Chapter 39: Yang Sheng’s Secret Past (4)

It was such a coincidence that the topic in Ding Yang’s hands rose to the highest level. Mu Lin was also a high-level scholar, so he knew without thinking about it what the significance of this matter was and why it had risen to the highest level.

This was due to the international environment at the time, and every country wanted to have more chips in their hands, including chips related to biology!

Of course, this cannot be discussed in detail on the table, it is enough to understand it. There is always one iron rule in the confidential department: don’t ask too much if you shouldn’t, and don’t say too much if you shouldn’t.

“In fact, there were so many of those terrifying giant lizards in the underground cave that more than just Ding Yang was attacked. Even with the protection of our department, it was the same. In addition to those who were killed and eaten by the lizards on the spot, the department rescued four people in total, including Ding Yang.” Lushan told the story in a light tone.

I was smoking a cigarette, but my mind was full of doubts. I had come into contact with the old village chief, the demon worm, and the purple plant, but I had never found anything contagious about them. Why would the lizard have it? It was really scary to think about. This kind of lizard lives in underground caves and there are quite a lot of them. When one day their numbers reach a certain level, the underground caves can no longer hold them, and they are forced to come to the surface or move through other means. What kind of disaster will they bring?

As if he could see my confusion, Lushan said, “That plan and research were terminated long ago. It was the Taoists, led by your master, who stopped the plan. It is said that they received strong support from the few ‘protectors of the country’ and were able to proceed so smoothly. And the underground lizards should have all disappeared. You should know why they disappeared…” After that, Lushan made two “bang” sounds in his mouth, imitating the sound of something exploding, and then said to me seriously, “There are no aftereffects, not even a single sample was kept.”

Recalling the letter of farewell that Yang Sheng wrote to me, I naturally knew that the meaning of the two ‘boom’ sounds was nothing more than ‘growing mushrooms’ there. At that time, many countries around the world were aware of this commotion and also strengthened their surveillance of that place. Some countries even photographed something very interesting, and then later completely denied it.

Something very interesting. Thinking about the experimental project that Mullin took over, I think Mullin was close to success, but in the end, because of my master and the others’ intervention, the plan was shelved.

“You said that Ding Yang and the others were attacked by four people, so…” I threw away the cigarette butt and asked about what had happened just now.

“Don’t worry, just listen to me…” said Lushan.

“Professor Mu, that’s how it all happened. There were four people attacked at the time. After they were rescued, the other three all developed the same symptoms as the villagers in the local village, and the symptoms of death were the same. All of them died of exhaustion. Only Professor Ding was able to maintain a clear mind, to a certain extent restrain his behavior, and his ability was also better than the other three. You saw that metal wall…” The soldier was still giving Mu Lin a detailed introduction.

Out of habit, Mulin stood up, lit a cigarette in the room, and began to pace around as if no one was there. As a scholar with great achievements in biology and botany, he immediately recognized the difference. The other three people died of exhaustion. showing that the lizard virus can make people delirious, retaining only biological instincts, but the ability to suddenly burst out is just squeezing the potential of life, just like a person’s sudden burst, but if it keeps bursting out like this, it will naturally die of exhaustion.

But Ding Yang is different. His ability reminds him of Ding Yang’s face. Mu Shan frowned. It seems to be related to the most essential thing about the human body—the rapid division of cells. The vitality and energy brought about by that is simply ‘horrible’.

This indicates that something different has happened to Ding Yang. Thinking about this, he looked up at the soldier, who shook his head and said, “Professor Ding has always refused to say what happened to him. It wasn’t until now that he finally agreed to tell you everything, and he also explained that if this experimental subject is established, you will have to take over.”

“Me?” Mu Lin was stunned at first, then relieved. In terms of professional level, he is not much different from Ding Yang. In terms of feelings, they are true comrades-in-arms who have a life-and-death relationship, including Yang Sheng’s parents. The past is like smoke. At that time, several good friends died for many reasons, and the crazy ones went crazy. Only Ding Yang and I are left.

