poor road [end times]

Because it is uncertain whether the meat of mutated animals is harmful to the human body, the previous base deliberately picked out all the mutated livestock in the breeding area, and drove them to the original breeding pens in remote and barren villages, not forgetting to control their survival and reproduction.Survivors went to nearby villages to look for supplies, and they also deliberately avoided those places, because mutated chickens and ducks can injure people with their beaks and claws, and mutated pigs can push through walls.

Now that it is confirmed that these livestock can be eaten, the base immediately sent people to surround the entire village and the wasteland, restrict their range of activities, and use them as winter food reserves.

A heavy snow covered the green plants, making these hungry animals restless. The base decided to slaughter all the large mutated livestock within a week and air-dry them into bacon.In this way, not only can feed be saved, but also meat can be preserved for a long time, adding another wintering material to the base.

As for the serum of the zombie virus——

Yang Yiqin stood in the laboratory of the Children's Palace and looked at Dr. Liang who was wearing gloves: "Dr. Liang means that although the first-generation serum has been released, it cannot be mass-produced for the time being, and it has not been tested on human bodies, so ..."

"Yes."

"But I heard that Mrs. Chen and the others were injected with something similar to the zombie virus by Sun Tongming. Now that the things in their bodies have been cleaned up, and the serum has not been proved to be effective, is it another virus injected into their bodies?"

"It is true that the zombie virus in their bodies is not a complete zombie virus. It has been screened by Sun Tongming and mixed with the genes of dominant mutants. It cannot be used as the final experimental conclusion." Dr. Liang rolled up his cuffs and lifted the white cloth on Feng Zheng's body. Kai, "Although I injected a lot of things into Feng Zheng, it didn't damage his body mechanism, so the final phase of the human experiment will be done on him."

Feng Zheng could not speak or blink for a long time, he could only stare blankly at the incandescent lamp above his head with his dark and angry eyes.

There is a backup power generation facility in this laboratory.

Perhaps it was intentional, but Qian Guowei never mentioned the requirement to disassemble the power generation equipment and take it away.

The temperature in the laboratory was very low. In order to maintain Feng Zheng's life signs, Dr. Liang would inject him with nutrient solution.When he leaves, he will tie up the other party and lock him in a room with a heating fan.

Feng Lin carried the commonly used ax with one hand, Eagle Watching Lang Gu's brows and eyes were indifferent, and he glanced at Feng Zheng on the test bench: "I'm going to catch a zombie."

"I'll go." Yang Yiqin changed his bow and arrow, "You watch my rear."

Feng Lin didn't move.

"It's hard for you to settle with him. I should be responsible for infecting Feng Zheng." Yang Yiqin continued, "There is also a debt between me and him."

The mutual calculation between Feng Zheng and Feng Lin has come to fruition, Yang Yiqin doesn't think Feng Lin should continue to do it now.Although Feng Lin may not be soft-handed, he is the most suitable person to do it now.

It's just infecting a villain who once wanted to dismember him.

Dr. Liang heard their conversation, squinted his eyes and smiled and said, "Haven't you heard about what happened in the base? People like Feng Zheng have committed so many evil things. According to the laws and regulations before the end of the world, the death penalty is not a pity, and there is no such thing now. It takes so much trouble."

What he said about the incident in the base meant that Feng Zheng actually found a boy outside the base, put him in a supply bag and pretended to be a toy for him and Mr. Zhao.

It's a beautiful name - I want to know what my evil son is up to.

Fortunately, when the blizzard came, the base would send people to knock on everyone's door every day to check the situation of the survivors.Someone also installed a stove in the residence of Feng Zheng and Mr. Zhao, so in order not to be discovered, they haven't had time to do anything.

After Feng Zheng's "death", the base decided to investigate and deal with his belongings, accidentally learned about this matter, and then arrested all the insiders, and dealt with them according to the conditions of prisoners.This incident had an extremely bad response among the survivors, and from that day on, the base began to check all the supplies brought into the base from outside.

