213. Searching for Relatives in the Last Days (9) (1/2)

Wei Mingyan was finally lifted into the car and placed on the small bed.

When ordinary people evolve into superpowers, some strange changes will occur in their bodies. For example, Liang Mingxuan's injured leg no longer feels any pain at this moment.

Wei Mingyan opened the curtains and leaned against the car window to watch the three people sharpening their knives to eat crabs.

Feng Xinglu's eyes had never been as bright as today. He waved the kitchen knife that he had used to chop the fighting chicken with anticipation, muttering, "Steamed crab, casserole crab, crab vermicelli stewed with seaweed tofu, crab soup..."

Cheng Miao limped to the side, looking a little puzzled, "Are you going to choose one from these?"

"How could that be."

Feng Xinglu swung the knife and chopped off the crab legs with spikes with a mysterious smile, "Only children will make choices, and adults will of course take them all. Such a big crab is enough for us to eat for a long time..."

-- Clang!

The kitchen knife that had survived the fighting chicken was broken.

The smile on Feng Xinglu's face froze.

Liang Mingxuan, who stood aside and occasionally looked back at her brother, frowned and said, "I'll do it."

She took the axe handed over by Cheng Miao, and with her hands, which were more powerful than before due to the awakening of superpowers, she took a breath and chopped it down hard!

——Crack!

The blade of the hammer was tripped out directly, and when it fell heavily to the ground, it was found that it also had a hole.

Several people were silent.

Could it be that this crab was made of steel?

Especially Feng Xinglu, who was rubbing his hands excitedly and wanted to show off his skills to make a crab feast after discovering that it was not a zombie beast, was even more unwell.

"I'm good at cooking crabs. You really don't want to eat such a big one?"

"Forget it."

Cheng Miao saw that his whole face was about to wrinkle with sadness, and stretched out his big hand to pat his shoulder, "Look at this crab, it looks weird, and there is a turtle shell on its back. It's probably not very delicious. If you can't eat it, you can't eat it."

Feng Xinglu looked up at the crab tied up with five flowers pitifully, "Brother Cheng, that's a snail shell."

After saying that, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, "In fact, turtle soup is also very delicious, and it is very nourishing..."

Cheng Miao: "..." Forget it, I can't talk to the chef.

Since I can't eat it, I have to kill it.

But how to kill crabs.

Feng Xinglu, who has experience in eating crabs, said, "In the past, when eating crabs, I used chopsticks to pass through them directly, or I just poured them and put them in the pot."

After saying that, he swallowed his saliva again at the huge crab in front of him.

Then the question is, where can we find such big chopsticks and so much wine to make such a big crab drunk.

The three people looked at each other, and they couldn't think of any solution.

"Sister——"

Wei Mingyan leaned on the car window and called.

Liang Mingxuan hurried over and looked at her brother worriedly, "Why are you sitting up? Lie down quickly, are you hungry? Otherwise, I will get you something to eat first."

Feng Xinglu felt his teeth start to hurt again.

This touching sister-brother relationship can actually turn a big iceberg beauty into such a tender and affectionate appearance.

What made his teeth hurt the most was Wei Mingyan who pretended to be "I am very good".

"I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of a book I read before, which is a bit like this crab." Liang Mingxuan thought of her brother who never read books before, and coughed lightly. She definitely didn't want to discourage his enthusiasm, and asked softly, "Go on." "Didn't I like bizarre stories before? Then I read about a parasite called Diplococcus, which invades the body of a snail, controls its nerve center, and drills into the snail's eyes to sway around to attract birds. Do you think it looks like the crab's eyes?" Liang Mingxuan turned her head and took a look half-believingly. Sure enough, the two very conspicuous, seemingly rotten and swollen crab eyes were still swaying unwillingly, looking very disgusting. "You mean, there are parasites in the eyes of this crab?" She hesitated and looked at the snail shell as high as a mountain. "What about the snail shell?" "The trematode only parasitizes on snails, and this crab has a snail shell on its back, so I think it is the trematode. If that's the case, try to look down its tentacles, maybe it will work." Liang Mingxuan nodded, turned to the side of the big crab entangled by vines, raised her head and looked at its bulging eyes, and it seemed like something was sliding up and down inside. She closed her eyes, and the grass on the ground, which was originally just a bunch of small grass, suddenly jumped up, like a sharp knife, stabbing at the big eyes of the crab monster. The eyes of the big crab, which was extremely hard all over, seemed to be made of paper, and the grass blade easily cut it off by the roots. ——Bang! Two fat big insects fell down and kept struggling and rolling on the ground. The big crab that was struggling in the net made by plants suddenly became quiet. The claws that had nowhere to go stretched out from the net with difficulty and stabbed the big insect that had been living in his eyes for a long time.

