An inexplicable danger seems to be approaching us silently and quietly.
This is often the case with people. The more invisible the danger, the more it will send chills down your spine.
This is what I am like at this time.
An unprecedented chill was creeping up my neck along my spine, making me shiver.
I looked around with a flashlight, but there was nothing. I couldn't hear even a single sound except for the breathing of a few of us.
At this moment, the whole world seemed to be left with only boundless darkness and everything strange in front of it.
I took a few breaths and tried to adjust my mentality. Although it didn't help, it could at least calm me down.
I looked at the corpses on the ground, and then said to Xiong Ming and Li Xiaohong: "We don't have much time, so hurry up and sort out these people's equipment, see if there is anything useful, and bring it with you."
Xiong Ming smiled and said: "What's the use? Hu Tian, these are damn good things, how come you can still be picky about what you say?"
As Xiong Ming spoke, he began to pick off equipment from an Asian man's body, while I rummaged through a white man's body to see if they had any emergency medicines.
Sure enough, I didn't have much time and dug into the guy's pocket and found a pack of first-aid antibiotics and two shots of epinephrine.
I put the medicines in my pocket, then picked up the mk-753 that fell on the ground, removed the magazine, and found that the ammunition inside was full, so I put it back decisively.
At this time, Li Xiaohong on the side suddenly said: "Hu Tian, look at what this is?"
Hearing this, I knew that Li Xiaohong had discovered something, so I hastily picked out a few pieces of equipment from the white man and put them on my body. I hurried over and asked, "What's wrong? What did you find?"
Li Xiaohong pointed at the neck of one of the black brothers and said, "Look here!"
I looked in the direction of Li Xiaohong's finger and found that there were many tiny plant buds growing inexplicably around the guy's eyes, ears, mouth and nose.
The tender green branches and buds shone with a strange light under the illumination of the flashlight.
Xiong Ming said in surprise: "What is this?"
I shook my head and said, "This is my first time seeing it too. How do I know what this thing is?"
Before I could finish my words, suddenly the black brother in front of us suddenly opened his closed eyes.
I saw this guy's eyes turned white, staring straight at a few of us, making a "gurgling" sound in his throat, and his body began to twitch.
This sudden change shocked several of us, and the three of us started to move backwards.
Xiong Ming was the first to react, raising the gun in his hand and pointing it at the black brother on the ground.
And after the guy struggled on the ground for a while, he suddenly sat up from the ground, tilted his head and looked at the few of us, his expression was like a newborn looking at the entire strange world.
Xiong Ming held the gun in his hand and shouted through gritted teeth: "Hu Tian, is this a fucking zongzi? I remember you have a black donkey's hoof in your bag. Do you want to get one for this guy?"
"You're still talking nonsense?" Just as Xiong Ming was talking, I put my hand into the bag and took out the dried black donkey hoof that Li Dong had prepared for us.
Just as he was talking, the black brother on the ground suddenly jumped up from the ground and rushed toward Xiong Ming, who was closest to him.
Xiong Ming was not a vegetarian. When he saw the guy rushing toward him, without saying a word, he raised his hand and fired a few shots.
"Bang bang bang..."
With the sound of several gunshots, half of the black brother's face was blown off by the powerful firepower of the MK-743 in Xiong Ming's hand.
The black brother tilted his body and fell to the ground with a thump.
But the strange thing is that this guy's head was half blown off by the MK-743 in Xiong Ming's hand, but no blood flowed out at all.
Not only that, the guy stood up again after dangling a few times.
When Xiong Ming saw this, he yelled: "Your uncle, what the hell is going on?"
Xiong Ming raised his gun as he spoke, intending to give the monster in front of him another shot.
But just when he pulled the trigger, his whole body was pushed hard. Xiong Ming lost his balance and stumbled to the side.
Xiong Ming managed to regain his balance. When he turned around, he found that it was Li Xiaohong who pushed him.
