doomsday lamb
Chapter 33
Two hours later, southwest of Shashi, the base of Langya City in Fengwei Mountain.
Today is Chen Xinyan’s second day out of seclusion. Many people gathered in the Langya City’s meeting hall. At the front of the crowd were Cao Liang, Qi Jingmin and Jin Youcai. There were many new ability users nearby.
And several representatives elected by ordinary evolutionists.
Duan Qing and Zheng Yueying stood behind Chen Xinyan, looking at Cao Liang and the other three angrily. Xing Wutian led many soldiers to guard around the hall, both to maintain order and as a deterrent.
"Hey, your Lao Shizi's 'self-management committee' came quite well today."
The first person to speak was Chen Xinyan. She was still wearing the same surgical white coat, square-toed flat boots, and a pair of wire-rimmed glasses. A sharp glance flashed through her groggy eyes from time to time.
Perhaps her joking tone made people feel slighted, or perhaps it was her condescending attitude on the podium that made Cao Liang feel quite unhappy, so Cao Liang also responded: "It's the 'Autonomous Association', please invite Chen Yuan
Please don’t call me by the wrong name again.”
"Oh oh oh, autonomous association." Chen Xinyan didn't seem to hear the smell of gunpowder in the other party's words. Instead, she held her arms and said, "Since it is autonomous, then you can govern yourself. Come to my base management committee to have some ideas."
Why bother?"
Without waiting for the other party to answer, Chen Xinyan lightly opened her red lips and curled up into a smile.
"It can't be that...'autonomy' is not enough, and you also want to 'govern' us by the way, right?"
Qi Jingmin on the side couldn't help but argue: "Dean Chen, you don't have to rush to blame us. Starting from yesterday, your management committee should be very clear about what our demands are."
"Oh, but I forgot." Chen Xinyan smiled even brighter, "How about you tell me more?"
"you!"
"It's nothing complicated," Cao Liang took over at the right time, "all we want is 'fairness'."
"fair?"
"Yes, fair."
Chen Xinyan put down her arms and said, "I'm all ears."
"Whether it was the Chinese era more than a century ago or the current coalition government era, the people have always been the masters of human society. Although all the means of production in society are transmitted in different ways on different assembly lines, they are actually the whole
It is common to all human beings, and this will not change even after a disaster."
Chen Xinyan closed her eyes, dug her ears and said, "Keep talking, I'm listening."
"It is true that the distribution of wealth in the society before the disaster was uneven and the gap between the rich and the poor was serious. On the eve of the disaster, there were even fewer people who could put their wealth to practical use like Langya City. Most people were separated from their wives and lost their families.
, the dignity and life that once existed were in pieces, and if it had not been taken in by the base, he might have died early.
Turned into a handful of loess. But imagine, is all this really fair to them? How many of them were useless to society? They fulfilled their responsibilities to society in the first half of their lives, but now they live
We are not as good as pigs or dogs. As the spirit of all things, we cannot control our own destiny. Is this fair?"
"Cao, don't change your mind."
Zheng Yueying got angry looking at this fat and greasy face. She wanted to interrupt but was stopped by Duan Qing.
"Yue Ying, let him speak." Duan Qing said with a cold face as she looked at the excited crowd nearby.
Chen Xinyan still had her eyes closed and showed no reaction, so Cao Liang continued calmly: "I think the management committee should have understood what we meant. No one has ever coveted the wealth of Langya City, and no one has planned to
The Management Committee will replace it. People just want an opportunity, an opportunity to protect their lives with their own strength, and an opportunity to safeguard freedom and democracy that represent human dignity. I think this is not the same as the original intention of the Management Committee to establish the Langya City base.
Not inconsistent."
"That's nice to say." Zheng Yueying muttered.
Cao Liang finally raised his voice and said: "The management committee has been delaying for so long. Dean Chen, you are here today. You have to give us an answer, right? What Mr. Cao said today was from the bottom of his heart, and what he said was based on the public opinion.
It’s for the sake of the stability and prosperity of Langya City. Thousands of people have gathered in the base now, and if we don’t start reforming, there will be big trouble sooner or later!”
Someone in the crowd suddenly echoed loudly: "That's right, we are also members of Langya City and the owners of this base. Why don't we have the right to participate in the management?"
"Yes, without the Autonomous Association, who will guarantee the rights and interests of ordinary people like us?"
The first one was followed by the second one, and there were an endless stream of responders. Some were whispering and whispering to each other, while others simply pointed at the people on the stage and complained loudly, as if they had an irreconcilable relationship with someone among them.
