As I spoke, I stepped aside, threw the pistol on the ground, pointed at Zhang Dong who was gradually regaining his strength, and spoke softly.

"Someone should know what to do next, right?"

Silence, or deathly silence. The looks of many people have changed, but they still don't have the courage to take the first step.

Long-term oppression and devastation have made them lose their blood and courage. It seems that as long as they have a breath left, they can endure this painful life.

However, enduring helplessly does not mean that they have truly forgotten everything they have suffered.

After a long silence, a young man suddenly took a step forward, picked up the pistol on the ground tremblingly, and aimed at Zhang Dong who had already climbed up from the ground.

The young man looked very bad, pale without a trace of blood, as if he had suddenly fallen seriously ill. He was sweating profusely, and white hot air was slowly rising into the sky in the cold winter wind.

Under extreme tension, the young man began to breathe heavily. He held the pistol but was unable to pull the trigger.

Domestication is the process of changing the wild nature of animals, making them obedient and easy to drive, but sometimes, humans may be easier to domesticate than animals.

Because we are smart and complex, we understand the danger and we have memories. When a person lowers his head and kneels on the ground, the oppression and fear of the past and future will be deeply engraved in his bones.

This may be what we call aftereffect, or it may be a psychological shadow.

As domesticated people, we will be afraid of a person who is unarmed and has lost the battle, because this person has left a damnable mark on us.

The young man was trembling, but he was unable to pull the trigger. Zhang Dong naturally noticed this. As a former gangster boss, he understood why.

So Zhang Dong stood up, deliberately made a ferocious expression, looked at the young man, and said with gritted teeth.

"Damn, do you have the guts?"

"As long as you dare to shoot, I guarantee that everyone related to you, including you, will die completely."

"you dare……"

Before Zhang Dong could finish his words, a man suddenly rushed out from the crowd and ran straight towards him. Like a wild beast, he bit Zhang Dong's neck with his teeth.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

Zhang Dong's screams mixed with the roars of wild animals. He struggled hard, trying to push away his daughter who was biting his neck. He punched the woman's head hard with his fists, but the woman refused to let go no matter what.

Such a sudden change caught me off guard. I couldn't help but walk towards the young man and asked in a low voice.

"who is she?"

The young man also had a look of shock on his face, and he slowly lowered his hand holding the pistol. He looked at the crazy woman and murmured in a low voice.

"Aunt Ning, everyone calls her Aunt Ning."

As the young man finished speaking, a young woman came out from the crowd, looked at the woman biting Zhang Dong, and said in a hoarse voice.

"At first, she gave Zhang Dong a bowl of rice."

"But later, Zhang Dong and a group of people raped her daughter. Her daughter didn't survive. Since then, Aunt Ning has been crazy."

As she spoke, the young woman reached out and snatched the pistol from the young man's hand. With tears in her eyes, she strode forward and put the pistol directly against Zhang Dong's right leg, as if she was afraid that she would miss the target.

The young woman bit her lip, pulled the trigger suddenly, and screamed in a shrill voice.

"He's only five years old, give me back my child!!"

With a gunshot, a cloud of blood suddenly burst out from Zhang Dong's right leg. As Zhang Dong screamed, the young woman threw away her pistol, pounced on him, and began to bite him with her teeth.

Suddenly, the crowd surged, and everyone with red eyes strode forward and pounced on Zhang Dong. They did not use any weapons, but just bit him with their teeth and poked Zhang Dong's eyes with their fingers, as if they wanted to eat him alive.

In just a blink of an eye, Zhang Dong's figure was instantly submerged in the crowd, and his screams gradually became weaker until they completely died down.

People seemed to have become a group of zombies, surrounding Zhang Dong, not wanting him to die immediately, and torturing him with all means possible.

I looked at this scene in silence. I didn't want them to do this.

The execution of Zhang Dong should be more ceremonial, announcing the restoration of order.

However, I did not stop these people from thinking about it.

Anger and hatred, under Zhang Dong's oppression, they need such catharsis. Only in this way can they forget the past and live again.

After a long time, the setting sun sank completely into the horizon, and the sunset glow dissipated the last trace of afterglow.

People have stood up again, standing quietly behind me without saying a word, and where Zhang Dong was before, there was only a pile of minced meat and torn clothes.

The domineering Zhang Dong ended up being eaten up by the people he had oppressed in the past. It is a really difficult ending to evaluate.

At least, cook it before eating.

When this thought flashed through my mind, I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, then I shook my head and smiled bitterly.

I seem to be getting more and more strange, and I actually have such bizarre thoughts.

Everyone stood behind me, seemingly waiting for my next order. I looked up at Zhang Dong's lackeys. They were already frightened by Zhang Dong's fate and collapsed to the ground with pale faces.

"Tie them up and give them a quick death."

"Stop eating people."

As soon as the words fell, everyone rushed forward, quickly tied up those lackeys and confiscated the guns in their hands.

At this time, the young man who had held the gun before came forward uneasily, came close to me, and spoke softly.

"that……"

"Just call me Su Li."

"Mr. Su... Mr. Su, Zhang Dong has more than just these few men. The rest may have gone to the armory. What should we do?"

I glanced at the young man next to me. He was still as timid and uneasy as at the beginning. I reached out and patted his shoulder with a gentle smile.

"Let's boil some hot water and take a good bath."

"Wash the blood off your body."

Hearing this, the young man was stunned and uttered a puzzled "Ah?". I waved my hand and said with a smile.

"Bring some people to the warehouse in a while, and have everyone take out the food from the warehouse so that we can have a good meal."

