Chapter 304
The question-and-answer dialogue is still ongoing, accompanied by the sound of heavy objects being lifted and dropped. Ouyang Zhi leaned against the wall, not in a hurry to show up, although the conversation between the two people was very boring, he still learned a lot of information from it.
Since two months ago, this base has been constantly hunting mutant beasts, and at the beginning, the number was very small, only about a few per day. But after three weeks, the number of mutant beasts began to increase, and at the very least, there were dozens or even hundreds of them every day. Moreover, the end of these mutant beasts is to turn into corpses and be discarded in an open place outside the base and burned. The meat of the mutant beast is edible, even if the object is an ordinary person, but these dead mutant beasts are burned, you know, since the number of mutant beasts began to increase, the population of the base is also increasing. Food is a big problem.
Although the Xinjiang base has done its best to support, it is still a drop in the bucket. After all, just transporting materials from hundreds of kilometers away is a matter of manpower, material and financial resources. Not to mention that they may encounter robberies from other survivors on the way, just dealing with the constant sneak attacks of mutant beasts and zombie beasts is enough for them to eat a pot. And most importantly, the territorial base is not rich. There are also a large number of survivors in their base, and although the free supply has been canceled in the Xinjiang base, they must also ensure that they have enough material reserves in the face of the survivors who rely on their own labor to receive supplies. Therefore, these two people are very puzzled and angry about the waste of food in the underground base.
But. Even so, they did not dare to question the order. Maybe someone reminded them that these mutant beasts are no longer suitable for food. Moreover, their corpses cannot be used as food for other mutant beasts, and the only way is to burn them.
Ouyang Zhi speculated that these mutant beasts must be the experimental subjects of this base, and perhaps, in addition to these mutant beasts, there should also be human experiments. It's just that I don't know if someone else is responsible for those people's bodies. Or did human experiments not die? But. It should be the first case, after all, human experiments, there is no case without casualties. Even the human experiments of the Ouyang family. This can also be the case.
After listening to it for about ten minutes. It is estimated that the two people have already packed the corpse of the mutant beast. Because their conversation is over. And, depending on the situation, they are going to go out through this passage.
Ouyang Zhi looked up and down and on both sides of the passage. There was simply no place for him to hide. If you don't want to deal with them now, you can only quit before they come. However, even if he was not found in the passage, when the two men went out and saw the collapsed piles of stones, they would be alarmed, and it would be difficult for him to come in again.
The change of thoughts was only a matter of a moment, and when Ouyang Zhi came over with the cart, he stepped forward with an arrow and solved the two people very neatly.
This is a pickup truck, and the back compartment wants to be piled with the corpses of various mutant beasts. But most of them are common mammals on the grassland, such as mutant cows, mutated sheep, mutated horses, etc., and there are also fierce beasts such as mutant wolves, but the number is small. Ouyang Zhi put on gloves and took a cursory look at the corpses of several mutant beasts at the top. At first glance, these mutant beasts don't seem to have changed their appearance, so from their appearance, it is impossible to tell what kind of experiment they have received. Ouyang Zhi looked at the mouth and eyes of a mutant wolf. I found that the teeth of this mutant wolf had actually become dull, yes, they were blunt. This mutant wolf is in the prime of life, so its teeth are not dulled by aging, nor are they dulled by gnawing on hard things. The only explanation is that this is a consequence of the experiment. Looking at the eyes again, because they were already dead, they found no useful clues other than seeing more of the whites of the eyes.
Ouyang Zhi looked at the mutant wolf's claws again, and these claws were also dull. It looks like this mutant wolf has degenerated. Ouyang Zhi looked at the parts of several other mutant beasts and found the same problem.
Ignoring the mutant beasts in the car, including the corpses of the two men in the car, Ouyang Zhi began to look at the building in front of him. Next to the car is a long, wide pipe, like a garbage disposal pipe in a high-rise building. However, this pipe is used to drop the corpses of mutant beasts. Ouyang Zhi took a look at the probe, it was estimated that it was more than 20 meters high, and now there was no continued corpse on it, but he couldn't see the situation above.
Skipping the pipe, Ouyang Zhi looked at a small room in front of him. Inside there were several camp beds, a table, a couple of chairs. On the table were also bags of eaten biscuits. This room was supposed to be the rest place where the two men worked, or the rest room for the people on duty. Because Ouyang Zhi found a duty schedule on the wall. Before today's date, several batches of numbered tables had been marked, and from the numbers on them, Ouyang Zhi had deduced that they had shown the time they had been on duty and the number of mutant beast corpses they had processed.
The duty schedule is this week, and now it's Thursday, and they have dealt with more than 300 mutant beasts in the past few days, an average of three times a day. This is the first time today. There is no name of the person on duty on it, only a simple number. Ouyang Zhi set his eyes on a walkie-talkie on the marching bed. If you're not mistaken, this walkie-talkie is how to connect with the base here. As Ouyang Zhi measured, there is no monitoring of the passage and the outside of the passage. I don't know if there is anything inside the base. But it has been almost half an hour since Ouyang stopped coming in, and there has been no response from the base, and it is estimated that even if there is monitoring, it is still in a state of non-work. The lights on the Lenovo channel, Ouyang Zhi speculated, should be for the sake of saving energy.
Just as Ouyang Zhi continued to look at the room, a voice began to come from the walkie-talkie.
"No. 302, have you loaded the car?" A commanding voice, listening to this tone, must be the so-called No. 302, that is, the boss of the two men who have become corpses.
"It's loaded." Ouyang Zhi put on the voice changer and adjusted his voice to the tone of the younger voice he had just heard, from the conversation they had just had, that young man was the leader of the duo.
"Then come and get your lunch, and pull the corpse out when you're done!" (To be continued.) )
