The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 33 The Second Test

"Kill him? That's it?" Qing Ling was a little surprised. She didn't expect the test to be so simple. It was easier than playing games with Wu Dahai.

Gao Yang was also surprised. He also thought it was simple, so simple that it was suspicious.

"Yes." White Rabbit looked at the two of them: "It's easy. Cutting off the head or stabbing the heart with a sharp weapon is similar to killing someone."

"It's easy to kill him, but how to deal with the aftermath?" Qing Ling was worried.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." White Rabbit wore white gloves and tapped the walkie-talkie on his waist, signaling that he still had his companions and that everything was under control.

Qing Ling no longer hesitated, she walked towards Niu Xuan, with a sharp small dagger in her hand.

She squatted down, cut open Niu Xuan's shirt, and found the position of the heart. The tip of the knife was aimed at the gently rising chest. When the tip of the knife was about to pierce the heart, Gao Yang shouted: "Wait a minute!"

Qing Ling stopped and looked at Gao Yang doubtfully.

"Qing Ling, wait a moment." Gao Yang said.

White Rabbit also looked at Gao Yang, "What? You don't want to join our organization?"

"No." Gao Yang asked tentatively: "I just don't understand why you want to kill him. He has not transformed into a beast." And how are you sure that Niu Xuan must be a lost person?Gao Yang didn't ask about the last sentence, so he must have something special about him.

"There is no reason, you don't need a reason to kill the beast." White Rabbit's tone was sparse and normal, "If you have to give a reason, our organization needs awakened people who are decisive in killing, firm in stance, and capable of fighting. We don't need to sympathize with the beast. A man of compassion.”

"Just a lost person." Bai Tu took a step forward and kicked Niu Xuan on the ground. "If you don't want to kill him, just change him. Well, let me see if the girl named Wan Sisi likes you. Yeah? I will help you find out if she is a lost person in a moment. If so, just kill her."

Gao Yang was secretly frightened, what a keen observation.

"Have you thought clearly?" White Rabbit urged.

Gao Yang was silent.

He is not a holy father. People like Niu Xuan will die when they die and have nothing to do with him.What's more, he is not a human, just a crazy beast.

However, there are a few places that are very concerning.

The first is the White Rabbit's words - kill this lost one.

She could have just said, kill this beast, why must she emphasize that it is the lost one?This at least shows one thing, the attitude of her organization towards the lost (crazy beasts) must be different from other beasts.

Under normal logic, all beasts except the crazy beasts are dangerous, and the attitude of the awakened towards them must be to eliminate them.On the other hand, since the attitude towards crazy beasts is different, there is a high probability that it is the opposite of elimination - not elimination.

White Rabbit said this was a test, but in Gao Yang's opinion, it was more like a choice.

In the face of "innocent" lost people, White Rabbit has been inducing.

——Just a lost person.

This sentence weakens and belittles the existence value of the lost.

Then, White Rabbit "threatened" himself by planning to kill Wan Sisi.This is a common comparison induction method: on one side is the cute and innocent Wan Sisi, and on the other is the bullying Niu Xuan.

Which one is more important is very obvious.

This is like a trick used by couples: the wife first tells her husband that she likes a bag worth 2 yuan, and after a while she tells her husband that she likes a skirt worth hundreds of yuan. After weighing the two, the husband says nothing. Say: Buy a skirt.

Bai Tu's current behavior is to make him and Qing Ling make an immediate decision: kill Niu Xuan.

If they killed Niu Xuan without hesitation, it would prove at least two points.[-]. They think the lost can be killed.[-]. They believe that there is a distinction between lost people.

These two points are contradictory.

Indifference to the life of the beast shows that in this person's eyes, the beast has no "right to life."But for a creature that does not have the "right to life", it is treated differently.It feels like... I can't kill my own cats, but I can kill cats raised by others. This is such a double standard.

"If you don't kill me, I'll default to you giving up." White Rabbit glanced at his watch: "You don't have much time, you have to leave me some room to deal with the aftermath."

Give it a go, the bike turns into a motorcycle.

Gao Yang made up his mind: "I refuse."

