Dry bones

So the next day we parted for a while and went our separate ways.

I ordered a TAXI, and at lightning speed, it took me only an hour and a half to approach the solidarity station.

It's not like a heavily guarded and heavily guarded camp like a camp that is not afraid of danger, but it's really a veritable big home. There was neither a fence of barbed wire nor a sentry standing guard. Rows of dark red buildings stand neatly on both sides of the road, and a wide road stretches into the distance.

TAXI continued to drive towards the station in depth, but the speed of the car had slowed down. There were individual people walking on the side of the road, and groups of people walking, some of them wearing red scarves or red pants, but most of them still had a red badge prominently on their chests. Of course, there were some people who didn't wear anything, and I think they must have been non-factional. However, these so-called poor people are confused among the groups of sincere solidarity, but there is no inferiority or alternative, but like neighbors who share a blue sky. That's the power of unity, I couldn't help but sigh.

AFTER TURNING A FEW MORE BLOCKS, TAXI STOPPED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. The taxi driver said commonplacely: "When you arrive, you have to ask for a pass to go inside." ”

I was a little stunned, and I hadn't caught up with the rhythm yet. I looked around, and it was so unfamiliar.

The driver glanced at me, he saw my confusion, and continued: "The sign inside is very clear, it shouldn't be difficult to find." I can only stop here, that's the rule. Although there are no guards, once they break in illegally and are discovered, they will be severely punished, which is not a joke. ”

Stipulate?! Hey, it seems that there are some unwritten rules everywhere.

"Okay then." I had to give him money and send him away. It seems that sincere solidarity is not without measure.

As the taxi driver said, the roadside signs are really clear and straightforward. I followed the guidance of the signs, walked a few more streets, and finally arrived at No. 215 Luxiyuan, Hongbo District.

It's the same as the other buildings around it - some standard big storerooms. I approached the gate and gently rang the doorbell, but after waiting for a while, no one answered. I rang the doorbell again, and it was still the same.

What's going on? Isn't Susan here?! I tried to push the door, but it opened silently. It seems that there is no such thing as an access control, which is very much in line with the consistent style of the Sincere Solidarity faction. In their logic, it is necessary to abandon artificial confinement, open the door and welcome people from all sides, so as to achieve an atmosphere of unity. I laughed at my ridiculous idea. I didn't want to think about it anymore, so I slowly paced in as I shouted Susan's name.

As soon as I entered the room, my eyes widened. The huge room was like a mad scientist taking over the world's largest Wal-Mart supermarket, and then emptying all the shelves, and filling the shelves with aquariums of various sizes and shapes made of siloxane-based chemical viscose glass, all covered with thick cloth covers, except for a small section of the bottom of the box that was still exposed. In a prominent position in the room stood a large sign that read: Please don't make a lot of noise, they are all sleeping!

These things must be all strange sea creatures, I muttered. I seem to smell the salty smell of seawater. In fact, choosing to block should be a mistake. Because the tighter it is covered, the more it arouses the curiosity of mortal peeping. I was no exception, and I wanted to lift the shield to see what was going on, but in the end I suppressed the restlessness in my heart.

I continued to walk inside, and I guessed that Susan might be somewhere inside, dealing with sea creatures. After passing through a bend in the hallway, I came to another room. This room is a little smaller than the first room in front of it, and it is a little narrow, but the things in the room are exactly the same as the previous room, and they are all large and small well-sealed aquariums.

My curiosity has been halved. I looked left and right, but I still didn't see half a figure. I continued on and soon reached the third room. It's still the same as the first and second rooms, and I'm a little hesitant, do I have to continue this search?!

The moment I casually turned my head, a mostly exposed aquarium in the far corner took my attention, and the cloth cover that covered the tank was now diagonally placed in the corner of the tank. I walked briskly and a fat, extremely ugly fish came into my sight, it was amazingly big! I reckon it must have been over 15 feet long, and it was wandering around in a tank with its tail exaggeratedly swinging, big enough for the giant fish to swim around. I looked at the detailed explanation on the side of the tank, "Coelacanth, the first of the living fossil species, is thought to have been extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period, but after 1938, several African countries reported the discovery of coelacanth. Coelacanths dating back 410 million years in the fossil record typically live mainly at the bottom of the ocean, but sometimes on the surface of the ocean. ”

My cursory reading was nearing the end, but my peripheral vision was drawn to the peeking corner of another tank behind it, a few luminous blue tentacles wiggling and wiggling. I poked my head out and avoided the tank containing the coelacanths to get a panoramic view of the tank. A light blue transparent sea creature - a box-shaped jellyfish coiled in the tank, its shape is really like a box, with four distinct sides, the appearance is very good-looking, the transparent blue body releases a light blue light, there is a kind of beauty like a fairy.

I ran over in three steps and two steps. In the past, I had only seen box jellyfish in a few books about marine life, but I didn't expect to see it on the spot today. Actually, I know that the box jellyfish is a very dangerous creature. In my books of my time, it was detailed that it won the top title of the top 10 most dangerous marine animals for its unique lethality. In fact, even in the current situation of a thousand years from now, I don't think it will be easily defeated.

Also known as the Australian box jellyfish, the box jellyfish is known as the sea wasp, and its salad bowl-sized jellyfish has up to 60 tentacles, each of which is up to 4.6 meters long. Each tentacle contains 5,000 stinging cells and enough toxin to kill 60 people, and is said to actively attack humans, making it considered the most vicious of tropical beaches.

I savored the unique appearance of the box jellyfish. It has 24 eyes on the bell, of which 6 eyes are in a group, and only two of the group are highly complex eyes, and the other 4 are primitive eyes that can only sense light. And also...... There was a pair of dead fish-like eyes staring at me for a moment, right behind the box jellyfish. All of a sudden, my heart felt like I had fallen into ice water, and my mind felt like a bucket of paste. I couldn't deviate from that "ghost" at all. Who stays where???

I looked at each other for no more than a dozen seconds with the eyes hidden behind the jellyfish, but I felt like a century had passed. The box-shaped jellyfish swam slowly toward the other side of the tank, agitating its tentacles. At this time, all obstacles disappeared, and the owner of the eyes slowly revealed his original form. Her short ear-length hair danced up and down with the waves, her big mouth was wide open in horror, and her limbs were spread like a turtle lying down, and she was now suspended feebly in the glass case, especially those big eyes, staring at me without squinting, and anyone could see in them the horror of a frightened bird. At this moment, I suddenly realized, this is not an out-and-out female corpse, immediately I felt like I was nailed to the ground and could not move, a cool air instantly rushed from the soles of my feet to my head, all the hairs stood up, my teeth were fighting with each other, and my whole body was trembling, as if the devil had grabbed one of my legs.

Without the pulling and suppression of the box jellyfish, the female corpse was completely liberated. She slowly rose up with the flow of the water, and was suppressed by the top of the glass case. My eyes were full of frozen images, my mind was blank, and even my soul seemed to be out of my body. It was a long time before I felt that my soul was finally back in my withered shell, and my body finally had a hint of warmth, but my brain had already taken the lead and began to work rapidly. It is estimated that the box jellyfish has eaten enough, so it temporarily let go of this female corpse, or it prefers living creatures, and will never eat this dead body until it is absolutely necessary. I had to get the body out of the way, but another thought quickly broke in, the man is dead, but where is the living?! It was a life-or-death moment, and the first task was to find Susan, and the only thing to do was to let the female corpse stay in the aquarium for a while.
