Chapter 17: Cannibalism

Someone asks for a drink, but of course it's disrespectful.

Under Duncan's arrangement, Wang Qiang led his men and Ma Desheng to follow Duncan to the only tavern in the settlement.

Duncan was apparently a local patron, and before anyone was served, the large bowl of burning knives was put on the table. Wang Qiang took a big sip of the wine bowl, feeling the hot and scorching taste of the wine.

"What kind of wine is this? It doesn't taste very good. Wang Qiang said.

Mu Erkang on the side said: "It's good to drink wine with wine, Brother Qiang, Brother Qiang, bring me a bowl quickly, I haven't seen wine for a long time!" ”

Wang Qiang handed the wine bowl to Mu Erkang, who raised it and poured it, and then almost vomited.

"Damn, this is blended! Industrial ethanol? Mulkan said.

The so-called industrial ethanol blending is a fake wine from the old republican period.

Duncan said angrily: "Brother, your taste is quite high, the natural environment in the north can't grow grains at all these days, where can I find you homebrew, it's good to drink it with blending." ”

Wang Qiang listened to Duncan's words, and said in his heart that this is also the truth.

But Brother Qiang was not interested in the industrial alcohol mixed with water, so he simply rewarded Peng Shen and Zhao Kun with his share.

Peng Shen is also an old drunkard, and he grabbed the wine bowl with Zhao Kun and poured it, which is really three points more terrible than a starving ghost.

At this time, Duncan withdrew from the people around him and began to complain at Ma Desheng.

"Do you think this guy is a human being? Damn, how many people have been arrested over the years? How many of these people are alive? With this kind of guy here, the settlement can't be better. Duncan scolded.

Ma Desheng also said: "I wish everyone knows the reputation of the Sanhe Settlement. Like me, Ma is outside, although I do all the plundering for a living, but I never kill people easily, I only rob money, not sex, and I don't kill casually. But this blessing is different, he is a person without rules, if it weren't for the lord's weight, he would suffer a big loss sooner or later. ”

Duncan shook his head and said, "No, no, no, it's not that he's going to suffer a big loss sooner or later, but he's already been punished, he's been retributed!" I got the news just now that a team of 100 people under this guy's command was wiped out! ”

"Oh? Who would dare to do such a big thing? Could it be the regular troops of the Kyoto ghetto? Ma Desheng said.

"Hell knows, I went to the lord's mansion and heard the lord talking to him about it, and he put the blame on the Kyoto settlement, but I know that it's not that simple." Duncan took a sip of wine and talked.

"What do you think?" Ma Desheng asked.

"The army in the Kyoto Ghetto is not strong enough to wipe out a hunting team, you should know. If the Kyoto settlement had been so strong, we would have been wiped out long ago. You're right? Duncan was analyzing, quick thinkers, and it seemed that industrial alcohol had not in any way undermined his keen ability to think.

Ma Desheng nodded: "According to the character of wishing the situation to be extremely vicious and evil, who will put a tiger's whisker on his head?" ”

"He's a hairy tiger, he's a scavenging wolf at most." Duncan muttered, clearly not very happy with Ma Desheng's analogy.

"How do I know who he provoked, this guy is arresting and selling people everywhere, and there are not a few survivors who have been killed, and there are many people who have a deep hatred for him. I reckon those who seek revenge on him will be able to line up from Beijing to Guangzhou. Duncan drank another glass of wine, his eyes flushed red, out of place with his blue and black face.

Wang Qiang sat on the side as a companion and became a loyal listener, and for Brother Qiang, it would be helpful for him to know more about the inside story of the Sanhe settlement. It's just that the more he listened, the more Brother Qiang felt that these people were talking about themselves.

Could it be that the smuggler team they killed was the one they said they were talking about?

