For more than a week, Ouyang Lizhi and his men endured unbearable torture, receiving only a small amount of food every day, and more than 50 people were crammed into a makeshift wooden house of less than 200 square meters. Although this season has passed the depths of winter, the cold wind is still biting, and it is even more difficult for these people who usually consume few calories to resist this cold.

But what is most unbearable for these people is that they have to repeat some meaningless but extremely physically demanding labor every day, except for some young children who are brought out to be protected, everyone else can only repeat this desperate and meaningless life every day.

But after a week of fighting, I have to express my admiration for Ouyang Lizhi's control over his subordinates, although Yang Feng's father and daughter set an example, but still no one took the initiative to join us, they seem to follow this Ouyang Lizhi with all their hearts, this is not consistent with the situation that Yang Feng provided me, even Meng Hu no longer accepted Rocky's invitation, but followed Ouyang Lizhi's side wholeheartedly, without the slightest hint of wavering, such a situation really made us feel a headache, After all, we can't treat them as prisoners and imprison them endlessly.

Just when we were having a headache about how to end this meaningless and protracted war, a waver finally appeared in Ouyang Lizhi's camp. A captive who couldn't bear the pressure snatched Ouyang Lizhi's rations in public and slapped him hard, although this person was immediately put down by Brother Hu and did not cause further harm to Ouyang Lizhi, but his appearance brought us hope to end this contest. Upon learning of this, I immediately asked Wang Tao to take this man out of the prisoner camp, and when this man was brought to me, I looked at him.

This is a young man of about thirty years old, his face is quite resolute, but his unkempt hair makes people look very uncomfortable, and the clothes on his body are even more dirty and torn, he stands in front of me and sees me looking at him, so he is a little unnaturally avoiding my gaze. With a look of fear on my face, I smiled at him and said, "Don't be so inhibited, sit down and eat something first." I pointed to the haode meal that had already been prepared.

The man looked at the not sumptuous but steaming meal on the table, swallowed and foamed unconsciously, and with great difficulty, he turned his gaze from the food on the table to look at me and said, "Can I really eat it?" ”

I nodded and said with a smile: "Of course you can, I don't have the bad taste of being idle and having nothing to do." However, my words obviously did not meet with the benevolent brother in front of me, and from the casual twitch of the corner of his mouth, I could tell that he thought I was talking nonsense. However, after a week of tidying up people, I still told people that I didn't like tidying people, and I felt a bit.

"Ahem" I coughed a little embarrassed and said, "Don't worry, since I invited you here, I won't be bored to play tricks on you, you eat first, and then we'll have a good talk after eating, I hope to get what I need from you." ”

The man hesitated, but in the end he couldn't resist the temptation of the food, and threw his heart on the edge of the table, gobbling up the steaming food in his mouth. While eating, he glanced up at me from time to time, as if he was afraid that I would end his meal at any time. But I kept looking at him with a smile until he had eaten everything, and then I smiled, "Now you got what you wanted." So can I get what I want? ”

The man wiped his mouth, greedily sucked the grease stains off his hands, not caring for the stains on his own hands, and then said with some determination: "Say whatever you want." Even if you want my life, it's okay, I'm a full ghost anyway. ”

I smiled and shook my head, "I don't have to waste food for a dying man, even though we have plenty of food. But I still don't want to waste it, I promise you'll live well, all I want is some news, news inside you people. "I looked at the man in front of me sincerely, trying to make him believe in my sincerity as much as possible.

"Okay" He looked at me, seemed to be sure that I was telling the truth, and then nodded and said ruthlessly: "If you want to know anything, just ask, anyway, I also offended Ouyang Lizhi, I will tell you anything you want to know." ”

"Very good, let me introduce myself first, my name is Wu Fei, I am the person in charge of this dam, what is your name? What did you do before? I asked with a smile, it seems that even if he didn't really join us, he had to cooperate with us because of his fear of Ouyang Lizhi.

"My name is Bai Zhicheng, and I used to ...... I'm in business. Bai Zhicheng replied.

"Do you still have relatives now?" I then asked.

