"This time a catastrophic emergency." Meng Jianguo walked slowly in the office with his hands behind his back: "There was no warning in the seventh district, and the military lost the lives of 3,400 soldiers. A hero died gloriously. At the bottom of the sea, I planned to come up today with a gun to find the engineer who designed the sixth area."
Qin Hai pushed his glasses and said sympathetically: "Oh, the engineer of the Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology died when the zombie wave broke out, and it is said that he was shot dead by the mob. If the army went to protect him earlier, maybe he would be dead now. There is still a chance to pay for the hero's life."
Meng Jianguo: "Until now, the Seventh District didn't even give me an analysis and explanation."
Qin Hai: "Didn't the military's independent biochemical team submit a report? I remember that they used to be members of the Sixth District. They were shot in the head, walked out of Hongqiao, and were escorted into the Sixth District."
Meng Jianguo took a deep breath, and Liu Yan couldn't help admiring in his heart, comparing himself with Qin Hai, he was nothing compared to the big picture.
"Let's be honest." Qin Haidao: "I will never sign the report you submit to the United Nations. Even if I am shot dead in the office by a bullet, my next, next-to-next, will never sign …”
"It's because..." Liu Yan said, "If China makes a move, it will break the balance of the Allied Forces. All countries will start burning and bombing their lands, right?"
Qin Hai looked at Liu Yan with the eyes of a fool, very surprised that he didn't know anything, but was brought here. After a while, he nodded and said, "Yes, why are you so smart?"
Meng Jianguo: "Your research will never produce results. If you continue to delay, the seventh district will fall."
Qin Haidao: "As long as you don't dig your own grave, there will always be results, General Meng. The Black Death began to break out in the 13th century, and no vaccine has been developed yet."
Meng Jianguo: "You never announce the results. Well, Dr. Qin, I don't think everyone needs to talk about it. I will go back and call all military cadres to hold a meeting and initiate a referendum. plan."
Qin Haidao: "General Meng, the trend of public opinion is not necessarily correct. Even if the whole of China is set on fire, triggering a chain reaction of all countries and carrying out bombing, but as long as there is a nation that doesn't follow your example, the virus will still emerge. Repeated infection... you will be buried with the whole earth!"
Meng Jianguo said happily: "Which country is not willing to bomb? I am happy to help them bomb."
Liu Yan: "..."
Meng Jianguo said coldly: "The mutated virus is infecting animals. You can sit here and wait. When the plants are also infected, they will be buried with them. You are digging your own grave."
Qin Hai: "General Meng, your biology teacher in high school must not have told you the difference between plants and animals."
Liu Yan suddenly asked: "Here is the string?"
Qin Hai immediately frowned and said, "How do you know?"
In an instant Liu Yan understood that the strange feeling he had earlier was due to the blue light on this floor.
"I sensed it." Liu Yan said, "It's repelling me."
Qin Hai was quiet for a while, and then said: "Tell me about your feelings."
He turned around and turned on a button, the wall behind him became completely transparent, and a cloud of blue light was suspended in the center of the observation room.
Liu Yan: "It's...very annoying to me. I saw it in the biochemical laboratory of the United Front Work Department, and I didn't want to stay for a moment. I also dreamed about it in my dreams, but it was very... gentle at that time, I don't know why."
"The two extremes of the virus string summoning and the earth string summoning..." Qin Hai narrowed his eyes slightly, and murmured: "You stand in the tug-of-war camp between the earth consciousness and the extraterrestrial invaders... Have you ever been vaccinated?"
Liu Yan nodded, keeping these two nouns in mind.
"The string is the soul?" Liu Yan said.
"There is no such thing as a soul." Qin Hai said, "Another word, consciousness."
Liu Yan said: "I also feel something similar to an electric current, like a radio station calling..."
Qin Haidao: "That's the call of the virus. And the blue light you see is the consciousness of the earth. The two are completely opposite, because you have a vaccine in your body, so our home planet thinks you've surrendered to the enemy". will repel you."
Liu Yan didn't quite understand, Qin Hai said, "What's your name? Why are you here?"
Qin Hai glanced at Meng Jianguo. Meng Jianguo had an innocent expression on his face. In fact, he didn't know what was going on. He turned and walked away to admire the vase in the corner.
Liu Yan said: "I won't tell you."
Qin Hai: "..."
Liu Yan: "What about you? Why are you here?"
Qin Hai: "Because the academicians are all engaged in scientific research, it is impossible for them to waste time talking to the military."
Liu Yan nodded in understanding, and said, "You are very troubled."
