"Little girl, why do you come here to work?"
The middle-aged woman panted for a while and finally regained some strength. She looked at Shi Rou and asked with a kind smile.
Shi Rou smiled slightly at the middle-aged woman and replied:
"I just came to the Xiaosangshan Safety Zone last night. I'm alone and don't have any skills. If I don't do these jobs, I really don't know what other jobs I can do!"
"oh......"
The middle-aged woman nodded, and Shi Rou's answer confirmed her doubts.
Although Shi Rou has a straight face most of the time, like a playing card, when she works, she is very serious and unambiguous. Her appearance looks weak and pitiful. If it weren't for the middle-aged woman who had just been Working with Shi Rou, she didn't know that this beautiful girl was not only not pretentious at all, but was also more down-to-earth than most people.
Shi Rou helplessly looked at the blood blisters on her hands, found a rag strip from her pocket, and wrapped the rag strip around her palms several times. This could avoid further deepening of the wound, and at the same time, it could also provide some relief. Protective effects.
"When new skin grows out again and again, and the old skin is worn out again and again, thick calluses will form on the palms of your hands. With these calluses, you won't be afraid of being scratched when working. But it's a pity, girl, that you have so many Beautiful hands!"
The middle-aged woman looked at Shi Rou's palm and let out a sigh.
"Little girl, listen to the elder sister's advice! While you still have physical strength, your clothes are clean enough, and your body is not skinny and skinny, hurry up and find a supporter! You are so beautiful and good-looking, this Nothing good comes of being in the safe zone of cannibalism!
We women are at the lowest level in this world. If no one takes care of us and protects us, we will only be bullied in all kinds of ways! "
When the middle-aged woman said this, her tone was quite complicated. It seemed that she had experienced this. She wanted to struggle and resist in her heart, but she was unable to resist and could only be forced to accept the reality...
"Isn't there someone from the military or Xiao Sangshan officials who will take care of it?" Shi Rou asked in confusion.
The middle-aged woman smiled bitterly, lowered her voice and said in Shi Rou's ear:
"Survivors like us in the outer area are at the bottom, no different from slaves. We serve those in the inner area, and the official side is only responsible for protecting the core members of the inner area. The closer we live, the safer we are, like The authorities will not care about the life and death of us survivors at the lowest level.
Only people in the military will treat everyone equally, but their main responsibility is to protect the safety of the safe zone and guard the high wall. They cannot interfere with internal management. At most, they can put some pressure on the top officials. "
Hearing what the middle-aged woman said, Shi Rou frowned even more. She originally thought that leaving the Evolution City and coming to this safe zone meant she entered the light from darkness, but now it seems that as long as she is in this big world of the end of the world, Under the background, any place or corner is a relatively dark place.
Is there no place that can be considered a pure land in the last days?
Shi Rou thought unwillingly in her heart that she was not willing to give up her struggle. Even if there was no hope, she would still have the last glimmer of light and expectation in her heart without seeing the end.
Shi Rou inexplicably thought of Chen Fei's figure and what Kong Xue said to her. Compared with the distortion and ugliness of human nature, Chen Fei's loveliness seemed not worth mentioning at all in the end of the world, and even that was not worth mentioning at all. It's not considered to be a playboy.
Shi Rou shook her head vigorously. She also knew the importance of a backer, but it was really difficult to find her ideal backer. Although her figure and appearance were her biggest advantages, Shi Rou didn't want to pass this at all. The only way to get the appreciation and recognition of others is to exchange your body and dignity. It doesn't matter if you don't need that kind of protection...
The middle-aged woman saw the struggle in Shi Rou's eyes and still persuaded her:
"Your conditions will probably be noticed by the second-generation people in the inner area soon. They will try every means to get you, and you want to get shelter before then and find a backer who can protect you. , the Evolver Squad is a good choice.
girl……
I can help you make connections. The captain and vice-captain of the Wild King Team are both very powerful evolvers. As long as you become their woman, then you will have someone to support you in the safe zone, and you can also live inside. In the area, no matter what the second generation wants to do, you have to look at the face of the Evolution Team!
