Chapter Seventy-Three, Human Beings Are Terrible

Five minutes later, the roof of the Jin Mao Tower.

The gale was blowing, and the mermaid girl, who had been on the run for two minutes and was arrested, lay on the ground, trying to shrink herself into a ball.

If she had a choice, she hoped that she could become an air-dried salted fish, so that at least a whole corpse would not have to be steamed and stewed in eight pieces.

Before dying, the merman began to look back on his short life-

I knew this was the case, what kind of shore did I go to, but the extravagant life after the success of the song was not fulfilled, not to mention, even the long-tailed uncle who funded himself to go to art school was also double-regulated and disappeared without a trace. And because I didn't want to pay the expensive tuition fees I had already paid, I wanted to stay until the final exam and hit the JP face in the class, and now I am guarding a stinking ditch to survive, and I have to be careful not to be discovered by terrible humans from time to time.

Now that it has fallen into the hands of human cultivators, I am afraid that it is better to die than to die soon, and it is better to die early.

The stage name Mary Love Haihime, the mermaid of the famous Chen Yu thought sadly, and a line of tears slowly flowed from the corners of his eyes, instantly flushing the little face that was deliberately painted dirty and unnoticeable.

"Yay? It turns out that the tears of the mermaids are not pearls. "One of the villains who kidnapped the demon girl on the street, the graceless Du Zhenren touched his chin and commented in a regretful tone of 'It turns out that not all salted duck eggs have oil'.

“？！ …… Yes, yes! If you want pearls, you want as many as you want! ”

When Chen Yu, who was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, heard this, he suddenly realized that it was better to die than to live, and he still had to fight for it.

She immediately jumped up and worked hard to sell herself: "Ensure that the positive round light is flawless, what color you want, punch Tahiti and kick AKOYA, low investment and high return sustainable production!" It's definitely much more cost-effective than slaughtering me and eating meat! ”

“………………”

What the hell makes you think we're going to slaughter you for meat!!

Master, I am such a talent in Yushu Linfeng, and Xiao Lizi is even more of a Dao Bone Fairy Wind Immortal, where can you think of cannibalism? !

Du Ling rolled his eyes and fiercely resisted the urge to complain, and he didn't bother to play the role of the bad guy who forced a confession.

He can see that this merman is simply full of drama, his brain is bigger than him, and if he uses the tricks of fooling Director Zhu Da to deal with her, he doesn't know where to go.

It's better to open the skylight and say something bright and go straight to the topic.

"Well, we just want to ask you a few words." Du Ling cleared his throat and said something truthful.

Originally, they really just wanted to exchange some information with the familiar little demon, anyway, the merman didn't have the slightest demonic energy on him, and he couldn't use any tough means.

As a result, this guy was scared away as soon as he saw him, and he cried and begged, making them look like some heinous villains.

Du Ling was very upset, so after telling the truth, he added a sentence of malicious revenge: "But since you are so active in paying tribute, then the correct foot-washing maid who serves tea and pours water will reluctantly accept you." ”

Chen Yu, who had just been relieved, was about to cry again-

I just want to pump myself with a big ear scraper and make your mouth so fast!

Fortunately, there are still honest and kind, and I can't get used to seeing Du someone fighting (with) the situation (will) bullying (adjusting) people (playing) other goblins. He immediately suppressed the bully who was very tasteless and scared the little girl, and apologized to the little mermaid with dignity: "Neiko is messing around, please forgive me." ”

As soon as these words came out, not to mention that Chen Yu's children were stunned, Du Ling was also a thunderbolt on the outside and tender on the inside.

Uchiko ............

What the hell? What's this fun for?!

We haven't made it clear that you want to be so big?? Although my cultivation is not as good as that of others, I still plan to rely on my skills ♂ to win and struggle???

I have always felt that one side is strong and the other side is well-informed, and the battle between the two is still between the two and the middle, but he was suddenly dumbfounded by Du Ling, who was inside, .jpg

However, Xiao Li just followed the instructions of a certain copycat strategy and tried to show the partnership as much as possible in his daily life. I haven't taken a driver's license, so I don't know what it is, but he subconsciously thinks of himself as a husband, and he has turned the page on this matter very indifferently, and opened the topic to ask the merman about the matter.

So in order not to seem that he minded very much, Du Ling had no choice but to swallow his anger and did not jump up to interrupt.

Then the terrible truth that Chen Yu told made him no longer have the heart to pay attention to the little things inside and outside.

In hindsight, it was really # one wrong step and one wrong step, and the chrysanthemums were full of injuries. #

At this time, Du Ling's mind was not on this, because he finally knew why the merman was so scared when he saw him and Xiao Li.

She wasn't just afraid of human monks.

She was afraid of humans at all.

