Chapter 317 Prions
Next, the man specially allocated a place for the four of them in the tomb: "You can stay here temporarily. Don't be disgusted. The tomb is not big, so we can only squeeze in now."
Tang Wei waved his hands, a little embarrassed, and said, "This is the place you occupied first. It's great that you didn't kick us out and gave us a place to sleep."
The man smiled and said, "Since we have met, we are all friends. I don't understand any great principles. I just know that in the face of natural disasters and man-made disasters, we can only survive by helping each other."
Shi Jiaojiao and Wang Jia cleaned up the place where they lived. When they said cleaned up, they just placed the few bags of supplies they had against the wall and then cleaned the ground casually.
Shi Jiaojiao kept moving her hands but kept listening to their conversation.
Except for the man and Tang Wei who were chatting non-stop, everyone else gathered on the other side of the tomb, staring at the four people but showing no signs of coming up to talk to them.
Including those three women whose eyes were filled with excitement.
Shi Jiaojiao lowered her eyelashes. There was something wrong with these people. She knew it the first time she saw them.
But now after getting in touch with him, she discovered that these people were actually very afraid of that man. It was a fear that was engraved in their bones.
In fact, it is normal for a leader to appear in a group of people, but having a leader does not mean that there will only be one voice left in the team.
Wang Jia frowned, and sat on the ground next to Shi Jiaojiao, leaning against the wall. Then he leaned in and whispered, "Jiaojiao, look at the way those three women look at us. They are so strange."
Shi Jiaojiao didn't say anything, but looked over.
Her eyesight was better than Wang Jia's. Even in the dim light, she could clearly see the expressions on the three women's faces.
There was excitement, sympathy, and a hint of disdain.
They were excited because they knew the news about the refuge base.
What about sympathy and disdain?
The man who was talking to Tang Wei next to him was also very enthusiastic, and now the two of them started to treat each other like brothers.
Tang Wei: "Brother Tian, don't worry, we will set off together after the sandstorm passes, and we will all go to the refuge base together."
Tian Hua, the man who had been chatting with Tang Wei, laughed: "Thank you, Brother Tang. If it weren't for you, we don't know how long it would take us to know the news."
When Tian Hua was talking to Tang Wei, his eyes kept sweeping over Shi Jiaojiao and Wang Jia, and he felt satisfied in his heart.
His eyes fell on her, how could Shi Jiaojiao not notice?
Since the end of the world, she has seen many looks from men, some sticky, some disgusting, some disdainful, and some fearful.
But there has never been a look that made her feel like she couldn't control the urge to kill like she did now.
At first, Tian Hua didn't take it seriously when she peeked at her Wang Jia.
But as time went on, she discovered that the other man's eyes were completely different from those of the men she had been with before.
There was criticism, satisfaction, and fanaticism in Tian Hua's eyes.
It's not the craze of men for women, but the craze of gourmets for delicious food!
After discovering this, Shi Jiaojiao's heart sank suddenly, and then she quickly looked across.
At this glance, he saw a man among the seven survivors scratching his neck constantly. It seemed that he couldn't stop the itch for a long time, so he scratched harder and harder, as if he wanted to peel off the skin. When he put his hands down, his neck was covered with shocking scratches, and even his clothes were stained with blood.
Shi Jiaojiao pursed her lips and turned her eyes to see that one of the women had bruises on her arm, but upon closer inspection, she saw densely packed red papules underneath the bruises.
The man next to her had a few pustules at the corners of his mouth, as if they were caused by inflammation.
Shi Jiaojiao's face became increasingly gloomy, and her fingertips pinched her palm tightly.
The seven survivors on the opposite side all had erosions on their exposed skin.
They looked at them with gloomy eyes, and one man even licked his lips.
Shi Jiaojiao's heart seemed to be strangled, and then she closed her eyes tightly.
They don't have a skin disease.
It's a symptom of prion!
In my previous life, I had seen with my own eyes survivors who were also infected with prions. No, they could no longer be called human beings.
They have completely abandoned the bottom line that humans should have, and there is nothing else in their eyes except eating.
Calling them beasts is an insult to the word beasts.
Wang Jia sensed that something was wrong with Shi Jiaojiao and quickly came over: "Jiaojiao, are you okay?"
Shi Jiaojiao opened her eyes, took a long sigh, and then shook her head.
At this time, Tian Hua didn't know that his deepest secret had been discovered by Shi Jiaojiao, but even if he knew it, he wouldn't take it to heart.
There were only four people on the opposite side, and two of them were women who looked delicate and weak. How could they possibly beat eight of them?
The other side has weapons, and our weapons are not bad either.
Besides, compared to killing people, who could have more experience than me?
But he still hoped that these four people were unaware of it.
It's not that I'm worried about anything else, it's just that human flesh turns sour due to extreme fear and doesn't taste good at all.
Tian Hua withdrew his gaze from Shi Jiaojiao and Wang Jia, feeling extremely satisfied.
This kind of top-quality stuff has become increasingly rare after the end of the world.
There are so few that I am reluctant to buy it.
He couldn't help swallowing and secretly decided in his heart that these people must be raised and eaten slowly.
After thinking it over in his mind, his eyes fell on the silent Mu Ci again. Seeing his cold face, the smile on his face fell, and he said unhappily: "Why doesn't that brother speak? Is there something he is not satisfied with?"
Tang Wei cursed the man in his heart.
No matter what level of person, he wants to talk to Mu Ci.
Not to mention that the other party kept peeking at Shi Jiaojiao and Wang Jia again and again.
If Shi Jiaojiao hadn't secretly stopped him with her eyes, he would have wanted to smash the man's head to pieces immediately.
He suppressed his anger and quickly took over the conversation, "My cousin is just like that, he doesn't like to talk, he doesn't mean anything else, we can just chat."
After hearing the explanation, Tian Hua stopped paying attention to Mu Ci and turned to continue chatting with Tang Wei.
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Shi Jiaojiao's eyes.
She couldn't stand the way the other person looked at her, and she couldn't stand the way the other person treated Mu Ci even more.
At first they did not take action immediately, but asked Tang Wei to explain that they did not want to kill innocent survivors.
But now, there is no such concern.
Her fingers kept groping for the knife handle, her eyelashes trembling, and her mind was rapidly planning.
No, they still can't take action directly.
These survivors are all infected with prions. Once they start fighting, the four of them will inevitably come into contact with each other's blood.
Shi Jiaojiao closed her eyes, pretending to be extremely tired and taking a rest, but her consciousness was constantly searching in the space warehouse for something that could kill someone without shedding blood.
