Chapter 108: Setting Out Again
The enhanced version of the hand grenade worked better than Chen Mu had imagined, almost too well to the point of risking injuring a thousand enemies while harming oneself by eight hundred.
He adjusted the size and quantity of the steel balls and had Dong Junwei make a batch of grenades with moderate power to control the blast radius.
Of course, the best approach was still to find cover after throwing the grenades.
It was like lying down after throwing a hand grenade.
After completing the experiment, Wei Dalei dragged the half-dead caterpillar and asked, "What should we do with this? If we don't throw it away, it will attract ants."
"Don't waste it. Before throwing it away, cut off some meat first. It will improve our lunch," Chen Mu replied.
"Eat this... caterpillar?" Some people were starting to feel uncomfortable.
On the other hand, Tang Jing, as a girl, didn't seem to be afraid at all and said, "This is the caterpillar of the Cabbage White Butterfly, also known as the Cabbage Caterpillar. They like to attach themselves to various leaves, and the flesh of this insect should be quite good. According to Uncle Bei, its protein content is several times that of beef. Besides, if you've ever eaten stir-fried vegetables, you've probably consumed a few of these caterpillars."
Instead of reassuring everyone, her words made them even more uncomfortable.
Tang Jing decided to go all out with her persuasion, "Actually, these things are nothing. Based on probability statistics, everyone will swallow a few live cockroaches and countless mosquitoes during their lifetime."
"Why?" Zhao Xiaoyan almost jumped up.
"Because sometimes when people are asleep, their mouths unintentionally open, and if a cockroach happens to crawl near your mouth, you might subconsciously chew it and swallow it. Sometimes you wake up with a strange taste in your mouth, and it could be due to this reason."
"Ugh..."
Before Tang Jing could finish her words, several people couldn't take it anymore.
Even Chen Mu felt queasy.
"Enough, Tang Jing."
"I suddenly feel that eating caterpillar meat is not so bad."
"Yeah, cut the meat into strips, grill it on a metal plate. After all, you can't tell it's a caterpillar, just treat it as pork."
"Now that you mention it, it actually sounds not bad."
"..."
Perhaps because they had something even more disgusting to compare it with, everyone suddenly found the idea of eating caterpillars relatively acceptable.
Chen Mu glanced at Tang Jing and saw that she happened to be looking his way too, so he gave her a thumbs-up.
The freshly killed caterpillar still had tender meat.
Chen Mu quickly cut several pieces of intact flesh from its back and then had Wei Dalei dispose of the carcass.
The next morning.
The five of them were ready to set off.
Dong Junwei, representing the people staying behind, expressed their blessings to them and held a simple farewell ceremony.
Chen Mu thought for a moment and whispered to Dong Junwei, "If we don't come back after five days, you and Tang Jing should consider the livelihood of the remaining people."
This statement carried a sense of pessimism.
But it was also very practical, as there were not only various dangers in the natural world but also potential threats from the people at One Middle School who had enough power to eliminate them multiple times over.
One must always prepare for the worst.
Dong Junwei originally wanted to say some comforting words, but in the end, she sighed and said, "I know."
Afterward, the gate was opened.
Wei Dalei pushed the cart at the front, and the others followed closely behind.
Taking advantage of the absence of the yellow cat, the five of them quickened their pace as they left.
The yellow cat was particularly gentle with Du Jiajia, but who knew how it would treat the others? If they were clawed by their own guard animal even before leaving, it would be quite embarrassing.
Behind them, the heavy gate was slowly closed.
Chen Mu looked at the four of them, especially at Lu Shanshan and Xue Xu, and said, "Don't worry, as long as you follow my arrangements, nothing will happen."
"Alright," they nodded.
Lu Shanshan then asked, "But where are we going?"
The travel plans were only discussed with Tang Jing, Dong Junwei, and He Ye. Even Wei Dalei didn't know because it wasn't that they didn't trust the others; it was just that knowing wouldn't make a difference.
Chen Mu pointed in the direction of the cafeteria.
"We need to understand our opponents to survive better. It's time to see what's going on with the people at One Middle School."
