Chapter 61

In the early morning of the next day, the sun shone unobstructed in the dilapidated city.

One day before No. 70, when the virus broke out, a group of rescue team members with shirtless backs at the desolate construction site splashed water on each other while washing and fighting with each other. , Provoking everyone to shout and avoid.

The early morning air was still slightly cool and damp, so Xiang Chen raised his foot to kick the team member who was spraying water, pulled the hose away with a smile and cursing, turned around and sprayed it on Luo Zisong, Xiang Kun and others.

Xiang Kun had just washed his head in a hurry, and covered his head with a kerchief, and when he raised his face, his heart was poured cold, and he immediately cursed: "Stinky boy! How old are you! Are you childish?!"

An Jing passed through the crowd like a fish, pulled down Xiang Chen's pants with one hand, laughed loudly, the gauze on his face was wet with water, Luo Zisong lifted him up like a chicken, and said with a frown: "Naughty."

Luo Zisong wiped his face, and carried Jing Jing to change the medicine. The water drops slid down from his muscular and smooth muscles, causing Jing Jing to stare obsessively, smashing his mouth and pretending to suck his saliva, stretched out his hand to pinch it. He held his nose and said, "Nosebleed! Nosebleed!"

Luo Zisong's ears were red, and he put the man down to break his hand: "Don't hold it, let me see?"

An Jing grinningly stepped forward to wipe the oil, touched the firm chest muscles and ran away.

Luo Zisong: "..."

It just so happened that Luo Zisong's ex-wife brought her daughter over to take a shower, followed by a group of children. When the rescue team saw Omega, they quickly turned around and used a towel to cover themselves with a bucket.

The woman hurriedly turned her head away from looking, but when she saw Luo Zisong approaching, she smiled embarrassedly, and handed over the towel in her hand.

Luo Zisong thanked him for taking it over, wiped his hair and face, knelt down and pinched his daughter's soft face: "Did you sleep well?"

"Okay!" Xiao Yanyan leaned over and put her arms around her father's neck refusing to let go, Luo Zisong picked up her daughter and rubbed her unshaved beard stubble, making the child giggle.

The woman showed a gentle smile and whispered to Luo Zisong.

An Jing hid behind a pillar not far away and watched for a while, and was patted on the shoulder.

"Ah!" An Jing was taken aback, turned her head, and saw Wen Chuan holding an electronic pen in her mouth, a miniature tablet under her arm, and hot porridge in one hand.

Wen Chuan followed his gaze and said, "Don't worry about Brother Luo?"

"What's there to worry about?" An Jing curled her lips, saying so, but looked at the other side without blinking her eyes, "He's a stubborn person, he accepts death, and he values ​​friendship. Since he's already with me, naturally he won't It’s going to mess with other people.”

Jing Jing said without being sure, and murmured: "But he didn't say he likes me."

"Brother Luo is not good at expressing. He injected the 'matrix' for you, which is enough to prove his intentions." Wen Chuan took a sip of the hot porridge, and when he saw Xiang Chen running towards him wiping the water, he smiled unconsciously .

Before Jing Jing had time to say anything, Xiang Chen rushed over like a cannonball, hugged Wen Chuan, spun half a circle, bowed his head and kissed him.

"It smells so good." Xiang Chen licked the corner of his mouth, not sure if he was talking about porridge or people.

Quiet:"……"

An Jing rolled her eyes, turned around and left, so he didn't want to be forcibly fed dog food.

Wen Chuan pinched Xiang Chen's face, and handed him the bowl: "Drink?"

"Well, hello." Xiang Chen leaned over with a shy face, Wen Chuan didn't bother to pay attention to him, flicked his finger on his forehead, grabbed the pen and computer, turned and left.

Xiang Chen followed, finished the hot porridge in a few sips, wiped his mouth and said, "This is the set of equipment my mother gave you last night?"

Wen Chuan only had a laptop computer with him, and this set of equipment with an electronic pen was given to him by Ji Hongyuan last night.It is said that it has many functions, and it is easy and quick to use. If a hacker is here, he can use this thing to directly connect to other people's networks or devices, and use a pen to change all settings and port connections.

Wen Chuan often has to calculate things, and the parameter formula often needs to be changed, so the pen is more convenient to use.

"I said I want to call Dad." Wen Chuan lowered his head, and several AI robots ran past. Wen Chuan tapped the board twice, and a red light appeared above the robot's head. He came over to kick Xiang Chen with his shins, but Xiang Chen couldn't dodge it no matter what, the AI ​​kept chasing him upstairs.

