Vol 3 Chapter 280: Lao Xia's Dinner


Although their investigative team seems to have only six people, there are actually many resources that can be used behind them, and many people are providing support for them.
   The news about the big bird was received by Ye Chong, who is in charge of logistics and information support, from his colleagues.
   The news was actually obtained from the Internet. Some tourists took a picture of a "big bird" in the forest not far from the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area this morning and uploaded it to social platforms.
   The relevant information collection mechanism of the secret department of "Shenxing Technology", after analyzing the location, time, and content of the photo, sent it to Ye Chong and the others.
   The photo was actually taken very vaguely, but it was vaguely photographed that a big bird was about to turn over the top of the mountain, but there are more detailed language descriptions on social platforms that can help understand. Just looking at the photos, there is no shock or unusual situation. After all, far away, the visual impact of the big bird's body shape cannot be shown.
   But after Fang Pingfang, Ye Chong and others saw this picture, they quickly judged that the "big bird" on the picture should have a wingspan of more than 3 meters, which is indeed huge, using the comparison reference object next to it.
   Wingspan is more than 3 meters. At first sound, many people may think it is nothing. After all, Anseriformes and Falconiformes have many birds with wingspans of nearly two meters, and there are many large birds with wingspans of more than 3 meters under the Anseriformes and Albatrosses, such as wandering albatross. , The average wingspan is more than three meters, and the largest is 3.7 meters.
   But this is not a beach. Normally, the birds that inhabit and multiply around Wushu Mountain will not have that size. Since "Mr. Liang" temporarily formed their team to investigate this matter, the big bird is naturally the most "conspicuous" target that needs to be investigated.
   On the way to the tourists to capture the location of the big bird, Mi Qiao praised Zhou Rui: "You can actually notice the situation of the ants, this is really amazing!" At least she would not think about it at all.
   Zhou Rui said with some embarrassment: "I usually raise ants by myself, so no matter where I go, I will pay special attention to ants in that place."
   Normally speaking, he would not notice the situation of Wu Shushan's ants. After all, it is winter and the ants hardly move outside. He also felt a bit weird because he saw the big worker ant of the ant species he had been raising, so he went to the bottom. But now that he thinks about it, he has a big question, that is, where is the ant he saw? He even had a doubt whether he saw the ant. Otherwise, according to the location of the ant at the time, he could not find it.
   Because of this, he did not tell Fang Pingfang, Mi Qiao and others about seeing the big worker ant.
"Wu Shushan's ecological estimate has undergone certain changes, which caused the migration of the ant population. However, we only checked a small part of the area, and we can't make judgments rashly. We need to come back and do a more comprehensive investigation. The appearance of the big bird should also be due to the environmental changes in Wu Shushan. It is very likely that some mutations have been caused by this, and it will have such a large body." Fang Pingfang said while thinking.
   Mi Qiao pondered for a while and suggested: "I think if we find the'big bird' first, and have a live sample, it should be more beneficial to our next investigation."
In fact, after she entered the secret department of "Shenxing Technology", she quickly discovered that most people in the secret department did not actually know the existence of "blood-eating creatures". A few people such as Fang Pingfang and Zhou Rui, etc. They only know that what they are investigating and researching are some obviously abnormal events or creatures.
   So even if Fang Pingfang, Zhou Rui, Li Shiying and others are not on the field investigation mission for the first time, their way of thinking is still relatively conservative, and they consider more angles, directions, and possibilities. Unlike her, when he heard Ye Chong talk about the "big bird" and "little bird" last night, he immediately preset his position and regarded the creatures that appeared as "blood-eating creatures."
She felt that if the creature that caused the tourists to fall off the cliff was not a "blood-eating creature", "Mr. Liang" would not temporarily transfer her who was studying in Qicheng City, nor would he let Dr. Fang who is in Antie Township. Come and lead the team.
   Hearing what she said, Fang Pingfang looked over and asked thoughtfully: "When you came, did'Mr. Liang' have any explanation?"
This short-haired girl is a close friend of "Mr. Liang". It is already a well-known thing. Fang Pingfang also inferred from previous conversations that this girl should know a lot of information she doesn't know, at least about the things they are investigating. , Have a deeper or comprehensive understanding, it may be "Mr. Liang" told her.
   "That's not true, I just put forward a little bit of my own thoughts, and finally decided that you should come." Mi Qiao said.
