106 Puppet Jade
Cong Xia woke up the next morning and felt refreshed and blushed. He felt in a good mood when he saw everything. Even if Deng Xiao stole two boiled eggs, he pretended not to know.
Cheng Tianbi and Tang Yanqiu had already gotten up early to practice in the morning. Deng Xiao went downstairs in a daze as he smelled the fragrance of breakfast. Liu Fengyu was lazy as usual. Zhuang Yao was abnormal and did not come out until he was eating.
"Where is Xiao Deng, where is Zhuang Yao?"
Deng Xiao said depressedly: "I don't know, I didn't sleep all night, so I watched that video repeatedly. It was midnight. If I hadn't been brave, I would have been scared by that kid."
"Are you still in the room?"
"exist."
"Xiao Tang, go and call Brother Liu to get up. Xiao Deng, call Zhuang Yao out for dinner, and then look at the eyes and it's over." He was really curious about what information was hidden in the video.
"Oh." Deng Xiao obediently went back to the room and asked Zhuang Yao to go, and Tang Yanqiu also walked towards his room.
Cheng Tianbi happened to come back from morning exercise. When he passed by Cong Xia, Cong Xia felt his breath even though he didn't turn around. He turned his head and just hit Cheng Tianbi's eyes.
A hint of panic flashed in Cheng Tianbi's eyes, and his expression was a little stiff.
Cong Xia smiled and said, "It's early."
Cheng Tianbi nodded slightly, walked to the dining table and sat down.
Very shy...
Seeing that there was no one beside him, Cong Xia walked to him and put down a bowl of tremella, and smiled and said, "Drink while it's hot. In a few days, I'll find someone to ask for some ingredients and make you mousse cake."
Cheng Tianbi whispered: "I didn't say I like sweet food."
Cong Xia rubbed his ears and said softly: "But I can see."
Cheng Tianbi felt the ears getting hot. Seeing Cong Xia's slender waist swaying past his eyes, he felt the urge to hug him tightly.
As soon as Cong Xia brought the food to the table one by one, he heard Zhuang Yao shouting angrily: "Let me down!"
When he looked back, he saw Deng Xiao holding Zhuang Yao in his armpit and holding him out, holding the computer in his other hand.
Deng Xiao put Zhuang Yao on the chair, pointed at Cong Xia and said, "Brother Cong asked me to call you out."
Zhuang Yao gave him a blank look, angrily tidy up his clothes, and said to Cong Xia: "I'm studying videos, I don't want to eat."
"How many times have you watched it in one night? Tianbi said that the videos with content are only ten minutes in total."
"Watch it a few more times and you will get new rewards."
"Then what are you getting now? Everyone is waiting to know." Cong Xia brought a bowl of tremella soup to him, "Drink this to make you feel appetizing first."
Everyone also sat down and started to have breakfast.
Zhuang Yao took a few bites and put it down, "Only three of the dozen videos have pictures, but the information is very large. In general, we suspect that the person who asked for help was indeed alienated, and the video shows that he is deprived of his self-consciousness by insects. We all know that when humans and other species aliens, especially those with thinking species aliens, there will be a self-conscious battle for the control of the body. After all, two independent consciousnesses are integrated into one body, and one must be the leader to lead the daily behavior of this new body. Like Liu Fengyu, he wanted to digest various animals for a while, which is caused by the self-consciousness of the king flower. However, the self-consciousness of plants is relatively
Weak, Liu Fengyu quickly defeated this consciousness. For example, those carnivorous aliens, it is estimated that it will be more difficult than Liu Fengyu to defeat the self-consciousness of animals. However, the brains of animals and plants are not as good as humans, and humans will eventually win. At least all the aliens we are currently in contact with retain the human consciousness. However, I have not conducted a comparative experiment on whether these people's temperaments are affected by animals and plants. It is hard to say. The self-consciousness of these insects should have been very weak, and they are relatively simple mollusks with simple structures, but they are large in number. One or two self-consciousness is nothing, but the self-consciousness of thousands or even over 100 million insects is very huge, so huge that that person cannot resist it."
Cong Xia interrupted: "This involves a concept. I would like to discuss first whether xenogra can only be single species and single species, or can a single species be alienated by multiple species? According to you, that person should be alienated by countless insects at the same time, otherwise he would have to face the self-awareness of one insect."