Wen Chuan couldn't help laughing.

The experiment still needed some equipment. Xiang Kun and Xiang Chen drove out to find a drug store after breakfast; Quietly changed the medicine and accompanied Wen Chuan to simulate the data; Apart from saying a few words, he always doesn't respond to other people, and looks weak, as if he has no interest in many things.

Zhou Chi couldn't help asking: "Your granddaughter, where is Yan Shuyu?"

Yan Huan took off his glasses, wiped them slowly in his hands, and said, "Do you know her?"

"I..." Zhou Chi gritted his teeth and said, "I'm her lover."

"Oh?" Yan Huan looked Zhou Chi up and down and shook his head, "Your genes are mediocre, but Shuyu's genes are very good in Beta."

Zhou Chi has been haggard a lot recently, and his complexion is also bad, with black and blue under his eyes, which is completely different from the sharp and decisive look when Wen Chuan first saw her.She was quite embarrassed, sitting on the ground with her shirt sleeves rolled up, her black hair was cut short by herself, and it hung unevenly on her neck, her beautiful eyes were full of tiredness that could not be shaken off.

Even so, she is still very beautiful. Her beauty is different from Ji Hongyuan's. It is a sharp and gorgeous beauty, like a sharp sword without a sheath.

Zhou Chi's genes weren't bad, otherwise he wouldn't be able to take the position of major general, but in Yan Huan's eyes, that was obviously not the case.

An Jing looked at Wen Chuan's adjustment parameters, and said, "Whether the genes are good or not has nothing to do with character. Major General Zhou is a good person, and he likes Lieutenant Yan very much. I think they are a good match."

Wen Chuan stepped on An Jing's foot under the table, shook his head lightly, and signaled—don't meddle in other people's family affairs.

Yan Huan was noncommittal, and did not answer Zhou Chi's question. Zhou Chi was helpless. This man was Shuyu's own grandfather, and she could do nothing.She had no choice but to comfort herself, Shuyu was in City A, and with her grandfather around, nothing would happen.

In the afternoon, Xiang Kun and Xiang Chen brought back a lot of things for experimentation. They were lucky, and they found a factory specializing in medical equipment. There were many things that hadn't been shipped yet, and they didn't know which one to take. Simply pick and choose and bring them back.

They put the car back on a pallet truck, which was piled with boxes like a hill. On the way back, they also attracted a few zombies, who were shot dead by the rescue team guarding outside.

AI cleaned up the second floor and used it as a temporary laboratory, and Ji Hongyuan installed alarms around it to avoid the danger of drug leakage.A few Alphas helped move things, set up a table with bricks and wooden planks, and finally built a temporary laboratory after a busy afternoon. The air leaked from all sides, the table was crumbling, and the glass bottles on the table were crooked. It can be said to be very simple. .

Wen Chuan connected the computer and connected the electronic pen to act as the "mouse" for control. The electronic pen has a sensor interface at one end. After setting, it can be operated in the void. The contents of the computer and the tablet can be viewed simultaneously Once it is pulled out and spread out, as a simple virtual projection, the screen emits a faint light above the simple operating table, suspended in mid-air, and all the data can be seen clearly.

Wen Chuan quickly clicked and dragged on the screen with the electronic pen, raised his head slightly, revealing a slender and graceful neck.

Xiang Chen sat with his chin propped up and looked at him with a warm smile in his eyes.

Wen Chuan seemed to be aware of it, turned to look at him, the two looked at each other in mid-air, Xiang Chen blew a kiss, Wen Chuan hooked the corner of his mouth and slapped it away with his backhand, quietly and pretentiously covering his eyes, indicating that he was blinded by the flash squinted.

Everyone couldn't laugh or cry, Ji Hongyuan brought Yan Huan over, the old professor became interested in looking at the simple laboratory, stepped forward to look left and right, and looked in front of the suspended light screen for a while, pushed his glasses, and said: "Are you going to Analyzing the retardant together with S11TM203? What are your thoughts?"

"S11TM203 will make zombies ignore the existence of living things," Wen Chuan said, "but if they are injured, it may not be able to prevent the spread of the virus, right?"

