As Ran Hongxia said, even though Xie Wenyuan is nearly seventy years old, he is actually very strong. Not only does he not have the fatigue of an old man, but he is also more agile than ordinary young people and can walk more than ten kilometers. No one has asthma. Physically speaking, Xie Wenyuan is far better than Yan Zisu.
During the conversation, Li Jiayu learned that Xie Wenyuan was not just a literati who devoted himself to learning. Like ancient literati, Xie Wenyuan also attached great importance to physical exercise and practiced Tai Chi, Wu Qin Xi, and family breathing techniques all year round. Perhaps his skills were not extraordinary. But his health is absolutely top-notch, and he often goes to Xijiang River for winter swimming in winter.
"As expected of an old man who can teach Ran Hongxia... he really has a way..."
Many young people today have long been exhausted by the colorful life. They either play games all night long without restraint, or stay in the sex room without exercising at all, or just watch Ivy masturbating day and night, or indulge in addiction all day long. I don’t know how many people are in a sub-healthy state due to drinking and sex. Of course, the impetuousness of society has also given rise to many harmful foods. I don’t know how many people will be harmed just by gutter oil and black heart rice.
During a city-wide escape, those who are often the first to die are those with weak physiques and extremely poor reaction speeds. Even if the school guards, vanguards, and city guards can resist large bugs, small bugs will always slip through the net. , those with poor reaction speed will always be poisoned to death by small bugs.
"Almost there..."
Li Jiayu raised his head, looked at the towering bell tower of Xijiang University in the distance, and murmured.
After two days apart, his heart was filled with longing for Xiao Wanqing. Although Xijiang University's defense force was extremely strong, he was not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Li Jiayu was still a little worried about Xiao Wanqing's life, whether there would be danger, whether You will feel a headache to take charge of the overall situation.
"Haha... Half a year ago, I accompanied Hongxia on a walk in your school. It was early spring, with peach blossoms and fallen flowers all over the place. It was like a fairyland on earth. I never thought... Now that we are in such a state, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hell on earth... "
Xie Wenyuan shook his head and sighed.
No... Even before I stepped into the school, just walking on Xuefu Street in the north of the city, I could feel a hellish scene rushing towards my face. The fishy rotten smell penetrated my nostrils, making it difficult to breathe.
After being ravaged by insects for three days and three nights, Xuefu Street today is more dilapidated and miserable than the last time Li Jiayu saw it, and it is full of desolation and loneliness.
All vegetation and banyan trees planted on the roadside were uprooted by red-topped beetles. Banyan trees more than ten meters high collapsed everywhere, blocking the streets and even falling on houses, smashing glass and wall roots. Beauty salons, banks, hotels, guesthouses, Internet cafes, supermarkets, etc. were also severely damaged by red-capped beetles, as if they had been violently demolished by demolition teams. Although they were not in ruins, those buildings were already crumbling, as if they were in ruins. Collapse is not far away.
There were many more corpses on the road. Needless to say, it must have been the bugs that went crazy last night and attacked higher floors like crazy, forcing the survivors to jump off the building. Compared to being bitten to death by bugs or falling to death, Obviously more people are willing to be thrown to death.
But some floors are not high. If you fall from the fifth or sixth floor, you will not necessarily die. Instead, you will become disabled and miserable. Then you will be eaten by red-topped beetles inch by inch. I don’t know how miserable it is. .
The road was littered with pieces, pieces, and pieces of corpses. The black and red blood had long since dried and condensed into thin plasma, exuding a smoky stench together with the brains.
The most disgusting thing is that little bugs emerge from the corpse, one by one with transparent larvae.
Red-capped beetles, venomous spiders, and sickle beetles all like to ejaculate after eating and then lay eggs on the corpse.
Those slightly complete corpses are even more miserable than the broken corpses, because most of them have insect eggs, either in the abdominal cavity or the brain cavity. In short, their flesh and blood are nutrition for the larvae. Once the larvae crawl out of the eggs, they will As soon as he gnawed on the corpse, he quickly grew up.
It only takes a day for the eggs of the insects to hatch, and in a day or two they can grow to the size of a thumb or a goose egg. When they emerge from the body riddled with holes, they are still covered in plasma and rotten flesh, which is disgusting. To the extreme, she still dared to show off her power to Li Jiayu and others. Yan Zisu's face turned pale. No matter how strong she was, she was just an ordinary woman. There was no way she could withstand such a battle. She couldn't help but vomited twice, and her legs became numb. She was so weak that if Li Jiayu hadn't supported her, she might not have been able to walk at all.
"There is no way... there are too many larvae, tens of thousands, and it is impossible to kill them all."
Those disgusting larvae frightened Yan Zisu. With Li Jiayu's character, he should have completely uprooted the larvae, but a pair of insect mates can produce hundreds or thousands of larvae. There are too many to kill. Simply don't kill him.
Some larvae are already crawling tremblingly on the street, like sea crabs emerging from the ground on the beach in summer. They are densely packed and creepy to see. However, the larvae are still very fragile and do not have strong attack power. Sometimes One step would kill several of them.
