Abnormal survival in the end times

Chapter 177 Brother and Sister
Just in case, we took the same route back as we came. Although the journey here was not all smooth, there were no major problems overall. As for minor problems, we just solved them easily.

but now
Xi Yu stopped the car and exchanged a glance with Zhang Shaoda. They first looked at a pair of young boys and girls who suddenly ran to the middle of the road and fell to the ground with panic on their faces. Then they looked at a dozen people running towards them with sticks and machetes in the distance, about a hundred meters away on the side road.

It was obvious that the people behind were chasing the young couple.

"Brother, run!"

Under the light of the car lights, the two were thinly dressed, thin, and pale. The boy tried to help the girl up, but failed after several attempts, and he fell to the ground himself.

If it weren't for his excellent hearing, Xi Yuzhen would have suspected that they did it on purpose, deliberately trying to scam me.

In fact, before he approached the fork in the road, he heard hurried and chaotic footsteps. Their car drove towards this side, and the direction of the footsteps did not change. Of course, it is not ruled out that he saw their car lights and subconsciously ran towards this side.

In either case, when they ran to the middle of the road and fell to the ground, even though the sound of brakes covered it up, Xi Yu still heard the crisp sound of broken bones.

The car didn't hit them, they just bumped into each other when they fell.

But the boy was so busy helping his sister that he didn't notice that her right leg was in the wrong position on the ground.

"Brother, don't worry about it, just run away, I can't get up"

Maybe because she was too scared, she covered up the pain from her broken leg. But even so, the girl knew that there was something wrong with her leg. Neither of them cared to look at the car that had stopped because of them, but only looked behind them in panic.

The car lights clearly illuminated the bloody wounds on the necks of the two men. Because they were too thin, the blood vessels underneath the exposed skin were clearly visible.

It is not surprising that he looks like he has lost too much blood and is malnourished. After all, since the end of the world, there are many people who are not well fed and clothed.

From the time they fell on the road to the time the car stopped, it seemed like a long time, but in fact it was only a minute or two.

But in just one or two minutes, the people chasing behind were about to arrive.

There were two cars driving on the road late at night. Anyone with common sense would know that the people in the cars must be no ordinary people.

So the group of people who were obviously chasing the young couple from behind stopped about ten meters away from the car with fear.

The leader was a flat-headed man with a scar on his forehead. Judging from his strong physique, it was obvious that he was a person with special powers.

Facing the car windows on their side, Zhang Shaoda in the passenger seat and Kang Erbao in the back seat both rolled down the windows at the same time and looked at them with indifferent expressions.

"Friends." The leading man immediately said when he met their eyes, "We're sorry to block your way. We'll take them away right now."

Several people didn't get off the car. Does that mean they don't want to meddle in other people's business?

This is best.
The leading man breathed a sigh of relief, but when he waved his hand to ask his men to bring over the young man and woman who were slumped on the ground and unable to get up, the back door of the car suddenly opened with a click.

Kang Erbao got out of the car. The door was half open and he could clearly see two people sitting in the back seat.

Seeing Kang Erbao walking straight towards the young man and woman in front of the car, the leading man's face changed. He took two steps forward and said, "My friend, these two are our people. They made a mistake and were dissatisfied with the punishment, so they knocked out the guard and ran away."

"Is that right?"

Kang Erbao ignored the leading man. He walked up to the two teenagers, looked down at them and asked.

"no!"

The girl looked up at Kang Erbao. She seemed not to have expected the people in the car to get out. To be honest, she and her brother had no intention of committing fraud. They were originally running in this direction, and when they saw the car, they wanted to rush across the road to the village opposite.

If they had not been hungry for so many days and had not fallen down due to weak legs when running to the road, they would have already entered the deserted village across the street.

It’s not that they don’t want to let the car pass before getting back on the road, but time waits for no one, and they are afraid of being caught, so they can only run forward regardless.

The brother and sister, who were originally in despair, now had a glimmer of hope in their eyes. They looked across and said in trembling voices, "They are robbers. They robbed our house and killed our parents."

