Thanks to his unreliable brother, Lin Shuo didn't learn of the situation until this invisible thing sneaked into the downstairs of the hotel.
This is imminent.
Fortunately, Lin Shuo made arrangements in advance.
The strongest man next to him in this hunting team, Chu Hongyi, whose cultivation base was only a thread away from the end of human cultivation, was squatting downstairs at the moment.
Without his reminding, Wei Xingshan quickly took out the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Old Chu! The thing is near you!"
"Oh, what are you doing so loudly? You scared me to death." Chu Hongyi's soft voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"This thing may not be visible to the human eye, so be careful!" Wei Xingshan shouted again, louder than before.
"Why panic, I'm blocking the entrance." Chu Hongyi said lightly, "If you have the ability, let it run over me."
Lin Shuo grabbed the walkie-talkie and said, "Chu Hongyi, the strength of the prey is unknown. Don't underestimate the enemy. I'll let Zhang come in to meet you."
"Oh, the boss, you should have arranged this way earlier." Chu Hongyi said, "This guy Zhang Jin has been avoiding me all night, making it boring for me to be downstairs alone."
Lin Shuo rolled his eyes: "Then I'll come down in person."
"Don't, don't, I'm ashamed that you came here in person, chief executive, Zhang Jin is fine." Chu Hongyi shouted, "I want Zhang Jin!"
At this time, Zhang Jin's voice came out from the walkie-talkie: "Chu Hongyi, I'm giving you a face, right? I'll come down now and see what you can do to me."
"Young man is so courageous, it really makes people happy." Chu Hongyi said leisurely.
"What the hell..." Zhang Jin cut off the communication angrily in the middle of speaking.
Miao Chengyun shook his head as he listened, "Lin Shuo, you should be more careful when selecting your team members. What kind of people are these? They are eccentric and don't take hunting seriously at all. Are they worthy of being called hunters?"
Lin Shuo and Wei Xingshan started staring at Mr. Miao.
Among them, Lin Shuo said, "Yeah, I'm also wondering, who are these people?"
"Don't look at me like that." Miao Chengyun understood now, and said, "I'm the only hunter who can sense the existence of that thing. No matter how outrageous I am, you have to bear with it."
"Okay." Lin Shuo had no choice but to suppress his temper and nodded, "Then please tell me, Mr. Miao, where is the thing now?"
"Don't be so impatient, wait a little longer, let this thing move a certain distance." Miao Chengyun said, "The perception is not that precise, it just has a rough position, and I'm not a GPS."
…
At the same time, on the An Lan in Bandar Seri Begawan, Miao Xueping pointed at Miao Guangqi's nose, and greeted her with a spittle.
"You said that you stole sister Yuexin's genes, and it's fine to be a son secretly.
How about you teach your son how to do it
Miao Guangqi, I don't care how many layers of skin you have now, you are just like me, a Miao family inheritance hunter.
Inheritance hunter, in the final analysis, is the word inheritance.
When a son is born, it is enough to just teach him ability, so don't you need to teach him to be a man
Don't you need to teach the basic qualities of a hunter
Look at Cheng Yun's current temperament, he doesn't look like an inheritance hunter.
Diao Erlang pursues those vain things all day long, and he is still so unreliable in his work.
With him like this, why set up another Miao family
I beg you, father and son, to change your surnames. You can create another family name of any kind, just another surname Miao.
The Miao family can't afford to lose this person! "
Miao Guangqi has a very good temper at the moment, because it is really wrong.
Mr. Miao's performance at the scene made the old father's face dull.
He wiped the saliva on his face with his hands, and said with a pleasant face: "Oh, when Cheng Yun was growing up, I was really too busy and neglected to discipline. This child was basically brought up by Xiu'er."
When Miao Xueping heard this, she became even more angry, and her voice rose an octave: "Yun Xiu'er is only one year older than Cheng Yun, you still want to shift the responsibility to her
Also, your behavior is a typical behavior of a child bride, you are so wicked to the core!
