Chapter 2182 (1/2)
Mushrooms, these things are always easy to associate with dreams, they may be the first natural hallucinogens used by animals, these soft and lovely fungi have always been on the earth, playing a variety of roles.
Before the 1960s, people thought mushrooms belonged to the plant kingdom, because these guys with small umbrellas couldn't move. They were just under the roots of big trees or in dark and humid places, which made them harmless to human beings and animals.
The ancients thought that they were the most primitive and humble cryptosperms like lichens and mosses, and there was no need to pay attention to them.
However, with the development of science and technology, especially the widespread use of microscopes, it has been found that the growth mode, living habits, and even the overall structure of mushrooms are quite different from those of plants. Cellulose is the material that constitutes the main body of plants, while chitin is the component of mushrooms, which is common in the bodies of various insects.
They are more like animals than plants, decomposers in the food chain, and even the ultimate participants in all forms of life.
The circulation of energy in nature is not very complicated.
Plants absorb trace elements from the soil and synthesize carbohydrates through photosynthesis, which are then consumed by herbivores.
These herbivores survive, reproduce, and are consumed by carnivores. The energy level is transferred up the pyramid of the biological chain to the top animals, which are now occupied by omnivores represented by human beings.
After the death of high-level consumers, the corpses are consumed by decomposers represented by fungi and bacteria, which are decomposed into trace elements and become fertilizer for plants again to complete the cycle.
In the food chain, fungi are more important than plants. They have a very powerful characteristic. That is to be able to intervene in any step of the above cycle, so as to directly complete the closed loop of energy.
It can not wait for the plant to grow, let the seed mildew, kill it in swaddling clothes. It may also parasitize living organisms, accelerating their return to dust.
But now Su Ming saw these huge fungi, which created the first direct killing.
”Xiao Hong, do you see clearly?”
With the ”whoosh” message sending tone, Hally began to urge her relatives and friends.
But then she took a self portrait of herself and the death knell with her backhand.
”Ah, you're with Slade the other world again?” Poison rattan girl quickly sent a voice, but the focus is not on the mushroom Zombies: ”are you on the beach? Why didn't you wear a swimsuit or did you encounter a drooling zombie
Hally wriggled up and down twice. She put one hand around the neck of the death knell and rolled her eyes with her mobile phone in the other hand: ”God knows, I found that my life has been ups and downs. Last night, I had a good time with him. But today, just at dawn, dada, the happy journey became the end of life.”
”Last night?” Poison rattan girl again sent over the voice with a strange.
”Let's go back and tell me what happened to these mushrooms. They spread so fast that I don't want my favorite New York ice cream shop to close.” Hally smiles and takes another video of zombies gnawing at people.
There are not many buildings around the harbour, and the tallest building is only six stories, but these zombies are beginning to drag people out of the buildings and bite, and more zombies are climbing along the outer walls.
When climbing to the roof of the building, they would not move, and they would stand upright on the edge, looking like they would jump off the building collectively.
