While driving, Li Mu saw a lot of trucks cutting branches and trunks of trees. These trucks were followed by material crushers, which were constantly cutting branches of trees on both sides of the road.
This is also the reason why the surrounding trees do not invade the road.
All trees that caused obstacles to traffic were felled or cut into pieces.
Occasionally, some hares and birds were disturbed and fled in all directions.
"These hares and wild birds are getting bigger and bigger!"
Yuan Yicheng looked at the hares and wild birds that occasionally jumped out of the roadside, and exclaimed to Li Mu: "This rabbit is as big as a dog!"
A hare just jumped out from the roadside. It was so fat and big that it was really as big as a dog. It was really incredibly big.
"Hare all the hares mutated?"
Li Mu said in surprise: "It is estimated that in another two years, other beasts will also mutate, either becoming smaller or larger, and many mutants will also appear in the human world."
Under the wash of spiritual energy, both animals and plants will undergo changes, but the most obvious changes must be the plants.
After all, plants grow the fastest.
In addition to plants, the fastest-changing creatures are insects and other small creatures. Because of their small size and short lifespan, these small creatures reproduce quickly. Under the wash of spiritual energy, one generation will exist before they reproduce.
of variants.
In addition to insects, small arthropods and crustaceans, as well as creatures such as invertebrate annelids.
This kind of creature has a simple structure, and its changes are most obvious in aura.
"Brother, have you watched the news too?"
Yuan Yicheng sat in the co-pilot and said to Li Mu: "Recently, there have been a lot of news about mutated animals across the country, but they were all dealt with by court officials. A few days ago, a big snake appeared in our town and ate several people.
A group of court officials were arrested, and it is said that those people are special police specializing in dealing with such mutant incidents."
Li Mu: "A big snake eats people? How big is the snake?"
Yuan Yicheng said: "It is said to be more than five meters long and about the thickness of a bucket. It was coiled on a big tree, like a dragon. It was later said that it was carried around the neck by a master and taken away."
Li Mu nodded: "It's just a python, not a dragon. Ordinary members of the Special Affairs Bureau can handle it."
Because the Great Xia Kingdom is an aura desert, the domestic environment mutates the slowest in the entire world. Although it seems that the proportion of mutants in the Xia Kingdom is smaller than that of foreign mutants, it is also because of this
This gave Xia Guo the opportunity to prepare in advance.
The changes that have taken place in spiritual energy in foreign countries are all seen by the thoughtful people of Xia Kingdom.
Therefore, from a few years ago, the Xia Kingdom's court had been prepared for the influx of spiritual energy. Not only did it develop a large number of medicines and tools for mutated animals and plants, but it also developed a lot of equipment for use in a spiritual energy environment.
For example, some runes and magic formations learned from the West can produce many wonderful changes when applied to body armor or cold weapons.
The Xia Kingdom has many scholars who are proficient in foreign history and myths and legends, and have a detailed understanding of foreign witchcraft and magic. Therefore, after developing rune weapons and protective armor abroad, the Xia Kingdom also produced unique products in foreign bases.
There are weapons and protective clothing.
With these equipment, as long as they are trained armed police or special police, they can deal with creatures with low mutation levels.
With nearly five or six years of preparation, it is estimated that these equipment have been distributed to all parts of the country.
Compared with the huge death rate abroad, Xia's population should not suffer much loss.
"Then if it's a dragon, a lot of it will die!"
When Yuan Yicheng heard Li Mu's evaluation of the big snake, he disagreed a little: "Brother, someone who can subdue a huge python is already very impressive!"
He said this with a look of fascination: "It is said that the imperial court has also established a special affairs bureau to deal with special events. The members are all human beings who have mutated in aura. They all have special skills and have
His special ability is very powerful.
It's a pity that this kind of mutation among humans is only one in ten thousand, and there are only one or two mutants among ten thousand people. I guess there is no hope!"
Li Mu smiled and said: "The members of the Special Affairs Bureau are actually just like that. They are not very powerful and have a lot of power, but they are only suitable for killing. Those who are really in charge must have brains."
In his opinion, most of the members of the Special Bureau are people who were absorbed into the department after ordinary people had mutations. These people were ordinary people before and had serious deficiencies in their thinking and knowledge. Some of them even
No ability to judge of one's own.
Such people can be manipulated and involved in solving certain incidents, but they will never be able to join the decision-making level, and there are not even many channels for advancement.
You can fight and have strong force, but if you don't have enough brains, you can only be a martial artist. The greatest use is to fight on the front line.
There will definitely be no such people at the decision-making level. No matter how great their merits are, they can only be given a false title and enjoy some welfare benefits, but they cannot become people with real power.
Just like Li Mu, even though his cultivation level reaches the sky and he has the power to destroy the world, he is still an ordinary person. The Great Xia court knows how powerful he is, but they will never hire him as a member of the think tank.
Therefore, in Li Mu's opinion, unless these members of the Special Affairs Bureau can calm down and concentrate on practicing, they will be frontline personnel fighting on the front line for the rest of their lives.
However, they should all be on-the-job staff, and their salary and benefits should not be bad. Compared with the average person, they are pretty good.
"It would be great to be a member of the Special Affairs Bureau. Want to enter the decision-making level? It's just a fool's errand."
Yuan Yicheng smiled and said: "Being able to serve in the imperial court means that there is smoke coming out of the ancestral graves. As for things like promotion, don't think too much about it."
Li Mu laughed loudly: "That's right."
His cousin is sober in the world, neither greedy nor possessive, nor has too much desire. This is the way of thinking of ordinary people.
It would be great to be a civil servant, but what kind of bicycle do you need?
The car sped along for nearly an hour, then got off the main road and turned into a small road.
The trees on both sides of the path are very tall, and their branches cover the entire path. Although it is morning and the sun is just right, after the car drives into it, the light in front of the eyes is still dim.
The trees and branches on both sides not only blocked the sun, but also seemed to keep out the wind.
The car walked along the forest path for about ten minutes, passing several villages along the way, and finally stopped in a small village with a stone grinder and a stone mortar at the end of the village.
The first house at the entrance of the first alley at the end of the village is Li Mu's brother-in-law's house, which is also Yuan Qinghua's hometown.
Li Mu often played here when he was a child, and even attended the primary school in this village for half a year. He chased dogs and chickens in this village every year, and became the king of children for a long time.
This village is called Sanhe Village. There are three surnames in total, and the Yuan family is the largest among them.
The car stopped at the entrance of the hospital, and Li Mu and Yuan Yicheng got out of the car together.
As soon as the two got out of the car, they heard a commotion at the end of the village, followed by screams: "Dogs are eating people! Dogs are eating people! Help!"
