Chapter 14: The Mutant Locust
Ye Ziyu is a light sleeper, and once he wakes up, it is difficult to fall asleep again, so he simply spreads his hands and lies flat on his back to look at the stars in the sky. She has loved the stars since she was a child, and she thinks that it is amazing that they can emit such beautiful light from such a distance, and although these can be explained by science, she still insists that it is a gift from God, a gift full of fantasy and romance! Even a little Dalmatian dog she raised when she was a child, she named it Xiaoxing. But then, Dad left the house, leaving her and Mom behind, and occasionally calling from an island far south to greet her.
At first, she missed him very much, but later on, time allowed her to see and understand a lot of things. When she received his call again, she only felt like she was talking to a stranger, bland and boring. Until one day, Dad said that he raised a noble lady over there, named Xiaoxing. He asked her if she remembered. Of course Ye Ziyu remembered, and remembered it very clearly, it was the little dalmatian dog brought back by her mother, Ye Ziyu smiled, and hung up after a few perfunctory words. Then she cried, whether she missed her or was she afraid that she would forget his father, whatever the most important thing to do was to come back and see, right, what was the use of talking more!
The thoughts drifted farther and farther, and just when Ye Ziyu remembered the last time she received a call, the back of her hand hurt and pulled her back.
Raising his hand in front of him, he could see clearly by the faint light of the fire that there was a small wound on the back of his hand, and a drop of blood was oozing. Was it bitten by a bug? It's not like a closer look.
She got up and took a torch and shone it on the place she had traveled before, and after carefully examining it carefully, she finally found a faint stain of blood on the leaves of a small grass, which was strangely not sharp. Ye Ziyu gently rubbed the leaf with his hand, and a sense of crisis surfaced in his heart, and he didn't feel anything when he took his hand away.
She frowned, Zhang Bo and Liang Tian looked at her strange behavior, walked to her side gently, squatted down, Zhang Bo asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Ye Ziyu shook her head, what should she say, tell them that she sensed danger from this little grass? This is ridiculous. So he only said lightly: "It's okay, but I accidentally cut my finger by the leaves of this little grass, so get up and take a look." ”
"Hehe, so that's the case, classmate Ye's skin is really delicate, and he can be scratched by a leaf." Zhang Bo quipped.
Forehead...... Can she say that there is something wrong with this grass, she always feels that it will appear to be hypocritical.
"I'll keep vigil with you and talk, I won't be able to sleep anyway."
So the three of them sat not far from the fire, but they were relatively speechless, and they couldn't help but be a little embarrassed. Or Zhang Bo broke the silence first and said, "I don't know which department classmate Ye belongs to?" ”
"Computer." Ye Ziyu replied.
"I can't see it's a technical stream."
"It's just scratching the surface, huh."
The topic couldn't go on, Zhang Bo secretly said, this classmate Ye really can't chat, this question and answer is really speechless.
At this time, Ye Ziyu didn't put his mind on chatting and passing the time at all. She felt intently the dangerous aura of every little grass around her, what was it? What are they going to tell her? With this feeling of surprise, she looked down and began to rummage.
"What are you doing?" Liang Tian, who had been silent, suddenly asked, looking at Ye Ziyu's hand touching the ground and asked.
"I'm looking for bugs." Ye Ziyu replied casually.
"Classmate Ye, ...... "Normal girls will be scared when they see insects, why did this Ye Ziyu still find insects, she is really not a normal person, look at her and those three girls have a completely different style of behavior, and she is not very close to those three people, and she also keeps a long distance from several boys, in this apocalyptic period, is it really good to be so out of place. Zhang Bo's good impression of Ye Ziyu's calmness at the beginning was reduced by one point. Girls should still be like Yang Yang and Su Qing to attract pity, thinking about it and looking at Liang Tian who helped Ye Ziyu rummage together, she suddenly felt that these two people were really compatible, one didn't sleep at night to find bugs, and the other not only didn't question but also helped find it without saying a word.
After groping for a long time, Ye Ziyu signaled to Liang Tian not to look for it anymore. Then he turned around and asked Zhang Bo: "Have you heard the sound of crickets or mosquitoes or something?" ”
Zhang Bo was stunned for a moment, shook his head puzzled, and said, "No, isn't it good to have no mosquitoes?" ”
Ye Ziyu frowned and thought.
Liang Tian also realized this unusualness, and said: "As soon as you say this, I feel that something is wrong, it stands to reason that in such a wild area, it is normal to have no animals, and it is too wrong to not even have mosquitoes." ”
Zhang Bo also reacted. He got up and looked around, and then looked at his watch, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and it would be light up in two hours, so there should be no problem.
