Xia Mu felt the power surging in his body, and gently clapped his hands to brush off the dust.
Little did he know that such a simple action of his made Xu Xin's eyes sparkle and the corners of her mouth involuntarily rose slightly.
She could tell with her toes that the survivors in the shelter must be keeping an eye on the situation here.
Although she was very unhappy that she only changed 3 bottles of water in the end, she was secretly pleased that Xia Mu had quickly gotten rid of all the rotten corpses.
See, even without your shelter, we can survive this apocalypse on our own!
"You won't be angry if I give away the extra water just now?"
Xu Xin followed Xia Mu's footsteps and asked cautiously.
After all, it was Xia Mu who rescued her, and these supplies could be said to have originally been Xia Mu's assets. She took the initiative to take out the water, and she didn't know if Xia Mu would be angry.
"It's nothing, it's just three cans of herrings."
In fact, Xia Mu knew very well in his heart that the reason why Xu Xin put down the water and pulled him away was because he had deep considerations.
Zhang Dashan was no match for him at all, but if he was killed just for these nine bottles of water, the remaining one hundred or so survivors would lose their protection, and they would most likely be slaughtered by the dark creatures.
Xu Xin must have thought of this and didn't want to kill innocent people again, so he swallowed his anger and returned the water.
Although there should be no soft-heartedness in the apocalypse, if they kill innocent people just for their own benefit, what is the difference between them and dark creatures?
"oh."
Xu Xin glanced at Xia Mu secretly, her heart as sweet as honey. Ever since the incident they had gone through yesterday, they seemed to have become more in tune with each other.
"By the way, Xu Xin."
"What?"
"Aren't you curious about me?"
Are we finally going to talk about this topic?
When Xu Xin heard Xia Mu's words, her heart tightened slightly.
Ever since he rescued her, she had always had a question in her mind: Why was this man so powerful?
Although his body looked frail, it contained incredible strength. Men much larger than him were no match for him.
His motorcycle was modified, and he slaughtered countless dark creatures with his two machine guns.
Especially the artificial intelligence Edith in the motorcycle helmet, which is not a product that can be achieved by the technology of this era.
She knew that Xia Mu was not an ordinary person, but she never dared to ask him because she knew that when he wanted to tell her, he would tell her naturally.
And now, she finally waited for Xia Mu to bring it up.
"Well, I'm waiting for you to tell me."
"If I ask you, you will definitely be embarrassed, right?"
Xia Mu looked at her in a daze, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Actually, I"
He was about to tell everything, but at this moment, Zhang Dashan came over with more than ten strong men in the shelter.
These people were all fighters selected by Zhang Dashan. Although they looked harmless, their eager looks made Xu Xin grab Xia Mu's sleeve involuntarily.
"Little brother, you are quite skilled. Have you ever been a soldier?" Zhang Dashan looked completely different from before. He looked at Xia Mu with surprise and admiration, and even his tone of voice became much softer.
Xia Mu had no intention of answering. He glanced at Zhang Dashan, then at the young men he brought with him, and said expressionlessly, "What's the matter?"
The cold tone made Zhang Dashan's face freeze, but for the sake of his own plan, he suppressed his anger.
"My tone just now was not very nice, and I didn't recognize the real talent. Little brother, you have such great skills, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"There are these disgusting things everywhere outside now. It's very dangerous. Why not stay in my little shelter? At least there is strength in numbers and safety is guaranteed, right?"
Looking at Zhang Dashan's cautious look, Xia Mu finally reacted.
It turned out that this person wanted to recruit him and make him his thug.
In the apocalypse, while gathering together for warmth is indeed a rare thing, sometimes one also has to consider whether others are trustworthy. Not everyone is worth risking his life for.
Xu Xin was the first teammate he recognized. The two of them had fought together against monsters infected by dark spores. They could be said to be friends for life and death.
He was willing to risk his life for her because she had also risked her life for him.
But Zhang Dashan, who relied on his own abilities to form a gang and build a shelter, and arbitrarily distributed food and water to others, was not someone he would consider selfish and profit-seeking.
Before he could even finish his words, Xia Mu pulled Xu Xin and pretended to leave.
Zhang Dashan also saw Xia Mu's determination. His expression changed, and then he seemed to have made a great decision. He stomped his feet hard, gritted his teeth and shouted at Xia Mu's back.
"Little brother, wait! Don't you want to know the secrets of these dark creatures?!"
Xia Mu's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Zhang Dashan was delighted and took the opportunity to say, "Don't you want to know how I, an ordinary veteran, can kill so many corpses with my bare hands and protect these hundred or so people from danger?"
"That's because, within these dark creatures, lies a secret that can change the future of all mankind, a secret known only to me!"
