Chapter 87: The Line Between Life and Death
Andu was not joking, he turned around and jumped into the lake again, diving. Behind him, eight people jumped into the water one after another, following behind Andu.
Under the water, the inky blue particles resemble a huge net, and the people floating in it quietly close their eyes, as if they are asleep.
They are all alive, human beings sheltered by the void and unconscious.
In one night, they went back and forth five times, changed people three times, and finally fished out all the humans at the bottom of the lake at dawn.
There were a total of one hundred and forty-seven human beings, and those who did not participate in the movement in the lake at night consciously carried the stones, cleared a shady place, and placed them there.
But back on the ground, for these humans, does not mean a new life. On the contrary, it is likely to mean death, because they are all ordinary human beings.
The sun slowly rose, and everyone stood silent, waiting for them to wake up from the protection.
Fang Yue looked at it for a while, and then said to the others, "You don't have to eat today?" Go and go, what to do, if you have nothing to do, just look for me, can you find any surviving plants. ”
After sending everyone else away, Fang Yue began to check their bodies one by one. After being exposed to the air, their vital signs all began to decline to varying degrees, and soon, they were about to wake up.
The first to wake up was a chubby man, who opened his eyes and looked blankly at the meteorite block above his head, and then sat up in a panic as if he remembered something.
Then he was caught off guard and saw Fang Yue's electrons staring at him, and with a scream of "whoosh", he crawled and shrank onto the meteorite wall.
It's just that with this violent movement, the face of the man who was just leaning against the stone wall obviously changed greatly, and I saw him covering his chest with one hand, opening his mouth, and his face turned red instantly, as if someone had choked his neck.
"Don't be nervous, relax, get used to the feeling." Fang Yue tilted his head and said to him. The special substances in the air enter their bodies with the breath, stimulating the changes of organs and cells, and the process is probably similar to a thousand cuts, the more they are repulsed, the faster they die.
"Hear no, relax!" Fang Yue walked over and broke his hand around his neck and told him to lie down.
"Breathe slowly, don't be nervous."
"Who are you? He...... What's wrong with us? Another man's voice came from behind him, Fang Yue's head turned three hundred and sixty degrees, and saw a man slowly sitting up against the wall, looking towards them.
When the fat man woke up, he actually woke up, but he didn't open his eyes immediately because he was alert by nature, and what happened next shocked him.
Because he sensed that something was wrong with him, he glanced around at the people who had not yet woken up who had been placed side by side beside him, and had an ominous thought in his heart - they were sick, so they were all placed here.
Fang Yue raised his hand and knocked the frightened man under him unconscious, he turned his body around and tilted his head to stare at the man in front of him.
"We're not bad guys, I'm an intelligent doctor, you were saved by humans last night, they went out looking for food, and I'm the only one here." Fang Yue said.
"What infectious disease do we have?" His face was a little pale, but he still looked relatively calm.
“…… It's not a serious illness, keep a balanced mind, accept that feeling, try to move around as little as possible, and it will get better soon. Fang Yue said half-truthfully.
"Thank you......" The man listened, was silent for a while, and thanked Fang Yue. He glanced at the man who was lying on the ground and was knocked unconscious by Fang Yue, and then closed his eyes and leaned against the meteorite block, probably closing his eyes to recuperate.
Soon, the others also woke up one after another. As soon as there were too many people, Fang Yue felt that his temper was about to be uncontrollable.
Most of the people panicked at first, and most of them were able to calm down after Fang Yue explained, but there were still some like the first fat man, who were so excited that they couldn't calm down, and they were fainted by Fang Yue's palm.
The Hardeners hidden in the meteorite swarm next to them watched silently, some of them going to find food, and some of them staying to keep the group safe.
They all knew in their hearts that only a few of these people could stay. Or, none of them can be left.
The long, hot days passed, and in the evening, they finally met the other people in the mouth of the intelligent doctor. An Du and Ling Fei returned with the food they had hunted.
Because human beings who have been strengthened by animal genes are always a little different from ordinary people in terms of height, body shape and voice, in order not to cause some kind of misunderstanding, they finally chose not to appear in front of them, but let An Du and Ling Fei, two harmless-looking little guys, go over.
Although Andu has grown a lot taller, it is still very far away compared to other beast genetically strengthened people.
"Awake?" An Du asked Fang Yue, who was standing aside.
"Hmm." Fang Yue only responded briefly, then turned around and went out. It seems that he has something to say, and it is inconvenient to say it in front of this group of people.
"Okay, hello everyone, the person and I just now are the ones who saved you, the conditions are poor, and the food is very limited, don't move, I'll divide the food." An Du and Fang Yue went out, so they couldn't hang them.
Ling Fei frowned, although his communication skills were not necessarily much better, but they were definitely better than Andu.
What they hunted today was an elk-like animal, of course, several times larger than the previous one. The mutated animal is not tame at all, probably because of the lack of vegetation, and they are just as fierce as they should eat meat.
It took almost a day for the group of people who decided to bring the prey back, not because the prey was difficult to hunt, but because they had been struggling with the choice for a long time.
They are a group of people who can grow freely in this environment, and what their bodies need is the flesh of an interstellar alien beast with energy, or like Andu, they directly need the energy of chips.
But the bodies of ordinary humans have no way to directly convert energy, and if they eat the flesh of beasts containing energy, they will probably be like those companions who died in front of their eyes before, and there is no possibility of survival.
Then they searched all day, far away from the lake and the elk-like prey they could find with the lowest amount of energy.
Ling Fei skinned his prey, divided the meat into roughly equal sizes, and wrapped it in leaves and handed it to them.
This kind of leaf was found by Yan Feng, and he walked far away with a little yellow bird with a feather, and finally found the tree that stood alone in the middle of the world.
Because the young leaves are poisonous, the whole tree looks quite leafy.
"Why is it raw, I don't eat it!" After the food was distributed, most people watched it for a while, and they chose to swallow it with their eyes closed, and there was only one discordant sound.
As soon as his voice fell, the piece of meat fell in front of Ling Fei with a "pop", and a little dust was splashed.
Ling Fei's movements paused, and he slowly raised his head, the wide hood making his face even more blurry in the under-lit places.
A fat man gasped, he glared at Ling Fei angrily, his face flushed unspeakably.
The temporary abode of a hundred and ten people suddenly fell silent, and they consciously stayed away from the fat man, for fear of being harmed to the innocent.
It's all like this, how difficult it is to be able to pick up a life, they just need to lie quietly, and someone to provide food, even if it is raw, there is no room for complaining.
How could they not know what was going on outside, but there were always people who naively thought they deserved special treatment.
"Forget it." As soon as Ling Fei thought about it, he was grabbed by Fang Yue's arm.
"Look at his face." Fang Yue whispered.
Ling Fei glared at him fiercely, and finally went out. That person can't live tomorrow.
