Rotting Land: Survive-Chapter 338 - 337: First Transport Contact (Part 4)
Continuing the idle chat on some "trivial" and "irrelevant" topics for a while, just as Dai Sha was getting bored and ready to "return home" to enjoy the "pleasures" again, a guard on duty at the passage suddenly ran over and said, "Boss, Brother Biao!"
Sang Biao raised an eyebrow and noticed the unfamiliar face. After thinking for a moment, he remembered that these two were the guards he temporarily assigned today.
After all, most of the main force had been sent to guard the four city gates, so the defense inside the city was somewhat stretched thin. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"What’s the matter?" Changing from his respectful tone while chatting with Dai Sha, Sang Biao’s eyebrows raised in impatience.
"Y-yes, yes~" Seeing Sang Biao’s change in expression, the subordinate got tense immediately.
Honestly, he hadn’t planned to "stir up trouble" just then; he just thought it’s a suitable moment to "report the situation" when he saw Dai and Sang chatting happily, who would have thought...
"Speak! You ’yes, yes, yes, yes,’ what the hell is that!" Sang Biao angrily slapped his subordinate’s shoulder, making the already nervous man nearly fall to the ground.
Despite this, the subordinate didn’t dare to show any dissatisfaction, hastily blurting out, "Yes, yes, yes, Brother Biao, this morning, two people came, uh... named, named Zhao Huilong and Wei, Wei, Wei something, a guy. They said they want to find Boss Dai to see if he could arrange a job for them. But at that time, boss was resting, so we... we didn’t dare to disturb to report..."
"Oh?" Hearing the word "Wei," the previously annoyed Dai Sha immediately became interested, "You said, Wei Dazhuang came to find me?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Wei Dazhuang, just Wei Dazhuang!" The subordinate sensed the change in his boss and noticed Dai Sha seemed quite interested in this Wei Dazhuang, which slightly eased his tense mind. He boldly continued, "We thought this matter is not minor, so seeing you come out, we quickly came to report it to you."
He showed a flattering smile, but unfortunately, that smile didn’t catch Dai Sha’s eyes, as it was blocked by Sang Biao’s towering figure.
"Hmph! I say, elder brother, this Wei really thinks he’s quite something, huh! Coming here himself asking for a job! His skin must be really thick!"
"Hey~" Waving a big hand, Dai Sha stopped Sang Biao’s curses, "What you said isn’t quite right. The man is so sincere in ’volunteering,’ how can you say he’s thick-skinned? But..."
Pushing Sang Biao aside, Dai Sha went straight to his subordinate, loudly asking, "Hey! I ask you, you said earlier that there was someone else besides Wei Dazhuang?"
"Y-yes, boss, that person is called Zhao Huilong, walks in a floating way, claiming to be Wei Dazhuang’s brother."
"Brother?" Hearing this, Sang Biao’s eyebrows tightened. He quickly approached Dai Sha’s side and whispered a few words.
After hearing his concerns, Dai Sha smiled calmly, "Unless his brain is made of mush, coming to assassinate me? Hmph, what a joke!"
"But boss, it’s still wise to be cautious!"
"Hmm!" Nodding lightly, Dai Sha raised his arm again, "This aside, as for their tasks..."
"Boss, you’re not really thinking of... giving them tasks, are you?"
Sounding somewhat incredulous, Sang Biao’s words were slightly hesitant.
"Of course, right now the base needs a lot of people. Since they delivered themselves, why wouldn’t I use them? But..."
Dai Sha isn’t stupid. He’s not going to, nor would he plan to, have Wei Dazhuang do such important things like guarding gates. But not using free labor would be a waste.
So, after weighing the options, he thought of a clever plan, intending to use Wei and Zhao to add some fun to his otherwise dull life.
With this in mind, a sinister smile appeared on Dai Sha’s lips, "Biao, go bring Wei Dazhuang to me, I have a special task for him!"
At this moment, Wei Dazhuang was lying on his back, napping on the ground, when Dai Sha barged into the tent aggressively; he was a bit surprised.
Unlike Wei Dazhuang’s wariness, Zhao Huilong seemed exceptionally delighted, so much so that he didn’t even have time to put on shoes before jumping down and fawningly greeting,
"Ah yo yo, isn’t this Brother Biao? What wind blew you here, come, come, sit please! Take the seat!"
Dragging a stool over, Zhao Huilong, with "lightning speed," wiped the seat clean.
Seeing this made Wei Dazhuang really want to kick him. This was the first time he’d ever seen someone so "cheap" in his life.
However, Zhao Huilong’s actions quite pleased Sang Biao, though he didn’t sit down, he still gave a satisfied nod, "You’re that Zhao Huilong, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, Brother Biao knows me?"
"Now I do!" Returning to the main topic, Sang Biao understood it’s not the time for "idle chatter," he shifted his gaze from Zhao Huilong to the still motionless Wei Dazhuang on the ground:
"Hey! You lazy pig, get up now!"
With slightly squinted eyes, Wei Dazhuang lazily stretched, then said something that almost made Sang Biao spit blood: "Oh, not bad! Got a good eye there, how’d you know I was born in the year of the pig?"
"Damn it!" About to make a move, but considering Dai Sha’s command, Sang Biao held back his anger, "Stop wasting time with me, boss wants to see you! Get moving!"
"Oh?" Hearing this, Wei Dazhuang’s slightly squinted eyes suddenly opened, he looked over Sang Biao towering above him: "The boss is looking for me, what for?"
"Quit asking so many damn questions! Boss wants you, that’s it! You’ll find out when you get there!"
Whether it’s for better or worse, Wei Dazhuang glanced at Zhao Huilong, then jumped up, "Alright! Since the boss wants me, I’ll go with you. Hey, Xiao Zhao, come with me! Didn’t you always want to meet Boss Dai? Here’s your chance now!"
"Ah!" Seeing Wei Dazhuang waving at him, Zhao Huilong’s originally cheerful face turned ashen.
He’s not stupid; he could see that Sang Biao "came with ill intentions."
Recalling past conflicts between both sides, Zhao Huilong became even more aware that this trip is likely "not going to end well."
"Hurry up! You dawdling snail!"
This time, it wasn’t just Wei Dazhuang, even Sang Biao was becoming extremely impatient.
In the end, with no choice left, Zhao Huilong, under pressure, with a somber face, followed Sang Biao and Wei Dazhuang, striding towards the player’s tunnel...
