A special genetic sequence appeared in front of everyone!
Hearing Lao Nie's words, almost everyone's eyes widened!
At least half of the upper part of this skeleton is different from that of a normal human being?
How can this be?
You must know that when they discovered this bone, it was just an ordinary skeleton!
At most, it was just one missing arm, but in that mass grave, there were many people with broken arms and legs. How could it be different? There doesn’t seem to be anything unusual about this skeleton, right?
Old man Lu Changling hurriedly lowered his head to watch!
As archeology experts, they often encounter things like detecting the identity of tomb owners based on DNA sequences, so they know a little bit about genetic sequences.
But after a brief viewing, their pupils suddenly shrank!
Because they found the DNA sequence of this skeleton.
There seems to be something really different!
As we all know, DNA sequences are the most primitive genetic and structural information of living things. The answers to almost all characteristics and actions of all life forms on the earth can be found in different DNA sequences!
The composition of DNA sequences is different between different life forms, but the DNA sequences of the same race are all similar. Just like human DNA, it is composed of 23 pairs of chromosomes.
It includes 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosomes, represented by T (thymine), A (adenine), C (cytosine) and G (guanine).
A and T are connected by two hydrogen bonds, and G and C are connected by three hydrogen bonds. The arrangement of base pairs in DNA can only be A to T and G to C.
These DNA sequences are composed of each other, and the final base pairs are connected to each other, ultimately making up about 20,000 to 25,000 genes!
And the genome of the old woman in front of me
It seems that there are more than just around 20,000!
Old man Lu Changling gradually widened his eyes.
I didn't notice it when I didn't look carefully before, but now when I look carefully, I can see that the base pairs on this DNA gene sequence map seem to be far beyond the level of normal people!
Among them, the base connections between AT and GC are all densely packed and closely together!
At a glance, it is at least several times more than a normal person!
If the DNA base pairs of a normal person are distributed like the seeds in a watermelon.
The old woman's DNA base pairs were like grabbing a handful of sand and throwing it on a plate!
Densely packed, closely leaning together! !
"This is."
"what's the situation?"
Old man Lu Changling suddenly raised his head, his expression a little dull!
"Does this old woman have a lot of DNA sequences?"
"Lao Lu, you are not blind, you finally discovered it!"
The old man named Nie Weiguo spoke with some excitement. At this time, his original serious expression was tinged with fanaticism, and there was a strong excitement under his thick reading glasses!
"It's more than a little much!"
"The amount of DNA detected in this old woman's skeleton is ten times that of a normal person!"
"ten times?!"
After hearing this, the old man Lu Changling suddenly froze, looking down at the image in his hand almost in disbelief, his expression was shocked!
"You mean, there are 200,000 base pairs in this set of DNA sequence tests?!"
"That's right!!"
Nie Weiguo spoke excitedly, waving his hands in the air excitedly, and the sleepiness on his face had long since disappeared!
"Normal people have only about 20,000 to 25,000 base pair genes, but the number of base pair genes in this old woman's body, judging from the DNA test chart, is at least 200,000 pairs!!"
"Do you know what this means?!"
"This is almost ten times that of normal humans!"
"The longest genome discovered so far by humans is that of Kinugasa from Sakura Country. It has approximately 149 billion base pairs. It is the organism with the largest bases today, fifty times that of humans!"
"But in order to accommodate fifty times the capacity, Kinugasa has a full octaploid of 40 chromosomes!!"
"And the genetic test on this skeleton is still only 23 pairs like normal people!!"
Hearing this, old man Lu Changling was dumbfounded! !
"Ten times the base pairs, the same 23 pairs of chromosomes? How is this possible?!"
"I also think it's impossible! So after the first test, I came out with a frown on my face! I don't believe it all, but the facts are in front of me, and I can't help but question it!!"
Old man Nie Weiguo spoke excitedly.
"This is almost impossible. It has almost completely exceeded the limit of normal human beings!"
"There are ten times as many chromosomes as normal people, and nine times as many genomes as normal people. What on earth do they do?!"
The old man was pacing back and forth in the office excitedly!
"And it has actually maintained a complete sequence for thousands of years. It is like nails, nailed together tightly. There is no wavering at all! There is no damage!"
"This is a miracle in itself. The only answer may be hidden in this nine times more genome!"
