In the last days, whoever has food and weapons will be the king.
Clearly, I now have both.
Wang Long gritted his teeth and said, "I will never betray you. I will obey you in everything."
Hunger has made him put down his arrogance as a young master.
Xue Anya covered her face and looked at me with confusion.
My voice just now was not deliberately lowered, she must have felt familiar again.
But I didn't care. With the shelter established, it was only a matter of time before she knew who I was.
I just don't know what kind of expression she will have at that time.
I took out five bags of compressed biscuits from the waterproof bag, one bag for each person, which was enough for them to eat.
At this moment, Wang Long and the two strong men stood up in excitement.
"Don't even move."
I roared in a deep voice.
Originally I planned to bring a compound crossbow, but after thinking about it, I handed the loaded crossbow into Xiao Leng's hands.
Bending down, I whispered in her ear: "In a moment, you will shoot whoever attacks me."
Xiao Leng took the compound crossbow and nodded heavily.
While I let down my guard and built trust, I also had to give myself a backup plan.
"Brother, don't worry, you can help us survive. We will never be ungrateful."
The strong man on the side spoke. He stared at the thing in my hand, his eyes seemed to be shining.
I handed the compressed biscuit into his hand, and he tore off the seal and swallowed it dry.
They have been hungry for too long, and eating is no better than what Xue Anya did just now.
After passing the food to everyone, I sat back down on the steps.
I was waiting for them to eat and watching them at the same time.
When it comes to a person, never listen to what he says, just watch what he does.
After all, if you are extremely hungry, you can do anything, let alone make a few promises?
The old man slowly opened the compressed biscuits with saliva. His movements were much slower due to his old age and weakness.
Two strong men gobbled it up!
When I got choked, I rushed to the sink, put my head directly in and drank.
I quickly stopped, "Stop! Don't pollute the water source!"
A strong man looked up at me and said, "Then what should I drink?"
I threw an empty water bottle at him and said, "Drink from the bottle. Every water source is precious now. The water sources outside have been contaminated by nuclear radiation."
"If you don't want to die of thirst or excessive radiation, just do this."
The strong man was stunned for a moment, then reached out to wipe the corner of his mouth and picked up the kettle.
He poured water into the kettle and drank it in large gulps.
After finishing the drink, the strong man handed it to the man next to him.
However, at this moment, a slap suddenly sounded.
"F*ck you, eat, eat, eat! Do you deserve to eat too?!"
Xue Anya fell to the ground in response, and Wang Long snatched her share of compressed biscuits!
"B*tch! I only had a mouthful of greasy residue from what I had to eat just now, and now I still have the nerve to eat it!"
Wang Long cursed mercilessly.
However, this time Xue Anya couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears for a moment.
"Ugh...I'm hungry..."
"I'm not hungry!?"
Bang bang!
Another slap from Wang Long made Xue Anya dizzy, both sides of her face were completely swollen, and her wails became even louder.
I stood up instantly and said, "Stop!"
Before I finished speaking, I saw a few more shadows outside the air-raid shelter from the corner of my eye.
That kind of thing, attracted by the sound again? ? !
Without any time to think, I picked up the compound crossbow and went straight down to give Wang Long a kick.
"If you don't want to die, please give me peace!"
I lowered my voice and yelled, "Shut up and don't cry!"
Xue Anya's crying became much quieter after I yelled at her, but she still couldn't stop sobbing.
They were a little confused, but when I turned around and went back, I saw with my own eyes that there was an extra head behind Xiao Leng!
"Xiao Leng!"
That kind of monster had already touched Xiao Leng's back without knowing when!
My mind almost went blank, and I rushed towards Xiao Leng as fast as I could.
I pulled Xiao Leng into my arms, and almost at the same time, a head with two compound eyes bit down on Xiao Leng's position.
Xiao Leng fell into my chest and suddenly screamed.
I pressed Xiao Leng's head on my chest to prevent her from looking back.
That head had sharp sword teeth. If it had been bitten just now, Xiao Leng would have been dead.
I kept retreating. The air-raid shelter behind me was still wide, so there was no chance of escape.
The situation is really bad now, and I have to be careful about the people behind me.
In order to grab my waterproof bag, they might have pushed me.
But out of the corner of my eye, they seemed to be frightened by this monster.
And the old man who was eating just now is now lying on the ground, motionless!
'Hiss...uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh but...! '
A piercing scream came from the monster's mouth!
It made my head dizzy.
Barely able to steady his body, the monster stretched out its front feet and stepped forward in large strides.
I pulled Xiao Leng and backed away quickly. I had seen this kind of thing eat people with my own eyes.
But I'm not sure how fast this thing is, and how likely I am to escape with Xiao Leng.
After all, the first two times, we escaped because of luck, but this time we met directly.
As the monster moved, a fishy smell filled the air.
Even I can't help but feel weak in the face of such a weird creature.
The face of this thing is very human-like, and the ears are even human-like.
But with the disgusting compound eyes and sharp fangs, he is simply a monster.
That thing reached the stairs outside the air-raid shelter and didn't take another step forward.
It lingered outside the firelight, not daring to move forward but unwilling to leave.
"He's afraid of fire?!"
I was shocked. The temporary safety made my brain clearer.
From the first time I saw this monster in the black rain, various details in my memory began to emerge.
To be precise, it may not be afraid of fire, but of light!
Just now, when the night sky was as bright as day, I saw these things lying outside the air-raid shelter. And they ran away quickly because the light was too bright.
That's why they don't show up during the day.
In addition, compound eyes allow them to keenly capture moving objects, but they cannot see prohibited things clearly.
When I realized this, I suddenly figured out why Xiao Leng and I ran into this creature in the ruins for the first time, why it didn't notice us.
As long as it remains still, it is blind.
And the human-like nose on this monster's face makes me sure that he is not sensitive to smell recognition.
Outside the firelight, it lingered unwillingly.
When everyone remained still, it stretched its weird neck, circled the stone steps of the air-raid shelter, and finally turned and left.
At this moment, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The two strong men fell to the ground, breathing heavily.
Wang Long's eyes widened and he had not yet recovered from the shock.
"Then...what is that..."
It turned out that he didn't know the characteristics of that monster, he was just frightened and didn't dare to move when we didn't move.
Noticing that I was looking at him, Wang Long quickly explained, "I...those monsters were not caused by me, they were all caused by her, that b*tch! It was all because of her crying!"
My eyes fell on the two bags of compressed biscuits in his hands through the gas mask.
"You...you listen to my explanation..."
Before he could finish speaking, I kicked Wang Long in the chest. With a muffled sound, two bags of compressed biscuits fell to the ground. Wang Long's whole body was kicked down and he slid some distance on the ground.
This kick made him wail, but he covered his mouth tightly and did not dare to make too much noise.
I remained silent and bent down to pick up the two bags of compressed biscuits. "From now on, I will set the rules."
"Anyone who refuses to obey, get out or die."
