Chapter 12: The Source of Change
"What the hell is this...?" Chu He was shocked again.
Old man Wu Ming ignored Chu He's horror, and as soon as he raised his eyebrows, he quickly ran towards the house that the woman rushed out of.
Chu He looked at Wu Ming's back, he already understood in his heart that this mysterious old man was obviously more than just the attending physician, so, what about Xiaoguang, Chu He followed Wu Ming quickly, but involuntarily, he kept a distance from Wu Ming.
Wu Ming was obviously very familiar with this place, and after two corners, he came to the door of what seemed to be a basement dark room, he opened the door and rushed in quickly, Chu He hesitated, and the person followed.
"Help me....help me... Help me...."
As soon as he entered the basement, Chu He heard a voice that seemed to be panicked, Chu He vaguely recognized that this was Xiaoguang, and his heart was slightly happy, he hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound, but he didn't want Wu Ming to be more surprised, and his movements were faster.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Doctor Wu is here, let's calm down, calm down..."
Chu He hurriedly followed, opened a slightly hidden door, and saw Doctor Wu soothing the restless Xiaoguang, Chu He watched silently, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't think of anything.
To appease Xiaoguang's emotions, Wu Ming sighed deeply, he took out an unknown cigarette from his pocket and slowly lit it.
"Captain Chu, don't you think it's weird?" A trace of confusion flashed in Wu Ming's eyes.
"Hmm...."Chu He closed the door and sat down with a sigh of relief, running up and down all the way, but he was tired.
"I'll just tell you, in fact, at this time, there is no need to hide it." Wu Ming thought about his dead brother Wu Jing, but there was a pain in his heart.
"Let's start from the beginning, the scene three months ago, I guess you didn't miss it, Captain Chu." Wu Ming took a sip and said slowly: "....our task is to start ....... three months ago"
Chu He had been listening silently, and at this time, Chu He realized that three months ago, governments had been preparing for the arrival of the end of the world, and Hua Guo was obviously the same.
"In that vision three months ago....in fact, there were seven strange meteorites falling from the sky....... and we were ordered by our superiors to start studying the meteorite...."
"Meteorite?" Chu He was completely at a loss.
"Yes, it's a meteorite, this kind of meteorite, its material properties are completely different from the material attributes of the human world, any instruments and electronic equipment within a radius of dozens of meters close to the meteorite will be assimilated and lose control and become scrap iron, even if it is a person..."Wu Ming trembled, and continued: "In order not to panic, according to the scope of the meteorite, two research institutions were temporarily established, that is, our hospital and the nursing home, responsible for the two directions of research, and at the same time, the data of the two places are completely shared. ”
"Why in two places? What are the other two directions? Chu He asked in surprise.
"Maybe it's our luck or our misfortune, there is not only one meteorite that landed in CS City." Wu Ming glanced at Chu He, who looked dazed, and continued to explain: "The research is based on the material state and structural state of meteorites, and the material state is the change of physical properties, such as the uncontrolled carbonization of electronic devices, the mutation of human beings, illogical evolution, and the undead that we see outside, this kind of attribute that does not exist in our world at all, because of the embodiment of spiritual matter caused by something, etc. ”
"What about the structure?" Chu He asked again.
"This is more general, that is, the formation of the rules of the world, because this meteorite is not the existence of our cosmic world, as if it appeared out of thin air, it doesn't seem to be like much, but just like the butterfly effect, a gentle dance of wings, may be a catastrophe, the study of the structure, is the synthesis of the two, not only to study all the consequences that meteorites may cause, but also to consider the rules of our world."
Chu He scratched his head, Wu Ming said it very simply, but for Chu He, there are still misunderstandings, however, Chu He suddenly thought of the guiding world hidden in his heart, the inner world bracelet, it seems, this is how it came about.
The repulsion of the world, the invasion of foreign substances, the change of rules......
Speaking of this, Wu Ming paused, he glanced at Xiaoguang, and said with a complicated gaze: "Actually, Xiaoguang is not an ordinary patient, he is one of the hundred volunteers of our project. ”
"Volunteers?" Chu He was puzzled.
"Yes, it's a volunteer, although our project has only been launched for three months, but the progress is very fast, and the impact of meteorites seems to be in every aspect, no matter what kind of animal it is, can completely distort the nature of living beings in an extreme period of time." Speaking of this, Wu Ming trembled again and said: "In this way, we put forward the future illusion based on the experimental data and the structural state, and our time is very short, so we quickly proposed a complete experimental plan that can be repeatedly scrutinized to 'break the ice'." ”
"....In the original idea of 'Breaking the Ice', only nine volunteers were needed, but later, the experiment began to take a drastic turn, and the results were... It became more and more frightening, and as a last resort, we increased the maximum number of test subjects..."
Chu He didn't pay much attention to these, he rubbed his brows and asked, "What about the final result?" Why not destroy meteorites? ”
"No results." Wu Ming sighed and said: "Meteorites can't be destroyed at all, even if we have a way to destroy them, it's just self-deception, this meteorite is nothing more than the transformation of meteorites into other substances, all we can do is to lock the meteorite within a certain range and control its impact." ”
Chu He understood that in the end they still didn't control it, but he didn't understand one thing: "Xiaoguang is only 14 years old, why did he become a volunteer?" ”
Wu Ming was stunned when he heard this, he bowed deeply to Xiaoguang, and said slowly: "Since Captain Chu knows Xiaoguang's father, I'm afraid he hasn't been in touch for a long time. ”
Chu He listened and nodded, he had indeed not contacted that old friend for two years.
"Miserable child." Wu Ming sighed, half loud, before he said: "Xiaoguang's father died in a border mission. ”
"Tao is dead?" Chu He was shocked.
"It was a top-secret mission, and even now, it must not be passed on." Wu Ming patted Xiaoguang on the shoulder and said, "I also knew about this because of the volunteers, and if it weren't for Xiaoguang being a witness to the meteorite landing, it must have ......."
Chu He looked at Xiaoguang, Xiaoguang's eyes were already a little dull, and bloodshot, the whole person was pale, obviously it was the consequence of what kind of 'icebreaker', seeing this, he felt a pain in his heart, Ah Tao's hearty laughter was still the same, but he didn't want to be two years old, he was already a human and a ghost.
"After the failure of 'ice breaking', we had to start other research..."
Wu Ming was about to continue the previous words, as if he was about to tell all the secrets hidden in his heart in one breath, but Chu He's eyes froze, and he stretched out his hand and made a movement: "Wait, it seems that something is coming." ”
