In the next three days, the sun was shining brightly during the day, and the autumn breeze was cool at night. It no longer rained heavily like before. The weather was surprisingly good, and the night was not as horribly cold as before. It was the coldest night since the escape. A happy day.
Due to the sunlight, zombies and zerg appear very rarely, and even the giant earthworms that are like tarsal maggots are very rare. Without the fatal threat, the escape team's schedule is very fast, and they are on the road every day. In seventeen hours, it would be approximately sixty or seventy kilometers, and in three days it would be two hundred kilometers. In other words, the escape team had less than four hundred kilometers left to travel to Yongcheng.
After all the hard work, I finally made it halfway. Looking back, it was really not easy. At least half of my companions were buried in the wilderness. Only those who are lucky enough can persist until today... I just don’t know, in the rest, During the journey, a few people were lucky enough to approach Yongcheng alive, approaching the place of hope.
Of course, as the days go by, the food crisis becomes more and more serious. Even large-scale civil organizations have a little surplus food, and the military organizations in the two cities have run out of food. Their backpacks are empty and it is difficult to find any more. A little bit of normal food.
This stimulated a large number of people to work hard to search for precious food in nature. Mushrooms, wild fruits, aquatic plants, bark roots, reptiles, grasshoppers, etc. were all snatched up to eat. Seven hundred thousand people fled. Wherever the team passed, all plants and animals that were slightly edible were plucked out. Even the bark of many trees was peeled off. Humans directly tore off the bitter and chewy soft tissue and brought it to them. Satisfied.
In the wild, all kinds of food are quite abundant, but no matter how abundant it is, it cannot withstand the greed of 700,000 mouths.
Sometimes when passing through a village, you will be lucky enough to find some crops left over from the past, such as vegetables and fruits, taro, sweet potatoes, corn, rice, etc. This will immediately make most of the escape team's eyes red, and they will work hard to snatch it. Among large organizations, All the inheritors in the world would fight for it, and if the army hadn't stopped them, there might have been a scuffle.
Sometimes a citizen catches a vole, and before it can be roasted, a nearby person will come over, punch, kick, and snatch the vole away. This shows how today's food crisis is a test of human nature. , the vast majority of people already know the truth that wealth should not be revealed in vain, and food should not be leaked. Who is lucky enough to find grasshoppers, sparrows, flower snakes, frogs, squirrels and other small things in the woods, mountains, and fields? They would definitely hide the animals and either eat them alive, or they would dare to secretly roast them with insect eyes at night when no one was around, make them half-cooked and stuff them into their mouths. Of course, they could also give half to the inheritors, who would help cook them. Not many people dared to snatch it.
As for Xijiang University, it is actually not much better. At first, Chu Xiang vowed that he could find thousands of kilograms of aquatic products in the rivers, but the real situation was not as good as he thought because there were more and more water worms in the rivers. , and there are also a variety of colorful worms with terrible toxins on the stage. A rough estimate is that there are at least a dozen kinds of unnamed water-type worms. This gives Chu Xiang few opportunities to go fishing. Moreover, the insects in the water also pose a fatal threat to the fish. The living space is getting smaller and smaller, and the number of fish is declining sharply...
A rough calculation showed that Chu Xiang had worked hard all day, and sometimes he had to be bruised and bruised just to catch four to five hundred kilograms of aquatic products. Such a small amount of food was really too little, not to mention whether it would be enough to fill the teeth of four thousand people. Chu Xiang, a giant with explosive muscles, would consume thirty or forty pounds of meat. After all, his metabolism was extremely intense and he had to absorb a large amount of calories from food to maintain his body's consumption.
And Jelly is not very powerful. Every day, she controls the golden ancient butterflies and flying dragon lice to fly into the sky to catch birds such as sparrows. Sometimes she also catches mammals on the ground. However, the number of various animals has dropped sharply since the end of the world. More than half, so no matter how hard Jelly works, he can only get back a few thousand pounds every day...
Although a thousand kilograms is a lot, it actually includes the food consumption of two flying dragon lice, two golden ancient butterflies, and two green beetles. The body of the six-headed bugs is extremely huge, and it must consume at least eight hundred kilograms of meat every day to maintain life.
"Jiayu, why do my bugs consume so much food... Before they surrendered to me, they didn't feel weak even if they didn't eat for more than ten days..." The troubled Jelly couldn't bear it anymore and asked Li Jiayu.
"Don't, don't come so close to me! Stop, yes, just stand there! Don't let your spit hit me when you talk!" Li Jiayu was startled by the jelly and quickly kept an absolute distance with her. The distance is not to say how scared he is, it's just a pure psychological shadow. After all, the time bomb of jelly is too scary. Li Jiayu is not afraid of anything, but he is afraid of transformation. If he really becomes a real mother, he really doesn't know How to face his cousin-in-law, Platycodon grandiflorum, Li Banyue and even his father...
