Chapter 166: The New Human Era
Seeing Jiang Mubai running in a panic, Liu Shengyuan laughed happily.
"You were more embarrassed than him when you broke through the ninth orifice, how could you laugh."
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and Liu Shengyuan put away his smiling face and looked back at the singularity.
Wang Qinheng was still standing on the edge of the alloy load-bearing platform, his big cow-like eyes half-open, and his lips tightly closed.
"Brother Heng?"
Liu Shengyuan called tentatively, and then the voice appeared again.
"You go to the ashram first, and I'll be there later."
Liu Shengyuan blinked his eyes, raised his hand and rubbed his earlobe, with his ability to hear, he couldn't hear the direction of the sound.
Perhaps, Brother Heng didn't make a sound at all, he thought to himself, if it weren't for the sound waves transmitted into the ear canal using air as a medium, he would naturally not be able to tell the direction.
"Sister Ru." Liu Shengyuan bent down and whispered to Liu Ru, who was more than forty centimeters shorter beside him, "I have something to do, will you go back first in a while?" ”
"Okay." Liu Ru's mind was confused by the beauty in front of her, and she didn't care about her cousin at all.
Seeing that his cousin was staring at Lin Chujin and swallowing saliva, Liu Shengyuan shook his head with a wry smile, turned around and walked quickly to Wang Qinheng's special retreat room.
The ashram is built underground, the whole is spherical, composed of concrete, fiberglass soundproof cotton, and double-layer insulated steel walls, and a total of 108 sound-absorbing circles are carved in the room, blocking the sound wave propagation path in all directions.
When the passage closes, there is a silence comparable to that of space.
Gravity is still there, so there is still a difference between up and down in a confined space, but the direction of the front and back, left and right is no longer clear after the sound disappears, because sound is an important clue to maintain the balance of action and perception.
In the silent and claustrophobic environment, Liu Shengyuan unloaded the sword box, sat cross-legged on the futon, and quietly listened to the sound coming from his body.
At this time, his continuously functioning body is the only source of sound, the heart beating, the gastrointestinal peristalsis, the heart and lungs fluctuating, and the joints moving...... Sounds that are not normally perceptible and inaudible were clearly discernible in the ashram, and he could even hear the sound of blood running in his veins.
Here, the scale of time seems to be stretched by some kind of power.
After twelve cycles of breathing that were longer than ever, the passage into the ashram opened again, and a large head poked out from outside.
There was a gurgling in his head, like thousands of little people huddled in it arguing.
Liu Shengyuan stood up and called respectfully: "Brother Heng." ”
"Hmm." Wang Qinheng nodded slightly, walked in front of Liu Shengyuan, raised his arm and smiled, "I've grown taller again." ”
Liu Shengyuan bent down extremely cooperatively, so that Wang Qinheng could pat his hand on his shoulder without effort, and he agreed with a little pride and a little distress: "Yes, it is five and a half inches longer than last year, and it is said that the bones have not been completely shaped, and it will be two more years longer." ”
"It's good, with the current size, it's also a seven-foot man." Wang Qinheng patted his right shoulder, "Okay, let's get down to business." ”
"Good!" Liu Shengyuan nodded heavily, then opened the sword case and took out a thin tablet from the hidden compartment of the box.
He clicked on the touchscreen a few times, and a small window in the screen quickly zoomed in.
In the picture, a man who looks like a young man and a middle-aged man is sitting on his lap, his shirt is neatly ironed, and there is not a trace of wrinkles in his blue and white coat.
The man looked straight ahead, his eyes calm and confident, as if his gaze could see everything in the world.
"Hello."
"I'm the chief scientific research officer of the Ten Thousand Years Yandi, Cao Gengchen."
Hearing that the man in the video reported his identity, Wang Qinheng lowered his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "Long admiration." ”
Liu Shengyuan opened his mouth, but he didn't speak, he remembered that Brother Heng was far more familiar with electronic devices than him, and he knew that this was a pre-recorded video without reminding.
"First of all, on behalf of all the soldiers of the Ten Thousand Years Yan Emperor, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you."
"Then, Mr. Wang, my gratitude to you, no, gratitude, is sincere, so I won't talk nonsense to you."
Cao Gengchen said, Yang Qi tore the paper manuscript in his hand in half.
Then he stood up, revealing his beach pants under his shirt.
"Thanks to your help, the progress of the endoskeleton modification project has progressed by leaps and bounds in the past few years, and this is our latest research result, please see."
The camera begins to pan, and thick leg hair and flip-flops flash, followed by an electronic pattern projected on a large screen.
Countless dots and lines outline the shape of the human body, but hidden beneath the surface is an endoskeletal system that is very different from that of normal humans.
In the upper right corner of the pattern, several bold and enlarged Arabic numerals stand out.
1260.
"One thousand two hundred and sixty, a little more than I guessed." Wang Qinheng squinted his eyes and whispered to himself.
"As you can see, the endoskeletal system marked in the diagram contains a total of 1,260 bones, which is more than six times the number of normal human bodies. The complex and sophisticated endoskeleton structure will give the human body more powerful adaptability and combat ability, taking the skeletal structure supporting the core area as an example......"
Cao Gengchen held a laser pointer and explained the pattern, Wang Qinheng nodded again and again, but Liu Shengyuan was confused.
After a forty-minute explanation, Cao Gengchen put away the laser pointer, lifted his loose beach pants, and said with a serious expression: "At present, the 602 Research Institute of Huajing University is exploring the combined application of mechanical prosthetics and new endoskeleton systems, and there have been many far-reaching achievements in the research of the third realm martial arts. In the next step, our goal is to cultivate the fourth realm of martial arts and cleanse the marrow. ”
"Oh?" Wang Qinheng raised his eyebrows, very surprised.
It was extremely difficult to study the third realm of the transcendent beginning, even if his head was so much bigger than Cao Gengchen's, it was difficult for him to tolerate the idea of studying the Martial Cultivation of the Purifying Realm.
"Before opening up the Inner Heaven and Earth, all the cultivation methods of martial cultivation can be regarded as converting Spiritual Energy into Biological Energy, and the physical body is a tool for transforming and using Spiritual Energy. Aside from the human body's secret storage, qi induction and other abilities, there are three main purposes for transforming the physical body with aura, one is to expand the capacity, the second is to improve the utilization efficiency, and the third is to improve the limit of use. ”
"After many experiments, I think we may have discovered the fundamental difference between the marrow washing realm and the bone forging realm, the difference at the cellular level. If we can make a breakthrough in this direction, then one day we may be able to develop semi-autonomous organelles that absorb Reiki energy and convert it into bioenergy. ”
Speaking of which, Cao Jiaochen looked directly at the camera, his gaze as if he was about to penetrate the screen.
In a firm and firm tone, he said word by word: "At that time, we will usher in a truly new era of mankind!" ”
