The Road to the Cocoon Chapter Seventy-Five: What's in the Wall
After all the zombies were killed, the two came to the bottom of the high wall.
"Did you notice that these zombies ignored me just now?" Qin Jian opened his mouth and said.
"Maybe I didn't hear you, did I?"
"It's impossible, zombies are very sensitive to hearing, and besides, I've been cutting zombies just now, so it's impossible for these people under the wall not to hear?"
"So, what are they attracted to?" Xu Xin also looked up at the high wall.
There is nothing noteworthy on the high wall, only some traces of potholes, which is a sign of the aging of the wall, after all, the No. 7 Farm has been built for more than ten years, and this high wall has not been rebuilt so far.
"Could it be that you are really attracted by some noise?" Xu Xin was a little confused: "There is no noise on the farm?" ”
After a long time, Xu Xin suddenly thought of something and said, "Did the sound of the demolition of the building yesterday attract them?" ”
"That's not going to attract hundreds of them in an instant, is it?" Qin Jian felt that what Xu Xin said was a bit ridiculous.
"There's only one reason for that!" Xu Xin's face changed suddenly.
"Mutants!"
Xu Xin remembered his guess last night, and said in horror that if the zombies were not attracted by the noise to launch an attack over the wall, then they could only be guided by a high-level infected person to launch this attack.
Higher level infected, is another name for mutants, after all, mutants have a certain intelligence, the higher the level, the higher the intelligence, it is said that the top level ten mutants, the intelligence is almost the same as that of normal people, and even the behavior is like a human being, it can be completely hidden in the human world, and it makes people shudder to think about it.
Therefore, this mutant can command the corpse group to attack the farm, then I am afraid that its IQ must not be low, at least it has independent thinking, and can even control brainless zombies......
"Qin Jian! I feel like we should get out of the farm! There must be advanced mutants around here! Xu Xin pulled Qin Jian's clothes and hurriedly said.
Qin Jian was stunned, although he had discussed this matter yesterday, and he was also afraid and nervous because of it, but this morning, the two of them had already walked out of the farm, and they had walked against the high wall for most of the day, and even killed more than a dozen zombies, all of them had made such a big battle? Why hasn't the mutant ever appeared?
Even if that thing has intelligence? Do you have to hide in the shadows and wait until the time is ripe to wipe out all the human beings?
Besides, if it's really an advanced mutant, is it still used to command hordes of corpses to attack farms? Can't you just go out in person?
Qin Jian felt that Xu Xin was making a fuss, and after his various combings, he felt that the conclusion of the mutant was not valid.
"Let's investigate the walls." Qin Jian said.
"How?" Xu Xin frowned, this wall doesn't look abnormal?
"Investigate the middle or top of the wall, in short, to know why those zombies were attracted to the wall." Qin Jian said.
Xu Xin suddenly despised it: "Hey! This wall is six meters high! There's no place where you can get your hands on, can you still climb up? ”
"You can ......." Qin Jian suddenly looked back at Xu Xin and pulled into a voice.
Xu Xin's eyes widened, as if she had guessed something, and immediately said, "You want to step on my shoulder?" ”
Qin Jian shook his head, although Xu Xin was a female man, this kind of thing would definitely not be allowed for her to do, and even if she stepped on her shoulders, she could only reach half the height of the wall, and what he wanted to investigate was the entire wall......
"You pull the car and park here." Qin Jian said.
Xu Xin sighed, and seemed to understand what Qin Jian meant.
Soon, Xu Xin drove the car over, but because there was a dirt slope under the high wall, the car could only be parked steadily, and after all, it was parked on the dirt slope, and the whole car was crooked.
But Qin Jian felt that it didn't matter, the car was parked at an angle, but it seemed to have increased a lot of "height".
Stepping on the front of the car, Qin Jian's height just reached the middle of the wall.
Right now, you can see the pits in which the walls have sunk in, as if they have been smashed, and as if they have fallen into disrepair and been blown off by the wind.
But there's nothing in these pits that attracts zombies......
Qin Jian looked left and right, and suddenly found something.
There seemed to be a wide crack in the wall not far from his right hand.
"Xu Xin, drive! Drive a little back! ”
"Oh! Can you come down first? Xu Xin looked at Qin Jian who was standing on the roof of the car and asked.
