"Huh? Brother, what did you say?" Zhou Hongda turned his head and asked after hearing the voice.
"It's nothing. I remembered a friend of mine from the past. His name is Zhou Tiankuo." Li Fugui removed his hand from his waist casually and made up a reason casually.
"That's it." Zhou Hongda responded, turned around and continued to devour, "Save some for me!"
After a brief moment of thinking, Li Fugui changed his mind and decided not to kill them.
I don't know if it is the "Zhou Hongda", after all, Li Fugui has never really met him, but if it is really the "Zhou Hongda", then Li Fugui will have a powerful ice ability user as a big help.
Li Fugui decided to use Zhou Hongda. In the dark world, only strength is the most important thing.
Sitting on the remaining chair, Li Fugui looked at the slightly naive Zhou Hongda in front of him, wondering how such a person could turn into a violent and bloodthirsty character in the future.
Maybe it was because he suddenly gained abilities that were not his own, or something happened, Li Fugui guessed.
Within a few minutes, the food was completely eaten by the three of them, and they were all lying on the chairs with their stomachs puffed out.
Seeing how many people were eating and drinking, Li Fugui started chatting word by word.
During the conversation, Li Fugui learned that the tall and thin man was called Zhao Dongyu and the fat man was called Fu Yulang. Before the darkness came, the two of them came to Zhou Hongda's house to play. As a result, the high-speed rail and other means of transportation were suspended when darkness came, and they couldn't go back when they came.
I thought I would wait until the warning was cleared and the transportation would be put back into service before returning home, but bugs actually appeared in the darkness. Seeing the bloody and terrifying scene, several people gave up the idea of going home and chose to stay at Zhou Hongda's home.
What Li Fugui didn't expect was that Zhou Hongda was an orphan like him. He had been working hard in the city since he was a child. He also learned how to open locks at that time. Later, he met a kind-hearted old man who took him in and let him work in a noodle shop.
The old man also became Zhou Hongda's only concern, but the continuous falling of darkness completely severed contact between the two.
During the last contact, the old man seemed to be a little unwell, so Zhou Hongda was very worried about the old man. He wanted to go to the old man more than once but was dissuaded by bugs wandering at the door.
The old man is alone without his wife and children. If he dies outside, then the old man will really have no hope.
Seeing that many people died from the mouths of insects today, the three of them thought about whether they could go out to find some food, but they searched four floors and found nothing until they arrived at Li Fugui.
It is said that emotions after eating and drinking are the biggest enemy of human beings. Several people were talking with tears in their eyes and some choked with sobs.
Li Fugui was naturally not interested in the emotions of these people, and just wanted to obtain some information. After chatting, he checked the vitality in his body.
Originally, Li Fugui had one and a half units of vitality in his body. After using up one unit, there was still half a unit left. During the conversation, he had recovered to one unit of vitality. This means that he still needs to wait two hours to recover his energy before going downstairs to search.
After resetting the alarm clock for two hours, Li Fugui told a few people not to make any noise and then retracted into bed to rest.
Two hours later, Li Fugui cut off the alarm clock as soon as it rang. The three people who were sleeping on the sofa woke up when they heard the sound.
After darkness falls, no one dares to sleep too hard. After all, no one knows what will happen next moment.
The three of them looked at Li Fugui who had put on the night vision goggles and were a little confused. When they learned that Li Fugui was going downstairs, their faces turned pale. To their surprise, Zhou Hongda bit the bullet and wanted to follow Li Fugui to help. .
Li Fugui was a little surprised. After all, he and Zhou Hongda were not relatives, and there were insects hiding somewhere outside.
But Li Fugui was not prepared to let Zhou Hongda follow him. Not to mention whether Zhou Hongda was the same Zhou Hongda, even if he did not have the ability to awaken now, there was no difference between following Li Fugui downstairs and committing suicide.
Li Fugui could protect himself, but he was not sure about protecting others. If Zhou Hongda died outside, he would lose more than he gained.
Li Fugui wouldn't mind if Zhou Dongyu and Fu Yulang went with him. To Li Fugui, they were just two mouths to eat. If they could die outside, it would be a good thing for Li Fugui.
After rejecting Zhou Hongda, Li Fugui took his backpack and quietly went out.
When he came downstairs, Li Fugui found many people wandering on the street, some even holding torches.
As darkness continues to fall, most people in the community have run out of food. Rather than starving to death, many people still choose to try their luck. If they are lucky enough to not encounter bugs and get food, then they can Hold on longer.