"I have studied the human genome all my life, but I never imagined that something like this would happen today!"
"Are the skeletons you found really human?!"
On the opposite side, the old man, Lu Changling, Yan Zishan and others, who had almost fallen into a state of complete fanaticism and were completely red-eyed, were also almost completely stunned! !
Even if they are not in the same professional field, they gradually understand the excitement of old man Nie Weiguo!
Knowing the DNA sequence is one of the most complex scientific studies in the world!
Life is endlessly changing, and basically every DNA chromosome has countless functions from a macro perspective on human beings!
Basically every successful study of DNA sequences is enough to drive scientists crazy!
But now, there is an extra chromosome in the world with more than 200,000 base pairs! !
This will definitely drive all geneticists crazy!
If we can study and understand the function of these extra genomes, even if we only study one percent or one thousandth, it will definitely be one of the greatest discoveries in the world today! ! !
"No!"
“No research even required!”
Old man Nie Weiguo spoke with great excitement, almost completely red-eyed!
The old man's saliva flew everywhere, his eyes widened, and he slapped it on the table with a very excited tone!
“Just announce it!!”
"Perhaps it will be enough to turn the entire global genetic community upside down!!"
Looking at all this, Old Man Lu Changling and others were almost all dumbfounded. They were so shocked by this fact that they swallowed hard!
They looked at each other and saw the shock and surprise in each other's eyes!
how so?
I thought it was shocking enough that Lu Buwei died here, but I didn't expect that the skeleton next to him was even more shocking!
Ten times the DAN sequence group of ordinary people!
Unexpectedly, a casual mention of skeletons next to Lu Buwei revealed that they actually had ten times the chromosomes of normal people!
Looking at all this, Yan Zishan raised his hand and slapped himself!
A crisp sound rang in the laboratory, and Yan Zishan's face instantly swelled up, but no one present laughed at him!
Because this is so incredible!
This is why in Nie Weiguo's laboratory, if someone elsewhere told them that a person has ten times the normal number of base pairs, and all of them are accommodated in 23 pairs of chromosomes, they would definitely think that this person is crazy!
but now! !
Everything just appeared in front of people! !
Looking down at the DNA sequence detection chart in their hands, Lu Changling and others were almost all dumbfounded!
Ten times as many chromosomes as normal people!
It has not been damaged for more than two thousand years!
What on earth is going on!
In fact, the owner of this skeleton, the old woman, is one of the great spiritual seas under Lu Buwei!
When this old woman appeared at the Xian Qin banquet with Master Yun, she tried to use blood escape to escape, but was killed. The missing arm on the skeleton was proof that she used blood sacrifice!
A Qi Refiner in the Linghai Realm has already undergone various changes in his body. His body has surpassed that of ordinary people, and it is not surprising that his DNA sequence has changed.
But many scholars present did not know all this!
They just looked at all this with shocked expressions, almost completely dumbfounded!
This is just a skeleton. If such a living creature really existed, it would definitely be enough to make all geneticists around the world crazy about it!
And such a mysterious old woman actually died here, in a mass grave!
What exactly happened in the original Great Qin Empire?
Although the number of chromosomes cannot mean anything, such a mysterious figure does not need to be imagined to know that it is absolutely extraordinary!
And just when almost everyone was a little sluggish and didn't know how to face all this.
After Yan Zishan died, the female doctor who first discovered that the DNA sequence test had been completed suddenly spoke again, her tone trembling.
"Wait a minute, Professor Lu, have you noticed that this skeleton is a little special compared to other skeletons?"
"Perhaps you haven't noticed that this special thing is not easy to detect, but my family has been making bone art since I was a child, so I have a very keen sense of bones. I took off the powder used to detect the bones. When the bones were powdered, I clearly felt something was wrong - when the bones were powdered, it felt like stroking jade!"
"Although it's a bit inappropriate to say this, the old woman's skeleton is obviously different from other skeletons when touched!"
The girl swallowed and spoke cautiously: "And if I feel correctly, in this mass grave, I have touched several other skeletons that feel similar to these bones!"
"?!"
After hearing the girl's words, everyone's eyes widened almost instantly!
Especially old man Nie Weiguo, his eyes instantly turned red! ! !
"There are many more similar ones?!"
He quickly ran up to the woman, panted heavily, and said excitedly: "Are you sure? This is no joke!!"
