Cong Xia said: "How is it? Are you awake?"

Cong Zhenzhong and Tang Tingzhi walked out of the laboratory. Cong Zhenzhong took off his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows, "Who are you asking?"

"Zhuang Yao."

Cong Zhenzhong sighed: "How could it be that simple? We just tested the degree of his brain damage, which was more troublesome than we thought..."

Deng Xiao said anxiously: "Professor, do you have a solution?"

Tang Tingzhi shook his head, "The brain repair of people with brain evolution is a field that we have never touched before. Not to mention people with brain evolution, even the brain of ordinary people is so complex that humans cannot fully understand. Not to mention people with brain evolution, let alone people's brain. To be honest, we are not very sure."

Everyone frowned.

Cong Zhenzhong said: "Mr. Sun's memory extraction work is more complicated. His brain is dead and he has no response to any external stimuli. It is impossible for us to interact with him in brain domain. We can only go deep into his brain nerves and forcefully interpret the central nerve in the responsible memory. However, this matter is even more difficult to implement. If it fails, we will also be in danger."

Cheng Tianbi stood on the side with his chest in his arms and said in a deep voice: "Then...what about Zhao Yi? There should be good news."

Tang Tingzhi looked at him, "Zhao Yi, the former captain of the 9th Division of the Special Operations of the 35th Army of the Beijing Military Region, he woke up, you can go in and take a look."

Cheng Tianbi took a deep breath. Although he could suppress it, he could still see a trace of worry in his eyes, "Does he have his own consciousness?"

Tang Tingzhi said calmly: "You'd better go and take a look."

Cong Xia patted Cheng Tianbi's shoulder, "Tianbi, I'll go in with you."

The two walked into a laboratory together. The snow-white and cold laboratory was filled with various advanced equipment. On the simple test bed was a man in his forties. He was burly and strong in his facial features. Although his face was pale and weak at first glance, his waist was straight.

Cheng Tianbi spoke, his voice trembling slightly, "Captain."

Zhao Yi turned his face and his pupils suddenly contracted, "Sky Wall?"

"Captain." Cheng Tianbi's eyes were bright and he rushed over with a step, "Captain, remember me!"

Zhao Yi suddenly jumped up from the bed, and Cong Xia, who was fast, felt his eyes blurred. When he saw the scene in front of him again, Zhao Yi had already approached Cheng Tianbi at some point and grabbed Cheng Tianbi's neck. Cheng Tianbi did not move, looking at Zhao Yi quietly.

Zhao Yi said sternly: "Where is this place? Are you in the same group with those people? I will go to save Xiaobei and the others. What does it mean to lock me up here!"

Cheng Tianbi was stunned for a while and said in a deep voice: "Captain, where does your memory end?"

Zhao Yi was stunned, "What are you talking about?"

Cong Xia whispered: "Brother, what year and month is it today?"

Zhao Yi frowned, "May 27, 2012." After he said this, he saw that the two of them looked different, and immediately realized something was wrong, "What's wrong? What do you want to say?"

Cheng Tianbi gently pulled his hand away, and a trace of pain appeared in his eyes, "Captain, it's 2015 now. Xiaobei, Lao Mo, Wang Bao, all the people from the Ninth Division of Special Warfare are only two of us, and even the 35th Army no longer exists."

Zhao Yi looked at him stiffly, his eyes instantly supported bloodshots, and his expression was a little distorted. He suddenly raised his hand and slapped his head a few times, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.

Cheng Tianbi lowered his eyes and clenched his fists hard.

Zhao Yi sat down on the bed dejectedly and said hoarsely: "Four days ago, an earthquake occurred in Golmud, Qinghai. Then strange animal and plant mutations began to occur across the country. Food could not be preserved. Stray cats and dogs began to attack humans. Qinghai area was in chaos. I received an order from my superiors to lead people from the Nine Divisions to Qinghai to find the scientific expedition team that lost contact after the earthquake. Yes, it was the scientific expedition team that you and Liuzi went to perform security tasks." He hugged his head, "After the helicopter landed in Golmud, we encountered... a group of monsters,

In just four days, the rats were half a person tall, the stray dogs grew to three meters, and the plants could eat people... Everything was messed up. Our helicopter was destroyed and we could only hike to the earthquake area. The equipment we brought was not enough, and more and more people fell down. Ayang, Wang Bao, Gao Cheng, one by one, all died... all died..." The man in his forties couldn't help crying, "Tianbi, are Liuzi dead? Are there only two of us? Are there only two of us with sixteen brothers? Ayang is only seventeen years old, only seventeen years old..."

