Although their investigation team seems to be only six people, there are actually a lot of resources at their disposal, and there are many people who are supporting them.

The news of the big bird was obtained by Ye Chong, who was in charge of logistics and information support, from his colleagues.

This news was actually obtained from the Internet, and some tourists photographed a "big bird" in the mountains and forests not far from the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area this morning, and then uploaded it to social platforms.

The relevant information collection mechanism of the secret department of "Shenxing Technology", after analyzing the location, time, and content of the photo shooting, sent it to Ye Chong and them.

The photo was actually very blurry, only vaguely photographed a big bird about to turn over the mountain, but there are more detailed language descriptions on social platforms to help understand. If you just look at the photos, you won't see anything shocking or unusual. After all, far away, the visual impact of the big bird in size can't be shown.

But after Fang Pingfang, Ye Chong and others saw this picture, they quickly judged that the wingspan of the "big bird" on the photo should be more than 3 meters through the comparison reference next to it, which is indeed huge.

With a wingspan of more than 3 meters, many people may think it's nothing at first glance. After all, there are many birds with a wingspan of nearly two meters in the order Gooseformes and Falconiformes, and under the order Gregoriformes and Albatrosses, there are many large birds with a wingspan of more than 3 meters at every turn, such as the wandering albatross, with an average wingspan of more than three meters, and the largest is 3.7 meters.

But this is not the seaside, and normally the birds that inhabit and breed in the Wushu Mountain area will not be that large. Since "Mr. Liang" temporarily formed their team to investigate this matter, the big bird is naturally the most "conspicuous" target that needs to be investigated.

On the way to the location where the tourists photographed the big bird, Miqiao praised Zhou Rui: "It's really amazing that you can actually notice the situation of ants!" At least she didn't think about it at all.

Zhou Rui said a little embarrassed: "I usually raise ants myself, so no matter where I go, I will pay special attention to the ants in that place." ”

In fact, normally speaking, he would not have noticed the situation of Wu Shushan ants, after all, it is winter, and ants are almost not active outside. It was also because he saw the big worker ant of the ant species he had been keeping that he felt a little strange, so he went to the bottom of it. But now that he thinks about it, he has a big question, that is, where did the ant he saw go, and he even has a doubt that he did not see the ant at all. Otherwise, given where the ant was at the time, he couldn't have found it.

Because of this, he didn't tell Fang Pingfang, Mi Qiao and others about seeing the big worker ant.

"There have been some changes in the ecological estimation of Wushu Mountain, which has led to the migration of ant populations. However, we have only examined a small part of the area, so we can't make a rash judgment, and we need to come back and do a more comprehensive investigation. The appearance of that big bird should also be due to the changes in the environment of Wushu Mountain, which is likely to cause some mutations, so that it will have such a large size. Fang Pingfang said while thinking.

Micho pondered for a moment and suggested, "I think it would be more beneficial for us to investigate the 'big bird' first and have a living sample first." ”

In fact, after she entered the secret department of "Shenxing Technology", she soon discovered that most of the people in the secret department actually did not know the existence of "blood-eating creatures", and a few people, such as Fang Pingfang and Zhou Rui, only knew that what they were investigating and studying were some events or creatures with obvious abnormalities.

Therefore, even if Fang Pingfang, Zhou Rui, Li Shiyu and others are not the first field investigation mission, their way of thinking is still relatively conservative, and they consider more angles, directions and possibilities. Unlike her, as soon as she heard Ye Chong talk about the "big bird" and "small bird" last night, she immediately preset her position and regarded the creatures that appeared as "blood-eating creatures".

She felt that if the creature that caused the tourist to fall off the cliff was not a "blood-eating creature", "Mr. Liang" would not temporarily transfer her, who was studying in Qicheng City, to come over and lead the team.

Hearing her words, Fang Pingfang looked over and asked thoughtfully, "When you came, did 'Mr. Liang' have any explanation?"

It was already a well-known fact that this short-haired girl was a close confidant of "Mr. Liang", and Fang Pingfang also deduced from the previous conversation that this girl should know a lot of information that she did not know, at least for a deeper or more comprehensive understanding of the things they were investigating, which may have been told to her by "Mr. Liang".

"Not really, I'm just coming up with a little bit of my own ideas, and the final decision is up to you. Micho said.

