Chapter 321, Evolution
Little girl? Jiang Ran looked back, and the quiet girl had gone out without knowing when.
She turned her head and thought: "I heard from Zheng Bo that you brought that girl back from outside?"
"Well, I came across it on the road and picked it up." Shen Yang smiled nonchalantly, "Jiang Xiaoran, I have done too many evil things in my life, and one day there will be retribution... Think about it, in order to avoid going to hell after death, you have to do some good deeds occasionally while you are alive."
Jiang Ran's eyes were hot and his voice was a little hoarse: "Chen Yang, are you still afraid of going to hell?"
"I'm afraid. How could I not be afraid?" the man answered seriously.
Of course he was afraid of going to hell.
She had never done anything bad in her life, yet she had suffered so much hardship and grievance. A hundred years later, she would definitely go to heaven.
But he had done so many evil things that by the time he wanted to stop, it was too late. His hands were stained with the blood of innocent people, and after his death, he would probably be sent to the eighteenth level of hell.
Wouldn't it be true that he would never have the chance to meet her again, in heaven or on earth?
"Brother." Undeterred by his joking tone, Jiang Ran lay on the bed, speaking softly and tenderly, but the question he asked was very sharp, "Why did you do such an excessive thing to Pei Wan'er?"
No matter what the Shi family said, it cannot be denied that Pei Wan'er was innocent - the girl was involved in the feud between her elders, was kidnapped at a young age, lost her freedom, and struggled to survive in the laboratory, but still could not escape the fate of being a chess piece. In Shen Yang's calculations, she lost her life in vain.
When he knew Jiang Xiaoran was back, he was prepared for her to ask this question.
He thought of many excuses, and finally, when the girl looked at him seriously for an answer, he hesitated for a moment and replied nonchalantly: "I wanted power. At that time, the Yu family was in power, and the Shen family had no ability to compete with them. I could only use Si Xu's help."
"Power?" How could someone who doesn't even care about his own life care about power?
"Jiang Xiaoran, there's no need to make excuses for me - what I did back then is no different from what Luo Rui is going to do to me today." It's all for power, it's all intrigue, no matter what the purpose is, there is no distinction between high and low.
They are both murderers, their hands stained with the blood of innocent people...
"After I die, I will definitely go to hell..." Shen Yang closed his eyes, not looking at the emotions in the girl's eyes, and murmured, "So, Jiang Xiaoran, don't make excuses for me."
Harming others is not a good thing. At the very beginning, when he closed his eyes, he would see Shen Muxin who died with her eyes open, and Pei Wan'er who died tragically. They would question him why he was so cruel and ruthless and did not help.
Don't save him.
The man smiled bitterly.
He was already prepared to go to hell, so what else was there to worry about?
The only regret is that if there is really an afterlife, they may never have the chance to meet each other again.
"Brother." He didn't want to say it, so Jiang Ran didn't ask any more questions. She reached out and poked his arm and asked, "Where's Xiaobai?"
"He went to Yancheng." Shen Yang moved his arm away calmly, "With Shen Feng."
Not noticing his deliberate avoidance, Jiang Ran's attention shifted to the unfamiliar name: "Chen Feng?"
"In order to fight against the laboratory, Grandpa trained a superpower team that belongs only to the Shen family, and Shen Feng is the captain of that superpower team."
"Oh~ sounds very powerful." Jiang Ran said, "Qin Huai captured Sister Yaoyao. Such a long time has passed, and there is still no movement from his side. What do you think he wants to do?"
"He didn't capture Shen Yao." Based on the little friendship he had with the man, Shen Yang explained, "It was the Liu family who captured Shen Yao. It was just that they were unlucky and ran into Qin Huai."
"Hmm?" Liu family? What's the plot here?
After briefly recounting what happened at the base after they left, Shen Yang stared at Jiang Ran, who nodded repeatedly. "Are you listening to me carefully?"
"Of course!" Jiang Ran sat up straight and raised his hand. "I'm listening very carefully."
Shen Yang: “…” But I see you seem to be dozing off.
"Brother." Jiang Ran was more interested in gossip than the bloody power struggles of the past. "You don't seem worried about Sister Yaoyao at all?"
Logically speaking, Shen Yang should be extremely anxious since his sister fell into the hands of his old enemy. However, he seemed calm and composed.
“Well, if it’s Chen Yao and Qin Huai, don’t worry too much.”
"Why?"
"...Do you still eat White Rabbit now?" Shen Yang suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
Jiang Ran was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips: "I just quit a while ago."
“Oh, Shen Yao was able to survive Qin Huai’s hands, thanks to your big white rabbit.”
What does that mean? Jiang Ran was even more curious and was about to ask more questions, but the man put on a weak look and said softly: "We've talked enough. I'm a little tired. Jiang Xiaoran, you can go back."
Jiang Ran: “…” The most hateful person in the world is the one who stops telling a story halfway through!
She said goodbye to Shen Yang reluctantly and reluctantly, and slowly moved out of the room.
Outside the door, the girl was squatting by the wall. When she saw her come out, she quickly stood up and asked her with gestures: "Is he asleep?"
Having learned a little sign language in the orphanage, Jiang Ran understood her problem: "Go to sleep, you should go back to sleep too."
After getting the answer, the girl breathed a sigh of relief, smiled softly, and nodded: "Good night."
"Hey, wait..." Jiang Ran stopped the girl and remembered something important. "My name is Jiang Ran, what's your name?"
The girl hesitated for a moment, then held out her hand to her and wrote three words on the palm: "Tao Luyi."
"Green clothes?" Jiang Ran asked, "Green clothes, green clothes with yellow skirts?"
She remembered that this seemed to be an elegy?
The girl nodded: "It's to commemorate my mother."
Jiang Ran suddenly realized.
She thanked the girl again for taking care of Shen Yang.
Tao Luyi waved her hand, her cheeks slightly red. "He is my savior." After a pause, she added, "He is a good man."
Good people should be rewarded.
Jiang Ran was silent.
She had met so many people, but only this girl would foolishly say that her brother was a good man.
There are so many servants in the Shen family, but Shen Yang chose to keep her. It must be because of this reason.
…
Because Jiang Ran didn't come down, Gu Yunqing felt restricted when eating - no matter which dish he picked up, Si Xu would glare at him.
The man ate the white rice in his bowl with frustration. The bowl was almost empty when he finally waited for Jiang Ran to come down from upstairs.
"Hey, Ranran, you've worked hard. Sit down quickly and I'll serve you some food!"
Facing Captain Gu's unusual enthusiasm, Jiang Ran looked at Si Xu inquiringly: "Si Xu, are you bullying Captain Gu again?"
Si Xu pulled out a chair for her. Upon hearing this, he glared at Gu Yunqing and asked, "Did I bully you?"
Gu Yunqing wanted to nod, but he knew that if he did, his life would be gone too. So, he could only shake his head with tears in his eyes: "No, Ranran, you misunderstood Brother Seven."
They all call me "Seventh Brother", which means I've been bullied so badly.
Jiang Ran was very considerate and did not expose him, and sat down to eat.
"What do you think of this zombie wave?" When everyone was present, Si Xu got down to business. "There shouldn't be a zombie wave in the summer."
Gu Yunqing also found it strange: "I feel like the zombies seem to have evolved after a spring."
"evolution?"
"Well, they have learned to make human ladders." Unlike the last time when the zombies unconsciously piled up the "ladder", this time, when attacking the city, they obviously premeditatedly used the bodies of their companions to build a ladder to climb up the city wall.
"Evolution..." The zombies began to attack with purpose. Is this evolution? Or... is there something else behind this zombie wave?
