166 The Sacrificed
"Your so-called strictness is full of loopholes! I'll tell you the truth, the mass grave has already been opened up by the tunnel! You'd better pray that the walking corpse doesn't crawl out of the tunnels! ”
Anger and fear had made Shen Yan'er unable to control her feelings. She couldn't care about the difference between dignity and inferiority anymore, and pointed at Feng Fengke's nose and scolded him.
Although Shen Yan'er believed that Xiao Hei and Xiao Qing should know how to block the entrance to the tunnel, the reason why accidents are called accidents is that there are always unexpected situations.
In the face of Shen Yan'er's angry scolding, Phoenix Ke was not angry at all, and explained calmly: "If we do nothing because of fear, one day, An Li, who has learned to control the corpse army, will drive south and break through the border fortress." Can you imagine what that would look like? Our soldiers and civilians, powerless to resist, were bitten alive by the beast-like walking corpses in an instant. Rivers of blood flowed and corpses piled up like mountains......"
Shen Yan'er's eyes that were round because of anger, with Feng Feng Ke's narration, were unconsciously covered with a thin layer of mist.
Just imagining it makes me feel hopeless, helpless, and miserable......
She suddenly understood Phoenix Ke's fear, madness, and persistence, and even she thought it was ridiculous. If everyone is destined to be bitten to death by the walking corpse in the future, and the picture of the end flashes in your mind all the time, then, before such an end comes, even if you are charged with destroying the world, you must struggle with all your might.
If the sacrifice of the show girl can change the fate of the world's destruction......
Although Shen Yan'er can't express her position on behalf of the other dead show girls and the dead Ah Zhen, as long as such a death gets its due value, she is willing to sacrifice.
Thinking of this, Shen Yan'er couldn't continue to scold. "Could it be...... Is there no other way? At some point, my voice was choked.
"If there is any other way to defend against the attack of the Walking Corpse of the Anli Kingdom, I would like to know. But I couldn't come up with it even after racking my brains...... So the only way to continue is to follow the path of 'knowing that it is self-defeating......"
Shen Yan'er subconsciously hugged Yu'er in her arms, as if this was the whole world. I don't know how much Yu'er understood, she seemed to understand and looked at Shen Yan'er's mournful face without tears, and her eyes flashed with crystal tears.
"But......" Phoenix Ke's words turned sharply, and his soft and tired voice suddenly became firm and resolute, "just when I thought that I could only go on without hesitation, either to destroy myself or to survive, 'you' appeared so unexpectedly and abruptly. It was your presence that gave me new hope......"
The phoenix's scorching gaze made Shen Yan'er subconsciously touch the scars on her neck.
She is the second person to survive being bitten by a walking corpse.
The first is Bao Yin, but Bao Yin has black blood, and no one else can replicate her miracle. But Shen Yan'er is different, she is just an ordinary person, but she survived from the mouth of the walking corpse - which makes Phoenix Ke see hope. At the beginning, Phoenix Ke ignored Shen Yan'er's life and death, and wanted to let the bat bite Shen Yan'er again, because he couldn't control the excitement in his heart, and was eager to prove whether such a miracle really happened.
"If I sue you, can you stop the walking dead?"
Shen Yan'er asked calmly, her hand still tightly covering the scar on her neck, as if she could still feel the sharp pain when she was bitten by Ah Zhen.
Knowing how to resist the poison of the walking corpse, and knowing how to survive being bitten by the walking corpse, naturally there is no need to form a walking corpse army to resist An Li's invasion.
It sounds simple, but it's hard to do.
I thought that Feng Feng Ke would think for a long time, but as soon as Shen Yan'er's words fell, Feng Feng Ke replied steadily as if he had already prepared: "Yes." "It's still so concise, and there is no way back for future rebellion.
Shen Yan'er's heart was shocked, and she stared at his pious gaze in amazement.
Because he promised too lightly, Shen Yan'er couldn't believe it. Did he really make a decision long ago, or did he deliberately weave a lie?
In the face of the hated father-killing enemy, how many of the words he just said were true and how many were false? Can you really trust him?
Shen Yan'er hesitated and couldn't make a decision. In the end, as if she was afraid that she would be bewitched by Phoenix Ke's earnest gaze, she lowered her head with a lot of strength and forcibly tore away from the gaze of Phoenix Ke and Phoenix Ke.
"Why...... Is it a show girl? Shen Yan'er has never been able to let go of this. Even if it is for the study of the walking dead, it should not kill so many innocent show girls.
Phoenix Ke replied methodically, "Because they can't be soldiers, because their lives should be saved for future battlefields." It can't be farmers, because they have to grow rice and grow grain. It can't be an old man, because neither strength nor speed can be used as a reference. Not even children, because they are the future of the country......"
"So it can only be a show girl?"
Shen Yan'er said the final conclusion for Feng Feng Ke.
Xiunu, a woman who has lived in the harem all her life, has not contributed to the construction of the country's social society, and her only value is to extend the heirs of the royal family and serve the emperor's life. For an emperor whose heart is full of apocalyptic fears, the existence of the show girl is indeed dispensable. Compared to others, Xiu Girl is indeed a group of useless idlers.
Although Feng Feng Ke didn't say these words directly, Shen Yan'er knew that he was thinking like this. To put it nicely, life is equal, but in fact it is not equal. Those who are unable to contribute more and more are destined to be "sacrificed" one step earlier.
"In terms of age, the show girl is the closest to the soldier. Moreover, my dynasty is still martial, and the martial arts and reflexes of the show girl are also similar to those of soldiers. Coupled with the fact that our dynasty has a tradition of armed drafting, there is no place more suitable for studying the ecology and evolution of the walking dead than the closed cave of the mass grave. ”
Phoenix Ke calmly explained the reason for choosing the show girl as a sacrifice. Shen Yan'er thought that she would be angry again, but to her surprise, she didn't. Because she understands that she can't change anything, since Feng Feng Ke has already thought so deeply, no matter what big reason she tells him, it will be useless.
"Don't you think that's too cruel?" In the end, the only thing that can be said is such a weak question.
"When the truth can be revealed to the world one day, I will erect a monument to commemorate all the beautiful girls who died in the mass graves to commemorate their sacrifices and contributions." Phoenix Ke can make up for the show girl, that's all.
