Chapter 18: The Numb World
Two people soon came to the field, dragging the dead loser inside. After about ten minutes, when Liu Ye was a little impatient, the two people who had just entered the field walked out again, each holding a large basin in their hands, and then the two took something from the basin and gave it to the winner. It was too far away, and Liu Ye couldn't see what it was, only that it was a black thing.
"Maybe it's a reward for the winner." Liu Ye suddenly remembered the bull ears that the Spanish bullfighter got when he won.
However, the mystery was soon revealed, and the two men left the field and walked into the stands. As the two approached, the atmosphere became lively, and many people crowded around to approach the two.
The two of them began to throw the contents of the basin to the crowd, and the atmosphere boiled for a while. The audience went crazy and approached the place where it fell, and the yellow skin rushed over impatiently.
However, when he finally saw the contents of the two people's basins, Liu Ye was angry in his heart, "It turned out to be human flesh!" "As for the things that are awarded to the winners, it seems that they are nothing more than noses and ears and so on.
"Give it to me!"
"Fuck off! This is Lao Tzu! ”
"Don't rob with Lao Tzu!"
……
Liu Ye looked at the ugliness of everyone present coldly, and sat in place without moving. The anger in his heart suddenly and inexplicably extinguished after seeing this scene. In its place is a deep sorrow to which humanity has become numb. If Yang Tian's cannibalism is a forced survival behavior, then this scene in front of them is indeed degenerate, ugly, and dirty, and it is the most real and darkest manifestation of human beings in the face of a desperate situation.
Mr. Lu Xun's human blood steamed buns in high school Chinese textbooks, Liu Ye still remembers it vividly, and he was still scorned by the ignorance of people at that time. But I didn't expect that hundreds of years later, I would see the same scene re-enacted, and even more.
Huang Pi chewed the piece of meat he had just grabbed, dark red blood ran down his lips without realizing it, and he used his blood-stained palm to send another piece of human flesh to Liu Ye, "Look! This is the freshest human flesh! Usually only those leaders in the city can enjoy it, but today I finally grabbed a piece, so you can try it while it's fresh! ”
Huang Pi, who only wanted to serve the big customer in front of him, didn't pay any attention to the changes in the other party's mood.
"Smack!"
The anger that had just been extinguished came out again, and Liu Ye slapped the meat piece in Huangpi's hand away, "You actually let Lao Tzu eat human flesh!" ”
The loud shouts sounded, everyone present was shocked, and the whole venue fell silent. However, when he saw the piece of meat that was fanned by Liu Ye, he grabbed it again. In their eyes, since this fool doesn't want it, he can't cheapen anyone else by saying anything.
Seeing this, Liu Ye was completely helpless. He knew that these people in front of him were hopeless, and the customs of the years had completely changed them, and they had changed from the initial disgust of human flesh to the pursuit of human flesh. And this popular custom in the city makes Liu Ye feel ridiculous, when has human flesh become the most delicious food?
Liu Ye turned around and left angrily, he didn't want to stay any longer, he was afraid that if he looked at it any longer, he would not be able to help but kill.
Looking at Liu Ye's figure leaving, Huang Pi seemed to understand something. After chewing in his mouth for a while, he spit out the minced meat in his mouth on the ground, looked at it reluctantly, and followed quickly.
Liu Ye, who went out, has not been able to calm down for a long time, although he has already seen the depiction of people facing the end of the world in various science fiction movies, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he still felt that those incredible pictures at that time were too superficial.
Man is indeed the most elusive animal!
Trying to get rid of that decadent mood, Liu Ye suddenly found that there were more pedestrians around him, and he was a little more excited than just now.
"Seems a little different from just now? Did something happen?" Liu Ye thought with a frown.
At this time, the yellow skin behind him ran over panting, and shouted to Liu Ye, "Hey! There's something big! The castle is mainly holding gladiatorial tournaments! ”
"Gladiatorial tournaments?"
The gladiatorial tournament is an annual event in Zhi'an Castle, and at some time of the year, the lord of the castle announces that one such tournament will be held to celebrate the establishment of Zhi'an Castle. The winner will be rewarded handsomely, and may even be valued by the lord and become his personal guard. Due to the lure of rewards, many people even come from outside the city to attend this event. Since the gladiatorial tournament is free and anyone can come to watch it, the people of the city rejoice every time the event is held, as if it were a festival.
Moreover, the gladiatorial competition is much more exciting than the gladiatorial fights held on weekdays, and the gladiators on weekdays are basically provided by slave groups and hunter organizations, and sometimes some low-level personnel are forced to make a living. However, the gladiatorial competition is basically attended by people with strength, and the two are not the same.
However, after the scene just now, Liu Ye was really tired of the so-called gladiatorial fight, and he didn't want to watch this kind of barbaric and boring tearing and fighting between the same kind anymore.
