No one thought of hurting someone, let alone killing someone.

No one, including Chen Deqing, has ever had a similar idea. They never thought that the gun in the other party was a useless decoration, nor did they think that sticks and knives could gain the upper hand. However, when the request was repeatedly rejected, the idea of ​​eating and sleeping in their minds became stronger and stronger, until they occupied all their thinking, reason was also engulfed by violent flames, and the impulse that did not consider any consequences became the ruler of the logical concept.

The outsider instinctively believed that Chen Kun would not shoot.

Isn't it right? Killing is a crime. This is not an important place like a vault, nor is it a military controlled area. The people in the fence look ordinary no matter how they look at it, or even a policeman. They beat him up and vent their anger. At worst, they can say a few good things afterwards and pay some valuable things.

The thinking of these people is still stuck in the civilization era more than a month ago.

It is no longer possible to investigate who took the action first. But this is not important at all. Chen Kun could find everyone's footprints, and Su Hao also regarded all the outsiders outside the camp as enemies.

There was silence around them, anger and gasps gradually calmed down, the blood in their bodies and the impulse in their minds were also cooled, and fear was revealed in their glaring eyes. They wanted to say something to show that they were innocent, but found that the members of the armed team waiting around were cold in their expressions and were full of unconcealed murderous intent.

Chen Deqing lifted his heavy legs and walked out of the crowd slowly. He looked extremely innocent with a faint expression.

"We...we didn't mean it."

He tried to search for words that were suitable for use on such occasions, but it sounded dry and without any convincing: "We, we just wanted to get the same treatment as others, water and food, and there was nothing else to do. I... I'm sorry."

Su Hao stared into his eyes.

At such a close distance, Chen Deqing found that the handsome face was similar to the savage. It was very hideous and terrifying. This strange change was entirely caused by anger, which twisted the beautiful things to a terrifying level. Chen Deqing's heart immediately trembled, and then it started to beat rapidly in great panic, and even the urge to turn around and escape appeared in his mind.

"Feel sorry?"

Su Hao's tone was full of indescribable weirdness.

He was surprised that the other party would say this word at this time?

Chen Kun was almost beaten to death by them. If the guards on the alert tower were found out for a few seconds late, they would probably be killed on the spot. Such a serious matter was just a few light explanations.

Don't they know the consequences of doing so?

Are these people on the other side all fools and idiots?

“We are willing to compensate.”

A slender, skinny and arrogant middle-aged man walked out of the crowd and stood in front of Su Hao. He untied the thick gold chain on his neck and said in a cold tone without any guilt: "If you think gold is useless, we can also help you with work for a few days. Unfortunately, the kind of thing just happened, and I didn't expect this situation to happen. No matter what, first of all, we are wrong, but your approach is also wrong. We just want food and accommodation, but you are always aggressive. We have no choice but to hope... you can understand."

Under the moonlight, a faint silver light appeared on the surface of Su Hao's skin.

He was very surprised, why didn't he immediately shoot the other party's arrogant head?

Yes, the middle-aged man apologized, but he had no sincerity at all, and his words were obvious sarcastic. It can be seen that he was well maintained, and his brand clothing and gold chains were not something that ordinary people could have. However, it is the Black Era, and his previous identity and property did not mean anything. He could not even buy a steamed bun for hundreds of millions of yuan in banknotes, and the military recycling of gold was only used as industrial raw materials.

Do these people really think that killing and beating are still as unsurprising as before? Can you trample on others' dignity without punishment? Can you buy people's lives with hundreds of thousands of dollars?

What is the difference between this and the wilderness refugees in the future world?

Su Hao felt chills all over his body, especially his heart, as cold as ice.

"Is this the so-called civilization era?"

He murmured, squinting his eyes unconsciously. The eyes released from deep in his pupils were not only cold, but also as sharp as a knife.

Not only him, but all the team members standing around showed the same coldness, and the anger in their eyes became more and more violent.

"Bang----"

Gunshots came from behind, and a bullet drew a trajectory in the air at a speed that Su Hao could see clearly, accurately drilled into the middle-aged man's head. The strong energy exploded, lifting the skull, causing the whole person to fall backwards and turn upwards.

Xinyan walked up with a slightly hot pistol, blocked Su Hao, stared at the crowd of outsiders with fear, and viciously ordered the team members standing around: "Kill them all————"

Gunshots rang one after another, breaking the tranquility under the night sky.

