Ancient Gene [End Times]
Chapter 42
"I'm not sleepy yet."
"I have to hurry tomorrow, so I should rest first." Qin An looked at the surrounding environment.When he came out of the ground, his consciousness had been very fuzzy, and now he was seriously awake.
They don't know much about Tiangui, but since they are soldiers, they won't have any wrong thoughts at this time.
"By the way, your clothes can't be washed now, but they are dry, and they just smell bad." He Siming said.
Now there is no condition to change the clothes. The clothes have been soaked in the liquid from the python's body, and the smell is very bad.
"I don't have the chance to pay so much attention to it." Qin An's body is quite dirty now, "Hurry up later to see if you can meet the river, and then wash it well."
He Siming brought the clothes over, and Qin An felt nauseous after smelling them.But with the current conditions like this, there is nothing to be ashamed of.
Putting on his clothes, Qin An pushed He Siming into the bed to let him rest, stood up and mutated the cochlea, and paid attention to the movement around him.After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he went to look at the giant python that swallowed him before.
The meat of the boa constrictor is very strong. When Qin An was in its stomach, he once bit off two bites of the meat.
Qin An mutated his hand, pierced the python's flesh and tore it forcefully, directly tearing a piece of the python's flesh.
The biggest advantage of such a monster is its huge size.In this way, even if Qin An and He Siming had the ability to pierce its armor, they still couldn't give it a fatal blow.
Qin An's internal breakthrough at that time was actually more accidental.
Even without the help of Tiangui and the others, if Qin An came out of the boa constrictor's stomach, he would still cause fatal injuries to the boa constrictor.But if Qin An hadn't been in its stomach, the entire army might have been wiped out today.
Still suffered a loss in size.
It would be nice if it could be bigger.
After watching the dead python, Qin An went back to watch over the fire.Some small mutated animals were discovered and removed by Qin An before they approached. Some large mutated animals, perhaps because they were afraid of the smell of the giant python here, did not get close.
It was almost early morning before Qiu Ling woke up.
Walking to the side of the fire, Qin An was in a daze: "What are you thinking about?"
"I was wondering if there were no them, if I wasn't in the snake's belly, how would we deal with that python?"
"I can't deal with it." Qiu Ling said directly, "You were in a coma at the time. Even if you were awake, with your degree of mutation at that time, joining forces with He Siming would at most be a delay. With the physical strength of a giant python, it is enough to delay you to death. "
"What is the degree of mutation at that time?" Qin An heard her subtext.
"Give me your hand." Qiu Ling stretched out her hand.
Qin An stretched out his hand, and Qiu Ling felt for his pulse and said, "I found out when you got out of your stomach. At that time, your whole body was mutated. Although it didn't take long, it is important to increase your explosive power several times in a short period of time." No problem. Now if you cooperate with He Siming, he will distract the python's attention, and it will not be too difficult for you to take the opportunity to insert your arm into its seven inches."
Qin An nodded, what Qiu Ling said made sense.
Afterwards, Qiu Ling said again: "But this is just talking on paper. And even if you and He Siming are teaming up to deal with this giant python now, according to their characteristics of being crazy about perfect genes, in the eyes of giant pythons, how can you compare?" Siming is delicious, so it may not be feasible for He Siming to attract pythons. And if you are used as bait, He Siming's current degree of mutation is not enough to kill pythons."
"You understand this very well?" Qin An asked.
"You haven't played games?" Qiu Ling asked back.
There are many strategy games like this, Qin An shook his head.
Qiu Ling smiled and said, "I remembered, you are a traveler, and you are playing for real."
This sounded awkward, Qiu Ling laughed to herself, picked up a piece of roasted meat and warmed it up on the fire.
After a while, Bao Xinyu also woke up.
Seeing that Qin An woke up, he rushed over: "Brother Qin, have you recovered?"
Qin An nodded, patted Bao Xinyu on the shoulder and pulled him to sit down: "You're freaking out!"
"It didn't scare me to death." Bao Xinyu wanted to cry without tears, "It's okay to say that in the underground, when you were eaten by that snake, Brother He went crazy!"
In Qin An's impression, He Siming rarely lost his composure.Even when we first met, He Siming was full of bookishness.It took a long time to get to know him better, and he realized that He Siming was just a little lonely.
Later, when they got acquainted, in Qin An's eyes, He Siming became more and more flesh and blood. Aside from his obsession with studying and unable to extricate himself, he is actually an ordinary person.
"Crazy?" Qin An looked back at He Siming who was resting, and remembered He Siming's behavior when he was almost killed by a mutant dog.
"You should have seen the subsidence on the ground. It was He Siming's handwriting." Qiu Ling said, "He was crazy at the time and wanted to bury the giant python. He didn't mutate very much, and the connection he established with the jade card was not that bad." If it’s not high, you have to force yourself to be like this.”
"A boa constrictor is not easy to suffocate even if it is buried, right?" Snakes are generally good at holding their breath, and there is a small amount of air in the soil.It is no exaggeration to say that it may not be able to kill the boa constrictor even if it is buried for a year or two.
"He couldn't think of a second solution." Qiu Ling understood He Siming's thoughts at the time, "You were eaten at the time, and his mutated ability couldn't save you at all, so he could only rely on the newly obtained jade token. "
Thinking about He Siming at that time, Bao Xinyu shuddered and said, "And didn't you say that you will die if you force yourself to use the jade token too much? At that time, Brother He really wanted to kill the python! Fortunately, the army came, and you Come out too, or else our circle will be finished."
In fact, Bao Xinyu didn't mean to blame He Siming.After all, He Siming was extremely exhausted at the time, and the continuous high-intensity use of mutations and jade cards had brought him to the brink of collapse. Coupled with the stimulation of Qin An being swallowed, it was normal for him to lose his mind.
Although Bao Xinyu didn't know how deep the relationship between the two was, but seeing He Siming's meticulous attitude towards Qin An on weekdays, it wouldn't be too surprising that He Siming would die for Qin An.
Qin An looked at He Siming's sleeping appearance, and felt a little subtle in his heart.
Qin An couldn't tell what that feeling was.Just looking back and thinking about it, everything that He Siming has done to him along the way is worthwhile in this life if there is such a person who cares about him.
When he insisted on surviving alone, all he wanted was to see He Siming again, but now He Siming is desperately fighting for Qin An.
Two people who were supposed to be in two worlds, now the bond is getting deeper with the end of the world.
This feeling is actually quite good.
Qin An looked at Tiangui and asked them, "Do you know these people?"
Qiu Ling said: "Anyway, they are not in the big army."
Qiu Ling has been in a coma and knows very little.Bao Xinyu woke up a few times and heard some fragments of words.
"He seems to be related to Brother He." Bao Xinyu slept far away, and only listened to it sporadically when he woke up.When people hear something, they always like to change it a little bit in the language they understand to enhance their memory, but they soon forget the process of processing it, so they firmly believe that what they remember is the truth.
"relative?"
"That's right. I heard from the captain that Brother He wants to call his girl what kind of mother?"
"Mother? Auntie?" In the north, the aunt is the wife of the elder brother of the parents. In the south, it is generally called aunt or auntie.
"Then I didn't hear clearly. He also said that he would take us to the Northeast instead of Beijing." Bao Xinyu said.
"Is this going to meet relatives?" From Bao Xinyu's description, that's all.
Bao Xinyu said: "Then I don't know. But since they are relatives, it's normal to go and have a look first. In this world, it's good to have relatives to walk around."
Bao Xinyu was young, and he was in the rebellious period before the end of the world, so his parents rarely took him when they went out to visit.So after the end of the world, Bao Xinyu wanted to find his relatives, but he didn't know where to look for them.
