I Was Once a Legend
124 Photosynthetic Swarm
The satellite system on the floating vehicle is showing the entire city’s surface on the screen. The ice sheet has raised the city’s altitude by nearly 50 meters. Dong Zheng looked at the extremely complicated contour map. Is it a city?
The wind is a bit strong, and the suspended vehicle can only drive against the ground, and it is constantly shaking slightly. The wind and snow greatly reduce the visibility. From the outside of the car, there is only a blurry white.
Since the underground base came out, Wangque became silent. There are too many insects here. Although most of them are sleeping, she can still feel vaguely.These tiny inductions, with a huge amount of bonuses, became a sense of terror, dormant in her mind, waiting for orders and summons.
Dong Linhai saw her discomfort, tilted her head for a second, and touched the girl's arm, saying, "Are you afraid of bugs?"
Wangque nodded.
Dong Linhai: "Did you catch any grasshopper cricket or something when you were a kid?"
Wangque: "Yes, at that time, I played with the children of the neighbor's house. At night, there were many on the wall of the building. Several of our children grabbed and put them together in the cage.
Dong Linhai didn't understand: "That shouldn't be, why are they afraid now?"
Wangque smiled helplessly: "I still have a lot of things that I was not afraid of doing when I was young, but I don't know how to grow up and be timid."
"Maybe girls and boys are not the same." Dong Linhai said, "Actually, I was also afraid for a while. When I was in kindergarten, I like to dig watermelon bugs in the small garden. At the festival, a small bug that curls up into a ball when in danger is a bit like the bug we just saw. Once I grabbed a whole bottle and went home at night and then became allergic. Rash, itching all night did not fall asleep. My brother should know about this."
Dong Zheng, who was sitting in the driver's seat, had been listening to their conversation and nodded: "Remember, you itch and cry on the floor, making me sleepless all night."
Dong Linhai: "...you just remember it. Don't be so detailed."
Wangque couldn't help laughing, Dong Linhai glanced at the curvature of her lips, somehow, she felt a subtle satisfaction in her heart.
Dong Linhai had also talked to two girlfriends before, to be honest, they were chased by him. After all, he was still rich, cool, and stylish. The second master of the Dong family was simply a dream lover of thousands of girls. After waiting for a while, it felt boring, Dong Linhai did not delay others, just broke up very simply, chic and cheerful.
But now, just like many pilgrims, he is struggling to survive in the pure white world.
In addition to all the advantages given by his family, he is really an ordinary boy.
But he has one of the biggest advantages now, and that is to be able to get emotional for a long time!As long as you get along for a long time, and care more about each other, Wangque will definitely be interesting to him... right?
To be honest, Dong Linhai is not sure.
The wind and snow outside gradually became smaller, Dong Zheng and Alan took turns driving, Lin Hangzhi showed them the road conditions and acted as guides, and the three real and half children sat behind, borderless Chatting.
In the end, the box is for the wonton splitter team members to enter after exercise. In order to achieve a good effect, Cui Zuojing should not have too much intervention, so he felt the fish with peace of mind.
The car was swayed by the wind, and Cui Zuojing also swayed, and was quickly trapped by the sway. He yawned and was about to squint for a while, then suddenly felt the car stopped.
"I'll go down for a while and wait." Dong Zheng put on his helmet again, did not say what to do, and got out of the car with Alan.
Cui Zuojing came to his spirit, turned over and lay prone on the window, watching the two of them stepping into the snow deep waist-to-toe, the whole fell into it, almost opened the road with his body, and slammed in the snow. Six meters away.
It is also the loss of both of them, if Wangque goes down, it is estimated that they can be buried in the chest.
The protective clothing was very light, so it wasn’t as laborious as expected, and until it reached a protruding ice stone not far away, Dong Zheng stopped and when he saw that he was still in the cab at close range, he pointed to Allen Lin. Something to watch.
Dong Zheng has been looking around since he came out. In today's extremely bad weather conditions, even the most tenacious moss plants cannot grow, and the whole world is desperately white.
But just now, he had a glimpse of a distinctive green.
This is a dark green hard block, a very thick layer, attached to the ice stone, has a furry feeling, unlike any known plant.
"Is this a plant?" Allen's voice was a little dull in the helmet. He, Dong Zheng, and Lin Hangzhi had already discussed the problem of the world's biosphere just now. Since there are so many bugs, there must be a lot of people around. Producers who can convert inorganic matter into organic matter and provide them with the food they need to survive.
"Not quite like that." Dong Zheng held out his hand and gently touched the green piece.
The moment the protective glove touched it, the whole piece of green immediately moved into countless tiny dots, quickly falling apart and moving in all directions, and some climbed up Dong Zheng's gloves and followed him quickly. The arm moves.
