Chapter 334 Red Mist
The dark and gloomy night is a good time to commit crimes.
The environment on Blue Planet is becoming increasingly harsh. The authorities are building an underground city at this time. If you think about it carefully, you will know that the underground city may be the last refuge for mankind.
If you want to enter the dungeon, you need to use points to buy a place to enter. However, not everyone has enough points to enter the dungeon.
If you don't have enough points and the weather is not suitable for growing crops, then there is only one way left, which is to rob other people's supplies, exchange the supplies for points, and fight for a way to survive.
The endless darkness of the eternal night created a great environment for them to commit crimes, so after the eternal night fell, cases of home robberies frequently occurred in the garrison.
Li Yu'e knew that Xia Xiaoman was attacked, so she brought two people over. "You have too few people here. They are both quite skilled. If you don't mind the noise, I'll let them stay with you."
Xia Xiaoman refused without thinking, "Sister Yu'e, no need. Zhang Can and his friends are enough here. There are too many people, and the greenhouse can't accommodate them."
After that, she asked with concern: "How is Lingling? Is she well?"
Li Yu'e nodded. "After two injections of anti-inflammatory injections, he is fine now. The other two injections were used on another child."
Bird flu is coming with great force. Adults can still survive it, but children will develop pneumonia if they are not careful. Without anti-inflammatory drugs or anti-inflammatory injections, they will not be able to survive.
Seeing Li Yu'e's worried look, Xia Xiaoman asked, "Lingling should be happy that she has recovered from her illness. Why do you look so unhappy?"
Li Yu'e sighed, "Who can be happy when three groups of people come to mess up the greenhouse in five days?"
"Someone went to the greenhouse to cause trouble? Did they want to steal the supplies?"
"No, they are just making trouble." There are not many supplies in the greenhouse, only the greenhouse and the supplementary lights. It is useless for those who make trouble to steal the greenhouse and the supplementary lights.
There were not many people in the floating city garrison who possessed these two things. They stole the greenhouse and the fill light, and once they took them out, they would be exposing themselves. So those people did not come to steal supplies, but simply had jealousy and could not bear to see others doing well, so they deliberately made trouble.
Li Yu'e wanted to arrange for two more people to live in Xia Xiaoman's greenhouse. In addition to worrying about Xia Xiaoman, she was also afraid that someone would come here to cause trouble.
Xia Xiaoman sighed, "It has only been a short time since the Eternal Night came and it is already so chaotic. I am afraid it will get even more chaotic in the future."
Li Yu'e said: "The closer it gets to the opening time of the underground city, the more chaotic it will be. This is inevitable. So you have to be careful and try not to go out unless you have something to do."
Just as he finished speaking, Zhang Can's voice came from outside, "Boss, something's wrong, it's foggy outside!"
"Fog? What kind of fog is this? How can there be smog in the middle of winter?" Li Yu'e muttered as she walked out.
Zhang Can shouted, "It's not smog, it's red fog. It doesn't look right. Boss, remember to wear a mask when you come out."
"Red fog?" Xia Xiaoman followed out curiously. Maodan saw so many people going out and wanted to join in the fun, but he didn't have a mask, so Xia Xiaoman didn't allow him to follow.
Outside the house, there was no fog in the dark night sky, but when I turned on the flashlight, I could see a thin layer of fog in the air. The fog was not thick, but because the red fog was too bright, it was very obvious and could be seen as soon as the light was turned on.
Li Yu'e raised her hand and waved it in the air. "It really is red fog. This isn't smog, so how can there be red fog?"
Xia Xiaoman frowned, "After the geomagnetic problem, many things cannot be explained. This red mist doesn't look right. Sister Yu'e, go back and inform the people in the gang to wear masks when going out."
Li Yu'e looked calm and said, "Don't worry. After I learned about the avian influenza, I asked them to wear masks when going out." As she spoke, she picked up a flashlight and shone it into the sky. Through the red fog, she could vaguely see a few skuas circling in the air.
"These skuas don't seem to react to the red fog." Li Yu'e murmured.
When Xia Xiaoman heard this, she thought about Maodan’s reaction just now. He didn’t seem to be afraid of the red fog. Could it be that the red fog was harmless to humans?
She took two steps forward, wanting to go into the red mist to find out what was going on. Suddenly, she found that the white snow on the ground was stained with a light red. Xia Xiaoman squatted down, shone the flashlight on the snow in front of her, and stretched her head out to take a closer look.
After watching for less than half a minute, Xia Xiaoman's face changed drastically. He stood up and quickly retreated back to the eaves, shouting as he backed away: "This is not fog, it's a bug! Don't stand outside, go back!"
Tiny red particles fell from the sky onto the snow. Within a few seconds, these tiny round particles stretched out and turned into a long, thin worm.
The bugs were very small. If they were not so obvious under the reflection of the white snow, Xia Xiaoman would have found it difficult to find that these "red particles" were actually small bugs curled up into a ball.
Back under the eaves, Xia Xiaoman frantically slapped the bugs on her body. Thinking of the top of her head and her clothes being covered with bugs, Xia Xiaoman felt her scalp tingling.
Li Yu'e and the others also retreated to the eaves and slapped off all the bugs that were stuck to their bodies. After slapping for a while, Li Yu'e looked at her palms.
The palm of his hand was bright red, but it felt quite dry, as if there was a layer of powder on it. He asked in confusion, "Xiao Man, did you see it wrong? I took pictures for a long time, and there is only a layer of powder on my hand. It doesn't look like there are bugs!"
Xia Xiaoman patted the red particles on his body and said, "I can see clearly that these things are bugs, but they are too small. You have to look carefully to see them."
"Boss, it's a bug. Look, it's the same size as a mosquito larva. No, it's half as small as a mosquito larva." Zhang Can shone the flashlight on the back of his hand, where there was a red bug that had just expanded.
Seeing the red bugs crawling on the back of Zhang Can's hand, Li Yu'e's face turned extremely ugly. She slapped the red particles on her body frantically, "Fuck, what kind of bugs are these? How can they fall from the sky!"
After confirming that these red particles were bugs, Li Yu'e was devastated. She really wanted to take a bath, soak herself in hot water from head to toe, and drown all the red bugs!
After roughly brushing off the red particles on her body, Li Yu'e hurriedly said goodbye to Xia Xiaoman and ran home with her head covered with clothes.
She is the leader of the Lingxu Gang. With bugs falling from the sky being such a big event, she has to go back to take charge of the situation and cannot stay here for long.
After Li Yu'e left, Zhang Can and his team returned to the greenhouse and patrolled the corners of the greenhouse. If they found any insects entering the greenhouse, they would immediately burn them to death to prevent them from eating the cotton.
