The crowd simply disposed of Shirley's body.

Now everyone is tired and tired, and they have just fought with those baby monsters, and now they can finally take a break.

I was ashamed, so I apologized to Professor Ouyang, although I didn't kill Xueli directly, but the apology can make me feel a little better, Professor Ouyang is a professor after all, knowledgeable, he didn't blame me, just said in a heavy tone, "There is a certain risk in doing our business, and sometimes life and death are not controlled by ourselves, and I blame me, I underestimated this action, thinking that it was just a simple archaeological work, so I took my students out to open their eyes, and wanted to combine practice and theory with teaching, But I didn't expect things to be more complicated than I thought. ”

Hearing this, I interrupted Professor Ouyang, "Actually, if I had arrived earlier, maybe things wouldn't have been like this. ”

"Don't blame yourself, Xiaoying told me just now, you and the fat brother in order to cover her and Dachangtong's safe retreat, the two of them sacrificed their lives to fight with those parasites, this spirit of sacrificing their lives for righteousness is also commendable!" Professor Ouyang said this, maybe he was depressed, and took the initiative to ask me for a cigarette, seeing that he was sucking deeply and exhaling when he smoked, it can be seen that he is now under great pressure in his heart, so he is a respected old professor of archaeology who is a returnee, and he is also Taishan Beidou in the archaeological community, and his words are enough to play a pivotal role, regretting the archaeological community, but now he has a death and an injury when he takes a student out for an internship, and there is still no one who knows whether he is dead or alive.

Professor Ouyang said while smoking, "This experience is extremely dangerous compared to what I have experienced before, I have never encountered such a parasite, this time it really opened my eyes." ”

Parasite?! This was the third time I'd heard the word "parasite" used to describe those baby monsters, which I didn't really like, so I asked, "Professor!" Why do you all say they're parasites? Tell the truth! I think that I know and see one or two strange beasts, but this kind of monster is really something I have never seen or heard of. ”

"Who's to say it isn't!" Professor Ouyang let out a long sigh, "I also heard what Xiao Kai said, at first, a parasite came out to attack us, and was cut off by your brother Zhongyi, and then Xiao Kai used a microscope to study it and told us that it was a parasite that was not found in the biological world, and you can learn more about it with Xiao Kai." ”

At the moment, I thought to myself, we were actually attacked by these monsters, and we were still in this deep underground cave, and we could meet these monsters again at any time, or something like that, so we had to figure out what these monsters were, so that we could know that we would win all battles, which was also my Wu Nian's style and habit.

When I came to Xiao Kai's side, I found that he was still using a microscope to observe the rotten meat that had been blown up from those monsters, and the first question I asked was not about monsters, but about why there was such a big contrast between Xiao Kai's performance from the bottomless ghost cave where he first entered the ancient tomb of the Ba people and his current performance, as if he had grown up and become a lot braver along the way.

Xiao Kai stopped what he was doing and responded, "This experience has had a great impact on me, and at the same time, it also made me understand a truth, survival of the fittest!" In this kind of place, if I am not brave and strong, I will definitely die, and only by going all out can I have a chance of life, what do you say? Wu Ye! ”

Originally, I would usually smile with an appreciative attitude at this time, but now I really don't have any reason to laugh in this situation where I have just disposed of Xueli's corpse, I just have a blank face, patted Xiao Kai gently, and said lightly, "You have grown up, it's good." ”

"After all, it's a big man in Beijing, so you can't be afraid of it!" Xiao Kai said and went straight to the topic: "Master Wu! Come and see! I found that the parasites in the bodies of these monsters are beyond the norm, if I guess correctly, I'm afraid that the monsters we dealt with just now are not ordinary creatures that develop naturally according to the laws of nature! ”

"What do you mean by that?" I immediately became serious and uneasy.