At this time, Ma Desheng opened his mouth and said: "Brother Deng, in this Sanhe settlement, you have a very good relationship with several other real power factions, why don't you consider going to the next level?" ”

Duncan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Ma Desheng lowered his voice and said: "Over the years, the things your lord has done are all things that cut off children and grandchildren, and you are not afraid of retribution for such a person?" It's better to find an opportunity to kill him, and then get rid of those people who don't look like people and zombies, and develop the settlement well, maybe one day it can get into the Kyoto settlement! In my opinion, this is the right way. ”

"You...... Alas. Duncan listened to Ma Desheng's words, his expression changed from anger to helplessness to sighing, and finally he could only drink another glass of bitter wine.

"I don't have the idea you said, not only me, but also several other powerful people who have people in their hands also report the same idea. Everyone knows that Qiao Shiguan has lost his conscience, but no one dares to do it if he and his cannibalistic subordinates are afraid! A few years ago, the Lei brothers did it, and the fate after the failure can be called a miserable, and I still remember it vividly. Duncan said with a look of horror on his face.

Wang Qiang listened to it for a long time, and felt that the conversation between the two was the same as constipation, and many key words were never willing to be said too thoroughly, so he asked, "Who is this Lei family brother?" How can death be miserable? Why do you remember it so well? ”

Wang Qiang asked several questions in a row, and Duncan was speechless.

Duncan drank a glass of wine and said slowly: "This Lei family brother was originally from Shandong, both of them have practiced good martial arts, and they are also heroic and righteous, and they have some supporters in the settlement. A few years ago, the Lei brothers really couldn't get used to Qiao Shiguan's bad behavior, and openly argued with Qiao Shiguan, so they set off an open duel. In the duel, Qiao Shiguan defeated the Lei brothers with one enemy and two enemies, and broke the two of them in public. You must know that the person who has broken his hands and feet, even if he is good, is not neat enough, this Lei family brother is useless. ”

At this point, Duncan took a sip of the bottle before he had the courage to continue, as if only alcohol could give him the courage to remember.

The victory of the challenge reaffirmed Qiao Shiguan's power, and that night, he feasted the upper echelons of the settlement. You'll never imagine what the main course of the night would be. Duncan's voice was long, sounding a little tired.

"What is it?" Wang Qiang asked.

"What else could it be? The Sanhe Settlement is so big, and there are only seventeen or eighteen people who are qualified to sit at the table, and I can't dream that day, Qiao Shiguan actually invited us to a living banquet! Duncan replied.

A feast for the living?

What is it?

Could it be ......

Wang Qiang thought of a possibility.

They washed and stripped the Lei brothers, and then tied them firmly with eight steel drills, hands and feet, waist and abdomen and head, and the last two steel drills were fixed vertically from head to toe. This kind of bondage, even the Lei family brothers did not want to break free from the shackles in their heyday, not to mention that at that time, they had already broken their tendons and tendons.

The Lei brothers were pushed into the hall like this, and although they were controlled by others, the two still scolded.

Qiao Shiguan couldn't stand the noise, so he used a knife to cut off the tongues of the two, and then presented the two in front of everyone. Duncan said slowly, as if he had gone back to that day.

Wang Qiang listened quietly, and from Duncan's tone, he could sense Duncan's deep fear in his heart.

"At that time, there were two tables in front of each of us, one table was a shabu-shabu for mutton shabu, and the boiling oil soup bubbled up from the bottom of the pot, and one by one huge bubbles bubbled out, and then burst into the exposed air...... The base of the mutton shabu is laid out on the table, with rare adult sesame oil, expired light soy sauce and oil consumption, as well as tofu produced fifteen years ago, and muddy black chili oil with no production date visible.

On the other table, there was a charcoal grill on which the grilled food was self-served, and a stack of cumin and dried chili peppers were laid out, and I can still remember the pungent smell of cumin. I swear to God, to get so many ingredients, Qiao Shiguan may have emptied his private storage.

By that time, we all knew about this banquet, and Qiao Shiguan invited me to eat!

At that time, Qiao Shiguan picked up the Ingisha knife on the table, strolled to Lei Da's side, and cut it along Lei Da's ribs! Blood rushed out of the wound, and the smell of blood in the air suppressed the smell of all the ingredients, making people want to gag.

I watched as Lei Da's body was shaking and spasming, but the fixture made his struggle pointless.

