Chapter 010 is not simple

You two, shut up!" Seeing Liang Zi turn hostile, "Heng Shao" cast a dark glance at the two fashionable women and shouted.

Xu Peng smiled and said, "You all eat, I am not hungry, I will wait for you outside!" After saying this, he turned and left the hall

At this moment, "Heng Shao" and the two fashionable women also came out one after another from their rooms

Seeing this, Liangzi smiled and said, "Alright, I will bring a few bottles of water for them!" Saying this, he walked over to Heng Shao and the others, handing each of them a bottle of water, and then continued, "We have now entered the vast grassland. Everyone take a ten-minute break, and after we go a bit further in, we will gradually start to see prey such as yellow sheep, wild horses, and roe deer!"

Wow! Mr. Heng, the scenery here is absolutely magnificent!" The two women exclaimed.

"Elder brother, what are you doing standing there? Come over and eat. Here, sit next to me!" Seeing Xu Peng standing still, Liang Zi called out, patting the empty seat beside him, indicating for him to sit next to himself

The temporary team they formed was led by Liangzi, with Zheng Zhu and a few others, including "Heng Shao," walking in the middle, while Xu Peng lagged behind. As they walked, Xu Peng occasionally observed Liangzi. This Liangzi undoubtedly possessed the qualities of a formidable leader. If he took a liking to you, he would treat you well; however, if he disapproved of you, regardless of your high status, he would certainly be someone who could turn against you without hesitation.

Liang Zi cast a deep glance at Xu Peng, and suddenly a thought emerged in his mind. He then looked at the two fashionable women who had just mocked Xu Peng with cold sarcasm, and a cold smile appeared in Liang Zi's heart

The air in the countryside is exceptionally fresh, especially when compared to the murky air of the post-apocalyptic world, which is simply incomparable. Xu Peng could not help but take a deep breath. He glanced at the elderly man sitting beside him and then moved a wooden chair to sit next to him.

Xu Peng stood up, smiling gently, and said: "You need not worry, I will not hold you back. Also, I am not much older than you, so there is no need to call me 'big brother'; just call me Xu Peng."

"White Wolf Pack?" The old man was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xu Peng and said: "Deep in the grasslands, there is a pack of white wolves. They are extremely fierce, and the wolf king among them is particularly formidable. It is said that even the beast king in the great forest and the black bear may not be its match. I wonder if this is true or not"

Such individuals may not stand out in times of peace, but in a post-apocalyptic world, they will have a much larger stage.

The old man noticed that Xu Peng seemed not to take his words to heart, and his tone became serious as he said: "It is better to believe that there is than to believe that there is not. When you go hunting on the vast grasslands, be sure not to enter the territory inhabited by the white wolf pack; returning safely is the most important thing!"

The two women spoke somewhat harshly, clearly targeting Xu Peng. Xu Peng furrowed his brows and shot them a cold glance. Meanwhile, Liang Zi, unable to tolerate it any longer, immediately shouted, "Are you two done yet? If you don't want to go, then just get the hell out of here!" He had long found these two women displeasing; what were they so proud of? What were they so arrogant about? They were nothing but two bitches begging to be ridden.

After walking for nearly five hours, just before noon, Xu Peng and the others officially stepped into the vast grassland. As they gazed across the expansive, boundless landscape, Xu Peng finally experienced the feeling of "the sky is vast, and the wilderness is boundless." Among the group, except for Liang Zi, everyone else was entering the grassland for the first time. Upon entering such an open space, everyone felt a great sense of novelty and their spirits were exceptionally high.

"Elder brother, you are up! Hurry over for breakfast!" Upon seeing Xu Peng come out, Liang Zi greeted him with a smile. Xu Peng was quite different from Heng Shao and his group; his demeanor and speech were very calm, unlike Heng Shao and the others, who seemed to consider themselves superior. Liang Zi could sense this, so he was much more courteous to Xu Peng.

Although he is a dandy, he understands a principle: in such a remote and impoverished area, facing these rural ruffians, your status, no matter how high, is of no consequence. Even if you say your father is the commander-in-chief, what difference does it make? Even if you claim your father is the president, they still won't care. If they tell you to get lost, you will have to get lost; what can you do? Can you kill them? Even if you say your father is the president, they still won't care. If they tell you to get lost, you will have to get lost; what can you do? Can you kill them?

On the shoulder of "Heng Shao" rests a black longbow, with arrows hanging at his waist, giving him a more heroic appearance than before. Zheng Zhu remains the same, with a bulging military backpack on his back, the contents of which are unknown. Liang Zi, on the other hand, carries some provisions on his back, enough food for their group for a day, and holds a double-barreled shotgun in his hand, clearly indicating that they are all prepared to set off.

