This night, it was Lin Shuo's turn to watch the night himself.
Lin Yingxue had already guarded her last night, and kept her daughter from sleeping for two consecutive nights. This was somewhat suspected of child abuse, and Lin Shuo was not so hard-hearted.
Then he found that Miao Chengyun didn't seem to be going to sleep, so he persuaded him to go to bed quickly so that he wouldn't lose energy the next day.
As a result, Miao Chengyun said indifferently: "This shows that your realm, Lin Shuo, still has some gaps with mine."
"Huh?" Lin Shuo was very surprised. "Why, you have cultivated so much that you don't need to sleep?"
"Sleep, of course I still need it." Miao Chengyun said, "But my sleep is not for resting the brain, but only for the metabolism of the body, and I can control the quality of sleep, so ordinary people sleep at least six or seven hours a day. I only need an hour."
Lin Shuo understood it when he heard this, and said, "You are Ma Yixian's method. The Yun family's combination of spirituality and medical knowledge has a greater element of medical knowledge. What does it have to do with the level of the two of us?"
"Of course it has something to do with it." Miao Chengyun said, "The cultivation talents of the two of us are actually about the same. In the end, which one is stronger and which one is weaker is a matter of working years.
With my current way of life, it is not a big problem to live four to five hundred years old, but you are only a hundred years old at most, so what can we compare
Besides, a hundred years later, I, Miao Chengyun, are still in full bloom, and you, Lin Shuo, are already dead in the coffin. At that time, I said that I beat you to the ground, who would dare to refute? "
"Your father will retort, you will definitely not be able to survive him." Lin Shuo laughed, "And Di Lan, this is also an endless lifespan."
"Oh, that's right." Miao Chengyun seemed to have remembered something, and said, "Dy Lan, the goddess of Zarafshan's operating room, why did you let her do administrative work, she is obviously a front-line scientific research material."
"The reason is what I said just now." Lin Shuo said, "She will live a long time."
"Oh, I got it." Miao Chengyun said without any hesitation, "You are afraid that she will become an authority in the front line in the future and live a very long life, which will hinder technological innovation in related categories."
"Dylan's lifespan is long because the cells in her body, Yama, can help her repair them, and the renewal of cells is endless." Lin Shuo said, "However, there are still some cells in the human body that will not be renewed for a lifetime. central nervous cells.
So once Di Lan gets older, he will still maintain a youthful and beautiful appearance, but his temperament will converge with the elderly, and he will become more and more stubborn, which is inevitable.
So she does administrative work and is constrained by her establishment, and she will retire when she reaches the age.
However, scientific research is still essentially a handicraft industry at present, and there is no such thing as retirement. As long as the energy allows, scientists will basically work until the day they die.
If she does this, although she is powerful now, it will be a hindrance in the future.
So there is an old saying, to grow old and not die is to be a thief.
You, Miao Chengyun, follow Ma Yixian's old path, you have to be careful, don't make him look like a ghost. "
"I understand what you mean." Miao Chengyun said, "Actually, in terms of biological evolution, human lifespan is the result of evolution, and all aspects of the body and the surrounding social conditions are matched with lifespan.
Once we really want to live forever, there are many problems and challenges.
But I don't need to worry about it for the time being, there is an old man in front of me, I just copy his answer, and by the way, I can give you another answer so that you can stay with Dylan forever. "
"Pull it down." Lin Shuo shook his head, "I'm different from you. I'm a hunter. My pursuit is to fight to the death in the mountains and forests. If I live to be hundreds of years old, I have to be supported to walk tremblingly. How can I still live?" What's the meaning."
"Hey, it seems that we have different ways of thinking about each other." Miao Chengyun sighed, "I'll be bored after you die, and you won't be able to stop me from doing evil."
"If I'm gone, there will be Yingxue and the others, and if Yingxue is gone, there will still be their children." Lin Shuo said, "If you, Miao Chengyun, really become a devil in the future, don't worry, the Lin family will definitely take care of you. "
"Then now that I'm teaching Yingxue how to fight, am I digging a hole for myself?" Miao Chengyun asked.
