Chapter 14: Their Origins (2)
"It's pretty much the same." Teacher Zhou nodded, then walked across from him, sat down, and put on a posture of a long talk, "So the reason why you asked your father to come to the North Courtyard in the first place was to find out what was going on in you—all the cells were cancerous, and this person would definitely not survive." But I didn't expect that your kid not only lived, but also ...... It's like this—"
He pushed his chair and slid to another test bench next to him, and pulled out a report: "It seems that you have mutations in more than just oncogenes. Although it is not yet clear, it still needs to be studied. But let's put it this way—" he pointed to the dense text on the report—but Li Zhen didn't understand, "Now there is no limit to telomere damage to the cells that make up your body. In other words...... Your cells can go on forever, and theoretically, your lifespan is ......"
Li Zhen listened to his words, and then was stunned.
After a while, he slowly said in the other party's meaningful eyes: "You mean...... I'm not going to die? ”
He won't die, of course Li Zhen has a premonition about this. However, the kind of immortality refers to the kind of fatal injury that is enough to kill an ordinary person instantly, and he can quickly repair the wound by replenishing food, and he will not die.
But in fact, he never knew if he would come back to life if he was dismembered, or his brain was minced. Therefore, on the night of the previous riddle, when he was desperately gambling with his life, he lied to Wang Yueran to hit his heart. Then I knew that even if the heart was injured...... You can still recover by absorbing the "nutrients".
It seems that the cells in the body have their own consciousness, and once it is time for life and death, they give full play to their "subjective initiative" and absorb everything they can absorb.
But this "will not die" ...... Similar to "immortality", he never thought about "not dying".
In his consciousness, no matter how powerful a person is, he will eventually grow old...... will all die.
And yet now......
Thinking about it again, it seems that I should have realized this a long time ago.
Teacher Zhou nodded. Looking at the slightly stunned expression on his face, he added, "Actually, it's not that simple. You know, after the average person is about 25 years old, their cells begin to die – this is also the process of aging. As for you......"
At this moment, Miss An also raised her head on the side.
Because she also understood what Teacher Zhou meant......
Li Zhen will not get old. Rather, it will always maintain the peak youth state of a person's life, until ......
Green Chun is forever. Since the dawn of mankind, this has been a dream that everyone has had, right?
Immortal and immortal, green chun forever. As a woman, the temptation is even greater. Therefore, even Miss An couldn't help but show obvious envy. Then I saw Teacher Zhou glancing at her, and quickly lowered her head again.
Li Zhen never spoke.
Because I really don't know what to say. The thoughts that had been vaguely swirling in his mind before came out of the mouth of a senior scientist at this moment—such a powerful and unquestionable conclusion made him a little unacceptable for a while.
How does it sound...... It's not very realistic.
He subconsciously looked at himself...... This is, a guy who will never die, who will always be young? It was only at this time that he understood why Teacher Zhou said at the beginning, "If you put it in ancient times, you will be caught and sucked blood". He also understood that Teacher Zhou would always be like those people in the South Courtyard and ask him if he wanted to stay and work here.
In the same way, he was even more glad for his previous decision.
With such a body, if it weren't for the fact that he had "made two great contributions" to the secret service, if it weren't for his parents who also worked here...... Just come to the door so recklessly......
A chill suddenly jumped up from his spine.
At this moment, he remembered the two girls he hadn't seen for a long time - Kitagawa Qingming and Ma Xinyu. If it weren't for the two of them leading him into this world, he would have advised him not to act rashly......
He clenched his fists slightly, not daring to think about it.
Teacher Zhou carefully observed his face and patted him on the shoulder: "What, scared?" ”
“…… Yes? Li Zhen raised his head slightly flustered, "It's a little ...... I don't know what to say. ”
"Hmm...... Look at you. Teacher Zhou stood up with a smile, "Such a good thing happened to you, and it is so unpopular, if you want me to say, just with this calmness, you are born to be a material for scientific research - how convenient it is to study yourself!" ”
Li Zhen smiled and replied.
Come on...... What a calmness. I'm scared, okay!
But he found another problem - Mr. Zhou's answer was not what he asked?
I asked myself, what does my feather have to do with Adam, right? It was he who tried to ask again.
Then Mr. Zhou said, "I really can't say this." All I can tell you is that it probably lived before Australopithecus, the earliest ancestors of humans. Maybe it's because your gene has been mutated to a special one, and we found out some time ago that it does have a sense of your feather - but this kind of thing can't be said to be so unusual, for example, your father also has a sense of other abilities. Maybe you've inherited this trait from him. Dig deeper, either wait until you join in, or ...... Hehe, young man, when you reach a higher level in the future, you will be able to know the Tao. ”
So Li Zhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
It still doesn't seem like anyone is thinking of themselves with that big guy. The two distant inductions—the last one he didn't see, but Li Zhen was sure it was all around—had sparked his potential and exerted his incredible power. He felt that it must be more than just as Mr. Zhou said.
The kind of call that seems to come from the same kind...... Although it was vague now, it had always been imprinted in his heart, and even woke him up from his sleep a few times.
But more is better than less. own body...... It's already so weird, it's better not to let people know about such things anymore.
And when he used to answer such questions as Ying Ran, he also scratched his head and smiled stupidly: "I don't know how to do it...... As soon as I was in a hurry, I suddenly became like that. ”
Although I don't know when the road will be goofs...... But let's leave it at that.
Teacher Zhou once said that his bloodline is A-grade. And it is said that in the northern base, there are no more than three A-level people now...... Well, no one will be able to see their own depth, right?
