56 Lion's Mane Mushroom?
The lion's mane mushroom was chopped and trembled a few times, and a lot of pale yellow liquid splashed out, and it did not immediately seep into the sand when it fell on the sand, but it seemed to be sticky and stained with a lot of sand, and after a while, it slowly seeped like sand seepage, how to look like egg white. Li Ting watched from a short distance, and confirmed the idea in her heart, this thing is definitely not a lion's mane mushroom, let alone a good thing. So Li Ting said: "When you arrive, it's spraying everywhere, what if it's poisonous." ”
Shan Dayu was also shocked by his own power, he didn't expect this thing to be so big, but it was so easy to cut, and the skin was a little tough, and the feeling inside was not much more difficult to cut than tofu. Is fresh lion's mane mushroom like this? Shan Dayu has never eaten fresh, so he asked Li Ting: "The inside is very soft, do you know what the inside of fresh lion's mane mushroom looks like?"
Li Ting shook her head and said, "You still think it's lion's mane mushroom, I don't know, don't ask me, I haven't eaten lion's mane mushroom." ”
"Okay, I'll take care of it myself. "Shan Dayu is fat and bold, not at all stunned by the strangeness of the lion's mane mushroom, anyway, the epidermis is a little tough, so he simply changes the cut directly, and the cloth is yes, along the gap just cut, back and forth to cut the skin.
The elasticity of lion's mane mushroom is mainly concentrated on the skin, the inside is very soft, the heavy rain is so drawn, almost no effort, it cuts a huge crack at once, the egg white-like liquid slowly gushes out of the skin along the crack, a while of hard work will dye the skin slimy, a little blue-red liquid mixed with the egg white is liquid, faintly exudes a strange smell, a smell of rust in the fishy, Li Ting even if it is far away, it can smell clearly, Li Ting frowned, always feel that this smell seems to have smelled somewhere。
At the same time, the prototype of the lion's mane mushroom was also cut into a large opening, and the force inside was unbalanced, and finally the whole collapsed, and the mouth was pulled open, and the contents of the lion's mane mushroom flowed out a lot.
Li Ting only glanced at it, then quickly looked away, and almost didn't spit it out directly.
Shan Dayu was also startled by the sudden appearance of something, and shouted Mom, the person hurriedly retreated five or six steps, obviously also shocked.
I saw that at the crack of the lion's mane mushroom, walnut-sized glass beads were scattered in a puddle, sticking together with the viscous liquid like egg whites, very much like the vomit of giants, and there was a white worm the size of a finger in each transparent bead, still struggling and squirming, obviously feeling that life was threatened, but they couldn't break through the bead film anyway, obviously they were not yet the moment to break out of the shell.
What made Li Ting the most unbearable was that there was still a person who flowed out of the big mouth of the lion's mane mushroom.
To be more precise, it should be a woman wrapped in mucus and insect eggs, her upper body rushed out of the crack so abruptly, the lower body is still in the lion's mane mushroom, and the clothes are still on the body, but the whole person is lying in an extremely distorted posture in the insect eggs, like a ball of flesh with bones that has been pinched together indiscriminately, the skin and flesh rotate and stretch, and the broken bones are here and skin, anyway, Li Ting knows that a living person will never be able to do such a posture, even if it is an acrobat.
The female corpse's eyes were already scattered, her expression of horror and despair was permanently fixed on her face, her long hair was wet with mucus, sticking to her face and neck, her hands were stiff and twisted like chicken claws, and several fingers were broken alive, obviously she grabbed something before she died, and was forced to let go by extreme violence, causing her fingers to be deformed. The wide open mouth was filled with insect eggs, and Li Ting didn't understand whether the eggs were poured into her mouth from the outside, or the eggs spit out from the stomach of the female corpse, and she was just showing in front of Li Ting's eyes without any cover.
Li Ting covered her mouth tightly, and the gastric juice of the crab hit Li Ting's throat again and again, she felt that she couldn't breathe, even if the zombies suddenly appeared, it was definitely not as disgusting and desperate as this "lion's mane mushroom". No wonder she felt the smell familiar, this human blood was diluted by mucus, wasn't it still human blood?
"This, this, this, this is a worm egg, a worm egg that eats people?" Shan Dayu stammered, Twilight was shocked again, he was still working on this worm egg in the water just now, he wouldn't have been tricked himself.
Thinking of this, Shan Dayu jumped three feet high, touched his whole body with both hands, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with his body, he still felt uneasy, and always felt that something was crawling on his back, making his back and heart uncomfortable, Shan Dayu ran to Li Ting's eyes in a few steps, showed his back to Li Ting, and said: "Baozi, show me my back, is there anything wrong, why do I think there are insects crawling on my back." ”
Shan Dayu's words made Li Ting come back to her senses, Shan Dayu had been in the water for so long just now, and he had come back with a bag of insect eggs, could he have been infected? Li Ting didn't dare to imagine such a consequence, so she could only take a few deep breaths and help Shan Dayu check the skin on her back inch by inch.
