Paranormal incident investigation notes

An analysis report was finally submitted to Lu Ming. After skipping the long analysis process filled with complex symbols and diagrams and looking directly at the conclusion, Lu Ming was stunned.

The investigation and analysis results of the top experts once again exceeded Lu Ming's expectations.

At the end of the analysis report, there are a dozen dragons and phoenixes dancing with different signatures, which represents the authenticity and accuracy of this analysis report.

No matter how many contradictions there are with existing clues and speculations, as soon as this analysis report comes out, all contradictory things will be immediately falsified.

Lu Ming pondered for a while, and then walked into the conference room until the time for the regular meeting arrived.

Zhang Dingshan also walked in from outside. He Wei and Lu Qingliang also appeared on the video screen on time.

"There is a major breakthrough that I would like to inform everyone about."

Lu Mingyang showed the analysis report in Yang's hand: "The truth of the matter may be beyond our expectations. But this conclusion has been signed by more than a dozen experts to confirm its authenticity and accuracy. We have not questioned the necessity and accuracy of this document at all. reason."

"oh?"

The investigation of the murderous house case has made no progress for several days so far. As the overall damage to the Binhai Building increases, and as the probability of the dragon-suppressing pile formation pattern being destroyed increases, that sense of urgency has always lingered in the hearts of the second team and has never dissipated.

Now...is there finally any significant progress?

Several people did not speak, but focused their attention on Lu Ming at the same time.

"The death of the Terror Bacteria has nothing to do with the Dragon Suppressing Stake."

Lu Ming stated this conclusion almost word for word.

He Wei raised her eyebrows and asked the question almost subconsciously: "How is it possible? How could it have nothing to do with the Dragon Suppressing Stake?"

Lu Qingliang frowned, his eyes full of shock and confusion.

"The truth about the death of phobias is that as the expert team deepened their research on the physiology of phobias, they found that phobias are very different from the bacteria we usually know. One of the most critical differences is that phobias, It’s a kind of colonial bacterial life.”

When he first saw this description, Lu Ming was also puzzled by it. The reason is simple. I have only heard of social animals, such as wolves, hunting dogs, buffaloes, etc. I have never heard of any bacteria being called social bacteria.

"Furthermore, the nature of the group nature of Terror Bacteria is different from the gregarious living we have known in the past. To put it simply, each Terror Bacteria individual has the ability to release extremely weak bioelectricity to the external environment. Countless Terror Bacteria When the bacteria gather together, the weak bioelectricity released can create an electric field in an area. And the survival of a single fungus depends on this electric field."

Every phobia is a participant, transformer and beneficiary of the current environment.

"This extremely weak and difficult-to-detect electric field is of great significance to the physiology of a single fungus. Without the participation of this electric field, various enzymes, various hormones, and even DNA inside their bodies will be affected. The feces cannot function normally. The final result is its own apoptosis."

Without the group, a single, or less than a certain number of, fungi cannot survive alone.

Lu Ming looked at Zhang Dingshan, He Wei and Lu Qingliang, and said slowly: "So, once collected, he will die within no more than two hours, and it has nothing to do with the dragon-suppressing pile. It has nothing to do with it. It's because they're out of this crucial tiny electric field."

From a human perspective, when collected from the ground with a cotton swab and put under a microscope, the fungus has only moved a little over one meter. Or if you place the microscope on the ground for observation, the moving distance of the fungi will be even smaller, only a few centimeters.

It's a very short distance.

But for fungi, it's like a natural chasm. The weak electric fields they construct cannot cover such a long distance. So they died.

The expert team conducted a lot of rigorous research on every step of the argument to reach this final conclusion, and added a lot of evidence and data that although Lu Ming couldn't understand, he could feel it by feel. Therefore, there is nothing to question about this final conclusion.

Now that the experts have said this, just believe it.

"This... this kind of survival mode is really the first time I've heard of it." He Wei still felt a little unbelievable: "Is this kind of bacteria really the life that should exist on earth?"

Lu Ming said: "The fungi are indeed life on earth. Genetic analysis shows that there are many homologous DNAs between fungi and life on earth. This shows that in ancient times, fungi had the same DNA as us humans. Ancestor. It’s just that the two chose different evolutionary paths. In the end, one branch evolved into humans, and the other branch evolved into the current fear bacteria.”

"How many years?"

