One moment it may be blue and cloudy, but the next moment it may be dark clouds rolling in and pouring rain.

This is exactly the case at this time, just in the blink of an eye, there are dark clouds outside, lightning and thunder, and soon the downpour begins to pour down, huge raindrops continue to blow on the glass of the spaceship, and then form a water curtain on the glass, making the scenery outside look even more hazy.

"Tsk, this view is really good~"

Li Jingxuan looked at the scenery outside, in a dark world, accompanied by a series of satisfactory lightning in the sky, it suddenly became as bright as day.

Li Jingxuan could even clearly see that on top of a tall tree, a group of apes were hiding in the trees and shivering, and the heavy rain in the sky was like the Milky Way pouring, it was too big, and it actually formed a water curtain, like a waterfall flowing.

"This AIDS is a resource in Africa, it is said that it first appeared on apes and eventually spread to humans, do you think it is possible for us to find something here that can cure AIDS?"

Liu Daoming is not in the mood to enjoy the scenery outside, he has been here for a few days, and he is already tired of seeing all kinds of scenery.

The main reason why he came to the African rainforest this time was to find a drug that could treat AIDS, and he and Li Jingxuan had been researching AIDS for several years.

Since they were in college, the two of them have been studying this thing, and even went to space and the moon to study the changes of HIV in vacuum and microgravity environments, and published many related research papers.

But until now, the two have still not been able to develop a drug that can really treat AIDS, so the two of them also set their sights on Africa and this vast land.

Africa is known as the origin of human beings, where the climate is hot all year round, there are many kinds of animals and plants, and the unique geographical environment has led to Africa being the birthplace of various diseases.

In the early days of the Age of Discovery, when Europeans had just begun to colonize Africa, they did not dare to go deep into the interior of Africa, and could only build some strongholds along the coast and rivers to carry out colonial plunder.

This is not because the local black uncles in Africa are very powerful and can defeat the European colonists, but because of the heat in Africa, there are many diseases, viruses, poisonous insects, poisonous snakes, etc.

After a long period of evolution, these local black uncles have been able to adapt to the environment here, but the colonists from Europe have been unable to adapt to such an environment, and they have suffered heavy casualties.

Later, with the continuous development of European medical technology, especially the emergence of microscopes, and the in-depth study of bacteria and viruses, Europeans were able to gradually go deep into this ancient land to colonize it.

After the research of scientists, AIDS is also generally believed to have originated in Africa, and the source is a chimpanzee carrying the SIV virus, which is considered to be the ancestor of the HIV virus, and the HIV virus evolved on the basis of the SIV virus.

People in Africa were infected with the virus by eating chimpanzees carrying the SIV virus, which mutated in humans and eventually evolved into the HIV virus that the world smelled about.

Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan, who have studied the HIV virus for many years, also expressed support for this view, so in order to be able to develop drugs for the treatment of the HIV virus, the two also entered the tropical rainforest.

"I don't know."

Li Jingxuan smiled and shook his head and said.

"However, every day we can make new discoveries, and we are not in vain."

"Well, tomorrow we're going to catch some chimpanzees and see if the chimpanzees in this area carry the SIV virus."

Liu Daoming nodded and looked outside.

The heavy rain came and went quickly, and as soon as the two of them finished eating, the pouring rain outside disappeared cleanly, and the bright moon began to appear, casting a hazy veil on the rainforest, and the rainforest also began to think of bursts of screams, as if celebrating the passing of the heavy rain.

Early the next morning, Liu Daoming got up early.

Coming to the outside of the anti-gravity spaceship, the air is exceptionally fresh, itself is in the rainforest, and it rained heavily last night, and the air is shocking just by taking a breath.

Soon, after breakfast, Liu Daoming and his team began to act in the rainforest again.

"Where did the apes you saw last night go?"

In the dense tropical rainforest, Liu Daoming held a telescope to search among the tall trees above his head from time to time, and the sound of apes and roaring kept coming from his ears, but he could never find them.

