Chapter 422: Human-eating Hill (1)
Outside the door, a group of skinny refugees kept asking Chu Sihan.
Chu Sihan did not answer. Instead, he stood at the side expressionlessly.
After the huge battle yesterday, no matter how unreasonable he was, no one dared to attack him or speak ill of him.
In addition, Chu Sihan had sent them food today, which made them have some trust in Chu Sihan.
In this famine place, only those with food and fists had the right to speak.
“You’re here.”
Seeing Lu Sheng walk out, the expressionless Chu Sihan finally relaxed.
This change made the refugees look at Lu Sheng in admiration.
“Is there anyone else nearby?”
Lu Sheng asked Chu Sihan.
Chu Sihan said in a low voice, “I heard there’s a group not far away.”
“Don’t go near them.”
A girl said in horror, “That’s where I escaped from. They eat humans.”
“They were forced to eat people.”
An old man sighed softly and said, “If they can’t leave this place but want to survive, they have to have food.”
“But they can’t eat people!”
The girl said with reddened eyes, “They even laid their hands on a six-year-old child. That girl is so pitiful!”
A man said softly, “Miss, everyone is selfish. No one wants to die. For some people to live, human nature is nothing to them.”
“But… How can someone without a bottom line still be considered human? They’re a bunch of monsters!”
Kai Chun, who had been silent, suddenly spoke angrily.
Everyone fell silent.
There were once people in their group who wanted to join that group of ‘monsters’ to survive. However, they could not get past the hurdle in their hearts.
Someone smiled bitterly and said, “Who can criticize anyone at this juncture?”
“Let’s go.”
Chu Sihan spoke with a complicated expression.
Lu Sheng said softly, “Lord, walk in front. I’ll cover the back.”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly and said in a low voice, “Be careful.”
Lu Sheng nodded.
When everyone saw Chu Sihan walking away, they hurried after him.
Kai Chun looked suspiciously at Lu Sheng and asked, “Sister, aren’t you coming along?”
Lu Sheng smiled faintly at her. “You guys go first. I’ll protect you from behind.”
“Oh!”
The old woman nodded at her before following the crowd with the two children.
Lu Sheng turned back and saw that there was no one else around. She followed the team.
A group of twenty people walked majestically on the path until they reached a hill. Everyone stopped.
Chu Sihan turned his head in confusion.
However, he heard someone say in a low voice, “Young Master, the Human-eating Hill is ahead.”
The reason why it was called Human-eating Hill was because the people living behind the hill ate humans.
Lu Sheng did not know what happened in front, but seeing that there was no danger at the back, she hurried past the crowd and walked forward, preparing to ask what happened.
“Why aren’t you walking?”
Chu Sihan turned around and looked at her. He said in a low voice, “I heard from them that the Human-eating Hill is ahead.”
Lu Sheng frowned slightly. She looked at Chu Sihan and said in a low voice, “Why don’t I use the Invisibility Talisman to take a look?”
“Okay.”
Knowing that those people could not do anything to Lu Sheng, Chu Sihan was very a.s.sured.
Lu Sheng nodded. “Then, stay here and watch them. I’ll be back soon.”
Seeing that Lu Sheng was leaving, everyone’s expression changed drastically.
“Miss, please reconsider!”
The girl who said that she escaped from there stepped forward and blocked Lu Sheng’s path. She persuaded, “You should let this Young Master take a look. There are many of them. I’m afraid you’re not their match!”
