Chapter 1 The Mine Tunnel

As the sun sets, the last bit of afterglow shines through a few thin clouds, shrouding a village and town between the mountains and the great lakes, and the smoke reflected in the four stoves has turned into a golden color.

The town is small and looks quaint, not to mention the modern skyscrapers with hundreds of floors, not even buildings with more than five floors, but the double 'well' layout and the criss-crossing eight streets also ensure that the population here is more than 10,000.

At this time, when dinner is approaching, the villagers who have gone down to the fields and who work have begun to go home, those who are close to the road gather together to talk and laugh and walk, and those who are far away are hurried back by motorcycle, and occasionally a few cars are driving on the streets.

Only the center of the town covers an area of two or three hectares, there are halls and forests inside, and the old door plaque with the words 'Xingtian Palace' written on the plaque of the old door does not seem to be harmonious, and there is a noisy sound mixed with coughing, "Little cub, you little cub."

I was at my house a while ago, and I couldn't get rid of it, but now I want to leave, and let you have a meal and then go as if your Azu begged you, if you don't eat, you deserve to starve, get out, get out, get out..."

"Hey, hey... Your surname is Li, my surname is Zhang, you are my grandfather, why did you become Azu again.

Grandpa, don't even remember your name when you're old. As soon as the angry scolding landed, the mottled wooden door of the ancient temple was pushed open, and a young man who was not tall, with a basin and a body full of fat intestines, and was about seventeen or eighteen years old, rushed out of the temple door with a smile, while deliberately saying loudly and loudly to provoke people's anger;

While pulling two nylon strings vigorously, he dragged out two fat and strong mongrel dogs with a body that was almost the same as half a calf, and ran towards the road outside the town by stepping on a pair of dirty sneakers that could not be seen in the primary color.

Before he could take two steps, he saw an old man in a dry house who was somewhat similar to the young man between his eyebrows, wearing a gray and white coat that no one cared about now, stuck his head out of the temple gate, looked at the young man's hurried steps, and shouted: "Slow down, slow down."

You little bunny be careful to fall, the last bus is still early, just in time. ”

"I know grandpa, you go back to eat quickly, be careful when it's cold, and I'll come to see you in a few days." The fat boy smiled back and beckoned, but his pace quickened a little.

In a rather large town, the residents inside naturally do not know each other, but the boy who is leading the earth dog and running on the smooth concrete floor is obviously a 'celebrity', at least the neighbors in the streets and alleys know his name, and from time to time someone said with a smile: "You have to go back to Yuanbei so late, Muzi?";

"You kid doesn't know how to accompany your grandfather to learn skills, now it's so difficult to find a job, a ready-made property is waiting for you to inherit, and you don't know how to cherish the blessings. ”;

"The chicken I just killed, Muzi eats a chicken leg and then goes to the car, it's too late. ”...

The sound of greetings from the streets reached his ears, but the boy just ran and waved his hands, shouting to everyone, "No, no..."

Leaving the noise behind, the scene in front of the young man suddenly became desolate, the cement road outside the town leading to the provincial road, and there was a street lamp illuminated by twenty or thirty meters apart, although it was more spacious, but the dim light could not drive away, and the dense woods on both sides of the road brought people an eerie feeling.

'Hehe...' panted heavily, and stopped against the curb stone, and the young man shouted in his mouth, "Stop..."

Stunned for a moment, he tilted his head sideways and looked at the dense forest with no light inside. Involuntarily swallowed and foamed, hesitated with a hesitant expression on his face, gritted his teeth and untied the backpack behind his back, took out a miner's lighting helmet made of hard plastic and put it on his head, flicked the button, and turned on the spotlight.

A pillar of light shone directly into the woods to dispel some of the darkness, and the boy took a deep breath, put back on his backpack, and led the two big dogs into the forest carefully.

The mountainous semi-basin terrain on both sides, coupled with the adjacent lake, the tall trees and slippery soil of the forest that have not been cut down for decades, and the strange sound of 'squirting...' from time to time in the silence makes people feel more and more frightened as they walk.

Fortunately, the young man was accompanied by two hundred and eighty pounds, fierce earth dogs, and it was impossible for particularly ferocious beasts to inhabit in the woods near the big towns and small towns, so under the support of the barking dogs, he still persevered, trekked through the mud, and walked out of the woods with all his strength.

