Volume 1: The Source of Life Chapter 8: The Firebird
Behind him came the hoarse roar of the golden retriever, and in anger and despair it seemed to stand up again. It had to do everything in its power to kill the young human, and it was better to defeat anyone than to a child.
The foul-smelling wind mixed with sand, gravel and grass clippings rushed straight to Sang Yu's back, and the ferocity of the golden retriever pressed her head towards her with the momentum of dying together.
Sang Yu is a child in the end, he has learned a lot of knowledge, but he has not enough experience.
When the golden retriever pounced, a branch that was commanded by Sang Yu to stretch out obliquely was in the first gear, and once again pounced in the air. And Sang Yu has already taken refuge behind a big rock.
At this moment, the wristbow was no longer able to fight with the mutated golden retriever. She is not afraid of being hurt, she is afraid of being scratched by the golden retriever and causing mutations.
Grandpa said that Liu Da was mutated by a mutated dog.
There is a bush in front of you, and you can summon vines as long as you run to that bush. With the help of the vines, she could try other methods, such as guiding the Golden Retriever to the trench.
Sang Yu did not dare to run to the cave not far away, where there were grandmothers and brothers, and she could not bring danger to them.
Then there was only the trench that ran to the grandfather dug it, and Sang Yu knew where the grandfather buried something in the place of the last trench. Just run fast on your own, run over and let the vines lift themselves over. The golden retriever will definitely be fooled and pounce.
Then it's dead.
Mulberry ran desperately towards the bushes, bare barren mountains, with few trees. The weak weeds on the ground couldn't help Mulberry, and they were about to run to the thorn bushes, but the golden retriever had already chased after them from behind.
The fat body of the golden retriever pounced, and it was bound to knock the little girl down, and then bite her throat.
The smell of blood, with the fishy smell of a dog peculiar to the Golden Retriever, came from behind. Seeing it, the golden retriever's claws were about to grab Sang Yu's back. Suddenly, he heard a loud shout, Jing Zhan jumped up, and his thin body was like a cannonball out of the chamber, hitting the huge body of the golden retriever.
The golden retriever was knocked down by Jing Zhan in the thorn bush, and countless thorn quinoa grew wildly in the air, quickly wrapping the golden retriever bundle into a ball.
Jing Zhan picked up a big stone and smashed it at the dog's head, again and again, smashing the golden retriever's brains and black blood.
"Sang Yu, have you been caught?"
Meng Qinghu hurriedly came over and picked up Sang Yu and shouted, he was stunned by the scene just now, if it wasn't for Jing Zhan, the current Sang Yu might have been bitten by this golden retriever.
"I'm fine."
Sang Yu stood up and looked at the golden retriever, and hurriedly ran over and hugged Jing Zhan: "Brother Jing Zhan, the dog is dead, don't smash it." ”
Jing Zhan's eyes were blood-red, and he looked down at the little Sang Yu in his arms.
He was so scared that for a moment, he thought he was going to lose this little sister. He had vowed to protect her, but he didn't, putting her in danger.
"Sister, grandpa?"
Meng Qinghu walked over, took away the blood-dripping stone in Jing Zhan's hand and threw it away, pulled it past Sang Yu and lowered his head and asked, "Why didn't Grandpa come back with you?" ”
Sang Yu looked at the town, and there was a fire: "Grandpa is in the town, tell me to go back to the cave to accompany you first." ”
"What's going on in town?"
Jing Zhan's hands were still trembling, he tried to control himself, and asked in a trembling voice.
"A colony of mutated dogs and a large colony of termites came to the west side of the road, and they may have entered the town by now."
Sang Yu thought of the predicament that his grandfather might face, and tears came down.
"I'm going to find grandpa, Jing Zhan, you take your sister back."
Meng Qinghu pushed Sang Yu to Jing Zhan and ran down the mountain, Jing Zhan hugged Sang Yu and hesitated. Sang Yu wanted to say that the town was dangerous, but she thought of her grandfather and was very worried.
Why don't we go and have a look, it should be fine if there is a fire.
Fierce flames quickly sparked on the water, and soon, the entire community was filled with a scorching smell.
There were termites on the side of the road that had not entered the water, and they immediately evacuated to the other side of the road with their leaders, and the termites and wild dogs in the water, only a few of the fish that escaped the net crawled into the town, and most of them were buried in the sea of fire in the water.
The giant queen stood up straight and looked at the town angrily.
It's what it needs, and it can smell the sweet smell wafting in.
If you can't get it, you'd rather die.
It looked up at the sky and made a strange, high-pitched sound. The sound is long, like a straight line reaching into the sky, then blooming and spreading farther away.
This is the queen summoning her companions, and she's telling them that there's the food you need. I am happy to share with you that we can become stronger ants and rule the blue planet together.
Whether it is a primate human, or a snake, insect, rat and ant, as long as they are strong enough, they will have irrepressible ambitions.
One by one, the protective shields were opened, and everyone teamed up in groups of three or two to kill the wild dogs and termites that escaped sporadically.
On the road across the town, a colony of termites stands quietly on the other side of the road, confronting the town. It is waiting, another round of new attacks, also searching, the loophole of the town of the eighth arrondissement.
Grandpa Meng smashed the head of the last wild dog and looked up at the termite colony outside the town. My mind was full of questions. Why haven't they given up yet?