Chen Deqing heard him shouting, roaring, begging. His face turned blood red, his lips opened but he could not breathe air, and the blue veins on his neck were repeatedly entangled. The smoke and screams from around him drown the entire cochlea. He felt his body getting heavier and heavier, and the bullets that penetrated his chest and abdomen were crushing the internal organs. He wanted to hide, but he could not move his legs and feet. This feeling of discomfort quickly spread throughout his body, and he pulled his body down very slowly, and fell heavily.

More than twenty corpses lie on the ground, emitting strong blood.

Lu Nuoer and the others stood at the entrance of the camp, watching the massacre from afar.

She felt her heart be grabbed by her invisible hands, and she took a few deep breaths before adjusting. She turned her head with difficulty and found that the person standing next to her was similar to her, her whole body was tense, her face was as pale as a dead person, and her breathing was almost solidified.

The anger in Xinyan's eyes faded slightly. She pulled out the magazine, took out a few bullets from her pocket and pressed them in hard, took a step back and walked to Su Hao, and only two people could hear the voice saying, "You are the leader of the team and you must maintain a positive image. From now on, leave these things to me."

The words are short, but there is a lot of information.

Su Hao felt that his cold heart was surrounded by a warm current, causing him to thaw.

He always felt that the relationship with Xinyan was just like each other, supporting each other in the black world full of death threats, warming each other.

Now, he is sure that this feeling should be deeper.

Maybe it's love.

..

This night, many people didn't sleep well, and even couldn't sleep all night.

The early morning air is slightly cool and fresh, and the light golden sunshine sprinkles through the pines, reflecting the dewdrops, flashing a crystal-clear colorful light. Birds fly out of the nest, standing on the branches to start their first singing of the day. They occasionally fly down, jumping back and forth on the cold, hard and staggering corpses, and staring curiously at these long-dead people.

Dong Guoping directed two workers to drive the excavator out of the camp and dug a pit deep enough on the edge of the woodland hundreds of meters away. Except for the sentries left on the alert tower, the rest of the team members loaded the dead bodies onto trucks and transported them to the pit to fill.

The air was still filled with a faint smell of blood. Last night, more than a dozen zombies were attracted by this smell and came from the forest and along the road. They ate happily, but they didn't know that all this had been seen by the alert. People killed these monsters with iron sticks and machetes, and threw them all into the pits.

White steam still floated out of the kitchen, and the fragrance of rice porridge and steamed buns was no different from usual. People stood in the open space near the residential building, silently staring at the excavator with the roaring engines in the distance. The atmosphere around them became tense and dull, and no one felt hungry or thirsty.

Xinyan stood next to Su Hao, with a little sad expression.

After the rage flames that occupied her mind were extinguished, she suddenly realized that she had done a little too much---Although people outside the camp were involved in the chaos, not everyone hurt Chen Kun. At least... there were always a few people who were innocent.

Su Hao clicked on the people standing in front of him. There were 46 in total, all of whom were outsiders who accepted the conditions yesterday afternoon and were allowed to enter the camp.

Looking at the people in front of him, Su Hao said lightly: "Today, is there anyone willing to stay and work?"

No one answered. Even Lu Nuoer pursed her lips tightly, her body trembling slightly.

"Everyone has a different view on the same thing. I don't ask for your approval, nor do I expect you to be on my side."

Su Hao felt that his voice sounded far away, but it was loud and tough enough: "My man was injured and almost killed. The cause of the dispute was very simple, just because those outside wanted to come in and get a place of accommodation and food. I don't want to talk about morality or justice, and I don't force you. Come and go here and go without restrictions. The conditions are the same as yesterday. Those who are willing to work have food and accommodation. I feel that it is difficult for me to get along with or cannot communicate, so I can leave now."

A few minutes of silence.

A man with gray hair and slightly old hair stood up first. He looked at Su Hao with fear and hatred, his lips trembling, and said in a low and angry manner: "You...How can you do this? They are not unreasonable, you can persuade them well, I believe they will understand. We came from a long distance, and everyone wants to have a good rest. You can agree to the request first and let them work today. I believe..."

