The convoy gradually slowed down and had to slow down.
The pitted dirt floor is full of garbage.
With every turn of the wheel, mud and water splashed out like raindrops.
The slaves gathered outside the city were afraid, but quickly gathered around the slowing down pickup truck.
The survivors were wearing two types of clothes.
They were either dressed in rags or half-clothed, and many people simply wore nothing at all, with the dark dirt on their bodies turning into clothes.
Or he was wearing various coats ripped from unknown corpses, layer after layer.
"grown ups..."
"Please buy me..."
"One piece of cake, just one piece of cake!"
The skinny man, with hands and feet like flax straw, was wearing clothes made of grain sacks and was "running" with difficulty behind the pickup truck.
His eyes were sunken, like a zombie.
The huge crowd did not dare to stop the car, but just chased the slowing down pickup truck.
"grown ups.."
"I don't want anything!"
"I just ask you to let me be a dog..."
Noisy people.
Gao Tian stared blankly at the middle-aged man with glasses holding a dirty white paper in his arms.
The man's hair was disheveled and he yelled at him hoarsely:
"I was a professor in the mathematics department! These are my certificates and diplomas!"
"I can settle the accounts for you!"
He waved a few pieces of white paper in his hand, on which the publication information of top mathematics journals such as AMS and Springer could be vaguely seen.
Although he is not a mathematics major, as a student of Linjiang College, he knows what these things represent.
If before the end of the world, a man's qualifications alone would be enough to serve as a distinguished professor or even a dean.
Before the man could pass the precious white paper through the car window, another unshaven middle-aged man roughly pushed the professor to the ground:
"Sir! Ignore him!"
"I'm the winner of the Dublin Literary Prize! I've published four novels!"
"As long as you give me a bite to eat! I'm willing to do anything!"
"Do you have children!?"
"I can tell stories to my children! I can write you job postings!"
Pushing and yelling.
I wonder if this small road into the city is full of "intelligentsia". Professors and teachers who were once respected were wrestling with each other, belittling each other's uselessness.
Gao Tian's heart was filled with mixed emotions that were beyond words.
The victory of the "battle" was finally won by a man wearing a damaged work hat. He limped after the convoy. In his weak voice, you could vaguely hear words such as engineering team and construction gold medal.
As the convoy gradually entered the slave cave, amidst the roar of the diesel engine.
A large number of thin women, put on slightly cleaner short skirts, crowded on both sides of the motorcade.
They were arranged in a chaotic formation with three levels inside and three levels outside, changing poses like models.
A woman wearing silk stockings on one leg was wearing heavy makeup, and her eyebrows were painted with briquettes or charcoal, which looked a little funny.
She saw the opportunity and rushed out, then quickly approached the car and struck a charming pose:
"grown ups!"
"Want to get off?"
"Would you like to take a rest?"
"I'm cheaper than in the city, just half a piece of grass pancake!"
She squeezed her chest hard, trying to show her female charm on her thin body:
"You can be anywhere you want."
"In the car? In the middle of the road? Wherever? You can play whatever you want."
Just as he was speaking, a middle-aged man suddenly rushed out holding a woman in a dirty yellow dress.
He looked at the car with a flattering look:
"grown ups!"
"This is my wife, do you want to go to my house?"
“We cleaned it very well!”
He turned his head, then pushed his wife in front of him, and then quickly opened the woman's mouth:
“Clean! Hygienic!”
"Sir! I guarantee that my wife is not sick!"
"Just a piece of straw cake! I can also play a musical instrument to help you entertain!"
After saying that, seeing that the lemming responsible for driving did not stop, he pushed his wife anxiously:
"Dance quickly!"
"Tell the adults! You are a ballerina! Hurry up!"
There was a cry in the voice.
The two of them hadn't eaten for two days, and the hunger in their bellies was like a poisonous snake.
If this continues, they will be attacked by other slaves when they are weak.
Maybe tomorrow morning, it will become a pile of rotten meat in the pot.
The woman in the yellow dress looked numb. She trotted to the front of the motorcade and danced gracefully.
Dirty muddy water, dark toes.
She stood on tiptoes with great effort, and many scars from cigarette butts could be seen on her exposed skin.
Dark purple bruises from the whips crawled on her back like centipedes.
Noisy, shouting, and sharp sales sounds are like accompaniment on the stage.
Under the city wall, in the middle of the dirt road.
Woman is dancing.
Her posture was standard, and every time her straight toes stepped on the muddy water, sewage would splash up.
Dusk covered her with a layer of color.
Gao Tian felt as if he was holding a breath in his heart, and he couldn't help but pat the lemming to signal him to stop the car.
"parking!"
"Or let her go!"
The place where the woman is dancing is right in front of the convoy, and if it goes any further, it will crush her to death.
The driver Lemming hesitated for a moment, but did not slow down:
"grown ups."
"We can't park."
"Once we park the car, this group of prepared slaves will surround us."
"This is the unspoken rule of Polaka."
"As soon as you park your car, these guys will treat you like a weak good guy."
"They'll swarm us."
"This happened a long time ago."
"Some convoys going out to search for supplies were stopped by the elderly and children."
"As soon as you park your car, they start asking you like crazy for food."
"If you give it to one, give it to that one, otherwise they would rather put their feet and fingers in the wheel than keep you."
The lemming sighed.
"I know this couple. Both of them used to be performing artists."
"At first there were a lot of people patronizing their business, but then the woman went crazy and was like a corpse."
"I can't even bark."
"No one liked to look for her anymore."
"But if we find him, even if there is still no business in the next few days, other people in the slave cave will not dare to attack them."
"Because these prepared slaves will be worried that we will patronize their business."
Gao Tian was silent and looked at Lin An for help.
He understood what the lemmings were saying.
Because the dancer's husband had already hurried all the way to the front of the motorcade and then lay down.
The couple in front of them were ready to be run over by a car.
If there is no food and no guests from the city, it will be eaten by others in a few days.
It would be better to be run over by a car than to do this.
