I pick up trash at the end of the day

"How is it? Is the village chief's injury okay?"

"It's okay, you don't have to worry."

Yu Ge opened the curtain and came out of the house to wipe the blood on his hands: "The bullet has been taken out, your village chief's injury is nothing to worry about, just let him rest for a while."

"Thank you, thank you so much."

"You're welcome, it's not a big deal, but..."

Yu Ge suppressed his smile and walked through the slowly dispersed crowd to the open space.

In the open space, the deputy village chief was tied up with five flowers. His body was covered with bruises, blood was flowing from his forehead and the corners of his mouth, and he lay weakly on the ground, facing the hateful eyes of everyone.

If it wasn't for 1029 watching, I'm afraid he would be ripped apart by now.

Yu Ge knelt down, took out a dagger and patted him on the face: "Do you think I should cut off your ears, goug out your eyes, or cut off your tongue that betrayed your companion?"

The deputy village chief looked at Daofeng in horror, twisted his body desperately to move back, and said plausibly: "I, I'm right! You, why are you doing this to me! I'm right!"

"Right?"

Yu Ge stared at him, full of doubts and incomprehensions: "Why don't you have any regrets until now? Why are you still stubborn and don't know how to repent?"

"Repent? Why should I repent? I did this for the sake of the village! To save everyone's life!"

A young man was so angry that he rushed over and grabbed the deputy village chief's collar and shouted, "Fart! You mole has the nerve to say such things!"

1029 grabbed the young man's wrist, and the fist he swung down abruptly stopped in mid-air, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't drop an inch.

"I said, don't do anything."

The young man glared at 1029 angrily, seeing that he was still unmoved, he could only spit on the ground, shook his hands and left.

Yu Ge nodded slightly towards 1029, and 1029 stood beside him speechlessly, the aura around him was like an invisible barrier separating Yu Ge from everyone.

"Are you right? Well, let me tell you now, you are wrong!"

Yu Ge slammed the dagger into the ground, grabbed the deputy village chief's collar, and wanted to tear him to pieces.

"First, you are ashamed of the village, ashamed of your status as deputy village chief, and of your duty to protect your brothers. This is wrong! Second, you have no mercy for life, and treat human life like grass. It’s wrong to be a traitor! Third, it’s wrong for you to betray your brother out of selfish interests. You are despicable and shameless. This is wrong! Fourth, you still have no repentance, no humanity, and no remorse. This is wrong! Everything was done by your deputy village chief, you still think you are right?!"

"Is it wrong to survive? Is it wrong for me to just want to survive!"

The deputy village head's eyes were red, and the blood on his head was mixed with sweat and dust. He was really in a mess, but he was pitiful but even more hateful!

"As long as they are obedient! As long as they are honest, so many people will die! I warned them, but they didn't listen, can you blame me! You say I am wrong! My fault is that I have taken care of them in vain for so many years. You white-eyed wolves!"

The deputy village chief glanced at every hostile look, and yelled heartbreakingly, as if he was not a traitor, but he was the most selfless and greatest person in the village!

Who knows that his appearance is extremely humble and shameless, and his life is not as good as a maggot in the gutter.

"Damn it! I've had enough!"

The young man picked up the stone ax just now, no matter how much others tried to persuade him to stop it.

The deputy village head looked at the stone ax in his hand, twisted his body and retreated while struggling and continued to shout: "I'm right! I'm right! It's you! You're all looking for death!"

"Let go! Let go! I must kill him today!"

"stop!"

A weak and low voice stopped the chaotic crowd, and they retreated slowly, behind the crowd was the village chief with a pale face wrapped in bandages.

"Village chief, why are you up, you can't move now, go back and lie down and rest."

"I'm fine..."

The village chief coughed lightly, looked up at the impulsive young man just now: "Put down the axe."

"village head."

"lay down!"

The young man gritted his teeth, threw the stone ax and rushed out of the crowd.

The village chief shook his head, stretched out his hand to touch the little flower nestled at his feet, and then said to the person who was supporting him: "You can take care of the little flower for me."

"Okay, village chief."

Xiao Hua tightly pulled the village chief's trouser legs, raised her head and asked, "Father, where are you going?"

