The female student next to Professor Matt wiped the sweat off his head for him.
Taking off the bloody gloves on his hands, Professor Matt handed over the anatomy of the ancient millipede to several students around him.
As the middle-aged man arrived at the small attic outside the D-5 Tiankeng Research Institute, the police officer next to the middle-aged man soon brought two cups of coffee.
After all, Matt was getting old, and the tedious dissection work that lasted for more than two hours made him a little exhausted.
He stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and drank the coffee in front of him.
"To be honest, General James, I need you to give me some help now."
The middle-aged man known as General James took a sip of coffee and did not directly agree to his request.
"I think Mr. Matt should know that in order to successfully rescue you from the US military base, we spent a lot of financial and material resources, and we even did not hesitate to confront the US military about it. Although you have a very important position in our military, I miss you
It should also be clear that your current status was given by us. If you continue to work without doing your best, any existence that may become an enemy of the military will be destroyed."
Matt was surprised. Indeed, their team had offended many people at the D-5 Tiankeng Research Institute during this period of time.
However, Matt has always maintained his aloofness.
He thought that after the military went through so much trouble to smuggle him back from the United States, he would definitely treat him as a guest.
He did not expect that General James would say such words to her today. Water can carry a boat and also capsize it.
What General James said is very obvious. If Matt can't do what General James says and continue to be aloof, the final result will be that the military will solve it on his own.
In addition to Matt's certain attainments in the field of genetic biology research, once he leaves the D-5 Tiankeng Research Institute, he will be nothing, and it will be difficult to even solve basic food and clothing problems.
There is an old saying in China: "He who knows the current affairs is a hero."
"I hope Mr. Matt can spend more time studying Chinese civilization and understand our military's style of doing things."
General James dropped the cigar in his hand on the ground, scuffed his leather shoes slightly, and said threateningly.
Matt was hit by a chill all over his body, and with a sneer on his face he promised: "General James is worrying too much, since you have removed me from the U.S. military."
"From that day on, I, Matt, swore to serve the Chinese military to the death."
General James turned around, glanced at him, nodded with satisfaction.
"Go back and continue your research. If you have any questions, report them to me immediately."
General James finished his sentence and was about to leave, but Matt suddenly remembered something.
He chased after him and said, "General James, there is something I want to ask you."
"Where is the jade staircase we searched at the intern's home in Jiayuan, Hexi?"
"The mucus we extracted from the monster previously showed that the DNA sequence is different from any other found creature."
"When I was young, I traveled to Japan and heard a folk story that said that during the Tang Dynasty, Concubine Yang traveled west to Japan."
"I once brought a piece of national treasure Jade Steps. Folk rumors say that the national treasure Jade Steps are the passage to heaven."
Monk Hui Xue, the elder of the Erzun Temple in the ancient Japanese temple enshrining Yang Guifei’s tomb, once wrote: “In July of the fifteenth year of Tianbao, Yang Yuhuan, the beloved concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, took a boat and landed at Jiujin Tang Ferry.
He died shortly after landing and was buried behind the temple."
The 15th year of Tianbao is 756 AD.
In 756 AD, Concubine Yang Guifei and her maid drifted to a place called Tang Ferry in Kutsu, Aburaya Town, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan.
Concubine Yang died shortly after landing. The locals buried her on a high slope with a view of the sea to the west and the motherland in the distance.
Later, Concubine Yang told Xuanzong in a dream that she was no longer alive after arriving in Japan.
From then on, there was no separation between life and death in heaven and earth, and we could only see each other again in the next life.
The grief-stricken Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty sent White Horse General Chen An to pay homage, but Chen An could not find the cemetery. He stored the two Buddha statues and the thirteen-story pagoda he brought with him at Qingliang Temple in Kyoto and returned.
After hearing about this incident, the small temple in Aburaya Town asked Seiryoji Temple in Kyoto to preserve the two Buddha statues. It is said that what they got in the end were two imitation Buddha statues.
But no matter what, this small temple got its name "Two Buddha Temple" because it enshrines these two Buddha statues.
Dr. Matt told General James that one of his friends, the world-famous historian He Bingli, had made a special trip to Erzunyuan for inspection.
He said that there is a jade staircase enshrined in the innermost attic of Erzunyuan, but that jade staircase is one of the most important properties of the local temple, and outsiders are strictly prohibited from observing it at close range.
However, based on the appearance and size he told me when he came back, I think it is 80% similar to the jade steps found in Wu Wencan's room.
This matter actually interested General James.
Gaoshan has taken over the research on Jade Steps, but no useful news has come back in the past week.
Archaeologists said that the jade steps have a long history. They held corresponding meetings with the Geological Survey Bureau and the Jewelry Research Institute, but no one department could draw a conclusion.
First of all, there is no way to determine the material of this jade step.
The final conclusion given by the Jewelry Research Institute and the Geological Survey is that it is 5% similar to the material of jade, but it is different from any rock structure found in the world.
The Jewelry Research Institute concluded that its appearance and line outline are inconsistent with the craftsmanship of any current civilization and dynasty.
Moreover, this jade step carving has been measured into three-thirds of the wood, and the accuracy of some circular patterns on it almost exceeds the pi ratio.
Archaeologists have made no progress either.
The line outlines, craftsmanship, and text on them have not been used by any civilization so far, and research has entered a stagnant state.
Now I can only place all my hopes on Gao Shan, hoping that he can find something.
What Dr. Matt said was undoubtedly a wake-up call for General James.
"Is it possible that there are really ghosts and gods in this world?"
General James frowned slightly, remembering what his daughter had been through during this period.
If the method of immortality can really be obtained, will the wife sleeping in the ice coffin also be able to wake up?
"Teacher, are you there? There is a major discovery in the laboratory!"
As soon as Dr. Matt turned around, he saw his disciple Daniel banging on the glass desperately, the excitement on his face getting stronger.
Dr. Matt nodded apologetically to General James and said, "I am a student who is too crazy about scientific research."
"If General James has nothing else to do here, we might as well go see what he has discovered."
