There is also an outbreak of a thread-shaped parasite here. If people are accidentally infected, they will lose their self-awareness in pain and become zombies.
After these parasites have absorbed the nutrients from their hosts, they will control them to devour others and switch to parasitism again.
He Xiaobei was frightened by what he described, and the first thing that came to his mind was zombies?
However, there is obviously a big difference. Zombies will always follow their instincts to find food, but if they are infected with parasites, they will die after a period of time.
It’s a good thing that it’s not the case, otherwise with natural disasters and zombies, the living environment for humans would be even more difficult.
However, the current environment is not much better. Things that once only parasitized insects have mutated and have begun to parasitize humans.
Once harmless plants have mutated and have added humans to their diet, not to mention mutated animals.
After describing the parasites, the man repeatedly reminded He Xiaobei that any food eaten here must be cooked thoroughly and the water must be boiled for more than 3 minutes before drinking.
"Is there no way for the infected person to survive?"
The man shook his head.
"The doctors at our base said that the parasites burrow directly into the central nervous system and brainstem. Once discovered, the person is beyond saving."
He Xiaobei understood. Not to mention the end of the world, even before the end of the world, if someone's brain was infected by parasites, there would be no way to save him.
The man talked for more than twenty minutes before he stopped, then looked at He Xiaobei with anticipation.
"Vegetables, food, guns, and medicine, what do you want?"
The reason why the option of medicine was added was because the man just said that many children in the base had recently started to suffer from diarrhea, and many even died. They suspected that it was a new type of virus.
In fact, she could get the information provided by the man by asking anyone after logging in, so the medicine was considered to be at a premium. She also sighed in her heart that at this time, only these brothers were still reproducing.
The Kyoto base encourages childbirth so much and offers various preferential treatments, but few people go to have children.
After hearing what she said, the man was delighted:
"I'll go talk to my crew."
After saying that, he immediately rowed his boat back. After just a moment, the boat approached again, but this time the person coming was a different one, and it seemed to be the captain.
"Are you really willing to provide us with medicine?"
"It's not an offer, it's a reward for your information. But you should also know that the value of the information is not as high as I imagined."
The captain naturally knew that they were just ordinary fishermen and only knew the general situation, so he didn't dare to ask more and simply threw the question back to He Xiaobei:
"We want some medicine to treat the child's diarrhea. As for how much you can give us, it's up to you."
After hearing this, He Xiaobei sighed and finally took out 10 boxes of montmorillonite powder, each box containing 10 small packets.
This is a common medicine for treating diarrhea. I bought a lot of it when I was stocking up, and I also collected a lot of it for free.
Although it is cheap and the effect is not immediate, it has the advantage of being mild in nature, safe and with few side effects.
And because it is common and cheap, people won't cause any trouble over it.
The captain was startled at first when he saw the medicine suddenly appear in her hand, then he saw He Xiaobei put the belt into the bag and threw it into the sea, his heart was in his throat.
But before he could remind him, he saw that the medicine did not get wet after falling into the sea, but floated up quickly.
In the blink of an eye, a bag floated in front of his boat. A huge hand made of water lifted the bag from the water and handed it to him.
The captain took the medicine and was filled with gratitude. He praised her repeatedly, saying that the gods in heaven had blessed her and that he hoped she would live forever.
He Xiaobei raised his hand speechlessly and pushed his boat away. These people set sail reluctantly and left.
When the people on the boat were far away, she quickly got on board, raised anchor and sailed away.
First, she was afraid that someone else would come and bother her, and second, she was too afraid of the parasites described by that group of people.
Since it can parasitize humans on land, who knows if there are any in the seas near them? We should be more careful when feeding lightning to fish in the future.
This time he did not go with the flow, but directly checked the direction with an electronic map and controlled it with his supernatural powers. He sailed for two full days and only stopped when he was completely away from that sea area.
