Harsh sounds came in through the door panel, obviously sharp chicken claws scratching the door panel. Once, twice, three times... Tang Miao's heart sank when the faint and narrow light shot from the door through the hole into the dark room.
More and more light bands shot into the room from the broken place, and the room became more and more quiet. Tang Sihuang said in a deep voice, "Light up the lamp."
As soon as the words fell, someone turned on the strong flashlight neatly, and then, the oil lamp was lit, and the room was filled with light.
"Clatter-clap", there was a sound above the head, and something fell on the ground in the yard and broke.
"What's the sound?" Tang Miao asked alertly.
Chen Li had a surprised and suspicious expression on his face: "It's the tiles that fell."
"Here, can ordinary chickens fly as high as the roof?" A man looked up at the roof and said.
"Obviously, this is not an ordinary chicken." Chen Li clenched the knife in his hand.
"Ah—" A horrified scream pierced the sky from afar.
"It's the cell!" Chen Li looked at Tang Sihuang.
Tang Sihuang asked: "You checked before, how many chickens and ducks are there?"
Chen Li looked at his subordinates, and the person in charge of inspecting the pens immediately came out and reported to Tang Sihuang: "Report to the boss, there are nineteen chickens and seven ducks in total."
Tang Sihuang thought for a while, and said: "Take care of yourself first. If these chickens can be caught alive, you don't have to force them." It is God's will to die.
"Yes!" After everyone agreed, they strictly guarded the door.
When the door panel finally broke open, a chicken rushed in first. This is a proud rooster. The red comb is more red and plump at this time. It seems that bright red blood will drip out when you pinch it with your hand; the slender beak is thin and sharp. With a touch of blue, it looks very strange. The already sharp chicken claws are more slender, like steel cones, with needle-like tips and smooth skin, reflecting the cold light under the light.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a sudden shock. If you are caught by this claw, even if you don't die, you will lose half your life.
Before the two wings of the big rooster had time to squeeze over, a teammate slashed at it with a knife, cutting open its abdomen. The big cock shook a few times in pain and died. Another person quickly grabbed one of its chicken feet, dragged it in, and threw it aside.
One chicken died, and many more rose up. The other chicken scrambled forward, clucking in its mouth, rushed in, kicked its two paws on the ground, and flew up. This one seemed to be smarter, and it spread its wings only after jumping into the house, and flew to attack the nearest person.
Chen Li winked at the person beside him, and the two blocked him together.
There was a sound above the head, Tang Miao looked up and saw two tiles falling down one after the other. Standing directly below was a member of the first team, who was so engrossed in staring at the door that he didn't notice the change above his head. Tang Miao quickly pulled him aside. In the next second, two tiles hit the ground and were smashed to pieces.
"Thank you, young master!" The man was shocked, and quickly thanked Tang Miao. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw a black shadow descending from the sky, and a small knife flew out of his hand, and stabbed the target with a "chi". A relatively thin chicken fell to the ground with a "snap".
More chickens poured in, and the house was small, which was not good for everyone. Tang Miao hurriedly thanked the man, kicked open the window, and turned out. The others hurriedly jumped out of the window into the yard as well.
"Ho—" The zombies ran over from nowhere and rushed towards Tang Miao with their bloody mouths open. Tang Miao rolled away on the spot, waved away the chicken and duck feathers flying in the air that obstructed the view, walked around behind the zombie, and hit the spine of the zombie with two straight uppercuts in a row.
Tang Sihuang lightly raised his left foot in front of the zombie, and hit the zombie's lower jaw. From the sound of bone breaking, it can be known that the force was definitely not small. A vague and broken whimper sounded from the zombie's throat, and its movements were much slower. Tang Miao swung his knife over to end its life.
By the time the war ended, it was already more than two hours later. Almost all of them were injured in some way. Everyone rushed to the temporary prison before they had time to bandage their wounds. But everyone knew in their hearts that if they didn't hear the movement over there, those people might be in danger.
When they got to the cell, they saw that there were a lot of dead people in the prison, only two or three were still alive, and it was impossible to revive them, so it was better to give them a good time.
Tang Miao took a special look at Zhou Xiong, his body was covered with bloodstains and blood, if it wasn't for the special clothes on his body, he could hardly recognize that this person was Zhou Xiong. This can be regarded as evil comes with evil.
Everyone worked together to kill the three giant chickens in the cell, and found a relatively clean house to stay for one night. There were only less than four hours before dawn, so they had to hurry up and rest. This time Tang Sihuang arranged a vigil for six people who were relatively lightly injured. Tang Miao was one of them, but he proposed it on his own initiative.