The boy was unharmed and is being taken care of by paramedics.

"It's not entanglement." Yang Yiqin said with a smile, "The executioner has his own."

Once Yang Yiqin has insisted, it is difficult to shake and persuade.Feng Lin didn't say anything more, just picked up the ax and followed him out silently, protecting his back.

The nearby zombies have almost been cleaned up. In the weather of more than 20 degrees below zero, the zombies are still wearing summer short-sleeved shorts. The poorer clothes have long been torn and torn, and the purple body is exposed in the white snow. , almost streaking.

Therefore, the joints of each zombie are stiff and deformed, and they walk as if they have just installed limbs.

Although Yang Yiqin himself was wearing thick cotton clothes, a cotton hat and a scarf on his head, compared to the uncoordinated zombies, his movements were still a little bit quicker.He shot an arrow neatly, hurt the zombie's eyes, and successfully attracted the opponent's attention. Then he stood on the spot and waited slowly. When the opponent was approaching him, he took out the scimitar at his side and cut Zombie arms.

Afterwards, he kicked the zombie to the ground, covered the zombie's mouth with the rag Feng Lin handed over, and tied a hemp rope around the zombie's neck.

"You're done." Yang Yiqin clapped his hands and stood up, "Just slip it back."

"and many more."

Feng Lin stopped him.

Feng Lin was also wearing gloves. He leaned over and made two balls of snow, and rubbed the snowball on the zombie's severed arm to block the frostbitten and rotten flesh there, and also stopped the stinky liquid from the zombie's continuous oozing.

After all this was done, he even walked over to help Yang Yiqin wipe off the snow that had rubbed off on his body.

Yang Yiqin smiled at him.

The two held the rope and pulled the zombie whose arms had been cut off into the laboratory.

Dr. Liang has been waiting for a long time.

During this period of time, he was already very tired after going in and out of the base and running between the two laboratories for research.Obviously only in his 30s, he already has distinct white hairs on the top of his head, and the wrinkles and bruises under his eyes are also clearly visible. He looks more than five years older.

He looked at the zombie that Yang Yiqin was leading, with excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

Dr. Liang took out a syringe containing pale yellow serum of zombie virus.

"It's time to start."

After many days of uninterrupted experiments, Feng Zheng on the experimental bed was blindfolded, and had already lost his ability to judge, and let them manipulate him without saying a word.

Without hesitation, Yang Yiqin pulled out the rag from the zombie's mouth and let the zombie approach Feng Zheng.The zombies were controlled, they could only look at the person on the test bench in front of them, and they could only attack this person.

The zombies pounced on Feng Zheng without hesitation, biting Feng Zheng's face to a bloody mess, and the experimental table was stained with minced meat and blood.

A bloody smell soon emanated from the laboratory.

Feng Zheng couldn't lose too much blood. When his nose was completely bitten off, Yang Yiqin pulled the zombie back in time and blocked the zombie's mouth again to prevent it from biting others.

Feng Lin pulled Yang Yiqin to his side, kept him away from the bloody laboratory table, and turned to look at Dr. Liang: "When will the zombie virus serum be injected?"

"Wait a little longer." Dr. Liang pushed his glasses, "We must ensure that after the virus spreads, there is still the possibility of a cure."

Generally, the time for human zombification is between twenty and three ten minutes.During this process, the eyeballs, skin, and wounds of the bitten person will undergo certain changes until they become completely zombies.

Yang Yiqin frowned: "What if it fails?"

If they fail this time, it will be very difficult for them to find another person to be a test subject.

"I will control the time." Dr. Liang explained, "Previous studies have found that in theory, serum has a greater effect on dominant mutants, but what we have to do is to protect all survivors. Feng Zheng is not a dominant mutant , the physical condition is average, it is very necessary to conduct experiments on him."

