Grandpa Ye looked a little tired for a moment.

"Everyone is young."

The old man picked up the water glass, took a sip of water, calmed himself down, and then slowly said: "When I was young, I felt that I was omnipotent. If I wanted to do something worthy of my ancestors and be admired by future generations, then what is better? Can the project of studying the awakening gene change mankind and create a greater new era for mankind?"

"I can't help but be addicted to it, too."

Zhou saw Pu frowned slightly, and he tentatively said, "But I heard from Shi Qing that although you are very interested in awakened people, you have not participated in the research of government departments, and you usually see doctors for ordinary people..."

"One is that the old man is getting old, and those young people don't want anything to happen to me, and the other..."

Grandpa Ye's expression was a little gloomy, "Why do you think Xiaoqing's parents and his grandma died?"

"A car accident?"

"Yeah, the car accident, any investigation is fine, but I found out later that after Xiaoqing's car accident, Baibai also died."

Zhou saw Pu's thoughts changed sharply: "Is it because of the alienation and regression phenomenon that Mr. Zheng studied?"

Mr. Ye looked Zhou Jianpu up and down: "Young man, you know a lot."

"Because I seriously want to be with Shi Qing, naturally I have to thoroughly investigate his problems."

"...The way you look reminds me of an old friend in the past who investigated his wife in the same way."

Seeing Pu, Zhou suddenly felt ominous, and counted the age of Mr. Ye... only ten years younger than Mr. Zhou, do they know each other?

He quickly changed the subject: "Mr. Zheng's research is very meaningful, but since he has entered a dead end, how could he...?"

Old Master Ye said slowly: "Young student, have you heard of the Neverwinter event that the Arctic Ocean was completely unsealed more than 30 years ago?"

Seeing that Pu was stunned, Zhou quickly recalled the relevant information: "I heard that with the increasing frequency of extreme weather, the global temperature has soared, and even the temperature at the north and south poles has begun to rise to [-] to [-] degrees, resulting in the incorporation of huge icebergs. Into the global oceans, bringing a series of problems such as rising sea levels..."

"The North Pole is different from the South Pole. It is an ice sheet floating in the North Pole, with seawater underneath. In that year, the overall global temperature was above 20 degrees, and even the Arctic region in winter had a high temperature of more than [-] degrees. The sea ice is melting, even exposing the ice at the poles."

Mr. Ye said slowly: "For this reason, the countries close to the poles in the northern hemisphere organized a joint scientific expedition."

Those ice sheets that have existed for tens of thousands or even tens of millions of years may contain ancient bacteria and viruses that endanger human health. If they enter the world directly with the water flow, it is unknown what kind of mutations will be caused.

“On top of that, due to Arctic ice loss, trade is booming in the polar shipping lanes, which are the closest routes from Asia to the Americas.”

You only need to cross the North Pole to reach the opposite continent, which is much better than crossing the Pacific Ocean.

Zhou Jianpu smiled: "It is said that it is for global human safety, but in fact, it still pays more attention to the benefits brought about by the melting of ice."

"Yes, but no matter what, the Arctic scientific expedition team in the year of Neverwinter brought back two important news. One is that the Arctic ice cap is not permanently gone. If the temperature drops, it will continue to be frozen. Another news But... they found the remains of many ancient creatures in the ice."

Mr. Ye's expression became serious, "If these wreckages are thoroughly studied, the global biological and genetic research will definitely enter a new realm."

When Zhou Jianpu heard this, his expression changed slightly.

"But no one expected that after those wreckages were taken out, they were all turned into dross and turned into viscous mutant energy in the air."

Mr. Ye said in a strange tone, "It's as if someone cast a spell on the wreckage..."

"Make them something else."

Zhou saw Park answer subconsciously, isn't this the application of refactoring and transformation in Mr. Zhou's way of Taiyu?

Mr. Ye fell into silence, he looked at Zhou Jianpu strangely.

Zhou saw that Park calmly let the old man watch.

Grandpa Ye got up suddenly, walked to the cabinet next to the desk, and took out a box.

He handed the box to Zhou Jianpu and said with a smile, "Look."

Zhou Jianpu opened the box and took a look, his eyes went dark.

Inside were a few handwritten receipts, which said that a person surnamed Zhou owed Mr. Ye some valuable medicinal materials, money, pills, etc., and there was even a photo of Zhou Jianpu carrying a schoolbag to school when he was 12 years old.