"I have also thought about this question. All the aliens we have seen are single aliens, but there is an exception, that is, the aliens Yi Dong, who was completely batted, was not a bat, but a large number of bats. Combined with the example of this man, it can be basically confirmed that aliens do not have to be one-on-one."
"Yes, I also thought of that bat alien, so with this guess, we have very limited understanding of the mutations of animals, plants and humans. We basically only stayed at the satellite information intercepted from Beijing before leaving Guiyang, as well as the information told by others along the way. I think our understanding of alien species is still in its early stages."
"Yes, we still have a lot to know. Maybe the evolution of species is not limited to these methods, but we just don't know it yet. Therefore, it is not strange that those group of insects can be combined with collective alien species, so I guess that alien species may not be limited to only two species."
Cong Xia was shocked, "What do you mean is that a species may be alienated from two or more species?"
"Yes, because that's what's reflected in that video tells us."
"What else is in the video?"
Zhuang Yao paused and began to drink water to moisten his throat.
Cheng Tianbi took over the conversation, "The man with yellow pupils we saw was not the only one in the video. Those bugs probably absorbed everyone who entered the tower."
When everyone's faces changed when they heard the word "absorb".
"Absorb, absorb?"
Tang Yanqiu said: "Yes, the word absorption is because it is the most intuitive feeling when we watch those videos. Although the video is very blurry, we can vaguely see some people, with bugs crawling under their skin, and the limbs or skin in some places have cracked, and the blood flowing out is as yellow as insects. We can no longer tell whether those people are still alive, because they are all moving, but the actions they make are weird, not like human actions. But even if they are alive, they should not be considered human." Tang Yanqiu's face was not very good-looking when he said this, after all, those hell-like scenes are not something that ordinary people can bear.
Several listeners took a breath and their expressions were a little stiff.
Liu Fengyu said: "But it may also be parasitized by those insects, or just being eaten by the insects. Why are you sure you are being alienated?"
"Because there is only seven or eight seconds of a picture."
“What picture?”
Zhuang Yao turned on the computer, turned on the video, pulled the progress bar, and pushed the computer to them.
Liu Fengyu complained, "Damn, you can't show us another time? You're having a meal."
"Don't look when you're afraid."
"I'm not afraid, I'm just disgusted."
Zhuang Yao ignored him and clicked on the play button.
Cong Xia stared at the center of the screen. First, it was pitch black, but the background music was very terrifying. It seemed that something was rolling and moving. With the dark picture, it was similar to the drag corpse. Then the picture turned around. Several white shadows appeared on the dark screen. Cong Xia looked carefully and saw that there were two people in white standing. The clothes were the protective suits of the third wave of people entering. They were just very torn and dirty, and they could barely recognize them. There were a few black shadows on the ground, twisting wildly. Cong Xia looked closely and saw that there were really a few people. Their bodies were covered with insects, but occasionally they could see some limbs and skin. Just as Tang Yanqiu described, their skin was cracked, and the ground was covered with yellow water, but they were still moving, and their movements were very violent, as if they were struggling dyingly. Cong Xia endured the nausea and continued to look down.
But the video ended all at once.
Cong Xia exhaled a long sigh, "Oh my God..."
Liu Fengyu's face looked very ugly, "It's over? It's gone? What can I tell?"
Zhuang Yao pulled the progress bar back and played it again. He pointed at the two people standing on the screen, "You guys look at them."
Everyone's eyes were forced to endure another torture of fear, staring at the two people standing. The picture was too dark and they couldn't see the expressions of the two people clearly. However, after careful observation, their chests were slowly rising and falling, which meant they were alive, and there was no insect on them. They lowered their heads and looked at their struggling companions on the ground without any reaction.
The video stopped and the dining table was silent.
After a while, Zhuang Yao said, "Do you understand? These two people are still alive, but I'm afraid they are no longer humans."
"Who shot this video?"
"I don't know. The person who shot the video is either dead or has become such a thing now."
Cong Xia smiled bitterly and said, "I'm very glad we didn't go in."
Liu Fengyu took a picture of the computer, "Fortunately I didn't go in. I won't go in even if I die."
Even Zhuang Yao was still scared, "This Big Wild Goose Pagoda is really too dangerous, it is more dangerous than all the dangers we have experienced in the past. Fortunately, we only escaped at the door, otherwise the outcome would be the same as these people."
