49 -47 Painful Choices

Zhang Zhongmou inquired strangely, “What plan?”

Li Dong was deep in thought, slowly saying, “We all have enough food on us to last for two or three days now, right?

If the food at that supermarket is still there, and we all load up, at the least it should last us ten to twenty days…With ten or twenty days, we might be able to find a way out, right?

At least…

it’s better than following those people, eating monster corpses, eating tree bark, and weeds.”

As he spoke, he tightly clenched his fists.

After Li Dong finished speaking, everyone fell silent, so silent that it was scary, so silent that they could hear their own heartbeats.

At this moment, everyone was facing a decision, whether to return to the school and share hardships with more than a thousand people, or to abandon them and choose a more promising path?

Cold sweat faintly broke out in many people’s palms.

A seemingly simple choice was inflicting a double torment on them between their moral conscience and their survival instinct.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Dong couldn’t help but whisper again, “What does everyone actually think?” His voice was almost hoarse as he shouted out, his palms sweating, “Are you all really that noble?

Can’t bear to abandon them?

We might not even survive ourselves, how can we think about others?”

Li Dong was very anxious, he was afraid that these people would actually choose to go back to school and join the more than a thousand people.

If it was just him alone, he wouldn’t dare to go on his own, so he had to convince them, get everyone to do the same as him, take the food and leave, and not care about the lives and deaths of more than a thousand people back at the school.

After a while, Zhou Huakang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and spoke in a somewhat husky voice, “My thoughts are the same as Li Dong’s, even though…even though I feel so sorry for them, but…I really can’t imagine, more than a thousand people…without food and drinks…as for food, we could probably make do with tree leaves and wild grasses, but what about water?

And moving so many people…might…might attract terrible monsters, the consequences would be catastrophic.” Looking at the river in front of him, although there is water in it, the consumption of more than a thousand people is indeed staggering.

Just thinking about it made Zhou Huakang’s scalp tingle, he didn’t dare to imagine.

Li Dong saw finally someone agreed with his own point of view, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he looked at Su Yu and Qin Jiagui, but they were still deep in thought, seemingly still torn about making their decision.

Zhao Shichang suddenly stood up, his voice became very calm, casually saying, “Just now, I also thought a lot…

and then I understood one thing, whether it’s us or the people in the school, we all came to this forest at the same time, we all started from the same starting line, the one who can decide our future is ourselves, we won’t harm them, but we don’t have the capacity to help them either.

I think we can share our experiences and some tips from the past two days with them, I also hope that everyone can survive, but I can’t help so many people, so I’m sorry, my choice is the same as Li Dong’s.

And…

I don’t think this represents our selfishness, in front of life, everyone is equal, why should I devalue my own life?

Why should I put myself in an unbearable situation, even starving and dehydrating because of others?

I’m not a saint, I can’t do it.”

With that said, he sat down again.

Zhang Zhongmou snorted, “Well done, do you think you’re giving an inaugural speech?

You’ve got quite the momentum.”

Su Yu raised his head, glanced at Zhao Shichang, and suddenly said: “Yes, we are all ordinary people, we all know how to think for ourselves, this…

maybe there’s nothing wrong with that, I’m just as selfish, I can’t go so far as to care and love everyone the same…

but, there are some people, some things, some principles, that must be upheld, even if it means sacrificing my life.”

Zhao Shichang was stunned, he asked: “Su Yu, what do you mean by that?

Are you going to abandon us?

Are you going with those thousands of people?”

Su Yu shook his head, quietly saying: “I already said, I can’t be fair and caring to everyone.

It’s impossible to do so, but there are some people in school who I can’t abandon.

Even if it means losing my life, I will protect them, do you understand?”

Zhao Shichang was slightly stunned, Qin Jiagui clenched his fists tightly, waving them to strengthen his speech, saying, “Yes, I’m the same as Su Yu, there’s someone I want to protect in school, no matter what, I can’t abandon her.”

Zhou Birong suddenly interjected, “Since this is the case, why not bring the one you cherish together, isn’t this the solution to the dilemma at hand?”

Qin Jiagui was shocked, and Li Dong hurriedly said, “Yes, Qin Jiagui, you’re speaking about your girlfriend, right?

Then bring her along, it doesn’t really matter if our team has one or two more people.

Su Yu, who are you unwilling to leave behind?

It’s not those classmates of yours, right?”

When Qin Jiagui heard him say this, his eyes lit up.

This could indeed be a solution.

Thinking about being with more than a thousand people, possibly eating tree bark or even monster corpses, he too felt a shiver of dread.

Let alone him, he wouldn’t be able to bear his girlfriend living such a life.

The one Su Yu can’t bear to leave behind is naturally Su Yun.

Everyone originally felt guilty about abandoning more than a thousand people and dared not face it.

But after really making this decision, they all felt relieved.

Then they carefully planned and finally decided that apart from Zhou Birong and Ding Shan, the other ten people each had the right to choose one person to bring along from the school.

Of course, they could also give up this right.

Su Yu naturally chose Su Yun, Qin Jiagui chose his girlfriend Yuan Niping. freewebnoveℓ.com

Several other men also began to think about who they should bring along, of course, there were also plans to give up.

After all, for every additional person in the team, a portion of the food would have to be shared.

Of course, this is all under the assumption that the food in the supermarket is still there, otherwise everything would be meaningless.

“Roar-” Suddenly, a terrible roar echoed from the distance, followed by another sharp and piercing shriek.

Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces changed slightly.

These roars and shrieks were rather close, seeming to be only a few hundred meters away.

From the forest several hundred meters away came a “snap” sound, as if two giant monsters had started to fight, it was extremely intense.

“Be careful, everyone.” Qin Jiagui warned quietly, while getting up himself.

Hearing the sounds, everyone’s faces turned pale.

These were two absolutely terrifying monsters.
