Chapter 23 Drawing the Line

The lazy man was noncommittal, and he didn't stop it. However, when I broke into the tent, I remembered that there were three women sleeping in the tent, especially Wen Min's vigilance, as soon as I entered, she woke up, looked at me with wide eyes, and said, "Chen Hang, what are you doing!" ”

I was slightly embarrassed and said, "You're all wrapped in sleeping bags, what can I do, something's wrong." With that, I hurriedly called Lili, a female doctor who was still sleeping very well, and after shaking the person awake, I briefly explained the situation.

When Lili heard this, she woke up most of the time from drowsiness, and she didn't care about wearing a coat, so she got out of her sleeping bag and ran out to check the situation of Hari Chagai. We moved the man into the tent, took off his clothes, and Lili began to examine him, and her nimble fingers pressed around his neck, and then you could see that some of the meridians that were usually invisible to the guards parasitized by the thing were slightly bulging at this moment.

After a while, Lili shook her head in frustration and said, "No, it's grown." ”

Hari Chagai and I have always had a good relationship, and this time it was Zhen Rui who asked me to help, if something happened, how could I live with what little conscience I had left, so I asked, "Is there any other way?" ”

Lili shook her head, showing an apologetic look, and said: "Neurosurgery is currently a difficult operation, and it has to be done abroad, according to his situation, it grows on the back of his neck, even if he goes abroad, the chance of success is very small, unless it is ......"

"Unless what?" Wen Min asked.

Lili said: "Unless this thing weighs on itself, although there will be some damage to the nerves, it will minimize the damage, and it can be raised back afterwards." In the dark, I glanced at the lazy thing.

Let it come down on its own?

This thing is a parasite, how can it come off its host?

The lazy guy didn't doze off at this time, and when he heard the words, he said: "I have to figure out the relationship between it and 01 before I can deal with it." ”

There were not too many people in the tent, and the one-eyed dragon and the photographer were outside, but they couldn't see the situation inside, smoking outside, and from time to time they burrowed their heads into it to see what was going on in Hari Chagai. Team Liu heard what the lazy man said, so he took out the notebook. Since she was the leader of the mission, the notebook was later given to her for safekeeping.

She flipped to the fragment of the description of 01, frowned, and said, "I think that this parasitic thing should not be the ontology of 01, it has the ability to split and combine, which shows that the ontology also has it." Perhaps, this thing was separated from the body after being injured, so it will always parasitize on the body of the madman before. I think that if we can find the ontology of 01, then it will definitely merge towards the ontology and will no longer inhabit people. ”

Team Liu, a woman who grew up abroad, is independent and insightful, and may have experienced a lot, so the situation in front of her did not make her too flustered, and in a short period of time, she came to this conclusion. However, it has to be said that the possibility of this theory is very high.

But does the ontology of 01 still exist zĂ i?

The base was apparently destroyed by bombing, has the body of 01 disappeared in that disaster? If it hadn't disappeared, if it was still alive, wouldn't it have been sent to death if we went to find that monster?

For a moment, there was a kind of absolute silence in the tent.

In the midst of this silence, Hari Chagai woke up with a groan. His expression was a little confused at first, and then he probably remembered what happened before he fainted, and his expression suddenly changed, and he reached out and touched the back of his neck. I quickly stopped Harichagai's hand and said, "You have to touch it, but don't pull it out, it's already combined with your nerves." ”

Hari Chagai was smiling and grinning on weekdays, and now he looked at me speechlessly, and said for a long time: "I'm cāo, since I met you Chen Hang, why haven't I encountered a good thing." ”

I said, "You're only finding out now, it's too late." ”

Hari Chagai sat up cross-legged, didn't touch it back, but moved his neck, probably didn't feel anything abnormal, then looked at the female doctor Lili on the side, and her expression returned to that kind of hippie smile, and said, "Beauty, you were helping me with the examination just now, how is the situation?" ”

Team Liu looked at Hari Chagai very unexpectedly, probably because he didn't expect someone to laugh in this situation. I wasn't surprised, Hari Chagai was actually a very mysterious person, in the tomb of the Giant Ear King, he gave me and Tofu two bone beads, and afterwards, the bone beads turned into powder in our hands, and it was obvious that the bone beads helped us ward off a disaster. During that operation, Hari Chagai followed Zhen Rui and the others and was never discovered, which shows that his skills are excellent.

I once heard him talk to Tofu about his view of life and death, perhaps religious people can see it more than ordinary people, shamans believe that human life is a combination of the aura of all things, and death is just a kind of return, which is somewhat similar to Taoist thought. Shamans worship animism, and this concept of scattering spirits into heaven and earth and gathering spirits into human bodies is like the Taoist concept that all things are one with me.

