Chapter 257: beating blood vessels

Chapter 257 Beating Blood Vessels

 “These three clues should not exist independently!”

Zhao Meng, who returned to the hiding spot, analyzed the current situation.

 The liquid flowing out of the statue, [conjugation] causes abnormalities in the people of the Xi tribe, the breath of this world.

 The three seem to exist independently, but if you think about it carefully, you can find that there are various connections.

“The Ruoxi people discovered a certain phenomenon in their own genes through the liquid oozing out of the statue, which also illustrates a certain connection.”

Zhao Meng studied this strange statue for a while, but finally found no further clues.

 He walked out of the place where the statue was hidden and came outside, which was on the mountainside of a mountain.

At the foot of the mountain was a city whose name he didn't know. Under the sunlight, the high-rise buildings shone brightly. At this time, there was a white line across the blue sky, which was the trace left by an airplane.

 This world looks very similar to the world in his previous life.

Facing such a world, apart from the initial fluctuations in his heart, Zhao Meng knew very well that the sudden appearance here in the gap between the immortal world and the mortal world must have something to do with the immortals.

But Zhao Meng still doesn't know why the immortal constructed such a world, and where he found the group of people similar to the previous world.

"Could it be said that the immortals already know the fact that I have traveled through time?"

“Or maybe my time travel is related to the fairy world?”

 Zhao Meng thought of the phantom in his body again.

 “What’s the purpose of all this?”

 …

 At this time, in the administrative center of the Dong people,

After a period of intense isolation and disinfection, the samples sent by Zhao Meng were sent to a biological laboratory with the highest security level, and the samples were studied.

 Many people in power have also set their sights on such research.

 After all, the changes in the Xi tribe are too terrifying. Although the Dong tribe knows that the Xi tribe has been trying to create some genetic weapons.

 But the human beings who destroyed a city so easily have gone beyond the basic cognitive scope of biology.

 “Could it be related to the alien?” The decision-makers waiting for the test results were quietly discussing something.

“From a behavioral logic point of view, he may not be the mastermind, but we cannot apply our behavioral analysis methods to this alien. Everything has to wait for the identification of the quarantined person and the analysis of the sample results.”

 …

 “The preliminary test results are out!”

“Zhao Meng sent two samples, one of which was initially detected as blood containing a large amount of abnormal substances.”

"The other liquid seems to be a purified product of the blood sample."

Those who came to report used the projector to explain the data to the people in power of the Dong ethnic group.

Zhao Meng sent a total of two samples. One was collected from the blood remains of the Xi people, and the other was an unknown transparent liquid.

“After our further analysis, this purified product seems to be some kind of serum.”

“This serum contains very little genetic material.”

“The abnormalities of the Xi people are most likely caused by this substance.”

"We are currently decoding, sorting, and comparing this substance..."

 “Analyze as soon as possible!”

"yes!"

Under normal circumstances, it will take a certain amount of time to sequence a piece of genetic material.

  But with the efforts of the entire Dong tribe, the sequencing work is proceeding at an unprecedented speed.

“After testing, the unknown gene in this unknown substance is very old, similar to our estimated ancestor..."

 …

Out of some considerations, the Dong people sent the analysis results of the samples to Zhao Meng.

 “Grandma Yuan!”

“This statue is actually related to the origin of intelligent life in this world!”

 After reading the information from the Dong tribe, Zhao Meng’s eyes flashed with surprise.

 In his previous life, he had seen an interesting piece of knowledge. Human genetic inheritance is not 100% equal between men and women.

Rather, women pass on a little more material to their offspring than men, and most of the extra genetic material is in cell structures called mitochondria.

Through this special discovery, after humans have sequenced a large number of genes and completed large projects such as the Century Gene Database, they can find a common grandmother for humans with the assistance of computer programs.

Many people questioned this theory at first, but with the further development of genetic technology and through supercomputers, humans have further constructed the appearance of the common grandmother of mankind.

Humans in this world also discovered such an existence, and the Dong people named it Yuan Grandmother.