On the back of the photo, Mr. Zhou wrote, old man, the debt I owe you will be inherited by this boy. If this boy is incapable, you can go to my boss. If the boss is bad, you can go to Xiao Mengxian again. Anyway, don’t come here Me, you can't find me either.

Zhou Jianpu closed the lid with a smile on his face, and said calmly: "This is really a wonderful person."

Mr. Ye carefully looked at the photo, then looked at Zhou Jianpu, and muttered: "I always feel a bit like you, but this kid is still a human being, and you are not human at all."

Zhou saw Pu calm and composed: "There are many wonders in the world, maybe he was born with a child who looks similar to me." He also asked Mr. Ye, "What's his name? Maybe I can look for it."

Mr. Ye shook his head: "This old man does have the same surname as you, but as far as I know, all his descendants have changed their surnames to avoid disasters, so it should have nothing to do with you."

Zhou Jianpu admired: "It seems that Mr. Zhou has done a lot of unspeakable things."

I was relieved.

Mr. Ye followed suit: "Yes, he also went to the Arctic expedition in Neverwinter Years, but he was in a very bad state after he came back, and he came to me for recuperation for a while. Some indescribable changes made me interested in this matter..."

"Oh, far away, although most of the wreckage has disappeared, the expedition team did not return empty-handed. They collected a lot of frozen ancient bacteria and viruses, and also collected one or two remaining wreckage."

Mr. Ye seemed to realize that he had diverted the topic because of his old friend, so he stopped talking about [old friend] and continued talking about Zheng Bainian instead.

"As one of the few botanists in China for a hundred years, he was called to do research as soon as the things were brought back to China."

"Baibai's grandma and Xiaoqing's mother are neighbors. Bainian and Xiaoqing's mother even went to school together when they were young. Later, after Xiaoqing's mother and Xiaoqing's father got together, they invited Baibai to attend the wedding. Later, Shiqing He was born, and he also attended the Full Moon Banquet and the Hundred Days Banquet."

"He talked with Xiaoqing's mother about the growth and variation of plants in the future, and he also talked with me about the development of Chinese herbal medicine. He said that he has obtained definite evidence that although organisms will evolve, if the environment allows, they will also evolve to a certain extent. Return to a life form more suitable for the current environment."

"Plants and humans are different. Humans are conscious, plants...even some animals only have this way of existence, but they don't have consciousness, so their lives are reversible."

Old Master Ye's expression became more serious, "If there are human beings who can evolve to this level, then they will gain eternal life."

"But it's almost impossible and unrealistic."

Mr. Ye's voice changed, "If a person dies, his consciousness will disappear. Even if the body has the characteristics of being alive again, will the person who wakes up be the same person who died? No one can say for sure."

"I think this research is unrealistic and does not conform to the moral culture of the society. For me, the fundamental reason for studying plant changes is to use their medicinal properties to treat human diseases. Alienation is also a kind of disease."

"However, for a hundred years, I feel that if life is reversible, alienation is naturally reversible. As long as alienation is mastered, then human beings will have the power similar to the gods in myths and novels. Human beings will be able to go to heaven and earth by their own alienation, and even set foot in the universe."

"I was very interested in Arctic exploration because of Brother Zhou, so I often talked to Bainian about it. At the beginning of Bainian, I could often go home and have dinner with us, but then I hardly found anyone."

When Mr. Ye said this, his expression was not very good.

"That day was really no different from usual. Our family was planning to go to a hot spring hotel for vacation. Before we left, we saw Hundred Years, whom we hadn't seen for a long time. He said he came back to visit his parents, so he stopped by to talk to me about something."

"When he saw Xiao Qing, who was three or four years old, he stepped forward to hug him and touched his head, and then he told me that his research had reached a dead end, because no matter whether it was forward or backward, he needed a cycle, the cycle between man and nature.”

Old Man Ye smiled wryly and said, "Now that I think about it, although I went home to visit my parents for a hundred years, he actually came to see me secretly. He left in a hurry after saying this."

"I was already in the car, but there happened to be an emergency room, and the person was very anxious. I heard them describe the symptoms. If the injection is not given quickly, it will cause serious sequelae to the patient... I asked Xiaoqing's parents and his grandmother to go first. The hotel, I'm going to the emergency room, and I'll meet them at night..."

The following story is probably as described in the file. Ye Shiqing's parents and grandmother died on the spot. Because Ye Shiqing was too young, he was hugged tightly by his mother and saved his life.

"After I received the news of the car accident, I hurried to the hospital where Shi Qing was."

