Chapter 281: Eternal Doubt
Song Ziyu looked intently at the mouse that was thrown into the petri dish.
The horrific life raid did not happen, and the mouse and the sunflower lived together in the same room.
"We've been observing for a long time, but we still haven't been able to accurately determine the exact feeding pattern of the sunflower." Marcus paid attention to the scene in front of him and said.
Song Ziyu reminded him with an idea: "The law of conservation of energy. ”
"For example?" Marcus was thoughtful.
Song Ziyu picked up the scalpel in front of the table and walked to the petri dish, and then directly raised the knife and cut off one of the vines of the sunflower.
The pained sunflower wailed, and pounced on Song Ziyu's palm like a wild dog!
But Song Ziyu is also very fierce!
The monster with a diameter of ten meters with mouthparts can't be defeated by itself, can't it still beat your miniature version of the little cabbage?
Song Ziyu didn't say a word, but a punch the size of a sandbag hit the plant stalk of the sunflower, making the sunflower pop.
See this scene!
Marcus was completely shocked and his jaw dropped!
This sunflower is an extremely precious scientific research material, and since he transplanted it from the ruins, he has always regarded it as a treasure, and he dares to treat it so vulgarly.
Moreover, this plant is extremely ferocious in nature, and it also carries a very terrifying virus......
But even though there were so many dangers, the young man in front of him actually repelled Sunflower with his bare hands.
It's still a little incredible!
"You ......" Marcus wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
At this time, Song Ziyu said: "Don't take this kind of thing too precious, this is a kind of man-eating beast, according to my character, I want to kill him properly!" ”
As he spoke, Sunflower, who had been punched, was a little sluggish, and turned her head to focus on the weaker guinea pig.
The thorny vines swept by, hugging the mouse.
The caught mice were poisoned before they even had time to struggle.
The thorn vine grabbed the mouse and threw it into its mouthparts, and then heard the clattering sound of chewing.
As for the small section of thorny vines that had been cut off, they struggled frantically on the ground.
Song Ziyu hated it so much that he directly stomped on the vines on the ground, and then couldn't help asking, "What's the point of you offering this thing?" This thing is going to eat people! ”
Marcus asked, "Don't you understand the preciousness of this plant?" ”
Song Ziyu shook his head.
Marcus thought for a moment and took out two photographs from the safe, one in ancient black and white and one in color pixels.
Both of these photos are recent photographs of the same indigenous person.
"This black-and-white photograph is the only one left in my great-great-grandfather's diary...... The other photograph was taken by me 50 years ago. Marcus said.
"Any questions?" Song Ziyu asked.
"Can't you take a closer look?" Marcus said.
Song Ziyu said: "I don't see any difference. ”
"That's the problem!" Marcus said, "More than 100 years have passed! Why is he still the same as before? ”
Song Ziyu was stunned.
Only then did I suddenly realize that it seemed to be like this!
This question...... It's kind of sci-fi.
The appearance of the natives looks ordinary, there is really nothing outstanding, and it is easy to ignore, but listening to Marcus's reminder, the more Song Ziyu thinks about it, the more afraid he feels.
At this time, Marcus continued: "It's a pity that we didn't have much consciousness back then, and we were full of fear of unknown superstitions, ignoring the importance of these living dead! Especially the priest...... After killing them, we were terrified of their resurrection, so we set them on fire. Now that I think about it, this behavior is really stupid! If their flesh still exists, it must be the best research material. ”
Song Ziyu didn't talk, because he was dealing with this kind of material (zombies) every day, and he really didn't see any value in their research.
"So, when that's all the way out, what are you Mengshan Company researching?"
Song Ziyu asked.
Marcus replied, "Our family-run group has always been committed to raising the limits of human lifespan, and our ultimate goal is to achieve human immortality. ”
Finally, Marcus pointed to the sunflower and said, "The secret of human immortality may be hidden in this plant." ”
Bullshit!
It's really a crooked way.
Song Ziyu said: "Then I am even more confused...... You study human immortality, why is the company's flagship product a pesticide and related industry? ”
Marcus sighed: "It's a shame to say that studying immortality is a difficult subject that requires a lot of funds and talents to support, and after so many years, we are not going well on the road to immortality. In contrast, the study of this sunflower has given us a lot of experience and results in pesticide and plant extermination. ”
"In the old words of your Yu Xia Kingdom, this belongs to intentionally planting flowers that do not bloom, and unintentionally planting willows and willows into the shade." Marcus explained.
Song Ziyu nodded and said, "Okay, since it's all discussed here, I'm not actually interested in the topic of your immortality, I just want to know, can your company come up with a potion to kill this plant?" ”
Marcus shook his head and said, "It's true, the vitality of this plant is very tenacious, almost demonic!" We've been working on it for a long time, but we haven't developed a potion that can kill it directly...... Since I have promised to be honest with you, I cannot deceive you. ”
Hearing this, Song Ziyu's whole person was a little bad.
"What about development? I can wait......" Song Ziyu said.
Marcus shook his head and said: "This project is too long, no one can guarantee you, and the development of a new groundbreaking drug requires a huge injection of funds and talents, which also depends on the company's financial situation, I can't bet on everything." ”
When Song Ziyu heard this, his heart sank into the valley.
At this time, Marcus continued, "Although we have not developed an elixir that can directly kill the sunflower, there is one thing that you might be interested in. ”
"What?" Song Ziyu asked.
Marcus opened the safe, took out a potion from it and said, "X-01 potent inhibitor, the effect is very obvious. ”
"What's the use?"
Song Ziyu asked.
Marcus didn't answer in words, just took out five milliliters of the potion and sprinkled it directly on Sunflower's mouthparts.
And then......
Sunflower began to shake violently, and then spit out the guinea pig it had eaten.
The whole process is very disgusting, as the mice have obviously been corroded by the sunflower......
When Song Ziyu saw this scene, his eyes lit up.
"This inhibitor can ensure that the sunflower will not be able to eat for several hours, and even become sluggish!" Marcus explains, "That's what we use to limit the movement of the sunflower. ”
"I need this potion, the more the better!" Song Ziyu said excitedly.
