The matter is over. Yu Yanbin and his companions were exhausted after a long battle, and now they can finally relax and catch their breath.
As soon as Cheng Shaolin finished, he hurriedly walked to the back and quickly went to Li Xiao to check if she had any wounds.
Li Xiao is fine, just a little tired. Running around like that is quite tiring.
Yu Yanbin was very happy to see that everyone was alright; it was good that everyone was safe.
The situation was critical at the time, and injuries were inevitable. It was unavoidable, as long as no one was killed.
He patted Cheng Shaolin on the shoulder, gesturing with his eyes what to do with the things on the ground.
Cheng Shaolin looked at him, his meaningful gaze making Yu Yanbin understand. Yu Yanbin pondered for a moment and nodded.
She put her arm around Li Xiao's shoulder and walked towards the car.
The others exchanged glances, wondering how this would end.
Xiao Pengtian was also confused. Meng Yang didn't say anything and followed Cheng Shaolin to the car.
Tian Tian and Xiao Peng followed, while Yu Yanbin gestured to Qiu Fengyu, who had also met him before, and calmly turned and left.
Yu Yanbin called to Shao Jie, and soon the people in front heard the sound of gunfire.
Everyone was curious and prepared to turn around to look, but Cheng Shaolin grabbed Li Xiao's hand and pulled her forward forcefully, not letting her turn around.
Li Xiao looked at him strangely, not understanding what was wrong with him.
Cheng Shaolin just smiled and looked at her.
Looking into his eyes, Li Xiao understood what was going on.
I've never seen a pig run, but I've seen pork. I also know what it's all about.
He lowered his head, said nothing, and walked straight to the car.
When Tian Tian and the others heard the sound, they all turned around and saw that the group of people who had been on the ground were now lying flat on the ground, without making any noise.
Tian Tian stood there, stunned. Only Meng Yang, Qiu Fengyu, and Xiao Peng turned and left as if nothing had happened, only glancing at her briefly.
Seeing Tian Tian still standing there blankly, Meng Yang stopped and called out to her, "Tian Tian, let's go."
Tian Tian turned around when she heard the call and responded.
She walked blankly toward Meng Yang, the sound of the gunshot still echoing in her head. Her heart pounded uncontrollably.
Seeing that she still couldn't accept it, Meng Yang had no choice but to ask, "Tian Tian, do you think you did something wrong?"
Tian Tian raised her head blankly. Had she made a mistake? She was conflicted.
I've never experienced such a bloody scene before; it's the first time I've seen it, and I can't accept it right away.
She shook her head, unsure of what to say. "I... I don't know either. I've never seen it before, and I'm a little scared." Her voice was soft, revealing her frustration.
Meng Yang patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, "You need to understand that if you don't do this, it's like letting a tiger return to the mountains. You saw how they treated us before; they weren't polite at all. Do you know what would have happened if Shao Lin and the others hadn't come back?"
Tian Tian stared blankly at Meng Yang, who was gazing ahead, and was momentarily lost in thought.
Yeah, those people were trying to kill us before. If Xiaoxiao and the others hadn't come back and saved us, we might all be dead. My fate would definitely not be good. That fat guy was always looking at me with that disgusting look; just thinking about the consequences sends chills down my spine.
Thinking of this, Tian Tian's eyes cleared, and she understood that this was an inevitable outcome.
The apocalypse has arrived; the rules of the game cannot be measured by the framework of peaceful societies. Now it's survival of the fittest, and the strong rule.
Tian Tian smiled and said "thank you" to Meng Yang. Meng Yang was relieved to see that Tian Tian had figured things out; she could still distinguish right from wrong, which was good. He was worried about those who stubbornly couldn't understand and were stuck in a rut—that would be troublesome.
Having lived in this apocalyptic world for so long, this is the first time they've faced death. It's either their own death or the death of someone else. Their emotions are turbulent, but they'll need time to adjust.
Li Xiao was also thinking about it. She knew in her heart that she would have to face these things eventually and adapt to them eventually.
She remained silent, and Cheng Shaolin thought she was unhappy and was frightened.
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong?" she asked with concern.
Li Xiao turned to look at him, shook her head and replied, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something."
What are you thinking about?
"It's nothing, I was just thinking that I have to get used to facing these things. I'm fine, just overthinking."
Cheng Shaolin looked down at her and said softly, "Yes, you're right. We have to get used to it. We can't afford to have fewer of these kinds of things in the future. Either we become the best, or we get trampled underfoot. There's no legal system now, so we can't be as merciful as before. If you're merciful to others, they won't be merciful to you."
Li Xiao nodded in agreement; that was indeed the case.
The others following behind also overheard their conversation and were pondering how to deal with situations like today's in the future.
They are all people who adapt to the current environment and can figure things out quickly.
The women who were hiding were terrified and almost screamed.
My eyes were wide open, and my heart was pounding wildly.
Kill! Murder!
They killed him without warning!
But these people remained calm and unperturbed, as if nothing had happened.
Zhou Lingyu's heart felt like it was being squeezed tightly, and she could hardly breathe. She was terrified; Cheng Shaolin had just glanced at her. Although it was just a fleeting glance, she knew in her heart that it was a warning.
She was terrified. Although he wasn't the one who did it in the end, she saw it. Yu Yanbin had been making eye contact with him earlier. This man was truly ruthless.
She had offended Li Xiao before and even argued with her, so she was terrified. Her heart raced with panic; would he kill her?
If Cheng Shaolin knew what she was thinking, he would only scoff.
In her own imagination, the group arrived at the car, Xiao Peng stepped forward, opened the car door, and everyone got in.
Everyone has something on their mind. After experiencing so much today, it's up to them to figure things out on their own.
Li Xiao slowly adjusted her emotions; she knew she had to go through this eventually, it was just a matter of time.
Cheng Shaolin looked at Li Xiao with concern, afraid that she would be frightened. It was her first time witnessing murder, and she wondered if it would leave a lasting trauma.
Having witnessed living people turn into zombies, what is there that cannot be faced? It's just that I'm being sentimental.
Li Xiao chuckled. There might be more to come. If she couldn't accept these, how would she survive?
I almost became someone else's fish on the chopping block, completely at their mercy. And I'm still worrying about it? Am I crazy?
Li Xiao suddenly realized that since it was all about survival of the fittest, she should become so powerful that no one would dare to provoke her, so that no one would be so tactless as to come up and die.
If you have the strength, who are you afraid of?
Seeing Li Xiao's expression, Cheng Shaolin understood that she had figured it out, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He patted her head, thinking, "Xiao Xiao is so smart; she can understand so quickly."
Li Xiao glanced at Cheng Shaolin, speechless, brushed his hand away, and turned to look at Tian Tian.