For most people, they see it as a victory, albeit at a high cost.
Those black oils and firebirds are all rationed by the base, but they are used a little less. If you want to maintain your strength, you have to exchange points. And points, in this day and age, are more expensive than money, because it can save life when it is critical.
More people are coming out of their houses and starting to clean up the streets, which they have experienced many times. At first, it only appeared once in five or six years, but now it is becoming more and more frequent, and the last pig farm change has only been less than half a year now.
"Hello Grandpa Meng."
"Nana, hello."
Lao Meng stopped, took out a bean from his pocket, and handed it to Qiao Lina, who came out with Lao Qiao: "Nana, don't run around, your grandfather still has to clean the square." ”
"Thank you, Grandpa Meng, I'll go to the river to see the burnt ants and dogs."
The little girl is the same age as Huzi, wearing a neat blue princess dress, her hair is beautifully braided, and a blue bow hairpin is specially pinned to the braids.
Grandpa Meng deliberately glanced at the blue butterfly hairpin, and when his son came back next time, he must ask his son to bring a beautiful skirt to Sang Yu, as well as a butterfly hairpin.
Watching Nana jump and a few children running to the river, Nana's grandfather smiled proudly: "Don't look at my family, this is a girl, her courage is no less than that of a tiger." ”
"Nana is a smart girl, like her father."
"Huzi is also very smart, Sang Yu ......"
Speaking of Sang Yu, Nana's grandfather smiled awkwardly: "Sang Yu is a well-behaved child. ”
Well-behaved, in this world means weak.
At this moment, the weak Sang Yu was coming down from the mountain to the town with his two elder brothers.
"Sang Yu, are you sure this method is okay?"
Meng Qinghu and Jing Zhan each hugged a bunch of grass and slowly scattered it around the town.
They went down the mountain, and did not enter the town, but were instructed by Sang Yu to pull this wild grass that could be seen everywhere.
If it's usual, you should play with Sang Yu, and the two brothers have no opinion. But now that grandpa is in the town, there are mutated wild dogs and termites attacking, and they are pulling this useless weed here, Xiaohuzi is a little reluctant.
Jing Zhan didn't say a word, he usually didn't like to talk, but as long as Sang Yu said it, he listened to it. He will do whatever Sang Yu asks him to do, and he will never discount it.
All they had to do was mint and some unknown weeds. Sang Yu only gave them a sample, and then told them to look for it all over the mountains and fields. Mulberry elm picks and picks, picking out useful mint and some herbs and rubbing them together.
Meng Qinghu complained while pulling weeds: "Sang Yu, hasn't grandpa already used fire to extinguish termites?" Why are we still doing this outside of town, I want to go and see what charred termites and dogs look like. ”
"They'll definitely come back." Sang Yu sniffed, she could smell the scent of the queen.
She remembered that she still had chili peppers and laurel at home, and turned around and ran up the hill again.
"Sangyu, why are you going?"
Sang Yutou replied without replying: "I went to my grandmother to ask for laurel powder and chili noodles." ”
Xiaohuzi rolled his eyes and muttered in a low voice: "Are you still going to roast termites to eat, why don't you bring some salt?" ”
What he didn't expect was that Sang Yu not only brought salt, but also the only garlic and various spices at home. If it weren't for the mess of weed foam and spices she mixed together, it was suspicious that she was going to be ready for a barbecue.
Sang Yu looked at Meng Qinghu who was standing differently, and hurriedly shouted sweetly: "Big brother, go and get more weeds." ”
Meng Qinghu pursed his lips, thinking in his heart, my sister is too playful, do you still want to play at this time? He didn't want to pull the weeds at all, he wanted to go into the town and see it.
He looked at Jing Zhan, who was pulling the weeds with his head down not far away, and then looked at the mulberry elm who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, smashing the spices and mint with stones and starting to stir. Forget it, if you play at home, you can play at home, he can't even be as good as Jing Zhan, this is his own sister.
Dozens of kilometers away, the only city, Stone City.
"Grandpa, are you looking for me?"
At the Shicheng command post, a handsome teenager walked in. His face was as if it had been carved into jade, his eyes were deep, and his nose was high. The corners of his lips are slightly upturned, and he smiles at any time. This kind of smile, shallow and light, but like the sun after the rain, fresh and gentle, makes people feel warm.
He is the youngest commander of the base command post, thirteen-year-old Xiao Muchen.
Although Xiao Muchen is only thirteen years old, he has a high IQ and is also the best commander of the Self-Defender Alliance. To evaluate him in the words of those uncles and uncles in the base, he is born with affinity and leadership qualities.
Behind the desk was an old man with gray hair, who said: "It's not normal for a large number of termites to go to the town of District 8." You personally lead the team and send patrol planes over to take a look. ”
Xiao Muchen raised his hand to buckle the uniform button on his collar: "Is it that the eighth district grows the food that termites like to eat, otherwise why did they all go to the eighth district?" ”
"It's still unclear that Lao Meng of District 8 has been looking for seeds left over from the twentieth century, and it is likely that he actually planted something. You go and see, whether there is or not, you can't let Lao Meng's hard work over the years be ruined by this group of termites. ”
Xiao Muchen stood up and saluted: "Yes." ”
