The depths of the cave are dark and do not see the light, but the bottom of the cave naturally forms a spacious space, before entering the passage at the bottom of the cave, the weathered and fractured rock wall presents an arch, Luo's father rushed to the bottom of the cave and followed the survey team, the red flag mark left on the road, and walked towards the south, at first the eyes were very dim, but when passing through the narrow slit, a faint cyan shimmer flashed in front of the eyes, the glimmer was like an open fire in the dark, reflecting on the face to make people feel at ease, and suddenly swept away the depression in everyone's hearts when entering the cave, It's as if the air is fresh.

"Put on your hazmat suit."

Father Luo really wanted to go in quickly to see the source of the glow, but he didn't forget to put on protective clothing, if there was some radiation in it, they would not be killed in a minute.

"Professor Luo, you're finally here."

Luo's father and the others put on protective clothing and just walked into the depths of the cave filled with clear light, and the survey team that had been waiting here for a long time hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.

"How's it going?"

Father Luo asked.

"The legend is true, she is real."

The captain of the survey team was a little incoherent, and waved his hand as he spoke, guiding everyone towards the shining place.

"My God......"

Luo's father looked at the radiant source, wiped the fine dust stained on the mirror of the helmet, and saw that the source was a huge cyan gem that was a person high, and the stone was crystal clear as a whole, and the scene behind could be seen clearly through the stone.

I saw that among the crystal clear divine stones, there was a girl dressed in green clothes, her skin was as white as jade, her face was beautiful and picturesque, she curled up slightly, a pair of white and tender bare feet naturally hung down, and her eyes were closed and she was sleeping in the gem.

"Professor Luo, the instrument detected that she still has vital signs."

"She's alive."

The captain of the survey team gasped, unable to bear the excitement in his heart.

"I know."

Father Luo only replied with such a sentence, it sounded bland, but his eyes betrayed his true emotions, his eyes were full of excitement and fanaticism, for a scientist, a gem is worthless, but a gem that can make a young girl last forever, made his scalp and all the scientific researchers present numb, and his heart was full of shock.

"She's the Green Snake?"

Huang Luqin behind him said, and took out the tablet to look through, there are some murals on it, painting the story of a cyan snake being sealed in a gem, in the legend, the green snake absorbed the aura of heaven and earth, transformed into a human form, and later offended the people of the dynasty and was sealed into a gem.

After reading it, she looked at the surrounding stone walls and found that there were similar walls here, recording various images of the life of the green snake before it was sealed in the gem, which made her more sure that the legend was true.

That's right, many years ago, the official has detected strange energy fluctuations in the northwest area, but at that time, due to technical limitations, it has not been able to find the final source, in recent years, science and technology have advanced by leaps and bounds, the official once again carried out reconnaissance and reconnaissance operations, and now finally found the source of the strange energy, which is the jade gem in front of you!

"It's not a legend anymore, it's a reality."

Father Luo didn't look at the gem again, but looked at the murals on the wall, his face was full of surprise, "It seems that the previous folk rumors are true, the snake people really exist, they may be a completely new race." ”

After a pause, he continued, "Remember to keep the mural intact, this is the little information we have about this race at the moment. ”

"Professor Luo, do you think it's a race, isn't it a demon or a god?"

The captain of the survey team on the side asked.

"I am a materialist, there are no demons and gods in this world, everything can be explained by science, any metaphysical and fantastic phenomena can be explained by science, if one day there is something that makes most people believe in the existence of gods, please remember my words, it is because human beings do not understand that kind of thing, they will regard it as a god, just like once human beings stood in a small world, looking up at the vast galaxy, and regarded everything beyond the deep space as the heavenly court, the divine realm, the heavenly realm, the upper realm, and the earth as the mortal world, But when human beings broke through the atmosphere and began to explore the vast galaxy, they found that everything was just fantasy, and all fantasy and fear and awe were born from ignorance. ”

Luo's father said as he asked people to set up a temporary site to prepare for the detection of gems, and he chattered, "I once went to the United States to study in Port of Mercy, where the snow scene is very beautiful, and it is in the ice and snow all year round, where I also saw something about mythology on the mural, recording a group of gods living under the sea.

The locals call it the god of the sea, his presence has caused the fishing industry in the port of mercy to increase dramatically, and the locals therefore regard it as a guardian god, thinking that the god of the sea can bring blessings, in fact, after reconnaissance and investigation, we found that the so-called god of the sea may only be a species of creatures that can live on the bottom of the sea, we have even found his traces on the beach, he may look very similar to people, has the ability to live underwater, and may be lurking in the port of mercy, but we have not tracked down too much, Because he did not cause any harm or loss to the locals. ”

"This is very similar to the story of the green snake, listening to Professor Luo say this, the earth does not seem to be safe, because we humans are not the only race."

The captain of the survey team listened with relish and replied.

"Not only the earth, but also other life forms in the vast universe......"

