244 Chapter 244 Corpse Transformation

Wu Xie asked: "Then who kidnapped you?"

She said quietly: "It's "it"."

Wu Xie asked: "What exactly is this "it"?"

Wen Jin took a sip of water, slowly shook his head and said to him: "I can't describe it. This is what we discovered when we were studying the whole thing. How to put it, it can be said to be a "power".

After we survived, we speculated about the whole thing from beginning to end in that dark room. However, there were many links that we could not connect. In the end, we found that in the whole thing, there were many links. The place can be found, one person is missing. "

Wen Jin tucked his hair behind his ears: "In other words, if this thing were to happen, just these few people would definitely not be enough, but this thing happened, as if there was an invisible person filling in these links. Moreover, the more we study, the more we find that this person definitely exists, but so far, he has not revealed any clues, it is almost as if he has no shape, and he only exists logically."

She said sternly: "Let's call this person "it". In addition to Jude Kao, Jie Lianlian, and us, there is another force that is interfering in this matter. This force is buried the deepest, and there are almost no It has never been seen, but its power actually drives things forward, which makes my skin stand on end.”

I especially want to ask, I don’t know what “it” is anymore, and I can’t remember it. However, my face is still controlled by my big hands, and I can only raise my head, and let out a small “Boom” The weird sound of "beep, bam, bam"... I know I won't talk nonsense, I just want to express that I think there is something wrong with this place, and then I turned my head slightly to look at them.

In fact, I know that this "other" force is a big deal for Jiumen and the Zhang family, but I don't know much. But what I know best is that my little brother was deceived by them at that time. It stands to reason that little brother After my brother went to that nursing home, it was only natural that he could think of this. But after so many years, who is in charge of it now?

Wu Xie felt chilled after hearing this, but he didn't quite understand, so he asked Wen Jin, "Can you give an example?"

Wen Jin asked: "Did Jude Kao really decipher the decoding method of the Warring States silk books? Is it possible that a foreigner could decipher such a complicated thing? Moreover, where did he know about the existence of the ancient tombs under the sea? What if If no one had told him this information, he would not have come to China, he would not have bribed your third uncle, and he would not have been still obsessed with a goal that no one knows about. This is the first logical gap."

I heard that what Wen Jin said was similar to what I thought. I nodded slightly while listening.However, we just coincidentally coincide with each other, but this "it" is just like that family member. It either disguises itself or infiltrates into someone else's interior. You don't know who the enemy is and it's hard to guard against it.As for Jude Kao, he hasn't changed in decades. He thinks about immortality all day long and wants the secret core of the Zhang family.

Wen Jin sat up straight, straightened her chest and pulled up her hair, revealing her oval face to Wu Xie and said: "Also, all of us seem to have lost the ability to age. After so many years, we have been Not old.”

Wu Xie was almost stunned when he saw her. Wen Jin's movements must have been so amazing, because he had that expression when he saw the beautiful woman.

Wu Xie was stunned, but Wen Jin immediately let down his hair, shook it and said: "After we were unconscious, someone must have done something to our bodies."

Wu Xie said: "Then this is a good thing. Many people dream of this kind of thing happening!"

Wen Jin shook his head sadly and said: "Dream? Do you still remember that thing you encountered in the basement of Golmud?"

Wu Xie nodded.

Wen Jin said: "That's what we will look like in the end. The one you see is Huo Ling."

Wu Xie was shocked: "What? Is that monster Huo Ling?" He suddenly felt sick when he thought of the forbidden woman.

Wen Jin said: "After she came back from Tamutuo, she began to change and turned into a monster."

Wu Xie was in disbelief: "This..."

Wen Jin looked at Wu Xie, stretched out her hand for him to smell, and said to him: "This youth-preserving effect has side effects."

When Wu Xie smelled it, it was a faint and very familiar fragrance and said: "Jin... the smell of forbidden woman..."

Wen Jin told him: "At a certain time, we will begin to change, and this change has already begun in my body. Soon, I will become exactly like the monster you saw."

Wu Xie asked: "What did it do to you, so that you can't grow old, but it will turn you into that kind of... that kind of... monster?" Wen Jin nodded: "According to my experience, from the body It only takes half a year for it to start changing internally and completely transform into that thing. We call it "corpse transformation".

The first corpse to turn into a corpse was a girl. At that time, we watched her transform into that shape little by little. It was really terrifying. It felt like your body had omitted the step of "death" and directly died. "Living people" become "corpse". "

Wu Xie asked: "But how did this happen? Is there any way to cure it?"

Wen Jin shook his head and said: "The time when "corpse transformation" occurs is completely irregular. The only signal is this smell. We speculate that this strange change may be related to the ancient tomb under Xisha. The first thought at that time was whether This is an ancient disease that has been sealed in this ancient tomb, and we were infected. Later, after research, we found that it was not the case, but this phenomenon must be related to Wang Zanghai."

"Is this why you study Wang Zanghai?"