Do you...want to think about it? "
After hearing this, Shi Rou finally understood why the middle-aged woman would talk to her so much. Sure enough, there is no pure kindness without reason in the last days.
Even kindness is mixed with other things. This is the sorrow of the end of the world and the sorrow of human nature.
Shi Rou secretly clenched her fists. She hated the feeling of being picked around like goods! She just wants to live by her own efforts. No matter how dirty and tiring the work is, at least her heart is clean and her soul is as light as a feather.
Shi Rou didn't get angry directly, but just said a few words to the middle-aged woman casually. After that, she became silent, using a hard shell to protect herself and pretend to be her truest self.
The ten-minute rest time always feels like it ends in the blink of an eye, and the physical fatigue does not even get any relief.
Just as Shi Rou was about to get up and continue working, she saw a wretched-looking middle-aged man walking towards him with a smirk.
"Hey! New guy! You can put your work aside for now. There is a shortage of manpower over there in the quarry. Go over there!"
As the middle-aged man spoke, his eyes roamed Shi Rou's body unscrupulously. This extremely aggressive nature made Shi Rou feel disgusted in his heart.
"Yu Changgui! This girl...is the one that the Wild King Squad is interested in. You..."
The middle-aged woman looked at the sign in Yu Changgui's hand, but still hesitated to speak.
If she could successfully introduce such a beautiful girl to the Wild King team, once she did, she would be able to get enough food for several days.
Although this girl was introduced to serve both the captain and the vice-captain of the Wild King Team, compared to the female survivors in the trading area, this should be a very good choice.
"Cai Shufen... put away those little thoughts of yours!
This girl has only been here for the first time, and you said she was spotted by the Wild King Team? They probably haven't even seen this girl's face...
Are you trying to push this girl into the fire pit? The two brothers of the Wild King Team tortured and broke down so many women. The fate of those women was not even as good as those in the trading area. You did this for a little food. Isn't this a bit shameless? "
Yu Changgui stared at the middle-aged woman with a half-smile, and the middle-aged woman's face turned green and red. Obviously, her true purpose was revealed, which made her a little angry.
Yu Changgui flipped the sign in his hand nonchalantly and said angrily:
"You old cabbage gangster! You are so old that you think you can climb the big tree of the Wild King Team?
Stop dreaming!
What does the Wild King Squad like you want from you?
I just gave you some food. After eating, didn’t you still have to come here to work?
If you don't want to suffer, just be honest. If the two brothers from the Wild King team come over tomorrow, I promise to take good care of you in the future! "
The middle-aged woman's face gradually turned pale. She could tell the truth of what Yu Changgui said. As long as he was given the most tiring and painful job, with insufficient food and poor rest, he would be dead in a few days. Totally broken.
And once a person collapses, he cannot continue to work. Without work, there is no food. After an infinite vicious circle, there is only one result.
The change in the middle-aged woman's face made Yu Changgui very satisfied. He liked this feeling of using chicken feathers as arrows very much.
When the ugliness in his heart was pulled out by the two of them, Shi Rou chose to remain silent. He was angry at this damn apocalypse, and even more disgusted with the distortions of human nature. But living in this cannibal apocalypse, if you want to live, you must repeat it. Struggling painfully, this is something Shi Rou understood in the Evolution City.
Without saying a word, Shi Rou honestly followed the wretched middle-aged man and left the wood area and walked towards the stone area.
Due to geographical advantages, the Xiaosangshan Safety Zone chose to mine local materials by blasting a mountain for the gravel needed to build the wall. This can not only meet the needs of construction. After blasting the mountain, the Xiaosangshan Safety Zone will The space will also become larger to facilitate the construction of internal buildings...
