Chapter 248: Heavy rain hits
Zheng Guo put Dong Ming Cao into his backpack, fantasizing about food in his mind, feeling comfortable and happy.
I looked around, there was nothing else, I turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly there was a strange feeling in the back of my neck, as if I had been pierced by something.
Zheng Guo subconsciously turned his head and looked towards the top of the cliff.
A dark figure was standing on it.
Because the figure happened to have its back to the sun, and in the contrast of the light, all it saw was a cloud of darkness.
After a moment, the figure turned its head away from Zheng Guo's field of vision.
Probably just a beast passing by.
Now that it had left, Zheng Guo didn't think much about it and turned to leave.
……
……
Outpost, medical room.
Wu An broke four ribs, one of which was inserted into his left lung, his heart was shattered, and his cervical spine was also somewhat misaligned.
He leaned on the edge of the bed and struggled towards the window. With every step, my whole body felt like it was going to fall apart.
Pull back the curtains and let in the harsh sunlight outside.
He raised his hand to shield it, allowing his eyes to adjust to the light.
The medical room has a wide view, and on a sunny day, you can overlook the grassland at the foot of the mountain.
However, today it was cloudy, and the halfway up the mountain was obscured by clouds, and the view was blocked.
Wu An fell into deep thought.
The White King is still alive.
Obviously, it is here for revenge.
The harassment and attacks on the Institute these days were all caused by that snowy night ten years ago.
Wu An's thoughts drifted back in time.
On that day, researchers captured a female white carp and wanted to use it for a scientific experiment.
Because of the low temperature on the mountain, some precision equipment could not operate normally, so it had to be sent down the mountain.
However, the night before the transfer, the institute was invaded by a herd of white minks, who came face to face with a white king and shot and wounded it.
Come to think of it, it does have a reason to retaliate.
But why should it wait 10 years?
Rest? Grow?
Unknown.
But it doesn't matter anymore, the point now is that they're already eyeing the outposts, and they're not going to give up easily.
He had always felt that it was absolutely stupid to hunt the white pike for some kind of Rausch experiment.
But the guys who do scientific research don't think so, and instead see it as a victory.
They accidentally found a embryo in the body of the female Bai Xiu, and using that embryo, they conducted genetic hybridization experiments to create Subject 13, which is what they call Walker.
When Wu An was eating in the cafeteria, he heard from several scientific researchers that Xingzhi was the most successful experimental individual so far, successfully fusing the genes of humans and baixiu, so that certain traits of humans could be expressed.
The most prominent, and surprising, manifestation is intelligence.
Subject 13's intelligence is far superior to that of Bai Qi, and close to that of a human.
Seeing the excitement of the scientific researchers, Wu An disagreed.
He couldn't understand why he wasted money and material resources to make a mongrel, and in his opinion, this was even a bit against human ethics.
Human-animal hybridization? Just think about it.
The current situation can be said to be completely caused by the willfulness of those scientific researchers.
He believes that the harassment of Bai Xiu will not stop there, and they will continue to cause trouble.
The institute barely withstood this siege, but what about next time? What about next time?
As long as he thought of this question, Wu An's chest seemed to be pressed by something, and he couldn't breathe.
Lao Gu has already submitted an application to the headquarters to increase the security budget, but he doesn't know when it will be approved.
He doesn't understand business matters, he only knows that with the current armed forces of the outpost, it won't be able to resist for long.
In the event of an accident at the outpost, he is primarily responsible, after all, he is the captain in charge of the guards.
Wu An sighed and was about to go back to bed to lie down for a while, when he suddenly heard a burst of rolling thunder.
Looking down the hill through the window, I saw a cloudy cloud halfway up the mountain, apparently a heavy rain brewing.
It should be a wooded area, and only there will be cloudy weather phenomena.
Anyway, it hasn't rained for a long time.
……
……
Heavy rain will come as soon as it is said.
Before Zheng Guo could find shelter, the rain had already poured down his face.
“…… As mentioned before, the wooded area has a lot of terrain and rain. The air is uplifted by the topography and the water vapor condenses......"
Zheng Guo braved the rain to hurry, trying to find a place to shelter from the rain.
However, the clouds in the sky were unusually thick, blocking all the sunlight, causing the woods to be as dark as night, and the visibility was only a few meters, and the search for shelter was a matter of complete luck.
Wow - Wow -
The sound of rain washing through was everywhere.
Zheng Guo hates this feeling, as if he is dominated by nature, and there is nowhere to escape.
Zheng Guo could only continue to move forward like a fly without a head.
After walking like a headless fly for nearly ten minutes, he suddenly saw a large tree in front of him.
The roots are intertwined and the foliage is luxuriant, and it seems to shelter from the rain.
Zheng Guo didn't have time to think about it, and immediately quickened his pace.
Rushing into the canopy of the big tree in one go, his body suddenly lightened, as if he had unloaded some burden.
The noise was also reduced instantly.
Zheng Guo breathed a sigh of relief, wiped his face, and looked up.
There was still rain trickling down the cracks in the canopy, but it was much better than outside.
As a temporary shelter, this place is undoubtedly qualified.
Zheng Guo took off his backpack and hung it on a broken branch of the tree trunk, then took off his jacket and began to wring it out.
The walker also quietly slipped under the tree, but on the other side of the tree, there was a trunk to obscure it, and the camera could not see it.
"In general, the amount of topographic rain increases with altitude, reaches a maximum, and then begins to decrease again. It looks like I'm just within the range of the rainfall maximum. Zheng Guo twisted it a few times, put the crumpled shirt on his body, and looked outside, "But don't worry, everyone, the terrain rain won't last too long, at most half an hour ......"
An hour passed......
The rain was still falling, and it had lessened a lot, but the sky was still cloudy, and it was still dark in the woods.
Zheng Guo stood at the edge of the canopy shelter area, looked up at the sky, and said, "Look, the rain has decreased, and it should stop soon, although it will take longer than expected......
An hour and a half passed......
The rain is still falling, and the rain is back to its previous intensity, whoa—
Zheng Guo leaned against the trunk of the tree, looking at the rain curtain outside, and his ears were filled with the sound of raging rain.
"It's just a 'flashback', and sometimes that's what happens, and that's normal. After this wave of outbreaks, the rain should stop, everyone wait patiently......"
Two hours later......
Wow –
Three hours later......
Whoa, whoa, whoa—
The heavy rain still shows no signs of stopping.