Qin An tried hard to think, he knew very little about He Siming's family.All I know is that his family's conditions should be good, and He Siming usually dresses well.However, He Siming is good at English and has a certain level of Japanese. Sometimes he does some part-time jobs on the Internet to make money.
From the previous few words, He Siming made a lot of money online.But no matter what, it is certain that He Siming has a weak relationship with his family. He has not heard him mention his family for so many years, and he has not visited relatives.
This is very similar to Qin An.Both of Qin An's parents died, leaving behind three houses.At that time, many relatives came to the door, and some bitter masters wanted to take advantage of it. At that time, Qin An had not yet passed the rebellious stage, and he really offended some people by speaking indifferently.
Afterwards, it was passed on from ten to ten, and Qin An's "notoriety" spread. It was said that his six relatives did not recognize him. After a long time, no one got close to him.
Fortunately, Qin An is free by nature, relying on three flats in Beijing, he does not work and travels around all year round.The prodigal son can't be called, but he is definitely a worthless child in his mouth.
Qin An never cared about that, it was left to him by his parents, and he didn't steal it.
"Wait until they get up tomorrow and ask them carefully." Qiu Ling obviously didn't believe Bao Xinyu's statement.She knew that the sky ghost's identity was not simple, otherwise she and her brother would not have known about it.As long as He Siming has some unusual background, he cannot be sent to Tibet to do this dangerous task.
There should be other reasons for this.
The three of them chatted without saying a word, and it was three o'clock in the morning.
Silver Fox and White Fish woke up and told them to go to rest for a while and hurry on their way at dawn.
Qin An turned back and got into the bed. He Siming, who was in the bed, smelled the strange smell from Qin An's body, and was awakened by the smoke, and opened his eyes slightly with his eyes narrowed.
Qin An said: "Go to sleep for a while." He Siming was completely relieved when he heard Qin An's voice, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep again, regardless of the smell.
When the white belly rose from the sky, the silver fox woke everyone up.Everyone got busy together, cooked the soup, and divided the rest of the rabbit meat.After a delicious meal, I packed my bags and started on my way.
The group of people had rested and had enough food, and they walked steadily.
The front and rear are fully armed with special forces, because they are traveling through the forest, sometimes they can pick some wild vegetables with better taste and even harvest some edible roots and fruits on the road.
The trees grow wildly, and it feels like entering a virgin forest when you walk in. With the overgrown weeds, it is more difficult to walk.
There are not many compressed biscuits, and the long-term eating of meat makes me feel tired.There was still a small bag of rice in the corner of Qin An's backpack, and he suggested that it could be cooked into porridge with some meat and vegetables at noon.
Anyway, it's a staple food.
Before Qin An left, he cut off a piece of the giant python's flesh.The giant python ate him, and he always had to eat a few more mouthfuls of the giant python's meat to vent his anger.
The problem with food is not that big, no matter how bad it is, they can still hunt mutated animals to eat.But right now the water source is in a bit of a hurry.
Qin An drank all the water in He Siming's kettle in one go, and there was still less than half of the water in Qin An's kettle.Bao Xinyu is young, and he is not very good at saving water, so he just moistens his lips pitifully.
There is not much water in the five special forces water bottles.Made hot soup last night and this morning and the water is running out.
Heavenly Ghost pointed in one direction and said, "There is a stream over there. Last time we replenished the water source there. It takes about two hours to walk this way. Can you hold on?"
The physical strength of ordinary people still cannot be compared with special forces.
"It's okay. When I was in the big army before, didn't I persist in walking for more than ten hours a day?"
"The mountain is different from the flat land. The terrain here is uneven, and walking on the mountain road will consume several times the physical strength." Qiu Ling explained.
"That's okay! Shall we eat the snake meat brought by Brother Qin at noon? I've heard that snake meat is delicious, so I wanted to eat it yesterday."
"Okay, let's roast snake meat for lunch."
The white fish in front looked back at Tian Gui after hearing this, and smiled helplessly.As a group of them came all the way, their diets became irregular.Eating is basically eating when you feel hungry to replenish your energy.
But it's good to eat regularly, I don't know how long I will last like this.
"You guys came here pretty fast, did you come by plane?" He Siming asked Tiangui.
"How dare you take that one? When we received the mission, we were actually in Xi'an. When we got the mission, we changed three cars and all were scrapped by mutated animals. Seeing that we were getting closer, we simply walked over here. Already." The ghost said.
He Siming thought about the conversation he had with the officer, and said, "I remember that Beijing sent two teams of special forces."
"It should mean that the other team came from Beijing." Tian Gui thought for a while, "If you are in the special warfare brigade with me, it will be calculated according to the task assignment, and it might be Bawanghua who is sent here."
"What?" Dichlorvos, who was walking behind, raised his voice an octave higher, "Bawanghua? No way!"
"Is this the name of their special forces team? It sounds like a female soldier." Qin An had heard before that there was a women's special forces team in the special forces.In the past two years, several themes about female special soldiers came out, which once aroused the enthusiasm of girls to become soldiers.
"What female soldiers!" Didivous shuddered and said, "I didn't realize what kind of female soldiers they were, they were a brood of tigresses!"
Although the other three did not speak, they nodded secretly.
At any rate, Tian Gui still looked like a captain, and said: "Restrain yourself! What a tigress! That's a comrade-in-arms of our special warfare brigade!"
Die Di shrank his neck and didn't say any more, secretly praying in his heart not to be these living ancestors.
He Siming found it interesting to see their reactions, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
"Can't you see? I've suffered a lot." Tiangui said, "Two years ago, I had a joint training with the ** special warfare brigade of the ** military region, simulating actual combat. A total of twelve special warfare teams competed with each other. Our special warfare team finally At the critical moment, I almost lost to those overlord flowers."
Hei Niu laughed a little honestly, and said: "At that time, the other special forces didn't take them seriously, and suffered from underestimating the enemy. If the boss hadn't kept his mind at that time, he would have really lost."
Bai Yujie said shortly: "I remember that Dichlorvos was directly hung up, and his pants fell off."
Dichlorvos looked ashamed, turned around and said, "Sorry to say that to me! Who is so embarrassed!"
"Okay! What's the fuss at this time!" Tiangui suppressed their mutual denunciation, and their entire team didn't need to face any further.
"Really so powerful?"
"At present, there are only four special operations teams composed of all women in the country, and our special operations brigade only has one. Back then, Bawanghua ranked second in the training camp and became famous in the first battle. Later, many special operations teams admired them to simulate actual combat. , So far, nine victories and one defeat." Actually, Tian Gui is also quite interested in them, and the more difficult things he is, the more he likes them.
"Then I really want to see it." What kind of appearance can make these strong men tremble.
But the Bawanghua special team is second, so the first is obviously Tiangui's current special team.
Although it is only a confrontation exercise between two special warfare brigades, their strength can be seen.
"If they were really sent here to meet you, then it will be a matter of time before we see them." Tian Gui hadn't seen them for a long time.The special forces themselves are busy. In addition to missions, sometimes they help train rookies, and there are very few opportunities for the various units to meet.
Qin An suddenly remembered, and asked He Siming, "I heard from Xinyu that you and Tiangui are relatives?"
"What?" He Siming was taken aback for a moment, and the ghost beside him was also a little confused.
"What do you call his girl mother?"
Looking at their reactions, Bao Xinyu guessed that he had heard wrongly, so he smiled at them awkwardly.
He Siming stretched out his hand and pushed Bao Xinyu's head: "You're not too old to tell lies, right?"
Heavenly Ghost said: "We have nothing to do with each other, but my old aunt has a special status. When I was young, I almost got together with his teacher, so I joked that He Siming almost called me an old lady. This kid got it wrong."
"I'm eighteen!" Bao Xinyu protested.
"Take out your ID card and let me have a look." Dichlorvos interrupted.
