Chapter 31 Chai Fang, Lu Tianming Go Home
There is a large group of children playing in the playground of the village school, eagles catching chickens, throwing sandbags, skipping rope and so on, even if the world is in chaos, the children are still innocent and have smiles written on their faces.
At the well in the northwest corner of the playground, a few women were washing clothes, seven or eight old men were squatting under the big locust tree smoking dry cigarettes, and there was a chess stall, surrounded by people, arguing about the game and enjoying the rhythm of it.
Where is this like survival in the last days? It is completely a quiet, safe and peaceful daily life of the people!
Land Rover walked under the flagpole and stood there blankly, seeing his father Lu Tianming tied there, still twisting his body and roaring with his rotten mouth open. The village chief walked over, coughed twice, spit out a mouthful of phlegm, patted Land Rover's shoulder and said, "Huzi, don't be sad, if your father is not infected, I definitely hope you can live well......"
"Village chief, I want to take my dad away." Land Rover made it clear and said, "I don't want him to be tied up here, like an animal for people to laugh at." ”
"Your father is infected, and if you don't control it, he'll bite......" the village chief was puzzled.
"I know this, I can control him at home, and ensure that he will not leave the door of my house for half a step, and he will not hurt other villagers."
At Land Rover's repeated requests, the village chief finally agreed to release him.
In order to ensure the safety of the villagers, the village chief had Lu Tianming's mouth glued with wide tape, so that it could not bite people and lose its maximum aggression and source of infection.
After the five or six old men glued their hands and feet, they uncovered the ropes on the flagpole, tied Lu Tianming's hands and feet, and tied his whole body, Lu Tianming lay on the playground and kept squirming his body, like a grumpy maggot with hormones. Well, the metaphor fails again.
Under the command of the village chief, these old men put Lu Tianming, who had lost his aggression and mobility, on a three-wheeled cart and let the Land Rover push the cart home.
The wheels of the wooden small board car rolled on the cement road that was washed clean by the rain, and the third uncle dragged the hemp rope that bound Lu Tianming's body and followed the side of the board car, and Land Rover pushed the car and soon returned home.
"Uncle, Land Rover, are you back?" Sophie heard the commotion and walked out of the side room.
"I brought my dad back," Land Rover said, wiping a fine bead of sweat from his forehead, "Even though he's turned into a zombie, I don't want to put him on the playground for people to laugh at." Let's put him in the woodhouse first. ”
"Need help?" Sophie asked as she walked down the steps.
"No need, I'll come with the third uncle."
With the help of the third uncle, Lu Rover carried Lu Tianming, who was still restless, to the firewood room. The firewood room was full of firewood and sundries, but it was cleaned up and didn't look messy and crowded. They tied Lu Tianming to a large wooden stake in the middle of the firewood room with an iron chain, and Lu Tianming looked like a dog kept in a pen. Looking at his father's pitiful appearance, Land Rover couldn't bear it, but there was nothing he could do.
In fact, Land Rover's deeper idea is to hope that one day the surviving scientists of mankind can develop a cure for this zombie virus, and then he can bring his father back to life. Of course, he didn't say this idea to anyone, because it seemed like a fool's dream, but Land Rover felt that people can't do without expectations, even if the chance is slim, only one percent hope, they must be treated with 100% preparation and hard work.
Then, Land Rover wanted to help Lu Tianming remove the wide tape that had been wrapped around his mouth several times. Land Rover stretched out his hand, Lu Tianming shook his head angrily, and then the third uncle went around to the back and hugged Lu Tianming's head, and said, "Tear off the tape." ”
Land Rover slowly pulled off the tape and pulled it to the last layer, although it was very slow and the amplitude was very small, but just listening to the sound of "poof", the skin on Lu Tianming's left face was glued down.
The cells and molecules in the corpse have mutated, and the original human skin tissue has also degenerated by 60%, and the so-called face is just a mask stuck to the stiff shell.
Lu Tianming's face was torn off but did not bleed much, and it quickly solidified, the scarlet hardened tissue looked like burnt plastic, and a sour smell came to his nose.
"Dad! I'm sorry to disfigure you......" Land Rover stood up, carrying the tape covered in skin tissue, and whispered apologetic.
"Roar! Oh! Oh! ……”
Lu Tianming grinned, his upper and lower teeth gurgling, and his head stretched out in an attacking motion.
"Let's go, Huzi, we are standing in the firewood room, and your father is not restless, and he has been thinking about eating people...... third uncle advised.
Land Rover nodded, and had to walk out of the firewood room with the third uncle and cover the creaky wooden door.
Land Rover's knowledge of zombies comes from the game forum. After mutating into a zombie, the creature's heartbeat has stopped, the body does not produce heat, the zombie bites people or livestock comes from the instinct of the body, and the ** they devour will not replenish energy. Because they don't need the most basic metabolism of living organisms at all, the energy that controls their nervous system and behavior comes from the production of the internal organs of the body. The ** flora in the corpse reaches a balance to ensure that it adapts to the surrounding environment.
The only thing zombies need like humans is oxygen, and their breathing is not for the beating of the heart, nor for the normal functioning of the brain, but for the best bacteria, and the bacteria and viruses need oxygen to maintain destruction. The main consumption of the zombie's body is the evaporation of water, so the zombie cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time and can survive for half a year in a cold environment, which is a conservative estimate.
However, it must be noted that the re-mutation and re-evolution of zombies, and the virus will strengthen certain characteristics with a large number of reproduction, which also makes the life cycle of zombies very sustainable and unstable. If this virus has a strong ability to evolve itself in reproduction, then how long zombies can live will be the biggest mystery......
Excluding Lu Tianming, who was controlled in the firewood room, there were no zombies in the entire Lujia Village, it was simply a paradise-like existence.
Probably because of the heavy rain last night, the weather is not very hot today, but the wind is very gentle, and the three mountains in the distance are full of greenery, and behind the mountains are vast mountains and primeval forests.
These are special times, and Land Rover must be prepared to survive for the long haul. At noon, the third uncle and third aunt went back to make lunch, and Sophie was also busy in the kitchen. Jiang Xiaowen's condition improved significantly after drinking traditional Chinese medicine, and she had already gotten out of bed and played with Lele while basking in the sun in the yard.
Land Rover began to check what he had at home. Two cabinets contain soybeans and corn stockpiled in the spring, as well as a small amount of peanuts. In the kitchen, there are half a tank of white flour, half a tank of grain flour, 30 catties of rice, and more than 10 catties of cured bacon. There are two large black blankets in the corner of the doorway, filled with kimchi. That's all the food in the house.
The Land Rover's family does not raise livestock, only a litter of chickens, which is a big shortcoming in terms of meat, and it is obviously not advisable to kill chickens and take eggs.
Happily, don't forget that there are a lot of meat on the excavators and SUVs at the entrance of the village! This is beyond the reach of other villagers' families, but of course, Land Rover has a careful idea of secretly transporting food back home, so that no villager knows about it and makes long-term plans. Of course, this is selfishness, the end is coming, but it is not the time to carry forward the spirit of Lei Feng, self-preservation and survival is the king.
