Global Evolution
Chapter 40
Whoosh!
Under the strong force of the metal crossbow string, the arrow branch broke through the wind and gave off a slight scream of tearing the air. Under the flash of black light, the front part of the arrow went deep into the tree.
Seeing this situation, Liu Chang ran to check on his achievements. He saw that the 40 cm long crossbow did not enter the tree, which was 30 cm long, only the tail of the arrow was still exposed. With one hand, he grabbed the tail of the arrow. He worked hard for dozens of times to pull the arrow out of the tree.
"How strong it is Liu Chang looked at the deep hole in the tree and the juice flowing out of it, and sighed: "it's much more powerful than the police pistol. If you count the quality, the power of the crossbow arrow is really greater than that of the military rifle bullet within 30 meters!"
"Unfortunately, the trajectory is really poor." Liu Chang inspected the holes in the tree body and found that the shooting place was a little lower than the place where he aimed. This shows that the trajectory of the crossbow is curved, because the weight of the crossbow itself is too heavy, their trajectory is more difficult to grasp than the bullet. And also because of the weight, although it is more powerful than rifle bullets at medium and close range, when the crossbow flies more than 50 meters, its power will be greatly reduced.
Fortunately, in this red fog weather, even Liu Chang himself can hardly see things eight meters away - so he has never considered the issue of 50 meters away.
What he has to do now is to test the properties of the crossbow and master the operation of the crossbow. At the same time, he can exercise the accuracy of shooting his prey at close range.
Therefore, the whole afternoon passed by. His experience in the afternoon made countless holes in the tree. Of course, if the tree evolved to be aggressive, Liu Chang, the culprit of all this, would have been torn apart by his anger.
It's a pity that it has slowed down several times on its way to evolution, that terrible fellow rooted in the whole underground world has not turned into that kind of huge and terrible monster. It is still the tree, but a little thicker than before.
This afternoon's test, let Liu Chang gain a lot. He can now skillfully wind the bow and crossbow in the shortest time, understand the difference between long and short catapults in ballistic and power, and can roughly grasp the shooting distance within 10 meters - everything seems so smooth.
As the sky grew dark, Liu Chang's vision became shorter and shorter in the dense fog. When the sight distance was shortened to less than three meters, Liu Chang resolutely left here and took up his crossbow and went back to the government.
All the way through the black and red world, the fog around him slowly flows through. Liu Chang stirs the thick fog around him like a mouse in a soup pot, and walks all the way to the dormitory room.
Back to the door of his room on the first floor, Liu Chang's sensitive nose asked a trace of familiar corpse smell from the room. Then, he felt a tight heart - the smell of a corpse means there is a corpse, and a corpse means someone is dead, and the dead person's is his own house.
Liu Chang has probably guessed who died.
When he pushed the door into the room, he saw a body covered with white sheets and an old man's body on the only bed in the family of three. The sheet covered most of her body, leaving her head open in the air. Next to the corpse lay the same dying old man. His breath was not as strong as the lifeless corpse beside him. It was a real "dying", "dying", "dying".
Next to the two old men, there was the single woman who had never spoken before. She was sitting on the edge of the bed like a puppet, with no expression, no tears, no sadness on her face. She only wiped the sweat on his head for another old man from time to time.
There was no sadness on her face, but the breath she gave out was as sad as it could be.
"Alas." With a sigh, Liu Chang walked into the room with a strong smell, walked past the body of the old man, and sat down on his bed beside the body. A sense of sadness rose in his heart.
He was still hesitating last night whether to make a bed for two old people. Today, one of them is dead. Liu Chang's heart can not help but regret thinking, if yesterday for two people to make a bed, although can not prevent the weak of their fate of death, but will give them life before the end of the last bit of warmth.
Last night, if you can't see the dog, you can't even see yourself? Can you finally sit here alive?
If you give yourself a chance to choose again, will you change the original choice? Therefore, he fell into a deep contradiction and entered a strange circle of logic.
Just then, a big hand patted him on the shoulder.
Liu Chang looks up - it's Li Qingshui.
"Go out and smoke with me." Li Qingshui said, and then took out a pack of crumpled cigarette boxes from his buttocks pocket, took out a cigarette box and handed it to Liu Chang.
Holding the tobacco in his hand, Liu Chang saw that even the dry cigarettes were mildewed in this terrible world, and the original white cigarette paper had turned yellow and green, just like the old man lying in bed."Let's go."
"Good."
Two people did not talk much, holding cigarettes, one after another left the dormitory.
Walking into the corridor, leaning on the bed, Liu Chang took the lighter and lit his cigarette: "do you know when I last lit?"
"I don't know."
"When Liu Tao died." Liu Chang reached out and touched the finger bone necklace on his chest and said, "on the first day of the red fog, he asked me for a cigarette, but I didn't. Later, we went to the hospital to find medicine because of the wound infection, and then And then we found the medicine and ate it, and I survived, and he died. When I woke up, I ordered one for his body
Finish this sentence, Liu Chang mercilessly smoked a cigarette.
"Are you a little sad that the old man of that family died?" Li Qingshui did not answer Liu Chang's words, but looked at him and asked other questions.
"It's a little bit, but it can't be sad..." Spit out the smell of tobacco in the lung, Liu Chang thought for a moment and said, "it should be called uncomfortable, after all, I and she have not had any intersection, can only be regarded as sympathy."
"Sympathy is a good word. I pulled you out to tell you about it." Li Qingshui seized Liu Chang's stubble and said, "I come to tell you that it's better not to have sympathy, which will affect your survival enthusiasm."
"Why?" Liu Chang was puzzled.
"Because sympathy for the weak is essentially a betrayal of nature." After a moment's silence, Li Qingshui said something to Liu Chang.
Then he seemed to feel his voice was not strong enough and added, "what kind of world is it now? It is no longer the former human social world, we return to the most primitive state of natural man. Natural selection, the choice you made last night is absolutely the right choice. Don't let it affect your judgment on survival in the future. Next time, you must not be affected by compassion and make the wrong choice! Because those who are going to be eliminated will be eliminated in the end. Don't let what you should not be eliminated also be eliminated because of your wrong judgment
“……”
Li Qingshui's words, let Liu Chang fall into meditation, the corridor ushered in a moment of silence.
"Thank you..." After a moment, Liu Chang raised his low head and said with a bitter smile, "but there is no love in it. Isn't it a betrayal of human nature?"
"Don't think about such a complex thing as human nature. You will fall into a strange circle of philosophy. As long as you live well, you will not betray yourself and your family, nor will you betray me, the fat man and the little girl. It's not a betrayal of your own life
Li Qingshui finish this plan, after smoking all the remaining cigarettes, the butt of the cigarette is still severely on the ground, and then step out, then turn and push the door into the dormitory.
