Chapter 8 Bacteria

This voice sounded very familiar to Liu Chang, as if it was someone he knew.

"Don't do anything, we don't mean any harm." Liu Chang took two steps forward, and only after he reached the opponent's attack range could he see the opponent's face clearly.

"Teacher Li, it's you indeed." There was indeed a familiar face in front of him. To be precise, it was the face he had just seen this morning - Li Qingshui, the biology teacher in Liu Chang's class.

"Are you...Liu Chang?" Seeing Liu Chang's face, Teacher Li also relaxed his vigilance, and the iron rod he was holding was set aside.

"And I, Liu Tao." Liu Tao also took two steps forward, allowing Teacher Li to see his face clearly.

"Why are you two here?" Li Qingshui stepped out of the way and said, "Go in and talk."

"Yes." Liu Chang and Liu Chang nodded and walked into the equally dark room.

The inside of the house was darker than outside. There was no sunlight, the red mist filled the air, and the wires were damaged by vines outside, so it was even more difficult to see.

But after the eyes adapted to the darkness for a moment, people were able to see each other's outlines clearly when they were closer.

So, after a few seconds of darkness, Liu Chang saw a roomful of familiar faces in the room - all from their school.

There are a total of eight or nine students and a dozen parents here, a total of more than twenty people. It should be a small group formed by the school after the end of the world, and then they found this place together. The founder of this small group should be

It's that biology teacher.

It seems that they are not the only ones who want to find a convenience store as a place to stay.

After walking into the house, Liu Chang saw a few more familiar faces among the familiar faces in the room - the fat man and the glasses.

"Liu Chang, Liu Tao?" The fat man stood up from the crowd, "How did you find this place?"

"It was just a collision." Liu Chang said with a smile: "It's really lucky. The teacher must have gone out to investigate the situation, but unexpectedly he was bumped into us."

"As long as you're okay." The spectacled boy also walked over from his parents, with some guilt in his eyes.

"It's okay, we didn't encounter any danger on the road." When Liu Chang said this, he subconsciously tightened the gun hidden in his arms.

"That's good." Glasses nodded, "This place is safe for the time being."

"There is no safe place in today's world." Teacher Li came over and said: "The current mutation speed of living things is too fast. At this speed, it is even faster than the Cambrian period described in the book, and the surrounding creatures are mutating.

Evolving at this speed, all surrounding creatures will evolve into predators in less than three days. What a strange red mist. Is this red mist the 'free oxygen' of the Cambrian? No wonder the past two years

The scores in the biology class of the college entrance examination were forcibly raised by so many, so they knew it a long time ago..."

Teacher Li's words became quieter and quieter, and only Liu Chang, who was standing next to him, heard his last words.

"What should we do?" Fatty's mother shouted. Teacher Li's words caused a commotion in the house.

"I don't know what to do. Just wait and see what happens and try to survive."

Teacher Li sighed and sat on the ground next to the shelf.

Liu Chang and Liu Tao, after saying a few words to Fatty Glasses, also sat up on the floor.

Time passed quickly, and a moment later, the night came as expected.

The world became truly dark.

The thick red fog can block more than 70% of the light even when the sun is shining brightly. The soft moonlight and starlight are completely blocked from people's sight, and there is no light at all.

In the house, people understood what it means to feel like "you can't even see your fingers at all".

However, in the face of this situation, Teacher Li had already been prepared. He took out a lighter, and with the light of the fire, he lit the two candles he had placed before.

"Candles should be used sparingly, and if the light is too strong, it will become the target of attacks by other creatures." The candlelight drove away part of the darkness, bringing a moment of light to the quiet room.

Sitting under the candlelight, Liu Chang looked at the candlelight that was dyed red. He felt his head was dizzy and the wound on his ankle had an unbearable itching feeling.

After finding a deserted corner, Liu Chang took off his shoes. With the help of the faint light, he just loosened the bandage on his foot when a stench like a rotting corpse came out.

"Hmm!" Liu Chang was almost choked by the smell of his own body. He forced his nose to adapt to the smell. What he saw was a wound that was even more terrifying than the smell.

All the wounds were festered and the flesh and blood turned red, white and yellow, which was simply unsightly.

"The wound is infected!" Teacher Li's voice came from behind Liu Chang. He stepped forward, held Liu Chang's feet and pressed the area around his wound.

"Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt, it's very itchy!"

"It's infected." Teacher Li adjusted his glasses and stared at the festering wound carefully, "Do you have any medicine?"

"Yes." Liu Chang took out his schoolbag, which contained some commonly used pills.

"Are there any antibiotics?" Teacher Li looked at the various medicines in Liu Chang's schoolbag.

"No."

"Then take some anti-inflammatory drugs, more of them!" Looking at the horrific wound again, Teacher Li frowned and said, "This wound looks too horrible, completely different from ordinary ulcers!!! It seems like

It’s not just large organisms that have evolved and mutated in this world, these bacteria have also mutated!”

"Uh." Liu Chang took out the medicine and saw that it said one tablet at a time on the anti-inflammatory medicine, so he poured out an extra tablet and took twice the dose.

"Eating more may not necessarily help." Teacher Li still frowned deeply.

"Oh." After listening to his words, Liu Chang poured out two more pills and swallowed them with the mineral water in the convenience store.

"Who has alcohol or iodine?" Seeing Liu Chang taking the medicine, Teacher Li shouted to the crowd in the darkness.

As a result, no response was received.

The room was quiet, no one made a sound.

"It's not that serious. It's just a wound infection. When I was a child, I often had ulcers and infections."

"When you were a child, you often encountered mice and dogs. Is this the same? You know, simple organisms are prone to large mutations. Even in normal times, bacterial mutations are very common, let alone today.

What kind of situation?"

"Is the matter serious?" After hearing Li Qingshui's words, Liu Chang's heart sank. If even the most docile animals have become cruel, then the usually ferocious pathogenic bacteria may really be even more terrifying.

"I don't know either, let's take a look." Li Qingshui sighed and stopped talking, and the room became quiet again.

Putting his feet up on the bench of the convenience store, Liu Chang did not dare to wrap up the festering wound anymore. Perhaps because the smell emanating from his body was so unpleasant, no one came around him, not even Li Qingshui, who had just come over.

I don't know what to do inside.

Time passed slowly in this strange silence.

Liu Chang just leaned against the wall with his legs crossed. He felt more and more dizzy and his body began to feel colder and colder.
