The landlord did not doubt Xiang Kun's words, and his impression of Xiang Kun has always been very good.

Xiang Kun, who has been his tenant for many years, has never been late for rent, and has never let other tenants complain, and even in July last year, another couple of tenants was attacked with a knife, or Xiang Kun "Divine Soldiers Descended from the Sky" to kick the murderer and save the life of the little couple.

In his opinion, Xiang Kun is a person with a sense of justice and a very hard worker - just look at the current bald head, you can know a thing or two, so hard, no wonder you can buy a house.

So when Xiang Kun said that he was responsible for introducing the house to his friends, the landlord was also very relieved, and just left the key to him and let them leave it in the grocery store opposite when they left.

Now this house looks different from when Xiang Kun lived, after the previous tenant moved out, the landlord hired someone to clean and clean it, so it looks quite clean.

Xiang Kun told Lao Xia what kind of layout and what things he had when he lived here. Then he described in detail how he entered the door, how he took off his shoes, and how he lay down on the bed and slept in his clothes after he came back drunk that night.

Based on the traces in the room after waking up, it is speculated that when he fell asleep, the number of times he vomited, and the posture of vomiting.

There is also information about other conditions in the room after waking up, including the status of doors and windows.

He himself had recounted these situations many times, and it was almost certain that no one else had entered the room during the drunken slumber, at least from the traces he could see at the time.

He also once wondered if he was bitten by some insect or something, so he didn't necessarily need to open the door or window. However, through some of his later experiments and experience in dealing with multiple "mutant creatures", he obtained some memories of other "mutant creatures" to analyze, and if he was bitten by other "mutant creatures", he should not be able to be transformed into "mutant creatures".

Like some "vampire"-related film and television entertainment works, it will not happen that ordinary people become "vampires" after being bitten by "vampires".

Xia Libing listened to Xiang Kun's memories of the situation at that time, opened the window, looked left and right, and then turned around and asked: "Describe the degree of pain and discomfort when you lost your job?" ”

Xiang Kun thought for a while and said: "It's a bit painful and uncomfortable, but in fact, it's more of a grievance and unwillingness, if it's painful, level 4 is less than level 5, and the idea of suicide is not at all." ”

"Have you ever felt something similar before?" Xia Libing asked again.

"If it's uncomfortable...... It's still been there.,After chasing girls in the past and being rejected.,It's also very uncomfortable.、Aggrieved.,There should probably be level 4.。 Xiang Kun recalled.

Xia Libing didn't ask the details of how to chase the girl and how she was rejected, but asked, "Did you drink at that time?"

"No, I had to catch up with my graduation thesis at that time, and I didn't have that time. But that night, Zicheng moved a box of Coke, and the two of us drank a total of fourteen cans, pretending to use alcohol to kill our sorrows...... That level of discomfort is no worse than drinking...... Xiang Kun couldn't help laughing, "Hey? It seems to be a bit far, do you think it has something to do with drinking?" I think this possibility is very low. ”

Xia Libing continued to ask: "On the night of July 11, after you drank, what changes did you have in your mood?"

Xiang Kun thought about it for a while and said: "When I first started drinking, my mood didn't change, I was just thinking nonsense, thinking that if I hadn't gone to that company at the beginning, if I had changed jobs two years earlier, if I had realized that there was a problem with the company's development earlier, and if I had helped the company solve the problem, would the result be different." But after drinking three cans, I can't do it, dizzy, want to vomit, what is the pain, discomfort, unwillingness, and grievance of unemployment, I can't take care of it, I just want to go home and sleep...... In this sense, it was really successful in 'drinking to relieve sorrows', right? Although I already regretted drinking at that time......"

Speaking of this, Xiang Kun also asked, "Lao Xia, have you never drunk alcohol?"

In my impression, I really haven't seen Lao Xia drinking, I went to Tongshi Town a few years ago, and at Liu Caifu's house, except for him and Zicheng who wanted to drive, most of the other people drank some fruit wine, but Lao Xia still didn't drink a drop of wine and didn't drink it.

Xia Libing said: "I drank it once, it was not delicious, it would reduce the sensitivity of the taste buds, affect the taste of food, reduce reaction, and affect thinking. ”

Xiang Kun synthesized the questions that Lao Xia had asked before, and guessed: "Are you suspecting that my mutation may be related to extreme changes in mood?" Indeed, on July 11, the biggest change for Xiang Kun himself, in addition to being drunk, was the violent fluctuation of emotions.

