Chapter 343 The Key
His friend said: "God and genes do not conflict, God is my belief, and genes are my approach to faith." Immediately afterwards, his friend said: "However, I can answer the first two questions. Tell you what I think. The first is the resurrection of the dead, for example: leech, if you cut it in half, it will become two new lives, if you cut it into four, it will become four A new life, this is called division resurrection; there is also a kind of moth, they have 'resurrection hormone', after death, as long as the corpse can be preserved for one year, then in the second year, resurrection hormone will make their cells come back to life, and then the whole But it is a pity that once they die, most of the corpses cannot be preserved, so it is rare now, and it is often only seen near snow mountains, because snow mountains can preserve their corpses. Since leeches can split, moths can be resurrected , why can’t humans have resurrection genes?”

Lu Su said: "Because it is locked."

"Yes, human beings, or every life, is very great, but every life has a lock, and God locked it."

Lu Su smiled slightly: "Now you are arguing with God again."

"What God allows to exist is God's will. Genetics is the opportunity God gave to human beings, and I will follow God's will." Tofu came downstairs again at some time, and estimated that he had listened for a while, and said, "You A friend is not like a science guy, but a magician."

Lu Su still smiled, and said to Tofu: "Your sense is very keen. He usually works in the research institute and goes to church on Saturdays and Sundays. He is a very interesting person. I will introduce you to him when I have the opportunity."

Tofu curled his lips, rubbed his stomach and said, "I came down to tell you that I'm hungry." I looked at my watch, and before I knew it, it was already around seven o'clock in the evening. Lu Su had no intention of leaving. Of course, If this matter is not cleared up, I will not let him go, not to mention that I am in a hurry now.

Tofu said: "Old Chen, what's for dinner? Why don't you eat hot pot? There's a very beautiful girl from the hot pot restaurant over there..." I took out 20 yuan from my wallet and said, "I'm not free today, go to Buy four servings of instant noodles."

"Instant noodles?"

"Instant noodles!"

"Eating instant noodles is not nutritious..."

"You're so fat, what do you need nutrition for?"

I ate too much tofu during my illness, and my face became fatter. Yesterday, I was surrounded by female customers and teased me: "Chubby little brother, so cute."

Tofu was very shocked, and secretly muttered: I really don't appreciate it, your boyfriend is the little brother, and my brother is big.

So when I said this, the tofu was scared, and I bought four boxes of instant noodles. Several people closed the store and ate them, and soaked the unfinished food in the soup to solve it.

After eating and drinking, Lu Su stretched his waist and said, "It's a little late, I won't go back today, I don't know if it's convenient for me to stay here for one night."

I said to myself: You haven't explained anything clearly, even if you want to leave, I can't let you go, so I turned off the lights on the front of the first floor, and everyone went to the residence on the second floor, Cyclops consciously retreated to his room.

Only me, Tofu, and Lu Su were left in the living room. Lu Su looked at the room in a calm manner, and then looked at a landscape painting on the wall. His eyes lit up and he said, "This It's that XX lake."

Tofu was a little proud, and said: "You have vision, I painted it." The painting is a lake, the lake is located between the green hills, the surrounding reeds are blowing with the wind, and the setting sun dyes the reeds and the lake surface into golden yellow.

This is the scene at the entrance of Princess Gegeer's tomb. Tofu's painting skills are still good. This is a series of pictures he painted, and there is a cute painting next to it. It shows a big whale. A group of people sat facing the rising sun towards a small island on the horizon.

From this painting, we can see that Tofu's world view is positive and optimistic.

Lu Su praised it greatly, the tofu didn't look so ugly after being held in such a handful, and I didn't say anything beside me, knowing that after a while, this kid would probably be coaxed by Lu Su again.

After a while, we didn't turn to the topic until the image of Lu Su changed from a heinous tomb robber to a cultural person with a very high level of art appreciation.