Originally, it was thought that Xu Peng's physical stamina was poor, which was why he lagged behind everyone. However, when they had covered half the distance, Liang Zi noticed that even Zheng Zhu, who had a military background, was showing signs of fatigue. As for "Heng Shao" and the two fashionable women, there was even less to say. Yet, Peng remained calm and composed, maintaining his original pace and following behind the group.

While everyone was admiring the pristine beauty of nature, Liangzi's gaze unexpectedly fell on Xu Peng, who was at the back. Throughout the journey, although Liangzi had been leading the way at the front, he had been paying close attention to Xu Peng's physical condition.

This person is not simple

Moreover, these two women are dressed like this, and they are wearing high heels, yet they want to enter the vast grasslands? Isn't this deliberately putting others in danger? Liangzi actually did not want to take on these two burdens, but there was no choice; he couldn't bear to part with that four to five thousand yuan.

Now entering the grassland, the others had already turned red in the face, their steps somewhat unsteady. "Heng Shao" and the two women had already plopped down on the grass, while only Xu Peng remained in his previous state, his face not flushed, his heart not racing, appearing completely indifferent.

Liang glanced at the two women and said, "Let's go!" He then turned and led the group toward the vast grassland

Heng Shao nodded, then looked at Liang Zi and said: "Alright, there is nothing to worry about now. We can set off!"

"Yes, 'Young Master Heng', we... we will never dare to make you angry again!" The two women felt anxious in their hearts; having finally attached themselves to 'Young Master Heng', a second-generation military officer, they certainly did not want to lose such a powerful backing

"Elder brother, we are about to set off. Are you really okay not eating anything? I'm worried that you won't have enough energy when we reach the grassland." Xu Peng looked so unwell that Liangzi felt a bit concerned.

On the second day, as dawn broke, Xu Peng opened his eyes and got out of bed after a brief wash. Upon exiting his room, he saw Liang Zi, the elderly man, and Zheng Zhu already seated in the hall, where a sumptuous breakfast had been prepared for them.

Heng Shao, we... those two women noticed Heng Shao's anger and looked somewhat aggrieved, feeling even more afraid inside, worried about leaving a bad impression on him. However, they couldn't help but feel confused; after all, they had only exchanged a few words. Was it really necessary for him to be so furious?

"Alright, Xu Ge, then we shall set off now," Liang Zi said with a smile. However, as soon as he finished speaking, a harsh voice suddenly rang out, "Hmph! Speaking so confidently, just look at his condition. If he loses strength after entering the vast grassland, won't he drag us all down?"

"You all are up as well, come over and eat together. After breakfast, we will set off for the vast grassland!" Liangzi said, and seeing that everyone had gathered, he was the first to sit down at the dining table

"Xu Ge, would you like to have a drink? After walking for such a long time, you must be thirsty!" As Xu Peng approached, Liang Zi took off the backpack from his back and pulled out a bottle of water to hand to Xu Peng

Hehe! No problem! Xu Peng smiled and said, "Old man, you have always lived in Hailong Village, which is closest to the vast grassland. I wonder if you have heard of the White Wolf Pack?"

Xu Peng remained still; his physique had already become different from that of ordinary people, and his demand for food was not as strong as that of an average person. After a meal, as long as he did not expend too much energy, he could generally sustain himself for three to four days. This is also why, despite the scarcity of food in the apocalypse, humanity is still able to survive. Furthermore, last night, while resting at the intersection, Xu Peng took out a bit of fruit from his ring space to eat. The energy within his body was essentially in a saturated state.

The elderly man had already eaten a little while preparing breakfast, so at this moment he did not sit at the table, but instead went outside with a pipe in his mouth.

Human beings are all interconnected

"Young man! If you don't have some breakfast, you will lack the energy to walk once you enter the vast grassland!" Seeing Xu Peng come out alone, without having breakfast with the others, the elder kindly reminded him

The one speaking is the enchanting woman, Shaofen, standing next to "Heng Shao." The other woman beside her, Xinya, also spoke up: "Exactly, we shouldn't take someone like him along!"

Thank you for the reminder, elder! Xu Peng said with a smile, and then he asked the elder about the situation of the vast grassland. Before long, Liang Zi and a few others, including "Heng Shao," came out one after another

Is that so? The White Wolf King is that formidable? Xu Peng remarked. However, his expression showed little change; no matter how fierce the Wolf King was, it was ultimately just a beast. Although his current strength had not yet returned to its peak state, he was at least capable of confronting an A-level evolved zombie, so dealing with a mere beast was not a problem.

Xu Peng did not accept it, but shook his head and said, "Thank you! I am not thirsty, you can drink it yourself"

Heng Shao nodded and walked straight to the dining table. Seeing that Heng Shao and the others had taken their seats, Zheng Zhu also sat down.

Seeing that the two of them had calmed down, "Young Master Heng" felt his mood ease slightly and spoke up: "It is not easy for me to come out and have some fun, to relax a bit. Please do not cause me any trouble. From now on, you are not allowed to speak recklessly, understood?"
