Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Strange Little Mountain Village-The Banyan Tree of Flesh and Blood!!
On the outskirts of J City, a small village leaning on the mountains and forests.
Yun Feng and Liu Wei stood in front of a cave, and the entire entrance of the cave was blocked from bottom to top by something that looked like a banyan tree, which looked like a living thing, which looked weird and terrifying.
Rao is Yunfeng's language skills are okay, but he can't describe the terrifying scene in front of him in words, which is a kind of weirdness and madness formed by the twisting and entanglement of a pile of human deformed remains.
The torso of the tree must have been a human, but the limbs and body are distorted, and the appearance of a human can only be faintly seen, but the head has not changed. Vivid faces are embedded in the surface of the tree. Constantly squirming, his face was desperate and fearful, and he seemed to be constantly wailing.
The dead human bodies, their distorted bodies and limbs twisted into each other, looked as if they had fused. Some of the nerves and blood vessels are like growing branches, bursting out of the body and becoming thick and long, hanging like the aerial roots of a banyan tree.
Some of them had their palms through another person's thighs, and some had their heads and necks sticking out of another person's abdomen...... Weird, evil, and chaotic, it forms a huge human monster that looks like a banyan tree.
And the faces of these people, still intact, grew on the trunks of the trees, and their lifeless faces, and their eyes were densely opened, as if they were still alive.
Looking at the terrifying scene in front of them, which could only appear in hell, several team members couldn't help but vomit, only Yun Feng and Liu Wei stood in front of the cave in a daze, looking at this hell on earth.
"Professor, this ..... What the hell is it?"
Yun Feng swore that he had never seen such a weird and disgusting thing in his life, including in all the movies, and would not describe such an evil scene.
Liu Wei didn't know how to answer, it was beyond his knowledge, but he still reluctantly searched for the expertise in his mind and gave a guess.
"The cloud team, this may be a creature that feeds on all human bodies, blood vessels and nerves, like the aerial roots, body and limbs of the banyan tree, which is the trunk of the banyan tree. And these heads, it seems, are stomata on the surface of the trunk. You see, the trunk of the tree is still oozing with a black rotting liquid, which is the liquid that this creature transports nutrients. ”
Liu Wei can only barely explain how the creature in front of him came into being by synthesizing his existing knowledge of botany and biology.
This morning, Yun Feng received a report that people from a small mountain village had disappeared for a week, but no matter how they investigated, they were not found. Just this morning, three villagers who went into the mountains to pick wild fruits found this cave, one of them was stunned by the scene in front of them, and the other two were also frightened, so they picked up the unconscious person on the spot and ran back to the village, and then the village reported to the top.
Everyone didn't dare to deal with such a thing, and they didn't know how to deal with it, as soon as Yun Feng received the notice, he rushed over with Liu Wei.
"Village chief, look at the people in the trees, are they missing from the village?"
Yun Feng asked as usual.
And the old village chief standing behind Yun Feng was about to faint, and the two young people next to him supported him so that he would not fall. But the two young men's legs were also trembling, their faces were pale, and they were also holding on to the churning in their stomachs to prevent them from throwing up again.
"Yes, that's the second girl, that's Lao Sun, that's Lao Li, they're all from the village!
The old village chief raised his hand tremblingly, and pointed to the faces that grew on the trees one by one, not long ago, these people were still alive, but now they have become such monsters.
"You help the village chief to go down and rest, don't disclose the things here, don't talk about the family of the deceased. ”
Yun Feng looked solemnly at the two young people who were holding the existence, and said with majesty and command.
"We know it, and we don't dare to talk nonsense. ”
When the two young men heard Yun Feng's words, they breathed a long sigh of relief, and immediately picked up the old village chief and left this hellish scene.
"Professor, do you think there is a microorganism similar to a virus or bacteria in this creature, which has the possibility of infection?"
