The most eye-catching thing was that in front of a ruin, there were more than a dozen corpses hanging high on wooden stakes. The bright red blood flowed down the stakes, like a picture scroll of hell.

Everything I saw seemed to tell me that this was not a paradise on earth, but purgatory.

Riot. There is no doubt that a riot took place here not long ago, and the result of this riot is obvious.

A ruler with a gun in his hand will never have a chance of losing from the very beginning.

There are no tall buildings in Gucheng. The only building with more than two floors is located at the end of the sight. It should have been the signature attraction back then.

The person who led the way parked the car in front of the quaint wooden building, then slowly walked to my car and said expressionlessly.

"Our leader wants to see you."

I glanced at the several figures holding guns in front of the building and realized that I had no other choice. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I put the shotgun in the car and walked out of the car with empty hands.

The man seemed very satisfied with my actions. He nodded slightly at me, turned around and continued to lead the way for me.

I followed the man all the way into the building, and after entering, I couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

I saw that the furnishings in the building were extremely luxurious, with finely crafted sofas and crystal chandeliers. It was clearly an antique building, but it was filled with the remnants of modern civilization.

In this world, these things are not necessities, so few people are willing to take the risk and go to the city to search for them.

Extravagance and luxury, this is the only evaluation I have for this. Based on my previous observations, this is not a large stronghold with thousands of people, but the leader here lives a more luxurious life than the leaders of those large strongholds.

Will you die after satisfying your addiction?

I followed the guide all the way to the third floor, which seemed to have been converted into a restaurant. A man about the same age as Wang Quan was sitting at a long dining table, eating the meat on the plate slowly.

On his left and right stood two guards, looking straight ahead.

It seems that this man is the boss of this stronghold, the guy who betrayed Wang Quan and others and turned this place into a hell on earth.

"Boss, I brought people here."

Hearing this, the man raised his head slightly and looked at me with interest. There was something strange in his eyes. I had never seen anyone look at a living person in such a way. It made me feel uncomfortable.

The man waved gently to the guards on both sides and said with a smile.

"You guys go down first. This guest and I want to talk alone."

"Yes."

After those people responded respectfully, they quickly retreated from the room, leaving only me and the man.

The man made no intention of getting up. He just picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks, dipped it in the sauce in the bowl beside him, and put it in his mouth, looking intoxicated.

"Doomsday merchants are really rare."

The man said gently while chewing the piece of meat in his mouth.

"A long time ago, I heard from other strongholds that there was a very powerful businessman who exchanged Coke for supplies in various strongholds."

"Today, I finally met you."

I pulled over a chair and sat down opposite the man very naturally. My mind was quickly calculating how to kill this man as quickly as possible, and I replied indifferently.

"Everyone has his own way of living. You like to get together, but I like to wander around."

The man twitched the corner of his mouth, stood up slightly, stretched out his hand to me across the table, and introduced himself.

"Hello, I'm Liu Yong."

I reached out and held his hand, thinking carefully for a moment before replying.

"Hello, my name is Su Li."

After a polite handshake, Liu Yong and I sat down again. Liu Yong picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and chuckled.

"Mr. Su, have you eaten?"

I glanced at the slices of meat on the plate, shook my head slowly, and answered in a low voice.

"I don't have a penchant for eating human flesh."

Liu Yong's face froze, and then a chilling light flashed in his eyes, as if he had discovered some interesting toy.

"Mr. Su is really interesting. He said he doesn't eat human flesh, but he can tell at a glance that this is human flesh."

"Why, are you tired of eating?"

I really have never eaten human flesh. I have always been the one being eaten. This obviously cannot be an answer, so I answered perfunctorily.

"That's it."

The Twenty-Seventh Death Pervert (Part 2)

"Actually, I don't like eating human flesh either."

Liu Yong picked up a piece of meat very seriously and commented like a gourmet.

"In terms of freshness, it is not as good as fish, and in terms of fragrance, it is not as good as beef."

"Instead, it has a strange astringent taste that needs to be suppressed by dipping sauce."

As he spoke, Liu Yong put the piece of meat into his mouth and chewed it bit by bit. Seeing that I didn't say anything, he shook his head gently and said with some amusement.

"Mr. Su, what kind of rule do you think will prevent the people from having the urge to riot in this world?"

Without waiting for my answer, Liu Yong's eyes fixed, and he tapped the meat slices on the plate with his chopsticks. He leaned forward slightly, as if he wanted to whisper something, and spoke slowly in a low voice.

“It’s fear.”

"It's the kind of fear that makes them shudder when they look at you."

"It's the fear that they will give up the idea once they think about the consequences of the riot failing."

I glanced at the slices of meat on his plate and said thoughtfully.

"So, you eat human flesh just to make people afraid of you?"

