The old man moved slowly and carefully, as if it were an incomparably precious treasure that could be damaged at any moment. Tianxiang watched every tiny movement of the other party like this. Until he has released all the urine in his body, he recloses the wooden box where the "body" is placed.

"How did you end up like this?" Tianxiang really couldn't press the question in his heart, and spoke again.

"His body was cut down alive by someone, and then he was reborn with quite superb medical skills." Rosen said hatefully, "Can you imagine it? How could there be such a cruel person in the world who used such vicious means to deal with his enemies。。。。。。 "Enemy?" Tianxiang was stunned: "You mean, he was made into his current appearance by his opponent?" ”

"Opponents?" The old man smiled miserably: "To be exact, she should be my best friend." She was the one who made me like this. You probably wouldn't have dreamed that this woman is also a "pathfinder" like you and me. Even, it's my wife, Rosen's mother. Tianxiang took a deep breath, tried to calm his emotions, and asked in as calm a tone as possible, "Why did she do this?" ”

"For food." The old man's answer was too simple to believe.

"Food?" Tianxiang involuntarily repeated the word. He didn't understand the connection between food and the old man in front of him. "That's right, it's food." Speaking of this, a few dim tears slowly welled up from the corners of the old man's eyes: "At that time. We were attacked by another hunting tribe and were completely separated from the rest of the people. She was wounded, and I carried her on my back and walked a long way。。。。。。 She has been pregnant for several months. However, that time coincided with the winter months, where food was at its worst. In the snow and ice, there was nothing to eat. As for bugs. That's not to mention。。。。。。 ”

Tianxiang didn't speak, just quietly and carefully listened to the old man's miserable and terrifying memories. "I remember, it was early one morning. When I woke up from my sleep as usual. Suddenly, to my horror, I found that I could no longer get up from the ground as easily as I normally would. Because, my feet, my two strong legs, are not where they were at all. Can you imagine it? What would it look like when you saw your feet from a different angle? What's more. The first time I saw them, they were ****** roasted on the fire******** that's *** the legs and feet that were cut off from me!"

Rosen's hands have been tightly clenched into fists, and the muscles on his face are trembling slightly. I never thought about my body. One day it will be used as food by others. What's even more unexpected is that such a thing will be witnessed by me. To know. I watched my legs being eaten alive. However, I didn't have the slightest ability to resist. ”

There is no sadness in the old man's words, and in his place, there is a mixture of helplessness and loss.

"Eat yours. Is that your wife? Tianxiang calmed down and asked calmly. Who else but her? The old man, who was only half of his body left, smiled miserably: "In front of me, she cut off the flesh from my feet piece by piece and put it on the fire to barbecue." She was so hungry that the piece of meat, as I recall, wasn't fully cooked. She hurriedly stuffed it into her mouth with blood and hair, and chewed it. Choked on the roll of his eyes。。。。。。 Then again, if she hadn't done that, I'm afraid my son wouldn't have been born at all. ”

"Don't you hate her?" Tianxiang sighed secretly in his heart and asked softly. "Hate? How to hate? The old man shook his head: "To tell the truth, except for more than half of the two legs that were cut off by her, the rest all went into my stomach, and she was not the only one who was hungry." Without eating, I wouldn't have been able to live until now. ”

“。。。。。。 You...... Ate your own meat yourself? Tianxiang felt a chill for no reason. The old man nodded silently: "If you want to live, this is the only choice." What's more, the feet have been blown off. In this sense, they are simply objects outside of my body. Since they can be eaten, they can be treated as food. So why can't I eat it? After all, in this world, to be alive is to represent hope. Only the dead are the vanquished who have no ability to resist. ”

Although what the old man said did sound chilling. But the meaning couldn't be simpler. Live, live by all means. That's the only rule of the dark world. As long as you live, you have a chance and a hope to do anything. "And then!" The story is clearly not over yet, and the listener is very eager to know what is going on.

