Chapter VIII

There were also dark red blood stains in front of the toll booth on the expressway, which was not so fresh, and there was a lump of carrion in the middle of the road in the distance, and the cars out of the city rolled over it, making a creaking sound like maggots. Since some time ago, the food has been rotting at an accelerated pace, and these zombies don't know when they died, and now they have maggots on their bodies, slowly wriggling between the carrion.

On the weekend, I only felt my scalp tingling and shivering, but I didn't close my eyes, and watched the scenery around me whizz by. On the highway, she is much more relaxed, every time she goes home, she is on this road, but she is also familiar, nervous for so long, at this moment suddenly relaxed, I feel a little tired.

In order to save fuel, the air conditioner was not turned on in the car, and the hot air exhaled by the two formed a mist on the glass, and whenever the line of sight was blocked, Teng Yue would turn on the air conditioner and blow it.

On the weekend, gently wipe the mist from the glass and quietly look out the window.

Outside the window, there are clumps of cut rice and grass stumps lined up in the paddy fields with gray dust floating, and some farmland with green plants can be faintly seen under the dust, and the rows of grass seedlings are lush and green, about the height of a person's calf, and they are very strong. In such a cold winter, such a tenacious life color is very rare.

"Hey, do you think there's something wrong?" She touched Teng Yue with her elbow.

"You found out too?"

"It's like I'm stupid." Rolled her eyes over the weekend, she hasn't avenged the revenge for ruining her car. She pointed to a gray-green field fluttering in the wind outside: "That's supposed to be wheat, right?" How did this winter grow so well? In previous years, I went home like a wilderness, and I didn't seem to see any green in the field, am I mistaken? ”

When she was young, her teacher once said 'Ruixue Zhaofeng Year', which means that the snow covers the wheat and freezes all the insects to death, and the wheat will flourish and harvest in the next year.

At first, I didn't notice it, but now the more I look at it, the more I feel that something is wrong: "That's the seedling of rape flowers, right?" I remember that every year I go to Wuyuan to see the rape flowers are around March, and now it is not the New Year, and the rape flowers have grown so tall, which will grow to March, how tall do they have to grow? "Rape seedlings, like wheat, grow to calf height, some are knee-high, gray-green, gray-green, and grow in light gray fields, which looks particularly strange in such a cold winter.

Teng Yue said: "Look at the trees on both sides. ”

After his reminder, the weekend hurriedly focused on the trees on both sides. The greening of Hangzhou has been very good, even in winter, the trees are still covered with gray haze, but you can still see that the plants are luxuriant, and the towering trees on both sides are towering, like sharp swords.

"This ...... It seems that the tall ones are a little too much. She was silent, a little surprised, the trees on both sides were lush, and the branches stretched out into the middle of the road, forming a long green arched tree hole, and the car drove in it, and if it was spring, the fields were full of bright yellow rape flowers, which was beautiful. However, at this time, it only makes people feel worried.

Only then did she remember that she would feel strange when she went out of the community, because the trees in the community seemed to have grown a lot, and the dense ones were a little abnormal.

"Wheat and rape flowers grow too fast, maybe the grain can also be harvested, plants grow too fast, urban greening or something......" She couldn't say the words herself, and she couldn't deceive herself.

Now the shijie flu virus broke out, but caught up with the radiation, I don't know if the radiation changed the structure of the virus to cause people to mutate into zombies, plus the earthquake, if the disaster relief work after the earthquake is not in place, the corpses are decomposed, and another virus outbreak is just worse, human beings themselves are still difficult to protect, what else to talk about urban greening? Besides, the growth of this plant is too unbelievable, how can there be such obvious growth? If this trend continues, a city with a large area of greenery like Hangzhou will not be able to become an urban forest.

Speaking of mutation, radiation causes both humans and plants to mutate, but what about animals? Not to mention large carnivores, cockroaches, frogs, snakes, locusts and whatever, the scalp is numb just thinking about it.

It's winter now, snakes are still hibernating, mosquitoes and flies are very few in winter, this kind of animal is not too much to worry about for the time being, other animals ...... She looked up at the sky, which was gray and silent, except for the wires.

"I remember that the swallows are going to the south, and the sparrows are not going to go too, are they? weishenme can't even see a bird in the sky? In previous years, she hadn't paid attention to these problems, but now it suddenly occurred to her that the silence outside the main thing was too unusual, "Can you get to Jinling before dark?" If we can't catch up with us, it's better to find a place to rest for a night, the night haze is thick, the visual distance is too short, just had an earthquake, if there is a big crater in front, we don't know if we fall in. ”

Originally, it only took four hours to get to my hometown, but now it's almost twelve o'clock, and there are still four hours, I don't know what will happen on the way, I just hope to get home before dark, this way is to tell, I hope there is no problem.

This year's winter is different from previous years, there is no snow, but it is extremely cold, it is an unusual dry cold, and the cold seems to be able to penetrate the skin into the bones.

