Hearing the captain say this, Xiao An immediately snorted disdainfully, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Of course I understand, what don't I understand?" Isn't it that after the end of the world, the living environment of human beings is getting worse and worse. The first is that the natural environment has become harsher, and the loss of industrialization has prevented humans from even resuming agricultural production, resulting in severe food shortages. The second is the catastrophe brought about by the overlap of various horror planes, including the wilderness, that is, outside the human gathering place, full of all kinds of monsters that are extremely deadly to humans. Among these monsters, there are even intelligent and civilized races from other worlds, they are even more terrifying than ordinary monsters, because their demand for resources is much more than ordinary monsters, and they will take the initiative to attack humans and compete for the few resources that are already few. In this way, it will make the already very difficult living environment of human beings even worse. In this environment, let alone having enough to eat, even living depends on the will of God. ”

Hearing Xiao An's old look, the head of what he said was the way, the captain listened with a smile on the side, and after Xiao An finished speaking, the captain couldn't help but applaud and said: "Not bad, at your age, you can have such knowledge, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are a genius, if I can have a son like you, even if it is worth death." ”

"Cut...... Who is your son! Xiao An said disdainfully: "With your IQ, don't think about it for the rest of your life." ”

Xiao An mocked the captain like this, but he didn't make the captain angry, and the captain said with a smile: "Then what? Do you have any other ideas? ”

Xiao An glanced at the captain and snorted, "Actually...... I don't have any sympathy for humans in this environment. ”

"Huh?" The captain couldn't help frowning and asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

Xiao An rolled his eyes, spread his hands, and said, "Do you think, in this environment, isn't modern human beings actually returning to the level of primitive humans millions of years ago?" Millions of years ago, the natural environment faced by our ancestors was even worse than it is now. But in that environment, they all continue to survive, why can't humans now? And modern humans have evolved a lot more than ancient humans, right? Got more knowledge, right? If they can't compete with other creatures, they deserve extinction. ”

The captain couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and after a while, he smiled again: "I didn't expect you kid to say such philosophical things...... I underestimated you before. But when you see these people suffering, don't you have a trace of compassion in your heart? Don't you want to save them? ”

When Xiao An heard this, he glanced around, and almost all the people he could see were yellow-skinned and listless.

Xiao An frowned and said, "Hmph...... What is the value of salvation if you are willing to fall? Such a person will simply die...... Oops! ”

Xiao An covered his head and bent down.

After a while, the pain receded slightly, and Xiao An suddenly looked at the captain angrily and shouted, "Why are you hitting me?" ”

The captain Zhengse said: "I beat you because you said the wrong ......"

"Where did I say it wrong?" Xiao An was not convinced.

The captain looked at the people around him, his expression flashed with a hint of sadness, and he said: "When you see their sluggish mental state, do you feel that they are like a group of waste people who eat and wait for death, so you think they are garbage with no saving value?" ”

Xiao An frowned and said, "Isn't it?" ”

The captain shook his head, reached out and rubbed the big bag that was beaten out on the top of Xiao An's head, and said in a calm voice: "No...... You're wrong. It is because of their courage that they have sustained them to live until now......"

"Huh?" Xiao An was stunned, in his opinion, these people in the Oasis Bazaar, can they still be called alive? No, it's just a bunch of living walking dead, and he doesn't look down on the poor or the weak. What he looks down on is this kind of self-depraved and not positive people at all. They are not even as good as those ruthless scavengers, who roam the wilderness all year round, excavate the ruins of cities before the apocalypse, often fight against all kinds of monsters and aliens, act ruthlessly, and pursue the law of the jungle, but they are very much in line with Xiao An's vision of "human beings living after the apocalypse".

In his opinion, these people are just living for the sake of living, and they don't understand any meaning of life at all, they are just a bunch of waste who eat and wait for death, and have no value to save.

However, the captain said, "Look at them like this, are they really voluntary?" Timid, cowardly...... Maybe there's part of the reason for that. But isn't that what most human beings, most ordinary people, look like? They are just ordinary people, and in the face of the apocalypse, they are powerless. But...... But they survived. In this world, it is difficult to survive, but it is easy to die...... But they still didn't die, no matter how difficult it was, no matter how painful it was, they still survived, even if it was **** drinking urine, they survived. Even if it is humble, even if it is lowly...... They are human beings after all, our compatriots! ”

The captain said and spoke, but his eyes became a little dazed, he hollowed his mind, as if talking to himself, and as if he was telling Xiao An, and said:

"Everybody...... They should all be able to live with dignity, but in many cases, for them, there is only one choice between dignity and living. So, they had to choose the latter. If one day, I hope, I can build a world of peace, peace and happiness, free from strife, where everyone can live with dignity, without nations, without nations, without hatred...... Everyone can live in peace and happiness, such a world......"

Xiao An listened, but couldn't help frowning, and said: "This only exists in the utopian society or the Datong world in the book, only in the ideal, how can it be done in reality?" Don't be delusional. ”

The captain chuckled lightly, touched Xiao An's head, but his eyes had a strange complicated meaning, and said: "Xiao An, if one day, if you can do it, can you promise me to make this ideal world a reality?" Let all people be able to live with dignity and build a ...... without a nation, without a nation, without hatred A world where everyone can live in peace and happiness. ”

Xiao An frowned, slapped the captain's hand away, and snorted, "What are you kidding, how can I do this kind of thing?" Do you think I am an all-powerful God? ”

The captain laughed twice and said, "Then forget it, come, let's eat." ”

After saying that, the captain turned to Xiao Jiang and Lao Ding, who had already set up an improvised fuel stove and solid fuel, and they were boiling water in the Type 78 military kettle used by the army before the end of the world.

"Cut ......" Xiao An pursed his lips and touched his head, the big bag on his head that was knocked up by the captain was still a little painful, which made Xiao An's hatred for the captain add a little more.

Just as Xiao An was rubbing the bag on his head, suddenly, a warm paper bucket was stuffed into Xiao An's hand.

"Huh?" Xiao An was stunned for a moment, and found that it was the captain who gave him this thing.

The captain rolled his eyes and said, "Ahhhhh Hurry up and eat, don't waste time, we have to hurry after eating. ”

"Oh......" Xiao An took his hand off his head, holding the thing in his hand with both hands, just when he thought he was going to eat the kind of paste made with energy bars that he was tired of eating for a long time, he looked down and was indeed stunned.

In his hand, there was a round red paper bucket with the words "Master X's braised beef noodles" printed on it, but it was a bucket of instant noodles that were extremely rare after the apocalypse.

"This is ......" Xiao An couldn't help but swallow his saliva, instant noodles...... He had almost forgotten what the last instant noodles tasted like.

The captain rolled his eyes and snorted: "Stinky boy, pick your mouth for Lao Tzu here, if you can't finish eating, see how I clean you up!" ”

That's what he said, but who wouldn't eat such a luxury as instant noodles that they even tore open the box and licked it clean? Even after licking it clean, I was reluctant to throw it away, and I could eat a few more meals by smelling the fragrance inside.

Xiao An looked at the instant noodles in his hand...... Feeling hungrier.
