Jiang Shan didn't know how long she had slept. Her limbs were as heavy as lead, and something vaguely poured into her mouth, like the rain of life, flowing continuously, awakening her consciousness.
When she finally had the strength to open her eyes, she saw Zhao Ying squatting in front of her, holding a bottle of mineral water in her hand and feeding her.
Seeing Jiang Shan open his eyes, Zhao Ying looked happy: "Are you finally awake?"
Jiang Shan knew that she must have slept for more than ten minutes, and the surroundings were still dark. Her eyes slowly focused on Zhao Ying's face: "Did I pass out for a long time?"
Jiang Shan remembered that he had slept for three days and three nights before.
Zhao Ying said: "You are too tired, it's all my fault, if not..."
If she hadn't been "parasitized" and then encountered an accident while searching the employee area, Jiang Shan would certainly not have been consumed like this.
Jiang Shan moved his body and felt that his limbs were still weak, but he was obviously much better than before. On the other hand, Zhao Ying's face seemed to be getting worse.
Zhao Ying is now wearing protective clothing. Even though she found water, she couldn't drink it. You can imagine how much Zhao Ying is suffering now.
Jiang Shan helped Zhao Ying stand up. She felt that the burnt smell in the air seemed to have dissipated a lot, and she seemed to smell some other smells.
"I may have thought of some clues about the cockroach monster just now." Zhao Ying said, "The cockroach is a very ancient insect. If we talk about its origin, it first appeared in the Carboniferous period 350 million years ago, before the appearance of dinosaurs. Be early. If the monster is really a mutated cockroach, maybe it can be explained."
This thing has such a strong ability to last, and it can be said to be one of the oldest creatures on earth.
Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, mass extinctions. None of them affected the species.
When erosion comes, the cockroaches also mutate.
If this assumption is true, how many cockroaches are there in all the dark corners of life?
This is the reason why Zhao Ying became depressed and suffered a major blow after deducing it just now.
Jiang Shan's temples were still a little sore at this moment, but after listening to Zhao Ying's words, she felt something was wrong, "The older and longer it lasts, it should indicate the speed of erosion." If she understood Wei Yuan's theory If you are right, there should be no inevitable connection between antiquity and mutation.
Ancient objects can slow down and resist erosion. For example, the outer walls of libraries and church bases, but eventually these places will be slowly eroded, it is just a matter of time.
"I don't think we need to scare ourselves first," Jiang Shan said.
People are often scared to death by themselves sometimes.
Zhao Ying forced a smile when she heard this: "But other than that, I really can't find any other more reasonable explanation."
Jiang Shan smelled the smell in the air. It was covered by the burnt smell just now, but now the rotten smell was stronger again. Her heart moved.
"Rotten places tend to breed cockroaches, so the smell here is simply a paradise for cockroaches."
There's a rotten, fleshy smell everywhere, as tempting as the fruits of Eden.
"Furthermore, cockroaches can only live in the dark, which means this creature cannot survive openly in the sun. In our environment, the sun is available 12 hours a day." Mutated cockroaches? Unless there is a mass extinction of the universe and the sun goes out, I'm afraid there won't be the conditions for mutation.
As long as you put the cockroach under the hot sun, it will only take about a minute, and the cockroach will basically stop moving.
Even if you pick up the cockroach for a minute, you will see that the cockroach's legs may still move once or twice, but the cockroach is already dead.
Two minutes later, the cockroach was completely dead, unable to move, let alone resurrect. Don't ask why Jiang Shan knew so clearly. There were no toys for the children in the orphanage. There were often vicious little perverts who would catch mice and cockroaches and put them in glass bottles to compete with each other to see whose bottle would burn up first.
How many coincidental factors must have gathered for this cockroach locked in the cabinet to become like this? At least these factors do not exist outside the aquarium for the time being.
Zhao Ying's originally melancholy expression changed, and her eyes flashed a few times, "Ashan, what you said..." It makes sense.
Jiang Shan covered his head: "Let's get over this topic. I feel like vomiting when I hear cockroaches."
