Chapter Seventy-Eight: Zombie Infighting
When they had finished deliberating, they returned to their respective places and went about their own business.
Yan Shao and his wife just returned to the house and folded their clothes, Xu Xiaoxiao and Xiao Ran sat on the sofa, wiping the metal baseball bat in their hands, and tightly wound the loose wire at the end of the stick, while Xiao Ran adjusted the modified crossbow in his hand to ensure that its performance was in the most perfect state.
Zhang Ning and Lu Yu were lazily slumped on the sofa, looking at the half bucket of rainwater in the center of the living room.
After coming out of the bedroom, Zhang Ning immediately asked Lu Yu and them to feed themselves rainwater again, and took the initiative to bring the rope.
After experiencing last night's rain, although he was embarrassed to pee his pants, Zhang Ning did feel that his physical condition had been greatly improved, and he even felt like a dragon and a tiger.
Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of the free time and drink all the remaining rainwater to see if anything would happen.
But the strange thing is that when Lu Yu tied him up and poured the rain into his mouth again, he didn't have the uncontrollable instinctive reaction that he had last night.
"Why doesn't this water smell anymore?"
Zhang Ning looked at the cup in Lu Yu's hand with a puzzled look and asked strangely.
Lu Yu also looked at the water cup in his hand, the rain in the cup was clear and translucent, without a trace of impurities, and it looked no different from what he gave Zhang Ning to drink last night.
"Weird? I haven't touched the water, so why don't you drink more? ”
Lu Yu handed the cup to Zhang Ning's mouth and poured a whole glass of water into Zhang Ning's stomach, but this tease who was tied to the chair just smashed it and smashed it, and still didn't have any reaction.
"Is it ......expired?"
Zhang Ning whispered that after he drank this cup of rainwater, he did not have any other reactions except that his stomach was a little swollen.
"Eh, wait a minute, there's a reaction......"
Zhang Ning's face suddenly became solemn, and he closed his eyes, as if he was carefully feeling the changes in his body.
"What's the reaction? Tell me about ......."
Lu Yu's face was happy, and he also came to Zhang Ning curiously and looked at it carefully.
At this moment, Zhang Ning's buttocks were raised, and a earth-shattering fart came out of it, Lu Yu's face turned green in a flash, and he hurriedly covered his nose and took three steps back, his mouth full of scolding his mother.
"Hehe, I'm sorry, Brother Yu, help me untie it, I want to get on a tuba ......"
In this way, the two of them, who had been busy for a while, finally determined that this half bucket of rain had no effect on Zhang Ning, and Lu Yu had no choice but to give up, Ge You generally lay on the sofa, and the expression on his face was uncertain.
Just when everyone was idle, Shao Xiuqi, who was originally folding clothes in the bedroom, suddenly ran out in a panic and said to everyone.
"Come and see, those zombies downstairs are starting to fight!"
Lu Yu and Zhang Ning, who were still paralyzed on the sofa, suddenly came to their senses, rushed to the window first, and looked curiously downstairs, the girls' movements were a little slower, but they also followed to the window one after another.
"It's a mess, I can't see clearly."
Zhang Ning squinted his eyes, and his neck was stretched out.
This can't be blamed on him, Zhang Ning's eyesight was relatively poor, it was myopia, and in the days before the catastrophe, he had to wear glasses to be able to live a normal life.
But now, the pair of black-rimmed glasses that have accompanied him for many years have disappeared as early as when he fell from a height, so Zhang Ning can only forcibly adapt to the days without glasses.
It is also strange to say that Zhang Ning, who was originally more than 600 degrees of myopia, could not see the zombies outside the community clearly, but after drinking a lot of rain yesterday, he was surprised to find that his vision no longer seemed to be as blurry as before, and it was roughly estimated that the degree of myopia may have dropped to about 200 degrees.
"Here, Brother Zhang Ning!"
Zhang Ning, who had already leaned out of the window with most of his body, suddenly felt that the corners of his clothes seemed to be ripped off, and when he looked back, he found that Xiao Ran was carrying a monocular, which was struggling to be placed behind him.
"Xiao Ran is awesome, and this professional equipment."
Zhang Ning screamed excitedly, this was the sleepiness that came to send the pillow, and quickly adjusted the monoculars a few times, pouting his ass and observing.
"These zombies seem to be biting and devouring each other."
Lu Yu, who had been standing by the window for a while, was the first to speak.
"No, I remember these things, I just like to chase the living and gnaw it, and it doesn't seem to be going to attack the same kind, why did I change sex all of a sudden?"
Uncle Ni on the side also spoke, and the old man came to the window at some point, and he also squinted at the zombies in the distance.
"Is it because they're so hungry that they can't eat people all the time, so they have to attack their own kind?"
Xu Xiaoxiao blinked, put his index finger against his chin, and muttered to himself.
"It's disgusting......"
