Find a way to find the center volume 213,
Two hundred and thirteen,
After some struggle, Li Jingfei finally decided to speak out. It's better to say that it's better to break it down than to hide it and make people more suspicious and do some irrational behavior. Maybe the other party is not as complicated as he thinks, just a simple accompanying security guard.
"Yes, I do have doubts about you, and this has to do with my long-standing profession. ”
"Well, in that case, we might as well open the skylight and say something. From the time we met until now, I asked myself if I had no ill will towards you, even in such a predicament, I never thought of giving up on you and running away alone, why do you doubt me?"
"Honestly, the reason I'm suspicious of you and your team is because you're so hardworking. ”
"It's weird, isn't it good to be serious?"
"This expedition into the mountains is because I went to the geological bureau in the city to tell them about strange things happening in the mountains, but judging by their expressions, it seems that they don't attach much importance to this matter. Why did a large number of scientific expeditions be sent not long after? These experts and scholars are all real, and they are also serious about their profession. But why send so many entourage, luggage carryers, trackers, team doctors, and even professional wilderness adventure safety officers like you. Is it necessary to use such a large amount of manpower, material and financial resources for a small scientific research, and even if it is necessary, it is impossible to approve it so quickly. Let's put it this way, even if the funding is approved, I don't believe that the scientific research team can get such advanced equipment. Therefore, in this scientific research, the four of you are nominally accompanying security guards, but in fact they are sponsors, not only sponsoring the economy, but also sponsoring equipment. ”
"There's nothing wrong with sponsoring research. ”
"There is no free lunch in the world, if you really like this, then in the ranks of scientific research and scientific research, you have long been famous, it is impossible for a few professors to introduce you, just think you are security guards. None of them mentioned a word about funding from beginning to end, which means they don't know about it. Secretly funding, hiding your identity, and the strange events happening in the mountains, I need to doubt your purpose. ”
Call......
After listening to Li Jingfei's tirade, Ge Huaiyi let out a long breath with a smile on his face and said: "What I did before, although I didn't say that it was righteous and bright, I didn't have to hide and deceive like this. I didn't expect to be recognized by you for the first time, people, you really can't do bad things. I know you don't believe me, but I promise you, my purpose is very simple, that is, I want to explore those ancient martial arts relics among the famous mountains and rivers in the world. ”
Is it a dream of martial arts? Young heroes are unparalleled in the world, and they go to the end of the world with swords. is not honorable and vain, only the road is uneven.
Martial arts is a dream that belongs to Li Jingfei's youth, and any teenager spends his time hiding in the bed, lying under the desk, and secretly watching martial arts novels.
It's just that some people run away from home for the sake of heroic dreams, and some end up mediocre for a lifetime.
When Li Jingfei was young, he also had a dream of martial arts, hoping that one day he could meet an old beggar who was bullied on the road. He couldn't get used to those people bullying the weak, so he rushed forward to do justice. But because of his short stature, not only did he fail to protect the old beggar, but he was beaten by the other party.
Which one touched the old beggar with his kindness, and the old beggar not only taught the gang a lesson with great might, but also passed on his own mastery to Li Jingfei. Since then, Li Jingfei has peerless martial arts and is hidden among ordinary people. Whenever night came, he put on his self-made robes and went where the light could not reach, and fought against all evil forces.
However, as he grew up and joined the work, fighting evil forces became no longer a fantasy, nor was it so dreamy, but his chivalrous spirit was still there. Therefore, Li Jingfei knows that because people now have more contact and more complex thinking, what they yearn for in their hearts is no longer the rivers and lakes that are happy and revenge, but what kind of crossing, rebirth, and harem.
Therefore, the person in front of him said that he just wanted to find the cheats left over from the past martial arts, and how credible was it.
There are 50 percent, which is the most conservative estimate made by Li Jingfeng.
In their business, it is very important to look at people, although he doubts Ge Huaiyi, but from the time they met to the present, he can also be sure that the other party has not harmed them. And when he said those words just now, he was also very sincere, even if he did not explain the real purpose of their trip, but at least he was sure that there was no conspiracy against everyone.
For a minute or two, the two looked at each other, both wanting to see something in each other's eyes, but unfortunately, there was nothing but helplessness.
"How's it going?"
Just when the embarrassment between the two didn't know how long it would last, Fan Lingwei's appearance broke all this.
"Not yet. Ge Huaiyi spoke first: "I found some unknown wild fruits, go back to eat some first, and when everyone is rested, I will go back to the village immediately." ”
......
Fan Lingwei wanted to ask something, but she would also look at her face and find that something was wrong with the current atmosphere, so she didn't ask more.
"What kind of fruit is this, why does it look like a stone?" Leaning under the big tree, Su Wen asked weakly, "But it smells quite fragrant, I don't know how it tastes?"
"You guys wait a minute!" Bai Qilan said suddenly, listening to her tone, her voice trembling a little.
"What's the matter!" everyone thought that the professor was unwell after eating the fruit, and hurriedly gathered around to ask.
I saw Bai Qilan, holding the wild fruit in one hand and Ge Huaiyi's collar in the other, and asked excitedly, "Where did this be collected, and is there anything else?"
"Yes...... Yes, there are many more, don't get excited. Even Ge Huaiyi, who was accustomed to seeing big scenes, was stunned by the professor.