——Sizzle

The sound of juice that could be heard by the naked eye resounded in the ears of everyone present. Feng Xinglu, who was full of food just now, looked at the big insect rolling and dripping with juice with a pale face. He couldn't help it for a few times, and turned around and retched.

Parasites, the nightmare of every food lover.

After witnessing this scene, he felt that he would never want to eat crabs again in his life!

Ugh——

***

The 73rd day of the end of the world

The weather started to get colder. At first, people had to endure the sweat and put on heavy clothes to resist the zombies' bites. Now, if they don't wear thicker clothes, their faces will turn pale.

But when the doomsday came, people were only concerned with running for their lives, and they didn't remember to bring clothes. As a result, most people could only endure it or risk their lives to find supplies outside the base where there were crises everywhere.

Chen Gang was in the last case. He had superpowers. Although it was useless water, it was different from ordinary people. Unlike the fire system with attack power, those who had connections in the water system went to the water plant. Not only was the work not tiring, but the rewards were also high. Those who had no connections like Chen Gang had to follow the team to divert the river into the newly built moat around the base.

Since the research found that zombies could not swim after entering the water, the base began to recruit a large number of earth and water superpowers, and dug a moat in just a few days.

Chen Gang thought he would die after being scratched by zombies to protect his wife. Unexpectedly, he not only survived but also became a superpower. Although the water system is useless, at least his body will be much better than before.

Relying on his good health, he worked hard to earn food before building the moat, so that he could support his pregnant wife and old mother. Later, when the moat was recruiting people, he hurried to go. Although the food was not as much as the water plant, it was still more than what he earned from working hard every day.

Originally, it was enough to have enough food, but now the weather is getting colder and colder. Chen Gang's wife is about to give birth. It should be a good thing, but he is worried and can't sleep every day.

Let's not talk about how delicate the newborn baby is. Just his wife who is about to have confinement. Although their family conditions were not good before, they could at least stew a chicken and buy a fish to make up for it. As a result, now that the end of the world has come, he can't even get a thick quilt.

The weather was getting colder and colder, and the baby was about to be born. The old mother was more afraid of the cold as she got older. The family huddled together in one bed every day and still had cold feet all night. Chen Gang now had nightmares, dreaming that his wife, children, and old mother were frozen to death. He was so scared that he dared not close his eyes.

Some people advised him optimistically that the cold weather was only temporary and might not be cold soon, but Chen Gang's mother said that she heard from the older generation that there was nothing good in a disaster year. It was cold now and it would only get colder in the future.

So this time, when a team was going out to find winter clothes and quilts to resell and needed a water-based superpower to follow the car to provide water, Chen Gang quickly changed shifts with others, took the points he had earned in three days, exchanged five steamed buns with the base, stuffed them into the manager, and successfully entered the team.

After he entered, he begged the person who looked like the manager, saying that he didn't want anything, just a thick quilt to cover his wife who was about to give birth at home, and he didn't want the team to find the quilt, he got off the car and followed to find it.

Chen Gang was humble and pleading. The manager thought that the team members could take 10% of the materials they found, so he agreed to give Chen Gang one quilt for every ten he found.

Therefore, every time the convoy stopped and needed to search, Chen Gang was always the one with the fastest legs and feet. Of course, he was also very careful. He was the only pillar of the family, and he would protect himself even for his family.

