Rise of the Wasteland in Cultivation

The planet Earth won't stop rotating just because someone leaves it, just as the scavengers at Camp C-361 won't stop scavenging just because Leng San didn't return to camp last night.

The next morning, the scavengers in the camp were preparing to go out when they were surprised to find that the beautiful little girl that Leng San had brought back was dressed in men's denim clothes and was standing in front of the camp gate in a daze, holding a pillow in her arms. Her fair skin was as delicate as a carved jade, making her look incredibly tempting.

This little girl is so exquisite and beautiful; she's a feast for the eyes and a delight to behold.

A scavenger approached, trying his best to hide his lewd and fierce appearance, and forced a "kind" smile, saying, "Little sister, you're waiting for Leng San, right? Uncle advises you not to wait anymore. Leng San didn't return to camp last night, so he's probably dead. You can come with Uncle from now on, and Uncle will take care of you. Hmm, Uncle also has a beautiful goldfish at home, want to see it?"

As he spoke, he tried to pull Chenxi away, but she took two steps back to avoid him, her gaze still fixed on the distance of the road, her pretty little face completely blank.

"Huh? Is this little girl out of her mind? But it's better if she is, then I can do whatever I want with her." The scavenger thought to himself, and was about to pick up Chenxi and take her away.

"Hey, you idiot, what are you doing? Kidnapping a girl in broad daylight?" A woman swayed her hips as she walked over and stopped the scavenger.

The scavenger was taken aback for a moment, then sneered, "Who did I think you were? Turns out you're a prostitute. What are you pretending to be, a good person?"

Just then, Good Sister walked over. She was a prostitute in the camp. She swayed her hips as she approached Chenxi and said with a smile, "Little sister, don't pay any attention to him. This guy's nickname is Pighead Four. He's lustful and wicked. If you go with him, he'll probably devour you whole. Come on, let me take you to eat something delicious. You can stay with me from now on. I'm a woman too, and I would never harm you."

The scavenger nicknamed Pighead Four said with dissatisfaction, "Tang Hao'er, what do you mean? There has to be a first-come, first-served rule, right? I saw this girl first."

The girl sneered, "Did she agree to be with you?"

Pighead Four sneered, "The little girl didn't agree to be with you!"

You can cause as much trouble as you want outside the camp, but there are rules within the camp. Orphans in the camp cannot be forcibly taken unless they are unable to survive and are willing to follow you. Otherwise, you cannot use violence.

When Leng San became an orphan, no one rushed to take him in. What use would they have for a skinny little boy? They'd have to spend money to raise him.

Chenxi, on the other hand, was a little girl of eight or nine years old, with a beautiful and delicate appearance, which naturally attracted the covetous eyes of scavengers with ill intentions.

Tang Hao'er was actually up to no good. She was a prostitute, and although business was good now and she could support herself, people eventually get old and lose their looks. When that time came, she wouldn't be able to sell her body anymore, and how would she make a living?

Therefore, Tang Hao'er plans to adopt Chenxi so that she can take over her job and earn money to support her in her old age. Moreover, Chenxi is a natural beauty, and she will be even more amazing in a few years. With proper training, she will surely become a money tree with customers every day.

"Little sister, your name is Chenxi, right? Come on, come sit in my room, I'll give you something delicious." Tang Hao'er showed what she thought was a sweet smile as she took Chenxi's little hand.

Chenxi frowned her pretty brows, shook off Tang Hao'er's hand, and ignored her.

Seeing this, Pighead Four laughed and said, "Look, that little girl doesn't want to be a prostitute with you. Get lost, why are you pretending to be a good person!"

At this moment, the scavengers watching from all around were also eager to try, and some even took out food and toys to lure Chenxi, trying to get her to go with them willingly.

Tang Hao'er was a little annoyed and sneered, "Little sister, you don't need to wait anymore. I've lived for nineteen years and I've never seen a scavenger who didn't return to camp at night come back alive the next day. Just give up on that idea! If you follow me, I'll treat you well, like my own daughter. If you follow these men, hehe, these beasts will abuse and ravage you every night. You'll be ravaged to death by them sooner or later."

"Little sister, don't listen to Tang Hao'er's nonsense. She's the real bad guy. She wants to use you as a cash cow. If she takes dozens of customers a day, that will be even worse." A group of scavengers retorted all at once and surrounded them.

Chenxi hugged her pillow tightly, her body beginning to tremble slightly.

Tang Hao'er thought she was scared, so she reached out and patted Chenxi's head to comfort her, "Don't pay attention to those filthy men, they're all lying to you. I'm a woman too, how could I possibly hurt you... Ah!"

Tang Hao'er screamed in pain. It turned out that Chen Xi had suddenly raised his hand and scratched her cheek, leaving five bloody marks that stung terribly!

"You little slut, how dare you scratch my face! You have no sense of right or wrong!" Tang Hao'er was both shocked and furious. She let out a pig-like scream and raised her hand to slap Chen Xi.

Just then, the roar of a motorcycle sounded, and a Jialing motorcycle sped up to the camp gate.

