The man with the buzz cut pursed his lips and quietly took two steps to the side.

Judging from Shen Chengyin's skillful technique and the speed of his treatment, this person is definitely more than a beginner.

At the very least, he's a mid-level superhuman.

Was this person deliberately hiding their strength?

The girl who led the way tried to escape, but the man with the buzz cut grabbed her, slapped her twice until she was unconscious, and threw her to the ground.

When Ah Gang regained consciousness, although he didn't understand his current situation, he subconsciously felt that if he didn't say anything, he might not be far from death.

"I...I think I heard Ahan and Jinting go out, but I don't know which direction they went."

Ah Gang's voice trailed off, a deadly low pressure descending upon him. He quickly added:

"Um... Jin Ting is seriously injured! Her wound is bleeding profusely!"

He was carried onto the slaughtering platform first, followed by Jin Ting. Before he fainted from the pain, he heard Jin Ting's screams.

As Shen Chengyin's frustration deepened, he took out a small emergency flashlight from his pocket and shone it on the ground.

The ground here was already covered in blood, sticky to the touch. Shen Chengyin squatted down and examined the bloodstains carefully.

The fresh bloodstains were barely discernible.

Once he determined the direction, the man ignored the two people behind him and quickly chased after them.

Crew-cut and Ah-Gang exchanged a glance, then nimbly got up and followed.

The road was narrow and dark, barely wide enough for one person to pass through. Shen Chengyin kept walking in one direction, while A Gang lit a fire behind him and held it in his palm to illuminate the surroundings.

The three of them searched for about five minutes before arriving at a relatively empty room.

There's some noise ahead.

Before anyone could warn him whether they were friend or foe, Shen Chengyin had already rushed forward.

Su Han was startled by the commotion behind him. A familiar aura rushed towards him, and he breathed a sigh of relief, putting down the knife in his hand.

The next second, he was pulled into an embrace and examined from head to toe.

At this moment, the crew-cut man also saw Jin Ting by the wall. Jin Ting no longer had the strength to stand. Her face was pale, and she was breathing very little. She obviously didn't have much time left to live.

The long wound on her chest was still bleeding, a shocking sight.

"How did you find this place? This place is so weird, I thought I'd have to get out on my own," Su Han asked Shen Chengyin.

He still feels a bit uneasy all over.

Shen Chengyin didn't answer, but grabbed the boy's wrist. The cuts on his fingertips had scabbed over, mixed with water and blood, making him look miserable.

"How did you get hurt?"

"No, I accidentally got this on myself when I was cutting the rope."

With a buzz cut, he held Jin Ting in one arm, on the verge of tears.

Brother! There's someone dying, brother!

Shen Chengyin rubbed Su Han's injured fingertip, and the wound quickly disappeared.

Crew cut: Bro! There's someone over here with a wound a meter long!

"Does it hurt?" Shen Chengyin asked.

"You forgot, I don't feel pain."

"I haven't forgotten."

Crew cut: Bro! There's someone here who's dying of pain, physiologically dead!

Only after confirming that Su Han hadn't been hurt at all did Shen Chengyin finally have the mood to look at the people on the ground.

Although Cun Tou and Jin Ting didn't get along, he couldn't bear to watch his teammate die in front of him.

Holding Jin Ting in his arms, he finally mustered the courage to plead, "Brother... if you have the ability, could you... help stop the bleeding?"

He wasn't sure if Shen Chengyin would help; the man seemed completely indifferent to other people's lives.

Sure enough, Shen Chengyin looked away and started to leave.

Su Han hooked Shen Chengyin's finger again and pulled him back.

"If you're not tired, why don't you lend a hand? We're teammates."

They're all teammates; if we really need to deal with this, it's best to kill all three of them at once. Leaving one alive and one dead will cause a lot of trouble.

Besides, it's not time to deal with them yet.

Shen Chengyin paused, but without hesitation, he used the same method to stop Jin Ting's bleeding.

However, he did not treat Ah Gang with the same intensity and vigor he had shown, but only kept him in a state where he could survive.

As long as a person doesn't die, that's enough; nothing else matters to him.

Jin Ting coughed twice and opened her eyes, but still couldn't speak.

The pain was so intense that even consciousness became blurred.

Su Han nodded and led Shen Chengyin to push open a door.

"We got lost and ended up here...and found these things."

The room was pitch black, and the stench was nauseating.

Ah Gang quickly and tactfully squeezed to the front, a ball of fire appearing in his palm.

The firelight illuminated the interior, making every corner crystal clear.

Everyone gasped in shock.

In the small room, several thick hemp ropes were laid out horizontally, and each rope was densely covered with dried meat.

Some are smoked, while others are simply bled and dried. The front row consists of strips of meat, while the back row consists of severed limbs with bones attached.

Thighs and calves.

Some even extend to the ankle, the flesh is black and rotten, but the toes are still clearly distinguishable, preserving the basic human structure.

The arm that connects to the hand, the woman's breast, neck, and ribs.

At a glance, almost every part is recognizable. There are a dozen or so people here alone, conservatively estimated.

Not to mention what this family has eaten over such a long period of time.

They used the most common methods for preserving meat in rural areas. The spoiled meat was piled up in the corner of the room, some of which had already decomposed into a pile of watery slime.

Ah Gang glanced at it a few times, couldn't hold it in, gagged twice, and ran to the side to vomit.

Su Han frowned, her stomach churning, and she felt terrible.

Before the apocalypse, this continent was rich in resources. After the apocalypse, most people turned into zombies. Although the remaining people had to go hungry, they would not starve to death as long as they were willing to search for supplies.

Fights often broke out over food, but Su Han had never encountered cannibalism.

This family is... incredibly stupid.

The man with the buzz cut closed his eyes, refusing to look at the horrific scene before him: "So... the reason they've been able to survive so long in the apocalypse is because they've been hunting down passersby in this way?"

That's incredibly stupid...

If they only eat human flesh, their own bodies will not be able to withstand it for long, and they will only face death.

"They have many children. Ordinary people wouldn't be wary of children, especially those with superpowers."

"This is the edge of the city, a relatively open and safe no-man's-land. Many survivors would rather take a detour to enter the city from here."

Favorable timing and location fostered the growth of evil practices.

The group couldn't bear to look, so they closed the door and wandered around the floorboards.

When Su Han arrived at the water-damaged room where he had been initially imprisoned, he discovered that the two little boys he had previously knocked unconscious were gone.

They probably ran away sometime ago.

"The ground here is all water, real water." Su Han stomped her feet twice, making a splashing sound. "It would take a lot of water to fill this place up."

"You mean...?" The man with the buzz cut frowned.

"This means they don't lack water; there must be a well or something similar here."

The man with the buzz cut's eyes lit up.
