Chapter 11: The Effect of Gemstones (4 Watches)
After everyone in the room introduced themselves, they officially entered today's discussion.
"Old man, how do you feel today, do you feel it... Well, do you feel a lot better than before? ”
General Meng asked Lao Dao uncertainly. Lao Dao looked at General Meng in confusion and asked.
"What did General Meng say about this?"
General Meng paused, as if he was organizing the language, and then said after a while.
"That's right, after we picked you up, we did a comprehensive examination of your body, the strange thing is that your body functions seem to be degenerating rapidly, that is, your body functions are constantly improving, in the current situation, your physical condition can be completely comparable to the physical state of a 40-year-old middle-aged person, but your appearance has not changed at all, which makes us very puzzled."
Lao Dao was also stunned when he heard General Meng say this, then stood up and moved, snorted lightly, and then sat down uncertainly.
"General Meng, if you don't say it, I don't care too much, when you say this, it seems to be true, and I myself feel that my body is full of strength. But why is that? ”
General Meng looked at Shi Lei beside him, nodded to him, and Shi Lei spoke.
"Old man, we have tested the 18 stones we brought back, and found that those 18 stones are full of a huge amount of unknown radioactive energy, and you said that there were 19 stones in the box before, so we speculate that the changes in your body should be caused by the missing stone, in other words, that stone may have merged with your body."
As soon as this sentence came out, Lao Dao's heart that had been ancient for decades was also turbulent, and his face was full of disbelief and worry.
Seeing Lao Dao's appearance, General Meng hurriedly explained.
"Don't worry, old man, at least we haven't found out that the stone will have any negative impact on you now, so you don't have to worry."
Lao Dao waved his hand and said after a moment of silence.
"That's it, the old man once said, Lao Dao I will experience something when I am 80 years old, whether it is good or bad, I don't know, Lao Dao is exactly 80 this year, this is fate, General Meng, you don't have to worry about me, but I still don't understand, what are these gems for, why did that spaceship place him in front of me."
The conference room was silent, and it was only a few days since they got these things, and they didn't come up with a reason, so no one could answer the old question.
Speaking of this, Lao Dao looked at Cheng Ming and said.
"Cheng Jushi, you should also know the rest of the matter, I think you have already read the things in that diary."
Cheng Ming was silent, this amount of information is a bit large, according to the old way, that light blue gem can actually be integrated into the human body and improve human body functions, but why can't other gemstones? Or why did aliens put these gems on Earth, and what was their purpose? What is the relationship between these aliens who invaded the earth later and those aliens who sent gems before?
There are too many questions for Cheng Ming to be puzzled and unable to figure it out.
"Real person, after that gem is fused with you, does it have any effect other than improving physical functions? And what is that information, have you researched it? ”
Lao Dao shook his head and said after listening to Cheng Ming's question.
"No, there is nothing but the dream we had at the beginning, and as for the information, we haven't studied it yet. And the location of these research bases is exactly where the dream I had at the time was designated. ”
Cheng Ming fell into contemplation again, and after a while, Cheng Ming suddenly thought of something, and asked the old man uncertainly.
"Real person, you shouldn't have come this time to let me fuse this gem!"
Lao Dao looked at Cheng Ming and smiled, did not answer directly, but said to himself.
"We guess that these gems will choose to fuse with individuals, that is to say, not everyone can fuse with gemstones, and only by meeting certain conditions can they fuse with them, and this condition, we do not know. In the same way, we can't be sure what kind of effect they will have when they merge, as I told you before, maybe this is a big turnaround, or maybe it is the beginning of a catastrophe. Are you willing to try? ”
Cheng Ming was silent, he felt that he was silent more times today than he had been silent in the previous half of his life, but what could he do, this kind of thing, who could make a decision so quickly.
"Dad, Grandpa, what are you doing?"
Just when Cheng Ming didn't know how to choose, a crisp girl came from the door, and they turned around to see that Ke'er and Lin Fan were standing in the laboratory looking at them.
Lao Dao turned and walked towards the door, and said to the two little ones.
"Grandpa is chatting with your dad, do you two little ones want to listen to the story?"
In this era, there are no TVs, computers, tablets and mobile phones, so the biggest fun for the little ones is to listen to the adults call stories, and when they hear that the old man wants to tell them a story, the two little guys jump up and down happily, and pull the old way to go to the bedroom, and the old man did not shirk, but at the moment of leaving, he turned back and smiled at Cheng Ming.
After the old way left, Cheng Ming sat alone on the opposite side of the crystal cabinet, looking at the earthy yellow gem inside, his thoughts suddenly returned to the past, back to the era before the catastrophe, although he didn't have much money at that time, but life was very nourishing, every day he had dinner and walked with his wife, and occasionally went to the restaurant to improve his life, not very luxurious, but very warm.
Thinking of this, he unconsciously touched the watch on his wrist, which was given to Cheng Ming by Cheng Ming's wife, Cheng Ming touched the watch and said to himself.
"Cher, what do you think I should do? Kerr is still so young that she can't live independently, if the result of the attempt is not good, what should Kerr do? ”
"That can't let Ke'er live like this hopelessly, you say."
A female voice sounded from Cheng Ming's side, Cheng Ming was shocked, the voice was so pleasant, so familiar, Cheng Ming turned his head with difficulty to look at the woman next to him, and a fair and tight face appeared in front of his eyes.
"Husband, I miss you so much."
The woman gently rested her head on Cheng Ming's shoulder, and the familiar feeling made Cheng Ming unconsciously reach out and hug the woman's shoulder and say.
"Cher, I miss you so much."
The two of them sat quietly and didn't say a word for a long time.
"Xue'er, I know it's a dream, although I don't want to wake up and want to be by your side all the time, but we still have Ke'er, you're right, we can't let the child live without hope."
I don't know how long it took, Cheng Ming looked at his wife and said.
"Husband, I believe in you, you also have to believe in yourself, for the sake of our daughter, you must persevere."
The woman slowly faded by Cheng Ming's side until she disappeared, Cheng Ming's hand still maintained the posture just now, unchanged, but assured the woman in her heart that she would definitely persevere.
After a while, Cheng Ming withdrew his hand and said calmly.
"Real person, this is actually a kind of ability after you fused that stone."
"Maybe, have you figured it out?" Lao Dao's voice sounded from behind Cheng Ming.
"It's fake, but thank you, let's get started, tell me what to do."
