Chapter 15: Seeing Through the Red Dust
As the crowd approached the camp, several more men sprang out, all of whom were unsurprisingly the former slaves who stayed behind to watch the camp. Originally, they were all menacing, but seeing that the team leader in front of him was obviously a new face, and then looking at the constant eyes of the leading guards, he instantly realized something.
After all, the guys who can survive in the last days can be bad or ruthless, but they can't be stupid, and the real fools have long been taken as prey by these gangs of villains. It's all for mixed food, and I haven't seen anyone who is loyal to the boss get an extra bite of soup to drink.
So these people who still had a fierce face just now, one by one, just like Sichuan Opera changed their faces, they became deferential and humble, and wanted to join the team. Looking at the posture, I can't help but express on the spot that I am willing to go to the soup for the new boss.
Lu Buping naturally didn't care about this, but Zhao Langtou did not refuse to come, and put on the posture of an old Jianghu, signaling his henchman to take over this group of new recruits. Although he didn't say anything, the corners of his mouth that couldn't help but curl up obviously betrayed him. But also, after all, yesterday was still a garbage guy with two or three kittens, although a little famous, but it is obviously not at the same level as this kind of frightening camp.
But now that he has changed, he seems to have really become a big man? Although I don't know how many supplies there are in the camp, it's much stronger than before, isn't it, Zhao Lang thought beautifully.
The guard led everyone around for a while, and just when Lu Buping was about to lose patience, everyone finally came to the door of a storeroom in the camp.
"It's time to arrive, this is it. A few uncles, the smell in this warehouse is not very good, why don't you stand in the back? The guard said flatteringly.
"Open the door!"
With a loud bang, the door slowly opened. A special gas, accompanied by the smell of sweat and rancidity, rushed towards everyone.
"Vomit," Zhao Langtou retched, "His grandmother's, what kind of smell is this, I almost smoked my grandfather with a big heel." Lao Tzu can be regarded as the Lord who has eaten and seen, and I have been to many disgusting gathering places, but this place really makes me bow down. As he spoke, he fanned his nose with his hand pretentiously.
Before he could finish speaking, an even more foul smell came up. It turned out that the people in the warehouse saw the door open and rushed over like crazy. The clothes of these people were in tatters, some of them were only draped in a few strips of cloth, and their whole bodies were black or red, I don't know if it was blood or something else, and they couldn't tell the color.
Seeing them rushing over, Lu Buping wanted to immediately draw his weapon to defend, but was stopped by the guard just now, signaling that there was no problem.
At this time, the group of people in the warehouse began to wail: "Uncle begs you, give me a bite to eat, just one bite." "Kill me, kill me." "Uncle let me follow you, I don't want to be here anymore."
Such miserable cries came and went, and everyone in front of them was like the evil ghosts of the eighteenth layer of hell in the legend, constantly screaming and crying.
", this uncle is looking for someone to question, hurry up." The guard impatiently grabbed the person in front of him, and even kicked twice.
At this time, Lu Buping finally saw the appearance of the warehouse, only a small number of people just rushed to the front, and more were lying weakly in the corner of the warehouse, most of these people were thin like living skeletons, their eyes were blank and their eyes were dull, thinking that if the word "hope" had anything to do with them, it was probably hoped that they could be reincarnated as soon as possible and get out of this lifeless world.
Everything in front of him hit Lu Buping's nerves like a hammer, anger filled his chest, but he didn't burst out, even if he knew what he could do, let them live better? Or to create an ideal world where everyone has food, clothing, and clothing? Don't be funny, Lu Buping is not the savior of the world, let alone a superhero. He himself is just a scavenger, his purpose is very clear, he just wants to find his father and them, and the whole family can live in peace, that's all.
"Wang Jiaoyan." Lu Buping looked around the warehouse and said softly.
At this time, an unclothed person in the warehouse heard Lu Buping's name and raised his head slightly. She didn't join the team that had just rushed up, but huddled in the corner, not knowing if she had no strength or didn't want to pay attention to it at all.
"You're looking for me?" The person in front of him slowly stood up and walked towards the landing step.
Wang Jiaoyan, this is a snobbish woman, with her good looks and figure, she has snobbish capital. Before the apocalypse, he was the personal secretary of a big leader of Lu Buping's factory. At the beginning of the apocalypse, when everyone was in a small factory, they relied on their own capital to let the men around them revolve around them.
