Five Hundred and Sixty-Nine, Never Come Back

According to everyone's thinking, Zhou will definitely be able to solve the scourge of the experimental subject within a week. Since the experimental subject failed to capture the city at the beginning, after Zhou's reaction, there is no need to take the experimental subject seriously. .

But the reality doesn't seem to be like this. It has been more than a week since the day when the experimental body first started attacking the city, and there is no sign of reinforcements at the No. 74 barrier.

When Li Ran and the others first started eating, they didn't care about controlling the amount of food. Everyone ate as usual, so that the food they bought before quickly bottomed out.

Zhou Yingxue also said a few words, but everyone felt that they would get out of trouble soon, and they would not be able to leave with the food at that time, so they might as well finish eating.

Therefore, Zhou Yingxue didn't say anything more, anyway, she would eat potatoes with the master, and the life and death of this group of people had nothing to do with her.

Up to now, Li Ran and the others saw no hope of being saved, and began to worry about food again, but everyone remembered Zhou Yingxue's persuasion and they didn't listen.

He was also embarrassed to ask Zhou Yingxue to help him figure out a solution, but Ren Xiaosu was lukewarm and didn't care about them at all, and he didn't even bother to talk to them.

Of course, this is not yet the time to be hungry. If they are really hungry, these people are probably willing to eat bark, let alone begging for help.

It's just that it's hard to say whether there is any bark on the street at that time.

Anyway, Ren Xiaosu didn't panic at all. He went out every day to see how the city was defending, whether there were any experimental subjects attacking him, and ignored the rest.

The food in his storage space is at least enough for him and Zhou Yingxue to last for another three months, and there are quite a variety of food. There are only three wild boars left in the family that were taken away in one pot before.

Two days later, Li Ran and others always felt that they could smell the faint smell of meat in the hotel, but when they searched for the smell, they couldn't find anything. Everyone thought that they might be hallucinating from hunger.

Until they saw the gloss on Zhou Yingxue's lips...

Zhou Yingxue didn't have the consciousness to steal it at all, anyway, the pork was given by the master, and she didn't steal or snatch it, and she didn't have the obligation to share it with others, right?

On the same day, an extremely strange thing happened.

There were soldiers crouching behind the defensive bunker above the barrier, and they saw an experimental subject crawling over quickly, with something hanging from its mouth.

Everyone has some doubts,

Why did an experimental subject come here to surrender? Could it be that internal strife has also arisen within the experimental body?

The experimental subject came under the barrier, threw away what was in its mouth, turned and left, and re-entered the dark forest.

The defenders on the top of the city looked at each other, quickly put a person down in a hanging basket, and picked up what the experimental subject had thrown away, it was a piece of white cloth.

After Zhou Xingwen heard about this, he ran up the city wall. He took the white cloth from the soldier's hand, with a few words written in blood on it: Negotiation, come alone.

Suddenly, Zhou Xingwen's scalp was numb, and the experimental subject could write their own words, and even used words like negotiation.

Human beings negotiate with experimental subjects? How to talk about it?

Lao Li and Qin Sheng rushed over, and the people from Tinder Company, who were originally at the head of the city, explained to them what happened, and Lao Li suddenly said: "I'll go!"

Qin Sheng turned his head to look at Lao Li: "Teacher, you can't go, the experimental subjects in the woods are probably ten thousand smaller."

"Okay," Lao Li shook the white cloth and said with a smile: "Someone has to go and see what the experimental subject is up to. I have no children, no partner, no worries, and my only apprentice has also left the teacher. It's up to me to go."

None of the officers of Zhou's army next to him said anything. They definitely didn't want to go. They admired Lao Li for being willing to stand up.

And seeing the knight talking and laughing happily, he didn't seem so scared.

Old Li's smile gradually faded: "And this experimental subject is obviously controlled by an intelligent life behind it. If the other party negotiates with me and gets close enough to let me complete the beheading, then the danger of this experimental subject can probably be resolved."

As for after the beheading, Lao Li would definitely be besieged to death by the experimental subjects. No matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to fight so many experimental subjects.

But he didn't say anything about these afterwords. Since he went, he had to have the determination to die first.

Qin Sheng wanted to dissuade something, but Lao Li stopped him before he could say anything, he smiled and said, "This is very exciting, isn't it?"

...

In the afternoon, Lao Li went down directly with a rope, and walked slowly towards the forest alone.

Just when he entered the forest, he found that there were experimental subjects moving back and forth vaguely around him, surrounding him in a circle.

The experimental subject didn't attack Lao Li, but gave him a way to go deep into the forest.

Old Li stepped on soft leaves. After autumn, the leaves fell into the soil and turned into dust. His old Li's results would not be much different from the fallen leaves. It was just a matter of time.

Thinking of this, Lao Li strode forward, ignoring the experimental subject beside him as nothing.

After walking about two kilometers, Lao Li saw an experimental subject in front of him sitting by the bonfire, holding a branch in his gray palm, and a sparrow stuck on the branch.

Old Li stood still, and he looked around silently, wanting to see if there was a chance to kill the other party, but he had to listen to what the other party wanted to talk about before doing it.

But how to talk about it? Do both parties write?

Just as Old Li was thinking wildly, the experimental subject suddenly laughed hoarsely: "I saw you, you were on the mountain that evening, and there was a young boy beside you at that time, why didn't you see him coming?"

Lao Li was amazed, the other party could still talk!

The experimental subject is a human mutation, it is normal to be able to speak human language, but Lao Li thinks it is very abnormal!

The voice of the experimental subject was extremely hoarse, as if two pieces of gauze were rubbing against each other: "Don't be too surprised, I am also human, we became like this for the purpose of curing diseases, but some people are as lucky as me and can gradually Restoring sanity, some people unfortunately become monsters."

Lao Li frowned and didn't speak, because the amount of information in the other party's words was really too much.

The experimental subject glanced at him, shook the sparrow in his hand and said with a smile: "This is for you to eat. I used to like to eat roasted meat, but now I prefer flesh and blood, and I even like to eat it occasionally. Order rotten food for a change, just stand there, and you will die here if you take a step closer, don’t try to plot against me, you can’t do it yet.”

With that said, the experimental subject threw the sparrow to Lao Li.

Lao Li didn't mind taking the sparrow. He raised his hand to his mouth and tore off a piece of meat. While chewing, he asked, "Isn't it good to be a human? The meat tastes best when it's roasted."

"That's exactly why I came here for you," the test subject said hoarsely, "You help me find someone, and if I find someone, I'll retreat to the forest, or I can go further south and never come back."