Hatred.
"I came early and had a good life. How can there be such a thing? People eat meat and we eat bran-thick vegetables. We are all human beings. They make a lot of money, but we can get a pitiful share. How can there be such a thing in the world?
Is this the case?"
"In the final analysis, you are still too selfish and make huge differences in distribution. In this kind of critical situation, you don't care about the overall situation and don't know how to share. What is the difference between you and animals?"
"Selfish people are like black sheep. Humanity will perish sooner or later in the hands of people like you!"
"Thank you for describing this place as paradise on the radio. If I had known, I wouldn't have come here."
"That is, if we are not given the treatment we deserve, we will leave!"
"Leave!" "Leave, leave!"
They would not know that if Lang Hua had not come here, if this was Fengwei Mountain in his previous life, Chaosandao and his Qinglong Society would have taught them what the weak should do. Of course, they would also have to pay for it.
An extremely painful price.
"It's better to have an autonomous association. If we unite, we will never be bullied again."
"You are right to join the Autonomous Association. Who else can you trust besides yourself these days?"
For a moment, the ordinary evolvers in the audience were excited. Although the new ability users did not speak out, they also surprisingly unanimously did not object.
They have always believed that the base officials did not pay enough attention to them and did not give them preferential treatment. Obviously they are also extremely noble ability users, but they do not have the best weapons, the best resources, and the best housing like the top brass of the base. In the Wolf
Although they are far away from Yacheng
Living a more prosperous life than ordinary evolved people, but still having to squeeze into a dormitory with other people and eating from a big pot, I have long been dissatisfied.
In the tense atmosphere, Zheng Yueying tugged on the corner of Duan Qing's clothes. Duan Qing held her hand as if to comfort her, but Zheng Yueying found that the palm of her hand was covered with fine sweat. In Duan Qing's eyes, she found the same worries as her own
Zheng Yueying couldn't help but feel panicked. It turned out that Duan Qing just knew how to hide her emotions, and she was not as calm as she seemed on the surface.
Today, Cao Liang once again put his so-called "demand" on the table. His ambition is obvious. It is obvious that he wants to force the palace, but he still wants a justifiable one. To put it bluntly, he is not confident in his own strength, otherwise he may put it on the table.
The ones on the negotiating table are spears and cannons!
Although this guy's words of benevolence, righteousness and morality were very pleasant, Duan Qing didn't want to believe a word of it. Cao Liang talked about unity and progress, but behind his back he fanned the flames and was busy brainwashing believers and buying people's hearts. To deal with this guy
This kind of person must not give in easily, otherwise if you agree to him now, who can guarantee that he will not push further in the future?
Today is different from the past. Today's Langya City is empty. Lang Hua is not there, Yang Bensheng and Lin Wenjin are not here, and even Lin Qian is leading a team to perform tasks outside. Almost all the talents in the base management committee who can take charge of their own affairs are out. It has to be said that Cao Cao
Liang chose an excellent opportunity for this "peaceful evolution". At this moment, they could only choose to rely on Chen Xinyan in front of them.
"You are not worthy of virtue, you are not worthy of what you have now, and you are not worthy of managing this base."
"Get off the stage and replace. Get off the stage! Replace!"
"Get off the stage! Replace!"
…
Amidst the noise, Chen Xinyan slowly opened her eyes and looked at Cao Liang quietly.
"Is this what you taught them to say?"
Cao Liang did not shy away from this gaze and replied: "How could this happen? People always only speak what they think in their hearts. I, Cao, can't control it."
"Well, as the cake gets bigger, there are always people who want to get a piece of it. This is not a rare thing."
Chen Xinyan smiled slowly, as if she was talking about something trivial, but how could Cao Liang admit that he was dirty in front of others, so he reiterated lukewarmly: "Dean Chen's words are serious, we just want to win them for people."
It should be a right.”
"So, do you want them all to be the city lords, or take turns to be the city lords?"
"This is naturally unrealistic."
"So it's still the old almanac where a few people make decisions for the majority."
"Based on my many years of experience working in government agencies, this is indeed more efficient."
"But you still can't take into account the interests of a very small number of people, can you?"
At this point, Cao Liang couldn't help but curl his lips and said: "It's easier said than done to be perfect."
"Then assume that Langya City is a cake, and the president of the autonomous association or the owner of Langya City is the one who divides the cake. How can we achieve fairness and justice?"
