I brought bad luck after awakening as a koi

Shen Li is a person with no lofty ideals. He became a biologist only because he is interested in biology and life. He thinks that he is the most boring ordinary person except for his major.

There is no shortage of people like him in this world, but it is people like him who make up the human group.

Without lofty ideals, will not make much contribution, have little hope for the future, but never give up life and hope.

Kong Xiangming was still lying down, he stared at Shen Li, smiled after a while, "It's good, I hope you can keep like this forever."

Of course, there is really no need to continue the discussion on this matter, because they are not out of danger at all. They entered the botanical garden ten years ago. There may be some plant mutations in the botanical garden. The latter was once classified as a forbidden area, and never entered unless necessary.

"What should we do now?" The team leader came over after calling his name, "Should we stay here for the time being or continue walking in?"

The heavy rain is falling, the water is sliding down with mudslides, the rain is fast and fierce, coupled with the strong wind, it is raining heavily outside and it is raining lightly here, they try to stay away from the rain here, they are shivering with cold, everyone Frost started to form all over.

The temperature is more than ten degrees below zero, and it is normal to freeze.

"How many people are missing?" Kong Xiangming sat up, and he asked this question first.

"Five." The team leader replied: "In addition to Lao Sun, we are still missing five people, two in logistics, three in special bureaus, and the doctor was dragged back at the last moment."

Kong Xiangming breathed a sigh of relief, "It's not the worst."

"Then what should we do now? Although we can't go deep here, there is no way to completely avoid the rain. The temperature is too low and everyone's bodies are starting to freeze. Now we have to change out the wet clothes, dry the water and try to let the body recover. temperature, otherwise hypothermia is unavoidable.”

"But we don't know anything about this botanical garden."

"Wait a minute." Shen Li said when they were talking, he turned on his phone and started searching, "I'll check the information here first, and see if I can get in."

The two were stunned, they looked at each other, and then turned their heads to look at Shen Li together.

"Shen Li? Do you have a solution?"

"No way, just judge the probability." Shen Li said: "After the heavy fog, all ecological parks are defined as forbidden areas, and they must not be entered unless necessary, but our biological research area has always believed that precautions should be taken before they happen, so we put these parks in ten years ago The information is collected together, and the information covers all biological species in the park."

"I noticed this park before I set off, and I copied a copy of the information."

Kong Xiangming nodded, "But the information ten years ago is different from the current biological types. They are all mutating. Is it really okay?"

Shen Li didn't even raise his head, he said: "You don't think that the biological research area will only re-detect and classify the current creatures?"

"After collecting biological information, we will try to trace the source and analyze them together with the creatures from ten years ago." Shen Li said: "From this we can also deduce in reverse, the botanical garden ten years ago will now become What type of creature, although this also has a certain degree of deviation."

"Enough!" The team leader hurriedly said, "Analyze first, hurry up, and let's persevere."

Needless to say, Shen Li also knows to be faster. Humans are not machines, and even machines will be slow to move in an ultra-low temperature environment, not to mention that everyone is a flesh and blood person. Shen Li screened and compared plants bit by bit, and made a judge.

Fortunately, this botanical garden is not too big, most of them are endemic species here, and most of them can be contacted in the B27 area.

Finally Shen Li exhaled, "That's it."

"How about it?"

"The probability of being attacked by mutated plants after entering is 40%, the probability of getting through safely and reaching the central safe area is 50%, and there is a 10% probability of accidents. Alien creatures have already invaded here."

"Okay!" The team leader made a decision, "Everyone go inside!"

Sitting here can't solve any problems, and it's just to experience the process of dying slowly. As long as there is a half probability, they can take risks. Their exploration this time is for the future of human beings, to find directions for more people in the unknown, not to die here In a kind of natural disaster.

Kong Xiang cried out, his clothes were a little frozen, he could only rub his arms to make himself look better, and then greeted everyone with the team leader to prepare to go deep.

There was only a [-]% chance of being safe. Kong Xiangming and the team leader were very nervous, but unexpectedly, they walked very smoothly along the way, and soon came to the botanical garden.

But as soon as they stepped in, they saw a very large pool, and there were some lotus flowers blooming in the pool. After Shen Li judged that this lotus was harmless, everyone finally relaxed, sat down on the spot and began to wipe their bodies, and wiped the lotus from before. The stove was taken out, and everyone began to clean up the wet clothes.

They separated, some made sure the surrounding area was safe, and some rested on the spot. After all, this botanical garden was a bit different from what they had imagined.

The main thing is... Are there too few plants?

After looking around for a while, Kong Xiangming suddenly said, "Shen Li, team leader, come and have a look!"

The team leader was right next to him, and he passed quickly, followed by Shen Li. They came to Kong Xiangming's position, and the next moment they saw something, it was some broken tiles and traces of flames, There is also a pot, and there is still a dark brown substance in the pot, and the messy things seem to be brought down after a hasty escape.

"There are traces of someone's life here." Kong Xiangming said while looking at it, "And it's not just here, the traces are even heavier if you go further in."