Qiao Shiguan cut a piece of rib meat from Lei Da's ribs, then walked back with it, and then cut the bloody human flesh into thin slices on the cutting board. Qiao Shiguan's knife skills have always been good, and the slices of meat cut are as thin as one, looking bright red and bloody.

And then...... After Qiao Shiguan cut the meat, he picked up the chopsticks, sandwiched a spoon, stretched it into the shabu-shabu and gently shook it. Then he took some of the sauce that accompanied it and threw it straight into his mouth! ”

With that, Duncan picked up the bottle and poured it down.

"I still can't forget Qiao Shiguan's expression of enjoyment, he kept inviting us to help ourselves, under his demonic gaze, no one dared to go against his last wishes." Duncan drank a bottle of wine and was already drunk.

"Forget it, don't talk about it! It's useless to say it, it's just a futile complaint. With that, Duncan picked up the bottle and shook it, but it was already empty.

"Boss, bring another bottle of wine!" Duncan shouted.

Wang Qiang quietly listened to Duncan's narration and knew that the lord of the Three Rivers Settlement was a guy who ate human flesh!

Damn it!

"Your lord actually eats people, don't you stop it?" Wang Qiang asked.

"Isn't it weird to eat people? In this north, when you are poor, not to mention people, zombies can also eat! Duncan replied.

"What! You eat zombies? Wang Qiang was taken aback, this is much more delicious than eating.

"Zombie meat is said to kill viruses when cooked at high temperatures, and it tastes less delicious than spoiled rat meat, but it's much better than canned herring. Although zombie meat still has the risk of infection when eaten, it can't stop people from starving, this person is hungry, let alone zombies, even bark, soil, reinforced glass, and have to eat it. Compared with eating reinforced concrete, cannibalism is a fart. Duncan scolded, apparently the wine was already on the rise.

Wang Qiang's heart has been completely conquered by Duncan's words, if this person is hungry enough to eat dirt, then cannibalism is really nothing.

Later, Lei Da and Lei Er were eaten up by everyone...... At that time, no one dared not eat, if anyone didn't eat, they would be hated by Qiao Shiguan, and the fate of the Lei family brothers would be their own fate! Duncan said.

Ma Desheng smiled and said: "Actually, this is nothing, for people who often eat human flesh, they have long been numb, who cares?" ”

"Indeed, as Ma Desheng said, there are many things you haven't seen in this Three Rivers settlement." Duncan said with some amusement.

While chatting, one of Ma Desheng's subordinates came to him and whispered a few words in Ma Desheng's ear.

"Brother Wang Qiang, the Zhang Wei you are looking for, they have found it." Ma Desheng said.

Before Wang Qiang could speak, Peng Shen beside him asked anxiously: "Where, where is Zhang Wei?" ”

Wang Qiang said to Ma Desheng: "The person is there, let's go find him." ”

Duncan slapped the table and said, "Why bother, when I have someone summon him over, it's not a role, it's worth us to meet him?" ”

Say, Duncan opened his throat and roared, and the men who had been waiting outside the tavern poured in: "What does the boss command?" ”

Duncan pointed to the little brother who was reporting to Ma Desheng and said, "You follow him and bring someone to me." ”

A few of his subordinates had to be ordered to run out of the tavern, and after a while, they really brought back a middle-aged man with a yellow face and thin muscles.

Wang Qiang observed that this man was in his forties, with a small face and a narrow forehead, unkempt hair like a withered bush, God knows how long he hadn't washed it, a pair of eyes were chaotic, and there was a purple birthmark on the corner of his face. The man couldn't stop saying hello when he saw Duncan, obviously unprepared for the summons of the big people in the settlement, and he was restrained and apprehensive at this time.

Duncan was too lazy to see this kind of little person in general, and waved his hand at Wang Qiang and said, "The person brought it, can you see if it's him?" ”

Wang Qiang turned his head to look at Peng Shen, the old man was carefully observing the middle-aged man at this time, but he never dared to confirm that this man was his son-in-law.

"Are you...... Dad? It was the man who recognized the old man first, and asked suspiciously.

