Chapter 116: Holding on to this raging fire, burning away the black fog in the world
The suddenness and violence of Kavin's movement startled Sanji, who was munching on dry food on the side.
On the contrary, Li Heng didn't raise his head, still checking the few cans of life.
Rukavin, who was kneeling on the ground, also did not move, and Sanji, who was choking on dry food, did not understand the situation and did not dare to move, and the scene was quiet and strange for a while.
It wasn't until half a minute later that Li Heng turned around and replied softly: "I hate others kneeling"
Hearing this, Ru Kavin's body shook on the ground, and then slowly got up from the ground.
Li Heng looked at him, didn't look down, just looked at him calmly: "People in this world are responsible for their own choices, do you understand?" ”
Ru Kawen was stunned for a moment, as if he understood the meaning of Li Heng's words, and then nodded firmly.
Li Heng smiled and shook his head and said, "You can't afford this responsibility, and now you don't even have the qualifications to say that you are responsible."
He was speechless: "I ......"
But even so, Li Heng interrupted him and continued to ask, "Besides, what do you use as capital to ask me for help?" Or do you think that I am a saint who has not seen the suffering of the world, and will definitely lend a hand? ”
He immediately shook his head nervously and replied, "No, no...... I don't have such naïve and stupid thoughts. ”
"But I really can't give any guarantees now, and I know that my request is ridiculous and presumptuous, and we really can't give you any reward or wealth now, after all, we can't even sustain ourselves."
He said with a wry smile.
"I just...... It's just that I have such an illusion, I just think that with your strength and wisdom if you can help, maybe we still have a glimmer of hope, if...... I mean, if we can do anything in the future to overthrow the Darcy family and restore President Hondor's ideals, then I will do everything I can to meet your needs."
Li Heng lowered his eyes and said lightly: "You mean to let me be a 'venture capital'?" Will I help you get my 'investment' and 'dividends' back after you have done it? ”
For example, Kavin's face was embarrassed, and Li Heng's words were very naked, but he still replied stubbornly: "Poor...... Almost"
But Li Heng smiled, neither denied nor affirmed, but said, "What if my goal is to become the next Darcy?" ”
For example, Kavin was stunned and stayed where he was, not thinking of how to answer for a while.
"So I said, the subconscious basis of your decision is still the fantasy that I am a 'saint'"
"People who make such assumptions and fantasies are extremely immature and risky, and such entrepreneurs are generally not favored by investors."
After Li Heng threw down this sentence, he ignored him and continued to tinker with those few things.
For example, Kavin was a little anxious, and when he saw that Li Heng no longer paid attention to him, his expression was gloomy and lost, but he still didn't seem to give up.
In an almost earnest tone, he tried again, "Sir...... Could you please go out for a walk with me? ”
"Will you go out with me and make a decision......?"
Li Heng raised his head to look at him, and muttered for a while before walking out of the doorway of the ruins: "Let's go"
Rukavin immediately stepped forward to lead him the way, leading him through the ruins and garbage heaps, as well as the sewage ditches to the center of Kathu.
It is said that it is the center of the town, but in fact, there are more people living here, the dilapidated and old asbestos tile sheds are built without any rules and regulations, and the road isolated by various debris and garbage piles is the "block" of the town, and the few buildings that can be regarded as private houses are also crowded with people like ovens stuffed with bread.
Intertwined lanyards hung from the roof, clothes that had been washed many times and even the dyes had completely fallen off were hung to dry, and sewage flowed from below from time to time.
This kind of village and town built out of thin air from a wasteland garbage dump cannot have any underground drainage system, and the cross-flowing sewage carries a foul smell and also attracts all kinds of tropical insects.
Following Ru Kawen, Li Heng walked into a low small house made of stone bricks, Li Heng took a brief look and found that the house did not use cement at all, it was purely made of soil as a binder, and there was no safety factor at all.
There was a bed in the hut, and a small figure lay on it, and when he heard the movement, he looked up from the bed, and cried out in surprise: "Uncle! You're here......"
She was so excited that she looked like she wanted to get out of bed to greet Ru Kavin, but she couldn't.
Because she doesn't have feet.
Ru Kavin smiled and greeted her to stop moving, then took out what appeared to be a rice ball from his arms and handed it to her.
