"Oh, I guess I can't get married!" Liu Chang looked at the female officer who was eight years older than himself and said with a smile: "With your character, it's good to be a buddy, but it's a bit too hard to be a woman, and you can't let it go. But It's cheerful enough, if it's an ordinary girl, losing an arm, at least it will be uncomfortable for a month. I didn't expect you to recover so quickly?"
"Well, I grew up in the compound of the military region since I was a child, and my personality was like a boy since I was a child. I remember that many boys in our compound were beaten and cried by me when I was young, as if the compound was a dominance." He Zhizhi said. , holding his hair together with one hand and continued: "As for you saying that I am your enemy, I disagree. I just happen to be in the army under the department of the regiment leader that Zhao Zhuo made friends with. I also fulfilled the order. Let's There is no need to have such a big hatred between them, and you don't need to monitor me every day."
"Hehe, I just don't feel relieved. After all, we haven't known each other for a short time. Please understand." Liu Chang said sincerely.
"That's up to you. Anyway, I can't go back to the army. But have you heard recently? The propaganda army on the street said that they are going to pour defoliants on the whole city?" He Zhizhi said : "This should be Zhao Zhuo's idea again. Defoliants were poured all over the city to make most of the plants wither and die overnight. This is what the US military did during the Vietnam War."
"Defoliant? U.S. military?" Liu Chang frowned.
"Yes, the defoliant, the active ingredient is dioxin, a highly toxic substance, which is very effective on plants. And I feel that if it is the defoliant introduced by Zhao Zhuo, there should be other ingredients. So, I don't It is suspected that the plants in the city will all die overnight after being sprayed with defoliants."
"Why did he do that?" asked the little girl beside him.
"To transform people's living environment, Zhao Zhuo has always been the most radical reformer of nature, but now the city is flooded with plants, which have seriously damaged the power facilities and many other infrastructures." He Zhizhi said, organizing his words to continue Dao: "And I also read Li Qingshui's food web theory, and I know what kind of position trees play in the natural world. They can be regarded as the dual status of predators and producers, but even so, they are currently, in fact, In the natural world, it still plays more of a role as a producer. Although Zhengzhou is relatively safe for mutants like you, it is still very dangerous for ordinary people."
"If most of the plants are removed, the ecosphere has no producers, and the insects and some animals that hide during the period will lose their food source, thus breaking the balance of the ecosphere and becoming extinct or fleeing to the surrounding forest. , to make space for human beings to live, I think Zhao Zhuo means this."
"Sounds like a good thing." Dr. Huang next to him nodded, "But it doesn't always feel that simple."
"Yes, dioxins are highly toxic to plants, as well as to humans." He Zhizhi said, explaining as if memorizing information: "Take the Vietnam War as an example, those who fought under the defoliant Most of the U.S. soldiers suffered from various complications after returning home, and the birth defect rate of their children was as high as 30%. This is still referring to the veterans who fought there, not the long-term life in Vietnam natives."
"In fact, when you go to areas that have experienced 'Operation Grass', you can still see countless deformed and congenitally festered children."
"Then this matter can be passed by the military? The congenital defect rate is more than 30%!" Liu Chang was shocked by Zhao Zhuo's crazy idea. "Combined with the beam bean effect, this is to make Zhengzhou City extinct!"
"Hehe, maybe people in the military think that after spraying defoliants, the number of people who can be saved will exceed the rate of missing offspring." He Zhizhi sneered: "Or in their opinion, human life is far from being restored and reconstructed." Important. But no matter what, now that the news has been released on the street, we can only listen to it, but not act on it. We are bystanders without the right to speak!"
"Oh, yes, it's unfounded to say these things now. We can't control this." Liu Chang said, picking up his bowl of Liangdou, "Just like this food, what the military is going to do is not us. Can control."
After he finished speaking, he walked into the crowd who were distributing food over there, planning to exchange the beans for other food.
Early the next morning.
After Liu Chang woke up the sleeping He Zhizhi, leaving Dr. Huang with the little girl in his arms, the three set off. They have two goals today, one is to find the girl who took away his worm box, and the other is to see the current situation on the street.
And the three of them walked out of the community together like this, and after a while, they saw a group of soldiers carrying pesticide sprayers, and they were spraying aerosol liquid on various plants on the roadside.