"I am not talented. I was the deputy mayor of Shashi City in the previous term. Thanks to my great love, I was elected as the person in charge of Fengweishan People's Autonomous Association. Cao promises to do his best to be fair and just."
"On what basis?"
"consciousness."
"This is the most unreliable thing." Chen Xinyan chuckled, "Mr. Cao is the mayor and is not familiar to ordinary people. And even if a person has a noble character and is respected by others, who can guarantee that
Will his heart change after he takes over the power?"
"The autonomous association and the management committee can supervise each other."
"It makes sense, but as you just said, this is one of the measures to reduce efficiency. Moreover, even if the two parties can restrain each other and work together at the beginning, if they collude later, ordinary people will live better than
Is it better now?”
"There will be no results if you discuss like this." Cao Liang asked, "Then what method do you want? What do you want to do?"
"Good question. You finally remembered to ask our opinion, and finally remembered that we are the owners of this base." Chen Xinyan sneered, her voice getting deeper and deeper.
"Dean Chen, at the end of the world, mankind is suddenly facing a catastrophe. We should work together and unite to survive..."
Cao Liang's expression changed slightly, and he wanted to defend but was interrupted by the other party. In the end, he still didn't want to break up with the Langya City officials. He knew that it was difficult to conquer the world, but it was even harder to defend the world. Sooner or later, Lang Hua and the others would come back.
It should be noted that it is like boiling a frog in warm water. With today's victory, he can pry open a crack and sow a seed. In the future, he can still plan for it slowly. There is no need to act too hastily and push the opponent or himself to the edge of the cliff early.
"You said it yourself, the end of the world is different from the past, and it's not easy to be perfect." Chen Xinyan said, turning around to look at these people, and found that these people who were eager to take advantage of the management committee had basically been there for a month.
New faces.
"You should know the circumstances under which you came to Langya City, and you should know more clearly how the base accepted you and provided you with free security, land to live, and food to satisfy your hunger."
"Even in peaceful times, there is no reason for one group of people to have to sacrifice unconditionally for another group of people, let alone in the current difficult times. There is no kinship or friendship between people, even if someone dies
It has nothing to do with the other person."
"But the city lord you resent and the base citizens you accuse of being selfish are still willing to do these unnecessary things for you outsiders and newcomers. This is because of the responsibility of the same ethnic group and the birth of
Out of love and conscience, not out of obligation.”
"Do you know that every grain of food distributed here was snatched from the mouths of black corpses by frontline soldiers? Do you know that every inch of land expanded here is soaked in the sweat and blood of the predecessors?"
"No, you don't know. You turn a blind eye, you pretend to be deaf and dumb, you only see yourself."
"Cao Liang, what you asked just now is very good. You asked me what I want and how I want to do it. But there is something wrong."
"I want it? It's not that I want it, it's that we want it. You should ask Lang Hua, who created the base from scratch, what those people want. You should ask the first batch of Langya City who have gone through hardships and fought bloody battles.
What citizens want.”
"You want fairness, but do you know that Lang Hua fainted and died twice trying to save people? You want fairness, but have you ever asked the soldiers who died and were injured trying to seize the arsenal in Nata Valley what they thought?"
"If you don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that the soldiers of Langya City are currently working on the front lines in exchange for supplies and food. You eat and drink while you are complaining. Is this fair to them?"
"Is it fair to them to allow those who are latecomers who have benefited from the situation to be on an equal footing with them?"
"You are so boastful, but do you know what distribution according to work means?"
"If you want to get something for nothing, have you asked the heroic souls in the back mountain cemetery if they will agree? Have you ever asked the steel guns among our soldiers if they will agree?"
At the end of her speech, Chen Xinyan was hoarse and extremely angry. She raised her hand and saw the soldiers surrounding the hall turning around.
Xing Wutian gave orders from a distance: "Line up! Stand with guns ready, step forward and walk together!"
"Tap tap tap——"
The soldiers showed their bright bayonets and marched forward in order. Only then did the people react, screaming, pushing, and dragging others to stand in front of them, fearing that they would be injured.
Some of the ability users shouted: "Chen Xinyan, what do you mean?"
"I have said that I have never cared about the life and death of all of you. If you really regard the base as my home, I welcome it very much, but if someone insists on being a robber or a traitor, my laboratory will not mind collecting more samples!
"
Cao Liang shouted: "Chen Xinyan, don't force us either."
Not only him, but also Qi Jingmin and Jin Youcai, as if facing a formidable enemy, hurriedly mobilized the crystal energy in their bodies, causing a dark or light orange shimmer to appear on the surface of their bodies. One full orange, two light orange, which is the middle stage of the second level.
