Chapter 39, disaster is coming
"Ding Xiu, lie down." After Chen Jiansen helped Shen You up, he replaced Ding Xiu to come up for an examination.
The instrument was connected to his body, Ding Xiu suddenly became a little nervous, he was looking forward to good luck to favor him again, after all, the red crystal nucleus was fought for his life.
"Oh my God!" Chen Jiansen exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention.
"Uncle Chen, what kind of ability is it?" If it weren't for the equipment still connected to his body, Ding Xiu would have gotten up and come to the screen.
"No new abilities appeared." Chen Jiansen said.
"Huh?!" Ding Xiu looked at Chen Jiansen with a disappointed face.
"You kid...... The ability to improve is so fast! Chen Jiansen looked at the data on the screen and was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
"Well, I thought there was a new ability." Ding Xiu was a little regretful, the previous excitement disappeared without a trace, "It would be nice if there was another 'madness'." ”
"You kid be content." Chen Jiansen said with a smile: "There are few people in this world who can improve so quickly as you have during this time. ”
He turned the screen around, took off the equipment on Ding Xiu's body, pointed to the data on the screen and said, "You don't have to look at the rest, just watch here." ”
Chen Jiansen tapped a place on the screen with his finger: "This is the combat effectiveness obtained by the instrument to detect your body, 36." Remember that your combat power value was 18 when you tested it last time, which is only double that of 5~10 for ordinary people, and now it is twice as high, so what is there to be dissatisfied. ”
Seeing Ding Xiu smile embarrassedly, he said again, "Of course, it is important to improve your ability, but you must remember that safety comes first, and when a person dies, there is nothing." ”
"Got it, Uncle Chen." Ding Xiu nodded.
"By the way, do you remember the location of the corpse of the Death Worm?" Chen Jiansen asked at him.
"Remember, what's wrong?"
"I'll send someone over tomorrow to see if I can collect some materials on the corpse, and you can lead the way."
"Doctor Chen, the corpse of the Death Worm has already been collected by us, why don't we share some with you?" Gu Beimo suddenly took over and said, "Everything is in the car, you come with us to take a look." ”
Gu Beimo wants to find the eggs of bullet ants in the desert, Ding Xiu's camp is an excellent place to stay, he pays attention to Chen Jiansen in Zhang Zhixiong, and knows that although Chen Jiansen's identity is a doctor, his status in the camp must not be low, so he has the heart to make friends.
"How many corpses are left of the Death Worm?" Chen Jiansen didn't accept his gift immediately, because the body of the death worm was more than ten meters long, Gu Beimo couldn't collect the materials at one time, he didn't like to owe favors in vain, when Ding Xiu wanted to give him the thin wings of the mutated mole cricket, he didn't ask for anything in vain.
"It's about 60 percent complete." Gu Beimo roughly estimated.
"I understand the kindness, since there are so many left, there is no need to divide your materials." Chen Jiansen politely rejected Gu Beimo's kindness.
After coming out of Chen Jiansen's hospital, Ding Xiu sent Gu Beimo and Shen You to the place where they were settled, and then went back to the dormitory.
As soon as Ding Xiu left, there was no one nearby, and Shen You began to complain to Gu Beimo.
"Dead old Gu, the materials we finally got halfway through, you don't discuss it with me, you have to give it to others as soon as you open your mouth!"
The girl's apricot eyes were round, and her pursed mouth could hang an oil jug on it.
"Hey, if we're looking for bullet ant eggs in this desert, we must have a place to stay. I saw that Brother Ding Xiu and that Dr. Chen were both righteous and straightforward people, and I would have to rely on them more in the future. Gu Beimo explained to her, seeing that the little girl's anger was still not gone, he touched her head, "If you are willing to give up, you will have to give up." ”
"Hmph, it's just that you have a lot of reason." Shen You turned his face away, and actually cried "humble".
"What's wrong with you?" Gu Beimo saw that she was suddenly in a somewhat abnormal mood, and he was confused by the second monk in his heart.
"Old Gu, we're running out of money again." The girl whispered, with tears in her voice.
"Am I not making money when I run out of money?" Gu Beimo saw that he was worried about money, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"But have you ever wondered what if we don't find the eggs of the bullet ants and can't make any money? I'm going to die! ”
Shen You's words made Gu Beimo stunned, and then she understood what she was worried about.
Shen You's physical condition is a little special, she can actively secrete pheromones suitable for most animals and insects according to her consciousness, which is the means for girls to communicate with insects and animals. In the past ten years by Gu Beimo's side, she has eaten many low-quality crystal nuclei, and most of the money earned by the two of them has been used to buy these crystal nuclei.
Although the girl eats a lot of crystal nuclei, the biological energy in the crystal nucleus cannot bring her ability to improve, and can only prolong her life. In Gu Beimo's words, God opened a window for her, but closed another door.
Chen Jiansen's previous judgment was not wrong, the girl's ability to reach the peak in pheromones came from the congenital gene mutation, her genes changed, and while producing this ability, it also left a disease.