…
Listening to the sound of water flowing around them, if they ignored the situation in front of them, Wei Yuan and the others could taste the tranquility of the years.
"A sneeze!" Zhang Zheng sneezed spectacularly.
He had an unknown premonition. Although the situation in front of him had always been bad, he felt particularly bad now.
"Old Wei, you really shouldn't let Zhao Ying and Jiang Shan act separately. The worst is that now we all have to die together, not alone."
Gao Wenwu asked Wei Yuan: "What is the success rate of Zhao Ying's team?"
Wei Yuan said: "One hundred or zero."
Gao Wenwu was suspicious: "There is no middle value?"
Wei Yuan shook his head.
Gao Wenwu thought for a moment, looked at Wei Yuan and said, "Then it's almost time for us to take action."
Wei Yuan's meaning was quite clear. With Jiang Shan here, either she saved Zhao Ying and the two of them acted together. Either the rescue of Zhao Ying fails, and Jiang Shan is in danger.
After all, they have not yet touched the depth and alienation of these marine creatures.
Wei Yuan said: "If we start now, our probability may be zero."
It was impossible to escape, and it was impossible to hurt "anyone".
Didn't you notice that as far as they could see, there was only one "person", a person in the fish tank?
Even if they died together, there would only be four of their bodies lying here.
"The creatures here should have evolved a way of brainwave communication. Through human brain interaction, it is like a base station. Countless messages can be transmitted through this base station." This human being raised in a fish tank is just an interactive base station. role.
This can once again confirm - "we". Not "I".
From beginning to end, they never came into contact with the "intelligent creatures" behind them.
What was before them was an empty human body. The place of "origin" - Taunt Laman.
Zhang Zheng said: "Don't lie to me, I know this question. Only humans have brain waves." Moreover, humans have not yet developed a way to communicate using brain waves.
Brain waves are closely related to the nervous system. Many animals have not even evolved a nervous system. Even if some animals have so-called brain waves, the frequency of the brain waves is very different from that of humans.
Just like how can the mobile phone band and the satellite band be the same? Are ABC (the world's first computer) and the holographic AI handheld computer the same?
"No," Gao Wenwu suddenly said, "The brain waves of mammals and humans... overlap to some extent."
Because humans are mammals too.
No matter how we stand at the pinnacle of evolution, we cannot get rid of this origin.
The fourth and fifth areas of the Starry Sky Aquarium happen to be full of large mammal marine creatures. Whales, dolphins. Octopus, octopus is not a mammal, but it has nine brains.
"That man has diving equipment on him." Gao Wenwu looked at the fish tank with cold eyes. In the previous video on his mobile phone, he could only see a person submerged in the fish tank. He did not expect that this person was actually wearing a breathing mask.
Sure enough, everything was just teasing them.
"Remove his breathing apparatus, at least enough for one of us to get out of here."
Even if this group of creatures repeats their old tricks and floods the mountains, they will not be drowned even if they have equipment.
Wei Yuan smiled and nodded: "That's one way. But I think there should be electricity around the fish tank. It will be triggered when outsiders get close to a certain distance. It shouldn't give us a chance to snatch diving equipment."
Gao Wenwu's thinking has the temperament of a warrior. He is willing to break even when he is ready, and he can indeed fight for a glimmer of hope in extreme situations.
"Your brain must be delicious." The "person" spoke again, not knowing which creature he was talking about now.
Wei Yuan now seemed to have become a delicious meal that was criticized.
Zhang Zheng suddenly shouted without warning. "ah!"
Water vapor began to appear all around. Just now Zhang Zheng was unprepared and was touched by the water vapor on his arm. Even through the protective clothing, he felt as if he was burned.
The white mist spraying from all directions, coupled with the continuous light and shadow, really looks a bit like a fairyland.
However, the temperature around this wonderland is constantly rising, and the "clouds" sprayed out are obviously ultra-high temperature water vapor. It's like touching a boiling pot.
Gao Wenwu looked around warily: "We didn't take action, but they started?"
The steam was not only very hot, but also blocked their sight. In the end, they couldn't even see the fish tank opposite.
"Can't wait to...eat your brains."
