Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Half-Ape Horse
There seemed to be some sounds lingering in the darkness, not from the cold wind outside the cave, but from inside the cave, to be precise, from the dark depths of the cave, and there was a sound in an invisible place. Darkness itself can make people feel frightened, and unfamiliar places can also bring people a sense of oppression, so what kind of feeling can a dark and unfamiliar place give people?
Luo Shiyilang's ears involuntarily pricked up after hearing the voice, Meng Liang seemed to hear it too, everyone fought to breathe and looked at the dark corner, although they couldn't see anything, but staring at that place could also add some courage to them.
When the eyes were about to swell, suddenly, a pair of blue-green balls appeared in the dark, as if a boring black curtain suddenly appeared with life, at the same time, Luo Shiyi Lang and the others all stood up after a hurried voice, looking in that direction vigilantly, Nanjian also pulled out his sword.
Suddenly, there was a small but shrill sound in the darkness, making everyone uncomfortable to listen to in addition to being afraid. Gradually, they retreated towards the entrance of the cave, and it was better to get out of the cave, otherwise if a beast pounced on the cave, the humans who could not do it in the narrow hole would surely be injured.
As they retreated backwards, the blue-green bright spot approached, but it was still impossible to see what it was. When Luo Shiyi Lang came out of the cave, he couldn't see the situation in the zigzag cave clearly, and the bright spots disappeared, I don't know if it would also come out. Luo Shiyi Lang asked Nanjian to take a few girls far away, so as not to be hurt by the beasts that rushed out, many of the plots in the movie are like this, after a long and quiet wait, suddenly with a huge and rapid sound of recollection, a monster slammed into the screen from the shadows, and then frightened the audience to scream. Luo Shiyi Lang thought of the different but identical pictures and scenes in many movies, and silently prayed in his heart not to appear in this scene.
Luo Shiyi Lang stared at the entrance of the cave without blinking, and sure enough, the thrilling scene did not appear, but the bright spot reappeared instead, it slowly approached the entrance of the cave, and then got closer and closer, and stepped into the place where the moonlight poured out. A black shadow slowly emerged at the entrance of the cave, Luo Shiyi Lang held his breath, for fear that his breathing would affect his vision and miss the critical moment, Meng Liang also narrowed his eyes, his vision was not as good as Luo Shi Lang, so he could only squint his eyes to make the light enter the pupil more accurately, in fact, Meng Li's vision eyes were very good, and they fully met the standards of pilots, but there were a few people whose vision power could be comparable to Luo Shi Lang, and it was estimated that only the eagle flying in the blue sky would dare to match it.
Zhou Lun looked intently, and unconsciously opened his mouth slightly into an O-shape. Finally, under the expectation of everyone, the black shadow appeared in its original form.
How could this be?" Luo Shiyi Lang frowned slightly, thinking in his heart. Nan Jian also asked strangely, "Hey, we actually lived in the ape-man's cave." Indeed, living in the cave of apes is more or less unpleasant, and it would be better to be in the same cave with wolves, tigers and leopards, after all, humans always think that they evolved step by step from apes, and now they meet them in the same cave, and they always feel strange in their hearts.
Something even stranger is yet to come. When Luo Shiyi Lang and the others found out that the cave was actually an ape, the big stone that had been hanging in their hearts couldn't help but put down a big section, after all, the ape is not a carnivorous beast, even if it belongs to the ranks of beasts. But as the ape continued to walk out, the body in the darkness was like a photograph developed in a darkroom, and as the rinse fluid flowed through, a miracle slowly appeared on the empty piece of paper. The ape-man's body was slowly revealed in the bright moonlight, and a miracle followed.
Luo Shiyilang's gaze swept from the ape-man's head to the lower part of the body, passing through the chest, waist, and then to the legs. But there was a knot in his eyes, and instead of the pair of thick and hairy black thighs in his mind, he had thin and long horse legs! How could this be? Luo Shiyi Lang raised his head in surprise, and what caught his eye was a strange body that had completely walked out of the cave and was exposed to the bright moonlight.
What should I call it? Luo Shilang was out of words for a while. Just looked at it in amazement.
"Half-ape horse!", Kunyun's crisp voice came from behind.
"Half-ape?" Luo Shilang repeated again, and a centaur and half-man sheep popped up in his mind, these are all regulars in magic movies, but he has never seen a half-ape horse. Luo Shilang felt a little surprised.
Even more surprising things were still to come, Nan Jian said: I only heard my father say that there are many fierce beasts left from ancient times in the Rain and Mist Forest, but I have never heard of such a monster as a half-ape horse.
"Of course you haven't heard of it", the half-ape horse actually spoke, still speaking standard Mandarin! For a while, everyone took a step back vigilantly, except for Luo Shiyilang, who seemed to be surprised to forget where he was standing, or maybe the artist was bold and felt that there was no need to retreat.
