Mingqi began to think of ways to win over the two young people in front of him for his own experiment.
"Will your experiment fail?"
This question is what Ma Tao wants to know most.
Will it fail?
Ming Qi was stunned and looked down at the pile of ashes-like debris that he had just pushed to the ground without saying anything, while Ma Tao didn't even say a word.
The charred remains on the ground are the best proof of the failure of the experiment.
"Don't you have enough sources of corpses?"
In any case, Ma Tao would not use Su Lanxi's body for experiments. He looked around again and found that there were so many human organs in the room.
"adequate?"
Old Man Mingqi looked up at him, then pushed his round glasses with his hand and said, "You may not understand what I just said. What I need is a freshly dead body. If the world dies every day, If people can be sent to me, then I have enough. Unfortunately, too few people die here every day. They are all rotting corpses and are of no use at all."
Speaking of it in his heart, the old man Mingqi showed an expression of great regret, and actually let out a long sigh.
"Does it have to be a fresh corpse? Many times, corpses will rot or even be damaged by wild animals after being left outside for a day. Is it okay if it is placed in a freezer?"
Ma Tao suddenly thought that Su Lanxi, who was lying in the sealed cabin, had been dead for several days. Although his body was frozen, he didn't know whether it was still a fresh corpse.
"Theoretically, as long as it is a corpse that has not decayed or deteriorated, even if it has been dead for several days, as for the damaged ones... as long as they are not important organs and internal organs, such as the brain and heart, I can use the genetic fluid to restore them. , why do you have such a source of corpses?"
As the old man, Dr. Mingqi, spoke, little stars of urgency appeared in his eyes, and he looked at Ma Tao with bright eyes. However, the image of this old man was really not very good. It was really uncomfortable to see people like this. .
"I don't"
Before seeing the actual results, everything is just the old man's theory. Ma Tao will not take the risk and make a desperate move. Once it fails, there is no way to recover.
The old man's eyes dimmed immediately.
"But I can find fresh corpses for you."
Ma Tao's words made Dr. Mingqi's eyes light up again, as if he saw the moment when his experiment was successful.
"Really? You...are you willing to help me find fresh corpses?"
Old Man Mingqi stretched out his hand to hold Ma Tao's hand. His expression was extremely excited, and his words were trembling with uncontrollable vibrato. As Dr. Mingqi approached, Ma Tao quickly backed away. The old man was wearing rubber gloves. His hands were still stained with the bodily fluids from the corpse. The smell was really pungent, so he ran away. .
For the life resuscitation project, sufficient fresh corpses are the root of all scientific research projects. Without corpses, Mingqi can only stare at a pile of data in a daze. This mood is extremely bad, as if he is holding a pile of treasures in his hands. It's just as bad as the key to the treasure house, but I can't find it.
"Don't worry, my theory is valid. As long as a person's body is intact, there must be a way to restart life. It's like a car. If it stalls, it can't move. But once it restarts, If energy is given to the car, it will start again. The principle is the same. Even if it is broken, it can be repaired, right? Right?"
Dr. Mingqi in front of him seemed to be possessed by a demon. He was sure that Ma Tao could find a fresh source of corpses for him, and kept guaranteeing it. Seeing that Ma Tao was indifferent, he suddenly became anxious again.
"I can only try my best. If I meet you, I will bring it back to you."
Ma Tao would not kill anyone for this old guy's experiment, and he would never do such an unscrupulous thing.
Seeing what he said, the old man, Dr. Mingqi, looked at Ma Tao with eager eyes, then let out a long sigh, slowly turned around and touched the machine behind him, silently.
"Dr. Minch, can I ask you something?"
Ma Tao came here for two purposes. One was to hope that this weird Mingqi could save Su Lanxi, and the other was to inquire about the Rebirth Pill.
"You also know about the Regeneration Pill?"
Well, after hearing Ma Tao say these three words, Dr. Mingqi, who was originally a little depressed, became energetic again, turned around and looked at Ma Tao blankly.
"I'm just curious. If there is such a thing as a regeneration pill, what's the point of your research?"
Ma Tao didn't want to hit this old man without a hair, but he just suddenly thought of this problem.
"hehe……"
Mingqi laughed first, and then said in a very regretful tone, "The Rebirth Pill is indeed a magical object that can win the wonders of the world, and it is also the greatest invention in the human world. What a pity! What a pity, it can change life and death." What can be called a divine object has completely become a legend in history. Even the recipe for making the Regeneration Pill has been left in the dust of history. In today's world, I am afraid that no one can be found anymore."
Speaking of this, Dr. Mingqi shook his head with infinite regret.