Qin Haidao: "What is the relationship between you two?"
Meng Jianguo said indifferently: "He is my son."
Qin Hai raised his eyebrows suspiciously, looking at Meng Jianguo.
"Oh—" Qin Hai suddenly realized, and when he looked at Liu Yan again, there was a look of understanding in his eyes.
Liu Yan knew right away that Qin Hai was thinking wrongly, thinking of himself and Meng Jianguo as "that kind of" father-son relationship - Zhang Min and Cassia Ming.
Liu Yan couldn't explain it, and asked: "What is the polarity that the survival instinct rejects... and merges with the earth's strings?"
Qin Haidao: "You don't understand even if I say it, you may be affected, can you cooperate with us to conduct an investigation?"
Meng Jianguo turned and walked over, Liu Yan said: "I don't want to be a guinea pig."
Qin Hai: "There is absolutely no danger to your life."
Liu Yan stood up and said, "No, my dad is rushing back to launch a referendum, and I have to count the votes for him."
Qin Hai: "Let's talk about the conditions, don't go around and around, what are the conditions for cooperating with the investigation?"
Meng Jianguo: "Disclose your research progress to District Six."
Qin Haidao: "I can't decide on this."
Meng Jianguo said: "Then find someone who can make the decision to answer me, otherwise nothing will be discussed."
Qin Hai was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Come with me."
Qin Hai led them down one floor, passed through the crowded laboratory, asked Meng Jianguo and Liu Yan to wait outside, and knocked on the door of an office.
When he opened the door and entered, Liu Yan caught a glimpse through the crack of the door, and there were old men inside.
After Qin Hai said something, someone came out immediately, and Qin Hai said, "It's him."
Immediately five or six people gathered around, Liu Yan frowned, and recognized one of the academicians.
"So you found it?" An old man said, "What's your name?"
Meng Jianguo pressed Liu Yan's shoulder, let him walk behind him, and said, "Misters."
Qin Hai interrupted bluntly: "Master General wants to see the progress of the research."
The old man glanced at Meng Jianguo, and said casually, "I'll give it to you, son, come with me."
Liu Yan suddenly lost his mind. These people didn't pay much attention to Meng Jianguo. They took him into an observation room.
Qin Hai took a deep breath and said, "Cooperate, come, let me check for you."
Meng Jianguo said coldly: "I first want to make sure that he is not in danger, Dr. Qin."
Qin Hai said impatiently: "Don't worry, General, this may be the only restorer, there is no danger."
Liu Yan looked at Meng Jianguo solicitingly, Meng Jianguo nodded, and Qin Hai said, "Take off your clothes and lie flat."
Liu Yan was a little embarrassed, so he took off his clothes and lay down on an instrument. The researchers outside left, and Meng Jianguo saw them observing in another room.
Liu Yan was sent into the comprehensive examination apparatus naked. Qin Hai took the patch and stuck it on his forehead, temple and back of his neck.
Qin Haidao: "Don't be nervous, just talk."
Liu Yan said: "What are earth strings?"
Qin Hai said: "The planet's own risk-removal mechanism, do you know where the human mind is?"
Liu Yan said, "Brain waves?"
Qin Hai said: "No, brain waves are just a form of thinking activity. The thinking process makes brain cells move, and bioelectricity is released to form brain waves. They are appendages of consciousness, not consciousness itself."
Liu Yan: "Where is the consciousness?"
Qin Hai: "Dissect a person's brain, turn out all the cells, and search for the cell membrane, cell fluid, and nucleus one by one. Can you find where the thoughts are? Why do cell activities produce thoughts?"
Liu Yan frowned, Qin Hai said: "Thinking has no boundaries, it is in your mind, but it is not in your brain, because thinking is a string produced by life activities..."
Liu Yan vaguely guessed something in an instant, as if he had insight into a certain mystery of the universe in an instant.
Qin Hai explained: "Relax, don't be nervous, the analyzer is reading your brain waves. All particles are composed of closed string vibrations, and the two-dimensional closed curve moves to form a three-dimensional space, which together with time constructs our world. The world. Strings are a wonderful thing, which by itself only exists in two dimensions...”
Liu Yan said: "So thoughts can never be found! Because it is not in the same dimension as our world!"
Qin Hai nodded and said: "Don't get excited, you can't analyze it, you can only analyze it with psychological experience. This is the core topic of the current research in the seventh area. The earth string is the most ancient consciousness of the earth. It is different from our way of thinking. …”
Liu Yan said: "The earth also has a brain like a human?"