"It was more than 2 billion or even more than 3 billion years ago, and the specific age cannot be determined."

Lu Ming shook his head: "But this doesn't make much sense. The really meaningful thing happened about 125 million years ago. Existing genetic analysis data shows that around that time, some individuals of a certain archaea were isolated into one A place that is not connected to the external environment. As a result, this part of the archaea lost the possibility of exchanging their DNA with the outside world, embarked on an independent evolutionary path that was completely different from the outside world, and finally evolved to the present."

"That cave!"

Lu Qingliang couldn't help shouting these words.

Lu Ming nodded slowly: "That should be the case."

He Wei was slightly absent-minded at this moment. The words she was talking about at this moment seemed to bring her to a bizarre world full of magic and fantasy.

This world seemed so unreal, but her reason told her that it all really existed.

125 million years ago, the earth was still in the Cretaceous period. At that time, the earth's continents were separated by oceans, and the earth's environment was warm and dry.

Many new dinosaur species appeared during this geological era, and the largest dinosaurs originated here.

Dinosaurs ruled the land, various pterosaurs ruled the skies, and giant marine reptiles ruled the seas. The first snakes, moths, bees and many new small mammals also appeared here, and angiosperms also appeared during this period.

Perhaps with an earthquake, a landslide, or a collapse, an underground cavity appeared, or a space was buried underground.

Some kind of archaea that originally lived in this space was buried underground along with this geological movement, and has been completely isolated from the outside world ever since.

They thus embarked on an evolutionary journey that was completely different from the outside world.

Over the long years, for some unknown reason, this underground space has always maintained an environment that can sustain the survival of this kind of archaea. It may be accompanied by geological changes over the next hundreds of millions of years, and may be buried deeper or closer to the surface.

Finally, they came to a place less than a hundred meters away from the surface.

After an unimaginably long period of time, this archaea finally evolved into what it is today. Along with Wu Qingfu's construction of the Binhai Building, he accidentally dug up this underground cave, opening a channel for the fungi to communicate with the outside world. Only now can the information about them be presented to Lu Ming and told to his teammates. We know.

This is a life journey full of incredible wonders.

Zhang Dingshan lightly knocked on the table, awakening several people from their fantasy-filled reverie.

"This evidence does not prove that there is no relationship between the fungi and the dragon-suppressing pile."

Lu Ming sorted out his thoughts for a moment and said solemnly: "That's true. Although it has been proven that the death of the fungi has nothing to do with the dragon-suppressing pile, why didn't the fungi leave the Binhai Building on a large scale, and why did they break away from the group electric field? ’ After that, you can survive for two hours inside the Binhai Building, but you can only survive for less than half an hour outside the Binhai Building. This is probably still because of the dragon-suppressing pile.”

If a single or a smaller number of individual phobia bacteria are taken out and separated from the "electric field" created by the whole, it will lead to the death of a smaller number of phobia bacteria that are not enough to create that kind of electric field.

So a new question is, why didn’t the fungi living in the Binhai Building spread outward on a large scale?

They can completely follow the normal reproduction and propagation path, always maintaining a sufficient number of individuals at the boundaries of the territory, always maintaining each individual under the envelope of the electric field, spreading outward micron by micron, until the entire earth is covered. Fully occupied.

Even if this group is "cut off" for some reason, such as the spraying of disinfectants, each of the two groups after being separated still has a sufficient number of individuals, and they can still survive.

Moreover, doing this does not require any intelligence or intelligent command. They only need to rely on their own instincts to do this.

Just like when an ant colony grows large enough, some ants will go out and build another nest, so will some bees. And this behavior, on the whole, also expands the territory occupied by the population.

Existing research is enough to show that in this regard, the microorganisms that have evolved independently for hundreds of millions of years are no different from their "distant relatives".

They also have this ability.

But the key question is, why don't they?

This matter, I'm afraid, will still fall on the Dragon Suppression Stake.

"Now it seems that the role of the dragon-suppressing pile is still undeniable. Those dinosaurs did not die because of the dragon-suppressing pile, but the entire group of dinosaurs was restricted to the Binhai Building because of the existence of the dragon-suppressing pile. inside, it cannot spread to the outside.”

Zhang Dingshan said and looked at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming expressed his agreement with Zhang Dingshan's conclusion, and then said: "I have informed the experts and asked them to conduct research on this matter to see what is hindering the spread of the fungus."
