Chapter 211 Qiujiawan


Chapter 211 Qiujiawan

"Yang Qi," Sun Hang suddenly raised his head, "Is the meme frequency of Chimera No. 17 recorded in the database?"

"Yes, yes..." Yang Qi nodded, "Tianfu City recovered the shed remains of Chimera No. 17, and the memes remaining in the wreckage completely disappeared, and they were recorded... But this part The meme fragments are incomplete and incomplete..."

"Compare the meme fragment of Chimera No. 17 with the meme of this thing." Sun Hang said, "Now, immediately, immediately."

"I am connecting to the core host of the Tianfu City Monster Research Institute. The comparison process may take a few minutes." Yang Qi replied while typing on the keyboard, "Do you doubt that this thing is the same as Chimera No. 17? Related? ”

"Don't you think it's very similar?" Sun Hang pointed at the thing attached to the brain tissue of the skeletal skeleton, "This thing is the symbiotic offspring of Chimera No. 17, those little spiders we saw in the video... …Almost exactly the same.”

"Exactly the same?" Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, "If you put it this way... the shape of this thing does look a bit like a spider, but the style of painting is a bit abstract."

Sun Hang did not stop what he was doing. He dissected the entire corpse - except for the foreign objects attached to the brain tissue, this corpse was nothing special, even the memes it was infected with , are all very common scraps of memetic fragments.

In academia, such meme fragments are generally called "leftovers", just like the fragments of DNA that become fragmented after organisms are exposed to high-intensity radiation. Things infected by such meme fragments are rarely completely weird. Turning into a treacherous thing...either turning into a treacherous skeleton, or heading towards destruction in the process of becoming a treacherous thing.

In the eyes of a "gourmet gourmet" like Taotie, there is a more vivid vocabulary to describe this kind of thing.

"Go into the water".

Sun Hang endured nausea and absorbed the meme of this strange corpse, but as expected, the memory "stored" inside the meme was empty... long before Sun Hang took action, everything had been absorbed by something else. memory.

"Bad luck."

Sun Hang spat on the ground, then went back to the car to get a bottle of water, and drank half of the bottle in one go. The nauseating feeling was slightly relieved.

But it only alleviated a small part... After all, memes are not food. No matter how much water Sun Hang drank, he could not completely dilute the smell of rot.

This feeling is like eating a pot of raw pig water that has started to go rancid.

"Are you okay?" Yang Qi glanced at Sun Hang worriedly, "Your expression seems a little uncomfortable."

"It's nothing, it's just a meme of this thing...it tastes too bad." Sun Hang sighed, "I feel like I'm eating shit."

"Uh... are you sure you're okay?"

Sun Hang waved his hand, shook the remaining half bottle of water, walked to the corpse, used a scalpel to pick up the thing attached to its brain tissue, and stuffed it into the bottle.

This thing looks like the size of a palm, but the body is very soft, and a bottle mouth less than three centimeters in diameter can be easily passed through - no wonder there is no external injury on the head of this weird corpse, this thing is probably from his nasal cavity Or it was drilled into the ear canal... Sun Hang suddenly thought of the infamous prefrontal lobotomy of the year. Those quack doctors would insert the ice pick into the nasal cavity or the bottom of the eye socket of the "patient who needs treatment", and then cut off the patient by swinging it. of frontal lobe.

This kind of surgery will create a silent walking zombie, and this little thing that only burrows into the brain of the creature can create a walking zombie that can obey orders.

As soon as the parasite with eight synapses came into contact with the water, it immediately showed a stress response. It first began to twitch, and then kept rolling in the water. The synapses hit the wall of the plastic bottle one by one, as if it was planning to Tear open the bottle and escape from inside.

At the front end of the synapse, there are extremely sharp serrations - obviously, it used this thing to pierce the skeleton's bones and septum, and drilled into the cranial cavity... Logically speaking, the thin plastic bottle cannot withstand this. No matter how hard the parasite's synapse works, it can only create white marks on the inner wall of the plastic bottle, and cannot cut through this seemingly soft, but actually extremely tough bottle.

