Chapter 156
As soon as he sat down on the chair, Ni Yangzhou thought it was snowing.
The sky was covered with fluffy white, and the road ahead was invisible. Just at the place closest to the ground, a little dark color of the asphalt road could be seen when the wind blew.
"That is……"
The car window was closed, and Yin Jiazhu stopped the young man's hand from opening the window.
"Have you forgotten the evergreen?"
Of course I remember.
Ni Yangzhou felt that the nonsense he uttered when he was poisoned last time could be recorded among the countless shames in his life.
"The white pappus of a dandelion." Yin Jiazhu explained and turned off the car. He had to do so because the engine was noisy, probably because too many pappus were involved.
"Wait a moment, I'll go down and fix the car."
Ni Yangzhou looked at the whiteness of the world, and was somewhat disoriented. The words from his elementary school textbook emerged from his memory:
A dandelion, a group of little paratroopers.
I wonder how many dandelions there are among these little paratroopers everywhere.
I have actually seen them on the road I walked, but I don't know if it was because of the time difference, but the dandelions I encountered before were just in the stage of blooming yellow flowers and had not spread seeds. They looked like giant still lifes. I didn't expect that this ordinary biological characteristic would be so bizarre and speechless after being magnified dozens of times, as if the earth's topography had been changed by some alien creature invading.
Ni Yangzhou interrupted his own wandering thoughts and stopped Yin Jiazhu who was about to open the door.
"Brother, don't get off yet."
Yin Jiazhu knew it was dangerous to get off the car, but the car couldn't move and the journey had just begun, so the two of them couldn't be trapped by this.
"The car needs to be fixed."
Ni Yangzhou nodded: "But we haven't confirmed whether it is a xenobiotic plant."
We drove for more than two days, still in the mountains and forests. After all, when we first drew the route, we chose a remote road, which was safer.
For plants with high mobility like dandelions, it is hard to tell whether they have already caught and eaten some zombies.
“Look at the animals first.”
The two men stuck to the car window and looked out, but there were too many dandelion seeds, blocking out the sun, and they could not see any trace of animals at all.
"There weren't so many at the beginning, but after a while, they became more and more dense."
Yin Jiazhu looked at the vast expanse of white sky and earth, and had a bad feeling in his heart. When he first called the young man out, it was just snowing, but during the time he spoke, it seemed as if the whole world was occupied by white.
"The wind is blowing, let's wait a little longer."
The two sat quietly in the car, as if they were isolated in a separate little world.
Ni Yangzhou felt a little nauseous as he watched the densely packed large seeds floating before his eyes. It felt as if each seed was pulling a giant brown and black fleshy worm.
After waiting for nearly three hours, the wind died down a bit.
Ni Yangzhou had been sitting for too long, and his buttocks and legs were a little numb, but he was not idle. He took out a notebook and wrote down some mutant creatures whose names he could remember.
There were also some people he didn't know but who looked quite distinctive, so Ni Yangzhou looked up their names in a book he had downloaded from the Internet in advance.
Finally, the scenery outside the car window became a little more normal. The ground was covered with pappus as high as the wheels of the car. It looked fluffy, like a thick and soft quilt.
"I'll get off." The man said and was about to get out of the car.
"No, don't, brother, let me try first."
Ni Yangzhou and Yin Jiazhu looked at each other. The man saw the determination in the other's eyes and did not say the word of refusal.
The young man struck while the iron was hot and pressed the button to lower the window: "I will try it carefully. There is still room anyway. I value my life very much."
Yin Jiazhu clenched his fingers in a corner where the other party couldn't see him, his nails digging deeply into his palms. He could not provide the data the young man wanted, nor did he have any means for the young man to protect himself.
Too little, too little of everything.
Yin Jiazhu suppressed all the secret thoughts that he couldn't express out loud.
"open it."
Yin Jiazhu finally pressed the unlock button.
Ni Yangzhou raised the corner of his mouth and gave his elder brother a reassuring smile, then lowered the car window a little bit, just enough for a finger's width to be stretched out.
Looking down at his ten fingers, Ni Yangzhou decided to contribute his right index finger, which is his commonly used hand and has the fastest reaction speed.
Leaning out of the car window slowly, Ni Yangzhou saw a little paratrooper floating over, with long crested hair, like exploding fireworks.
near, near.
The moment the long hair touched his fingers, Ni Yangzhou felt as if he was touching the hair of some small animal, soft and light. As he stroked it, the white little umbrella flew away like a flying animal on land without any nostalgia.
"Brother, it's okay!"
Ni Yangzhou was surprised at the touch of his fingertips and smiled widely. Yin Jiazhu, who had been nervous, couldn't help but relax a little when he saw this.
After a few days of rest, the young man's face was no longer as pale as at the beginning. He had just worked in the space for half a day, so his face was rosy and he looked very healthy.
"I think An..."
"Ah shit!"
Before he finished the first half of the sentence, Ni Yangzhou's smile disappeared in less than half a second. He quickly withdrew his right hand and quickly raised the car window with his other hand.
"what happened?"
Yin Jiazhu stretched out his hand to pull Ni Yangzhou's finger, but Ni Yangzhou didn't let him pull it successfully. He flipped his hand and a sharp knife appeared in his left hand:
"Brother, cut off this piece of meat, quickly!"
Ni Yangzhou is right-handed and his left hand is not flexible enough.
Yin Jiazhu took the knife and saw that there was a black line on the young man's right index finger twisting wildly, as if it was drilling into the skin.
"Quick! Brother!"
Ni Yangzhou endured the pain. This thing looked small, but it was like a serrated needle. Every time it went in a little bit, it caused extreme pain.
Finally he understood what "the ten fingers are connected to the heart" meant. Ni Yangzhou now felt like cursing.
Yin Jiazhu lowered his head and concentrated fully. He moved very steadily and cut off the flesh in the center of his fingertip in an instant. Ni Yangzhou almost cried out in pain.
The man dug out the nematode and quickly took out a lighter and lit it with the tip of the knife. A burst of white smoke came out, and the nematode, along with a small bit of meat, turned into charcoal.
“It hurts so much!”
Ni Yangzhou waited until the crisis was resolved before he howled, "What the hell is that! A leech with a saw-like mouth? It's killing me!"
Yin Jiazhu was sweating as he listened to the other person's voice: "Zhouzhou, disinfect."
"Oh, it hurts so much. OK, OK, big brother, I'll take it."
Ni Yangzhou took out the first aid kit from the space with a bitter face, and Yin Jiazhu disinfected and bandaged the wound very quickly without aggravating the other party's pain.
After all the trouble, Ni Yangzhou held up his index finger which was wrapped like a sausage, his mouth drooping, still breathing slowly because of the pain.
He cried like this just because a scrap of flesh was cut off. Didn't you see that Big Brother didn't say a word even though there was a piece of broken glass stuck in the back of his head? Ni Yangzhou successfully pua himself and said slowly while enduring the pain:
"Brother, it's feasible."
Yin Jiazhu's pair of pure black eyes were deep and calm, but he seemed exceptionally silent.
"How is that possible?"
Ni Yangzhou used his good hand to dig out a garbage bag, his mouth corners raised again, his eyes shining.
"Look!"
A mass of foul-smelling rotten vegetation was poured into the garbage bag by Ni Yangzhou, like vomit chewed by a prehistoric monster.
"Other plants will quickly rot and become inactive if they are placed in space."
Ni Yangzhou raised his head, with a look in his eyes that was hard to ignore.
"Brother, my golden finger is going to show its power!"