However, this is like the saying that good things don't come and bad things come when you think about it. After a while, there was a buzzing sound from afar. It's like there's an airplane flying overhead. Ye Ziyu was startled, her hearing was much better than others, she heard this terrible sound first, and when she saw Liang Tian and Zhang Bo looking unconscious, she couldn't help but be anxious, and hurriedly said to them: "I heard a very strange sound, like the buzzing sound of countless mosquitoes gathering together, did you hear it?" ”
Liang Tian and Zhang Boju both shook their heads.
Ye Ziyu hurriedly said again: "You believe me, it's definitely not auditory hallucinations, my hearing has become quite acute for some reason." The sound is coming from all directions, and we have to get out of here. Without waiting for the two of them to react, they hurried to wake up the others.
Everyone was woken up, sat up in a daze, and looked at Ye Ziyu in confusion. Chen Jianyi reluctantly complained: "Sister, it's not dawn yet, you don't sleep yourself and don't let everyone sleep, don't take you like this, I'm still dreaming, no, I have to continue to do ......" After speaking, he fell down again.
Ye Ziyu shouted anxiously: "Don't sleep, there is danger here, I don't care if you believe it or not, in short, we have to leave now!" If you don't leave, it's too late! ”
"Ziyu, what's the danger? There is not even a figure here, and the zombies have not appeared, so what danger will there be...... Heck, it's not even three o'clock! Su Qing muttered dissatisfiedly.
Seeing that everyone ignored her, she couldn't say a convincing reason, she didn't know what to do, so many people were here, she couldn't leave them and go by herself. Suddenly, he had an idea, and said loudly: "Didn't Liang Tian say before that there is no tailwind in the mutation ability, I think I may be, I heard a large group of unknown objects flying towards us, just like the locust plague on TV." "Actually, Ye Ziyu is not a tailwind ear, but the body organs of the aliens and mutants are much better than ordinary people, and Ye Ziyu is even better than those aliens and mutants, but compared with the real tailwind ears, it is still a big difference.
When everyone heard the word locust plague, they couldn't help but feel excited, and the picture of locusts flying over without grass was broadcast on the news from time to time, making people's scalps tingle. But everyone is still skeptical, I don't know if this matter is true or if Ye Ziyu has auditory hallucinations and is alarmist.
Just when everyone reluctantly got up to pack their backpacks, Wang Congyi and Li Xing suddenly maintained their previous movements of holding things motionlessly. Then Wang Yuyi got up and looked around, although his eyes couldn't see anything special in this dark night, but the humming sound in his ears that was getting louder and louder from far and near proved that what Ye Ziyu said was not false.
"Ye Ziyu is right, I heard it too." Wang Yuyi rarely spoke so seriously, even he was cautious, and everyone felt that things might be really bad.
After Wang Jiyi finished speaking, he looked at Li Xing, and Li Xing also nodded slightly and said, "I, I heard it too." ”
"Why didn't we hear anything?" Li Chao scratched his head and asked Zhang Bo, "Did you hear that?" Zhang Bo has always given people a sense of stability and maturity, so everyone subconsciously regards him as the captain of their group.
Zhang Bo frowned, and said solemnly: "One person will have auditory hallucinations, and all three people should not all have auditory hallucinations, everyone hurry up and pack up, let's hurry up, we would rather believe it or not, since this is the end of the world, nothing is impossible." ”
As soon as Zhang Bo spoke, everyone sped up.
The car started to speed along the highway, but before it had gone far, both cars braked sharply. The people in the car all opened their mouths wide and watched in horror as a black cloud of black and oppressive things was flying towards them, and there was only a little light in the sky at this time, and it was impossible to see what it was, but everyone could hear the sound of those things.
"What, what to do?" Jian Chen asked in a trembling voice, there were really not many things that could make him feel scared, even when dealing with zombies, he didn't think it was so scary, but this flying insect that seemed to cover the earth had to make people afraid.
"Rush over!" Ye Ziyu cut the railway.
"Rush? I think we'd better go back! Chen Jianyi retorted.
"Why don't I go down and discuss with Brother Bo?" Li Chao suggested.
"There's no time, haven't you seen that they are very fast, if we go back, we will definitely be caught up by them, why don't we rush over, I don't believe there is no end!" Ye Ziyu said firmly.
Seeing Ye Ziyu's confident eyes, Chen Jianyi also had the courage to no longer object, and he yelled: "Get it all right!" I don't believe that I can be destroyed by this group of little things! ”
The car accelerated to its maximum in a short time, and soon approached the dark cloud.
Zhang Bo, who was following behind, saw them rushing towards the black mist, but he was stunned for a moment, and then followed closely, although the speed was not as fast as the car in front of them, it also reached their limit at this time.
The terrifying images that are in front of you can no longer be described in words. It was only in front of me that I could see what it was, they resembled locusts but were five or six times larger than normal locusts.