Qin Hai said: "No, but do you think that there is no consciousness without the mammalian brain?"
Liu Yan didn't answer, and Qin Hai said: "Why do spiders weave webs, why do bees dance, birds migrate, earthworms dig soil... even viruses, viruses have no brains, it's really gone. But when it meets the host cell Why does it automatically absorb, replicate, assemble, release its own progeny viruses, self-reproduce, and more and more?"
Liu Yan said: "This is innately determined, in heredity..."
Qin Hai said: "This is the string. It exists in all the genetic fragments, but it is not there. You know it exists, but you can't find it in the two-dimensional space. The vast string constitutes the matrix of group consciousness. Biology It is called "instinct" or reflexive activity in science, and the use of consciousness in physics is called superstring theory. The surviving physicists finally proved the principle of grand unification in 2013 when the earth strings appeared."
Liu Yan said: "What does this have to do with... the tide of zombies?"
Qin Hai took a deep breath and replied: "The earth is like a human being, and the blue light is white blood cells. When there is a catastrophe that is about to cause destruction, the earth string will start to avoid danger by itself, so as not to be destroyed by this catastrophe. .”
Liu Yan said: "Some people say this is a self-cleaning."
Qin Haidao: "No, that's not the case. The consciousness of the planet is completely different from that of human beings. We cannot use our human thinking to understand it... Humans are used to thinking that if something has a bad influence on me, it must be eliminated. But the planet itself It doesn’t think like that, or in other words, it doesn’t think in the usual sense at all, it doesn’t actively move, so it doesn’t think about it.”
"The earth string is one of the ancient strings in the universe. It has existed for billions of years, but human thought is gradually established and regulated with social civilization, and its lifespan is only tens of thousands of years. It is impossible for you to successfully speculate based on human thought The thought of the universe, because it has existed longer and vastly than humans. Human beings are nothing to the entire universe. Earth strings existed at the moment the universe was formed, when all particles were still in their most primitive state of."
"Just as a baby can never understand what adults are thinking, we humans will never be able to understand what the parent star that has existed for 4.6 billion years is thinking."
"Besides, the expression form of strings is not only thoughts, but gravitational waves are also a form of expression of strings. They are spontaneously combined according to the consciousness of the planet, and they are ever-changing. They can form anything they want to be. For example, throwing strings in the blue light makes them form. The gravitational field, like invisible chains and hooks, can draw all the corpses together."
"Or separate a part of the string, make them vibrate to form photons, and you will see it, and it will also form electrons, neutrons and protons, and then combine to form a small DNA fragment."
"A string is the smallest unit of all things, like a bunch of scattered building blocks, which are both consciousness and parts. Try to imagine that consciousness builds itself up to form everything—including atoms and molecules, forces and quarks, and electric charges, which further Consists of viruses, vaccines, dna, and the mass consciousness matrix attached to tens of millions of dna fragments."
"If it is interested in forming a single-celled organism, the single-celled organism will live immediately..."
"Life." Liu Yan tremblingly said: "This is the origin of life..."
Qin Hai: "Yes, absolutely right, that's why all biologists can only use 'living' things as materials to make 'living' things, but can never use 'dead' things to make 'living' things .Suppose you synthesize a group of artificial dna, then make a cell, inject it, it will not move at all, because it has no life."
"This is the ultimate mystery of the existence of life, the biological application of superstring theory, and the grand unification theorem of all disciplines."
"How many strings are there in this world?" Liu Yan was in extreme shock, and asked again: "Will the strings in the Blu-ray be used up?",
"Infinity." Qin Hai said: "This is life itself. It is not matter, but the basic unit that makes up all matter. It cannot even be called a 'thing', and the dimensions are different."
"Einstein proposed the ether hypothesis, which was rejected by himself in the end. In fact, he was right about one thing—the basic unit that constitutes the world is infinite."
"And Aristotle proposed metaphysics, which was rejected by Hegel in the end, but he was right about one thing—the Creator is in all things."
"You shouldn't be able to understand it, as long as you know it's endless."
Liu Yan nodded slowly, frowned and said, "Then the string itself is what constitutes this virus? Why don't they decompose automatically? End this disaster?"
Qin Hai said again: "Do you know where the virus came from?"
Liu Yan said: "Ocean currents, things that were in the ice layer a long time ago."
Qin Hai nodded and said: "The virus released by the greenhouse effect, the string that is not controlled by the consciousness of the planet, where do you think it came from?"
