Ye Ling's hand retracted, avoiding Han Da'er's hand that reached over to pick up the mirror core.

Han Daring said:

"Can't touch it? What is the meaning? ”

Several other people in the ward are also a little puzzled, the so-called core of the Yuanqiao Immortal Mirror is just a thick copper sheet, but the rust is mottled and very old, and it is not necessarily a great thing, saying that this is a fairy treasure is even more nonsense.

Is it possible to bow to such an old copper piece and take it after bathing and fasting? This is not the holy decree of the emperor!

Although Han Dada'er was asking, he actually vaguely understood what Ye Ling meant in his heart, because earlier this mirror core was in Huozui's hand, and later he sold the mirror core to Abel Bertrand, the son of the president of the French Chamber of Commerce, but he had a strange disease, not only did he become violent and unconscious, but he also had a black and shiny cuticle on his body.

Therefore, Han Dada'er once suspected that there might be some kind of radioactive element in this mirror core, and if he was infected by this radioactive substance, physical lesions would occur, but this inference was quickly denied by himself, because this mirror core was originally the half-grown child Zhang Dayou, and he had been carrying it closely, and he did not see anything wrong, and there was nothing abnormal in his body.

In addition, when he saw Bertrand at the auction later, and saw Ye Ling and him care, he instantly understood that Bertrand bought the mirror core completely because of Ye Ling's beauty. However, since Bertrand has been in contact with the mirror core, if the mirror core really contains radioactive materials, after such a period of time, Bertrand should have the same symptoms as his mouth, but Bertrand is not harmed is enough to prove that it is not the mirror core that is wrong.

At this time, Ye Ling's words made Han Daring a little confused, could it be that there was really something wrong with this mirror core, but it was not an invisible radioactive ray, but a special toxin that would only be triggered by skin contact? But Otomo has been sticking to the meat and carrying this thing, and there is nothing unusual.

Although Ye Ling held the core of the mirror with his hand, he had always been separated by a layer of blue cloth and did not touch it with his hand.

Just listen to Ye Lingdao:

"This thing is very weird, it can't touch the skin, if you touch it directly with your hands......"

"Will it be poisoned?"

Wang Weihan couldn't wait to ask.

In fact, at the auction earlier, Ye Ling also saw Wang Weihan, but it was Wang Weihan who put on makeup, and now Wang Weihan has removed his disguise, so Ye Ling didn't come out for a while, but since this person is with Han Da'er, he shouldn't be a bad person.

Ye Ling shook his head and said:

"It's not poisoning, but once you touch this mirror core directly with your hand, you have to always carry this thing with you, if this thing leaves a certain range of yourself, then your body will be abnormal, and you will even die!"

Speaking of this, Ye Ling's expression was gloomy, as if he had been involved in some sad past.

Han Daring said:

"As far as I know, this mirror core was stolen from the Bell Pavilion underground palace by your father, the three-eyed god fox Ye Zhiqiu......"

Gou Shao listened to Han Da'er's words, and suddenly interjected:

"It turns out that your father took the mirror core from the secret room? It hurt me and the gray-robed monk to go to the underground palace under the middle school of the Bell Pavilion together, and almost took my life, but I returned empty-handed! ”

Han Da'er ignored Gou's interference and continued:

“…… Senior Ye stole the mirror core, and later because of the fight with the yellow-robed ancestor, the mirror core was lost, but it accidentally fell into the hands of a farmer who was driving a big cart...... Could it be that it was because of the loss of the mirror core that Senior Ye ......"

Ye Ling nodded, his expression was sad and said:

"After the core of the mirror was lost, my dad got a strange disease...... caused the old wounds when the Sanyang Sect chased and killed...... It didn't take long to ...... Passed away! ”

Han Da'er asked rhetorically:

"Strange disease? Isn't it dementia and rage, and ...... Some jet-black and shiny cuticles grow on the body, like a bug carapace? ”

Ye Ling was very surprised:

"How do you know? …… My father was afraid that he would lose his normality and hurt me and my brother, so he locked himself in the house in his last days, leaving only a small opening to deliver food and water......

