I take skeletons to the apocalypse
Chapter 13
Zhang Lin stood in the middle of the road, as if she had been fixed, and did not move for a long time.
Cao Jin took two steps forward, took a look, and gasped: "Hiss, isn't this the old man from yesterday?"
He shook his head and clicked his tongue twice, sighing: "Hey, I asked him to stay in the store yesterday and he didn't listen, now it's all over, I didn't get home, and my life is gone. It's a cake for nothing."
Yu Qianqian stood behind Cao Jin, looked at the corpse on the ground with her head, and retracted her neck in fear. "Has this person been to the store yesterday? He... what was bitten by him, and he looks so scary?"
"Like some kind of insect." Xia Xi held the insecticide and stood a little further away.He was a little frightened, such a wound, just looking at it, made him feel uncomfortable.
Xia Xi has always had a natural fear of insects.Whether it was a magic bug or an ordinary bug, Xia Xi was afraid, feeling horrible and disgusting.
"How could this be bitten by a bug? What kind of bug has such a big mouth?" Cao Jin questioned, and then, as if thinking of something, he twitched and cursed: "It won't even bite the bug." Has it changed?"
"I want to send Uncle Yuan back." Zhang Lin turned around and looked at the three of them.
Cao Jin refused on the spot: "No, who knows where the thing that bit him is hiding, what if it crawls out of the sewer with this flip?"
"Yes, Sister Linlin, we are almost in danger now, so let's not bother with such nosy things?" Yu Qianqian also echoed with a full face of resistance: "Besides, this is a corpse, it is not very easy to move it back. It's about to stink."
Zhang Lin could only cast her begging eyes on Xia Xi: "But Uncle Yuan said that he wants to die with Auntie. I don't want to, he can't even realize this wish. Besides, Auntie stays at home alone, life and death I don't know, if I don't take a look, I really can't feel at ease."
Xia Xi could see that Uncle Yuan's death had a great impact on Zhang Lin. Now her eyes are a little distracted, and her train of thought is not clear.Xia Xi has no feelings for this Uncle Yuan.But if it's Zhang Lin's request, he doesn't mind helping her.
"How about this, Sister Lin." Xia Xi thought for a while: "It's important, let's go to the supermarket to exchange supplies first. After I come back, I will accompany you to confirm the current situation of Auntie. If Auntie is still alive, you can also ask her Views."
"And even if we carry Uncle Yuan's body, we can't carry it with bare hands. At least we have to go back and prepare some tools."
"Yeah." Zhang Lin nodded, her eyes became focused: "Okay then, let's go to the supermarket first."
Zhang Lin continued to walk forward with a group of people, but she still looked at the sewer entrance where Uncle Yuan was located with great concern.
Just when Zhang Lin looked back at the manhole cover behind him again, a black bug the size of a palm emerged from the manhole cover.It looks a bit like a cockroach, but its size is much larger than the local cockroaches in Lanshu City.Then came the second, and then the third.It gradually became a small group with a clear goal, and the team rushed towards Zhang Lin neatly. .
Zhang Lin's expression changed, and she called out to the others sharply, "There are bugs!"
Xia Xi's scalp went numb just hearing these three words.When he turned around, the mutated cockroach was already less than three meters away from him.
There are dozens of mutated cockroaches.Arranged neatly on the road, they move fast, and the long tentacles above their heads sway from side to side, as if they are communicating with each other.
Facing a palm-sized giant cockroach that was approaching rapidly, they seemed to have been immobilized, and the soles of their shoes and the ground were firmly stuck together by fear, unable to move.
"Jing Lan, Jing Lan..." Xia Xi unconsciously shouted, shaking her lips.
The voice brought back Zhang Lin's reason: "What did you say?"
Only then did Xia Xi come back to her senses, realizing that she had just called Jing Lan's name.He can't be blamed for this, he was afraid of bugs before, and when he saw bugs at home, he always called Jing Lan to beat them. After a long time, he developed a conditioned reflex, no matter what bug he saw, he would call Jing Lan subconsciously.
"Run, run, run!" Yu Qianqian also came back to herself, screaming and rushed forward.
Following her greeting, the survival instincts of the other three were finally aroused, and they almost ran away.
Zhang Lin was the fastest, Cao Jin and Yu Qianqian ran in the middle, Xia Xi had a pair of slippers, and she was not good at sports, so she quickly fell to the end.
"Hurry up, Xia Xi." Zhang Lin slowed down, and took the biscuit box in Xia Xi's arms into her hands.With two boxes of biscuits clasped in one hand and Xia Xi's arm in the other, he rushed forward.
However, a two-legged human cannot outrun a six-legged cockroach, let alone the s version.
The cockroach running in the front was about to nibble on Xia Xi's heel.
That does not work.Xia Xi took out the insecticide that he had prepared before.
He had long concluded that the trip, if mortal, would most likely come from these plentiful insects.
Mutated plants generally cannot move in the early stage, and as long as the mutated beasts don't appear in groups, they are not a big threat.Only mutated insects, they are small, numerous, and fast-moving, and they must be the most difficult to deal with in the early stage of the mutation.
Fortunately, the bugs are only in the initial stage of mutation, and their body structure should not be much different from before. Strongly targeted agents like insecticides should still be effective against them.