"Stop!"
When he was bored, someone suddenly stopped him from behind. Liu Ye turned around impatiently and looked at the person who stopped him.
A middle-aged man with sharp-beaked monkey gills, inverted triangular eyes, blue and yellow skin, and gloomy eyes stood in front of Liu Ye. There were seven or eight men standing next to him, and one of them was the black pig who was knocked unconscious by Liu Ye at the city gate.
"Humph! I'm back looking for a field! Liu Ye saw the black pig and immediately understood, hit the dog, and the owner naturally came out!
"Is that the one you hit me?" The middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.
"Brother Ming! That's him! Liu Ye hadn't answered yet, and the black pig couldn't help but shout first.
"Not bad! That's me! Liu Ye also replied in a deep voice, staring at each other tightly with his eyes and showing no weakness.
The man who called Brother Ming glanced at the black pig with displeasure, as if he was not satisfied with his nonsense without his permission. "The person who hit me, just want to forget it! I, Wang Ming, am not a good bully! ”
"Oh, what do you want!" Liu Ye asked a little playfully.
"Hand over everything on your body, this matter will be over, otherwise ......" Wang Ming was a little apprehensive by Liu Ye's sharp eyes, but thinking that there were seven or eight people on his side, no matter how powerful the other party was, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Moreover, Wang Ming is also very tired of the black pig, if he hadn't heard the black pig say that this person seems to have a lot of oil and water, he wouldn't have bothered to care about the black pig's.
"Hahaha~~!" After listening to Wang Ming's words, Liu Ye suddenly burst out laughing.
Seeing Liu Ye's posture, everyone couldn't help but guess in their hearts, this person is not crazy, and he can still laugh in this situation. However, just as he was thinking about it, a violent roar came from his ears.
"Grass! Hit your Grandpa Liu's idea! You're not crazy! ”
Before Wang Ming and the others could react, the man in front of him suddenly rushed forward, and smashed down with a big fist covering Wang Ming. Wang Ming didn't expect this person to do what he said, but he was not a fool like a black pig, his body rolled on the spot, and he retreated to the back, dodging Liu Ye's blow.
However, Wang Ming dodged, but the people behind him did not. The person behind happened to be the black pig, so under the desperate gaze of the black pig, his fat black face made a close contact with Liu Ye for the second time today. "Bang!" This time, the black pig simply fell to the ground and fainted.
"Made him for me!" Wang Ming roared angrily, the moment just now obviously made him lose face, and he had a murderous intent for a while.
The people around rushed up, and they all drew their weapons and rushed towards Liu Ye. Lao Liu sneered in his heart, it is not a problem for this group of people to fight for more than ten or twenty when their abilities have not yet awakened, let alone now.
There was a thunderclap, and the people who rushed up were all lying on the ground under Liu Ye's punches and kicks, wailing and screaming in pain, but Wang Ming just now was gone.
Liu Ye sneered disdainfully, turned around and prepared to leave. Suddenly, a steel spear struck Liu Ye from behind, and he was about to stab him.
"Hammer!"
At some point, Liu Ye had already turned around, and the hinge wrapped around his right arm firmly blocked the stabbing spear outside. "Originally, I saw that you were a character just now, and I still wanted to let you go! But you can't blame me if you fucking fight yourself! ”
Before the words fell, his right leg had been vigorously pushed out, and Wang Ming kept the posture of a stabbing gun and flew out, but the spear in his hand was gone.
After doing all this, Liu Ye slammed the steel spear in his hand into the ground, and left without looking back, only Wang Ming, who had a resentful look on his face, stared at him from afar......
Liu Ye's mood was really bad, after the incident in the gladiatorial arena, his heart was like being stuffed with a fast stone, and he was so uncomfortable. It just so happens that there is such a group of bastards who don't have long eyes to come to the door and get beaten up themselves, so why not. But he beat them severely, and his worries were relieved a lot. Liu Ye didn't make a heavy hand, he didn't want to kill people today, he was tired of seeing blood.
However, this kind of thing can sometimes be unjustifiable.
Liu Ye, who was wandering aimlessly at the corner of the street, suddenly saw something that excited him: a car! A motorcycle!
Isn't that exactly what you're looking for here?
But then his heart cooled again, and the motorcycle was placed on a platform, with the words "Duel Tournament Prize" written next to it, and it seemed that there was still some writing in this world.
It turned out to be a prize!
In other words, it is impossible to exchange property, and it is even more impossible to steal and rob with the appearance of the heavily guarded surroundings. Even if he can grab it, the lord of this city is not something he can deal with. After the Yin incident, Liu Ye has begun to understand that some people in this world are not afraid of the power of guns at all.
Do you still have to participate in this disgusting and hated gladiatorial competition?