"There were probably dozens of people who lived here for a while at the time."

"So there are no obstacles on the way here?" The leader said: "What about now? Where did those people go?"

"I don't know, but judging by the situation, it's hard to say. The thickness of the dust means that they have been away for at least two years." Kong Xiangming said: "Leader, I remember you are carrying a flashlight that won't cause plant riots, let's take a look inside. "

The team leader nodded, "Okay, since there are traces of human life, maybe we can find some daily necessities, blankets and towels."

Shen Li had no objection, so the three of them walked in together.

Sure enough, the further you go in, the heavier the breath of human life is, and there are broken daily necessities everywhere, as if the people here are escaping in an emergency. Such a situation makes the team leader and Kong Xiangming frown, because such traces mean that They were attacked, and the attacker was likely to be a vicious and terrifying mutant creature.

What they are most afraid of coming here is to encounter this kind of creature.

At this moment, Shen Li squatted down, he carefully swept away a layer of soil, the next moment a skull appeared in front of them, the skull was human at first glance, and there were teeth marks of some unknown animal on it, Shen Li slightly Frowning, the faces of the other two people present were not good.

They left the skull in place and moved on, and eventually the clutter was gone, but it wasn't much better.

Skeletons and dried black-brown blood were everywhere. This scene of a murder scene lasted for tens of meters. White bones covered the entire pothole. The team leader roughly counted and determined that there were more than 20 skeletons.

"This is, eaten?" Kong Xiangming frowned, "But, there are tooth marks on these bones, it doesn't look like a plant attack."

"If it's a mutated plant attack, it's absolutely impossible for them to live here, maybe it's a wild beast that broke in occasionally." Shen Li deduced, "But..."

"but?"

Shen Li raised his head, he looked at the two people, "The first skeleton we found, the tooth marks on the skull, are a little different from the ones here."

"What's the difference?"

"The size and depth of the teeth." Shen Li tried to express to them in technical terms, and then the two looked at Shen Li with blank eyes, so Shen Li was discouraged, and said in a way they could understand: "This is the difference between two kinds of creatures. Tooth marks."

The two suddenly realized, "So this place has been attacked by two waves of creatures?"

But it can only be said that there is a possibility.

They didn't find any traces of wild creatures, and they could only hope that the beast would leave. Kong Xiangming and the team leader continued to search for thermal supplies among these messy things, while Shen Li returned to the place where the skull was first discovered. The first time I went there, I felt that the soil there was a bit soft, even after two years.

So he dug the soil between the two of them looking for things, and soon he dug out other heads. Although he didn't know how many were still underneath, there were indeed quite a few human bones here.

Shen Li tilted his head, he put the skull back, and then looked for other clues, at this moment, he saw a book half buried in dust in the corner.

Shen Li opened the book, and there were some immature words on it, like something written by a child.

"How is it?" Kong Xiangming walked over, "What did you find?"

"A notebook, maybe a diary." Shen Li said: "Although it sounds a bit routine... how about you?"

Kong Xiangming sighed, "I found some fabric, it's nothing to talk about, let's go back and have a look."

Even in the botanical garden, it was very cold. The team leader measured the temperature, and the temperature hovered around zero. Some people were already drowsy due to hypothermia, and some people kept calling them. Once they fell asleep, they would never wake up. Come on, none of them dare to sleep.

Relying on reminding each other like this, they held on abruptly, and Kong Xiangming and the team leader distributed the found fabrics.

"Persist for one night, when the rain stops at dawn, a rescue team will come, and they will bring enough thermal equipment." The team leader encouraged everyone, "The water will boil soon, everyone will drink some hot water to warm up later .”

Shen Li blinked, "Where did the water come from?"

"The pool next to it." Kong Xiangming gestured to the side, "The pool is running water, connected to the groundwater. It is estimated that the botanical garden was built here for this purpose. I tested it and it is not poisonous."

The lotus bloomed on the pond. Shen Li went over to take a look. The pond was so deep that the bottom could not be seen. The roots of the lotus should be on the wall instead of the bottom, and Shen Li could still see one or two small fish Swimming comfortably, surprisingly non-aggressive.

It is estimated that those who stayed here survived by eating fish and plants in the botanical garden. There were no extremely aggressive plants in this botanical garden, and even most of them could be eaten.

But what were they chasing and killing them all?

Thinking of this, Shen Li returned to the stove and opened the diary.

"This word...was written by a child?" Kong Xiangming leaned over and took a look, "Look, there are still typos here, and he shouldn't be too old."

"Ten years of fog, a child far away from human settlements can still write. This is enough to show that the child's parents are well-learned people and they live a good life, so they have the leisure to teach the child to write." The team leader also said, "What's written on it?"

Because several years have passed, the handwriting on the notebook is a little hard to read, and only a firelight illuminates it. It took Shen Li a long time to recognize what was written.

[My mother gave me a notebook and told me that it was her only treasure. We had a bad life. If you feel sad, you can record what you have encountered. This is a very meaningful thing. After my father passed away Finally, it was the first time I wrote on it because I felt so sad. 】

Kong Xiangming was silent, and he opened his mouth after a while, "During the heavy fog, death was too common. The number of deaths in the past ten years is more than ten times that of the catastrophe of that year."