Cheng Tianbi lowered his head and his shoulders trembled hard.

Cong Xia turned his face away with a little sadness.

Zhao Yi cried for a long time before his emotions stabilized, "Why am I here? I remember I started fighting with a snake, and later I was swallowed by it. What about you? How did you survive?"

Cheng Tianbi said bitterly: "Captain, feel the power in your body."

Zhao Yi was stunned for a while, looking down at his hand, and the rough big hands suddenly had thick and hard scales. He clenched his fists hard and said, "I remembered that the snake swallowed me, but I seemed... I seemed to have become a snake. I didn't forget my mission. I also wanted to find a scientific expedition team, so I went to the snow mountain. Later, I encountered more monsters. Sometimes I ate them, sometimes they ate me, and then I don't remember them, I can't remember them." Zhao Yi raised his head, his eyes had regained their firmness, "What happened in the past three years?"

Cheng Tianbi said in a deep voice: "It's a long story..."

Cong Xia left the space for the two of them. After he came out, he planned to see Zhuang Yao and then look at Shan Ming. He heard that Shan Ming was awake too. He was not worried about what Shan Ming would say. After all, Colonel Tang has always been trustworthy. He just felt that he should thank Shan Ming, given that he was the only person who was still awake.

Deng Xiao, Liu Fengyu and Tang Yanqiu are all in Zhuang Yao's ward. Zhuang Yao develops later than his peers. He should be almost 14 years old this year, but he looks not much different from two years ago. He is lying on the snow-white bed with a thin body, so fragile that it seems to be crushed in an instant.

Liu Fengyu sighed: "I'm really not used to it without his sarcastic IQ that is always sarcastic."

Cong Xia sat down beside the bed and smiled reluctantly: "It is rare for him to be so honest. If he doesn't speak, he will look cute no matter how he doesn't look at it."

Deng Xiao grabbed his hair irritably, "If Xiao Zhuang Yao doesn't wake up, Abu will be in a slump. Yesterday I forced him to eat something, but it's not a solution to continue like this."

"He will definitely wake up." Tang Yanqiu said: "We have taken on so many dangers. It is impossible for us to be in our own bed and we can't save anyone alone."

Cong Xia nodded, "That's right, there will definitely be a solution for more than 20 people in Beijing's brain evolution." He suddenly remembered something, "Xiao Deng, have you contacted your mother?"

Deng Xiao nodded, "I contacted people from the Yunnan military yesterday, and she almost went to Qinghai to find me. But now it's spring, and it's time for mantis to breed in large quantities. At this time, the female mantis, as the main combat power, is relatively fragile. She is worried that other creatures will take the opportunity to grab the territory, so she has been dragging it away."

Liu Fengyu smiled and said, "Your mother is so handsome, she looks like a gangster sister."

Deng Xiao also smiled, "When she was a kid, she was just a gangster. Although she became much more restrained after giving birth to me, her temper has not changed at all, and she is extremely fierce."

"Does she plan to come to Beijing to find you? Or are you going to Yunnan?"

"When Zhuang Yao wakes up, I will go to Yunnan to find her. Even if I can't help her, I will go and see her." Deng Xiao sighed, "Although I can't accept it when I think about her giving birth to a mantis, it's really troublesome if she can't give birth to her and she refuses to go with me."

"The fertility problem of mutant people has always been one of the most important topics in the research of brain evolutionists, and I believe there will be a solution."

Deng Xiao grabbed his head, "Hey, actually, as long as my mother is still alive, I will be grateful."

Liu Fengyu said: "Well, after Zhuang Yao wakes up, Yanqiu and I plan to go back to Sichuan."

Cong Xia smiled and said, "Oh, see my parents-in-law."

Liu Fengyu raised his eyebrows, "You kid, it's finally your turn to tease me. Are you very proud?"

Cong Xia laughed and said, "It's rare to have an opportunity."

Tang Yanqiu blushed and said softly: "It's not that exaggerating, it's just... I just go back to see my family, and then..." He glanced at Liu Fengyu with a very uncomfortable expression.

Liu Fengyu patted his face, "Don't be afraid, this is called 'out' in the 21st century's perception."

Tang Yanqiu said seriously: "I want to fight in the South China Sea. If we can't come back, at least let my parents know that I have already entrusted my life. When I am buried, I hope he can..."

Liu Fengyu patted his head, "Did you have a good word in your mouth? Who will be buried in your ancestral tomb?"

Tang Yanqiu had his hair cleaned up, "I'm just telling the truth."