"It's okay." Lin Shuo stretched out his hand and patted Miao Chengyun's shoulder, "You are an expert at making death, and you will succeed once in a while."
…
Everyone around was asleep. In the first half of the night, the two brothers looked forward to the future in a very "harmonious" way. In the second half of the night, after confirming that everyone around them was asleep, the two finally pulled back their rambling conversation.
"Information is still not enough." Miao Chengyun said, "What is in the river, have you counted it?"
"I don't know." Lin Shuo said, "I've neither seen nor smelled it, the ghost knows what it is."
"But now that the river is blocked, it must have been caused by something that happened before. What exactly is it?"
"It's missing." Lin Shuo said, "According to Cao Mian, it was the disappearance of people and cargo. Later, the patrol boats of the armies of various countries were dispatched, loaded with live ammunition, and never returned, and no news came back. Very strange."
"It doesn't sound like something did it." Miao Chengyun said, "If a beast of different species could swallow a ship in one gulp, how big would it be.
Let's not talk about whether the river here can accommodate it, but only say that such a big thing must have signs when it comes up from the bottom of the river.
Ordinary people and merchants are fine. When the army patrols, at least they have time to report such signs before the patrol boat is attacked.
There is no news at all, which is obviously wrong. "
Lin Shuo nodded: "So at present, there are two possibilities.
The first possibility is not a thing, but a person.
Talents know how to block the news before attacking, and the wild beasts often don't understand this.
The second possibility is a highly intelligent beast alien, such as a sea monster. "
"The sea monster?" Miao Chengyun asked, "The kind where women can yell and men can spit blisters?"
"Yes." Lin Shuo nodded, "It's the kind that Borneo almost killed you last time."
"That kind of IQ is not high." Miao Chengyun looked contemptuous, "I didn't succeed at that time. If you try it now, I can pick all the sea monsters by myself."
"There are stupid people and smart people, and the sea monster is the same." Lin Shuo said, "Anyway, your father met a group of powerful ones on the west coast of South America, and he almost capsized in the gutter. You can judge for yourself."
"Oh." Miao Chengyun said, "Then if this is the case, of course we don't care. Chu Hongyi can protect himself, but Yingxue Wei Xingshan and Trorenzo are at risk."
"So you think it's better to meet someone?" Lin Shuo asked rhetorically.
"Then it might as well be a sea monster." Miao Chengyun shook his head, "In this world, only a few people are the scariest."
"This knowledge, you must teach Lin Yingxue later." Lin Shuo said, "If I say it, she may not take it to heart."
"Come on."
…
After dawn, the group set off according to last night's plan.
Lin Shuo and Miao Chengyun, the strongest among them, protected the team in the middle, and then Chu Hongyi guarded the captain Lin Yingxue.
Lin Shuo used the leader of the hunting gate and the authority of his father and daughter to order this formation directly over the hunting team leader, so that the little girl would not go ahead and open the way. Lin Shuo knew that she could do it.
There are two pioneers, and Lin Shuo is one of them. He is mainly responsible for the perception of the surrounding situation, and Wei Xingshan is responsible for the specific route selection.
Because Old Wei has a lot of experience in this area, he knows what routes Lin Yingxue and Trorenzo can handle, because relatively speaking, these three are in the category of ordinary people, like Lin Shuomiao, Miao Chengyun, Chu Hongyi, That's the monster.
As the saying goes, you can't leave your mouth and your fists, but you have to exercise regularly if you have any ability. In the past few years, Wei Xingshan can see that life is too superior.
The reaction of the brain is still there, and the explosive power of the body is still there, but the physical strength is obviously not keeping up.
Old Wei was chopping the thorns and shrubs in front of him with a knife, panting and sweating profusely, Lin Shuo who was following behind him had to walk with his nose covered.
The smell of sweat is too smoky.
Lin Shuo wanted to open his mouth to mock him, but swallowed the words again.