Beyond the woodland was a barren low hill, crisscrossed with rusty railroad tracks, and a few old man-powered iron minecarts were scattered on the tracks, which were as chilling as monsters lying on the ground in the dim darkness of the night.

A cold wind blew, and the sweaty young man shivered, looked around cautiously, and his eyes swept to an abandoned mine hole dug in the mountain wall a few hundred meters away, and his face showed a happy expression.

"I found it, a qiē shun lì. He clenched his fists and waved them, muttering to himself to give himself courage, and led the earth dog towards the cave, and in a short time the figure disappeared into the cave.

The slippery mud floor with three railroad tracks laid side by side in the darkness was a reminder of the mine's former glory, but now the moss-covered tunnels with the constant sound of 'tick-tock-tock' water were desolate and terrifying.

There was no food in the abandoned mine, so it was supposed that no animals would inhabit it, but this one's proximity to fertile farmland and adjacent to the woods was an exception, and it was infested with pests.

I already regretted it in my heart, but after spending so much effort, the young man who was unwilling to give up halfway recalled his childhood memories in his heart, and moved forward step by step, the spotlight on his head and the fierce dog around him startled the voles and insects on the ground to flee in all directions.

After walking more than 100 meters in fear, he suddenly felt that the road under his feet suddenly steepened, turning into a slope close to one hundred and twenty degrees, and the young man's eyes showed a little joy.

Quickly moving forward along the slope for another thirty or forty meters, he stopped, gasped, and untied the backpack behind his back again, and found a three-inch square leather cardboard box from it.

The box is very beautifully packaged, one side is densely filled with the universal text of the Galactic Federation like a picture, and there is a Chinese translation pasted next to it, which reads, "This product is honorably produced by the 'Strong Aid Company', numbered 03087612...

Incubation method: continuous heating at high temperature above 55 degrees...

Incubation environment: damp, dark, windless, spacious..."

"Wet, dark, windless, spacious... Completely qualified!" Looking at the carton on his finger and looking at the terrible environment around him, the boy seemed to forget the fear just now, grinned, muttered in a low voice and tore the box open hard, but carefully came out of it a small ball that looked like an egg, but was covered with gray spots, and felt elastic.

"This is Samsung's 'bio-assistant egg', it's really a rubber ball-like thing, it's incredible..."Dropping the tattered packaging box, looking down at the gray class ball in his hand, the teenager's body trembled with excitement, muttered in admiration, took out a small alcohol stove from his backpack, lit it and sat on a small pot of boiled white water eggs.

The empty pot was heated for a while, and he seemed to have forgotten his fear, so he turned off the spotlight above his head impatiently, and put the gray spot ball in his hand into the pot with an expectant face.

Lost the light source, only a faint light of fire swayed on the ground, and the two earth dogs on the side suddenly barked vigorously again.

"Okay, Xiaobai, Ah Huang, shut up, stop, stop..." leaned down and patted the head of the earth dogs, and stopped their barking loudly, the young man squatted on the ground and looked at the gray spot ball in the pot without blinking, until more than ten minutes, seeing that the bottom of the pot had begun to turn slightly red, but there was still no abnormality.

Gradually, the expectant eyes became more and more disappointed, and finally evolved into an annoyed and angry expression, the young man gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice, "Could it be that I was deceived again, I deceived Xiao again, I took my money to buy a coffin, and the dead scum ...", the more he said, the more angry he became, and finally he couldn't help but spit a few mouthfuls of saliva angrily at the pot.

After that, the boy wanted to get up and leave, but he didn't expect that a vision suddenly appeared.

I saw that the gray blob in the pot that had been heated for a long time immediately became 'soft' after coming into contact with the saliva falling from the sky, and in just a few seconds, it turned into a paste, spread flat to the bottom of the pot, and constantly writhed.

Seeing this scene, the young man was startled at first, then showed a surprised expression, and squatted down again curiously, ignoring the muddy water on the ground, supporting the ground with both hands, lowering his head, and his eyes kept moving towards the pot.

Just when his head was still a foot or two closer to the bottom of the pot, suddenly the paste in the pot popped like a rubber ball, and it actually covered the young man's face!
