Chapter Ninety-Three: Survive!

Next, the guards let out a long sigh and had to warm up with their sore arms.

Like the group of refugees who arrived before Bruce, they ignored the guards around them, ignoring their presence, not thinking about why there were elite soldiers stationed here, but running straight to the food rack behind them!

"Thisβ€”" Bruce tried to open his mouth to remind them, but remembered what the soldier beside him had just said...

If you say the wrong word, even if you say the wrong word, you will end up with the same group of corpses, thrown into the furnace and burned to soot.

So, he just shook his head indifferently, gave up the heart of the Virgin, silently turned his head and squatted down, stretched out his index finger to plug his ears, and didn't care about what happened next.

The shouts of killing came again, and Bruce silently said to himself, 'Hallelujah, God forbid!' I hope that the unreliable God will forgive his inaction and cowardice.

But even if Bruce blocked his ears, it was difficult to hide the shouts and help... The screeching sound of the sword coming out of its sheath pierced through the fingers blocking his ears and directly into his nerves.

"Poof!"

As the sword was pulled from the heart, blood gushed on the gravel floor, splashing right on Bruce's face.

"Ahh With a bang, Bruce took two steps back in succession, and he opened his eyes to find that the person who had just been alive, the person who had just seen hope, was dead like this...

But... Along the way, he had seen a lot of dead bodies, and even seen human meat steaks that had been marinated by cannibals, and the scenes he saw now could no longer scare him into quadriplegics.

It's just that he has never been so close to a fresh and hot corpse.

"Oh my God!" Bruce let go of his ears and slowly stood up, looking around at the mess on the ground.

I don't know if my heart has become stronger, or if I have become numb to the dead.

When Bruce saw the hot corpse, he didn't feel scared anymore, not even the slightest fear...

Dead bodies one after another, like wild dogs on the side of the road, couldn't make a little ripple in Bruce's heart.

He wanted to cry out loud, but he couldn't brew a trace of emotion, and even wanted to laugh a little, laughing at these people for not being as lucky as himself, and not following the order...

He stared at the dead body for a long time, and finally Bruce coldly squeezed out a sentence: "A bunch of idiots..."

When he said this, even he didn't realize that he would say it so ruthlessly.

But this sentence, in the eyes of the soldiers around him, is something similar to 'casting a name' or something.

Only by removing one's identity as a disaster victim can one join Blackwater City to get work and pay.

The soldiers yawned, glanced up at the time, turned to Bruce and said, "Little smash, it's not early today, rush back to the city, and the recorder is off work..."

"You... Just stay in the village with us, and go to Blackwater City tomorrow, as long as you pass the written exam, you can get a good job, not only for wages, but also for food! There is also a subsidy of three tomatoes per day! ”

After saying this, the soldier raised his hand and motioned to the militiamen around him, ordering them to immediately clean up the mess at the scene and wait for the next wave of refugees.

Since you can't leave today, why don't you do something! It doesn't seem reasonable to stay here and be stunned, so...

Bruce raised his head and looked at the heavily armored soldier in front of him sincerely, adhering to the principle that acting is to play a full set, since he has chosen the identity of a 'well-behaved refugee', he can't have his own opinions.

"That's... Master Jun, what should I do now? I mean... I should listen to your instructions, and I will do whatever you want me to do! ”

If you find clues, you'll be done playing, and since you're lucky enough to survive, you'll at least have to pass this level!

The soldier in front of him didn't notice anything wrong, he didn't care about anything else, as long as the refugees passed his own level, they wouldn't be killed.

But... This refugee named Bruce said so sincerely, patted the horse very comfortably, and called "military master" one by one, which happened to hit his cool point, and he was a little embarrassed if he didn't answer.

But for now, there's not much work to be done here...

