Chapter 116 The Lonely Road
"Do you know what's the hardest thing about surviving in the apocalypse?"
Wei Xuan looked at Pei Yue, but did not answer her question directly, and then looked into the air again.
At this time, a large amount of clouds had gathered around the one-eyed dragon, covering the starry sky above. The figure of the giant dragon appeared and disappeared in the clouds, and there was indeed a trace of the legendary dragon.
Perhaps because of the increase in water vapor, the hot air actually felt a bit cool under the whistling wind.
"Materials?" Pei Yue guessed.
Previously, in the urban supermarket, the three security guards were willing to kill people for food.
Today in prison, those survivors have lost their personal dignity and bottom line for food, and have to snatch a piece of moldy bread regardless of life or death.
Pei Yue saw with her own eyes the difficulty and suffering of surviving in the apocalypse, and the ruthless trampling of humanity and dignity.
And this is why she wants to strengthen herself and improve her strength.
Wei Xuan once said something to her, and she always remembered it firmly in her heart——
If you want to survive, you have to fight hard!
She hopes to become a strong person and someone who can control her own destiny!
But after Wei Xuan heard her answer, he shook his head and said: "No, there is a shortage of supplies. There is always a way to solve it. With the strength of our team now, although collecting supplies is difficult, it is not completely hopeless!"
"What do you mean?" Pei Yue was confused.
"It's the human heart! The most difficult thing is the human heart under the apocalypse!"
Pei Yue was stunned for a moment, as if thinking about Wei Xuan's words.
Wei Xuan sighed and said: "Even in peacetime, the human heart is the most complicated and unpredictable! But in the apocalypse, all laws and morals have lost their restraints, and the darkness of the human heart is like a demon that has lost its restraints, and can devour itself at any time. Devouring others.
Under such circumstances, it will be very difficult to maintain the healthy and steady development of a team.
The ancients said that in troubled times, heavy codes should be used. Our team was forcibly kneaded together because of the disaster. If we want this team and base to operate according to our vision, the only way is to rely on power and strength! "
Pei Yue was extremely smart and had not thought about this before, but now that Wei Xuan reminded her, she immediately understood and blurted out: "So you established the patrol team and the wilderness hunting team for the sake of power and dominance?"
"Yes, but not entirely correct!"
Wei Xuan shook his head and continued to explain: "Given our current situation, we do need these two teams to ensure the safety of the base and the collection of supplies.
Humans are social animals and cannot live alone for a long time. What is certain is that there must be many survivors in this world. Maybe we will take in more survivors in the future. So how will these people be resettled in the future? Everyone has their own ideas and demands. You can't just follow their own temper, right?
What I am doing now is to formulate a framework in advance. If new survivors join in the future, they only need to fit into this framework. The patrol team and the wilderness hunting team are the guarantee that everyone's will is subject to the collective will! "
Wei Xuan has made it very straightforward with these words, that is, there can only be one voice for the management of the future base.
As the saying goes, kindness does not control soldiers, but justice does not control wealth. To survive in the apocalypse, power and strength are the most basic guarantees.
It’s not surprising that humans will do crazy things in the apocalypse!
If everyone is allowed to express their opinions, it will only drag the base into the abyss of chaos.
Therefore, for the smooth operation and development of the base, Wei Xuan would rather be a tyrant or dictator.
For him, this is destined to be a lonely road!
It seems that there is some truth in why ancient emperors would claim to be lonely.
It's just that Wei Xuan himself is in the process of growing up at this moment. He is not like those ancient emperors who learned the emperor's mental skills and became completely evil and cold-hearted, so he can still open his heart and talk to Pei Yue about this.
Only Wei Xuan's hazy outline could be seen in the darkness, but the shock Wei Xuan gave her was so clear.
Maybe this is the gap between the two people!
Pei Yue sighed secretly in his heart.
She can see every specific matter very thoroughly and clearly, but Wei Xuan is better at long-term layout and planning.
Sometimes she really wanted to know how Wei Xuan's head grew. Even though everyone didn't know whether they would survive tomorrow, he was already planning for the day after tomorrow and even the future beyond.
At this moment, she completely understood Wei Xuan's thoughts and intentions, and while she admired him, she also felt a little distressed.
Can everyone really understand such a path?
Just like how Wei Xuan directly massacred those death row prisoners before, although Wu Dapeng was the only one to speak out, others still had some fear and fear in their hearts.
Wei Xuan massacred 47 humans in one go. Even if they were death row prisoners, they were still so cold-blooded that it was hard to accept.
"But what does this have to do with your arrangement for me?"
Pei Yue was silent for a while, but still asked in confusion.
Wei Xuan finally withdrew his gaze from the sky, looked at Pei Yue's increasingly beautiful and thrilling face, and said: "Since we want to establish a management framework, the key pillar must be to choose our own people who are trustworthy. And you, Mr. Ma, Yang Zhen and others are the people I trust the most.
As you said, supplies are the key to survival in the apocalypse. Mastering the supplies is equivalent to mastering the lifeblood. This is just like the ancient grain and grass, and it is a major event that can affect the morale of the military. So you must ensure that it is in the hands of the most reliable person. In my heart, you are the most reliable person! "
In my heart, you are the most reliable person!
Pei Yue's heart suddenly beat unsatisfactorily, and his brain was buzzing.
He said I was the most trustworthy and reliable person.
What does it mean? Are you confessing your love to me?
But isn’t this confession too informal?
Will he suddenly pull my hand next? Should I refuse?
Just when she was thinking wildly, Wei Xuan suddenly said: "I know you also want to improve your strength, but I don't think this matter is urgent. I mean there is no need to rush to fight zombies directly.
You, Xue Yan, Kuo Miaomiao, Peisheng, including Lao Ma, all need to undergo special training. Study hard with Yang Zhen and Brother Yang. Use this time to improve your physical fitness, combat skills, and abilities in battle. The application in it, as well as your spiritual path, are equally important.
I have a hunch that whether or not there is a path of spiritual practice may determine the level of a person's supernatural achievements in the future. Once you have some training and practical ability, and base management gradually forms a system, I think you will have plenty of opportunities to fight! "
"You will paint a big pie for me and trick me into being a free labor force~~"
Now, when facing zombies, I would really be in a hurry. I could only barely defend myself, but I couldn't even talk about killing the enemy.
Pei Yue knew that Wei Xuan was right and had already accepted Wei Xuan's arrangement in her heart, but she still gave Wei Xuan an angry look.
But she forgot that Wei Xuan had night vision. Suddenly seeing her coquettish expression, Wei Xuan couldn't help but froze.
Although he couldn't see clearly, Pei Yue still felt Wei Xuan's attention, and his face turned as red as blood.
"I'm going to bed, I won't talk to you anymore!"
Pei Yue almost ran away and left the roof, leaving a beautiful back view for Wei Xuan.