Xia Xi sprayed behind her.The pungent smell rushed out of the bottle along with the white mist, forming a white barrier between the people and the bugs.
As expected, the mutated cockroaches slowed down, and the instinct engraved in their bodies made them reject the potion.
But here it was outside, and the moving wind quickly took away the smell of pesticides.In just two or three seconds, the mutated cockroach became active again.
Xia Xi could only run forward while spraying the cockroaches with medicine when they were about to reach them.Only in this way can it barely maintain a balance with the cockroaches.But after several sprayings, not only were the cockroaches not poisoned by the drugs, but they seemed to have gradually adapted to the smell.The stay time after each spraying is getting shorter and shorter.
"So, no, I can't shake it off." Xia Xi said out of breath.At the current speed, they couldn't get rid of the cockroaches, and they didn't have to wait until they reached the supermarket gate before they would be overtaken by the swarm of cockroaches coming from behind.
And not every boss is as kind as Zhang Lin. Seeing such groups of mutated cockroaches, the normal way of people is to confine the doors and windows, right?
A bit of determination appeared in Zhang Lin's eyebrows and eyes: "Aren't there just dozens of bugs, I roasted them!"
As Zhang Lin spoke, she pushed Xia Xi forward, lowered herself and turned on the flame of the spray gun, aiming at the nearest row of mutated cockroaches.The lethality of the spray gun was indeed different. As soon as the flame touched the body of the cockroach, it immediately burned violently.
The mutated cockroach curled up in the flames, as if it had been roasted dry, and gradually turned into a piece of charred coal, and stopped moving.In the middle of the carbon block, irregularly shaped crystal nuclei can still be vaguely seen.
But this is too inefficient.When three or four cockroaches were killed, dozens of other cockroaches had surrounded the two of them in groups.
One of the mutated cockroaches finally touched Xia Xi's heel, opened its mouthpiece, and took a bite.
The sharp mouthparts are like two thin blades, easily gouging out a piece of flesh the size of a fingernail.
Xia Xi felt the sharp pain from his heel, and looked down to see a mutated cockroach climbing up his instep.Long tentacles swayed at the ankles, and the huge body covered most of his feet.The tips of the six insect legs hooked on the long flesh of the feet, tingling and itching.A pair of long elytra flapped and moved behind it, and it raised its flat head, as if it wanted to continue climbing.
Xia Xi only felt that the thread called reason in his mind snapped with a "snap".
Xia Xi, who was in extreme fear, looked calmer than before. His pale skin was taut, his thin lips were lightly pursed, and his purple eyes glowed with an inorganic cold light, as if his soul had been stripped away.
In a split second, Xia Xi remembered seeing insects in the kitchen at home once before. Xia Xi was so frightened that she quickly took out the insecticide to fight the insects to the death, but was stopped by Jing Lan, saying that the organic insecticide would explode when it encountered an open flame.
Organic... Xia Xi quickly glanced at the bottle of insecticide in his hand, on which was written: xx brand organic insecticide.
He raised the insecticide, hit the huge cockroach on the back of his foot with the bottom of the bottle, and knocked it flying.
"Spray gun." Xia Xi pointed the insecticide at the cockroaches that fell to the ground, and said at the same time.
Zhang Lin quickly pointed at the cockroach and burned it.
The moment the cockroaches were ignited, Xia Xi simultaneously pressed the insecticide. The white mist of the insecticide passed through the burning cockroaches, and the mist turned into a billowing golden flame, instantly engulfing the entire string of cockroaches behind.
"Wow! What was that just now? It's so handsome." Yu Qianqian called out.
Xia Xi didn't answer, but turned to look at the approaching cockroach on the other side.
He casually gathered the silvery hair in front of his forehead to the back, revealing a smooth forehead, his chin was slightly raised, and the delicate outline cast a small shadow on the slender neck, which looked sharp and angular.
Xia Xi ordered in an extremely calm voice: "Come again!"
Zhang Lin understood Xia Xi's intentions, and immediately ignited another cockroach with the spray gun again.Natsuki sprayed the insecticide again.
After a few attacks, more than half of the mutated cockroaches were killed or injured, and the rest touched each other with their tentacles, and quickly turned around and ran towards Cao Jin and Yu Qianqian on the other side.It seemed that Xia Xi and Zhang Lin were too dangerous, and planned to change to two easier prey.
It wasn't until then that Xia Xi felt fear belatedly, and stepped back a few big steps in fear, shaking her lips, and leaned exhaustedly on a telephone pole covered with small advertisements.
His heels were numb with pain, a lot of blood flowed from the wound, and every step he took made a sticky sound when he stepped on the slippers.
Cao Jin took two steps forward, took a look, and gasped: "Hiss, isn't this the old man from yesterday?"
He shook his head and clicked his tongue twice, sighing: "Hey, I asked him to stay in the store yesterday and he didn't listen, now it's all over, I didn't get home, and my life is gone. It's a cake for nothing."
Yu Qianqian stood behind Cao Jin, looked at the corpse on the ground with her head, and retracted her neck in fear. "Has this person been to the store yesterday? He... what was bitten by him, and he looks so scary?"
