Chen Qing heard a series of loud noises at home, like an earthquake. The sky shook and the earth shook. He didn't know what was going on. Could it be that there was an earthquake in this city?
My first reaction was to run outside.
However, it vibrated three times quickly and then stopped. Chen Qing immediately calmed down and after a while, nothing happened.
I took out my phone and immediately browsed the local forum. Within a few minutes, I saw someone saying that it felt like an earthquake just now. I looked at other forums and all said it felt like an earthquake.
No, Chen Qing's heart sank, how could there be an earthquake across the country!
It was so abnormal. I kept following the forum replies and found that something had finally happened.
There are posts about unknown beasts attacking humans. There are more and more posts like this, and there are even many short videos.
It's just that the photo was too blurry to see clearly, but you can probably see unknown beasts bigger than tigers attacking humans, and there are quite a few of them.
After watching for a while, Chen Qing's originally confused mind slowly calmed down. She walked to the window, opened the curtains, and saw people gathering outside and discussing loudly.
It had been more than an hour since the earthquake-like rumble was heard, and many people knew something had happened.
Chen Qing lived on the fifth floor. He looked around from a high place and saw that there was nothing unusual happening around him yet. He wondered if those beasts would appear in this city.
Chen Qing picked up the phone again, but she didn't know what was going on with her phone at this time, and the network was extremely poor.
Chen Qing thought to herself what to do if a beast appeared, so she took a look in the room to see what self-defense weapons and equipment she could find.
Finally, I saw a steel pipe as tall as a person in the utility room, but both ends were flat and could not pierce objects.
Chen Qing found the tool box again, took a small saw from the box, and held one end of the steel pipe diagonally.
After playing for a while, it was finally secured, and one end of the steel pipe looked very sharp. Chen Qing looked at it and tried it, and when he forked it hard, a piece of wood was pierced.
Just then I heard a few shouts outside
"There is a monster..."
"Run quickly."
Hearing this, Chen Qing knew that those beasts were still coming, so she ran to the window and looked into the distance. The men and women had already started to get confused.
I vaguely saw two beasts chasing a group of people. The one running at the back was a woman wearing high heels. The other one was unsteady and fell to the ground.
A beast pounced on her, and there was only a scream and struggle, and then it stopped moving. The unknown beast was already chewing on her body.
When Chen Qing saw this, her heart trembled. She was really dead. She was eaten like this.
what to do!
I wanted to call the police, but the number was no longer accessible. I thought everything was in chaos, so I had to rely on myself.
Chen Qing thought about her own life, three years after graduating from college.
I don't fit in in the big city. Although I have made a lot of money, I am not happy. I have returned to my hometown, a small city, and I still haven't made a name for myself. My parents were involved in a car accident two years ago and passed away.
I am the only child in the family. I live in an old house left by my parents, and I don’t know when I will be able to make a difference.
I have never felt that I am stupider than others, but I have been stubborn since I was a child and have been unwilling to grovel, flatter others, and not please my leaders.
I firmly believe that everyone will have a chance to succeed in life, and I am no exception. I never expected that I would not have such an opportunity in life.
Everything has changed now. I don't know how long I have left to live, so I can't sit still and wait for death no matter what.
Thinking of this, Chen Qing found the dry food in the room and ate it quickly.
There wasn't much food at home, so I had to think of a way. After eating, I took the steel pipe I had secured and stabbed it hard twice. I felt a little safer.
At this time, someone was shouting again downstairs
"do not come."
"Go away."
"Help, help me, I don't want to die."
"Ahhhhh!"
Next, I heard only a series of "uh-uh-uh" beastly roars, and then there was no sound.
Chen Qing knew that there were beasts attacking people downstairs, and she didn't know if they would come up later.
It felt like time passed so slowly. I don’t know how long it had passed, but there was some strange noise at the stairs outside, and it kept getting closer.
My heartbeat was also accelerating, and the long steel pipe in my hand was starting to sweat.
The strange noise stopped. Chen Qing didn't know if the beast was coming, but she knew it was definitely not far from her.
He walked gently to the door and looked out through the small hole in the door. There was nothing. Just when he was about to look away, a beast that looked like a wild boar walked up.
I saw a sharp and fierce light leaking from its eyes, its steps were steady and powerful, and its body seemed to be covered with scales.
We were getting closer and closer to the door, as if we were eye to eye with it.
Chen Qing felt that her hand was a little numb while maintaining the same position. She wanted to take it back to her chest, but accidentally let the long steel pipe scrape the wall.
"Squeak"
A sharp sound was particularly harsh in this otherwise solid air space.
not good!
Chen Qing thought to herself, "Oops."