The professor raised his eyebrows: "Do you want to try whether the delay agent and S11TM203 can form a new vaccine? S11TM203... the name is too long, so let's call it 'matrix'. After all, the mother's imitation of the same kind refers to the mutation of the virus. The only difference is that it is a camouflage body and will not harm people, but since it can be imitated, it means that there are ingredients to restrain the virus, and with the addition of delaying agents to block it, it may be able to generate new antibodies. This idea is very novel, But I don't think it can be done."

Yan Huan looked at him: "Don't forget, the real virus has damaged human genes and destroyed all immune functions. Its infection speed is too fast for any medicine to work. This is its most powerful part."

"In other words, once a person is infected, the parasite's reproduction speed will quickly occupy the whole body and brain. Eventually, the human being will die and the brain will be controlled by the parasite. Then they will start attacking living things in order to reproduce and suck nutrients."

"I did an experiment before." Wen Chuan pondered for a moment, and said, "People who have been infected first have eggs in their bodies, and then they will grow and reproduce at a very fast speed. The mother can stop the eggs from multiplying." , indicating that the human body with a mother is not suitable for breeding, so the infected person will directly ignore the person with a mother."

"In your experiment, the source of the mother body is Zhong Haosheng, right?" Yan Huan shook his head, looking very patient, as if he was really teaching a student, "The mother body will self-correct and mutate after entering different people's bodies. The matrix in the individual's body will eventually be different, and further replication will be invalid, so... your hypothesis is not valid."

Wen Chuan frowned, held the pen with his finger and quickly swipe a few times in mid-air, pulled a picture full of formulas, and said: "This is all the data of the mother body."

"Yes." Yan Huan nodded.

"I'll just use the original data for simulation," Wen Chuan said, "There's nothing wrong with that?"

"You can try it, but..." Yan Huan smiled gently, almost benevolently, "Where did the other data of your experiment come from? And the comparative data? Without a benchmark value, what are you going to do? "

"What's so difficult about this?" Xiang Kun rolled his arms and said, "Use my blood, I injected the mother's body, and then go outside to dig up some corpses for you, and use them for experiments."

"No, wait," Wen Chuan rubbed his chin, completely immersed in the experiment, staring at the screen, thinking quickly, "I have the data of the infected people that I extracted before, and the data of Zhong Haosheng, plus the data of the mother's body. The data is enough to make a simulator."

Wen Chuan talked to himself, tapped his fingers on his chin, pulled out the keyboard and put the pen in his mouth, as if he couldn't hear the voice of the outside world, tapped the keyboard with his fingers quickly, and quickly set the formula and parameters, and set several comparison values, and finally raised his hand to draw his own blood, put it into a test tube for data testing.

"What are you doing?" Xiang Chen was startled, and hurriedly pressed his arm.

"Mine is healthy blood." Wen Chuan looked at Yan Huan, "This is the benchmark value."

Yan Huan smiled, noncommittal, looked at the fearless and challenging Wen Chuan, nodded and said: "You can try it, I always encourage students to do more experiments, so that true knowledge can come from practice."

Ji Hongyuan glanced at Yan Huan, always feeling uneasy.

He felt that Yan Huan had predicted the result of the experiment.

Most of the people here have been injected with the mother body, and everyone is at a loss as to what side effects that thing has.They don't feel anything on weekdays, just look at Ji Hongyuan and Zhong Haosheng, and they haven't had any adverse reactions after such a long time, as if they were injected with the vaccine itself, so how can there be any side effects?

After all, everyone is holding a little bit of luck in their hearts, maybe this side effect will never appear in a lifetime, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?

Now that Wen Chuan had all the data again, and the old professor actively cooperated with the experiment, everyone felt hopeful for a moment.

After Wen Chuan was put into the experiment, he seldom spoke. He also thought about eating and walking, frowning, holding a board in his hand at all times, and calculating something from time to time.

Xiang Chen couldn't help, so he stayed by his side. When it was late at night, he forcibly hugged Wen Chuan to sleep, rubbed his brows to prevent him from being too stressed, told him some interesting things, and kissed him to sleep.

Time passed quickly for a week, and no one found this construction site, and they hid here very safely.

Every day everyone was rejoicing. Seeing Wen Chuan and the professor staying in the laboratory, they felt that the future was full of hope. Everyone on the construction site laughed frequently; but Wen Chuan's smiles became less and less, often He stared at the screen for hours, didn't move his seat and didn't go to eat. Xiang Chen brought him a meal every day and coaxed him to eat a little.

Xiang Chen knew very well that the experiment process might not be very good.