Liu Yong raised his eyebrows, leaned back slightly, and nodded.

"Yes, I want to make them understand that they are just a piece of meat in my mouth."

"Whether I can survive depends on how big my stomach is."

What a stupid idea! I was too lazy to argue with him and just looked at his feet where there was a food bowl for pet dogs. I suddenly became curious and asked.

"Do you have a dog? Why can't I see your dog?"

Liu Yong's pupils shrank slightly, and his expression changed for a moment, but then returned to normal. He glanced at the food bowl at his feet and said in a low voice.

"Yes, I once had a dog."

Liu Yong put down his chopsticks, kicked the food bowl aside, and spoke calmly.

“It’s a very interesting story.”

"My parents died in a car accident before the end of the world."

"I was so desperate at the time that I couldn't accept the fact, so I foolishly wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the lake."

Liu Yong narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze became a little vague, he put his hand on his nose and spoke slowly.

"I always remember that the lake water was very dirty and choking. I could feel the dirty water rushing into my mouth and nose, making it difficult for me to breathe."

"Do you know what that feels like? My eyes go dark. No, I feel like there's nothing in front of me, as if my eyes were dug out and I can't see anything."

"All of a sudden, I didn't want to die anymore. I was scared and I started to struggle like crazy."

"Later, I woke up on the shore and there was a stray dog ​​licking my face."

There was something complicated in Liu Yong's eyes, I don't know if it was to hide his emotions, he smiled at me and said.

"Isn't it funny? It was actually a big stray dog ​​that saved me."

"I, who survived the disaster, regarded the stray dog ​​as my relative and benefactor, and kept it by my side all the time."

"I always feel that it is my only friend and the most important thing to me."

I listened quietly, and like a qualified listener of a story, I asked him a question at this obviously turning point.

"and after?"

Liu Yong did not answer immediately, but raised his head and looked at the roof, as if he was unwilling to meet my eyes.

"call……"

He let out a long breath, then continued speaking in a daze.

"Then, the zombie virus broke out, and I kept running with it."

"Run, run, run, run."

"We ran until we were exhausted and we had eaten all our dry food."

"At that time, I was very hungry. Really hungry."

"So I killed it and lived on its meat."

"The last time it licked my hand was when I had the rope around its neck."

Liu Yong finally turned his gaze towards me and spoke to me in a very serious manner.

“I cried so hard, but I still killed it. At that moment, I finally understood one thing.”

Liu Yong paused, then spoke word by word.

"There is nothing in this world that is irreplaceable to us."

“So, we can give up everything.”

Is that even human nature?

I didn't comment, but in this short story, I finally understood Liu Yong's true nature.

He died once, so others are more afraid of death. He killed his closest friend with his own hands, so for him, there is nothing he cannot give up.

Liu Yong stood up gently, his fingers fell on the table, and as he moved, he gently stroked the table.

"From that moment on, I decided to live a good life."

"What I don't have, I will get. What I want, I will get even if I have to rob it."

Liu Yong walked slowly to my side. I leaned over and whispered in my ear.

"In this stronghold, I met a woman whose appearance I liked very much, but she was the wife of a friend of mine."

"So I killed her husband, chopped him into pieces right in front of her, and buried him in the field."

"She became my woman, and I could do whatever I wanted with her."

I listened quietly to Liu Yong's story. I didn't want to express any opinion. We are all bugs in the gutter. Some people look up at the stars, while others look down at the stinky water under them and call it the universe.

This world is so ridiculous. Some people see mountains as mountains and water as water, while some people see mountains as shit and water as shit.

I swear, I really want to break Liu Yong’s neck right now, but I can’t.

Liu Yong stretched out his hand, patted my shoulder gently, and said with a smile.

"Sorry, I was so excited that I forgot the real thing for a moment."

As he spoke, Liu Yong pulled me up. I suppressed my disgust and followed him to the window, looking at the ruins in the distance.

Liu Yong pointed at the ruins in the distance, narrowed his eyes slightly, and whispered to me.

"You've also seen that some idiots tried to challenge my bottom line and wasted a lot of my ammunition."

"Although I'm not seriously injured, I'm in a bit of a pickle right now. Brother, you're a doomsday businessman."

"So, I want you to help me get some goods."

I suddenly became alert. This Liu Yong seemed very abnormal from the beginning. I thought he wanted to swallow my Coke, but now it seems that he wanted something else.

"You want weapons?"

In this world, the most scarce thing besides food is probably the increasingly scarce guns.

However, Liu Yong was different from what I thought. He shook his head slightly at me and said with some pride.

"I am not short of arms. You may not believe it, but my arms reserves are outrageous."

I frowned slightly, unsure how much truth Liu Yong said, so I could only follow his words and continue asking.

"Then...what do you want?"
