Chapter 12, Chapter 18. Unidentified creature
Xiao Wang was startled by the sudden sound of thunder in the sky, and he knew that it was extremely dangerous for the people in the field to be on or under the trees, and if he didn't get it right, he would be struck by lightning if he didn't get it right, so he hurriedly turned around and wanted to climb down the tree.
But when Xiao Wang just turned his head, he was suddenly stunned, and he saw a human-shaped thing the same color as the bark of a tree lying on a branch in front of him.
The human-shaped thing is exactly the same color as the trunk of a tree, even the folds in the bark are the same, and it looks almost like a thick branch born on this big tree.
Xiao Wang was stunned under extreme shock, and he was horrified to see that the face of this humanoid object had a pair of eyes like ordinary people, but the pupils of these eyes were blood-red, and he was staring at himself coldly at this time, like a fierce beast staring at its prey, ready to attack.
Xiao Wang broke out in a cold sweat when he was stared at by this humanoid object, and suddenly he reacted, and he opened his mouth to shout, but it was too late.
At the same time when Xiao Wang opened his mouth and was about to shout, the humanoid object suddenly stretched out its trunk-like arm, and four extremely sharp fingers slammed into Xiao Wang's throat.
The hand that the humanoid object inserted into Xiao Wang's throat pinched and pulled hard, and there was only a crisp "click" sound, Xiao Wang's neck was pinched alive, and his head suddenly left his body, fell under the tree, and rolled down into the grass under the tree.
The humanoid object held the headless corpse of Xiao Wang, who was about to fall. Leaning the corpse against a thick branch in the tree, he skewered it under the tree in a few strokes, and then quickly left.
Zheng Tao and the others waited for Xiao Wang to come for a long time, they were a little impatient, Zheng Tao frowned and said: "This Xiao Wang, it takes so long to have diarrhea, do you want to be lazy and not work." ”
"Who knows, he usually likes to be lazy and does very little work, Brother Zheng. You need to reflect this problem with the manager. Another maintenance technician, Xiao Liu, said unhappily.
Zheng Tao didn't answer Xiao Liu's words, he vaguely felt that something was wrong, it didn't take so long to have a stomach, it was almost half an hour, such a long time. His legs couldn't bear to squat, so he said to the three warriors on the side, "I feel a little strange. Do you want to go over and have a look? Xiao Wang, don't be in danger. ”
"In danger? But there's no change in that direction. One of the warriors said strangely.
"I don't feel quite right, so I'd go over and take a look." The topless warrior said.
The other two fighters hurriedly said, "Ah Jian, let's go over together." ”
"No, you two are on guard on the highway, if there is any situation, get in the car immediately, and I'll go over by myself." Don't worry, I have a gun, and if I'm in danger, I'll run away immediately. The shirtless warrior said with a smile.
This soldier's name is Wu Jian, and when he was in the army before, others called him Daring Jian. He was so bold that according to several soldiers who knew him well, Wu Jian dared to spend the night alone in a wild grave pile on the mountain.
Wu Jian took the Bayi-bar assault rifle with the bayonet on it, walked to the side of the road, jumped off the roadbed, and slowly walked in the direction that Xiao Wang had just run over.
The fields beneath the roadbed have been impossible to take care of since the end of the world, and the various thatches have grown half a man's height by this time, and if anyone squatted in them, they might not be able to find it.
Wu Jian's eyes widened, cautiously, step by step, walked forward step by step, walked out seventy or eighty meters, and did not see Xiao Wang's figure, he also felt a little strange, according to reason, Xiao Wang could not run further.
Wu Jian looked around, he felt that Xiao Wang should not be moving forward, so he turned back and walked back, just a few steps away, he suddenly saw a few big trees a few meters to his left, among which there seemed to be an object shaped like a human head on the ground under the front tree, but it was partially blocked by weeds, and it was not very real.
