Chapter 233: Evolution, spores, historical necessity.

At the dawn of the morning, all the aliens are still awake, and they are all sleeping in a heap.

"Bai Anyi" has had three hours to materialize after taking care of the two catfish that were trying to kill them.

In the early morning, the forest is full of fog, the air is like milk, the milky fog is so thick and creamy that you can guide it with your fingertips.

"Bai Anyi is on the roof of the hut, watching the squirrels hopping on the tips of the trees.

Within a few moments, a man silently settled beside him.

There are not many people who can do this, not to mention the fact that Bai Anyi is in a state of total alert, so Bai Anyi's nausea is far greater than his intention to kill.

In Bai Anyi's memory, this man was not one of the escaped aliens.

The good thing is that the person who came is not aggressive in appearance and temperament, and looks very weak, holding down the left side of his chest with one hand, the color of his lips is pale white, and there are traces that make "Bai Anyi" can not help but think of a person.

He tentatively called, "...... Chi Jiangyu?"

The visitor nodded slightly, "Yes. There is something I would like to talk to you about."

"Bai Anyi" folded his long legs and looked at him curiously, "Do you actually look like this?"

"What's wrong?"

"Bai Anyi" smiled, "OK, Chi Xiaochi is not bad, quite a match. It's a good match. A good-looking man."

"Thanks." Lou Ying pursed her lips, "I came, just to talk to you about him."

Lou Ying's data body had not yet been fully repaired, and it would inevitably take energy to transform into a solid body again, so he could not hide his weakness when he spoke.

But he still felt the need to come here, "I'd like you to apologize to Xiaochi."

"Bai Anyi" is also a smart person, dropping his eyelids, rolling his eyes twice, he realized: "Because I said he was cold-blooded at the pond? You heard that?"

Lou Ying nodded.

"Bai Anyi" said, "I was comforting him."

Lou Ying loses his smile, "There is such comfort?"

"Bai Anyi" says with assurance, "There is such comfort."

Lou Ying stopped talking, waiting for his explanation.

"Do you know what the most painful thing about being a human being is?" "Bai Anyi" put up two fingers, "Two things: wanting to be bad, but with good intentions; wanting to be good, but with selfish thoughts."

"When you don't touch either end, it's not others who suffer, it's yourself." "Bai Anyi" said, "cold-blooded people, will not worry about the necessary losses, and will not feel bad for not doing their best. At the time, I ......"

Lou Ying doesn't say anything, just looks at him.

"Bai Anyi", who had also figured him out in his silence, did not explain further: "Yes, I was wrong. I'll talk to him."

Lou Ying said politely, "Thank you."

"Bai Anyi was clear: "There's nothing to be thankful for. I've been tied to Bai ever since I became conscious. I don't need to get along with others, nor have I ever considered getting along with anyone else. You two, are the only two people I talk to the most besides him. I also have to thank you for pointing out my problems, otherwise, if I regret it in the future, I don't know where to find you guys."

Lou Ying came out, originally wanting to ask "Bai Anyi" to apologize to Chi Xiaochi for what he had said, but after listening to "Bai Anyi", he was no longer in a hurry to go back: "What are you going to do with him in the future? However, after listening to "Bai Anyi", he was no longer in a hurry to go back: "In the future, what do you and he plan to do?"

"Ah ...... yes, your mission is complete, and it's time to go when you've accumulated enough of that 'remorse value'."

"Bai Anyi" nodded, and briefly made an arrangement for our future life: "Even if we escape, there is no way for us to stay in our own country, the most probable way is to borrow the road that you have paved, and use the footage from Battle Royale to apply for political asylum abroad, to a country that is more tolerant of psychics, and then let Xiaobai do something he likes. After landing on our feet, we can then let Xiao Bai do something he likes."

"Bai Anyi's words were mostly calm and sober, with little of the heat of the earth.

But Lou Ying had read his memories and knew what he looked like in front of the real Bai Anyi.

Gentleness, patience, a sense of proportion, and knowing what to say and what not to say.

That can't be faked.

"Bai Anyi knows what's best, he just doesn't have the patience for others.

Lou Ying asked, "What about you?"

"Me?" "Bai Anyi" said, "I can kill for him, or I can not kill for him. A heart is so small, and it grows on him, so of course wherever he goes, I go."

As he said that, he became a bit despondent, "However, I killed someone in front of him, and I don't know what he'll think of me."

Lou Ying : "I've read some psychology related books and it says that most of the dual personalities are born because of some kind of spiritual need of the main personality."

"Bai Anyi": "So?"