"I'm eighteen! I'm 61 years old." Bao Xinyu said with a blushing face.
"Isn't that seventeen?" This year was '78, and '61 was 17 years ago.
"Who is still one year old, isn't it all counted according to the false age?" Bao Xinyu quibbled.
"Others don't care, soldiers here must say one year old." Dichlorvos pushed Bao Xinyu's head, "Young melon egg."
"You're a cucumber!" Bao Xinyu wanted to confront him, but was pulled back by Ke Chenguang.
day by day
"You're a cucumber!" Bao Xinyu wanted to confront him, but was pulled back by Ke Chenguang.
He said bluntly, "You can't beat him again."
Of course Bao Xinyu knew that, being stopped by Ke Chenguang, he bared his teeth at Dichlorvos.
Dichlorvos's character is indeed a bit cheerful, and he can get along with children.
The misunderstanding was resolved, and Qin An was a little curious about what kind of person the old lady Tiangui was talking about was.
After walking for another two hours, Qin An's mutated ears could hear the sound of running water.
"I heard the sound of water!" At this time, the group was a little thirsty, but they couldn't bear to drink the remaining water.
He Siming confirmed Qin An's statement: "I heard it too! It's the sound of water! It should be the stream you met before."
Knowing that their hearing is better after mutating, Tian Gui nodded and reminded everyone: "There are many mutated animals drinking water near the stream, everyone should pay attention to the surrounding situation at all times. After fetching water as soon as possible, leave as soon as possible, and find a place to rest after walking far away."
It is common sense that the vicinity of wild water sources is the most dangerous, but even if it is dangerous, it is worth drinking a sip of water.
The group of people accelerated their pace and soon heard the sound of water.
Bao Xinyu licked his dry lips, and he almost walked to the front of the line: "I'm thirsty!"
"Don't drink the water after fetching it for a while!" Qin An reminded, "Most of the water in the wild is not clean, you have to boil it before drinking it!"
Qin An has learned a lesson about this.In the early years, when I went camping with my travel friends, I was thirsty on the road and drank the water from the stream. As a result, I couldn’t bear the diarrhea that day and went down the mountain overnight to the hospital.
At that time, there were no mutated animals, and they could go to the hospital at any time if something happened. Now there is no place to treat diarrhea and death.
Bao Xinyu knew that what Qin An said was good, so he licked his lips again, feeling a little disappointed.But thinking that I won't have to worry about running out of water for a while, I feel better.
There was still some boiled water in Qiu Ling's kettle, and she asked Bao Xinyu for a kettle, and poured it all out to him: "Drink it. There will be a water source soon, and I will fill it with new ones."
Bao Xinyu took the kettle, smiled at Qiuling, poured the water for himself, and quenched his thirst with a sip.
Soon at the water source, four special forces stood outside to pay attention to the surrounding situation, and the others filled their water bottles as soon as possible.Then replace the positions of the four and fill the kettles alternately.
"There are fish!" Bao Xinyu pointed downstream with surprise.
A fish more than one meter long swims up from the bottom of the shallow stream with difficulty.Tian Gui also saw it, and seeing Bao Xinyu's joyful face, he took out his dagger and threw it hard, and directly fixed the fish's head.
A one-meter-long fish is enough for eleven people to eat.
Hei Niu, who happened to be next to him, went to pick up the fish, and the fish struggled to move twice, getting some water on Hei Niu's clothes.
Tiangui pulled up two tougher weeds by the stream, waited for the black bull to come over, retracted the dagger and head, inserted the grass through the fish's gills, took it out from the fish's mouth, and then tied a knot.Silver Fox walked in the middle of the team, and hung directly on Silver Fox's wooden warehouse.
The silver fox was carrying a light sniper, and it was just enough to be used as a stick when it resisted on the shoulder, hanging on to the fish and walking away.
"We've found our lunch. Come on, and don't get caught by other animals."
Fish meat is lighter than those rabbit meat, and it is relatively better absorbed.
Bao Xinyu's eyes were full of the sky ghost throwing the knife just now, and his eyes were a little different when he looked at the sky ghost.
Ke Chenguang looked at Bao Xinyu with sparkles in his eyes, feeling a little helpless.
But looking at them in military uniforms, they are still a little envious.
Leaving the stream, the group of people walked faster for nearly half an hour before slowing down, walking through the weeds, and began to look for a place suitable for noon rest.
Qin An walked to He Siming's side in two steps, and asked, "Are we really not going to Beijing?"
"Going now may not be a good thing. Why, homesick?" Although Qin An is a wild person, he is also a person with roots, and He Siming knows this well.
"It's okay. I'm just worried that so many people will rush to Beijing by then, and when those people are resettled, will my three houses be directly expropriated?"
Three suites, two for long-term rent and one for short-term rent.If someone rents it, it will be rented out, and if no one rents it, Qin An will keep it by himself.In fact, most of his luggage is still stored in the house rented to He Siming.
Sometimes when he comes home tired from playing, Qin An will go to He Siming's house to live for two days if the lease term of the short-term rented house has not yet expired.It was very cheap for Qin An to charge He Siming's rent, and He Siming couldn't wish for them to stay for a few days.
"Why would I leave one for you? Besides, you've mutated now, so you're afraid you won't have a place to live in Beijing?" Even with Ke Chenguang included, there are now three mutated talents in the country.Even if mutated people become cabbages everywhere in the future, people with a high degree of mutation like Qin An are still rare.
At least He Siming can feel now that Qin An's evolution has surpassed him by a lot.
"That's right." In fact, Qin An doesn't even know what his own strength is now.After getting out of the giant python's belly, Qin An felt that his own strength had been raised to a higher level.Naihe mixed with five special forces, small mutated animals were chopped off by a knife when they approached, and a bullet from a large animal was perfectly solved.These six ordinary people only need to go on their way, and don't have to worry about the rest.
After walking for more than an hour, the sun began to tilt to the west, and we found a good place for rest.
Still covered with rocks, a lot of weeds.Bai Yu and Hei Niu picked up some dry firewood and came back, Tian Gui crushed the dried leaves to make tinder, and lit the fire with flint.
Put a larger lunch box on it, fill it with water and bring to a boil.
There is no large container, so I can only cook one by one. In order to avoid wasting time, I only boil three pots of water, and save the rest for the night, and clean up the fish at the same time.
Qin An made an experiment, stuffing the wild vegetables, roots and a little fruit picked along the way into the fish belly, then rubbing salt on the fish and roasting it on the fire.The one-meter-long fish is not easy to cook, so it is pierced with a wooden stick, and two people carry it from time to time. It takes nearly an hour to confirm that it is completely cooked.
At this time, all three pots of water were boiled.There are only two girls, so they drink one jug of water and the other two are for the other men.The fish was cooked later than expected, so the free time was enough to boil a pot of water.
Qin An couldn't wait to cut off a piece of meat from the belly of the fish, and brought out some "stuffing" from the belly of the fish.
Qin An took a bite of the fish himself first, the salty taste went in, and there was no change with a little fragrance, and the wild fish tasted very fresh and delicious.Take another bite of the rhizome, it is sweet and soft and absorbs some fish fat, which is called a fragrance.
"Delicious!" Qin An nodded, asking He Siming to taste it too.
When He Siming also confirmed that it was delicious, there were two people who tested the poison and confirmed that it was delicious, and other people gathered around.
Give the two people who grilled the fish the most, and Dichlorvos and Silver Fox eat last. Check the surroundings first.
Qin An's piece of snake meat is too late to roast, it can be used as dinner.The weather is slightly cooler now, and the meat is not easy to spoil.
"How much salt do we have?" While eating, Ke Chenguang remembered that Qin An seemed to be the only one with salt.
"I still have a small bag here." Qin An said.