After thinking about it, he noticed the militia who was picking up the corpses: "Uh... So, then you go for a meal and then clean up the corpses with the militia, how about it? ”

At the moment, Bruce had no choice, so he grinned with all his might, as if he had received some reward, and responded with a smile: "Master Xie!" I'm going to eat and I'm going to work with everyone! ”

Now! The crisis is temporarily lifted, and Bruce can finally eat a normal meal!

During this time, since his sister died, he hadn't eaten serious food, and the only thing that looked serious was snake meat with dough cakes.

"Go ahead... Eh, wait a minute! The soldier wiped his weapon from his hand, put it back in its scabbard, took a tomato from his pocket, and placed it in Bruce's hand.

"Do you love tomatoes?"

This is the territory of the Tomato Baron, and those who don't like to eat tomatoes will hardly end well, besides... The tomato was not unpalatable, so Bruce bowed deeply and thanked him, raised the tomato in his hand and said happily: "Of course, Master Jun!" It's one of my favorite foods, not one of them! ”

"Go ahead, I guess the next wave will have to wait a long time!"

"Understood!"

In order not to make the soldiers and the surrounding militia suspicious of his actions, he did not go far, but sat on a stone bench not far away, watching and eating.

Even if there is a stove next to him that burns the bodies of refugees, he doesn't mind at all.

More than this, he cares more about tomorrow's written exam, Bruce doesn't know a few words at all except for being able to write his own name...

The only thing I know and can write is: "My name is Bruce, I like farming, I want to be a farmer!" "The three shortest sentences...

"Whatever, let's eat enough today! Anyway, I'm an 'orderly' person, even if I can't read, I can go to work as a coolie! You can eat a meal without a salary! ”

...

Sitting on the stone bench, Bruce opened the supply bag, and the fragrance was almost instantaneously infused into his nostrils, and when he came back to his senses, he opened his eyes and probed inside the bag...

There weren't many types of food in the bag, but there was plenty of bread and bacon, and something that would last a little longer.

In months, he hadn't eaten serious meat at all, and now... There were actually two pieces of bacon in the bag! However, I can't laugh at the thought that these things are worth 10 silver coins!

Ten silver coins in Bruce's hometown, not only can you marry a daughter-in-law, but you can also go to the church's 'Purification and Redemption Hall' to save at least 10 women who have been bent down by evil spirits!

Although Bruce had never been there himself, he could hear his father talk to others about it and the beauty of it.

It is said that as long as you are pious and respect God, punish the devil in His name! Not only can you liberate your body, but you can also sublimate your soul.

When you close your eyes, you can feel the halo of God! Especially at the moment when you eliminate demons! Although it is only a few seconds, it will be unforgettable for all those who believe in God!

Bruce's father once closed his eyes and recalled, "It felt like you were one step closer to God!" When you seal the soul of the demon in a silver coin, you are God's enforcer, and you will solve his problems! ”

Remembering this, Bruce put his right hand on his heart and prayed before eating...

"I really want to go to the 'Hall of Purification and Atonement'! If I have the chance, I must go there and do a helping hand for God! Save a few demon-possessed girls! ”

Of course, young Bruce didn't know what it was, and his father was just a noble way of saying it for his own selfish desires.

"Ahh A bite of bacon, Bruce burst into tears, and then a bite of tomatoes! A few hot tears ran through the corners of his eyes.

What the life and death of refugees, the life and death of others, now does not matter, Our Lady will not let herself fill her belly, but the bread and bacon in front of you will!

So the tears shed are also to thank these foods, and the God who does not often manifest spirits...

There's nothing better than being alive! This fresh tomato, with such chewy bacon, Bruce's body is completely awakened!

I don't know if it's a hallucination, he feels that his body is full of power! He can even tear a cow with his bare hands.

After a few bites of bacon, Bruce swallowed the remaining tomatoes in one bite, finally picked up the bread and took a big bite!

"It smells so good!"

The bread in my hand was even a little warm, the hot air penetrated into my lungs, and the sweet and soft taste was enough to make me forget everything!

...

