Chapter 652: Gloomy

Tang Huan is magnanimous, but anyone who is familiar with her, she often makes the other party not need an honorific title, just call her by her name, but it doesn't mean that she has no temper. She is a holy queen, and she is also a goddess when she is reborn, and everyone has treated her with respect since she was a child, and no one has ever dared to speak to him in such a tone. She could accept Xu Zongbin's previous presumptuousness, but this angry rebuke still made her brows unhappily suppressed.

The powerhouses of this realm were furious, and the air in the entire sky seemed to be collapsing downward, and the maple leaves that were soaked in the rain at noon fell like a torrential rain, pouring down from around them, bleak and desolate, with a slightly murderous aura.

Han Xu hurriedly stepped forward, stood between the two, frowned at his uncle, who didn't know what kind of temperament and personality he had, motioned for him to control his emotions, and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?"

Xu Zongbin didn't realize that what he was doing was extremely inappropriate, pointed to the monster inside, and said with angry eyebrows: "Monsters are violent, if they accidentally go crazy, they may be bloodied when they rush into the human world, and you actually lock them up in this forest so simply?"

Maybe it's because of the cold continuation, or maybe it's just because of the purity of what Xu Zongbin said, Tang Huan's eyebrows gradually calmed down, and he said in a cold voice: "These fences are built by the mechanics of the mechanical faction, and any reckless behavior will directly trigger the alarm, and all the weapons in this land will be activated, and if these monsters have any abnormal movements, they will be killed directly." ”

"No, what I'm trying to say has nothing to do with whether you have a coping strategy or not, what I'm saying is that you have a problem with your attitude towards them. ”

The frequency of falling leaves began to return to its natural nature, and Xu Zongbin's fingers passed through the air mixed with a few broken leaves, pointing to the white-haired cloud wolf that was closest to them inside. On all fours, the huge wolf body was two meters tall and fifty or sixty meters away from them, but because it was too large, it seemed to be right in front of them.

"I don't know what you call it, this wolf is called the white-haired cloud wolf, and the scientific name is the same, the single combat power is like a high-level martial artist, and the best thing is teamwork. Do you know how terrifying a group of white-haired cloud wolves can do when they gather together?

This kind of monster almost did not appear during the cataclysm three hundred years ago, and the written record is almost zero, and people have little knowledge of them, but in fact it is not that they did not appear, but because they are not many in number and cannot withstand sacrifice, so the race chooses to harvest more in the rear combat field, so that humans do not know much about them, because those who have seen them are all humans who are in the fallen area, and they are not alive.

But in fact, 1,500 years ago, the ancient scholar Shen Fei wrote "Strange Dream Talk" mentioned this kind of monster, at that time they were not called white-haired cloud wolves, but cloud dogs. That account mentions that a general of the Great Qin Dynasty at that time went out hunting and killed a cloud dog by luck. What happened next? The wolves are plotting revenge!

The general's infant son was eaten alive by a cloud wolf who came to take revenge at night, leaving a lot of broken bones at the door of the mansion, and the white-haired cloud wolf even deliberately left a back to lure the general to chase him. Seeing this, the general was furious and led 200 soldiers into the forest, but what was the result? The general, who had cultivated to the realm of a full grandmaster, and the 200 soldiers under his command, were brutally killed by 36 cloud wolves! A single white-haired cloud wolf was not that powerful, so how could they kill so many soldiers was based on calculation! They even laid a trap in the forest that only humans would have laid out, and relying on their knowledge of the forest, many soldiers fell off the cliff!"

"What does this mean? This monster is far more cruel and cunning than ordinary monsters, and its intelligence may not be lower than that of humans! You don't confine them alone, but let them live in groups, they may be plotting something to make you all creepy at any moment!"

In fact, both Han Xu and Tang Huan had goosebumps on their arms because of this story.