The puffy and gray girl was overjoyed, and she brushed away her messy hair with her dirty hands, revealing large, bright eyes, the only thing on her body that still shone with their brilliance.
"Thank you, uncle...... Hmm"
Gulping down on the rice balls, laughing while eating, he said, "It's been a long time...... Not...... It's been a long time since I've been here, and I thought you weren't coming to see me......"
Ru Kavin touched her hair and smiled: "Uncle is very busy, he has to do a lot of things every day, but I will definitely come to see Gina often"
"Uh-huh!"
The girl nodded vigorously, then took a bite of the rice ball and said to him in a cheerful tone, "That's right, uncle! I feel like my feet are much better, they don't hurt much lately, will I be able to get off the ground soon......"
"Yes, you're almost ready, and when you're ready, my uncle will buy you a nice wheelchair so you can go out and play"
The little girl pouted: "I don't want to be in a wheelchair, I can walk......"
Ru Kavin just smiled and stroked her hair.
After changing her medicine again, Ru Kawen and Li Heng left the hut and let her continue to rest and recuperate.
It wasn't until after leaving here for a while that Li Heng said calmly: "Is she dying?"
Ru Kaven's body was stunned, his cheeks twitched briefly, and then nodded.
"When we found her in the ruins of the old town, her wound was already inflamed and infected."
"She was abandoned here, and she had been begged on the streets of Mai Thanh in Siam, where the gang cut off her feet to win the sympathy of foreigners who came to Mai Thanh to make money."
Mai Thanh is the third largest tourist city in Siam, with a large number of foreign tourists every day, and it is also a place with many temples and many Bodhisattva Buddhas.
"Probably because she was so infected that she was abandoned, because those people didn't intend to treat her"
Li Heng listened quietly, and nodded at the same time: "She said that she felt that her feet no longer hurt recently, in fact, it is not that the situation has improved, but that the infection has spread seriously, and the peripheral nerve necrosis no longer feels pain."
The puffy cheeks and gray face are, in another way, "dead on the edge".
Ru Kavin's throat rolled, and he paused for a long time before he spit out: "I...... Can't do anything"
Incompetence is the greatest sin.
But Li Heng was still as calm as water and indifferent as dust, and just said unceremoniously: "So, what is the purpose of bringing me to see her?" Intended to arouse my pity, or to be kidnapped by morality"
"No"
In the face of such a harsh and direct question, Ru Kavin was still not annoyed and angry, but took a deep breath and then reflexively looked back at the town behind him, his gaze sweeping over the long dilapidated street.
"He"
Point to a shed where sat a man with his mouth open and looking at the sky with a demented expression.
"When he was fishing on Princess Beach, he was knocked unconscious with a high-voltage electric speargun shot by a fishing boat of the Guke Fishing Company, and because he was suffocated for too long, his brain was deprived of oxygen, and his parents went to the fishing company to theorize, and were disposed of by the iron union on the way."
"The man"
He pointed to a middle-aged man drying rotten vegetables and fruits he had just picked up, and beside him a shirtless child licking his fingers.
"He has four children, three of whom have been missing in the past two years, and two months ago the body of a child was found in Blackwater Bay, his second daughter, who died in a very ...... manner It's hard to describe, it's the perverted play of the Kutuwasi family, and the iron workers will regularly 'feed' the young children they like, because the Kutuwasi family controls three mines, as well as a gold pan, and every year they provide a large amount of precious metals to the Lao military in exchange for support, and currying favor with them is equivalent to currying favor with an army."
"And him!" pointed to another person, such as Carvin's emotions gradually became a little suppressed and excited, "The whole family was killed by the Green River Gang, and he himself was forced to be addicted to banned drugs, and every day he was better than dead, he had to prick his hands and feet with steel needles to suppress drug addiction......"
"And him, he, she, him, them......"
As if Calvin's fingers were pointing over the people of the town, his eyes were numb, hopeless, and gray faces everywhere.
It's like a group of lambs who don't know where they come from and where they die, either waiting to be slaughtered or burying their heads in the grass, and they don't know tomorrow or future, and they are muddy and lowly.
"The world shouldn't be like this, should it? It shouldn't be! ”
For example, Kavin's voice was not loud, but there was a feeling of hoarseness.
