Section 468 The Logic of Allocation of Heterogeneous Species
This practice is commonplace, any survivor can do it, and has become almost the most common civilian equipment in a chaotic world.
Zheng Xiaoyue immediately had such a thoughtββββ could it be that the murderous corpse was obtained from the survivors and then became their personal belongings?
What happened next completely dispelled the idea that had just popped up.
Some of the survivors were surrounded by the corpses. About ten people, maybe more. The shaking figures kept alternating, some people were pushed down, and some people got up from the ground. The exact number is difficult to discern. They were surrounded by murderous corpses, forming a crowded circle. The men were unarmed, with their mouths open, screaming all the time, possibly for help. But the distance was too far to hear what they were saying.
The corpses didn't pounce on them and gnaw the throats of these prey, as they usually did.
The mutated creatures appear to be in good order. They work together: some point sticks and knives at the survivors, while others rush into the crowd and tie them up with ropes.
The team got a number of binoculars from the city malls along the way, one for all the core team members and watchmen. They clearly saw these imagesββββ the murderous corpse did not simply use ropes to randomly bypass the survivors, but twisted the target's hands behind his back, firmly clasped the crossed wrists, and flexibly tied the knots.
Zheng Xiaoyue heard Luo Kuan's voice trembling: "It seems to be a sailor's knot." This knot is difficult to untie and gets tighter the more you pull it. β
A long rope connects all the survivors. One after the other, looking from afar, they look like grasshoppers tied together, but they stand and walk on their feet.
Wounds can be seen on the survivor's body and face. There were no fatal injuries that bleed, more bruises and swollen bruises. That's the effect of a gravitational blow from a close distance.
Cao Xinneng's evaluation is very real and terrifying: "These murderous corpses don't seem to intend to kill them." In my opinion, a few of them should have been caught after being knocked unconscious. What do they want to do? Gather people and take them away? β
Liu Fengping asked another question from a special angle: "Could it be that we are wrong?" I'm afraid these guys aren't some kind of murderous corpses. They should be ordinary people, normal survivors. They...... In infighting? β
It is indeed possible.
But this claim was quickly denied by everyoneββββ most striking feature of the corpses was the sharp fangs that poked out of their lips. Those two hard teeth, which grew from the upper gums and were exposed more than three centimeters, or even longer, distinguished them from ordinary humans.
Gu Kegang stared intently at everything he saw in the telescope and muttered to himself, "It looks like it's hunting." But the corpse hadn't done that before. They all grab their prey, kill them on the spot, and then tear them apart. Both humans and animals are their prey. It's unbelievable that they actually tie people with ropes, and these people are still alive...... Wait, they didn't seem to intend to kill these people in the first place. Rather, they want to take them away. These murderous corpses ...... They, what the hell are they trying to do? β
Zheng Xiaoyue pursed her lips tightly, the pink lip gloss made her look beautiful and gorgeous, and the whole person exuded a cold aura.
She remembered what Liu Tianming had said before leaving.
The world is changing, we are changing, and the zombies are changing.
Zombies can only walk awkwardly, and even balance is difficult to guarantee.
Living corpses can run, even faster than Let's Run! The tender-faced stars in "Men" who are worth a lot of money.
The corpse learned to play with a knife, learned to smash a person's head with a stick, then threw away the stick and pounced on it to bite and eat its prey.
It's clear that they've learned more and become smarter now.
They seem to be hunting, bringing their prey back to their nests. Just like the primitive people who began to germinate wisdom in ancient times, they brought back surplus wild goats and wild boars, and after adjusting and domesticating, they became domestic pigs and sheep that would never run away and pass on this slave gene to their offspring.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiaoyue shuddered.
However, will things really be as you imagined?
Or is there some other reason?
"The order goes down, no one is allowed to go out, and our current cordon is reinforced. Look close to see if there are any vehicles that can be used, and make sure that the place where the weapons and ammunition are placed is absolutely safe. Arrange double people to be in charge of guarding. β
Zheng Xiaoyue quickly made a decision: "Luo Kuan stays here to be in charge of hosting, Sister Fengping, and Brother Cao, you come with me to have a look." β
β¦β¦
The sudden change in bad weather apparently did not affect Baoji. God probably just felt unhappy about one place in Guangyuan, so he specially rained heavy snow and strong winds there.
The ground here is very dry, and it looks like it hasn't rained for a long time.
The three of them had little goal, and the twilight was covering the land, and they passed all the way along the corner of the wall without making the slightest sound.
