#337 - Chapter 337: Unknown Thing
Cloud City.
An unknown small town.
The buildings here are not densely packed. It used to be just a very ordinary town within Cloud City, with a relatively low population density.
At this moment.
Away from the national highway, there is a building.
This is a building resembling an old-fashioned slaughterhouse.
The area it occupies is not small, but the number of floors is not many, only about three stories. The exterior walls have been weathered and eroded by acid rain, making them look dilapidated.
But, now a group of people live here!
Inside, on the third floor, there is a large hall.
It seems that it was previously used for some food production and processing, as can be seen from the black and smelly traces left all over the floor!
From the ceiling of the hall hang iron chains, and on the hooks at the ends of the chains hang items covered with plastic sheeting.
Counting them carefully, there are at least fifteen or sixteen!
On the ground, there are some iron basins with burning embers, seemingly roasting the hanging objects.
Even though all the windows on the third floor are open, a peculiar stench still permeates the entire space.
It's like some kind of meat that has been smoked and cured, but it's hard to say what kind of meat it is.
There are also some separate rooms next to the hall.
Thump, thump, thump!
A series of heavy footsteps echoed on the staircase connecting the second and third floors!
Soon, several men appeared, carrying two more items wrapped in plastic sheeting.
Alright! The 'big meat' is prepared, let's hang it up and start dehydrating it.
A middle-aged man, over six feet tall, with a shaved head, a face full of橫肉, and a pair of eyes emitting a frightening murderous aura, grinned.
He was also wearing an apron stained with inexplicable stains.
Like a pig-slaughtering butcher.
This bald giant seemed to have just finished his work. He wiped the sweat from his face with his dark sleeves carelessly and skillfully hung the two plastic-wrapped 'foods' on the iron hooks hanging from the roof!
Clang!
Two more items were added to the hall.
Besides the giant man, the other male survivors who helped seemed to have done this kind of thing more than once. After finishing, they consciously left the third floor.
Leaving the bald giant alone, he strode towards a room next to him.
Boss! Old Xu and the others caught two more 'meat pigs' this morning. I just finished processing them!
The giant man casually took off his apron and draped it on a table in the room. Then, he familiarly found an office chair inside and sat down, while speaking to a man sitting behind a desk inside.
This was a room similar to a small office. There were not many pieces of furniture inside, just a few tables, a sofa, and a few chairs. There were also a few posters hanging on the wall, one of which vaguely read: Jianda Meat Processing Factory.
Behind the best-looking desk, a man slowly turned around and looked at the apron-wearing giant man.
Biaozi, how many times have I told you? Don't put the apron on my desk! It's filthy!
This was a man about thirty-two or three years old, with a somewhat trendy hairstyle. His appearance could be considered handsome, but the skin exposed all over his body was excessively fair, even rare on a woman.
At this time, he was impatiently complaining to the giant man.
His voice was very feminine, like a woman's voice, and coupled with his fairly good appearance, it gave people an extremely incongruous feeling!
Boss, okay, next time for sure!
The bald giant grinned, revealing a smile. Combined with his appearance, he could simply be pulled to film a horror movie.
No need for makeup!
Seeming to be already familiar with each other, the effeminate man was not really angry. This was just his usual way of speaking.
The weather has been getting hotter and hotter recently. The 'meat pigs' must be properly preserved, and the smell must not be allowed to spread!
He said softly.
Then, he slowly and methodically continued to play with a small snake coiled around his finger!
Yes!
It was a green snake!
If anyone recognized it, they would exclaim that it was a venomous snake called a bamboo viper!
The effeminate man was not at all afraid of this terrifying creature that could kill an ordinary person with a single bite, treating it like an insignificant pet, wantonly letting it pass between his fingers!
Hehe, of course! I dissected them all and marinated them with professional techniques. After smoking them and dehydrating them, they can be stored for a long time without any problems!
Moreover, I have already asked people to take the internal organs to the 'garbage dump'. We are very safe here!
The bald giant raised his hand and touched his smooth head, smiling smugly.
In peaceful times, he was a pig-slaughtering butcher. Now, after the apocalypse, he just continued to engage in his old profession.
He can eat his fill every day, and there are also fun things to do.
His body has also undergone incredible evolution.
This kind of life is not bad for him.
Well, not bad.
Give Old Xu a note, from now on, he will be our core member. If anyone dares to provoke our slaughterhouse's core members, we must never let them go!
The effeminate man was in a good mood. The 'food' for the slaughter group he established was replenished every day. Although there were many subordinates to support, the probability of continuing to find 'meat pigs' was high!
What about the other hunting team members? Did only Old Xu come back?
Playing with the small snake, the effeminate man suddenly said this.
His group is not very large at the moment, only about seventy or eighty people.
Relying on the special method he created, their residence will not attract too many zombies at night.
In addition, their slaughterhouse has been specially reinforced and is considered a good fortress!
Only that time when the purple mist appeared, the method of attracting zombies with the 'garbage dump' was not very effective. Helplessly, they had to slaughter a few subordinates who were not too familiar to use for 'sacrifice'.
So these 'people' have been living quite well.
The others haven't come back yet. Old Wei just came back. He found a woman and we locked her up first! Haha, this one is very good, I suggest raising her first!
Speaking of this, the bald giant felt a slight surge of anger.
Oh!?
Not bad! Take me to see what she's like! If she's good, Old Wei must be rewarded heavily!
As if he had heard some good news, the effeminate youth opened his eyes wide, revealing a joyful expression.
In his slender eyes, there was a strange red color.
Seeming a little impatient, he urged the bald giant to leave the room quickly and go see the 'spoils of war' that Old Wei brought back from hunting.
The breeze they stirred up, coupled with the gusts of wind blowing in through the open windows of the hall.
Blew up the hanging objects in the hall!
“They” swayed slightly.
On the floor, below “them”, occasionally some black and red juices dripped.
Squeak.
Squeak.
Squeak.
The small sound of the iron hooks and iron chains rubbing against each other echoed in the room.
Combined with those slowly swaying and inexplicable things.
An unsettling and terrifying scene vividly emerged!
