"We're being targeted." Li Xin looked around at the buildings on both sides of the dilapidated street, stared back at the limping Alice, and asked, "Are you sure you hide the man near here?" ”
"No, it can't be." Alice said hoarsely, "I'm sure there aren't any other mutants around here. ”
"Just because there are no mutants doesn't mean there aren't survivors." Li Xin quickened his pace and entered the shadow of the ruins of the building to escape the scorching sun, and he did not forget to remind the two: "Be careful around, I don't want to capsize in the gutter." As soon as he turned the corner of the staircase, he heard hurried footsteps, and there were indeed other people on this floor, Alice was worried about his man, and ran up the stairs in pain, but because his body was leaning against the wall, he looked very wolf.
"How many floors are you hiding him!"
"Second room on the staircase on the fourth floor." Alice slowly climbed the stairs with Yayun's support. When they climbed to the fourth floor, there was already someone waiting for them somewhere, the silence at the entrance of the stairs was terrible, and Li Xin walked cautiously against the wall in the dead corner. When he stepped through the wooden door, a cold muzzle was already on his forehead.
A thin and indifferent middle-aged man wearing a cloak of animal skins stood up and said with a cruel smile: "Shadow Fist, I didn't expect you to have such a day, don't move, I know you're strong, but I'm sure you can't dodge bullets." ”
Li Xin suddenly smelled: "Do we have a grudge?" ”
"Nope!" The man shook his head and continued to mutter, "Do you need hatred to kill a person now?" If you insist on saying it, when you break into our place, we have already taken revenge. ”
"That's right, if you want to kill someone, you can have any reason." Li Xin nodded in understanding. In the Dark Ages, you don't need a reason to kill, as long as you have a gun, a hard fist is the best reason.
"I didn't expect your Shadow Fist to die one day at the hands of a little minion like me." The middle-aged man's indifferent expression showed a hint of unprecedented madness and pride: "Remember, the person who killed you is ......"
Li Xin trembled and mocked contemptuously: "I'm not interested, and I don't want to know who you are." ”
"How dare you, send me to hell to confess, bastard!" The middle-aged man tried to pull the trigger, but suddenly Li Xin's figure suddenly disappeared from his eyes, and a pair of strong arms reached up and grabbed his throat.
"If you don't talk that nonsense, maybe there's a chance to kill me, but now you can die." Li Xin pulled the other party against the wall and broke his neck.
"Who is he?" Yayun looked at the man who was slumped on the ground and tilted his head, and asked hoarsely, "Enemy?" ”
"Obviously!" Li Xin picked up the pistol, opened the magazine and found that there were only two bullets left in it, and sighed deeply, although the number of bullets was not much, it was enough to blow his head, there was indeed no danger just now, if it wasn't for the other party's series of nonsense and distractions that gave him a chance.
"Grand, what's wrong, I just seemed to ......" The door of the corridor suddenly opened, and a man poked his head out, impatiently. As soon as he said half of his words, he looked at Li Xin and his party in surprise, and finally noticed that the dead man who fell to the ground touched his fingers like a pistol on his belt, and when he was about to lift it, it was too late, the man's head suddenly exploded with a bloody flower, a bullet hit his forehead, the sharp gunshot echoed in the corridor, and a wisp of white smoke rose from the pitch-black muzzle of the pistol in Li Xin's hand.
The corpse that fell to the ground was dragged in, and there seemed to be the other party's companion in the room! Li Xin kicked hard, broke the door mercilessly, and broke in, and the unlucky guy just fell to the ground by the door.
There was a thick smell of blood in the room, and a dismembered corpse was on the bed.
Alice slammed into the room, and her boyfriend's loss cried out in disbelief, almost passing out.
Li Xin picked up the man who was pressed on the chair, pointed to the corpse on the bed and asked, "You didn't kill him?" ”
"Nope! He's dead. The man said in a panic, "This is where we stock up on food, and we have people who have broken in and searched the building, and finally found the man's body on the bed." ”
Li Xin's face showed a somewhat disgusted expression, and he asked hoarsely, "You are butchers?" For these guys who even make people into jerky, Li Xin has a certain instinctive boredom in his heart.
"Food is getting scarce, if ......," the man explained in fear, but Alice grabbed her throat and interrupted it abruptly.
