Chapter 18: The End of the World



Wang Zhijie looked straight at Lu Tian, ​​and Lu Tian also looked at Wang Zhijie calmly.

Soon, Wang Zhijie looked away.

He sighed in his heart, knowing that he could not change Lu Tian's decision, so he could only repeatedly remind Lu Tian to be careful.

If you have any difficulties, please contact us in time. His former colleagues in Yuncheng may be able to help.

Lu Tian patted Wang Zhijie on the shoulder and said that he would be careful and wait for him to come back from Jiufeng Mountain before they had a good reunion.

Before leaving, Wang Zhijie handed him a room card of Huatian Hotel. Lu Tian took the room card without hesitation, hugged Wang Zhijie, and the two parted with some sadness.

Lu Tian staggered among the crowd. It was the busiest time of the day in the food street, with peddlers and small vendors shouting one after another, refusing to give in to each other.

The stores were packed with customers, the streets were crowded with people and cars, and the slightly spacious asphalt road was so overcrowded that cars could not squeeze in at all. It was a prosperous and lively scene.

Lu Tian walked past men and women with happy smiles on their faces. The alcohol started to take effect and he seemed to have hallucinations in a trance. The prosperous scene before him turned into a depressed and desolate end of the world. The happy crowd and people with happy smiles seemed to have turned into people struggling on the brink of life and death, and were called pariahs and two-legged beasts by the noble upper class.

Their eyes were numb and lifeless, like dead ashes. They had lost hope of living and became bodies without souls.

Women sell their bodies for a living, and now the glamorous actresses have become playthings that they used to look down upon in order to survive, because they have awakened their special powers, enjoyed privileges, and become the superior people.

Although the state has established a large-scale al-Qaeda organization in the last days, the law and order have been broken, morality has declined, and the power to restrain people is no longer strong. The chivalrous have always violated the law with force, and the Yanxia has always been a tradition. In the last days, burning, killing, looting, raping, and killing and robbing have become commonplace, and the state has no power to restrain these strongmen.

Ancient warriors, people with special abilities and other people who possess powerful strength ignore the power of the country, because even the most powerful nuclear weapons of the country cannot pose a fatal threat to them.

Therefore, in the organizational bases where humans live in the last days, the law of the jungle is played out all the time, fists are the truth, and whoever possesses military force possesses supreme power.

The powerful upper class decides the life and death of the so-called untouchables. In their eyes, the lives of the untouchables are as cheap as ants and are not worth even a pound of rice.

In today's society, there are countries, governments, police, and laws. Although there is a gap between the rich and the poor, there are also privileges above the law created by collusion between officials and businessmen.

But it will not be like the world at the end of the world, where the powerful and lawless people are unscrupulous and rampant, without any legal constraints or sanctions, trampling on human dignity and destroying lives in a bloody manner, and treating the lives of ordinary people as worthless.

There is no harm without comparison. Without experiencing the apocalypse where people eat each other, people will never know how happy they are now.

Enjoy this beautiful and short time to the fullest!

Lu Tian shook his head to dispel the thoughts in his mind. His eyes became clear again and he looked at the playful crowd again with some fading interest.

After leaving the food street, we came to the Huatian Hotel opposite. The parking lot in front of the hotel was filled with luxury cars worth millions or even tens of millions. Between the luxury cars and in the open space of the square, there were several beggars shuttling back and forth.

He stood in front of the Huatian Hotel and looked at it with interest for a while. It seemed to be as magnificent as before, worthy of being the first five-star hotel in Los Angeles.

Just as he was about to go in, a sturdy young man in his twenties walked up to him and begged pitifully, "Handsome man, please be kind and give me some money."

Before he finished speaking, a worn stainless steel iron fist appeared in front of Lu Tian. If it weren't for this iconic begging tool, Lu Tian really didn't think the other person was a beggar. He was young, strong, and a little handsome.

Is it possible that the begging industry has become so inward-looking that beggars are now occupied by young people?

Lu Tian searched his pockets. It was rare that the other party thought so highly of him, so he had to show his appreciation. He searched through his clothes and trouser pockets, but found no cash. Lu Tian could only look at the male beggar apologetically.

But what the young beggar did next opened Lu Tian's eyes.

The young beggar calmly took out a payment QR code and indicated that he could scan the code to pay.

Beggars nowadays have completely kept up with the times and are already so advanced. Stunned, Lu Tian had no choice but to scan the QR code. Just as he was about to pay, a burst of classic fruit call music interrupted him.

It's not mine, but I've always supported domestic products. And I can't bear to spend so much money, could it be...

Under Lu Tian's incredulous gaze, the young beggar took out the latest Apple 14plus worth more than 15,000 yuan from his pocket.

Shit! Turns out I'm the poor one. Who is the beggar after all? Or is he worse than a beggar?

The phone Lu Tian is using now is a domestic mid-range phone, which costs just over 2,000 yuan. It is not in the same class as the iPhone.

Lu Tian wanted to turn his head and walk away, but under the beggar's scorching gaze, he was too shy to just leave, so he just paid one dollar.

As he reached the door, he heard the young beggar's curse: "I actually ran into a poor guy in front of the Huatian Hotel. What bad luck."

Lu Tian stopped and prepared to get his one dollar back. He was not a saint who would be scolded after giving away money. People like the young beggar were not worthy of his pity at all. Giving one dollar was a kind gesture, but such a person was not grateful and instead thought it was too little. He was simply a wolf cub that could not be tamed.

These people have no humanity; they are demons in human form. In the early stages of the apocalypse, they exploited human kindness, feigning pity to gain sympathy, only to brutally murder those who helped them and mock them as fools! This is just like the story of the farmer and the snake.

God should take such people away, but on the contrary, good people don't live long, while evil will last for thousands of years. In the end times, such people live very comfortably. It seems to make people give up kindness.

Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and a Maserati President stopped in front of Lu Tian. A middle-aged man with a big belly, dressed in a suit and tie, and a big gold chain as thick as his ring finger around his neck got out of the car, hugging a young and seductively dressed young woman.

Lu Tian glanced at the young woman and was suddenly stunned.

It turned out to be her ex-girlfriend, Li Yuerong.

He also remembered the middle-aged man, who was the wealthy boss of Li Yuerong's company.

When the young beggar saw the rich man appear, it was as if he saw a fat sheep with golden light all over its body. As long as he could make this man happy, he would definitely gain a lot today and get rid of the bad luck just now.

He ran up to the two men like a gust of wind, bent down, and begged flatteringly: "Boss, good luck and prosperity!"
