Chapter 034 Breaking Through the Barrier
For a moment, the entire square fell silent; with the exception of a very few people, almost everyone stood frozen in place.
What just happened?
No one can give an answer.
Just now, it seemed as if an invisible force was pulling them.
It stimulates the interaction between their left and right hemispheres.
They even turned on each other.
At this moment, everyone was still shaken.
They all instinctively looked at Meng Shisan.
He's telling the truth!
There really is a mysterious force deep within their minds that influences their emotions, thoughts, and even cognition.
This discovery sent chills down my spine more than any wasteland.
After all, no one can be sure that what we want to do, what we are doing, or what we are doing in the past, present, or future truly comes from our hearts.
"Looking at it this way, haven't we just been a joke all these years?"
Some people joked, "Then what's the point of our persistence?"
What's the point of living?
"Brother, what you're saying now might not even be what you truly mean..."
Just as he was feeling sentimental, what someone next to him said was even more heartbreaking.
Someone nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, I'm not even sure now whether this strong will to survive is actually my own will."
Countless people chimed in, their voices filled with sorrow.
At this moment, Meng Shisan stared blankly at Er Er in his arms.
He thought he was about to expose something, but Er Er's words instantly turned the tide.
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly remembered Baozi's evaluation of Er'er when they first met.
Those people have absolutely no idea of her true worth!
Yes, that's what Baozi said.
He remembered it clearly. He hadn't had time to think about it deeply at the time, but now he realized that Er'er was definitely not an ordinary child.
She must have secrets she doesn't know about.
"It's alright, don't cry, Daddy's here." Although he was puzzled, seeing the little girl crying with tears streaming down her face, Meng Shisan put aside his suspicions and gently comforted her.
Yan Zhiyu led his men up to the high platform, and even at this moment, they were still fully armed and ready for battle.
He simply kept a certain distance from Meng Shisan.
Xie Linyuan gave Er'er a meaningful look, and he was equally surprised.
"Meng Shisan! How dare you!" Just then, Li Maoran, who had been betrayed by his own people and was lying in a pool of blood, shouted angrily.
Er Er's voice did make him hesitate for a moment, but only for a moment.
The anger on his face clearly showed his current stance.
"You'll regret this, you definitely will! You have no idea what kind of being you've provoked. From now on, anyone around you, including the little girl in your arms, could deliver a fatal blow!"
Because you are defying the gods, who are omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent!
Li Maoran roared as he looked at the people in the square, "And you, do you think you can get away with this?"
From this day forward, anyone around you could take your life, including your wife, children, or even your parents!
"A bunch of ignorant wretch, you have betrayed the great God!"
"A god?" Meng Shisan scoffed. "I've only ever heard of cowards hiding their heads and tails, but I've never heard of a god hiding his head and tail. If you've got guts, let him come. I'll be waiting right here!"
Today, I want to slay the gods!
"Shut up! How dare you offend gods?" In his mind, Baozi, who was still somewhat shocked by Meng Shisan's audacity, immediately roared, "What kind of gods are those guys? At most, they're just some survivors from abandoned lands."
Abandoned land?
Meng Shisan learned of a new clue, but he nonchalantly said, "What's wrong with slaughtering gods who can't protect us!"
Baozi was about to retort, but just as she was about to open her mouth, she didn't know where to begin, so she simply shut up.
Gods, how long ago was this vocabulary?
Even the survivors of the abandoned lands now dare to impersonate gods, which shows how long ago it has been.
"Blasphemy! Damn it! Everyone, kill!" Li Maoran was furious, but just when everyone was ready for a big battle, he suddenly turned around and retreated back into the bunker.
This left Yan Zhiyu and the others dumbfounded.
Good grief, so after all that shouting, he chickened out?
"Should we go after them?" Yan Zhiyu asked blankly.
Meng Shisan thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Forget it, if we keep him, the base commander will probably be laughing in his sleep."
These people posed almost no threat to Meng Shisan.
Without Er'er, he could have had it even easier; with his self-healing ability, he could have outlasted all these people.
However, Er Er's existence sometimes became a hindrance to him.
However, Er'er was too dependent on him, and he didn't have a better way to deal with it.
"What about the rest?" Xie Linbo's hands were still trembling. He was dumbfounded when he pointed his gun at Meng Shisan.
But at the same time, he was also the first to turn the gun around by his own willpower.
After all, his idol was Meng Shisan, and he didn't believe that he, in his right mind, would harm the person he admired most.
Using this logic, he managed to struggle his way out.
"Tie up those who are willing to surrender, and take away the weapons of those who are stubborn and send Yang Jiu and the others to the wasteland."
Meng Shisan wasn't in a hurry to kill anyone; he had many questions.
"Okay." Xie Linbo was delighted upon hearing this. "No need for Yang Jiu and the others. I'm familiar with this job. I can get everything done in a car in a bit..."
"Shut up." Before he could finish speaking, Xie Linyuan slapped him on the forehead.
This is the method they used to deal with Er Er; to say it now shows they're truly fearless.
"Meng Shisan, are we really still ourselves?" Just then, someone in the square asked loudly.
Meng Shisan turned his head and saw that everyone was looking at him. He smiled and shook his head: "Don't ask me, I don't know either."
Actually, I only found out a little earlier than you guys.
If you really want to know the answer, why don't you ask Xu Xin?
As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Xin in the crowd.
He was speechless when he saw it, but Xu Xin was still acting as if nothing had happened, diligently doing her job as a doctor.
Seeing everyone looking at her, Xu Xin didn't care: "Don't look at me. I'm just like you. I don't know anything, and I don't want to know."
Meng Shisan knew this woman was lying, but he didn't expose her for now. He immediately smiled and said, "Actually, what's in your minds isn't important. What's important is that now that you all know about their existence, do you still have the confidence or the idea to continue?"
Please remember, even if you say you want to, that desire may not necessarily be your true intention.
"Can't we just get rid of this damn thing completely?" someone asked.
"Maybe it is possible, but I don't know how to get rid of it right now. However, with so many of us working together, maybe someone will come up with a solution."
As Meng Shisan spoke, he suddenly laughed, "By the way, are people still afraid of the wasteland now?"
It's getting dark, and those invisible eyes are still watching you.
"The wasteland is nothing!"
After Meng Shisan finished speaking, everyone chimed in, "That's right, compared to this ghostly thing that controls us, the wasteland is far too kind."
At this moment, who among them still worried about the wasteland?
Just as Meng Shisan said, the wilderness is only a harsh environment, but the things in one's mind can control one's thinking...
What's the difference between this and a marionette?
Immediately, everyone started discussing it, and they all wanted to get that bullshit out of their heads.
As for Li Maoran's threats before he fled, none of them paid any attention to them.
Everyone's the same, so what's the point of talking about it?
When everyone is on the same page, conflicts disappear.
Seeing everyone discussing it animatedly, Meng Shisan smiled with satisfaction.
Since I can't figure this out by myself, I'll make it public.
"Meng Shisan, shall we talk?" Just then, the middle-aged man in his thirties who had been there earlier appeared out of nowhere.
Everyone was surprised; was this guy still being controlled?