Sure enough, the wild boar-like beast stopped, looked at the door, and slammed into it.
"bump"
There was a violent impact, and Chen Qing was so frightened that he took two steps back.
At this time, my mind calmed down. It had been discovered, and it was useless to worry. Although the door was made of iron, it was not too thick. After so many years, the quality has yet to be verified.
What should I do? Will the beast howl like banging the door attract other beasts?
No matter how hard it is, the dead man and the bird will face the sky, and he will not die for eternity. Looking at the steel pipe spear in his hand, Chen Qing made up his mind. He quickly opened the door with one hand, then stepped back two meters, and the beast's head was about to come in.
It had a ferocious and terrifying face, and it opened its mouth wide and was about to bite it.
It was too late, then it was too late. Chen Qing held the steel pipe in his hand and stabbed hard, thinking that it must be stabbed in the mouth.
It's a pity that the thorn was misplaced and hit his forehead. Thanks to Chen Qing's constant exercise, he still has some strength for his height of 1.8 meters.
This stab still slowed down the beast's speed. Once there was a pause, the beast immediately began to thrust forward.
Life and death were at stake. Chen Qing was very clear-headed and her hands were not slow. She immediately slid her hand back on the steel pipe, pulled it back, and stabbed forward crazily again.
Fortunately, the ferocious beast also opened its mouth to howl, and stabbed it right in the heart of the mouth.
Seeing this, Chen Qing used all her strength and rushed forward with the steel pipe in her hand. The ferocious beast was also struggling desperately, but it didn't know that this was accelerating its death.
During its struggle, the steel pipe had penetrated halfway, and large mouthfuls of dirty blood flowed out. Chen Qing still held on to the steel pipe until its struggle slowly disappeared.
Looking at the motionless beast, the fear in Chen Qing's heart slowly disappeared and she let go of the steel pipe.
She walked to the door and immediately closed it. Looking at the animal corpse on the ground, Chen Qing dragged it to the middle of the room and pulled out the steel pipe.
It was covered with blood. Listening to the roar of the beast outside, Chen Qing looked at the beast's corpse in trance.
I don’t know why, but I have some other thoughts in my mind. How did these beasts appear and where did they come from? This is obviously not a native species.
Is it from another world?
How is it different from the beasts in this world? Is this meat edible?
Thinking of this, Chen Qing had a ridiculous idea in her mind, whether this beast had a beast core or something like that.
After all, I have read a lot of various books since I was a child. Everything is possible. Thinking of this, I went to the kitchen and grabbed the sharpest knife.
The corpse of this beast was found. The corpse of this beast was extremely compact and had a pungent smell. I didn't know if it could be eaten.
Of course, Chen Qing didn't dare to eat it rashly, and it wasn't difficult to disembowel it. When Chen Qing was a child, it was common for others to kill pigs and then decompose their bodies.
Enduring the nausea and discomfort, she slowly opened it with a knife. When she saw its heart, Chen Qing's eyes lit up.
There was a round white bead next to the heart, and I cut it off out of suppressed excitement.
I took it in my hand and looked at it carefully. I don't know what it is used for and what effect it has.
After everything was cleaned, Chen Qing looked at the round beads on the table. She had a hunch that this thing must not be simple, but she just didn't know how to use it.
Should I swallow it? No, it's too hard, and I don't know if it's harmful. I held it in my hand and played with it for a while, but I felt something shaking inside, which wasn't too real.
Chen Qing shook the beads around vigorously and felt that there was liquid inside.
Putting down the beads and hearing the occasional roar of beasts outside, Chen Qing knew that it would be a narrow escape if she went out now, and she didn't know where to go to be safe now.
But there is only so much food at home, and safety cannot be guaranteed in this house.
Chen Qing held a knife in her hand and decided to chop at the bead. She saw a small crack in the bead and the liquid inside was extremely solid.
I moved it away forcefully. The liquid looked like jelly and had a different aroma. I don't know why, but looking at the solidified liquid made me feel very attractive.
It's like a biological instinct that wants to possess and eat it.
Staring at the liquid for a long time, Chen Qing felt mixed emotions in her heart. Originally, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to get ahead in this society.
Nowadays, the world is undergoing great changes, and I am so insignificant that sometimes I have to take a gamble.
Even if there is a lot of fog ahead, as long as you are unwilling to be ordinary, unwilling to succumb to others, and unwilling to look at people's faces at the bottom, you must find a way to seize the opportunity.
Maybe this was an opportunity. Looking at the thing in his hand, Chen Qing made up his mind to use himself as the experiment. He picked it up with his right hand and put the jelly-like thing into his mouth. He swallowed it and felt that it had slipped in.