Heavenly Ghost said: "We still have some, which should be enough in the short term. But we may have to live like this for a long time in the future, and the seasoning still needs to be added."
"It would be great if this fish had some cumin and pepper." Bao Xinyu took a bite of the meat and said.
"You're fine if you're not hungry enough." Qiu Ling thought about it: "We still have to take the highway when we get out of the mountains. It's best if we can get a car, but if it's not good enough, we can get something from those abandoned cars. The materials must have been collected almost now, and if the materials are collected in unfamiliar places, there may be unnecessary troubles."
"In other words, we can also see if there are any people in the city who are willing to exchange materials for food. For us, the meat of mutated animals is easy to obtain, but for those who are timid and dare not kill animals, this It shouldn't be that easy to obtain." He Siming said.
Tiangui nodded and said: "It can be considered. But in terms of cars, we people need at least two cars. Buses and bread are more dangerous, and off-road vehicles are the best choice. But encountering mutant animals while driving will be very tricky. There is a danger of the vehicle overturning before getting off in time."
"Even having a few motorcycles or even bicycles is better than walking on two legs." Qin An said.
"That's true. We need mobility aids."
"Transportation?" Bao Xinyu looked at Xiao Sun, "Sister Sun, don't you have a cat?"
"Let's go with the big troops." Xiao Sun said.Xiao Sun is usually reticent, and usually she won't speak at all if it doesn't involve her.
Only then did Qin An remember: "I have forgotten that Xiao Sun's ability is to communicate with animals, or to tame animals. As long as they are mutated animals, and they have not lost their minds, they can be used for themselves. If you find two running A mutant animal that looks more stable is much safer than a car."
"Running more stable?" Dichlorvos said, "I rode a pig when I was young, and it was quite stable."
Qin An recalled the day when the pigs were fighting in the field, and shook his head: "If the pigs are irritated and can't stop them with all their might, I guess they will be able to fight people when they meet a mutant animal. I prefer dogs, especially those with a gentler and quieter personality. They ride on and fall off. The chances are slim.”
"Speaking so much," Qiu Ling said, "First of all, we need animals that can be controlled. Animals that are mutated and still rational are rare. Where can we find them?"
Qin An took out his mobile phone and wanted to look at the map, but the mobile phone was turned off and couldn't be turned on at all. He took out the power bank to charge the phone, but it still couldn't be turned on.Qin An was eaten by a giant python before. It is estimated that the mobile phone was soaked in the liquid in the python's body and turned into bricks.
The only entertainment tool is gone, not even a map.
Qin An began to hesitate whether to throw it away.
Tian Gui opened the small bag, rummaged through a few sheets of paper, and pulled out a map of the local county.
After searching on the map for a while, he pointed to a location and said, "There is a zoo here, maybe you can come here to have a look."
Qin An thought of the mutated elephant, frowned and said: "In a zoo, the number of mutated animals will be quite large. Not to mention whether there will be any sane mutated animals, even if there are, ten crazy monsters will have a huge impact on one sane monster." mutant animals, there is no chance of winning.”
"I don't think so." Tiangui said, "The food in the zoo is limited. After they went crazy at first, they first ate people and then devoured each other. Those irrational mutant animals will leave for food when there is no food around. But those who are still sensible will wait around here for familiar people to feed them or raise them. Even after the mutation, animals that are familiar with humans still prefer to live in the environment where they grew up."
If it mutated at the beginning, the zoo would definitely be hell without any suspense.But after such a long time, they ate everything in the zoo. I don't believe they won't go out for food.
At that time, even if they encounter mutant animals, there will not be many.They still have enough ammunition and ammunition, which is enough for them.
"The core of whether this idea is feasible is, Xiao Sun, are you absolutely sure?"
Xiao Sun nodded: "As long as it is not an animal with too high IQ, I am sure to tame it."
"Is this related to IQ?" Qin An asked.
"Well, the higher the IQ, the more benefits will be maximized, such as trading or negotiating conditions, such as primates. Animals with lower IQs will not, which is true for most animals." Xiao Sun said, "But even if it is Primates, without the sound IQ of humans, I can gain trust and goodwill."
Xiao Sun's mutation itself has no combat effectiveness, but the added value it brings may exceed everyone sitting here.If conditions permit, Xiao Sun alone can command an entire army of mutated animals, what will it be like?No one dared to think.
Tiangui looked at this little grandson who didn't talk much a little bit more.I didn't expect this honest and honest little girl to have such great abilities.
Tiangui's eyes turned to Qiuling again: "What about your supernatural power?"
"Chicken ribs."
"What?" Sky Ghost had never heard of such a supernatural ability.
"Language talent." Qiu Ling said with a blank expression, "I can learn a language in a very short period of time. So far, I can basically know all the languages in the world that are understood by more than a million people. Domestic dialects He is also basically proficient. But in the current world, it takes a lot of effort to go out two steps, don’t you think it’s tasteless?”
If it were placed in peacetime, Qiu Ling's ability would definitely be cheating.But in this world, Qiu Ling's ability can only be described as tasteless.
A little surprise appeared on Tian Gui's face, and he said again: "This talent is very good for hiding one's identity, how can it be said to be tasteless?"
Qin An and the others nodded silently.The group of them suffered from Qiu Ling's talent.
"You can say what you want." In fact, if Qiu Ling had a choice, she would definitely not want this harmless talent.
"You don't need to belittle yourself so much. This kind of innate ability is a lot ahead of others."
Qiu Ling opened her eyes slightly: "How do you know?"
"Qi Xi told me."
"Where is he now?" Qiu Ling asked.
"How could I know him. In this world, where do you think he can go?" Tian Gui laughed.
Qiu Ling's eyes dimmed a bit, she bit her lips and did not speak.
Bao Xinyu came over and asked, "Your brother seems to be quite powerful?"
"That goes without saying." Qiu Ling gave Bao Xinyu a blank look.
"Then how many children in your family?"
"My parents died when I was young, and my aunt raised me. In theory, he is my cousin. My aunt has seven children, and he is the youngest."
Bao Xinyu opened his mouth, and finally sighed: "Hero mother!"
Since the ten-year disaster, the population has shrunk significantly, and the country has begun to encourage births, and even a certain amount of subsidies will be provided for multiple births, but there are very few such consecutive births.
"There is no way." Qiu Ling opened her mouth to say something, but she felt that it was inappropriate to say it, so she simply swallowed it back.
Tiangui looked at Qiuling and stopped talking.He knew a little bit about this mysterious family.Although this family is mysterious, it has never been a bad person.In other words, their shoulders bear more than any other family.
He Siming vaguely seemed to hear something, but he couldn't be sure, so he pulled Qin An: "Listen carefully."
Qin An focused on his ears, narrowed his eyes and listened: "This voice...is a flock of birds!"
At the beginning of the end of the world, Qin An and the others suffered countless losses from the bastards.Now meet again!
Tian Gui's face became serious, and he asked, "Which direction?"
"Over there, there is a small bird chirping, it should be a small bird!"
It’s okay if it’s a large bird, because large birds rarely drill into the haystack, but small birds don’t have this scruple, and even because of the flocks, the mutated birds want to eat people, and they can take advantage of their numbers to no avail!
The ghost's expression also changed.
"Everyone! Try to hide as much as possible! Don't make a sound and hide in the bushes! Don't make a sound!" Tian Gui glanced at the sky and couldn't see the trace of the bird for the time being, but since the sound was getting closer and closer, it was very likely. It might be coming this way.
A group of people searched for cover as soon as possible, and the special forces and Ke Chenguang moved most neatly.Bao Xinyu was still trying to get into the grass, but Ke Chenguang pulled him into the bushes and held him down.
"Hei Niu! Get ready for smoke and bombs!" Tian Gui said.
