After being taken by Zhang Ling to eat something casually, Professor Chen was immediately taken to the place she called the research institute.

It's a low-rise building, only two stories high, and there are only two guards standing guard at the door, and from the outside, it's impossible to imagine that this is a research institute. But after all, people said yes, and Professor Chen had no choice but to follow her inside.

Before entering the door, Zhang Ling first gave Professor Chen a card and said, "This is a green card, which can pass through all the doors of the research institute." After saying that, she took Professor Chen and continued to walk inside.

Entering the gate with a green card, Professor Chen, led by Zhang Ling, went directly to the second floor, and then walked straight along a corridor. And when he walked to the end of this corridor, Professor Chen found that there was actually an elevator here.

Suddenly seeing that there is an elevator here, Professor Chen felt very puzzled, thinking that it is only two floors, as for the installation of an elevator!

Zhang Ling took Professor Chen into the elevator and pressed the start button, then Professor Chen understood the purpose of the elevator, it turned out that the real location of this institute was underground, and you had to go through the elevator, because there was only a negative button in front of the elevator, which went underground.

At the same time, Professor Chen also sighed in his heart that it was very important for the country to see this mission, otherwise he would not have used the underground research institute.

After taking the elevator, it was about ten meters down, and the elevator stopped with a "bang", and then the elevator door was opened.

Unlike the depression above the institute, which is supposed to be deliberately disguised, it is a place that is very lively, and everyone is looking through ancient books or searching on computers, comparing them with the pictures in their hands, as if they are looking for something.

Zhang Ling took Professor Chen directly through the busy group of people and came to the innermost room, but before opening the door, Zhang Ling specially told Professor Chen: "What you will see in a while, I hope you can stay calm and don't panic." ”

Professor Chen was puzzled by her words, and wondered what kind of paleontology she said was so mysterious that it could scare him.

The door was finally opened, and the first thing Professor Chen saw was an ancient man frozen in ice. This is a young girl, wearing a light blue dress, with long black hair, and her eyes slightly closed. And because the ice that froze her was placed on a test bench, she looked as if she was standing in mid-air and sleeping peacefully.

Professor Chen was directly stunned by what he saw, and was speechless in shock, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he stammered to Zhang Ling and asked, "What did you say... Unearthed... Ancient Creatures .. Is this it?" Professor Chen pointed to the woman in front of him with a trembling hand.

Zhang Ling nodded and said, "Yes, this is the ancient human beings we unearthed this time. And the reason I'm asking you here this time is because we speculate that she might still be alive, and that you're one of the best biologists in the country, so we need your help. ”

"It can't be. Professor Chen shouted with a frightened face: "How could there be freezing technology in ancient times!?"

Zhang Ling motioned to the staff and told them to close the door.

Then he walked up to Professor Chen: "Professor Chen, please calm down first." ”

"When we first saw it, we were very surprised, thinking that there could be no freezing technology in ancient times, which could instantly freeze a living person and then preserve it to modern times. ”

"But our equipment did detect that she had a faint heartbeat fluctuation, and we tested her three times. This result forces us to make assumptions that it is possible that this person is still alive. ”

"To be honest, we asked you to come over this time just to ask you to help unfreeze her. ”

"We'll talk about whether there was freezing technology in ancient times, but now we mainly want to know if this ancient girl is still alive.

After listening to her description, Professor Chen gradually calmed down, thought carefully for a while, and said: "If she is frozen, how can your equipment detect that she has a heartbeat? ”

Zhang Ling shook her head: "That's what I don't understand! Obviously I'm frozen, but I still have a heartbeat." At first, I thought it was a malfunction of the machine, although the interval was relatively long, but there were still three consecutive beating reactions inside the ice cube, which made us have to suspect that this beating was a heartbeat. So I thought about thawing, whether she is alive or dead, we need to thaw her for research. But in case she still has life activities, thawing at will will only cause danger to her life, so we need your guidance and help. ”

Professor Chen pondered for a moment, then smiled, "Well, I happen to be very interested in her now, even if you don't want to unfreeze her, I think I'll ask for it." ”

Zhang Ling smiled: "Since there is a consensus of opinions, then let's start to prepare."

In fact, Zhang Ling had already prepared the equipment required for the thaw, and all they needed was Professor Chen's professional guidance.

For Professor Chen, this is also the first time that humans have been thawed, because no one in China has actually frozen and thawed.

Therefore, he did not dare to be sloppy at all, and each procedure had to be personally guided, carefully and seriously.

The thawing process took a whole day to melt all the ice outside, and Professor Chen never left the laboratory during this day, not even resting, he has been waiting in it.

The moment he saw that the ice had completely melted, he immediately arranged for someone to resuscitate him, and he himself finally fainted directly due to physical exhaustion.

When Professor Chen slowly opened his eyes again, he saw a little nurse standing beside him, he immediately got up from the bed with a thud and asked excitedly, "How long have I been asleep, how is the frozen person, is he alive or dead?" ”

The little nurse hurriedly comforted: "Professor Chen, don't get excited, you have just slept for three hours, you are too tired, you should rest more." ”

"I don't have time to rest now, tell me how it is. Professor Chen looked anxious.

"I don't know what I'm doing now! In this case, I'll take you to Director Zhang first, and you can ask her to find out. ”

Professor Chen asked suspiciously, "Director Zhang, you're talking about Zhang Ling, take me to see her."

"I don't know if it's called Zhang Ling, I just know that she is the biggest leader here, so I'll take you to meet her.

The nurse took Professor Chen to the senior ward next door, and Zhang Ling happened to be standing at the door of the ward. Professor Chen hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What happened, is that ancient man still alive?"

Zhang Ling pointed to the window of the ward and said, "Look, she is lying inside." Although her vital signs are very weak, she is gradually recovering, and I have arranged for several professional nurses to take care of her, and I believe that she will soon be able to return to normal vital signs. ”

Professor Chen looked through the window of the ward for a long time and sighed incomparably: "It's really incomprehensible! Do you know what dynasty she is? Professor Chen finally asked.

"Until now, we have not been able to determine which dynasty she belonged to, and the inscription on the altar that accompanied her is different from all the currently known scripts in the world, and we speculate that it may be the writing of a lost civilization that has not been recorded in history. ”

"Hopefully, when she wakes up, she will be able to understand what we are saying, so that we can get information directly from her. Professor Chen looked at the girl lying on the hospital bed and muttered to himself.