She didn’t know why "Mr. Liang" did not let core researchers and investigators like Fang Pingfang know the situation of the "blood-eating creatures" or what they were investigating and searching for, but she knew that "Liang" "Sir", it must have his intention to do this. Maybe Dr. Fang and Researcher Zhou can use different angles to find more information, such as the cause of mutation of "blood-eating creatures", so she is not good. Speak your own ideas too bluntly.
   Fang Pingfang groaned for a while, and said, "Then let's take a look at the place where the'giant bird of prey' appeared, and then make plans."
Whether it was on the way to Jianzhou City before, in the villa last night, or today in the Wushu Mountain Scenic Area, when discussing giant raptors, weird birds, and ants, Fang Pingfang’s mind will always come up with that rabbit. Wood carvings, caves in the uninhabited area of ​​the Qinling Mountains, and pictures related to the anomalies that occurred in the "Laboratory No. 9"
Just as Mi Qiao felt that "Mr. Liang" would let her join the investigation team to Wu Shushan, there must be a possibility of "blood-eating creatures". Fang Pingfang also believed that "Mr. Liang" would let her bring this investigation team. It should be what happened here, which is related to the wood carving of rabbits and the creatures in the uninhabited area of ​​Qinling Mountains.
   "Dr. Fang, if you want to find that'big bird', do you want to apply for the drone team?" Li Shiying asked.
   "Let's talk about it later." Fang Pingfang said.
   Under normal circumstances, the personnel and equipment they used to enter the Qinling uninhabited area last time are conventional equipment, and are the configuration of the formal investigation team.
   And these six of them are the investigators who collected and confirmed the information in the early stage. Their identities are a little too heavy. Say it is a formal investigation team, the overall configuration and technical support are a bit too casual. It feels that their team was formed by "Mr. Liang" suddenly.
  ……
   Throughout the day today, Xiang Kun and a group of friends have been playing in the scenic spot, visiting various well-known scenic spots, and lunch is also led by You Meng, driving 30 minutes more, and eating in a nearby village.
   It was not until 5 o'clock in the afternoon that they returned to Tongshi Town.
"Lao Ji, how much does Brother Chu give you for a month? When I come back to Tongshi Town for development, how about you come and help me drive?" Before saying goodbye to Ji Hang and Xu Kai, Xiang Kun asked jokingly One sentence.
Although these two people obviously have other tasks when they are drivers, it must be said that both of them are quite competent as drivers. At least they drove very steadily. Basically, there are few sudden braking and rapid acceleration. The anticipation is good, so they sit comfortably. And when dealing with some things, whether it is words or deeds, they are all well-rounded and decent.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiang, President Chu is very good to me, and I am now cooperating with President Chu. If you return to the province to develop in the future, maybe we will have other opportunities for cooperation." Before the separation, Ji Hang also In a more subtle and subtle way, he directly told his true situation, avoiding meeting again in the future, and let Xiang Kun know that he was not the driver hired by Chu Xiuwen, which would be suspicious or unhappy.
   Today is the last day they stay in Tongshi Town. The meal for the evening is still the same as the first day. It was made by Xiang Kun and You Meng, and it was still in the "Youlong Hotel".
   The ingredients needed are all prepared in the morning by someone to help them, so just take them directly at this time.
Because of the enlightenment gained from chatting with Lao Xia this morning, Xiang Kun made some temporary adjustments to the meal at night. He no longer prepared according to the proportions according to the taste of most people, but all the dishes were only around Xia Libing. Human taste.
Basically, no one can detect this adjustment. Even if the same chef is busy in the kitchen under Xiang Kun’s command, he just thinks that Xiang Kun’s food tastes and flavors are a little different tonight, which may be due to Try different production methods and types. After all, the ingredients tonight are mostly different from the ones when they first arrived in Tongshi Town on the night of the 17th. There is no rabbit meat.
   Even Yang Zhen'er and Tang Baona, who are familiar with Xia Libing, saw the dishes served, but when they saw the crispy pork knuckle, they thought they were made for Lao Xia.
Although all dishes are adjusted for the taste of Lao Xia, it does not mean that it is not good for other people. On the whole, it is still very delicious. Even for some people, it may be better than the first night. It's more delicious.
   The only thing that can be noticed is Xia Libing.
