38.Pour a golden liquid on your head

Zhou Peng, realizing no one was responding to him, knocked on the door even harder."Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi! It's me, Zhou Peng!""Could you please open the door for a moment? I have something very important to tell you."Zhang Yi chuckled coldly, reached for his gun, and clicked the safety off with a sharp sound.

He walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"Hearing Zhang Yi's response, Zhou Peng quickly extended his hand below, signaling to Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining to prepare themselves.Both women were nervous as they had never been involved in such a deadly affair before. However, the thought of taking over Zhang Yi's warm and comfortable home with plenty of food made their gaze firm.Zhou Peng said, "Zhang Yi, it's me, Zhou Peng. We've run out of food at our place. As colleagues, could you spare some food for me?"He had a pleading look on his face but discreetly kept his hand ready to draw his knife.

Zhang Yi leaned against the door and calmly said, "We've run out of food at our place too. I can't help you with this."Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining cursed silently in their hearts.How could your place be out of food?There were seven or eight boxes of dried scallops, dried scallops, and abalone in your kitchen. Were those all fake?But they were prepared for this situation.Zhou Peng clenched his teeth and took a box of medicine from his pocket."Zhang Yi, I'm not taking advantage of you for nothing! I'll trade you a box of ibuprofen."In this cold weather, many people were suffering from colds and fevers. In such a situation, medicine could be life-saving and might even be more valuable than food.To lure Zhang Yi into opening the door, Zhou Peng took out his cherished ibuprofen.Behind the door, Zhang Yi was thinking about how to deal with them.Kill them?That was easy.

Whether with a gun or a crossbow, he could easily end their lives.However, killing them outright would be too dull.In the post-apocalyptic world, death was a release; it was the living who endured endless torment.He certainly wouldn't let these scoundrels off so easily.

After some contemplation, Zhang Yi came up with an idea.He went to the trash can and took out a bottle of water.Having just consumed several cans of beer, his need to urinate had arisen.He aimed at the bottle's opening and released a stream of liquid."Ibuprofen? Not a bad choice. Let me think about it."While Zhang Yi was relieving himself, he lazily chatted with Zhou Peng.Outside the door, the others faintly heard the sound of water, but they had no idea what Zhang Yi was doing.

However, they sensed that Zhang Yi was playing along, and excitement appeared on their faces.Zhou Peng quickly said, "Yes, yes, just open the door, and we'll make the exchange. I don't need much, just two packs of instant noodles!"Considering the current prices in the community, ibuprofen could at least get him five packs of instant noodles!Zhou Peng deliberately offered a low price, hoping to entice Zhang Yi to open the door."Two packs of instant noodles? I'm afraid you're getting the short end of the stick here; it's not right."As soon as Zhang Yi finished urinating, he found himself holding a bottle of ice-cold iced tea, full to the brim and frothing with white bubbles.

Zhou Peng thought Zhang Yi was taking the bait and leaned against the door, saying, "It's okay. I'm starving right now, and we're colleagues, after all. Why not make it easier for each other? Just open the door, okay!"Zhang Yi climbed onto a stool in front of the door's peephole and poured the warm, fresh iced tea down onto the people outside.Zhou Peng and the others were drenched by the sudden liquid, and they were shocked.Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining screamed in horror."What's this stuff?""Hey, it's hot water, and it's still steaming!"Initially, they felt the warmth and were somewhat pleased.

However, within seconds, they smelled a peculiar and pungent odor."This... this is urine!!!""Ahhhh!"As urine soaked them, the two women screamed like slaughtered pigs and started vomiting uncontrollably on the ground.Meanwhile, Zhou Peng was furious and pounded on the door."Zhang Yi, you %#$!%#$! Get out here, I'll kill you!"But the heavy alloy door showed no sign of damage when he hit it with his fist. Instead, it left his hand throbbing in pain.Inside the room, Zhang Yi laughed heartily."How's the smell of my urine? Enjoying it?""You idiots, trying to deceive me. You think you can get away with it?"Zhou Peng and the others suddenly realized they had been discovered by Zhang Yi.Terrified and angry, they cursed loudly outside the door.Zhou Peng shouted, "Damn, we shouldn't have wasted time talking to you! Just wait; I'll get inside and kill you!"He no longer pretended and took a knife from his clothes, slashing at the door with all his might.

Most doors were made of wood and could be opened once the lock was damaged. However, Zhang Yi's door was a solid alloy that could withstand RPG blasts!When Zhou Peng's knife struck, it was like hitting a steel plate.The door remained unscathed, and the tremendous force of the impact sent the knife flying.

The knife missed Zhou Peng's head by a hair's breadth but left a long gash across his hand.A little biological knowledge - human skin is more vulnerable in winter, and the sensation of pain is more intense.Zhou Peng was stunned, realizing that he had narrowly escaped death. If the knife had deviated slightly, it would have slashed his face.But soon, the intense pain interrupted his shock."Ahhhh!"Zhou Peng screamed in agony.Seeing this, Fang Yuqing and Lin Caining, driven by fear, abandoned him and fled.Inside the room, Zhang Yi contemplated whether to go out and shoot them each once.

He didn't intend to kill them but wanted to make their lives even more miserable in this post-apocalyptic world.After a brief thought, he abandoned the idea.Why?Because outside, there were three mad dogs!While he might injure them by opening the door, there was also a minuscule chance they could retaliate and harm him.Zhang Yi wasn't willing to risk his own life for such a gamble.Yes, he was the king of cunning!He was living a comfortable life, so why take unnecessary risks?"No problem; I'll just wait here and let them suffer. Let's see how long they can survive in this post-apocalyptic world!"Zhang Yi remained composed, returned to the couch, and resumed playing his video game.Zhou Peng and Fang Yuqing returned home, with Zhou Peng sitting on the couch, trembling all over.He had narrowly escaped death, and the fear still haunted him.As for Fang Yuqing, when she saw the urine on his body dripping onto the couch, she immediately screamed."Ah! Get away, who told you to sit on my couch!"