"I'm afraid of ......," Xiao Kai didn't dare to continue with 100% certainty, "I'm afraid that the mutated creatures that have been biochemically taken over by parasites and forcibly occupied their bodies!" ”

What the?! I secretly screamed and hurriedly said, "I also doubted before that these creatures will be related to the laboratory above, as the saying goes, there is no impermeable wall, Mayor Guo They used to conduct biochemical experiments in the laboratory, if there is an accidental leakage of chemical gas, it can only be discharged into the underground, after all, the ancient tomb is absolutely closed to the outside, and it just so happened that Guo Feng opened a mine here, so naturally let the accidentally leaked biochemical gas be discharged to the place where we are now, and the creatures below have been affected by biochemical gas for many years, There will be some variation. ”

Kai agreed with my speculation and said, "Hmm! That's what I thought, too, and I noticed that the fat worms on these baby-like monsters had a habit similar to that of shrunken-headed fish lice. Speaking of this, he asked me rhetorically: "Master Wu!" Seeing that you also have research on biology, you must also know about the fish lice, right? ”

"Know a little bit about it!" As I spoke, I described what I knew: "The shrunken-headed fish lice is a kind of crustacean parasite, they run into the mouth of the fish when they are larvae, attach to the tongue of the fish, suck the blood of the fish through the tongue of the fish, until the tongue of the fish shrinks, and then connect their tail with the tongue that has shrunk to work instead of the tongue of the fish, in order to complete the transition from parasitism to symbiosis, this parasite looks terrifying, like alien creatures, but they are not poisonous. ”

Xiao Kai nodded and said, "Yes! But these parasites that live on the body of strange babies are not as scary as shrunken-headed fish lice, they have a real ability to harm people. In order to make me more clear, Xiao Kai explained it in detail.

"These things that look terrible are actually two species synthesis, mainly an amphibian unformed larvae as the main body, but the genes on these larvae have been changed by chemicals, so they will secrete some fluid that attracts parasites, and these parasites that grow outside its body are the eggs of the fish lice that have been soaked in chemical potions for a long time, and they are just hatched when they are adsorbed on the larvae of these amphibians through the flowing dark river, and grow up with the amphibians and become a part. When the larvae of the amphibian form their limbs, the parasites begin to transition from parasitism to symbiosis, sharing nerves and absorbing the same nutrients as the larvae. Xiao Kai said here and returned to the topic just now, "I just said that these parasites have the ability to harm people, that's because of the small meat thorns in the mouth of this monster, in fact, at first I thought it was a small meat thorn when I dissected the corpse, but when I carefully examined it, I found that it was not a meat thorn, it was a parasite, this parasite has a super secretion of hydrochloric acid liquid, this liquid can quickly corrupt muscle tissue in the case of sealing, so this monster has a round mouth with a pot sucking potential, the purpose is to facilitate eating." ”

Hearing this, I can't help but wonder how much pain Xueli suffered for a girl to die, the feeling of being corrupted by the flesh and body, not to mention a girl, presumably even a harshly trained special forces like a ghost can't stand it.

Xiao Kai also told me that the reason why those monsters were able to move after being cut in two was not that they were really immortal, but that they were indeed parasites that grew on the surface.

After I learned about these monsters invaded by parasites from Xiao Kai, everyone was ready to continue on their way, leaving this ghost place where no one wants to stay longer, but the problem is that going there has become our biggest problem now, I think I and the fat man found that the place where the MP18 * submachine gun was the one that could go out, so he proposed to let everyone go back, but the officer Wei was the first to object, he said, "Wu Nian, what do you want to do?" I said earlier that there is an exit from downstream, and now let's go back, I don't think you know the exit at all, just guessing. ”

I hurriedly explained, "Guard, believe me again, there is great hope for an exit on it, you see these MP18 * submachine * guns are the ones I and the fat man just found from above, have you ever wondered why these guns appear in the depths of the ground?" Don't you think that's weird? ……”

Before I could finish my sentence, the officer guard interrupted me, "You can assert that there is an outlet with just a few broken submachine guns, you are too hasty." Wu Nian! I suspect that your brain has been invaded, I have been worried about whether you will be infected when you were bitten by the dragon lice Gu in the ice warehouse before, so isn't Wang Zhicheng because of the Zhong Gu is not a ghost or a ghost, I now suspect that you are already in the process of mutation, so your judgment is wrong. ”

As soon as Officer Wei's words came out, everyone who was already panicked immediately became even more uneasy, as if they really believed Officer Wei's words, and they all thought that I was really invaded by the Gu poison of the dragon lice Gu as he said, and even looked at me with a monster look.

