A millennium ago

Su Jing stayed on the second floor and didn't come down, He Peng didn't go out, he really wanted to take a walk outside, he really wanted to go to other small buildings to go around, and he wanted to know what was hidden in this valley!

But he didn't push open the door, just stood quietly in front of the window, staring at the dense forest in the distance, and in the shadow of that forest there might be Xinyi.

"Xinyi, I'm sorry, I'll take you away. ”

Squeak ...... The door was pushed open, and the bullet rushed in.

"Xiao He has everything you want ready, let's go, follow me to the laboratory. As soon as the old man entered the door, he pulled He Peng out.

Su Jing ...... Do you want to go together?" He Peng asked hesitantly, his attitude much more modest than in the morning, although this humility was a depressing volcano.

"Oh, of course, seeing that this old man of mine is really eyeless, Su Jing called her to go with her, she will be your assistant in the future, how about it......? Roar ......"

The old man laughed.

Su Jing took the initiative to appear on the stairs.

The laboratory was not far away, just at the edge of the complex, a two-story fortress made of pure stone.

The reason why it is called a fortress is because He Peng saw a gun barrel sticking out of the small window at the top of the second floor, which was the kind of airborne machine gun mounted on an infantry vehicle or helicopter.

Noticing He Peng's gaze, the old man smiled: "Don't mind if it's not aimed at you, those women love to tinker with these when they have nothing to do, alas, it's still the women outside who are gentle and ......" The old man suddenly closed his mouth, shook his head and opened the door of the laboratory.

He Peng was a little surprised, not because there was a lock, but because there was electricity! I didn't see the power generation equipment, let alone the huge roar of the diesel generator.

Walking into the laboratory, there is a corridor as bright as day, and a row of LED lights emitting a miserable white light runs through the corridor at the top.

The corridors are flanked by heavy steel doors, mostly locked.

Walking through some of the hidden doors, you can see a figure shaking inside.

"Oh, this is the beneficial fungus cultivation room, the front one is the new variety nursery room, and the quantum bombardment laboratory, the electromagnetic interference greenhouse......"

The old man muttered as he walked, and those unfamiliar and familiar terms made He Peng's heart startled, and he couldn't help asking: "Does the farmer need to make it the same as the nuclear weapons test base to grow crops?"

"Haha, why don't you need to? We are doing the most cutting-edge technology, if human beings want to restore the glory of the ancient gods, how can it be possible if they don't take some extreme measures to stimulate the resurrection of the silent genes inside the plants......" The old man suddenly stopped, "Ah, here, here is my special laboratory, everything you want is inside." He lifted his shirt, took an antique key from his waist and stabbed it through the keyhole, clicked, and opened a door, which was still a door inside.

It was a high-tech door, with a hint of cyan grain in the gray. Let He Peng feel like he is in a science fiction movie.

The old man fixed his eyes on a small dark red hole in the door. There was a few soft clicks, and the gate valve opened.

"Oh, it's on, I'll give you a briefing. ”

Entering the house, He Peng was shocked by the scene in front of him.

This is a very large windowless and fully enclosed laboratory.

The four walls are shrouded in crystals, and the inside of them is filled with an unknown viscous liquid, and the branches, trunks, and roots of the trees are strangely dipped in the liquid.

Some trees have disgusting tumors on their trunks, while others have animal-like blood vessels......

In the center of the laboratory there are two rows of consoles, with unknown machines on one side, some of which are still running with a humming sound.

He Peng glanced back at Su Jing, her face showed a look of fear, disgust and disgust, He Peng gently hugged her and stroked her back.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. ”

Su Jing nodded, glanced cautiously at the earth bullet, and walked in quickly.

"Hehe, shocked, it's inevitable to see it for the first time, I was not as good as you when I first came here. The old man looked at the plants in the wall as if he were looking at a beloved child, and his tone was full of love.

He Peng couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you get these?"

"No, I only came here after I retired from college, and when I saw these things, I realized that my past research was ridiculous, like a kindergarten child's game, and these are the works of genius, the way to discover the hidden secrets of the Creator. ”

"You, are you really a university professor?" Su Jing also said in surprise: "Then how can you go along with them......" She covered her mouth violently.

"It's okay, there are no outsiders here, they don't know what to say, you want to say, how can I be in the same stream with them, right?"

The old man sighed: "That's what I asked my mentor back then, and I didn't really join until I witnessed many miracles. ”

The old man looked at He Peng: "I hope that one day you can continue my career." ”

He Peng pursed his lips, with a slight disdain on his face.

"Of course, it's all up to your choice, after all, you're still young and have a lot of good life. ”

The old man walked to the test bench and opened a cabinet door under the test bench, where many file boxes were neatly stacked.

"These are the information of the jujube tree, you take a look first, don't be in a hurry to take your time, understand the past clearly in order to grasp the future, I am in the laboratory next door, if you need anything, you can call me. After the old man finished speaking, he left, leaving He Peng and Su Jing to stay in the laboratory that he regarded as his life.