And when Liu Chang saw them like this, he let the other two stay where they were, and then walked up quickly—not worried about being recognized—after all, although he is being hunted by the military now, the army has really seen his current face There were very few people, and their faces were covered with bandages. Even if their own parents saw them, they would not be able to recognize them.
He walked up to a group of soldiers without any scruples, and asked, "Excuse me, are you..."
Before Liu Chang could finish his sentence, several soldiers quickly stepped back after seeing his face, "Stand there, don't come over, your face is covered with bandages, is there some kind of infectious disease?"
"We don't discriminate against you, but these days, there are too many strange bacterial diseases, and we are also afraid of being infected. Don't come here, if you want to ask, just ask there."
"Well, good." Liu Chang nodded, standing where he was and not following. He has received a lot of this kind of treatment in the past two days, so he didn't pay too much attention to it, so he stood two meters away from the soldiers and asked, "Are you spraying defoliants?"
"Well, according to the instructions above, the whole city is sprayed with defoliants, so that these plants will not grow for a hundred years."
"Hundred years?" Liu Chang was shocked when he heard this word.
"Well, Deputy Chief of Staff Zhao's instructions said that he wanted to transform the entire city of Zhengzhou, and he said that the new type of defoliant he researched had little harm to the human body, but had a better effect on plants. He said where to spray it, Which one will not grow any grass within a hundred years. It is said that the whole city must be sprayed with this kind of defoliant except for the land where Liang beans are cultivated, so that the doomsday city will end early. The people in our propaganda team did not tell you two days ago this matter?"
"No, I didn't go out two days ago, I don't know." Liu Chang shook his head.
"Now that you know it, let's go quickly, stop talking nonsense with you, we still have to work."
"Oh, thank you all." Liu Chang bowed and left here.
After returning to the other two, Liu Chang smiled at them, explained a few words of information he got from the soldiers, and sighed: "Within a hundred years, not a single blade of grass will grow. This Zhao Zhuo is really vicious!"
"Natural selection by nature, human selection by nature, Zhao Zhuo regards himself as God."
"Hey, let's go, we can't manage his affairs, let the high-level toss around, at worst, we will die together at that time." He Zhizhi also sighed, and then walked ahead alone and led the way: "Big deal Don't worry, go find that girl and get back the worm box, that's our business."
"Yeah." Liu Chang nodded, pulling the little girl to follow.
Under the leadership of He Zhizhi, the two walked all the way to a bilingual kindergarten called "Purple What" in Chengdong District of Zhengzhou. . And Liu Chang didn't care what the name of the kindergarten was. He followed He Zhizhi to pick up the little girl and jumped into the closed courtyard door.
"The target person is here..." Standing in the kindergarten yard, He Zhizhi took a deep breath while speaking, "Besides that girl, there are sixteen people, twelve children, and four adults. "
"Can adults and children smell it?" Hearing He Zhizhi's words, Liu Chang's eyes widened in shock.
"Yes, adults and children have different body odors, and men and women also have different body odors. Those four adults are all men." He Zhizhi explained.
"The dog's nose is really good!" Liu Chang gave her a thumbs up, then turned and walked into the teaching area in the garden, and walked outside the door of a classroom.
The inside of this huge classroom has been converted into a large dormitory. Several large beds filled the space in the classroom, while the desks, chairs and benches were piled up messily on the side. Several large beds were artificially joined together to form an extra-large bed, and inside the bed, more than a dozen girls who were dressed in black silk or naked were lying side by side on the bed. And an adult man just used them as a bed, lying on the girl's body, and the other three were holding a girl on the other side and shaking their bodies, enjoying the happiness that can only be brought by the end.
After kicking open the locked door, Liu Chang saw this unsightly scene that made his blood boil again.
"You guys really know how to enjoy life!" Seeing this scene, Liu Chang's one-eyed eyes slightly narrowed, and shouted towards the door: "Xiao Jing, don't come in, it's not suitable for children."
"Who are you?" Several men who were enjoying their lives immediately became alert when they saw the stranger barging in. The four of them put down what they were doing together and stood disheveled on the ground.
As soon as they stood up, Liu Chang noticed something strange about one of them—the man looked extraordinarily strong and tall, with muscles all over his body swollen, like a mutated wild dog, and his figure had reached an astonishing height of two meters.
"There are also super-evolved among the people." Liu Chang saw this person, turned his head and asked outside the door: "How many?"
