Chapter 316: The Human Heart
Late at night, inside the villa.
There was a snoring sound around him, but there was also a lot of thin breathing, and from time to time someone would turn over.
Zhang Quanyin knows that there are many people like him who can't sleep.
They still haven't left.
Although thousands of meters away, no one could see what the scene was like, only some sounds could be heard, but just the amazing big birds screamed and fell one by one, and flew away in fright, which was shocking enough.
When they arrived in the evening, many of them had seen the big bird hovering low at a low altitude or even perched on a certain building.
Zhang Quanyin is also one of them.
He saw with his own eyes that even if the big birds folded their wings, they were still five or six meters long, and their weight should not be measured in tons, and their black and gray feathers, shining at the roots, glowed with a strange luster in the reflection of the setting sun, and they were terrifying to look at, not to mention the huge hook beak of steel, and the terrifying sharp claws beneath itβwhen its crimson eyes turned to look at it, it made people look at each other with only one glance, and feel the fear of losing their souls. It seemed to be an eye from the depths of hell.
At that time, his heart was already dead.
Coupled with the news from the comrade-in-arms of the garrison who had many contacts before, even heavy weapons could not deal with these hard-skinned guys, and he couldn't help but feel even more depressed.
On such a day just past, countless comrades-in-arms died, relatives lost contact one after another, the streets were full of dead bodies, and countless huge and invincible monsters hovered in the sky, as if they could swoop down at any time and choose people to eat. All he could think of was even just running away - running away, far away from here, this is already a paradise for monsters, a cemetery for mankind, and only by escaping can there be a way to live!
This is not just Zhang Quanyin, in fact, it is also the collective idea of the nearly thirty warriors who have reunited, and even by extension, except for a very small number of people with special abilities like Huo Dongwen and Nan Yuanfeng, in fact, this can be said to be the common mentality of almost all survivors in the city.
Although even with a little reasoning, it is not difficult for them to speculate that even if they go out of the city, they will not be safe, and there will be similar monsters outside the city in eight or nine out of ten, but the fear of everything around them, that kind of collapse, has subconsciously made them ignore it.
They just want to get out of town as quickly as possible and escape from it all.
But these ideas were completely changed because of a big battle a few hours ago.
Someone can kill those big birds!
And it's a solo shot, kill one in between breaths!
Until now, recalling the scene of seeing the big birds being cut down and flying from afar a few hours ago, Zhang Quanyin still feels a little uncertain in his heart.
He sighed subconsciously.
At this time, I couldn't help but think of the words of the person named Huo Dongwen again, "In this world now, where is there a safe place for you to hide?"
yes, it's not safe outside the city.
In this world, there is no safe place to hide, let alone build a small base, come back to pick people up and the like - it's just a joke.
"Team Zhang, can't you sleep too?"
Someone next to him suddenly spoke softly, and Zhang Quanyin subconsciously opened his eyes and turned his head to look over.
It's Chen Wenjin.
He is not a soldier under Zhang Quanyin, but this guy is not tall, but he has always been known for his bravery, strength, and agility, so Zhang Quanyin knows him. The Municipal Armed Police Brigade experienced this catastrophe, and there are currently less than 30 known survivors, and Zhang Quanyin, the squadron leader, is already the person with the highest rank and highest position among the survivors, so he was naturally elected by the soldiers as the leader of their group.
Today, one afternoon and one night, Zhao Zijian's large villa, which covers a large area, gathered many people, mainly divided into two groups, one group of Qin Bingxuan's people, including some veterans specially recruited by the Qin family, and also some civilian and service personnel, there are forty or fifty people, and the other group is like them, who were summoned by Wei Lu, the executive deputy director of the Municipal Special Action Commission, some of them are the staff of the Special Action Commission, and there are also the officers and soldiers of the armed police stationed in the city, but the police of the city, probably because most of them are locals, only six or seven people came to gather after receiving the orderand most of the others are scattered separately.
After spending the first half of the night in panic, because Zhao Zijian suddenly shot to kill several Beijing birds, almost everyone in the yard witnessed it, and almost everyone's emotions seemed to be appeased all at once, saying that the worries were gone, which was a bit exaggerated, but everyone's tense emotions for a day were indeed a lot more relaxed all of a sudden.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Bingxuan and Wei Lu took the lead, gathered the people in the courtyard, and made an intermittent speech, calling on everyone to stay and protect Minghu City and their homes together, so even Zhang Quanyin and the others who were supposed to leave did not have to leave for a while, but accepted the arrangement.