"Is it really possible that none of them can survive?"
Seeing the deep disappointment on Ma Tao's face, my sister couldn't bear to ask more questions.
The old man Mingqi stared at her for two seconds, then thought about it carefully. Suddenly he looked happy, stretched out the index finger of his left hand and said with a little trembling, "Hey~ It doesn't seem to be the case..."
"There is still a place to find the Regeneration Pill! Where is it???"
Ma Tao became excited in an instant.
As long as there is a place, no matter how difficult and difficult the road is, even if it is a mountain of swords, a sea of fire, a sea of horses, we must give it a try.
"That was many years ago..."
Old Man Mingqi touched his bald head and tried hard to recall and said, "I remember, it was when I was young. I was not a Ph.D., just a small scientific researcher. The place where I worked was called...? ?”
Obviously because the memory was too long ago, Dr. Mingqi could no longer remember clearly. He frowned and had a hard time recalling.
"What's it called? What's it called?"
Ma Tao was anxious and stared into the old man's eyes. He ignored the stench emanating from the corpse on his hands and beside him and followed him closely to ask questions.
"It's called... it's called Yoshida Life Research Institute. I remembered it, it's called Yoshida Life Research Institute!!! That's right!!!"
Dr. Mingqi looked excited, but Ma Tao was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning.
Yoshida Life Research Institute.
Yoshida.
Such a familiar name, Yoshida. He was the culprit who personally created the Invincible Hospital. He also created Marshall, a monster with invincible defenses. He was also a butcher who killed countless lives. So many names were combined into one, but he didn’t. Which one is the one who can leave a good impression on others.
"Yoshida...Life Research Institute?"
Ma Tao said softly.
"Yes, if there is really a regeneration pill handed down in this world, it must be at the Yoshida Life Research Institute."
Mingqi nodded firmly.
"why is that?"
My sister saw that Ma Tao had become very strange since he heard about the Yoshida Institute of Life Sciences. She lowered her head and meditated and picked up what Dr. Mingqi said.
"Back then, Yoshida relied on the only regeneration pill in his hand for comparison. His biggest purpose was to understand the secret of the regeneration pill and produce a new one. Unfortunately, until the research institute was attacked and destroyed by Noah None of them succeeded in replicating a regeneration pill, and it was also because of that time that all of us were separated. Therefore, if there is still a regeneration pill in this world, it must be at the Yoshida Research Institute!"
The more Dr. Mingqi talked, the more detailed he became. He dug out these old sesame and rotten millet things little by little, just like passing them through a sieve. It was very comprehensive.
"Isn't it possible that Yoshida took him away?"
My sister quickly made an assumption.
"Absolutely impossible. It took less than half an hour for Noah to attack the research institute. There was no chance whether it was time or anything else, and Yoshida himself was even more impossible."
Recalling Noah's attack, Dr. Mingqi's somewhat thin body actually began to tremble slightly. I really can't imagine what Mingqi saw during that attack.
"Where is the Yoshida Life Research Institute?"
Ma Tao didn't care about what was in the past, he only cared about where he could find the Rebirth Pill.
Which, the old guy in front of me actually shook his head.
"You don't know? How is this possible???"
I'm confused now. Isn't it strange that Mingqi, who ran away from the Yoshida Life Research Institute, doesn't know how to go back? Ma Tao's face suddenly became ugly, like a bitter melon.
"The only way to the Yoshida Life Research Institute is to transmit through the space-time tunnel. However, only Yoshida himself knows the coordinates, and outsiders cannot find them. Otherwise, Noah's army would not have captured the institute so quickly. Back then, the escapees There may be more people coming out.”
Dr. Mingqi's eyes were slightly red and swollen, obviously thinking of those days in the institute again.
"Noah is attacking the research institute through the time and space tunnel?"
Ma Tao immediately grasped the problem. His question surprised Dr. Mingqi for a moment.
"how do you know?"
This time it was Mingqi's turn to be a little strange. He didn't tell this young man how the research institute was captured, but this kid actually knew.
"guessed"
Ma Tao opened his mouth and spit out these two words.
"Alas~"
After Mingqi heard this, he sighed again and said sadly, "Noah back then was really powerful enough to destroy the world. He was even more elusive on the Internet and controlled almost all the means of the entire human race. It can be said that Noah He is a god-like existence. I remember that day, before dawn, the time and space tunnel was opened. Just when everyone thought that a new partner was coming, a disaster happened. The person transmitted by the time and space tunnel was not a human being at all. , and Noah's army of monsters wanted to close the tunnel, but found that they could not control it at all. They wanted to blow up the time and space tunnel, but it was already too late. Noah's minions had completely controlled the time and space tunnel, and soon the massacre began. Well, I managed to escape the massacre by hiding under a corpse, and I managed to escape with my life by secretly using the backup space-time tunnel. Until now, I have not seen the second person escape from it, so I I just said, I don’t know how to get to the Yoshida Life Research Institute.”
