Intense, stimulating pain can make people scratch uncontrollably, and the gradual onset of numbness will cause the limb muscles to relax, which is the insect's favorite feeding state.
Having witnessed the deaths of the village chief's family, everyone became extremely cautious in their daily lives. After all, life is only once, and one should cherish it, for death is no joke.
The insects fluttered around the fine wire mesh day and night, looking for an opportunity to enter.
The sound of insects fluttering was especially clear at night.
Unable to sleep, Song Yi found some insecticide somewhere and sprayed it vigorously onto the fine wire mesh. In a short while, the insects scattered, and some began to fall off as if they were dead.
Upon seeing this, Song Yi informed Shen Xi, an official, of his discovery. Shen Xi hesitated, as the military's instructions were to stay away from the insects and warn of danger.
However, now that ordinary insecticides can kill insects, Shen Xi doesn't know whether this discovery is good or bad.
Jiang Yao, Xiao Mu, and others, having heard that the insecticide could kill these insects, rushed to Shen Xi's residence to verify its authenticity with their own eyes.
Shen Xi frowned and called Liu Mingliang over, saying, "Send someone to search the supply depot to see if there's anything like insecticide inside."
"Once you find it, bring it to me."
"I want to try it myself to see if this bug is really dead." Jiang Yao and the others saw Shen Xi's worry.
Liu Mingliang handed the insecticide he had found to Shen Xi, saying, "Hey boss, could it be that it's become a spirit and is faking its death to play tricks on us?"
“We saw it with our own eyes, like these bugs hadn’t eaten for years, chasing after people.” Zhou Bin also seemed a little skeptical.
"We'll find out if it's real or fake today by testing it." With that, Shen Xi gently shook the insecticide a few times, aimed it at the insects on the fine wire mesh, and sprayed it. The insects first took off to dodge, and after a while, they were quiet and motionless, as if they were dead.
After waiting for more than twenty minutes, someone tried to open the fine iron mesh, but Xiao Mu stopped them, saying, "Observe it for a while longer, don't rush."
Jiang Yao noticed that Xiao Mu's gaze gradually became focused and serious, and his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
At this moment, someone exclaimed, "Look! The insect is moving! It's moving!" They pointed in horror at the insect under the fine wire mesh.
This bug is really something else; it even fakes its death.
Upon seeing this, Song Yi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he hadn't opened the fine iron mesh, or he would have truly become a delicious meal.
Everyone gasped in shock at the sight. If they had opened the fine iron netting just now, they would be in the second village chief's house now.
Xiao Mu saw that the insects seemed to have gained intelligence, just like a hunter waiting for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow to its prey.
It turns out that the SFG mutant insect has evolved again. I wonder how things are going in Haizhou now.
Seeing Xiao Mu looking preoccupied, Shen Zhijie put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen in Haizhou."
When Jiang Yao had nothing to do, she would use the Chinese herbs she found to make insect repellent at home, because seeing bugs on the window every day really affected her mood.
I took out the high-proof liquor I had stockpiled when I opened the warehouse supermarket in Zone B, put SCZ, BAIA and other Chinese herbs into the liquor, and soaked it in a cool place for a week to see if it could kill the insects.
When Shen Zhijie had nothing to do, he approached Jiang Yao and said mysteriously, "We have one last batch of ingredients that we can use for hot pot."
"How about the three of us have hot pot tonight?"
Even if the sky were to fall, it wouldn't affect Shen Zhijie's mood for eating.
Shen Zhijie wondered when he could set off back to Haizhou. Sigh, there were so many of his treasures there!
The thought that it might be a long time before I can see his treasures makes my heart ache.
When Jiang Yao arrived at Shen Zhijie's house at night, Xiao Mu was already in the kitchen preparing the ingredients for the evening.
In the dim light, the man's slender figure stood in front of the sink, the clear water flowing over his well-defined fingers. This was the first time Jiang Yao had ever seen Xiao Mu like this.
Seeing Jiang Yao come over to help, Xiao Mu smiled slightly, looking at Jiang Yao with amusement in his eyes, and slowly said, "I'll take care of this, you go and prepare the dishes!"
Shen Zhijie looked at the two people bustling about in the kitchen, shook his head, and went back to his room. It seemed he could just wait to eat today.
After Jiang Yao and the other woman prepared the ingredients, they gently knocked on Shen Zhijie's door and said, "Shen Zhijie, didn't you want to eat hot pot?"
"Why aren't you coming out?"
"I'm just afraid that if I take action, it will affect the visual impact of the scene."
Looking at the ingredients on the table, Shen Zhijie remarked, "A responsible, tall, handsome man who can cook is truly charming!"
"Just thinking about it makes me a little tempted."
"Do you like a man like Jiang Yao?" Shen Zhijie asked half-jokingly.
After hearing this, Xiao Mu looked up at Jiang Yao, also wanting to know Jiang Yao's answer.
Jiang Yao's cheeks flushed, and she glared at Shen Zhijie, saying, "Eat your food!"
Not getting the answer he wanted, Shen Zhijie pouted.
He looked at Xiao Mu and said, "See? I've helped you so much, but you still won't say anything."
Every time Jiang Xue saw Jiang Yao enter Xiao Mu's house, she felt like she wanted to go crazy.
Why couldn't Xiao Mu just look at her a little longer? He was clearly more feminine than Jiang Yao!
The latest notification Shen Xi received from the military was that the insects outside were a branch of a mutant insect called SFG, specifically SFG-2-2, from the Haizhou Laboratory.
Because the SFG-2-2 insects underwent differentiation and mutation in this extreme weather, they were named the ASD-1 insects.
This insect contains highly toxic neurotoxins throughout its body, feeds on decaying meat, and lives in groups.