People are still looking forward to the arrival of the army in their hearts, because Li Fugui also had this mentality in his previous life. But Li Fugui understood that at this time, the military basically no longer cares about the civilian population. Those professors with strong knowledge reserves and powerful wealthy people are the targets of their protection.
Li Fugui came to the battlefield left by the bug and searched for a long time before finding some bullets, several incomplete rifles and several empty magazines.
He was not the first to search here. Li Fugui knew this very well. For safety reasons, he waited for several hours before going downstairs. Naturally, he did not hold too much expectations.
After stuffing the bullet clips and rifle into his backpack, Li Fugui came to the headless insect.
The extremely corrosive liquid flowed out from the fracture, corroding the car that was pressed into a discus beneath him.
Taking out the kitchen knife from his waist, Li Fugui injected vitality into it and cut off a piece of carapace from the insect in a few breaths.
This is also one of Li Fugui's purposes. Although the scroll he carries is invulnerable to fire and water, it can only protect against one side.
The carapace on a bug's body after death may not be as hard as it was in life, but it still has some bulletproof effect. It can be made into armor and tied to the body for good protection.
After removing two pieces of carapace from the insect's trunk and abdomen, Li Fugui put away his kitchen knife and prepared to go back.
Even if he still has more than one and a half units of vitality left in his body, he is not prepared to continue. After all, there are always threats of insects downstairs, and it is impossible without vitality as a reserve.
The extra piece was prepared by Li Fugui for Zhou Hongda. The piece happened to be cut larger enough to be used as front and back bulletproof plates.
As for the other two, Li Fugui wished they would die.
Li Fugui's worry was not unreasonable. Before he had taken two steps, he heard screams not far away. Someone was shouting that insects were coming.
Fortunately, Li Fugui reacted quickly enough and his body had almost recovered, and he ran home in one breath.
The three of them were awakened by Li Fugui's movements, holding various strange weapons in their hands. They relaxed after seeing that the person coming was Li Fugui.
When Zhou Hongda was about to ask, Li Fugui immediately made a hissing gesture and quietly came to the window to open a gap. Sure enough, he found a bug rushing from the corner of the street, and everywhere it went was bloody.
Listening to the sharp neighing sound of the insects, the faces of Zhou Hongda and the others instantly turned pale, and the hands holding the weapons could not stop trembling.
But fortunately, the bug did not stop and left after the noisy crowd.
Looking at Li Fugui leaving the window, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. The horrific massacre of insects had a great impact on them. Sometimes they would even be woken up by the insects in their dreams when they fell asleep.
After taking off his backpack, Li Fugui threw the rifle to the three of them. The three of them couldn't put it down and touched it, even though some parts of these guns were badly worn.
As expected, the love for guns is a gene that every boy comes from. Maybe it comes from the decades-long war of resistance.
"This is?!" Zhou Hongda asked in disbelief, pointing to the red carapace on Li Fugui's waist.
"The carapace of an insect." Li Fugui didn't hide anything and said straight to the point, "It was cut off from the insect when I just came downstairs."
The three of them opened their mouths in surprise after hearing this. You must know that they live on the first floor, but they clearly saw that the insects had killed so many people before with the powerful firepower of the army!
Li Fugui was able to cut off the carapace from the insect, which was incredible in their eyes.
But Li Fugui didn't explain, and they couldn't ask more questions.
"If you look at the bullets that can be loaded, load them. Only the bullets that do not meet the model will be left. Make sure there are bullets in three magazines." Li Fugui explained after throwing the bullets and magazines in the backpack to Zhou Hongda. , and then started tinkering with the insect carapace.
The insect's carapace is very hard, but not very heavy. Li Fugui can lift a large piece of carapace in his hand without much effort. Li Fugui vaguely remembered that scientists in the previous life said that the material of insect carapace came from a strange substance, but Li Fugui didn't know what it was.
The energy in his body flew away, and just a second before it was exhausted, Li Fugui made the carapace into armor. In other words, it can't be called armor, it's just three pieces of carapace with a few holes cut out. It doesn't fit well, but it's enough.
After doing all this, Li Fugui was ready to take a nap. He didn't sleep well last night, and so many things suddenly happened today.
Zhou Hongda had already packed up his bullets and was sleeping on the sofa with the other two people.
After thinking about it again and again, Li Fugui threw two quilts to the three of them and let them sleep under them. The temperature had dropped to below zero, and if he caught a cold, he would have to consume the few medicines he had.
Squeezing into bed, Li Fugui closed his eyes and fell asleep.
