Stocking up in space: surviving in a world of crisis

Chapter 37 037 High temperature, snake disease 1
The temperature is still rising, and the corpses in the water are rotting faster. You can smell the pungent rancid smell even standing on the balcony. There are many fewer people going out. Not only can you not find supplies, but more, you are still afraid of going outside robbers.

Ye Fu hadn't gone out for half a month. She put the photovoltaic panels on the balcony and charged the batteries. When she was free, she took out the toad venom she had saved before and mixed it into the potion she prepared for emergencies.

The temperature rose back to fifteen degrees, and the air began to swelter.

In the early morning of the next day, there was a knock on Ye Fu's door. Qiu Lan stood outside the door, holding an oval egg in her hand, and handed it to Ye Fu like a treasure.

"Ye Fu, look at this. I picked it up in the corridor. It's also in the water. This is for you. You can eat it. Du Na accidentally broke one just now. She ate it raw for fear of wasting it. She said it tasted like an egg. , just a bit fishy."

Ye Fu glanced at her, and took the egg over. The skin of the egg was very thin, and it was a bit cold. He looked at the sun, but he didn't see anything inside. After shaking it, he could feel the egg liquid flickering inside. .

"is it a lot?"

Qiu Lan nodded, "There are a lot in the water, I haven't told others yet, Ye Fu, let's go pick them up."

Ye Fu's brows were slightly frowned, there must be monsters when things go wrong, it's not normal for so many eggs to appear suddenly.

"You go first, I will come later."

Qiu Lan rushed downstairs excitedly, Ye Fu closed the door and went back to the room, took out an egg from the space, placed it next to the oval egg, and began to observe carefully.

This is definitely not an egg, but more like a crocodile egg, a turtle egg or a snake egg.

Walking to the balcony, Ye Fu took out the binoculars and looked at the water downstairs. As Qiu Lan said, there are many white eggs floating in the water. They don't seem to sink into the water, but just float on the water.

An hour later, other people in the building also found the eggs in the water, and everyone excitedly went downstairs to salvage them. As soon as someone picked them up, they smashed them into pieces and poured them into their mouths.

Ye Fu broke the egg, saw the thick yellow egg white inside, her pupils shrank suddenly, she immediately ran to the balcony, but when she saw the people in the community excitedly salvage in the water, she held back all the words she wanted to say go back.

This is a snake egg. Unlike an egg, a snake egg has a clear yolk and egg white. It is a cloudy yellow egg white. If it is a fertilized snake egg, the embryo pattern can still be seen under the light.

Ye Fu is very afraid of snakes, very, very afraid.

When I see the photos, I get goosebumps, my hairs stand on end, and I feel uncomfortable all over.

There are so many eggs in the community, which is the same as cockroaches. When you see a cockroach, there may already be tens of thousands of cockroaches in the corner.

Ye Fu had a crazy idea. As the temperature rose, hibernating snakes came out one after another. They were huge in number, leaving snake eggs in every corner of the city.snake eggs
Ye Fu dumped the snake eggs into the trash can, then took out the flashlight, and carefully inspected every corner of the house.If the snake eggs hatch, the consequences will be disastrous.

Officer Song's family upstairs also went to pick up snake eggs. Seeing that they salvaged two buckets full, goosebumps appeared on Ye Fu's arms, and the images in his mind were densely packed with snakes.

In the middle of the night, Ye Fu went out quietly and sprinkled some snake repelling powder that he prepared on the corridor.

In the damp and dark floor, densely packed snakes were entangled together, and they spit out their letters and made a "hissing" sound.

The corpse floating in the water was rolled up by the snake's tail, and the snakes surged their bodies and quickly climbed onto the corpse, biting and gnawing frantically.

Beneath the turbid flood, the giant python curled up to recuperate, feeling the change in temperature, it opened its scarlet eyes.

Ye Fu had a nightmare. She dreamed that many snakes came into the house. They got into the quilt and entangled her ankles, knees, waist, neck, and head. She didn't even have the ability to resist. A snake wrapped around her body. On the neck, there was a big, stinky bloody mouth open, revealing sharp teeth. The saliva dripped down, and the viscous liquid exuded a pungent smell. The snake's head approached slowly and slammed into her eyes.

"what……"

Ye Fu panted heavily, she turned on the emergency light, looked around the bedroom vigilantly, saw the bedroom door intact, and limp on the bed as if reborn after a catastrophe.

The survivors who picked up the snake eggs were full of enthusiasm. Ye Fu took a look and then closed the curtains. There was still the smell of scrambled eggs in the air. With food wrapped around their stomachs, the neighbors in the building walked up and down the stairs with brisk steps. .

The water level outside the eighth floor has dropped a bit, but Wu Wanfa’s family, who moved to 1201, can’t move back for the time being. The most diligent people in the building are him and Officer Song. They each carried a bucket of snake eggs upstairs. , Ye Fu called Officer Song to stop.

"These eggs may be snake eggs. After you pick them up, you'd better cook them as soon as possible. The temperature is getting higher and higher. If they are fertilized eggs, they will break their shells soon."

Police Officer Song's face changed. He also guessed whether these eggs might be snake eggs, but Wu Wanfa said that the snake eggs were not so big, and these eggs should be crocodile eggs or eggs of other animals.

"No wonder you didn't pick it up."

Ye Fu smiled, "Snake eggs are not poisonous, but once they hatch into snakes, it will be very troublesome. Moreover, snakes are very vengeful animals. Once the temperature reaches [-] degrees, I suggest that everyone not go out for the time being. All the gaps are plugged."

Police Officer Song believed in Ye Fu's words all the time. After thanking him solemnly, he immediately went home and told everyone about it.

In the next few days, Ye Fu found that there were a lot fewer people picking up eggs. Officer Song was not a selfish person. He would tell others what he knew. As the news spread, everyone in the community began to fear. stand up.

Qiu Lan came once and confirmed the snake egg information with Ye Fu.

It's just that drinking water is very precious now, and everyone can only cook snake eggs.

At the end of June, the temperature reaches twenty-five degrees, the daytime lasts eighteen hours, and the night shortens to six hours.

Cui Li hadn't shown up for half a month, Ye Fu thought it was strange, but she didn't want to meddle in other people's business, and in the next few days, some strange mucus appeared in the corridor.

In the middle of the night, Ye Fu heard something wriggling, she lost all sleepiness, and immediately held her breath and listened carefully to the movement outside.

After a long time, she confirmed that the sound came from outside the window, Ye Fu turned on the flashlight, and opened the curtain with the saber.

When Ye Fu saw the snake lying on the glass, Ye Fu's mind went blank for a moment, and his body became stiff.

This is a red-spotted snake, commonly known as a water snake, slightly poisonous and edible.

This water snake is almost one meter long and has a stout body with black spots on its body and stripes on its back.

Ye Fu and it looked at each other, it hit the glass with its head, making a "bang bang bang" sound, its tail hooked on the iron railing outside the glass, and when the scales rubbed against the iron railing, it made a slight sound.
