Chapter 378 Possession of Resources
Su Ming looked at the people around him. Most of them had some minor injuries. One of them had blood on his thigh. His injury looked the most serious, but compared with Su Ming's arms, which had been scraped clean of flesh, it looked like a superficial wound.
When the others saw Su Mingbai's arms, they all showed surprised expressions, and there was even vigilance in their eyes.
This is quite normal. If one were to put himself in Su Ming's shoes, he would also be wary of people who scrape off all the flesh on his arms. No matter how one looks at it, such people are lunatics, and very lunatics at that. After all, if they can be so vicious to themselves, then wouldn't scraping flesh off other people be as easy as cutting butter?
Su Ming's gaze fell on Zhou Xiaoxiao's face. Zhou Xiaoxiao looked surprised, and Su Ming was also stunned with a surprised expression, because... there were four big words scratched on Zhou Xiaoxiao's face with a knife - "I am gay".
On his forehead are the words "I am" and on his left and right cheeks are "Ji" and "Lao" respectively.
Zhou Xiaoxiao noticed Su Ming's gaze, coughed dryly, pushed his glasses, and said calmly: "A test to see if mental abuse has a criterion in this competition, so I chose this method. If successful, I should be able to get more food with less trauma."
"You... are really calm. " Su Ming said angrily. Faced with this kind of situation, he really didn't know what to say.
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Su Ming's bony hand, frowned slightly, raised her eyes and stared at Su Ming's face for a while, then turned her gaze back to the giant monster in front of her.
"Start distributing your food." The eight-legged meat-ball giant spoke.
Then a certain amount of food and water appeared around everyone present. Those who cut themselves only got three or four bottles of water and a few packets of compressed biscuits, while the person who "made a big fuss" on his thigh and his partner got three boxes of canned food and three boxes of water.
Zhou Xiaoxiao got a box of food and a box of water.
As for Su Ming and Xiang Dalong, there was a hill of drinking water and food piled up around them. After counting carefully, there were thirty boxes of canned food, and the other foods were almost half opened. There was also a lot of drinking water.
Xiang Dalong has the same amount of resources as Su Ming, which shows that the victims will not get more resources this time just because they suffer more pain.
"This! So much!" Xiang Dalong was stunned when he saw the large pile of food that suddenly appeared around him. Although he had just experienced a very terrible ordeal, he couldn't suppress the joy on his face when he saw that he got such a large pile of things.
But the people around him looked at Su Ming unfriendlyly. Those who were only allocated three or four bottles of water and some compressed biscuits stared at Su Ming angrily with complaining eyes. They were completely at a loss now. They cut a few costs on themselves only to get such a small amount of food that no one would buy in the convenience store. It was simply a huge loss.
If it weren’t for Su Ming, they would definitely have gotten more than this.
"Hey, are you doing this because you have superpowers?" A woman stepped forward and questioned Su Ming with an unhappy look on her face.
Su Ming glanced at the other person and ignored him. He turned to look at Xiang Dalong and said, "Uncle Long, don't you want to join us? Bring your wife and son to my manor. I will help you move these things over."
Xiang Dalong hesitated for a moment, then nodded readily: "Okay! I'll do as you say!"
The reason why he was able to get so much food was because of Su Ming's self-injury. Even if Su Ming wanted to take most of the food here, he had no objection, not to mention that Su Ming had not said so yet.
"I'm asking you a question!" the woman raised her voice.
Only then did Su Ming look the other person in the face.
"If you had the same superpowers as me, would you do this?" Su Ming asked back.
"No, do you know that all the injuries we suffered will be in vain?" the woman said coldly.
Su Ming glanced at everyone calmly, took a deep breath, and said in a gentle and calm tone: "If you really care about others, then no one will hurt themselves, and the food will be distributed equally, but... you have all seen the current situation, at least everyone seems to have some wounds on the surface.
If you don’t trust each other, don’t ask others to trust you.”
The woman opened her mouth and stared at Su Ming angrily, as if she wanted to continue condemning him.
But Su Ming spoke first: "But I am different. I will distribute what I get equally to everyone."
The crowd was in an uproar, and the old butler behind Su Ming changed his expression. Even though he himself did not participate in this cruel game at all, he knew how precious the resources Su Ming had obtained were. To divide them equally among these irrelevant and untrustworthy people was tantamount to distributing one's own food to rats during an earthquake.
"Master, this!"
"Elton, let everyone move these things back. Also, do you know the rules announced by the monster just now? Stealing and robbing will be punished." Su Ming said.
Elton stared into Su Ming's eyes, he couldn't see through the other person's thoughts.
Finally, the old butler lowered his head and quietly arranged for people to move the resources over.
"Hmph, you will distribute it to us? Then just divide it now! Why move back?" the woman said sarcastically.
"Watch your words and actions. Only if you follow my arrangements can you get food and water. If you don't want to listen, turn around and leave. You will gain nothing and lose nothing." Su Ming said.
The woman's face flushed red, and she walked back to the crowd angrily , muttering unhappily: "Let's see what tricks you can play!"
…
Suddenly, there were many more people in Su Ming's manor. All the people who were originally in the civilian area were called by Su Ming because they heard that Su Ming wanted to distribute food and water.
Although there were a lot of people, fortunately Su Ming's manor was very large. It was originally designed to accommodate an entire family. It had a large number of guest rooms and a huge dining and living room. It could accommodate many people as long as it was renovated with some simple materials.
Su Ming asked Elton to take care of the resettlement of these people. He needed some time alone to think about what to do next.
Su Ming stayed alone in the study, silently chewing the pieces of flesh cut from his body, drinking his own blood, and recovering from his injuries.
After he had finished eating and drinking everything he could, there was still a layer of skin on Su Ming's arm that had not recovered, so he let some blood flow to replace the lost skin.
"Fortunately, I asked my master for those fragments, otherwise it would not be so convenient to start now." Su Ming said to himself.