The girl's tears rolled down her cheeks, while the boy glared at the group of people with anger in his eyes.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

The leading man scolded the girl, "You can't be blamed for making a mistake, right? Come over here quickly. You are delaying their journey. How can they forgive you?"

The man's last sentence was spoken in a heavy tone, clearly threatening, as if to warn her, if you want to ask for help, others have to be willing to save you?

After that, he looked at Kang Erbao and said calmly, "My friend, the road is wide and we can go our separate ways. It's the end of the world, you don't still want to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, do you?"

As he spoke, he gestured to the back, and more than a dozen people immediately stepped forward and surrounded the two cars.

Kang Erbao's expression remained calm. When he turned his head to look over, the leading man bumped his fists together with a fake smile, "We'll take the people away, and you guys go on your way, just pretend you didn't see anything, okay?"

"What if I say no?"

"No? Ha!" The man sneered, "Since you don't want to drink the toast, don't blame us for being rude."

After he finished speaking, he raised his right hand and swung it. The three men in front of Kang Erbao raised their sticks and hit him hard, while the others jumped up and smashed at the two cars.

In addition, about five meters behind the leading man, a short man turned around and ran back after seeing the gesture of putting his head behind his back.

Unfortunately, he let out a scream before he ran ten meters.

Before the leading man could turn around, he saw three of his men attacking the man standing at the front of the car. Before they could get close to him, they were punched and kicked away. The attack was so fast that he didn't have time to react.

Yes. Speed ability?

What he didn't know was that this wasn't the speed ability he thought it was, but just an instinctive reaction during normal training.

Lao Sheng also floated down at this time. In the night when there was only car lights lighting up, he whizzed around the two cars like a ghost. Then those who should fall down fell down, and those who should lie down also lay down.

When he returned to the back door of the car, the knife in his hand was back in its sheath.

Kang Erbao and Lao Sheng turned their heads at the same time to look at the only leading man still standing at the scene. Even though the light was limited, they could see that the other person's face was as pale as a ghost, and the pride he had just shown had long disappeared.

The leading man wanted to say something, but he opened and closed his mouth but no word came out.

Although he killed many people because of robbery after the end of the world, most of them were the elderly, the weak, women and children. Every time he would intimidate them first, then threaten them, and only kill them when they were really disobedient and made him angry.

How could someone just kill someone without saying anything?

Or a mutant.

Damn, these people have no moral principles!

Why don't you just say you have superpowers and you're awesome, and then we just retreat and leave them alone? Why do you have to take lives?
The man's forehead was covered with sweat. While he was thinking about the tough guy he had encountered, his feet were slowly moving backwards.

But before he could turn around and run away, an enlarged face suddenly appeared in front of him, and then his chest felt cold. He slowly lowered his head and saw a knife stuck in his heart.

"Captain, do we need to take them away?"

The brother and sister took Lao Sheng and Kang Erbao to the gang's lair. Originally, the boy could take them alone, but he was obviously worried about his sister and insisted on carrying her along.

That thin body looks like it could be blown down by a gust of wind, so what would it be like if it carried someone on its back?

Even so, he still gritted his teeth and moved forward step by step.

It made several people feel sympathetic.

But the reason for taking them away is not just because of this. This place is not far from the Red Stone Bay Base and they don't want to be seen.

A lean camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how strong Jia is, he is the head of a base. If he finds out that Yu Chengping's death is related to them, it will give them an excuse to take over Pengcheng.

Therefore, apart from this brother and sister, they would kill everyone else so decisively.

Of course, there is no need to keep such scum any longer.

"Then take it with you."

The brother and sister didn't know that their unintentional car stop tonight would change their lives and destiny.

"We were the only family left in our village. They seemed to have come from a base, saying they were out looking for food. At first they wanted our family to move to the base, but my parents refused. Then, while my parents were cooking for them, they beat them to death under the pretext that the food was not tasty."

The girl lay on her brother's back, crying as she spoke. Lao Sheng felt sorry for her crying. He glanced at the boy who was walking with gritted teeth and changed the subject, "Why isn't your brother talking?"

Could he be mute like Uncle Dong?
Of course, I don't mean to discriminate against the dumb by thinking this way, I'm just asking casually.

