Xiao Ming felt sweat on his forehead.
Are all Thai women so bold?
He didn't dare to continue this topic and hurriedly got dressed and got up: "I'm going to work."
Yanni winked playfully: "You don't have to work today, just accompany us to the market."
Yes, although the water village is peaceful and peaceful, you still have to contact the outside world regularly, go to Bangkok markets, and exchange some daily necessities that you cannot produce yourself.
There is an iron-hulled boat in the village, which is their main means of transportation to contact the outside world.
It is dozens of kilometers away from Water Village to Bangkok.
Taking the land route will bring various dangers, but it is safer to take the water route.
Although safe, it is only relative.
Among the five women participating in the market, some carry bows and arrows, some carry short knives, and even an old-fashioned submachine gun hidden under the cabin, indicating that they are well prepared for unexpected events.
Le Ying is responsible for steering the ship and is like the leader.
The women, including Yani, all wore traditional indigo clothes and unique wide-brimmed straw hats, which gave them a unique style.
The only discordant thing was that everyone was wearing a mask on their face.
Yani helped Xiao Ming dress up, put on a white shirt, and tied a white scarf on his head.
At first glance, he really looked like a Thai boy.
Several women looked at Xiao Ming and laughed, saying words that he couldn't understand.
Yani translated: "Brother Ming, the aunties praise you for being handsome."
Xiao Ming blushed, covered his head and worked, moving baskets of mushrooms and tree worms into the cabin.
The sound of the motor sounded, and the iron-hulled boat sailed eastward along the center of the river.
The wind was strong and the waves were rough, and the roar of some kind of animal was heard from time to time in the jungles on both sides.
Yani and Xiao Ming sat on the edge of the boat, watching the scenery, and told him that it was a nuclear-mutated macaque.
He took a closer look and saw that there were indeed black shadows jumping high and low among the branches, following the boat all the way.
It wasn't until we got out of the jungle that we got rid of the macaques.
After a while, the boat entered a large river.
The river was at least two to three hundred meters wide.
There were waves, but the river water became clear.
Yani introduced that this is Thailand’s mother river, the Chao Phraya River, also known as the Chao Phraya River, which runs through urban Bangkok.
The iron-hulled boat went up the river and sailed close to the west bank.
Xiao Ming noticed that there were some cyan fish following the boat.
They were in groups and writhing up and down.
They looked cute, but in fact they were all mermaids.
Passing by a branch of the river, a boat with a pointed head emerged from the opposite side.
A group of men were sitting on it, and they gradually caught up.
The boat was moving faster than the iron-hulled boat and was getting closer and closer.
The women in Shuicun became nervous, bent their bows and nocked arrows, and took out their submachine guns.
Xiao Ming saw them preparing to fight and wanted to help, but he had no weapons at hand.
Leying said something loudly, and Yani translated: "As long as the other party's boat does not cross the center line of the river, it will be fine."
Fortunately, the ship did not cross the line and sailed close to the east coast, quickly overtaking the iron-hulled ship.
The women all breathed a sigh of relief, lowered their guard, and started talking and laughing again.
Yani also put down her bow and arrow, her expression a little disappointed, as if she wanted to start fighting.
She asked Xiao Ming not to be nervous.
This boat must also be going to the market.
The survivors scattered in the suburbs mostly choose the waterway every time they go to market.
Because there are also bad guys on the waterway, everyone has reached a water safety code that each other abides by.
When two ships sail in the same direction, they cannot cross the center line if they are on both sides of the river.

If they are on the same side, the distance between the two ships must be more than 200 meters.
If you want to overtake the opponent, you have to go from the other side of the center line.
When two ships sail opposite each other, they also use the center line as the boundary and cross each other.
Once a ship violates safety regulations, it is considered a threat, and war begins.
We met a few more boats along the way.
Everyone abided by the rules and stayed in peace with each other.
About an hour later, they entered the city, and Yani became Xiao Ming's tour guide again.
First, a group of floating houses composed of stilt wooden houses appeared on the river bank, similar to a water village.
This place used to be a slum in Bangkok, but now it is no longer inhabited.
Many wooden houses have collapsed in the water and are overgrown with weeds, like a garbage dump.
The iron-hulled boat continued to go north, and a group of modern buildings and a temple appeared on both sides of the bank.
They were gray and had obviously been abandoned for many years.
Among them is a Chinese-style pavilion, which enshrines a golden Buddha statue sitting east and west with its back to the river bank.
It is also covered with dust.
Xiao Ming looked around curiously, full of novelty, as if he had never been to such a big city.
Suddenly, a river beach appeared in front of them.
There were hundreds of corpses everywhere, at least thousands of them.
It was unknown whether they were survivors or those who had nuked the corpses.
His heart suddenly became heavy.
This world was no longer dominated by humans.
After passing a large bridge, the center of the bridge was blown off.
The iron-hulled boat passed under the incomplete bridge hole, and you can still feel the majesty and grandeur it once had.
After crossing the bridge, I found that there were more boats in front of me, and they were very close to each other.
They no longer followed safety regulations.
Yani said that when we arrived at the South Water Gate of the market, the boats going to the market had to wait in line and enter in order.