"Okay, you can take me to see it quickly. As she spoke, Bai Qilan stood up and was about to leave.
"Professor, don't get excited, eat some first, and I'll pick some for you when it's not enough. ”
"Why do I want to eat, I am willing to eat such a precious thing. ”
Hearing this, Ge Huaiyi was even more stunned, and said, "Professor, are you mistaken, there are still a lot of this kind of fruit, how can it be precious." ”
"What? a lot! How is this possible, this fruit is a prehistoric plant that I know, it has long been extinct, how can there be a lot of it. ”
"Qilan, have you stayed in the cave for too long and hallucinated, and this is not a deep mountain forest that no one has ever set foot in, how can there be prehistoric plants. ”
"I can't be mistaken, I've studied a lot of fossils of prehistoric animals, and I've found a lot of herbivores eating this fruit, and I've found some fossils of this fruit. Later, I also invited many experts to restore it with a computer, and it is what we see now, and we will never be mistaken. ”
At this time, Li Jingfei pulled Ge Huaiyi's sleeve and said, "Otherwise, you can take a look at the identification function on the equipment, and if so, collect some more and go back to study." If not, the professor would have given up, and we would have known what the fruit was. ”
"Can't do it. ”
"What do you mean?" At this moment, Li Jingfei was more excited than Bai Qilan.
"It's not that I don't want to check, it's that until now, my communication tools haven't been connected to the Internet. ”
"No net, how is this possible. ”
At first, there was no communication in the cave, and everyone thought that the signal was blocked by the entire mountain, but now that they are out of the cave, how can there still be no network.
Everyone's communication equipment was either not brought when they rescued people from the cave, or they were broken when they fell, and there is no way to prove Ge Huaiyi's words now.
"If you can't find it, take me to see the fruit first. What Bai Qilan was thinking about was witnessing it with her own eyes.
At Bai Qilan's insistence, Ge Huaiyi had to take the professor to see the wild fruit.
When one person goes, there are other people who are curious, and in the end, everyone goes with him, even the injured Su Wen's curiosity overshadows everything.
You don't have to look at the road in front of you, but in fact it is made up of hills of varying heights. The nearby terrain is relatively low, but following Ge Huaiyi to see the wild fruit, everyone knows that they have to climb a small dirt slope.
When I came to my destination, I saw a small vine in front of me, among the vines, there were stones of different sizes, small fists, and large watermelons.
These stones are the fruit of their hands. Some of the fruits were ripe and cracked, and the flesh inside had already been eaten.
I saw that Bai Qilan couldn't stand up because of her excitement, knelt in the middle of the plant, picked up a leaf and observed it carefully.
To the uninitiated, it's just a bunch of plants, just weird-looking, but to a professor who studies biology, they're living fossils. Their existence is even beyond the Jurassic. But how is it that no one has discovered such a treasure so far?
"This is the most precious wild fruit, and I must taste it to see how precious it is. Su Wen, who was tired and hungry, couldn't care if this was a living fossil, he just wanted to be able to feast on it and solve his urgent needs first.
Although the fruit looks like a stone, the skin is very soft, and it is like holding a grapefruit in your hand. But when the skin is torn open, I see that there is a layer of shell inside, and the surface of this shell is smooth and very hard, and it really takes a lot of effort to eat it.
"This is so hard, how can you eat it?"
"It's hard, but it's also relatively brittle, so just take two and knock each other hard, and you're good to go. After speaking, Ge Huaiyi smashed two on the spot
And the bigger the fruit, the easier it is to knock.
The flesh is bright red and translucent, and at first glance it is thought to be a watermelon-flavored jelly.
Don't look at Su Wen who is hungry, but when the food is delivered, he is still a little afraid to eat.
"Professor Bai, can this thing really be eaten?"
"Theoretically edible. ”
"What do you mean?"
"This fruit was a common food for animals in prehistoric times. But whether the digestive function of living beings at that time was the same as that of us is difficult to say. ”
"It's just that you can't eat it. ”
"Not necessarily, after all, this plant has evolved for so long, maybe we can digest it too. ”
Bai Qilan said as she stared at Su Wen, as if she was looking forward to him eating.
As for Su Wen, there was a chill in his heart for no reason, and he seemed to have a feeling of being pitted. But now they can't manage so much, they are still at least half a day's way from the village, and now they are so seriously injured, it is not possible to replenish their energy without eating something.
It may be that he has exercised a lot since breakfast and has not eaten water and rice until now, or maybe this fruit that has survived for 10,000 years does have something unique about him, in short, when Su Wen took the first bite, he couldn't stop anymore.
So I ate four of them one after another, and the flesh was blocked to my throat, so I stopped helplessly.
During this period, even Bai Qilan wanted to stop him from eating so uncontrollably.
"Professor, is it okay to eat like this?"
Theoretically, this is a very unhealthy performance, but it also makes him do it occasionally, after all, he is injured, and there is still a way to go, so what can he do if he does not supplement his nutrition. Let's not eat so fiercely and so much. ”
Although it is necessary to be temperate, in such a state of hunger and hunger, it is difficult for even the most learned person to control it.
Just as he picked up the third fruit, Ge Huaiyi suddenly stood up and swept around vigilantly.