A gleam of coldness flashed in Mrs. Ye's eyes, "Thinking about it now, the hotel we booked was a country hot spring hotel in a mountainous area. The car accident happened on a highway that didn't lead to the village or back. The ambulance pulled Shi Qing into a nearby county town. The hospital, the facilities and medical strength of the hospital are too strong."

Zhou Jianpu's face changed slightly: "You mean, someone took Shi Qing away for an examination?"

Mr. Ye shook his head: "I don't know. I was in a daze at the time. I didn't wake up until they told me that Shi Qing was rescued, but he might not live to be 20 years old and was bedridden for years."

In any case, he still has a relative alive, and his grandson is so young, he has to cheer up.

"I read Shi Qing's medical files. In order to save him, the doctor used many antibiotics and specific drugs that are difficult to obtain in large hospitals. The doctor said that their county hospital just applied for a batch of drugs, which were originally used as a reserve. Yes, it happened to happen to my grandson, although I thought it was strange, but at that time I was only concerned about being lucky, so I quickly took my grandson home and started to customize a recuperation plan for him."

When Mr. Ye said this, he took a deep breath and said slowly: "But as Xiaoqing recovered slowly, I discovered the changes in his body."

It was as if someone planted a seed and awakened the survival genes in Ye Shiqing's body.

"Similar to the unopened state of heaven and earth, chaotic and ignorant, sometimes the breath is weak, sometimes full of vitality, it will be alive but not alive, and it will be dead but not dead."

Grandpa Ye suddenly thought of the theory that Zheng Bainian had told him.

Mr. Ye said: "The alienation of the awakened person is actually an unstable structure formed by the genes stimulated by the outside world. Shi Qing's situation at that time was very similar to the alienation of the awakened person. The characteristics of life are unstable, and sometimes they live and sometimes die. state, then can I use the method of solving alienation to transform Shi Qing's life body into a state of harmony with the nature of heaven and earth?"

Zhou Jianpu felt that the key point was still missing: "But Zheng Bainian failed."

"Because the human body lives in a natural environment, it is meaningless to simply cultivate it in a laboratory petri dish."

Mr. Ye replied: "Chinese herbal medicine, I use countless variations of Chinese herbal medicine to form a complex but unified whole, and Shi Qing's life is soaked in this whole, creating a cycle of life and energy with these herbs, combined with my acupuncture method , It wasn’t until the year of his college entrance examination that the construction was finally completed.”

"After that, he doesn't need to drink any more medicine, because he has reached harmony with the nature of the world that caused the mutation of the herb, like a key, and like a zipper, he has become a paired existence with nature."

When Zhou Jianpu heard the name "Key", his body trembled slightly.

Whether it's Amit's experimental supervisor or Ye Shiqing's grandfather, they all unanimously call this phenomenon of alienation and invalidation the key. It can only be said that the research to a certain extent leads to the same goal.

"So that's the case... It's different from what I speculated, but overall it's good."

Zhou saw that there was joy and a bright smile on Park's face.

"You asked me why I like Shi Qing before. The answer is that simple. He is my key. My alienation and loss of control will be invalid in front of him. In my opinion, he is an extremely conspicuous touch of green in the desert planet. Yes. The only oasis in the desert of my heart."

Old Man Ye sneered: "In other words, if Shi Qing didn't have such a physique, you wouldn't bother him at all."

Zhou Jianpu said calmly: "But everything in the world is unpredictable because there are no ifs."

What if Yi Dien hadn't pushed Zhou Jianpu out of the car back then?

What if Mr. Zhou hadn't passed by that grove back then?

What if the old man didn't go to America or meet Yi Deen during the civil war between the North and the South?

in case……

The most wonderful and incredible thing about life is that there is no if and no turning back.

"America has a key similar to Shi Qing. If such a key is passed on, it will be watched by many awakened people, but fortunately, once paired, the key will not work for the second awakened person. "

Zhou Jianpu's voice was very calm, like the calm sea, no one knew how terrifying energy was hidden below.

"Perhaps both my life and his life had a lot of mistakes at the beginning, as well as all kinds of flaws and bad things, but if the past suffering can be exchanged for the present happiness, I think it's all worth it."

All the choices, whether accidental or inevitable, created Ye Shiqing and Zhou Jianpu today.

And they met, in their best and most suitable time.

"It is precisely because I have experienced heart-piercing pain and unwillingness, and I have regrets in my heart, that I will cherish everything now and will do whatever it takes to protect the happiness I have obtained."