Didn't someone from Shu Huang say that what is more terrifying than monsters is the human heart.

This is where the story goes.

When the apocalyptic catastrophe just happened, the demon capital was actually similar to Mozhou, where there were no monsters and no Du Ling and Xiao Li intervened.

Of course, the area needs to be X10, and the population has to be multiplied by almost a hundred.

The earthquake that day was not too severe, and the worst thing was that it caused a hurricane and a tsunami. People were just about to be glad that the building was sturdy enough, but after the natural disaster, humans mutated into monsters, and they lost all contact with the outside world...... The chaos of this series fell like dominoes, and finally the survivors were completely overwhelmed.

However, it was only the ordinary citizens who were panicked like flies, and the government had already been prepared, and had already dispatched supplies and armaments, and when the natural disasters that were too much manpower to resist had passed, it quickly showed its determination and strength to restore and maintain order by means such as stationing troops and distributing leaflets and setting up bulletin boards.

The handful of stupid X's who first shouted that the end of the world would occupy the mountain as the king, jumped out to hit, smash, rob, and burn, and was extinguished before they could cause an impact.

At that time, Chen Yu still felt that mortals were very powerful, and it only took a few days to adapt to the disaster and regain his strength: patrols with loaded guns everywhere, escorting relief supplies, informing the people of the situation, and by the way, dealing with those who preached apocalyptic bushism.

As for those mutant zombies (officially the mutant virus) are pointed out to be extremely contagious, and those "patients", or the virus hosts, have actually died after mutating their physical characteristics. They are infinitely powerful and have an infinite appetite for living people, and although the virus is not infected by □□behaviors such as scratching and biting, it is still not allowed to be handled by ordinary citizens.

At the same time, anyone has the obligation to report the storage of variants, and if family and friends conceal and fail to report it, they will not only be regarded as latent carriers of the virus and be quarantined (detained) for observation for a few days, but will also be disqualified from receiving relief materials and other punishment measures in the future.

Of course, in fact, those fools who have naïve ideas and want to keep their "demonized" relatives basically can't wait for the severe punishment of the official, so they directly contribute their flesh and blood to get angry, and successfully integrate with the people they love and protect.

So far, it's still what a normal zombie apocalypse should look like - it's still in a better situation, the government is strong enough, the social order hasn't had time to collapse, people are organized to put their energy into reconstruction, and it seems that a peaceful life is just around the corner.

If it weren't for the fact that someone resisted when they were attacked by "zombies", and was lucky enough to successfully kill them and discover the secrets of these mutants, things would really have developed so smoothly.

It's a pity that there are no ifs.

Some citizens found the storage of black crystals in the mutated corpses.

Then rumors spread overnight, first that the earthquake and tsunami were due to undersea nuclear tests, and then the M virus also became a conspiracy of the government/military/a secret organization, and the closed magic capital was actually a large raccoon city, and they were abandoned by the whole world......

The people who have already dared to go out of their homes are passionate and shouting for the truth. As a result, the government had to retreat, explain, and reveal the secrets step by step, and the radio communications, which had finally been restored, were suddenly filled with the flickering of bricks and beasts from all walks of life.

In fact, everyone knows that it is impossible to really lose a few □□ to level the entire demon capital, and many forces are secretly promoting this qiē, which is nothing more than wanting to get a piece of the pie from the government and the army.

What they want is the "zombies" that are forcibly recycled and supposedly destroyed to avoid secondary pollution, but they don't dare to stretch out their claws at will, for fear of being ruthlessly chopped off by the government, so they make their own smart choice curves to save the country and push the ignorant masses to ask for it.

Isn't there an old saying that "the law does not hold the people accountable"?

As a result, the gossip that Sombra can stimulate the evolution of the human body and gain superhuman strength does not know where it came from, and it soon became a well-known secret.

But the conspirators who wanted to use this as bait to create a great rebellion and fight for the top did not expect that probably because the social order was not bad enough to be that Cheng Dù, although most people craved power out of a sense of crisis, they were not necessarily able to overcome the psychological barrier and devour the "treasures" dug out of the bodies of the dead.

However, the bottom line of human nature is also very fragile and on the verge of collapse.

At this critical juncture, the "wise and decisive" human government began to make a counterattack, and as soon as it did, it seemed to solve all the problems beautifully.

The result of this shot is the appearance of that strange sea monster.

It not only conforms to people's imagination of a terrifying enemy, but also does not need to go beyond the moral bottom line of cannibalism, and also helps to promote people-to-people cooperation and vent the negative feelings of shameless dispatch after a disaster.

Not to mention that this sea monster has low combat effectiveness and impressive intelligence, has no evolutionary prospects at all, and is simply a perfect new type of animal except that it is ugly and smelly, which is convenient for humans to harvest "black crystals" on a regular basis.