After Mingqi finished speaking, he looked at the two young men and women who were listening carefully to his narration of these old almanacs. Seeing that they were both deep in thought, he sighed again.
After a long time, Ma Tao came back to his senses, looked at his sister beside him, and said, "Thank you for telling us this. We have something else to do, so let's go first."
After that, he turned around and walked back.
"Little V, wait for me"
She smiled apologetically at old man Mingqi, and her sister hurried after him.
"Don't forget that you promised me to find the body for me!!!"
Seeing that these two people left after asking what they wanted to ask, Mingqi was afraid that they would forget what they had just promised to him and hurriedly reminded him, but Ma Tao and his sister had already opened the door and walked out.
"I'd better continue my experiments..."
Looking at the corpse he had just dug up lying on the wooden bed, Mingqi showed an excited expression again.
In a large, eerie house, an old man with a strange face and a blue coat was dancing crazily around a rotten male corpse that smelled bad. From time to time, he would make bursts of weird laughter. The picture looked weird. Incomparable.
"You seem to know that Yoshida very well?"
On the way back, my sister caught up with Ma Tao and asked with a dark expression on his face.
Ma Tao, who was walking a little hastily, paused when he heard the words, and said to himself, more than understanding, what Yoshida did was simply unscrupulous, using living people for experiments, and doing things that would make people and gods angry, it was simply... Beast, his research institute was destroyed by Noah, and thinking that many lives might have been sacrificed there, Ma Tao didn't pity him at all, so he briefly recounted the experience of Invincible Hospital to his sister.
Hearing that such a terrifying monster was actually created by Yoshida, my sister also looked worried. She was worried about Ma Tao.
When Ma Tao returned home, it was already dark, but not too dark. It was his father who opened the door. When he saw the two siblings outside the door, he smiled and said, "Your friends are waiting for you."
"Father"
My sister still yelled naturally as before. Ma Tao looked at her and yelled too.
"Eh~"
Dad nodded and looked back at Ma Tao's friends, "Do you still need to eat something?"
Xiao Jinzi, Anruo, and Gao Han had no idea what was going on. From the time they ran away until they came back, the three of them never left the room, and even helped give them the leftover dishes and chopsticks. washed.
"Uncle, thank you, but... we are already full."
Xiao Jinzi saw the whole family standing at the door, and noticed that Ma Tao's expression was a little unnatural, but he didn't know what happened, and it was hard to ask at this time, so he said some polite words.
"Do you want a drink?"
Ma Tao didn't enter the house, but stood at the door and shouted to the three of them.
"Ah! Still drinking..."
An Ruo looked at them with some lingering fear.
"Then just drink less."
Gao Han's seductive eyes rolled, and he stretched out his hand to gently slap Xiao Jinzi next to him, with a charming smile on his face.
"Ah, then drink less..."
Xiao Jinzi originally didn't plan to mention drinking anymore, but after being reminded by Sister Han these two times, he immediately knew that Ma Tao might have said this because he wanted to talk to them about something.
Dad didn't stop him, but he glanced at Ma Tao's sister.
"Can your sister go with you?"
Dad looked at Ma Tao, and when he nodded, he finally smiled.
Even Xiaolian's tavern is still the same, with gentle music instead of the explosive music. This slow pace is also very suitable for the daily life of the villagers in Naduo Village. At night, people who have been busy all day Many villagers will choose to come here to have a drink. After all, there are usually no entertainment projects. Drinking wine and listening to music is the best way to enjoy life.
In the tavern, Lian Xiaolian, who was wearing a pink jumpsuit, was busy serving drinks to the guests. This young widow in her late twenties was still as hot as ever, nodding and chuckling to everyone she talked to. , looks the same as before.
Maybe there were a lot of people today, and there was a thin layer of sweat beads on the bridge of Lian Xiaolian's nose, which made her look shiny.
"Sister Xiaolian, please have three glasses of plum wine and two glasses of soda water."
As soon as Ma Tao's voice fell, Lian Xiaolian, who was mixing drinks, agreed, glanced in the direction of the voice, and was slightly startled when he saw Ma Tao.
"You're back? When did you come back?"