It was just a trivial matter, Tang Sihuang let him go, resting his head on his lap and quickly fell asleep. Tang Miao covered him with a thin blanket, carefully laid his legs flat, and took out a book of brain teasers from his bag to read, so as not to fall asleep. The other five people had injuries on their bodies, and they were very tired after moving their hands. Seeing him so leisurely, they were very envious. If they lost consciousness, they could only pinch their own legs hard.
Tang Miao noticed their predicament and lowered her voice: "You guys should go to sleep too, I'm not sleepy at all, just keep watch alone."
The five of them shook their heads in unison and refused. Tang Miao didn't force them either, and admired them a little more in her heart. The perseverance of soldiers is admirable.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Miao suddenly heard a strange sound coming from his ears, as if someone was constantly twisting the joints of the bones, and there was a loud bang. He looked over vigilantly, and saw several wounded patients writhing in pain in a coma, and seemed to be struggling in their sleep when they were about to wake up. Tang Miao gently moved Tang Sihuang away, turned on the flashlight, stood up, and walked over quietly.
The other five night watchmen who were drowsy suddenly became alert.
"Young master, what's the matter?" Someone asked softly.
Tang Miao waved her hand and tiptoed to the nearest injured patient.
"Uh... uh... ho..." The man made a vague voice, twisting his whole body up and down, his brows were tightly furrowed, his face was flushed, as if he had a high fever. He sat up suddenly, and suddenly opened his eyes, the scarlet eyes seemed to be stained with murderous intent.
Tang Miao was frightened, and took two steps back hastily, with a bad premonition, her mind was spinning quickly. Judging by the symptoms of this person at this time, he looked like a zombie. But tonight there was only one zombie, and he killed it in time. He was sure that this person was not bitten by a zombie, but scratched by a mutated chicken. However, the base has determined that human beings will not mutate when bitten or scratched by mutated animals. Why did things become like this
"He turned into a zombie?" One person screamed, raised the gun in his hand, and aimed at that person.
The other four hurriedly went to check on the others who kept humming.
Tang Miao held down the barrel of the gun in the man's hand in time, her voice was soft but powerful: "Don't act rashly! It's not sure yet."
Seeing him hang down the barrel of the gun, Tang Miao thought for a while, and then said: "Just in case, tie them up first, preferably in the yard outside. Wait until dawn to see the situation, maybe they just died because of injuries. That's what happens with a high fever."
After tying up four people who might turn into zombies, Tang Miao breathed a sigh of relief. After about half an hour, he secretly fed the four of them with some well water from the space under the pretext of going out for convenience. Until now, he still doesn't know what the function of well water is and under what circumstances it will be useful, but he will never know many things until he has tried it.
Tang Sihuang saw that he came in after a long time after going out, so he guessed what he had done, and didn't stop him. As long as Tang Miao doesn't put himself in danger, he usually won't interfere with him. After Tang Miao came in, his eyes scanned him up and down, and after confirming his safety, Tang Sihuang closed his eyes again and let Tang Miao move his head to his lap.
"Roar—" A strange roar suddenly came from outside the door.
Tang Miao jumped up, and the other vigils were not slow to react, and rushed out.
Tang Sihuang opened his eyes and frowned slightly. When he went out to take a look, the four people were each tied to a wall post. Three of them had obviously turned into zombies, and only one had the same expression as an ordinary person.
Tang Miao wondered secretly. The same well water, why is it useful for some people and not for others
"Go and call Chen Li out." Tang Sihuang's voice sounded, and the others realized that he had also come out.
"Boss, I'm here." Standing behind Tang Sihuang, Chen Li looked at his three comrades in pain.
"Daddy, what's going on?" Tang Miao walked to Tang Sihuang's side, puzzled. He asked very vaguely, only Tang Sihuang present understood what he meant.
Tang Sihuang looked at Chen Li: "As far as I know, among the four of them, only Wei Nan is a supernatural being." Wei Nan was the only one who did not turn into a zombie, and was still asleep at this time.
Chen Li guessed: "Could it be that after being bitten by a mutated animal, only those with supernatural powers can be immune? But didn't the upper echelons of the base say that being injured by a mutated animal would not cause infection?"
Tang Miao understood what Tang Sihuang really meant. There are currently two possibilities for this situation. 1. Ordinary people and supernatural beings may mutate after being bitten by mutant animals, but supernatural beings (probably because of stronger immunity) survived, so they did not become zombies; 2. Ordinary people After being bitten by a mutated animal, the person with the ability also drank well water. Only the person with the ability can avoid becoming a zombie.
Everyone else was woken up, and one person asked Tang Sihuang with an excited expression: "Boss, that is to say, the results reported to us by the base are fundamentally wrong? Or is it that the base's research has not been done properly at all?"
"If this is the case, we must ask the base to give us an explanation!" The other person was even more excited, looking at his suffering brother, his fists were clenched tightly, obviously trying to suppress his emotions.
