"Hey... Pao'er, you don't feel any discomfort, do you?"

When he thought of the husky eating those fleshy insects, Zhang Ning felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet, straight to the Tianling Cap above his head, making his eyes dizzy.

Compared to Zhang Ning's worry, there was no other expression on the husky's face. The high-raised tail swayed from side to side, the dog's mouth was slightly grinned, and a big tongue was hanging on the side as it kept panting. It seemed that he was in a mood. Very nice look.

"It's over, this stupid dog hasn't realized what stupid thing he has done..."

He patted his forehead with his palm, and a helpless expression appeared on Zhang Ning's face.

Although Zhang Ning was worried, now that he had eaten the mountain cannon, could it be possible for him to spit it out?

When Zhang Ning was a child, he was playing at his grandfather's house in the countryside. He once encountered someone who accidentally took pesticides. The situation was urgent. In order to prevent the pesticides from being absorbed by the body, the villagers fed the person feces to induce vomiting. Effect.

But feeding shit to a dog to induce vomiting? Let’s not talk about where to find shit, this dog just eats shit!

"Forget it, let's take a look at the condition of this insect first. If it is completely burned to death and loses its activity, maybe it won't be a big deal if the mountain cannon eats it..."

Squatting down, Zhang Ning did not dare to grab it directly with his hands. Instead, he used a kitchen knife to scoop up a fleshy insect not far away and held it in front of him for a closer look.

The insect was about ten centimeters long. After being roasted by the flames for some unknown reason, it swelled up and became almost as thick as a carrot. Its surface was white with a hint of burnt yellow, and there was a faint white steam evaporating from it. out.

If one ignores the origin of this fleshy bug at this moment, looking at the appearance in front of him can really arouse some appetite.

But the scene where the white-collar zombies "scattered flowers" was so shocking that Zhang Ning had no idea of ​​trying to eat bugs.

"It looks like it is completely dead. I hope there are no eggs or anything like that in this insect..."

Throwing the bug on the kitchen knife to the ground again, he raised his hand and dropped the knife. His fleshy body was easily divided into two by the kitchen knife.

The touch from the tip of the knife was very strange, like cutting a peeled egg, but this egg had no yolk and was entirely composed of protein, which made Zhang Ning feel very elastic.

White steam surged out from the insect's body as the kitchen knife cut it off, and a unique fragrance poured into Zhang Ning's nasal cavity, making him take a few breaths of it.

"This stuff really smells good..."

Flipping half of the bugs on the ground back and forth, Zhang Ning discovered that the flesh of this creature was very thick. After being roasted by the flames, it puffed up like bread, which nearly doubled its original size.

The internal organs in the body are much smaller than the fat body, and only occupy a small position in the corner. It seems that as long as those internal organs are removed, this fleshy insect will be a very clean piece of white meat.

After carefully examining it for a long time, Zhang Ning finally put his heart back into his stomach after confirming that the parts inside had been thoroughly roasted by the fire.

"It seems there shouldn't be any problem. Since you like to eat mountain cannon, then just eat it..."

Ignoring the steaming insects on the ground, Zhang Ning took a deep breath and prepared to get up and go home.

But as soon as he raised his head, the mountain gun's dog

The face appeared in front of him, and at some point there was another roasted fleshy insect in his wide open mouth. The expression on his face seemed to tell Zhang Ning how delicious this insect was.

"No, thank you, I'm not hungry..."

Resisting the urge in his heart to grab the dog's head and drag it over to beat him, Zhang Ning twitched the corners of his mouth, gently pushed the dog's face away, and stood up from the ground.

The jeans zombie at the center of the burning has now turned into a charred corpse, and next to it lies a shriveled, headless corpse, also highly charred.

On the surface, the two zombies were naturally dead and could no longer be dead, but Zhang Ning was still a little worried. He stepped forward in two or three steps, cut open the surface of the corpse with a kitchen knife, and examined it.

The body of the jeans zombie was just burned by the fire, and there was no abnormality in the body. Zhang Ning found that many fleshy insects gathered at the mouth and nose of the corpse, apparently trying to get into the opponent's body.

However, the fire was so fierce that it cooked them all, completely cutting off any hope of survival.

On the other hand, the shriveled white-collar zombie with no human shape had an empty body. Except for some bones that supported the body, almost all the internal organs had disappeared. It looked like a human skin puppet, which looked extremely weird.

"It seems that these bugs are parasitic in the bodies of white-collar zombies and feed on their internal organs..."

After briefly flipping through it to confirm that there was nothing fishy in it, Zhang Ning glanced at the corner not far away.

