"Tang Tian, this is not a place for you to be arrogant, you'd better apologize to me!" Zhang Ling was almost enraged by Tang Tian's words, furiously roaring at him.
"Tang Tian, what do you mean? Speak clearly!" Zhang Hao also suppressed the anger in his heart and said.
However, his unconscious action of placing his hand on the hilt of the knife beside him due to anger fell into Tang Tian's eyes.
The two Zhang brothers flew into a rage, and the more than 100 people following behind them also revealed ferocious expressions. The weapons in their hands gleamed menacingly as they took a step forward, as if they would charge to the death at Zhang Hao's command.
Achoo!
The movements of these people also made the army that followed Tang Tian take up their weapons in hand, taking a neat step forward. Compared to the people behind Zhang Hao, their momentum was even stronger, after all, they were well-coordinated soldiers who had just experienced a big battle.
The strengths and weaknesses of both sides can be seen at a glance.
Having seen all this, Tang Tian was completely nonchalant and smiled as he said: "You ask me what I mean? I came here with good intentions, risking my life to see if there's anything I can help with. You're asking me what purpose I have? What do you think I mean? What purpose do I have?"
Zhang Hao was able to thrive in the tens of thousands of people at Tianshui University, and it's clear that he wasn't a reckless and impulsive person either. He knew that everything should be done with careful consideration, and the current situation didn't give them an overwhelming advantage. He stopped his brother who was about to rush forward and said: "Since Brother Tang has spoken, then he must have come to help us. That's great! We've been hungry for a whole day and trapped here. So please, Brother Tang, think of a way to get us some food and rescue us, how does that sound?"
"What does he want from me?" Tang Tian sneered in his heart, knowing exactly what Zhang Hao was up to - just trying to get him to back down and have everyone on the third floor of the cafeteria stand on his side.
Tang Tian sneered and said: "Alright, you want to eat? There is food, but why should I give it to you? Rescuing you from the campus is possible, but why should I help you?"
"Tang Tian, you're too cold-blooded. Can't people help each other in this dangerous world? Are you only looking out for your own interests and not caring about others' lives?"
Before Zhang Hao and his brother could speak, Shen Yun, who was standing far away, suddenly spoke out loudly. As the Heaven's Proud Daughter, she had always been surrounded by flattery and praise from others, so how could she have seen such a bare and naked human nature?
Regarding Shen Yun's words, Tang Tian didn't put his heart into it and said without turning back: "Cold-blooded? On the day Zhang Hao and others arrived, I risked my life to enter the forest alone. I remember you were standing by Zhang Hao's side like a little bird relying on someone. Did you ever advise me against it for my safety? Of course, even if you said something, I would have left anyway. But did you say anything that made me feel warm? This can also be considered your oversight at the time. However, before the apocalypse, didn't your family live a good life? Then why didn't you skip one big meal or buy fewer cosmetics? Do you know that the money from skipping one big meal could allow a poor child in the mountains to go to school? Do you know how many people in Africa could eat their fill with the money from not buying one bottle of cosmetics? Not mentioning these, just now I was fighting with zombies and leading people downstairs. Which one of you came to help? Is my life worthless compared to yours? You say I don't care about others' lives, but shouldn't others have a reason to care about mine too? It's really unknown how many days the apocalypse has been going on, why can't this brainless fool see the reality in front of him?"
"You... you scoundrel...", Shen Yun was left speechless by Tang Tian's barrage of words, and the last sentence he used to scold her, "big-breasted but brainless", made her so angry that she couldn't say a word.
"Hmph! If you yourself don't lead by example, then don't blame others for being cold-blooded. Are you kidding me? First of all, the food was all found by me at the risk of my own life, so why should I give it to you? At least before the apocalypse, didn't everyone believe in 'those who work get paid'? What have you done for me, Tang Tian? You people who are always high and mighty, have you ever seen others' hardships and offered a helping hand? You're even unwilling to admit that you're an idiot!"
After speaking out what was on his mind, Tang Tian suddenly felt a lot more comfortable in his heart. He was originally a struggling orphan who had suffered cold shoulders when he was down on his luck. Now that he had the ability to stand up for himself, these high-and-mighty people were actually saying that he lacked humanity? This made Tang Tian feel both amused and saddened by such people at the same time.
It's already this late and you still think you're a rich young lady.
Tang Tian's words not only indirectly answered Zhang Hao, but also expressed his own attitude. If you want to eat, it's okay, bring something to exchange or do things for me. If you want to escape hardship, that's fine, then you'd better come up with a reason that can convince me to save you!
Whether it was Shen Yun or the others present, they were all left speechless by Tang Tian's words. Many of them weren't cowards who didn't dare to fight, but everyone around them was waiting for someone else to take action. Why should they be the ones to stick their necks out? As a result, the whole group waited for someone else to come and rescue them.
However, when Tang Tian said these words, the corner of Zhang Hao's mouth on the opposite side slightly curled up, because he knew that Tang Tian's words had already completely stood on the opposing side of everyone here, which was exactly the result he wanted to see.
Looking at the people around him, Zhang Hao understood the color of Tang Tian's exclusion and opened his mouth to say: "Tang Tian, since you have food, take it out. If it's a matter of exchanging things, we'll think of a way to make up for it."
Zhang Hao wanted to add fuel to the fire, while pushing Tang Tian to the opposing side of everyone, he also wanted to stand on the side with more people, so that in the end it would be more beneficial for himself.
Tang Tian is not a fool, and he must have thought of such a result when he said these words, but in his heart, he didn't take it to heart at all.
After Zhang Hao finished speaking, Tang Tian smiled and appeared with a bag of rice in his hand under everyone's stunned gaze. He said with a smile: "If you want to eat, I have some here, and there's a lot of it, the price is also very cheap. You've all killed zombies before, right? Then you must have God Coins. It's not expensive, 10 God Coins for one or two catties of rice, whoever wants it can come and exchange for it."
Zhang Hao never thought that Tang Tian would actually be able to take out something edible, but where Tang Tian took it from he had no idea.
But suddenly Zhang Hao's heart moved violently and he looked at Tang Tian's left hand!
"Space equipment! Yes, it must be space equipment. Only this way can things be taken out silently and quietly. This thing must be obtained." Zhang Hao thought to himself with a burning heart.
He's no fool either. The games he played before the end of the world, doesn't it seem like that now? With a little thought, you can see the key to the matter.
"I'll trade with you..."
At this moment, a tall and strong boy walked out of the crowd with a new wooden stick in his hand and came to Tang Tian not far away, saying...
