Chapter 86 "Reserve Food"
The thin woman had no choice but to carry each person out and place them in the fields outside.
By the time she had carried all the people on her back, she was so exhausted that she collapsed on the edge of the field, her whole body reeking of a foul stench.
Ye Shang glanced at these people; most of them were still alive, but their physical functions were all too poor.
There were fifteen people in total.
All of these people were used as reserve food by the villagers.
After a long while, some people regained their senses, and some came to their senses. When they saw Ye Shang and the others, some could not believe it, and some who had been filled with despair felt that the chains that had been removed from them had been removed.
He lay weakly in the field.
The woman turned around slightly, knelt on the edge of the field, looked at Ye Shang, and cried, "Actually, I sometimes secretly reminded those people with superpowers, but they didn't believe me. They thought their superpowers were very powerful and were unwilling to run away. A couple of times, the girls I encountered were timid and ran away in a hurry. I was even punished for that. If it weren't for my superpowers, I would probably have become someone's meal long ago."
Tian Cui sobbed and continued, "This village has never been a good place. Don't be fooled by the highway outside; it's actually quite far from the city. I was abducted here when I was young and have been here for over twenty years. I tried to escape, but I was always caught and brought back. They almost broke my legs, and they even took my child. I watched them eat my child. I wanted to kill them all, but I didn't dare. I'm just a woman. Even if I awakened my superpowers, I don't have any real ability."
Her tearful outpouring was a way of expressing the hardships she had endured over the past twenty years.
Meng Qiulan asked, "What about the other two women? They don't have any special abilities..."
Tian Cui looked at her and cried, "I don't have any special abilities, but there are so many men in the village, they all need to release their pent-up energy. They've all become tools for that purpose, even I... I often do it too..."
If only she had awakened some other power instead of water-based abilities, she might have been able to wipe them out.
She thought this way every time.
Ye Shang looked at the fifteen people lying there: ten were men, four were girls, and one was a little boy.
They were all lying there weakly, and could hear Tian Cui's words, but none of them could sit up. They survived on grass and water, and their stomachs were basically full of grass. They were really being raised like pigs.
Ye Shang sighed, "Go boil some water and have them wash everything, then cook all this rice into porridge."
She took out a bag of rice and said to the people in a calm voice, "Are you capable of standing up? At the village entrance not far away, in that house where you all lived, all the able-bodied men are still inside. You'll have to take revenge yourselves."
Those who managed to escape naturally followed their relatives and friends; they were both tragic and fortunate.
Tragically, their loved ones died by being eaten by their own kind, but fortunately, they encountered Ye Shang and others just before they were about to be eaten.
One of them gritted his teeth and forcefully propped himself up, his eyes red-rimmed: "I want revenge!"
Ye Shang said to Qing Li, "Those people have already been stunned by the electric shock. Just to be safe, let's go and keep watch."
He then said to Liang You, "Take your sister here and help out. Some people are too weak to do anything."
Seeing the two figures already far away, Meng Qiulan couldn't help but reach out Er Kang's hand. She was also injured! How could they treat her like this!
