Chapter 70: Wrong Evolution?
In fact, what made Su Ziyan feel uneasy was not only that there might be more and more high-level individuals among the zombies, but there was another thing that also made her feel uneasy.
It's just that this incident has not caused real harm in the short term, so that many people, including Su Ziyan, have chosen to forget about it.
That is the small animal that should have moved, with the advent of the zombie apocalypse, it seems to have disappeared without a trace, this thing is extremely abnormal, it doesn't seem big or small, but strictly speaking, it is not a small problem.
In fact, Su Ziyan was aware of this phenomenon a long time ago, and when she returned to her hometown in the early hours of that morning, she had this idea.
Speaking of the same as other places in Haizhou, Honglin Village and Sujiakou Village also have the habit of raising dogs, and the countryside likes dogs rather than cats, because dogs are easy to raise, and they can take care of the home, and almost one in a few families will have a puppy. Or take care of the home, or keep it as a pet, or even the elderly keep a dog as a companion, in short, the rural place, the most lacking is the soil dog, that is, the obedient Chinese pastoral dog.
When she came back in the early hours of that morning, Su Ziyan didn't hear the barking of dogs around her as usual, which was so quiet that it made people feel a little cold, and she felt inappropriate at that time. It's just that the end of the world was approaching at that time, and she was concerned about the safety of her family, so she didn't think about it in her heart.
Later, when she came back to her senses, she realized that this apocalyptic crisis was not only affecting humans as primates, but other small animals seemed to be affected by this crisis as well.
Although the former may seem insignificant compared to zombies that may evolve, after thinking about it, Su Ziyan doesn't think it's a trivial matter. You know, zombies are big enough, and when you really want to deal with them, there are quite a lot of ways to intercept them, but the attacks of small animals are unguardable, and it is difficult for humans to really prevent contact with them.
Now more than a week has passed since the zombie outbreak, and there is still no shadow of small animals. Then there are only two possibilities, one is that the apocalyptic virus is lethal to them, which means that these small animals that Su Ziyan is worried about have all died and pose no threat to them.
The second is that the virus is still in the dormant stage, and due to a certain mechanism, those small animals infected with the virus do not appear immediately.
Su Ziyan's hope is the first type, which of course stems from her danger-averse mentality, hoping that everything will go smoothly and not add more variables. And as a master of all living beings, Su Ziyan instinctively inclined that human beings should have their particularity, so Su Ziyan guessed that it would be because human beings have the possibility of resisting the apocalyptic virus, so many people survived?
Those zombies, just because the resistance failed, and produced an alternative evolution?
This speculation is not to say that it is impossible.
If you succeed in becoming an evolutionary, you may survive if you don't succeed, or you may evolve in the wrong direction, and those who have no ability to resist at all, like those little animals, will simply die?
Su Ziyan was taken aback by her boldness, but at the same time she knew that this possibility existed, but her own conformation was too idealistic, and the real possibility was very low.
Because as mammals, there are a large number of organisms that have a mechanism of resisting external "poisoning" that is not much different from that of humans, and there is no reason at all that only humans survive, while all other small animals die.
This goes against the overall picture of the survival of the species.
After thinking about it, the uneasiness in Su Ziyan's heart was magnified, and she suddenly realized that her second guess was more likely!
Those small animals, due to some mechanism, must still be in the dormant period.
I just don't know if when they wake up, whether they will successfully complete the evolution of the species, or become a more inferior zombie beast.
Either way, it doesn't seem like a good thing for the humans who survived.
On the mountain bag, Su Ziyan stood upright with a telescope in her hand, the wind gently blew a few strands of hair around her ears, and kept patting her cheeks, but she didn't care about being aroused, but she didn't have much to think about in her heart.
Just when she was secretly thinking about zombies, she suddenly heard a noise from the side, and when she looked back, she found that it was Su Junwu who had come.
"What do you think, so distracted?"
Su Junwu came to Su Ziyan's side, looked at her with a pensive look, and asked.
A generation of alluring cities and waves, just this silhouette killed countless people in seconds.
Su Ziyan glanced at him and shook her head: "It's nothing." ”
Su Junwu scratched his head a little, strictly speaking, Su Junwu didn't know much about his suddenly extra "cousin", just now when he was below, he saw her standing alone on the mountain in a daze, Su Junwu wanted to come up and say a few words to her, and get closer to each other.
In any case, she is her own cousin, and although she shows off her skills in front of everyone in the afternoon and establishes her position, she inevitably offends many people. In Su Junwu's opinion, Su Ziyan, who had this encounter, should be in a relatively lonely state of mind at this time, and he knew what it was like to be excluded by others in a strange group.
And as her cousin, she should come over to explain her, so that she doesn't feel left out.
With such a thought, Su Junwu came over, but he didn't expect that as soon as he spoke, Su Ziyan's reaction was so cold, like an iceberg. Even though he had prepared a series of words before coming up, he didn't know how to speak at this time.
In fact, Su Junwu misunderstood her, if the two were really not familiar at all, Su Ziyan would not be so cold to him, it is precisely because the two are very familiar with each other, so familiar that Su Ziyan completely knows Su Junwu's temperament, which makes her treat him so coldly.
Familiar people don't need to be too enthusiastic, a simple "um" can start a topic.
Su Ziyan came back to her senses after a while, and suddenly realized that she was already chatting with Su Junwu with a new identity at the moment, and immediately found that she was a "cousin", and she really didn't give her cousin face.
Seeing that Su Junwu wanted to speak and was suffocated with an uncomfortable expression, she smiled secretly, turned around and wiped the stones on the ground, and she sat down.
"That, I'll call you Brother Xiaowu like Ziling."
Just when Su Junwu was about to hold back his internal injuries, Su Ziyan's soft and pleasant voice suddenly came into his ears.
In fact, she used to be called Ah Wu, but this title is obviously a name between buddies without scruples, and it is not suitable for her identity at this time, Su Ziyan thought about it, it is better to call her sister according to her name, at least others will not feel weird.
Su Junwu was pleasantly surprised, and suddenly felt as if an iceberg had melted.
"Ah, of course!"
Next, the conversation box opened, Su Junwu and Su Ziyan chatted without a word, they were all innocuous little things, and took this opportunity to try to establish a new relationship with him through chatting.
During this period, Su Ziyan talked about Su Zijia and Su Zihe, and also talked about several other surviving peers in Sujiakou Village.
As soon as Su Ziyan's words came out, she knew that she had said the wrong thing.
"That...... I'm sorry. She said with a shy face.
Su Junwu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect her to apologize for this incident, but it was very different from the "temper" in the afternoon, so he shook his head gently.
At this moment, the sound of "bells and bells" came from the bottom of the mountain.
Su Ziyan stood up, patted her buttocks gently, and said to Su Junwu, "Let's go, it's time for dinner." With that, he took the lead and walked down the dirt road.
Su Junwu looked at Su Ziyan who was walking and stretched out his hand to keep picking up the dog's tail grass hanging on both sides of the dirt road, his style of action was really decisive and simple, he shook his head, stood up and followed.
