City was still relatively well protected.

During the day, life was basically normal, but by six o'clock in the evening, the crowds gradually decreased, and the streets began to be under curfew.

Some supernatural special forces members had already begun patrolling the streets.

The equipment of these supernatural special forces members was also quite good.

Yuan Mu Ye and Li Pang Pang glanced at them a few times, then drove to the warehouse in the southern suburbs, where someone received them.

Before long, the two checked the supplies, loaded them onto the car, and then were guided to a team.

There were more than a dozen cars here at this time.

More than a dozen people were standing sporadically around the vehicles, and there were also some people inside the cars.

In total, the convoy had about thirty or forty people.

Yuan Mu Ye looked intently, but he couldn't tell who was a cultivator.

He only saw a few people with special guns around their waists, and he guessed that they were supernatural special forces members.

After arriving, suddenly a relatively tall man walked out.

He was a little unkempt, with bloodshot eyes. He looked like he hadn't rested well.

He puffed out his cheeks and said, "Everyone, listen up. I'm Captain Cao, the captain of your escort team this time. I hope you will follow my command in everything. This operation can be said to be very dangerous. As long as you follow the arrangements, we guarantee that we will escort you safely to your destination."

Everyone was silent.

In fact, just looking at their expressions, they were relatively serious and nervous.

Yuan Mu Ye was also a little nervous, but he was more nervous about the supplies in the car.

If the supplies couldn't be delivered safely, then the people in Fire City would face the danger of running out of food.

This was what Yuan Mu Ye didn't want to see.

After Captain Cao finished speaking, everyone said they had no problem.

Then Captain Cao arranged for everyone to get in the car, and Yuan Mu Ye and Li Pang Pang quickly got in the car.

The car drove forward, and before long, it drove out of Yun City.

When in Yun City, there was still some light at night.

Once they left Yun City, it gradually became completely dark outside.

Li Pang Pang lit a cigarette at this time and handed one to Yuan Mu Ye. "Lao Yuan, I hope we get home safely tonight."

"More than a hundred kilometers. At the current speed, it took us two hours to get here, and it might take us three hours to get home."

Or even more.

Yuan Mu Ye didn't say these words.

Li Pang Pang hummed and then said to Yuan Mu Ye, "I'm driving, so you should rest for a while."

"Okay."

Yuan Mu Ye didn't say any nonsense. After finishing a cigarette.

He began to lean on the seat and rest.

He didn't know how long it had been, but suddenly, at this moment, a relatively violent impact suddenly woke Yuan Mu Ye from his sleep.

When he woke up, Yuan Mu Ye subconsciously looked at the time. It was already nine o'clock in the evening.

It was still pitch black outside.

"Lao Yuan, it seems like something happened."

These words immediately made Yuan Mu Ye more alert.

He looked outside intently and found that all the cars had stopped.

This was a woodland, surrounded by dense forests, with a road winding through the middle.

In fact, when you looked at it during the day, there was nothing wrong with it.

But stopping here at night gave people a bizarre feeling.

At the same time, a voice suddenly rang in Yuan Mu Ye's mind, "System prompt: Host, activate the main quest, kill three level-two evil ghosts, and you will receive a heavy reward."

Three level-two evil ghosts?

Yuan Mu Ye felt a tightness in his heart. The system wanted him to kill three level-two evil ghosts, so did that mean that there were many level-two evil ghosts here?