The half-ape horse seemed to see everyone's horror, and continued: "You haven't heard of a creature called a half-ape horse in this world, it's normal, because there is no such thing as me in this world. As he said this, Luo Shilang noticed the sad expression on his face, but it was fleeting and quickly regained his composure. The appearance of the half-ape horse is against the sky, it is against the normal laws of nature, I am neither an orc nor a half-orc, let alone a human race. At this, he laughed self-deprecatingly, and moved his four legs on the ground casually, making a few clattering horses' hooves.
"So what are you... What about the situation?" Luo Shilang tilted his head and stammered a little to ask his own question. Every time he wanted to speak but couldn't pronounce it, he would always tilt his head towards his shoulders, raise his arms slightly towards his shoulders, and wave it, which looked cool.
The half-ape horse didn't seem to have any malicious intent, and when he spoke, he was always very calm or a little gentle, without the slightest aggression, and the half-ape smiled and said: "It's cold outside, since you have found the cave where I am hiding uninvited, then come in and sit down." After saying that, the half-ape horse moved to the side, smiled and stretched out his right arm, making a very gentlemanly gesture of invitation.
Luo Shilang also smiled, and then he led the way to the pitch-black cave. Lang Kai hesitated for a moment, thinking that I had never heard of this animal in all the years I had worked in the Rain and Fog Forest, let alone seen it with my own eyes, what was the situation?
Since Luo Shiyi Lang had already entered, Chen Xi'er followed in almost without thinking about it. Guys, you look at me, I look at you for a while, and I followed in. The inside had already become brighter, because after Luo Shiyi Lang saw Chen Xi'er also coming in, he released the Lishi and illuminated the cave.
This time, the half-ape horse gave them a taste of their half-ape wisdom and let humans see their architectural style. Luo Shiyi Lang and the others followed the half-ape horse to the mezzanine that seemed to have reached the end of the cave, through the light emitted by the stone, Luo Shiyi Lang saw the half-ape horse put his hand into a black groove on the cave wall, only to see his hand stay in it for a while I don't know what Lu Dao did, and instantly Luo Shiyi Lang heard a sound like a gear turning, he remembered that this was the sound he heard just now, but he never expected that there was a mechanism in this small earth cave!
With the sound of gears turning, a gap slowly opened in the ground, and Luo Shilang took the stone a little closer, and saw that below the gap was a staircase leading to the bottom. Lang Kai couldn't help but let out a sound of admiration.
Let me go down and see. After the half-ape horse finished speaking, he took the lead and walked down. Every time he spoke, he was always so soft, and he had a feeling of seeing through the red dust and the world.
The bottom of the mezzanine is completely different from the outside of the cave, because it is furnished and dressed almost like a human bedroom, with a bed, a table, furniture and cutlery. Luo Shiyi Lang scratched his head helplessly after seeing this scene, and then walked to the stool at the table and sat down, he became more and more interested in this strange race, and sat down to hear his story.
The half-ape didn't need a stool, not even a bed, but he had it, and maybe he could use it. Because Luo Shilang had already seen him jump into his bed, half lying on his bed, and began to tell his own story.
You must have come here for the sake of heaven. The first sentence of the half-ape horse begins his story like this, guessing a few things.
And you must have something to do with Tianxing, otherwise you would never have been able to touch the depths of the Rain and Fog Forest, and it took me decades to get out of it. The second sentence was also guessed correctly, but it just made Luo Shilang have a question: You are a native creature of the Rain and Mist Forest, how can you not get out?
The half-ape horse cracked his mouth and laughed again, made some noises, and then said: I am not a native of the rain and mist forest, I can say that there is no father and no mother, because as you can see, I am a half-ape. I'm a group of two animals. I guess you might have guessed it. The soft gaze of the half-ape horse gradually swept over everyone's faces.
You can't be a combination of an ape-man and a horse, right?" Liu Snake asked curiously.
Right. The half-ape nodded in agreement.
Could it be that you are a new species produced by apes and horses that have crossed the barrier of racial genes! Liu Snake's eyes lit up with excitement.
The half-ape horse shook his head with a smile, although he was laughing, the expression on his face still looked a little sad, and he said: Actually, I, like you, also have a certain relationship with Tianxing.
Lang Kai's eyes were full of light, and he listened carefully, hoping that he would continue.
I am a super species bred by Tianxing. They have almost the most advanced science and technology in the world, and some top scientists from various fields are working for Tianxing, they try to reduce the rejection of DNA between different races by modifying genes, and then change the order of bases in the genes, so that organisms of different races can merge. Speaking of which, the half-ape horse deliberately emphasized the meaning of fusion: the recombination of the bodies of two strong animals, that is, the merging of the two into one, into an unprecedented super animal. Not only that, but they also try to stimulate the subconscious in the brain, so that the hidden energy contained in the body can be stimulated as much as possible, so that the animals will not only increase their intelligence, but their physical strength will also be immeasurable like a flash flood.