He looked up at Li Heng, who was still as calm as an ancient well standing on the side, and there was only sincerity in his eyes.
"I just want to see them alive like a human ......"
He squatted down and began to babble like a broken thought.
"I know I'm whimsical, I can't help myself, but I just can't help but fantasize like this, I can't watch it"
"That's why I'm here to beg you, seeking this meager possibility, even if it is collateral with my life, if it can be exchanged for your help......"
"Your life is not worth anything"
Li Heng replied ruthlessly and indifferently.
Ru Kavin smiled bitterly and nodded: "Yes, but I only have this one"
Li Heng looked at him with his eyes lowered, no pity or sympathy, he couldn't see what he was thinking, and after a short pause, he turned around and left.
Hearing the footsteps fade away, as Calvin's head lowered, wrapped in endless loss and despair.
But he didn't have the strength to stand up and beg again, so he squatted on the ground for a long time in despair before he slowly got up and walked towards the dilapidated house.
"How's it going? Did he say yes?"
A companion in the room asked him.
Ru Kavin shook his head, his eyes dark.
The companion sighed, although he also guessed the general result, but it was just uncomfortable.
"That's right, it's just a strong man who met in Pingshui, there is no reason and reason, we still have to rely on ourselves after all"
His companion patted him on the shoulder, and Kaven nodded as well.
Then several people began to discuss what to do later, Li Heng's appearance was just an unexpected episode, but their struggle was far from over, and it was very difficult.
"We didn't take much of the supplies, but a lot of people died, I'm afraid we won't be able to stay here, the convoy has been robbed, Darcy must have mobilized multiple forces to hunt us down"
Walking out of the low houses, such as Caven and his companions discussing whether to leave the town, if Darcy's men came to him, I was afraid that the people here would be affected.
"Let's go tomorrow after tonight, those canned children will be left for that person, it won't be of much use to us, I think we can follow the tributaries of Blackwater Bay all the way to the Savage Mountain in Shan Biu, where there is no Darcy power, we can take a break from the limelight and think about how to develop the ......"
Boom!
A loud roar in the air interrupted his words, and he fell in disbelief amid a splash of blood.
Ru Kavin's eyes widened and he yelled: "Qinsi!! ”
One held his falling body, but it was too late, and the bullet hit him in the heart.
Bloodshot eyes looked at the dilapidated neighborhood, and not far away stood a teenager trembling with a gun in both hands, still muttering excitedly: "Hit!" I hit! I'm going to be promoted, hahaha, I can get a bonus! ”
For example, Kavin recognized him at a glance, a member of the Iron Guild, who was working for a livestock farm when he contracted some kind of epidemic disease in livestock, fell into a coma with a high fever, and was abandoned here.
It was they who brought the boy back and provided him with food and water, as well as scarce and precious medicines, to revive him.
But now he shot at his brother.
"What are you doing!!"
Like madness, Kavin rushed up and kicked the boy over, as if there was only one bullet in the pistol he had stolen, and the shot was gone.
Crushing him to the ground so fiercely, if Kavin couldn't understand it, he couldn't have imagined that his comrades would die like this, at the hands of the people they wanted to save!
"I ...... I don't want to eat garbage anymore! I don't want to drink any more stinky water......" said the boy in a trembling and frightened tone, but with greed and madness in his eyes, "I'm going back...... I want to eat rice with chicken on it, and I want to be a cadre......"
"As long as I kill you, there will be a chance...... The president said...... As long as the president arrives, I will be saved......"
If Kavin is stunned, "saved"?
Who is saving people!!
But despite the mental shock, he reacted immediately.
It can't be delayed any longer, Darcy's men have arrived!
Almost by the time he realized this, the roar of the car engine had already sounded, and the off-road vehicle wrapped in iron was rampage towards Kathu!
The men of the defense department of the Iron Union had arrived, and a group of mermaids jumped out of the off-road vehicle, and with a click, the bolt of the Sugri rifle had been drawn, and the bullet in the magazine was only waiting to pull the trigger.
For example, Kavin's pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately reflexively ran, and at the same time he was extremely puzzled in his heart, how did these guys come so fast?!
But he soon knew, because when he looked back, he saw a ragged man getting out of one of the buggies.
"Waji Abor?! Why! ”
He gasped, still looking incredulous.