Shan Dayu's hair is relatively thick, and it is wet by the river, and it is obediently stuck to the back, Li Ting checked it for a while, and did not find anything wrong, Li Ting said: "Nothing, as for whether there is anything below, you won't want me to help you see it, it doesn't matter if I arrive, just check it as a nurse." ”
When Shan Dayu heard this, he quickly covered his butt and flashed to the side, and said with a smile: "Hey, I'll go, I have to keep it for my future daughter-in-law, but I can't be taken advantage of by your bun." After saying that, Shan Dayu ran to the back of the grass and hid in a place where Li Ting couldn't see, before unbuttoning his belt and checking his body.
"Who rarely looks at it, a fat body. After Li Ting finished speaking, she frowned and looked at the white insect egg packets that were still flowing down the riverbank.
There are so many insect egg packets, is there a person in each of them, from the first egg bag to the present, it has been a long time, but the egg packets on the river surface have not decreased, how many people have to die to reproduce so many egg packets, and how many insects will be bred by these egg packets, Li Ting dare not imagine, even with the original green river water, there is a sense of cold and terrifying.
"Well, you're fine. Such a cruel scene made Li Ting dare not look directly, so she could only do something else to divert her attention as much as possible.
Shan Dayu tied his trouser belt and walked out of the grass and said, "It's okay, nothing happens, it's just a psychological effect." This thing is really disgusting, how big a bug can be so destructive, could it be the bug that chased us yesterday?"
Li Ting couldn't help frowning, thinking for a while and having no clue, the world after the end of the world is no longer the world she once knew to live in, those disgusting zombies, mutated humans, high-end evolved bugs, and the 'primeval jungle' that appeared overnight, none of them are so abrupt and deeply frightening, in such a dangerous living environment, Li Ting's only goal is just to survive.
"I don't think it was yesterday's bugs, not to mention anything else, just saying that the ratio of bugs to eggs is not right, I feel that the only thing we can do is to be more careful, and the weapon must not be left in our hands. Li Ting said.
Shan Dayu nodded affirmatively, and said with a puzzled face: "You said, there are so many people retreating, we haven't seen any of them after swimming all night, won't they all die?" ”
"Shut your crow's mouth, Gaumi and they're going to be alive and well. Li Ting hurriedly refuted Shan Dayu's words, but the worry in her heart inevitably added another layer.
Gao Mi alone with three old, weak, sick and disabled, in this dangerous forest must be extremely dangerous, the top priority is to find them as soon as possible, the faster you act, the more dangerous it can be alleviated.
Thinking of this, Li Ting couldn't sit still, so she hurriedly ran to the beach and picked up the torn shirt that Shan Dayu threw on the ground, and ran to pull out a lot of mutant weeds and tie them into bundles, laying them on the broken opening of the backpack, so that although the gap in the backpack is still there, it can play a role in covering.
"Brother Yu, help me clean up the crabs, let's go find Gaomi. Li Ting threw the crab with the broken leg into the backpack and said.
"I haven't eaten yet. "Shan Dayu was focusing on 'lion's mane mushroom' just now, and he had long forgotten about the stubble of jì and crabs, and now his stomach growls when he thinks about it.
"If you can eat it, you can eat it, and I will never stop you. Li Ting raised her chin in the direction of the female corpse, but the movement of the crab in her hand was not affected at all.
Shan Dayu touched the empty belly pouch, glanced at the white worms that were still wriggling in the eggs on the shore, and the female corpse with great impact, and suddenly felt that he had no appetite, even if his heart was big, few people in such an environment could eat without a little shadow, even if he was fat and wide-hearted.
"I'll help you pack crabs, and we'll eat them in a different place in a while." Shan Dayu touched his nose and picked up the crabs, whether they were dead or alive, and threw them all into his backpack.
Li Ting didn't stop even if she saw Shan Dayu throwing the dead crab into the backpack, now is not the time to pay attention to whether the food has spoiled.
The two quickly cleaned up the supplies they could use, and with apprehension and anxiety in their hearts, they walked to the grass again. The forest of giant trees behind the grass still obscured the sky, and the wide pages were covered with early morning dew, which had not yet fully evaporated. Under the giant tree, there seemed to be a thick water vapor rising, Yan zhòng stopped Li Tingshan Dayu's line of sight, and a little farther away was even more white mist, which made people panic and deter people who were afraid.
Li Ting took a deep breath, this time it was not a temporary entry with clothes, but a real adventure to embark on. Li Ting and Shan Dayu didn't know what was in the giant tree forest, but they had to go in, and they couldn't help themselves.
Li Ting was a little manic, and always felt that this giant tree was full of crises and challenges. She could only say to herself repeatedly that only by living could she protect Yiqiē, and only by living.
"Let's go!" Shan Dayu patted the two boning knives on his waist and said.
"Yes, let's go. Li Ting suppressed the mania in her heart and took a firm first step towards the giant tree forest.