"Yes!" Hei Niu
"I have to hurry tomorrow, so I should rest first." Qin An looked at the surrounding environment.When he came out of the ground, his consciousness had been very fuzzy, and now he was seriously awake.
They don't know much about Tiangui, but since they are soldiers, they won't have any wrong thoughts at this time.
"By the way, your clothes can't be washed now, but they are dry, and they just smell bad." He Siming said.
Now there is no condition to change the clothes. The clothes have been soaked in the liquid from the python's body, and the smell is very bad.
"I don't have the chance to pay so much attention to it." Qin An's body is quite dirty now, "Hurry up later to see if you can meet the river, and then wash it well."
He Siming brought the clothes over, and Qin An felt nauseous after smelling them.But with the current conditions like this, there is nothing to be ashamed of.
Putting on his clothes, Qin An pushed He Siming into the bed to let him rest, stood up and mutated the cochlea, and paid attention to the movement around him.After confirming that there was nothing wrong, he went to look at the giant python that swallowed him before.
The meat of the boa constrictor is very strong. When Qin An was in its stomach, he once bit off two bites of the meat.
Qin An mutated his hand, pierced the python's flesh and tore it forcefully, directly tearing a piece of the python's flesh.
The biggest advantage of such a monster is its huge size.In this way, even if Qin An and He Siming had the ability to pierce its armor, they still couldn't give it a fatal blow.
Qin An's internal breakthrough at that time was actually more accidental.
Even without the help of Tiangui and the others, if Qin An came out of the boa constrictor's stomach, he would still cause fatal injuries to the boa constrictor.But if Qin An hadn't been in its stomach, the entire army might have been wiped out today.
Still suffered a loss in size.
It would be nice if it could be bigger.
After watching the dead python, Qin An went back to watch over the fire.Some small mutated animals were discovered and removed by Qin An before they approached. Some large mutated animals, perhaps because they were afraid of the smell of the giant python here, did not get close.
It was almost early morning before Qiu Ling woke up.
Walking to the side of the fire, Qin An was in a daze: "What are you thinking about?"
"I was wondering if there were no them, if I wasn't in the snake's belly, how would we deal with that python?"
"I can't deal with it." Qiu Ling said directly, "You were in a coma at the time. Even if you were awake, with your degree of mutation at that time, joining forces with He Siming would at most be a delay. With the physical strength of a giant python, it is enough to delay you to death. "
"What is the degree of mutation at that time?" Qin An heard her subtext.
"Give me your hand." Qiu Ling stretched out her hand.
Qin An stretched out his hand, and Qiu Ling felt for his pulse and said, "I found out when you got out of your stomach. At that time, your whole body was mutated. Although it didn't take long, it is important to increase your explosive power several times in a short period of time." No problem. Now if you cooperate with He Siming, he will distract the python's attention, and it will not be too difficult for you to take the opportunity to insert your arm into its seven inches."
Qin An nodded, what Qiu Ling said made sense.
Afterwards, Qiu Ling said again: "But this is just talking on paper. And even if you and He Siming are teaming up to deal with this giant python now, according to their characteristics of being crazy about perfect genes, in the eyes of giant pythons, how can you compare?" Siming is delicious, so it may not be feasible for He Siming to attract pythons. And if you are used as bait, He Siming's current degree of mutation is not enough to kill pythons."
"You understand this very well?" Qin An asked.
"You haven't played games?" Qiu Ling asked back.
There are many strategy games like this, Qin An shook his head.
Qiu Ling smiled and said, "I remembered, you are a traveler, and you are playing for real."
This sounded awkward, Qiu Ling laughed to herself, picked up a piece of roasted meat and warmed it up on the fire.
After a while, Bao Xinyu also woke up.
Seeing that Qin An woke up, he rushed over: "Brother Qin, have you recovered?"
Qin An nodded, patted Bao Xinyu on the shoulder and pulled him to sit down: "You're freaking out!"
"It didn't scare me to death." Bao Xinyu wanted to cry without tears, "It's okay to say that in the underground, when you were eaten by that snake, Brother He went crazy!"
In Qin An's impression, He Siming rarely lost his composure.Even when we first met, He Siming was full of bookishness.It took a long time to get to know him better, and he realized that He Siming was just a little lonely.
Later, when they got acquainted, in Qin An's eyes, He Siming became more and more flesh and blood. Aside from his obsession with studying and unable to extricate himself, he is actually an ordinary person.
"Crazy?" Qin An looked back at He Siming who was resting, and remembered He Siming's behavior when he was almost killed by a mutant dog.
"You should have seen the subsidence on the ground. It was He Siming's handwriting." Qiu Ling said, "He was crazy at the time and wanted to bury the giant python. He didn't mutate very much, and the connection he established with the jade card was not that bad." If it’s not high, you have to force yourself to be like this.”
"A boa constrictor is not easy to suffocate even if it is buried, right?" Snakes are generally good at holding their breath, and there is a small amount of air in the soil.It is no exaggeration to say that it may not be able to kill the boa constrictor even if it is buried for a year or two.
"He couldn't think of a second solution." Qiu Ling understood He Siming's thoughts at the time, "You were eaten at the time, and his mutated ability couldn't save you at all, so he could only rely on the newly obtained jade token. "
Thinking about He Siming at that time, Bao Xinyu shuddered and said, "And didn't you say that you will die if you force yourself to use the jade token too much? At that time, Brother He really wanted to kill the python! Fortunately, the army came, and you Come out too, or else our circle will be finished."
In fact, Bao Xinyu didn't mean to blame He Siming.After all, He Siming was extremely exhausted at the time, and the continuous high-intensity use of mutations and jade cards had brought him to the brink of collapse. Coupled with the stimulation of Qin An being swallowed, it was normal for him to lose his mind.
Although Bao Xinyu didn't know how deep the relationship between the two was, but seeing He Siming's meticulous attitude towards Qin An on weekdays, it wouldn't be too surprising that He Siming would die for Qin An.
Qin An looked at He Siming's sleeping appearance, and felt a little subtle in his heart.
Qin An couldn't tell what that feeling was.Just looking back and thinking about it, everything that He Siming has done to him along the way is worthwhile in this life if there is such a person who cares about him.
When he insisted on surviving alone, all he wanted was to see He Siming again, but now He Siming is desperately fighting for Qin An.
Two people who were supposed to be in two worlds, now the bond is getting deeper with the end of the world.
This feeling is actually quite good.
Qin An looked at Tiangui and asked them, "Do you know these people?"
Qiu Ling said: "Anyway, they are not in the big army."
Qiu Ling has been in a coma and knows very little.Bao Xinyu woke up a few times and heard some fragments of words.
"He seems to be related to Brother He." Bao Xinyu slept far away, and only listened to it sporadically when he woke up.When people hear something, they always like to change it a little bit in the language they understand to enhance their memory, but they soon forget the process of processing it, so they firmly believe that what they remember is the truth.
"relative?"
"That's right. I heard from the captain that Brother He wants to call his girl what kind of mother?"
"Mother? Auntie?" In the north, the aunt is the wife of the elder brother of the parents. In the south, it is generally called aunt or auntie.
"Then I didn't hear clearly. He also said that he would take us to the Northeast instead of Beijing." Bao Xinyu said.
"Is this going to meet relatives?" From Bao Xinyu's description, that's all.
Bao Xinyu said: "Then I don't know. But since they are relatives, it's normal to go and have a look first. In this world, it's good to have relatives to walk around."
Bao Xinyu was young, and he was in the rebellious period before the end of the world, so his parents rarely took him when they went out to visit.So after the end of the world, Bao Xinyu wanted to find his relatives, but he didn't know where to look for them.
