“…” The fog cleared.
Bai Xiaolu then explained, "Sister, don't be afraid. I ate them simply because I was so hungry... During that time, there was really no food left in the tribe."
Shi Wuqing felt a little complicated: "You are really brave to be alive today."
Bai Xiaolu was a little happy, his ears blushing with embarrassment: "No... no, I can't kill two adults by myself, it was the He bird that helped me..."
"But! Neither Heniao nor I are bad people! It was Mom and Dad who wanted to eat me first...that's why I..."
Shi Wuqing nodded: "Xiaolu is very decisive."
Not only did he not sound scared, he sounded admiring of him.
Bai Xiaolu's lively expression paused, and he suddenly shouted, "Sister, don't betray everyone, don't betray me, otherwise, the consequences will be very bad."
Shi Wuqing curved her lips and smiled, but did not comment.
After all, she had experienced so many worlds in the past, so she was not frightened by Bai Xiaolu's experience. However, she inevitably had a deeper understanding of the difficulty of survival for the creatures in this world.
In the past, she stood too high up and knew that everyone's life was difficult, but she had never seen it as clearly as she does now.
Shi Wuqing did not think that Bai Xiaolu was going too far or that his mind was too twisted, because in such an environment, people like Bai Xiaolu were everywhere.
They are just trying to survive, and no one is qualified to stand on the moral high ground and criticize them.
"Is hunting at night also for food?" Shi Wuqing asked, thinking of the hunting activities that took place every night.
Bai Xiaolu was surprised by the sudden change of topic. He paused for a moment before replying, "No, I hunt just for fun. Those monsters disappear after being killed and can't be used as food."
"Happy?" Shi Wuqing was really surprised.
"Yes, not only children like to play it, adults like to play it too!" Bai Xiaolu explained with a smile:
"Humans die all the time for various reasons. Sometimes, it's interesting to let other species experience what it's like to be killed by humans—that's what the adults said!"
Shi Wuqing understood.
No wonder she was holding an umbrella; none of those people told her to give it up...
It turns out that hunting, which involves gambling with one's life, is considered by people to be entertainment and excitement.
Since it's entertainment...if she wants to bring an umbrella, naturally no one will care!
If she died because of this, probably no one would mock her and say that she deserved it. Instead, they would feel truly sad.
——Really, crazy.
Everyone went crazy.
While he clearly knows the fragility of human beings and the uncertainty of the future, and cherishes every companion, he also takes the initiative to risk his life just for the desire for revenge and the pleasure of killing.
"I probably can't go back to this world anymore..." Shi Wuqing sighed softly.
…
The people of the Red Sun Clan assumed that the mermaid was dead, and no one considered the possibility that she could escape.
Because of the mermaid's previous behavior, Shi Wuqing was suspected by everyone, but with You Ling's help, people soon apologized to Shi Wuqing out of guilt.
"What a pity. The mermaid cried out so many pearls..." someone said regretfully.
"What do you want that for?"
"It looks great! It can be strung into a bracelet!"
"The most regrettable thing is that the food that was right in my mouth flew away. Winter is about to begin... Alas!"
Shi Wuqing no longer listened to these people's sighs.
After knowing the infected souls beneath their skin, these seemingly normal words and actions were cast through a terrifying filter.
They are like clowns performing on stage, their every move is out of line, but they themselves are unaware of it.
——Who says that only objects are alienated?
These humans have mutated without even knowing it.
Shi Wuqing returned to her room, and the next moment after she closed the door, a voice was heard in the room.