The village chief slightly bent his pale and somewhat chapped lips, and said softly: "Xiao Hua is obedient, stay with uncle obediently, dad will be back soon."

"Oh fine."

"Little Hua, let's go, and drive the sheep back to the pen with uncle."

The village chief watched his daughter leave, then turned around and said to the crowd: "Leave two people here, and the rest don't gather here, what should you do, let's all go away."

Everyone dispersed, Yu Ge put away his dagger and was about to find a corner to rest, but was stopped by the village chief: "Excuse me, can I trouble you two to come too?"

"Okay, but where are we going?" Yu Ge asked.

"You'll know when you come with me."

Yu Ge and 1029 followed the village head and his party into the valley, and then slowly went up the mountain through a steep and simple stone step near the valley entrance.

There is nothing on the mountain, and the mountain is as if cut by a knife without a trace of curvature. The gravel on the stone steps is long and long, and every few steps there is a collapse and damage. The mountain road, which is obviously one person wide, seems to be walking on a steel wire. .

Yu Ge clings to the mountain wall, looking at the slowly rising height, feeling more and more panicked. Really, he wasn't so scared when he was pointed at by a gun just now.Looking ahead, the village chief and his party had already gone far away, and even the tied deputy village chief walked faster than him.

"Damn, they are all sleeping on the rope, this sense of balance is too good."

"It's not a sense of balance. If you live here for a few years like them, you can do it."

1029's sudden words frightened Yu Ge so much that he almost stepped on the ground, but fortunately 1029 stopped him, otherwise Yu Ge would have died heroically.

"Fufufu, damn it, you, you are going to scare me to death."

Yu Ge clutched his chest and panted violently, his heartbeat went straight to two hundred and four, his blood pressure went straight to four hundred and eight, and his knees could be seen shaking non-stop.

"I didn't know you were afraid of heights."

"It's not that I'm afraid of heights, it's that you are too scary!"

Yu Ge yelled at 1029, "I don't know if you can scare people to death!"

1029 blinked: "I don't know."

"You... you are awesome! You are really awesome!"

Yu Ge walked up angrily, and 1029 silently followed behind him.

He didn't understand why Yu Ge's brain suddenly short-circuited again, but he was already used to the surprise of Yu Ge, or he had a happy feeling about it.

After a lot of effort, Yu Ge finally climbed to the top of the mountain.

The top of the mountain is very open, and the long and winding horizon can be seen at a glance. The howling mountain wind sweeps across, and the eyes are full of desolate land and flying dust.

On the top of the mountain, there are a few small trees sparsely growing, and under the shade of the shaking trees, there are piles of stones piled up, roughly counting at least thirty piles or more.

Yu Ge looked at the rows of stone piles, the hot sweat all over his body suddenly cooled down, and the icy chill went straight to his mind along the back of his spine.

"This, this won't be..."

"This is where our dead brothers and sisters are buried."

The village chief asked the deputy village chief to come and kneel down, and he squatted in front of a rock pile in front to clean up the weeds. After cleaning up, he sat next to the deputy village chief and panted softly.

"Hey, we have known each other for at least ten years. Do you still remember what the first brother we buried here said before he died?"

The deputy village head stiffened his neck, straightened his back with difficulty and said, "He said to live, no matter what, we must persist in living. As long as we live, there is hope for everything."

"Yes."

The village chief sighed slowly, and said with a chuckle: "We have survived, even though we have lived very hard and exhausted in the past few years, even if we live like slaves, we have worked hard to survive. But, but Look here, it's been three years, and we've lost more than 30 brothers and sisters in three years! This is what you said for the village! For everyone to live well!"

"Without me! More people would die in the village!"

"Yes! That's right! If it wasn't for you, we would all have died in the wild valley, under the teeth of zombie beasts, and at the hands of those beasts! Instead of being poisoned by our own compatriots for no reason!"

The village head stood up and walked slowly among the stone piles, his sad eyes seemed to be watching his brothers and sisters before they died.

"Remember him? He died to protect the backbone and blood of you. And him, he accidentally startled the flock of sheep, and was beaten to death just because a few sheep were not found! She only Because I want my daughter to eat an extra bite of potatoes, now her daughter is buried under this cold stone pile, and she is captured and tortured to death by the group of people! And they have worked hard for a whole month to prepare You tried every means to win us a chance to resist, but you betrayed us and suffered all kinds of tortures, and even reduced our village's population by half! Also, there is Xiaohua's mother..."