This is not because this bottle is so magical, it's just that Sun Hang attached a thin to almost transparent liquid metal coating to the outside of the bottle - the synapses of the parasite can cut through plastic, but not tight. The metal film attached to the plastic.

"This guy seems a little restless." Zhulong came over, took a look at the parasite in the bottle, and said.

"Then let it calm down." Sun Hang gently bit the tip of his tongue and spit a small drop of blood into the bottle.

This drop of blood spread instantly in the water, and the parasites that came into contact with the blood seemed to be paralyzed and stopped moving all of a sudden.

Sun Hang screwed on the bottle cap, sealed it with metal coating, and then threw the bottle into the car.

"What are you going to use it for?" Zhulong asked curiously.

"I don't know, I just thought it might be useful to keep it." Sun Hang shook his head and returned to the driver's seat.

"The drone sent the picture back." Yang Qi's face was very ugly. "Like Liangshuigou, no trace of villagers' activities was found in Qiujiawan... The whole village was dead silent."

"What should I say? Should we continue to Liangshuigou, or should we go to Qiujiawan first?" Zhulong asked.

"Qiujiawan." Sun Hang turned the steering wheel all the way, and the car turned 180 degrees and turned back to the direction it came from.

……

Compared with most closed Qiang villages, Qiujiawan is a relatively open type. Not long after Sun Hang and the others entered the side road, they saw a large billboard standing on the roadside with eye-catching words. The words "Farmhouse with Qiang Characteristics" are written in orange fonts, and underneath are photos of beautiful Qiang girls in national costumes.

The girl held a finely crafted porcelain plate in her hand, which seemed to contain dishes such as fried bacon.

“Aren’t the villagers of Qiujiawan willing to leave the village and seek refuge in the city?” Sun Hang asked while driving, “It seems like they don’t look like a backward and isolated Qiang village. ”

"I checked, and it is true that, as you said, Qiujiawan is an anomaly among these Qiang villages." Yang Qi's voice came from the back seat, "But the reason why they are unwilling to leave is not because of the ancestral precepts. …”

"What's that for?"

"Because of the vigorous development of tourism and farmhouse projects, Qiujiawan is one of the richest villages in this mountainous area. Many villagers have built small villas in the village, as well as various restaurants, farms and restaurants used to attract tourists. Retro Qiang Village..."

"Don't tell me that they are unwilling to leave because they are reluctant to part with these real estate properties." Sun Hang immediately guessed the answer in his heart.

"Although the Lizhou City Public Security Bureau's action file doesn't say it clearly... but that's pretty much what it means." Yang Qi nodded.

"People die for money." Sun Hang couldn't help but sigh.

He thought of the driver uncle from the Tianfu City Research Institute... Eternal night enveloped the entire Shuzhou, but there were very few people who wanted to escape from this place...

The reason is also very simple. Their families, houses, jobs, and careers are all rooted in this land. If they go to other places, they can only become refugees with nothing... What's more, with the current situation in Shuzhou, if you want to It is extremely difficult to sell real estate, and it is too difficult to start a new life in another city with only the little savings on hand.

The federal government will only provide the most basic survival guarantees to the refugees, but apart from that, there is nothing else... For the people of Shuzhou, leaving Shuzhou means that they will never return to the life they once had. , their efforts in the first half of their lives will be in vain...

And if you stay, you might be able to see the day when the sun rises again.

With a slight sound of brakes, the car stopped.

Sun Hang got out of the car and glanced at the five-meter-high stone next to him. The stone was engraved with the six characters "Welcome to Qiujiawan" and the palm-wide groove was filled with bright red paint... ...This tone was originally quite festive, but in this dark and silent atmosphere, the big blood-red characters illuminated by the car lights suddenly became a little scary.

Especially in conjunction with the few shabby red lanterns hanging at the entrance to the village, Sun Hang suddenly felt that if a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes were placed in the middle of the road, it would be perfect.