“The leakage on the statue is similar to the genetic data of the Yuan Grandmother speculated by the Dong people!”

“And the abnormalities on the statue also exist on those mutated Westerners.”

“Through the identification, I am related to the things in these statues?”

“So the humans on this planet have a certain relationship with me, but the strange thing is that the [identification] entry has no response to the humans on this world.”

“Is it because it was too long apart to be detected?”

“And the most important point is, why do their grandmother’s genes cause such horrific changes in their offspring?”

Zhao Meng was a little confused about this:

“Wait a minute, is it because the use of the [conjugation] term has become some kind of abnormal triggering condition?”

What Zhao Meng couldn’t figure out, the Dong ethnic researchers couldn’t figure out either.

They don’t understand why the Xi tribe would inject such genes into their bodies, and why their ancestors’ data would cause such horrific changes in their bodies.

 “Let’s experiment on monkeys first!”

Out of curiosity, the Dong people continued to conduct in-depth experiments.

They injected the leakage fluid given by Zhao Meng into a monkey, and then something unexpected happened to the Dong people.

The monkey lost all its hair in a short period of time, and slowly transformed from a long-haired beast into a petite human.

 Such a change stunned the Dong researchers. The monkey's changes once again broke their understanding of biology.

"impossible!"

"This is impossible!"

 An old man with gray hair murmured something, and his body started to tremble:

“Could it be that we didn’t evolve and were enlightened by some kind of existence?”

"This is impossible!"

Just when the researcher's world view was shocked, the monkey that had been injected with leakage fluid and turned into a human suddenly burst open.

The monkey turned into a pool of blood, and this pool of blood moved slowly as if there was some kind of life.

 But unfortunately, this pool of blood failed to find a moving target in the end, and slowly lost its voice.

If the sudden change in the front of the monkey has impacted the worldview of the Dong people, then the changes in the rear of the monkey have made the Dong people feel fear and confusion.

 “Why did it turn into a human being, and why did it turn into blood and water!”

“Find the alien. This leakage was provided by the alien. He must know the answer.”

 …

Zhao Meng, who was hiding in the mountains, was still trying to pry open the statue.

The previous analysis from the Dong tribe made Zhao Meng more interested in the contents of this statue.

“If there is a common ancestor of humans in this world, then there must be some clues about her.”

 “How’s Yinji’s detection going?”

"The gap looks very wide, but for some reason, neither Notochor nor I can penetrate it. There seems to be an invisible barrier between us!" "Barrier?"

Hearing Xixihu’s response, Zhao Meng was stunned for a moment. Xixihu is the brain neuron of Yinji, and Yinji’s notochord is an important nerve center.

These two structures are extremely delicate and can explore places that Zhao Meng cannot, but now facing this visible crack with the naked eye, he cannot go deep.

"strangeness!"

Zhao Meng touched it with his hand.

 While his hands were stained with some permeate, Zhao Meng could clearly feel the existence of the gap through his fingers without any obstruction.

“Since they can’t go deep into Xixi Lake, it seems they have to use other methods!”

At the same time that tough physical methods were unable to penetrate deep into the statue, Zhao Meng was left with few options.

 “Try the entries!”

Thinking of this, Zhao Meng's heart moved. The term he had been using cautiously was used by him.

 “Will the clouds be effective on the stone?”

Zhao Meng pressed the cloud and mist on the crack of the statue, and a strange scene happened immediately. The cloud and mist in his hand was actually absorbed by the crack on the statue.

Zhao Meng then saw that the cracks on the statue were rapidly expanding. In the blink of an eye, the entire statue was covered with dense cracks.

 “Zhao Meng, be careful, it’s going to break!”

Hearing what Xixihu said, Zhao Meng hurriedly retreated.

 The next moment, a sound like breaking glass reached his ears, and the mysterious statue turned into pieces.

"That's..." A red sphere appeared in the original position of the statue. The sphere seemed to be a big ball of hair wrapped with wool.

