I squinted my eyes and looked forward. Although it was already night, this place was as bright as day.
The light green fluorescence emitted from underwater illuminates the entire base clearly, exuding a mysterious and dangerous atmosphere.
Fang Ming, who was standing at the corridor picking up bottles, suddenly felt his legs go weak and he collapsed to the ground.
His body was shaking, and he managed to squeeze out a trembling sentence: "There is a monster in the water, in the water!"
Just a curious glance made him feel so sick that he wanted to vomit.
"yue~"
Fang Ming lay on the ground retching, and the expressions of the others were not much better.
Perhaps they heard the noise, as fish heads suddenly emerged from the water. They had strange and ugly shapes, and the twisted scales on their bodies looked a bit like mutant snakes, but rougher and slipperier than snakes.
A tentacle extends from each fish head, and a round fleshy ball protrudes downward from the top. The bright green light is emitted by these fleshy balls.
Jiang He felt as if there were countless little people holding green lanterns, hiding in the flood, staring at the humans on the shore with dark and strange eyes.
The density of mutant fish is even more terrifying than that of mutant snakes.
You think there is only a shallow layer of water, but in fact, there are thousands and thousands of mutant fish swimming under the water.
It can be said that almost all the waters within the shallow mountain base are occupied by them, with no gaps in between.
That's why this place is so bright that it can blind people.
Jiang He couldn't help but ask, "Tong, what are these little things? They look quite unique."
The system immediately replied: [Host, they are mutated piranhas. The part on their heads that looks like a small lantern, when it lights up, is a mating signal.
The reproduction rate of this type of piranha is no less than that of mutant spiders, but they eat their own kind, so their numbers haven't expanded too much.
Jiang He raised an eyebrow in shock, "Eating their own kind? Are they killing each other?"
[No, they will only pounce on a fish in the school that is about to die and share the fish meat.
The weaker the fluorescence on the top of the head, the weaker the vital signs are, and it won’t be long before it enters the stomach of other fish.
They can't go ashore, but their three rows of teeth are so sharp they can even bite through the bottom of a boat. This is why the residents of the base can't go out.
Jiang He understood that the shallow mountain supply station couldn't sell anything because of this group of piranhas.
Twenty minutes later, the RV stopped at the gate of the base, and the iron gate, which had been reinforced in advance, stood there stubbornly.
Although it did not collapse, a gap was still created by the flood.
The RV entered the base smoothly. The surroundings were terribly quiet, and the sound of mutant fish swimming in the water could be clearly heard.
…
In the base dormitory, Lan Ming took care of his physiological needs in a pile of cat litter, then pinched his nose to scoop out the dirt and threw it into a snakeskin bag in the corner.
Boom boom boom——
Xue Yan knocked on the door and shouted inside: "Xiao Mingzi, you are constipated. It's been half an hour, why haven't you recovered yet?"
“Here it comes!”
Lan Ming trotted over to open the door, and the lingering stench hit him in the face.
Xue Yan quickly stepped back and fanned the cat several times, "Xiao Mingzi, didn't you use cat litter? It stinks! It's killing me."
Lan Ming's cheeks flushed red as he said confidently, "I did use it. It's just that the sealed trash can was full and I hadn't had time to throw it out yet, so I had to throw it into another bag. Maybe it wasn't tied properly, so the smell came out."
Xue Yan rolled her eyes at him. "You're so lazy! It's only a few steps to take out the trash, and you keep putting it off. Are you trying to make yourself feel bad?"
The base director stipulated that during floods they could throw daily garbage directly into the water, but throwing objects from high places was not allowed and they had to go downstairs to throw them.
Lan Ming was a bit of a procrastinator. He closed the door, pushed Xue Yan's shoulder, and walked forward.
"Oh, I will definitely throw it away tomorrow. Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go, let's continue playing cards."
After moving to the mainland, base director Tan Luyun replicated a series of entertainment activities on the island exactly as they were.
The seventh floor of Xue Yan's building was specially divided into a chess and card room, a dance studio, and a barber shop...
The props in each room were collected from outside by people sent by the base commander.
The fluorescent lights outside at night were even more dazzling than during the day. The residents couldn't sleep at all, so they simply gathered in the activity room to play cards and games.
Xue Yan, Lan Ming, and Shi Cheng sat in the corner, holding a deck of cards and playing Run Fast.
"Hey, the loser has to do a hot dance!"
Xue Yan was the loudest in her arguments, but she also lost the most miserably. She was dealt a bad hand of cards and was badly beaten by the two of them.
"Okay, I'll jump!"
She walked to the window in one go, pulled up the hem of her dress that was in the way, and tied it in a knot at her waist.
Just after posing, Xue Yan stared out the window in a daze, and then suddenly let out a scream.
"ah!!!"
The people in the chess and card room were startled and turned their heads to look at her.
Lan Ming thought she was trying to cheat, so he pinched his throat and imitated her tone: "Yan Yanhua, why are you so startled? Don't think you can get away with the punishment by pretending to be crazy."
Shi Cheng sensed something was wrong, stood up, and walked over with a concerned look on his face, "Yan Yan, what's wrong? What did you see?"
Xue Yan was so excited that she was speechless for a moment. She pulled his arm and pointed out the window: "Car! Boss Jiang's car!"
"Huh? Boss Jiang is coming to our base?"
Everyone couldn't wait to squeeze to the window, wanting to confirm whether what Xue Yan said was true.
"Oh my god, that pink car is Boss Jiang!"
"Boss Jiang is here to save us again!"
Xue Yan and Lan Ming exchanged glances, and silently shouted in tacit understanding:
"Ahhh, Boss Jiang is indeed sent by the Sea God. She must have heard their prayers, which is why she came all the way here in the middle of the night!"
God knows how hard it was for them to keep this secret.
I was almost tricked several times, but fortunately I reacted in time and managed to hold on to my bottom line.
Otherwise, the two of them who leaked the information would not be too ashamed to see Boss Jiang.
Lan Ming opened the window and shouted excitedly: "Boss Jiang, we missed you so much!"
The whole building was instantly awakened by his words, and people kept coming out of the windows, waving and greeting enthusiastically:
"Boss Jiang, come up and play cards and sing!"
The survivors in the supermarket looked at each other, confusion written all over their faces.
Boss Jiang has come to her territory? It seems that everyone here is very familiar with her.
There was a sound of rushing water.
A pitch-black mass suddenly climbed up the supermarket corridor.
Guan Qing was so scared that she threw herself into her boyfriend's arms, her shrill voice splitting, "Help! The monster is jumping up and eating people!"
Everyone huddled in the corner like frightened birds, looking warily at the big turtle that ignored them and crawled straight into the supermarket.