Facing the old man with red eyes, the woman swallowed with some fear. After closing her eyes and struggling for a while, she opened her eyes and nodded through gritted teeth!
"Although I only scratched it a few times, I definitely didn't feel wrong!"
"That bone must be different from the others!"
"It's very similar to this one!!!"
After hearing this, everyone's breathing suddenly became rapid!
There are others? !
Especially old man Nie Weiguo, he jumped up impatiently!
Just one body is already a bit incredible!
And there are several other skeletons like this old woman's? !
What's happening here!
What exactly happened in the Qin Kingdom back then!
Even many archaeologists are excited!
"quick!"
"Go back quickly!"
"We must bring all these bones back!!"
"There may be a huge secret hidden in these bones. I have a hunch that it may be enough to subvert the entire human genetic research!!"
"We must conduct more in-depth research!"
"If we can figure out the function of these new DNA chromosomes, let alone one percent, even if it is one thousandth, it will be a huge improvement for us in China!"
Facing the anxious old man Nie Weiguo, old man Lu Changling also understood the importance of this matter!
They stood up without saying a word, covered themselves with stars and wore the moon, and ran directly towards the valley at the foot of Mount Taihua!
The number of DNA base pairs is ten times that of normal people. It is so abnormal. There must be some unknown weirdness in this skeleton! !
"I remember that Yanjing has the latest genetic research team. Last year, the Academy of Sciences just made a new breakthrough in human DNA research and developed the latest generation of gene sequencer!" Yan Zishan suddenly said.
"I remember it too! Let's go to Yanjing together!" Old man Nie Weiguo said excitedly: "Let's borrow these machines together. We need to invite the top genetic experts in the country. We must study together and set up a research project team. !”
Everyone nodded and took action quickly!
On this side, the old man Lu Changling and other troops split into two groups, quickly going to Taihua to collect the skeletons, and going to Yanjing to find top genetic experts, eager to understand the mystery of the skeletons.
The weasel, which had been wandering outside the caves in the valley for a long time, finally made up its mind and sneaked into the huge cave.
Unlike many people who do not have the aura of heaven and earth, this huge mass grave is far more terrifying than imagined.
Song Qing, Yan Zishan and others were just afraid of the number of bones, but they didn't know that there was an extremely strong evil aura in this mass grave.
These evil spirits were suppressed by the vast stone tablet in the center, but even so, in the eyes of the weasel, it was still as terrifying as Shura Hell.
But in the end, it couldn't resist the temptation, and came to the cave with fear, found a corner closest to the edge, and bowed tremblingly.
"Your Excellency, King Qin, is here."
"The little demon temporarily borrows precious land"
"Absorb some spiritual energy from heaven and earth for cultivation."
"If you offend me, please don't blame me."
"With just a little reminder, the little demon will leave immediately without any delay."
After shivering and chanting and kowtowing for a long time, the weasel began to swallow the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him in this corner.
There is no doubt that as Ying Zheng's most consumed spectacle ruins at present, although the ruins in the Taihua Mountains are filled with evil spirits, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is definitely the richest.
With just one breath, the mighty spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured into the weasel's body from all directions.
The five-color light spots that no one could see continued to merge into his limbs and bones like a tide. He could clearly feel that his cultivation was growing rapidly.
"Kakaka!"
"It's really too rich. After absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth here, I can almost go and ask for the title, right?"
Watching the progress of his cultivation, Weasel looked excited.
“When the time comes, I don’t know if I can truly transform into a human body as recorded in the book.”
"If possible, we must first build a temple for the King of Qin, and it must be made of gold."
Thinking with joy, Weasel kept running the formula of Chang Ning Jue, practicing with all his strength, and gradually fell into his own world of cultivation under the mighty spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
And while the Weasel was training with all its strength and seriously improving its strength, the huge stone tablet not far away from it suddenly flickered without any warning.
Then waves of heaven and earth spiritual energy became more and more powerful.
Gradually it spread from this stone tablet.
Years go by and time flies.
The broken bones have lost their fluorescence and glaze under the polish of time, leaving only the immortal roots still there.
People of later generations extracted traces of unknown existence from the remaining bones. They were shocked and extremely excited at the same time.
Along with their emotional fluctuations and changes, there was an invisible wave that spanned the ages and gradually came to that era when the world had not yet changed.
