Every day is one step closer to reality

Chapter 436 Beetles and the Cycle of Life

On the mountain road far away from the city center, amid the rumble of sports cars.

"Hey, Professor Shen, I'm Feng Yi. I'm disturbing your rest at this time. You haven't slept yet... There is something. I was playing outside with my friends and accidentally caught a beetle. You told me last time It looks very similar to the beetle that hasn't been seen in Ancheng for a long time. I took photos and videos and sent them to you, so you can see if they are right."

About three minutes later, the call came over.

Based on the videos and photos taken by Feng Yi, Professor Shen almost determined the species of the beetle, and his tone was particularly exciting:

"It does look like it in the video! But I have to go and see it in person! Where is it?"

Feng Yi told the location.

Professor Shen is not in Ancheng at the moment. He is still far away and cannot make it. He can only arrive tomorrow at the earliest.

Feng Yi was on the phone with Professor Shen.

Parking area.

Wang Xuqin leaned against a car, lit a cigarette, and remained calm.

Isn't it just playing with beetles? It's a trivial matter. Brother Xu, you haven't seen anything before...

Then I saw Feng Yi grabbing another snake from the grass. It seemed to be some kind of venomous snake, at least it had arms.

Wang Xuqin:! ! !

The cigarette in his mouth was almost frightened.

When you pick up your phone, you go to the security guard, and then you remember that the person holding the snake is the expert.

Feng Yi put his mobile phone in his pocket and used a Bluetooth headset to talk. He had a beetle in one hand and a snake in the other. He turned back to Wang Xuqin, who was smoking a cigarette blankly and said:

"Brother Xu, there is a poisonous snake here. I'll throw it away."

Then he ran away and disappeared from Wang Xuqin's sight.

Wang Xuqin: "..."

If you throw snakes, throw snakes. Don't run so far in the mountains!

When racing, it looked calm and boring, but now here it is jumping around like a monkey!

He put out the cigarette in his mouth and threw it into the trash can. He quickly shouted:

"Watch your step, don't fall!"

Wang Xuqin really couldn't understand that it was enough to just call the people from the property management of the neighboring community to help with this kind of thing. Why do it yourself?

Is it really okay to run out so recklessly without a flashlight when the surroundings are so dark, and the terrain is unknown in a place filled with weeds and woods? !

Worried that something might happen to this important guest, Wang Xuqin hurriedly shouted:

"Hey! Feng Yi! Don't be impulsive. I'll borrow a flashlight for you!"

"Ah? No, no, no, I'm back."

Following the sound, Feng Yi quickly came back from a distance.

The steps are very steady, as if walking on flat ground, and the speed is as fast as the wind.

It’s no exaggeration, this guy can run faster in the grass than a wild dog!

Wang Xuqin was holding his cell phone and preparing to dial: "..."

The thoughts in my heart are so complicated, but I don't know how to express them at this time.

However, Wang Xuqin was indeed relieved to see Feng Yi come back safely.

As Feng Yi approached, Wang Xuqin's eyes swept over Feng Yi's body under the lights of the parking area.

It’s true that the snake is gone, but wasn’t there a beetle in his hand just now?

"Where are the insects you caught just now?" Wang Xuqin asked.

"Let it go. You don't need to keep holding it after taking the photo." Feng Yi said.

While throwing the snake away just now, he took a closer look around and found that there was indeed more than one beetle of the same kind nearby. There was no need to keep the little pitiful one he had caught and released it on the spot.

Professor Shen and his team come here to look for beetles. They will find the target based on its habits and life traces, and by selectively adding some lures. They are more professional.

Wang Xuqin said with unclear meaning: "I don't see that you like beetles."

Feng Yi took out a tissue from the car to wipe his hands. When he heard what the other party said, he explained: "I can't say I like it, because some documents and materials I wrote recently were about this. Professor Shen and other professional big guys sent them to me. I had to read a lot of information before I could recognize it. If it had been there a week ago, I wouldn't have been able to recognize it.

"It's quite interesting to look at the information. Groups such as beetles have existed on the earth for hundreds of millions of years. In order to compete for survival resources, the groups have become entangled and come up with all kinds of weird looks and extreme abilities..."

Feng Yi was completely inspired by this thought.

In order to compete for survival resources, some populations can still survive by rolling around.

And some populations, no matter how they grow, will come to an end due to the shrinking of survival resources.

Wang Xuqin couldn't understand Feng Yi's emotion. He was more concerned about one thing now.

He hesitated and asked: "Will what you are talking about alert the people from the Federal Security Bureau?"

After speaking, he remembered that the person in front of him was an expert from the Federal Security Bureau, and he added: "Those investigators from the Federal Security Bureau and so on."

I'm not afraid, but Wang Xuqin gets annoyed when he sees them.

In the past, some matters in the hotel were targeted by the Federal Security Bureau, and the gang pursued and investigated them like crazy dogs for a long time. After the matter was resolved, he still had a psychological shadow.

If he had a choice, he didn't want to deal with those investigators from the FBI.

"Probably not." Feng Yi said.

As soon as he finished speaking, another call came on the phone.

The caller ID made Feng Yi's brows twitch. He glanced at Wang Xuqin strangely and answered: "Hello, I'm Feng Yi."

Wang Xuqin felt something was wrong as soon as he heard Feng Yi's demeanor. After Feng Yi finished the call, he asked with doubtful eyes.

Feng Yi said: "People from the Ancheng Branch of the Joint Security Bureau."

Wang Xuqin paused, and his tone was surprisingly calm: "Are they coming?"

"No, I'm just asking. You have to wait until the species is determined before you come here to collect information or something. It's okay. Even if they come, they only come here to collect data, collect samples, and upgrade the database."