He Peng saw that Su Jing was very uncomfortable here, so he said, "Why don't I send you back to the house first, it's a little disgusting here." ”

Su Jing shook her head, squeezed out a smile and said, "No, the place with you is the most comfortable, and I feel at ease when I look at you." She glanced at the wall, "It doesn't look so scary now, it's just that some broken branches don't jump out and bite." ”

"Is it really okay? Or I'll take the information back and read it." ”

Su Jing's eyes lit up, and then she shook her head firmly: "Don't, just watch it here, delay the time back and forth, finish it early and take me and Xinyi away early." ”

"Well, tell me anything, and I'll protect you. ”

"Hmm"

He Peng squatted down to look at the file boxes in the cabinet, each box had a number, marked with the time and name.

The earliest file box turned out to be BC, He Peng couldn't help but wonder, didn't the old man say that the farmer had lived in seclusion for more than a thousand years, but this has been more than 2,000 years.

He Peng pulled out the file box, and it read: 134-165 BC, Xu Shan.

When I opened the box, there was a silk book wrapped in yellow thickness. After 2,000 years, the silk book has not been damaged and clean as before, which shows that the collectors of the past generations have cherished this book.

He Peng carefully spread out the silk book, a silk silk two feet square, on which the official script was neatly written.

Lishu has many similarities with modern simplified characters, and He Peng mostly knew and half-read and half-guessed to read it.

"In the past, Emperor Wu sent Fang Shi to the Great Wilderness to find the Queen Mother of the West, but it was unsuccessful, Fang Shi did not return, there were Fang Shi Heizi Yi returned, Emperor Wu welcomed, Zi Yiyan did not see the Queen Mother of the West, but he was given the elixir of life by his maid.

Emperor Wu was very happy, and asked the doctor to look at it, and the doctor said that it was 'Tai Sui', and eating it could live forever.

Emperor Wu gave the doctor poisoned wine, searched for Ziyi and did not see Tai Sui, and killed countless Fangshi angrily.

For more than ten years, the farmer's flower had no way to save a traveler, and he was given a relic saying that the food of 'Tai Sui' could live forever.

'Tai Sui' is one foot long, its shape is like a ball, many wrinkles, some farmers take a piece of it, and eat it suddenly.

For more than ten years, Hua Linbo, the son of Hua Wudao, planted 'Tai Sui' under the jujube tree in the courtyard, and 'Tai Sui' died with the tree. Hua Lin Bo called it a tree that is born after death, and regarded it as a treasure of the farmer, and took care of the ......"

He Peng was very surprised to see this, he didn't expect that the jujube tree to have such a miraculous experience, just the thickness of the bowl mouth actually lived for more than 2,000 years, what a miracle!

Looking further back, there is nothing surprising about how the ancients cultivated the tree, what time of day, and what kind of strange fertilizer was applied, until Xu Shan, the person who recorded this file, appeared.

"I entered the farmhouse and obtained the treasure of the tree of death and afterlife, my predecessors have cultivated it for decades without seeing the strange, but I think that the tree of death and life has not grown for decades, only the rise and fall of the leaves is the strangeness, it can be seen that this tree has been immortal, immortal and immortal. I am inspired to investigate the secret of immortality!"

Xu Shan used the method of rhizome grafting to cultivate new trees, and successfully cultivated the second generation of seedlings, but the new seedlings survived, and the old trees died.

Xu Shan vomited blood and died.

This thin silk was formed by Xu Shan's son according to Xu Shan's records during his lifetime.

He Peng was a little surprised, since Xu Shan is a farmer, he will definitely not hurt the vitality of the old tree when he takes roots and cultivates new seedlings, why does the new seedling live and the old tree dies, could it be that this tree really has immortality, so it only has one life, unlike ordinary trees that can cultivate new trees?

I couldn't help but pull out the next box of files, this box of files has nothing new to tell the story of Xu Shan's descendants in the late Eastern Han Dynasty in order to avoid the war, with new seedlings constantly tossing and turning, the only thing worth mentioning is that after the seedlings are raised, the leaves fall every year but do not grow, so for decades.

When He Peng saw that the farmers assisted Shu in developing the Southern Barbarian Land during the Three Kingdoms period, Su Jing suddenly said: "He Peng should have dinner, let's go to the restaurant to eat." ”

He Peng was stunned, and he was a little reluctant to hold the file.

Su Jing was winking at him, "There will be a lot of people coming at dinner, and the sergeants will also take turns to come back to rest." ”

He Peng suddenly understood that Su Jing was telling him that it was possible to see Wang Xinyi at dinner time, and immediately threw the file box aside without hesitation.

"Oh, as soon as you say I'm really hungry, let's go, let's eat. I couldn't wait to pull Su Jing out of the laboratory, and when I arrived outside the door, many of the previously open laboratories had been locked, and the door next door suddenly creaked open, and the earth bullet hammered out of the waist.

"Haha, the old man is going to get you some food, since you're out, let's go eat together. Dinner here is still very generous, and you can see a lot of beautiful women!"

The old man teased without doing anything.
