"Fuck you, are you looking for death?"
"You're the one who wants to die. If you have the guts, stop talking nonsense. Come on, let's try it!"
"Just try it, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
The "war" was about to break out, but Wang Ergou's exclamation brought them back to their senses.
“I dug it up, I dug it up!”
The two men hurried to take a look and saw a tattered straw mat under Wang Ergou's feet.
And inside the straw mat was Sun Yue'e, who had just passed away that morning.
The three men hurriedly pulled Sun Yue'e out, threw her into the pit, and then quickly filled the pit.
It was even camouflaged. At first glance, it looked as if it had never been dug up.
Chen Yunwei saw everything clearly in the moonlight that rose in the second half of the night. She was so frightened that she raised her hand to cover her mouth, fearing that she would scream out of excitement.
Qin Siyue also had goose bumps all over his body.
I was struggling in my mind, were these people trying to steal the old lady away for a ghost marriage, or...
Thinking of that answer, he couldn't help but shudder. There was a hint of fear in his eyes as he looked at Qin Jianye.
After Qin Jianye noticed it, he turned his head and gave her a warning look.
The three of them squatted behind a bramble bush and waited for a long time until Wang Ergou and his companions left with sly eyes before they stretched out their numb hands and feet.
"Dad, are they eating people?" Qin Siyue's voice was horrified, his eyes red.
For her, a recent graduate who had received more than a decade of education in the core socialist values, this was too horrifying. She couldn't accept it for a while.
Qin Jianye didn't say anything and gave the answer with silence.
Chen Yunwei, however, regained her composure after a brief moment of shock and comforted Qin Siyue: "Don't be afraid, there are only half of them who are so desperate. Most people don't have the courage."
After saying that, he looked at Qin Jianye again: "What do you know? Tell me now. It's already this late, and you're still hiding it."
Qin Jianye touched his nose and organized his words: "Last time I went to the black market, wasn't I beaten up? Actually..."
Qin Jianye recounted how he discovered someone was engaging in the human flesh trade, pretended to leave, was beaten, and discovered the space.
"As soon as I smelled it, I knew it was wrong. A quick look later confirmed my suspicions.
But where did the meat come from? Did they kill someone, or dig up the body? I’m a little confused.”
Chen Yunwei took a deep breath and said, "Okay, Lao Qin, you dare to hide such a big thing, do you want to die?
I was wondering why the cut on your head was so big, it must be aimed at your life!"
Chen Yun snorted angrily, "No, I'm going to settle accounts with those beasts! Eating corpses is one thing, but they actually dared to covet my husband. I'll skin them alive!"
"Calm down, calm down. That business has only been running for so long, how can we overthrow it by just two people? Don't worry, this matter won't be so easy to get over!"
Qin Siyue held Qin Jianye's arm: "Dad, where is that old lady? Don't care?"
If she didn't know, it would be fine. But she clearly saw it. Could it be that someone really had eaten the old lady?
Qin Jianye really didn't want to care. Whether they ate people or not was none of his business. He had seen many more perverted people than this in the apocalypse.
If that black market bastard hadn't nearly killed him, he wouldn't have kept paying attention. And Wang Ergou, if he wasn't climbing over the wall to get beaten, he wouldn't bother to care about what he was doing.
But my daughter is innocent, a little flower that has never experienced the ravages of wind and rain, so it is normal for her to be soft-hearted.
He comforted her, "It's okay. It won't be a big deal for a while. When we get down the mountain, Dad will go and ask around and try to get the old lady's body back. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Siyue regretted his decision again: "No, no, no, Dad, they dare to eat people, what else can they not do? Don't let them kill you as a dish too."
Qin Jianye: "......"
Trying hard to suppress the urge to act violently, he asked sinisterly, "My dear, in your mind, am I your father so weak?"
"No, my dad is awesome. But Dad, I'm scared. I just want our family of three to be well!"
Never, ever risk your life. At most, if you are able, reveal the truth."
Qin Jianye felt somewhat relieved and patted Qin Siyue's little head to indicate that he understood.
Chen Yunwei also said: "Old Qin, although it is not right for us to intervene in this matter, I think after thinking about it, with our abilities, it is best to protect ourselves."
Qin Jianye said "hmm", and Chen Yunwei continued: "There is just one thing I don't understand. You said they should be honest when doing business, right?
What’s so delicious about an old lady’s meat? She’s been dead for a long time, and her blood has coagulated. How tough and fishy would it be? And ha…”
Qin Jianye felt terrible as he listened to his wife's analysis and discussion.
It turns out that his wife is the ruthless person who is suitable for the end of the world. Compared with her, he is so weak.
"Wife, if you say so, they still have to kill a few girls to eat something fresh and hot?"
Chen Yun rolled her eyes at Qin Jianye and said, "You don't understand. What good does a little girl have? Have you ever seen anyone eat an old hen or a sow?"
Oh, except for those who are in confinement after childbirth.
Take the meat sold in the market, for example. All of it comes from males. Chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle, and sheep—everything is eaten male. The meat is fat and tender.
So…”
Chen Yunwei looked Qin Jianye up and down and boldly concluded: "Men's flesh tastes better than women's flesh!"
Qin Jianye: “…” Speechless.
After a long while, he gave a thumbs up and said, "My wife, that's a good idea!"
Chen Yunwei raised her eyebrows proudly: "That's it!"
Then ask, “Where to now?”
"Digging a grave!"
The atmosphere was stagnant. After a brief silence, the three of them set off.
When we checked the nearest graves that Qin Jianye remembered, we found that they were all empty without exception.
"Damn, how many have they dug out!" They wouldn't have dug out all the dead bodies of the Qingshan Brigade in the past two years, right?
Qin Siyue remained silent, and even the knowledgeable Chen Yunwei was silent.
The excitement tonight was too great, and the two of them needed to slow down. A hint of dawn appeared in the east, and Qin Jianye took a deep breath: "Let's go home!"
Along the way, the silence was even greater than when we came.
Qin Siyue even wondered if this was the reason his family had traveled through time. Did God send them here to prevent this man-made disaster?
There is no answer, only sighs echoing in the mountains.
When it was just getting light, the family of three returned to the Qin family's old house.
Qin Jianye secretly put two kilograms of sorghum rice, a bag of dried mushrooms, and a bag of brown sugar into the kitchen.
Then he went back to the house, washed up with his wife and daughter, and lay on the warm kang in silence.
Half an hour later, he suddenly said, "This matter cannot be delayed. It must be resolved as soon as possible."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Chen Yunwei listened to the snoring of the person beside her and complained to her daughter, "Look, she really thinks she is a Bodhisattva and wants to control everything. She doesn't even consider whether we can do it!"