"No, my brother can speak. He, he was harmed by those bad guys. We had a pot of very spicy peppers at home, and those bad guys forced my brother to eat them all. After he finished eating, his throat was no longer able to make any sound."

Lao Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and comforted the girl, "That's good, just take care of it."

"Ah."

The girl hugged her brother's neck, turned her head slightly and looked at the two of them timidly. She knew she should say thank you, after all, they killed all the bad guys in order to save them.

but
Thinking about what their family of four had experienced in the city community and on the way back since the end of the world, she didn't know if they were good people. After killing the remaining few, would they take away the food in their house?
Or did they kill the brother and sister while robbing them?
With this uneasy mood, the brother and sister brought Lao Sheng and Kang Erbao to their doorstep.

"The one sitting in the main room drinking is their boss. You, you guys should be careful, he is very strong." Her father died at the hands of this man, with one punch, just one punch, his brains were knocked out. Her mother went up to fight, but was stabbed in the stomach by him.

Thinking of this, the girl's tears began to fall again.

But her brother put her down at this time. He patted his sister's head soothingly, and when he stood up, there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

He looked at the knife in Lao Sheng's hand, then knelt down in front of Lao Sheng.

This sudden kneeling scared Lao Sheng. He took two steps back and whispered to the boy, "Don't do this. Get up quickly."

He thought the boy was thanking him for saving his life until he pointed at the knife in his hand, then raised his hand to point at his own yard, and then made a chopping gesture with his hands.

Lao Sheng understood and wanted to borrow his knife.

"The man inside killed our father."

The girl choked up and whispered to explain, then anxiously reached out to pull her brother, "Brother, no, you can't beat him."

But the boy ignored his sister. He knelt on the ground, looking up at Lao Sheng intently.

"Okay, get up. I'll let you take the last blow."

It’s not a big deal, just a waste of time.

Then the boy actually kowtowed to Lao Sheng.

If you can’t persuade him, just let him be.

The girl sat at the base of the wall outside, and the boy walked in front, taking Lao Sheng and Kang Erbao with him, and walked towards the yard of their own home with its door open.

The reason why the door was not closed was, of course, to wait for the two of them to be caught again.

The reason they saved the lives of the two siblings was not because they were kind, but because they both had superpowers.

What the girl didn't say just now was that the pot of chili peppers her brother was forced to eat were produced by him himself.

Both the brother and sister are of the Wood type, but their abilities are not very strong. For example, the boy can only produce one pot of peppers at a time, and then he needs to rest for a few days to recover.

The girl is similar to her brother. She can only help one cabbage to grow at a time, and then she needs to rest for a few days.

But even so, it was enough for their family.

When the gang first came, the brother and sister did not reveal their abilities, and their parents repeatedly told them not to tell anyone.

Even though the two were killed, they didn't reveal anything. But later, in order to protect his sister from being violated, the brother had no choice but to tell the truth.

Although this action preserved the sister's innocence, because they killed their parents, their eldest brother wanted to tame them by whipping them, and at the same time wanted to scare them so that they would not dare to run away.

Because this group of people will leave here and return to the base tomorrow, and they have already agreed to send the brothers and sisters to the base commander.

Hearing the word "send", the brother and sister instinctively felt disgusted and fearful, so they desperately escaped at night while they were drinking.

It’s a pity that they discovered us before we even left the village.

However, when they thought of the ending of that group of people, the brother and sister felt very happy.

No matter whether the people in the two cars we encountered were good or bad, as long as they killed the people they wanted to kill but didn’t have the ability to kill, then they would be considered good people!
Thinking of this, the girl Lan Jing let out a sigh of relief, and her uneasy heart calmed down for no reason. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly and a smile appeared on her face.

When he heard the screams coming from the main hall in his own yard, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

She was so stupid that she was actually afraid of those two people just now, worried that the brother and sister would escape from the wolf's den and fall into the tiger's den.

So what about the tiger's den?
What could be worse than their current situation?
Even if it was bad, they had helped them get revenge, so at worst they would just give up their lives.
good night!
