Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!

Li Sheng immediately put on a flattering smile and said, "Sir, didn't you say that we decide for ourselves how much we eat and how much we leave? I've got a big appetite, and if I don't eat a bit more, I'm afraid I won't last. Besides, Wang Qiang can leave some for him, can't he."

"Oh, is that so~"

Xu Shu seemed thoughtful and then turned to look at Wang Qiang.

However, the canned food Wang Qiang handed over was also completely empty, with not even a morsel left.

"You didn't leave any for him?"

Wang Qiang gave an awkward smile and said, "Sir, I also have a big appetite! Three people sharing this little food, we'd probably starve to death. That Zhang Laosan, he's committed so many evils, he deserves to die, we might as well sacrifice him to give us two brothers a chance to survive."

"Oh, you think like this? Weren't you good brothers?" Xu Shu's mouth twitched, sizing up the other.

"Hey, I don't even know him that well."

Seeing Xu Shu stroking his chin in thought, Wang Qiang's eyes flickered, and he suddenly said, "Right, sir, Zhang Laosan has been cursing you behind your back these past few days, badmouthing you. Starving him to death is actually helping you vent!"

Heh, he's cursing with his mouth, but you guys are cursing in your hearts, right?

The smile in Xu Shu's eyes deepened, but his voice was deliberately exaggerated, "Then you are really loyal! I won't lie to you, ever since I was a kid, I've always admired men who are loyal."

"Sir, you're really too kind. If I can share your worries, I, Wang Qiang, would not hesitate to give my life."

Could it be that this young guy likes showing his loyalty?

Upon seeing this, Li Sheng also hurriedly said, "Sir, I'm loyal too! I've been wanting to kill Zhang Laosan for a long time but was afraid to upset you so I didn't say it, but actually, I've been working on it already, you see, Wang Qiang and I, we intentionally didn't leave him any food!"

"Yeah, that Zhang Laosan is really awful!"

"If it hadn't been for him forcing us into wrongdoing, we would've reformed a long time ago!"

Both began loudly blaming Zhang Laosan, listing all sorts of faults, as if the entirety of the sins were on his shoulders, while themselves as pure as lotus flowers.

Seeing this, Xu Shu couldn't help but laugh and clap his hands in approval, "Good, good, good! In these apocalyptic times, I need men of righteousness like you to lend me a hand. Here's the deal, from now on, you follow me, and I guarantee you wealth and honor."

With that, Xu Shu actually opened the iron gate right in front of them.

Wang Qiang and Li Sheng stepped out, exchanged a glance, first seeing surprise in each other's eyes, then almost instinctively, they knelt on one knee and swore, "Sir, we brothers are willing to serve you! If you say go east, we will never dare go west!"

Within just a few words, it greatly resembled the scene of a young man venturing into Jianghu, stepping into the underworld, and recruiting two forest warriors as his bodyguards.

Xu Shu, however, stood with his hands behind his back, pretending to ponder and said, "With just your little skills, you won't be of much help. Take these."

"These guns from the prison armory will enhance your combat strength. With guns, you can barely help me now!"

During his contemplation, two finely crafted assault rifles were dropped before them.

"Please rest assured, sir!"

Wang Qiang and Li Sheng were on the ground, eyes flickering, lifting the guns to weigh them, immediately thrilled.

The weight is right! These guns are loaded! This kid really treats us as his own now!

Then, Xu Shu turned, pointing outside, "Next, I plan to explore around the prison, scavenge the materials here, take them back to the city, and exchange them for money!"

"You guys will cover my back, don't worry. Since you are with me, there's no need for you to be cannon fodder. Just follow behind me, keep watch, and do the physical work of collecting materials..."

Suddenly, the sound of two guns being cocked cut through Xu Shu's words.

He turned around to find Li Sheng and Wang Qiang already aiming their guns at him, the dark barrels like the eyes of the Death God.

"What are you trying to do? Is this how you treat your boss?" Xu Shu showed a face full of panic and unease.

"Screw your boss!" Wang Qiang spat out a mouthful of saliva, nastily said, "Just because you're some furless little thing, you dare to boss me around? After putting up with your crap for so many days, you finally got fooled!"

Li Sheng raised his eyebrows, full of murderous aura, "Don't waste words on him. This little thief thinks a novice Transcendent can withstand bullets? We've seen plenty of his kind!"

"Hahaha, go die!"

"Die! Not only will I kill you, but I'm also going to lure out and kill your family back in the city! You little bastard raised by a bitch!"

"We have your ID, and your whole family is going to die, hahaha! I won't rest until I've killed them all!"

Both laughed savagely, pulling the trigger, relishing the look of regret and fear on Xu Shu's face.

However,

Click, click, click~

The trigger was pressed, but not a single bullet fired.

"..."

"How..."

Cold sweat slid down their foreheads.

Seeing this, Xu Shu couldn't contain his laughter anymore.

Did I know that giving you the guns would incline you to betray?

Of course, I knew!

The human heart can't withstand too much temptation.

So why did I still test you?

It was on purpose!

Hahahaha!

After laughing to himself for a while, Xu Shu finally said to them, "Well, isn't that unlucky, it's broken. Let me go get you another two to see if they work?"

"You?"

"I..."

Wang Qiang and Li Sheng's faces turned from green to white, visibly agitated.

Caught between running and cursing, they were left in a state of utter disarray.
