Every day is one step closer to reality

After lying on the bed and checking his phone for a while, replying to some messages and checking the time, Feng Yi made a video call to Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu has been immersed in several small studies recently. In order not to disturb his research, Feng Yi made an appointment with Xiao Wu in advance.

Xiaowu, who was far away in Yangcheng, also stared at the time. Although today's small research had not been completed, he still put aside the work in his hand an hour in advance while thinking about what Feng Yi might encounter when he went on the mission this time. question while waiting for Feng Yi’s call.

He intuitively felt that Feng Yi's call would bring him a little surprise.

When the time came, Xiao Wu quickly picked up the phone as soon as it rang.

"Boss, did this mission go well?"

Xiao Wu also read various news about Feng Yi on the Internet. He did not believe the literal information reported in the news.

After glancing at Feng Yi on the other side of the video, he seemed to be in good condition and had lost a little weight.

"It's not bad." Feng Yi didn't say much about this mission and said directly to Xiao Wu, "I brought a special kind of rock and asked Xiao Ding to bring it back to you. You can keep it. You can study it if you want."

Xiaowu perked up, his eyes flashing with excitement, "Rock? What kind of rock is it?"

Feng Yi hesitated for a moment. He couldn't elaborate on the cave of his ancestors, so he thought of a more obscure description.

"You can think of it as a special material that forms on the rock surface over time... just like the patina on an antique plate."

Xiaowu: "...I seem to understand."

Recalling carefully, Xiao Wu said: "Based on what I learned from my seniors and the information I collected myself, what you are talking about should be - body surface secretions, energy rays, and various factors in special environments, etc." Wait, under the combined effect of years of accumulation, a special 'shell' is formed in the cave?"

Feng Yi: "Yes!"

Xiaowu really knows this!

However, Feng Yi thought of what Xiao Wu had said just now, "I learned it from my seniors", and raised his eyebrows slightly:

"Has anyone studied this before?"

Xiao Wu said: "If it is really like that, seniors would have been studying it decades ago."

There is no need to say clearly who this "seniors" refers to.

In addition to his aunt, there is also his own team.

Feng Yi was curious: "Isn't it the Ancestor Company?"

Xiao Wu explained: "No. The Ancestral Factory specializes in studying venom, and the one that studies rocks is another team, founded by your aunt, Ms. Feng. It should now be in the hands of Ms. Feng's daughter, your cousin."

"Tell me what you know." Feng Yi was really interested in this, mainly because he wanted to know what the research had revealed.

Xiao Wu: "I don't know much. As far as I know, the team that studies rocks does not study rocks to the outside world, but special synthetic materials. They cooperate with some large research institutes and key laboratories. .”

As he spoke, Xiao Wu pointed to the top of his head, "It also involves some matters at the military level."

"The three coatings and a new material that were initially developed based on raw materials are not only waterproof, anti-oxidation, high and low temperature resistant, anti-microbial adhesion, etc., these are basic functions. The new special materials can also Effective defense against certain harmful rays!"

"Up to now, more than ten kinds of materials have been developed. As for how many successful researches there are that have not been made public, I don't know. This is the core secret of the company. That materials company, no, it should be a large group now , a giant that is much larger than when it was first founded.”

"The special materials developed have a wide range of applications, from deep-sea diving to land combat to aerospace. They are found in many important fields..."

After listening to Xiao Wu's words, Feng Yi couldn't help but think:

Perhaps, the materials used in certain parts of the ships, planes, and satellites overhead are related to that kind of "pattern".

It’s just that everyone doesn’t know it.

I can’t let everyone know either.

Question was born in the laboratory.

As for the root cause, it is top secret and cannot be said.

Feng Yi was not the first one to "study myself". Before him, there were aunts and possibly many seniors who had done similar things.

Or perhaps, some common objects in life originated from the "I study myself" of a certain predecessor.

Seeing that Feng Yi remained silent, Xiao Wu thought that Feng Yi was worried or regretful, so he continued:

"The current R\u0026D personnel of that materials research team probably don't know the core secrets, nor do they know what the 'source material' is. They are just conducting further research and development on the original research results."

Observing Feng Yi's expression, Xiao Wu asked tentatively: "Boss, do you want to form another research team to study the patina... well, this kind of rock?"

Feng Yi shook his head, "No, it's not necessary."

He does plan to form a team to study this if no one is studying it. But since someone has already started researching it and has produced a lot of results, there is no need for him to invest a lot of manpower and financial resources in this. There is no advantage and there is no need to compete for jobs.

Xiaowu smiled and said: "Boss, you don't need to envy them. In fact, one ancestor factory is enough."

Feng Yi agreed with this.

Venom alone is enough for them to study.

This is unique to Feng Yi, and its toxicity is more intense and more complex than the previous generation, or even the predecessors in many clans.

It is more toxic and dangerous, but it also means it has higher research value.

Xiaowu comforted him: "Because many important projects here have long research and development cycles, the benefits are not yet obvious."

Feng Yi thought about the large amount of money that was added to his bank card account every month, took a deep breath, and expressed silence at the description of "the benefits are not yet obvious".

