Don't run, there are monsters everywhere.
Chapter 156 Alien Fantasy
"Immortality? Are there any aliens that can make humans live forever?" Lin Yi and Zhou Kai looked surprised when they heard Zhu Lai's words.
Zhang Cheng, on the other hand, looked disapproving and said casually: "Do you really believe it?"
The ancients pursued immortality, and Zhang Cheng knew this.
However, according to their previous speculation, when aliens existed, there were no humans on the earth. Since there were no humans, how could there be aliens that could make humans live forever?
Of course, they knew too little about aliens. The reason why Zhang Cheng said this was just to deceive Zhu Lai.
The dismissive attitude not only shows that they are not interested in what Chu Lai has to say, but also makes Chu Lai more confident that they can get out of here without relying on others.
"I didn't lie to you," Zhu Lai said.
"In ancient times, there was something strange. It looked like a human and was as white as fat. Its name is 'Huan', which is a living thing." Zhu Lai continued, "These are what I saw in the ancient books at the village chief's house. This kind of alien has the characteristics of It has extremely strong vitality. Once a piece of flesh is cut off from it, a new one will grow immediately.”
"According to records in ancient books, smelling its flavor can make your face glow, eating its flavor can prolong your life, and keeping it with you can lead to longevity."
"This thing..." Zhang Cheng frowned slightly when he heard this.
"Why does it sound familiar?" According to Zhu Lai's description, Zhang Cheng roughly simulated the appearance of this alien in his mind.
After thinking about it, Zhang Cheng suddenly thought of something, which was very similar to the "phantom" in Zhu Lai's mouth.
"Taisui?!" Zhang Cheng exclaimed.
"What is it?" Zhou Kai looked back at Zhang Cheng and said, "Tai Sui? Is it the strange creature picked up by a passerby on the side of the road, brought home to drink, and turned out to be the 'Tai Sui' of a silicone toy?"
"What you saw before were all messy things." Zhang Cheng said.
"Taisui is a creature that has been recorded in many ancient books, such as the 'skin flesh' mentioned in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, and even recorded in Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica."
"Although it is slightly different from what he just said, they both have one thing in common - extremely strong vitality and the effect of immortality." Zhang Cheng touched his chin and seemed to be interested.
"However, I have never believed in such things as immortality."
"You are right, immortality does not exist at all." Zhu Lai's sudden answer surprised Lin Yi and others.
"However, Huanhuan can delay human aging and allow humans to live longer."
As he spoke, Zhu Lai glanced outside the village: "Many of the people in the village have lived for hundreds of years. They have always kept this secret, so they reject outsiders."
"As long as you eat a piece of fantasy meat every once in a while, you can live forever."
"But Huanhuan also needs to eat, so they have to pretend to be enthusiastic to accept outsiders, and then sacrifice the outsiders to Huanhuan."
"You mean, the people in the village can beat this alien?" Lin Yi asked.
This point is crucial. If the people in the village can subdue aliens, it means that their strength cannot be underestimated.
Zhu Lai shook his head and explained: "Huanhuan is a glutton. The more he eats, the faster he grows."
"Huan Huan's vitality is extremely strong. As long as even a little bit of flesh is left behind, it can recover again."
"There is only one way to let this alien species die, and that is for it to starve to death."
According to Zhu Lai, after the queen successfully framed the imperial concubine, her chosen ones chopped off Huanhuan's head and limbs in the name of getting rid of the "evil concubine". They also used special methods to cause Huanhuan's death. The head and limbs could not be recovered.
The Chosen One originally planned to seal the fantasy somewhere and wait for it to starve to death.
However, when the imperial concubine was sent to the underground palace, she sent someone to steal Huanhuan out and took her to the underground palace together.
"This alien is now locked in the main hall of the underground palace."
"You want us to help you destroy this sacrifice?" Lin Yi said.
"Yes." Zhu Lai continued, "Huanhuan cannot eat on his own. He must rely on the villagers to bring food, that is, the humans they brought here, to process them and feed them to Huanhuan."
"In order to prevent Huanhuan from growing too fast, they only feed it once a month. After Huanhuan eats, they will let it fall into a deep sleep."
"How can these villagers make aliens sleep?" Zhang Cheng asked curiously.
"The juice after grinding the moss has the effect of making living creatures lose consciousness." Zhu Lai replied.
Zhang Cheng touched his backpack and thought, these moss actually have the same effect as the fragrance of flowers.
Although the scent of flowers works better, for them moss is more suitable.
After all, if you want to make someone faint with the fragrance of flowers, you must soak the stamens in water to ensure that the other party can drink it.
But this is not the case for these moss. Perhaps it can be equally effective after being dried and ground into powder. There is no need to soak it in water, and the juice can be obtained directly.
Therefore, Zhang Cheng decided to scrape some points from the wall and take them away before leaving, just in case of emergency.
"Wait a minute." Zhou Kai frowned and said, "I have a question."
"Huanhuan doesn't have a head or limbs, so it shouldn't be able to lay eggs, right?"
"So, what happened to those egg fruits we saw before?" Zhou Kai asked.
Lin Yi thought of those things that looked like insect eggs. According to Zhu Lai's description, those egg fruits were definitely not produced by Huanhuan.
"Those 'egg fruits' are indeed insect eggs." Zhu Lai explained, "But don't worry, these insect eggs are edible. They are eggs laid by another alien species, which used to live in the city above."
"This alien species is called 'ground crickets', and it is a very docile alien species."
"Docile alien species?" Lin was stunned for a moment, thinking, are there still docile alien species these days?
Although the mantises around Hua are relatively friendly, they are also for Hua's sake, otherwise they will definitely attack humans.
"This alien species is lazy, not easy to move, less aggressive, and likes dark and humid environments." Zhu Lai continued.
"However, this city once seemed to be dominated by alien species, and humans became food for them." When he said this, Zhu Lai frowned.
"Since the city was built, the village guards would regularly capture some people for sacrifice, but for some reason, the city was suddenly attacked and the entire city was destroyed."
"The villagers were worried about food, so they captured some aliens and kept them in the village."
"Could it be that they kept these aliens in..." Lin Yi seemed to have guessed something.
"In the soil?"
The villagers' daily farming was not to grow crops, but to take care of these aliens buried in the soil.
There is an insect that lives symbiotically with the ground worm, which is the spider that Lin Yi and his friends saw in the fruit.
These insects will not kill people, but they will secrete a hormone that makes the host lazy and makes the host have no interest in anything else except appetite.
Perhaps, this is why the ground worm is more docile than other aliens.
When thinking of this, a guess suddenly popped up in Lin Yi's mind.
If this insect can change the character of the alien, then, could the reason why the city was attacked be to capture this insect?
Make this insect into a specific medicine, then give it to the alien, gradually changing its personality?