Qin An tried hard to think, he knew very little about He Siming's family.All I know is that his family's conditions should be good, and He Siming usually dresses well.However, He Siming is good at English and has a certain level of Japanese. Sometimes he does some part-time jobs on the Internet to make money.
From the previous few words, He Siming made a lot of money online.But no matter what, it is certain that He Siming has a weak relationship with his family. He has not heard him mention his family for so many years, and he has not visited relatives.
This is very similar to Qin An.Both of Qin An's parents died, leaving behind three houses.At that time, many relatives came to the door, and some bitter masters wanted to take advantage of it. At that time, Qin An had not yet passed the rebellious stage, and he really offended some people by speaking indifferently.
Afterwards, it was passed on from ten to ten, and Qin An's "notoriety" spread. It was said that his six relatives did not recognize him. After a long time, no one got close to him.
Fortunately, Qin An is free by nature, relying on three flats in Beijing, he does not work and travels around all year round.The prodigal son can't be called, but he is definitely a worthless child in his mouth.
Qin An never cared about that, it was left to him by his parents, and he didn't steal it.
"Wait until they get up tomorrow and ask them carefully." Qiu Ling obviously didn't believe Bao Xinyu's statement.She knew that the sky ghost's identity was not simple, otherwise she and her brother would not have known about it.As long as He Siming has some unusual background, he cannot be sent to Tibet to do this dangerous task.
There should be other reasons for this.
The three of them chatted without saying a word, and it was three o'clock in the morning.
Silver Fox and White Fish woke up and told them to go to rest for a while and hurry on their way at dawn.
Qin An turned back and got into the bed. He Siming, who was in the bed, smelled the strange smell from Qin An's body, and was awakened by the smoke, and opened his eyes slightly with his eyes narrowed.
Qin An said: "Go to sleep for a while." He Siming was completely relieved when he heard Qin An's voice, and he closed his eyes and fell asleep again, regardless of the smell.
When the white belly rose from the sky, the silver fox woke everyone up.Everyone got busy together, cooked the soup, and divided the rest of the rabbit meat.After a delicious meal, I packed my bags and started on my way.
The group of people had rested and had enough food, and they walked steadily.
The front and rear are fully armed with special forces, because they are traveling through the forest, sometimes they can pick some wild vegetables with better taste and even harvest some edible roots and fruits on the road.
The trees grow wildly, and it feels like entering a virgin forest when you walk in. With the overgrown weeds, it is more difficult to walk.
There are not many compressed biscuits, and the long-term eating of meat makes me feel tired.There was still a small bag of rice in the corner of Qin An's backpack, and he suggested that it could be cooked into porridge with some meat and vegetables at noon.
Anyway, it's a staple food.
Before Qin An left, he cut off a piece of the giant python's flesh.The giant python ate him, and he always had to eat a few more mouthfuls of the giant python's meat to vent his anger.
The problem with food is not that big, no matter how bad it is, they can still hunt mutated animals to eat.But right now the water source is in a bit of a hurry.
Qin An drank all the water in He Siming's kettle in one go, and there was still less than half of the water in Qin An's kettle.Bao Xinyu is young, and he is not very good at saving water, so he just moistens his lips pitifully.
There is not much water in the five special forces water bottles.Made hot soup last night and this morning and the water is running out.
Heavenly Ghost pointed in one direction and said, "There is a stream over there. Last time we replenished the water source there. It takes about two hours to walk this way. Can you hold on?"
The physical strength of ordinary people still cannot be compared with special forces.
"It's okay. When I was in the big army before, didn't I persist in walking for more than ten hours a day?"
"The mountain is different from the flat land. The terrain here is uneven, and walking on the mountain road will consume several times the physical strength." Qiu Ling explained.
"That's okay! Shall we eat the snake meat brought by Brother Qin at noon? I've heard that snake meat is delicious, so I wanted to eat it yesterday."
"Okay, let's roast snake meat for lunch."
The white fish in front looked back at Tian Gui after hearing this, and smiled helplessly.As a group of them came all the way, their diets became irregular.Eating is basically eating when you feel hungry to replenish your energy.
But it's good to eat regularly, I don't know how long I will last like this.
"You guys came here pretty fast, did you come by plane?" He Siming asked Tiangui.
"How dare you take that one? When we received the mission, we were actually in Xi'an. When we got the mission, we changed three cars and all were scrapped by mutated animals. Seeing that we were getting closer, we simply walked over here. Already." The ghost said.
He Siming thought about the conversation he had with the officer, and said, "I remember that Beijing sent two teams of special forces."
"It should mean that the other team came from Beijing." Tian Gui thought for a while, "If you are in the special warfare brigade with me, it will be calculated according to the task assignment, and it might be Bawanghua who is sent here."
"What?" Dichlorvos, who was walking behind, raised his voice an octave higher, "Bawanghua? No way!"
"Is this the name of their special forces team? It sounds like a female soldier." Qin An had heard before that there was a women's special forces team in the special forces.In the past two years, several themes about female special soldiers came out, which once aroused the enthusiasm of girls to become soldiers.
"What female soldiers!" Didivous shuddered and said, "I didn't realize what kind of female soldiers they were, they were a brood of tigresses!"
Although the other three did not speak, they nodded secretly.
At any rate, Tian Gui still looked like a captain, and said: "Restrain yourself! What a tigress! That's a comrade-in-arms of our special warfare brigade!"
Die Di shrank his neck and didn't say any more, secretly praying in his heart not to be these living ancestors.
He Siming found it interesting to see their reactions, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
"Can't you see? I've suffered a lot." Tiangui said, "Two years ago, I had a joint training with the ** special warfare brigade of the ** military region, simulating actual combat. A total of twelve special warfare teams competed with each other. Our special warfare team finally At the critical moment, I almost lost to those overlord flowers."
Hei Niu laughed a little honestly, and said: "At that time, the other special forces didn't take them seriously, and suffered from underestimating the enemy. If the boss hadn't kept his mind at that time, he would have really lost."
Bai Yujie said shortly: "I remember that Dichlorvos was directly hung up, and his pants fell off."
Dichlorvos looked ashamed, turned around and said, "Sorry to say that to me! Who is so embarrassed!"
"Okay! What's the fuss at this time!" Tiangui suppressed their mutual denunciation, and their entire team didn't need to face any further.
"Really so powerful?"
"At present, there are only four special operations teams composed of all women in the country, and our special operations brigade only has one. Back then, Bawanghua ranked second in the training camp and became famous in the first battle. Later, many special operations teams admired them to simulate actual combat. , So far, nine victories and one defeat." Actually, Tian Gui is also quite interested in them, and the more difficult things he is, the more he likes them.
"Then I really want to see it." What kind of appearance can make these strong men tremble.
But the Bawanghua special team is second, so the first is obviously Tiangui's current special team.
Although it is only a confrontation exercise between two special warfare brigades, their strength can be seen.
"If they were really sent here to meet you, then it will be a matter of time before we see them." Tian Gui hadn't seen them for a long time.The special forces themselves are busy. In addition to missions, sometimes they help train rookies, and there are very few opportunities for the various units to meet.
Qin An suddenly remembered, and asked He Siming, "I heard from Xinyu that you and Tiangui are relatives?"
"What?" He Siming was taken aback for a moment, and the ghost beside him was also a little confused.
"What do you call his girl mother?"
Looking at their reactions, Bao Xinyu guessed that he had heard wrongly, so he smiled at them awkwardly.
He Siming stretched out his hand and pushed Bao Xinyu's head: "You're not too old to tell lies, right?"
Heavenly Ghost said: "We have nothing to do with each other, but my old aunt has a special status. When I was young, I almost got together with his teacher, so I joked that He Siming almost called me an old lady. This kid got it wrong."
"I'm eighteen!" Bao Xinyu protested.
"Take out your ID card and let me have a look." Dichlorvos interrupted.