“Okay, I will definitely take over the project. When Ding Yang wakes up, I will talk to him.” Mu Lin said seriously.

The soldier heard this and was relieved. Then his expression became hesitant again, and after thinking for a moment, he said, “Professor Mu, the exploration of that cave was later taken over by our special department, and this led to some other things, but they have nothing to do with your project. I know what I’m saying is redundant, but I have to say that if Professor Ding wakes up later and talks to you about other things or the existence of things, you’d better forget it and pretend you’ve never heard of it.

Mulin was puzzled and asked with raised eyebrows, “Is there anything else?”

“Oh, that’s the subject of several other groups. Some seem to be about ancient witchcraft, or maybe not. I don’t know the details very well. Most of these subjects will be sealed according to convention, so if you hear anything, it’s best to forget it.” The warrior said seriously.

“No problem.” Mullin had no interest in the existence of Taoist priests, who had no rigorous proof of their existence, and he didn’t care at all. He immediately agreed with the soldier.

“Witchcraft, Taoist stuff? How could it appear there?” I was completely confused by this tangled past and looked at Lushan in disbelief.

Lu Shan shrugged his shoulders and said, “This is not something I can know. Up to now, this is the highest level of intimacy. It’s just that it could be about witchcraft or Taoism. Who can be sure? It’s like the computer algorithm can be related to the “Book of Changes.” Even a great man like Sun Simiao, who studied the pulse, would say, “If you don’t know the easy way, you can’t say you’re a doctor.” I can’t explain the magic of witchcraft. Even if I don’t understand it, how can medicine be related to it?”

What does this statement by Lushan mean? I looked at Lushan. He looked innocent, but the meaning of his words also included some of his personal speculations. The things found in the underground cave were very remarkable, or some things from ancient times were only a hair’s breadth away from modern high technology. However, this is not my area of concern. Those things are too far away from me. I just asked, “What’s next? What happened next?”

“Well, the conversation between Mullin and Ding Yang is a secret. Ding Yang, who had come to his senses, was very insistent that only he and Mullin Yangsheng be present at the entire conversation, otherwise he would not say anything.” Lushan said with some helplessness.

If that is the case, the soldier must leave, so there is no detailed action report!

“If that’s the case, would the relevant departments feel at ease with them talking alone?” It seems that Yang Sheng’s past is more complicated than I thought. In that secret conversation, he was the only person who knew.

“No one doubts the loyalty of Mu Lin and Ding Yang, and at that time, you knew that people who knew some extremely confidential things were not free, right?” Lushan said lightly, and some things did not need to be said too clearly. Then he paused for a moment and continued, “Some topics and experiments have proved to be meaningless, and only then have they spread to the public, even if they seem true or false. Because in essence, if they stop, they do not exist, just like today I can talk about these things with you so easily.

“Has it stopped? I don’t think so. Some people never stop.” I was referring to Yang Sheng, of course.

“There are reasons for not stopping. You don’t know what happened next, do you? After the conversation with Ding Yang, Mu Lin took over the experimental project, and Ding Yang committed suicide after that conversation!” Lushan said seriously.

“Suicide? I’m afraid it’s not easy, is it?” I said with confidence, because a being like the old village chief, with its strange life that is a mixture of death and life, even if it harms itself, it will be compensated by its strong vitality.

However, the old village chief was already dead, so what is the point of committing suicide again?

“It’s not easy to commit suicide, and it’s also inconceivable. No one knows how he did it! Wasn’t there a light in that room? But it was at a very high position. According to some confidential documents, Professor Ding Yang committed suicide by electrocution in a certain way. The doubt is that it was so high that even if he stood on the bed, he couldn’t do it. And you know that place has surveillance. It was only when Ding Yang and Mu Lin were talking that the surveillance was turned off for ten minutes at Ding Yang’s strong request.” Lushan simply said.

But I have seen the old village chief with my own eyes. Is the height of the place a problem? Actually, it’s not a problem.
