Chapter 3: Variants

After taking a shower, Ye Xun changed into a clean coat, leaned back on the sofa, and thought about this series of things.

There is no doubt that all the changes began last Friday, when I opened the mysterious express box.

Ye Xun didn't know who the person who sent the courier was, but he could be sure that the courier was the main reason for his mutation.

This mutation is not only manifested in the surface of his body, but even changes his eating habits, making him uninterested in all normal foods, except for fresh meat.

Ye Xun didn't dare to go to the hospital, so he had to open his laptop.

Typing these into the search bar yields only a few results for "pica".

But Ye Xun knows that his changes are not just pica.

First of all, the scales are not what normal humans should have, but more like some kind of reptilian creature.

Ye Xun even suspected that it might be the dragon's scales.

Only the scales of the dragon will be similar to the scales of the fish, one after another in a fan-shaped stack.

Considering that when he mutated, there would also be a sharp object like a "bone spur" on his back, Ye Xun felt that his mutation tendency was likely to be a combination of the Eastern Dragon and the Western Dragon.

Of course, Ye Xun had never seen a dragon, and everything was based on baseless conjectures.

In the past, he rarely did physical labor, so he ate very little.

But yesterday, Ye Xun almost ate four catties of raw steak, which can definitely break the record of normal people!

The increase in food intake has also greatly improved physical fitness.

Ye Xun's figure is relatively thin, and every time he participates in a sports competition organized by the company, as long as he runs a hundred or ten meters, he will be tired and out of breath.

But after eating this raw meat, he felt that his body had endless strength.

In order to test the strength of the mutation of his body, Ye Xun stood up directly from the sofa, squatted 200 times on the spot, and then did more than 100 push-ups.

He deliberately ran to the square downstairs of the community, and ran around the track several times at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, attracting many old men and old ladies to watch.

Of course, even if it is a mutated body, there is a limit to physical ability.

The state of the 100-meter sprint could only last for two minutes, and then Ye Xun started jogging, which lasted for more than two hours.

Counting the amount of exercise through his mobile phone, he did at least 200 squats, 500 frog jumps, and ran half a marathon in one day......

What's weird is that after doing these exercises, Ye Xun will of course become very tired, and his appetite will continue to increase, eating more raw meat.

As soon as his stomach was filled, Ye Xun felt energetic again, and the fatigue brought by exercising all afternoon was instantly swept away......

So far, most of the changes that Ye Xun can feel about the mutation are positive and beneficial to the body.

The specific manifestation is that the muscles are becoming more and more developed, the endurance and physical strength have increased significantly, and the explosive power is so explosive that it can crack the wooden door panel of the bedroom with one punch.

It's only the problem of eating habits that makes him anxious all the time.

Ye Xun secretly tried a lot of food, including fruit juices, carbonated drinks, coffee and tea, and other drinks.

He found that the more natural the food that has not been artificially added, the longer it can stay in the stomach.

For example, in carbonated drinks, Ye Xun spits out when he drinks a sip, but if he changes to juice and tea, he can stay in his stomach for half an hour.

In contrast, there is a strong craving for meat.

Chickens, ducks, fish and geese, all kinds of livestock, everything that can be seen in the market, Ye Xun will not refuse.

And it has to be raw meat, the fresher the better.

But the price of meat food is often higher than that of non-meat, coupled with the continuous growth of food volume, Ye Xun's pocket is gradually a little unbearable.

In order to solve the problem of food shortage, Ye Xun even made several simple bird traps on the balcony of the rental house to catch sparrows and birds in the community.

After his body fully adapted to these changes, Ye Xun began to investigate the origin of the express.

You can search the entire courier box, and you can only get an unfamiliar address.

Fortunately, that address is not too far from the community where he lives now, and Ye Xun plans to take the time to take a look.

Early the next morning, Ye Xun went downstairs before dawn, rode the little electric donkey that had accompanied him for three years, and it took nearly an hour to arrive at the unfamiliar address.

As far as the eye can see, there is a dilapidated building with large demolition letters written on the wall.

Ye Xun wandered around the neighborhood for a long time, but he didn't even see a passerby, let alone investigate the origin of the courier.

It wasn't until he looked depressed and was about to return the same way that he met an old sanitation man outside the demolition area. He immediately walked up, handed a cigarette, and asked if there were any people nearby?

The old sanitation man smoked a cigarette and said, "This place has long been unoccupied, and half a year ago, the municipal unit turned this place into a demolition area, and everyone moved out." ”

It seems that even the only clue is not reliable.

Ye Xun was so distressed that he had to ride an electric donkey back, pass by the vegetable market downstairs, and stop and walk in.

The owner of the butcher shop was stunned, "Young man, how many people in your family buy so much meat every time, can you eat it all?" ”

Ye Xun just smiled, his expression was a little embarrassed, and he chose a few pieces of the freshest raw meat and asked the butcher shop owner to pack it for himself.

In the past few days, he has always bought meat at the same fixed stall, and it is inevitable that he will be noticed after a long time.

So, when Ye Xun left the vegetable market, he went to visit the poultry stall again and bought some live poultry and a few meat rabbits.

In comparison, the meat of pigs, cattle and sheep will be rougher, and in terms of taste, rabbits are more delicate, and there is not too much fishy taste, which is more in line with Ye Xun's appetite.

Just looking at the meat rabbits trembling in the iron cage, he still felt a little guilty in his heart.

After buying food, Ye Xun hurried home and prepared to slaughter a chicken to "make up for it".

At this time, the mobile phone rang suddenly, and Ye Xunyi looked at the caller ID, but he was a little surprised-it was his own hair and colleague, Wang Gang.

pressed the answer button, and Wang Gang's chattering voice immediately came from the other end of the phone,

"Ye Xun, are you sleeping at home in a daze and forgetting what day of the week is today? Your vacation ended yesterday, and Manager Chen just released his words, and if you don't report back to the company, you will have to roll up and leave! ”

Damn it!

Ye Xun then remembered that although he had taken a few days off before the mutation, the vacation was over.

He has been patronizing and studying his body these days, and he has long forgotten all about going to work.

He hurriedly changed his clothes, put on his coat, and hurried downstairs.

Although it has mutated, life has to continue, the skyrocketing amount of food has increased the cost of eating several times, if he loses his job, Ye Xun is very likely to become the first "mutant" to be starved to death in human history.

It doesn't get much more ironic than that.
