Chapter 135 Burned to the ground
The three rough men burst into laughter upon hearing Lin Muyan's words.
"You mean the girl who used to live here? Do you even need to ask? Of course, she was...hehehe..."
The lewd and arrogant laughter echoed in the stairwell. Many people who were hiding at home and dared not come out listened intently. Hearing the three men's arrogant laughter, they were all filled with resentment, but had no way to express their bitterness.
The three men continued their rambling, boastful talk, which, though intended to show off, only made Lin Muyan angrier. She also learned the whole story from their conversation.
These three men, relying on their height, strength, and ruthlessness, used overwhelming force to seize the house and rob a nearby convenience store.
When the night is quiet, they randomly select unlucky victims, break into homes, and rob nearby residents.
They controlled the supplies, and some people, unable to endure it any longer, turned to them for trade.
As for how the transaction would proceed, those three have already disgustingly revealed it.
Lin Muyan frowned, glanced at the stairwells on both sides, and then said to the three people:
“I’ll go inside with you.”
The three men looked at each other, their smiles growing increasingly lewd.
Lin Muyan walked into the house and glanced around. It was a two-bedroom, one-living-room house, with one of the rooms filled with all kinds of supplies, including food and drinks. By today's standards, it could indeed be considered a "wealthy family".
The three men weren't in a hurry to see Lin Muyan walking around casually, but their eyes were fixed on her, already thinking about how they would torture her later.
They were fearless and didn't take Lin Muyan seriously at all.
Because in their eyes, Lin Muyan, such a petite woman, was like a little lamb.
Can the little lamb escape from those three wolves?
"Young lady, are you satisfied with our place? Do you want to stay? As long as you can serve the three of us well, you can work with us from now on. We guarantee you'll live more comfortably than other women in this apocalypse."
At this moment, one of the three, who had a pointed mouth and monkey-like face, tried to tempt Lin Muyan, thinking that she was tempted by the room full of supplies.
Lin Muyan's expression flashed, and she suddenly turned around and looked at the three of them with a smile.
"Great! I'm just worried about not having enough to eat or wear in the apocalypse. If I follow you, will I really be able to live a good life?"
Upon hearing this, the three men were already tempted. They were absolutely certain that the young woman in front of them had little social experience and couldn't endure hardship, and that she was already interested in the conditions they had offered.
"Hehe, your little sister is so beautiful, of course we can't bear to see you suffer, we will definitely make sure you live a good life."
Lin Muyan smiled and looked around, but found no trace of Su Yun. She then smiled again and said to them:
"You have to keep your word, okay? By the way, can you tell me where Su Yun is?"
The man with the pointed chin and monkey-like face narrowed his eyes dangerously: "What do you want with her?"
Lin Muyan tilted her head, her face showing an innocent expression.
“She owes me a lot of money, and I’m almost starving, so of course I have to come and settle the score with her.”
Lin Muyan can lie without even thinking now. If it were before, she probably wouldn't have been able to come up with a lie so quickly and say it without batting an eye, so that no one would suspect anything.
The three men indeed believed it and clicked their tongues a few times.
"You mean Su Yun? That bitch is a tough character, not easy to deal with. She was originally in this house, but she escaped."
“That brat should still be in this building, but we don’t know which house she’s hiding in. We’re too lazy to look for her. But since you’re with us, your business is our business. We’ll help you find her and settle the score.”
A cold glint flashed in Lin Muyan's eyes, and a cold smile curled at the corner of her lips.
In other words, Su Yun is alright for now, that's great.
The comments section was filled with concern for Lin Muyan.
[She has little practical experience. She went into this closed house alone with three men. Are you sure it's alright?]
[She is indeed very brave, but she is strong, possesses fire-type abilities, and can unleash Ah Bao at any time. I think the three people on the other side should be praying.]
[Of course, how can ordinary people compare to awakened ones? Unless the opponent catches Lin Muyan off guard and launches a surprise attack, but look at those three idiots, they don't even realize they're about to die, grinning like such a lewd jerk.]
Lin Muyan was somewhat fearless because these three people genuinely believed that she was a weak woman who couldn't even kill a chicken.
The man's arrogance, coupled with Lin Muyan's outward appearance of fragility, were catalysts for the three men's demise.
"Girl, now that you've agreed to come with us, shouldn't we..."
At this moment, the three men moved closer to Lin Muyan, and their stench made Lin Muyan retreat in disgust.
She waved her hand in front of her nose.
"You stink. You three bugs would be an insult to the word 'zombie' if you mutated into zombies."
The three men's expressions changed drastically.
"You shameless bitch, you don't know what's good for you. Looks like I've been too lenient with you. I'll take care of you right now!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man with the pointed mouth and monkey-like face rushed over first and reached out to grab Lin Muyan.
Lin Muyan calmly raised her hand, and a ball of flame instantly condensed in her palm.
coax--
The enormous flames instantly engulfed the man with the pointed mouth and monkey-like cheeks.
Before he could even react, before he could even utter a sound, he vanished completely in the flames, leaving not a trace behind.
The crackling sound of burning, along with an indescribable odor, instantly filled the entire room.
The remaining two considered themselves quite brave, but at this moment, their companion was burned to ashes right before their eyes, and a strange smell filled the air, finally instilling fear in them.
With a "plop," the two were so frightened that they immediately begged Lin Muyan for mercy.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! All the supplies inside are yours!"
"Grandma, you are so magnanimous. We were just bewitched and blind."
The two men were so scared they almost wet themselves. This was beyond their imagination. To go against someone who could control fire was tantamount to courting death.
Lin Muyan grinned, but did not retract the flame in her palm.
Actually, she was a little surprised herself. She had controlled her power just now, thinking that she shouldn't use too much force, so that she could at least leave a complete corpse and more directly scare the two of them.
Who knew that while he had control over his power, he couldn't control his emotions, and his inner anger seemed to amplify the destructive power of the flames.
But it's alright, at least these two were really scared to the point of tears.
Lin Muyan glanced at the two of them, but she was in a hurry to find Su Yun and didn't have time to waste with them.
A fire was thrown out, and this time it went out of control, burning the two people to ashes.
Lin Muyan originally thought that doing something like this for the first time would cause some psychological burden, but she didn't. They deserved to die.
In addition, flames, unlike swords, spears, and clubs, do not draw blood, so they are not frightening from a sensory perspective.
She glanced at the supplies in the room, but did not take them away, nor did she kindly go door-to-door to deliver them.
In the end times, you have to rely on yourself. They can't even deal with these three people now. If the three of them are so arrogant, then there will be even more dangers ahead. They won't survive or go far at all.
Lin Muyan was already being merciful by helping them deal with these three; any further action was up to them.
