Volume 2 Eyes of the Deep Chapter 7 The Hand Meat Chrysalis
When the second uncle heard my voice, he turned his head and looked at me strangely.
At this point, my whole body was stiff, and I was too scared to speak, and I was afraid that I would alarm the thing on my shoulder. I can only make a "cough-cough" sound from my throat, and I desperately use my mouth to push in the direction of my shoulder.
The second uncle frowned, "You kid smoked sheep's horn?" ”
I glared at him desperately with my eyes, and then looked over my shoulder.
The second uncle found that something was wrong, and slowly turned the flashlight to my shoulder, and at a glance, his face was to the side, and he said softly: "Don't move, don't move!" ”
I rolled my eyes and said, if you want me to move, I can't move!
The second uncle stared at my shoulder with his eyes, his hand quickly reached into his waist bag, took out a green stick, put it directly in his mouth, and ate it.
I was immediately stunned, and scolded in my heart, why did this old man still eat it! What's wrong? My situation whets your appetite, doesn't it?
As a result, I saw that after the second uncle put the green thing in his mouth and chewed it for a while, his eyes widened, his cheeks were raised, and he squirted at me with a "poof".
The slimy, green stuff immediately sprayed me in the face, I'm disgusting! But what I didn't expect was that the thing on my shoulder let out a weird scream and fell off my shoulder in one fell swoop.
The second uncle stood up at a very fast speed, stepped on the thing, and sprayed all the remaining things in his mouth on the thing. The thing writhed in pain and let out a weird scream.
I saw what it was, and I immediately got goosebumps. I saw that this thing was almost a foot long, and the flesh around this thing was slimy, and there were tentacles as thick as five fingers on one end, which looked like a human hand.
I took a closer look with a flashlight and found that one of the five tentacles should be the head of this thing, because at this time, on the antennae that looked like a head, a small round mouth had been opened, and it was biting the soles of the second uncle's big leather boots, but the soles of the second uncle's shoes were very thick, and that thing couldn't bite at all.
The second uncle took out a green thing and put it in his mouth again, chewed it and sprayed it on the body of this thing again, only to see that this thing screamed for a while, and then stopped struggling, the whole body dried up, slowly becoming dry and brittle, the second uncle stomped on it, and this thing immediately turned into a puddle of powder.
The second uncle breathed a sigh of relief, turned back to me and said, "Okay, it's okay!" ”
I came to my senses and touched the thing that was sprayed by the second uncle on my face, and I smelled an extremely familiar smell, "Second uncle, what you sprayed is ......"
The second uncle replied without raising his head: "Leek! ”
I'll go! Right! That's right, this flavor is leek! I was really speechless, "Second uncle, I really convinced you, you actually carried leeks with you!?" ”
The second uncle glanced at me, "Little child, what do you know?" Leeks are also known as Yiyang grass, and they are quite yang! Specifically deal with this evil thing. ”
The second uncle told me that it was recorded in the "Wu Zhou West Advance" that according to legend, there was a general named Wu Zhong in the Western Zhou Dynasty, who led the army to a desolate place one day. Everyone looked for a village woman and asked: The general doesn't know, this place is plagued by evil spirits, people and animals are restless, and not a single inch of grass grows, so it is desolate and sad. Wu was furious: No one denied the evil deceiving me in Da Zhou! Immediately set up a camp, with heavy law to suppress the evil spirits, and with the essence of blood to purify the land, the next day, everywhere Yiyang grass, evil far away.