"Fart!" When the fat man heard Officer Wei's words, he couldn't help but retort to him, "I'll tell you Lao Wei!" If you don't go with us, then listen to the court, but don't talk nonsense, don't think that if you are the head of the bureau, Lao Tzu will not dare to clean you up, and if you dare to say a word nonsense, you will be beaten. As he spoke, he also put on a posture and face to do something with people.

Although the ghost didn't believe the words of the officer, he also objected to the fat man's attitude, and he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade the fat man, saying, "Everyone calm down!" Now is a time when there should be a united front, not infighting, why should people in the same boat have trouble with each other? Now the most important thing is to find the exit and get out of here. As he spoke, he said to the officer, "Guard! Let's look at the problem rationally, here Professor Ouyang and my brother Wu Nian are the most experienced in this area, let's let them discuss the route before making a conclusion. ”

Officer Wei said, "Although Wu Nian knows feng shui, can look at the stars and locate the stars, and look at the water to distinguish the way, but he is no longer him, his brain is estimated to have begun to mutate, confusing his judgment and analysis, I am not talking nonsense, from Xiaoying's injury to Xueli's tragic death, you are all obvious to all, it is all because Wu Nian insisted on taking the downstream route, isn't it?" ”

After a battle of words, Officer Wei insisted that he couldn't follow me, he insisted on taking the route he thought he had, and for a while everyone was unable to decide, and they didn't know whether to follow me or not?

In the end, Xiao Kai proposed to test my blood to know whether I was invaded by Gu poison, originally I was unwilling, because my blood was not an ordinary person, but in this special case, in order to convince the public, I had to sacrifice a drop of my precious blood, and gave Xiao Kai to take it under the microscope to see, this look doesn't matter, I almost didn't let Xiao Kai knock over the microscope, from the microscope he saw that there was something strange in my blood cells, which was a substance that did not belong to ordinary people, but due to insufficient equipment conditions, He couldn't tell what substance was in it, but now it's okay, all the people who were suspicious of me suddenly believed the words of the officer, saying that I let the Gu poison invade the brain, and now all my judgments are wrong.

The officer, who knew the results of the blood test, packed up his things and pointed to a cave across the dark river and said, "That hole is up, and the exit should be there!" If I go this way, who will come with me? ”

Seeing this, I was in a hurry, and when I was in a hurry, I made a mistake, and said, "If you want to die, take that road, that is the trap of death, so that you have no return!" After saying that, I realized that these words only gave me minus points rather than extra points, but the water that was spilled out of the words could not be recovered.

I can understand that other people have chosen to be with the officer, after all, they are all in contact with me for the first time, and it is human nature not to trust me, but what I never expected is that Lan Xin, who has experienced life and death many times with me, actually chose not to believe me, I wanted to call her before she left, but I hesitated for the sake of face, but the ghost stopped her at the moment of my hesitation, "Lan Xin!" Don't you know Wu Nian? Why don't you trust him? ”

"I'm sorry! I am also a police officer, and I also have my duty, which is to keep each of them safe! Please understand what I mean. Lan Xin said these words with a kind of eyes that I can't see through, and then turned around and left, her decision suddenly made my heart cold, there is an indescribable disappointment and loss, this feeling I have only had with Yanyu.

Just as Lan Xin turned his head and took a step towards the other side of the dark river, I woke up as if in a dream and shouted, "Wait a minute!" "I wasn't trying to persuade her, I just threw her those remaining bullet-filled MP18 submachine guns from the ghost, I should have said something! It is good to change the mind of Lanxin. But for some reason I didn't try to convince her, just quietly watched her back as she walked away to the other side of the river.

Before leaving, the officer said the last words to the ghost: "Loyalty!" Come with us, your brother is not the same brother you used to be, he ......" At this point, the officer glanced at me, pushed his glasses, and continued

"He's changed."

The ghost sighed softly and said flatly, "Thank you, Guard!" The three of us brothers said that life and death are together! I will not give up on my brother no matter what, and I believe that my brother has not changed. ”

Officer Wei saw that the persuasion was fruitless, helpless! He sighed, then turned around and left.

We set off after a group of them had left.
