Chapter 304: Dawn Comes
There is no moonlight, no stars, there is endless darkness. The leather jacket was burned by the fire, emitting a pungent stench, and in the faint light of the fire, the earthy weeds could be seen swaying gently in the breeze.
At this moment, how much everyone wishes they were these weeds, with countless companions, and they didn't have to worry about being swallowed and dragged underground by the terrible mutant earthworms.
Thinking that Xiang Zheng was bitten by a mutant earthworm and dragged half of his body into the ground, everyone felt a chill in their hearts, wondering, was Xiang Zheng eaten alive to death, or was he buried alive and suffocated? If it wasn't Xiang Zheng that the mutant earthworms attacked at that time, but them......
Just thinking about that scene makes people get goosebumps all over their bodies, and their hearts tremble!
When the mutant earthworm spit out its chewed coat and retracted into the ground, there was silence around the rock, but there was a "shuddering" sound from other places, and you didn't have to think about it to know that it was a mutant earthworm breaking through the soil and leaning out of its slippery body to search for them.
And the rock where they stayed had been searched by a mutant earthworm, and it was safe for the time being, and everyone was a little more steady, but they were still frightened, deeply worried that the mutant earthworm would turn around and search again.
"It's enough for the spicy next door, and now even the damn little earthworm has mutated into monsters to hunt us, why do I think we humans have suddenly fallen from the top of the food chain to the bottom!" Zhang Yifei said indignantly.
Hearing him say this, everyone nodded in agreement, in the last days, human beings are too small.
"Xiao Feifei, have you encountered other mutated animals before?" Situ Meng asked curiously.
"Of course I did!"
Zhang Yifei nodded heavily, "A bloodthirsty bat as big as a cat, a mutated locust that can swallow a person whole, and an ant about the size of a dog cub." Damn, these things are much more terrifying than zombies, if it weren't for the fact that a few of us have a big life, and Lao Ling is strong enough and perverted enough, we would have gone to the West Heaven to discuss Buddhism with Rulai. ”
"Goodong~"
Thinking about Zhang Yifei's words, the images of mutant bats, grasshoppers, and ants were immediately formed in everyone's minds, and they all couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and their eyes trembled violently.
After the disaster struck, they lived in hiding and fearing in a building in Penang City, until they learned that there were more than 200,000 survivors in Phantom City, and they got a bus to set off from Penang City and went straight to Phantom City.
So in addition to knowing that there are zombies running all over the world, they don't know at all that there are many animals in this world that have mutated into terrible predators.
……
In the early hours of the morning, the temperature dropped a lot, and the breeze blew, which made people shiver.
Everyone was more or less sleepy, one person yawned, everyone yawned, but everyone tried to open their eyes, not daring to sleep, and the "shuddering" sound of the mutated earthworms breaking through the soil around them made them dare not relax their vigilance for a moment.
Finding that Tang Xiaomo was so sleepy that she began to doze off, Ling Xiu directly hugged her in his arms and let her fall asleep sweetly, anyway, as long as he was vigilant around.
Xue Nan looked at Ling Xiu and Tang Xiaomo in a daze, both women, she was very envious of Tang Xiaomo.
She always thought that a man who was willing to spend a lot of money for himself was proof of love, but now she knows that love is very simple, it is to guard, that is, to give a shoulder and hug that can be relied on when needed. Love is a powerful sense of security, even in such a life-threatening situation, it is still possible to sleep peacefully in the arms of men.
"Xue Meinu, if you are sleepy and want to sleep, go to sleep, brother help you protect the Fa, if something really happens, I will wake you up as soon as possible." Zhang Yifei said to her suddenly.
Xue Nan was slightly stunned, and was about to reply, but Yang Zhihua took the lead in vetoing: "No, if the mutant earthworm suddenly attacks us, even if we wake people up at the first time, the reaction will become much slower, which is quite dangerous." ”
Xue Nan, who originally wanted to refuse Zhang Yifei's kindness, heard this, and immediately defended: "The danger is also my own business, I am sleepy, I want to sleep." Then he sat down with Zhang Yifei, "Yifei, is it okay to lend your shoulder?" ”
Zhang Yifei glanced at Yang Zhihua, whose face was a little ugly, shrugged his shoulders, made an innocent expression, then turned his head and chuckled and said to Xue Nan: "It's an honor!" ”
Yang Zhihua didn't say anything more, but kept a close watch around.
The clothes were burned one by one, but at this moment, Zheng Tianchen suddenly pointed ahead, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help himself: "Change...... Mutant earthworms, that ...... There's a mutated earthworm crawling out of the ground......"
Ling Xiu looked up, and under the faint light, there was indeed a sturdy figure the size of a bucket stretching and shrinking, squirming and crawling forward, and its heavy body rubbed against the ground, making a "huh" sound.
It was indeed a mutated earthworm, more than five meters long, and the viscous liquid covered on its surface glowed white under the light of the fire, and its whole body was iron-gray, like a creature crawling out of hell, full of evil and terrifying aura.
The group didn't dare to come out for a moment, their hands and feet were cold, their eyes were unblinking, and they watched the mutated earthworm disappear into the darkness, and then broke through the soil and slowly burrowed into the ground.
******
After five or six hours of mental and physical torture, the dawn finally came. The sky was getting brighter, and the world seemed to be spat out of its mouth again by a pitch-black monster.
The corpse of the mutant earthworm that was killed by Tang Xiaomo with a laser gun was still lying quietly on the ground, and the other end was still in the soil. Grely's corpse seemed to merge with it, pus and black blood dripping all over the floor, and it was impossible to tell whether it was from Greely's corpse or from the corpse of a mutant earthworm.
"Saved, we saved!" Li Hengliang shouted.
"yes, we can finally get out of this hellish place, mutant earthworms don't come out during the day." Zheng Tianchen echoed.
The two of them said this, and their faces were still filled with excited expressions for the rest of their lives, but they never took the lead to walk down the rock.
And Yang Zhihua, who swore last night to guarantee absolute safety during the day, also remained silent, everyone, look at me, I look at you, the atmosphere became extremely embarrassing for a while, and finally avoided each other's eyes.
Ling Xiu snorted in a complicated way, woke Tang Xiaomo up, and then jumped off the rock without saying a word.
