Mu Tang was dragged by Ah Yun and Xiao Man and walked towards the place where he lived.

There were some dilapidated houses around, but more of them were crowded tents, and some tent curtains were open, and Mu Tang could see what was inside.

Each tent was densely packed with messy things, some of the bedding was spread directly on the ground, and many of them were army green, which looked like they were issued by the army.

None of the people in these tents were less than five.

Most of them sat in or outside the tent, their eyes dim and dazed, looking bored and numb.

But there are also a few people who are still doing things on their hands.

Not far away in a tent was a young woman weaving something, and on closer inspection, some torn strips of cloth were joined together and then woven into something else.

Judging by where she had already knitted, it should have been a mat.

When they pass by these people, these people will stare at them with a more or less obscure gaze, and the exploration and thinking inside are not very comfortable.

It was the first time she had set foot here, and the scene in front of her made her a little distracted, and she suddenly remembered what Lu Yan had said casually when she chatted with her two days ago.

The location of the base was not much, and the survivors inside were divided into two parts, one was to flee by themselves, and the other was to be taken over by the army.

The area of the Tongcheng base is much smaller than that of the Tomorrow base, only half of it, but the current population is much larger than the Tomorrow base.

Although the army has tried its best to reduce the living space, it can only barely give these people a place to stay.

There is no way, no matter how impossible it is to ban the army, this is the only guarantee for the survival of these defenseless people.

Although there have been appeals from civilians for a long time, wanting the army to be reduced to pieces and maintaining the same living conditions for them, and distributing weapons to them, and teaching them how to use them.

The man said eloquently: "Country M is that firearms are legal, and their civilians have the ability to protect themselves!" We don't want to be fish on sticky boards anymore, if you really think about the people, you should!! ”

This sentence obviously poked at the careful thinking of many people and resonated with many people.

Some of these people really want to protect themselves, but there are also people who have bad thoughts in their hearts.

The legalization of firearms, giving civilians more self-preservation, also means exposing the base to the threat of violence.

If someone wants to rebel, the base's barely balanced balance can be easily upset, and the consequences will be immeasurable.

Therefore, of course, it is impossible for Lieutenant General Lu to agree with such an idea.

The man jumped up at that time, and the army just wanted to keep them in captivity as livestock, and he didn't treat them as human beings at all!

This was to break ground on the credibility of the leaders of the base, inciting the people's feelings of resistance, and rumors spread in the base for a while.

The usually generous lieutenant general was also rarely tough, and had a gun shoved into the man's arms, taught him how to shoot, and sent him out of the base.

Of course, there may as well be someone who adds to the fire, such as Major General Li.

Originally, Lieutenant General Lu just asked people to drive him out, and the area around the base was swept by the army several times, and there were not as many zombies as in other places, so he would not die immediately.

However, Major General Li seemed to obviously want to take this opportunity to solve the matter at once, so he directly and secretly sent the person outside the warning range of the base.

In the end, the man was so frightened that he collapsed, and finally lay on his stomach outside the army defense line with a handful of snot and tears to apologize, begging him to go back.

This incident made those in the base who swore frankly and thought that they could live with a gun hesitated, and the timid ones were even more silent, and the matter was finally closed.

"I have to say that Major General Li's choice is very correct, but if he changes someone, it is very likely that such an effect will not be achieved." Lu Yan summed up this matter.

"What do you mean?" Mu Tang didn't understand very well.

"That person came to the base early in the end of the world, and was sheltered by the base very early. In other words, it is quite possible that he has not even faced zombies at all. ”

Lu Yan paused, and then said:

"Coupled with his arrogant temperament, he just kept inciting others, but he didn't really dare to negotiate with the army. Major General Li expected that this person was a soft-footed worm with only an empty shell, and as long as he was allowed to see those things outside, he probably didn't even have the courage to shoot. ”

Mu Tang once again saw the diversity of human nature, it turned out that there were really people who would use these things to achieve the results they wanted.

Lu Yan touched her head:

"As long as this person only entered the base in the middle of the last days, Major General Li should not choose to do this, because people who can survive to that time outside will not even have the courage to protect themselves."

Mu Tang felt that Lu Yan actually had some things that he hadn't said explicitly.

That is, when a person is cornered, it will explode, and the reason why that person easily disarms and surrenders and turns around and begs for mercy.

Probably because he was not cornered at all, because there was a base.

When he realized that life outside might not be better than the base, he immediately bent his backbone and chose the base where someone worked hard for him, rather than using his life to win the so-called freedom.

Although this matter was just Lu Yan's casual remark, it had a big impact on Mu Tang.

Humans are really strange creatures, they can always think of something more than one thing, and then choose the outcome that is most beneficial to them.

If it were herself, she probably wouldn't have thought about it that much.

Mu Tang was distracted, but the sleeves of his shirt were suddenly pulled, and he lowered his head and found that Ah Yun was looking at her a little unhappily.

"I just told you so much, and you didn't answer me a whole sentence." The child's face was a little aggrieved.

He looked to be seven or eight years old, the baby fat on his face was almost gone, his whole face was tanned, his clothes and pants were obviously inappropriate, and his wrists and ankles were exposed.

Xiao Man on the side looked like he was only four or five years old, also wearing dirty and ill-fitting clothes, with a thin face, in addition to the innocence of a child, there was a trace of depression that did not fit his age.

Mu Tang suddenly remembered the conversation between the two children just now.

The big one was already able to joke with his own death, and although the small one felt frightened and said "I don't want to die" with red eyes, he also faced the loss of life.

I don't know why, Mu Tang always feels that this shouldn't be something that children need to understand.

The woman in front kept looking back at them, and there was a faint worry under her bland.

They've earned a lot of attention along the way.

Mu Tang is really eye-catching, beautiful, neatly dressed, placed in this messy living space, like a fresh cake smeared with cream and chocolate falling into the garbage heap.

Abrupt and eye-catching, it can arouse the covetousness of mice.

A trace of worry crossed the woman's eyes, and then she took the initiative to turn around and pull Mu Tang and speed up her pace.

She didn't know if she should bring this girl over, she just wanted her poor child to have something happy in this dark hell.

But if the price comes to involve irrelevant people, then she'd rather not.

But even if she thought so in her heart, the woman's eyes unconsciously drifted towards Mu Tang.

For those who don't have to worry about food and clothing in the last days, the crumbs that emerge from the fingers of this little girl should be what they want but can't ask for.

I don't ask for much, even if it's just a little bit for my children......

The woman's eyes fell on the two children who were pulling Mu Tang forward, from the end of the world to the present, even if it was just to give the child two more bites of meat, it was already a luxury.

The woman silently pulled Mu Tang to a small tent, and there were a few suppressed coughs in the room, and then the door curtain was lifted.

Looking at the people who came out of it, Mu Tang's eyes widened in surprise.