The village head was crying for a long time, but he still yelled loudly: "They are trying their best to survive, but in your eyes, it is just a sentence of 'disobedient, seek death'!"

The deputy village chief turned his head, gritted his teeth in the face of accusations and questioning, and bowed his head, with an indifferent expression on his face, as if what the village chief said had nothing to do with him.

"I've finished what I should say, you don't know how to repent..."

The village chief sighed, wiped away his tears, and waved his hand: "Then apologize with death."

When the deputy village chief heard this, he burst into tears, knelt down on the ground and kowtowed desperately: "No, don't kill me! I was wrong! I was wrong! I'm obsessed with ghosts, I'm not human, I shouldn't betray myself Brother! Please don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! You can tell me to do anything! I’m willing to do anything!”

"This...you tell your dead brothers and sisters! Throw him down!"

The two youths immediately set up the deputy village head and came to the edge of the cliff. The deputy village head cried and howled, and the villagers gathered at the foot of the mountain, shouting loudly!

"Throw him down! Throw him down!"

"Pay for your life! Make him pay for his life!"

"Kill him! This kind of person is not qualified to live!"

"Kill him! Kill him!"

The deputy village chief looked down the mountain. At this moment, he looked at the people in the village as if he was looking at countless hordes of zombies attacking. They shouted and yelled, trying to gnaw his flesh and blood and suck his blood. The blood wanted to tear him into pieces!

"No! Don't! Don't kill me! I don't want to die! Please don't kill me!"

"It's late! Do it!"

"and many more!"

Yu Ge suddenly stopped in front of the village chief, and 1029 also grabbed the wrists of the two young men, and made them let go with a twist.

The deputy village chief immediately fell to the ground, knelt on the ground in shock and kowtowed to them, his head was bleeding profusely: "Help me! Please help me! I don't want to die! I don't want to die yet!"

"You, what are you guys doing here?"

"Village chief, calm down first," Yu Ge said, looking at the village chief, "We won't stop you from killing him. To be honest, I wish I could kill this guy with my own hands!"

Yu Ge gave the deputy village head a hard look, sighed, regained his composure and said, "We just scared those guys away just now, I don't know when they will react, and the deputy village chief might be fine if we keep him." it works."

"Could it be that you want to negotiate terms with him?"

The village chief shook his head and said, "Impossible. Once they find out, they will definitely massacre the city."

"No, that's not what I said,"

Yu Ge walked up to the deputy village chief, knelt down and patted him: "Hey, stop knocking, I have something to ask you."

"Say, tell, as long as you don't kill me, I'll tell you everything."

"Okay, let me ask you." Yu Ge sat on the ground, "Is it because you tipped off the news that they came here early today?"

"Yes, yes, it's me," the deputy village head agreed, "I saw you coming out of the valley safe and sound, so I immediately notified them. I'm the one who deserves to die, I'm not human..."

"Okay, okay, I don't want to hear you say this."

Yu Ge interrupted him, and then asked: "Just now I inquired with the people in the village, they asked you to collect grain from you on a monthly basis, but this time the amount was nearly three times the previous amount, they suddenly asked for so much What is the food for?"

"Well, I don't know about that," said the deputy village chief. "Yesterday, no, it was the day before yesterday. They came to the village once the day before yesterday and said that the grain handed in this month would be doubled. I asked them privately, and they didn't either." Said, just give us two days to prepare, said to come and get it this morning, really, you believe me! What I said is true!"

Yu Ge stood up, thought for a while and said, "Village Chief, I have a proposal. I can help you escape from their clutches completely, but the risk is very high, and you must nod in agreement."

"No problem, as long as you say, we can do whatever you want."

"No, you don't need to do anything." Yu Ge turned his head and looked at 1029 with deep meaning, "Just me and him are enough."

"No! Absolutely not!" said the village chief. "They are so many and armed. I will never let you die in vain."

"It's not just us."

Yu Ge suddenly smiled and said, "Our helper will be here soon."
