Volume 1: The Mystery of Genes Chapter 2 The First Genetic Lock

The fastest speed in the universe is not the speed of light, but the speed of consciousness!

As soon as Jiang Wei's mind moved, his consciousness had returned to his body.

The black stone also appeared in his hand at the same time.

A puff of green smoke came out of the palm of his hand, only to find that this stone was burning to death!

"Wow!" He screamed and hurriedly tried to throw the stone to the ground. But no matter how hard you shake your hand, the black stone is like sticking to your hand, and you can't shake it off no matter what.

"Whew! Whoosh! The palm of his hand was burned with a loud sound, and seeing the stone quickly melt in the palm of his hand, completely sticking to the flesh and skin, Jiang Wei gritted his teeth in pain, sweated profusely, and tried his best to hold back so that he didn't scream.

He rushed to the edge of the pool, turned on the faucet and poured cold water into his hand, but the stone melted faster, and in an instant it was completely integrated into his palm. He raised his palm to see that it had been completely burned, bloody and red like roasted meat.

The severe pain made his cranial nerves throb, and he felt like he was about to faint, he forced himself to turn around and walk a few steps, and fell on the bed with a "bang", and at the moment when his head fell, he suddenly heard a soft "click" in his head, like turning on a switch......

His consciousness was suddenly clearer than ever, and the feeling of pain disappeared without a trace, and he could hear the voices of people in the courtyard in the distance very clearlyβ€”those people who were at least a hundred meters away from his hut, all people who had run out of their homes to avoid the shock, gathered together in a chaotic manner, talking noisily, but each sentence could be heard very clearly, as if they were speaking in their ears.

Then he "saw" an aunt hurrying towards his hut. His consciousness didn't fly out, but he clearly "saw" the scene outside the house......

"Woo ......" the aunt banged on his door!

"Jiang Wei! Jiang Wei! Are you sleeping dead! Get up! Get up! Did you know that there was an earthquake? Outside the door, a loud woman was shouting.

That's Aunt Chang who lives next door!

Aunt Chang is a good person. She is an aunt in the canteen of the compound, and if there is anything delicious, she will specially leave one for Jiang Wei. She watched Jiang Wei grow up since she was a child, and she also knew that Jiang Wei had autism when she was a child, and she felt that this child was quite pitiful!

Jiang Wei's eyes rolled, and his face immediately changed to a wooden expression, slowly walked to the back of the door, opened the door, and looked at Aunt Chang with a dull expression.

"Ouch! Why are you still in the house! Come out, come out! Aunt Chang dragged him out of the house.

Just as he was out the door, the entire city went without power.

"Did you sleep too hard? Did you know that there was an earthquake just now? The whole compound ran out! I ran outside and didn't see you, but it killed me! Aunt Chang said in a hurry.

Aunt Chang deliberately ran back to find him.

Jiang Wei was very moved in his heart, but he said with a wooden expression on his face: "I'm fine!" ”

Ever since he had autism, everyone thought he had a bad brain, and when adults talked to him, they thought he was a mentally handicapped child. And children of the same age will blatantly bully him.

So he gradually learned to play dumb habitually, to pretend to be dull and wooden in front of everyone, and let others think of him as a fool - he used this method to protect himself.

Although bad children will think that he is easier to bully, good people will find this child pitiful and will give him more care and care. In the end, he still doesn't suffer, because there are still many good people in the world!

Aunt Chang took his hand and walked briskly towards the open space in front of the compound, babbling as she walked: "The earthquake just now really scared me to death!" A lot of people ran out without even getting dressed. Fortunately, the houses in our compound were built by the original Earthquake Bureau, and the quality is quite good, and not a single building has collapsed. If the newly built commercial houses in recent years had probably been collapsed! ”

It is an old residential compound that was formerly the family home of the Earthquake Bureau. Later, the Earthquake Bureau moved, and the people living in this compound became more and more mixed.

The compound consists of seven red-brick buildings, all of which are six-storey residential buildings, and two rows of bungalows. The row of bungalows on the east side of the compound has an internal canteen, a commissary, a barber shop and other living facilities, and Aunt Chang works in the internal canteen;

The row of bungalows on the west side is an additional storage room allocated to the former leaders of the Earthquake Bureau, which can be regarded as a special treatment. Later, almost all of them were converted into small single rooms that could live in them, and Aunt Chang lived next door to Jiang Wei, which was rented from a retired old cadre's house.

Jiang Wei's cottage is located in the westernmost part of this row of old bungalows, which was originally the house in his grandmother's name.

After his grandmother died, his uncle changed this storage room into a small single room, which became Jiang Wei's own nest.

By the time they reached the open space in front of the compound, hundreds of people had already gathered. The entire compound of the Earthquake Bureau was in chaos, men, women, and children were not dressed properly, and it seemed that they all ran out in a hurry to avoid the earthquake.

