Chapter 83
Every day, people come and go in the fire, there will be a plague for a while, a group of sores for a while, and a few dead people stay in the base and feel bored, sneak out of the barrier, and within two days they are found with only a clean pair of clothes. Skeleton skeletons scattered somewhere deep in the forest. Nie Renyan and Ye Zhao are relatively better. After all, they have unattainable spiritual power and are extremely powerful. It is not difficult to deal with problems that ordinary people cannot do. But for the Master, such a day would have been almost debilitating! I have seen chaos, but I have never seen such chaos, it is a crazy world.
"I don't understand. It's not just one or two people who sneaked out to die outside. Why are there still people going to die one after another?" The master jumped on his feet, his face was full of anger, with a look of extreme anger and regret , apparently for the people who sneak out and get attacked, anyway, for their lives anyway.
"People are always very complicated. In a stable society, there are still so many people who know the consequences and risk themselves to commit crimes. What's more, in this chaotic situation, the extreme environment can easily distort people's minds and produce some abnormal behaviors. Extreme thinking." Luo Xiaochen said with rare seriousness, "and the current environment is actually very abnormal. Outside the base, everyone can watch all kinds of ancient beasts come and go, and every part of the forest may be in an extremely dangerous situation, but So far, the base is safe and sound. Except for food shortages, there is basically nothing that can endanger life. The contrast between the two environments is too strong. Under such conflicts for a long time, some people will do something out of the ordinary..."
His chattering nature appeared, and he explained eloquently. Of course, if he could put down the chopsticks and rice bowls in his hands all the time, without staring at the dishes on the table with glowing eyes, he would appear more vivid.
In the case of food shortages, the meaning of every meal to people has become very important. Nie Renyan felt that the cooking method of the cafeteria at the base was a bit wasteful, so he directly bought some ingredients from the cafeteria, and went back to the house where he and Ye Zhao lived to prepare for himself. Doing it is to coax Ye Zhao to be happy in a disguised form, and to strive for leniency, otherwise, with his thin-skinned and outrageously awkward personality, Nie Renyan will have to wait a long time before he can count on the next meal.
His starting point is to coax Ye Zhao into bed through the daily meal time for the two of them.
However, the idea is very full, and the reality is very skinny. Ye Zhao called Luo Xiaochen and Xia Zhiming who had eaten in the cafeteria for a long time, and even the master who didn't eat much came to talk to them about the current situation.
Nie Renyan was resentful at the beginning, but seeing that Ye Zhao seemed to have a better appetite when there were many people, and the degree of awkwardness was also restrained. Even when he heard Luo Xiaochen chatting just now, he probably didn't realize it for a while, and subconsciously gave it to him. Nie Renyan picked up a dish with chopsticks. Nie Renyan's mood suddenly brightened, looking at the dishes in the bowl, he almost began to think about the next way to get Ye Zhaoguai to bed next time.
Therefore, a beast without integrity is always a typical element that is not afraid of death.
"If you lose your life, can you simply describe it in two words?!" The master's expression turned even worse when he thought of what he saw in the morning, "When the old man rushed over, he happened to see two A dog and a woman are standing there, the three of them are out of breath, the woman is sucking one person's brain, and the other two brains are also open, it must have been sucked, the dog is squatting Where is the head gnawing, and there are several Gu carvings hovering above, that kind of scene is really terrible! I haven’t experienced this kind of stimulation for many years! It’s just—"
Before the master finished speaking, he felt that his sleeve was pulled twice, and he turned his head murderously to the stone who was pulling his sleeve: "Presumptuous! What are you doing by pulling the sleeve of the teacher?! The robe of the teacher But new!"
Shi Shi gestured to the people sitting around the table eating, the master followed his gaze, and found that the few people who were originally attracted by Nie Renyan's cooking skills and ate with gusto, were all frozen except for the real foodie Luo Xiaochen. On his face, the chopsticks in his hand stopped in mid-air, staring at the master with complicated expressions, among them Ye Zhao, who was always fastidious about eating, froze the most.
The master was at a loss: "Go ahead and eat, the old man is just pouring out bitter water, you can just listen while eating, don't look at me like that."
Everyone: "..."
Ye Zhao's eyebrows twitched, he put down his chopsticks calmly, and said, "I'm full, you go ahead."
Nie Renyan: "..." Nie Ma, who is going to throw out this silly old man who picks on meal times and talks about disgusting scenes, but is completely unaware of the problem? ! I managed to coax my daughter-in-law to eat more.
