Chapter 139 Hunger
"What is your world like? Are there only six satellite islands like Tranquility around the main city's big island in the whole world? Haven't the farther places been explored?" Liu Qian asked Zhou Mingliang again. , He has a lot of questions about this world, and he doesn't usually have the opportunity to understand it, but now is a good opportunity to understand it thoroughly.
"No, we are a very big country, and there are many other countries on the vast ocean, but after the catastrophe, communication, transportation, etc. were all interrupted. We stayed in Tranquility City, and we didn't even know where the main city was. How is the situation in Hope City, the provincial capital, let alone other provinces, or even other countries that are very far away from us." Zhou Mingliang answered Liu Gan.
"Is most of the surface of this planet where you are located is ocean? How many countries are there?" Liu Gan asked again.
"Well, more than 95% of it is sea surface, with only a small amount of land. A total of more than 100 countries have been established, separated by the ocean. Our Huaxia country is relatively large among them, and there are some small countries. Even smaller than Tranquility City." Zhou Mingliang continued.
"Do all the people on your planet speak the same language as us?" Liu Gan asked after thinking for a while.
"There are also people who speak other languages! Those white people with blond hair and blue eyes and black people who are like briquettes all speak a different language from us. Even some people around us who have the same skin color as us speak a different language from us." Zhou Mingliang shook his head.
After hearing what Zhou Mingliang said, most of the players had strange expressions on their faces. This world seemed to have many similarities with the real world they lived in, but it also had many differences.
After Liu Gan said nothing, the communication between the players and the survivors became more heated. The survivors also asked the players about the situation in the world where the players lived. They even discussed the games they played, the novels they read, The songs they sang, as well as football games and celebrities, they talked about almost everything. From these exchanges, it can be seen that the two worlds are indeed very different. But there are also many similarities.
Just like music, many songs that are familiar in the real world. Here too, but the people who write the songs are not the same as the people who sing them.
"There are more than a hundred survivors in your hospital. Where did they find food these days?" Han Guangming's sudden question made several survivors quiet down.
"Yeah, in the next few days, we didn't see you coming out much?" Wang Decheng also looked at the survivors with some strangeness.
Survivors from the hospital attacked the supermarket camp, partly because Deng Hu had kidnapped the women in the hospital camp. On the other hand, because there is no food, I want to snatch some food from the supermarket city and go back.
They also caught a player during this period, but they didn't exchange that player for the woman caught by Deng Hu, but offered to Deng Hu to exchange for a bag of 50 catties of rice, but Deng Hu ignored it at all. He led someone to attack the exchange venue, causing the player's throat to be slit on the spot.
During the previous evacuation, many old, weak, sick and disabled came out of the hospital. Seeing that the total number is close to a hundred, it seems that after the loss of order in the hospital, the horror of cannibalism has not occurred, right?
"If we tell you that we have eaten the flesh of zombies in addition to bark and grass roots these days. Do you believe it?" After a moment of silence, Hu Jun among the young men and women spoke back to Han Guangming and Wang Decheng .
"Eat zombie meat!?" After hearing Hu Jun's answer, the players showed extremely shocked expressions on their faces, and some players with poor endurance even had the urge to vomit.
"There is a biochemical expert in our hospital. He is very knowledgeable. The supermarket was occupied by you. After we couldn't find food nearby, he found a room to secretly study the composition of zombie meat because of hunger..."
"According to his research, the meat of zombies is not carrion in the traditional sense, but some kind of poisonous meat modified by viruses. The egg whites in it have not been completely denatured. If you eat it raw, it will definitely not work, and there is no doubt that it will be infected with the virus. , but the high temperature of cooking can kill the virus in the meat..."
"Just high-temperature treatment can only kill the virus in the meat, but can't remove the toxins produced by the virus inside. Those toxins are very deadly, and it may be fatal after eating a few pieces. So the biochemical expert used his professional knowledge to take Drug soaking, extraction, distillation and other methods separated most of the toxins inside from the meat, and then..." Hu Jun didn't go any further when he said this.
In order to survive, in order to keep the last bottom line of human beings, and prevent the phenomenon of cannibalism due to extreme hunger, this is the only way to do it.
"What's the taste of the zombie meat you've processed?" A player with a strong taste asked Hu Jun.
"It's unpalatable, with a strong smell of medicine, but I have no choice when I'm extremely hungry. Also, the process of processing zombie meat is not that simple. There are more than a hundred people in the hospital camp, so... most of them The processed zombie meat was only supplied to some very important people, and the rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled only received a small amount of supply, as long as they were not starved to death..." Hu Jun's voice slowly dropped.
The players didn't say anything anymore. Under the pressure of cruel reality, people sometimes have to risk everything in order to survive.
Speaking of this matter, the survivors still hated the players very much. There was so much food in the supermarket that the players hadn't finished eating until they encountered a wave of corpses and evacuated. But the hundreds of people they stayed in the hospital were starving, and even ventured beyond the psychological bottom line to try to eat zombie meat.
Hu Jun said some things, and some things he didn't say... For example, during the trial production of safe meat, the expert found some old, weak, sick and disabled, and fed them the meat without explaining the situation to them. The previous experiment At least seven or eight people were killed by the subject.
That's a sad story.
After everyone was silent for a while, Zhou Mingliang brought up another topic, which diverted everyone's attention, so the others also deliberately changed the topic, and no one mentioned any more about zombie meat.
While the players and the survivors were chatting in the concave hole of the steel beam, the steel beam did not continue to tilt. Apart from the previous cracks on the bridge deck, there were no new cracks or fractures and collapses. There is no looseness between the cable and the bridge deck.
The burning cars on the bridge were also slowly extinguished. The thousand or so zombies who rushed onto the bridge were all burned to death or left on their own. Anyway, the road to the other side had been cleared. (to be continued ~^~)
