Chapter 173 Misfortune Bewildered The City
Qin An looked at Weng Die. The beautiful woman was no longer cold, arrogant, and full of wisdom. She was just a lonely and helpless little woman who had suffered all sorts of grievances. Her sobs hurt, her shaking shoulders made people want to caress her.
However, even though the beauty was haggard, Qin An did not have any heart to protect the flowers, because his heart was also lonely and helpless at this moment. The familiar taste of the four dishes he had just eaten had already aroused his strongest yearning for Li Ying.
Originally, this kind of longing had been deeply hidden in his heart, but the woman in front of him had mercilessly released it.
Moreover, Qin An did not have any good impression of Weng Die right now. The mysteries on her body made Qin An feel a headache!
After crying for a while, Weng Die controlled her emotions and continued,
"They tied me to a stone pillar and said they were going to burn me to death! At that time, I was accompanied by some of my own men!
When I was filming the director, he was the one who brought me into the entertainment industry. He also made me feel like a fish in water in the complex entertainment industry, but I was able to get out of the mud and not be dyed;
My driver, he's a retired soldier! He is not only a driver, he is also my elder brother, he is also my bodyguard, he has been accompanying me for many years!
A dozen or so of my fans. Although they are called brainless fans, they are truly good to me! They are like my brothers, my sisters;
There are also some of my relatives. I brought them to this place at the beginning of the apocalypse. I originally wanted them to live a peaceful life in the apocalypse!
In short, all of these people did not give up on me in times of crisis! They want to protect me! However, there were only a hundred of them!
In the end, the outcome was very miserable. In the two-sided battle, most of the people I cherished were killed by them! Those who did not die were also seriously injured, and then died without treatment! At that moment, my heart was bleeding! I hate this apocalypse, I hate everyone! After a fierce battle, I still have to face death. They still want to kill me to worship the Mountain God!
Do you understand? A group of people! Because the city I built was protected! But because of a little tribulation, because of that groundless reason, they actually wanted to burn me alive? How cruel was this?
Why? Was it the cowardice of humanity that faced death in the apocalypse? Or are they evil people themselves? This question has existed in my heart for a long time, but I can't think of an answer!
When they tried to burn me to death the second time, Shi Suo, the original village chief of the Shi Clan, could no longer look over. He was still a person with a bit of conscience!
He brought nearly a hundred people from the Shi Clan Village out, wanting to plead for mercy for me! Although his attitude is not firm, I still thank him! Because he is the only one among the four thousand people who will take the lead to plead for my sake! Even though he still believed in the existence of the Mountain God, he still felt that I shouldn't have been burned to death just like that.
'This Shanlan City has protected all of us after all,' he said. 'If it weren't for this city, the zombies and mutated beasts nearby would have killed and eaten all of us long ago!' Since that's the case, even if this city really angers the Mountain God, it shouldn't be completely blamed on me! He felt that he should think of other ways to neutralize the anger of the Mountain God.
Of course, Sun Juan, the Mountain God's Granny, would not agree! She told everyone that the stone lock had become the slave of the devil, and I was the devil!
Shi Suo did not dare to offend the Mountain God Granny. He could only kneel down and apologize. The Mountain God Granny did not continue to make things difficult for him. She told him to go back and think about it at home. That vicious woman only wanted to kill me at that time!
She could have succeeded immediately, but a mysterious person suddenly appeared! After whispering a few words to Sun Juan, Sun Juan decided not to kill me!
She said that the Mountain God has sent a decree that the wrath of the Mountain God is not something that can be resolved by killing me! I need to use other sacrifices as a guide to slowly accumulate blessings. After that, I will be sacrificed to the heavens to reincarnate the Son of the Mountain God. Only in this way can I finally calm down the anger of the Mountain God!
In order to accumulate blessings, Sun Juan ordered people to build an altar in the city. After that, every three days, she would choose a sacrifice from the people in the outer city and worship the mountain god on the altar. And this sacrifice would disappear at night!