Can't say anything about others, he, Old Wei, has made it clear long ago that he will not be a hunter after retiring. This time he came out by accident, and it was also to take care of his father and daughter.
"Okay, you go to the back and rest for a while." Lin Shuo stepped forward and said, "Give me the knife."
Wei Xingshan didn't try to be brave, he handed the knife to Lin Shuo, and he went a few steps behind to drink water and wipe off his sweat.
In fact, with the capabilities of Lin Shuo and Miao Chengyun, it is easy to take a group of people on the Xunfeng flight. There is still an aviation restriction in the country, so it doesn't matter here.
It's just that this time I brought my daughter into the mountains, everything should look good, the little girl can't run fast, it's not good to fly first.
Trekking in the mountains and forests is a compulsory course for hunters. It is not only a matter of quick feet, but also a matter of will quality.
At this time Wei Xingshan said: "Old Lin, do you still remember, the time outside Xing'an Mountains, I followed you and Miss Ann, and ran for more than a hundred miles in the mountains.
You guys are fine, just hurry, and I will be miserable. While running, my lungs are about to explode, and at the same time I have to take care of the few mercenaries behind my buttocks. "
"I still have the face to talk about it." Lin Shuo muttered, "Run so slowly."
"If I was as fast as you, where would you have the opportunity to spend half the night in someone else's thatched cottage?" Wei Xingshan said with a smile, "I guess that's when you two started."
"Bullshit." Lin Shuo insisted, not very confident.
Old Wei was right, that night, it was a bit hazy, after all, he slept on the girl's lap.
"Then what." Wei Xingshan said again, "Yingxue is slowly becoming a big girl now, who is the future son-in-law of the Lin family, have you thought about it?"
"What age is this? Marriage is still arranged by parents. Isn't it all free love?" Lin Shuo said, "Besides, if she dares to fall in love in recent years, I will break her legs."
"Hey, then it will be fine if we discuss it in advance." Wei Xingshan lowered his voice and said softly, "My boy, think about it."
"Don't make trouble, your son Wei Liangchen is only five years old, much younger than Yingxue." Lin Shuo shook his head like a rattle, "She grew up with her two younger brothers, and when she got married in the future, her family will A younger brother, wouldn't that be called helping younger brothers?"
"It's not Wei Liangchen." Wei Xingshan said, "The other one."
"The other one hasn't been born yet." Lin Shuo said, "Isn't your wife just pregnant with a second child?"
"Isn't there another one?" Wei Xingshan was so anxious that he almost stomped his feet behind.
"Oh." Lin Shuo just remembered.
Lao Wei also has a son, which most people don't know about, but he does.
Jin Wenlan borrowed the past, Jin Kunpeng, the future head of the Liemen Jin family.
This is also Lin Shuo's godson, who is about the same age as Lin Yingxue.
The mothers of these two, Jin Wenlan and Di Lan, exchanged ideas on how pregnant women fight.
Speaking of which, Lin Shuo hadn't seen this kid for almost two years.
The Jin family has no male now, so Jin Wenlan treats the boy as a man and takes him to hunt in the mountains and forests since he was seven years old.
It's a pity that Lin Shuo never thought about Wei Xingshan's suggestion before. As for the future son-in-law of the Lin family, he had a vague candidate before, and that was He Yongchang's son He Yunchang.
This red face with red phoenix eyes, tall and majestic and majestic, with a beard on his back at home, saves the statue of Guan Gong.
Now Wei Xingshan said so, it seems that there is another choice, Lin Shuo is a little embarrassed.
Thinking about it again, Lin Shuo felt relieved again, don't be afraid, it's enough for his two daughters to reflect the snow and the moon.
Just thinking about it, Lin Shuo suddenly stopped.
Wei Xingshan was waiting for Lin Shuo's answer, he was so anxious that he didn't pay attention, and almost bumped into him.
"What's wrong?" Old Wei asked.
Lin Shuo raised his nose, and after confirming, he turned his head and said:
"Go and tell the back, there are people in front."
