1080 Science Fiction: Five Years of the Last Days (35)

The family of three opened their eyes vigilantly, and then, Gu Zheng poked his head under the branch with a prostrate hook.

Looking down from above, the situation below was very obvious under the lighting of piles of bonfires, and all kinds of insects, reptiles and amphibians of any kind, as if they had acquired the characteristics of moths, under the inspiration of light and heat, they came out one after another from various positions, and rushed in the direction of the campfire.

They were so numerous that they were like the honey of ants, filling up all the open space around the campfire where they could put their feet down.

Among them, those reptiles with a little large body are not the most terrifying existences.

Because these creepers may just come to bake the fire, to rub some heat in the cold night, to avoid the low temperature of the night to freeze themselves into a popsicle, but when they arrive at the open space that can be warmed by the bonfire, they put their bodies on a plate, squint their eyes steadily, and once again fall into a state of light sleep and rest.

The most terrifying thing is the strange insects that seem to have lost their lives when they see fire.

They were in groups, they were fearless, even if the flames were their next second of burial, and they rushed straight into the depths of the campfire without complaint.

'Crackle, crackle'

The smell of burnt insects wafted through the screams of the people and the burning of the bonfire.

But Gu Zheng, who was lying on the branch, knew that the biggest crisis that the people under the tree were going to face was coming soon.

"Hurry, climb the tree, hurry, hurry!!"

For such an order, the people under the tree who have not finished their meal are at a loss.

But the villagers of Nanzhuangzi, who are accustomed to following Gu Zheng's advice...... But he subconsciously obeyed Gu Zheng's command, threw the bird meat in his hand, and began to climb towards the branches.

Then ...... 'crackle'...... 'crackle'

In the next moments, those who climbed and looked back saw the horrific scene that was happening right under their feet.

As more swarms swooped down, the predators who had hidden in the darkness swooped up in this suicidal feat, swooping down on the delicacies that had been burned by the flames for a long time.

'Brush brush brush ......'

The number of insects is so large that one bonfire after another is so crumbling that it doesn't even have the space to burn on its own.

As the most slender bonfire was extinguished, it was like the beginning of a signal, and within the reach of Gu Zheng's line of sight, all the bonfires that were not maintained were close behind...... Extinguished everywhere.

As for those who are afraid that the flames will go out, and are still struggling to add firewood to the surviving settlements far away from Nanzhuangzi?

In the louder screams that followed, Gu Zheng could probably guess the fate of these people who were still hovering under the trees.

'Fluttering Ridge'

A six-winged insect seventy or eighty centimeters long swept low in the light of the fire under the tree.

The terrifying compound eyes in this dim state, still let it accurately find the target it wants to hunt, like the most dexterous bird in the direction of a fat multi-legged flesh worm, after a beautiful dive, the fat half a meter of white worm in the circle of helpless writhing in the air, but after a moment's effort, its body was gnawed off half of it.

Those who are still under the trees are naturally regarded as predators who hinder their hunting, or reptiles who go wild after the campfires are extinguished...... The goal of venting anger has been.

When they were bitten a few times by these murderous species that were once at the bottom of the food chain, they remembered the people who climbed the trees to escape, but the next second they realized that it seemed to be too late.

Because these strange creatures, with their mouthparts and fangs, carry all kinds of toxins.

Some humans who have just been bitten by a small bite, or even just let out a brief "ah" scream, then lose their reaction forever and stop breathing.

It was this sudden riot that made Gu Zheng and the villagers of Nanzhuangzi spend the first night in crying and wailing.

Even the more terrifying roars of animals from the depths of the jungle could not stop their grief.

This made the three members of the Gu family never even sleep soundly.

Because all the experience on the way to escape tells them that sometimes the fate of mixing with pig teammates is even more miserable than facing unknown and terrifying beasts.

Therefore, when the first rays of sunlight shine through the dense deep forest, the temperature rises rapidly...... And during the time period when the surrounding water vapor was emitted into a white mist, Gu Zheng's meeting with the old village chief and military representatives officially began.

They had a lot to discuss in this meeting.

First, it is natural to find a safe enough habitat to live, and this habitat also needs to meet the following conditions:

There's a wall that can keep everything from last night at bay...... Relatively safe fences, as well as large enough ...... An open flat area where it is impossible to hide any mysterious species.

