Chapter 793: Encountered a ghost wall?
This place is completely out of the shadow of the city, and it is even a desolate place, a real no-man's land. Even plants do not exist, let alone buildings.
Judging from Jingshu's night vision, the place was covered with heavy snow. Because it had never been maintained, the snow was several meters high.
Fortunately, because the weather was too cold, the snow below had turned into ice chips, and only the snow above, more than one meter thick, still made a crackling sound when stepped on.
Every step the giant insects took seemed very difficult. It was the resistance of the heavy snow and the impact of carrying heavy objects. Here, any means of transportation was useless. Only these primitive giant insects could travel on this snowy ground.
Under the bright light of the flashlight, Lian Xiaowei was a little surprised: "This place is too primitive, it feels like it has never been developed."
The tribesmen around her said, "There's nothing to see here. It's easy to get lost in places like this... Let's mark the way along the way."
Xiaowei nodded and said, "I'll leave one bug every kilometer as a signal. This way I can get a clearer sense of the direction and won't get lost."
Jingshu also secretly kept some mud mermaids. Not only that, she also sent out some mermaids to spread out with her as the center to look for the Hulk.
This way, no matter what dangerous or unknown things happen, you will feel safe.
This place is obviously colder than Wucheng. Jingshu and her friends all brought windproof long-haired tent cars when they went out, especially the super luxurious large insect car built for Xiaowei, which was as big as a small house.
There was no crowd inside. Everyone was wearing thick, long-wool clothes and sitting cross-legged on thick and soft blankets. Jingshu heated up milk tea on a small stove, fried hand-pulled pancakes, fish fillets and sausages, and spread homemade salad dressing on them. That was how she spent her morning meal.
Xiaowei’s is an extra-large hand-pulled pancake, which is filled with layer upon layer of stuffing.
Although Jingshu’s is simple, she usually finishes one in two bites and eats it very quickly.
When you are out and about, you tend to eat simpler and less picky.
After breakfast, we would put a pot on the fixed stove, stew pork tripe and chicken, add various dried mushrooms, and then sprinkle with various ingredients we brought, such as dried abalone, squid, shrimp, etc.
After simmering for a few hours, just around noon, put the frozen dough pancakes on top of the pot. When they turn golden brown and crackle, you can take the pancakes and eat some simple dishes with the rich soup inside.
There are many insects, so we can bring more food. It doesn't feel cumbersome at all. Even if we get lost in this world, no one is afraid. There are all kinds of daily necessities, which are all earned by Xiaowei himself.
Xiaowei is now considered a rich woman. The supplies she has exchanged for so many insects are enough for her people to enjoy a luxurious life in the apocalypse.
Just like that, I placed the insect placement points as I walked, walking in a straight line.
Gradually, Jingshu discovered the green mucus. From sparse at the beginning, it became so thick that it was worth stepping on when walking on the road.
"Is this slime our target this time? This slime looks disgusting. Once it sticks to you, it can't be removed."
"I saw some insects' legs corroded by the mucus. Could this mucus be corrosive?"
Jingshu nodded in understanding. If she guessed correctly, this mucus should be the excrement of the Hulk? It was indeed quite disgusting. It seemed that if she wanted to breed so many Hulks in the future, she would have to find a special excrement pool for them. Otherwise, with so many Hulks, how much mucus would they have to poop?
If people urinate and defecate anywhere, the whole city of Wu will probably be in great trouble.
The Hulk's feces cannot be used as fertilizer, but the mud mermaid's feces can at least be used to make a biogas tank.
Oh, each of these things is really a headache.
Jingshu began to discover fist-sized 'green giants' rolling in the snow. They were also looking for their own kind to merge and complete their growth.
My process.
As for how these dark creatures reproduced, Jingshu didn't know. How did bacteria reproduce? I heard that they reproduced by replicating, one replicating into two, two replicating into four, and they also had a common signal tower. If one bacterium became resistant, they would share this information with the others.
The connection between them is very subtle.
On this day, a group of fist-sized Hulks fought and merged in a snow pit. Jingshu was very excited and witnessed it all with her own eyes. In the end, the winner was the king. A Hulk the size of a fat chicken was born. Although there was still a long way to go before he could become a giant, Jingshu believed that under her guidance, all of this would not be a problem.
So, Jingshu caught the green giant back to her tent, turned around and sent it into the space, ready to study it carefully.
"Good luck, let's keep going!"
The next day, Jingshu witnessed another fight between two Hulks at the same time, and caught another Hulk the same size as a fat chicken.
Jingshu brought it into the space, let it stay with Xiaoyi, and named it Xiaoer.
"You two look exactly the same. Do all Hulks look the same?" Jingshu was a little surprised. As far as she knew, there were no two creatures in the world that were exactly the same.
Eggs look different from each other, and no two are exactly the same, let alone living things.
The large group of people continued to advance in a mighty manner.
On the third day, at the same time, we encountered a group of fist-sized green giants.
Jingshu frowned, feeling that something seemed a little different.
Then these Hulks gave birth to another big Hulk. After Jingshu caught it, she named it Xiaosan and put it into the space. She looked at them and found that they looked exactly the same.
But when I saw them merge, they clearly didn't look exactly the same. The mucus didn't even have the same shape, so how could they be the same size and position after merging?
"Xiaowei, is your bug all right?"
"The bugs I placed are all doing fine."
Jingshu nodded and stopped talking, because the mud mermaids' spot and their patrols around were all safe and there was nothing unusual.
But Jingshu felt vaguely uneasy.
At the same time, at the same place and at the same time, she met the same Hulk again, and Jingshu took the Hulk in.
At this time, everyone felt that something was wrong.
"Are we stuck in a maze? Have we been stuck in the same spot for so many days?"
"But the bugs are facing each other every kilometer. I released 330 bugs in total. Each one is correct in terms of signal and direction. We are indeed moving forward in a straight line." Xiaowei said affirmatively.