During the meal, Xiang Kun’s attention was all on Xia Libing, although the black circle graffiti, lyrics and brush writing were all in her backpack and placed in the hotel room, unable to perform real-time through the two "emotional injection" objects induction. But at this distance, he can also judge Xia Libing's emotional changes through direct sensory information.
   As Xia Libing's eyes narrowed slightly as she took a bite of the food into her mouth, Xiang Kun could be quite sure that she did have obvious emotional changes, and she could not tell whether she was happy or satisfied, or other emotions.
In fact, when he had eaten with Xia Libing many times before, he had already noticed Lao Xia’s weak emotional changes, but he didn’t think it was strange at those times, because Yang Zhen’er, Tang Baona and others were eating together. , The range of emotional changes is much larger, and Lao Xia is still the same as she feels, very calm.
   But then he realized that the emotional changes during the meal were actually not ordinary for Xia Libing.
   You must know that whether Xia Libing played Texas Hold'em with a straight flush, the landlord took a blow, or encountered a physical conflict when encountering a human trafficker, there was no such big change in his physical reaction or emotion.
   Xia Libing told him this morning that he only had dreams related to eating, which is even more explanatory-for Lao Xia, eating is an emotional "switch" that can be touched.
   And at the dinner table, while eating the dishes that were adjusted and cooked on this table specifically for her tastes and preferences, Xia Libing did give an emotional change that Xiang Kun could clearly distinguish.
   After Xiangkun was about to go back, before the blood drinking period, he made a pair of chopsticks and sent it to Xia Libing.
   As for the emotional injection type of chopsticks, he will choose the feeling of anticipation and enjoyment when eating, which is "transformed" from the little chubby girl, and then try to mobilize and trigger Xia Libing's dreams.
Once    can successfully trigger the dream, enter her dream, see what she sees, and feel what she feels, it should help Xiang Kun understand the extremely sensible and indifferent feeling that she felt through Lao Xia before.
   After dinner, Tang Baona originally suggested to play Werewolf. Zhang Qian wanted to continue the 5V5 King of Glory, but Xiang Kun said that Liu Caifu had something to find him and needed to go out. The King of Glory is naturally unable to play. Although Liang Yulong can make up for Xiangkun’s lack, without Xiangkun, You Meng is not sure to bring four novices to fight with Zhang Qian and the others, so ten of them will play Werewolves. kill.
   Xiang Kun said that Liu Caifu was looking for him, naturally, it was just an excuse. His main purpose was to explore the place where the "big bird" appeared before leaving Tongshi Town.
   But before going to Wu Shushan, he and Liu Caifu met in a tea shop in the town. Director Liu really wanted to meet him and talk about the specific cooperation plan they had discussed in Chongyun Village.
   Xiangkun just briefly talked to him about the situation, and asked him to wait and see the effect. The others don’t need to worry. As for the development of Chongyun Village, he has a follow-up investment plan.
   After ten o'clock, Xiang Kun said goodbye to Liu Caifu, drove out of Tongshi Township, and UU read www.uukanshu.com to Wushu Mountain.
   When Miqiao and Fang Pingfang learned from Ye Chong where the "Big Bird" was photographed, Xiang Kun, who had been listening to their conversation, naturally knew the location.
In Xiang Kun’s speculation, the "mutant bird" should be the "mutant ant" that was going to hunt Wu Shushan. If it has been hunted successfully, according to normal understanding, it should leave after a short sleep and mutation. This area is full of human activities.
   But it did not leave, it reappeared in human sight two days later, and was photographed. According to Xiang Kun's judgment, it probably didn't succeed. The "mutant ant" managed to escape, but it didn't give up and was still searching everywhere.
   Same as the night before, Xiang Kun did not drive the car directly to Wushu Mountain Scenic Area. It was still far away, so he found a place to park and then walked in.
   The area where the tourist who came across the big bird and took the picture today is still some distance away from the main peak of Wushu Mountain where the accident occurred on the 18th.
   quickly shuttled through the forest for a while, before Xiang Kun arrived, he discovered the anomaly.
   In the infrared thermal imaging vision mode, in the distant mountains and forests, a group of blue dots is standing quietly among the big trees.
   There is no doubt that it is a mutant creature.
   Xiangkun didn't get close to him immediately because he had discovered other things.
  
   Recommend a martial arts novel "Catch the Sword" with excellent writing.