"I'm eighteen! I'm 61 years old." Bao Xinyu said with a blushing face.
"Isn't that seventeen?" This year was '78, and '61 was 17 years ago.
"Who is still one year old, isn't it all counted according to the false age?" Bao Xinyu quibbled.
"Others don't care, soldiers here must say one year old." Dichlorvos pushed Bao Xinyu's head, "Young melon egg."
"You're a cucumber!" Bao Xinyu wanted to confront him, but was pulled back by Ke Chenguang.
day by day
"You're a cucumber!" Bao Xinyu wanted to confront him, but was pulled back by Ke Chenguang.
He said bluntly, "You can't beat him again."
Of course Bao Xinyu knew that, being stopped by Ke Chenguang, he bared his teeth at Dichlorvos.
Dichlorvos's character is indeed a bit cheerful, and he can get along with children.
The misunderstanding was resolved, and Qin An was a little curious about what kind of person the old lady Tiangui was talking about was.
After walking for another two hours, Qin An's mutated ears could hear the sound of running water.
"I heard the sound of water!" At this time, the group was a little thirsty, but they couldn't bear to drink the remaining water.
He Siming confirmed Qin An's statement: "I heard it too! It's the sound of water! It should be the stream you met before."
Knowing that their hearing is better after mutating, Tian Gui nodded and reminded everyone: "There are many mutated animals drinking water near the stream, everyone should pay attention to the surrounding situation at all times. After fetching water as soon as possible, leave as soon as possible, and find a place to rest after walking far away."
It is common sense that the vicinity of wild water sources is the most dangerous, but even if it is dangerous, it is worth drinking a sip of water.
The group of people accelerated their pace and soon heard the sound of water.
Bao Xinyu licked his dry lips, and he almost walked to the front of the line: "I'm thirsty!"
"Don't drink the water after fetching it for a while!" Qin An reminded, "Most of the water in the wild is not clean, you have to boil it before drinking it!"
Qin An has learned a lesson about this.In the early years, when I went camping with my travel friends, I was thirsty on the road and drank the water from the stream. As a result, I couldn’t bear the diarrhea that day and went down the mountain overnight to the hospital.
At that time, there were no mutated animals, and they could go to the hospital at any time if something happened. Now there is no place to treat diarrhea and death.
Bao Xinyu knew that what Qin An said was good, so he licked his lips again, feeling a little disappointed.But thinking that I won't have to worry about running out of water for a while, I feel better.
There was still some boiled water in Qiu Ling's kettle, and she asked Bao Xinyu for a kettle, and poured it all out to him: "Drink it. There will be a water source soon, and I will fill it with new ones."
Bao Xinyu took the kettle, smiled at Qiuling, poured the water for himself, and quenched his thirst with a sip.
Soon at the water source, four special forces stood outside to pay attention to the surrounding situation, and the others filled their water bottles as soon as possible.Then replace the positions of the four and fill the kettles alternately.
"There are fish!" Bao Xinyu pointed downstream with surprise.
A fish more than one meter long swims up from the bottom of the shallow stream with difficulty.Tian Gui also saw it, and seeing Bao Xinyu's joyful face, he took out his dagger and threw it hard, and directly fixed the fish's head.
A one-meter-long fish is enough for eleven people to eat.
Hei Niu, who happened to be next to him, went to pick up the fish, and the fish struggled to move twice, getting some water on Hei Niu's clothes.
Tiangui pulled up two tougher weeds by the stream, waited for the black bull to come over, retracted the dagger and head, inserted the grass through the fish's gills, took it out from the fish's mouth, and then tied a knot.Silver Fox walked in the middle of the team, and hung directly on Silver Fox's wooden warehouse.
The silver fox was carrying a light sniper, and it was just enough to be used as a stick when it resisted on the shoulder, hanging on to the fish and walking away.
"We've found our lunch. Come on, and don't get caught by other animals."
Fish meat is lighter than those rabbit meat, and it is relatively better absorbed.
Bao Xinyu's eyes were full of the sky ghost throwing the knife just now, and his eyes were a little different when he looked at the sky ghost.
Ke Chenguang looked at Bao Xinyu with sparkles in his eyes, feeling a little helpless.
But looking at them in military uniforms, they are still a little envious.
Leaving the stream, the group of people walked faster for nearly half an hour before slowing down, walking through the weeds, and began to look for a place suitable for noon rest.
Qin An walked to He Siming's side in two steps, and asked, "Are we really not going to Beijing?"
"Going now may not be a good thing. Why, homesick?" Although Qin An is a wild person, he is also a person with roots, and He Siming knows this well.
"It's okay. I'm just worried that so many people will rush to Beijing by then, and when those people are resettled, will my three houses be directly expropriated?"
Three suites, two for long-term rent and one for short-term rent.If someone rents it, it will be rented out, and if no one rents it, Qin An will keep it by himself.In fact, most of his luggage is still stored in the house rented to He Siming.
Sometimes when he comes home tired from playing, Qin An will go to He Siming's house to live for two days if the lease term of the short-term rented house has not yet expired.It was very cheap for Qin An to charge He Siming's rent, and He Siming couldn't wish for them to stay for a few days.
"Why would I leave one for you? Besides, you've mutated now, so you're afraid you won't have a place to live in Beijing?" Even with Ke Chenguang included, there are now three mutated talents in the country.Even if mutated people become cabbages everywhere in the future, people with a high degree of mutation like Qin An are still rare.
At least He Siming can feel now that Qin An's evolution has surpassed him by a lot.
"That's right." In fact, Qin An doesn't even know what his own strength is now.After getting out of the giant python's belly, Qin An felt that his own strength had been raised to a higher level.Naihe mixed with five special forces, small mutated animals were chopped off by a knife when they approached, and a bullet from a large animal was perfectly solved.These six ordinary people only need to go on their way, and don't have to worry about the rest.
After walking for more than an hour, the sun began to tilt to the west, and we found a good place for rest.
Still covered with rocks, a lot of weeds.Bai Yu and Hei Niu picked up some dry firewood and came back, Tian Gui crushed the dried leaves to make tinder, and lit the fire with flint.
Put a larger lunch box on it, fill it with water and bring to a boil.
There is no large container, so I can only cook one by one. In order to avoid wasting time, I only boil three pots of water, and save the rest for the night, and clean up the fish at the same time.
Qin An made an experiment, stuffing the wild vegetables, roots and a little fruit picked along the way into the fish belly, then rubbing salt on the fish and roasting it on the fire.The one-meter-long fish is not easy to cook, so it is pierced with a wooden stick, and two people carry it from time to time. It takes nearly an hour to confirm that it is completely cooked.
At this time, all three pots of water were boiled.There are only two girls, so they drink one jug of water and the other two are for the other men.The fish was cooked later than expected, so the free time was enough to boil a pot of water.
Qin An couldn't wait to cut off a piece of meat from the belly of the fish, and brought out some "stuffing" from the belly of the fish.
Qin An took a bite of the fish himself first, the salty taste went in, and there was no change with a little fragrance, and the wild fish tasted very fresh and delicious.Take another bite of the rhizome, it is sweet and soft and absorbs some fish fat, which is called a fragrance.
"Delicious!" Qin An nodded, asking He Siming to taste it too.
When He Siming also confirmed that it was delicious, there were two people who tested the poison and confirmed that it was delicious, and other people gathered around.
Give the two people who grilled the fish the most, and Dichlorvos and Silver Fox eat last. Check the surroundings first.
Qin An's piece of snake meat is too late to roast, it can be used as dinner.The weather is slightly cooler now, and the meat is not easy to spoil.
"How much salt do we have?" While eating, Ke Chenguang remembered that Qin An seemed to be the only one with salt.
"I still have a small bag here." Qin An said.