Luo Wei said this, thinking of the son at home, his expression was a little complicated and did not continue, but turned his head and continued to set up a temporary research site, because this natural cave is very large, and the gems are placed in the middle position, so they built a greenhouse to wrap the gems, and began to detect the radiation indicators around them, until they determined that the radiation indicators were not enough to harm the human body, and then dared to continue to let more people go down to the bottom of the cave to work.

The level of infrastructure in Huaxia is very high, and in half a day, that is, in the middle of the night, the greenhouse and several temporary sites for research have been built, and the various staff have begun to enter the state of work, the first thing is to observe the state of the girl and the gem.

After many tests, it is now certain that the girl in the gem is still alive, and what keeps her alive is the special energy emitted by this gem, which has made her sleep for such a long time, and there is no abnormality in all aspects of her body, she has been in a state of sleep, her metabolism is stagnant, she will not grow or age, and the girl in the gem seems to have been pressed the pause button.

"Luqin, you write a report later, and I'll go up and have a meeting with them."

Outside the greenhouse, Luo's father glanced at the non-abnormal gem, said to his wife, turned around and walked towards the ground, now it is late at night, except for the guards standing guard at the entrance of the cave, now only Huang Luqin is on duty in the greenhouse, and the other staff have gone to sleep.

"Hoo ......"

Huang Luqin wore protective clothing, walked not far from the gem, did not dare to get closer, and then lowered his head to pick up the pen and paper.

Airplanes......

Suddenly, she noticed that the cyan jade in front of her was humming, with the vicissitudes of antiquity and sad crying, and the glowing light also began to ripple like waves, and the ripples seemed to be a pair of small hands caressing the whole body.

"I want to go out..."

Huang Luqin heard it, and there was a shout in her ear, she swallowed, and tried her best to keep calm and look up.

The sight that caught her eyes made her pupils constrict, because the girl in the gem slowly opened her eyes, those eyes were glowing with clear glass, as if they contained thousands of stars, but her eyes blinked, as if she was very confused about her situation, frowning slightly and biting her red lips, as if she was trying to break free from the shackles of the gem.

Huang Luqin quickly calmed down in simple clothes, she is also an experienced scientific researcher, and immediately pressed the communicator to notify her colleagues that there was an emergency, and then took a few steps back, because in the murals and rumors, the reporter snake people are very dangerous, most of them eat living beings for food, and have also attacked villages to eat people.

"Bang" However, before she could retreat, the gem suddenly cracked into several cracks, reflecting a faint clear light, and a stream of ancient breath hit, and in a trance she seemed to see a blue-scaled python, which made people feel a great chill surging up in their hearts.

Bang!

In the next second, the gem was completely shattered and turned into a splash of stones, and it still emitted a clear light when it fell around, like countless small lights.

Then the girl also fell out of the stone, the pair of white and tender toes reddish jade feet, stepping on the ground full of stones, she just stood there pursed her mouth, a pair of blue eyes staring at Huang Luqin.

"Little girl, we don't have any ill will towards you......"

Huang Luqin said while retreating, she was stared at by the girl and panicked, don't look at the girl's petite and delicate appearance, you must know that the person in front of her is not a human being, but a snake man, the description of them in the mural species is a race that can swallow elephants alive, and it is also a cold-blooded animal, from a scientific point of view, such a race is very animalistic, of course, human beings also have animal nature, but after thousands of years of evolution, it has almost no ......

Under such a psychological effect, Huang Luqin did not dare to move rashly.

At this time, the girl spoke, and it was her words that made Huang Luqin stunned in place, a little stunned, and at the same time a little overwhelmed.

"You... Help me find a pair of shoes..."

"My feet hurt from the stones......"

The green snake bit his lip with white teeth, said with red eyes, stepping barefoot on the floor full of stones, his pink toes were curled up in pain, and his legs trembled slightly.

...

...

Ten days later, Kyoto.

A towering building in the heart of the city, it is a landmark of the city, overlooking all the bustling streets around it, and it is also one of the most important scientific research bureaus in China.

The first rays of the morning sun shine into one of the rooms of the building, which has a special structure and interior, with no furniture except for a bed and chair and bookshelves full of books, the walls and floors are all white, and the only separate toilet and bathroom are in the deepest corner.

The green snake sat quietly on the edge of the bed and read a book, masculine sprinkled on her pretty face, small nose, delicate facial features, starry eyes, and a cherry mouth that grew slightly in surprise from time to time.

For others, waking up may be the next day, but for her, a thousand years have passed since she woke up, the world has changed dramatically, people no longer wear long robes and long sleeves, short shirts with exposed arms, and shorts with exposed legs, and people no longer go out on horseback, but make a kind of big tin box to go out, and the big suitcase can even fly in the sky.

The green snake's head hurts, because this is equivalent to the collapse and reshaping of the worldview for her, because of this, she has not gone out since she was brought here ten days ago, because on the day she woke up, Aunt Huang explained everything to herself, and she slept for a thousand years.