Liu Fengping held an assault rifle in her hand, looked at Zheng Xiaoyue, who was walking in front with a graceful figure, and her eyes naturally fell on her sexy black silk 1**** and high heels, and couldn't help but show a wry smile.
"I find you especially like to wear this."
Liu Fengping's voice was very low, she pointed to the pair of black shoes on Zheng Xiaoyue's feet with a heel of more than ten centimeters, and looked a little puzzled: "Don't you feel inconvenient?" I see you've been running and jumping, especially when you're falling, and you don't even have a sound. β
The weather in Baoji is very different from that in Guangyuan. It's very hot here. When the train was halfway there, Zheng Xiaoyue changed into cool hot pants and a silk shirt. Suspenders have wide lace trims, and this sexy and beautiful outfit is nothing more than for men to see. I don't know if it is influenced by Zheng Xiaoyue's "benchmark", Yang Yanhong's dress is very similar to her, and even the waitresses in the team have a tendency to change in this direction.
And they have to wear makeup every day.
"Get used to it!"
Zheng Xiaoyue smiled: "Maybe I was born with the potential to be a model, but my life was not good, so I changed my career to become a nurse for some reason." β
This is indeed true.
I don't know why, after the outbreak of the virus, Zheng Xiaoyue especially likes this kind of extremely feminine dress. She likes revealing and sexy clothes and loves different styles of high heels. The flats and the good girl's costume seem to be forgotten in some corner together with the memories that have disappeared from the mind. The powerful ability possessed by the mutant infected body gave Zheng Xiaoyue the ability to control this type of clothing as strongly. As Liu Fengping said, she can now run on the road in high heels, except for Liu Tianming's weird and perverted speed, which is no less than anyone in the team.
Some things came out of nowhere, and she didn't know why. Of course, this is definitely not to seduce men, but to really like it, and to wear it to your own men.
The passion between men and women also needs seductive clothes to set off, and then it becomes infected, and finally explodes.
Liu Fengping shook her head and said nothing more.
Personal preference is one thing, but whether you can accept it is another. There is no need to impose your own ideas on others. This was true in peacetime, and it is still so.
β¦β¦
The night gradually became thicker, hiding the whereabouts of the murderous corpse.
They obviously don't know how to hide their existence completely. Dozens of murderous corpses walked down the road, as well as a dozen ordinary survivors caught in the middle. The sound of chaotic footsteps was heavy, and from time to time there were screams and shouts from sticks hitting the human body.
Murderous corpses can actually speak?
This is definitely not a baseless illusion, but a reality that Zheng Xiaoyue clearly heard.
"Weeks are falling."
"Step bite and wipe the layer, step dye and lie down nine to kill you."
"If you don't have a heart, you will be stupid if you don't want to lie down and slaughter first?"
The voice is messy, the pitch is mixed, and it sounds very weird. Several people followed behind the group of corpses with bated breath, and their ears strengthened by mutated cells heard the words. It's just that it's more difficult to understand, and Zheng Xiaoyue took a lot of effort to finally understand the meaning.
The vocal organs of the murderous corpse should be very different from those of humans. It may also be that their language function is not very well evolved, and there are some obstacles in thinking. Otherwise, the words that come out of their mouths will be even more coherent.
"Pace."
"Slaughtering the Nine Dead Mud."
These murderous corpses obviously understand the reason why they are too loud and cause others to covet them. It is not known if the survivor captives understood their threat, and the screams and pleading became quieter. When the sky was completely dark, the team also walked on the road for more than an hour and came to a large building with a signboard of "Jade Dragon Furniture City".
Zheng Xiaoyue and the others did not follow.
Because there's no need for that.
The first floor is full of transparent glass, and in the middle of the empty hall, there are several fires burning. Intense light illuminates everything from the inside out, and you can see the scattered piles of furniture. They were split into pieces. Several of the corpses sitting next to the fire threw wooden blocks into it, continuing the burning time.
All of this is beyond normal perception, breaking down the fixed concept of mutated organisms since the outbreak of the virus.
Zheng Xiaoyue clenched the gun in her hand. Cao Xinneng and Liu Fengping bent over and half-squatted without saying a word, silently paying attention to the movements of the murderous corpse on her left and right. It's across the road from an empty low building. Through the windows, you can see everything that is happening in the halls of Furniture City.
There should be a basement there, or a space on the second floor occupied by the corpses. They took most of the survivors they caught into the depths of darkness, where Zheng Xiaoyue couldn't see, leaving only three of them, cutting the ropes that connected them to the survivors in front of them. They stood alone in the middle of the hall, surrounded by a dozen hideous-looking corpses with baring fangs.