Qin Jian jumped out of the car, the car moved back a little, and he climbed up again.
This time he could get a closer look at the rift.
This crack is similar to the shape of the word "township", and the crack looks very wide, but in fact, it is difficult to put a finger in, but it is quite deep, because the crack is dark inside.
I don't know if it's the right time and place, and a warm morning sun slowly shines on the crack.
"This is?!"
The moment the rift was illuminated, Qin Jian saw something strange!
The thing was white, and some of it was just right stuffed into the cracks.
He couldn't see what it was, so he hurriedly beckoned Xu Xin to find a flashlight and an iron hook, because he couldn't pull it out with his hands.
When Xu Xin returned to the farm to pick up these two tools, he attracted the attention of Gu Xue and others.
"Wife, why are you still here?"
When Xu Xin brought back the tools, the moment Qin Jian turned around, he saw Gu Xue and the militia captain and others.
"I heard you found something on the wall, come and have a look." Gu Xue said, after all, she has always been very concerned about the investigation, not to mention that she has really found something on the wall now.
"This is outside the wall, I'm afraid you two are in danger, so I'm here to protect everyone." The militia captain also explained why they had come.
"It was supposed to be dangerous, but I killed them all." Qin Jian didn't look back when he said this.
After hearing this, the militia captain quickly turned his gaze to the zombie corpses under his feet and laughed.
The reason why he laughed was because he thought of Qin Jian's appearance in and out of the corpse group last night, and he was not even afraid of so many zombies, let alone these dozen zombies?
And it stands to reason that the man protected them yesterday, so he just said that he was protecting the man, which is really a bit unashamed.
People are many times stronger than themselves, on the contrary, they just saved people yesterday, not a single zombie was killed, and besides, saving people has not been saved......
Qin Jian shone the flashlight into the crack, and was stunned for a moment!
"How is this thing?"
"What's that?"
When Gu Xue and the others below heard Qin Jian's words, they were immediately extremely curious, and tilted their heads sideways, trying to see what was in the crack, but the height was not enough at all, and they couldn't see anything.
Qin Jian put the iron hook in, shaking his head and muttering.
"What the hell is it?" Gu Xue was so anxious that she couldn't wait to climb up and take a look.
But at this moment, someone really climbed into the car with great vigor.
"What are you doing here?" Qin Jian turned his head to look at Xu Xin and asked.
"I'm curious!" Xu Xin's answer was reasonable.
Qin Jian pursed his lips and seriously hooked the thing out with an iron hook.
"What the hell?"
After waiting for five minutes, Xu Xin whispered in his ear.
Qin Jian's pupils contracted violently, and he finally hooked out that thing!
"Pork ......"
Qin Jian took that thing and said solemnly.
"Huh?"
Everyone was dumbfounded, pork ...... How did you get into the crack in the wall?
Qin Jian jumped out of the car and took the pork and looked at it carefully.
Judging by the freshness, it should have been put in yesterday.
So who put it in?
Qin Jian frowned, looking nervous and puzzled.
Back at the farm, everyone stopped what they were busy doing and gathered in the conference room to prepare for the meeting.
"As far as I guess, yesterday's zombie attack was caused by this piece of pork."
Qin Jian threw the pork on the table and said to everyone.
"Pork?"
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this, although they had never seen a pig run, or even pork, but logically, pork and zombies attacked them, and there seemed to be no connection between them?
"Pork humans like it, and zombies may like it too, but if zombies really like it, why did they find us?" Gu Xue was the first to ask, this is exactly what most people want to ask.
Qin Jian hesitated for a moment and said: "That piece of pork is hidden in the crack of the wall, not to mention that the zombie can't reach it, even I have to use a hook to pull it out, and I don't think the zombie will be so smart, the reason why I was attracted here must be to smell the pork......"
At this time, Xu Xin stood up and replied: "The zombies just smell the pork, but they don't look for it so carefully, and as far as I know, the zombies have defective eyesight, even if they look for it, they can't find it, so I think those zombies are completely looking for it, and finally inexplicably took a human ladder and entered the farm by mistake." ”
Qin Jian nodded after hearing this, agreeing with Xu Xin's words.
But soon, he thought of something and fell into deep thought again.