Luo Xiaochen quickly finished the rice grains in the bowl, and said to Nie Renyan, who had a lunch box by his hand, "One more bowl!" Just kidding, the base has restrictions every day, only one meal at noon can provide enough food, and today Nie Renyan is still cooking, not yet. Take the opportunity to eat more! I will not be able to eat because of a few words from the master, and I don’t really love food!
Nie Renyan patted the whole lunch box over: "Tsk, you're afraid you won't survive, right? It's all yours!"
The unresponsive master wanted to continue his topic, but a sudden knock on the door interrupted him, saving everyone whose appetite was affected.
The stone closest to the door opened the door lock, and Jiang Qi poked her head halfway in from the door, shook the glass lunch box in her hand and said, "I'll return the lunch box, you are all here!"
After Nie Renyan cooked the food, someone brought a copy to Jiang Qi. The girl probably hasn't been used to the food in the cafeteria. Recently, the meat on her cheeks has disappeared, and her chin has become sharper. Jia Xiaohei also lost a lot of weight, and he looked even smaller when he held it in his hand. But this room is full of big men, so it's not appropriate to leave a girl alone, so I put it in a lunch box for her.
But this girl doesn't mind
Well, when Dafang Fang entered the room, Xiao Hei jumped out of her arms, jumped onto Ye Zhao's lap two or three times, rubbed his hand, and then yelled at Nie Renyan twice as if to show.
Before Ye Zhao woke up from the cave, finished dealing with the Taotie wuwu, and when he returned to the base and saw Xiao Hei, he recognized the spirit on it. Like Nie Renyan, he nodded at the black kitten, as if he was greeting some old acquaintance.
This behavior made others a little confused, because the two of them obviously did not greet the so-called kitten as simply as saying hello.
"You guys knew Xiao Hei before?" Jiang Qi couldn't help asking at that time.
"Yeah." Ye Zhao nodded. This surprised Xia Zhiming and Luo Xiaochen, who were familiar with him, because Ye Zhao's face blindness was so severe that he couldn't even tell the faces of people with big differences in appearance, let alone the difference in their appearance, big and small milk cats?
"Master told you about the twelve fierce beasts expelling ghosts and epidemics back then. Ye Zhao and I were both inside..." Nie Renyan explained to everyone.
It turned out that when the twelve beasts were ordered by heaven to expel the ghost epidemic, Fang Xiangshi divided them according to their temperament and attributes. Among them, Ye Zhao and Nie Renyan dealt with Gu. The so-called "compatibility of fire and water" gradually became an unusually tacit match under the constant struggle and adjustment of these two people. They themselves never even thought that there would be a day when the vicious beasts with notoriety and bloody hands would unite to do good and eliminate disasters and accumulate virtue for the people.
The traces of the two of them spread all over the land of Kyushu, expelling the Gu attached to and accumulated everywhere with a fierce momentum, and saved countless lives. The fragile human beings who forgot, the only person who was more impressed was probably the person they rescued for the first time——
They were a pair of siblings. Their parents and relatives had already been eroded by the plague and died before they expelled the ghost plague. In the dilapidated house, there were only rows of corpses covered with cloth that had not yet had time to be buried. The two children lived together in the foul smell, the older one looked less than ten years old, had been haunted by Gu for several days, and was almost lifeless, lying on the bed unconsciously, the younger one was the only one in the whole family. For those who are awake, the boy looks skinny, only five or six years old, standing beside his sister blankly, at a loss.
After talking, Ye Zhao and the others knew that his sister was twelve years old, and he was nine years old. The reason why he looked so small was because there were no adults in the house, and there were diseases and famines everywhere. It's so bad, I'm so hungry.
Ye Zhao and Nie Renyan were fierce at that time, and they were not the kind of people who would talk patiently and slowly. After understanding the situation, they devoured the girl's Gu Qi, but the girl's spirit energy and soul had all dissipated. It's almost the same, even if the Gu is expelled, it will be more or less ominous.
But these are not within the scope of their responsibilities. Just when the two of them finished cleaning up the Gu and were about to leave to go to the next place, the little boy who had been described as sluggish suddenly came to his senses and knelt down in front of them with a plop. , I want them to help save my sister completely. The two beasts, whose bodies were covered with blood all their lives, had long been numb to other people's life and death, suddenly had a slight touch in their hearts, and by accident, they brought the boy and the little girl who had lost their soul to the shore of the East China Sea, and let him try his luck Look for the mythical beast Bai Ze who disappears once in a hundred years, it knows everything, and it may have a way to save people who are almost out of their wits.
After all, they were not used to "saving people" at that time. They only had experiences that made people go crazy, and they never had the reason to help people fight back.
As for whether the child found the divine beast Bai Ze, they didn't inquire again, so they don't know.
"The spirit in Xiao Hei is the same as that boy." Nie Renyan said.