Speaking of this, Luo Shiyi Lang couldn't help but ask: Then do you have powerful energy in your body now! Every time he talks about something like energy or force, Luo Shiyi Lang is always full of curiosity, and his eyes are full of desire, it seems that he is a sponge, as long as it is a force, he wants to suck it in, this is not only related to his natural character, but also has a great relationship with the cathode demon in his body, because the natural attribute of the demon is to absorb all things, if it does not learn new skills after a period of time, it will be restless in the body, and the situation that reflects is the riot that Luo Shilang cannot restrain himself, the muscles are excited in the body, and they are hardened like basalt, and they must be released after fighting。 Not only that, but under the influence of the Xuan Demon, Luo Shiyi Lang always mastered it at an astonishing speed in a very short period of time every time he practiced martial arts or learned a new kind of magic, which was breathtaking.
The half-ape horse glanced at Luo Shiyi Lang and said with a smile: So to speak.
Luo Shiyilang's eyebrows glanced upward, as if he wanted to compete with him. The half-ape horse also said meaningfully: Tomorrow, let you see and understand. The words are full of gentlemanly demeanor.
Meng Li reminded the half-ape to continue.
The half-ape horse moved its two front feet, changed its posture and continued: I am the first batch of producers of Tianxing in this project, and it is very successful, at that time, as the first batch of products, we invested 8,000 apes and 5,000 horses, because the genes of apes are more complex, so the experiment is more difficult, and the probability of success is relatively smaller. Three thousand of these first subjects were successful, and three thousand half-apes were born and survived.
Three thousand? Lang Kai's eyes were filled with fog-like doubts, and they didn't go away for a long time. How could I not know how to say, are you talking about Tianxing in the rain and mist forest? Lang Kai asked with some excitement. Apparently he felt that little bit of self-esteem had been frustrated. I'm also a manager, so I don't know why it's so important, there's no reason.
The half-ape horse nodded affirmatively, it was the Tianxing Company in the Rain and Mist Forest, and for the entire Tianxing, the start of this project began here.
Lang Kai seemed to hear a thud, and then he felt a bullet flying towards his head, and then...
But there's nothing strange about it, Lang Kai comforted himself in his heart: He also said that it was started here, so it is of great significance, and besides, he is in charge of human beings, and it is about organ collection, and the scientific experiments on their side are not under my control, so it is normal to not be clear!
I have to admire Langkai's self-regulation ability, it's super god!
Meng Liang asked beside him: Then why do you three thousand half-ape horses stay in the forest and wander around?
"To be honest, I don't really know what their real purpose was in creating us, because no one mentioned it, and the scientists who did those experiments never spoke, and they just kept their heads down in the experiments all day long. As for our three thousand half-ape horses, he sniffled as if to mention something sad. In fact, I escaped, and there were 20 of them who escaped with me, and when we first stepped into the rain and fog forest, the images and feelings at that time are still vivid in our minds, as if they were yesterday. Looking into the eyes of the half-ape, it seemed as if he had fallen into deep memories, but soon he regained his composure and continued: When we escaped from Tianxing and came to the forest, the excitement was almost tearful. But later, I realized that escaping did not mean that we were free, because we soon got lost, scurrying around in the forest, like headless flies, unable to find the junction, and felt that every place was the same. In the end, I was separated from them, and I guess they were all separated like me, and more than ten years have passed, and the twenty half-ape horses we escaped together have not met again, but I think they must all be alive. When he said this, Luo Shiyi Lang noticed the tightness in his eyes, which was full of confidence. This is a gaze that can only be emanated by a strong person, and Luo Shiyi Lang can feel it.
Now, Meng Li could feel the mystery and horror of the Rain and Mist Forest even more, and inadvertently thought of the elder of the Rain Clan, how strong is this person's spiritual power to do! At this moment, the swordsmanship he learned was simply not worth mentioning, and compared to those predecessors, he really didn't even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder.
Suddenly, I felt so small, and we were all vulnerable in this world. Maybe it's just a joke.
I can't imagine that the origin of the half-ape horse turned out to be like this. Luo Shilang raised his head slightly and looked at the ceiling, lost in thought. It seems that there is more and more capital in this battle, and it is more and more certain to win this battle. The toilet bowl face can save us a lot of time to find nits, and the half-ape horse seems to have a lot of hatred for the Tianxing who created them, and if you throw these scattered beads up, you will become a magic bead in the hands of the Buddha, and you will conjure up an infinite amount of power.
The next morning, the sun filtered through the mist and cast dappled shadows on the frozen black soil. The temperature was still so low that everyone was reluctant to pull out their hands, or even expose even an inch of their skin to the air.
They slept in the warm cave of the half-ape horse last night, and Luo Shiyi Lang didn't sleep much all night, because he had been looking forward to the next day's confrontation with the half-ape horse, and from the tone and wording of the half-ape horse's speech, Luo Shiyi Lang seemed to be able to see the strength contained in this strange race, which was enough to make Luo Shiyi Lang lose sleep. Sure enough, it's a martial idiot!
In the early morning, before they woke up, Luo Shiyi gently woke up the sleeping half-ape horse.
The two of them walked out of the cave and kept walking towards the distance, looking for a place a little farther away, Luo Shiyilang's heart was itching, he was eager to know how strong the half-ape horse was, was it even more powerful than Lang Kai's soul beast bone disc?
