Chapter 4 Nowhere to Run

"Pack up your things, let's leave Xichuan Town first!"

Zhang Ji said, Zhang Zhishan hesitated for a while, he was reluctant to part with the family he had lived in for decades.

But looking at the bloodstains in the distance, and hearing the cries and shouts on the street, he also knew that Xichuan Town was not safe, so he sighed and hurriedly packed his things.

The father and son hurried out with only a few changes of clothes, but as soon as they walked onto the street, they saw a group of people running wildly in the fog in the distance, crying and shouting.

"There's no way. The way out of town is gone."

"The forest surrounds our Xichuan Town, we can't get out!"

"Where is the police, help us!"

The shouts were hysterical, and blood was everywhere in the town. Even though no one knew what happened last night, everyone knew that Xichuan Town was not safe.

Everyone wants to escape from here.

But now, he couldn't get out.

Zhang Ji gave the salute to Zhang Zhishan, and said, "Dad, you go home first, I'll go and have a look!"

"Don't run around, and don't go looking for anything beautiful, just stay at home and wait for me to come back!"

Zhang Ji exhorted, very seriously.

He knew that Aunt Li was not alone in his father Zhang Zhishan's friendship, and the square dancing these past few years was not for nothing.

Zhang Zhishan blushed for a while, and muttered as he walked back, who did he think of me as?

Zhang Ji rushed to the distance, only to find that the road out of the town was covered by thick fog, and the once flat and wide asphalt road had turned into a lush forest.

There are many people around with their burdens on their backs, and they are all at a loss when they come here.

"Let's go straight. I remember the way. If we walk thirty miles straight, we will be able to leave Xichuan Town." A middle-aged man said, everyone responded, and Zhang Ji also thought it made sense.

How do you know if you don't try it out?

However, they made a big circle in the foggy forest, and returned to their original place in a daze.

Tried several times, same thing.

Looking at the mist surging in the forest, Zhang Ji's heart gradually sank, and some people around him collapsed, squatting on the ground and crying loudly with their heads in their hands.

"We really can't get out, what's going on?"

"Damn the fog, where did it come from? How did the experts in Gou Ri predict it!"

"Who can save us! I don't want to be eaten by wild beasts at night!"

Xichuan town was full of animal remains and bloody hairs. Everyone thought that a group of ferocious beasts had attacked the town in the dark.

They were yelling, but the phones in their hands couldn't get through, all kinds of surveillance video and equipment failed, and the Internet couldn't get in.

Finally, the police came, busy and tired of maintaining order, indicating that they were also trying to find a way. The other roads out of the town were also covered by forests, and there was no hope at all, and they could not get outside support.

Xichuan Town, isolated from the rest of the world.

It became a lonely town shrouded in fog.

People have nowhere to go.

"It's getting dark, I have to go back quickly." Zhang Ji stood up, not wanting to waste time here.

Because he thought of another terrible situation, worried that the tragedy of last night would repeat itself, and feared that people would turn into beasts and birds again.

back home.

Father Zhang Zhishan was very obedient, so he really stayed at home and didn't go out.

And a table of dishes has been prepared, including corn ribs, beef stew with potatoes, and cold lamb
"It's all meat dishes? Where do you get so much meat?" Zhang Ji asked curiously, sat down and picked up his chopsticks.

Zhang Zhishan rolled his eyes at him and said, "Are you stupid? You're still asking this. There are so many animal meats on the street. I went out and picked them up. It's a table full of delicious food."

"Hey, I was late, the good meat was picked up by the old ladies next door."

Zhang Ji was about to eat, when he heard this, his eyes widened.

But Zhang Zhishan smiled awkwardly and said: "The ribs are meat from the refrigerator, not picked up. Come, son, try Dad's cooking."

He gave Zhang Ji a piece of ribs, and Zhang Ji ate it.

"Evolution point +1, involved evolution point 651/1000"

Zhang Ji couldn't help being startled when the metallic sound sounded in his head, his eyes sparkled brightly.

Eating the meat in the refrigerator can also increase evolution points?
It seems that it is not necessary to devour ferocious beasts transformed by humans to evolve, and it is also possible to eat domesticated poultry and livestock.

Zhang Ji's thinking suddenly broadened, he turned his head to look at Zhang Ji, and asked eagerly:
"Dad, where is the nearest farm to our house?"

"Farm?. Going west for about ten miles, there is the Niu Niu Le Farm. There are cows, pigs, sheep, everything. It is the largest farm in our Xichuan Town. Didn't I work there before I retired? huh? You forgot."

Zhang Zhishan muttered while eating a piece of beef.

"Niu Niu Le Farm."

Zhang Ji smacked, his eyes gradually brightened, and he looked at his watch, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

He wasn't sure if people would turn into beasts and birds again tonight, but he had to prepare in advance.

"Let's go, Dad, let's go to Niu Niu Le Farm now." Zhang Ji got up and said, pulling Zhang Zhishan out.

Zhang Zhishan said helplessly and regretfully: "There's a table of good food, don't you want to eat?"