The strange world outside scared her, she didn't dare to run around casually, she could only understand the world by reading books, the contents of the books were the ancient texts of the era in which she lived, and the books were sent one after another.

"How's she doing these days?"

The same is in the building.

In an office, a middle-aged man in a black uniform asked, sitting opposite Luo's father and Huang Luqin.

"Zhang Ju, according to these observations, I know that she has a vague memory of her past life, only remembering that she is called Qingci, and nothing else has been said, in addition to this, our researchers have also found that there is a stream of energy in her body, although she has been unwilling to release it, but we judge that the energy should be able to be radiated in some way, similar to a laser beam, or to convert energy into other abilities."

Based on the results of these ten days' observations, Luo's father made a simple report summary, "Her physical characteristics are very similar to those of the Alien People, and there are studies that show that the Snake People are very likely to have evolved from the Alien People, but they have more obvious characteristics in snakes and are more numerous, so they formed a group in a certain period, which led to the legend of the Snake People." ”

"Well, that's a good analysis, do you think she's a threat."

Zhang Ju flipped through the contents of the report and nodded.

"It's... My advice is to observe for a while. ”

Father Luo was stunned for a moment before he said.

"Well, but you don't have to worry about the green snake for now, the official will send someone to take over, you can take advantage of this time to go back and have a good rest."

Zhang Ju put away the report and said.

"Zhang Ju, I can't tell if she is really a threat in a short period of time, we don't know her well enough, but she hasn't shown any danger at the moment, and she doesn't have any ill will towards us, my advice is not to do too radical experimental tests first, so as not to anger her."

Huang Luqin next to him mistakenly thought that Zhang Ju was not satisfied, and immediately said: "After all, she was only seventeen years old when she fell asleep......"

"You may have misunderstood me, I wasn't trying to slice her."

Zhang Ju smiled slightly when he heard this, he was a northerner, his face was wide, his eyebrows revealed righteousness, and his broad shoulders and tall body made him look full of strength even if he was middle-aged.

He looked at the two couples and said: "The official has a plan now, I'll tell you, anyway, it's not a secret internally, now the official has set up a self-improvement department, ready to recruit strange people to join and form a super hero organization, in fact, I was thinking just now that the green snake will be a good object." ”

"Self-improvement department?"

Father Luo didn't expect that the official was still considering this aspect.

"Well, so don't worry, go back and get some rest."

Listening to the words of Zhang Ju, the person in charge of the Scientific Research Bureau, Luo's father and Huang Luqin had no choice but to start handing over with the people in the self-improvement department, it just so happened that they had not taken a vacation for a long time, and they could take advantage of this time to accompany Luo Wei, they had too much guilt for this son, since Luo Wei was ten years old, they didn't stay at home much and often traveled on business.

But after the handover is completed, before leaving.

Huang Luqin still went to see the green snake and informed the other party of the next situation, so as not to suddenly change the person from the self-improvement department to manage the green snake, so that the little girl would be frightened, especially in so many interactions, she felt that the green snake was actually similar to a human child, plus research showed that the so-called snake man may be a strange person, a smart human mutation, which also made her less estranged and more concerned about the green snake.

"You guys are leaving, can I go with you?"

When the green snake heard that the aunt who had taken him for so many days was leaving, his eyes were full of anticipation and asked.

"I'm sorry, Xiaoqing, your current state is not suitable to go out."

Huang Luqin shook his head and said.

"Actually, you're afraid that I'll hurt other people, right?"

The green snake was smart and whispered.

"No, you're also human, I'm just worried that you won't be able to adapt to the current world, but don't be afraid, the uncles and aunts outside will help you."

Huang Luqin said and pointed to the staff of the self-improvement department outside, and the other party also waved politely, and then she continued: "When you get used to it in the future, you can come to me." ”

"Flying tin box to find you?"

Green Snake asked, and at the same time became interested, she felt very novel, people can fly with the help of that iron box, which is completely impossible in ancient times.

"Well, that's called an airplane, it's a means of transportation."

Huang Luqin was saying that the mobile phone rang, and it was Luo's father who sent a message to remind him that the plane was about to arrive and that he had to hurry to the airport.

She put away her mobile phone, took out a red bag embroidered with the word Fu from her pocket, which contained glutinous rice, and stuffed it into the hand of the green snake, "Come, take it, this thing will keep you smooth, and when you have the opportunity, Auntie will take you to the plane, bye." ”

After saying that, she got up and waved goodbye, and only turned around and left the room after seeing the green snake put away the lucky bag and beckoned.

The people outside also closed the door.

However, no one noticed that the blue light flashed under the green snake's eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose to reveal an evil smile, "Why can't you go on a plane now?" ”

As she spoke, her body gradually faded, and finally became transparent, and then the door seemed to be pushed by something, and it seemed that a figure passed through the iron gate, which also made the guards standing guard outside shiver, but the corridor was still empty and nothing, but the end of the corridor was inexplicably lit up by the sensor light.