Yun Feng has experienced such a thing, he was bitten by a dark werewolf, infected with dark matter, and finally transformed into a non-human. He is relatively lucky, with the help of Zhao Yang, as well as his own beliefs, although he has transformed into a monster, he is a holy silver moon werewolf, and everything is not so difficult to accept.
But these people in front of them, such a tragic situation, if there is really a microorganism that can cause this disease and can be transmitted from person to person, it will be a catastrophe.
"Very possibly. ”
Liu Wei said with certainty.
"Why do you say that?"
When Yun Feng heard this, his heart immediately sank.
"Team Yun, you see, the exposed skin of these people is swollen and ulcerated to varying degrees, and where these people's bodies touch, the skin seems to have proliferated and fused together. It's all about being infected with some kind of microorganism, the body's immune system is destroyed, and before death, there is a large-scale infection, which is what it is now. Moreover, I have a bold guess about how so many people got together and how they came to be the way they are. ”
Liu Wei is worthy of being an authority on biology, and in a short period of time, he has judged so much information.
"Professor, please. ”
Yun Feng was ready for an even bigger impact.
"Team Cloud, I suspect that after these people get sick, the immune system is destroyed early in the course of the disease, so there is a large-scale skin infection. These infected people, because of the massive ulceration of their skin, according to the experience of dealing with the plague in such a remote village in the past, these people will hide away from the crowd for fear of being humanely destroyed. And these people belong to the same village, so I guess they will hide together in the same place, which is the cave in front of them. ”
"And in the later stages of the disease, I suspect that the nervous system will be destroyed, and these people will lose their minds as human beings and attack each other, and in this crazy mutual attack, everyone will slowly die. In this way, the bodies of these people will stay in the same place, and under the action of this microorganism, the skin, nerves, and blood vessels of the dead person will continue to grow, connecting all people's bodies, and finally forming the appearance of the present. ”
Everyone present heard Liu Wei's explanations and guesses. His face instantly became extremely ugly, because he came in a hurry, he only wore a mask and gloves, and the scene was only briefly disinfected. If this kind of microorganism does exist on site, then not everyone on site will not be spared.
Those present were elite investigators and, to some extent, were not afraid of death. But after death, it is better to become like this in front of you, it is better to burn yourself with a fire. The most terrifying thing is that I don't know if these heads in front of me still have a certain consciousness.
Everyone looked at Liu Wei in a daze.
Yun Feng let out a long sigh, as if he was prepared for something, took out the phone, and dialed Yun Xianming's number.
"Feng'er, are you coming back for dinner in the evening, there is something I just want to discuss with you. ”
Yun Xianming was sitting in the study at this time, studying the notebook, and he was going to wait for Yun Feng to come back and discuss the specific plans for the future together.
Yun Feng smiled bitterly.
"Grandpa, I'm afraid I won't be able to go back today. There was a Mega Emergency and I applied for the highest level of lockdown, with a range of twenty kilometers, starting immediately. ”
Yun Feng had no choice, if Liu Wei's guess was true, then once this microorganism spread, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Highest level? are you sure? What the hell is going on. You must know that once the highest level of blockade is activated, not only will no one be allowed to enter or leave, but if the situation deteriorates, the commander has the right to destroy everything within the blockade area with high-heat incendiary bombs. ”
Yun Xianming was taken aback, there was a special emergency, and it was still biological, and it would be a catastrophe if it didn't work.
"Grandpa, I'm sure! I'll pass it on to you later, so please give the order now. ”
After Yun Feng said this, he was actually ready to sacrifice, and everyone on the scene, when they heard Yun Feng's words, they were also immediately silent, and they also understood what the special blockade meant.
"I see, take care of yourself. I grant you full authority over this matter, and you have at your disposal all the resources you need. I will not give the final order until the last moment. Feng'er, grandpa is proud of you. ”
After speaking, Yun Xianming hung up the phone.
Yun Feng slowly put down the phone, looked around at all the people on the scene, and said sonorously: "No matter what the situation is, we will definitely fight until the last moment." Once someone becomes like that, then I will personally give him a hard time. ”