Tang Huan glanced at Han Xu meaningfully, and Han Xu said to Xu Zongbin puzzled: "Uncle Shi, this is just a story. ”

"I'm studying monsters, I don't know if this is a story?" Xu Zongbin snorted coldly, the usual bad old man's style disappeared, and he was replaced by a scathing, arrogant and arrogant researcher, "I can tell you that this is definitely not a story, because Shen Fei himself is also a member of the Qin Dynasty, and this book was also written in the Qin Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty's strict investigation of such books is no less than the registration of household registration." Shen Fei is not a literati, let alone an official in the court, he wants to publish such a book, if it is found to be a fraud, the torture will be amputation of both feet. The fact that the Qin Dynasty approved the publication of this book is the best illustration of this. ”

In addition, the general's name is Tan Meng, and Shen Fei didn't dare to record the general's real name, of course, because there are many taboos, but this story is about this person. Looking through the history books, this general is not difficult to check, because in the history of the Qin Dynasty, there is no general who died more tragically than him. ”

"What is the nature of monsters? The nature of monsters is the nature of human beings! Greed, savagery! They have all the ugliness of human beings, and the compromise civilization binds the ugly side of human beings, but they don't, what about you? But give them freedom, give them the possibility of indulging their nature!? Do you know what the real way is? If you want to study these bastards, you have to bind them with the strongest chains, and remove all their fangs and all the tools of battle on their bodies!"

Tang Huan and Han Xu glanced at each other again, and the two people who are regarded as big names in the world today, as if the two children fell into silence in a field that was unfamiliar to them and even to the world.

"When it comes to other things, I'm a bad old man, but when it comes to monsters, I say it's one, and even if all of you think it's two, he'll still be one. ”

Xu Zongbin walked around the fence, changing his angle to observe these monsters more, because the anger was generously vented, the emotions slowly calmed down, and the tone gradually calmed down.

The young Tang Huan and Han Xu followed him silently, without any dissatisfaction with his tone, but quietly thinking about what he said.

As the sun sets, the red maple forest is also red, and the young and old figures are swaying among the shadows stretched by the sunset, as if the grandsons and granddaughters of the zoo follow their grandfathers to walk, at the beginning of dusk, the human eyes are hazy, a little romantic.

If people see that people all over the world are curious, and all the outcasts are devout and devout, and the world destroyer who has brought the Divine Xuan Emperor into a desperate situation, at this moment, he is as well-behaved as a student following behind this bad old man, I am afraid that everyone will be so surprised that their jaws will hit the ground.

"My reaction is a bit big, I'm sorry for Master Han's nephew and Her Highness the Goddess. ”

Xu Zongbin suddenly floated out a sentence full of vicissitudes. Without waiting for the two to answer, he smiled bitterly and told the past: "Monsters have harmed humans to such an extent that they almost wiped out the entire human race, but human beings still have little understanding of monsters, and I have always felt that this may be the most ironic thing in this world." ”

"You have a point. Han continued to say slowly.

Xu Zongbin's figure quietly fell, like a tree that was about to die of old age in this dim yellow world, full of vicissitudes and sadness overflowing between the wrinkles of his skin, looking back on the past, his expression was full of gloom, and his voice also carried a light tremor under the wind.

"When I first conducted monster research, like every monster researcher, I regarded domesticating monsters as the highest goal, eager to make a name for myself through domesticating monsters, find the weaknesses of monsters, find the source of these terrifying creatures, and save the people from fire and water. Yes, young people often have such enthusiasm, you must have it, I can see that I was the same as you when I was young, but the direction of focus was different.

I graduated from Kawasi University with a major in monster studies, and I got my master's and doctor's degree in my sophomore year. Monsterology should be a very popular major, after all, the biggest enemy of human beings is them, but in fact, it is not, this is a rather unpopular major, why? Because this cultural major is difficult to employ, and can only do pure theoretical research, but it is difficult to make progress in pure theoretical research, the best way to solve monsters is the combat power of weapons and warriors, who can commit academic research? And even if it is an academic study, the progress of monster science over the past few hundred years has been minimal, and many research results are not as good as the summary of the battles of the military warriors. But I still chose this major, and I chose to engage in this major because I love it. Interestingly, I also felt that I was born to be a person in this industry.