I think it's just you as a father, if you teach Miao Chengyun yourself, it will definitely be even more miserable now! "
Miao Guangqi was so scolded that his head drooped, then he glanced to the side and saw Anne.
Mr. Miao really couldn't hold back his face, and said softly: "Girl, please speak for me, stop this shrew."
Anne was also angry at the moment. In her opinion, Senior Brother Cheng Yun really went too far this time.
For hunting such a big event, he not only planned to make false accounts first, but also concealed important information, which now made the entire hunting team very passive.
So the adoptive father asked Anne to speak for him, but Anne was not happy, so she turned her head away: "I think what Auntie said is right."
Miao Guangqi was taken aback for a moment, and sighed: "This is really the water poured out by a married woman. This younger sister who has been handed over since childhood, and the girl who has been spoiled since childhood, are not on my side right now." gone."
"You deserve it, who told you to be incapable of discipline?" Miao Xueping was still there relentlessly.
"Hey?" Miao Guangqi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, pointing at Anne, "Xueping, how do you think Anne is?"
"Nonsense, this is the eldest daughter-in-law of my Lin family, can you be okay?" Miao Xueping said.
"That's right, this is the daughter I raised since I was a child." Miao Guangqi said, "Look at how nice she is, which means that it's not that I can't discipline her well, but that I really don't have time to discipline this child Chengyun..."
"I'll fuck you." Miao Xueping said, "their three children grew up in almost the same environment, Anne is so good, Xiu'er is not bad, but Chengyun has become like this, which shows that you Miao Guangqi It’s not good! You have lost your conscience, can your son get better?”
"I..." Miao Guangqi was at a loss for words, and muttered in a low voice, "It's not just me..."
"Do you still dare to say that sister Yuexin is not good?" Miao Xueping stared, "Miao Guangqi, you are so bold now!"
Miao Guangqi quickly slapped himself lightly: "Okay, okay, I can't plant it well, I can't teach my son well, I admit it, just let me go."
"Hmph!" Miao Xueping tilted her head, too lazy to speak.
Seeing that the fight between the two elders was finally over, Anne asked, "Mentor, Auntie, why can't you see this thing?"
Miao Xueping was stunned, unable to answer, so she could only look at Miao Guangqi.
Seeing that the two women were counting on him again, Miao Guangqi was happy again.
In this regard, dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, and mice give birth to phoenixes that can make holes. The Miao family and his son are actually a virtuous person.
He just loves to show off, especially in front of people he values.
Mr. Miao sat down first, picked up the cup on the table, took a sip of water, raised his head and cleared his throat, and then said leisurely:
"You must know that the world is so big that there are no surprises.
Whether it's Liemen or their Haike Alliance, a lot of insights have indeed been accumulated over the past few thousand years, and most of them have also been recorded in writing.
Coupled with the rapid development of science and technology, detection methods and technologies are constantly enriched, and human vision is also becoming wider and wider.
It can be said that we human beings have seen all of this world, have we fully understood it
That's not even close.
So once something unknown appears, it is a kind of luck for us.
This means that we humans still have room for improvement.
The premise of knowledge lies in exploration, human curiosity... ”
"Stop talking nonsense!" Miao Xueping interrupted impatiently, "Just tell me if you know this thing?"
"I don't know." Miao Guangqi shook his head and drank tea sullenly.
Miao Xueping started to roll up her sleeves to hit someone.
"However, I can analyze and analyze." Miao Guangqi took a sip of tea and continued, "Let me be clear first, what we know about this thing so far.
1. This thing kills people, and the victim should have died within a very short period of time, so there will be a collective loss of contact all at once.
2. This thing locks the air and controls the wind, so it should have special abilities.
3. This thing haunts at night and is invisible to the human eye.
These are three relatively rough pieces of information, but if we look closely, we can still find a connection.
The first loss of contact in Semporna was when tens of thousands of people in the entire city were wiped out.
This situation cannot be explained by the speed at which this thing attacks humans.
No matter how fast it is, tens of thousands of people will die at once.
