Sometimes in life we have to do subtraction.
To save half of the people, the other half must be killed.
And to save the other half, the other half must die.
This is a hard question to decide.
At this moment, the cold little girl who became the focus of everyone did not open her mouth to speak, nor did she make a statement. It seemed that this was a statement. She didn't care about these trivial matters, and wanted the rest to decide who would go and who would stay.
After a moment of silence like a heavy mountain, someone finally took the lead to break the silence, with determination and sadness in his eyes, and he said firmly, "Do you remember the oath you took when you enlisted in the army?"
When it comes to taking the oath of enlistment, the spirit of some people in the team has obviously changed a lot.
That is a spiritual belief.
That is an unshakable spiritual belief.
Among the people present, some were selected from the earliest batch of practitioners in the army, just like Captain Fei and the man with double pupils that Fangzheng had met, they were selected from the military region and then trained secretly to become practitioners. Ten years ago, these soldiers became the first practitioners. When the recovery of spiritual energy began, these soldiers immediately responded quickly and spread all over the country to maintain the stability of the country after the changes in the world.
"Life and death are hard to tell! Long before we entered the blessed land, we had already written a suicide note. What should be said, we have all written it on the suicide note. If we die, these suicide notes will be transferred to the hands of relatives. We are willing to stay behind and wait for rescue , you first go out and seek help from the outside world.”
It was said that they would stay behind and wait for rescue, but everyone present knew very well that these people who stayed behind would stay in the blessed land forever, and they would not be able to get out for the rest of their lives.
The person who spoke was a man in his thirties and forties. He was a son, father, and husband who had parents who wanted to be filial and wives and children who were waiting to be reunited.
After he finished speaking, he immediately sat down cross-legged, motionless, with a face as firm as a rock.
Who can really face life and death calmly
On his resolute face, his eyes were closed tightly, and he didn't dare to open them, afraid that when he opened them, the face of his seven-year-old daughter would appear, and he was afraid that people would see the tears in the eyes of the iron-blooded man.
His daughter's mother passed away early. Because of his long-term work, his daughter has been brought up by elderly parents. The daughter who is only seven years old has already learned how to cook fried rice with eggs.
The biggest wish of her daughter is that on her birthday, he can ask for leave to go home once. She wants to cook a bowl of egg fried rice for her father herself.
One, two, three...
More people sat down where they were, willing to stay.
Someone was deeply touched, and sighed unbearably: "If we want to stay, it is for us old guys who have lived enough to stay. Don't learn to look down on life and death at such a young age."
But no matter how much I persuaded them, those people sitting on the ground were determined and refused to get up.
At this time, the atmosphere in the air became extremely depressed and depressed. The cold little girl who had not spoken all this time suddenly said coldly to the goat carrying the Lingyu: "Come into the mountain with me."
The cold little girl said: "This spiritual jade is not used to get out of the blessed land. This spiritual jade is not enough. I lack a coolie. You carry the spiritual jade on your back, and we will go into the mountains to dig a bigger spiritual jade."
Although the age is obviously eleven or twelve years old, and the voice is clear and clear, but the tone of the speech is old-fashioned.
The irritable goat was furious at first, and you really regarded me as a coolie. I am a sheep, but I am not an alpaca. Although it is only a word difference, you have seen this kind of coolie that requires strength to carry things since ancient times. Who uses sheep instead of cattle as envoys? Do sheep still need to plow the land
However, the goat immediately reacted again.
The cold little girl didn't speak at the beginning. It turned out that it wasn't for them to decide who would go and who would stay. It was because of her cold temper. She didn't bother to explain. From the very beginning, she saw that the spirit jade was not enough, so she made up her mind to go back to Duanshan and continue digging spirit jade! !
Unexpectedly, although this little girl has multiple personalities, she is still quite humane. The goat began to look up to her.
At this time, the others also reacted, and their eyes immediately showed joy.
But then, they all showed worry again. At this time, the broken mountain has turned into a raging flaming mountain...
"Didn't Broken Mountain be turned into a flaming mountain by you...Okay! My old sheep might try its best today!" The goat gritted its teeth, it was affected by the atmosphere, and it was ready to work hard.
"Sheep boy, if my old sheep is roasted to death in the Flame Mountain today, remember to burn a few whole roasted sheep to my old sheep every year on this death day."
Fangzheng: "..."
"You are a sheep, what do you want to roast a whole sheep sacrifice?"
"I want to burn you a sacrifice, but also burn you carrots or grass leaves?"
Goat: "After you people die, burn paper to stab people, and after the sheep die, roast the whole sheep. Seems logical, right?"
"Before my old sheep died, I roasted the whole sheep. It was burnt black all over. If you don't roast the whole sheep for my old sheep, if the ewes are not black girls, wouldn't they be cross-ethnic?"
Everyone: "..."
It's enough! !
The sad atmosphere of life and death that has been accumulated with great difficulty has been diluted by you.
"Let me go into the mountains with you, more people, more strength!" Fang Zheng volunteered.
Others also took the initiative to stand up and were willing to help, and everyone helped each other to tide over the difficulties together.
At this time, the cold little girl, with a cold temper, kept silent, and had already walked towards the direction of Duanshan. The sheep and the baby girl are enough."
Just as the goat finished speaking, suddenly, a cat's meow came from the ghost town above his head.
Although the cat's meow was very faint, and it was still far away from here, it was undoubtedly a cat's meow.
Everyone under the ground looked suspicious, the outside world had already been shrouded in darkness, where did the cat come from
When he heard the sound of cat meowing, Fangzheng was taken aback at first, but then his eyes showed surprise, then surprise.
This meowing sound... He couldn't be more familiar with it!
It's Xiao Hei's bloated cat! !
But then, Fangzheng was puzzled again, why did Xiao Hei appear in the ghost town at this time? Could it be that Xiao Hei is also trapped in the ghost town
But soon, Fangzheng discovered that things were not as simple as he imagined.
Because the meowing was getting closer and closer, and it was actually approaching them. The meowing of the cat seemed to be anxious, like a domestic cat that was lost from home, and was anxiously calling for its owner.
A house cat that can only walk freely under the cover of darkness
Jingle, jingle, jingle... The crisp ringing of the bell was heard clearly under the empty night sky. Fangzheng's face showed joy, that's right! It must be Xiao Hei!
Although he still doesn't know why Xiao Hei, the cat curse, can walk in the dark.
"Silly sheep, can you take me out to have a look, I feel that this cat... looks like my lost house cat."
The goat looked back at the cold little girl. The latter had stopped at some point, and seemed to have heard the meowing of a cat getting closer.
"Everyone wait for us, we will go back soon."
The goat carried the spirit jade on its shoulders, took Fangzheng with it, jumped out of the underground world of purgatory, and plunged into the dark world outside...
