Chapter Seventy-Three: The Giant Cocoon

The next day, Cang Qingle got up early, ran to the top of the building, and stood on the top floor of the four-story building, with a panoramic view of everything in the small village.

The faint morning mist faded, revealing a close-up view of a small village not far away.

Cang Qingle found that there were many mulberry trees nearby, and there were some white things hanging on the mulberry trees, white masses, about the size of a vegetable basket, like a large rugby, and the number was no longer a few.

Strange to her, when she looked at the village again, she saw a long white-green wall tightly enclosing the small village, and when it was time for breakfast, wisps of smoke rose from several traditional tiled roofs.

It's clear that there are living people living in it!

"Qingle? Did you find out too? The sound of the public transport suddenly sounded.

Cang Qingle looked at him unexpectedly: "Brother Gongyi, you stayed for half a night last night, why don't you rest for a while?" ”

"What is half a night, I have long been accustomed to light sleep, since the end of the world suddenly came, the days of stability are gone, and I am always scared." I don't care about the public flow, but the emotions show some loss, in the last days, it is the zombies that are guarded against outside, but the hearts of the people are guarded against inside.

If it weren't for the unpredictability of the people, they would not have fled from the Qiushui base, and if they hadn't been prepared, they would have died long ago. In this kind of world, it is not possible to remain the same, who can maintain the original intention.

"Qingle, guess what those things are wrapped around the trees?" His fingers wagged at something in the distance, back to the main question.

Cang Qingle frowned, was silent for a while, and finally shook his head. "You know?"

She guessed a little, just couldn't be sure.

Gong Yanliu replied to her with great certainty, "It's silk!" ”

He was born with farsightedness, and he could see anything the size of a football from a distance of a kilometer, let alone so close.

"Silk." Cang Qingle muttered, turned his head to look at the two-story tall mulberry tree, and the guess in his heart suddenly became firm.

It seems that this is the place where the mutant silkworm was first discovered in the previous life.

Because of the blockage of the mountains, the village did not encounter the snow and the rain a month after the end of the world, and it was a pure land that was rarely unpolluted after the end of the world. However, there are more and more zombies in the outside world, and zombies will attack from all over the place, and the villagers will definitely be powerless to resist, but the mulberry trees planted at the edge of the village have mutated because they have absorbed the polluted water flowing downstream, resulting in the silkworms that eat mulberry leaves to survive have also changed.

After the villagers found out, they used them to wrap around the trees, thus besieging a natural protective ring around the city, they couldn't get out, and the zombies couldn't get in.

In the previous life, this village was finally discovered because the resources in the village were exhausted, and the moths in the cocoons broke out of the cocoons and attacked the village from time to time.

At that time, the Canglong base and the Qiushui base almost fell out for the matter of fighting for silk, and she had just returned to her parents at that time.

This silk is said to be the best material for making anti-zombie bite equipment in the last days.

It's just that she was met so accidentally in this life.

"Qingle, if we can put away these cocoons outside, it will definitely be of great use." Gong Yanliu looked at the few zombies blocked outside the village by a circle of silk, his eyes were shining, only give him some time, he was sure to make good use of these things.

"Hmm." Cang Qingle smiled approvingly at him.

Gong Liuliu seemed to be greatly encouraged, and said excitedly: "Qingle, you support me." ”

He thought that his idea was wild, but he didn't want Cang Qingle to think the same, which made him happy.

"Of course, the eldest brother is a descendant of Luban, not a simple person, how could I not believe you. We went to call Brother Wood, took advantage of the time to knock down the cocoons on the tree early, and left in the afternoon. Cang Qingle was in a good mood, and it was rare to smile and say flattering words to the public.

"What Luban descendants, don't talk about these, the bloodlines have been separated for thousands of years, and they have long been estranged." I'm a little embarrassed.

Downstairs, Gong Yanliu and Ou Zimu and Bai Wanru said their thoughts, although the two of them felt that it was not very reliable, but they agreed, after all, the end of the world itself is an unreliable thing, but it still happened.

In order not to get into trouble as much as possible, the four of them were sprinkled with white incense that was specially designed to confuse the zombies' sense of smell, and the zombies couldn't find them, plus there were very few zombies nearby, and there were also first-class zombies or first-class zombies who had not been preyed for a long time, and their strength was so weak that they were not good, and they had long been accustomed to seeing a few people who were second- and third-level zombies, and they didn't pay attention to them at all.

"Is this really a cocoon?" Shiro looked dumbfounded at the white thing the size of a baby that fell under his feet, unable to believe his eyes at all.

When Gong Chuanliu said it, she still didn't believe it, but now when she sees that it is indeed a cocoon that is magnified n times, she can't help but sigh at the miracle of the Creator.

"Sister Ruru, you read that right, it is indeed a silkworm cocoon." Cang Qingle smiled and put things into the space.

Although they had encountered mutant rats and mutant cats before, the size of the mutant animals at that time was not exaggerated, so it was inevitable to be surprised for a while.

However, the reminder of the size of mutated animals continues to grow, but their meat is non-toxic and harmless, which can provide more food for humans, but also bring a greater existential crisis. Until three or four years after the end of the world, with the expansion of the animal crisis, there were post-apocalyptic animal tamers in the base who were engaged in domesticating mutant animals, and mutant animals became a weapon to defeat high-level zombies on the battlefield.

"We've searched all the area, and there are 239 cocoons in total." Cang Qingle counted the harvest for a long time.

"Okay, eat this rabbit and we'll leave the village." Ou Zimu proudly lifted a hare he had caught on the way, the rabbit had clearly mutated, the size of a yellow dog that had always been an adult, and he easily tugged at the rabbit's ears and looked effortless.

He had never tried it since he knew that mutant animals could eat it, and he didn't know what the meat tasted like, Ou Zimu looked at the rabbit with blood-red eyes, and just wanted to roast it immediately.

Cang Qingle looked at his curiosity and wanted to eat, and he didn't want him to be disappointed, but, "Brother Wood, killing rabbits is to see blood, and zombies can't come to you when they see blood." ”

When Ou Zimu heard this, he raised his eyebrows in confusion, the end of the world is trouble, in order to survive, worrying about this and worrying about that is more annoying than an army full of rules.

"Then I'll put it away." If you can't eat it, it's better to put it away, and you can still see it.