This old man who has been helping them take care of the food was rescued from the broken bricks and tiles after being bombed by the gangs!
Then he saw that the old man was groveling and nodding to the union masters, as if asking for payment, and then the leading union cadre was very happy to reward him with a 7.66 caliber Wagnan bullet.
If Kavin is running away, he must rush to inform his companions so that they can flee immediately!
But the guys apparently didn't want to let them go, and drove straight in, and the modified and reinforced off-road vehicles ignored the walls and streets of this garbage town, and went on a rampage destroying large swathes of the block.
For a while, the chaotic and noisy screams boiled and exploded, and the sewage and garbage flew under the wheels, and some people who had time to escape in the future were also swept under the wheels.
The boy who had just been pushed to the ground by Ru Kawen got up from the ground with wide eyes after seeing the car of the Iron Union, as if he saw hope and the future, which was his promotion ladder and bonus!
He sat on his knees and raised his hands to attract their attention, shouting, "I killed one of them!" I killed a wild dog, come and pick me up, I want to see the president, I want to ......"
Poof—
The engine roared so wildly that the off-road vehicle ignored him and ran over him, turning him into a pile of paint on the ground.
Ordinary civilians in the town are also being shot at random, but it doesn't matter to them at all, what does it matter if these guys in the garbage heap die or not?
Rather, they should have cleaned up long ago after they were mixed with wild dogs!
There is no need to care about the lives of these townspeople, there are no journalists or "human rights fighters" here, and no one will know what happened tonight, as it has been in the past years.
Soon the situation became one-sided, with a total of five heavy off-road vehicles rushing in, and a large number of townspeople, along with their humble houses, became stepping under the wheels, mixing into the sewage ditches, adding a new color to the filthy running water.
More than 20 members of the armed department of the Iron Union armed with rifles and even grenades, such as Kavin and others, were suddenly attacked and could not escape at all, so they could only turn out the weapons hidden here and choose to fight with them!
The firefight is on the verge of erupting, and the flames are burning in this garbage-strewn world, and stray bullets are passing by from time to time.
But it was not so much a firefight as a one-sided assault.
For example, the firepower of Carven's side is simply not enough to match this group of wild wolves that Darcy's family has raised for decades, and there are even mercenaries who have been exiled from overseas!
"No, I can't stand it, two more brothers have been killed"
Bloodied companions came to Rukavin's side and pulled him away against the ubiquitous sound of gunfire.
"Scatter and flee!"
If Kavin also understands that the general trend has gone, how many can go now, he will find another place to meet in the future.
If there is another day.
"No! Those townsfolk don't want to let us sneak away from their house! They are afraid of being implicated......"
Another bad news, such as Carvin's face was even more ugly.
He looked at a guy who had just locked the door and recognized it as Inu, who had received relief food from him.
Not only him, but very few people in the entire town of Kathu were willing to lend a helping hand to them at the moment, and many of those people had received their favors and help.
Why is this happening? What do we get in exchange for our efforts and struggles?
For example, Kavin didn't have time to think about it, because his other comrade-in-arms not far away was squeezed out of the underground ruins by a group of townspeople, and then he was shot with countless blood holes all over his body under the random gunfire.
At a glance, those numb, humble, and gray faces only have cowardice and fear.
As if Kavin's heart was dead, he knew why these people didn't help him.
Because they feel that they have no chance of winning, who will help a person who is bound to lose?
But then you will be fine! Will you survive then? Will it always be like this?
He wanted to scream and ask questions to the Lamb-like crowd.
The bullet that swept through his scalp grazed a dangerous and dangerous blood mark, causing him to stagger and fall, rolling and crawling to avoid several fatal shots.
But he had no way back, and a few hundred meters away was the wheels of the tin off-road vehicle, which was running towards him.
Ru Kavin sighed at this moment, as if relieved, but relaxed, everything was over.
At this moment, there was a sudden squeak behind him, and the door of the hut behind him broke open, and a small black hand grabbed his clothes and shouted eagerly: "Come in!" Run away Uncle Escape! ”
It's Gina, and before he knows it, he's running away to Gina's cabin.
Looking back, Gina actually climbed out of bed, and from the window she saw that Ru Kavin was being hunted down, and she was so eager that she struggled all the way to the door with her legs without feet, and opened the door to save him.
