Chapter 48 Be Careful

"Patter."

A sound of light footsteps came from a distance.

This is a young man with short hair and long beard, covered in dust. The most iconic appearance is that he is holding a rice bag in his hand, which contains leaves from treetops, moldy flower rolls, and even rotten meat.

The man was working in a state-owned enterprise before the end of the day. He was young and promising, and he was valued by his boss. Before long, he would be sent abroad for further studies. At that time, he would be able to take the position of director as soon as he came back.

Parents are alive.

The wife is gentle.

There is also a pair of dragon and phoenix sons and daughters. It can be said that he is definitely a winner in life, but who would have thought that everything would change dramatically after he woke up at home.

The street is full of countless monsters, he can see clearly upstairs, the daughter of Brother Zhang next door, a cute junior high school student, always very polite when she sees herself, I heard that she has already taken the college entrance examination, it won't be long , will go to the most famous high school in the city, but the end comes...

A corpse-spotted beetle was crawling on her body, the beetle was the size of a calf, this cute girl was bitten in two with one bite, and the schoolbag was put aside, stained with the blood and internal organs of the owner.

panic.

The man was directly frightened. He tremblingly sealed the doors and windows of the house with tools. In this way, he spent more than ten days.

But today, he opened the door and window, tiptoed out of the room,

suicide?

Do not!

It was because he was too hungry, not only himself, but also his wife and two children hadn't had enough to eat for a long time. If they didn't find some food, they wouldn't even be able to last two days, and they would starve to death.

The state of men today will be as numerous as stars in the future.

Scavengers.

A profession at the bottom of the doomsday.

In the wild, they are like mice, wandering wantonly, leaving early and returning late every day, using scavenging to survive.

In a sense, this is the truest portrayal of the bottom survivors. They have no home and no strength, and because the terrain is remote, even troops and judges will not set foot there.

No land in this world is safe. Even the barren and defeated wilderness is still filled with countless bugs and zombies. These monsters wander around, hunting and killing humans for food.

In such an abandoned situation, the life of the survivors can be imagined.

Scavengers are the product of this cruel life. They go out early and return late, use their hands to pick up waste in the wild, and their food is mostly made of plants and fruits.

No matter how good a man was before, but now...

He was nothing more than a scavenger.

Carrion in a bag of rice.

Monsters in the wild will also fight and eat each other. This is the corpse of a blade mantis. It has been dead for an unknown period of time, and even the flesh has begun to rot, giving birth to maggots. But for men, this is also life-saving food.

He couldn't care less about it anymore.

The supermarket in the neighborhood was occupied by a group of zombies, he didn't dare to approach it at all, and there were too many dangers outside, so he could only try to find food nearby.

carrion.

Even if the meat cannot be eaten, the maggots in it can be used as protein to supplement physical strength after washing.

People are forced out. Those pampered and pampered rich people used to eat all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas. They are definitely a model of picky eaters.

But in this doomsday, food is definitely the most important material, not to mention delicacies from mountains and seas, even moldy steamed buns may trigger a bloody battle.

What kind of despair makes a proud son of heaven ecstatic when he sees maggots?

With the harsh environment and low strength, this situation will only get worse. Even some low-level humans have never tasted a piece of meat from birth to death.

Of course, there will be some exceptions.

Pigs, sheep, cattle, these meats are monopolized by the upper class, and ordinary people may not even touch them. However, there is a kind of meat that is extremely cheap, but it is easy to get.

That is...

human flesh.

When despair strikes, man becomes crazier than beast.

"The food is almost enough, tomorrow, I will come out tomorrow..."

A large-scale massacre took place in the community, and scattered meat and bones could be seen in any corner. Every step, even every second, was a torment for him.

"Meow meow……"

However, just as the man was about to go home, a weak voice startled him.

The man pushed aside the bushes, his body was tense, his eyes were full of alertness, there was no danger around him, he slowly started to move, and walked deep.

What came into view was a red creature.

It looked like a cat. It curled up and fell to the ground, whimpering from time to time, looking very weak.

"It's still alive, can I eat it?" The man was full of doubts. He took a branch and poked it lightly.

This thing is softer than the man imagined, it's hard to say, it's as if it has no bones, and the branches collapse into it with a light touch.

A dying cat?

The man's eyes were a little bright.

The taste of the cat is good, although the taste is not as delicate as the pork and the chewiness of the beef, but it is much stronger than the maggots in your hands.

smell?

In peaceful times, as a cat lover, how did he know?

Trapped at home, as early as the seventh day of the doomsday, he killed the fold-eared cat that had been with him for four years and accompanied him through loneliness, Barton, that was its name.

How sad!

There was some sadness in the man's eyes. He clearly remembered that he was so hungry that he broke the cat's neck with his own hands.

Raised from a young age, Barton is very humane, he doesn't shout or make trouble, and when he is busy with work, he always likes to lie quietly by his side, just like companionship.

It was even dawdling on his trouser legs when he broke Barton's neck.

Peel the skin and remove the bone.

Crying and gnawing off the shreds of meat on Barton's calf.

Do you regret it?

Sorry!

Squeezing his beloved pet to death, it was Barton who he watched grow up, cute Barton!

but.

"If you do it all over again, Barton, I will still eat you!"

so hungry!

I have never experienced hunger, and I have no idea what kind of pain it is!

If you don't kill Barton, your child, wife, and yourself will all die. There is no way, there is no way!

The man's pupils had already turned red, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Now it doesn't care whether the other party is dead or alive. As long as it can be eaten, everything is not a problem.

Scavengers who will devour anything they can fit into their mouths.

Even though the cat in front of him was a bit weird, the man had already considered not to think about it so much. He stretched out his hand, wanting to hug it back and have a good meal.

The man stretched out his hand, and just as his fingers were about to touch this weird cat, it suddenly split apart...

split? !

"Crack."

The cat's body suddenly split open, revealing the white flesh and blood inside, filled with bile and white things, like brains and some proteins magnified countless times, and what surprised the man most was a tentacles-like The top of the head, facing itself upright.

Where's the cat?

"call out!"

The tentacles suddenly straightened, and then a needle-sized thing pierced into the man's chest.

"What the hell!"

The man turned pale with fright, he felt a sudden pain in his chest, he tore off his clothes, only to see a sharp thorn protruding from his chest.

Cold, numb, stiff, dazed...

The man's consciousness is slowly disappearing, his vision is dim, like a dark night, the light is lost in an instant, fear is spreading, it hurriedly wants to escape home, but the pace is much slower than imagined.

His pupils gradually enlarged, and after a while, the two pupils were completely covered by pitch black, the skin was loose, starting from the chest, the skin seemed to have been scalded by boiling water, and gradually became wrinkled, only a few minutes later...

His body was melting like a candle, his skin and blood turned into a viscous red liquid, and this liquid slowly flowed into the split cat corpse.

After devouring the entire corpse, the red foreign object slowly began to squirm, and after a while, a dark red human-like body appeared on the ground.

Dark red blood was flowing from the man's lips, and there was even half a maggot corpse on it, but it ignored it, like a puppet, and issued weak words from its throat.

"Huiyi, Xiaopeng, Xiaofei..."

The man was lying on the ground, muttering some names in his mouth, shockingly, he replaced the previous corpse and became a new bait.

unknown creature.

Perhaps the man's fate came to a horrifying end the moment he heard the cry...

end.

In addition to some obvious dangers, there are also weird crises entrenched in the quiet corners.

Darkness fell.

If you want to live, you must be careful, and then be careful...