Shen You needs to replenish her bio-energy through the crystal nucleus continuously, and if the bio-energy is cut off, her body will stop growing and will soon begin to shrink and even die.
When Gu Beimo adopted her, he actually asked about the girl's parents from the orphanage, Shen You's mother discovered her strange disease when she gave birth to her, and soon after the family became destitute because of her treatment, and when her father died unexpectedly due to overwork, her mother also abandoned her.
In the orphanage, Shen Youben didn't live long, but Lady Luck helped her meet Gu Beimo.
Gu Beimo somewhat understood the girl's mood and knew why she was sad. She is insecure about life, so she is obsessed with accumulating money.
When she met Ding Xiu, Shen You's first thought was to plan to kill people and sell goods, because she and Gu Beimo's funds were close to running out, otherwise the two would not have ventured to the desert to look for the eggs of bullet ants.
Gu Beimo didn't agree to rob Ding Xiu, and later took the initiative to send Chen Jiansen materials, which made the girl's heart full of frustration, and she felt that her life was not valued by her peers.
"Don't cry, Xiaoyou, when did my old Gu ever make a loss-making deal?" Gu Beimo wanted to understand the problem, so he opened his mouth to persuade.
"It seems to be the same." His words made the girl stunned.
Shen You raised his head and looked at Gu Beimo: "But I'm really afraid of death." ”
"I won't let you die, your 'medicine jar' has pit me for ten years, so that my daughter-in-law can't be found, and I have no children and no daughters when I am old. Later, when I get old, you have to support me. Gu Beimo coaxed her in a half-joking, half-serious tone, and finally made the girl burst into tears and laughed again.
Early the next morning, Chen Jiansen sent two large military trucks to follow Ding Xiu and Gu Beimo to move together. Three cars headed for the location of the dead worm's corpse, and the truck was also carrying equipment such as a small crane.
The convoy was driving on the endless sand dunes, Gu Beimo asked Ding Xiu about the situation in this desert, although he had done some research before coming here, but now he had Ding Xiu such a guide by his side, so he naturally would not miss the opportunity to learn more information.
The three of them chatted about the Karakum Desert, and Ding Xiu also talked about some mutant creatures and sandpeople.
As the convoy approached the location of the corpse of the Death Worm, a group of Steppenwolves were moving near the corpse, they had eaten and drunk enough, saw three cars approaching in the distance, watched for a moment, and then fled away.
The car stopped next to the corpse of the giant worm.
The wolves have fled far away, they are very shrewd creatures, and after they have eaten their fill, they will not fight for their lives with powerful enemies.
"That's it." Ding Xiu got out of the car and shouted at the robe behind him.
"You killed this?" The soldiers were surprised: "Awesome, Ding Xiu." ”
"It's the first time I've seen such a big monster in my life."
"How did you do that, Ding Xiu?"
"That...... Do you still need people from the fourth squad? Yes...... Lao Xue, don't look at me like this, I just ask, I don't have the idea of changing teams. ”
The corpse had begun to decompose slightly, and Ding Xiu helped the other soldiers use equipment to cut the corpse of the giant worm and load it into the cart.
"It's a bit of a shame to let those wolves run away." Shen You looked at the direction in which the wolves were far away, and muttered a few words: "Old Gu, why don't we chase it, if you are lucky, you can also find the crystal nucleus from the Steppenwolf." ”
"Let's get down to business, we're not here to hunt, and if we chase them, we'll definitely be able to kill those wolves?"
"Why are you getting more and more cowardly, old Gu." Shen You has developed the habit of complaining about Gu Beimo when he has nothing to do, the little girl is a little rude and willful, but this is also Gu Beimo's favorite.
Gu Beimo had no children and no daughters, and raised Shen You as a daughter, and he himself had no experience as a parent, so the girl's personality gradually became perverse under his casual education method.
"Be careful when cutting this part, if the subcutaneous tissue in the middle is destroyed, the cost performance of the material will be much lower." Idle, Gu Beimo went over to instruct the soldiers who were cutting operations, he had studied the materials on various mutant creatures, so when he saw that the soldiers' operation methods were wrong, he hurriedly helped them correct them.
was busy, a gust of hot wind blew, Shen You suddenly sniffed, and his brows were twisted into the word "Sichuan".
"Old Gu!"
"What's wrong?" Gu Beimo was instructing those soldiers, and turned his head to answer.
"Come here." Shen You beckoned to him.
Gu Beimo patted the shoulder of a soldier beside him, and after explaining a few more words, he walked towards the girl.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"Something is wrong."
"What?!" Gu Beimo's expression became solemn.
"The wind just now brought a pheromone, very strong, very strong." Shen You looked in the direction where the wind was blowing, her eyes narrowed in the sunlight, and suddenly they glared again.
"What's that?" The girl pointed to the stretch of sand dunes in the distance, where a long black line was emerging.