In the whole town, only this dying girl is willing to open the door for herself.
He laughed, inexplicably relieved, and then took the girl's thin and seriously ill body in his arms.
Gently said to her: "Don't be afraid of Gina, uncle will always watch you"
The girl's big bright dark eyes were full of tears, and they rolled down like pearls, just nodding their heads.
A loud humming sound approached behind him, and the scorching air currents had fumigated in, as if Calven had closed his eyes.
Life is about like this, stubborn but helpless.
"I don't regret it"
It was the last word he left for himself.
"Fuck, I just can't stand it"
A vulgar mouth, but like a sad sigh, a familiar voice came.
For example, Kavin suddenly opened his eyes, and saw a figure rising from the smoke and dust of the hot air on the street, and those strong car lights shone in the smoke, making this figure seem to come from the junction of earth and hell.
He was naturally not the only one who noticed this sudden appearance, and the group of people from the Armed Forces Department of the Iron Trade Union were the first to find out.
"And wild dogs! Don't let it go, the president's order is to slaughter them all! ”
With a roar with a thick foreign accent, a dozen rifles on several off-road vehicles were all aimed at the figure in the smoke screen.
But the man came as if in a hurry, and easily broke off a steel bar from the rubble on the side, as easily as breaking a chopstick.
Tom tom !! Dada!!
A large number of rifles fired at the same time, and a dense barrage of bullets like machine gun fire intertwined and splashed over, directly raising a dust storm on the ground!
It is impossible for any creature to survive under this kind of intensive shooting, the cadre of the armed forces department grinned, damn, it really scared Lao Tzu, I don't know what I thought it was, a bluff thing that didn't even have a guy or anything.
However, after the smoke cleared, he was shocked to see no trace of a corpse on the road.
"Over there!"
The rotatable headlights on the off-road vehicle shine in the other direction, where a figure holding a steel bar is located.
When?!
The second-level cadre was shocked and immediately organized a fire, but before he could give the order, Li Heng had already moved, waving his arms as easily as if he was playing with a pitcher, and the steel bars in his hands disappeared.
Immediately after that, the sound of the violent wind suddenly sounded!
Far faster than the fastest and strongest javelin and archery in the world, the 30-centimeter-long steel bar carried the kinetic energy of a speeding car to break through the atmosphere, tying the armed forces together like barbecue skewers and nailing them to their iron cars!
"Shoot! Shoot! fuck! fuck! Shoot me all! ”
The second-level cadre roared like crazy, and then untied a fragmentation grenade from his waist and threw it in Li Heng's direction.
Then I saw a black afterimage flashing quickly, and the grenade was intercepted in mid-air, and in the hellish eyes of this second-level cadre, Li Heng held the grenade and stuffed it directly into his mouth that he opened because of surprise, and then quickly jumped away.
For a few moments, the Ironworkers saw their boss fall from the roof of the car, still spitting smoke from his mouth.
Boom –
The quality of this M309 fragmentation grenade produced in Druze is stable, and the second-level cadre and the entire off-road vehicle were all blown into sparks, and the wheels flew out dozens of meters and smashed over a garbage heap.
The sudden death of the commander made this group of stragglers, who could not compare with the regular army, suddenly panic and disperse, either shooting indiscriminately, or throwing away their armor and adding to the chaos.
In the darkness, Li Heng picked up a long strip of steel that was burning with gasoline, like a holy sword burning with fire!
Slowly squatting compresses the energy in the body, and the biological energy is constantly accumulated, and it is stored until it ...... Burst in an instant!
In a short interval of only a fraction of a second, he was like a fighter plane taking off on the runway, surging forward with the flaming "blade" in his hand to cut through the dark night of the town and tear through the boundless dark curtain!
Take charge of the flames, burn the haze, smash the curtain of the sky, and I am invincible!
The last off-road vehicle that escaped, all the way panicked left and right, but was still caught up by the speeding "fire meteor" behind after more than ten seconds, and the driver looked at the red light in the rearview mirror and magnified the despair in his heart.
"Ahh
Even the body and fuel tank were cut open by the burning "blade", and the violent impact made the steel bar in Li Heng's hand unable to support it, and it was shattered into thousands of fire fragments, and at the same time, the entire off-road vehicle also crashed into a ruin with a raging fire out of control, and then exploded into a huge fireball!