"Invite you to a big meal tonight, let you eat enough!"

The two walked down the street.

Sure enough, someone was picking up meat in a basket on the street.

One of the old ladies was the fastest to pick it up, and her movements were quick and agile. She jumped over the fence more than one meter high, and Zhang Ji's eyelids twitched when she saw it.

Zhang Zhishan said: "That's Mrs. Li, she's an old acquaintance with your grandfather. A few days ago, my son married a wife but kicked her out of the house. Now he's moved back to the old house in our community.

"She is a rabbit. She is 75 years old this year. I didn't expect that the more she lives, the more vigorous she will be. It's like rejuvenating."

Zhang Zhishan was amazed, seeing Mrs. Li greeting him, he hastily responded with a smile.

Zhang Ji also politely said hello.

Seeing Mrs. Li's swift movements, he knew in his heart that the rabbit that Mrs. Li, who is a rabbit, turned into last night must not be an ordinary rabbit. The hare must be a very ferocious type of rabbit.

So she survived and evolved, which feeds back to the human body, and at the age of 75, she is living more and more vigorously.

"Human beings have turned into beasts and birds of their respective zodiac signs. For those old people or those who are seriously ill and hopeless, it seems to be a good thing, like a reshuffle of fate."

Such a thought flashed through Zhang Ji's mind, and he thought of his grandfather Zhang Youfu.

Lung cancer is in the late stage, but the old man's family snake has turned into a grass snake, his life is not good!
Around the street, there are many people posting missing person notices, on the telephone poles, on the walls, and on the bus stop signs, they are all posted all over, densely packed in a large area.

"How about we post a few? Maybe your grandpa can see it? And your Aunt Li!"

Zhang Zhishan looked at Zhang Ji expectantly, his eyes were slightly red.

Since he didn't see the body, he didn't think he was dead, so he still had hope.

Zhang Ji sighed in his heart, and said, "Okay, post a few!"

There is a printer at home, Zhang Ji quickly printed a stack, and posted them in the streets and alleys with Zhang Zhishan.

But he knew in his heart that this was just doing his best to obey the destiny and comfort his father. Those people on the missing persons notice on the wall might never come back again.

Just like his grandfather, only a snake head and snake skin remain.

Xichuan Town was in chaos. The gates of banks and supermarkets were full of people, queuing up to withdraw money and hoarding supplies, shouting and cursing.

Xichuan Town could not get out, and food and living materials became the most scarce thing.

Zhang Zhishan said: "Son, don't we stock up on some rice noodles and oil? If it's later, there will be nothing left."

He was a little worried.

Zhang Ji smiled and said: "Can't you pick up meat and eat it on the street? Meat that doesn't cost money doesn't taste good? Do you have to go to the supermarket to buy it?"

Zhang Zhishan came to his senses immediately, and smiled brightly, as expected of my son, but smart, and then worried that he might not be able to pick up meat tomorrow.

Zhang Ji glanced at the mist rolling in the void, and said faintly: "Maybe in the future, I can pick up meat every day, and it's good meat!"

Zhang Zhishan's eyes showed anticipation when he heard the words, and then he sighed again: "It's a good day to eat meat every day, but unfortunately your grandfather can't be found, and your Aunt Li can't see it either!"

Zhang Ji was also sad when he heard the words, and looked at his father Zhang Zhishan beside him, his eyes became firm.

Grandpa Zhang Youfu is gone, father Zhang Zhishan must be protected.

Since Xichuan town can't get out and there is no way to escape, then he will evolve and become stronger with his father.

Since my father is a tiger, let my father be the most ferocious tiger in Xichuan Town!

The father and son passed through the fog and walked quickly to the Niu Niu Le Farm to the west.

the same moment.

In the Xichuan Town People's Hospital, in the underground morgue.

An old man with white hair curled up at the door, hissing and shouting: "Come on, is there anyone? Help, I'm Zhang Youfu!"

With helplessness and bitterness on his face, he was locked in the morgue.

"Why am I so unlucky!"

I remembered that I was still lying on the hospital bed yesterday afternoon, chatting with an old man of the same age who was clinically a snake, but I didn't expect him to appear in the morgue strangely after dawn.

He didn't know how he came to this place.

The old guy who was a snake was also gone. He was locked in the morgue alone, with no phone signal, and there were hundreds of corpses behind him.

One of the corpses seemed to be bitten by some animal. It was dripping with blood and was extremely terrifying. Only a hideous head was left.

Not far away, there is another piece of snake skin, which is five meters in size. It seems to be the snake skin shed by a highly poisonous coral snake.

But can't see where the snake went.

Zhang Youfu trembled with fright, always feeling that the big snake must be hiding somewhere in the morgue and watching him.

"Help me—!"

"Good grandson Zhang Ji, good son Zhang Zhishan, where are you? There are poisonous snakes here."

"Old man, I didn't die from lung cancer. Instead, I was trapped and starved to death here. Why is my life so hard!"

The hoarse shouts echoed in the morgue, and the surrounding fog was surging, falling on his body, silently seeping into the flesh and blood, and disappearing.
