Chapter 111: Zombies That Can Make Nests
Zhang Jike, who had been drooping his eyelids, frowned and murmured to himself. Although he had not heard what Xu Xiaoxiao was saying, he had invisibly answered her question.
"What are you doing in the river? Zombies are not ducks. Could it be that they can go into the water to swim?"
Shao Xiuqi was also interested, and her curiosity overwhelmed the fear in her heart and began to lie on the window and observe it outside.
"I really can't swim, you guys see..."
Ma Long forced himself to stabilize his emotions and said calmly. Everyone looked in the direction of his fingers and found that driven by the horse-level zombies, the zombies in the group of corpses were like dumplings that had been put into the pot, one after another falling into the river...
The river water, which was not originally clear, became increasingly turbid with the zombies. Because the secondary infected bodies did not have the ability to see objects, and were pushed forward by their companions, they could not change the direction of their progress at all.
"What's this? Be righteous, eliminate the same kind, and contribute to the purification of the world?"
Everyone looked at the incredible scene in front of them, and a big question mark appeared in their heads.
"Impossible. Horse-level zombies are not smart. They can only act on their instincts and drive away their fellow speculations such as jumping into the river to kill relatives for justice, which is obviously outrageous."
Ma Long murmured, his eyes full of disbelief.
"But this outrageous scene happened. Is it possible that these two horse-level zombies, like Zhang Ning, also retained the mutant of their past consciousness?"
Xu Xiaoxiao curled up his index finger and drilled his joints to his temples a few times, as if he wanted to use this method to make himself more awake. He thought about what was hidden in it carefully.
The falling secondary infected bodies floated and floated in the turbid river water. Regardless of whether they mastered the swimming skill during their lifetime, they became landslides after being infected into zombies. They could only struggle in the water with their already buoyancy. The river water flowed into their wide open mouths, compressing the air in their bodies, and slowly increasing weight dragged their bodies down little by little.
The two horse-level zombies were very efficient. After a while, only a few zombies were left on the shore. When they sensed that the last few secondary infected bodies were still on the shore and refused to go into the water for a long time, the two horse-level zombies raised one foot very skillfully, and without exerting much force, they kicked the remaining zombies into the river.
For a moment, only two tall horse-level zombies were left on the shore. The two zombies sniffed in the air, their big mouths filled with fangs slightly opened, and kept making low roars towards the river.
The two zombies performed very strangely. They kept wandering around the river, without any sign of leaving, but they seemed to dare not get too close to the river water. They just roared at about five or six meters away from the river, as if they were waiting for something.
"Comrade Xiaoma, these zombies are really not wise? Why do I think these two horse-level zombies are fighting nests..."
Uncle Ni broke the silence in the car and lowered his voice.
"Make a nest?"
Everyone, including Zhang Jike and Ma Long, were stunned. It took a long time to understand what Mr. Ni said.
Break a nest is a professional term that flows in the circle of professional anglers and amateur fishing enthusiasts. It refers to in order to improve the efficiency of fishing and increase the probability of fish taking the bait, anglers often put a certain amount of bait at the target position before fishing, thereby inducing fish in the river to gather towards the fishing spot.
After hearing what Mr. Ni said, everyone looked at the zombies wandering on the river bank again, and suddenly felt that it was like this. Two horse-level zombies wandered around the shore, like two fishermen who were patiently waiting for the fish to gather.
"This should be just a coincidence. Captain Ma didn't say just now that this kind of zombie is not wise. Will it really be like Xiao Xiao guessed that the two horse-level zombies in front retained their consciousness during their lifetime, so they did this."
Shao Xiuqi moved her body with difficulty, as if she wanted to soothe her numb glutes in the crowded carriage, but she was surrounded by the strong Xu Xiaoxiao, and the limited space was almost occupied by this muscular girl. In desperation, she could only settle for the second best to stroke the hair on her forehead and whisper.
"If we retained our consciousness like Zhang Ning, then wouldn't we communicate normally with each other?"
When Xu Xiaoxiao heard that his guess was supported, his excited voice immediately raised a little, but soon tried to restrain himself and returned to his previous state of speaking in a low voice.
"It's a bit too early to draw this conclusion now..."
Ma Long's gaze never moved away from the front and said in a low voice.
"Zhang Ning's situation should be a very special type. He almost carries all the characteristics of a pawn-level zombie, but he retains his mind and mind as a human being."