The entire "central district" of Kathu Town has been reduced to a rubbish dump after this series of critical attacks.
Although it itself was built from a dump.
Li Heng's figure walked step by step in the darkness, walked to the center of the abandoned town, and stood on the largest off-road vehicle that he had destroyed before, which was equipped with a huge night light and was powered by a large electrode.
Click! Li Heng smashed the searchlight with one hand and lifted the crackling electrode aloft with electric sparks.
Then he shouted in a low voice that could be heard throughout the town: "All out!" ”
Looking at his image of holding aloft the electric light like a god in the dark, and the scene of Fang Cai's murder, anyone who heard this low cry could not help but tremble in their hearts.
The creaking and creaking of the door opened, the grinding of footsteps, the heads of the crowd poked out, and the numb and stiff townsfolk walked out with trepidation.
Hundreds of people gathered into the darkness and slowly approached, and no one dared to disobey or speak out.
Just after the war, there were flames burning and popping everywhere, but none of the people made a sound, the extreme noise and the extreme silence, and it was also the ultimate contradiction.
Li Heng, who was standing at the top, looked down at the vast crowd in the darkness with a gloomy face, and at this moment his expression was like a cruel demon, which was very different from his usual peaceful and upright aura.
Then, he spoke—
"See you pigs and dogs clearly!"
"You numb, rotten things that are hopelessly numb!"
"Cowardly, incompetent, humble, shameful, ants with no possibility of being saved!"
To be mercilessly ridiculed, wanton insults, to be the most rude and vulgar words in the world will be left, no, the dignity that has long been exhausted will be trampled out of the mire again!
"Your hearts and brains are clogged with mud and filth, and you have no consciousness, no wisdom, no spirituality, neither Jesus of Christ, nor Shakya of Buddhism, nor even the birth of a saint in heaven, can save you!"
"No way!"
The voice made by Li Heng's internal strength was not very loud, but it was low and long, and it could be heard clearly, and everyone present who did not have a hearing problem could hear it.
"You are the only beings who can be dominated"
Indifferent language slashed through the earth like a sickle, mingling with the bleak night wind.
"In that case, continue to be dominant."
Li Heng's gaze was so cold that it swept over the numb faces, the stunned faces, and the depressed and overwhelmed faces......
"Accept my domination!"
With these words, he suddenly crushed the huge metal electrode, the sparks exploded and the electric light flickered, and countless flames of light fell and burst out behind him, reflecting his figure, setting it off like a god in thunder!
"You can also refuse, you can rebel, if you still have that kind of heart, or you can accept my domination for a while, and then rebel later, and so on...... All possibilities don't matter to me."
"As long as you can bear the consequences of all your choices"
"Even though your choices mean nothing to me, your submission and submission, rebellion and confrontation still don't seem to me to be."
"Even everything I say and do now is just out of the common empathetic mentality of being the intellectual life forms on this planet, and it is all done on a whim!"
"But these are all for you now, everything is everything, and this is the future!"
Li Heng's posture at this moment is so domineering, arbitrary, unreasonable, and condescending, it is the posture of an arrogant tyrant, the leader of the cult that tramples on human nature, and the evil omen of the unscrupulous madman who is spurned......
But he still doesn't care, he doesn't care about any kind of vision and opinion.
What the fuck democracy and freedom, benevolence, righteousness, and wisdom are paramount, and human rights are supreme...... And so on, high-sounding doctrines and slogans are all things that are useless here, and it is impossible to save them from them.
At this moment, the only thing that can really fish them out of this endless quagmire and abyss is power and ...... Strength!
As for what will happen in the future, how it will develop in a few years.
That kind of thing the hell knows?!
If you can't even get over the present, what is the future?
"Hear clearly, and stand up for me! Don't collapse on the floor like a poop dump anymore! ”
"Even if it's just a piece of mud, give me a good patch of mud!"
"Let me dominate you and drive you, all of you who can't find the direction of life, let me define your survival marker and live for me!"
"First of all, the first thing is to get up for me, and pull out all those worms with poisonous claws and claws that can only suck human blood!"
"And don't worry when those poisonous insects come back"
"Because of me, I'm going to crush their minions"
