Taiyuan Wang Clan Land is located in the central open space between two rivers northeast of Confucius Temple, covering an area of about 80,000 square meters. There are many high-rise buildings inside, but few people can see the specific layout. After all, not everyone can visit the five surnames.
of the first.
However, recently, probably because of the rebels, the flow of people near the clan area has dropped a lot again, so much so that not a single car has been seen passing by for a long time.
Cheng Jinyang was sitting in the teahouse next to him, and he was actually the only one in the entire hall on the second floor. The boss brought a very good tea, called "General Red Robe", but I didn't know whether it was black tea or oolong tea, and the color was as mellow as amber.
, the young shoots rise and fall like Qiluo rolling.
"Wait a minute, that's not what I ordered..." Just as Cheng Jinyang spoke, the boss said, "This tea is for free."
"Sent?"
"Yes. This tea has to be purchased from other places. It is very expensive and has a short shelf life. After that, it will affect the taste." The boss explained with a smile, "But recently, the regular customers in the tribe have stopped coming. We ourselves have also
If you can’t finish the drink, it would be too wasteful to throw it away. It’s lucky that you are here, sir, so I’ll give it to you for tasting.”
Since the boss said so, Cheng Jinyang took a sip.
In addition to the unique refreshing effect of tea, it also has an extra sweet taste.
"Good tea." He smiled sheepishly, "I'm not an expert in this field, I can only say that it tastes really good."
"That's good." The boss went down with the tray, "If you need to refill the cup, please tell me. You can refill it twice. If you want to refill the cup, you will need to make it fresh, but your money will be calculated as ordinary tea."
"Thank you, boss."
Cheng Jinyang drank tea slowly and looked at the streets and houses outside. For a moment, he even had the illusion that he was a "refined guest".
After a long time, I saw Wang Wanrou holding a book and walking slowly from the clan.
Arriving under the teahouse, Miss Wang suddenly raised her head, and her eyes met the condescending Cheng Jinyang.
Cheng Jinyang raised his tea cup and bowed humbly.
Wang Wanrou withdrew her gaze, entered the store expressionlessly, went upstairs, and sat down opposite Cheng Jinyang.
"General in red robe?" She raised her eyebrows, "You actually know how to drink tea?"
"Hey, why can't I order this?" Cheng Jinyang asked with a smile? "You think I don't know how to drink tea?"
"You know how?" Wang Wanrou asked sarcastically. She looked at the empty surroundings and sneered, "Is it a gift from the boss?"
"You look down on me?" Cheng Jinyang slapped the table and pretended to be angry.
"Yes." Wang Wanrou took his tea cup and took a sip. "Tsk, it's cold. You still said you can drink tea?"
"Isn't it cold?" Cheng Jinyang was puzzled.
"This tea doesn't taste good when it's hot? Does it taste astringent when it's cold? So it's best to drink it within three minutes after putting it in the cup." Wang Wanrou said calmly, "You're already cold, so you can't taste the light astringency?"
Cheng Jinyang:…………
"If you say that, it's really a bit bitter." He sighed.
"Did you have fun last night?" Wang Wanrou asked.
"Daily practice? What makes you happy or unhappy?" Cheng Jinyang shook his head. "Why did you ask me to come this time?"
"I told you, let me check your brain." Wang Wanrou stared at him.
Cheng Jinyang suddenly felt something strange. The other party's pupils were like a whirlpool, as if they had the magic power to suck people's eyes in. He was stunned for a moment. When he suddenly came back to his senses, he saw that Wang Wanrou had finished drinking the tea and was standing there.
Got up.
"Okay." She said calmly, "I probably have an idea."
"What should I say?" Cheng Jinyang stood up to see her off.
"Connection." Wang Wanrou said concisely. "Enhanced connection. It's good news for you... no, for us."
"Can we not play the Riddler game?" Cheng Jinyang went downstairs to pay the boss and sent Wang Wanrou out? "I at least have the right to know about my body and mind, right?"