I touched the chopped leeks on my face and muttered, "Even if this method has a origin and origin, can't you spray it on time?" me in the face. ”
The second uncle smiled when he saw my appearance and pointed to the ground, "Big nephew, do you know what this thing on your body is called?" ”
I looked at the pile of powder on the ground, "How do I know, it can't be rubber gloves, right?" ”
The second uncle glanced at me, "Let me tell you, this thing is called a human hand meat chrysalis." There are many records before the Qin Dynasty, but after the Qin Dynasty, it slowly became extinct. Hand pupa lived relatively deep underground, just like today's earthworms. ”
I nodded, "Look at the shape of this thing, it does look like a large earthworm." ”
The second uncle continued: "Not only does it look like an earthworm, according to some ancient records, this thing will be cut off and will not die. Isn't it more like an earthworm? So some people think that this thing belongs to the same family as earthworms. However, the juice in the body of this thing, although it is not poisonous, is relatively corrosive. If I hadn't made a quick move just now, and your face was sprayed a little by it, it would have broken your face, and you wouldn't be able to marry your daughter-in-law in the future! ”
I nervously touched my face, although my face was full of leek smell now, but I didn't break the phase, and immediately smiled at the second uncle and said, "Thank you second uncle, come out and save me!" ”
The second uncle snorted and ignored me. I asked the second uncle, "Second uncle, where did you say this person came from?" Speaking of which, I suddenly looked nervously at the ground under my feet, "Surely I crawled out of the ground?" Will there be any more here? ”
"There should be only this one." The second uncle knocked on the ground, "This is reinforced concrete, not to mention that the human hand chrysalis is meat, it is iron, and it may not be able to drill." ”
I continued to ask the second uncle, "Then where do you say it came from?" Didn't you say that it became extinct during the Qin Dynasty? ”
The second uncle thought for a while, and suddenly pointed to the bone with his hand, "Then it is only possible because of this bone, I estimate that this bone was buried in the ground not long ago, and the human hand meat chrysalis got into it, until now." ”
My eyes widened when I heard this, "If according to what you said, this person's hand meat chrysalis is from before and after the Qin Dynasty." So that means this thing has lived for more than 2,000 years? ”
The second uncle shook his head and corrected: "It's not that I have lived for more than two thousand years, but that I have multiplied for more than two thousand years. Did you know that earthworms are hermaphrodites? ”
"Second uncle, do you mean that it has children with itself?" As soon as I finished speaking, I immediately reacted, "No, second uncle!" You can't fool me about this, because my biology teacher was very beautiful when I was in school, so I was good at biology back then! Although earthworms are hermaphrodites, they need allogeneic fertilization, and there is only one flesh pupae here, so it can't do it! ”
The second uncle looked at me and smiled, "Look, I'll just say, the solidity of knowledge lies in interest, whether it is interest in the subject or interest in the subject teacher." But I don't think your biology teacher is beautiful enough, let me ask you, earthworms are hermaphrodites, but why they still need allofertilization? ”
I'll go! Am I back in high school class? I almost forgot that I was here to investigate Huangshan, as if I had come to take the final exam. I shook my head decisively.
"I'm telling you, the reason an earthworm that is hermaphroditic needs allogeneic fertilization is because of the different stages of sexual cell maturity. Got it? The second uncle said as he walked over to the two bones, "I guess the reason why this human hand pupa can live so long is because it is different from earthworms, and its male and female cells take almost the same time to mature. It's easy to verify, we'll crack this bone to see if it contains the remains of a dead human hand chrysalis. Just get it. ”
After speaking, the second uncle reached out and took down the crowbar from the entrance of the hole, and knocked the thicker bone, "snap", the bone was broken into several pieces at once, we carefully broke it open, the inside of the bone seemed to have been hollowed out, and there were some shriveled human hand pupa remains, which looked like they had been dead for quite a long time, and the second uncle's inference was indeed correct.
I can't help but be a little surprised, if the fecundity of this human hand meat chrysalis is so perverted, how can it become extinct? Luckily, we killed this one just now, and if we let it run out and let it breed as it pleases, I'm afraid it will soon be full of this kind of thing outside! It's disgusting to think about!
The second uncle sighed and said: "No matter how fertile Niu X is, it can't escape the screening of nature, for this kind of human hand pupae, maybe as long as the soil pH changes, it can easily kill it, even if this thing runs out, the current soil environment, coupled with all kinds of pollution, will let it die in minutes." ”
"Second uncle, I simply throw myself to the ground for the five bodies you admire! You should be the one who should be the professor! After saying that, I stretched and yawned, "But, second uncle, it's time for us to get out of class, I forgot what I'm here for." ”
The second uncle glared at me, "What do you say, I gave you a chemistry class and a biology class for no reason, and I was also uncomfortable!" Saying that, the second uncle searched again, "It seems that there is nothing to gain today, let's withdraw!" ”
The two of us climbed up the ladder, and as we left, I took a fragment of bone with me, and I was going to get someone to test the ingredients and maybe find something. After all, the current level of science and technology is not comparable to that of forty years ago.
My second uncle and I restored the things we had used to their original state, then returned to the first floor and jumped out of the window of the school building.
After leaving the gate, the second uncle said to me, "Where do you live now?" The express hotel I live in now is quite clean, two beds, if not, you can go to my place. ”
I was a little embarrassed to say the name of the five-star luxury hotel where I am living now, and the second uncle's mouth was open enough to fly in a fly.
After a long time, the second uncle smiled bitterly, "You kid will enjoy it, or I'll go live with you!" You go by yourself, I'll go back and clean up and I'll look for you tomorrow." ”
I nodded, and then left separately from my second uncle.
Back at the hotel, it was already past two o'clock in the morning. I hurriedly rushed into the bathroom and took a good shower, but after washing, I still felt that there was a faint smell of leeks on my body. I found a bottle of air freshener and sprayed a lot of it into the house, although the news kept saying that the air freshener was not good, but at this time I couldn't care about it, I was already sleepy, and I got into the quilt.