After graduating with a doctorate, I first worked in a monster research institute under Zhao Zhengwang, called the "Monster Research Center", and at that time, the organization allocated me a piece of land, which was 50,000 hectares, and gave me monster research.

At that time, the monster studied was a very weak monster, called the explosive ground fowl, the appearance was similar to that of ordinary chickens, and chickens, they couldn't fly, they could only simply glide, and they had no combat power, even the first grade of martial artists were inferior, and the salient feature was that they would squeeze their blood vessels and hearts when they encountered danger, and detonate their bodies from the inside through blood, producing a considerable scale of explosion, so as to die with the enemy. Another feature is that this monster has a strong reproductive ability, and the military caught one and sent it to the research institute, and hundreds of them were bred in just a few years.

There are many memories of me in that research area, and that time is also the happiest time in my life, almost 80 years, because it was in this research area that I met my only wife in my life and had my only child in my life. ”

Xu Zongbin's figure slowly became rickety, and his voice became more and more hoarse and low at this time, and Han Xu could vaguely guess what this uncle, who was removed from the academic world, experienced when he was young, and his expression slowly became solemn and sympathetic and lonely.

"Well, you must have guessed the rest of the story, I thought I could be friends with these beasts, raise them as cute animals, and dream that they could also be cute animals, so I gave these monsters next to each other every day, I fed them every day, from the very beginning of keeping them in cages, to later completing an ecological planting forest, there are all kinds of melon goods, and I specially raised earthworms underground, and began to try the way of free-range, everything I did was to make friendships with these creatures who almost destroyed human beings back then, and now also have the power to destroy human beings, I think they are not just my research objectsIt is also my unexpected love besides my wife and children. I know all their habits, I know their eating habits, I know that they are different from other creatures, they need to eat every two hours, and September of the month is the estrus season...... They seem to know me well, every time they see me appear, they will make excited screams when they are quiet, and some of the experimental projects I have carried out, they are also like obedient babies, very cooperative.

It seems beautiful, but everything is the opposite, the better I think, the more completely everything is broken. ”

"My wife, Xiaomei, is also a researcher, but her research direction is different from mine, I study explosive ground birds, and she is doing data analysis of the current situation of the living environment outside the survival circle, that is, analyzing and summarizing the information outside the circle fed back by the military.

My daughter was two and a half years old, and I had been studying these explosive ground fowl for four years and three months, and that Saturday, the weather was fine, and I went to attend an academic conference in Shendu City, and I was able to come back in the evening. That day, a colleague in the institute had an urgent matter and needed someone to replace him, and I got a temporary message asking me to take over to attend the meeting, plus the time was short, so I also agreed, and I forgot to tell Xiaomei in a hurry, and my phone was also dropped in the research place, and I didn't think about it for a long time, so I planned to come back and tell him. Xiaomei returned to the dormitory early in the afternoon and found that I was not there, so she took her daughter to the research field to find me, which was also the first time she approached my research field after I freed those animals.

I was to blame for everything, I was careless, I didn't tell her, there was still a trial run of stocking, and the danger index was unknown. It's that I didn't tell her, I'm not there, I'm out for a meeting and I'll be back in the evening......

She approached this group of beasts with her daughter, she did not rush into the field, because she had a daughter in her arms, so she was just looking for me on the edge of the fence wall like we are now, and as a result, the natural breath of human children instantly activated the hostility with humans in their own blood, and these beasts, more than three hundred explosive ground birds, began to climb over my seven-meter-high fence in a stacked manner!

My wife tried to run away but was just ......"

His words fell gloomily here, leaving only the sound of the wind blowing in late autumn and making the leaves rattle, in this story many years ago, the lives of the two protagonists also fell in his voice.