"Okay, I'll try my best to speak in a language you can understand." Wang Wanrou walked out of the teahouse, "Did you know that bacteria can exchange genetic material?"
"ah?"
"The so-called superpower bloodline is not some kind of physical genetic material, but closer to some kind of spiritual meme." Wang Wanrou walked forward along the street, "This is exactly why superpower bloodline cannot
For the sake of copying.”
"If the key to supernatural bloodline is a certain substance, then it would have been extracted long ago with current science and technology. Unfortunately, it is not a tangible substance, but closer to some kind of spiritual pollution transmitted from father to child.
.”
"How is this pollution passed on to future generations? I don't know. But each person's spirit can only be polluted once, which means you can only inherit it from your ancestors once. When does the specific inheritance occur and in what form?
? I don’t know. But it can be confirmed that it is before the early embryo is formed. The mechanism is unknown and can be approximately considered to be pseudo-random. In other words, when the fetus does not have consciousness, what he can achieve as a superpower in his life
The limit has already been determined."
"Is there a way to break this random inheritance? In the past, I would say no, but now it seems that it is not necessarily. It is like the earliest people thought that bacteria relied on division to complete the replication of genetic material, and later it was discovered that different strains of bacteria also
There is an exchange of genetic material..."
Wang Wanrou suddenly stopped and asked, "Do you understand?"
"You mean I inherited my powers from my dad, but I can get my powers from others through other means?" Cheng Jinyang asked tentatively.
"Well, if this is an exam, just guessing the answer won't count." Wang Wanrou said calmly, "But you are right."
"To use an analogy, your dream is like a petri dish. We are like different strains of bacteria in different environments. Due to some unknown mechanism, they are put into the petri dish of dreams to grow."
"So, what is the meaning of this petri dish? We assume that it is not naturally formed, then the meaning of its creation must be related to the fact that 'our consciousness coexists in dreams'. Putting different bacteria in the same petri dish
What is it doing? By tracing the cause and effect, assuming that some kind of hybrid bacteria finally appears, we can deduce that the purpose of this petri dish is to allow hybridization between different strains of bacteria."
"You mean let's crossbreed?" Cheng Jinyang felt something was wrong as soon as he finished speaking, and coughed quickly to cover up his embarrassment.
"I mean, let our superpower bloodlines hybridize!" Wang Wanrou said coldly, "If increasing bloodline concentration is regarded as the self-reproduction of strains, then 'strains' refers to our bloodlines, not us.
itself!"
"Think again about the big demon who calls herself 'Su Lili'! She used fire attacks in the dream, which is the same as the 'oxidative combustion' bloodline that Su Lili inherited from the Sanchuan Zhu family. This just supports the previous conjecture.
That is the power demons can use on the individuals they devour."
"Or, to take a further bold guess, this dream itself is used by the demon tribe to evolve itself."
"For example, the demon's devouring will not kill the other person's consciousness, but will imprison the other person's consciousness in the body. Then the demon itself acts as a server, bringing all the consciousness imprisoned in the body into the dream, just like you take us into the dream.
That way.”
"Then in the dream, the demon's consciousness and the imprisoned consciousness fight each other. The slain ones can be resurrected indefinitely, but a small amount of their supernatural bloodline will be plundered. If they fight to the end, the consciousness that survives can be
Leave the dreamland and dominate the demon's body, and can use the bloodline abilities of other defeated consciousnesses."
"This sounds like raising gu." Cheng Jinyang said with a sigh.
"Well, this method is called 'predation'. If my guess is correct, there should be another way of 'connection'." Wang Wanrou said, "Next time we enter the dreamland, we can do an experiment to test it first.
Let me kill you a few times and see."
"Why did you kill me?" Cheng Jinyang was shocked.
"With my peerless beauty, you are actually willing to do something?" Wang Wanrou looked at him with disdain.