"It's gone, it's all dead." Bai Zhicheng's tone was very calm when he spoke, it seemed that he had completely accepted his fate, it should be said that as long as the people who are still alive now have accepted their fate, otherwise no one can live in the pain of missing their relatives.

"I'm the same, we're all a bunch of poor people struggling to survive in troubled times." I stood up and took out a cigarette, walked to Yu Bai Zhicheng and handed him one, Bai Zhicheng looked at the cigarette I handed over, and was a little hesitant at first, but finally took it, I helped him light the cigarette, and also lit one for myself.

Otherwise, how to say that cigarettes and alcohol are catalysts for enhancing friendship between men, after taking a puff of cigarettes, Bai Zhicheng was obviously relaxed, and I returned to my seat and asked, "Weishenme, you people support Ouyang Lizhi so much?" Even when we saw that Yang Feng's father and daughter were treated well, no one chose to join us. ”

Bai Zhicheng was savoring the pleasure brought by cigarettes, and although he was a little caught off guard by my sudden question, he quickly sorted out his thoughts and said: "No one will have the same heart as that guy, he doesn't treat us people as human beings at all, the reason why he has insisted on following him is because he told us that no one will like a betrayer, and the sooner the betrayal, the less attention will be paid to it, and the people who take refuge in you in the early stage are likely to be used as cannon fodder in the future." And you took the children away, which means that you won't kill all of us people, this is just a test for your newcomers, just like picking special forces on TV, the more people who stay in zuihou, the more attention is paid to them, so everyone insists on it, I just can't hold on anymore, so I ......" Speaking of zuihou Yu Xingang's voice became smaller and smaller, and his expression dimmed, as if he was worried about his future "cannon fodder" career.

"Hell!" I couldn't help but pat my head and lament, I didn't expect that I was put on the side by the TV series, I got up and patted Bai Zhicheng on the shoulder and said, "Brother." You've been fooled......"

"You're going to use me as cannon fodder! Please, I really can't stand it, please don't let me be cannon fodder, I don't want to die! Before I finished speaking, Bai Zhicheng knelt on the ground and hugged my legs and cried, this guy was completely fooled by Ouyang Lizhi.

I looked at Bai Zhicheng a little helplessly, pulled him up and said, "I mean, you fell for Ouyang Lizhi, I didn't intend to test you, I tortured you because I wanted you to betray him if you couldn't bear the pressure." So that Ouyang Lizhi can taste the feeling of betrayal and separation, but I didn't expect him to deceive you by pushing the boat. ”

"What!" Bai Zhicheng was stunned with snot and tears on his face, and muttered incredulously: "This is not a test? ”

"Of course not!" I nodded affirmatively and said, "I'm not going to test anyone, you're all fooled." ”

Bai Zhicheng sat on the chair dejectedly and said with a wry smile: "Ouyang Lizhi played a game of eating crabs with us, the first person to eat crabs may taste incomparably delicious, or they may be poisoned, but because of this half of the chance of being poisoned, no one dares to be the first to eat, so we are all struggling." Ouyang Lizhi used the easiest way to trick all of us, if I were you, I would kill him, and keeping this person would definitely kill you. ”

"I'm not going to kill any of you, if I did, I'd have killed you. Okay, now tell your companions what you know, I want to end this boring game sooner too. I patted Bai Zhicheng on the shoulder and asked him to take him out.

"By the way, can you tell me. weishenme, would you have such a big grudge against Ouyang Lizhi? "When Bai Zhicheng was about to go out of the door, I asked coldly, this is a little trick that Rocky taught me, throwing out a key question when the other party thought he had passed. This can catch the person being asked off guard and make it easy to reveal flaws.

