Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 119: Twisted Logic, Unreasonable Words
Although the Eagle Team didn't change their clothes, they looked cleaner than before, as they only wore their inner T-shirts and vests. They didn't wear their dirty jackets.
Only after there was no more black blood or rotten flesh on their bodies did Xiao Qi and Yun Yusheng bring them to the dining area. Although it was called the dining area, it was only a small space where they prepared their meals.
When they walked past the survivors, they noticed the survivors' gazes.
Unlike those in the temporary survivor camp, the survivors they met here didn't show any gratitude or relief when they looked at the soldiers. Instead, they stared at them with a hint of blame, as if they had done something wrong.
Yun Yusheng noticed the Eagle Team's discomfort and said, "Don't bother with them. Some of them must be blaming you guys for coming late."
Hearing this, one of the Eagle Team's members asked, "Why are they blaming us? We did our best to come here at the risk of our lives."
Xiao Qi shrugged and replied, "We don't know either. Most of them think it's our duty to rescue and protect them. They also expect us to serve them food and water."
"No one cares if you are risking your life searching for supplies outside for them or not. They only know that you owe them this because you took your salary."
The moment they heard this, they frowned, and another soldier said, "But that's what we earn from working."
This time, Yun Yusheng chuckled and replied, "But your salary is paid from taxes. Since they pay taxes, by their logic, you work for them."
"What twisted logic!" another soldier couldn't help but curse.
"Brother, now you understand why my captain didn't go rescue the survivors. They are nothing but a bunch of white-eyed wolves. They take our kindness and compatriotism for granted," Xiao Qi added with a sigh.
When the Eagle Team heard this, they frowned even deeper. While the members didn't fully grasp the deeper meaning behind Xiao Qi and Yun Yusheng's words, Wei Ying understood it well.
Since these people would follow them back to the survivor camp, he needed to establish some rules to keep them in check. Otherwise, they might riot and stab them in the back.
As they walked over, Li Sikai, Feng Yun, and Chen Qianfeng stood up and saluted Wei Ying before saying, "Captain Wei."
Wei Ying noticed a new face and asked, "Is this your new member?"
Li Sikai nodded and replied, "Captain Wei, this is Feng Yun. He just joined us and wasn't a soldier. The Vice Captain has already exempted him from military rules."
Standing in front of him, Feng Yun didn't show any fear or fawning expressions. He met Wei Ying's gaze but said nothing.
Seeing this, Wei Ying smiled and said, "He's a good seedling."
"Feng Yun, please add sausages for our brothers' meals," Yun Yusheng said.
Hearing this, Feng Yun nodded, and with a wave of his hand, several packs of sausages appeared out of nowhere and fell on the table. When the Eagle Team saw this, their eyes widened in surprise.
"Captain Wei, my team has two space-type ability users, so it's convenient for us to keep our supplies," Xiao Qi said with a smile.

Wei Ying nodded and asked curiously, "How does this space-type ability work?"
Instead of Xiao Qi, it was Feng Yun who answered, "Captain Wei, space-type abilities don't consume much of our ability energy, but they drain more of our mental energy."
"We can freely store or take out things from our space with our minds. But, if we overuse the ability, we will get a headache or even faint. The size of the space differs for each user. At the moment, mine is about 50 square meters."
"It's very convenient," Wei Ying said with a nod.
While they were chatting, Li Sikai and Chen Qianfeng were grilling the sausages. Ten minutes later, the sausages were ready, and they divided the meal.
Each person got a bowl of thick porridge, a bowl of soup dumplings, two boiled eggs, and three sausages. As for the water, the Phantom Team boiled a large pot. They can get as much as they want.
When the survivors saw this, their eyes were filled with jealousy and anger. They only had a boiled egg and didn't get any sausage. How could those people, who were supposed to prioritize their well-being, eat better than them?
At this moment, most of their mentalities had worsened. Since supplies were scarce, they were unwilling to let others get more than them.
Some even believed that the supplies owned by the soldiers belonged to them and that they had the right to decide their distribution.
Sitting among the survivors, Aunt Wang said unhappily, "Those soldiers should treat us well, but they only give us dried food while they enjoy the good food themselves."
Sitting not far from her, Sister Wen sighed and said, "Aunt Wang, those supplies were found by the soldiers. So, it's their right to decide how to divide them. It's already great that they still give us hot meals, dried food, and water."
When Aunt Wang heard her words, she frowned and said, "Xiao Wen, how can you be so naive? Those supplies were taken from the factories. We are factory workers. So, by right, we should be the ones who own the supplies, not them."
The moment Sister Wen heard her twisted logic and unreasonable words, she chose to stop talking. There was no use in persuading someone who refused to see the truth.
While most of the survivors had slowly been brainwashed by Aunt Wang's words, there were still some who remained clear-headed. As a result, in just two days, the survivors were divided into two groups due to the difference in their mindsets and beliefs.
At this moment, Jiao Lizhi and Jin Xuyan had finally finished clearing Warehouse Areas A, B, and C and were on their way to Area D. The distance between Areas C and D was quite far, so the two of them decided to use her car.
As he drove, Jin Xuyan asked, "Ah Zhi, are you planning to get the flower seeds too?"