After answering Lu Su's two questions, that friend began to answer the third question, which was supernatural powers.The so-called special functions are things that normal people cannot do. The most typical one is to move objects out of thin air. For example, if you put a ping pong ball in front of your eyes, you cannot move it to a predetermined position without touching it or using external force. In the special function, there is the movement of ideas imagined by people, that is, using people's ideas to make objects move in the way they want.

His friend said: "In fact, this has already been achieved."

Lu Su was surprised and said, "It's done? What do you mean?"

"A research institute we cooperate with has already researched a method of moving objects by amplifying human brain waves. Of course, this amplification is still very weak, so at most it can move a piece of paper or a ping pong ball. This shows that, People can do it, it's just this ability..."

Lu Su answered, "... locked up by your God."

"Yes."

The conversation ended here, and Lu Su suddenly solved a secret that had been puzzled for many years, which was what Zhuan Donglai's other self said to him: I am you, you are me, and my power is your power, but you A key is needed to open it, and that's the exchange.

What the seven lamps can bring to people is not objective things, but a power to open the lock of the human body.Then, the one who talked to Zhuan Donglai was indeed himself, another locked up self.

When I heard this, my mouth felt dry, and I didn't know what to say for a while.Lu Su smiled slightly and said: "This is just my own thought. Maybe the seven lamps really have that kind of power, maybe they are really just a key. After using this key, no matter what we get, it is our own." For myself. But these are not important now, what I want is a method of making this key."

Tofu asked in surprise, "How to make the key?"

Lu Su nodded, smiled and said, "I don't want to pay the price, I just want the key."

Tofu said: "This is why you are looking for Lao Chen? But you want the key, why are you looking for him? Also, I still don't understand, what you mean is that the lamp is the key to unlock the human body's potential, so what did Mr. Chen do?" thing?"

Lu Su smiled helplessly and said, "He made us very embarrassed."

When Lu Su and Zhuan Donglai had a conversation, Ah Hai had been waiting by the coffin. At this time, he had already collected the secretions of the Gu insects and was carefully wrapping them up.Neither of them noticed that Chen Siyuan, who was dead beside him... stood up.Without making a sound, he walked up behind Ah Hai, and put his bloody hand on Ah Hai's shoulder.

Ah Hai turned his head, and the moment he saw the person coming, he let out a scream, but immediately after that, his whole body twitched suddenly, because the Gu worm had attacked, almost instantly, Ah Hai died, and his body lay on the coffin.

At the same time, Grandpa began to attack Lu Su and the two of them. The ghost king Chen Siyuan completely disregarded the consequences and did not fear death. The attack was very terrifying. Rao Lu Su and Zhuan Donglai couldn't resist it, so they had to be embarrassed escape.

Chen Siyuan didn't catch up. He closed the door of the main tomb. After a while, Lu Su heard a scream from behind the door.

The voice came from Chen Siyuan, but no one knew why there was such a voice.

Only three people could get out alive, and Chen Siyuan was no longer human.Therefore, it was Lord Bai, Zhuan Donglai and Lu Su who finally left the Yashan Palace and the Digui King's tomb alive.

Tofu and I looked at each other, and after listening to Lu Su's words, more doubts swirled in my heart: Is what this person said true or false?Could it be that grandpa has also become an evil corpse like Xiao Jing, or a living corpse?

I thought of something wrong. If no one took away the contents of the coffin, why were there only five of the six lamps when we opened the coffin?
I asked this question out.

But Lu Su asked back: "Are you sure there are only five lamps in the main tomb?" He was talking about the main tomb, not the coffin, and the concept is different.I immediately understood that he was implying that one of our group was wearing that lamp.

Before that, none of our group had opened the coffin, so it goes without saying who the suspect is: Grandpa.

Combined with the series of things that Lu Su said before, I immediately understood what he meant: Grandpa finally took out the corpse lamp, so he was resurrected.

But why can grandpa stand up again after death?
Grandpa once said that he promised another self, so is this an 'exchange'?
Lu Su smiled and said, "That's why I said that your grandfather is the only one who has benefited. At least, he used that key to open his own lock, while the rest of us got nothing."
