Everyone's eyes lit up and they immediately rushed from the place where the insect queen fell, as if they were chasing a kite with a broken string.
The flying insect queen was already not far from the ground. The opponent suddenly fell from mid-air, and immediately drew an arc and fell in the other direction. Below him, Lin Feng and others were chasing after him frantically.
At this moment, a group of people are gathering here a few miles away. They are chasing a group of mutated cats. These mutated cat groups will launch sneak attacks on their villages every night.
"Fifth brother, where did those beasts go? They clearly escaped in this direction just now, but why did they disappear in the blink of an eye?"
One of them said in confusion that a middle-aged man in his forties standing next to him was none other than Hu Laowu, who had robbed Li Guang and the others before. He was also the Hujiazhai from Wangshui Township. This group of people All of them are from Hujiazhai.
"Look carefully for me. Those beasts are very cunning. Although they are not very strong, they are all very clever. If you don't want the claws of that beast to dig out the meat on your necks, you can do it." Open your eyes wide for me!"
Hu Laowu looked around for a week. Although the size of these mutated cats was not much different from before the apocalypse, their claws had become extremely sharp. Moreover, these beasts either did not attack, but when they attacked, they targeted people's weak points. Most of the people who died under these mutated cats had their necks scratched with bloody wounds.
When everyone thought of those mutated cats that died tragically and how miserable the people under their claws were, they all got goosebumps. Several young people even couldn't help but touch them. My own neck, they are all young people from Hujiacun, in their twenties, and they all came out this time to follow the fifth brother who came out purely to gain courage.
"Fifth brother, do you see something falling from the sky? Damn it, it looks like a fucking caterpillar."
At this moment, a young man suddenly discovered something on the horizon in the distance, flying towards them. It was more like falling than flying.
At first he couldn't see clearly what it was, but when he saw it clearly, he suddenly showed a look of astonishment. Hu Laowu and the rest of the people in Hujiacun have also discovered this weird thing that fell from the horizon in the distance. Hu Laowu's expression changed slightly, let alone what this weird thing is. , but the aura exuding from the other party made him swallow his saliva. This thing was definitely stronger than him.
That powerful aura made him instinctively want to turn around and run away, even if there were so many young people from the Hu family watching around him.
But after he saw the appearance of this thing clearly, he was stunned for a moment, because at this moment this thing seemed a bit embarrassed, with wounds all over its body, and even bleeding while flying. It was so bloody and miserable that Hu Laowu was puzzled.
"Fifth brother, what the hell is this thing? It seems to have flown from the south. That place in the south seems to be a bug nest."
A middle-aged man in his thirties said thoughtfully that he was considered an old man in Hujiacun. Normally, he would go in all directions with Hujiacun as the center to search for anything that could be used as supplies.
So he went to quite a few places. If he walked a few miles ahead, there would be a forest there. The forest was not that strange, but there were many insects in that forest. Going in and out, at first there were a few curious young people in Hujia Village, who wanted to go to the woods to see what mysteries were there, but they never came back. .
Later, this insect nest was listed as a forbidden area by their Hujia Village, and many homemade landmines were even laid along the way to prevent the insects in the insect nest from discovering their Hujia Village. Fortunately, it was not far from their home. , the distance between this insect nest is not very close, so except for the regulations, no one in the village is allowed to go outside this insect nest, so they don’t take it too seriously.
"Since it flew from that place, this thing should be an insect, and judging from its fat head and big ears, it should be an insect queen."
After all, Hu Laowu is doing business outside. At least he knows a little bit of common sense. He knows that there is a queen in the insect. Otherwise, how would he mate and reproduce? And the queens are often fat-headed and big-eared, looking like caterpillars.
Although the current insect queen has a pair of wings on its back that can fly, it is not so strange that the insect queen can fly. For example, the ant queen can fly.
boom
At this time, the shaky insect queen finally lost strength, and then fell in front of Hu Laowu and others. The distance between them was only three to four hundred meters.
"Fifth Brother, why don't we go over and see how this worm queen looks so fat and big-headed? Maybe it can be eaten."
The middle-aged man next to him said.
"The weather has been getting colder and colder recently. It is estimated that this year will enter the twelfth lunar month of winter earlier than in previous years. The food reserves in our village are not much. This thing may not be edible by then, but the grease on his body will be You can also squeeze it out to make oil lamps. I heard this seems to be called bioenergy. These things can generate electricity."
Hu Laowu's eyes flickered when he heard this, and then he waved his hand.
"Everyone is following me."
Everyone present nodded, and then followed Hu Laowu and slowly groped towards an insect queen. Some young people seemed to be a little nervous. They all heard from people in the village. Having experienced bug nests, I know that there are many bugs in that place, and people like them never come back.
It didn't take long for them to arrive at the insect queen. Everyone was extremely nervous at first, but when they saw the insect queen at close range, their first reaction was that it was huge. This insect queen was really too big. It was huge, almost the size of a heavy tank, but at this moment, the head-worm queen was covered in wounds and was lying on the ground just crawling there.
"Why does this guy have so many injuries? The wounds seem to be eye-catching. Are there humans attacking him? Are they the ones from Dawn Base?"
The middle-aged man squatted down and carefully checked the week window, then looked back at Hu Laowu.