A middle-aged woman in the crowd said loudly: "I feel that the magnitude of the earthquake just now has exceeded the magnitude of five, and it should not have reached the sixth magnitude." I wonder if there will be another earthquake? ”

A man's voice said: "I feel that the earthquake just now was just a small earthquake before the big earthquake, everyone should be vigilant, maybe there will be a big earthquake in a while!" ”

Another woman exclaimed, "What is that?" My bank card, passbook, gold necklace, LV bag...... All the valuable things were not taken out. If the house is destroyed, there will be nothing left of our house! ”

Aunt Chang sneered on the side: "You can be content!" If you can save a small life, it's not bad! If you don't even have your life, what's the use of having more money! ”

Jiang Wei was listening to people's discussions, and he felt the ground under his feet tremble slightly, and then a low rumbling sound was faintly heard in the distance......

The noisy crowd fell silent, and everyone listened silently to the frightening movement.

Someone nervously whispered, "It's coming!" Not again! ”

No one responded to her, and a great uneasiness hung over people's hearts.

Jiang Wei thought to himself, "As soon as I took down the stone on top of the black pyramid just now, the earthquake stopped. It must have been the earthquake caused by the Dark Crystal Pyramid. But why is it shaking again now? Could it be that those monsters still have the same black stone? ”

Then he thought, "How strange it is that stone melted in my hand!" ”

He looked up at the sky, but couldn't see anything.

He was sure that the transparent city must still be there, but as soon as his consciousness returned to his body, it was immediately indistinguishable from that of ordinary people, and all the special abilities possessed by his consciousness body disappeared.

The earth was shaking, the loud and low rumbling was getting closer and closer, it seemed that even the air was rumbling, and the mood of the people was extremely tense and depressed, but the expected earthquake was delayed.

At some point, the rumble suddenly disappeared, and a blue ball of light appeared in the sky. The diameter of the disc-shaped light cluster was about twenty or thirty meters, and it slowly floated over from a distance, stopping at the gate of the compound, suspended in the air dozens of meters high, emitting a faint blue light, not dazzling, but it was impossible to see what was in the light cluster.

"Looks like a UFO...... Is it a flying saucer? Jiang Wei guessed.

The blue light in the sky attracted everyone's attention, and people seemed to have received some kind of notification at the same time, and they walked towards the gate of the compound together.

Aunt Chang has been holding Jiang Wei's hand tightly, like holding her own child. They followed the crowd out of the gate of the compound and into the street.

The streets were already crowded with people, all looking up at the blue light in the sky. There are many more people coming from afar, converging beneath the blue light.

The blue light only paused slightly, and then began to slowly float forward again.

Everyone followed the blue light cluster, no one spoke, no one asked where they were going, people just silently followed it. The crowd was unusually quiet, and there seemed to be some kind of tacit understanding.

The entire city was plunged into darkness due to the power outage caused by the previous earthquake, and only the people on this street, bathed in the blue light, could faintly see the surrounding scene.

Jiang Wei turned his head to observe the people walking silently around him, and found that everyone's facial expressions were extremely peaceful, although people were open, they seemed to be asleep, as if they were sleepwalking collectively. People had completely forgotten the fear and anxiety caused by the earthquake, and under the dim blue light, they walked silently, and everyone seemed to have been hypnotized, just walking on their own, not caring about the people around them.

This kind of scene reminds Jiang Wei of the biochemical zombies in the movie...... He couldn't help but shudder.

He turned his head to look at Aunt Chang, who had been holding him, her eyes were focused on the blue light in the sky, her expression was gentle and quiet, and she seemed to have no worries in her heart.

Jiang Wei gently withdrew his hand from her hand, and Aunt Chang did not react in the slightest. She had long forgotten that there was such a person as Jiang Wei by her side.

Jiang Wei found that his burned palm didn't hurt at all, he raised the burned palm, and under the faint blue light, he saw a black piece of palm, but the wound seemed to have healed.

"Could it be the effect ......of this blue light," Jiang Wei thought to himself, "Does this blue UFO have anything to do with those monsters above?" What is it doing here? He stared at the blue light in the sky in confusion.

There was a tall young woman in the crowd who caught Jiang Wei's attention. The woman looked like she was in her twenties, or less than thirty, but she was really tall, a head taller than everyone around her.

She should be a big beauty, Jiang Wei thought to himself.

She was tall and long-legged, walking slowly through the crowd, her black hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall, swaying lightly with her steps. She has a special temperament that makes her stand out from the rest.

Jiang Wei kept staring at her in fascination.

She seemed to sense that someone was paying attention to her, and she suddenly turned her head and glanced at Jiang Wei from a distance through the crowd. Her face is very beautiful, her facial features are very delicate, her eyes are beautiful and charming, and her eyes are deep and distant.

Jiang Wei's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat, and he felt that he was in love with that woman in an instant......

Most teenagers of Jiang Wei's age will like mature women who are a little older than themselves. And Jiang Wei not only likes older women, but also tall women, even if the other party is a little taller than himself, he can't help but be infatuated, just like now.

The image of the tall woman almost satisfied all of Jiang Wei's fantasies about the lover of his dreams.

Jiang Wei waited for her to turn back and no longer look at herself, and began to quickly overtake the person in front of her, chasing the beautiful tall woman in the crowd.

Like a shrewd cheetah, he silently crossed the bushes, approaching his prey little by little.