"Compared with Zhang Ning, the two horse-level zombies are a little different. Let's not talk about whether their series of strange behaviors are subjective and if they still retain their human consciousness, why don't they communicate with each other in words, but roar?"
Ma Long stretched out his finger and pointed it in the air a few times. Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and found that the two zombies on the opposite side were constantly roaring towards the river surface, and there was no sign of "people" on their bodies.
"Then why did they drive their kind to Fenghua River..."
Yan Hanfeng was completely confused. He didn't say much from the beginning. Due to the fear in his heart, he always listened to everyone's discussion. But now that the discussion is over, it seems that after a long round and back to the starting point...
"Precaution quietly, we can do nothing except wait..."
Ma Long said softly, comforting Yan Hanfeng who was sitting in the main driving position again. He could see that the other party's psychological tolerance was not strong, but fortunately, Yan Hanfeng returned to quiet again and stared at the changes outside the car window with everyone.
Not long after Ma Long comforted Yan Hanfeng, changes occurred in the river not far away.
The turbid river water surged with layers of white waves, and several vortexes of different sizes appeared on the calm river surface without any warning. Most of the zombies that were floating in the river water were swept into the vortex and never floated up again.
The remaining zombies didn't know what happened, so they could only suffocate in the river water in vain. A few lucky ones grabbed the raised stones on the shore and crawled towards the shore under instinctive drive. However, as soon as they emerged, the horse-level zombies on the shore would appear immediately, and they stepped forward and kicked the head of the zombie who was trying to get ashore, causing its body to fall again towards the river.
"Damn it, it's so weird. It seems that there is something in the river. Could it be that Mr. Ni is really trying to be called out by him? These two horse-level zombies are using their similar bodies to make nests?"
Malone's muscles twitched, and she still couldn't believe the outrageous scene in front of her.
"If the horse-level zombies really use those secondary infected bodies as bait, how big is the tempted creature?"
Just as he frowned and thought hard, a huge splash of water broke his thoughts and attracted everyone's eyes.
There were no zombies floating on the river. At the place where the zombies were originally falling into the water, a huge snake-shaped head suddenly appeared!
From a distance, the height of the head alone is more than the height of an adult. The neck connected to it is more than two meters wide. The skin is green and covered with yellow spots of different sizes. The monster's skin is not smooth, with wrinkles and bumps of all sizes, which look wrinkled, very much like an old tree bark.
What is most terrifying is that in the monster's big black mouth, there is still a corpse of half a zombie. The upper body of the corpse has already entered the monster's mouth, and only two thighs are still exposed. I don't know whether it is because of nerve twitching or the monster's biting, the legs are constantly swaying in the air, causing an indelible visual impact on everyone.
The monster, who looked like a snake head, slowly chewed the zombies in his mouth. His two big yellow eyes stared at the horse-level zombies on the shore, as if they were waiting, but also as if they were provoking.
The atmosphere in the car was extremely silent. Yan Hanfeng and Shao Xiuqi subconsciously held their breath after seeing the monsters coming out of the water. When facing creatures that were stronger than themselves, the fear hidden in their hearts was instantly detonated. At that moment, everyone in the car felt as if they had returned to the wilderness and felt the despair of humans becoming prey again!
"Look, I'm right. These two horse-level zombies are really fighting nests. They should be trying to seduce this old turtle?"
Mr. Ni's psychological tolerance was surprisingly good. After experiencing the initial shock, he quickly returned to calm. His two somewhat turbid eyes looked at the giant creature outside the car window curiously and whispered to everyone.
"Old turtle?"
Ma Long and Zhang Jike were stunned when they heard this, then carefully looked at the monsters on the river surface, and then nodded with great enlightenment.
"After Mr. Ni reminded me, this giant creature really looks a bit like a turtle, but it is a turtle that has been enlarged several times, and there are many things that were not originally there..."
After chewing, the giant creature suddenly opened its mouth and bit it forward. With a gurgling sound, its wrinkled neck swelled, and it swallowed half of the body directly into its mouth and swallowed it.
After swallowing the corpse in his mouth, the giant creature with a snake-like head did not rush back to the water, but continued to stare at the horse-level zombies on the shore with two big tire-like eyes. What appeared in his eyes was not fear and curiosity, but deep greed.
"The zombie group that fell into the water just now, not to mention a hundred, but at least eighty. There is not a single zombie on the river now. Most of them were swallowed up by this giant turtle. After eating so much, he was not full yet. He still wanted to attack two horse-level zombies on the shore?"
