Chapter 2: The Meaning of Survival

The night was getting darker, and the six little ones were lying on the ground, with tattered clothes collected from outside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info It took more than a month to stack this simple bed.

"Gollum!"

The painful hunger caused Scar to open his eyes, he stood up, came to the little ones, and looked at them falling asleep with crumbs on the corners of their mouths, and Scar suddenly felt that this was what kept him alive. For these lovely brothers and sisters, and in order to find a paradise that only belongs to them in this world that has lost its humanity.

He gently placed his tattered clothes over the children's bodies, and then his eyes fell on the tiny crumbs of bread on the ground. Scar squatted down, then carefully and very seriously picked up the crumbs and put them on his left hand, and in this way, more than ten minutes passed, and he actually let Scar collect a handful, he tilted his head and poured the crumbs into his mouth, and then carefully tasted the taste.

A fat cockroach walked slowly in front of Scar, Scar reached out his right hand, pinched it directly, and then threw it into his mouth without hesitation.

If it had been half a year ago, Scar would definitely not be so hungry, but right now, there is nothing more terrifying than hunger......

In a daze, the sky was getting brighter, and he put his clothes on the mischievous little creature again, and came to the wall at the back of the room, and he moved the table away, and then tapped lightly on the floor, and then put his fingers between the loose cracks in the floor.

With a little force, Scar directly lifted the floor, and then he could see the entrance of a black hole in front of Scar's eyes. He took a deep breath, pinned the rusty dagger to his waist, and jumped lightly.

This is a secret door that Scar stumbled upon a month ago, this big house is full of weirdness, from the sturdy body, to the interior design of the empty room, especially the long passage under the floor, Scar has not had enough time to explore it so far, and he does not dare to tell his younger siblings about this passage, because Scar spends most of his time wandering outside to find food, and the children in the house are like imprisoned little animals looking forward to going out to play every day. It's just that in this world, children are the most vulnerable.

If they knew that there was a secret passage inside the big house, it was very likely that the extremely curious children would have gotten into it when Scar went out, and if there was danger, Scar would not even have a chance to regret it.

Scar casually closed the secret door, and he walked forward in black. This time, Scarlet intends to take this opportunity to grope the entire passage aside.

The buildings near the big house had already been rummaged through by him, and he couldn't find anything to eat, so he planned to go further. But even in the living zone, humans are not safe. Fights between each other happen all the time, so he needs some weapons to defend himself.

There was a lot of debris piled up in this dark passage, and the rusty dagger was the mark that had been turned out of the entrance of the passage, so this time, he planned to find something more useful, and it would be better if he could get some simple armor.

The passage was a man high, and at intervals a bedroom-like room appeared, complete with everything but in tatters, such as a wooden bed, a table, and even a rather extravagant bookcase. It's just that these pieces of furniture have become extremely fragile because of the passage of time, and they can't withstand any touch.

Walking more than ten meters away, he came to the first room, and he tried to open his eyes, trying to see clearly. In this era, fire also became a luxury. Fortunately, after getting used to the dark environment, Scar can finally barely see the contents of the house.

"It's all useless garbage."

Scar shook his head, then stepped back. The floor of the passage was littered with rubble, making it difficult to walk in the darkness, and the rubble was mixed with tiny metal fragments that could be scratched if you weren't careful.

"Hiss......"

After taking a breath of cool air, Scar had to stop, and the ball of his right foot was pierced by a sharp metal spike, and blood was already running down his tattered sneaker. Scar cursed helplessly, sighing for his bad luck. He reluctantly tore a strip of cloth from his clothes, wrapped his right foot, and continued to grope forward, unexpectedly, the blood flowing from the soles of his feet had already burrowed into the rubble in the ground, and then disappeared.

Nearly an hour had passed, and he had searched the entire passageway, and he had not spared any room, but he had gained very little. The passage had been around for many years, and its contents were unusable, with little to no sign but a rusty dagger found.

Scar wanted to burst into a foul language, but he didn't even have the strength to scold the street. The feeling of hunger made his head a little groggy, and he leaned against the corner and sat down slowly.

"It's still early, the little ones shouldn't have gotten up yet......"

Thinking so in his heart, he couldn't lift any more spirits, and fell asleep again in a daze. The wound on his right foot was still bleeding.

Scarlet blood seeped through the strip of cloth and trickled down the tattered sneakers, dripping into the rubble that fell to the ground and vanished.

As time passed, the blood dripped faster and faster, and the pieces of metal in the rubble trembled faintly......

It was as if he had had a long dream, and he dreamed that he had taken six little ones into the richest part of the human settlement. He dreamed that his front was full of all kinds of food, and he no longer had to risk his life to snatch it for a little bit of moldy bread. He can eat and drink boldly, laugh and sing happily with the six little ones......

As Scar was immersed in this wonderful dream, a piercing chirp pierced Scar's mind as fiercely as a pinprick. He opened his eyes suddenly, and a child's cry came from the exit of the passage. Scar suddenly stood up, ignoring the spikes standing upright on the ground, and rushed madly towards the entrance of the passage. The sharp metal blurred the flesh of Scar's feet, but the familiar cry stabbed Scar's fragile heart like a sharp blade. His face was distorted with worry and anger!

"I'm not leaving! I'm not going! ”

"I want my brother! Brother! Save me! ”

"Brother Trace!"

Clear voices sounded again! Unable to care about anything else, he pressed it on the floor of the exit, and he wanted to get out, but as soon as he opened a gap, a dazzling light suddenly lit up, followed by a scorching wave of air.

"Boom!"

A huge explosion burst into the sky, and the blinding flames swallowed the big house like a monstrous beast......
