Chapter 54 The Strange 'Jelly'

Ling Tao found four of the ash pole trees in total, and dug them all back. There was no tool to process them, so they could only use local materials and burn the roots with fire. the point.

After some polishing with the ground stones, the carbonized part was removed, so that a wooden gun was 'made'. Although it was only a wooden stick with two relatively sharp ends, it had a certain lethality.

Ling Tao's actions undoubtedly reminded others that the remaining three tree trunks, one of which was relatively thick, was turned into a long stick by Zhang Guohua, which was used as his convenient weapon.

The other two were cut off by the fire and became four wooden sticks that were about the same size. Wang Jun had two sticks to himself, and one end was sharpened, which could be used for smashing and assassination. Skills have come into play. Of course, the wooden stick is a wooden stick after all, and it is relatively long, so it cannot be compared with weapons like military stabs.

The remaining two Mixu long sticks, one of which was given to Jiang Feifei, she used it as a crutch and also as a weapon when she was in danger, of course, don't expect much help from such a delicate girl .

As for Yu Miaomiao, she had a bow and arrow, but she didn't need a wooden stick, so the remaining long Mixu stick became Ling Tao's. There was a long weapon, a wooden gun, and a short weapon, a wooden stick.

Although it was just a wooden stick, with the weapon in hand, the group felt a lot more at ease.

"Tsk, I've been busy all day, the sun is almost setting, we just crossed a bridge, at this speed, when will we reach City S?" Holding two sharp wooden sticks, Wang Jun looked at the 'Broken Bridge' on the opposite side sighed.

It took half a day to see Zhang Guohua making straw ropes in the morning, going down the mountain and crossing the river. This time, he made weapons for food, almost a day passed before he knew it, and the sun was about to set.

"Let's pack up and leave later. We can go as far as we can, and we have to find a place to stay overnight before dark," Ling Tao said, looking at the sky.

Although it took less than '[-] meters' to walk in one day, there was no other way.

After several hours of scorching sun, the fish under Zhang Guohua's slices was almost dry, and he packed it into Ling Tao's backpack, a big bulging bag. Although the water was dried and the inedible parts were removed, it was light It's only fifty or sixty catties of dried fish. If five people save some, they can eat it for a few days.

"These fish bones and teeth are pretty good, but I have no tools in hand. Otherwise, they can be processed into good weapons. It's a pity..." Then Ling Tao looked at the fish bones all over the floor and shook his head and said.

"What's the use of this thing? It doesn't have the technology to inlay it on a wooden stick, and it's too short to be used as a weapon alone." Wang Jun pouted and said, he was idle and bored, and pointed the sharp end of the wooden stick in his hand at a piece of fish head. The bone spur went down.

With a click, the fish's skull was broken.

Although Wang Jun's move was just an unintentional move, the next scene made everyone present curious.

I saw a blood-colored mist rising from the fish skull pierced by him, spreading like a spray. Although it was not much, it made everyone present smell the same sweet fragrance. It smells good, but it quickly dissipates and disappears.

"What's the situation? It can't be that there is still blood in the fish skull. I destroyed the skull and burst out due to the pressure of the air." Wang Jun looked at the fish skull in front of him and said dumbfounded.

"Wait, what is this?"Ling Tao stopped Wang Jun from immediately pulling out the wooden stick and said, squatting down all of a sudden, approaching the fish skull pierced by him to observe carefully.

The wooden stick in Wang Jun's hand was as thick as a fingertip. After piercing the fish's skull, the crack formed made Ling Kong see that there were other things in the fish's skull.

A transparent red crystal-like thing, not a solid, but a liquid, but very viscous, like jelly.

"What the hell"?Wang Jun also squatted down to observe carefully.

With the swing of the stick in his hand, the red liquid in the fish's skull also shook slightly.

"Shouldn't any animal have a brain in its head? Why is there such a thing in the fish's skull?"Ling Tao said in amazement, and took advantage of the opportunity to pick up the fish skull.

Unexpectedly, after picking up the fish skull, the red liquid in the skull dripped out along the cracks, and fell to the ground and was still rolling.

All the red liquid that dripped out was only the size of a glass bead. It was as transparent as glass, but it condensed like jelly and rolled on the ground until it finally stopped on a small stone.

"What is this stuff"?Wang Jun was curious and stretched out two fingers to get it.

But Wang Jun's actions were stopped by Ling Tao, who said: "Don't move, fat man, we've never seen such a thing before, don't mess around, if it's poisonous or something, it's over."