"But when we went in, why didn't these... things come to attack us?" Cong Xia really didn't know how to describe these "people" he looked at.
"I don't know, what makes people even more curious is why they didn't leave the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Last time we came in with the puppet jade, the insects chased out more than 300 meters, but they stopped chasing each other. If they wanted to, they could completely cover the entire Xi'an city. At their reproduction speed, occupying a city was nothing, but they could not leave the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. What I can think of is that they were not unable to leave the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, but they could not leave the puppet jade. Maybe they didn't need to eat at all, and they could survive as long as they absorb energy."
Cong Xia nodded, "I also thought about this possibility. They are crazy about the puppet jade, but the puppet jade is a very light thing. I will pick it up and leave unless there is something in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda that binds the puppet jade."
"Is there anything that can bind the puppet jade..." Zhuang Yao said thoughtfully.
"No matter what, it is a good thing to have something to confine them in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, otherwise those insects and those "people" will come out and Xi'an will be over."
Zhuang Yao said in a deep voice: "This kind of bondage is probably only temporary. If the insects continue to expand, sooner or later, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda will not be able to withstand them. Moreover, they now have these 'people'..."
Liu Fengyu said: "Don't worry about it, we can't go back anyway. How is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda like? It won't affect us. It's better to think about our troubles now."
Deng Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, we have all been so far away, and the insects will not chase us to Beijing. Why are you scaring yourself?"
Cong Xia sighed, "You are right. Let's put the matter of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda first. When you arrive in Beijing, you can leave it to my second uncle. I think they will not let go of the puppet jade in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and it can also be used as a reference for the government."
Zhuang Yao said: "It does have nothing to do with us for the time being, but these things... are really uncomfortable. If they leave the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and take the attitude of a human, wouldn't they be fine wherever they want to go? Therefore, we can not study these insects for the time being, but we must not relax our vigilance and assume that they do not exist."
These videos made everyone feel very heavy and didn’t eat much breakfast. Cong Xia felt distressed when he watched the rest of the things, so he asked Deng Xiao to clean it up.
After dinner, everyone gathered together to discuss strategies and preparations.
Zhuang Yao slapped the table, "First of all, the most important thing I want to remind you is not to trust anyone in Luoyang. Although Yan Huiyang wants to cooperate with us, I can see that he has reservations about us. This is normal. We must also take every step and change our strategy according to tense at any time."
Everyone nodded.
Zhuang Yao said: "I will start analyzing our situation now. According to Yan Huiyang, a mutant organization in Beijing has joined forces with Zhao Fan and Yao Huang, intending to completely eliminate Wei Zi. In order to resist this attack, Wei Zi needs to absorb a large number of mutants. Now it is too late to conduct genetic modification experiments. Therefore, Wei Zi is absorbing small gangs in Luoyang everywhere and will eventually make her think about Lu Yun. However, given the other two companies are eyeing him, he will not do anything about Lu Yun for the time being, but once he this time
If the decisive battle with the mutant organization in Beijing is won, Luyun will definitely be his next target of destruction. Even if Wei Zi is eliminated, Zhao Fan and Yao Huang, who are becoming more powerful, will definitely not let Luyun go. So now is the best time for Luyun to take advantage of their decisive battle and protect themselves. So they have to cooperate with us, because our ultimate goal is Puppet Jade, who is fighting against these two sides at the same time. Only by weakening the strength of these two sides at the same time can Luyun survive smoothly after this battle."
Liu Fengyu said lazily: "The relationship of mutual use."
"Yes. Wei Zi and those small gangs are a force, we and Luyun are a force, Beijing's mutant organization and Zhao fans, Yao Huang is a force, and when the three-legged team is in a row, the relationship is the most stable, but the collapse is the most thorough. The reason why Luoyang is still so calm now is because no one dares to act rashly, and they all want to wait for the other two to fight first, hoping to reap the benefits of the fisherman."
Cong Xia said: "But now there is an additional unstable factor, which is the reward order for us. This reward order has turned us from hunters to prey."
Zhuang Yao said: "That's right, we pulled us directly from the corner to the sun, but this is not all bad. At least we can use this to provoke a battle between Wei Zi, Zhao Fan and Yao Huang."
"What do you want to do?"
Zhuang Yao smiled mysteriously.
