summer rot

Initially, it was just a piece of information.

Traveling through the vast universe, it departs from the civilization that gave birth to it, passes through countless dead, newly born, and thriving galaxies, and finally falls to the earth.Like a small dandelion, only about 2 trillion in size.

It took two months to pass through the atmosphere.

It took 50 days to land.

Until a wave turned over and dragged it into the ocean, the first fish swallowed it, changing its information.It has learned to devour and forge a "meat" body for itself.

I don't know how long it has been ups and downs, and it was beaten on the reef by the waves again, picked up by humans as some kind of edible seafood, looked left and right, and finally threw it on the road.

It crawled under the wheels, was bitten by mice, and was carried by ants. In the process of being hurt, it changed several times and learned to make "bones" for itself. It swallowed more and grew bigger, and finally climbed to a level. in a safe place.

Warm and clean, it subconsciously thought that this was its permanent living place.

"What the hell is this thing?"

A group of junior high school students squatted at the school gate, kicking a lump of rotten flesh in the corner.

"Uh, it's disgusting, I'm going to vomit - this is the garbage that someone spit out, right? Did you do it?" A boy bumped into the person next to him, and was pushed back with a smile, cursing a few words.

The boy who discovered it first shouted: "Fart, it's alive!"

He stood up, stretched out his foot, pointed at the unknown thing, said "Look at it", stomped his foot hard, then quickly drew it back, and took two steps back.

Sure enough, the lump of meat slowly moved a little because of this.It didn't make a sound, and it didn't fight back because of it, as if it didn't know why it was treated like this, thinking that it would be safe by moving its place.

A group of junior high school students exclaimed "I rely on" one after another, and backed away involuntarily.

"Is this Tai Sui?" One person said, "I heard that Tai Sui seems to be a disgusting lump of meat."

"Which Tai Sui?"

"The one that broke ground on the head."

"Wow——then I'm dead?" The boy who stomped his feet laughed loudly: "Why, can it eat me?"

Emboldened by the escape of this unknown creature, he took a few steps forward, raised the foot just now, and stepped on it again: "Eat me? Damn, I laughed so hard."

The meatball tightened a little.

"It's disgusting, don't step on it."

"What's wrong? I'm not afraid of him!" The boy stomped his foot, and said the last few words proudly and loudly: "It will bite me to death if it has the ability!"

As if responding to this sentence, it finally felt disturbed.Just like it devoured the creatures that tried to devour it a few times before, it stretched out its body, trying to wrap the other party up.Once it decided to fight back, it was very fast, and before the boy could withdraw his foot, it had already grabbed the opponent's foot.

Too bad it's so small.

It tried to digest what was in its body, but after chewing it a few times, it found that this thing was different—it seemed that it was not a gene that its body needed, but something that needed to be excreted, like garbage.

But how can garbage actively attack it?

"Damn! Someone help me!" The boy kicked his feet frantically, trying to get the things off the shoes.But it was so tight that it couldn't be kicked off.

The people around were also frightened by the accident, and no one dared to step forward.

"You pull him down!"

"Fuck you and try it!" The boy kicked the wall, trying to use the wall to scrape off the things on his feet.

The first few strokes of this method were still useful, and a long bloodstain was wiped out on the wall and floor, which was shocking to watch.However, after the fourth or fifth blow, the lump seemed to have evolved, the outer layer became slippery and soft, and it no longer scratched at all.

"Damn." He finally couldn't help it anymore, raised his hand, and slammed the things off the shoes.

It tasted.

It fell to the ground and kept reminiscing about the last biological flesh it touched, analyzing the most primitive two megabytes of information in its body, telling it—this is the strongest gene on this planet.

That's what it came to this planet for.

The purpose of leaving the barren home planet that cannot continue to support it is to achieve better development on other planets and plunder more resources.

"You're bleeding!" The boy next to him hurried up and looked at his companion's right hand: "Go to the school doctor! This thing is so dirty, you're going to get sick!"

The boy shook his hand and said forcefully, "It doesn't hurt! It wasn't caused by it at all. This is a wound I had a long time ago, okay—it just burst."

He became furious, turned his head and left, and the boys behind caught up: "Are you all right?"

"fine!"

A group of junior high school students left in a row, and it swayed and grew up, feeling that it seemed to be much "smarter".

It realized that it should take the initiative to eat something.

Crawling along the wall, it entered a warmer place filled with the aroma of food.It first got into a small dark barrel and tasted some strange genes—several kinds of creatures were mixed together, and a lot of indistinguishable "garbage" was deliberately added.

It chewed a few mouthfuls, spit it out, and wanted to eat the creature just now.

But the creature was so big that it would be kicked, thrown, opened if it got close.

"Is there any problem with food safety in your store?" A customer looked at the motionless dead meat on the ground and frowned: "How can you invite this kind of thing?"

"No problem, no problem guaranteed!" The waiter picked it up with a stick and threw it outside along the window.

It didn't resist.

Next, it tried countless times, with success, but with even more failures.It found that the creature was covered with a thick layer of garbage, was too big, and was very aggressive.It found that it seemed to be constantly devouring and growing, and seemed to be able to roughly understand the sound made by this creature.

Snapped.