"She was a pathfinder who had inherited the knowledge of ancient medicine, and using those incredible techniques, she stopped my bleeding and stitched up my wounds. It made me survive for a long time with my legs in the city. Until the patriarch came to support the people. "But why is there only internal organs left in your body?" The glint in Tianxiang's eyes flashed: "Moreover, it seems to be very healthy?" ”

"How so。。。。。。 It's also her masterpiece. The old man closed his eyes tightly, as if recalling the unbearable past: "Since returning to the camp of the tribe, she has been quite guilty of what she had done when she was hungry. Therefore, she has always wanted to use her medical skills to restore my body to its previous state。。。。。。 "Revert to the previous state?" Tianxiang couldn't help but be stunned: "Your legs have been cut off, how can you recover again?" They cannot regenerate unless ... Graft? ”

"Yes, you guessed it right!" The old man suddenly opened his eyes and nodded blankly: "That's exactly what she had in mind." She wanted to use the other pair of legs. Replace the part I was cut off. Pick them up back on mine again. "How so? Tianxiang really didn't expect that the tragedy that happened to Liu Shunyun would be repeated on this old man. Moreover, it was carried out by two "pathfinders" with completely different locations. Could it be that there is some kind of musical connection between these two seemingly identical events? "She chose someone who was as tall as I thought. After killing him completely by accident during a hunt, he cut off his legs from a fresh corpse. Send them back to camp as fast as you can, and use that mysterious and superb ancient medicine to get them back to mine. She stayed with me that night. She kept saying she loved me and kept apologizing to me. And, for little Lawson's sake, forgive her ......."

Speaking of this, the old man slowly turned his head and glanced at his son beside him. I saw that Lawson's face was already full of tears. Oh, yes! No matter who it is, can you not cry when you hear that your parents are so bloody and miserable?

"The surgery was quite successful. The thighs that were attached felt exactly like my own. Merely. It looks quite unfamiliar. After all, this is something that belongs to someone else. Suddenly appeared on himself. And it has become a part of his body. I will never forget that awkward feeling. "So, your body。。。。。。 Why is it still 。。。。。。 Tianxiang opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say the next half of the sentence.

"In ancient medicine. There are two special words. I'm afraid you've heard of it. The old man said with a lonely expression.

"What is it?" Tianxiang asked urgently.

"Disinfection, sterilization." "I see!" Hearing this, Tianxiang couldn't help but suddenly realize: "You mean, your body is precisely because of 。。。。。。 ”

"Because the disinfection is not complete during the operation, it causes bacterial infection of the wound. Eventually, the legs were completely necrotic when they were connected to the ground. During that time, there is always a lot of pus and yellow water oozing out of the sutures of the muscles. Swollen and foaming legs. It's soft to the touch. With a little force, you can concave a foul-smelling liquid. In fact. They simply have lost their proper function and are completely rotten. "The germ just spread all the way to 。。。。。。 whole body." Tianxiang muttered to himself. Suddenly, he shook his head in confusion: "No! Even so, you should feel it yourself. After all, that's the part of your body that is attached to your body, right? "At that time, I didn't know anything." The old man closed his eyes in pain: "I also noticed that there is something wrong with my legs. But I don't know exactly why. It wasn't until her legs were so rotten that they couldn't smell at all that she realized the seriousness of the matter. But it was too late...... The ulceration and infection had spread from the wound to the upper part of my body, and even the skin of my abdomen had developed a large number of necrotic muscles. ”

Tianxiang gasped, the situation that the old man said, he had read it in an ancient medical book, according to the above records, such a situation is not curable at all. "She became pretty crazy trying to save me。。。。。。 I don't know what happened. All I know is that she made her take a drug that would make her sleepy. When I woke up from the dream again, my body was changed again. Except for the hands and the head, the rest was stuffed into this large glass jar. In her words: This is already the best result for me. After all, despite the push of the body, I am still alive. ”

Tianxiang stared at the old man's eyes, knowing that he was sure that what the other party said was true, so he retracted his sense of letting go. Although these words sound unbelievable. However, what the other party said was indeed the truth. "I don't blame her! I know she's done her best." Speaking of this, two tears oozed from the corners of the old man's eyes again: "But when she cried and told me that I would live like this forever for the rest of my life. That fear and shock in my heart made it impossible for me to forgive all that she had done to me. It was from that time that I began to become intimidated by respect for this woman. The most **** suppressed the sense of awe that could not be broken through in my heart**** At the end of dinner, I squeezed a few drops of the stalk juice of the blacktail grass in her broth...... "Blacktail, this is a highly poisonous plant that every hunter is extremely familiar with. It often only takes two or three drops to kill a person.

