Epoch of Twilight

Luo Yuan kept hitting the air with his fists, and the air exploded like firecrackers.

Sun Xiaowu, who was standing at the entrance of the passage, looked at the shadow of a fist that could only be seen with burning eyes, swallowed his saliva, and only when Luo Yuan stopped panting, he respectfully handed over the towel .

"What happened outside just now, why is it so noisy?" Luo Yuan took the towel and wiped his sweat.

This young man who slammed the door angrily before seemed to worship force very much. He was brave and reckless, but he was simple-minded. Ever since he saw Luo Yuan's strength, he began to actively move closer to Luo Yuan. Luo Yuan certainly didn't He would refuse to come in, so he ordered him to do some things to inquire about the news.

"It's dead again. Those starving ghosts fought so fiercely. They risked their lives for a bite to eat. They even trampled a baby to death during the fight just now. It's too tragic." Sun Xiaowu said in a low voice. Said: "However, no one dares to provoke us. Many people shun us when they see us."

At this time, five days have passed since Luo Yuan entered the air-raid shelter. As the food was running out day by day, the calm air-raid shelter began to be full of restless emotions. Every day, people were injured and died in the battle, and the air was full of The stench of corpses.

"What about Su Jianhao and the others?" Luo Yuan asked.

"There seems to be no movement recently, and I seem to be afraid. Except for Huang Zhongchan and others, I haven't seen anyone else these days. I also found out the information you asked me to inquire about. Su Jianhao used to be from Xing'an, Anpu District, Hedong City. The boss of the club, who gradually cleared his name a few years ago, heard that he had several lives in his hands."

Luo Yuan nodded, with a thoughtful look on his face, and after a while, he raised his head and said: "Go and tell those people outside that if anyone wants to go with me, we will leave at noon."

"Are we leaving the air-raid shelter?" Sun Xiaowu asked in surprise.

He nodded, unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a sip carefully, and continued punching. Everything that should be said has been said. As for the indistinguishable form, it is entirely up to them whether to listen or not.

The fierce fist wind made Sun Xiaowu's clothes heave and his skin was a little tingling, he looked at the powerful and inhuman Luo Yuan, and gradually calmed down: "I understand, I'll go and talk right away. "

Luo Yuan didn't speak, and continued to punch.

…………

"Why do you have to go? It's so dangerous outside. There are mutant beasts eating people everywhere. We finally got to the air-raid shelter. Why do we have to go out?" A young woman's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she hurriedly said.

"Yeah, Xiao Wu, tell Boss Luo, why take risks? Although the environment here is a bit worse, it's safe. Where will we go after we go out? What should we eat?"

"Why don't you understand that the food here is not unlimited. Now many people are already hungry, and the food will soon run out. We have to go out sooner or later, so we might as well go out earlier." Sun Xiaowu said loudly.

"I understand this too, but I don't want to go out anymore. I have a heart attack, and I really can't stand the external stimulation. In fact, what can I do if I leave? I might die as soon as I go out. I can live here at least for a few days. , I don't intend to leave anymore." A middle-aged man sighed.

Everyone can understand such a simple truth, but if there is a choice between temporary happiness and future danger, more people will choose the former. The future is illusory, and only the present is real. He really didn't want to go out. Compared with the outside world, this place is like a paradise. It would be good to stay even one more day. Thinking of the thrilling night, his heart speeded up suddenly.

"I don't want to go out either. I'm fat and I can't run fast. Going out with you will only slow me down." A fat middle-aged man lost his mind for a while and shook his head.

"If... Boss Luo, if you guarantee our safety, we will leave." At this time, another young man in blue sportswear whispered.

Before Sun Xiaowu could speak, Huo Dong deliberately showed it, and said loudly with a sneer: "It's really funny, as if someone begged you to get out. You are Boss Luo, you gave him money, or saved his life. Say no If it sounds nice, you can still breathe and have enough to eat every day, all thanks to Boss Luo. It’s fine if you don’t think about making progress and working hard to repay Boss Luo, but you still want to do everything possible to drag him back. You are ungrateful and have a conscience. have eaten!"

