Chapter 81 Put a collar on everyone
After Zhou Ming told Wang Siyan her thoughts, she immediately went to prepare props.
That night, Zhou Ming and the conjurer had their first in-depth conversation. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, the carriage they were in only had mercenaries and no passengers, so they could speak freely.
It was a quiet night today. The Sand Ghost had not found the convoy, and there was no more "clucking" sound outside. Only the narration of the poker-masked spellcaster, which was neither serious nor serious, echoed in my ears.
"What you said before is very reasonable, but you also ignored the real problem. The difficulty we face now is not whether we should adhere to the moral bottom line, but whether we want to live, whether we should die as a human being, or give up our life as a human being.
Go down.
"My companions and I once fell into a strange valley. Coming out of that valley will cause double damage to people's body and spirit. Due to some rules, the person walking in front will suffer more than the person behind.
Injury, just like when running, the leader in front will bear more wind resistance.
"In the beginning, my friend and I walked alternately back and forth in the valley. Over the past two days, our consciousness began to blur. The surface of our bodies was covered with blood and sweat oozing from the body. There was also blood and urine when we peeed. There were gaps between our mouths and fingernails.
They are all ulcerated, and all kinds of hallucinations and auditory hallucinations appear in turn.
"At that time, we knew that if we continued like this and couldn't get out, someone would die in the end. We didn't say anything at first. Then one day, I attacked him in advance. I broke his limbs and broke his limbs while we were on our way.
It was carried on a thick wooden stick and hung in front of me, like a radish hanging in front of a donkey's eyes.
"I just watched helplessly as he became more and more crazy, and the ulcers on his body became more and more serious. In the end, his limbs fell off the bones like melted cheese. When only white bones were left in his arms and legs, he still remained
With strong vitality... even though he was already crazy at that time.
"I walked out of the valley like this. Do you know that I still feel guilty about him now?"
The other hermits and mercenaries were silent, and so was Zhou Ming, but everyone's attention was focused on Poker Man. The story he told was so similar to the current desperate situation that everyone resonated in their hearts.
Seeing that no one was talking, the poker man kept talking to himself: "I don't feel guilty, because I found out after I took action that he had already planned to take action against me. The reason why I survived was just because of what I did.
Decide earlier. In fact, we are no different... Sometimes, the reality is so cruel."
Zhou Ming looked around and saw that everyone else was thoughtful and sneered.
A hermit next to me said: "Although it is cruel, this is the reality. What you said does not apply in this situation."
Hearing this, a mercenary also raised his head, looked at Zhou Ming hesitantly, and said half in defense and half in advice: "Yes, Zhou Ming, what you said must be based on the premise that people are alive. If everyone is alive,
What's the use of talking about morality after you're dead?"
Another person echoed: "Actually, if you think about it carefully, what is the difference between what we do and killing people? It's just a little more disgusting now, but in the end the result is still the same as killing them. The only thing we need to overcome is that
Discomfort."
Zhou Ming looked at the people who were wavering in their thoughts, shook his head mockingly, and then looked at the poker man.
"Have you started the psychological game? Mr. Poker, you are more difficult than I thought. You are worthy of being a man who has experienced hundreds of battles and climbed out of the dead. The story just now shook the standards I finally established. You
What should I do next?”
"I don't mean anything against you, but you are still too young. This world is not as beautiful as you imagined. Sometimes there is no concept of human beings as a group. In desperate situations, there are always only individuals, and it is always the jungle of the jungle." The poker man's tone rose slightly.
, showing some pride.
It is easier to shake people's conscience in death than to stick to the bottom line of morality. When life is threatened, all concepts and thoughts based on the supremacy of life are like floating wooden towers floating on the water.
One ripple and everything will fall apart.
Zhou Ming looked at the poker man. He knew that he lost in this duel because he had no inherent advantage.
However... this is only expected. He has already seen the bottom line of people once, and he no longer has any optimistic thoughts.
Zhou Ming raised his hand and looked at the electronic watch on his wrist. Seeing this move, the poker man said: "It's still very early in the day."
"I'm waiting for someone, I think it's almost time." Zhou Ming looked up at the exit at the top of the carriage.
Before he finished speaking, the round metal cover above his head began to rotate slowly. After twisting for a week, it was opened. A slim figure fell into the carriage in an elegant and swift manner. Wang Siyan fell into the carriage, squatting half-crouching for cushioning, and everyone was watching.
All focused on her.
Zhou Ming looked at Wang Siyan, who nodded gently to indicate that everything was going well.
Then she raised her head and shouted to the top: "Everyone, come down."
"what?"
"What happened outside?"
"The sand ghost is coming to attack?!"
The mercenaries who were resting on the ground all stood up. At this time, Zhou Ming suddenly said: "Don't worry, it's not a night attack by sand ghosts. I just invited three guides to come to our place to chat."
Zhou Ming stood up from the ground with one hand and supported the three guides who climbed down from the top tremblingly. Their expressions were extremely frightened, and their whole bodies were shaking with fear, as if they had been greatly frightened.
Others saw a black metal collar hanging around the guide's neck. There was a green indicator light on the collar that flashed on and off like breathing. In addition, the three guides also had a black metal wristband on their wrists, similar in style to the collar.
.
Poisonous Scorpion seemed to have noticed something, and immediately raised his rifle and pointed it at Zhou Ming's forehead. In the small confined space, the muzzle of the gun was almost touching Zhou Ming's forehead.
"What did you do to them!" Venomous Scorpion asked coldly.
Zhou Ming raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, but the corners of his mouth turned up into a smile, and he burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, calm down, calm down a little bit, okay? Put down the gun, otherwise the three guides will die."
According to Poison Scorpion's experience, the things on the necks of the three guides should be devices similar to time bombs. The most important core member of the entire convoy is the guide who can recognize the way. Zhou Ming put it on the three of them.
The time bomb is nothing more than an attempt to blackmail the emperor into ordering the princes and making them obey his words!
But Poisonous Scorpion will not let this happen, and no one here will allow this to happen!
"I will make you regret being born in this world!" Poisonous Scorpion stared at Zhou Ming with sinister eyes, a cruel look flashed across his face.