…… Then one day, I heard a scream coming from the room, and when I unlocked the door and opened it, I found ...... Found out that my dad had passed away, and ...... Most of his body was ...... It seems to have been dissolved by something...... From the inside out, from the body......

At that time, most of his body was ...... It's already covered in black carapace......"

Han Daring said in his heart, it seems that what he expected is true, and the cause of the strange disease is really because of contact with this mirror core.

Mei Ruohong had already heard Han Daring talk about the whole story of the mucus samples sent for testing, and just now she heard Ye Ling's words, so she suddenly said:

"It's supposed to be water!"

"What should be water?"

Han Daring asked.

Mei Ruohong said to Ye Ling:

"You said that your father's body has a dissolution phenomenon......"

Ye Ling nodded.

Mei Ruohong continued:

"Maybe your father's death was because of the water!"

A few people present, except for Gou Shao, who was not too interested in these and ate pear slices and drank tea, the rest of the people were surprised by Mei Ruohong's words.

Mei Ruohong said to Han Daring:

"Actually, I wanted to tell you a long time ago, but I was delayed by the evil thing at the auction just now!

I had the toxins from the switchgear in the auction room taken to the laboratory in Bath, and when I got a call from my colleague, he told me that the toxins were tetrodotoxin, and that the mucus you had sent for testing earlier had also had preliminary test results.

The mucus samples were human tissues that had been mutated, and although there were still very few human cell features, the cells in the mucus had completely transformed from humans to another unknown substance. Because this discovery is so peculiar, the director is still personally testing and researching.

These mucus are not contagious, and the cells are extremely active, so they are difficult to kill, but they have a very special property, that is, they will autolyze when they encounter water! ”

Several people were amazed when they heard this.

Han Daring said:

"Do you mean to say that Senior Ye was killed by autolysis because he drank water, so his body reacted with water?"

Ye Lingdao:

"Impossible, after my dad got sick, I brought food and water into the room from a small window every day, and my dad didn't have any abnormal reaction when he drank water!"

Mei Ruohong Road:

"I suspect that as the body becomes more and more mutated, the response to water will gradually increase......

…… Your father...... Perhaps he discovered that water began to dissolve itself, so he drank a lot of water while still being sane...... Know yourself! ”

Han Daring said:

"No wonder the big-eyed thief said that the disease is getting worse and worse, but then he doesn't drink much water, and he seems to be a little afraid of water......"

Ye Ling thought that his father knew that water would cause his body to dissolve itself, but he still deliberately drank a lot of water, thinking that he must be afraid of dragging himself and his younger brother, and even more afraid that he would hurt his sister and brother after losing his mind, so he chose to drink water to commit suicide, and he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart when he thought of this.

Han Da'er didn't know how to comfort Ye Ling, Mei Ruohong walked over and gently stroked Ye Ling's shoulder with her hand to comfort her slightly.

Han Daring said:

"So, you know that the mirror core has this property, and when the Bertrand with you bought the glass core from the open mouth, you asked him to bring gloves, and he will be safe and sound!"

Ye Ling nodded.

Han Da'er was puzzled by one more thing in her heart, so she asked:

"This wick has the same effect on everybody, or is it...... Vary? ”

Ye Ling didn't know why Han Daring asked this, but he heard Han Daring say again:

"I just mentioned that after the predecessor of this mirror core leaf was lost, it was picked up by a farmer surnamed Zhang who drove a big car.

It is also a coincidence, the ancestors of this farmer's family have been looking for the mirror core of the Yuanqiao Immortal Mirror, and they don't want to get this thing by accident. Although it didn't take long for the farmer to die, it had nothing to do with the mirror core, and his death was completely different from that of Ye senior.

Later, the mirror core passed into the hands of the farmer's son, and the child had been wearing the mirror core close to the flesh, but not long ago, the mirror core was taken away by Nanshi's open mouth, so he gave it to Bertrand......"