Xiao Wu continued: "When those big projects come to fruition and drugs are gradually developed, the benefits that will be brought to you can be replaced by a new luxury private jet every year, so easily!"

Feng Yi: "..."

Although I have known the research value of venom for a long time, my heart beats faster every time I hear these words!

He took another breath without leaving a trace and stabilized his face.

Feng Yi: "Well, I know all this. Xiao Ding will bring the rock back to Yangcheng tomorrow."

"Okay! I'll save the sample!"

Xiao Wu is still very interested in this patina... well, this special rock.

The experimental team that studies rock materials and the experimental team that studies venom are developed independently. Therefore, Xiao Wu cannot participate in any research projects on rock materials, nor can he learn more. What can be known and what can be found is information that the other side is willing to release.

However, the longer Xiao Wu has been exposed to this special race of Feng Yi, the more Xiao Wu knows that many secrets are hidden where no one can see and will not be announced to the outside world.

For example, those special materials, who would have thought that these materials come from the wall of a cave in a certain mountain range?

Who would have thought that it was actually a kind of "paste"? !

He was willing to follow Feng Yi as a private doctor with no reputation, just to satisfy more curiosity and explore more secrets that ordinary people could not access. This kind of life would be more interesting, wouldn't it?

No regrets!

Dr. Xiao Wu sighed inwardly and immediately took action after the conversation. Before Xiao Ding came back, he adjusted his work plan, and he must be in the best mental state to treat this rare patina... ahem, special material.

Over there, Feng Yi finished talking to Xiao Wu and then made a video call to the housekeeper.

At this time, the housekeeper should not be busy.

As usual, the butler was quickly connected.

But the camera was turned off and turned on after a while.

Feng Yi looked at the phone screen.

In the picture, the housekeeper seemed to have hurriedly covered something with a piece of cloth.

After looking at the scene layout over there, Feng Yi asked, "Are you making a model?"

The butler smiled: "Yes."

"It's getting late, please protect your eyes." Feng Yi said, and wanted to search in the video to see if he could find anything else, such as what kind of model the butler was making.

Unfortunately, the butler's protective measures are so good that I can't tell what it's like to make this model.

I don’t know if there are any private goods included, such as adding some details that shouldn’t exist.

We hadn’t seen each other for a while. When the housekeeper saw Feng Yi, the smile on his face deepened and he frowned slightly, "He's lost weight!"

Feng Yi: "It's a small problem, we'll fix it soon."

After chatting with the housekeeper about daily life for a while, Feng Yi mentioned the mountain range where he went on a mission and asked:

"Have you ever been to the mountains a lot?"

The butler replied: "As far as I know, not much. As for what I don't know, it's hard to say."

Feng Yi expressed his understanding.

The housekeeper didn't gain my aunt's trust very early, so I may not know what my aunt was doing when she was young. During the period of abnormal climate, social instability and global turmoil made it easier to go to sea and less easy to be discovered. After reaching a certain stage of development, if you want to find a suitable place to shed your skin, compared with mountains, of course Better to go to the sea.

Energy matter can be produced in the mountains, but the production speed is too slow and the amount is not large.

The mountains are indeed a good place, but they are not enough to support growth and development after a hundred years of age.

You may not be able to reach eighty years old.

Feng Yi did not dare to compare his lifespan with his ancestors. He thought that it would be better if his lifespan was not much shorter than that of his aunt.

I chatted with the housekeeper for a while before ending the call.

In the house in Yangcheng.

After talking to Feng Yi, the housekeeper sat by the window, took off his glasses, and looked out the window without focus.

He recalled the conversation he had with that person.

At that time, Ms. Feng's end was approaching, and Feng Yi was chosen as her successor.

At that time, Feng Yi was a complete stranger to the housekeeper.

When he got the heir's information, the housekeeper just scanned it casually. He knew that the information he could find was not important.

He asked: "What kind of person is Feng Yi? Will his talent be stronger?"

At that time, how did Ms. Feng respond?

"Feng Yi..."

"I don't know how talented he is, but I hope he doesn't have to be too strong so he can live longer."

The steward knows that the current environment on this planet is not so friendly to this special group.

It's as if this planet has drawn a lifeline for the individuals of this group, limiting them to only develop to a certain stage. Once they reach this stage, their lives will come to an end.

The more talented an individual is, the sooner he will meet his end.

"You don't need to be too smart, and you don't need to have powerful talents. You are ordinary and ordinary. Maybe you can live for more than 100 years. That is also a kind of luck."

To survive, suppressor genes sound the alarm.

Perhaps tens of millions of years later, in order for individuals to continue to survive, the suppressor genes in the genetic material will further take over, turning them into younger individuals that consume less energy.

Generation after generation, more genes are silenced, and individuals gradually become ordinary.

Perhaps, one day in the future, all genes will be dormant, and no one will become this form.

The housekeeper lifted the cover, revealing the unfinished prototype of Feng Yi that had been covered up just now.

Based on the anaconda, people imagine what the titan anaconda looked like 60 million years ago.

People use legends to describe the form and appearance of a certain ethnic group in the past.

But imagination is just imagination after all.

"It's better to be alive."

After a while, the housekeeper sighed again, "It's better to be stupid."

So young, so pitiful.
