Chapter 37: Good and Evil
The students looked at the corpse on the ground and the axe in Lin Zifeng's hand, looking incredulous, as if they were saying that it was just for some food, is it worth it? They suddenly felt as if they didn't know these people, and they thought they were empathetic, and even full of sympathy for them, but now everyone's hearts began to heavily.
This is not the outcome they want to see.
"Why?" This is what Zhang Yulong wanted to ask, he looked at the few men who stopped fighting for food not far away, the blood of the corpses on the ground was still flowing, and there was no other sound in the air for a while. It seemed that you could hear the blood flowing and Lin Zifeng laughing inexplicably.
But after he heard Lin Zifeng's words just now, he suddenly didn't want to ask anymore. The group fell silent like this, they all knew that the man had protected them again, and they didn't even dare to think about what would have happened if everyone rushed up just now? The people around everyone seemed to be a little different from the people they had seen before, and Zhang Yulong even had the illusion that a group of zombies who were looking forward to tearing flesh and blood from them surrounded him.
Everyone's hands unconsciously hold the weapons in their hands, there are so many people here, a hundred? Two hundred? Or maybe it's three hundred? Only a small number of people gathered around, and many more seemed to be coming out of the corner, like rats in the sewers, dirty, cautious, with lust and morality in their eyes. Maybe a few days ago they were citizens who had fled, with their own jobs and families, but now the pressure of survival has put everyone on the verge of collapse.
The man who had just stood up to speak suddenly became dumbfounded, and his face became extremely ugly when he looked at the corpse on the ground, obviously he told him not to act rashly, and to act after hearing his instructions, why did he do such a thing without authorization? Now it's okay, let's put my life on the line, so that the negotiations that were originally prepared will break down in an instant. "I'm ......" he opened his mouth, as if to say something, when the young man in front of him suddenly leaned forward.
His voice was blocked in his throat like this, his facial features began to twitch, and his eyes the size of mung beans were full of disbelief, so he heard the man leaning on him say softly: "He's your friend, right?" Or brother? It doesn't matter anymore, because you're threatening me and trying to kill me. The diminutive middle-aged man tried to raise his hand, as if to explain something, but his voice kept in his throat and made a "uh-uh-uh" sound.
Bright red blood trickled from the tip of the knife that pierced his body onto the smooth floor tiles, like unscrewed faucets. Lin Zifeng leaned on him tightly like this, because of his height, at first glance, it looked like a tall brother hugging his short brother, lowering his head slightly, and his mouth was close to the middle-aged man's ear: "Anyway, I have already killed one, what if I kill another one?" I just don't think you two are good people, do you? ”
Like a balloon that has been punctured, the viciousness in the eyes of the middle-aged man who was originally strong began to slowly dissipate and became hollow, looking up at the white and somewhat dazzling ceiling, he only felt that his body seemed to have broken a hole, and life was passing rapidly from that hole. "Poof" Lin Zifeng let go of the hand holding him, like a rag doll that had been dropped, and the man whose consciousness had gradually dissipated fell to the ground.
The blood flowed and spread in all directions, and this was the flower that bloomed in the last days.
"You, how dare you kill!" A tall, thin man with glasses fell to the ground in panic, his trembling fingers pointing in the direction of Lin Zifeng. The two corpses on the ground seemed to be giving off some kind of warning, and the crowd that had been around them suddenly dispersed, mixed with the screams of unknown people, like a flock of crows that had been dispersed. In the face of death, reason once again overwhelmed the madness brought about by hunger, and in the blink of an eye, only a few people remained in the impenetrable crowd.
Fear made their legs, already weak from hunger, even more weak, but the backpacks on their bodies seemed to exude some kind of magical power, prompting them to stay behind. Maybe the man will be kind? We didn't provoke him, so it shouldn't be any to us, right? If only I could get a little bit of food. They are scared and hopeful, all just to live.
Lin Zifeng stared at the two corpses that fell to the ground, the smell of blood spread in the air, and a cluster of flames suddenly ignited in Luo Bing's pupils on the side, and her scarlet tongue licked her lips slightly, she was even a little surprised by her thoughts, whether it was a person or a zombie, it didn't seem to make much difference in her heart at this time. But this special smell that could reach the end of her nose made her feel dizzy, and the muscles on her body began to tremble excitedly.
"What's wrong? Don't blame yourself, why don't you stand there and chop someone with an axe? I don't think they look like good people when they look crooked and cracked! "Maybe it's because I've seen too many dead people along the way, and I've killed a lot of zombies, but the two corpses in front of me don't seem to cause much discomfort to everyone, as if they've long been used to this kind of picture. After figuring out the reason for Lin Zifeng's killing, the dissatisfaction and doubts in their hearts gradually disappeared.
He shook his head slightly, just silently looked at the two people who fell to the ground, only to feel a strong sadness welling up from the bottom of his heart. Lin Zifeng never felt that he was a good person, but sometimes when he saw someone in need, he would try his best to help, after all, there was no harm to himself, and it was nothing to do. But he never wanted to hurt others, even if everything seemed to change overnight, he still felt like he was the same as before.
He saved Jiang Hanyu and saved a teacher and student, and now he finally came to the evacuation point he had been looking forward to for a long time, only to find that it was not what he thought. Hundreds of people were blocked in the building by more than a dozen zombies surrounding the doorway, they had so many strong men, and even many weapons that were far better than their own. But why, why would they rather swing an axe at themselves than deal with those sluggish zombies!
I killed someone.
Lin Zifeng felt that his heart was pressed by something, and he couldn't breathe, and even his breathing began to be short.
But they tried to kill me.
Something began to sprout in his heart, and gradually the feeling of pressure in his chest began to disappear, and his somewhat confused eyes became firm again.
So they deserve to die.
His breathing began to calm down, and he slowly walked in front of the two corpses, his calm and indifferent gaze seemed to be looking at the two dead wild dogs, and even a little more disgusted.
Lin Zifeng suddenly turned his head, and the few people around him hurriedly took a few steps back and said, "So, what are you doing here?" I saw a man with a scruffy beard hesitate for a moment, and pulled out a little girl who was cowering from behind, "This, this big brother, I don't care, but, maybe I can't give my daughter something to eat?" You can tell me to do anything! I listen to you! ”
Seeing that Brother Feng nodded slightly towards him, Zhang Yulong seemed to understand something, and the thing that had just fallen to the ground had not been taken back, and hurriedly beckoned to the few people around, "What are you looking at?" Come and eat! I've got to feed you! No, this is for you, little friend! He reached out and picked up a bag of toffee and threw it to the bearded man. Thank you! Thank you! You guys are so nice people! The bearded man bent over and nodded towards Zhang Yulong with a flattering face, and quickly opened a piece of toffee and stuffed it into his daughter's mouth.
Zhang Yulong looked at these people in front of him who were gobbling up dust everywhere and their faces were gray and white, as if they hadn't eaten for a few days, they didn't even have time to take a sip of water, and from time to time someone was choked because the food was too dry, and his face was red and he took the water bottle he handed over. Suddenly, I thought of what the bearded man said just now, and couldn't help but look back at Lin Zifeng, who was quietly talking to the woman in front of the mother and son, and some of the mustard that had just been produced suddenly disappeared.
What about the good guys, what about the bad guys, in the end, everyone just wants to live. He looked at the two corpses on the ground not far away and sighed slightly.
Where is there any good or evil in this world now?