Hu Laowu narrowed his eyes slightly, and he also discovered that the injuries on the insect queen were really shocking.
"Nine times out of ten, it will be Dawn Base. Only they have the strength and dare to attack monsters of this strength. Only they dare not be afraid of death and go to the insect nest to seek death."
"Fifth brother, what should we do with this insect? It seems to be dead."
All the people in Hujiazhai all looked at Hu Laowu.
Hu Laowu weighed it for a moment, then pointed at a young man and said.
"Hurry up and bring that truck over. We must get this bug back. Then we can drain all the grease from his body and use it to make oil lamp materials. It can even be used to generate electricity. You know, something like this Animal fats and oils are generally biodiesel, which can be used to replace diesel fuel. We also have diesel engines there, and we can use these fats and diesel fuel mixed with them, which can also save part of the diesel consumption."
"OK."
The young man ran back immediately without saying a word. He drove a truck before the apocalypse.
"As for this insect, it's not that easy to die."
Hu Laowu's eyes fell on the motionless insect queen, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. Although the insect queen had no reaction now, he could faintly feel a faint breath of life. Regardless of whether he pretends to be dead or not, Hu Laowu is certain of one thing, that is, he is at the end of his tether with this insect queen.
After bringing it back to Hujia Village, the first thing to do is to kill the queen and then extract its oil. Energy materials used to get them through this cold winter.
Soon the heavy truck drove over, and all the men helped to move the insect queen into the truck. This insect queen looked very fat and bloated, but when they went to move it in person, they realized that it was An insect queen is far heavier than it looks, almost like a rock.
No, rock can no longer be used to describe a heavy thing. They are all black iron warriors, and they are all very high-level black iron warriors. The so-called rock is nothing at all.
But when they tried to move the insect queen, they realized what heaviness meant. The young men around Hu Laowu were not just some salted fish waiting to die. They all counted. They are the elites in the village, the best among the young generation in Hujia Village. The weakest are already at the seventh level, and the strongest are at the ninth level.
It can be said that the strength is very impressive, the strength in the hands can be said to be tens of thousands of kilograms at least. However, with such strength and such power, a group of them are gnashing their teeth, showing blue veins, sweating profusely, and spent a lot of time. It was with all his strength that he moved the bloated insect queen onto the truck.
The moment they put the truck on, everyone began to worry again. They were worried about whether the wheels of the truck could bear it. This kind of truck is already the kind of earth-moving truck on the construction site that can carry a lot of money. of tonnage, but the moment this one was thrown from the back, the truck's tires burst.
In the end, they had no choice but to get a truck-mounted crane. In addition to this crane, there is also a heavy-duty truck, which was used to pull new cars to some 4S stores. Even so, they were only able to transport the insect queen away, and many people watching were worried that their tires would burst again on the way.
Fortunately, this time there was no danger along the way. No puncture was found.
"Fifth brother is back, please open the door quickly."
The boys on guard at the entrance of Hujia Village saw it in the distance. The heavy trucks and cranes that came slowly opened the village gate without saying a word. They built a wall outside their village, forming a simple defensive measure.
After the gate of the wall was opened, a group of people looked curiously at the heavy truck driving in the distance. When they saw the huge insect tied to the truck, everyone showed an unbelievable look, and even Many people are even more curious and want to rub their hands to find out what this bloated thing is?
"Everyone, please keep your distance. This is the queen we caught from the insect nest. She is full of poison, so don't get close."
Hu Laowu roared and then drove the car into the village.
There were many people around to watch the excitement. Everyone was talking about the topics they were talking about. Naturally, the center was the insect queen. They didn't know what the origin of this was, but many people also guessed. Out of nowhere I thought it might be some kind of insect queen, after all. Only the queens of termites look like this. There are so many termites in rural areas like theirs, which is also a scourge. There are many people in the area who know how to kill termites. The termite queens have such a weird look. Of course The size between the two is naturally quite different.
"Fifth brother, why did you bring this thing back? It looks weird."
Many people asked curiously.
“Folks, we in Hujia Village don’t have to worry this winter!”
Hu Laowu looked at the curious villagers surrounding him and shouted. Then he told the villagers and friends why he wanted to catch the queen of insects. Many people here heard that they could use the oil of the queen of insects. Many people's eyes lit up when they came to generate electricity. There were many diesel generators in their village because they were fish farmers. Nowadays, fish farmers need to have some mechanical tools, so generators are naturally indispensable. .
With the current level of technology, there is no way for current diesel engines to completely replace diesel with these greases, but they can use these greases mixed with the original diesel. This would also save their diesel consumption.
"By the way, where's the oil tanker?"
Hu Laowu suddenly asked.
A minute later a man arrived in a tanker truck. This oil tanker was stolen from a gas station outside.
Many people opened their eyes wide and wondered what Brother Five was going to do? Why did you call the tanker truck over at this time?
Hu Laowu took the pipe on the oil tanker, and then walked to the window that was tied up and took a look. The Queen of the Insect was still pretending to be dead. He sneered, and then stabbed fiercely with the pipe. In the body of this insect queen, if it were other monsters, the tube would not be sharp and it would be impossible to penetrate it. However, this insect queen is covered in fat and does not have any carapace at all. This tube directly As soon as it pierced his flesh and blood, the insect queen trembled. It was obvious that the other party was indeed pretending to be dead.
