The vast land is like a wash of blue sky and thick white snow.

The land stretches as far as the eye can see, a mess of crooked shacks.

Three or two skinny children were lying outside a shack made of rags.

He stuck his butt out and dug into the snow, not knowing what he was digging.

A woman whose face could not be seen clearly was sitting in a dark shack with her eyes blank, holding a baby in her arms.

The baby is silent and does not know whether it is dead or alive.

A man wrapped in a torn cotton-padded jacket emerged from the shack, lazily facing the snow, undoing his belt and peeing.

A girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old climbed out right behind him.

The clothes on his body were not tightly wrapped yet, so he stood beside him and looked at him timidly.

After the man finished urinating, he turned around to see the girl, yawned and cursed.

"Damn it, are you afraid that I'll run away? Take it!"

After saying that, he threw the girl a ball of food whose color could no longer be seen clearly.

The girl hurriedly caught it, stuffed it into her mouth and devoured it!

I slapped my chest while swallowing, and I almost rolled my eyes while still stuffing it into my mouth.

The man looked at it and smiled.

Turning around, he saw Li Wu and Li Wu standing nearby looking at them.

Suddenly, his face darkened.

I wanted to scold them, but I saw Li Wu and Qingxiazi's noble demeanor and their sleek fur cloaks.

The man had no choice but to endure it.

He left muttering.

The little girl who was devouring food noticed the two of them and quietly pulled apart her collar.

The eyes of the children digging in the snow also lit up.

The snow stopped plowing and rushed over to surround the two of them.

He didn't dare to touch them with his hands, but he raised his head and shouted in a hoarse voice.

"You two gentlemen, reward us for stuttering!"

There was a black scab mixed with snot and blood under the nose, and there was mud between the fingernails.

A skinny old man crawled out from nowhere and knelt tremblingly on the snow, begging.

"Master, I'm going to starve to death. Please do me a favor and reward me with two bites of food!"

The wind carrying snow particles blew by.

Scraping through the lifeless shack, sweeping away the rancid smell of urine.

The old man shivered visibly.

Li Wu stared blankly.

After being at ease for so long, he has somewhat forgotten the tragic image of Gougou Village back then.

There was another gust of cold wind.

There are piles of straw mats on both sides of the road.

Several of them were blown open.

Revealing the corpse wrapped inside!

Li Wu stared blankly for a few seconds.

Turning around, he asked Qingxiazi.

"Is this what you want me to see?"

Qingxiazi looked back at him deeply.

"right."

After speaking, he added something that Li Wu didn't quite understand.

"Tianzi Mountain has been high up in the sky for too long. It's time to open your eyes and take a look at the world."

***

Seeing that Li Wu and Qingxiazi were talking to themselves and ignored them.

The children looked at each other and dispersed.

The light in the old man's eyes also dimmed.

Turning around, he wanted to get into the short shack next to him.

But he didn't expect to get into the shack before he could.

A few men, eyes red with hunger and stumbling on their feet, emerged from nowhere with sticks in hand!

The leader took a few steps forward, grabbed the old man by the collar, and threw him to the ground!

Then, take a few deep breaths and yell.

"Brothers, find me out!"

So, the men behind him rushed forward!

Get into the old man's shack!

The old man was so anxious that his voice broke and he shouted.

"What are you doing, what are you doing, what are you going to do!"

He tried to get up, but was pinned down to the ground by the leading man with a stick.

The old man's sparse and gray hair was blowing in the wind.

The terrified screams of children came from the shack.

Immediately afterwards, the men carried two four or five-year-old children, who were kicking their legs in the air and struggling for life, out of the shack.

"Grandpa! Grandpa!" the children cried.

The old man raised his hands with difficulty and bowed repeatedly.

"Strong men, I only have these two treasures left. Please be kind and let them go! If you want to eat, just eat me. I still have a few taels of meat left on my body, which can feed the strong men. Miles!"

The leading man laughed.

"You are old and rough, nothing can compare to the tenderness of your baby bumps!"

The men holding the two children also laughed.

Laughter and the cries of children spread around.

The people around him only dared to huddle up in the shack with their heads down.

Li Wu couldn't believe what he heard.

eat human! ?

"Stop!" he shouted.

The leading man looked at the two of them, and the smile on his face faded.

"Two gentlemen, although I don't know who they are, but everyone has their own way of living. If you shouldn't interfere, I hope you don't interfere."

Li Wu suppressed his anger, his face was expressionless and his voice was slow.

"What if we insist on taking care of it?"

The leading man looked at him deeply.

Li Wu looked at him, their eyes like a deep pool.

After a long time, the leading man's hand loosened.

The old man hurriedly broke free from his grasp and climbed up, falling several times.

The two children were also released, rolling and crawling to the ground, like young birds rushing to their grandfather in the forest.

"grandfather!"

They cried until their faces were covered with snot bubbles.

The leading man hugged Li Wu and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Li Wu stopped him.

Some other men couldn't help it and pointed at him with sticks.

"Don't bully others too much!"

Li Wu ignored him and walked over to the leading man.

Open your palms.

There are a few pieces of silver in it.

he said slowly.

"Cannibalism is something only animals can do. I don't care what you did in the past. Since I have let these three people go today, I will never do such a thing again in the future that harms the morality of my descendants."

The leading man looked at the one tael of silver and then looked up at him.

After a second or two of silence, he knelt down with a "pop"!

"Sir!" the man said, "If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to survive, who would do such an immoral thing like being thrown into a frying pan after death!"

"This tael of silver is enough for us brothers to eat for three days at most. There are still many mouths waiting behind us!"

"Master, if you really want to help us, then help us to the end! Give us a way to survive! I kowtow to you!"

After saying that, he banged his head in the snow.

The other men also threw away their wooden sticks and kowtowed with a bang.

At some point, people came out of many shacks.

They stood there without speaking, just looking at Li Wu quietly.

Look around.

There are thousands of them.

The sun shines coldly on the earth.

It shines brightly on these filthy, broken-down people.

Compared with Li Wu, who was fair-skinned, tender-faced and well-dressed, they seemed to be different species.

Li Wu looked back at Qingxiazi.

Qingxiazi was also looking at him.

The two looked deeply into each other's eyes.

A few seconds later.

Li Wu made up his mind, turned around, and spoke loudly to everyone under the clear sky.

"Okay, in that case, I will give you a way to survive!"