Peng Shen was overjoyed, grabbed Zhang Wei's hand, and tears dripped down: "Zhang Wei, I'm looking for you so hard!" Where's my Yuanyuan? ”

Zhang Wei was also very excited, but he didn't dare to make much movement in front of Duncan, but glanced around with some fear, and whispered, "Teacher Peng, let's go out and talk, okay?" ”

Peng Shen nodded, and made a color at Wang Qiang.

Wang Qiang got up and said goodbye: "Since someone found me, I will do my business first, and I will leave." ”

Duncan smiled: "Brother Wang, go and come back when you're done." ”

Wang Qiang nodded, said hello to Ma Desheng and went out.

Zhang Wei, who was following Peng Shen, was surprised, the strange beard in front of him seemed to have a lot to do with Boss Deng, and it seemed that he would have a bright future in the settlement.

After Wang Qiang left, Duncan asked Ma Desheng: "What is the origin of this person, he seems to have some strength, but is it worth your deliberate friendship?" ”

Ma Desheng said meaningfully: "Of course it's worth befriending, this person is definitely not an ordinary person, Brother Deng, maybe your opportunity has come." ”

"What chance?" Duncan was puzzled.

Ma Desheng smiled very mysteriously, but no longer clicked through.

Smart people are like that, they pretend to be forced to speak.

……

Wang Qiang and his entourage followed Zhang Wei to the depths of the settlement.

Zhang Wei's house is very close to the exit, and it belongs to the worst kind of location, which fully says that he did not have a good time in the settlement. After beating around the bush and finally coming to a dilapidated house of 20 square meters, Zhang Wei said the place.

This is Zhang Wei's home, built out of discarded plastic and synthetic boards, which have rotted and degummed over time, but are better than nothing. There was no lock outside the room, just a bed and a desk, and the floor was sprinkled with books.

On the dilapidated wooden bed, a pregnant woman with a big belly was lying on it, moaning shallowly.

"Yuanyuan! Oh my daughter! Peng Shen pounced on the woman, but the woman was asleep and did not wake up.

"She was on hypnotics." Zhang Wei explained.

At this time, Mu Erkang touched Wang Qiang and whispered, "Brother Qiang, come and see." ”

Wang Qiang understood, walked out of the room, came to the settlement, and looked at Mu Erkang's hand.

But in my eyes, I have seen seven or eight pregnant women, among whom there is an old woman in her fifties, who is picking up garbage with a big belly, and she can't get up when she falls. Not far from the old woman, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl also looked into the distance with a bulging little belly.

"Why are there so many pregnant women here?" Wang Qiangqi said.

"Didn't you talk about people in the tavern just now that people are so hungry that they eat zombies, how can there be so many pregnant women, can this settlement afford to raise them? It's weird. Mulkang was also surprised.

At this time, a baby's cry came from a room not far away, accompanied by the joy of the man and the painful moan of the woman!

"Yes, I waited for nine months, and finally I did!" I saw a man rushing out of the door with a bloody package.

From the dilapidated house behind him, there was a heart-rending cry: "Come back, that's my child!" ”

Wang Qiang's face was pale, and he shouted fiercely: "Stop him!" ”

Two soldiers immediately pounced and subdued the man.

Wang Qiang opened the package and saw that it was indeed a bloody baby, the baby was blue and black, the folds of the skin on his body were comparable to the oldest old man, and the umbilical cord on the belly had not been removed.

"Where are you going?" Wang Qiang asked.

"What's the matter with you? This is my child! The man said stiffly.

Mu Erkang slapped the man in the face, and scolded: "Our boss asks you something, and if you don't talk well, Lao Tzu will serve you with this." ”

Mulkan aimed the double-barreled* shotgun in his hand at the man.

The man was afraid, and hurriedly explained, "I'm going to go to the lord's mansion." ”

"What are you going to do?" Wang Qiang asked.

Going to the lord's mansion with a newborn child, could it be that the lord opened a nursery?

The man stammered and replied, "We have a rule here that a newborn child can be exchanged for two hundred days of rations. ”
