Underneath the iron pot, various bags and books were burning, while inside the pot, long strips of meat were stewing.
As for what kind of meat it was, Ye Tianfei didn't want to think about it, but the fact was right in front of him: the meat in this big iron pot was exactly what he was thinking about.
When Old Li realized that his plan had been exposed, he immediately called on the others to attack Wei Chi and his group.
It turns out that Old Li is also a superhuman, and a fire-type superhuman at that. However, he has just awakened his powers, and he is no match for Wei Chi and the others.
Ye Tianfei had never been so angry. He used fire ropes to bind those depraved men, conjured fire whips to lash them, and roared at them, "How dare you do such a depraved thing! They are living, breathing people, how dare you!"
Wei Chi didn't want to waste his superpower. He and the others engaged in close combat with sharp daggers, their movements swift, accurate, and ruthless, avoiding vital points and stabbing them repeatedly until they were riddled with bloody holes and rendered unable to fight.
This battle was a one-sided massacre.
Although Lao Li and his gang were fierce and vicious, they were no match for a group of people who had received special training and had extremely strong combat power. Moreover, there was a level three fire-type ability user here. How could they possibly fight them?
Wei Chi shouted at the furious Ye Tianfei, "Leave a few alive; we need to question them."
After being crippled, Old Li lay on the ground and suddenly burst into laughter: "You think killing us will make things alright? Let me tell you, this is happening everywhere. Do you know why?"
Haha...you guys have never had meat buns or braised pork belly, have you? And you've definitely never had bone broth, have you? Tsk tsk tsk, in the freezing cold, a group of people gathered around a big iron pot, eating meat and drinking bone broth—do you know how blissful that feeling is?
Wei Chi plunged the dagger in his hand into his thigh in an instant, and said in a cold voice, "You beasts, you are not worthy of being human."
Old Li grunted and gave Wei Chi a twisted smile: "Before the apocalypse, we were doing the dirtiest and hardest work for minimum wage. After the apocalypse, the supplies we received were the worst we could get."
What, you look down on us migrant workers? We're all human, why should we suffer unfair treatment? In the apocalypse, when there's no food or water, the living are the best resource.
Why should we starve? What good is that little bit of rice and flour? They can drink their own blood, and if it congeals, they can eat it like blood clots.
Wei Chi pulled out his dagger and stabbed Old Li hard in the other thigh again.
"Haha... Go ahead and kill me if you dare. Am I not telling the truth?"
Old Li said with a ferocious expression, "Their flesh can fill our stomachs and provide warmth. The inedible parts can be used to make waste to suppress those monsters, making them mistakenly believe that there are no humans here."
"Such valuable resources, why don't we make use of them? They're all going to die anyway; if they aren't eaten by us, they'll be eaten by those monsters. Either way, they're going to be eaten, so why not provide them to us?"
Ye Tianfei walked over and stepped on his face, saying to Wei Chi, "It would be disrespectful to the dead if this person didn't die now."
No one knows where he found a bag of salt. He burned Old Li's clothes, then sprinkled the salt on his wounds and said, "But don't think too much about it. I won't let you die easily. I'll make you taste what it's like to be tortured."
"Ah—, hahahahaha, I'm not afraid, ahahahaha."
Old Li was in so much pain that his whole body was convulsing, but he was laughing loudly, constantly provoking Ye Tianfei and the others, trying to provoke them and make them lose their minds.
While sprinkling salt, Ye Tianfei said to Wei Chi, "Leave this man to me. You guys go deal with the others. Also, send someone to Qingshan Park to call Wen Yanchen over. He's a healer."
Wei Chi nodded and immediately went to make the arrangements.