"Don't speak too harshly. It's your freedom to lick other people's asses, but don't use me as a stepping stone. Since Boss Luo let us go, we must be responsible for our safety, otherwise who will follow him!" He blushed After distinguishing, disdainful eyes came from around.

"Ren Qi, can you kill mutant beasts, or can you kill people? Seeing that you are white and tender, I'm afraid you don't even dare to kill chickens. What else can you do besides selling your ass? You really look down on yourself for a waste like you " Huo Dong said disdainfully, he still had some traces of acting at the beginning, but this time he was really amused, he didn't expect that he really had such a superb quality that he couldn't distinguish the situation.

The young man named Ren Qi was so angry that he was trembling all over, and when his forehead became hot, he rushed up, but he was tripped by someone, and fell firmly to the ground. The people around dispersed one after another, and no one was willing to help him for a long time.

A girl hesitated for a moment, and walked over to help him up, but he pushed him away. The girl took a few steps back, almost fell to the ground, and was about to cry.

"Ning Xiaoran doesn't need you to pretend to be a good person and hypocrisy. Don't you all want to see my jokes? Don't you all say that I am overwhelmed? Just wait and see, there will always be times when you regret it." He swept his eyes resentfully. Circle, as if to remember everyone, then forcefully pushed away the onlookers, turned around and walked outside.

…………

Luo Yuan wiped the knife and reinserted it into the scabbard.

The luggage to pack is relatively small, except for a backpack and a tent, it is already all the supplies.

Originally, Luo Yuan didn't plan to bring a tent, but considering that it could be used in case of an accident, he brought it by the way.

The tent looks big when it is disassembled, but it is the size of a luggage bag when folded, and it is light in texture, which does not affect the movement. What's more, there is not much distance. If everything goes well, they will arrive at Jingyue Community in at most two or three hours.

There were twenty or thirty people when they came, but there were only five when they left.

In addition to Huo Dong, Sun Xiaowu also has a middle-aged Chen Xianfeng who is about 30 years old with a dull expression. There are also two women. Luo Yuan has a good memory. She is pretty, and Sun Xiaowu secretly looks at her from time to time, his eyes dodging.

At that time, the plaster covered her face, and she couldn't see her face clearly. After washing away the dirt, she realized that she was a beautiful woman.

The other one looks young, about eighteen or nineteen years old, petite and quiet like a student.

The people around looked at these people with complicated eyes, with a hint of numbness and... pity in their eyes.

"Only these people?" Luo Yuan asked.

"They don't want to leave." Huo Dong said.

Luo Yuan glanced at it, and the eyes of the people nearby were avoided one after another. He sighed in his heart, everyone has their own choice, who can know who is right and who is wrong, maybe staying here is the best for them. Good choice.

"I choose the road by myself, let's go!" Luo Yuan took a deep breath and said.

The people around watched these people gradually leave and disappeared into the long line of comrades in the air-raid shelter. For some reason, they felt lost and felt a little bit regretful.

……………

Su Jianhao frowned tightly, smoking one cigarette after another. In just a few days, he lost a lot of weight, and he seemed to be a few years older. In the past few days, he was awakened by a nightmare, and he always felt a chill in his throat from time to time, which almost drove him crazy. In the past few days, he didn't even go out the door. On the surface, it was because his son had a strange high fever, but in fact He was really scared, and he didn't even dare to see her.

If it was in the past, when his blood was rushing, he would have already gone all out. At that time, anyone who mentioned the Xing'an Society would be terrified.

When I was young, I was not afraid of wearing shoes with bare feet, but when I became rich, I started to be afraid of death. The previous aggressiveness has long since faded with the passage of time. In the past few years, my career has grown bigger and bigger, especially going ashore. After being cleansed, he has become more and more like a businessman. Start to calculate the gains and losses of interests, learn to compromise and give in.

At this time, the door was pushed open with a bang, Su Jianhao was shocked and almost stood up, seeing that it was Huang Zhongchan, he frowned slightly, and said displeasedly: "What the hell, how many times have I told you that you have to knock on the door when you come in."