Wang Xuqin recalled something that made Feng Yi famous.

"When you caught that venomous snake called Xiao Qinglong or something, I heard that there was a lot of noise from the Joint Security Bureau."

"Oh, that time, that time it was because the FBI had an investigation team there, and it also involved first-level protected wild animals. In addition, that incident involved some old cases, so there was a lot of movement. We caught it today The nature of the beetle is different from that incident, but it is about native ecological issues and is in a more positive direction."

Wang Xuqin took a breath and smiled on his face.

That's good.

If the Federal Security Bureau suddenly came out at this time, everyone's interest would be completely wiped out.

According to what Feng Yi said, even if people from the Joint Security Bureau were to come, it would be after the Mingyao event was over.

Feeling relaxed, Wang Xuqin is also willing to chat about this matter.

However, the parking area was really not a good place to chat. When he thought about the snakes not far away, Wang Xuqin couldn't stand still.

Calling Feng Yi, the two of them walked towards the pavilion. Talk while walking.

"In fact, many of the owners of the community next to it don't come here often. Except for occasionally team racing, other times, there are very few human activities nearby. Perhaps it is for these reasons that some small animals come here. It also shows that the Feng Shui here is good. Well!" Wang Xuqin laughed.

"Well, there is such a factor." Feng Yi did not refute.

However, in addition to what Wang Xuqin said, it is also possible that the people who came here to conduct field inspections and sampling may have been cautious in their behavior during the field inspections due to the resident groups and the strengthened security management from time to time, and the sampling range was not large, so they have not been found. .

If Feng Yi hadn't come here tonight while racing and accidentally caught that one, it would have been until the population of that beetle expanded to a certain value before it would have been discovered by researchers.

Thinking of the phone call with Professor Shen, Feng Yi said: "Professor Shen and the others will have a team come tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Wang Xuqin didn't care: "It doesn't matter. We don't have time to 'blow up mountains' here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. We went to the yacht to play. I will ask people to pay attention to it. If I see the research team you mentioned nearby, I will ask them to take them there. Where you catch beetles.”

"Thank you, Brother Xu."

"Little things. Our foundation will also support some scientific research projects related to ecology and environmental protection." Wang Xuqin casually mentioned several projects that the public was not familiar with, but Feng Yi had heard of.

"Good."

Feng Yi looked at the sports car speeding by on the road not far away and said: "Although it is not in the community, it is close. I still want to say it in the group to let the owners here know what to do, so as not to cause some trouble in the future." Unnecessary conflict.”

After all, the people living here are not ordinary. If there are unfamiliar teams within the scope of activities, they will be strictly investigated.

Feng Yi took out his cell phone.

The guests attending their event formed a temporary chat group.

Feng Yi called the owners in the group who had houses here and briefly explained the matter: Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, a professor who studies insects will come here with his team of about five people to look for beetles. Don’t enter the community.

At this time, many guests stopped racing on the road and stopped to rest. When they saw Feng Yi’s message, someone quickly replied:

【Little things】

[Come on, come on, I won’t be here tomorrow or the day after tomorrow anyway. 】

【I object! Unless you lend me the car for fun [laughing evilly]]

Feng Yi: [Come here and drive! 】

The man just now said again: [Forget it for today, after Mingyao’s patting is over, our club will rent a racing track and lend you your car for a test drive. As agreed, don’t hide the car then]

Someone who is not the owner of this community discovered the shocking point:

[If you don’t understand, just ask, aren’t we racing? Feng Yi, why did you catch the bugs? ! 】

[Shocked, aren’t cars fun? I went to play with a beetle! 】

The group started to complain.

Here, Wang Xuqin also talked to Feng Yi about the auction.

"Has Feng Chi told you about the lot?" Wang Xuqin asked.

"About diamonds?" Feng Yi asked.

"Well, it's a rough black diamond. My father bought it in a mine abroad. At that time..."

Wang Xuqin is preparing to tell a story.

Feng Yi's phone rang.

Professor Shen contacted several colleagues because of the beetles, and also let the Ancheng branch of the Federal Security Bureau know, so he called.

At this time, another professor who studies southern ecology called.

After a brief chat, there was another phone call.

Wang Xuqin opened his mouth but closed it again.

It seems that we can't talk anymore today.

Sure enough, after Feng Yi answered another call, he apologized: "They asked me to go back and hold an online meeting."

"It doesn't matter, business matters." Wang Xuqin smiled understandingly.

Feng Yi left a message to Feng Chi and spoke to others in the group.

Then click on the smart watch.

Wang Xuqin looked towards the parking area and had already walked some distance: "Park your car over there..."

A low roaring sound approached.

A car came from the parking area, and upon closer inspection, it was Feng Yi's car.

The car stopped next to it, the door opened, and Feng Yi got into the driver's seat.

"Then, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

Wang Xuqin watched Feng Yi's vehicle go away.

If there were no dazzling eyes, there was no one in the car just now.

At this time, someone came from the parking area. It was a friend who was very close to Wang Xuqin.

"Wow, Feng Yi's car ran out on its own! We just parked the car in the parking area and were looking at his car when the car moved on its own!"

Autonomous driving is not a new thing, and smart driving is not a new trick either. It’s just that they were completely unprepared just now, and they were taken aback.

The man walked up to Wang Xuqin and asked, "Brother Xu, what were you and Feng Yi talking about in private before? We talked for so long and discussed hundreds of millions of dollars in business?"

Wang Xuqin looked complicated: "Talk about beetles and the cycle of life."

That person:? ? ?

Is this a new car model and industry slang?

On the other side, back to the hotel.

Feng Yi opened the relatively hidden storage slot and took out a bag of Xiao Bing's special brain supplement.