Half an hour later, after Bruce finished eating, he and the militia at the head of the village, lurked on both sides of the road, waiting for the soldiers' orders, and then went out to clean up the corpses in time.

There were no refugees now, so the militiamen lurking in the grass looked at Bruce in front of them and asked, "Eh, Xiaoxiao, where are you from?" ”

If you are any other person, you will be curious about such a qualified refugee who has survived, and of course they will ask him about his specific situation.

"Back to you, I came from xx village, and I originally fled with my family, but I didn't think about it, only I survived..."

The militiamen, who were not worried about food and clothing, subconsciously put their right hands on their hearts and sighed after hearing that Bruce's family was all dead: "Then your family must have prayed to God in heaven to let you live!" ”

This scene seems so ironic in Bruce's eyes, the dead refugees are not sad, but sad about their own experience...

However, this can also be figured out, after all, according to Baron Tomato's idea, those refugees who fail the assessment are not human beings at all, and they will die when they die.

And Bruce is not qualified to say that, just now, he said such a vicious thing... So since you have survived, there is no need to build a stinky and hard archway for yourself.

With gratitude, Bruce praised God and the dead family according to the reaction of the militia: "Yes, if it weren't for God's guidance, I might have been thrown into the furnace and burned to death, just like other unruly refugees..."

At the sound of 'God's guidance,' the militiamen's eyes widened, and one of them even began to pray as a congregation.

This is true, so thank God for your guidance and your parents' prayers! They kept you alive..."

Hearing this, Bruce's brain was a little insufficient... He didn't know why the militia thought that, because along the way, it was all his luck and decisive decisions.

If it is said that God favors him and makes his luck higher, where does the decisive decision come from? Could it be from the teachings of parents?

Bruce touched his chin and nodded, it seemed to make sense to think so!

"Yes! When I have earned enough money, I will definitely go to the church, light the most expensive candle for them, thank God, and ask the priest to do the most expensive set of prayers! Let them be in heaven and enjoy life! ”

These few words obviously touched the emotional nerves of the militiamen, and the people who survived in front of them actually received God's guidance, so everyone present also had to have a good relationship with Bruce, rub the breath of God, and bring them to their families!

"Not bad! Very energetic! Very ambitious! If you touch the coin in a while, I will definitely give you a little! ”

"Brother Xie!" Bruce didn't understand their actions, but he was now clear that there was going to be money to be made! Although I still have a lot of coins in my backpack.

But who would be too little for money?

...

While chatting, a donkey cart drove not far away.

The donkey was already overwhelmed, but with its strength and perseverance, it was still pulling a cart at a constant speed.

When the car stopped, a well-dressed man, supported by two thin, heavily armed guards, got out of the donkey cart...

Immediately afterwards, there was a woman, and a young man.

When the well-dressed man came to the guards, he took out a cross, thanked God, and then took up a Bible and blessed the soldier in front of him.

After this process, he took out a gold coin and placed it in the soldier's hand...

"This..."

The soldier shook his head, but did not accept the coins, in his cognition, only the money that the church came to buy food could be collected, and the rest of the money was resolutely not acceptable! Especially if you accept the money from the priest, you won't be able to enter heaven after you die!

After some ideological struggle, although one gold coin was a lot, he still held back: "Father, we can't take your money..."

The priest shook his head and slipped the coin into the soldier's pocket: "Please accept this money, this is the cost of buying some supplies, we haven't eaten for a long time..."

Soldiers kill so many people every day, and if they take more money from the priest, it will be too much! "It's... Father, how about this one, count me as a treat, and use this money as a confession fee for me and my companions? ”

"It's... It's good... Then I'm sorry for you! ”

People of faith must be more orderly than ordinary people at all times, regardless of whether this faith is reliable or not, at least they will not eat human flesh.

With the blessing of faith, the feeling of 'superiority' will be a clear stream in danger, even if they are desperate and about to die on the streets, the pride in their hearts will not allow them to become scum.