Wen Chuan rarely had such a depressed moment. He felt uncomfortable after a few mouthfuls of food, waved his hands and stopped eating, and was hugged by Xiang Chen, laying on his shoulder listlessly, staring at the data absently.

Xiang Chen couldn't understand these, he just felt his eyes were blurred, and coaxed his baby: "This thing may be made by a team. It's not shameful for you to deal with a team by yourself. How about I go and fix the Hewei?" All the experts and professors in the meeting will come out, how many will be caught and studied together?"

Wen Chuan heard it funny, patted Xiang Chen on the head, and said, "Look down on me?"

"No," Xiang Chen hurriedly shook his head, kissed the baby's tender lips, bit it reluctantly, and couldn't help prying his lips and teeth to get entangled in them. After kissing enough, he leaned against the other's forehead and said, "I It’s because you’re too stressed and tired.”

Wen Chuan swiped the electronic pen a few times in mid-air, his eyes were deep, and he said slowly: "If I say that there is really no antidote, no vaccine, and no one can be saved, what should I do?"

Xiang Chen didn't speak for a while, seeing Wen Chuan looking lonely, with disappointment and helplessness in his eyes, he said, "You've already got results, haven't you?"

Wen Chuan sighed for a long time: "There is nothing to curb the spread of the virus. Once infected, there is no cure. The only way is to inject the mother. The virus is born to destroy genes, and the mother is born to evolve genes. In other words , the mother is the vaccine."

Xiang Chen looked at him with a straight face, and said word by word: "Humans can't go back?"

"I can't go back." Wen Chuan murmured with reddened eyes, "This plan cannot be stopped from the beginning, and we can only go on following the script written by that group of people."

"What's the script?" Xiang Chen tenderly kissed Wen Chuan's eyelids, wrapped his arms around his waist, and patted him lightly, as if to comfort him.

"Forcing human evolution," Wen Chuan said, "eliminate the weak, evolve the strong, and let human beings enter a new era."

"I can choose not to inject." Xiang Chen said.

Wen Chuan shook his head: "In a short period of time, these viruses cannot be completely eliminated, as long as there are living things, they can be infected infinitely. Do you want to isolate yourself from the world and lock yourself up for the rest of your life?"

Be wary all your life, guarding against all living things, including animals - most of the animals have already been infected, and you can prevent it for a while, but you can't prevent it forever.

And there is no need to worry about injecting the mother, as long as there is no accidental injury, it is impossible to be infected.Even if they are accidentally infected, the eggs cannot reproduce in a body with a mother, and it is much easier to eliminate them.

Xiang Chen frowned: "Then try to analyze the composition of the mother's body so that the eggs cannot reproduce."

"I've tried it," Wen Chuan said. "The mother itself has a part of the virus. Injecting the mother itself is equivalent to having a virus antibody once. The mother will correct itself according to different people and different genes."

Wen Chuan looked at Xiang Chen: "This step is the most important. Everyone's physical condition is different. The key to cracking the virus is to change the human gene. Once the gene is changed, the side effects are unpredictable. Yes, even if you make a brand new antibody, you must follow this principle and change the gene to resist the virus—that is, the eggs. Such a vaccine is no different from the current mother.”

So there is no need for further development.

Previously, Wen Chuan discovered the existence of the maternal body in Zhong Haosheng's body, and this was what he couldn't figure out all the time—using the virus itself as an antibody, the mother's body modifies the genes, thereby making the body immune.

He has always claimed that the "fake vaccine" has unknown side effects, but now he finally understands that it is a real vaccine, and the side effect is to change genes.

He thought there would be other ways, but countless failed attempts told him that the answer to this question was unsolvable.

Viruses born by destroying genes can only be resisted by changing genes.

From the beginning, the road ahead has been paved.

The saying "no vaccine, no cure" is true, and human beings who have been infected can no longer be saved.

If human beings want to avoid this disaster, they must change themselves. They will no longer be "human beings" in the original sense, and they will all become new creatures forced to change their genes.

"What will happen if the gene is changed?" Xiang Chen squeezed Wen Chuan's cold palm and asked.

"I don't know, I can't be sure, and I can't predict it." Wen Chuan said, "Maybe human beings will perish, maybe there will be no newborns in the future, maybe we will become more and more deformed, and maybe we will be infected with terminal diseases that cannot be diagnosed and treated by current medicine. ..."

Wen Chuan rubbed his face wearily: "I don't know."
