Chapter 37: The Mentally Ill (4)
Lu Xun boasts that his psychological quality is strong and comparable to that of a forensic doctor, but he is still a few levels worse than Zhao Gao...... Zhao Gao was picking through the pile of rotting corpses with a steel bar, looking down and shaking his head from time to time like a scavenger, like a ghoul, looking for food that suited his taste. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Can't this second goods smell the stench of the sky?
Lu Xun pinched his nose and stood on the side, he really didn't have the courage to get too close, these highly decomposed corpses emitted a suffocating corpse smell, fortunately it was raining heavily tonight, if it was a hot summer sunny day, these stenches could permeate half of Shanghai.
The torrential rain washed over the corpses, and the rain and corpse fluids mixed and flowed down.
Lu Xun put on the gas mask and gloves and shoe covers of the hazmat suit, and then climbed on.
Zhao Gaozheng squatted on the side and picked up a corpse with steel bars, this corpse was obviously hollowed out, and the crunchy bones could not bear the weight, and suddenly broke into several pieces, splashing a splash.
"I'm ...... What the hell are you doing? Lu Xun shrank back and frowned.
"Look at this corpse......" Zhao Gao stretched out his hand and pointed to the rotting corpse at his feet, he pulled out a severed limb, "This is a carpal bone." ”
Lu Xun squatted down, got closer to observe, and then was stunned.
"Is this a wrist?"
The bone that Zhao Gao showed him was covered with sharp barbs, and the shape was hideous, Lu Xun had never seen such a bone, but he was sure that normal creatures would never grow such bones.
"Hunter's, huh?"
"No......" Zhao Gao shook his head, he pointed to the corpse beside him, "Human." ”
Lu Xun was stunned.
"......There are many similar bones here," Zhao Gao straightened up, "Many corpses here are extremely abnormal, they all have lesions, or completely mutated tissue structures, normal creatures will not grow such deformed structures." ”
"Like the infected?"
"No, the infected are just the living dead, and they will not be much different from ordinary people in terms of basic morphological structure." Zhao Gao shook his head, "But these corpses have an organizational structure that humans don't have at all, relative to the inhabited...... I think the mutations of these corpses should be closer to xenomorphs, or hunters. ”
Lu Xun glanced down, he saw a corpse that had completely decomposed into a skeleton, half of his body was buried in the corpse pile, the skeleton had unusually long limbs, twice as long as a normal person, there were too many joints on his body to count, and there were even two slender wing-like fan bones on his back...... Isn't that the devil?
"And this." Zhao Gao leaned over and picked up a bone and handed it to Lu Xun.
Lu Xun hesitated for a moment and reached out to take it.
The thing was light and smooth, and it looked like a triangle, and Lu Xun realized that it wasn't a biological skeleton...... He washed away the dirt that had been revealed, revealing the silvery white underneath it.
"It's an artificial bone, made of titanium." Zhao Gao said, "Most of the corpses here have traces of cutting with instruments. ”
Lu Xun is getting more and more confused, what the hell is going on? Why is there a pile of corpses here? Who are these people who have been killed? Who killed them? Why are there mutations in corpses? All kinds of questions are tangled up in my mind, like a ball of yarn, and I can't figure it out at all.
Lu Xun estimates that there are at least a thousand corpses here, but the question is where did so many people come from? The only remaining survivors in the entire city of Shanghai are in the academy, except for the safe zone, the rest of the place is a world of zombies and hunters, there are no survivors at all, and there is no place in Shanghai that can accommodate a thousand people to survive.
A thousand people were killed, and it was a complete massacre...... But who is the initiator of this tragedy? Zombies and hunters can't do that, humans are food in their eyes, they can't pile up food and let it rot, and the corpses here are relatively intact, and the people who die in the mouths of zombies and hunters don't have whole corpses.
It could only be human...... Just like the Mongols would pile up human heads into mountains after slaughtering cities, human beings have had this habit since ancient times.
But who are these people?
Zhao Gao stood there and pondered for a long time, then turned his head and said to Lu Xun, "Let's go, let's go back."

Zhao Gao held the steering wheel tightly, his eyes looked straight ahead, and he didn't say a word.
Lu Xun didn't speak, and the crackling rain slapped on the roof and window panes.
The Ford Raptor F150 is speeding through the torrential rain, and the visibility tonight is extremely low, and the effective range of the headlight lighting does not exceed five meters, and the dense raindrops are illuminated by the lights, like thousands of silver lines. The windshield wipers went back and forth, the rain that flowed could never be cleaned, and Lu Xun felt like he was sitting in a small boat, and there were stormy waves outside, and the huge waves crashed against the hull, and they would sink at any time.
The dark and rainy night gives people a sense of fear, which is similar to the sea in the dark night, which seems to be endless and suffocating.
The only thing that can be reassuring is the small carriage, with a small dim lamp on, which makes people warm like candlelight.
The jar with the ghoul sealed was placed in the back seat of the car and tied with a seat belt.
"Are we really the only survivors in Shanghai?" Lu Xun suddenly asked.
"What do you mean?" Zhao Gao glanced at him.
"Not long after those people died?"
Zhao Gao nodded, "In terms of the degree of decay, it will not be more than two weeks." ”
"Then two weeks ago, they were still alive." Lu Xun said, "Isn't there any other safe zone here?" Maybe there's something missing......"
"Nope." Zhao Gao shook his head, "You must know that the calculation of the number of survivors is a very serious and accurate matter, it is not a casual estimate, it needs to use a lot of manpower and material resources to investigate the surrounding area, and conduct a safety assessment, Shanghai completed this work a long time ago, the academy is the last safe zone, and other places are not suitable for human survival." ”
"So where did those people come from......
"I don't know." Zhao Gao shook his head.
"Beware!" Lu Xun suddenly pounced, "Brake!" ”
Zhao Gao was taken aback, and hurriedly stepped on the brakes, and the pickup truck slammed across the body in the middle of the road, and the tires rubbed against the road to make a sharp noise, splashing a large splash.
The car stopped, and Zhao Gao raised his head, "What are you doing?" ”
"You, you, you, you, you, you look ......ahead," Lu Xun pointed ahead, pointing ahead.
Zhao Gao looked in the direction of his finger and was stunned.