Liu Yan was quiet, and Qin Hai said: "This kind of thing is not native. In other words, our world, including everything in the world, has the consciousness of the planet, so we are a part of the earth. But the virus is not, it may come from Extragalactic galaxies, or higher-dimensional cosmic spaces, are not affected by the earth's strings."
"So the immune function of the planet itself is completely opposite to the huge disaster caused by this virus, so it began to gradually remove the virus carrier."
Liu Yan said: "Ox Complex..."
Qin Haidao: "Yes, to be honest, this is a contest between the extraterrestrial virus and the earth itself. The virus follows the genetic instinct in the genes constructed by another set of strings, which we call virus strings. It may intend to reproduce and infect continuously. Finally turn the earth into a huge morgue. Loot all the resources of the earth, parasitize and take the life of the earth."
"According to the comprehensive report, the animals are infected one by one, the plants may be next, and when the plants are finished, it may be the turn of the microbes..."
Liu Yan: "..."
Qin Hai said: "But we have also discovered a situation-although the earth string cannot directly eliminate the virus string in this war, it can affect other infected bodies, promote them to produce antibodies, and fight against the virus. Now we are looking for evolution. new antibodies after the test. Such people are called restorers.”
"Why don't you call everyone over for an inspection?" Liu Yan said.
Qin Haidao: "The inspection is very difficult. We usually only check on people who have seen the string. If it is a restorer, then it must be able to sense the existence of the string, because it has been modified by the string, so it shows certain characteristics... The restorer doesn’t even have to be a person, it could be an animal, a tree, it’s totally uncertain. The restorer must have the premise of being able to be influenced and transformed by the earth’s strings... It may also be a person, but has been eaten by zombies. "
"What if I'm eaten?" Liu Yan suddenly felt absurd.
"Then we can only ask God." Qin Hai said: "We can't even confirm whether there were one or more restorers in this world in the past... Maybe it's more straightforward to ask the earth string, ask it to reform I, generate antibodies, and inject my antibodies to everyone."
Liu Yan said: "Do I have antibodies on my body?"
Qin Hai looked up at the reading meter, and murmured: "It is theoretically possible, and this is the first case of spiritual evolution... I would rather meet someone who can communicate with the earth string and read all the information in it. When the time is up, You can get up."
The reading meter reset to zero, there was a buzzing sound, and the central large computer began to calculate. Liu Yan put on his clothes and came out, and waited for a while with Meng Jianguo in the lounge.
Finally the scholars dispersed, Qin Hai opened the door and came in, holding a few thin sheets of paper, and made a gesture of invitation.
"Unfortunately, you are not the person we are looking for." Qin Haidao: "Your brain wave frequency band does not match the earth string or the virus string. It should be a new case to be slightly affected, and it is a common phenomenon that vaccines affect the brain. There is nothing else in your body except the v antibody. It is basically the same as all the experimental subjects who have received the vaccine. Different from those special forces, you belong to another evolutionary way, maybe it is intelligent? There is still some reference value .”
Meng Jianguo was relieved.
"That's good." Meng Jianguo nodded.
"That's good?" Qin Hai laughed, shook his head and said, "General Meng, you are really selfish."
Meng Jianguo said: "Thinking of the soldiers who died last month, I suddenly feel that I should be more selfish."
Qin Hai pushed his glasses, threw the four pieces of paper on the coffee table, and said, "This is what you want. We still refuse to sign the resolution of the Long Night Project, because we are only one step away from success."
Meng Jianguo said: "But sometimes it takes hundreds or even thousands of years to get away from this one step."
Qin Hai didn't argue any more, and sent them to the elevator.
Qin Hai suddenly said: "General Meng, you are a scum, I thought you were only interested in women, you don't want to send your lover to the seventh district..."
Meng Jianguo said: "You are too rude, Dr. Qin Hai, he is not my lover."
Qin Hai said: "Do you know how you got the vaccine on your body, Liu Yan?"
"How come?" Liu Yan frowned.
Meng Jianguo said coldly: "Dr. Qin Hai, today's conversation is very pleasant, goodbye."
The elevator door opened, and Meng Jianguo and Liu Yan entered the elevator. Qin Hai said outside the elevator: "The v vaccine uses the human body itself as a culture medium. After the human beings used as the culture medium produce antibodies, they will die soon. In each tube of vaccine, A human life. So worth four thousand ounces of gold."
Liu Yan: "..."
The elevator door closed, and the feeling of weightlessness made Liu Yan spin his head.
"What he said is true?" Liu Yan asked in disbelief.
Meng Jianguo didn't answer, and buried himself in the reports, which summarized almost all the research progress of the seventh district since the outbreak of the zombie wave.
