The world enters the fungal world

Chapter 18 The Zhang Family

The crowbar was inserted extremely deep, especially after the lizard deliberately rammed the car, which caused the crowbar to almost completely penetrate it. Now, it won't be easy to pull it out of the lizard's corpse.

Li Yu stepped on the lizard's corpse and exerted force with both hands, but the crowbar didn't budge. He had just exhausted his strength, and his hands and feet were weak, making it difficult to pull it out.

Just as he was thinking of asking Zhou Xigang for help, a new power suddenly surged through his body. It seemed to start from his stomach, and a strange warmth spread in all directions. His almost exhausted strength was immediately restored, and this strange warmth quickly gathered in his hands and feet.

With a forceful stomp of his foot and a pull of his hands, the previously immovable crowbar immediately loosened and was slowly pulled out.

Pulling out the crowbar, Li Yu realized that the sudden strength was the effect of the mushrooms he had just eaten. No wonder "it" told him that these mushrooms were edible.

Li Yu understood that these white jade-like mushrooms could not only quench hunger and thirst, but also increase strength. In this dangerous and strange Jiangcheng, these mushrooms were a treasure.

He put down the crowbar, took off his coat without hesitation, and picked all the remaining white jade mushrooms growing at the rear of the car, putting them into his coat and wrapping them up. There were thirty or forty of them.

"Let's go, let's get out of here first."

Li Yu looked at Lin Muying and Zhou Xigang, who were still in a daze, and gave a low shout.

Lin Muying snapped back to reality and quickly turned around to run towards Qian Lili, who was lying on the side. She had been so frightened by Li Yu's actions that she had forgotten to check on Qian Lili.

"Everyone, get out of here quickly." Zhou Xigang looked at the mess on the ground. The strong smell of blood could attract more parasitic monsters. If they stayed here any longer, it would become very dangerous.

He picked up the fire axe from the ground, and dragging his injured right leg, he limped towards Qian Lili's direction.

Although his right leg had several bloody holes bitten by the parasitic monster's fangs, the bleeding had stopped on its own, and the intense pain was gradually subsiding. At least he could bear the pain for now.

Lin Muying saw Qian Lili lying on the ground convulsing. Although her chest looked bloody and mangled, and even faint white material, which looked like bone, could be seen, she was not dead.

"Lili, get up quickly, we need to leave here, or it will be very dangerous."

Lin Muying grabbed Qian Lili's arm, trying to help her get up.

The appearance of two parasitized dogs followed by an even more terrifying dark green lizard suggests that countless parasitic monsters lurk in Jiangcheng, which has been devoured by mushrooms. Moreover, the intense stench of blood here could very well attract even more terrifying monsters.

Qian Lili was held by one arm by Lin Muying, and she tried with some difficulty to sit up from the ground.

Zhou Xigang also rushed over and took Qian Lili's other arm.

"Get up!"

He called out softly, and with the help of the two men, Qian Lili finally sat up, then struggled to stand up from the ground.

Li Yu held a crowbar in one hand, attached the mushroom-wrapped coat to the crowbar, picked up the fire axe that Lin Muying had dropped earlier when she was injured, and quickly went to Qian Lili and the other two, handing the fire axe to Lin Muying.

Lin Muying's right arm was severely injured, so she could only use her left hand to take the fire axe, release Qian Lili's arm, and step aside.

"Let's go." Li Yu stepped forward, grabbed Qian Lili's arm, and practically dragged her forward.

Although his left leg was injured, he didn't know if it was because the mushrooms he had just eaten were working, but at this moment he felt a faint warm current in his stomach flowing towards the injured part of his left leg, the wound stopped bleeding automatically, and the original severe pain turned into a faint warm sensation.

The four of them now share a consensus: they want to leave this place as soon as possible.

"Come on, let's go this way." Zhou Xigang seemed to be very familiar with this area. He took Qian Lili's other arm and, together with Li Yu, almost half-supported and half-dragged Qian Lili into the alleyway next to the supermarket.

Lin Muying followed closely behind the three with a fire axe in hand, occasionally turning back to look behind them.

Behind them, the mushrooms on the ground were trampled into a muddy mess, and on these muddy mushrooms lay three parasitic monsters, now dead and corpses, but the stench of blood lingered for a while. No one knew if there were more parasitic monsters lurking around, and the risk of staying here any longer was clearly increasing.

The four of them walked along the alley for about ten meters and then they saw a six-story residential building behind the supermarket. At this moment, there were some cracks on the surface of the building, and a large number of mushrooms of different sizes were growing in the cracks.

Li Yu looked up and noticed that several giant mushrooms, each more than half a person tall, were growing on the roof of the residential building. These giant mushrooms had a lot of vine-like mycelium hanging down the wall, which was very eye-catching.

Having been attacked repeatedly before, Li Yu and the others were very vigilant. While supporting Qian Lili, he kept observing the surroundings to prevent any more parasitic monsters from suddenly rushing out to attack.

Zhou Xigang led the three of them to the residential building quickly. The six-story building had four units. Zhou Xigang led them through the second unit and up the stairs.

Seeing Zhou Xigang's familiarity with the place, Li Yu's heart skipped a beat: "You live here?"

Zhou Xigang did not deny it, saying, "That's right, I live on the fourth floor of this second unit. I didn't expect that the building is not too badly damaged. I wonder what my home looks like now."

There was a hint of regret in his voice.

"No wonder... you bought things at that supermarket." Suddenly, Qian Lili spoke, a little out of breath.

Of the four, she was the most seriously injured. A large chunk of flesh was torn off her chest by the parasitic dog. At first glance, the wound looked terrible, but it was not fatal.

Now that the bleeding from the wound has stopped and the pain has subsided, Qian Lili has regained some of her energy.

To Li Yu's right eye, her wound was covered with numerous faint points of light. These points of light seemed to have the special effect of stopping bleeding and shrinking wounds. As long as it was not a fatal wound, this kind of superficial injury should not take their lives.

"I didn't expect you to be so clever this time." Zhou Xigang turned around and glanced at Qian Lili.

The four of them continued up the stairs. On each floor of this two-unit building, there was a house on the left and right. The security doors were all tightly closed. Some of the security doors had marks from being hit by a huge force, and one of the security doors was twisted and deformed so badly that the corners were sticking up.

Soon they reached the fourth floor, where Li Yu discovered two households. The security door on the right was tightly closed, and although it had a lot of mold and rust on the surface, it was relatively well-preserved. The security door on the left showed signs of being hit by a huge force, with a corner slightly deformed and a crack exposed.

"This is my house on the right, but I don't know if the key I have with me now will still be able to open it."

As Zhou Xigang spoke, he took out the key he carried with him. Although he knew it was probably useless, he still tried to give it a shot.

The key was inserted, but it wouldn't budge.

He shook his head, knowing that the keyhole of the security door had long been rusted shut and the key could not be opened, so he could no longer enter his former home.