How ridiculous! Wasn't the result the same when it came to choosing sacrifices to die compared to the disappearances in the past? Everyone died!
However, those stupid people believed that choosing sacrifices to worship the Mountain God would give them protection! Can you understand this? I really don't understand! I'll never understand! "
Qin An felt a headache when he heard this. He interrupted Weng Die and said, "My mind is already a little confused. You'd better make it clear! Who is the mysterious person who whispered to Sun Juan?"
At this moment, Weng Die's expression was filled with sorrow. She did not look at Qin An and said, "I do not know who he is either!"
Qin An was stunned by Weng Die's straightforward answer. He felt that Weng Die was lying!
Weng Die continued,
Not long after, a Tibetan government plane flew over and discovered Misty Mountain City. Then, it dropped a leaflet. Only at this time did I know about the existence of the mutant! I also knew that the mutant would eat human flesh!
Thus, I dared to guess that the Mountain God Granny might have become a mutant! And those missing people were all caught and eaten by her!
What was ridiculous was that the people in the city clearly knew what a mutant was, but they didn't pay attention to it. They still believed that they would be able to obtain protection if they went to worship the Mountain God!
Just like that, I'm trapped in this castle. I can't go anywhere!
What an irony. When I first built this castle, I put in a lot of effort and thought that I might live here for the rest of my life! But now, it has become the cage that imprisons me! In Nuoda's castle, only Sister Li and Sister Wang are accompanying me. There will be some of Sun Juan's claws around the castle, monitoring me to prevent me from escaping. They will only wait for an auspicious day to sacrifice me to the heavens.
Everyone in the city was also trapped because there were many zombie beasts and zombies around, making it impossible for them to escape. They could only barely survive in and around Mountain Mist City!
Sun Juan used the theory of ghosts and gods to control everyone in the city!
From then on, the inner city and outer city had a new meaning!
The people in the inner city were all Sun Juan's supporters. They could obtain the understanding of the so-called Mountain God and would not be chosen as sacrifices by the Mountain God's Granny.
The people in the outer city were all outsiders or people who had doubts about Sun Juan. They had all become sacrifices that Sun Juan had raised to worship the Mountain God!
Humph, the so-called worship to the Mountain God is just tied up and thrown onto the altar. When night comes, Sun Juan is sending people to capture the sacrifice to her residence and eat it as her food!
Two months later, more than a dozen outsiders came from the city. Among them, the one leading them was Sun Juan's daughter. Her name was Su Ya, but she called herself a poisonous scorpion!
Scorpion wasn't from Z, she had already taken M nationality!
In the year before the apocalypse, she shuttled between Z and M!
Going to M Country was a trip, but when she arrived in Z Country, she was like her mother, pretending to cheat money!
When she was at home, she would live in a neighborhood called the International Garden Villa near Jianghai City, which seemed to be filled with foreigners.
After the apocalypse, they built a wall around the community and renamed it Myriad Kingdom City!
When Qin An heard the words "Myriad Kingdom City", his eyes revealed a ruthless light!
Weng Die continued,
"The scorpion was bitten by a zombie when Myriad Kingdom City was first established, and soon after, she awakened into a mutant, and she became one of the nine leaders of Myriad Kingdom City!
Afterwards, she had a conflict with the other leaders. She left Wanguo City with her subordinates and returned to the village where she lived. There was no one there anymore, so the Poison Scorpion found Shanlan City and finally met her mother, Sun Juan!
After that, their strength would be even greater, because there were six mutants among the people the scorpion brought back!
They were the four outer city gatekeepers and the two inner city protection generals. They had all given these titles themselves.
With the addition of the Scorpion Mother and the Scorpion Daughter, they would already have a total of eight mutants!
From then on, this Shanlan City was even more firmly controlled by them!
The people in the inner city viewed them as sacrifices like gods, but if the Scorpion Mother and Daughter were not satisfied with anyone, they would immediately drive that person to the outer city!
