In the secret room.

As soon as he walked in, Shen Lei saw several people sitting around the fire, with an open stainless steel kettle hanging in the middle, the bottom had been smoked black, and the pot was filled with clear water.

The flickering firelight reflected the shadows of the elders on the surrounding walls, and the air was still circulating, not as bad as expected, and it seemed that there were ventilation ducts left when this place was built.

"Gollum ......"

The water in the pot quickly boiled, and a young girl with a young face bent down, took out a lump of meat from a plastic bag, and threw it into it piece by piece, and the boiling water fell silent. The girl walked to the side and turned out a black glass bottle in a bamboo basket, poured in the unknown powder, then took out a spoon, put it into the kettle and stirred it constantly, and immediately a strange fragrance spread throughout the secret room.

After smelling the fragrance, several people around involuntarily stretched out their tongues and licked their dry lips, their eyes full of hope.

"Are you cooking?" Looking at these pieces of meat, Shen Lei asked strangely, hasn't he been out for more than half a month, how can there be fresh pieces of meat, it has long been moldy and smelly.

Tang Tiande let out a "hmm", then clapped his hands and introduced to everyone: "This is a newcomer, by the way, what's your name?" ”

"Shen Lei."

"Let's welcome Shen Lei's little brother to join."

There was a sparse applause, but almost everyone was attracted by the boiling broth in the kettle, and no one cared about the newcomer, just to quickly scoop a bowl of the broth while it was cooking.

"Don't worry, they haven't eaten for three days to be like this." Tang Tiande said lightly, and walked over to join in.

Although the smell that spreads is really fragrant, the strange appearance of the meat pieces makes Shen Lei feel that there must be something strange in this!

"it!"

Shen Lei suddenly thought of something, his stomach felt uncomfortable, and he walked to the wall and sat down, at this time, the tempting fragrance seemed to be like maggots floating in the air, which was disgusting.

He was eighty percent sure that this meat was definitely human flesh!

Tang Tiande, who is timid and afraid of things, a short man with an impulsive personality and a native of the early Tang Dynasty...... These people are not as simple as they seem on the surface, even if he was hungry and fainted in his previous life, he would not touch human flesh to death, what is eating human flesh? That's a beast! What's the difference with those walking corpses, even basic morality has been lost.

"I didn't expect Uncle Tang to be able to get meat, I don't know if this meat is fresh or not?" Shen Lei said with a calm expression.

Tang Tiande turned around, stared at Shen Lei with slightly complicated eyes and said, "Of course! Why don't you try a piece of it, little brother? To be honest, the taste is good, and Xiao Mo's craftsmanship is quite good. ”

"I'd better be free, I'm not hungry." Shen Lei excused himself, jokingly, let Lao Tzu swallow these flesh, it is better to die.

There is a limit to man's bottom line, and his bottom line is not to do great evil.

Homicide? That can't be helped, if anyone wants to kill me, I will kill someone.

And it is really a sin to sacrifice the lives of others for the sake of one's own desires.

Even in the history books, there are not many incidents of cannibalism, after all, the vast majority of people still have basic conscience and virtue.

At this point, Shen Lei's sympathy for Tang Tiande and the others that had just risen immediately turned eighteen turns.

If you don't kill these people today, you are really sorry for the dead who were stuffed in snakeskin bags.

In the dark corner, a bulging snakeskin bag lay quietly, and the cement floor under it had been dyed red and black, but because the light in the whole secret room was too weak to illuminate every place, it was difficult for ordinary people to find it at a glance if they did not look carefully.

If it weren't for Shen Lei's keen observation and the hand that accidentally leaked out of the snakeskin bag, he would still be kept in the dark and would not have noticed this.

It is estimated that it is not just one who kills.

These people are crazy, absolutely insane!

Out of the antique store, there is a convenience store not far outside, which is at least enough for them to eat for many days, so why doesn't anyone have the courage to go out and find food?

Afraid of being eaten by the walking dead? Or are you afraid of getting infected?

As a person who has lived for two lives, Shen Lei also doesn't understand what their psychology is.

While the others were staring at the broth, Shen Lei stood up, ready to quietly approach the snakeskin bag to confirm his thoughts, if it was really what he guessed in his heart, then these people didn't have to live.

Humanity has been destroyed by hunger, and perhaps they are no longer human.

"What are you doing!" Not long after leaving, a sharp sound hurriedly came from the crowd.

Shen Lei shrugged and pointed to the exposed hand in the darkness and said, "What is this?" ”

Several women were also quite curious, and they got up one after another and wanted to go there, but they were stopped by several men.

"Nothing, nothing, you don't want to go." The short man who spoke out earlier trembled in his heart, and the look on his face suddenly became nervous, and he stammered.

Tang Tiande's face fell suddenly, it was obvious that he also saw the pale bloodstained hand, it was estimated that the hands and feet of these boys were not clean enough last night, and he couldn't help but curse "damn" secretly, and then pretended to be calm and said in a deep voice: "Didn't Guo Feng disappear last night?" Later, when we went to look for him, we only found his body, which we brought back for fear of being eaten by the monsters, and we were afraid that you women would be afraid, so we didn't tell you. ”

His rhetoric succeeded in convincing the unwitting women, grieving and not finding a loophole in the words.

However, the pale explanation made Shen Lei completely unable to look directly.

He laughed and said, "Open the bag and you'll know what's going on." ”

"That's right, Guo Feng is our classmate, a beginner, go and open the bag." It was Tang Churen's girlfriend who spoke, and she was also a classmate, all of whom were students at Jinling University.

When Tang Churen was in high school, he learned that his uncle's antique shop had such a secret room, and the security level was naturally not a problem, and the hard walls were enough to defend against these walking corpses.

So after the gang escaped from the school together, he took them to the antique store.

After three days of starvation, everyone was already hungry and had no strength, and the boys were about to go out to find some food but found that the whole street was full of wandering walking corpses, and the screams on the street made them stop abruptly.

They don't dare to gamble with their lives, there is only one life, and if it is gone, it will be gone.

So in the second half of last night, together with his uncle and a few other boys, he secretly killed Guo Feng while the girls were asleep, hiding his body in a snakeskin bag, and the short man was responsible for sweeping the tail, but he didn't expect to be so unreliable.

How dare he open the snakeskin bag, the flesh of Guo Feng's entire arm inside was chopped off and chopped into pieces, and he was rolling in the kettle at this time.

Shen Lei has seen a lot of hunger that makes human nature so ugly, but that is a situation that will only occur after a year or two when food becomes more and more scarce.

"Since you don't dare, let me open it." Shen Lei walked towards the snakeskin bag without hesitation.

"You dare!" Tang Tiande immediately took out the sharp knife tied to his waist, and stabbed Shen Lei directly with the bright knife, this kid is really a scourge!

"Why don't you dare?"

Shen Lei seemed to have heard a big joke, and no one had ever threatened him before.

The next moment, Tang Tiande's somewhat fat body slammed into the wall, and the back of his head was hit with blood, leaving a shallow blood mark on the wall.

The others were stunned by the sudden scene, motionless.

Shen Lei tore open the snakeskin bag, and a corpse rolled out of it, leaving only Sensen's white bones and palms on his entire right arm, and under the faint light of the fire, a pair of eyes on his pale face were round, looking extremely terrifying.

"Ahh Screams suddenly rang out from the girl's mouth.