 But if you look closely, you will find that the sphere is not made of wool, but of beating blood vessels.

 “Zhao Meng, there is a faint aura of Yin Ji on it!”

  “!?”

The reminder from Xixi Lake was still echoing in Zhao Meng’s ears, but the red sphere appearing in the statue had already undergone new changes.

 “Gudong!”

 The beating sound like a heart comes from inside the wool.

 “Gudong!”

There was another beat, and the red sphere doubled in size with the sound.

 “Gudong!”

 “Gudong!”

 …

With the constant beating sound, the red sphere grew bigger and bigger, filling the entire cave in the blink of an eye.

 Seeing this situation, Zhao Meng had already hid outside the cave. Zhao Meng was observing the changes below from the sky.

Red blood vessels protrude from various gaps in the mountain, flying randomly in the air, giving people a creepy feeling.

 And these extended blood vessels did not stop expanding, and continued to extend upward, straight into the sky.

 …

 “Can’t you leave yet?”

“We have been isolated for such a long time, so we should be sure there is nothing wrong!” Lu Xiaoxi was communicating with colleagues outside the door.

“I was supposed to end the quarantine, but something happened, and you have to stay for a while longer.”

 “Change!”

“As for what happened, I don’t know. This is all a forced order from above.”

 “Okay! Just think of it as my vacation.”

Lu Xiaoxi reluctantly returned to her bed, where she lay looking at the information on her tablet in boredom.

“This abominable alien, if he didn’t put the sample directly in front of me, how could I be quarantined?”

After Lu Xiaoxi muttered a word or two, a wave of tiredness came over her. She put the tablet aside and soon fell asleep.

 …

Lu Xiaoxi stood in a blood-red world. The bustling city in the past had turned into a blood-red world.

High-rise buildings are covered with blood vessels like ivy,

She looked up and saw that the sky was no longer blue, but blood red. Even the sun was blood red.

At this moment, a rumbling sound came from behind her, and a wave of blood swept in from a distance.

 She saw many familiar figures in the snow waves, her friends, her colleagues, her parents, and more strangers.

Although these people were swept away by waves of blood, their faces looked peaceful.

 “It’s time to come back!”

 A red hand suddenly grabbed her and pulled her into the blood.

 …

"ah!"

Lu Xiaoxi suddenly sat up and gasped:

 “Damn it, it’s this nightmare again!”

 “Since when did I start having this nightmare!”

 “It’s the alien.”

"Yes, it's him. Ever since he appeared, this nightmare has always appeared in my mind!"

Thinking of Zhao Meng, Lu Xiaoxi suddenly became quiet:

 “I keep having dreams like this, and I always feel something is wrong.”

Despite long-term training, Lu Xiaoxi has no superstitious ideas. She believes that dreams are just a reflection of reality, and that nightmares are always caused by too much pressure in reality.

 But always having the same nightmare still made an inexplicable shadow appear in her heart.

Just when Lu Xiaoxi was calming down, she suddenly noticed that a red light seemed to appear outside the window.

 “Is it already evening?”

Lu Xiaoxi stood up and came to the window, looking at the scenery outside the window.

“Today’s sunset is particularly red!”

 Under the sunset, the tall buildings and trees were tinged with a faint red light. It was a very quiet evening.

 Seeing such a scene, the uneasiness caused by the nightmare just now dissipated a little.

 “Hey! Is something big happening?”

At this moment, she saw several of her colleagues rushing towards the vehicle. The roar of the car broke the quiet scene.

 The sunset on the horizon is getting redder and redder, and the redness is a bit abnormal. Lu Xiaoxi is holding a tablet at this time, seeming to be communicating with colleagues, and has not noticed the change in the sky.

 Suddenly there was a knock on the door:

“Xiao Xi, get ready, we have an emergency transfer!”

 “Transfer, what happened? It’s necessary to transfer?”

Hearing the sound outside the door, Lu Xiaoxi was shocked. You must know that this is the administrative center of the Dong clan. There is no safer place on the planet than here.
