Chapter One Hundred and Six: Intrigues
As time passed, the blood-red sky outside the glass window gradually lost its color before you knew it.
In its place, there is a never-ending darkness......
With the help of some ordinary survivors, several bonfires were lit in the hall on the second floor, and the orange light flickered on and off, enveloping the entire hall in a warm and soft atmosphere.
I don't know when, on these bonfires, people set up big iron pots.
The hot water was boiling, something viscous, something I couldn't tell what it was, floating and sinking in the boiling hot water.
The air in the hall gradually filled the air with a rich, unique smell of food......
These iron pots and the food in the pot were offered by the ordinary survivors in the hall on the first floor, and in order to gather this food, many survivors even secretly hid themselves for several months, and contributed the last bit of food they used to save their lives.
No one forced them......
They also knew that these powerhouses on the second floor of the road were not too short of food......
Just because they know that tonight, these strong men who have been protecting them on the second floor will discuss their future whereabouts.
At the same time, they also know that no matter whether the result of the final discussion is to go, stay, disperse or merge, this result will be directly related to their future life and death.
They never expected themselves to be qualified to participate in the discussion that would determine the fate of their people.
They just hope that by sacrificing the little food they have, to express their obedience, and by the way, to enhance the sense of existence of these people in their hearts, so that these people on the second floor who are not related to them, but who control their fate, can think a little about them ordinary survivors when deciding their own fate, even if it is just a little more consideration, then it will be worth it for them to sacrifice this little food......
It didn't take long for the food in the pot to finally cook as a shout rang out in the hall.
Seven or eight women trotted up the stairs with dishes and chopsticks......
Of course, with the current conditions, the so-called dressing up with heart, that is, straightening out the clothes and hair, the more extravagant ones will use a small glass of water to wash the dirt on their faces a little, and some other ideas, maybe they will tear a few more holes in their already tattered clothes.
Their task is to serve these strong people upstairs with all their hearts......
Again, no one forced them to do so!
Some people will even argue for a long time over such a place.
The cruel reality forces these women who have no men and no ability to protect themselves must learn one thing, that is, how to use their bodies to attract and please those who have the ability to protect themselves.
With the hard work of these women, bowls of boiling soup were quickly distributed to everyone in the hall.
Night, food, women, campfires......
Because of the incident in the afternoon, the haze that had been haunting everyone's hearts was swept away.
Although there was no wine due to the limited conditions, the atmosphere in the hall became more and more enthusiastic with the scorching temperature......
There is only one corner to choose from......
Unlike the clear distinction between the left and right factions in the hall, that corner was neither close to the crowd on the right, nor seemed to be deliberately ignored by the crowd on the left.
Four tall and thin figures sat quietly around a bonfire without saying a word.
An extremely tragic and violent aura quietly emanated from this corner.
Even the orange-red firelight, which should have been warm, seemed to become cold when it reached this corner, with a hint of strong bloody aura.
Occasionally, one or two women in charge of distributing food pass by......
They were supposed to distribute their food to the four of them, but they hesitated......
It was such a four-way figure, and it gave them the feeling that it was as heavy as a mountain, and they were almost out of breath.
Until......
"Liu Li, you go ......"
A woman struggled in her heart for a long time, although she wanted to cling to those four people, but she never got the courage, and finally she could only vent her anger, and put the dishes and chopsticks in her hand heavily into the hands of another woman with a burned face standing beside her.
This woman's bad attitude made Liu Li's eyes flash with anger......
It was this woman who did everything she could to please herself before the Day of Apocalypse, however, after the entire world entered the end times, it was she who tried her best to humiliate herself.
It's just that Liu Li is no longer a professional elite who doesn't know much about anything except her own major, and she has learned how to hide this hatred in her heart.
"I'm afraid of death, do you want me to be tempted?"
Liu Li secretly thought in her heart......
She naturally knew that the people here were so afraid of these four people!
More precisely, afraid of one of the four of them......
She also heard about what happened in the afternoon. For some, a moody, murderous demon is indeed scarier than a villain who has done all the bad things.
But if you are not even afraid of death, will you still be afraid of him?
Maybe......
As an elite in the industry, Liu Li's intelligence naturally couldn't be too bad, and she quickly made a decision in her heart.
Under the woman's puzzled eyes, she saw that she held the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and instead of walking to the corner, she turned around and walked back to an iron pot containing food, and without saying a word, poured the food in the bowl back into the pot......
"Stinky bitch, looking for ...... death"
The man in charge of distributing the food was immediately furious, and his backhand was a slap......
"Smack......
In the crisp crisp sound, Liu Li's face immediately had a blood-red handprint.
Liu Li did not resist......
"Right...... I'm sorry! This...... This bowl is to be given to ...... Give that...... The ...... sent by the adult"
Liu Li covered the beaten place with one hand, and pointed to the corner with the other, with tears in her eyes, her face full of grievances, and she cowardly explained to the man who beat her.
Looking in the direction she pointed, the man's face couldn't help but stiffen, and then he scolded: "Damn, why didn't you say it earlier......"
For really smart people, sometimes they don't need too many means, just a little light in an inconspicuous place, and then they can achieve their goals under the impetus of unspoken rules.
When Liu Li walked to the corner again, the bowl she served was already filled with a full bowl of good pieces of meat.
And the person who can have this kind of standard treatment, the entire second floor, originally only two people......