The old man's approach Tianxiang can fully understand. In that case, even if it's yourself. I'm afraid it's only going to go even further than he does。。。。。。 It's just that he doesn't understand: why does Old Man Robin use the word "awe" for his wife? "You're the first person to ask me this question besides my son." The old man sighed and said slowly, "From the first time you saw me, can you feel the "pathfinder" gene in me? ”

Tianxiang nodded subconsciously, he didn't understand what the other party wanted to say.

"When the ancients first selected and set up the Pathfinder gene, they used an extremely advanced genetic technology. Alteration of the original human genes. The best settings are made in terms of physique, brain, temperament, and even their leadership ability. In order to be able to freely choose the most suitable leader among the multiple pathfinders. I believe you should also understand the meaning of this. ”

"You mean...... The subconscious mind in the genes that automatically selects the ruler? At this point, Tianxiang suddenly realized: "Could it be that your wife still has you...... It turned out to be ......""Not bad! He's my leader. The old man nodded lightly: "Although I am her husband." But in terms of ability, she is actually far better than me. Therefore, I have no choice but to choose her as my chief. It's a choice made by genes. There's nothing I can do. "I understand!" Tianxiang rubbed his hands thoughtfully. The situation that the old man said was the same as when Taiguang, Xiaotian and others met him. I don't need to say much about it myself, and I can freely judge the genes of each person's ability, in the first time. There was a covert comparison of the various "pathfinders". In the end, Tianxiang who has been recognized by them is selected to serve as the leader of the entire race.

At that time, Tianxiang also imagined: If the gene did not choose himself at that time, but regarded another person as the leader, then today's self and the dragon clan. What will it be? You know, that irresistible subconscious that comes from the brain will simply curb all your thinking. Forcing you to accept everything they perceive. Even if these things seem so incredible to you, they are so unacceptable to you.

At the beginning of the genes, the ancients probably only thought about how to bring together all the scattered "pathfinders" and complete the various tasks they were entrusted with in the most united way. But I never thought about what kind of meaning this would mean to the personal feelings in it.

The so-called disadvantage and taking into account the overall situation is probably the most direct embodiment of this! However, there is one thing that Tianxiang is puzzled about. Now that the genes have made the first choice between old Robin and her wife. Naturally, it is not difficult to explain that he still retains his loyalty to that woman after so many tragic encounters. So, what should be the explanation for the fact that he poisoned the broth?

Could it be that old Robin is simply a "pathfinder"? His genes don't make any choice between two people at all? Is it just the poor old man's unilateral personal delusion that everything has been compensated? Or, what he said about the cut, is all false? Is this something he deliberately withheld from some extremely important part of the story?

"You'll think I'm lying, after all, everything I'm saying doesn't match what you know." The old man smiled faintly and gently waved his hands hanging from the top of the wooden box: "In fact, when I had such a thought, even I was startled. I couldn't even imagine how I could possibly think like that. You know, betrayal, such an act is simply impossible in the dictionary of "pathfinders"! "But you did it anyway." Tianxiang took a deep breath, clasped his hands, frowned, and paced back and forth in the cramped cabin for a few steps. He could feel that old Robin wasn't lying. But the question is, how to explain the things he said? You know, this is a violation of the rules you know! "Can you tell me what kind of state you were in at that time?" Suddenly, Tianxiang seemed to remember something, stepped in front of the wooden box where the old man was, and asked nervously in a rather hurried tone: "Or, at that time, did you ever feel angry, dissatisfied, and other strong hatred for her?" Tell me, it's important. Very important. ”。