Shao Xiuqi looked at the chaos outside the community for a while, and her face was pale, and she seemed to be frightened by the scene of broken limbs and legs, eating each other.
"Don't look at it, let's fold our clothes."
Yan Yan Ben hugged the woman, glanced out of the window with palpitations, and gave way to the window.
Xu Xiaoxiao saw the two retreating, so he moved two steps to the left and stood beside Lu Yu.
"There is a certain possibility, after all, zombies have always been in a state of activity, and they have been consuming physical strength, and from a scientific point of view, if there is consumption, they must need to be replenished."
"Flesh and blood should be the supply of zombies, so zombies will chase after the living to eat, which may be a self-replenishment instinct driven by the virus."
Lu Yu analyzed step by step, his mouth kept opening and closing up and down, but his eyes never left the zombie group outside the community.
"But why don't the zombies eat each other in the first place, but wait until they're hungry? Could it be that human flesh and blood are more attractive to them? ”
There was silence for a while, everyone guessing the truth in their hearts, but none of them dared to be sure of the correctness of their assumptions.
"Oh, that's exciting, on! Hammer him, right! Pick out his eyes! Well done......"
At this moment, Zhang Ning, who had been observing the zombies with a telescope, trembled, and a burst of cheers came from his mouth.
"What do you see?"
Lu Yu looked helpless, stretched out his left hand, opened his five fingers slightly, and slapped Zhang Ning's buttocks.
"Hey, Brother Yu, come and take a look, it's like a wilderness version of octagon cage fighting, not to mention how exciting it is!"
Zhang Ning touched his buttocks, and didn't seem to mind Lu Yu interrupting his viewing, and warmly invited Lu Yu to come and take a look.
"Oh? Octagon cage fighting? ”
Lu Yu suddenly became interested, and put his eyes in front of the observation mirror of the telescope, but he did not pout his ass like Zhang Ning, but half-squatted, looking much more normal.
From the binoculars, Lu Yu clearly saw that there was a scuffle in the zombie group outside the community.
After dozens of days of infection changes, the skin on the zombies' heads has obviously dried up a lot, most of the hair on their heads has fallen out, and the scalp is tightly attached to the skull, which looks terrifying.
But what attracted Lu Yu's attention was not the ugly appearance of the zombies, but the zombies who were significantly taller than the surrounding ones.
The zombies were also tearing and gnawing at their fellow species, but unlike their weaker counterparts, they had very little shriveled on their bodies, and looked more like humans who had just been infected.
Although the clothes on their bodies were also tattered, the toughness of their skin seemed to be much higher, Lu Yu noticed that the arm of one of the tall zombies was bitten by several short zombies, but they did not tear off any flesh and blood, on the contrary, these short zombies who offended the tall zombies were torn by the tall zombies and took off their heads.
I saw the tall zombie holding the head of one of the short zombies, opening its big mouth and biting towards the nose, and after a few clicks, the sharp teeth bit the facial bones of the skull, and the black substance inside flowed out.
The tall zombie shook its nose, as if sensing the black substance flowing out, and when it stretched out its tongue, it stabbed into the skull and began to suck.
Through the binoculars, Lu Yu could even see the expression of enjoyment on the face of the tall zombie, as if what he was holding at the moment was not a disgusting head, but a coconut full of refreshing and delicious coconut water.
"It's disgusting, what kind of octagonal cage is this, it's completely a food show......"
Lu Yu stood up and said a very cold joke.
"Don't you see those tall guys?"
Zhang Ning seemed to be unsatisfied, and asked excitedly by dragging Lu Yu.
"I saw a tall zombie who drank the head of a short zombie as a coconut......"
"It's not this, didn't you see two tall zombies tearing each other?"
Zhang Ning hurriedly said, and at the same time leaned his head towards the monocular, as if he wanted to observe again.
"What? Two tall zombies fighting each other? ”
Lu Yu hurriedly pushed away Zhang Ning's head, and leaned in to observe it again.
Sure enough, in a corner of the zombie group, there was a scene where two zombies were constantly tearing each other apart.
The skin of these two zombies is darker than the surrounding zombies, and they are not shiny, and they are very well concealed, which made Lu Yu ignore them when he first observed them.
I saw that one of the zombies with half a white vest on his body raised his arms and grabbed at the same kind in front of him, and his black and shiny nails were like five steel knives with open blades, instantly cutting the flesh on the opponent's face, revealing the bones in it.
But as the opponent of this white vest zombie, the naked zombie didn't seem to show weakness, and he raised his arm in the same posture and grabbed at the other party.
The two zombies tore each other back and forth, and the residual force from the claw blow easily tore apart the dwarf zombies around them, and the black substance was scattered in all directions, causing a commotion among the corpses, but the two zombies seemed to be unaware, still tearing each other selflessly, and they were already looking like they were fully engaged in it......