"They grow very fast... Juvenile bugs are not afraid of the sun and are not picky about food. They eat human flesh and are omnivores. Their metabolism is very fast. If they are allowed to grow, they will be as big as a mouse in ten days, and they will initially have less than half of the attack power of a mature body. , very tricky... "
Li Jiayu murmured that the terrifying thing about larvae is not that they can hurt people, but that they are terrifying in number and the food they consume
After millions of larvae have eaten the corpses on the ground, they will definitely run around and run into places where food is hidden to eat. Once the food has been contaminated by them, no one will dare to continue eating it. This has caused Xijiang's Food in the city has been greatly reduced
Originally, Xijiang City was a land of fish and rice, with extremely rich supplies. The supermarkets, food stores, and rice warehouses in the north of the city could definitely store enough food for 70,000 to 80,000 people for more than two months. However, due to the influence of millions of larvae, the food stored in the north of the city would be enough in ten days. There's not much food left
In fact, this is indeed the case. When the whole school fled in the last life, all the teachers and students of the school were starving to death and lacked all kinds of food. Many students were so hungry that their faces were yellow and skinny. If the citizens in the west and east of the city hadn't helped, I'm afraid it would have happened. Some classmates were starved to death.
"While there is still some... we must snatch some food, lest it is all destroyed by the larvae... "
Li Jiayu sighed. Everyone is afraid of the feeling of hunger, but only those who have truly experienced starvation will understand the importance of food. Some hungry people can stab their companions for a piece of bread. This is definitely not a joke. of
At this time, Li Jiayu's team had already entered Xijiang University. Like Tongfu Street, Xijiang University was even more dilapidated. Even the Roman stone pillars at the school gate had completely collapsed, and the marble with the four characters "Xijiang University" carved on it was scratched by sickle beetles. beyond recognition…
Apparently, Xijiang University was further attacked by crazy bugs last night, but it did not cause any casualties.
Walking in the dilapidated school, Li Jiayu was not in a good mood. Xijiang University was just like Xijiang City, and he felt more or less nostalgic in his heart. Seeing his alma mater in such a state, Li Jiayu, who was not a sentimental person, also He couldn't help but sigh, maybe no one would recall the beautiful scenery of the past, but Li Jiayu deeply realized that the trend of fate is extremely difficult to resist. With his own power, he can only change the fate of those around him. As for the fate of Xijiang University and Xijiang City being destined to become ruins, Li Jiayu could not change it at all.
"Ah, look, there's someone over there."
"Who dares to wander around at this time..."
"Let me take a look, I don't think I've seen these people before... But those beauties are very eye-catching."
"Master Xie Wenyuan, that's Master Xie Wenyuan. He is an honorary professor of our Xijiang University. He came to our school to give an opening speech two years ago."
"Uh, he is the most famous literary figure in the southern province? I heard that he lives in the south of the city...will he appear in the north of the city?"
"You idiots, Master Xie Wenyuan, is not the point... The point is that girl with white hair, don't you think she looks familiar? Don't skip the words.
"Yes, he looks familiar... Li Jiayu also has white hair, but it's a pity that I haven't seen him in the past few days..."
"Doesn't he look familiar? He is Li Jiayu. You blind bastards can't even recognize Li Jiayu?"
"It's impossible... That's obviously a woman."
At the entrance of the teaching building in the distance, some students were busy cleaning up the corpses. They all wore gloves and masks, and suppressed their nausea. Under the command of the teaching assistant and others, they moved the corpses downstairs to trolleys for centralized processing. , lest a plague breaks out and lead to even worse consequences.
These students are all selected responsible, courageous, and bloody people. Back then, Ran Hongxia had promised Li Jiayu that she would select a group of people to organize into a school guard and shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the school. Obviously, those who carried them The students with the corpses are members of the school guard. There are only 250 people selected out of more than 5,000 people. Most of them are boys. There are only less than 20 girls. They are either medical professionals. , or the boy died in the insect plague and was inspired to join the hard and tiring school guard.
Of course, there is no doubt that the captain of the school guard is Ran Hongxia. She is nosy and has a sense of justice. She even knows how to win people's hearts and distinguish rewards and punishments. She is naturally responsible for being the captain. The deputy captains are the prophet Li Jiayu and the dragon man Chu Xiang. , Demonologist Yi Tianzhao, Dark Temple Ling Shaoping.
The school guard is divided into five teams, each with nearly fifty people, each led by a captain-level person. The main responsibility is to protect teachers and students and resist insects. Of course, the hard work is also done by the school guard. Although There are very few awakened people and inheritors here, but all of them are one of ten people who are hard-working and full of spirit.
There were more than a dozen red-capped beetles that wandered into Xijiang University in the past few days. They were all killed by Dian Hongxia's team. The peeled insect crystals plus some of the accumulated insect crystals amounted to more than thirty. Most of them were Rewards were given to those with outstanding performance in the school guards. Nearly twenty people were given the opportunity to increase their arm strength, which made other members of the school guards extremely jealous.
Now, it was already eleven o'clock. Ran Hongxia remembered that Li Jiayu said that the insect tide would recede today, so at nine o'clock in the morning, she sent Ling Shaoping of the Dark Temple to check the situation outside the school. The news she got made all the teachers and students in the school extremely excited. Cheer up, all the red-capped beetles and amoeba have disappeared, only a few venomous spiders are left.
Naturally, Ran Hongxia and other awakeners, inheritors, and even the school's socially experienced instructors gathered together to discuss the next countermeasures, while the ordinary school guards were ordered to go downstairs while there was no threat of insects. came to clean up the corpse and met the deputy captain Li Jiayu who was rushing back to school.