Xia Libing said: "According to your previous hypothetical theories, some of the abilities you have shown, and some of the phenomena we have observed, all show that your brain activity, whether it is emotional changes or subjective consciousness drives, can directly affect the surrounding environment to a certain extent. This particular substance, which can be directly driven by your brain activity, should also be the reason why you are able to establish a 'supersensory connection' and 'emotional injection' connection with matter, the reason why you can access the 'sixth sense', and it should also be closely related to the reason for your mutation. Since this special substance can be directly affected by brain activity, could it be that one of the triggers for your mutation is the abnormal brain activity caused by drastic changes in mood?"

Xiang Kun nodded: "It's a good conjecture, in fact, I have also speculated in this regard." As he spoke, he walked over to help Lao Xia close the window, he heard that the tenants downstairs had returned, and he didn't want his voice to talk to Lao Xia to be heard, and then continued: "Do you remember what I told you before about my experience in the Qinling Mountains?"

Xia Libing said, "That spider?"

"Yes, the spider. Xiang Kun said: "I got some memory fragments of the mutant spider, those sensory memories are very different from human memories, but I still got a lot of information from it, some of which let me know that it has also devoured other 'mutant creatures', and that 'mutant creature' is a plant." ”

Xia Libing understood, nodded and said, "I know, it seems that emotional changes should not be necessary for mutation to occur." ”

Indeed, if a plant can also become a "mutated creature," then how could it have a "emotional" change before it "mutated"?

Xiang Kun said: "The influence of the changes in consciousness and emotions on the surrounding environment that I have shown should be the special manifestation of that special substance in me, and the result of my guided mutation evolution." Judging from the other 'mutant creatures' I have come into contact with, they do not have this ability, including Guo Tianxiang, who is also a human. ”

After leaving Xiang Kun's previous rented house, Xiang Kun took Xia Libing to the lake where he encountered the "giant owl" and walked around, describing in detail the process of discovering the "giant owl" and the first "hand-to-hand encounter".

Then Xiang Kun took Xia Libing to the hill where he killed the "giant owl", and accurately found the place where he drank blood and slept after killing the "giant owl", and told Xia Libing about the information he got from the memory of the giant owl, as well as the experience and discovery of the owl's habitat later.

When I got home, it was already past one o'clock in the morning.

Xiang Kun showed Xia Libing the surveillance video outside the food stall and the door of the convenience store outside the rented house after he found and saved it before, so that Xia Libing had a clearer visual impression of his description.

In addition, Xiang Kun also recorded various data and images he made from the beginning of the mutation, as well as the "vampire mutation model" he asked Alice to make to show Xia Libing.

Xia Libing looked at various data and built a table by himself.

To study the cause of Xiang Kun's mutation, the most direct way should actually be to ask Xiang Kun to do a gene sequencing first, and then see what mutations have occurred in the body and whether it is infected with any pathogens. If it is confirmed that the variant is due to infection, the relevant epidemiological investigation is done.

However, on the one hand, there is no reliable place to do sequencing for the time being, and on the other hand, Xia Libing believes that for the current Xiang Kun, genetic sequencing is likely not to get useful results—or it will not help them determine the cause of the mutation. If Xiang Kun had just "woken up" on July 14 last year, he would have done sequencing, and he might have been able to get more useful information. But now, after so many rounds of mutation and evolution, Xiang Kun must be very different from ordinary humans at the root. And she doesn't think that these changes in Xiang Kun can be caused by microorganisms and pathogens in any traditional sense.

Fortunately, Xiang Kun is not the "only" sample, he has been in contact with many "mutant creatures" before, and even obtained some of them, and these "sample" information can help Xia Libing find the hidden laws and commonalities.

Xiang Kun also provided all kinds of information he knew to Lao Xia without reservation, just like when he entered this information into the computer and asked Alice to build the "vampire mutation model".

At present, there are nine "mutant creatures" that Xiang Kun knows and has "perceived" at least through various sensory methods:

"Giant Owl", Guo Tianxiang, "Mutant Spider", "Mutant Big Bird", "Mutant Ant", and "Shenxing Technology" took the "Unknown Mutant Creature" of the rabbit wood carving, and the three "mutant creatures" around the "Unknown Mutant Creature".

In addition, there are two "mutant creatures" that he has not "perceived" in any way, but knows through various channels, one is a mutant plant that was devoured by the "mutant spider", and the other is the "long-horned wolf" that his old classmate Xie Jun said and was once hit by their convoy.

Among them, "Giant Owl", "Mutant Spider" and Guo Tianxiang are the ones that Xiang Kun knows the most and obtains the most information, after all, he has some of their memory fragments.

Xia Libing didn't go to bed until after she yawned repeatedly at three o'clock in the middle of the night, and asked Xiang Kun to help her enter the dream again, and to pull the little chubby girl into her dreams - this is what she promised the little chubby girl at noon today.

But this time the dream ended a little quickly, and not long after Xiang Kun pulled the little chubby girl into Lao Xia's dream, the dream collapsed.

Because the little chubby girl was woken up at once......