Liu Yan: "Where are those people who are the training medium?!"
Meng Jianguo said: "Don't listen to what he said, now it is cultivated with animals, because the virus mutates and is suitable for animals. The price of vaccines will be lower in the future, and the effect will be greatly reduced. This information is very important... The Seventh District is indeed experimenting with a new type of vaccine."
Liu Yan tremblingly said: "That is to say... Human life has been used to cultivate antibodies before... How many people are there?"
Meng Jianguo replied in a deep voice: "Liu Yan, I thought you could understand me. Why did you bring me instead of Meng Feng? That's why."
Liu Yan didn't speak, and said after a while: "I'm sorry, Dad."
Meng Jianguo said: "Everything today is confidential, I believe you will not tell anyone, including Meng Feng."
Liu Yan and Meng Jianguo looked at each other for a moment, then nodded.
Meng Jianguo: "I got a very precious report. This report has guiding significance for future military plans. Thank you, Liu Yan."
"Thousands of people are dying at every moment, and more people will be saved because of it. You have to learn to be stronger. Some people will actively pursue responsibility and bear the consequences of their decisions. Their Life and death are in your own hands, just like the hero Wen Qige. When you are alive, you don’t care about life, and when you sacrifice, you regard death as home."
"Which one would you like to be?"
June 2, 2013.
This is the first time in my life that I feel that my brain is completely insufficient, and I know what has been buried in the seventh district. Some sense of truth, it feels so shocking.
In contrast, the conflict between the army and the Seventh District is no longer a big deal. They briefly reached an agreement to temporarily postpone the long night plan, leaving time for the Seventh District to find someone who can communicate with the earth string, or to bring The restorer of the engineered antibody.
This person must have a certain spiritual ability, maybe be able to talk to the earth string.
Will he die? I dare not ask, I have been vaccinated, and the life of another stranger flows in my veins.
When Lai Jie received the report, all K3 members were sent out again to organize the supply of a new member of the Hurricane Team. He was sitting opposite me and looked unreliable. It is said that he was not a soldier.
The helicopter first took us back to Jinan Airport, and after getting back the base vehicle, we went north to the three northeastern provinces to start the search and rescue.
Lai Jie also received an A-level mission, and he had to make a plan based on the situation after arriving at the local area. It is said that a certain American scientist escaped with very important things, and fled all the way from Eastern Siberia to Heilongjiang Province. Hide from zombies and continue his experiments.
No one knows what he looks like. The Russian side blocked the news. Zheng Feihu said that the content of his experiment is very important, and he must do everything possible to bring him back.
Meng Feng felt that my behavior was a bit strange, and repeatedly asked his father what he did to me...
"Hello..." The man on the other side said, "My name is Bai Xiaodong."
Meng Feng: "You don't need to write this too, Liu Yan! What does the previous paragraph mean? What is the life of a stranger?"
Liu Yan: "Can you stop peeking at my diary all day?!"
Meng Feng: "I'm asking you formally now, where did my dad take you..."
Bai Xiaodong: "You..."
Liu Yan: "Are you still jealous of your father?"
Meng Feng: "You just have to tell me where you went... Is it so difficult?!"
Liu Yan: "We didn't go anywhere at all, we just stayed in his office all afternoon chatting very happily."
Meng Feng: "Save it, can you and my dad have something to talk about?!"
Liu Yan: "Then why don't you change the answer you want? Your dad sat at his desk and let me hide under the desk. We did some leisure activities at noon... By the way, his military boots are very shiny ! Much cleaner than yours!"
Meng Feng: "..."
Lai Jie said: "Stop talking nonsense, get on the plane! Xiaodong, are you jumping parachuting? Put on your seat belt..."
Meng Feng: "Just wait and see!"
Liu Yan: "You too!"
The cab announcement sounded: "Everyone ready? Let's go—"
Bai Xiaodong: "Hi everyone, Captain..."
Liu Yan: "Why is it you again?"
Pilot: "It's you again! How did you feel when you skydive last time! Did you have a good shot? Let's go!"
Bai Xiaodong: "Why do you all know each other, can I introduce myself..."
The helicopter propellers started to advance, and the deafening roar overwhelmed Bai Xiaodong's voice. The white clouds scattered in the gentle wind, the vast sea was tumbling with the color of indigo, and in the center of Lost Paradise, the electric tower in the seventh district was shining with sunlight.
The Hurricane team left the shelter again, went to the virus-contaminated continent, and embarked on an unknown journey.