So combined with its ability to lock the air and control the wind, it must be a large-scale killing mode, such as toxins that use air as the medium of transmission.
Just based on this speculation, what do you think? "
"Seven-colored deer?" Miao Xueping's face changed drastically, "It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"
"It's not a coincidence." Miao Guangqi said, "They are all in Borneo, and at the speed of the seven-color muntjac, Borneo is only a square inch."
"Teacher, what do you mean, what Lin Shuo and the others have met now is the seven-color muntjac?" Anne's face was also very ugly.
"I didn't say that." Miao Guangqi said lightly, "I just said that the means of these two things have the same place.
In fact, I have always suspected that the toxins in the seven-color deer are not native to the seven-color deer.
Because from a biological point of view, since the seven-color muntjac is already an extremely fast species, there is no need for it to evolve this toxin, and its survival strategy is wrong.
And its toxin, the natural antidote is actually something in the sea, a protein in the body of a small fish.
This is very strange.
It is not a coincidence that things in nature have mutual restraint effects, but it is the result of competition in the same environment for a long time.
If you don't restrain yourself from a fatal factor in the environment, you won't be able to survive. This is the law of survival.
Therefore, for any strange poison in the world, there must be an antidote within a hundred steps, and it is not without scientific reason.
And the seven-color muntjac is a land creature, and the small fish, that is, the knucklefish, is a sea creature. This is the biggest environmental difference in nature at present.
Therefore, there must be a medium in the middle.
And this medium that relays the toxin to the seven-color muntjac can move both in the sea and on land.
It affected both the knucklefish and the seven-color muntjac.
As for the extreme speed of the seven-color muntjac, this is not something that can be produced in a natural environment.
This kind of speed cannot be forced by the pure natural environment.
Therefore, the evolutionary cause of this speed is not in the external environment, but in the competition of species, which originates from the inside of the body.
My guess is that it is very likely that it is because of this toxin that the seven-color deer must constantly sprint and run.
Fight this toxin with the rapid rise in body temperature during running and the activation of a specific protein in the fast-metabolic environment of the muscles.
After tens of thousands of years of competition with each other, the two sides have continued to become stronger.
So far, the seven-color muntjac has outperformed the toxin, so even if it is infected by the toxin, it will be fine.
And its current speed has reached the limit of biochemical energy.
That kind of small fish in the sea has much better luck than the seven-color muntjac.
The knucklefish has a short lifespan, a large number of reproductions, and fast iterations, so a special protein was quickly evolved, which saves effort.
It's just that being lazy and saving effort for a while will be a disadvantage in the long run, so the knuckle fish is very weak, and the seven-color muntjac is very strong now. "
After Miao Guangqi's long speech, his mouth was dry, and he lowered his head to drink water again.
Every time he took a sip of the tea in the cup, Miao Guangqi frowned slightly, as if the tea was very bitter.
He is very calm now, and the two women of the Lin family can't sit still.
Anne said: "Then Lin Shuo and the others, aren't they likely to be exposed to toxins tonight?"
"Well, it's more or less the same." Miao Guangqi nodded, "But don't panic, the antidote to the seven-color muntjac poison, that is, the specific protein solvent of the knuckle fish, has been developed by Yang Tuo in batches, and I also use it The airship dropped it, and they had already drunk it.
What I am drinking now is this antidote, do you want to have a bottle too? "
While talking, Miao Guangqi lowered his head and took out two glass bottles from the cabinet under the console, and at the same time explained: "We are on the ship, and the chance of being infected with toxins is relatively low, but is there any harm in drinking this solvent?" Side effects, Yang Tuo's experiment time is not enough, and the sample size is not enough.
So I let Lin Shuo and the others drink it first, as a temporary rescue, and at the same time observe their condition.
You and I suggest to take another look, don’t rush to drink, it’s safer.
Well, we probably figured out how that thing killed people.
I don't know the principle of its ability to lock the air and control the wind, but in terms of function, it should serve to spread toxins.
So, why can't human eyes see this thing, let me analyze it again? "