With the early stage of the second level, joining forces may not be afraid of the unusual peak of the second level.
Chen Xinyan picked up a toothed knife at the right time. Not only did her eyes glow with yellow light, but there was also a vague aura surrounding her body.
"Don't stare at me with your dirty eyes." She said coldly, "Tell you, you are not qualified to yell at me!"
"Third-level evolver! When did you complete your promotion?"
Chen Xinyan said condescendingly: "Otherwise, who do you think I am experimenting on?"
Seeing this scene and feeling the pressure of the oncoming mid-level ability users around him, Cao Liang was angry and couldn't help but clenched his fist tightly. After Jin Youcai hurriedly whispered some words of advice, he reluctantly relaxed.
Open your hands and lower your head.
Chen Xinyan pressed her right hand and the soldiers stopped on the spot. The people surrounded did not dare to relax their vigilance. Although they stared at the surroundings without blinking an eyelid, they did not dare to make any more confrontational moves.
There is no way, Chen Xinyan's ability is very strange. Not only can she control more than five refined tooth knives at the same time, but the movement trajectories of these blades are often unpredictable and difficult to guard against. Before she can advance, she can fight against five first-level ability users.
They joined forces to attack without falling behind. Now they have successfully been promoted to an intermediate ability user, and their strength may have doubled. Cao Liang admitted that he was reckless this time.
"Hey, it's very lively here."
At this time, Wu Ke and Caiyun followed Yang Xiaoxiao through the crowd and came to stand next to Duan Qing. Wu Ke was carrying a huge hammer, while Caiyun carried two submachine guns for Zheng Yueying and herself.
There is another second-level peak, and there are Wu Ke, Xing Wutian, and two servants Duan Qing and Caiyun. Although there are many of them, they are a ragtag group mainly composed of first-level ability users and ordinary evolvers.
After several real life-and-death battles, the two parties soon became timid when the strength of the two parties was unequal.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you here?"
"Well, it's your man who has something to report." Yang Xiaoxiao teased Zheng Yueying, "I was just bored and wandering around to see if I could find a few people who automatically ran into the gun."
Zheng Yueying blushed and saw Fu Lianhe running into the hall in a panic.
Before he could stand still, he hurriedly reported to Chen Xinyan on the stage: "Oh no, a large number of black corpses were found in the jungle outside the base. It is initially estimated that there are 60,000 to 80,000. In addition, satellites show that there are still a large number of corpses heading towards us.
With rapid maneuvering, the number will exceed ten times."
Yang Xiaoxiao stretched out her hands, sat on the corner of the podium, crossed her legs and said, "My shadow guard also sent back the same news."
As soon as this statement came out, the audience was in an uproar.
"It's a zombie wave! The zombie wave is coming!"
"What should I do? I don't want to die."
"No, I don't want to die here..."
"No, let's run."
…
"Da da da."
Xing Wutian raised his gun and fired several blank shots, and then the hall became quiet.
Chen Xinyan tapped her fingers on the table and kept giving orders:
"Fu Lianhe, activate the base's first-level emergency response procedures. The wireless channel issues a red warning and immediately informs all field teams to return."
"yes."
"Xing Wutian, you lead people to evacuate the survivors in the jungle area of Fengwei Mountain and quickly build fortifications based on the star-shaped fortress."
"Everyone, follow me!" Xing Wutian shouted loudly.
"Xiaoxiao, lead your men to continue to investigate the surrounding area. The Information Department will cooperate with you to track the corpse group information. If there is any new information, report it immediately."
"learn."
Yang Xiaoxiao snapped his fingers, and several black shadows sprang out from the crowd and rushed in all directions of the base. People were surprised to find that these "shadow guards" had been lurking around them, and they had not noticed it.
At this time, people's foreheads were covered in cold sweat.
After the soldiers left, the number of people in the hall was reduced by half.
Chen Xinyan stood on the stage and finally said:
"As the founder of Fengwei Mountain Refuge Base and the discoverer of the arsenal, for now, Leader Lang Hua's contribution is obviously far greater than that of everyone here. If you want to gain contributions, this war comes at the right time. According to Langya City
According to city regulations, military merit in wartime can be deducted twice as much as in peacetime."
"Okay, Duan Qing sent me an order to put the whole city on alert. Everyone should go outside the city to prepare to fight the zombie wave. Everyone who is still in the base after half an hour will go to the laboratory in the back mountain to do some research.
Volunteers are ready!”
