"You mean the snake escaped?"
"Not running away, but leaving amicably."
"Why do you say that? Is there a difference?"
Hearing what his daughter Ye Xianqian said, Professor Ye Rongguang felt regretful. He should have followed Wang Ke to the rubber factory if he had known earlier. So he stopped eating and immediately urged Wang Ke and Ye Xianxian to take them back to the donkey farm. He wanted to see for himself the hole where the snake escaped.
As a result, Dong Pianfang, Dr. Chen and Professor Wen all followed.
"Hey, that's the hole." Ye pointed to the pillar of the donkey shed.
It's more accurate to say it's a hole than a gap. Ye Rongguang squatted down, found a piece of tree stick and poked it in, but it wasn't deep. It was getting late, and Wang Ke immediately ran back to the room to get a flashlight.
But when he looked inside, Ye Rongguang became a little angry. "Did you make a mistake? This is a hole, and there is no way down below."
"Don't worry, I'll find a shovel."
Dong Pianfang went to get another shovel. When he got it, he dug down and found that there was no hole at all, and it was all compacted soil underneath.
"Where's the hole? You two brats must have been dazzled by what you saw. There's not even a hole down here. Could the snake be able to escape?" Ye Rongguang and Dr. Chen looked through it carefully for a long time. The stakes were set up just now. It's just a slit, and it's only a dozen centimeters downward. Not to mention hiding a snake, it's difficult to even stuff a sock in there.
Ye Rong was a little angry. He stood up and shined a flashlight around him. In order to prepare for the on-site meeting, although the floor was not laid here, it was very smooth and there was not even a root of grass. From a biological point of view, there are no snakes here. My daughter is just teasing us!
"Uncle Ye, I remembered and took a photo."
"Photos?" Ye Rongguang became excited again after hearing this. If the photos can explain the problem, the trip was not in vain. If it is proven that there is indeed this new species in Xishan, it will be a sensation in the industry. So he quickly asked Ye Qianqian: "How many pictures were taken?"
"It was just one picture. I ran out of film at the time. Also, I was flustered at the time. I wonder if I got the picture?" Ye just seemed a little cowardly.
"Damn it!" When Ye Rongguang heard this, his mood dropped from the high point of excitement. Scientific researchers were afraid of panic when something happened. Now all her hopes are on this only photo, but she said, "I don't know if it has been taken."
If it were her own student, Professor Ye would be very interested in her.
"Where's the film?"
"exist."
"Give it to me. Don't let it run out. I'll bring it to Jinmen for development." Ye Rongguang watched blankly as Ye turned the film back, unloaded it, and put it in his pocket.
"Forget it, Lao Ye, don't get angry now, and don't worry about whether there is a snake hole here? Since both children have seen it, it means that this matter is very likely to exist. Before the photos are developed, we still There is a chance to look for it." Professor Wen stepped forward and stood in front of Ye Qianqian.
Wang Ke didn't dare to say more because he could see that Ye Xianqian's father was really angry. Wang Ke was also very surprised. He clearly saw the snake burrowing down from here, so how could there be no hole? This doesn’t make sense!
"Hey, little Wang Ke, don't you have those few stones? Let's show them to your Uncle Ye." What happened to Godfather Wen? Why did he bring up those stones now? It's a stone.
But Wang Ke didn't know what Professor Wen meant. If he couldn't calm down Professor Ye Rongguang's anger today, he might not even be able to drink the wine tonight.
"Is the stone there?" Professor Wen asked again.
"Yes, yes." Wang Ke replied quickly and led everyone to the duty room where he slept.
He dragged the shell box out from under the bed and took out the cloth bag from inside.
Now everyone is curious. Except for Professor Wen and Ye Pianqian who had seen it that day, Ye Rongguang, Dr. Chen and godfather Dong Pianfang had not seen it.
Ye Rongguang poured the stones that were filled with strong fishy smell into the palm of his hand.
The stones are not big, about the size of a quail egg. There are five of them in total, and they are all dark red. It is said that it is round or not, it is said that it is square or not, it has no edges and corners. If it were thrown on the roadside, you would definitely think that a child had thrown it away.
Ye Rongguang, like Professor Wen, picked up a piece and looked at the light bulb for a long time. He looked carefully to see if there were biological follicles inside the bright red egg, just like eggs.
No, but when you hold it in your hand, it does have a fishy smell that ordinary people can smell.
This is definitely not jade, nor is it a snake egg. Could it be a snake treasure? But why is the snake treasure red?
"Xiao Wang Ke, can you study these stones for me?" Ye Rongguang wanted to take them back to school for study.
"Okay, take them all. Oh, no."
Wang Ke just said yes, but immediately denied himself, because at this moment he suddenly saw that the two blue cat-eye-shaped stones that had been dipped in his own saliva were now glowing with blue light. This snake suddenly appeared here today. It must be looking for these stones. If so, will it bring danger to Uncle Ye?
"Why?" Ye Qianqian asked. It took a lot of effort to get his father's mood improved, but Wang Ke's actions may cause his father new displeasure.
Everyone was waiting for Wang Ke's explanation, but Wang Ke stood there, the color on his face changing rapidly. How to explain this, how to explain it to Uncle Ye?
"Squad leader Xiao Wang, do you have something to say?"