Tofu once said that this concept is too mysterious, Hari Chagai smiled and said: "Then come to a non-mysterious, you can see life and death as the law of conservation of matter." Man is also a substance, after death, the corpse decomposes into various substances, is eaten by ants into the stomach, it becomes an ant, turned into nutrients and absorbed by the tree, it becomes a tree, the tree releases oxygen, and becomes oxygen. Life is an infinite cycle of process. Human beings depend on all things to survive and oxygen to survive in order to give birth to new life. You see, this is the conservation of matter, and when you think about it, life and death, what else is there to be afraid of. ”

I never knew that the law of conservation of matter could be used in this way, and it seems more incisive to interpret it in terms of religious theory.

After listening to Lili's words, Hari Chagai touched his front neck and said, "You have to find 01?" Where can I find that thing? After a pause, he looked at the staff he had set aside, and said, "This thing can move on its own, and if 01 had been nearby, it would have found its own body long ago." Counting on it to come out on its own, it's unlikely. ”

Lili frowned and said, "What should I do then?" ”

Hari Chagai grinned, and said with a smile: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, beauty, you are so worried, is it ......" said while approaching the girl, and I don't know what to say, which made Lili blush.

I shook my head, not knowing whether to admire his composure or to say that he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

It's just that the thing on the back of his neck is not big now, but sooner or later, he will go down the path of a madman, what if Harichagai becomes like that? This thing absorbs the host's nutrients and grows, and eventually completely takes over the host's nerves, turning it into a bloodthirsty madman according to 01's nature. If that happens, Harichagai will have to be burned to death.

No.

No way.

I don't kill Beren, but Beren dies because of me, and I can't watch this happen.

I said, "It's not too bad now, wait a minute." Immediately afterwards, I said to Team Liu: "The ancient city is there, and it won't run, I'm going to look for the traces of 01 first, and then make plans then." ”

Team Liu frowned and said, "What if you find 01?" Isn't that a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? ”

01 was bombed back then, and I estimate that its body must have been hit hard, and eighty percent of it was hiding somewhere to recuperate. And this thing that resembles a human hand has been parasitic on the madman, and the madman has not completely lost his mind, and has been wandering around the base, perhaps it is the madman who knows something, so he deliberately avoids the main body.

I told everyone about my speculation and said, "Therefore, if 01 still exists, its strength will definitely not be as strong as it was back then, and we may not have no chance of winning." ”

Team Liu frowned and thought for a while, and finally said: "Mr. Chen, the situation you said is not impossible, I don't object to it, but ......" She looked at the female doctor and the photographer, and said, "But I can't let them take the risk with them." You were introduced by Min Min halfway, in this case, our cooperation ends here, let's do our own thing, and act separately. ”

To be honest, I admire this woman a little, this kind of disaster is coming, and there is no pressure to do parting ways. In fact, if I had encountered such a thing, I would probably have done the same thing as her, in fact, this is indeed the most correct and rational way. However, most people are often swayed by emotions and do not know how to refuse. If we change someone, it is estimated that it will be for the sake of our teammates, and they will follow us as soon as their hearts soften.

Team Liu's approach was ruthless, but it was extremely rational.

The more dangerous the situation, the more sensible it is.

Sure enough, the female doctor was a little uneasy in conscience, and whispered to Team Liu: "Team Liu, they have been helping us along the way, wouldn't it be good to do this now?" ”

Team Liu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Emotionally speaking, it's really not good, but I can't let you go to death." ”

The matter was settled, the lazy man had no opinion, yawned, and listened to me, this time I originally gave the 'appearance fee', he was just a thug bodyguard, as for who to beat, it all depends on my own will.

Hari Chagai was very moved, patted me on the shoulder and said, "I really didn't save you in vain." ”

The next day, everyone divided their equipment and officially drew a line. Wen Min wants to go with us, but I have my own plans, to put it bluntly, that is, selfishness, I am worried that if there is an accident, she will be involved.

So let her continue to follow Team Liu, and whispered, let her continue to help me keep an eye on people, Hari Chagai wants to be saved, and Tianyan must also get it. In fact, only I knew in my heart that I just didn't want her to be in danger.

Wen Min saw that I had a resolute opinion, so I could only agree.

In this way, Team Liu, the female doctor, the photographer and Wen Min, the four of them packed up their things and entered the ancient city. I, the lazy man, Hari Chagai, and the one-eyed dragon walked back. I actually have a goal in mind, which is the black hole that I once recorded in that notebook.

That hole, apparently, was once 01's lair.

We deliberately avoided that area before, so now, after taking a heavy beating, will 01 hide back in the lair?
