Chapter 12 [What to Choose?] 】
"However, I estimate that Li Yifang and Gao Yue are not much different." The fat man thought for a moment and said.
"I know." Ye Xiao let out a long breath, shook off the little strangeness in his heart, and nodded.
No one can always calculate the success rate of other people, after all, every day is so dangerous, I don't know when I die, where there may still be the heart to pay attention to others? And in the last days, no one will really trust others, so naturally they have to keep a hand.
Fat Man and Ye Xiao are exceptions, the two are fellow villagers, neighbors, and classmates...... From childhood to adulthood, the good ones can wear the same pair of pants. There is absolute trust in each other.
In fact, if you want to truly survive in the last days, absolute trust is the real foundation.
It's a pity, who will really trust another person if they are not familiar with it? People's hearts are separated from the belly, you don't know this person's temperament, rashly believe in others, just afraid that someone will sell them and help them count the money.
"Was there really nothing just now?" The fat man suddenly asked another question.
Ye Xiao was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "That time beast was originally a golden ......"
"Golden?" The fat man was startled, and his eyes lit up and said, "I've never heard of the golden time beast ......."
"I haven't heard of it either." When it came to this golden time beast, Ye Xiao didn't seem to have a good conversation, and after he said a word, he fell silent.
"You say...... Lin Yaowen They glanced at any cost this time, could the purpose be this golden time beast? …… Hmm, no, the footsteps at that time sounded very heavy, not like this kind of beast ......" The fat man muttered with his eyebrows on the side, and after a while, he inadvertently saw Ye Xiao's expression, which made him stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, he grinned.
"Uncomfortable?"
Ye Xiao was still a little dazed, and the fat man's voice sounded, making him stunned for a moment: "What? ”
"Do you feel like you've done something wrong? Feel like you've broken the agreement, and I'm a little sorry for Gao Yue? The fat man grinned and asked again.
Ye Xiao frowned, and after a moment of silence, he nodded slightly.
"You kid......" The fat man smiled and shook his head. Then he took a long breath and looked into the distance: "Ye Xiao, the world has changed, and it is no longer the peaceful world it used to be. In this world, if you want to live, you have to fight for ...... How much have you and I experienced this month? What does this count? Is it worth your longing? ”
"Don't say you're the only one who discovered the golden time beast...... To be honest, if it were me, even if it was found together, I would not hesitate to fight! The fat man's eyes narrowed slightly, but there was a flash of ruthlessness in his eyes.
Ye Xiao's heart skipped a beat and looked at the fat man.
"In the apocalyptic world, who doesn't want to live? But I ask you, if Gao Yue had encountered this situation today, what choice would he have made? Is it to tell you where there is a golden time beast for you to absorb? Or do you want to absorb it yourself? The fat man looked at Ye Xiao and asked.
Ye Xiao was stunned again...... Needless to say, with Gao Yue's temperament, he would definitely not hesitate to make the same choice as Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao was silent, and after a long time, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't talk about this topic......
"You kid, you're just too soft-hearted and too sensitive. It's nothing in peacetime, but in this apocalypse......" The fat man looked at Ye Xiao, and it could be seen from his expression that he still had some guilt for that choice.
The fat man shook his head a little helplessly and smiled bitterly, this kind of thing can only be changed slowly by himself. Others? No matter how much you say, it's useless.
No more talking about the topic, and the two fell silent.
After a while, the fat man suddenly said, "Okay, don't talk about it." By the way, what is the purpose of absorbing that golden temporal beast? I don't think you're looking up? ……”
He was still a little curious about the Golden Time Beast.
"I absorbed it, and I got some 'star power'. The watch said that I didn't make the first printing and couldn't absorb it, so let me condense the first printing as soon as possible......" Ye Xiao exhaled lightly, shook off some of the guilt in his heart, and spoke.
"Star power? Can't absorb the first printing? The fat man froze for a moment.
"Yes." Ye Xiao nodded: "That energy has been absorbed, but what exactly has changed...... I can only wait for tomorrow after the first seal is condensed. ”
"Hmm." The fat man nodded thoughtfully.
As they spoke, the two had already walked onto the street, and abandoned cars were all over the street, full of desolation. From time to time, a flurry of movement can be heard coming from various abandoned houses.
In the last days, many things that would not have been possible in peacetime have become common.
"Alright, I'm starving, let's go back and eat something first." The fat man touched his stomach and spoke.
"Hmm." Ye Xiao nodded, and the two of them sped up their speed at the moment.
There are all kinds of crimes everywhere along the way, and there are even people chasing each other, and it is a mess.
On the street in the distance, a woman was dragged into the abandoned building next to her by several men laughing, the woman screamed and cried out for help in despair, Ye Xiao and the fat man glanced at it, but just shook their heads.
Of course, they can't look past this kind of thing. But to talk about saving people, that's an idiot's business...... In the last days, they are just small people, and they are not capable of helping anyone.
"The army doesn't know what to eat, and after the end of the world, the environment is getting more and more chaotic." The fat man watched the woman being dragged in, but sighed.
"There is no way to do this, there is no garrison in BJ County. The Ministry of Armed Forces is also only responsible for recruitment. It's good to have a company of troops in it. Most of the soldiers gathered in the armed forces department now are just militiamen......" Ye Xiao said in a low voice.
"I know, it's just a little weak. There is no garrison in BJ County, those police ...... One by one is worse than the previous gangsters. It's really the end of the world, and all the ** virtues are revealed. The fat man was a little angry.
"Police......" Ye Xiao shook his head.
The official establishment of the police in BJ County is probably less than the garrison. The vast majority are auxiliary police officers. To put it bluntly, it was the gangsters of the year. What kind of national pride do you want him to give this kind of person? Do you want him to serve the country and the people? That's a lot to think about.
Even if there are occasionally one or two people with a conscience, in these last days, it is quite precious to be able to restrain their behavior and not do something that violates their conscience. But to save others? Thinking too much.
"I don't know what the world has become now, and the older ones don't get much time. Lacking the leadership of these people, a group of hairy boys control the guns...... I guess it's all messed up. The fat man sighed.