Lou Ying : "So, you are the person he subconsciously wishes to exist. You have the ability, but you didn't kill indiscriminately, that alone is good enough."

"Bai Anyi" looked at him, "Thank you. You're very comforting."

Lou Ying was about to answer, when he suddenly looked puzzled, hastily said he was sorry, and his figure dissolved in the morning mist.

Chi Xiaochi was already gargling with the rainwater he had received last night when his main consciousness returned to Chi Xiaochi's body.

Lou Ying did a rough calculation of the time.

The group landed at the hut at 1:00 a.m. Chi Xiaochi went to bed at 2:30, woke up once at 4:30, and it's now just a little before 6:00 a.m.

...... He had less than four hours of full sleep.

Lou Ying was a bit distressed, "Why don't you sleep some more?"

Chi Xiaochi says, "Been awake for a while. The stock market opened and is currently in the red."

While others did not understand what he was talking about, Lou Ying naturally did.

He looked at the progress value and was surprised, "78 points? Jiao Qingguang's remorse value is moving so fast?"

"Saw the news." Chi Xiaochi said, "...... He got up pretty early."

His ex-boyfriend, who was sent to prison by his own hand, has become a wanted criminal who led seventy-six psychics to escape from prison overnight, and there are unusual deaths in many places, so if you put these two things together and think about it a little bit, it would be strange if Jiao Qingguang doesn't get goosebumps.

"We still have the Instant Transfer Card." Lou Ying suggested, "There aren't that many pairs of eyes watching right now, so why don't we just go to his house and scare him."

Chi Xiaochi was a bit surprised, "Brother, who did you learn this from?"

Lou Ying : "I like to teach myself."

Chi Xiaochi poked him with a smile, "Stealing lessons."

Lou Ying readily accepts good advice, "Then can we steal Mr. Ik with us."

Joking aside, Lou Ying still has his own agenda.

Previously, they were trapped in that virtual world of consciousness, with no way to approach Jiao Qingguang, and now that they had escaped, he only hoped that he could gather up the Remorse Value as soon as possible and leave this world.

In such a world, it is a great test of one's will, spirit and personal safety.

Even if the video is released, they are not sure if the organization will find them in the near future, or if these currently obedient aliens will have other ideas, or if they will be able to successfully take refuge as planned by Bai Anyi.

Lou Ying didn't want Chi Xiaochi to have to endure such a life of hiding.

Jokingly, Chi Xiaochi exits the hut, pacing back and forth with his feet on the muddy humus, staring into the middle of the sky, wondering what he's looking at.

Lou Ying said, "Me and ' Bai Anyi ' are keeping an eye on it, no one is coming after us for the time being."

He selfishly still wanted Chi Xiaochi to sleep more.

Chi Xiaochi responded, "Well, I'm very comfortable with what you guys are doing."

This one sounds perfunctory.

Lou Ying couldn't help but sigh, "What were you thinking?"

Chi Xiaochi's answer was not what he expected, "I was wondering why there were aliens."

Lou Ying has downloaded and read over 30,000 SCI level papers related to Alterans after regaining full networking capabilities.

It has been five years since the birth of the first alien, and viral theory, contagion theory, and other hypotheses have been put forward one by one, and have been disproved one after another.

Now researchers from various countries are still exploring the question of the origin of psychics.

The academic community has yet to come to a definitive conclusion.

With the conversation with "Bai Anyi" still fresh in our ears, Lou Ying is kind of tempted to poke Chi Xiaochi in the head and put a little more thought into himself: "Those professionals couldn't find the reason, can you? "

Chi Xiaochi slowed down, "Maybe I can."

Lou Ying was dumbfounded for a moment, then realized something: "Did you think of something?"

"Every time I mobilized my powers, the manifestation was a surge of class A globulin, and the types of powers that appeared were strange."

Chi Xiaochi raised his hand in the air and gently touched the particles of dust that only he could see: "Do you remember Lu Qingshu."

Lou Ying, of course, remembers the catfish with the little girl at home.

Chi Xiaochi asked again, "What were his powers, do you remember."

Lou Ying: "He runs fast."

Chi Xiaochi turned her head and asked Bai Anyi, who was sitting on the roof, "In Lu Qingshu's daughter's favorite superhero comic book, does the main character run fast?"

Chi Xiaochi asked Bai Anyi this question when he first came back.

"Bai Anyi" is a computerized memory, and although he has only flipped through a few pages, he has scanned the occasional subplot and line, enough to get some valuable information.

At the beginning, Chi Xiaochi answered truthfully, even though he didn't know what the purpose of his question was.

Now being asked anew, he didn't hesitate to raise his voice and answer, "Yes."

