"Looking for food." Shi Meng said casually, without any change in expression, as if she was talking about something unimportant.
"... " Liu Xun was stunned for a moment, but then he was relieved. These creatures from other dimensions regarded humans as food. In the eyes of humans, they were evil, but in the eyes of these creatures, humans were just food.
It's just like chickens, ducks, and fish. In their eyes, humans are evil, but humans only regard them as food.
In principle, there is no right or wrong in this matter, it is just the most basic food chain! This is how the world is, the strong prey on the weak, and the strong can dominate everything of the weak, including life!
"Yes, there is no good or evil in this world. It is this world that is wrong." Liu Xun said this, sighed, looked at Shi Meng, and continued: "Although I have set up a formation on the island, for the sake of safety, you should go back first."
Shi Meng nodded after hearing this, looked at Liu Xun, and said tenderly: "Well, you should be more careful too. You are not Lu Ya now, and you don't have the power to destroy everything."
Although the memories of Li Mengyao, Di Yi and Yan Chong were deleted, Shi Meng did not belong to the Three Realms. Like Liu Xun, she still had memories of that time.
After Shi Meng left, Liu Xun walked on the street. The S city, which used to be brightly lit, now became extremely gloomy! Although there were lights shining, it still couldn't get rid of the dull feeling.
About ten minutes later, Liu Xun stopped because of a scream coming from the front.
The screams came one after another, even mixed with crying, which sounded very harsh in the quiet and gloomy night!
Liu Xun's spiritual sense followed the sound all the way to the end. At this time, he could clearly see about six people and a two-meter-long insect. There were two or three corpses on the ground. The insect was probably not in a hurry to kill all these humans. It was estimated that it had regarded these people as prey that were doomed to die, and was slowly sucking a human brain.
Several people who were forced into a corner huddled together, screaming in despair from time to time. Their expressions were stiff, but Liu Xun knew that these people must be filled with panic, just like the woman when she first faced this creature.
The giant insect threw away the human brain it had sucked dry and scanned the six people with its eyes unscrupulously, as if it was picking out a more delicious brain.
The six people understood the insect's intention at once and stopped screaming collectively. No one wanted to die first. If this disgusting insect was full, it might leave.
The insect's greedy gaze soon stopped at a pretty girl. The girl who was targeted felt like she was in hell. Despair, fear, panic, etc. broke out in an instant!
She cried and hugged a middle-aged man's arm, saying loudly: "No, not me, not me!..."
The people around him all had complex and contradictory expressions, a mixture of sympathy and relief that it wasn't them.
She looked at the middle-aged man with the last glimmer of hope, but she despairingly discovered that the man who had made so many promises to her was evasive in his eyes. The man even forcefully pulled his arms out of her tight embrace!
This is how the world is. All vows made seem insignificant in the face of the fear of death! This is humankind, this is the meanness of human nature.
She was in despair. At that moment she finally realized that she was going to die, and she even felt completely hopeless.
The bugs crawled over and she closed her eyes.
Suddenly she found herself being pushed away, and a figure was covering her behind her. She opened her eyes and saw that it was the young boy, the boy who once said that he liked her, the boy who had been coldly rejected by her. At this moment, he turned around and smiled at her. Under the dim flashlight, that smile looked so sad and touching!
Tears quietly flowed across her delicate face, as if the day and the earth had stopped at this moment.
However, the insect did not stay still. It did not care about such childish behavior of human beings. Since someone was willing to come up and die first, it would not be in a hurry.
The boy looked resolutely at the bloody mouth approaching him. He held the girl's hand tightly. Death was at hand.
Everyone looked at the boy in shock. Some were moved, some thought he was stupid, but without exception, everyone believed that the boy was about to die!
Surprisingly, the giant insect's bloody mouth did not bite down, but turned away quickly, even with a hint of panic, and then... this invulnerable insect turned into a pool of meat paste!
It barely had time to let out a scream, everything happened so suddenly and so strangely!
The six people were almost all unable to think for a moment! This scene was completely beyond their comprehension!
"Da Da!..." The sound of leather shoes was heard. Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw a man wearing a black windbreaker. He had a handsome face, a strand of white hair in his black hair, and an old scar on his left eye. This man was looking at them!
This person was Liu Xun. Originally, he didn't want to get involved in this matter, but when he saw the loser standing in front of the woman without hesitation, his heart was touched.
It can be said that if the loser man hadn't done this, the six of them would have been eaten by bugs! But on the contrary, because of the loser man's actions, they were saved, although only temporarily!
"Everyone has the right to pursue love. As the saying goes, 'A friend in need is a friend indeed!' I believe that through this incident, you have seen a lot and have also seen a lot clearly!"
Liu Xun whispered to himself. At this point, he smiled slightly and continued, "So... Of course, everything now is unimportant. What you should do is to enjoy the pleasure of being alive!"
After Liu Xun's reminder, everyone finally realized from their shock that they had been saved! They immediately burst into ecstasy of escaping death, hugged each other, and repeatedly cried in a low voice: "We, we don't have to die!"
Everyone was thoroughly venting the tremendous despair they had just felt before dying!
"Thank you for wanting to save me!" In the end, the loser guy came to his senses first and knelt down in front of Liu Xun. Seeing this, the five people around him also knelt down immediately.
"My benefactor, what...what on earth is this?" the middle-aged man looked at Liu Xun and asked with some stammering.
They had never seen this kind of creature before. Not only the middle-aged men were curious, but even the women and the loser men were also curious.
"You don't need to know what this thing is, because the more you know, the more frightened you will be, and the faster you will die!" Liu Xun said casually without any emotion.

That is a requirement from above, and there is nothing ants can do about it, after all, they are working for others.
Well, anyway, ants are also helpless, and I don't want to explain too much. Life is like this, many things can't be done arbitrarily. I'm not the protagonist, so... I can't do whatever I want. (To be continued)
