Chapter 280: Go ahead, kids!
Let’s not talk about the upgrade for now, time flies and it’s the safe period of the second day.
Shi Jiaojiao didn’t know what the current situation in the city was, but there were more and more giant rats in the mountains.
There was no movement outside during the day yesterday, but at night, no, now it doesn’t matter whether it’s morning or evening, after the temperature dropped, the occasional cries of giant rats outside could be heard in the cave.
The giant rat that they left alive, probably having heard the voices of its companions, also began to bark along with them, not stopping all night long.
When Jiaojiao woke up in the morning, she could still vaguely hear the sounds outside.
This time she didn't open the door directly, but opened it a little bit.
Sure enough, not far outside, there was a group of giant rats staring at the direction of the cave.
After a rough count, there were about thirty of them.
Shi Jiaojiao's eyelids twitched, and she suddenly felt something was wrong.
A giant rat was more than half a meter long and had about thirty of them. If it rushed over, it would tear the four of them into pieces.
This is different from having thirty people outside.
When people see their companions injured, they will run away in fear, but this giant rat, which can be considered an animal, will just pounce on humans one after another until they die.
Shi Jiaojiao immediately closed the door, then picked up the intercom to remind Wang Jia: "Don't go out for the time being, there are too many giant rats outside today."
The number is too large, so obviously the plan needs to be changed.
She had originally planned to kill another batch of giant rats today. It would be best if she could leave some alive, but if not, she would hurry up and make the trap.
The traps don't need to be too complicated, the main thing is to trap the giant rat.
But there were too many giant rats outside, and they couldn't even go out to hunt them, let alone set traps.
After hearing Shi Jiaojiao's instructions, Wang Jia hurriedly stopped her boyfriend who was about to open the door.
The great victory in the past two days made her and Tang Wei a little excited. Their mentality has changed from being nervous and flustered at the beginning to being eager to try now. Even the first thing they think about when they wake up every day is to kill rats.
The temptation of giant rat meat is too great, not to mention that the meat is so delicious.
The previous success also made the two forget the cruelty of the end of the world. They even felt secretly proud of themselves, thinking that the giant rat was nothing special.
At this moment, the rats outside were like a bucket of ice-cold water, pouring all over them.
Yes, how could God let humans get food so easily?
There are about thirty of them on the mountain today. What about tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow?
Will the giant rats suddenly disappear like the locusts, or will they coexist with humans in the future?
Wang Jia felt a little chill in his heart. Seeing that it was not enough for Tang Wei to close the cave door, the two of them moved the iron door over again, until the entire entrance was blocked tightly. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
She picked up the intercom: "Jiaojiao, then we're not going to do anything today?"
She felt conflicted. She couldn't defeat the rats even if she fought them, but she also felt unwilling to let the rats go for nothing.
These are all meat. It’s better to fill your stomach with them than to let them go.
It is very difficult to have a healthy body in the apocalypse. People like her and Tang Wei are already in good conditions, at least they will not starve.
But even so, the two men still looked pale and thin. There was almost no canned food left, and the dried honey vegetables stored during the extreme cold were also gone. The most common thing they ate was multi-grain cakes mixed with staple food and cooked together into porridge.
The meat available now is simply delivered to their doorstep to supplement their nutrition.
Shi Jiaojiao listened to the noise outside. The group of giant rats must have noticed that they opened the door. They were becoming more and more restless, making sharp and piercing calls one after another.
She could feel the heartache in Wang Jia's tone, but she couldn't bear to give up the meat outside.
There is no shortage of food in my own space, but there is still a shortage of meat. It would be best if I could store more now.
She said, "I'll try to find a way here first, and I'll let you know if it works."
Wang Jia bit her lips tightly. The rats outside were not something that one or two people could deal with. It didn't matter if she ate a little less meat, but Shi Jiaojiao couldn't get hurt.
If it doesn't work, you can only give up. After all, talent is the most important.
She quickly advised: "Why not just forget it? Maybe there will be fewer giant rats on the mountain tomorrow. We can do it tomorrow."
Shi Jiaojiao said: "Don't worry, I have a way."
Judging from the past two days, the giant rats have appeared in groups. There are more than 30 of them on the mountain now, and there will be more tomorrow.
Even if it's for your own sake, you have to take action.
Otherwise, if hundreds of giant rats surround us, the cave may not be able to withstand it.
Therefore, every day they must kill as many giant rats as possible within the safe period, so that they can be safer afterwards.
Shi Jiaojiao took out the internal organs that had been mixed with sleeping pills yesterday. Afraid that the giant rats would not eat them, she spent a huge amount of money to kill a fat chicken, plucked the hair, chopped the meat and mixed it with the internal organs. Not a bit of the blood was wasted, as it was all poured on top.
If the poison can really kill a few giant rats, it won't be a waste to kill this chicken.
Once she was ready, she planned to open the door and throw the bait out.
But as soon as she put her hand on the door, Mu Ci took the bag from her hand and said, "I'll do it."
Shi Jiaojiao didn't argue about this, but she suddenly thought of the eyeball alarm lying quietly in the space. Her eyes lit up and she immediately took it out.
This is the ultimate killer!
Sonic group attack can also be done silently.
If Wang Jia and the others ask about it after it’s over, I can completely blame it on the sleeping pills. It’s perfect.
When Mu Ci saw the eyeball in Shi Jiaojiao's hand, his eyebrows twitched. He had actually forgotten about this little thing.
When they were ready, they opened the door.
The rats outside the door did not leave, perhaps because the smell of human flesh in the cave made them linger.
But as they waited, they became more and more impatient.
Only here is there the smell of food, but the food is always hiding. How can this not make them annoyed?
And just at this moment, the door suddenly opened.
The giant rats' eyes lit up and they immediately pounced towards the cave.
Shi Jiaojiao and Mu Ci's expressions did not change at all.
Mu Ci threw out a bag of bait immediately, and Shi Jiaojiao threw the eyeball onto the cliff, almost three meters above the ground.
She had observed it two days ago. Although the giant rat had amazing jumping ability, it was not so powerful that it could jump three meters high. Therefore, the position of the eyeballs was quite safe.
When the rats saw the food after the cave door opened, their eyes turned even redder.
Squeak, squeak, squeak…
Go ahead, kids!