In that instant, the entire camp seemed to be paused. Everyone, including the guards on watchtower, looked in the same direction. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop!

—Leng San?

That's right, the one driving the Jialing motorcycle at this moment was not the two brothers, but the scavenging boy Leng San.

Even more shocking was the large bundle of weapons strapped to the rear rack of the Jialing motorcycle, resembling a bundle of dry firewood: rocket launchers, M4 automatic rifles, sniper rifles, shotguns, crossbows, submachine guns, AK98 rifles, square shields...

—Hiss

Gasps of astonishment filled the air, leaving the scavengers and camp guards speechless with disbelief.

What does this mean?

This means that Leng San wiped out the Viper Squad and the Jialing Motorcycle Brothers. The most incredible thing is that Leng San spent the night outside and was able to come back alive. He is incredibly strong!

Tang Hao'er shivered and quickly withdrew her hand, which had been frozen in mid-air. Pighead Si also scurried into the crowd in fear, keeping a safe distance from Chenxi. My goodness, this is not to be trifled with!

Leng San twisted the accelerator and drove towards the camp gate. The scavengers spontaneously parted to make way, and some even called out ingratiatingly, "Third Brother is back!"

Only after Leng San extinguished the fire did the two camp guards responsible for scanning come to their senses. They hurriedly stepped forward to scan Leng San, confirming that he was not infected with the zombie virus, before politely saying, "Alright, it's fine, please come in!"

Leng San glanced at Chen Xi, who was hugging a pillow, and frowned, saying, "Why did you run out? Get in the car!"

Chenxi still had that aloof expression, seemingly detached from the world, but she obediently got on the Jialing motorcycle.

Just as Leng San was about to start the car and drive away, Tang Hao'er finally mustered up her courage and shouted, "Xiao San... Brother, wait a minute!"

"What is it?" Leng San looked at Tang Hao'er and saw that she was covering half of her face, looking shy and coy. He immediately became a little impatient.

Tang Hao'er released her grip, revealing five shocking bloody scratches on her face. She forced a smile and said, "This little slut... cough, little sister scratched me like this. Third Brother, you have to compensate me, right? I make a living this way. If I have scars, how can I face anyone?"

Leng San looked surprised and turned to look at Xiao Chenxi in the back seat, asking, "Did you scratch that?"

Chenxi lowered her head and remained silent, as if she hadn't heard.

Leng San nodded in approval and said, "Good scratching, but next time you should use a knife, don't make it look like children fighting." After saying that, he stomped on the fire starter and started the Jialing motorcycle.

Tang Hao'er's face darkened. "Leng San, what do you mean? You don't want to pay compensation, do you?"

"I'll pay you back!" Leng San drew his Desert Eagle from his waist, pressed the muzzle against Tang Hao'er's head, and said coldly, "Chen Xi doesn't scratch people for no reason. You must have provoked her first."

Tang Hao'er was so frightened that she fell to the ground with a thud!

Leng San put away the Desert Eagle, twisted the accelerator, and sped away.

Tang Hao'er finally came to her senses and started crying and throwing a tantrum on the ground, yelling, "They're bullying me! Leng San is bullying me! Aren't you going to do anything about it? Leng San pulled out a gun and threatened people in the camp! Isn't that breaking the rules?"

The two camp guards exchanged a glance and scolded, "Tang Hao'er, that's enough. You know what you did. You deserved to be scratched. If you're so capable, go find some lovers to avenge you. Once you leave this camp, you can do whatever you want. It's none of our business."

Tang Hao'er knew she was in the wrong, and Leng San was too powerful. He had wiped out the Viper Squad and the Jialing Motorcycle Brothers, and even managed to come back alive after spending the night outside. From now on, probably no one in Camp C-361 would dare to mess with him.

So Tang Hao'er sat there crying and making a fuss for a while, and finally had no choice but to get up reluctantly and accept her bad luck.

Leng San drove Chenxi back to his own independent cargo container, turned off the motorcycle engine, and unloaded all the weapons strapped to the rear rack.

Chenxi watched with some curiosity, but not at the weapons; she was looking at Leng San.

Leng San touched his face and asked, "What are you looking at? It's just a little paler, don't you recognize me?"

Chenxi immediately turned her head away from Leng San, as if to say, "Fine, I won't look, so what!"

Leng San smiled. Now he seemed to be able to understand the little girl's subtle emotions. Seeing her hugging the pillow, he couldn't help but think of his dream last night, and his heart softened even more.

I fainted twice, and both times I was awakened by a searing pain in my soul. This was clearly a "shady move" by Chenxi. Although the method was not very friendly, it at least showed that the little girl was still "concerned" about her, her long-term "meal ticket".

So Leng San asked softly, "Didn't you sleep a wink last night? Go back and get some sleep. After I sell these things, I'll treat you to a big meal. Eat whatever you want, don't be stingy anymore."

Chenxi yawned and, sure enough, went into the container to sleep.

Leng San shouldered the large bundle of firewood... no, the large bundle of weapons, and headed towards the camp's supply depot.