She didn't know why "Mr. Liang" didn't let core researchers and investigators like Fang Pingfang know about the situation of "blood-eating creatures", and didn't let them know what they were investigating and pursuing, but she knew that "Mr. Liang" must have his intentions in doing this, maybe Dr. Fang and Researcher Zhou could find more information from different angles, such as the cause of the mutation of "blood-eating creatures", so she couldn't say her thoughts too bluntly.

Fang Pingfang pondered for a while and said, "Then let's take a look at the place where the 'giant bird of prey' appeared first, and then make plans." ”

Whether it was on the way to Jianzhou City before, in the villa last night, or in the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area today, when discussing giant birds of prey, weird birds, and ants, Fang Pingfang's mind would occasionally pop up pictures related to the rabbit wood carving, the cave in the Qinling Mountains, and the anomalies in the "No. 9 Laboratory".

Just like Mi Qiao felt that "Mr. Liang" would let her join the investigation team to come to Wushu Mountain, there must be a possibility of "blood-eating creatures", Fang Pingfang also thought that "Mr. Liang" would let her take this investigation team, it should be something that happened here, and the rabbit wood carving and the creatures in the Qinling Mountains no man's land.

"Dr. Fang, if you want to find that 'big bird', do you want to apply for a drone team?" asked Li Shiyu.

"Let's get back to it. Fang Pingfang said.

Under normal circumstances, the personnel and equipment they entered the Qinling Mountains no man's land last time were the regular equipment, and they were the configuration of the official investigation team.

And the six of them, said to be the investigators who collected and confirmed the information in the early stage, their identities are a little too heavy. It's a formal investigation team, and the overall configuration and technical support are a little too casual. I feel that their team is "Mr. Liang" who suddenly slapped his head and saved it.

......

Today, throughout the day, Xiang Kun and a group of friends have been playing in the scenic spot, visiting various well-known scenic spots, and lunch is also under the leadership of You Meng, driving for an extra 30 minutes to eat in a nearby village.

It wasn't until about five o'clock in the afternoon that they returned to Copperstone.

"Old Ji, how much does Brother Chu give you a month now?I will come to Tongshi Town to develop, how about you come over and help me drive?" Before saying goodbye to Ji Hang and Xu Kai, Xiang Kun asked jokingly.

Although these two people obviously have other tasks as drivers, I have to say that these two people are quite competent as drivers, at least they drive very steadily, basically there are few sudden braking and rapid acceleration, and the prediction on the road is very good, so that they can sit very comfortably. And when dealing with some things, whether it is words or deeds, they are also well-behaved and decent.

"I'm sorry Mr. Xiang, Mr. Chu is very good to me, and I am cooperating with Mr. Chu now, if you go back to the province to develop in the future, maybe we can have other opportunities for cooperation." Before parting, Ji Hang also directly told his true situation in a more tactful and obscure way, so as to avoid meeting again in the future, so that Xiang Kun would be suspicious or unhappy knowing that he was not the driver hired by Chu Xiuwen.

Today was their last day in Tongshi Town, and the meal in the evening was still the same as when they came on the first day, cooked by Xiang Kun and You Meng, still in the "You Long Hotel".

The ingredients needed have been prepared in the morning, and you can just use them directly.

Because of some inspiration from chatting with Lao Xia this morning, Xiang Kun made some temporary adjustments to this meal in the evening, he did not make it according to the proportion for most people's tastes, but all the dishes only revolved around Xia Libing's taste.

This kind of adjustment, basically no one can notice it, even if it is the same chef, You Meng, who is busy in the kitchen under Xiang Kun's command, only thinks that Xiang Kun's dishes tonight are a little different in taste and flavor, and he may want to try different production techniques and types, after all, most of the ingredients tonight are different from when he first arrived in Tongshi Town on the night of the 17th, and there is not a single rabbit meat.

Even Yang Zhen'er and Tang Baona, who were familiar with Xia Libing, only felt that the crispy pork knuckle was made for Lao Xia when they saw the dishes being served.

Although all the dishes are adjusted for the taste of Lao Xia, it is not that they are not delicious for others, and the overall is still very delicious, and for some people, it may be much better than the first night.

The only thing that could be detected was probably Xia Libing.

