Prologue The Seven Deadly Sins(1/2)

Catastrophe.

After the sudden disaster, the land was devastated, species mutated, food was scarce, living environment was harsh, the times were completely destroyed, and civilization was gone.

...

On an unknown street, a 23-year-old young man, pursing his clothes and lowering his head, was walking quickly on an unknown street.

The streets are dilapidated and ugly, and the underground sewage system was completely paralyzed many years ago. Simple outdoor toilets emit stench and are connected to rows of storefronts. The lights in the entire area are rare, and a group of people can be seen standing on the roadside from time to time, but most of them are women and fewer men.

The young man who walked quickly and looked squinting was named Qin Yu, who was 1.82 meters tall and strong. He was unemployed today. He was preparing to buy a formal resident status in the Ninth Special Zone to complete the first step of his plan.

Qin Yu originally had beautiful eyebrows and straight faces. He was considered a sunny handsome guy, but now he was dressed a little sloppy, his beard was not shaved, his slightly longer hair was stuck together, and his clothes looked full of oil stains and stains. In short, it was very inconspicuous among the crowd.

Walking forward quickly, Qin Yu looked up at the intersection and prepared to return to his residence from the left.

"Brother, boy...!"

A crisp shout sounded, and a woman was wearing a slightly white-washed dress, wrapped in a coat, and gently pulled Qin Yu on the side of the road.

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment and looked back: "What are you doing?"

"Thirty dollars." The woman raised three slender fingers, looked back at the dilapidated store behind her and whispered: "Let's go there."

"Haha, I can't afford to play." Qin Yu smiled and continued walking.

"Wait." The woman reached out and pulled Qin Yu again: "Twenty-five, twenty-five elements?"

Qin Yu looked back at the woman, paused for a while and continued to shake his head: "I have no money."

"Didn't like me? There's someone in the room."

"It's really no money." Qin Yu shook his arm: "Let me go, I'm in a hurry to go home."

The woman bit her red lips, held Qin Yu tightly with her little hand, and was silent for a long time before adding softly: "Two bowls of rice are fine, but I have to use my bowl to measure it."

Qin Yu frowned: "I said it, get out of here!"

The woman still didn't let go, and looked back at a group of seven or eight-year-old children next to the store and said, "...I have three children, I can't support them if I don't have business tonight... Brother, you can do it, you can help me once, a bowl of rice is fine, I'll kneel down for you."

Qin Yu looked at the woman and said coldly: "How many years have the world become like this? In such an environment, if you don't have the ability to support yourself, what will you have?"

The woman was stunned.

Qin Yu shook his arms away, pursed his clothes and continued to move forward.

After the woman stood there for a while, she quickly ran back to the store room, and said angrily: "That person has it, he has it. When I pulled him, I saw what was in his arms."

...

About half an hour later.

Qin Yu returned to a dilapidated six-story building and followed the old and dusty steps into his home he had settled on the fifth floor.

This building is only lived in Qin Yu and his friend Xiaozhuang. Many of the outer walls have collapsed. If you want to separate from the past, it is considered a dangerous building on the verge of demolition. But in this era, the meaning of home is limited to where you are, and has nothing to do with where you live. Qin Yu chose this because it has no electric lights and no water source, and he does not have to bear any expensive living expenses.

The house is very simple, with a bed, two broken cabinets, no entertainment facilities, the only military fan magazine that has been broken, and the release date is still in 2019.

After entering the room, Qin Yu took off his dirty coat, took out a shiny canvas bag from his arms, carefully came to the bedside, picked up a broken bowl, and started to serve tempting white rice from the inside, and opened his mouth and shouted, "Xiaozhuang, have the rice ready?"

"Not yet, I just came back." After someone in the inner room responded, a young man of the same age as Qin Yu walked out, with dark skin and a strong face.

"Dingdeng!"

Just as Qin Yu was about to talk to Xiaozhuang, deafening footsteps suddenly came downstairs. He was stunned for a moment, immediately hid the bag and bowl in the cabinet, and walked to the door with only one worn wooden door.

In less than ten seconds, seven or eight children under the age of ten led dozens of men and women to appear in the stairwell.

The stairs are outdoors, with cracked cement and aging iron railings. So many people rushed up together, and the pace was rapid. The building was shaken for a moment and seemed to shake.

Qin Yu immediately reached out and shouted, "Don't...Don't go up so hard, damn it, the stairs are about to collapse."

"Uncle, hungry."

"Uncle, I want to have a meal..."

“…!”

The children each took a small bowl, stood on the stairs, and looked at Qin Yu dirty.

"Uncle is hungry, are you having dinner at home? Don't you eat one?" Qin Yu replied with a smile.