Cong Xia smiled and said, "Yanqiu is right. Before the Battle of the South China Sea, you must realize any unfulfilled wishes."

Liu Fengyu smiled faintly, "I know, but my personal wishes in this era have been realized." He looked out the window still covered with snow, his eyes firm and bright.

After leaving Zhuang Yao's ward, Cong Xia walked towards District 6. He was already familiar with the Academy of Sciences, and easily found the place where the Dragon Blood Clan lived and knocked on the door of Shan Ming's room.

"Who?" A low voice came from the room, which was Shen Changze's voice.

Cong Xia said: "It's me, Cong Xia."

The door was opened from the inside, and Shen Changze was pulling the strap of the bathrobe. It looked like he had just put on his clothes. Cong Xia thought in surprise, is the father and son still living together?

Shen Changze looked at him condescendingly, "Is there anything wrong?"

"I want to see Brother Shan, I heard that he is awake."

Chen Changze hesitated for a moment and came in.

Cong Xia walked into the room and saw someone sitting on the dining table carrying him, and eating voraciously at the table. He walked over, "Brother Shan."

Brother Shan turned around and said, "Hey, will your appetite increase if you become a monster? Why am I like a starving ghost these two days?"

Cong Xia said: "It will be done at the beginning. Because your body has not yet been able to adapt to the sudden extra huge energy, the body will feel empty and can only be filled with food. When you slowly adapt, you can return to your normal appetite."

Shan Ming threw away the chopsticks and yawned, "But it's been a long time since I ate it so delicious."

"Brother Shan, how do you feel in your body?"

Shan Ming smiled and clenched his hand tightly, "It's great, I'm full of energy, I feel like I can jump more than ten meters high in one go. It's so cool that I feel like I'm never before."

Chen Changze pulled the tissue and naturally pinched his chin and wiped his mouth. "You just had a different species. The colonel said that your self-consciousness is not stable. You must learn to control your energy, otherwise there is still a possibility of being retaliated against by the lynx's consciousness."

"I understand, don't worry, how can a beast's consciousness be comparable to me?"

Cong Xia smiled and said, "Brother Shan, it's fine. I'm here today to thank you specifically, representing... Mr. Sun and Zhuang Yao." Thinking of the situation of the other two, Cong Xia felt uncomfortable again.

Shan Ming raised his eyebrows, "What do you say thank you to me? If you didn't have you, I wouldn't have been alive. After all, it's just cooperation. If you really want to dig deeper, you play a bigger role in fighting the enemy than me. However, I don't thank you or apologize in my concept. Just think I owe you a favor."

Cong Xiada envied Shan Ming's coolness and domineeringness from the bottom of his heart. He was obviously just an ordinary person without mutation before, but his courage and temperament were even greater than that of a high-level mutant. It seems that although the physical strength of the mutant people increased sharply after the end of the world, his mind did not increase in proportion. After all, most people were ordinary people in obscurity in the past. Compared with them, Shan Ming, a warrior who was reported to have joined the mercenary organization at the age of eight and had more than 20 years of life and death battlefield experience, was definitely better than most people in terms of mental firmness and tenacity. No wonder Shan Ming was not afraid of the consciousness of the lynx at all. As he said, a beast was just a beast and could not compare with him. Although Shan Ming was not a person who was easy to get along with, after a little understanding of his personality, he was a reliable comrade-in-arms.

Cong Xia said sincerely: "No matter what, we can come out alive and you have a contribution. I hope there will be a chance to fight side by side in the future."

Shan Ming grinned, "You boy, you are much more decent than when you watched the insects tremble in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda."

Cong Xia also smiled.

Shan Ming said: "I heard that Mr. Sun died of brain and the child was also unconscious, right?"

Cong Xia's expression darkened and he nodded.

"So, now only a few of us know what happened underground?"

Cong Xia nodded. He knew that the "wesome" that Shan Ming referred to was the people on his side and the other three backbones of the Dragon Blood Clan. At present, only such a few people knew about this matter, and it must be controlled within such a few people.

"Okay, so as not to be afraid of some wastes being afraid of retreating. I never believe in life and will not accept any sacrifices to save others. We have all come to this point today. We cannot let our efforts be in vain. No matter what, we must see the final result."

Cong Xia said: "Yes, we must go to the last step and work hard until the last moment, otherwise we will never give up."

Shan Ming jumped up, "Haha, I'm full, son, let's go out for a walk. I really want to run away now."

Chen Changze showed a faint smile. Looking at Cong Xia's eyes, there was a different kind of gentleness.