The young man spoke anxiously and somewhat panicked.

"But...but, there are many of Zhang Dong's men there."

I strode forward, not looking at the young man behind me, but just waved at him gently and smiled softly.

"Don't worry, they'll leave it to me."

After saying that, I quickened my pace. The wind blew past, blowing my hair, and a slight smell of sweat rushed into my nose.

Maybe I should take a shower too.

In the evening breeze, I came to the door of the armory alone. Just as the young man said, this place was already occupied by a group of people. They were holding guns, looking at me with fear in their eyes, and their bodies were shaking.

I looked at them and slowly took a step forward.

The next moment, there was a burst of gunfire and a dazzling light instantly obscured my vision.

……

A moment later, I was sitting among the corpses, holding my chest which had not yet healed, grimacing in pain.

At this time, the moonlight was shining, I faced the moonlight, smiled bitterly, and murmured in a low voice.

"Don't try to be a hero like this anymore."

"It fucking hurts."

Chapter 63 Sweet Potato

After a long time, the young man came to the warehouse as I instructed, moved the food out, and then had a party all night.

On winter nights, a big bonfire was lit at the Porcupine Stronghold, and people sang and danced, with their washed faces filled with the joy of rebirth.

I sat far away, not participating in it, looking at the bonfire with some complicated feelings. In the flames, those almost burnt corpses seemed to be staring at me.

Zhang Dong is a scumbag, but not all the people in this stronghold are innocent. I can only see the shallowest layer of good and evil. People's hearts are hidden in their stomachs, and everything is just self-consolation after all.

There is no result for good or evil, and the so-called natural cycle is ultimately just a joke.

I don’t know if I am doing the right thing, but I realized a long time ago that what I am doing now is just like masturbating, which is just satisfying myself.

The next morning, I left the Porcupine Stronghold. Before leaving, I told the remaining people in the Porcupine Stronghold that the people from the Corpse God Cult would come to pick them up in a few days.

If they are willing, they can go with me. If not, they can stay and become the new Zhang Dong, and then die in my hands.

I told them very seriously that no matter who becomes the next Zhang Dong, I will chase him to the ends of the earth, pull out his tendons and bones, and torture him cruelly until he dies.

"Some changes must happen in this world."

"No matter how many people I kill who want to continue to live the same life as before, I will never get tired of it."

“Because I enjoy doing this.”

These were the last few words I said to them before I left. As for what happened afterwards, I no longer cared. I believed that even if there was really another Zhang Dong hiding among them, they would not have the courage to take real action.

And things happened just as I expected. A few days later, the members of the Corpse God Cult successfully took over the entire Porcupine stronghold and took all the guns and people inside back to the Corpse God Cult's stronghold.

I didn't go to other strongholds to do similar things. I believe that what happened in the Porcupine stronghold is enough to start a real internal conflict in other strongholds.

The stronghold leaders who once dismissed the news that I had planted a traitor, after learning that the Porcupine Stronghold was suddenly destroyed and the guns and ammunition were all in the hands of the Corpse God Cult, they naturally began to believe that I really had a traitor.

So, the leaders of the stronghold began to investigate. Since they relied on violence to maintain their rule, their investigations into suspects were terribly simple.

There is no human rights in this world, and things like forced confessions are nothing. So with everyone feeling insecure, those strongholds naturally began to engage in real internal strife and fell into chaos.

As for the Corpse God Cult, when other strongholds were caught in chaos, they began to build new warehouses and houses, preparing to receive supplies and population from other strongholds.

It was a sunny day and I had nothing to do, so I found a roof, spread a blanket, lay on it comfortably, and basked in the sun.

The sun is warm and comfortable, and it is a perfect day for sleeping.

It would be nice if no one bothered me.

“This is a great place to sleep in.”

Cangwu's voice suddenly sounded behind me. I curled my lips, turned over and ignored him, but I obviously overestimated the quality of this guy Cangwu.

Seeing that I ignored him, this guy Cangwu actually sat next to me, pushed my body in a very uncivilized manner, and spoke in his loud voice.

"What kind of person are you? I took the initiative to talk to you, why did you react like this?"

I sighed, knowing that I couldn't avoid this annoying guy, so I had to sit up and stare at him with dissatisfaction without saying a word.

This guy Cangwu didn't care about my dissatisfaction at all. Instead, he curled his lips, revealing an irritating smile, and said with great satisfaction.

"Okay, we can start chatting."

I knew that I couldn't make this annoying guy leave before Cangwu was satisfied, so I could only sigh helplessly.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

When Cangwu heard this, he looked into the distance with a calm expression and spoke softly.

"It's nothing important. I just want to talk to you, my kind."

I was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say, but Cangwu didn't need me to provide any topics, so he started talking first.

"You did a good job on this plan, but I can't figure it out. This is not really your style."

"In my opinion, with a personality like yours, you should limit casualties in every stronghold as much as possible and let everyone who deserves to live survive."

Hearing this, I was stunned, then lowered my brows, and after a moment of silence, I slowly spoke.

"That's a shame, I'm not that great of a person."

“At the same time, not a very smart person either.”

"If I go, more people might die. It's better to let nature take its course."

Cangwu glanced at me with a strange look in his eyes, and then started talking about another topic.

"Su Li, do you know why I followed you?"

I raised my eyebrows and answered without thinking.

"Because you want to find a long-term meal ticket?"

Cangwu smiled when he heard this and said very calmly.

"I don't deny this, but there is a more important reason."

"Because you are different from me. You don't care about anything like me."