It was thrown away again.

"What are you throwing?"

At this time, a childish voice suddenly inserted into the laughter.

A few children turned around and found a newcomer, carrying a schoolbag, obedient and fair, not like the type who could fight with them, and asked, "Who are you?"

The other party replied politely, "My name is Zhou Xiangxing."

Zhou Xiangxing.

Oh—they all turned around, and although they hadn't seen each other before, there was only one "Zhou Xiangxing" in this community, and that was the "other people's child" that their parents always mentioned.

Seeing that no one paid him any attention, Zhou Xiangxing asked again: "What are you throwing?"

One of the tallest children replied, "Throw mud."

He lifted the lump of meat and threw it at the tree again, seeing it stuck to it, leaving a trail of blood, rubbing his gloves, and glanced to the side: "You don't go home to study, what are you doing here?"

"Wow, it's so high!" A group of children next to it exclaimed. They ran over and planned to peel it off: "Who is next?"

Zhou Xiangxing glanced over there and said, "It's bleeding."

"Don't you think I threw it high, and you care that it is bleeding?!" The tallest child said angrily, "What does it have to do with you? Since you don't play with us, what do you care about us?"

"Yeah, go home and learn your lessons!" The kid who ran back complained, "It's blocking my place!"

Zhou Xiangxing then moved to the side, taking this opportunity, he saw the lump of flesh held in the other's glove—it was alive, and although it had been played with for so long, it was still wriggling, trying to break free from this restraint. its uncomfortable situation.The book says that human beings must learn to respect life.But now, this unknown creature was being tortured in front of him, which made him feel very pitiful.

"Have your parents allowed you to play this?" he said.

"You're so boring! You just won the award, and now you want to show us how obedient you are?" The tallest boy pushed him away: "We don't want to play with obedient people."

Zhou Xiangxing frowned: "I didn't show off."

"Then go away!"

Zhou Xiangxing didn't leave.He heard a "snap", and the unknown creature was thrown on the tree again. Somehow they got angry, and they tried harder.

"I'm going to tell my parents."

As soon as he said this, he knew that he was going to be hated again.

Sure enough, the children around immediately looked at him with the eyes of a traitor, complained loudly, saying "just play away from you!", and walked to other places one after another.

Zhou Xiangxing wanted to step forward and tell them that they didn't need to leave here, as long as they let the little creature go.

"Don't get close."

He kept walking, and without looking around, he knew that no one was talking.

"Don't mind your own business."

This is the voice in his heart.

"Xiang Xing, mom wants you to take care of yourself. I'm very tired. Can you let me rest for a while?"

Zhou Xiangxing stopped in his tracks.

He unconsciously bent his fingers and pinched the seam of his trousers tightly.He knew that his mother was waiting for him at home. If he told his mother that he did not come home immediately after school, he would be beaten.

"Kill it, so as not to harm anyone!"

But he heard the tallest child speaking very loudly just now, as if it was specially for him.

Zhou Xiangxing looked over, and sure enough, he happened to meet the other person's eyes.

He endured it, but in the end he couldn't hold it back and walked forward.Facing this sixth-grade brother, he tried hard not to be stage fright, imagining that he was speaking under the national flag, and all the people listening to his speech were Chinese cabbage.He said, "Don't do that, I'm going to tell your dad."

"Do you still know who I am?" The other party looked at him without making a move.

Zhou Xiangxing swallowed: "I know, you are Dong Kun from Class [-], Grade [-]... brother."

"I know you too." Dong Kun pointed at him: "You are Zhou Xiangxing from the 18th floor, and I can also tell your mother that you are nosy."

Zhou Xiangxing pursed his lips and stood there without responding.

Maybe it was because he had a good attitude, or maybe he was determined enough, in short, under the confrontation, Dong Kun did not continue to make things difficult for him.After being threatened by Zhou Xiangxing, they threw away the dirty toy and left.

going to be beaten.

Zhou Xiangxing looked at the soft little thing on the ground, squatted down, hesitated again and again, and finally moved it with his fingers.

At this time, it felt the very delicious gene again.

"What are you?" Zhou Xiangxing whispered.

The other party would not answer him, but wrapped his fingers.It's soft and sticky, a bit like the sun-melted, low-quality snot glue sold in the small shop at the door.He paused for a moment, but didn't shake it off, thinking that he made a mistake just because of it, and felt annoyed for a while.

He is not afraid of it.

On the contrary, it seems that it has been suppressed for too long, and some kind of broken cans and broken emotions are on it.

Zhou Xiangxing stood up with the sticky little thing, he hesitated again and again, and finally said: "How about I take you home."

Can't be seen by Mom, can't be seen by anyone else, but—

"If you stay here, they will definitely come to you tomorrow." He shook his head, pulled off the small thing the size of his palm, and poked it: "Can you pack it together? My schoolbag doesn't have so much room for you .”

After finishing speaking, he laughed himself, actually wanting to talk to a strange creature.

However, the next moment, the little thing on the palm moved slowly.

It keeps shrinking, shrinking again, and finally becomes a small ball.The skin is rough, like some kind of red fruit.

Zhou Xiangxing lifted it up and wowed: "You look like a lychee!"