There is also a charred head there, which was torn off by the mountain cannon from the neck of the white-collar zombie. After being roasted by the fire, the small legs under the head were also curled and scorched. It seemed that the insects inside had been burned by the high temperature. Killed, unable to move the head anymore.

"One body can be divided into two parts and can be controlled independently. This kind of insect is not simple..."

Muttering in his mouth, Zhang Ning quickly walked to the charred head without much pause, and with a stroke of luck, he slashed open the head of the white-collar zombie.

But the expected black liquid did not appear, instead it was a ball of white stuff that was chopped open with a kitchen knife.

This thing is somewhat similar to the fleshy insects on the ground, but its body is not long, but in the shape of a hemisphere.

A dozen tiny legs stretched out from the bottom, passed through the skull, and penetrated into the blackened flesh.

Zhang Ning tried to use the kitchen knife to move the exposed little foot. As he moved, the hemispherical fleshy insect began to tremble slightly, but this was not because it was still alive. It was just that the movement of the kitchen knife touched its body. The limbs made it move.

"The natural world is really wonderful..."

After complaining in a low voice, Zhang Ning simply wiped the kitchen knife on the charred corpse, got up and walked towards home.

Now that the surrounding zombies have been cleared, we must seize the time to call our parents downstairs.

After all, getting to the Siming Mountain Refuge is the main goal. The sooner we can leave, the better for the safety of Zhang Ning’s parents.

Entering the house, Zhang's father and Zhang's mother had already packed their bags. When they saw their son coming up, they immediately gathered around to check. Seeing that Zhang Ning was not injured, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Although on the surface they were relieved to let Zhang Ning go downstairs to explore, the two elders were actually still worried. After all, which parent would really be willing to let their child go downstairs to explore?

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Children take risks.

"Mom and Dad, I checked just now. There are no zombies near downstairs, and there are no zombies in the open-air parking lot. Let's hurry up. Now is the best chance to get out of here!"

Lifting the backpack next to the shoe cabinet, Zhang Ning inserted the kitchen knife into the outermost part. This bag was sorted out by him last night. In addition to a few bottles of cold drinks, there was also a set of daily changes of clothes and a funny-looking dog. Squirtle toys.

He put his backpack on his back with his backhand. The handle of the kitchen knife was right behind him, and he could easily pull it out with just a slight stretch of his hand.

"let's go."

Seeing that his parents were ready, Zhang Ning opened the door directly and walked out first.

Although Zhang Ning had just explored the surrounding environment, he was still very cautious. After all, he was followed by his parents. If something went wrong, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Zhang's father and Zhang's mother were also very careful, always observing the surrounding situation after walking out of the corridor.

Last night, Zhang Ning taught them about the secondary infection's ability to use sound to hunt prey, so the two of them specially put on soft-soled sneakers. This could greatly prevent the sound of footsteps from attracting the attention of zombies. When in danger, Can also escape easily.

But after walking a few steps, Father Zhang seemed to suddenly think of something, patted Zhang Ning in front of him, and asked in a low voice.

"Son? Where did the mountain cannon go?"

Zhang Ning was slightly stunned when he heard this, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

Where have you gone? Could it be that the mountain cannon was eating the fleshy insects crawling out of the corpse? If the truth were told, I would have to scare the old man to death...

I was having a headache on how to explain to my parents, when a huge dog head poked out from around the corner not far away and met Zhang Ning and others' eyes.

"Mountain gunner, come here quickly!"

Zhang Ning shouted in a low voice, although this stupid dog is greedy, but fortunately it was not off the chain at the critical moment. With it by its parents' side, the safety factor can be improved a bit.

Seeing that the husky was safe and sound, the two elders finally put their hearts back in their stomachs. The three of them and one dog moved forward quickly and soon arrived at the open-air parking lot.

Since it was a pickup truck, there were only two seats in the cab. Initially, Zhang’s mother wanted Zhang Ning to squeeze into the passenger seat with her.

After all, the cab is a closed space after all. Sitting in it can provide some protection, but the carriage behind is completely open. If there are any problems on the way, the open-air carriage will bear the brunt.

However, Zhang Ning ultimately rejected her mother's proposal because of her special health.

Anyway, he is technically a death-level zombie. As long as he does not encounter flying phase-level zombies or mutated creatures, his life is not in danger.

But if you encounter those flying creatures, sitting in the cab cannot completely avoid the danger. At best, it can only delay death.

The pickup truck slowly drove out of the parking lot and headed towards the entrance of the community.

There was also a black Ducati parked there, which Zhang Ning drove out of Lu Yu's home.

The performance of this motorcycle is excellent, so Zhang Ning does not intend to abandon it, but thinks of placing it on the bed of a pickup truck and taking it with him to the Siming Mountain Refuge...