Lou Ying thought for a moment, "That's not admissible as evidence."

"Yes." Chi Xiaochi said, "This really isn't evidence. People often wonder which superpower or psychic ability they would choose if they could have one. For example, a student wants to have the ability to see through cheating, a politician wants to have the ability to see through everything, someone wants to be invisible, someone wants to fly, someone wants to foretell the future, someone wants a myriad of abilities for him to squander for evil, and someone wants world peace and no more weapons....... Ideas are not only varied, but they also change, and so they are very elusive. "

"But ...... Bai Anyi is a special case."

"He is in the academic field, and his alien ability is to control formulas, because he has no other preferences or fields of specialization besides academics, he likes stars and dinosaurs, and he likes to explore unknown scientific fields, so that's why his alien ability is so special ...... And what's even more special is that there's another personality in his body, another A kind of consciousness, after the evolution of the alien ability, that personality also has its own body. This is very unusual, right?"

Lou Ying's mind is already very clear, after Chi Xiaochi's point, there is no way he could not understand: "I know exactly what you mean. You want to say that supernormal ability is a natural evolution based on each person's own needs. But ...... this is just a guess, and what does it have to do with the origin of psychic abilities? Could it be that psychic abilities are mind-only?"

"No way." Chi Xiaochi immediately vetoed the idea, "If it were truly mind-only, those Shifter fanatics who are human would have gotten their wish a long time ago."

Lou Ying mused, "Do you think there was some special opportunity that caused some of the humans to randomly become shifters?"

Chi Xiaochi: "Uh-huh."

"Food and water should not even be a transmission channel." Lou Ying said, "There are aberrants appearing all over the world, and the eating habits and water sources of aberrants are completely different. When the number of aberrants was small, there were experts who specifically observed their diets and sampled them daily, and then when there were more aberrants and it was found that no pattern could be found, this kind of examination became meaningless."

Chi Xiaochi said, "Where's the air?"

Lou Ying said, "Airborne transmission doesn't hold up when the virus can't be checked in the aliens' bodies."

Chi Xiaochi's eyes turned slightly to Lou Ying.

At his glance, Lou Ying suddenly realized, "...... Are you saying that what triggered the mutation was something in the air?"

"People eat different things, drink different water." Chi Xiaochi shrugged, "But isn't it the same air under the same sky that you breathe."

"Indeed, a similar conjecture was made." Lou Ying sifted through the papers carefully, "but after sampling, nothing specific was detected in the air."

"That's just their sampling, they can only take a few specific points." Chi Xiaochi said, "I'll start by sampling 200 cubic yards and see."

It had rained last night, and the rain had adsorbed particles from the air and crashed into the soil, and now that the rain had stopped and a fresh fog had risen, some of the adsorbed particles had separated from the land again, just in time for him to investigate.

Chi Xiaochi rattles off the airborne particles one by one and investigates them in detail.

Oxygen, Hydrogen, Helium, Chlorine, PM, Water, all categorized and labeled by him.

It's a habit formed under the influence of years of collecting addiction.

His ability to manipulate the air was also greatly enhanced by the increase in his powers, and he could even slow down the flow of air within the range of his manipulation.

So Chi Xiaochi solidified 200 cubic meters of mountain air and patiently searched for even the slightest possibility.

He extracted all the known substances present in the air of this world at the present time.

At the end of the day, it turned out to be true that he had caught a bit of foreign matter.

All that was left of the cleared air were two tiny, light-red particles, floating in the air, swirling around in a knot, like a dandelion with nowhere to go.

It had no name, belonged to none of the known databases of this planet, and looked like the spore powder of some plant, with particles ranging in diameter from a mere 3 nanometers.

In 200 cubic meters of air, you only get these two specks of fine dust.

Chi Xiaochi put the two spore powders into her palm and gently fiddled with them, "What is this?"

Lou Ying did a simple parse: "Single particles in living things, active, contain radioactive material, but this radioactive material ...... is also not present in the current body of knowledge on Earth."

Chi Xiaochi offered a guess: "Outer space?"

"Don't rule that out. But it is also possible that it is some kind of newborn species on Earth." Lou Ying spoke more cautiously, "This kind of particle is very small in number and not very dense, and it is very light and extremely mobile, so it is quite normal that it cannot be detected. But how did this particle appear?"

Chi Xiaochi frowned, taking her fingertips and gently teasing the two particles.

Lou Ying asks, "What's on your mind?"

"I'm thinking that the emergence of the Alterans may not be an infection or a disease." Chi Xiaochi spoke up, "Is it possible that it is a historically inevitable ...... evolution?"