"Fuck." Dong Zheng was startled. He couldn't help but make a swearing, and quickly drove away the small bugs on his body.Allen stepped back one after another in awe, forgetting that it was not in a normal terrain environment. One did not stand firmly and directly shot into the thick snow, leaving a human-shaped crater more than half a meter deep.
"Is this still a bug?!" Alan scrambled up and saw that the swarms scattered by Dong Zheng's stimulus reunited in another sunny place, forming a green.
"Go back first." Dong Zheng did not arbitrarily conclude that the two returned to the suspension car in the same way. It was just a short while before they ran out of the road and they were already covered with snow.
The door blocked the wind and snow from the window, and Lin Hang, who saw the two people's full response from the window, asked anxiously, "How?"
"It's not a real plant." Dong Zheng reached out his hand, and in his palm, there was a little green dot that was pinched to death before he could escape.
Cui Zuojing they also came, several people looked closer, Lin Hangzhi frowned: "Is this still a bug?"
"It should not be exactly." Cui Zuojing said, "Doctor Lin, do you think this color looks like cyanobacteria?"
Lin Hang understood the meaning of Cui Zuojing: "Do you mean that this worm contains photosynthetic pigments capable of photosynthesis like cyanobacteria?"
Cui Zuojing: "Almost, my biology is not good, but you know what I mean."
Dong Linhai scratched his head: "Aren't chloroplasts capable of photosynthesis?"
"Blue algae, like many photosynthetic bacteria, does not have organelles, and only rely on light and pigments such as chlorophyll for photosynthesis." Lin Hangzhi explained, "I originally thought that there may be many bacteria that perform chemical energy synthesis as Producers support the biosphere, but they always feel that there are not so many inorganic substances for their transformation. Now it seems that if some insects can evolve organelles for photosynthesis or contain photosynthetic pigments... use their huge number as producers , That's not impossible."
"This structure has a greater survival advantage than traditional plants. It can be scattered to avoid danger and disasters. It can be formed in a place with good light at any time to have better photosynthetic efficiency. It seems... quite scientific ?"
Allen sighed: "It's both an animal and a plant, it's kind of magical."
Dong Zheng: "It is estimated that there are still many magical things in the future. Let's go on."
The worm's body was thrown aside. This time it was replaced by Allen driving. Dong Zheng took a short break. There was a lot of snow on his protective clothing. Cui Zuojing quickly took pictures and took off his helmet for ventilation.
Dong Zheng exhaled a long white mist, and the car was still not too warm. The water vapor condensed on his long and dense eyelashes, forming a thin ice flower.
Cui Zuojing looked left and right. He really felt that a man who grows up like this is quite heroic, and it is really favored by God.
Perceiving Cui Zuojing's eyes, Dong Zheng also looked over: "?"
"It's okay." The teenager put the helmet in his arms, "Look at you handsome."
Dong Zheng was almost choked by his own saliva. He had seen a lot of strong winds and waves. He turned out uncontrollably because of this sentence, but his surroundings were cold and should not be seen.
Wangque covered her face silently and warned herself repeatedly in her heart: No, you can't just knock the real person's cp, this is disrespect to both parties, if Dong Ge and Cui Ge know, it is estimated that she will be killed. !
But... but it's really sweet and soooo!
Serious (levy Jing) is rio!
The snow is much smaller, the sun is gradually coming out, and the visibility is much higher. As the wind gradually drops, the suspension vehicle also becomes stable.
Now they are 29 kilometers away from the base. The Institute of Biochemistry is in the northwest, and the base is in the east. The route given by the terminal needs to pass through the urban area. Of course, it is only the urban area of the year.
The suspension vehicle was moving slowly but steadily. There was no sudden situation for nearly two hours. Although it was known that the box could not be calm, everyone could not help but relax the nerves that had been tight all the time.
No one can bear it if it has been stretched.
At the moment when the countdown became 64:34:21, the car suddenly shook suddenly and stopped directly. Cui Zuojing, who was leaning on the carriage, was framed unsteady and fell into Dong Zheng's arms. , Did not get up for a long time.
"What's the matter?" Dong Zheng, out of some ulterior motives, didn't help him, and asked to the cab.
"I don't know, there's nothing in front. Is there a stone stuck on the ground?" Lin Hang, one of the heads, was always paying attention to the road conditions. The satellite image also showed that there were no large obstacles ahead. How could he stop suddenly?
Allen, who was driving, kept trying to reverse and steer, exhausting all the methods he could think of, but failed to move the car any more.
"It should be stuck." Allen sighed, with a bad guess, sighing, "I hope we don't have to walk on the next road, come, who will accompany me to see?"
"I'm coming." Dong Linhai volunteered. Wangque looked at the pure white outside, and felt that there was a call.
She frowned in disbelief and stood up: "I'll go too."
