Rise of the Wasteland in Cultivation

胖子几口就把两个西红柿都炫完了，还一脸意犹未尽地舔了舔嘴唇。周琛那货也是促狭，吃了一半便在那舔着吃，就好像吃雪糕一样，还故意向胖子挤眼挤鼻，看着既搞笑又欠揍。

"Brother Chen, let me have a taste. I'll buy more next time, and I'll let you have a taste too." The fat man leaned forward, eager for a bite.

"Get out of here. You've already eaten two, and you still have the nerve to eat mine." Zhou Chen shoved the fat man's round face away as he leaned in, and licked even more enthusiastically, making "sucking" sounds.

Leng San was speechless. It was just a tomato that had been sitting out for a few nights. Why was he so craving it? But then he thought about how the scavengers in the wasteland had been drinking unpalatable nutritional supplements since they were children, and he immediately understood. Things are valued for their scarcity.

Ye Wenrou couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Zhou Chen. Only then did he finish the tomato in one bite, spread his hands and said, "I'm out too, you fatso, get out of my way."

The fat man muttered, "It's so unfair. We'll only get to eat this kind of delicious food a few times in our lives, while the upper class in the Green Zone can eat it every day until they're fifty or sixty. We, on the other hand, eat nutrient solutions with nuclear residue every day and drink nuclear wastewater, and we die around the age of thirty."

Bi Lang said calmly, "This world is inherently unfair, it has always been so. Even before the nuclear war, privileged classes were everywhere. If you're talking about fairness, the fairest one is the knife. Only when you're strong enough do you have the right to the fairness you want. Fatty, work hard. Once you've saved enough money, I'll buy you a level two gene enhancement potion, provided you live to see that time. Arrow and Big Ben won't have a chance then."

The fat man nodded: "Boss, I understand. I'll try my best to live until then."

"Fatty, you can do it." Zhou Chen patted Fatty on the shoulder. "If all else fails, I'll find you a feng shui treasure spot. I guarantee the grave mound will be taller than a Mercedes."

"Go to hell!" the fat man spat and tried to grab Zhou Chen's neck, but the latter lifted him up with one hand. This was the overwhelming power after the second level of enhancement.

Bi Lang laughed and said, "You two clowns, stop fooling around and get lost, so you don't disturb the mistress's peace and quiet."

Zhou Chen then put the fat man down and asked with a grin, "Wasn't bro awesome?"

The fat man said disgustedly, "That sounds utterly disgusting. Go tell Tang Hao'er tonight."

"I will."

"Holy crap, you're actually going?"

"Together?"

"vomit!"

Zhou Chen and the fat man bickered as they walked out of the courtyard. Bi Lang laughed and said, "Little San, we'll take our leave now. We'll contact you again if we have an important mission later."

Leng San nodded and saw Bi Lang out. Ye Wenrou handed an induction cooker to Leng San, and then gave Chenxi a gift bag containing several new clothes, saying with a smile, "These are three outfits I specially bought for my little sister Chenxi at the supply station in B23. I don't know if they'll fit."

"Thank you, Sister Wenrou, that's very kind of you. I'll have her give it a try later." Leng Sanfen accepted the gift readily.

Ye Wenrou then happily left the courtyard house.

After Ye Wenrou left, Leng San closed the door of the courtyard house. As soon as he turned around, he saw Chen Xi looking through the clothes Ye Wenrou had given him. They were indeed brand new, with the tags still on, and they were all ancient-style dresses with nice texture.

It seems that Ye Wenrou went to great lengths to repay the favor.

Chenxi seemed to really like the lake-green palace dress, and she took it and ran to the west wing to change into it.

The little girl is becoming more and more cheerful, which is a good thing!

Leng San smiled, plugged in the induction cooker, and then made stir-fried potatoes and pork slices, along with a carrot and tomato soup. Since starting to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, Chen Xi has basically stopped eating canned food, and Leng San is the one who consumes the canned food stock at home.

The dawn is like a hardworking little bee, which, although it only eats fresh fruits and vegetables every day, produces more and more spiritual energy each day.

Leng San quickly cooked all the dishes. The induction cooker was indeed much more convenient; it could be used anytime by simply plugging it in, and it didn't produce any smoke.

It's worth mentioning that the camp is powered by a high-powered central nuclear battery, which can meet basic daily needs. However, most scavengers don't use the camp's power supply to save money, since they have to pay for electricity.

Leng San is now considered a rising star in Camp C-361, living in a private house with its own electricity and water supply, making it very comfortable.

Meanwhile, Leng San finished cooking the dishes and waited for a while. Chen Xi finally came out after changing her clothes. She wore a lake-green ancient costume dress, which was very beautiful and made her look like she had stepped out of a painting.

"Beautiful!" Leng San laughed.

The little girl received praise, and her eyes curved into beautiful crescent moons. She walked up to Leng San and handed him two red ribbons.

Leng San was in a dilemma. Wearing ancient costumes requires a bun to look good, so he could no longer tie a simple ponytail. However, he didn't know how to tie a bun, so he could only bite the bullet and tie Chenxi's hair into two topknots. Although one was bigger than the other, it still looked very cute, mainly because Chenxi's looks were stunning.

The girl was very satisfied after getting her hair done. She even bumped fists with Leng San before happily enjoying her lunch.

For the next few months, Leng San focused on cultivation and farming, and then took time each month to go out scavenging with the Canglang team.

With Leng San and the Canglang Squad's strength, they could easily penetrate to the deepest parts of the city, so they always returned with a full load. Leng San only went on three missions and already received 20,000 points, while the Canglang Squad quickly recovered.

Bi Lang was generous; after gathering 50,000 contribution points, he immediately purchased a level-two gene enhancement potion, and thus, the fat man successfully advanced to a second-tier enhanced warrior.

Now only Ye Wenrou is left. It's only natural for girls to love beauty. Even though she's a feisty and gentle girl, she obviously doesn't want to become a "muscle woman," so she refuses to even get the first-level gene enhancement drug.

Fortunately, Ye Wenrou's superpower is an evolved type. Since her near-death experience last time, her self-healing genes seem to have evolved, making her self-healing ability stronger. If she is hit by an ordinary bullet, her wounds will basically heal after a good night's sleep.

On January 15th, 22nd year of the Wasteland Calendar, it was time for Leng San to go on another mission. Early that morning, Leng San finished his cultivation, told Chen Xi to stay at home, and then went out.

When Leng San rode his motorcycle out of the camp, the other members of the Canglang Squad were already waiting outside.

Ye Wenrou jumped onto the back of the motorcycle with ease, while Leng San twisted the throttle and drove straight onto the ring expressway.

Zhou Chen whistled and grinned, "See? I told you that gentle girl would definitely ride in the mistress's car. Fatty, you lost. Give me your 100 contribution points!"

"We'll settle it all when we get back from the mission!" the fat man said dejectedly.

Zhou Chen chuckled, stepped on the gas, and the SUV accelerated straight ahead. They were going to pull off a big heist this time.
