Why?
Why...
The last words of the girl when she fell to the ground under my knife kept echoing in my mind like a repeater, and I was completely in a trance.
Yes, why?
They were just ordinary people in Diantou Village. They kept their duties and never did anything wrong in their lives. They just lived a simple life on this land where their ancestors had lived for generations. They became corpses for no reason. Can they be blamed for this?
They... just had bad luck!
The chaos of yin and yang, right and wrong...
I was confused again. The things in this world made me at a loss again. Even if I had made up my mind to ignore the clouds and act according to my own heart, I still couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when I really saw the cruel scenes in the world.
The human heart is sometimes really powerful, as fierce as a tiger and as fierce as a wolf, but sometimes it is also fragile and vulnerable.
After standing there for a long time, I finally came to my senses. I stood up while enduring the pain in my body and pulled the knife out of the girl's chest. My heart was numb when I heard the sharp sound of the blade scraping against the bones.
A corpse is a corpse at night and a human being during the day. Killing a corpse is also killing a person!
Sometimes being an executioner is not an easy thing. At least, it is not an easy thing for me. I learned about courtesy, righteousness, integrity and honor in school and loyalty, righteousness, benevolence and courage in reading. I can't be a beast who treats human life as grass. I can't bear to hear other people's screams, unless... I hate him to the bone. However, the villagers of Diantou Village and I have never met before. Scarface really gave me a big problem!
At this time, the villagers of Diantou Village in the yard have turned from corpses to people. For a while, men, women, old and young, cried and shouted together.
Seeing that it was safe outside, Song Yanan and her group all came out of the house, all with ugly faces, especially Da Pao and his group, who turned their heads away and refused to look over here.
After a while, Song Yanan came over and asked me, "What should we do next?"
What to do...
I looked at the villagers of Diantou Village who were crying and shouting in the yard, and hesitated for a long time.
They are Fu Shi, I know, Fu Shi, hopeless Fu Shi, who will turn into corpses and hurt people at night, but now it is daytime, they have human appearance, human thinking, and all human characteristics! ! !
I was also in a dilemma, and I didn't consider this at all. I turned my head and looked at Song Yanan: "What do you think I should do?"
Song Yanan didn't say anything, I knew that she didn't know how to deal with the remaining villagers.
After hesitating for a long time, countless thoughts flashed through my mind. Finally, I gritted my teeth and said in a deep voice: "Catch!"
"Catch?"
Da Pao grinned, lowered his head and hesitated for a while before saying to me: "Comrade, this..."
I looked at him and said: "Can't do it?"
"Yes, I really can't do it!"
Da Pao smiled bitterly and said: "I joined the army to defend my country. I really can't do this!"
"I have to do it even if I can't do it. Soldiers should obey orders as their first duty!"
I gritted my teeth and said: "Don't forget, what you harvested last night was exactly the same as them, but they were monsters at night, and they were covered with human skin in the morning!"
After some hesitation, I actually had a plan in my heart and knew what I should do. Once I made up my mind, I would do it, so my tone was particularly stern when I spoke to Da Pao.
"That's what I said, but I understand the truth."
Da Pao spread his hands aside, sighed and said, "But it's another matter to do it. They look like living people now, which is different from last night. How can I do it?"
"I have to do it even if I can't. I have to endure the pain for a while to prevent future troubles!"
I said in a deep voice, "The poison of Fu Shi has no solution at all. These villagers are already dead. Why keep them? You can't save them. Let alone your special incident investigation team, even if all the heavenly masters in the world join together, they can't do anything. Who can resurrect the dead? If it's not completely solved, if one or two escape and run into the city, do you know what the consequences will be?"
As soon as I said this, it was like a heavy bomb dropped on their foreheads. Suddenly, they were speechless and their faces were very ugly.
They are all smart people, don't they know what will happen?
It's not difficult for us to deal with the corpse, because we are in this business, but what about ordinary people? Who can deal with this kind of thing that is like an iron plate and has infinite power? If it were me half a year ago, I would probably be bitten on the neck at the first sight!
This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the poison of the corpse is extremely contagious. If they attack a person, the person will immediately become a corpse, and then continue to harm other living people. It is much more terrible than the plague. If the corpse poison enters the blood after scratching the skin, it is 100% infected. Fortunately, the mother of the corpse appeared in the remote area of Mianshan, and the villagers of Diantou Village have not been out for a while. Otherwise, if they are thrown into a densely populated city, the lethality...
I am afraid that what we are facing now will no longer be a village of corpses, but a city of corpses, a country of corpses! ! !
I am not making this up. If only one person escapes, the end of the world is not far away. The doomsday scenes in some dramas will soon be staged in reality! !
I can understand this principle, how could they not understand it? As soon as I said it, they all turned pale!
"Anyway, I have issued the most sensible and correct order. It is up to you whether to obey it or not!"
I turned my head and looked at Da Pao deeply, and said word by word: "Haven't you always had a dream of being a hero? Now, the opportunity to be a hero is right in front of you, so go for it! Damn it, you only know how to daydream every day, want to enjoy the treatment of heroes, and want to accept the cheers of the masses, but you can't get over it, and can't bear the weight of the word hero. Aren't you just bragging? I tell you, if you can't stand the torture in your heart today, don't think about being a hero in the future. Do you really think it's easy to be a hero?"
Da Pao lowered his head after what I said, not only blushing, but also red eyes!
"Okay, I'll execute the order!"
To my surprise, the first person to stand up was Song Yanan. This woman's eyes were slightly red, but her back was straight: "He is right, these villagers are dead, they are dead, they are just wearing human skin to deceive us to be soft-hearted, we can't let them go, otherwise more and more people will die because of our momentary soft-heartedness, and we will even become sinners in this world!! Everyone obey the order, block the whole village, and don't let anyone escape!"
At this point, she suddenly looked at me, hesitated, sighed softly, and said to me: "It's hard for you!"
After saying that, Song Yanan walked towards the villagers in the yard without looking back. When she moved, Huoyao and the others hesitated and started to act. Only I was there with a bitter smile.
I am suffering?
It is indeed suffering. I gave the order, and all the sins... are on my shoulders!
If this matter is passed back to the Special Incident Investigation Team, I am afraid that the comments will be mixed. Some people understand me, and some people poke my spine.
But... so what? I just did the right thing, and I'm not a member of the Special Incident Investigation Team. After this mission, if I can return alive, I will never bother with this organization again. Both missions were not easy. Zhang Zhenlin, the old one, cheated me, and now his apprentice, Scarface, the young one, cheated me. I have finally seen clearly that no one in this lineage is good. I will stay away from them from now on!
As soon as Song Yanan and the others started, the whole village was in chaos. Finally, I asked Lin Qing and Chen Yu to join in, leaving only Zhou Jing and me in the yard.
I waited here for less than two hours. When it was about six or seven o'clock in the morning, Song Yanan finally came back with red eyes. She walked directly to my side and said, "Everyone has been arrested. So... what's next?"
I lowered my head, took out a cigarette from my pocket with some trembling, lit it for myself, and took several deep puffs. My lungs were burning and I felt indescribably uncomfortable, but my thoughts were much clearer. After hesitating for a long time, I finally uttered the word that had been lingering in my throat for a long time: "Kill!"