"Over here~"

"Chase~"

"Anesthetize a few with a tranquilizer gun and draw a little of their blood."

Liu Daoming kept chasing these apes in the rainforest, this kind of ape with gray hair did not look much different from other apes, and Liu Daoming just treated them as the most ordinary apes.

In the end, after more than ten minutes, Liu Daoming and the others followed the group of apes to a relatively empty area, and in the center of this area, there was a very thick tree.

The diameter of this big tree is more than ten meters, up to hundreds of meters, very thick, the crown is also very large, the vines wrapped around the trunk are the thickness of an adult's arm, and it is full of red flowers.

The red color of this flower is not ordinary red, but the kind that is so red that it seems to drip out, like blood, a piece of red, like a flame.

At the same time, this big tree is also full of red fruits, this red fruit is only the size of a hawthorn, so delicate that people can't help but want to pick a few and taste it.

"What kind of tree is this?"

Liu Daoming, Li Jingxuan and others carefully observed this tall tree, such a tall tree is rare in this primeval rainforest.

What's more important is this kind of tree that has never been seen before, and this red flower, red fruit.

"Be careful, I didn't find this kind of tree in the database, it should be a species that has not yet been discovered, and this red flower and fruit should also be highly poisonous."

Li Jingxuan used the virtual machine he carried with him to search for strength, and he couldn't find the information of this kind of tree in the database, nor could he find the information of this flower and this kind of fruit.

However, in the wilderness, the brighter things are, the more terrifying, just like mushrooms, and most of the bright red mushrooms are poisonous mushrooms.

"Those apes are eating this red fruit~"

Liu Daoming looked at the top of the tree with a telescope, and soon, he couldn't help but scream, the group of apes that he and others were tracking were constantly eating red fruits on this big tree.

"Huh~~"

With a few small gunshots, the apes quickly staggered and fell headlong down.

"Everyone rushed to collect samples and record everything here."

Liu Daoming, Li Jingxuan and others began to get busy.

"This big tree is at least thousands of years old, as for how many years it is, I have to go back to the laboratory for laboratory testing to be able to know accurately~"

"It's really rare to see such an old tree, and the key thing is that this tree seems to be very healthy."

Li Jingxuan carefully observed this ancient tree, it was very vigorous, and the traces of the years were very clearly displayed on it, and a sense of vicissitudes came to him.

He took out a short knife and stabbed it lightly at the trunk of the tree, and suddenly it was like stabbing into the body of an animal, and a red liquid like blood gushed out.

"I'm going to ~ this tree is still fine ~"

Li Jingxuan's whole person was taken aback, and then he took out the utensils to collect the red liquid flowing from the ancient tree.

"Is it a dragon's blood tree?"

Liu Daoming thought for a while and said.

"No, the dragon's blood tree is just a kind of potted plant, it can't grow so big at all, and the shape, leaves, flowers, fruits, etc. of this tree don't match anything, it's definitely not a dragon's blood tree."

Then, Liu Daoming quickly shook his head, before coming to this tropical rainforest, Liu Daoming had conducted in-depth research on all kinds of plants, and he was also very clear about all kinds of plants and so on.

Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan's team were busy around this big tree, and some people collected and took pictures of everything, and even recorded the surrounding environment, plants, etc., so that they could be carefully compared after going back.

Some people collect red flowers, red forehead fruits, and even cut off some trees and vines to make signs; There are also people who take samples of the surrounding soil so that they can go back and analyze the trace elements in the soil, and even bring back some small insects in the soil for study.

The whole team was busy for more than an hour, collecting all kinds of samples.

"Go back, I have a hunch that we may have a big harvest today."

Seeing that everyone was busy, Liu Daoming also waved his hand, he was really a little impatient, every time he encountered a new and exotic plant, he would feel extremely excited, and wanted to figure out the characteristics of this plant and its medicinal value as soon as possible.