In the outer city, survival became even more difficult. Because the number of mutants had increased, the demand for food had naturally increased.
Then every other day, one person would be chosen as a sacrifice, and would eventually be eaten by the mutants of the scorpion mother and daughter!
At this moment, most of the people had doubts about whether the Mountain God really existed.
Moreover, they all felt that the mother and daughter of the Poisonous Scorpion could be mutants, so what they really went to worship was only mutants, not mountain gods!
However, most people still chose not to resist cowardly. They were lucky.
The people in the inner city believed that as long as they could treat the mother and daughter respectfully, they wouldn't be in any danger. After all, there were so many people in the outer city!
The people in the outer city thought that since there were more than 2,000 people in the outer city and there were some new outsiders, they shouldn't have been chosen as sacrifices because of their bad luck, right?
In short, this was the way things were. People lived cowardly, but they were unwilling to fight back for a better life! "So, these people actually deserve to die!"
When Weng Die said this, her expression became gloomy. At this moment, her heart must be filled with hatred for Sun Juan, for everyone, and for this City of Misfortune called Mountain Mist!
Qin An let out a long sigh of relief when he heard Weng Die's words. He was too shocked. He didn't expect that besides his own team, there were eight mutants in the city. I didn't expect their city to be a dangerous place!
Through Weng Die's narrative, Qin An understood a question. It was why when he first entered Shanlan City, the faces of those people were filled with fear or numbness. That was because they were always facing death.
At the same time, Weng Die's words caused him to have many questions. After sorting things out in his heart, Qin An finally couldn't help but ask,
"First, who is that mysterious person?
Secondly, since Sun Juan has already taken control of the entire city, why didn't she directly kill you?
Third, when I entered the city, I clearly saw many people enter and exit. Even if there were mutated beasts, zombies, and zombies everywhere outside the city, there should be people who have some courage to try to escape, right? Why didn't they run away and only defend this city?
Fourth, why are you still the City Lord? And why did the gatekeeper bring us to see you the moment we entered? What's the point of that? Didn't you already have no rights?
Fifth, since you are already imprisoned in this castle, why did I meet you in the mountains at midnight today? How did you get there? Why go where?
Sixth, you have already been imprisoned. Why do you still know so much about Sun Juan, her daughter and Wanguo City? Who told you all this?
Seventh, why do you want me to help you kill Liu Zilu? Instead of killing Sun Juan or anyone else?
"Eighth, how dangerous is the surroundings? Why did we come across a skull zombie when we came in?"
Qin An asked eight questions in one breath, but he felt that there were still some questions he couldn't figure out. However, because his mind was too confused, he couldn't think of any more details.
Weng Die calmly looked at Qin An and did not answer his question. Instead, she said, "I have basically told you about my matters and the matters in the city. Then, the next question is about Li Ying. She is not in the city, and I did not lie before. I have never seen her, nor do I know her!" "As for why I know so much about you, of course there are other reasons, but I can tell you that it has absolutely nothing to do with Li Ying!"
Speaking of Li Ying, some thoughts that Qin An had just sorted out instantly dispersed, and his mind immediately turned into a paste, unable to think anymore.
Weng Die raised her hand and looked at her watch. It was already 4:20.
Outside the door, there was a knock on the door. Sister-in-law Li directly pushed the door open and walked in. She looked at Weng Die and said, "Miss, I'm coming!"
Weng Die smiled at Sister-in-law Li and said, "Have the people below eaten well?"
Sister-in-law Li nodded and said, "Almost done!"
Weng Die looked at Qin An again and said, "Alright! It's almost time, so I'll answer your questions casually. By the way, I'll tell you something. After that, you should go on your way to see Ba Tian, and then leave this damn place in Shanlan City together! Never come back!"
After saying those words, a flush rose on Weng Die's face. She smiled and said, "Time has already begun to run, so tonight's Shanlan City is destined to not be calm!"
