Zeng Rui said that it was fine, but when he said two to three weeks, everyone got upset. From January 28th to now, isn't it more than two weeks?

But what Zeng Rui said made sense. It is impossible for only hair to fall out if it is radiation sickness. At that time, everyone seemed optimistic and used reasons such as acclimatization, but in fact, everyone was very worried.

Some people also said that tiger cubs will lose hair if they are fed with dog milk. We are probably not used to the food provided by aliens, which is why this happened.

This reason is the most reliable, but there is nothing else to eat in this place. We wanted to persist, but we didn't persist in the end... This is how we walked into the abyss step by step.

All the hair on everyone's body fell off, and everyone became bald. No matter whether they were taken out individually or tied together, it was ridiculous no matter how we looked at it, but we couldn't laugh.

Zeng Rui was the first person to lose all his hair. When he only had a few hairs left, he suddenly started to have a fever. We kept using water to cool him down, but it didn't work. He had a fever for two days before he regained consciousness. As soon as he woke up, he kept shouting that his whole body hurt. He didn't know why it hurt, and it wasn't just a simple pain. He said it was itchy and painful.

Not only did it hurt, but the fever didn't go away. But we only knew that he had a fever, and no one knew exactly how high it was.

From the beginning, we were worried that Zeng Rui's case was not an isolated incident. The facts were just as we guessed. Before Zeng Rui woke up, Li Wenzhe also fainted from a fever. Then it was Wang Zhifei, and then Liu Siyan. Less than half a day after Zeng Rui woke up, I also fainted from a fever.

When I woke up, only Wu Songyan was still not awake.

I remember it very clearly. I had a fever, was conscious, and hurt all over my body. I don't know how to describe it. If I have to describe it, it hurt from the inside out. It was really itchy and painful, as if ants were crawling on my bones, or something was drilling out.

I thought it was an illusion, but it wasn't.

Maybe it's because I've adapted to it over time. Although I still feel pain all over my body these days, the pain is not that severe. This should be a good thing, but Zeng Rui said that there are two more bones on his hips, on both sides of the hips, where the skin is thinnest!

We were all scared.

We rushed to see and found that there was indeed something growing under his hips. There was only a thin layer of skin and flesh left, and the bones seemed to be coming out of the flesh.

Zeng Rui's face looked very bad. He kept saying that it was just a bone spur, but who has a bone spur growing at both ends? I can see that he doesn't believe this statement himself, but he still insists that he won't let it go.

I really understand him. If it were me, I wouldn't want to believe it either, but I turned around and touched myself, and then I felt something growing on my hips.

The same thing happened to everyone else. Then everyone checked their whole bodies. I don't know medical skills, let alone orthopedics, but Zeng Rui said after the examination that everyone's bones were not right, but he didn't have any equipment, so he couldn't tell what was wrong.

We all know that aliens must have done something to us. They are doing experiments on us, and they are the kind of particularly sinister biochemical experiments, but no one can tell what the experiment is. Later, Wang Zhifei said that aliens must have used a reverse transcription gene virus on us.

I don't know what this virus is, let alone how to write it. I asked Wang Zhifei to find out which words it was.

He also said that this virus can directly change people's genes. He couldn't tell what would happen after the change. In short, good people would become waste, or monsters or even monkeys.

What he said was very scary. I didn't want to believe it, but I had to believe it.

And it's been six days, and our fever still hasn't subsided.

Also, the aliens have been coming very frequently these two days. I don't know what's wrong with them, but we all know they have bad intentions.

That day was a disaster day and the beginning of a nightmare. Now I can face it calmly, but at that time, it felt like the sky was falling - Zeng Rui's bones grew out!

It's not entirely correct to say that they grew out. It should be said that they penetrated the meat and fat and grew under the skin, but they didn't grow out anymore, but continued to grow horizontally under the skin.

Of course, this is all later. No one knew about this on March 4th. I can remember this day so clearly because the bones grew under the skin.

There is another thing that must be said. Since the bones started to grow, our appetite has been particularly good. Even the tasteless alien food can be eaten in one meal. Team Huang is particularly perseverant. He didn't eat for three days, but it was useless. The bones still grew. On the contrary, he lost a lot of weight because of the bones. His hearing was blurred and his vision was impaired. He almost died.

Finally, he listened to our advice and started eating. In less than three days, all the fat he lost grew back.

What the aliens gave us was not food, it was basically feed, and it was the kind with added ingredients!

March 4th was just the beginning. From that day on, the bones of my whole body grew out like bamboo shoots. It felt like all the bones in my body started to go crazy. In short, the bones grew out faster in places with thin flesh and more bones, and grew out slower in places with thick flesh and fewer bones.

The feeling of bones growing out of my whole body is indescribable. Can you imagine what it feels like to have your ribs and leg bones all growing out? Can you imagine what it feels like to have your arms and legs without any support and unable to move?

Some bones didn't grow much, such as the head, which didn't change much.

It's not just the physical pain, the psychological torture is even more crazy. It was around the end of March, and the bones on my waist grew out first. One morning, we woke up and found that Li Wenzhe had committed suicide with a laser pistol.

At this point, none of us blamed him anymore. No matter how bad the words were, they had already been said. When we saw his body, we felt heavy in our hearts. It was the kind of feeling of grief for the death of the rabbit, which was very sad and helpless.

Then the aliens came in. They not only dragged Li Wenzhe away, but also confiscated all the laser guns. Later, they took away the sabers and other items that could be used for suicide. They took away more than half of the things that were originally sent in, but left the tablet computer to us. The armor was never taken away. I don’t know what they were thinking.