"Have any fluctuations in the strange creature meme been detected?" Sun Hang asked.

"No." Yang Qi shook her head, "I have maximized the search range and power, but still nothing was found."

"Absolutely, I can't smell anything." Sun Hang patted the hood, "You guys stay in the car for now, I'll go into the village and have a look."

"Try not to enter the room and get out of the drone's surveillance range." Yang Qi instructed, "If there is an emergency, send the predetermined code and we will immediately enter the village to support you."

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

"Understood."

Sun Hang snapped his fingers, and liquid metal immediately flowed out of his sleeves, condensing into a dozen sharp flying blades, floating around him, and then slowly walked into the village.

There are two farmhouse hotels at the entrance of the village. From the cars parked in front of the hotels, it can be seen that the affluence and living conditions of Qiujiawan are indeed unmatched by other Qiang villages.

Sun Hang pushed open the courtyard door of the farmhouse on the left - the space inside the courtyard was very large, with a heavy stone mill in the corner, two motorcycles leaning against the wall, and a few small benches scattered around the courtyard. ...The yard was full of traces of human life, but Sun Hang couldn't see any living people.

Oh, correct me, dead people can’t see it either.

Sun Hang walked to the door of the room and was about to open the door when Yang Qi's reminder came from the earphones: "Don't leave the drone's field of view, be careful!"

"Okay." Sun Hang took half a step back, opened the door instead of knocking on the door, and asked loudly, "Is anyone at home? I'm from the Lizhou City Public Security Bureau, making a routine visit."

No one answered.

"Yang Qi, military drones should have the function of scanning heat sources, right?" Sun Hang said to the headset, "Scan this house to see if there are any living things inside."

"Yes, there is, but this function consumes a lot of electricity... If you have to scan every house, the drone will probably have to return soon."

"Sweep this building first." Sun Hang said, "If there is no one in this building, the other houses will probably be about the same."

"Okay... the scan is in progress." Yang Qi said softly, "The results came out. As expected, no heat source was found in the house."

Sun Hang did not stop at the door of the room, but walked to the window on the side, stood on tiptoe and looked in.

Through the glass with purple sunscreen film, Sun Hang could vaguely see several faces looking at him behind the window.

That's not a human face, or rather, it's not a normal human face.

The proportions of their facial features are extremely exaggerated, they look like gods or ghosts, but they just don't look like humans.

Sun Hang did not panic, because he did not feel any life breath or any threat on these faces.

The metal flying blade silently cut through the glass window and removed the entire piece of glass. Only then did Sun Hang see clearly that the strange faces behind these windows were actually Nuo opera masks displayed on the shelves. ……

Nuo opera performances are also one of the entertainment items provided by Qiujiawan Farmhouse. Sun Hang remembered that he saw it on the price list at the door. The fees were quite expensive. The ticket cost 240 per person, and children were half price. , and more than twenty people must be gathered before the performance can begin.

"People in the city really have enough to eat and have free time." Sun Hang took another look at these Nuo opera masks full of uncanny valley effect, "I'm afraid children will wet their beds at night after looking at these things."

"What did you see?" Yang Qi couldn't help but ask, "Why did you stay in front of the window for so long?"

The field of view of the drone was nearly vertical, so Yang Qi could only see Sun Hang standing in front of the window and cutting the glass with a metal flying blade, but she could not see what was inside the window.

"Here, let me show you."

Sun Hang took a few photos of the Nuo opera masks and sent them.

"What is it?" Yang Qi's voice in the earphones suddenly felt weird, "Is there nothing?"

"Nothing?" Sun Hang was stunned and quickly pulled out the photos he had just taken.

In the photo, there are only empty display racks, and there are no weird and scary Nuo opera masks.

Sun Hang suddenly raised his head, and saw that these masks were still hanging on the shelf, half-smiling, or staring at him with angry eyes.

Sun Hang slowly took two steps back.

"What's wrong?" Yang Qi's tone was a little anxious, "What on earth did you see?"

"Damn, there's something dirty." Sun Hang said.