"If the Sentinel had discovered it for a few seconds last night, my man might have been killed by them----"

Su Hao rudely interrupted the other party: "If the request is not met, you will kill someone? You will create chaos? I am afraid that no one will agree with this statement at any time. If a beggar stands at your doorstep and asks for food, and if he doesn't give it, he will rush into the house to kill someone, what will you do when you encounter this situation? Call the police? Hold up a kitchen knife to chop someone? Or welcome him in like a king and serve him respectfully?"

"Then you can't kill anyone!"

The old man roared loudly: "Everything must be ruled on the law. You have no right to kill anyone, nor have the right to occupy anything that is shared. Including the land under your feet, it belongs to the country, not to you———"

This sentence caused a great response among the onlookers. A considerable number of people were talking and talking in a low voice. Some of them were eager to try and wanted to come out to argue with Su Hao. They were afraid of the guards on the surrounding guard towers and the fully armed team members next to them, so they suppressed their anger and waited for further changes in things.

Su Hao's eyes became colder and colder. Looking at the man in front of him who felt that he had the upper hand of morality and justice, he suddenly curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, emitting an extremely strange charm.

"Law? Hahahaha..."

He kept a smile, his voice trembling and indescribable coldness: "There are no laws here, only rules."

Su Hao turned his eyes to the crowd behind the man, his tone was very serious and full of irresistible majesty: "My rules are very simple - no one can touch my people. Just like last night, who dared to do this, or wanted to try, I would kill him."

"Arrogant————”

The old man was almost yelling: "Who gave you the power to act recklessly? This is a legal country, not your independent kingdom. I... I want to sue you! And the woman next to you. I saw it very clearly last night that it was her shot!"

Xinyan's eyes kept twitching, biting her lip tightly. These words whipped her like a whip, which was very uncomfortable, but she could not find the words to refute immediately.

Su Hao noticed the emotional changes of the women beside him. He held Xinyan's hand, clenched, and looked coldly at the excited old man, raised his hand and pointed to the camp entrance in the distance, and said calmly: "Go! The door is right there, no one stops you."

As he said that, he turned around and looked at the outsiders who were gathering together, and said lightly: "You have five minutes to think about it. Stay, have food and shelter. I will not stop you from leaving."

Almost everyone was hesitating, and a few people with a firm expression stood up and walked to the old man. The crowd quickly divided into two distinct groups, and each word said in his mouth was related to words such as "food", "hot water", and "safety". The voice became louder and louder, and the discussion became more intense. If it weren't for fear of the guards carrying guns and ammunitions on the surrounding guard towers, it would even evolve into quarrels.

"I really don't want to leave anymore. I guess the situation in the north is similar to that here. There are no army or police, and there are people-eating monsters everywhere... I think this place is pretty good. At least... at least they are very disciplined."

"Bad rules! That's just a cover-up. They have guns, and they kill them if they want. Haven't you seen the underground mines in the news that treat people as slaves? I think there is nothing different here. Lao Yang and Lao Zhang are both dead, I have to leave, and there is only one way to die. Don't forget, we are humans, not pigs and dogs———"

"Where can we go? Kunming? Chengdu? Or some city further away? Where is the goal?"

The noisy atmosphere made Su Hao frown. Just as he was about to reiterate the remaining time, he suddenly saw Lu Nuoer walking out of the crowd and coming to him.

Her eyes were filled with confusion. She was a little afraid and full of expectations: "If, if I stayed, would you treat me like the one who did yesterday?"

Perhaps because she felt that this was a bit complicated, she added: "I want to join. Will you protect me? You just said that no one can touch your person, and whoever dares to do this will kill him. Is that true?"

Su Hao stared at Liu Fei'er's eyes——There was no conspiracy or deceit in it, only infinite eager expectation. The girl pouted her lips, and the light in her eyes was stronger than ever.

Su Hao nodded calmly and said seriously: "I will do my best to protect every friend, and they will also give me the most powerful support when needed. This is the rule!"

“I’m willing to join———”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Nuoer said quickly without hesitation: "I am willing to stay!"

..

With the first person to stand out, more people will hold the same position.

Although Lu Nuoer is not the host among the outsiders and has no say, she is a companion along the way. Her actions inevitably affect others. Coupled with the harsh living environment and a future without a goal, it is naturally not difficult for people who are suffering from hunger and fatigue to make a choice.

The guard standing on the tower kept pointing his gun at the old man, watching him walk past Su Hao, and walk out of the camp with a lonely expression.

He was not alone, and there were five people who left with him.