The official theory of the cause of the sea monster is that after investigation, it was proved that an infected person fell into the river during the pursuit, and the corpse washed into the sea, causing the M virus to contaminate the seawater, and finally led to the mutation of low-level marine creatures.

Well, it's not a submarine nuclear leak or a biological and chemical weapon, so you can continue to eat salt with confidence.

“…… I don't know who to fool and deceive, by chance a zombie fell into the sea, and so many mutated monsters can be made? ”

Chen Yu naturally flashed a trace of sarcasm in his tearful and pitiful eyes, full of the deepest contempt for the hypocrisy of human nature: "I have seen with my own eyes that some white-skinned people throw chopped mutated zombies into the sea and feed them to those ignorant and unaware stupid fish and shrimp...... The first-generation high-quality spar was collected and used by himself, and then used the residue to make some second-generation parallel goods to coax the people, which was really thrifty and thrifty, and I was so witty that I was afraid. ”

The little mermaid tries to act as indifferent as she can, but the unnatural stiffness of her body when she describes human practices still betrays her true fear.

"Actually, those people ...... Everyone in the whole city knew that those sea monsters grew up eating the corpses of their own people, but no one minded, and after logically justifying themselves, their cheap sense of morality was satisfied, and even the people who killed the sea monsters and ate Sombra evolved held their heads high and regarded themselves as human heroes......"

Chen Yu couldn't help but shudder as he spoke.

How much she once longed for the so-called human civilization, so many beautiful and romantic stories, earning her tears after fights. She has always felt that it is reasonable for the heavenly way to love human beings, at least the demon clan can't come up with so many sets of moral and legal self-restraint, and the collective behavior allows small individuals to exert incredible power, not to mention, but also to bring out a noble and beautiful "human nature" to make herself stand out.

Therefore, Chen Yu yearns for being a man and yearning for the beautiful feelings of human beings, although she has made up one after another bosom friend stories of infatuated demon girls and scumbags, but in the final analysis, she will cry for these stories, and it is also because she admits from the bottom of her heart that the conventional moral standards of human beings are beautiful.

However, after realizing that the city has chosen to live by cannibalism, and that everyone has acquiesced to this truth, people are not stupid enough to be deceived by such a simple lie, but pretend to be deceived themselves, so that they can continue to enjoy it with peace of mind, the dream is shattered.

She looked at the human faces that seemed ordinary and vivid in the past, each like a terrifying monster that her mother scared her when she was a child.

This closed society can operate so stably every day, and how many people can really mutate and demonize?

At least among the people who mingled with Chen Yu, they basically never heard the news of the disease of the latent patients of the M virus. But there has never been a shortage of "scraps" that come to the riverside every night and are secretly dumped in truckloads.

Where exactly do they come from?

Chen Yu gave up thinking.

She just watched silently, not only hiding in the crowd and not daring to be maverick, but also carefully hiding her identity as a monster, not daring to cooperate with anyone, for fear that one day after being exposed, she would also become a new type of "material" in the mouths of those humans.

"Humans are terrible anyway." In the end, she summed up in a whisper as thin as a mosquito, and by the way, with what she thought was a very vague gaze, she looked at a certain fairy martyr who dared to be the Supreme Lady of the Righteous Path.

Don't you know after being mixed for so long, the immortals, the righteous path leader or something, the easiest to export the honey-bellied sword hypocrite real scum?

After seeing the ugly side of human nature, the little mermaid no longer even dared to face the handsome face of the Emperor Xià, who had been a nymphomaniac.

After listening to Chen Yu's narration mixed with complex feelings such as fear and contempt, Du Ling also looked like WTF, and wanted to scream with his chest covered -

#夭寿啦, someone actually raises demons to eat crystal nuclei! #

In fact, there are a lot of post-apocalyptic novels, and he will not be horrified by the fact that he digs up crystals from dead corpses (although it is indeed very difficult to accept after seriously bringing it into reality), but it is unheard of to deliberately use the fragments of demonized corpses to raise sea monsters for people to hunt and obtain magic crystals, which makes people's stomachs churn.

This is not the same as the chaotic and chaotic end-time corners, but a false fulfillment based on the collective subconscious approval.

I don't know which one is more terrifying.

Du Ling shuddered, he forced himself to stay in a pompous and superficial position, so as not to be extreme: Xiao Li, in order to restrain his anger and not to exert coercion on the innocent demon, had already clenched his wrist to the point that it hurt, and he couldn't pour a scoop of oil on the fire again.

One of the two has to stay calm and sane.

What's more, what the merman knows will be the whole truth?

Since the initial leak of the news about the magic crystal, she has only been a spectator in the endless conspiracies and struggles.