The children had pure eyes and simple thinking, but the adults behind them had torn apart the most basic disguise. There was a strong man with a bald head shaved and shouted first: "If you don't take food, you won't be able to get it."

"I don't have food," Qin Yu waved his hand and replied, "It's really not. We are all hungry ghosts in this planning area. It's not easy. If I really have it, I won't protect you, at least I will give it to you..."

"Stop talking nonsense, I saw you carrying food." The strong man continued to shout, "Hurry up, we will leave after taking it. If you don't want it, just take half of it."

"No."

Qin Yu shook his head.

"Enter his house." The strong man shouted in a deep voice.

"Uncle, I want to eat."

"Give me some food."

“…!”

The crowd rushed up, and the stairs hanging outside the building shook again, as if they could collapse at any time.

Qin Yu looked at the crowd of people and his eyes turned red in an instant. He raised his right leg and pulled out a dagger on his dirty pants leg with his right hand, pointing at the crowd and shouting: "Damn it, I'm a lone wolf?! Who is so afraid of death when I'm mingling here? I have food, I'll give it to you if I break the knife."

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and the strong man shouted indifferently: "The child is ahead, you can stab the child to death first."

"I'm fucking..." Qin Yu was speechless for a moment.

"Get into the house and get the food." The strong man waved his hand and shouted again.

After speaking, people on the steps flocked forward, and the children also instantly surrounded Qin Yu and shouted, "Uncle, give me food."

"Uncle, I haven't had a meal in several days."

"Get out of here!"

Qin Yu held the dagger and shouted helplessly at the children: "Otherwise I really stabbed me, I stabbed me..."

Inside the house, Xiaozhuang saw a conflict at the door, immediately stepped forward to stop Qin Yu and shouted to everyone: "Don't be impulsive, say something."

The children were so hungry that they were not afraid of anything, they just pestered Qin Yu, and the adults behind them had already squeezed out of the gap.

Qin Yu was strong and took a step and stuck at the door. He stared at the beads and shouted: "I only live by myself, don't force me!"

The crowd rushed towards the door in a crazily crowded manner, and no one paid attention to Qin Yu's words.

Qin Yu was always pulled by the low-sized children to the door, but he couldn't really stab it, so he could only struggle with his body and prepare to deal with the adults.

"Uncle, just give me a bowl of rice..."

"roll!"

When a teenage child was pulling Qin Yu hard, the latter shook his arm and was about to break free, but unexpectedly, the child bumped into the crowd rushing up, and then his steps were unstable and he fell out of the gap in the iron fence on his back.

"ah!!"

A child's scream of horror echoed for a long time.

"Bang!"

Immediately afterwards, the sound of my body falling to the ground appeared downstairs.

Qin Yu and Xiaozhuang were stunned and panted and looked at the iron railing, feeling a little at a loss for a moment.

The crowd was quiet and the stairs were restored to a smoother level.

"Child, that child fell down." Xiaozhuang shouted urgently.

Dozens of people turned their heads and looked downstairs, with a blank expression and silent for less than two seconds before turning their heads over. The child's mother was stunned for a while and rushed downstairs with a whistle.

Qin Yu was stunned.

"food."

"The child has fallen, and he will definitely not be allowed to leave if he doesn't give him food."

"Snatch him."

“…!”

The shouts were shocking and the momentum was imposing. None of the rest turned around to see the child who fell downstairs, but continued to squeeze into each other.

Xiaozhuang stood at the door, staring at the crowded crowd with his eyes, knowing very well that if he didn't get some blood today, he would definitely have to fight for his life, so he licked his lips and shouted: "Okay, you guys, I'm going to admit it, I'll admit it... I'll get it for you."

Qin Yu immediately grabbed Xiaozhuang's arm when he heard the sound and ordered in a low voice: "I can't give it, I can't give it at all."

Xiaozhuang looked at the vast crowd outside the door and stared at her eyes and responded: "The food has been leaked. If you don't give me some sweetness, these people will definitely not be able to leave."

"It will be more troublesome if you give sweetness." Qin Yu responded in a very serious tone: "It's better to work hard than to let go."

"Nonsense!" Xiaozhuang and Qin Yu had different views. He insisted: "You only have a sound from us, but there are so many people outside, are you sure to suppress them? If you can't suppress them, we must be robbed. They are already red-eyed, can't you tell me?"

"You'll be done listening to me. I'll go back and get the sound."

"Xiao Yu, haven't you seen it? They didn't leave after the child fell. These people were no longer rational..." Xiaozhuang pulled Qin Yu's arm away and replied in a low voice: "We have enough food, and we have changed all the money that should be exchanged. Give them a bowl of rice, which is not a big loss for us, so I don't want to bet on my life. I have a portion of the food, so I have the right to decide how to use him."