Wen Jin nodded silently, and told Wu Xie that they had been trapped in the basement of Golmud for a long time, and briefly described how complicated the escape process was.

After escaping, they were chased by a group of strangers at first. They had nowhere to go. After a lot of wandering, they sneaked back into the nursing home, only to find that the building was empty and everything in the nursing home had been emptied. However, they found no information and had no idea who imprisoned them and for what purpose.In order to escape this inexplicable force, they decided to think counter-intuitively and chose this abandoned sanatorium as a hiding place. While investigating the history of Wang Zanghai, they avoided the pursuit of those people.

These are similar to what I had thought about before, and then I heard Wu Xie ask her: "So, do you think there is any way to cure this "corpse transformation" in this ghost place?"

Wen Jin said: "We speculate based on a large number of details that what Wang Zanghai was pursuing was a technique for becoming an immortal recorded in the Warring States silk books. However, it is obvious that the technique he resurrected from the ancient books was not mature. We may become such Experiments on immature things. Although we can stay young forever, the effect is very unstable and we will eventually turn into monsters.

What Wang Zanghai pursued in his life must be the method of perfecting this technology. I think this is his last stop. The records in the Warring States silk books come from here, so this is the most likely place.But on this matter, Huo Ling and I had a disagreement. That time she brought people in here by herself and I chose to wait.I thought she was dead at first, but I didn’t expect that she would come back a few months later. But obviously she didn’t succeed. Her transformation into a corpse had already begun. She became forgetful, lost control of her emotions, and her metabolism was getting faster and faster. , it ended up like that, and I was the only one left in the entire expedition team, waiting for an unknown fate. "

In fact, I want to know what the difference between Wen Jin and Huo Ling is, but Wen Jin didn't say anything. When she said waiting, maybe she felt that the secret here should not be known to many people, and wanted to find other ways to save herself, or maybe She has guessed that the method here may also be imperfect.

She continued: "I originally wanted to hide it all the time, but a month ago, I finally smelled the smell on my body, and knew that my final fate had come, and I had to put an end to it all. Your third uncle, Jude Kao The “it” behind it.”

Wu Xie suddenly asked: "But, what does this have to do with me? Why did you send me the video?"

Wen Jin said sternly: "I was not the one who sent you the video. This is another missing link. I was quite surprised when I saw you appearing in the team, so I asked Dolma to call you too. , from your appearance, I deduced that "it" had infiltrated into my plan, so I issued a warning to you. It sent you the tape that I originally sent to Jude for examination. "

Wen Jin meant that she sent one copy with another Wu Xie crawling on the ground to her brother, one with clues to the bronze door to the fake third uncle Ji Lianlian, and one with Huo Ling combing her hair should be sent to Jude Kao. It did get into Wu Xie's hands inexplicably, and the sender also wrote Zhang Qiling...but who was the one who infiltrated?

Wu Xie asked: "Why did it do this?"

Wen Jin shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe it doesn't want Jude to pass the exam. It hopes to have a relatively simple team composed of Qi Ling, Ji Lian Lian and you. I can only speculate. However, this time Jie Lian used It's a very powerful strategy, and a combination of circumstances made my plan come true. "It" must also be judging which one of these people I am."

I thought, according to Wen Jin's speculation, that "it" did this because it wanted a relatively simple team... I was wondering if it was because of the "Wu Xie" in the video?
Because if that person is the archaeological team member back then, I speculate that it may be the missing person named Qi Yu. Then, although that person is not in the photo, he still went to the undersea tomb, and was eventually taken to Golmud Sanatorium, probably They made an experimental subject, and "it" believed that the person would not grow old after their experiment. The "it" wanted to see if the current mistress of the Wu family was the person in the video.

The so-called pure team means that "it" cares about this person so much, and this person is so mysterious. He cannot be one of theirs. It is in line with what Wen Jin said. It is buried deepest and has almost never been shown, but its Power actually drives the process of things...

Wu Xie rubbed his face, feeling that his thoughts were a little clearer and asked: "Then how much time do you have until you transform into a corpse? Are we still in time?"

She held Wu Xie's hand and said: "Don't worry about me. I'm already here. I accept all arrangements of fate, no matter good or bad. Anyway, this is my end, the end of spiritual awakening, and the end of the chain." At the end of the day, all you have to consider is yourself.”

Maybe I am the only one who knows that this is not the end for me. I heard that I was almost at my destination, and I felt like a big stone was weighing on my heart. It was very uncomfortable.

Although I can’t explain clearly what’s inside, I feel that it’s not necessarily a good thing for me. I don’t know why, but recently I’ve had an inexplicable high fever, my hair has grown strangely, and my forehead has turned red. Hua also feels a little hot, but recently she has not regained any previous memories. She always feels that something is wrong, but she can't explain it. I don't know where to ask my brother.

I looked up at my little brother, feeling that he would...he would...in short, I felt very uneasy.