The three of them waited quietly for 7 minutes.

Until the wound on Feng Zheng's face, from bleeding and pus to emitting a rotten smell, the skin also crawled with purple marks, the eyeballs gradually became chaotic, and the whites of the eyes were bloodshot.

Only then did Dr. Liang plunge the syringe into Feng Zheng's arm and push out the serum liquid inside.After injecting the zombie virus serum, Dr. Liang stepped aside, held his breath again and began to wait for a long time.

Yang Yiqin glanced at the time, counting the time silently in his heart.

Feng Zheng's zombification stopped immediately.

In the next few minutes, black blood began to slowly ooze from his wound, and the eyeballs and their color gradually returned to normal.When the color of the blood became normal and all the bluish purple marks on the skin faded, the other party began to breathe slowly and heavily.

After waiting for another 5 minutes, Dr. Liang stepped forward emotionally, measured Feng Zheng's heart rate and blood pressure, and checked his condition.

"Success."

He said.

When Qian Guowei came to pick them up, he stood outside the laboratory.

Dr. Liang called him in.

This was the first time Qian Guowei stepped into this laboratory after Feng Zheng's "death".When he saw the blurred-faced person on the test bench, he didn't need to guess, he already knew what happened.

Qian Guowei asked: "Successful?"

"That's right, there is no problem with the direction of the teacher." Dr. Liang nodded solemnly, "Injecting serum after human zombification is the same as the experimental conclusion after injecting serum in zombie animals."

"Please tell the base immediately after Dr. Liang returns, and then we will notify the other survivors in the base."

It is rare to have exciting news in the last days. The successful development of the zombie virus serum is definitely the most exciting item.

Although Dr. Liang was also excited, he clearly knew that the problems of the last days were far from being resolved: "I hope Captain Qian knows that the current virus serum is just a small step for human beings to fight against zombie viruses. It's just serum, it can't end the end of the world."

"I know." Qian Guowei nodded, "General Zheng also heard from Academician Chen."

Yang Yiqin was puzzled: "What did you say?"

Qian Guowei explained: "The current zombie virus serum can only be used after being bitten by a zombie, and the effect of eliminating the zombie virus is not [-]%."

Yang Yiqin nodded: "I know that."

"But the teacher's goal is far more than that. He hopes that the remaining humans can be 100% immune to the zombie virus, and it is best for animals to avoid being infected by zombies." Dr. Liang continued, "Therefore, what he wants to study is Zombie vaccine—either inject reagents, after injecting all survivors in advance, no matter when they are bitten or scratched by zombies, they will not mutate again; or spray, use artificial rainfall to spray all places in the city On the one hand, completely eliminate the existence of zombies."

Having said this, Yang Yiqin understood.

The laboratory has achieved results, but it is still some way away from the ultimate goal.

Qian Guowei said: "I believe in Academician Chen's ability."

Dr. Liang pressed his temples and let out a soft breath: "Actually, I hope the teacher will not be under too much pressure. Now that the zombies are moving slowly, and humans already have basic serum, it should be able to avoid the accident of excessive blood."

Advanced things are not so easy to research.

Just like the answer he gave when someone asked him before, it would take at least one or two years to research what the teacher expected.Now it has only been a few months to research the serum of the zombie virus, which has almost exhausted the mental and physical strength of the researchers.

"I understand." Qian Guowei said, "With this progress now, we also hope that academicians can take care of their own bodies and conduct research step by step."

Feng Lin raised a question: "What is the production speed of the zombie virus serum?"

"It won't be soon. At present, there are about dozens of doses a day. In the future, hundreds or even thousands of doses may be achieved, but it depends on the arrangement of the base." Dr. Liang said, "After all, in the current situation, there are not enough manpower, materials, and equipment. , the production line is not so easy to handle.”

"It's done." Qian Guowei said, "There are not so many people attacked by zombies on weekdays."

After several months of confrontation with zombies and mutated animals, they now have a wealth of battle experience, and there are almost no casualties. The blood of zombies is mainly used for emergencies.

But as Academician Chen said, even with the serum of the zombie virus, it is not possible to 100% avoid zombification.In the process of everyone's actions, it is still unavoidable to restrain their hands and feet, especially when encountering hordes of zombies, if they accidentally cut a small wound, it may cause irreversible consequences.

Mutation is worse than death.

Only when a vaccine that is completely immune to the zombie virus appears, can they fight against the zombies without worrying about accidents.

Everyone returned to the base with the results of the experiment.

Dr. Liang communicated with Academician Chen that the serum is useful to the human body, saying it was an "accidental" experimental result.At this point, even Academician Chen noticed something was wrong, but Qian Guowei, Yang Yiqin, Feng Lin and others seemed to know about it...

Academician Chen just shook his head and didn't ask any further questions.

After some discussions among the decision-makers, the base held another morning meeting to celebrate their first snowfall in winter, and then announced the zombie virus serum to the survivors.

In order not to let everyone think that they have confidence and ignore the danger, General Zheng specifically mentioned: "The effect of the serum is not 100%, and it needs to be injected within half an hour. Everyone knows the situation in the base now. We temporarily There is no way to mass-produce a vaccine, and I hope everyone can be responsible for their own lives."

Regarding how to obtain vaccines, the base does not have a specific regulation yet, but it is certainly impossible to distribute one to everyone now, and can only use things wisely.If someone wants to get the vaccine in advance, they can also use two hundred points to sign up with the old man in exchange for it, but one person is only allowed to exchange one for the time being.

Not everyone can afford this price.

At least as far as Lao Yuan knew, only Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin could afford it, and Tang Yongke, the only one who was competitive, had exchanged his points for a new residence and bullets.

But most of the others will not go to dangerous places, so don't worry too much.

People who are always in danger, except for the army who go out to perform tasks every day, there are only a few people.

Finally, General Zheng looked around the more than [-] people on the playground and said slowly: "But please don't worry, better vaccines are still being researched. Moreover, we promise to distribute a vaccine to everyone before New Year's Day. immune serum."

With the production method of serum, it is natural to invest manpower and material resources to build a production line.

The morning meeting ended with cheers.

Just as the old man thought.

Right after the morning meeting, Yang Yiqin and Feng Lin came to him and wanted to exchange two bottles of zombie virus serum with him.

Old Yuan smiled and took a pen to record: "I knew you would come over."

"It's useless to save the points." Yang Yiqin said with a smile, "Of course, when you see something that can be used, you can 'consume' it immediately."

Old Yuan reminded: "It's possible, but you two must be careful, don't be afraid of anything if you have everything in your pocket."

Feng Lin said: "We are not that kind of people."

The old man laughed: "Think about it yourself, is there anyone more worrying than you?"

After finishing speaking, he raised his pen and deducted the points.

Yang Yiqin asked, "When can we get it?"

"Tomorrow, let me tell someone first." Lao Yuan thought for a while, and said, "The laboratory has already guessed that you will come to change, and has reserved two specially, and the rest will be distributed to the troops who often go out first. "

The next day, the base began a prelude to production in full swing, selecting a group of honest and meticulous people with a certain understanding of biological knowledge, teaching them various knowledge, and letting them become assistants in the laboratory to share the pressure of scientific researchers .

Yang Yiqin successfully received two serums and placed them properly in the iron box found from the hospital.

In addition, there is another good thing-that is, after the cure, Chen Jia and his party finally regained their freedom.

The first thing Mrs. Chen and Chen Jia did after they were free was to find their German Shepherd.

Because Zhang Lin was afraid of the German Shepherd, they would not take it with them when they went to the mall.Later, the mother and daughter decided to go to the base. After Mrs. Chen thought twice, she still did not bring the German Shepherd.

All along, the German Shepherd has been protecting their mother and daughter, and they can live better outside alone, so she is ready to pick it up after it is safe.

Before going out, Mrs. Chen took Chen Jia to find Yang Feng and the other two.

Mrs. Chen first thanked them, and then said with deep apology: "Xiaojia caused you trouble before."

Chen Jia lowered her head: "I'm sorry..."

"It's okay." Yang Yiqin said, "I should also apologize to the person in charge of the cafeteria."

At that time Li Bokai almost died of worry.

"I've been there." Madam Chen was full of sincerity, and handed them a bottle of red wine, which she brought from home, "We don't have anything in hand now, so we can only use this as a thank you gift, I hope Your men."

Yang Yiqin shook his head: "That's unnecessary."

Feng Lin only said, "We don't drink alcohol."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chen was a little embarrassed: "Yes, drinking now affects judgment."

"It's not that we want to, it's that we really don't like alcohol and tobacco." Yang Yiqin reminded, "There will be gatherings every week at the base, why don't you take the wine to the gathering and exchange for something, so that it will be convenient for you mother and daughter to live in the future."

Mrs. Chen was grateful again: "Thank you, thank you."

Yang Yiqin asked: "I heard that you are going back to find the German Shepherd?"

"Yes, Xiaojia and I have left it alone for too long." Mrs. Chen said, "There are also military dogs at the base. I heard that I am looking for a German Shepherd, and they said they could give me a ride."

Yang Yiqin smiled: "The military dogs and Huahua at the base have a good relationship and often play with each other. After training, your German Shepherd may become a right-hand man at the base again."

German shepherds are loyal and highly obedient, so they are often trained as military dogs to help the army perform various tasks.

When traveling between the base and the Children's Palace, Yang Yiqin once saw a German Shepherd running in the snow, and the dog seemed to be waiting for his master to come back.

After expressing her gratitude and apology, Mrs. Chen said goodbye to them and left here.

After the mother and daughter of Chen's family left, the kittens in the house began to chase and play unscrupulously, running from the living room to the snowman in the backyard.After several days of continuous renovation, the backyard has been connected to the trail at the end, and a separate landing area for helicopters has been separated.

The Chinese cabbage in the vegetable field grows rapidly and can be harvested in November.

Feng Lin took the roasted sweet potato next to the stove, handed a piece to Yang Yiqin, and said like a charade, "It's almost ready."

Yang Yiqin took the sweet potato and took a bite: "The weather is still left."

During the recent period, there will occasionally be a light snowfall in Beishi, and the wind must be extremely strong at this time, which is not suitable for ordinary helicopters to fly.The two of them started a life of occasionally going out to collect materials, staying at home most of the time to study the road map, and occasionally visiting meteorologist Mr. Shen.

When Lao Yuan learned that they often looked for Mr. Shen, he was still a little confused. He didn't know what to talk about between them and Mr. Shen. The three of them clearly had never met before the snowstorm.

Until one day in November, although the temperature was still more than ten degrees below zero, the sun was rarely shining brightly and the sky was clear.

The pair approached him and said they were leaving the base in a helicopter.

"Leaving?" Old Yuan asked with a smile, "Aren't you leaving every day?"

Yang Yiqin explained seriously: "It will take a long time to leave."

"how long?"

"A few months, or longer."

Hearing this, Lao Yuan's temple couldn't help but twitched, and he asked with a serious expression, "Where are you going?"

"In the southwest of Beihe Province, an 400th-tier village in an [-]th-tier city." Yang Yiqin smiled calmly, "It's about [-] kilometers away, which is my hometown."

For a moment, the old man almost didn't understand what he said.

Feng Lin added another sentence: "Taking advantage of the good weather these two days, there won't be a big storm."

The two looked as calm as if they were going out for a walk.

"Hiss—" Old Yuan gasped, "No wonder!"

No wonder they always visit Mr. Shen recently.