"They're gone...they finally..." Huang Zhongchan didn't hear it at all, his face was full of excitement, his body was shaking non-stop, halfway through the sentence, he suddenly realized that his tone was wrong, and abruptly swallowed the rest of the sentence After falling down, he almost choked, took a breath before continuing: "They finally... escaped, should we go after them?"

"Leaving?" Su Jianhao didn't react for a moment, he patted the handrail vigorously, and vented: "They leave when they want, come when they want! These scumbags have been dancing happily these days, and more than a dozen died Well, once a person dies, he just throws it away, making the air-raid shelter stinky, if I hadn’t been busy these days, I’d have knocked them out a long time ago.”

"More than a dozen, it seems that only one person was killed." Huang Zhongchan turned around mentally, and the boss seemed to have misunderstood it. However, as Su Jianhao's confidant for many years, Huang Zhongchan has already figured out his character. Knowing that he can only follow his words at this time, Huang Zhongchan quickly said with a flattering smile: "Brother Hao, you should have stood up a long time ago. Who will still be able to stand up by then?" If you dare to jump out, I will shoot him for you with one shot."

"By the way, whoever wants to leave is really courageous, and he is not afraid of being eaten by mutant beasts." After venting a bit, Su Jianhao calmed down and said lightly.

"It's that murderous demon who left just now."

"Murderer..." Su Jianhao was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly, the ash in his hand shook to the ground: "You said murderer, what about Luo?"

"Boss Luo, no, that Luo Yuan, he just left." Huang Zhongchan said excitedly again.

"He reacts quickly." Su Jianhao raised his eyebrows, sneered, and took a deep breath of cigarette.

In a blink of an eye, Huang Zhongchan felt that the former Brother Hao had returned, his whole body was full of vigor, and the brows that were originally tightly locked were also greatly relaxed, and even every wrinkle exuded a joyful brilliance. The dull feeling was swept away, he quickly withdrew his gaze, lowered his head slightly, and deeply covered the gaze in his eyes and the thoughts in his heart.

"How long has it been?" Su Jianhao said.

"Ten minutes, I opened the door for them." Huang Zhongchan said with an apologetic smile, then worried that the boss might misunderstand, and explained: "Originally, that Luo... the bastard was going to cut the lock, and you also know that he has a lot of locks. A sharp sword."

"Forget it, it's not your fault, don't lose your life for no reason." Su Jianhao said generously.

"Brother Xie Hao is sympathetic, but there are still some people who have not left. Do you want to send them food in the future?" Huang Zhongchan said in a deliberate tone.

"Food delivery, grass, are you an idiot? You really think my food is falling from the sky!" Su Jianhao said emotionally: "It's good if you don't leave, I want them to spit out everything that ate me, my The food is not that delicious."

When that murderous demon was around, he cared about the other party's threats, so he naturally offered food and drink, but he had already left, and if he gave them food, wouldn't it mean that Su Jianhao was completely afraid of the other party, which made the people who followed him No matter how you look at it, it really is a charity. Without deterrence, people's hearts will disperse. Not only can he not feed them, but he also wants to wash away the shame on them.

"I understand." Huang Zhongchan understood: "Do you want to call them over?"

‘Forget it, this is too flattering to them, let’s starve them for a few days first, if they have nothing to eat, we can go and grab them, now there are too many people in the air-raid shelter, and people’s hearts are mixed, so we can clean up a batch of them. At that time, we will clean up the mess, settle all the disobedient ones, and take advantage of the situation to collect the food. At that time, we will be able to completely control the air-raid shelter. In troubled times, whoever controls the food is the boss, unless you want to starve to death. "Su Jianhao said coldly.

"Will this make things worse, and it will be hard to clean up in the end!" At that time, I don't know how many people will be killed or injured. Even after experiencing many dark sides, Huang Zhongchan still feels a little cold all over.

"As long as there is a gun, there is nothing to be afraid of, the society is in chaos now, and no one will care if everyone here is dead." Su Jianhao said disdainfully.