Eventually, a few of them were selected to stand guard in the night shifts, while others were placed in two large bedrooms on the second floor. The bed was obviously not enough to sleep, so some people slept on the bed, and everyone casually pulled a few quilts and spread them on the floor, and started to make a bunk.
Zhang Quanyin and Chen Wenjin both slept by the window, with only one person in between.
At this time, turning his head to look at Chen Wenjin, Zhang Quanyin nodded, "Ang, I can't sleep." β
Chen Wenjin said, "Can we talk?"
Zhang Quanyin looked at him and asked, "What do you want to talk about?"
In his impression, this young man named Chen Wenjin worked very hard in training, and when he competed in the team, he was also very brave, but he was usually relatively silent and a person who didn't talk much.
But at this time, Chen Wenjin seemed to be holding back what he had to say.
After hesitating for a while, he said, "Team Zhang, I don't know what you think, I don't want to leave." β
Zhang Quanyin looked at him and nodded slowly, "Why?"
When Chen Wenjin heard this, he simply sat up, sat there cross-legged, his waist straight, and said: "I don't know what's wrong, everyone says that this is a change in heaven and earth, and I also think it should be a change in heaven and earth, but I think people are right, since it is a change in heaven and earth, so many people have died, the whole country, the whole world, I don't know how many people have died, even if we go out of the city, where can we go?"
After a pause, he said, "So I think that instead of going out of the city, as we all originally thought, to find a safe place outside the city that probably doesn't exist at all, it's better to stay here, just follow that Zhao Zijian, kill the big birds, kill the monsters! Kill them all, won't we be safe?"
Zhang Quanyin didn't say anything when he heard this, but after a while, he also sat up and let out a long sigh.
Then he said, "Then you are going to ...... Just stayed, stayed, ......."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Wenjin had already rushed to say: "Not only to stay, but also to kill the big bird! I just thought over and over again, the world has changed, but we can't change." In the past, we were soldiers, the instructor said, in order to train ourselves, ready to take up arms to protect the country and protect the people, but now, although many people have died, there are still many people like us, still alive, our weapons do not work, but the weapons do not work, but the people are still there, they still need our protection. β
Speaking of this, he paused before continuing: "So I decided, I will go to that Zhao Zijian, ask him to let me stay, let me learn from him, ask him to teach me how to become as powerful as him, and ask him to teach me how to kill those big birds, as well as the countless big birds outside." β
Zhang Quanyin took a deep breath when he heard this, and before he could speak, the man who had been lying between the two suddenly sat up and said, "Well said, I'll stay too!"
Both were stunned for a moment.
At this time, people kept saying in the room: "I'll stay too!"
"Wen Jin, I'll stay with you!"
"I'll stay too!"
It turned out that unconsciously, although the conversation between the two people was not loud, it still made the soldiers in this large bedroom unable to sleep, and they couldn't sleep, needless to say, even the few people who were snoring just now have woken up one after another.
"Everyone thinks so?" asked Zhang Quanyin.
Everyone's chaotic response-
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"I'm going to stay too!"
"Stay and kill the big bird!"
"I want to become a master like Zhao Zijian!"
Zhang Quanyin took a deep breath and said, "Okay! Since everyone thinks so, then let's stay!"
After a pause, he said: "I couldn't sleep just now, and I thought a lot, we luckily didn't die this morning, but then, how are we going to live? I can tell you clearly that a few hours ago, I didn't have any way in my heart, including what we had agreed before, to go out together to find a safe place, in fact, I also knew in my heart that even if I went out of the city, there was no place outside that was really safe, so in fact, I was also scared in my heart, and I didn't know what to do." β
"But we all saw the scene last night, I think Wen Jin was right just now, we should stay, join Zhao Zijian and their gang, and become one of them!"
"Not only do we have to survive, but we also have to learn the art of fighting in the new world and continue to make ourselves qualified and powerful warriors. β
"Now it's a troubled time, the world is changing, we don't know how many people have survived like us, but I can be sure of one thing, that is, once more than half of the population is lost in society, all our original social order, political order, and economic order will completely collapse!"
"In this world, we have absolutely no idea what we have to do or how to do it. But we are warriors, and we can choose a person who can lead us to find safety and stability, and follow him! In troubled times, our first goal is to live!"
"And now, I think, here, we can live!"
***
It seems that there are two more alliance leaders, thanks to the rewards of the two brothers, "You are strong 010 forced by society" and "Tiger Head Dust"! Now I owe a total of five alliance leaders to add more, and I am extremely ashamed. Thank you again for your support!
