Chapter 144: Autopsy
Bonfires, among the wilderness adventurers, are known as "TVs in the jungle".
Once at night, when everyone has nothing to do, they will gather around the bonfire, and the constantly jumping fire light brings not only warmth, but also a sense of security in the dark night.
But if the bonfire is used as a light source for autopsy, then the atmosphere around the bonfire has nothing to do with warmth and security.
The corpse of the tiger was placed on the edge of the bonfire at this moment, because of its huge size, just a corpse, it created the feeling of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The temperature in this forest is not low, and the corpses in this case will soon begin to decompose.
However, the helicopter was "broken" again, and the tissue samples of the giant tiger could not be transported back to the base, so Dylan immediately decided to start an autopsy on the giant tiger on the spot.
There was nothing wrong with her behavior in Lin Shuo's eyes.
Because this giant tiger, judging by its size, should have appeared at the scene of the crime.
If this judgment is true, then the genes of this giant tiger have actually been collected a long time ago.
Therefore, relatively speaking, the significance of autopsy is greater than that of genetic testing.
And for the on-site forensic doctor Dylan, the danger of this autopsy is self-evident.
This is a tiger whose genes have been rewritten by the King of the Mountain Yama, and the behavioral characteristics of the King of the Mountain Yama, the International Biological Research Association has only unveiled the tip of the iceberg so far.
Whether there is a Mountain Yama King in the tiger corpse, or what the Mountain Yama King left in this tiger's body, and whether these biological residues are safe for the human body, no one knows.
So before the autopsy, Dilan gave a ban to all members of the team, including Lin Shuo: exit ten meters and not get close.
This kind of professional advice has always been respected by Lin Shuo.
Because when he hunted himself, he was also such a virtue.
So right now, everyone was ten meters away, looking at Dylan on the other side of the bonfire, unraveling the giant tiger.
This beautiful woman is wearing a one-piece hazmat suit and looks like an astronaut with a scalpel.
At this time, she was completely isolated from the outside world under the protection of protective clothing.
Seeing that this beauty was busy ten meters away, Lin Shuo gave Wei Xingshan a look, and Wei Xingshan hurriedly turned his head over:
"What's the matter?"
"You're trained as an agent, right?" asked Lin Shuo.
"Of course. Wei Xingshan said, "But I'm too tall to be an agent." ”
"Then do you know how to obtain a blood sample without the person's knowledge?" Lin Shuo asked.
"Whose blood sample are you going to take?" Wei Xingshan asked.
"She. Lin Shuo snorted at Di Lan.
"What kind of skills are you Lao Lin, do you still need to ask me about this?" Wei Xingshan said strangely.
"The point is that she can't know. Lin Shuo said, "As long as I do it, the movement will be relatively large." ”
"Hey. Wei Xingshan had a smug look on his face, which meant that you Lin Shuo also had a time to consult me Wei Xingshan.
After a short pause, Wei Xingshan said: "According to the habit of agents, to do this kind of thing, they will use everything they can use, including but not limited to tools, connections, personal emotions, and so on. Our agents are for our country, and they must do things by unscrupulous means, which is called personal damage to small morality, and the country gains great benefits. ”
"It's all nonsense. Lin Shuo rolled his eyes, "Don't give me a lesson, what about the specific method?"
"I'm telling you, it's actually very simple. Wei Xingshan said in a deep voice, "It depends on your old forest, and you are reluctant to put down the capital." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Look. Wei Xingshan glanced at Di Lan, who was working in the distance, "This woman, I've been staring behind her for a while. Judging from my 20 years of experience in Lao Wei's sea of flowers, don't look at her words and deeds are very open, in fact, she is still a chick. ”
Wei Xingshan stopped when he said this, and raised his eyebrows at Lin Shuo.
Lin Shuo frowned: "What do you mean?"
Wei Xingshan snorted and complained, "Your old Lin is usually quite smart, why do you make a fool at such a time?
"It's better to be clear. Lin Shuo looked like he was sincerely seeking advice.
Wei Xingshan lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Hasn't she always wanted to fall in love with you?" Isn't the blood sample just in hand?"
As soon as he finished saying this, Wei Xingshan's ears were A
E grabbed it.
"Hey, hey, hey, pain,......" Wei Xingshan begged for mercy.
Lin Shuo smiled faintly, as if he hadn't seen it.
Wei Xingshan also understood at this time, and shouted, "A."
e Don't you see, this is Lao Lin deliberately digging a pit to bury me!"
"You deserve it. ”A
E said coldly, "You dare to say anything, right?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong. Wei Xingshan hurriedly apologized, "I'll say it well, say it well." ”
"Hmph. ”A
E let go, glanced at Lin Shuo, and didn't say anything more.
"This ......" Wei Xingshan rubbed his ears, thought for a while and said, "You don't care about Lao Lin, I'll give you a blood sample early tomorrow morning." ”
If it was left in normal times, if Wei Xingshan said this, Lin Shuo nodded and it would be over.
But this matter was entrusted by someone, so he asked more: "What are you going to do?"
"Isn't it my responsibility to take care of the food? give her painkillers, I'll get the dosage right, she'll be unconscious soon. Wei Xingshan muttered softly, "People who are fascinated by drugs can't lie on their fronts, otherwise in the case of a deep coma, their tongue can suffocate her to death, so they must lie on their sides."
Lying on this side, the back is exposed.
Then put a needle in her back, no need to find a large blood vessel, just a shallow needle, the little blood oozing out of the capillaries is enough.
So she couldn't see her wounds, and she didn't feel anything afterwards. ”
"Okay, that's it. ”
......
Dylan's autopsy lasted a full ten hours.
From two p.m. and all the way to midnight.