She wrapped a long scarf made of thick mink wool around her neck twice, put her hands in her pockets, and shrunk her feet, "I'll sleep for a while, recuperate for a while, if something calls me, if you are sleepy, call me, and I'll change it." ”

Seeing that Teng Yue was silent, she closed her eyes and fell asleep on the back of the chair, and after half a minute, she moved, put the back of the chair back a little, suppressed the strong uneasiness in her heart, and fell asleep with her eyes closed.

Teng Yue glanced at her, and at this angle, he could cut her throat with just a slight stroke.

The corners of his lips lifted slightly, and he continued driving.

There is not only one car on the road, there are many cars passing by, and occasionally there will be people who stretch out their hands to stop the car, Teng Yue ignores them and quickly flies over.

There was a strange feeling in her sleep, she knew she was asleep, but her consciousness was awake, and to say that she was awake, she knew that she was dreaming. She dreamed that she was in the midst of a darkness in which there were many small rays of light, like bubbles in the sun, of all colors, red like fire, blue like water, green like wood, yellow like earth, golden bright, and then deep blue, ice blue, white, transparent, and even black.

She seemed to be in the bubbles of colorful points of light, reaching out to touch those points of light, as if touching air, and the transparent points of light seemed to be extremely excited, and after touching her skin, they happily burrowed into her body, as if to crush her body.

Bump...... Why is the movement getting louder and louder? She woke up in a daze, her body was tired, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Teng Yue who was pushing her brows.

"What's wrong?" She rubbed her eyes, the dream just now was so clear, but she didn't feel anything when she woke up, just a dream.

"Is there another way?" The voice was deep.

At the end of the week, I saw that the mountain collapsed in front of me due to the earthquake, and the debris rolling down from the mountain blocked the tunnel mouth tightly. And if they had to go back the other way, it would be sixty kilometers back and forth, and they would not have time to waste on the road.

"What is this place?" She turned her head to take a look, and saw a smashed iron plaque under the mountain rock not far away, and she could vaguely see the words on it, "Here?" I thought about it, and walked back ten miles, through a few small towns, and then on the highway that I could go back to, but the road was very narrow and not easy to walk. ”

The problem is, no one knows if the road is safe or not, and they don't know what accidents will happen on the road. But if you want to drive back...... Teng Yue drove back on the forward road of the highway, and the reverse road had to go through the tunnel to make a U-turn.

After driving for about ten miles, there is a downhill path on the right, all the roads here are repaired, all cement roads, it is not difficult to open, but after entering the town, the bloody and quiet town on the road still makes the weekend a little uncomfortable, her worries finally came true, because the earthquake caused many houses to collapse, some of the corpses in the ruins were not dealt with in time, now although the weather is unusually dry and cold, but the degree of decay of the corpses has not decreased at all, and before entering the town, I smelled a foul smell of rotting corpses, which is disgusting.

Some trees on the road have fallen and are lying in the middle of the road, and the two of them have gone around again and again in such a short road of dozens of miles. I passed through six or seven small towns like this, and sometimes I would encounter some scattered zombies on the road, and when I heard the sound of the car motor, I rushed excitedly, and usually before I could get into the car, the car would speed past.

"You say, how long will this catastrophe last?" He looked worried over the weekend, "Will the zombie virus continue to be contagious?" Will the government be able to maintain normal order when it declares? When asked about Zuihou, she also knew that Teng Yue would not answer her, but she couldn't see the future and couldn't stop the confusion in her heart.

She knows that this kind of viral disaster and natural disasters that human beings cannot resist will not end in a while, and it may last for thirty or fifty or even a hundred years, just like the turbulent times in ancient times, and human beings will regain and develop into a prosperous civilized society again.

Teng Yue looked at the girl who was depressed and confused beside him, he was a person who licked life on the knife, all he wanted to do every day was to live, it made no difference to him whether he was in the last days or not, for people like him, maybe he would live better in the last days.

He didn't pay attention to her questions, and asked her in a cold voice, "How long is it until the highway?" ”

"It's the highway through the town in front of you." The weekend came and went quickly, mainly because the hellish sight she had just seen along the way reminded her of her parents, and she was worried that she would ...... when she returned

"We need to hurry up and get on the highway, the plants are growing faster and faster!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge animal suddenly flew out of the fork in the road, flapping its wings and making a clucking sound, and its sharp mouth was pointed at their car, pecking at it. Teng Yue slammed the steering wheel, the car made a sharp friction sound with the ground, drifted diagonally, stepped on the brakes, hit the steering wheel, and left immediately, and there was a high-pitched gurgling sound behind him, flapping his wings and chasing all the time.

Weekend's eyes widened in surprise and asked, "What's that?" Ostrich? ”

Teng Jie slowed down, looked back from the rear mirror, and his face couldn't help but become solemn, "It should be a rooster." or w,,""Rooster? The weekend was dumbfounded: "I'll it!" A rooster the size of a buffalo? "