Those people will inevitably pay the price for their stupid choices, but if the city's post-disaster recovery is based entirely on the tacit approval of "cannibalism", it is too big.

Most people should just choose to escape from reality and hypnotize themselves in desperation, so that they can face life more "positively".

"Moral standards are inherently changed with the changes of historical conditions."

But after thinking about it, it seems that there is no way to shake the pot for human beings, Du Ling finally squeezed out a seemingly philosophical sentence to make peace with the mud, and then the wind of words changed, and sharply went straight to the point:

"The real question is why people believe that it is safe and feasible to eat magic crystals to become stronger, and how do they know that the remains of monsters can be fed with second-generation monsters?"

Probably listening to the whispers of those so-called psychic warriors, Chen Yu reflexively muttered that he must have done some underground research on human experiments...... Anyway, it doesn't matter how heavy and dark the pot is, it's not afraid of smashing the innocent when it is thrown on the government's head.

What's more, the research reports from virus M to 'evolutionary energy crystals' are indeed issued by the government.

Du Ling ignored this country fish who had almost been brainwashed in reverse, and he didn't really care how much of it was a plan by the authorities, and how many tricks came from demon cultivators, the only thing he cared about......

It can be, and it can only be Xiao Li's feelings.

He pinched the other party's stiff fingers with his backhand, raised his eyes to look into the good-looking eyes that suppressed anger and disappointment, and tried to pull the corners of his mouth: "Don't you be taken into the ditch so easily, little pear, think about the poisonous snake we killed before, but do you know that there is no devil's hand in it?" ”

Du Ling deliberately raised his tone a little higher to appear optimistic, so as to distinguish one or two for those fools who raised demons and ate demons, and also relieved Xiao Li's heavy sense of guilt.

"Isn't there a saying, 'He who does not know is not guilty'...... Those people, I guess I've read too many novels, so I'm stupid to be forced to eat that thing and I'm evolving, if you have to count the cause and effect, it's still the pot of an Internet writer, even I have to memorize it together, haha,"

He laughed a few times and finally silenced, knowing that such an argument was too far-fetched.

Demonization is actually a very mysterious concept, and it cannot be used as a fig leaf for misunderstanding and ignorance.

If it weren't for the fact that he had already entered the demon mentality, and affirmed the logic of devouring other qiē to strengthen himself from the depths of his soul, it would be impossible to not have **mutation after swallowing the demonic qi condensation without any exercise guidance, but instead feel that his strength increased.

There will be such a result, and it can only be that the demonic qi discovers a dark nest that is completely suitable for its own life and growth, and consciously and voluntarily operates.

Therefore, those "supernatural people" who constantly devoured magic crystals were actually primitive demon cultivators.

Seduced by interests, pushed by superiors, such a simple and quick demon.

What is even more terrifying than being catalyzed into monsters by demon seeds is that they spontaneously breed darkness with the same nature as demons from their souls.

No wonder Xiao Li was so angry.

Du Ling knew very well that since the demise of the Heavenly Dao, the young Heavenly Emperor, who had a strong sense of justice and idealism, had already developed the consciousness of protecting the common people in the world with his own strength, and at the same time, he naturally regarded the human beings who had lost his favor as his responsibility.

Now that it is found that human beings can easily embark on the evil path, as long as they push it a little, they will quickly fall, and it is estimated that even if Xiao Li is prepared in his heart, it is difficult not to be angry, annoyed and even disappointed.

I'm afraid that he won't restrain him, and his anger will turn into murderous aura and wipe out the demons in the world with a sword...... It's easy to kill someone, but the consequences are endless.

So I had to comfort him, and I had to hold on to people to keep them from going to extremes.

Du Ling subconsciously straightened his chest, feeling that he was actually shouldering the well-being of the people in the world, full of a sense of mission.

He felt that his efforts had paid off, at least Xiao Li's face was no longer covered with frost, and his fingers were no longer so cold and stiff, and the bones of the people he cried were about to be shattered.

Du Ling rolled his eyes, considering what else he could say to whitewash the peace, directing Xiao Li's attention to tracking down the conspiracy rather than dealing with the fallen humans. As everyone knows, all his crooked reasoning is useless, so that Xiao Li gradually regains his calm and self-control, and is no longer affected by the anger of the heart and burns his reason, it is only his worry itself that he can't hide.

In fact, at the same time that cultivation is inexplicably skyrocketing, how can the state of mind be consistently stable?

Xiao Li knew that he was in a dangerous situation now, and he might go crazy if he was not careful, but fortunately Du Ling had been by his side, so in order not to make him sad, he did not forget to stick to his heart.

However, this qiē could not be pronounced.

So Xiao Li just lowered his eyes,
