Chapter 138: Conspiracy

Along the way, he didn’t know how many shots he had fired.

If someone was lying on the ground, he’d give them another shot.

If someone was lying on the ground, pinned underneath others, he’d shoot the corpses on top first.

Then he’d flip over the shot corpses and continue shooting, afraid of missing even one.

When Liang Yu arrived at a house, he discovered a Survivor.

The child, about fifteen or sixteen, seemed to have heard the gunshots and wanted to find a new hiding place.

Unexpectedly, he was just happened to be seen by Liang Yu.

Upon seeing the person, Liang Yu showed no mercy.

He immediately sent the person on their way.

For him now, mercy was nonexistent.

It was like something he had read in a novel.

He could live the rest of his life with guilt.

But he couldn’t let the rest of his life be spent in fear and trepidation.

Although this possibility was very small, if there was any chance, he would try his best to eliminate it.

He spent some time exploring the village, inside and out.

He finally dealt with all the bodies.

He didn’t plan to leave now.

He wanted to wait for others who came here.

He’d wipe them all out, and the corpses on the ground were the best bait.

Back in the car, Liang Yu once again gave Mario an order.

He told Mario to pile all the corpses in the open space at the village entrance.

Mario unconditionally obeyed Liang Yu’s commands.

After Mario left, Liang Yu ran to the bathroom and took a shower.

Soon after, he returned to his room in a bathrobe.

He was just a little surprised that Lan Ling wasn’t there.

He turned and walked to Lan Ling’s room next door.

As he reached the door, he heard sobbing.

Liang Yu pushed open the door, startling Lan Ling.

Before she could speak, Liang Yu walked over and cupped her face with both hands.

He wiped away the tears on her face.

“I…”

Liang Yu didn’t press her.

After wiping her tears, he instead took out a handheld game console.

“Look at this Pokémon I just caught, what do you think?”

“I spent a long time catching it today.”

Looking at the handheld console in front of her, she knew Liang Yu wanted to distract her.

But remembering what had happened today, she hugged Liang Yu and burst into tears.

Lan Ling just kept crying and sobbing on Liang Yu’s body without saying a word.

Liang Yu could only hold her, constantly stroking Lan Ling’s head to comfort her.

After an unknown amount of time, Lan Ling finally cried herself to sleep.

She fell asleep on Liang Yu’s body.

Liang Yu carefully placed her on the bed, and after settling her, he quietly exited the room.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to stay and accompany her.

It was that there were fish on the hook now.

It should be the people who had escaped earlier, now bringing others back.

Liang Yu was a little puzzled; they clearly knew he had firearms.

Where did they get the nerve to come knocking?

It even made Liang Yu feel like they had drunk too much fake alcohol.

However, the facts proved that they hadn’t drunk fake alcohol.

A group of about ten people, upon seeing that Liang Yu’s vehicle had not yet left, immediately retreated.

Mario, who was moving the corpses nearby, completely ignored them.

His orders were to gather the corpses at the village entrance, not to kill this group of people.

So these people escaped a disaster.

However, Mario had already notified Liang Yu when he discovered them.

Liang Yu didn’t deal with it immediately; he only came out after Lan Ling had fallen asleep.

Back in the driver’s seat, he could no longer see the group of people.

Liang Yu didn’t care in the slightest.

He believed that this group of people would not give up on these forty-plus corpses.

At a time like this, these were a large amount of food!

To put it bluntly, with these two-legged sheep, they and the ten or so people could last at least a month.

If they were more frugal, perhaps they could last even longer.

How could the other party not be tempted?

As long as they had thoughts and desires, they couldn’t remain indifferent to so much food.

Liang Yu estimated that they would come to move the corpses by late tonight at the latest.

Just as Liang Yu had guessed.

These dozen or so people had already detoured to a house relatively far from the RV.

These people found bedding, clothes, and other items in the house and gathered them together to keep warm.

At this moment, someone looked at the lucky person who led the way.

“Hey!”

“Your Xujia Village is finished; you kicked an iron plate.”

“Seeing so many people at the village entrance, I estimate not many escaped; you’re lucky.”

However, another person asked.

“It looks like that killing god won’t be leaving anytime soon.”

“What should we do now?”

Another person said very bluntly.

“Don’t even think about it; if we go over there, we’ll just be adding to the pile of people at the village entrance.”

“I heard there was food here, that’s why I came; I’m not here to die. My family is still waiting for me to bring food back.”

These ten or so people started discussing, one after another.

The room suddenly became incredibly noisy.

At this point, the leader couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Everyone, shut up.”

After this sentence, the room suddenly quieted down.

It was clear that the person speaking had a lot of authority.

“We only have two options now.”

“Either wait for him to leave, then we go and take them away in batches.”

“Or take a risk and act in the middle of the night after the other party falls asleep.”

Seeing someone next to him hesitate to speak.

The leader knew what the other person wanted to say.

He pointed at the person.

“You’re not thinking of talking to them, are you?”

“I suggest you put that idea away. He could slaughter so many people in Xujia Village; why do you think he would let you go?”

This sentence sent a chill down everyone’s spine.

Indeed, setting aside the feasibility of this method.

Who among them would be willing to be the negotiating representative?

And what could they offer the other party as a bargaining chip?

Then someone expressed their opinion.

“He shouldn’t stay for long; looking at his situation, three days at most.”

“He will definitely leave after three days.”

However, his words were immediately questioned by others.

“How can you be so sure? Maybe he wants to stay here for a while?”

“Didn’t you see? There’s so much food at the village entrance.”

“I don’t believe the other party would leave with so much food available.”

“As long as he wants, these foods can last the two of them for a very long time, and most importantly, in this weather, the meat quality won’t change.”

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this remark.

The leader was also deep in thought.

Ultimately, he decided to lead his people to move the corpses in the dead of night.

And there would only be this one chance; they would move as much as they could.

He estimated they could move about half the quantity.

The other half would be left for the other party; he thought there shouldn’t be any problems with that.

As a leader, he was very clear on the principle of leaving a way out for future encounters.

He estimated that half the amount was already the limit; any more, and the other party might search for them nearby.

And then turn their group into food for the dining table.