During the meal, Xiang Kun's attention was all on Xia Libing, although the black circle graffiti and lyrics were all in her backpack and were placed in the hotel room, and it was impossible to sense them in real time through the two "emotional injection" items. But at this distance, through direct various sensory information, he can also judge Xia Libing's emotional changes.

As she ate a mouthful of food into her mouth, Xia Libing's eyes narrowed slightly, Xiang Kun could be very sure that she did have a relatively obvious emotional change, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or satisfied, or other emotions.

In fact, when he had eaten with Xia Libing many times before, he had already noticed this slight change in Lao Xia's mood, but he didn't think there was anything strange at those times, because Yang Zhen'er, Tang Baona and others who ate together had a much greater change in mood, and Lao Xia was still the same as her, very calm.

But then he realized that those emotional changes during the meal were actually not ordinary for Xia Libing.

You must know that whether Xia Libing played Texas Hold'em with a straight flush, fought the landlord with a hand of fried, or had a physical altercation when encountering human traffickers, his physical reaction and emotions did not change so much.

This morning, Xia Libing told him that he had only had dreams related to eating, which made it even more illustrative - eating is an emotional "switch" that can be touched for Lao Xia.

And at the dinner table, when eating the dishes that were specially adjusted and cooked for her tastes and preferences, Xia Libing did give Xiang Kun a clear emotional change that could be distinguished.

After Xiang Kun prepared to go back, before this blood drinking period, he made a pair of chopsticks and sent them to Xia Libing.

As for the type of emotional injection of chopsticks, he will choose the emotions of anticipation and enjoyment that are "transformed" from the little chubby girl, and then use this to try to mobilize and trigger Xia Libing's dreams.

Once it can successfully trigger the dream, enter her dream, see what she sees, and feel what she feels, it should help Xiang Kun understand what the extremely rational and indifferent feeling that he felt through Lao Xia before was going on.

After dinner, Tang Baona originally suggested playing Werewolf Kill, Zhang Qian wanted to continue the 5V5 Glory of Kings, but Xiang Kun said that Liu Caifu had something to find him and needed to go out. Glory of Kings naturally can't play, although Liang Yulong can make up for Xiang Kun's shortcomings, but without Xiang Kun's words, You Meng is not at all sure that he will take four novices to fight Zhang Qian, so the ten of them will stay to play werewolf killing.

Xiang Kun said that Liu Caifu was looking for him, naturally it was just an excuse, and his main purpose was to explore the place where the "big bird" appeared before leaving Tongshi Town.

However, before going to Wushushan, he still met with Liu Caifu in a tea shop in the town, and Director Liu really wanted to meet him and talk about the specific cooperation plan they had talked about in Chongyun Village before.

Xiang Kun just briefly talked to him about the situation, and asked him to wait directly to see the effect, that is, there is no need to worry about the rest, as for the development of Chongyun Village, he has a follow-up investment plan.

At ten o'clock, Xiang Kun said goodbye to Liu Caifu, drove out of Tongshi Town, and headed for Wushu Mountain.

When Mi Qiao and Fang Pingfang learned from Ye Chong about the location of the "Big Bird" being photographed, Xiang Kun, who had been listening to their conversation, naturally knew the location.

In Xiang Kun's speculation, the "mutant bird" should be the "mutant ant" that was going to hunt Wu Shushan, and if it had been successfully hunted, according to normal understanding, it should leave this area with a lot of human activity after a short period of sleep and mutation.

But it didn't leave, and two days later it reappeared in the human eye, and was photographed. According to Xiang Kun's judgment, it probably didn't succeed, the "mutant ant" successfully escaped, and it didn't give up, and was still searching everywhere.

Like the night before, Xiang Kun didn't drive the car directly to the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area, it was still far away, so he found a place to park and then walked in.

The area where the tourists who happened to encounter the big bird and took the photo today is still some distance away from the main peak of Wushu Mountain, where the accident occurred on the 18th.

After a quick shuttle in the forest, Xiang Kun found an anomaly before he arrived.

In the infrared thermal imaging visual mode, an object composed of blue dots is standing quietly among the trees in the distant mountain forest.

There was no doubt that it was a mutated creature.

Xiang Kun didn't immediately come closer, because he had found something else.
