End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen
Chapter 140: Insect Plague
Lu Zhu and Xie Tang walked out of the mall together. The city, which was originally sparsely populated, now felt even quieter.
Lu Zhu let Zhizhi lead the way in front, and they followed behind. Sure enough, in another room two streets away from them, they saw an astonishing scene.
Xie He couldn't help but scream.
Three people lay dead on the ground, and their deaths were extremely horrific.
One was lying on a torn mattress, looking very miserable, like a mummy, but judging by the color of his skin, he was probably sleeping when he died.
The other one was next to the fire. He was probably warming himself by the fire, but his body was twisted, as if he was trying to grab something behind him, but he couldn't, and his body was drained.
The last one was farther away from them, lying on the ground, trying hard to crawl forward.
He must have realized something was wrong and wanted to escape but failed.
Lu Zhu took out a pair of food-safe disposable gloves that were commonly used before the apocalypse from his pocket and put them on calmly.
I took a quick look at the first body and its appearance.
The skin is still elastic, the eyes are open and very wide, there are some reddish spots on the neck, chest, thighs and arms, and they feel a little swollen.
It looks like a rash, but there are no other external injuries.
Lu Zhu is not a professional forensic doctor, so he could only take a quick look. The second person also had no obvious external injuries, but also had many red spots on his body.
The third person was the same, with no obvious external injuries, just rashes and swelling.
"How did they die?" Xie Tang asked, holding her sister's hand.
"I don't know ~ Maybe it's those mutated mosquitoes you encountered last night..." Lu Zhu took off his gloves and threw them on the ground, replying indifferently.
"Mutated mosquitoes? But those mosquitoes last night had very big mouths. Apart from some red spots on their bodies, it's hard to tell that they were bitten by that mosquito!" Xie Tang was a little surprised, looking at the dried corpse still on the ground with uncertain eyes.
"Maybe it's their peculiarity after being alienated. Have you ever seen such a big mosquito before?" Lu Zhu turned his head to look at Xie Tang and walked out.
Xie Tang did not hesitate to pull his sister Xie He and follow behind Lu Zhu.
"But how can mosquitoes suck people dry? They are almost like mummies ~ Too scary!" Xie Tang followed Lu Zhu's footsteps. Although he was holding his sister, he handled it very well.
Xie He was afraid and did not dare to fall behind, so he followed his brother closely with big strides.
"Maybe they have evolved now and can liquefy everything in the human body. I remember it was mentioned in the biology book that spiders seem to have this skill." Lu Zhu said slowly, his eyes constantly looking around.
She took out her whistle and blew it gently, calling back the squeak.
I don't know where he went, he disappeared in a flash.
Lu Zhu’s idea is good. Today’s mosquitoes have evolved to have the ability to liquefy. If multiple mosquitoes feed on one prey together, they can suck the person dry.
We visited a few more places and found some daily necessities such as drinking water, food, biscuits and so on.
Lu Zhu didn't collect any of the things, and asked Xie Tang and his sister to collect them all. At first, they just carried them in plastic bags, and later they found snakeskin bags to put them in.
Finally, they really couldn't lift it anymore. Xie Tang was too tired, but he couldn't bear to throw it away. Fortunately, he came across a pedal tricycle at the next place. It had a small bag, which was just right for him to put all the things in.
"Aren't you going back to where you live?" Lu Zhu reminded them tactfully. They followed her all the way.
"Ah!" Xie Tang was stunned for a moment and scratched his head subconsciously. He had forgotten about it.
"Sister, aren't you going to join us?" Xie He asked timidly.
"I have something else to do. I was just passing by." Lu Zhu answered gently. She could see that the little girl must have been frightened before. She was extremely timid.
"Let's divide these things equally! You deserve it." Xie Tang frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Lu Zhu didn't even look at it, and smiled faintly. "What did you find for me? Keep it for yourself! You still have to support your sister!"
"But~" Xie Tang wanted to say something, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Zhizhi appearing out of nowhere again.
Rubbing against Luzhu's feet! She meowed...
Lu Zhu bent down and picked up Zhizhi, "You've gained a lot of weight recently, it's time to lose weight~"
Lu Zhu hugged the fat cat in his arms lovingly, and meowed unconvincedly to express his dissatisfaction.
"I'm leaving, take care~" He waved his squeaky paw and said goodbye to Xie Tang and his sister.
Watching Lu Zhu walking away, Xie He took two steps forward and grabbed Xie Tang's hand.
"Brother~ Can we see my sister again?" Although they had only been together for a short time, Xie He liked this sister for no reason.
Xie Tang didn't say anything, his hand gradually tightened, holding his sister's hand~
Lu Zhu's sixth sense told him that the bugs this time were unusual, and there must be more than one kind.
She now had to find a safe place to hide, otherwise she might encounter these things on the road.
Although you are not afraid, there are bugs everywhere. It would be very uncomfortable if a small bug got into your nose or ear.
There are no doctors or nurses now. If these things really get in, it will be fatal.
She just wants to live in this life, she doesn't want to stay here~
Lu Zhu looked around and saw some figures in some corners and through door cracks and windows.
As expected, there are still some people here who are still alive. As for those who died, it was just their bad luck. They happened to be outside and the mutated mosquitoes came.
Smelling a lot of strangers, Zhizhi's eyes were rolling around, observing the place where the figures appeared.
There was no sound at all, just like the silence before hunting.
"Little sister, stop for a moment~" A rough voice sounded behind Lu Zhu!
Lu Zhu turned around calmly. The person who came didn't come with good intentions!
About six or seven meters in front of her stood a middle-aged man in his forties, with messy hair and untidy beard, but a pair of cunning eyes.
How to say it! It feels like the eunuch in the palace, except that he is a eunuch in trouble.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Lu Zhu was not afraid and looked at him coldly.
"My name is Cheng Xin, they all call me Uncle Cheng. I've taken a fancy to the cat in your hand. I hope you can stay here safely, otherwise ~ hehe... you know what I'm doing." Cheng Xin smiled sinisterly, looking more like a eunuch.
Lu Zhu listened and watched, and the more he looked, the more it looked like that, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny?" Cheng Xin was furious, his eyes narrowed dangerously.
"Hahaha~" Lu Zhu laughed even more happily. His angry look made him look more like a eunuch~
"Don't laugh~" Cheng Xin roared!
Seeing his anger, Lu Zhu managed to stop laughing and said:
"What am I laughing at? The person who threatened me last time was the same person last time. Do you think you know where he is?" His face was indifferent, but there was no smile in Lu Zhu's eyes. Instead, there was a cold light flashing in them.