Second, the habitat should be close to the water source.

Then, relying on a stable residence, while clearing the wasteland, we advanced towards the location of the Jeseong Army station.

As for the more specific details?

Is it to rescue more survivors by the way?

Needless to say?

As long as there is one person left in the army, they will not give up on the helpless people.

Therefore, it is always right for us to listen to the words of the PLA.

After a short meeting, representatives of several quarters drew up a list of investigators who would go in several directions.

Among them, Gu Zheng is the captain of the team responsible for investigating the north road.

When she learned of this decision, Gu Lao Niang was unwilling from the bottom of her heart.

If you want her son to go out and die, then okay, you have to take her with you, they and their mothers...... If you die, you will die in one place.

For this kind of unreasonable mother, the old village chief is quite a headache.

Gu Lao Niang's love is like a double-edged sword, which has saved many people's lives when it is in danger, but it has become the biggest stumbling block when it should be dedicated to the collective.

But they forgot that the person who could make Gu Lao Niang obedient was also the same person.

I saw Gu Zheng come to the old lady's side, and after whispering a few words, the excited old lady immediately showed the most kind smile that all mothers in the world would show, patted Gu Zheng's shoulder as if sending her son to work, and then slapped her chest again.

One rivet at a time, he promised: "Son, don't worry! Don't you just want to eat the bar-head fire with flour skin in the primeval forest? When you come back, my mother will definitely be able to clean it up for you!"

"What can't I do Qin Xiulan well? As long as it's food, I can find a way to make it for you!"

Oh, this is amazing, it's an impossible task.

Gu Zheng still has the ability, and he appeased his wife with a word.

As for making a bar head?

No one took Gu Lao Niang's words seriously.

How can you still make this kind of food in this situation? Eat some compressed biscuits with barbecue dry food.

The villagers who thought that Gu Zheng was quite good at coaxing people smiled a little kindly...... As the silent and capable leader of the wasteland reclamation team gathered together in the direction they were going to travel, under the leadership of Gu Zheng, a team of ten people followed behind him to pull through the grass and disappear into the vast dense forest.

What they didn't know was that Gu Lao Niang, who was pulling a bag of flour in her luggage...... But he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and scooped a spoonful of flour from his noodle pocket with a spoon as if he was ruthless.

She can't do anything alive as an old thing, she can only drag down her capable son.

Even if she is afraid that her son will never return, she must pack up this meal and let his son know that it is in the rear...... There will always be a mother who can still move...... Here we look forward to his return.

Regarding Comrade Qin Xiulan's psychological activities, Gu Zheng, who had been out for a long time, of course had no way of knowing, he just sighed at the enormity of this last world and the bumpy road of their unknown exploration.

Because it took a lot of effort for them to stumble out of this short distance.

Coupled with the change in the composition of metal molecules, their team had no sharp tools to open the way, except for crude weapons made of wood.

If only there was an illustrated book of the world's flora and fauna.

But if he sees any animals and plants that he doesn't know, he can also find specific information from above, and then with the help of explanations, he can find things that are useful to the people who live there.

After all, some of the injured villagers and soldiers in the temporary camp are still waiting to find the relevant medical structure to provide effective treatment.

Even if he Gu Zheng can find some effective herbs, he can use his medical knowledge to diagnose and treat these wounded.

In this world, if he can't find alternative herbs, wait until the finished drugs he once purchased are used up...... The rest can only resist hard.

And human beings will once again return to primitive society...... The life expectancy is extremely short, and the mortality rate is extremely high.

Gu Zheng, who sighed again, picked aside a three-meter-long centipede.

In the frightened and helpless eyes of the team members behind him, he smashed the centipede's head with a few sticks, and then cruelly dismembered it into several pieces as if nothing happened, and threw it in the large rattan basket he was carrying behind his back.

In order not to be so frightened, Gu Zheng also kindly explained: "Centipede, with great medicinal value, can be used for children's epilepsy, mouth cuffing, baldness, scrofula, stool poison, hemorrhoids and other diseases. ”

"You all have wide eyes on the road, whether you are a plant or an animal, and you will talk about what you have not seen or what you know. ”

"Can we find a place to live? I don't know, but we can't just go out for nothing, can we? ”
