Chapter 231 So-called Cruelty



While the Bai family was hoarding supplies, the old village chief was also secretly hoarding supplies, storing them in the air-raid shelter.

The old village chief had experienced war when he was young and knew the importance of stockpiling supplies. Every time, he would find a few young men to follow him into the air-raid shelter in the middle of the night to carry things in.

While people in other villages were in a panic, he was already leading strong young men to clear the zombies from his village.

When others have already realized that there is no salvation in the apocalypse.

Every single person in the village, adults and children alike, had a gleaming kitchen knife stuffed into their hands.

In addition, Village Chief Li did something extremely cruel.

The day before the apocalypse, he awakened his fire-based superpowers.

When he saw the flames wrapped around his hands, he knew that the end times were coming.

I heard Bai Zhengxuan say that in addition to zombies, mutated animals will also appear. Once they mutate, they will become extremely ferocious and pose a great threat to people.

So, he braised a pot of meat during the day.

In the evening, they would go from house to house and throw braised meat into people's yards.

The braised meat was adulterated with medicine.

Village Chief Li is such a person; he is willing to risk his life to protect the people in the village.

They would also resolutely harm small lives to protect the people in the village.

There are far too many people in the village who keep animals.

Almost every household has cats and dogs.

He knew he was cruel, but if the animals mutated, the villagers would be the ones to die.

Besides cats and dogs, he also placed some braised meat at the door of every household, specifically for small animals like rats and cockroaches.

One night before the apocalypse, he stayed up all night and threw a large pot of braised meat into various corners of the village, including villagers' homes.

He didn't care whether he would go to hell for harming so many lives; he only knew that he was protecting the villagers.

If this is what you call cruel, then he can go to hell after he dies; in any case, he will never regret it.

Because of his series of actions, after the apocalypse, the people of Baiyang Village were much luckier than those of other villages.

Even in the countryside, Baiyang Village had the lowest mortality rate of all the villages.

While people in other villages were being torn apart by mutated animals, he was already methodically leading the younger generation to clear out zombies from his village.

The young man was brave, but he still didn't dare to kill his fellow villagers who had turned into zombies.

Village Chief Li dares.

He knew clearly what he wanted: for the people in the village to survive.

The first zombie to die in Baiyang Village was killed by Li, the village chief who was in his seventies.

Most of the people in the village are elderly; the young people have all gone out to work, leaving behind only the elderly and children.

Even so, the number of survivors in Baiyang Village was still alarmingly high.

Aside from those who initially turned into zombies and those who were accidentally bitten by zombies, very few people in Baiyang Village died after the situation was brought under control.

In the air-raid shelter, every family slept in a tent, and even when the village was burned to the ground, soft cotton quilts were still laid out on the ground.

The supplies that Village Chief Li hoarded were for the entire village.

Tent, quilt, kitchen knife, clothes...

He even remembers clearly which household has a baby and needs formula or diapers.

Although the clothes and items he hoarded all looked outdated, such as those brightly colored quilts and clothes...

It doesn't conform to modern aesthetics at all, and young people might even say it's ugly.

But those were all real things that could help the villagers get through their difficulties.

When the Bai family entered the air-raid shelter, they saw the children's smiling faces.

The children in the safe base were much happier than those in the safe base; their faces were rosy, and they were clearly not hungry.

Bai Xizhu looked at Village Chief Li with deep respect.

Even though she knew the apocalypse was about to break out, the first thing she thought of was her family. The night before the apocalypse broke out, she only managed to post a message online through Leng Yebai.

Village Chief Li truly used all his strength to protect everyone in the village.

The arrival of the Bai family members instantly enlivened the air-raid shelter.

Every villager who returned from afar brought joy to the people of Baiyang Village.

In the distance, where no one can see.

Two middle-aged people dressed in black sportswear sat on a large tree, looking in the direction of the air-raid shelter.

They looked to be in their thirties, and their faces were obscured by black face masks.

Judging from his eyebrows, one can vaguely tell that the man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and has a gentle and refined temperament.

The woman had gentle eyes, and her smooth, black hair cascaded down her back, fluttering in the wind.

The two men stared intently at the direction of the air-raid shelter, their eyes seeming to have witnessed countless hardships.

The two sat quietly in the tree, neither of them speaking, their bodies radiating an aura of suppressed sadness.

Although they looked like a couple in their thirties, you could always see the sorrow of hardship in their eyes.

The surroundings were completely quiet, and one could faintly hear Bai Anhai's hearty voice coming from inside the air-raid shelter.

The mysterious man sitting in the tree smiled slightly and let out a barely perceptible sigh.

The two people sat in the tree for an unknown amount of time, remaining motionless. From the moment the Bai family entered until they came out, their eyes remained fixed on the entrance.

It seems there are people or things inside that they cherish.

Although his body wanted to rush forward, his fingers gripped the tree trunk tightly, restraining himself to the extreme.

As darkness fell, the Bai family emerged from the air-raid shelter and, under the watchful eyes of Village Chief Li, walked step by step toward the bus.

The two people in the tree moved. They were as nimble as ghosts, gliding down from the tree and following the Bai family members at a distance.

After the apocalypse, plants grew wildly, especially in the countryside, where they were well hidden among the grass and trees.

Their eyes gleamed with greed as they carefully scrutinized everyone in front of them.

In those two pairs of eyes, there was the joy of a long-awaited reunion, and a sense of sorrow.

The two emotions were intertwined, leaving them with mixed feelings.

Even after the Bai family members had all boarded the bus, their gazes did not diminish in the slightest.

Those two pairs of eyes seemed unable to get enough of looking at the bus, and they didn't look away for a long time, even though they were just staring at it.

They knew they were inside.

Who is that young man?

The woman wearing a mask spoke with a slight tremor, and her whole body shook.

"I don't know him, he should be Xiaozhu's boyfriend."

The man shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing the vicissitudes and sorrow of history.

Even though the woman didn't specify which young man she was asking, the man seemed to know the Bai family very well and immediately knew who she was asking.

The woman's gaze remained fixed on the bus, muttering to herself.

"He's good-looking, very handsome, much better looking than Xiao Hai."