Out of curiosity, Wu Jian took a few steps forward, and when he looked at it again, he was taken aback, he saw that the thing on the ground was a human head, a bloody human head, and he saw clearly, this head seemed to be Xiao Wang, a repair mechanic.
Wu Jian walked a few steps quickly to the side of the human head, squatted down to take a look, and found that the human head was broken from the neck, and the fracture was not smooth, not like a wound caused by a sharp weapon, but a bit like it was torn off from the body.
What can have so much strength to tear off a person's neck, Wu Jian immediately thought of the mutated zombie, thinking of this, he hurriedly got up, raised his pistol and looked around nervously, but the surroundings were very quiet, except for the "rustling" sound of the wind blowing through the thatch, there was nothing else.
Suddenly there was a thunderstorm in the sky, Rao is Wu Jian was bold, and he was also shocked by the sudden sound of thunder, after the thunder, there was a gust of wind, this gust of wind was very strong, and even several big trees around Wu Jian were blown up and swayed slightly, and the branches and leaves on the trees were even more "whooshing".
Wu Jian didn't find anything, and his eyes were almost unable to open due to the strong wind, he looked at the head of Xiao Wang on the ground, couldn't help but sigh softly, and was about to turn around and leave, when suddenly, there was a strange sound behind him, followed by a "poof", which seemed to be the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Wu Jian was shocked, and immediately raised his gun and turned around, he saw that there was another topless corpse on the ground, and it was a headless corpse, of course, Wu Jian immediately saw it clearly, and judged from his pants that this headless corpse belonged to Xiao Wang.
However, questions also arise, this headless corpse obviously fell from a tree, why is Xiao Wang's body on a tree.
Wu Jian looked up at the big tree a few times, and then looked at the headless corpse on the ground a few times, Wu Jian found that there were some green fruits exposed in the pants pocket of the headless corpse, Wu Jian understood why Xiao Wang went to the tree, it was estimated that he went to pick the green fruit on the tree, so why did he die, even his head fell off, you don't have to think about it, Xiao Wang must have been attacked by an unknown creature on the tree, and it must be a mutated monster.
Thinking of this, Wu Jian raised his gun and looked at the tree, but after looking at it for a while, he didn't find anything abnormal, it seems that even if there is a mutated monster, it may have already run away.
At this time, it was raining again in the sky, and it was heavy in an instant, and Wu Jian didn't want to stay here longer, so he hurriedly turned around and ran back.
"It's raining, why hasn't Ah Jian come back yet? Something can't happen to him, right? One of the warriors said anxiously.
Another soldier took a few steps to the side of the road and said, "Why don't we go over and have a look?" ”
Before the warrior could answer, Zheng Tao said loudly: "Don't go over, he's back, I saw him." ”
There was a figure in the thatched bushes on the other side of the roadbed running quickly, and everyone could see it clearly, it was Wu Jian who was naked, but his expression seemed to be a little panicked, and he was the only one, Xiao Wang did not follow along.
Wu Jian quickly ran onto the road, and everyone didn't care about the heavy rain at this time, they all surrounded together, Zheng Tao asked anxiously: "What happened, didn't you find Xiao Wang?" ”
"I found Xiao Wang." Wu Jian gasped and said, "But he has become a corpse, or a headless corpse, and his head has been torn off his neck by something." ”
Zheng Tao and the others were all taken aback when they heard this, and hurriedly asked what was going on, but Wu Jian couldn't say what exactly happened, but only speculated that Xiao Wang might have been attacked by some kind of mutated monster.
As the rain became heavier and heavier, Zheng Tao asked another mechanic and a soldier to drive the car they had come, while he drove one of the large trucks that had been repaired, and an anti-aircraft machine gun was towed behind it.
The three cars drove slowly in the direction of Pingshan Town, and they didn't know that in a thatched bush under the roadbed, a pair of blood-red eyes were watching them slowly leave. (To be continued......)