Xiong Ming just wanted to curse, but found that there was an extra person where he was standing before.
A white man with white eyes and bared teeth.
Only then did Xiong Ming realize that it was Li Xiaohong who saved his life just now.
Xiong Ming gritted his teeth and said to Li Xiaohong: "I owe you once."
Li Xiaohong ignored Xiong Ming, but instead used a large-caliber Smith's Flying Eagle on the ground and aimed two shots at the white man who was rushing toward her.
However, unlike Xiong Ming, Li Xiaohong's two shots did not hit the white man's head, but all hit the guy's knees.
With two crisp gunshots, the white man's knee was instantly shattered. The bullet penetrated his kneecap and was directly nailed to the mountain wall not far away, causing a burst of dust to rise in an instant.
The white man tilted his body and fell to the ground.
With previous experience, none of us dare to be careless, for fear that they will get angry and hurt others again.
Sure enough, after falling to the ground, the mutated white man suddenly pushed himself on the ground, used his hands and feet to crawl towards Li Xiaohong.
This guy's mouth full of black teeth was opened at an extremely weird angle, as if he was about to bite off Li Xiaohong's neck.
At the critical moment of life and death, I didn't dare to be vague. I flashed my body and threw myself in front of Li Xiaohong. I raised my right hand and stuffed the black donkey's hoof into the guy's mouth.
I originally thought that the black donkey's hooves, which are designed to defeat evil things, could at least restrain this guy's actions even if he wouldn't be wiped out in ashes.
But who would have thought, this guy was not afraid at all, and bit into a piece of the dried black donkey's hoof in one bite.
You know, the hardness of the dried black donkey's hooves is extremely strong. Even if you hit it hard with a hammer, it would take you a long time to break it into pieces, but you didn't expect it to be bitten into seven or eight pieces by this guy.
One can imagine how terrifying this guy's bite force is.
I couldn't help being shocked and thought to myself: "Grandma's! If he bites me, even if I don't die, I probably won't live long!"
While I was thinking, the other three people on the ground stood up one after another. After twisting their bodies a few times, they rushed towards the few of us.
I didn't have time to think too much, I raised the MK-743 in my hand and fired one shot at a time. First, I smashed the knees of the two monsters at the front, and then I shot two more shots in the head.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the two monsters were beaten beyond recognition.
But even so, they still rushed towards us regardless of their own safety.
"Bang bang bang..." After several more gunshots, Xiong Ming beat a monster that jumped in front of him into a pulp.
The same is true for Li Xiaohong and I. Based on the principle of "if I can't kill you, I'll beat you to pieces", relying on the powerful firepower, we forcibly reduced the few people in front of us to a puddle of rotten flesh.
A few of us were leaning against the wall and panting heavily. The residual smell after burning gunpowder was still filling the air. I don't know about others, but at least in my heart I felt a little "lucky" to survive the disaster.
After a while, Xiong Ming slowly lowered the muzzle of the gun he had been holding high, and murmured: "It's so damn dangerous. What on earth are these guys?"
Li Xiaohong said: "Maybe it has something to do with the strange plant buds on them..."
"Zhiya?" Xiong Ming and I almost said in surprise when we heard Li Xiaohong's words.
Xiong Ming wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "You mean, it's not the rice dumplings that kill us, but the failure of a tree?"
Li Xiaohong nodded and said, "It's possible!"
Perhaps to confirm Li Xiaohong's words, the guys who were originally paralyzed on the ground started to move again.
Their bodies first trembled violently, and a few seconds later, countless tender green buds sprouted from various wounds on their bodies.
These buds are small at first and appear a light green color overall.
They grew crazily. In a short time, they grew to more than half a meter long.
These branches seemed to be alive. They could sense each other's existence. They were tumbling and entangled with each other. The limp body on the ground was wrapped into a whole body by them.
And their color gradually changed from tender green to a strange red.