Sure enough, Bai Zhicheng was stunned by my question, but he didn't show panic or other emotions, just said very plainly: "My most haode friend was killed by him because he didn't obey his orders, so since I don't want to be good, weishenme won't retaliate against him?" ”

After listening to Bai Zhicheng's answer, I nodded, signaling that he could leave, and when Bai Zhicheng was taken away, Rocky and Guo Jiaming walked out of a compartment, I turned around and asked Guo Jiaming: "Old Guo, is what this person said true?" ”

Guo Jiaming frowned and hesitated, but still nodded and said, "I can't see that he is lying, especially when you ask him, his psychological fluctuations are very stable, and there is no abnormality in the slightest." ”

After listening to Guo Jiaming's words, I glanced at Rocky, who nodded after a little thought and said, "Let's end this farce first, it's not interesting to spend it like this." ”

"Yes, if it goes on like this, it can only make Ouyang Lizhi snicker, end this farce first, and talk about it later, by the way, Meng Hu's attitude is like this? I think he seems to be determined to follow Ouyang all the way. "I agree with Rocky's idea, but I still want to confirm Meng Hu's attitude, after all, this person is what we want to fight for the most.

"Lao Meng, you don't have to worry about him, I talked to him, because Ouyang Lizhi saved him once, so he didn't want to turn his back on him like this, but if Ouyang Lizhi was willing to give in, he would throw himself into us." Lodge said confidently.

"That's good, this old friend of yours is a rare talent, it would be a pity if he followed Ouyang Lizhi with all his heart." I said.

Rocky shook his head noncommittally and said: "He will make the right choice, but I am very worried about Ouyang Lizhi, he is so smart that he can't hide anything from him, and his ability to adapt is also super strong, if we accept him, it will probably be a trouble." ”

"What then? Do you want to get rid of him now? Guo Jiaming said: "We are not bandits after all, I think it is better to keep him first, if you find out that he has any bad intentions in the future, it will not be too late to do it, and in that case, we will also be famous, and some people in the province will gossip." ”

"I think it's just what Lao Guo wants, Ouyang Lizhi is determined to live or die in the future, it's up to him to choose, let's solve this little in front of us first." With that, I pushed the door open and walked out.

When we came to the dam, it was already a mess, after Bai Zhicheng was brought back, he repeated my words without saying a word, and the people who found that they had been deceived broke out instantly, and they gathered together to beat Ouyang Lizhi violently, even Meng Hu couldn't stop it, and when we were now, Wang Tao had just led people to separate Ouyang Lizhi from those people.

I walked up to Ouyang Lizhi, who had a blue nose and swollen face, and smiled at him, "How is it?" It doesn't taste good to have a lie exposed, right? ”

Although he was beaten very badly, Ouyang Lizhi didn't care at all, he stroked his messy hair and said, "It's just that these guys are too stupid, if you persist for a while, I think you will also be very uncomfortable, right?" We're going to get better treatment when the time comes, aren't we? ”

I didn't refute his words, but just looked at the crowd who still couldn't calm their anger and said: "You are indeed very powerful, but this does not mean how great a person you are, but because of your evolved ability, you have far beyond ordinary people's logical analysis ability, but any ability has weaknesses, your weakness is that you can only analyze things, but you can't analyze people, so you are doomed to failure." ”

Ouyang Lizhi didn't have any special reaction when he heard my words, but said lightly: "I know very well that people's hearts are changeable, but I know even more that people's hearts can be induced, as long as the method is done properly, people's hearts can change at any time." ”

"You are right, as long as the method is right, people's hearts can be changed, but I believe that everyone has a kind of persistence in their hearts that cannot be changed, and this is the biggest difference between you and me." I smiled and patted Ouyang Lizhi's shoulder.

I stood up and shouted to Wang Tao, who was maintaining order: "Wang Tao, clean up these people, arrange their food and lodging, and tomorrow we will break them up and assign them to the teams, and if anyone wants to leave, let them get out of now." ”

"Got it!" Wang Tao agreed, turned back to the captives and shouted: "Your hard days are over, now the men and women are lined up, take you to the bath first, and then give you a meal haode, if anyone wants to get out of now, they will be out immediately!" (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for reading this book again, to be honest, it is very difficult to write in the first person, and all the plots must be experienced by the protagonist himself, so the side plot cannot be developed at all. There were a few times when I even wanted to switch to third-person mode, but after thinking about it, I stuck with it. I'm really grateful to the friends who can keep reading it, this book is my first work, and it's also a subject that I'm interested in, so it's relatively unpopular. And because I have no experience before, the development of the plot and the writing technique are relatively rusty and naïve, I hope you can criticize and correct more.

Thank you so much again!!