Lian Xiaolian seemed very happy to see Ma Tao. Just as she was about to put down the mixing glass in her hand, the voices of several villagers urging her to drink rang out.
"Wait a minute, I'll serve them wine first."
Lian Xiaolian smiled apologetically at Ma Tao, said loudly to the other side, and walked over with the wine tray.
"Bar owner?"
Gao Han looked at Ma Tao and then at Lian Xiaolian and asked.
As a mature woman, Gao Han subconsciously compared herself with the other person, and found that she and she were two extremes. Although they were both mature women, the charm of women would be revealed in every move inadvertently. But a woman’s personality determines her taste. The bar owner Lian Xiaolian has that kind of appearance. Gao Han is just the opposite. She is a convex type. In other words, Lian Xiaolian’s sexiness is reflected in her appearance. In terms of dressing up, Gao Han is based on her actions, one is hot on the outside and the other is hot on the inside.
"Her name is Lian Xiaolian. His fiancé died outside just after they got engaged. Sister Xiaolian manages this bar by herself to make a living. She is a poor woman."
Ma Tao explained.
Soon, after Lian Xiaolian sent the drinks to the table, she turned around and gave them the two glasses of plum wine and a glass of soda water that Ma Tao asked for.
Lian Xiaolian, who originally planned to sit here with Ma Tao for a while, before she could say anything, the shouts of another group urging people to drink started again. Lian Xiaolian had no choice but to go over there and get busy first.
"Sister Xiaolian!"
Ma Tao stopped Lian Xiaolian who was about to turn around.
"Um?"
Lian Xiaolian turned around.
"You go about your business. If we need anything, I will get it myself."
Ma Tao smiled.
"Then take it yourself"
Lian Xiaolian nodded and continued busy.
Because of the addition of Ma Tao's sister, Xiao Jinzi Anruo and Gao Han were more or less restrained, and no one was the first to get the drinks on the table.
"Drink, the plum wine here is very delicious, sour and sweet."
Seeing that they didn't do anything, Ma Tao picked up a glass of soda and drank it.
"Then why don't you drink?"
Xiao Jinzi looked at the three glasses of plum wine on the table, then looked at the soda water in Ma Tao's hand and asked.
"Because I've had enough wine."
Ma Tao said casually, and then asked everyone again, "Try it, it's really good."
"Little V didn't lie to you, the plum wine from Tomura is really good."
Ma Tao's sister then reached out and took a glass of plum wine, put it in her mouth and took a few sips.
The elder sister spoke, Gao Han and Xiao Jinzi picked up a glass together and sipped it slightly, while An Ruo, like Ma Tao, picked up soda water.
"Huh? It tastes really good."
The first person to sigh was Gao Han.
Plum wine, a sweet and sour drink, is also a favorite of women. It seems to be very suitable for this female man's appetite.
As for Xiao Jinzi, I drank it immediately after tasting it.
"Isn't this just juice?"
Xiao Jinjin, who was still unfinished, shook the empty wine glass and said.
“But it’s really wine. If it’s wine, you can’t drink too much.”
After finishing speaking, Ma Tao stood up, went to the wine counter, picked up the container of plum wine, poured him another glass, then took out a few G's from his pocket and placed them on the ancient counter, turned around and came back.
"Here, one last drink."
Ma Tao said as he handed the glass of plum wine in front of Xiao Jinzi.
"Can you give me some more?"
Gao Han looked at the full glass of plum wine in Ma Tao's hand and said eagerly.
In the end, Gao Han and Xiao Jinzi shared half of the glass of wine.
"Tell me, you called us all here. There must be something you don't want your father to know."
Gao Han drank the remaining plum wine. Although she was still a little dissatisfied, she also knew that there was something wrong with calling them out. She glanced at Ma Tao's sister and asked.
Xiao Jinzi and An Ruo also put down their wine glasses and looked at Ma Tao.
After looking at the villagers around him and seeing that they were all chattering about their family's personal problems, Ma Tao sighed and narrated what happened that day.
From the original owner of the 01 tank to the robot sister sitting next to him, to the research of the weird old man Dr. Mingqi, including the regeneration pills, Ma Tao told them everything in detail, and the expressions on the faces of the three people could be heard. His expressions were changing, and he looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes for a while before he understood the meaning of Ma Tao's words.
"So what you don't want your father to know is that you're going to find the Regeneration Pill?"
Gao Han heard that Ma Tao was afraid that his father would try his best to stop him.
After all, the risk of going to such a dangerous place for an illusory thing is indeed not that high.
"This is just one, the second is that I want to hear your opinions."
Ma Tao looked at the three of them and said.