"Don't worry, my transformation aura won't go out of control until the night of the full moon... I just want to ask about the bug..." Jelly smiled, pretending to be nonchalant, but the bitterness and bitterness on her face The bleakness fell into Li Jiayu's eyes, and Li Jiayu's heart suddenly flashed. He knew that Jelly's life was not easy. She would be teased as a transvestite wherever she went. Even the orphans who were picked up were as afraid of her as snakes and scorpions. She must have endured this. The mental pressure must be great, but Li Jiayu is not a saint, there is no need to be so kind to Jelly, and he is stupid, afraid that he will fail to comfort others and will add salt to their wounds.
"Oh, the bugs signed a contract with you and became your partner, which means that they have betrayed the bug world and the bug mother queen, and then they will no longer receive the energy infusion from the bug world... In other words, The bugs that come from the insect world to the human world are all provided with energy for their activities. Otherwise, with their terrifying size and huge number, they would have starved to death on the earth long ago. The reason why they like to eat humans is They just regard humans as their biggest enemies, and human genes can make them evolve..." Li Jiayu didn't do much research on bugs, but humans and bugs have fought thousands of times in later generations, and humans' research on bugs can be said to be quite thorough. , even the various secrets of the insect world have been analyzed, calculated, and calculated, and several foreign legendary masters risked their lives to break into the insect world... Therefore, the basic information of the insect race has already been known to everyone in the late apocalypse.
Li Jiayu even knew that there was a kind of perfect worm called "Beiming Worm". Once they were drilled into the brain, even the legendary masters would be stunned, and all their strength would be taken over by the "Beiming Worm". I heard that the Western Province There was a legendary berserker who became the puppet of the Beiming Insect. Later, he rebelled while defending the city, causing everyone in the city to die without burial. In the end, the berserker ran to the insect world and accepted the insect mother. The emperor was transformed into a strange creature that was half insect and half human. His strength reached the peak of legend and was almost unstoppable. He led the army of insects to cause a bloody storm in the Celestial Dynasty. Unfortunately, Li Jiayu died later. Otherwise, He actually wanted to compete with this Zerg Berserker.
"It turns out that if the bugs betray the bug world, they will not be able to get the energy provided by the bug world... I asked how those small animals such as cats, dogs, monkeys and squirrels could escape. It turns out that the bugs do not need to escape from the flesh and blood at all. Extracting energy... Hey, if you put it this way, every time I add a bug, I will have to worry about their food? Oh my God... Isn't this too annoying? We don't have enough to eat, how can there be so much food? Feeding bugs? Woohoo, my purple beetle, my flame beetle, my holy centipede king..." Jelly was about to cry. She always felt that she was a genius and could easily conquer sharp insects. She also planned to He planned to conquer the Holy Armored Centipede King in the future when his strength increased greatly, but when he thought of the terrifying size of the Holy Armored Centipede King, which was two hundred meters long, Jelly rolled his eyes.
"You don't have to worry about this. If your insect digestion function is good, you can let them eat insect meat. Anyway, insect corpses are easy to get. They will be all over the mountains and plains in the future. Even if you tame a dozen purple beetles, It's enough to support them... As for the current stage, hey, Jelly, your flying dragon louse only brings back one or two hundred pounds of sparrows and foxes every day. They cut open the skin and remove the internal organs, and they can only really eat them. It’s only a hundred kilograms, and with such a small amount of meat, it can’t even feed those more than a hundred little devils.”
"What do you mean?" Jelly looked at Li Jiayu warily. She knew that Li Jiayu must have bad intentions.
"Those brats are eating them up. It's obviously you who raises them, but they are so afraid of you. You must feel aggrieved, right? In that case, why do you feel uncomfortable? Can't you just kick them out? Seeing out of sight means doing nothing. Jing, I don’t care whether they are dead or alive outside..."
"Jiayu, you...you have a grudge against those orphans, right? I'm already unfortunate enough, so I don't want to see those children suffer misfortune in the apocalypse. At least...I will protect them to Yongcheng..."
Li Jiayu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "You are really a 'heroine'. Your bodhisattva-like heart makes me admire you. Jelly is really a hero among 'females'..."
Li Jiayu's ridicule immediately made Jelly roll her eyes. She left without saying a word. Anyway, Li Jiayu was annoying as hell and always provoked others. Jelly realized that it would be better to have less contact with Li Jiayu, so as not to be confused by Li Jiayu. Feeling uncomfortable all over.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't leave yet. I still have something to say." Li Jiayu shouted at Jelly's back: "Didn't you take in a lot of huskies, police dogs, wolfdogs, and shepherds when you were at Xijiang University?" Dogs, Tibetan Mastiffs and other large dogs? Oh, and there are two or three maroon horses. There should be seven or eight dogs still alive now, right? You make them eat wild fruits and grass every day, and you starve them to the bone. I see, it’s hard for them to make it to Yongcheng alive. How about you pick a few dogs to cook with? I haven’t had dog meat hot pot for a long time... "
"Li Jiayu! If you dare to hit my dog, I will fight you to the death!" Jelly turned around and, regardless of his image, bared his teeth and waved his claws at Li Jiayu, which made Li Jiayu run away in fright.
"Wow, hahaha, a dead shemale still calls herself my mother, it makes me laugh so hard..." Li Jiayu's laughter came from far away, making Jelly's face turn green.