The smell of blood rose to the sky.
This smell can cause all kinds of discomfort in the human nose, but in the noses of other animals in the forest, it is equal to three words.
It's time to eat.
It's better during the day, it's bright, and there are people again, and nothing dares to approach.
Once it's night, the surroundings will be lively, if it weren't for the fact that there was a roaring bonfire that served as a warning, and the aura exuded by Lin Shuo and Zhang Jin was strong enough, otherwise A
Under E's "painting prison", I don't know how many unjust souls will be added.
At about twelve o'clock in the night, Dylan finally finished the operation, took off the protective suit, and the whole person seemed to be fished out of the water.
While wiping the sweat on her face, she walked up to Lin Shuo and said to Lin Shuo: "It's okay, please come with me, Mr. Lin, and I'll tell you about today's discovery." ”
Wei Xingshan and Zhang Jin were busy burying the body, and Lin Shuo was A
e, invited into her tent by Dilan.
This kind of small tent is only suitable for sleeping, there is not much space, and the three of them are sitting in it, which is actually a bit crowded, but at the moment the three of them can't take care of this.
Dylan looked tired, she gasped for a while, stretched her long waist, and then said, "I can now conclude that this giant tiger was once the host of the King of Mountain Yama. ”
"How so?" asked Lin Shuo.
"In its heart, there is biological tissue that does not belong to it, which should be the remnants of the Mountain Yama King. There are also some very subtle traces on the inner walls of the blood vessels in the blood vessels of the whole body, whether they are arteries or meridians.
So I think that the species of Sanyama moves through the blood vessels of the host, and at the same time, it also absorbs nutrients from the host's blood to survive.
It can be inferred from this that the size of the king of Sanyama should be relatively small. It's a pity that I searched for a long time just now and couldn't find it. ”
After Di Lan said this, he paused, and then said: "According to the cracking of the International Biological Research Society's Reproductive Distance of the Mountain Yama King, this thing reproduces asexually through the spores of the plant body.
But now, according to my autopsy of this tiger, it has been found that the king of Sanyama not only breeds like this, but also actively changes its host through similar methods.
In this way, the information provided by the eighth master before is easy to explain.
That's how the Yama King keeps changing hosts, changing their genes to change the behavior of their populations.
It is like a smart chip, constantly modifying the creatures in the forest, so as to build the social synergy of the entire forest and achieve the effect of maximizing the use of resources.
The principle is this, but when it comes to implementation, I think it should be a very big project.
At the same time, this characteristic of it also greatly increases the difficulty of our actions.
Spore transfer, which is so common in the forest that we humans are imperceptible to the naked eye and almost nowhere to be found.
Now, what has become of the King of Mountain Yama, we can't know at all. ”
After Di Lan said this, he looked at Lin Shuo with burning eyes and asked, "Mr. Lin, what are you going to do?"
"Look for it. Lin Shuo said.
"How?" asked Dylan.
"You are such a big scientist, do you still need me to teach you?" Lin Shuo said, "Naturally, we will first find the law, and then find the individual." ”
"And what pattern did you find?" said Dylan, blinking, as if curious.
Judging from Zhang Guohua's notes, the creatures that were finally confirmed by Mr. Zhang Lao as the King of Mountain Yama are relatively large animals. Lin Shuo said slowly, "We don't care which creatures the Mountain Yama King has parasitized in those ten years, at least until the end, the place where it settles must be relatively spacious.
I think there are two reasons for this phenomenon.
One is that the size of the king of the mountain yama itself will continue to grow, which is easy to understand, just like the hermit crab, when it grows bigger, it has to find a bigger shell to hide.
Second, Yang Tuo reminded me that the reproduction of the King of Mountain Yama contains a huge amount of data for gene transmission, which requires a lot of energy.
The nutrient cycle in the body of a small animal should be difficult to meet the reproductive needs of the king of Sanyama, so in the end, it must find a large animal to settle down and absorb as many nutrients as possible.
And the results of the autopsy you just now, the King of Mountain Yama left obvious physical traces in the giant tiger's body.
In fact, this phenomenon also verifies this law to a certain extent. ”
After listening to Lin Shuo's analysis, Di Lan's beautiful eyes were shining.
She looked at the man beside her, admiring and curious.
As a biologist, Dylan has seen many intelligent people. Among the young people of his generation, Yang Tuo has always been secretly admired by Di Lan.
And now, the leader of the hunting door beside him, in addition to this good-looking skin, also seems to have the same amount of wisdom as Yang Tuo.
This is very rare, because Yang Tuo is smart, one is talent, and the other is environmental training, and the nature of his work must require him to have a clear mind.
And Lin Shuo, if Dylan remembers correctly, this guy's other identity besides a hunter seems to be just a Chinese teacher in a rural elementary school?
"Then Mr. Lin. Dylan asked softly, "What are your conclusions?"
"Since the previous host of the Mountain Yama King was this giant tiger. Its current host should be a larger creature than this giant tiger. Lin Shuo said.
"Bigger than this giant tiger?"
E then asked, "Is there such a creature in this forest? Even Lao Bai is one size smaller than that tiger." ”
"Naturally, there is. Lin Shuo said, "If I'm not mistaken, this thing should be the ultimate goal of the King of Mountain Yama to come to the Altai Mountains, and it is also a fierce beast alien. In the words of the International Biological Research Society, it is also a strange creature. ”
"Huh, is it?"
e looked surprised.
"Well, I've been smelling the smell for a long time. Lin Shuo opened the curtain of the tent and looked somewhere in the north, "This thing is quite honest in nature, and it is not easy to deal with." Originally, I wanted to keep the well water from the river. Now it seems that it was also fateful. ”