When Xiao Ming heard this, he immediately became energetic.
Although he did not belong here, he would always see various things when he went to crowded places, and there might be items that triggered his memory.
Yani began to explain to him the safety rules of the market: first, you cannot touch anyone except acquaintances; second, you can only look at the exchange of goods, not touch, and you must exchange if you touch them; third, you can't be angry, no matter how angry you are, you can't show it
This is a bit too fussy, especially the third point.
If you are angry, what are you doing to others?
Xiao Ming asked a little funny: "What will happen if these rules are violated?"
Yani replied seriously: "People will die."
Watergate is actually two warships lying across the river, forming a waterway between the two bows.
There are gunners on each turret on the warship, ready to go.
More than a dozen heavily armed guards, armed with nuclear radiation detection equipment, boarded the ship to inspect the cargo and confirmed it was qualified.
They also collected a basket of mushrooms and a basket of tree worms as tolls before letting them go.
It took more than an hour for the iron-hulled boat to arrive, and it also took another hour to queue up to cross the border.
Entering the market, there were suddenly more boats on the river, going back and forth.
Some ships lined up on the shore, laying out their goods, waiting for exchange.
There is a dazzling array of goods, including food, drink, medicine, fuel, and daily necessities.
The iron-hulled boat did not stop, but continued to drive in.
Xiao Ming noticed that there was a tall flower boat among them, and the deck was full of topless girls, all of them graceful and pretty, waving to the passing ships.
Several boats approached, and some men stepped onto the deck with smiles, and entered the cabin with their arms around the girl.
One can imagine their exchanges.
It was the first time that Xiao Ming saw a Thai woman wearing such revealing clothing, and it was in broad daylight, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Yani was angry: "Don't look" Xiao Ming was a little surprised.
He didn't violate any of the market safety rules, but she did.
Yani also realized it, and immediately put away her anger and tried her best to stay calm: "Brother Ming, those are human monsters.
Only shameless and dirty men can board the monster ship."
It turns out that these girls are neither male nor female shemales.
Xiao Ming felt sick and spat into the river.
Yani was quite satisfied with Xiao Ming's performance, beaming, and started explaining to him again.
There is a tall tower on the west bank, known as the Eiffel Tower of Thailand, standing in the Temple of King Arun.
This King Arun is an ancient Chinese hero, revered by everyone.
Continuing forward, you can see a large temple on the east bank called Wat Pho.
There is a reclining Buddha in the temple, which is one of the largest reclining Buddhas in the world.
Further forward, a row of big trees appeared on the shore.
Between the treetops, a three-story roof with red tiles and green frames and golden tower spiers were exposed.
The women who were sitting stood together and looked towards the magnificent building.
Namaste salute.
It turns out that this is the city center of Bangkok and the Grand Palace, the symbol of the Thai dynasty.
The Chao Phraya River flowing through the city forms an arc-shaped top above and below the Grand Palace, protecting it.
However, the ruler who lives in the palace is no longer the Thai royal family, but a general who is also Chinese and has a Chinese name.
His name is Tang Long.
After the nuclear disaster, riots broke out in Bangkok.
Tang Long was ordered to lead his troops to Beijing to maintain order, but found that the situation was out of control and took advantage of the chaos to take over the power.
Because he is Chinese, he has the support of the Chinese in Bangkok, especially the big guys in Chinatown, and becomes a warlord who dominates the capital.
The original market was twice the size of the current one.
It was backed by the Chao Phraya River and surrounded the Grand Palace.
It was bounded by a tributary that ran through the city.
It was surrounded by water on all sides, forming a natural barrier to protect the survivors inside.
Settlement area.
The overall outline is similar to a steel helmet.
The Grand Palace is located on the top of the helmet, Chinatown is located on the lower eaves of the helmet, and the North and South Watergates are composed of four warships.
They control the incoming and outgoing ships and become the only access to the market.
Later, after the nuclear zombie riots, the market's territory retreated towards the Grand Palace, and was still bounded by a tributary, turning it into an oval.
The iron-hulled boat made a circle along the oval river, turning its head downwards.
The river narrowed significantly, with a width of no more than a hundred meters.
Instead, there were more boats and it was bustling, just like going to a market.
The market got its name because of the floating market in Bangkok, which has existed since ancient times.
Leying slowed down the ship and sailed close to a row of ships on the west coast.
When he encountered suitable goods, he stopped the ship and began to exchange.
Xiao Ming noticed that quite a few people spoke Chinese and felt very friendly, just like at home.
Mushrooms and tree worms were indeed in demand, and they were quickly exchanged for a lot of survival supplies, including some women's products.
The richness of goods in the market far exceeded Xiao Ming's imagination.
Yanni happily picked up a white bra and gestured on her chest.
Xiao Ming didn't dare to look at her.
He glanced at the exchanged goods around him and saw something that seemed familiar, a box of lunch meat.
He subconsciously picked up a box, his eyes fell on the printed logo "adecha", and a picture emerged in his mind: in a bustling space, a pair of hands took down a box of lunch meat from the dazzling shelves, beside him People coming and going seem to be exchanging something, but their clothes are completely different from those in the market:
