Ancient Gene [End Times]

Qin An approached slowly, and put his hand on the door. The door was not locked. Qin An opened it slightly, and a strong sweet smell wafted out from the crack of the door, and the aroma was tangy.

Qin An couldn't help taking a deep breath. He had never smelled this fragrance before, but he thought it smelled very good.

People outside gradually smelled it, and they can only say that this smell makes people feel excited.

Before they could move, they heard a soft meow behind them.Qin An turned his head, and the blue cat was standing behind them at some point, looking at Qin An with a big face crookedly.

Although this cat is good-looking, but with such a huge size, it still feels oppressive to stand up.

Qin An reached out to touch its face, but the blue cat greedily sniffed the fragrance in the air, then raised its legs and went into the flower and bird shop.

Qin An wanted to follow, but was stopped by the soldiers: "I don't know what's going on inside, let's take a look."

Qin An nodded, the cat was about two meters tall, and it opened the door along the crack of the door and squeezed in. The flower and bird shop was not big, and the cat almost filled it up once it entered.

I couldn't see what was going on inside. I could only hear the cat's coquettish meowing twice, and a sudden scream, and then the cat turned around in the store in shock and anger, and rushed out again regardless.

"Ow!" The cat's scream was so sharp that Qin An didn't even see it clearly, the big cat had already run a long way.

Qin An looked back, only to see a two-meter-long plant clip opening and closing inside, like a gluttonous mouth!

"It's a Venus flytrap!" Qin An had watched a video about breeding a Venus flytrap, but he didn't expect that after it mutated, it would be able to drive away the mutated cat.

The giant mouth of the Flytrap was still dripping liquid, Qin An sniffed hard, and could smell a strong sour smell in the liquid, most likely it was the digestive juice of the Flytrap.

Qin An vaguely remembered that Venus Venus flytrap secretes some juices that insects like to emit fragrance to attract insects to forage, and then catches insects and secretes digestive juice for digestion.

Apparently, the alluring fragrance that everyone smelled at the beginning came from this flytrap.

Fortunately, it was the cat that went in just now. If it was a person, the consequences of such a big trap would be unimaginable.The cat's body is huge, and the flytrap cannot catch the whole thing. If it is a person, it is estimated that the upper body will be in its mouth.

So that cat probably saved someone's life here.

A soldier picked up the wooden warehouse and broke the flower stem of the flytrap clip. The clip fell to the ground, and the clip was closed tightly and could not move.

Now, plants have joined the ranks of hunting humans.

Everyone present couldn't help but feel a chill down their spines.

This is a flower and bird shop, all the animals in it don't need to think too much, they must have been eaten by the flytrap.There may still be people, and now there are no bones left.

"Let's set it on fire." Qin An said.

A soldier raised his head to look around, shook his head and said, "There are too many plants around, and the fire can't be controlled, and it's impossible to be sure if there are any residents upstairs. Take a look around here, there are always detours, don't do it here." Come again."

To be on the safe side, it's just for survival right now, there's no need to take such a big risk.

The group backed away for more than 30 meters, and Qin An contacted He Siming after making sure they could no longer smell the fragrance over there.

"Si Ming, the plan has changed. There is indeed a problem with the flower and bird shop, but the road in the middle is still okay. I want to check the surrounding situation again, go around and continue to explore. When we go back, we will find it on our side. Safe routes are drawn on the map."

At this time, He Siming still had blood on his hands. They had just killed a mutant cat that came here to hunt.Cats are natural hunters, and when they set their sights on humans, they are an absolute threat.If it weren't for the suppression of firepower, I'm afraid there would be casualties in this game.

He Siming tried his best to soothe his tone, and said: "Just pay attention to your safety, our departure time may be a little earlier. You should try to come back within two hours and set off together at that time. I have already contacted the army. Now they have vacated a temporary place for us to settle in. Once again, pay attention to safety, and put aside everything else, human life is the most important thing! Do you hear me!"

It was rare for He Siming to speak so forcefully.

"Clear, understand." Qin An replied with a smile.

Although He Siming is usually easy to talk, at this time, his somewhat bookish seriousness is quite oppressive.

A group of people explored around, and there was a residential area separated by a road, with some small restaurants on both sides.I haven't seen large mutant animals or group mutant animals yet, so it's relatively safe.

Qin An heard a few meows faintly in his ears, and he could tell it was the blue cat.Maybe it's because of fate, Qin An intentionally led the group of people to go there.

Hearing the call getting closer and closer, sure enough, a blue cat that kept rubbing its chin against weeds was seen downstairs in a community resident.

The mutated flytrap bit the blue cat from its chin to its neck. At this time, a large piece of fur fell off, leaving only a bloody mess.The cat endured the severe pain but couldn't lick the wound. The paw touched it, but because of the corrosion of the digestive juice, a piece of the paw was rotten.At this time, it didn't dare to touch the wound anymore, so it could only try its best to let the grass rub off the digestive juice to relieve the pain.

Qin An walked over quickly. The blue cat was not on guard against humans, and Qin An had given it chicken legs to eat. Seeing Qin An approaching, it meowed twice.

The voice was very feeble and pathetic.

Qin An raised its chin to see clearly, and saw all the bones.

He hurriedly took out the water bottle and poured it directly on the wound to wash away the residual digestive juice.

The cool water made Blue Cat feel a lot better, and he stuck out his tongue to lick Qin An's hand.

However, after the blue cat mutated, the barbs on it became more severe. After just licking it, there was a red mark on Qin An's hand.

It hurt a little, Qin An stretched out his hand to pat the cat's head, and said, "There's not enough water, come over and pour some more water. This digestive juice must be washed off as soon as possible, otherwise it will rot deeper and it will be hopeless."

One person said: "Now drink less clean water and wash the cat's wound..."

No matter how much you like cats, in the face of life and death, you really shouldn't waste water to save a cat. After all, human life is the most important thing.

"This is not an ordinary cat. After it mutates, it can still be friendly to people, so it may help us fight! What's more, cats are more likely to spot danger than us. We are going to Sichuan, and we don't know what we will meet along the way. How dangerous. We have Xiao Sun, she is a veterinarian, if she is saved, maybe she can save many people!"

Of course Qin An is not the Holy Mother, no matter how much he cherishes life, he will not waste materials at this time.It's just that this cat is destined to be with them, maybe it can give them more hope of survival.

After Qin An said this, there was no one to refute. They all took out kettles or water bottles and poured out half of it to clean the cat's wound.

The digestive juices were washed clean, and the festering stopped.The blood-red flesh looked a little pitiful, and the blue cat was still a little weak, lying there and rubbing its head against Qin An from time to time, very docile.

Cats raised by humans are closer to humans in such a weak situation.

"Well, I'll see if I can take it back. It shouldn't be too dangerous to look at the map ahead. Go and see." This cat is very valuable. If you are willing to go with him, you should take it back as soon as possible. Xiao Sun looked better.

"It's too dangerous, let me go back with you." A soldier said.

Qin An shook his head and said, "Don't worry, my ears are very good. Even if this cat is injured, it's not easy to mess with. Besides, I'm familiar with the way here. It should be quick to go back. The front is more dangerous than the back."

Qin An patted the blue cat, took a few steps back, and clapped his hands to tease the blue cat to walk with him.

The blue cat was raised by humans and could understand a little bit of human speech. Hearing Qin An say "come here", he struggled to get up and followed Qin An slowly.

Just like that, Qin An took the blue cat back to the camp.

As soon as Qin An left, a soldier contacted He Siming on the walkie-talkie.He Siming hurriedly took two people to greet him from a distance.Xiao Sun heard that a cat that had mutated to not eat people was injured, so he insisted on following.

On the way back, there is no need to tie your hands and feet, and you will be there in half an hour.Seeing He Siming coming with three people from a distance, Qin An waved:

"I've seen the cat catch the bird, and it's very neat. But it was bitten by the flytrap in the flower and bird shop. Seriously, if it hadn't entered the flower and bird shop first, we might go in and check, and there might be some Casualties. It is very close to people, so I want Xiaosun to show it. After it is cured, we will take it away and have a guarantee on the way to Sichuan.”

Qin An stretched out his hand to pet the blue cat. The blue cat wanted to lick Qin An, but Qin An avoided it.However, he scratched the bridge of its nose reassuringly.

Xiao Sun walked over, touched the cat's face, and checked the wound.

"Are you sure it's the digestive juice of the plant?" Xiao Sun asked in disbelief with some astonishment.

Qin An nodded: "It's the Venus Flytrap. As soon as the door was opened, I smelled a particularly attractive fragrance. This cat came in by smelling the scent. You should have heard of the Venus Flytrap, which attracts insects through its fragrance, and secretes and digests them after catching them. It’s liquid. It’s just that after it evolved, the secretion of digestive juice is faster, and it’s secreted almost when it’s biting.”

"The cat's reaction speed is very fast. Even if it is bitten accidentally, it has been frightened and escaped before being stinged by the digestive juice. Therefore, the digestive juice should be rubbed on its fur and then gradually digested inward. Yes." Xiao Sun used the tools he carried with him to sterilize the cat briefly.

The blue cat was stabbed, turned around and groaned twice, Xiao Sun patted its head and said good, then the blue cat really lay there obediently, letting Xiao Sun heal it.

The cat is mutated, the digestive juice has been washed, and it has begun to heal at this time.

"The trap of that flytrap has been knocked out. But this kind of thing can grow a lot, and according to the speed of mutation, it should reproduce very quickly. It's really so scary, we have to circle farther." Qin An turned his head. Looking at He Siming, he found blood on his body, "Are you injured?"
