The Train traveled through the darkness.
Kong You looked out the Train window; occasionally, starlight would twinkle in the darkness, only to vanish in an instant.
It was as if darkness was the eternal melody.
She brought up the light screen and opened the private chat interface:
“The rooster silver coin was used by a new recruit this round.”
“Was it someone from Order?”
“No.”
“I understand. Thank you for your trouble.”
“No trouble at all. I visited a few extra stations this time. I used quite a few train coins, so please reimburse me.”
“Quite a few? How many more?”
“Three hundred.”
“Three hundred?!”
“I'll reimburse you later. Young people just spend money so freely, sigh.”
Kong You smiled as she closed the chat interface, and eleven modules appeared on the light screen.
【Cancel costume change, change attire to default loungewear】
The clothes, shoes, and weapon on her disappeared, replaced by a pink kitten pajama set and pink cat-ear slippers.
Her hair also changed from short black hair to long, flowing pink hair.
“A red Train, huh.”
The corners of Kong You's mouth curved upwards slightly.
......
Half an hour later, Qi Xiao returned to the Train.
He had originally wanted to pick up a few more forgotten items, but considering his Train door was wide open and that other Train Conductors might rush over, Qi Xiao immediately hurried back to his Train.
It was 8:55 PM. He had been there for less than an hour, yet he had already experienced two life-or-death crises.
The Black Wind Monster was very well-behaved this time; even with the door open, it didn't jump down again.
“Woof woof woof woof.”
Seeing his owner return, the Black Wind Monster quickly pounced to hug Qi Xiao's calf.
Patting the dog's head, Qi Xiao put the retrieved items aside, closed the Train door, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The moment he relaxed, the pain in his arm instantly flared, and Qi Xiao fainted.
......
Slurp, slurp.
Slurp, slurp.
A slimy tongue licked Qi Xiao's face, and Qi Xiao suddenly woke up with a start.
Pain, pain, pain!
Qi Xiao scrambled up from the ground, a sharp pain radiating from his wound.
Throwing him into the lake to feed the fish was too easy on him. He should have been hung on my Train to be air-dried and fed to the dog!
Black Wind Monster: ?
Qi Xiao glanced at his watch. It was 7 PM.
I've been unconscious for that long?
Qi Xiao walked to the ordinary carriage and pulled out a bottle of white liquor.
Taking off his T-shirt, Qi Xiao poured the white liquor onto the wound to disinfect it.
Hiss...
Qi Xiao's expression was distorted, his teeth clenched tightly.
“Get away, you can't lick that!”
The Black Wind Monster still wanted to lick the liquor spilled on the ground but was shooed away by Qi Xiao.
After a simple treatment, Qi Xiao took out the bottle of healing potion, twisted open the cap, and poured it into his mouth.
It was sweet, and the taste was decent.
Not long after drinking the healing potion, Qi Xiao felt no more pain.
Moreover, the wound quickly scabbed over and peeled off, restoring itself to its original state, except for a reddish scar.
As expected of a healing potion!
If only I had known the effect was so good, I wouldn't have used white liquor to disinfect it!
It hurt so much.
He swung his arm, and after confirming it was fine, Qi Xiao pulled out a new black T-shirt and put it on.
Seeing that Qi Xiao was fine, the Black Wind Monster pounced on him again.
Qi Xiao lifted the Black Wind Monster high:
“It's a good thing I have you, Black Wind Monster! If that woman had gotten into my Train, there would probably only be one carriage left now!”
“That guy, disassembling and transferring in one go—they're clearly a repeat offender.”
This Train survival game, it's not just our current batch?
Then her Level 12 Train makes sense.
Oh, right, the supplies!
She said she transferred the supplies to me!
Qi Xiao put down the Black Wind Monster and tapped the screen.
There was one unread message in the bottom right corner.
【You have new supply transfers, please check】
Qi Xiao clicked to check.
【Received 228.3 kg of metal, 191 kg of plastic, 93 kg of wood】
After confirming he received the supplies, Qi Xiao felt relieved.
Though not much, it was better than nothing.
He began to organize the gains from this trip.
From the dead man, he picked up a pistol with a red dot sight and a full spare magazine.
Two windproof lighters and a sharp dagger.
Also, six train coins and a water lily seed.
Crucially, he also found a Corpse-Driving Talisman in that man's Train.
Qi Xiao took Ren Laotaiye out of the trade slot.
He lifted the coffin lid, removed the original talisman from Ren Laotaiye's head, and immediately affixed the Corpse-Driving Talisman.
As soon as the Corpse-Driving Talisman was applied, it disappeared.
So it's a one-time use?
Qi Xiao's mind connected with Ren Laotaiye; he could now issue commands and control him.
Bang!
Ren Laotaiye jumped out of the coffin.
Moving forward, backward, turning left and right—controlling him was quite convenient.
Qi Xiao controlled Ren Laotaiye to stick his hands into the coffin board, jump back into the coffin, and then close the coffin lid.
As long as he wasn't in direct sunlight, Ren Laotaiye could move freely.
Qi Xiao nodded with satisfaction; he now had an extra thug.
Grumble.
His stomach rumbled.
Qi Xiao took out a can of beef, picked out a piece of beef, and threw it to the Black Wind Monster.
Ding-dong, ding-dong, ding-dong.
Several messages came in succession; he didn't even need to think—it must be Xi Jian.