"It's these guys, it's they who stole my food, it's they who killed Aoyu." Alice roared fiercely: "I will kill him, I will avenge Aoyu!" ”
The face of the man known as the butcher turned from white to purple, and his hands and feet struggled painfully, but it was a pity how could he break free from Li Xin's comfort, and finally drooped weakly and was killed hard.
"Aoyu, I finally avenged you, I avenged you" Alice sat on the ground weakly, crying with blank eyes.
Yayun suddenly asked, "What is a butcher!" ”
"Generally refers to people who make corpses into jerky." Li Xin looked at the corpses on the bed in disgust, and said indifferently: "In other words, this is a slaughterhouse!" Noticing Yayun's puzzled expression, he added, "It's the place where the corpses are disposed of and the meat strips are dried." Don't forget, it's a short walk from Camp Cortez. ”
Yayun said incredulously: "Human corpses will also be made into jerky, and they hunt other people to make jerky?" ”
"Not enough food!" Li Xin said coldly: "In this scorching hot environment, the number of mutant beasts has greatly decreased, and some mutant beasts cannot be used, and the corpses of the dead are fully used. ”
"It is said that human flesh is better than that of mutant beasts, and it is widely acclaimed. While most people are morally bound to prohibit the killing of humans for food, a small number of people do, and the corpses become food for some people anyway when people are killed a few days apart at Camp Cortez. He explained that although it may seem creepy on the surface, after getting used to it, it becomes a mentality of nothing more.
"No, how can they do that." Alice sat on the ground trembling and weeping, obviously unable to accept the fact that the flesh on his lover's corpse had been removed piece by piece to make jerky.
"Why can't you do that?" Li Xin sneered: "If you mention the flesh and blood of this man's corpse, that man will be resurrected, I believe that the short knife in your hand will not have any hesitation." ”
"But he's dead, he's dead." Alice frantically pounced on the man, wielding the blade in her hand to completely dismember his body, and now felt unbearable depression and anger in her heart.
"Have you eaten it?" Yayun asked curiously.
Li Xin shook his head and said affirmatively: "No, it doesn't mean that I don't dare to eat it, but I don't need it." This is the world of the jungle, and if you want to survive, you have to be stronger and more ruthless than others! ”
"It's time for us to go, I can't stand the smell here!" Yayun didn't intend to stay here any longer, glanced at the woman in pain and said, "It's time to go Alice, there is nothing worth remembering this corpse, I don't think you should expect me to drag you away with a bracelet!" ”
"Why don't you understand?" Alice pointed at Li Xin and shouted angrily: "If this man dies, won't you be sad?" ”
"She won't!"
The person who answered was indeed Li Xin, and the expression on his face was understated, as if he didn't care at all.
Yayun opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, and finally quietly closed her mouth and was silent.
"Don't be surprised, because there is no such thing as love in this world at all." Li Xin walked to Alice's side, reached out and stroked the other party's face, and said softly: "If you can't show your value, you will stare at being chained and keep you in captivity as a toy for fun." ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the room, Alice looked at the backs of the two people in front of her meaningfully, and involuntarily clenched the dagger in her hand.
Shortly after the three of them left the building, they encountered several strange cloaked people.
"The Black Merchant has something to do with you!" One of the cloaked men took off the hood on top of his head.
Li Xin noticed that his crooked nose was the middle-aged steward of the black businessman Tony. He nodded, motioning for Yayun and Alice to follow him.
A few minutes later, the trio arrived at the black merchant's residence and saw Tony, who was entangled with two twin girls.
When Li Xin saw this scene, he said with an annoyed face: "You'd better give me a suitable reason." ”
"As far as I know, Blake got a bullet chain out of nowhere." Tony got up from the two girls, put on a pair of crisp swim trunks under the clothes of the swimsuit servant, and continued: "I look like he is being targeted, and I can't get out of the time." ”
"What does that have to do with me!" Li Xin asked with a pout.
The black merchant reminded: "Leng Lingcao, Blake somehow learned that you have Leng Lingcao's care, and he wants to exchange a large number of bullets with you!" ”
"I don't have a choice, right?"
"That's right, if you don't want to, Blake will send these bullets into your body and take the cold grass from your corpse." The black merchant Tony said helplessly: "Blake has already wanted me to warn, give it to him, if it really works, we will find other Leng Ling grass." ”
"When is he?"
"The sooner the better, but you send it to him personally."