In her consciousness, with her own means and posture, she is entitled to enjoy the best, instead of following the wrecks around her to spend time in a small factory in the dark.
So, she led two young people who coveted their beauty to go out with a batch of food to try their luck. In this way, they came across the leader of the seven guns, and two young men who loved him were killed by the leader. Wang Jiaoyan was not afraid, but felt that she had found a backer in the last days, so she told the man in front of her the address of the factory and the grain situation, and the two hit it off, and there was a tragedy behind.
But what is the leader of the seven guns? It is said that a butcher who kills like hemp is light, and a woman is just a tool for him, even a reserve of food. In this way, when they returned from the factory, this woman, who had always wanted to be a master, was rewarded by the leader to her subordinates.
No one knows how she was tortured.
Three days later, she was locked up in the factory like everyone else. At this level, that's four years.
A wrong decision ruined herself, and at the same time ruined Lu Buping's life.
For four years, Lu Buping hated Wang Jiaoyan all the time, even more than he hated the dead leader. After all, a traitor is more shameful than an enemy.
But now, when this woman stood in front of her, looking at her appearance, the hatred in her heart had partially subsided. If it weren't for the vague appearance between the eyebrows and eyes, there would not be a woman in front of him at all. She was as thin as everyone else in the warehouse, as if only bones were left, and her cheeks were sunken deeply. The face was dark and black, and it should be sweat mixed with dirt. There was only a small amount of cloth on her body to block the important position, but I think she probably didn't care anymore.
If this kind of image appears in the outside world, I am afraid that it will not be able to escape the fate of being killed on the spot as a living corpse.
In short, these are already two creatures from the delicate and fair-skinned woman in Lu Buping's impression, if it weren't for Lu Buping's impression of her too deeply, I am afraid that she would not be able to recognize it at this moment.
is such a hateful and pitiful woman, Lu Buping didn't get too excited when he saw her now, maybe it was because he had consumed too much energy by killing the leader to take revenge, or maybe it was out of sympathy for the weak?
Lu Buping himself didn't know.
But what is surprising is that even though the image of Wang Jiaoyan in front of her is so down, her eyes are surprisingly bright, not as numb and insensitive as the people around her, but have a sense of sacredness?
Lu Buping frowned, threw this strange thought out of his mind, and said, "Do you still recognize me?" ”
"I remember you." Wang Jiaoyan spoke first, "You are the first batch of survivors, are you with that father and daughter, you finally came to me." ”
"Finally? Are you waiting for me? ”
"Yes, I'm waiting for you, I know what you're here for."
Wang Jiaoyan nodded, her malnourished head seemed to fall from the top of her neck at any time, and Lu Buping was terrified when she saw it. Now I can't let her die no matter what, once Wang Jiaoyan's life is gone, her efforts in the past few years will become a joke, and she is the only one who knows the clues of her father and sister in front of her.
"So, you've already killed that bastard, right?" Wang Jiaoyan continued to ask.
Needless to say, I also knew that Wang Jiaoyan was asking about the leader of the seven guns. It stands to reason that this woman should hate the demon to death, even though most of this tragic fate was her own doing. However, most people will think that suffering is brought about by others, and that enjoying life is what they deserve, and few people will blame themselves.
But now Wang Jiaoyan is surprisingly calm, as if she is just talking about a stranger.
"Hmm." Lu Buping responded simply, and began to observe carefully.
This woman is a little too strange, and this feeling has been there since Lu Buping first saw her. In the past four years, Lu Buping has seen too many people. Whether it's hysterical lunatics or ferocious and cruel thugs, or even optimistic and cheerful survivors, these are common.
is the only one who has a feeling of "seeing through the red dust...... I know this adjective is strange, but this is indeed Lu Buping's true thoughts. Her breath was like a seeker being enlightened by a master outside the world. Or maybe the believer, after repentance, is told by the priest that "God has forgiven you".
This kind of temperament should not appear in the end of this kind of cannibalism.
Now Lu Buping is also a little confused about Wang Jiaoyan's intentions. This woman was able to make the most of everything around her four years ago for her own selfish desires. Although the result was not good, this extreme egoism still made a very deep impression on Lu Buping.
Could it be that he wanted to take this opportunity to turn over in one fell swoop, knowing that he didn't dare to kill her, so he was pretending here? Either way, finding the intel is key, even if she really wants to use herself.
I have nothing to lose.