"Almost no one has a complete family, and everyone has more or less lost at least one family member." The team leader added.

But since this book is here, and there are so many bones in it, there is a high probability that the person who wrote the diary has also...

They didn't want to continue to think about it, so they had to ask Shen Li to continue to look down, hoping to know what happened here. If there were really two attacks, then what was it that came to attack? Is that thing still in the botanical garden?

[Mom said: Dad went to find something to eat, we can all survive when we find something to eat, but I know that Dad is dead, because I heard the uncle next door say what should they do after Dad dies? 】

[They said that my father is the director of this botanical garden. Now that my father is dead, who should take care of this botanical garden. Each of them wants to be the owner of this place. My mother has been hugging me to comfort me after my father died. She did nothing. , just kept crying and crying. 】

Shen Li looked at it for a while, then he found the botanical garden information from ten years ago, and finally found the identity information of the director of the botanical garden.

The head of the garden is a local, a botanist, and his wife is a classmate of his major. She was born late. The little girl was only 5 years old when the fog came, and she just started elementary school. That is to say: the owner of this diary is The daughter of a principal, probably no more than 12 years old at the time.

The team leader frowned and analyzed, "That is to say: this botanical garden can keep so many people because the director of the botanical garden has been maintaining it. I remember that the scale of this botanical garden is not large, and the number of employees should not exceed 20, that is to say: more It is likely that they took in the locals who escaped."

"I think so too, so after the director's death, they are without a leader. After all, plant identification can only be done by him and his wife."

Shen Li looked at the person in the photo, before speaking after a while, "I've seen him before."

"What?" Kong Xiangming looked at Shen Li unexpectedly, "This director?"

"Yes." Shen Li said: "... I participated in some conferences when I was in college. Plants are also a kind of living things. He has been studying how to reproduce endangered plants. I am deeply impressed by the conferences he hosted."

The next time a person who has seen and admired the news turned out to be death, this feeling made Shen Li very uncomfortable. It was difficult for him to describe his feeling, regret?Still sad?

Maybe it's all of them, or maybe it's a specialty of this era... Make people get used to death.

Shen Li continued to read.

[Later they chose a person to be the owner of this place. I don’t like that person because he is scary. My mother said that I must be obedient and must not run around. It would be dangerous without my father’s protection, but my mother is often called by them , Mom said it was because she knew a lot of plants, and she could find edible things like Dad, but I also know a lot of plants, why don't you let me go there?I asked my mother like this, but my mother told me to keep this matter in my stomach, and I must not say it. 】

[I hate that person. He strangled the fish I raised and said he wanted to drink fish soup. I could only hide the small fish quietly. I hid the fish in my mouth, but I accidentally swallowed it. I told my mother about it, and my mother was very scared. She kept asking me to spit out the fish, but the fish couldn’t spit it out, so my mother cried again. I was wrong. I will never put the fish in the next time. mouth. 】

【Will the baby fish grow up in my belly? 】

Very naive words, like she is not a 13-year-old at all, but a 7-year-old child, too immature and naive in thinking, as if she has never experienced suffering.

Kong Xiangming judged that the girl might have some kind of illness, which caused the girl to think too simple, but she had no problems reading and writing. It was very likely that it was a collateral reaction caused by the awakening of genes. There were many such people in the early days of the fog. After all, it was a genetic problem. Common genetic disorders are also common.

It's just that after so many years in the fog, almost all of these people were eliminated in the early stage of the fog, so at this stage only the genetic diseases that will turn into other species are left.

Such a girl can live for so many years, it can only show that her parents love her very much.

"Do you love?" Shen Li looked at the diary, his voice was so small that everyone could hear it except himself.

"However, it can be seen from this that after the accidental death of the director, the botanical garden was taken over by other people. The person who took over may not be so reliable. Then do you think it is possible that these casualties were caused by internal fighting?" The only trace is that wild animals smell the blood coming in."

"It's also possible." The team leader nodded, "But we're only staying for one night. When we have time, we will find someone to test everything here."

Shen Li listened to their discussion, then turned to the next page of the diary.

It is still immature words and immature words, which are full of sudden changes in a child's environment after the death of his father.

[I ate less today. My mother said it was because she couldn’t find anything to eat. I heard them scolding my mother. They said that my mother couldn’t find something to eat and didn’t eat since then, but they can eat It's all my mother's hard work, it's really weird, I'm so angry, but my mother let me be patient. 】

Shen Li continued to turn a page, and then his hands froze.

[I have something growing on my leg, which is very itchy and uncomfortable. It looks like white scales. My father once showed me the body of a fish. There are such scales on the fish. My mother was frightened. She asked me to hold back. , and then pulled out all the scales one by one and threw them away. It hurt so much, but my mother cried and told me not to say anything while crying. 】

[Will I die if I say it out?Just like dad. 】

Fish scales... fish swallowed alive.

genetic disease.