Heavenly Ghost said: "We still have some, which should be enough in the short term. But we may have to live like this for a long time in the future, and the seasoning still needs to be added."
"It would be great if this fish had some cumin and pepper." Bao Xinyu took a bite of the meat and said.
"You're fine if you're not hungry enough." Qiu Ling thought about it: "We still have to take the highway when we get out of the mountains. It's best if we can get a car, but if it's not good enough, we can get something from those abandoned cars. The materials must have been collected almost now, and if the materials are collected in unfamiliar places, there may be unnecessary troubles."
"In other words, we can also see if there are any people in the city who are willing to exchange materials for food. For us, the meat of mutated animals is easy to obtain, but for those who are timid and dare not kill animals, this It shouldn't be that easy to obtain." He Siming said.
Tiangui nodded and said: "It can be considered. But in terms of cars, we people need at least two cars. Buses and bread are more dangerous, and off-road vehicles are the best choice. But encountering mutant animals while driving will be very tricky. There is a danger of the vehicle overturning before getting off in time."
"Even having a few motorcycles or even bicycles is better than walking on two legs." Qin An said.
"That's true. We need mobility aids."
"Transportation?" Bao Xinyu looked at Xiao Sun, "Sister Sun, don't you have a cat?"
"Let's go with the big troops." Xiao Sun said.Xiao Sun is usually reticent, and usually she won't speak at all if it doesn't involve her.
Only then did Qin An remember: "I have forgotten that Xiao Sun's ability is to communicate with animals, or to tame animals. As long as they are mutated animals, and they have not lost their minds, they can be used for themselves. If you find two running A mutant animal that looks more stable is much safer than a car."
"Running more stable?" Dichlorvos said, "I rode a pig when I was young, and it was quite stable."
Qin An recalled the day when the pigs were fighting in the field, and shook his head: "If the pigs are irritated and can't stop them with all their might, I guess they will be able to fight people when they meet a mutant animal. I prefer dogs, especially those with a gentler and quieter personality. They ride on and fall off. The chances are slim.”
"Speaking so much," Qiu Ling said, "First of all, we need animals that can be controlled. Animals that are mutated and still rational are rare. Where can we find them?"
Qin An took out his mobile phone and wanted to look at the map, but the mobile phone was turned off and couldn't be turned on at all. He took out the power bank to charge the phone, but it still couldn't be turned on.Qin An was eaten by a giant python before. It is estimated that the mobile phone was soaked in the liquid in the python's body and turned into bricks.
The only entertainment tool is gone, not even a map.
Qin An began to hesitate whether to throw it away.
Tian Gui opened the small bag, rummaged through a few sheets of paper, and pulled out a map of the local county.
After searching on the map for a while, he pointed to a location and said, "There is a zoo here, maybe you can come here to have a look."
Qin An thought of the mutated elephant, frowned and said: "In a zoo, the number of mutated animals will be quite large. Not to mention whether there will be any sane mutated animals, even if there are, ten crazy monsters will have a huge impact on one sane monster." mutant animals, there is no chance of winning.”
"I don't think so." Tiangui said, "The food in the zoo is limited. After they went crazy at first, they first ate people and then devoured each other. Those irrational mutant animals will leave for food when there is no food around. But those who are still sensible will wait around here for familiar people to feed them or raise them. Even after the mutation, animals that are familiar with humans still prefer to live in the environment where they grew up."
If it mutated at the beginning, the zoo would definitely be hell without any suspense.But after such a long time, they ate everything in the zoo. I don't believe they won't go out for food.
At that time, even if they encounter mutant animals, there will not be many.They still have enough ammunition and ammunition, which is enough for them.
"The core of whether this idea is feasible is, Xiao Sun, are you absolutely sure?"
Xiao Sun nodded: "As long as it is not an animal with too high IQ, I am sure to tame it."
"Is this related to IQ?" Qin An asked.
"Well, the higher the IQ, the more benefits will be maximized, such as trading or negotiating conditions, such as primates. Animals with lower IQs will not, which is true for most animals." Xiao Sun said, "But even if it is Primates, without the sound IQ of humans, I can gain trust and goodwill."
Xiao Sun's mutation itself has no combat effectiveness, but the added value it brings may exceed everyone sitting here.If conditions permit, Xiao Sun alone can command an entire army of mutated animals, what will it be like?No one dared to think.
Tiangui looked at this little grandson who didn't talk much a little bit more.I didn't expect this honest and honest little girl to have such great abilities.
Tiangui's eyes turned to Qiuling again: "What about your supernatural power?"
"Chicken ribs."
"What?" Sky Ghost had never heard of such a supernatural ability.
"Language talent." Qiu Ling said with a blank expression, "I can learn a language in a very short period of time. So far, I can basically know all the languages in the world that are understood by more than a million people. Domestic dialects He is also basically proficient. But in the current world, it takes a lot of effort to go out two steps, don’t you think it’s tasteless?”
If it were placed in peacetime, Qiu Ling's ability would definitely be cheating.But in this world, Qiu Ling's ability can only be described as tasteless.
A little surprise appeared on Tian Gui's face, and he said again: "This talent is very good for hiding one's identity, how can it be said to be tasteless?"
Qin An and the others nodded silently.The group of them suffered from Qiu Ling's talent.
"You can say what you want." In fact, if Qiu Ling had a choice, she would definitely not want this harmless talent.
"You don't need to belittle yourself so much. This kind of innate ability is a lot ahead of others."
Qiu Ling opened her eyes slightly: "How do you know?"
"Qi Xi told me."
"Where is he now?" Qiu Ling asked.
"How could I know him. In this world, where do you think he can go?" Tian Gui laughed.
Qiu Ling's eyes dimmed a bit, she bit her lips and did not speak.
Bao Xinyu came over and asked, "Your brother seems to be quite powerful?"
"That goes without saying." Qiu Ling gave Bao Xinyu a blank look.
"Then how many children in your family?"
"My parents died when I was young, and my aunt raised me. In theory, he is my cousin. My aunt has seven children, and he is the youngest."
Bao Xinyu opened his mouth, and finally sighed: "Hero mother!"
Since the ten-year disaster, the population has shrunk significantly, and the country has begun to encourage births, and even a certain amount of subsidies will be provided for multiple births, but there are very few such consecutive births.
"There is no way." Qiu Ling opened her mouth to say something, but she felt that it was inappropriate to say it, so she simply swallowed it back.
Tiangui looked at Qiuling and stopped talking.He knew a little bit about this mysterious family.Although this family is mysterious, it has never been a bad person.In other words, their shoulders bear more than any other family.
He Siming vaguely seemed to hear something, but he couldn't be sure, so he pulled Qin An: "Listen carefully."
Qin An focused on his ears, narrowed his eyes and listened: "This voice...is a flock of birds!"
At the beginning of the end of the world, Qin An and the others suffered countless losses from the bastards.Now meet again!
Tian Gui's face became serious, and he asked, "Which direction?"
"Over there, there is a small bird chirping, it should be a small bird!"
It’s okay if it’s a large bird, because large birds rarely drill into the haystack, but small birds don’t have this scruple, and even because of the flocks, the mutated birds want to eat people, and they can take advantage of their numbers to no avail!
The ghost's expression also changed.
"Everyone! Try to hide as much as possible! Don't make a sound and hide in the bushes! Don't make a sound!" Tian Gui glanced at the sky and couldn't see the trace of the bird for the time being, but since the sound was getting closer and closer, it was very likely. It might be coming this way.
A group of people searched for cover as soon as possible, and the special forces and Ke Chenguang moved most neatly.Bao Xinyu was still trying to get into the grass, but Ke Chenguang pulled him into the bushes and held him down.
"Hei Niu! Get ready for smoke and bombs!" Tian Gui said.
"Yes!" Hei Niu