Although Gou Shao was not interested in this topic, he just sat on the side to eat and drink, but when he heard Han Daring'er's words, he also heard that the farmer's child that Han Dada'er was talking about was the second brother-in-law's second brother-in-law's house, and the old mother Zhang's mother's child was the eldest friend, so he pricked up his ears and listened quietly.

I only heard Han Da'er continue:

"According to what you said, this mirror core cannot be touched, as long as it is touched, it cannot leave the surrounding area, otherwise it will cause strange diseases. But I saw the child a few days ago, and the child is still fine, with no pain at all, and no symptoms of a strange disease! ”

Ye Ling was very puzzled when he heard this, and Mei Ruohong was also very surprised, and asked:

"As far as I know, if a radioactive substance is harmful to the human body, the sooner you stay away, the more the symptoms will be weakened, and there is no reason why the radioactive source will leave the body, but it will cause symptoms of infection.

So you just said that after touching this core, you can't separate it from the core, otherwise it will cause strange diseases, but I don't believe this at all. ”

Ye Lingdao:

"Sister Mei, what I said is true!"

Han Daring also said:

This statement seems to have nothing to do with science, in fact, I don't believe it, but it is the same situation and the same disease before, and it does seem to have been confirmed. But the fact that the child was unharmed under the same circumstances seemed paradoxical......"

Wang Weihan listened on the side, but his eyes kept looking at the mirror core, he wanted to take it and take a look just now, but after listening to Han Dada'er's narration, he didn't dare to stretch out his hand rashly, thought about it and said:

"Could this be a virus?"

Mei Ruohong also seemed to agree with Wang Weihan's statement, and after a little muttering, he said:

"I think so too!

It may be understood that this so-called mirror core does contain some unknown virus, and once it comes into contact with the skin, it will be infected. But as long as the source of infection, that is, the mirror core, is always around, the person who is infected with the virus, the virus in the body will be suppressed in the incubation period, and once it is far away from the source of infection, the symptoms of infection will suddenly break out!

This mirror core is equivalent to a switch of the virus, although this is not logical, but from the current situation, it can only be understood in this way.

As for the child you just mentioned, maybe their family has some kind of antibody that can fundamentally suppress or resist this virus, or maybe not. ”

Han Da'er asked:

"Then your laboratory has studied the samples I sent, can you find a cure?"

Mei Ruohong Road:

"We don't even know what this is now, as far as the current situation is concerned, there is no way to talk about a cure, and from the perspective of the activity of the mutated cells, it is basically impossible to reverse it!"

She looked at the mirror core in Ye Ling's hand, and continued:

"I'd like to bring this core back to the lab and do a full inspection on one side with the lab equipment, maybe I can figure out this strange situation!"

Before Ye Ling could speak, Wang Weihan said:

"This is an ancient artifact, and it is related to some legends, and it is one of the keys to finding the Endless Country, and it would not be good if the laboratory was damaged."

Ye Ling also said:

"Sister Mei, I know you want to help, but this mirror core has always been the target of the Sanyang Sect, if you take it for testing, it is likely to cause trouble for you and the laboratory, the people of the Sanyang Sect are ruthless, in case ...... That's so sorry big brother! ”

Mei Ruohong glanced at Han Da'er and said:

"You think about your big brother very much, don't worry, I don't need to take the core of the mirror, I only need to scrape a little surface material from it and take it for testing!"

As he spoke, he turned around and walked out of the ward, and not long after he borrowed a pair of medical rubber gloves and a scalpel from somewhere.

Mei Ruohong put on gloves, scraped some patina from the edge of the mirror core with a scalpel, then put it in a glass test tube, plugged the plug, and continued:

"If there really is an unknown virus, these tests should be enough!"

Han Daring also brought a pair of borrowed gloves, and then held the mirror core with a blue cloth to look at it carefully. There is some uncleaned yellow wax sticking to the indentation of the mirror core, which should be the wax model when the mirror core is inverted and faked.

He carefully wiped the mirror core with a blue cloth, and found that the back of the mirror core was uneven, but it was not a pattern or patina, but a special concave and convex module like a standing building block.
