Chapter 373: Is It Necessary to Do It To This Extent?
"We're old bones, we're going to die...... There is no point in us living, we are covered in rheumatic pain, we can't sleep every night, and we are really old, and if we continue to live, we will only waste food...... Whining! "Obviously, there are many elderly survivors who feel better alive than dead. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The voice is full of inexhaustible sadness and determination, even if there are outsiders, they don't care, they just reveal their inner thoughts.
This kind of scene is so helpless and desolate...... So much so that no one cares about Zhu Zilong's pretense anymore.
Many people on the side were chatting, and according to their content, Zhu Zilong understood. In fact, in recent times, suicide is not uncommon, there are dozens of people every day, and sometimes even an entire family, wife and children, commit suicide together.
After they went to Huangquan Road together, even the body was buried with the help of neighbors......
Seeing that so many people were miserable, suddenly Lei Jun stepped forward and said to the old people he knew: "Don't be like this, don't give up, you can take this first, you won't be hungry and panic after eating this." Sister-in-law Wang, Uncle Liu, Brother Wang, you listen to me, I will soon be able to break through to the peak of the second order, and when the time comes, I will become stronger and lead my comrades out to hunt more insect meat and beast meat. Food will be doubled, no, tenfold! By then, I'll have access to ten times more food than I do now, enough to feed more people. You are all people I know, don't give up! ”
I saw that in the next second, Lei Jun's face was red, he roared loudly, and at the same time took out a large piece of insect meat from his backpack, tore it into small pieces of meat in three or two clicks, and handed it to the group of middle-aged and elderly people.
These insect flesh were picked from the insects that Zhu Zilong helped them kill just now.
This is also the reason why they don't go too fast along the way, because there is a lot of tender meat to carry along the way in the bag.
It was also because of the magic crystal that Zhu Zilong gave to Lei Jun that he felt that he had the hope of improving his level and becoming an existence at the peak of the second order from the middle of the second order. When the strength increases, the confidence will naturally rise.
It's just that these insect meat generally have to be processed before they can be eaten. If eaten directly, only the Awakened and Evolvers can be completely non-toxic to digest.
Like these middle-aged and elderly people, if they are directly consumed, they will produce a lot of toxic residues in the body, which is equivalent to chronic suicide.
In addition, after more than a year of evolution, these bugs have also evolved some functions to protect themselves from being inconvenient for other races. The meat is stained with a disgusting liquid, and it tastes terrible, not only is it difficult to bake, but it also tastes so bad that it tastes like you're eating leather!
However, anyway. It's better to be able to feed your stomach than to starve to death.
"Little Army...... We can't accept your food anymore, you are tired and tired, risking your life to spend a few days outside, collecting hundreds of catties of food, and you still have a large group of relatives at home who can't get enough to eat......" An elderly person held the worm meat, sobbing and wiping her tears with grief, and at the same time there was a "cooing" sound in her stomach, obviously really hungry.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have said no and took the worm meat anyway.
Of course, this behavior of hers is understandable. After all, in the face of the pressure of survival, to have a bite of food to eat, Ende wrote down, and both parties were voluntary. There's nothing wrong with taking it!
Lei Jun seemed to be afraid that the elderly would not eat enough, and took out some wild fruits from his backpack and distributed them to the hands of the group of middle-aged and elderly people, these wild fruits are not as delicious as modern hybrid fruits, but native unknown fruits, the taste is extremely poor, the juice is sour, and when you bite into it, it is like pouring a mouthful of old vinegar, so sour that even your teeth are soft.
However, it is already a great joy to be able to eat this kind of wild fruit in a time of famine, and many people in this base can't eat even wild vegetables, let alone eat wild fruits.
One by one, the kindness made a group of elderly people cry, and they were so grateful that they couldn't say anything.
Zhu Zilong watched silently from the side, if it was him. I'm sorry, he can't even do it to this extent, really. Because Zhu Zilong thinks that he is not the Holy Mother.
Moreover, in terms of this theory of the law of the jungle, except for his relatives and friends who must be forcibly protected.
What is the point of other elderly people living alone in this world, they have no one to rely on, their children have died cleanly? Moreover, he was riddled with diseases, and he had to endure rheumatism and bone pain every day, and he was in a painful depression all the time. Even basic food is not guaranteed...... Rather than living so hard, it is better to find a happy way to leave this world...... Isn't it?
Therefore, if Zhu Zilong acted from Lei Jun's point of view, he might also give some food, but he would never give so much. Not to mention guaranteeing anything, in the future, when the ability has increased greatly, it will casually guarantee the necessities of others' lives in the future.
After all, people are selfish. Moreover, some things, in the case of doing what you can, depend on the feelings.
Maybe Lei Jun regarded these old people as relatives and friends, but unfortunately, Zhu Zilong didn't know them. Maybe if it was an acquaintance and neighbor he knew or something, maybe Zhu Zilong would have a slight possibility, and he would give him more food. And a little bit of the ability to live, right?
This may be the question of the position of the butt deciding the head!
If it's really a stranger you don't know at all, then it's a different story.
Because, the elderly and children are the most vulnerable groups in the last days, and these people even need others to take care of their basic survival, not to mention self-improvement, especially the elderly with weak physique, not only can not fuse crystals to become stronger, but also have dark diseases. It often drags everyone down......
Starting from the overall situation of human evolution, it seems that it is not too cruel to let them settle in the earth as soon as possible, and let them no longer confront this terrible world with nature.
Because, in this last days, it is really hard and difficult, is it really good for them to live?
Just like a severe patient with unbearable pain, for them, "euthanasia" may be what they want most, and continuing to endure the pain of the disease can really help?

Therefore, when Lei Jun walked back, Zhu Zilong quietly revealed his meaning to him.
As a result, Lei Jun seemed to have a great reaction, and hurriedly distinguished: "No...... That's not true! I can't watch them die, no matter how old they are. No matter how cumbersome it is...... I also have to take care of them for the rest of my life, after all, we grew up in the same yard, and their children and I are also the children of Qingmei X Ma! ”
I see, hearing such an answer, Zhu Zilong was silent.
Everyone's values are different, from a moral point of view. Naturally, Lei Jun is right and Zhu Zilong is wrong.
But from the perspective of the end times, Zhu Zilong is right now. Because the survival resources are extremely limited, if you just raise your hand, it is another matter.
Even if there is extra food, you should use the excess food to make your family's life more stable, even if you really want to help others. We should also help those teenagers, young people, and prime of life who have the value of training...... Because it can be organized as a force.
After thinking about it, Zhu Zilong still didn't understand, even if he was small with their children, was it necessary to do it to this extent?