Wang Ke heard that Ye Rongguang had some misunderstandings and even changed his title. "Yes, Uncle Ye, I'm afraid of bringing you danger." When the matter comes, we can no longer let Uncle Ye misunderstand.
"How do you say this?" Ye Rongguang asked.
Wang Ke re-described the discovery of these five stones and the discovery of the snake today.
When Wang Ke talked about the snake's transition from confrontation to lying down, Ye Rongguang suddenly remembered what his daughter said. The snake did not escape, but left in a friendly manner. Yes, cobras will only stand upright, tighten their neck muscles, flatten and widen their necks, and use colorful patterns to confuse the opponent before launching an attack when they sense danger.
And now Wang Ke once again said that the snake crawled down and its neck returned to its original shape. He obviously thought that the opponent would not attack it, and the hovering body language itself was an expression of friendliness and a kind of dialogue.
"Uncle Ye, I speculate that this snake is looking for these stones, so you can't take them away. I'm worried that the snake will find you by following the smell."
Professor Ye Rongguang pondered what Wang Ke said. It's eight or nine hundred meters from the primary school to here. This snake found its way here, obviously following the smell.
Thinking of this, Ye Rongguang became a little worried again. "What about you?"
"I'm fine. The cockscomb snake walked away on its own initiative, which shows the problem. Also, I found that there were blue spots on the snake's cockscomb..."
"Yes, yes, brother Bing, I saw it too." Ye Xianqian immediately interjected.
"What do the blue dots mean? So there aren't any?" Dr. Chen was even more confused when he heard this. Several people said it was like telling a fairy tale, which completely violated the spirit of science.
"It turns out there are none, including these stones." Wang Ke replied affirmatively. The first time he saw the cockscomb snake was at noon. He could see it very clearly. The cockscomb on the snake's head was bright red, as red as transparent. apple.
"Wait a minute, little Wang Ke, what happened to this stone?" Ye Rongguang became more and more curious now, and couldn't help but be led by Wang Ke.
Wang Ke picked up one of the stones that glowed with blue light and said to Professor Ye Rongguang: "Uncle Ye, look, does this stone look like a cat's eye?"
As he spoke, Wang Ke raised his head towards the light. This time, Professor Wen and Ye Xianqian all moved their heads over. Everyone looked inside. Sure enough, inside the dark red, there was a blue dot, with a thin line of light shining on both sides. Just like a cat's eye.
You really can't tell if you don't pay attention.
"What's going on?" Ye Rongguang was constantly surprised by more and more miracles.
Wang Ke then told the story about the discoloration of the stone caused by his unintentional kiss.
Isn’t this too fantastical? Not to mention that Ye Rongguang didn't believe it, not even his godfather Dong Pianfang believed it.
"Boy, you are so eloquent, please demonstrate it on the spot."
This is true. Wang Ke thought about it for a moment. If he wanted to convince everyone, he could only demonstrate it. But if there is no such thing, then it is lying. But if you don't demonstrate it now, it will also be considered a lie.
Wang Ke thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, picked out the two pieces of cat's eye stone and put them in the palm of his hand. He also took out another piece from Professor Ye Rongguang's hand and said, "Uncle Ye, do you think there is anything wrong with these three pieces? "
Professor Wen took it, looked at the light again and again, nodded, and handed the stone to Ye Rongguang. After reading it, Ye Rongguang handed it to Dr. Chen, and finally it went into the hands of his godfather Dong Pianfang.
Godfather Dong Pianfang also watched for a long time, and then said to Wang Ke with concern: "Boy, are you sure he will change?"
The meaning is very obvious. It's not too late for you to admit it. If you screw up, your godfather won't be able to help you.
How could Wang Ke not know the meaning of godfather Dong’s prescription? But there is no turning back after shooting, so now I can only try for the sake of reputation. He nodded and said to Professor Ye Rongguang: "Uncle Ye, I don't know if there will be changes, but I promise you with the honor of a warrior, those two pieces are like this."
After speaking, Wang Ke kissed one of the stones towards his mouth. While kissing, he specially licked it with his tongue and then placed it on his palm.
A strange thing happened. In full view of the crowd, the stone did change color. And slowly focused on a blue dot, downwards, no, to be precise, seeping into the stone.
Another opal! The five people watching were all shocked.
"Ah, I understand!" Ye Xianpian immediately picked up a stone from the hand of his father, Professor Ye Rongguang. He didn't care about the unpleasant fishy smell, held it in his mouth, and then spit it out on the palm of his hand. Said: "As long as this stone meets people's saliva, it will interact with the enzymes in the mouth..."
But Ye stopped suddenly, and she couldn't speak anymore, because the stone on her palm had not changed in any way and was still dark red.
"Interesting, interesting!" Professor Ye Rongguang and Professor Wen looked at each other.
"Hahaha", Professor Ye Rongguang laughed, it was getting more and more interesting. The stone only reacted to Wang Ke's saliva. Let’s not discuss the cockscomb snake for now. This stone is against the rules, science, and human cognition!
There are two stones left, so be sure to keep them.
"Xiao Wang Ke, it seems that you will become our research object together with this stone."
Wang Ke also subverted his understanding at this time. How could this happen? Stones also recognize people. Looking back now, this cockscomb snake seems to have some kind of connection with me. Otherwise, why would it have blue dots on its head? !