On the third day after following the convoy, after experiencing countless risks, Chen Gang had found nine quilts. As long as he found the last one, he could exchange one for his family.

Because the deputy captain promised him that the last one would be considered as one he found for himself, Chen Gang was particularly careful this time. There were three people in his family now, and there would be four people in the future. Of course, the bigger the quilt, the better.

The convoy stopped at a large supermarket. The first to enter were the highly paid superpowers. They would clean the zombies first, and then the search team would go in.

Of course, this is a strange place. There are always places that the superpowers cannot clean. Zombies may suddenly jump out from one place. Therefore, in the past three days, no matter how careful we are, there are still casualties.

The most dangerous time was when we encountered a mutant plant. When the superpowers entered, it disguised itself as an ordinary plant and did not arouse vigilance. That time, the search team went in with fifteen people, but only five came out, with heavy casualties.

Chen Gang was in the opposite building at the time and survived, but since then, he has to observe carefully before entering any place, take two steps and look four times, and he just wants to force himself into a magnifying glass, for fear that something will happen and he will not be able to run away in time.

Today, this supermarket has been robbed at first glance. Chen Gang does not hold much hope, but he still carefully goes to the second floor with a flashlight, his legs tight, ready to escape at any time.

More than two months have passed since the end of the world. The supermarkets that should have been emptied have already been emptied. Chen Gang went to the duty room as usual, but was disappointed to find that the bed was empty. He sighed and was about to leave when he found a bag hanging by the window, which vaguely contained a baby bottle. Thinking of the child who was about to be born at home, his eyes lit up, and he hurried to the bed to take the bag down, rubbed his frozen hands and carefully put it in his arms. As soon as he put it down and raised his eyes, Chen Gang's face turned pale. From his angle, he could clearly see that at the corner less than 100 meters away from their convoy, a huge crab carrying something was slowly crawling over. Was it a zombie beast? Or a mutant beast? But no matter which one it was, it was so big that the convoy could only run for its life.

Chen Gang hurriedly rushed out of the door, shouting that he was in danger. The members of the search team didn't understand why, but they still ran out with him.

In the end times, everyone is a frightened bird.

The person in charge of observing the convoy downstairs also found the monster. The car started, the door opened, and everyone was notified to evacuate.

Chen Gang just stepped out of the supermarket, and the bag suddenly fell out of his arms. He hurried to pick it up, but was knocked to the ground by the search team members who rushed out.

When Chen Gang limped and picked up the bottle and ran towards the car, the car had already driven quite far.

"Chen Gang! Come here quickly! Hurry up!"

The deputy captain called him in the last car, and Chen Gang hurriedly ran in that direction. Unexpectedly, even if his feet were painful, he couldn't walk at all.

The giant crab had already come over, and the convoy couldn't wait for him in this situation. Chen Gang could only watch the car leave quickly in despair. On the empty street, he was the only human left.

He moved his feet with difficulty, trying to hide in the supermarket, but he didn't know if he had just been hit, his feet softened and he fell directly to the ground.

——Boom!

The crab leg was already beside him, raising a cloud of dust.

At the last moment of his life, Chen Gang thought of his old mother, his pregnant wife, and that... child he hadn't seen yet.

He closed his eyes in pain, waiting for death with tears on his face.

The crab leg stopped.

"Hey, brother, how do I get to base e?" A clear voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Chen Gang opened his eyes in confusion and fear. This voice seemed to come from above?

Above?

He looked at the crab leg beside him tremblingly, and the sharp thorns on it were clearly visible.

As if sensing his sight, the crab leg moved and changed its posture.

Chen Gang looked at this scene, his eyes went dark, and he fainted directly.

Oh my god, the crab has become a spirit!

The author has something to say: Sorry for updating so late. I fell asleep as soon as I got home last night. When I woke up, I was confused.

I felt so sad taking the train. I didn’t know it meant I had to get off when they came to exchange my ticket. If a pretty lady hadn’t come up with the ticket to put my luggage, I would have missed my stop…

I’m so carsick that I still feel dizzy after sleeping for a whole day. I’ll go lie down for a while. Good night, everyone.