"What?" White Rabbit thought he heard wrongly.

"We will not kill the lost." Gao Yang was firm.

Qing Ling glared at Gao Yang: Are you crazy?
Gao Yang blinked: Trust me!This is a set!

"No," Bai Tu couldn't help but laugh, "Sao Nian, I advise you not to be too smart. Hot-blooded comics are poisonous, so watch them less. This is the only chance. I just went through the process and missed it. This time, the door of the organization will never be open to you again. Think about it clearly." "Think about it clearly and don't kill me." Gao Yang said.

"OK." Bai Tu spread his hands and looked at Qing Ling: "Then the boy is out, what about you?"

Qing Ling thought for a moment, the dagger in her hand disappeared, and she decided to believe Gao Yang.Experience told her: This kid is very lucky, at least he hasn't cheated himself yet.

White Rabbit sighed with regret: "You two are quite good in quality, and your serial numbers are also very high. It's a pity. Can I ask, why are you unwilling to kill the Lost?"

Huh?
Isn't it?Didn't pass?Do you really think too much?
Gao Yang suddenly regretted it, but he had already come to this point and it was hard to step down.He scratched his head and started to make nonsense: "Because... order."

"order?"

"I believe that the world has its own order in which it operates. Killing the lost indiscriminately will destroy the order." Gao Yang said seriously, his face not red and his heart not beating.

The white rabbit seemed to be thinking.

It seemed that this was not enough to scare people. Gao Yang quickly applied what he had learned and said another sentence: "Idiot, greed, anger, delusion, life, and death are all in vain. Life is short and only a big dream."

The girl wearing the white rabbit mask seemed a little surprised. She quickly stepped forward and came to Gao Yang. She stepped slightly, tilted her head, and stared into Gao Yang's eyes.

Through the white rabbit mask, Gao Yang also saw a pair of clear and lovely almond eyes.

"Sure enough, you have the same eyes as the captain." White Rabbit's tone became much gentler.

"What look?" Gao Yang asked.

"Hmm," White Rabbit thought for a while, "It's that look that looks listless and seems like he hasn't woken up, but is actually very enigmatic."

Gao Yang thought to himself: Just say hello.

"Aren't people with such eyes powerful?" Bai Tu looked at Qing Ling.

"do not know."

"You actually said something similar to the captain." White Rabbit stepped forward and patted Gao Yang on the shoulder: "Okay, passed the assessment."

"Oh."

Gao Yang's face was expressionless, but if he had a tail on his butt, he would definitely be wagging it vigorously - the bet was right!

Bai Tu turned around and kicked Niu Xuan, who was still unconscious.

"The rules are set by our captain. There are only three rules, so remember them."

"One, I will never take the initiative to kill humans."

"Two, never take the initiative to kill the lost."

"Three, no office romance is allowed."

"Violators will be permanently expelled from the organization."

"..." Gao Yang thought he heard wrongly: the first two regulations sounded quite lofty, but what the hell is the last one?No wonder Wu Dahai was so horny, but even if he was allowed to have an office romance, no one would like that guy.

"Have we already joined the organization?" Qing Ling asked.

"Don't worry, you are now in the probation period. If you want to become a full-timer, there is still one last test." Bai Tu put his hand into his trouser pocket and took out a small object. She threw it lightly, and Qing Ling caught it and held it in her hand. Looking at it, I saw it was an old-style brass key.

"Find the door with this key and go in for a walk." White Rabbit said.

"that's it?"

"That's it." White Rabbit repeated calmly.

"Let me take a look." Gao Yang took the brass key from Qing Ling's hand, and suddenly felt a sinister aura spreading on his fingertips. He didn't know whether it was because his perception had enhanced his sixth sense, or if it was simply psychological effects.Gao Yang grabbed the key, "But, where are we going to find the door?"

Bai Rabbit stretched out a finger and said, "I'll give you another hint. The range is locked in Shanqing District."

"Any other tips?" Gao Yang couldn't get enough of useful information.

"Let me think about it," White Rabbit touched his chin and started thinking, "Be careful, don't die."