"Uh, yes, but, what the hell is this? Shouldn't there be brains in the fish's head? How could this thing appear?"Wang Jun scratched his head in doubt.

Ling Tao thought for a while, picked up a fishbone from the side, and stabbed it carefully into the drop of jelly-like red 'liquid' without any hindrance, as if it was really just jelly, but after the fishbone was pulled out, the The thing is not sticky at all, it is completely separated from the fishbone, and it is still a drop of crystal clear 'jelly'!
"Strange, is this unique to the mutated strange fish, or is it just this fish?"Wang Jun wondered, after thinking for a while, he got up with a stick, followed the same pattern, and knocked out all the skulls of more than a dozen other fish, but there was no such thing in the skulls of other fish.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence, or maybe it's something that the fish grew out of when it was sick." Ling Tao shook his head and got up and said, he never took the risk of using his hands to thump it. It's better to slam it less for such unknown things.

"Forget it, let's go." Zhang Guohua next to him didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing. In the countryside, there were fist-sized stones growing in pig stomachs. He was not surprised by this kind of thing.

Next, Zhang Guohua volunteered to carry a package containing dozens of catties of fish meat on his back. He has great strength, so it is no problem to carry this little thing. If it was Ling Tao and the other two, I am afraid that they would be tired after walking too far. Down.

Due to the flatness of the railway, the injured Yu Miaomiao and Jiang Feifei were able to move on their own. As for Wang Jun and Ling Tao, they carried the straw rope. After several hours in the sun, the moisture in the straw rope evaporated, and the weight Much lighter.

Ling Tao, who walked a few steps, thought for a while and stopped. He reached for the drop of jelly-like red liquid. The red 'jelly' should be useful, and there is no danger, so keep it by your side and study it slowly.

The 'jelly' is soft in the hand, no different from real jelly, but it has no taste.

"Why are you picking up this stuff, if it's poisonous or something, you're screwed," Wang Jun returned what Ling Tao had said before.

"I'm just curious, let's go," Ling Tao said with a smile, wrapped the 'jelly' in a leaf and put it in his trouser pocket, then he and Wang Jun lifted the straw rope again to follow Zhang Guohua and the others.

The reason why I brought a straw rope was because I thought it might be of some use later, and Zhang Guohua weaved it with great difficulty, so it would be a pity to lose it.

Back on the railway again, although the road was easy to walk, because of the two wounded, their speed was not fast.

Perhaps it is because there is no ant colony on this side of the river. After walking for a long time, I can already hear the sound of insects in the grass on the side, and I can even hear birds in the distance. The world seems to be restored all of a sudden. The vitality is general.

Given the previous encounters, the group of people were all cautious, trying their best to walk in the middle of the railway, not getting close to the grass on the side. They walked for more than an hour and did not encounter any danger when the sky darkened.

"Next, let's find a place to rest for the night. It's not safe if we don't see it when we drive at night," Ling Tao said after looking at the sky.

No one objected, especially the two wounded, Yu Miaomiao and Jiang Feifei, who had almost reached their limit after reluctantly walking for an hour.

To spend the night in the wild, no matter what season it is, it is necessary to build a fire. It can not only dispel the chill at night, but also effectively drive away some wild animals. After all, many wild creatures are afraid of fire.

When the bonfire was lit, it was completely dark. This was the third night that Ling Tao and others were going to spend in the wild, and it had been more than 72 hours since the X virus ravaged the world.

Without the Internet, without all modern equipment, the group can only sit around the fire.

Zhang Guohua used straw ropes to arrange around, and piled up several stone piles with stones, and the straw ropes were wrapped around the stone piles. Once something approaches the grass ropes, it will cause the stone piles to fall, which can serve as a warning .

Make the most of what you have to stay safe without tools.

Having nothing to do, Wang Jun and Ling Tao went to the side to practice military boxing. After two times, they were hungry and sweating profusely.

"Get something to eat, rest for one night, and continue on the road tomorrow morning," Ling Tao said after resting for a while.

Although Wang Jun said that this set of military boxing can exercise all parts of the human body, Ling Tao, who has only been exposed to military boxing for two days, has not seen any effect yet.

Dinner is still fish without any condiments. It is naturally not delicious to eat after roasting on the fire, but in order to fill the stomach, no matter how delicate people have to eat it.

Resting in the field, someone must keep watch at night. After some arrangements, Ling Tao was the first to watch the night, and everyone else fell asleep exhausted. Ling Tao, who had nothing to do, took out the red jelly that appeared in the fish skull again. 'Put it in your hand and look at it....
