Chapter 968 White Mudworm!
Chapter 968 White Mudworm!
After hearing the word "microorganism" from this woman wearing animal clothing that only primitive tribes have, Lin Chen was shocked!
And from the fact that the Da tribe needs to avoid powerful enemies and survive in this underground without sunlight, Lin Chen can infer that this ancient tribe should be a primitive tribe that is out of touch with the outside world.
Let alone knowing modern scientific terms such as "microorganism", I'm afraid they have never seen the amazing changes brought about by modern technology in the outside world?
However.
Da Qing saw Lin Chen's doubts. She smiled indifferently and said:
"Is it strange? I know the term microorganism?"
Lin Chen nodded and replied: "It's a bit strange. Because... I think my benefactor and your people should have lived in the depths of Kunlun Mountain all year round and have no chance to contact the outside world."
After hearing this, Da Qing shook her head, and her expression suddenly became a little arrogant?
"Boy, you are wrong! And you are very wrong!"
"I am wrong? Why do you say that?" Lin Chen looked strange.
Daqing smiled sweetly, and a unique temperament appeared on her not-so-pretty face.
"Do you think... in the five thousand years of Chinese history, only your so-called ancient families have the most profound history? Your identity is the most special!
Whether you are from the Lin family, or the Su family or the Ye family, although they are called ancient families by modern people, if your family was placed thousands of years ago, it would only be some second- and third-rate families!
The four ancient families that were truly famous thousands of years ago were the Bao family, the Da family, the Mei family (this word is pronounced as MO, not the sister of sister), and the Li family! These four families are the real four famous families! Even if two thousand People from years ago, when they mentioned these four ancient clans, all of them would show awe!
Although the direct lineage of our four ancient clans must stay in the depths of the Kunlun Mountains for various reasons...but our branch clans have long been spread all over the world!
Are you surprised to hear the three words "microorganisms" from my mouth? Actually not. Because as the clan leader, I naturally have to go out once a year to listen to the clan leaders of the branch clans report their work. So my knowledge and cognition are completely beyond your imagination! "
After hearing this, Lin Chen was stunned.
The four ancient clans? Even more powerful than the ancient families? Everyone knew about it thousands of years ago? Could it be that these four ancient clans are really the real famous families in the history of China?
Moreover, their branch clans have long taken root and developed in modern society?
Although the benefactor still seems to live a primitive life of eating raw meat and drinking blood, she has actually been in contact with the outside world. It seems that she is not as ignorant as imagined?
What shocked Lin Chen even more was that...Da Qing mentioned an incredible fact! Those strange white muds are actually a kind of microorganisms? These microorganisms can actually improve people's physical fitness and make people appear "immortal"?
Da Qing smiled and said again:
"Boy, I know that your heart must have set off a huge wave. This is not surprising, because the white mud is a kind of microorganism that looks like the juice in the body of the green demon at first glance. People who don't know it, just like those warriors who hope to be immortal, will think that it is the green demon that gives them this ability."
Suddenly, Lin Chen became very interested in the white mud.
"Then please tell me quickly, how can this white mud make people immortal? Although it is not true immortality, I still don't understand why those warriors can live long and keep their youthful faces?"
Da Qing smiled and told all the reasons.
"These white muds are called white mud worms. According to modern terms, they are actually a very rare and special microorganism. They only live in the depths of the Kunshan Mountains, have extremely strong vitality, and live in groups.
The reason why the white muds keep wriggling is because it is a surface phenomenon after countless white mud worms gather together.
White mud likes bronze, so as long as there are bronze devices around them, they will be attracted to flock to it.
In addition, the reason why those warriors can obtain the ability of "immortality" is actually just because the white mud worms have partially replaced their blood.
White mud worms have a special life function. This function is immortality on the surface.
However, if you use the language of modern science and technology to explain it, it will take a long time. Since you want to know, I will explain it to you.
Why do people age? Why do they die of old age? Sleep?
In scientific terms, it is because the organism is an unstable chemical system and belongs to a dissipative structure.
In the system, various biological molecules have a large number of active groups.
As time goes by, the active groups of biological molecules are constantly consumed and reduced, and the original molecular structure gradually changes. The accumulation of these changes will gradually cause biological tissues to age.
These changes show that the activity of genes is gradually lost in an orderly manner, prompting cells and tissues to undergo continuous and regular changes, and finally to aging and death.
The microorganism white mud worm can actively exchange with the blood of organisms, replace its function to a certain extent, and delay this attenuation phenomenon. This is the so-called immortality.
However, no matter how magical the white mud worm is, it cannot delay the aging of organisms indefinitely. After entering the body, this characteristic of the white mud worm can only last for a few years.
So those warriors will use the Green Demon to let new white mud worms enter their bodies every few years, and then achieve the ability of "immortality".
Of course, this ability looks extremely magical and has a fatal temptation to people, but in fact, after the human body is transformed by the white mud worm, many sequelae will occur.
There are two known sequelae.
One of them is that the transformed person cannot leave the Kunlun Mountains. Because the Kunlun Mountains are extremely high and the environment is extremely cold. Under such conditions, the activity of the white mud worm will be greatly reduced.
Once they leave this living environment, the white mud worm will become active, and finally... until it invades the human brain and turns that person into a white mud man who has lost his own life! That is, it becomes an unconscious body!
However, the white mud worm is always a microorganism. It has many natural enemies and is afraid of many things. The internal strength of the warrior is a peculiar life energy, which is one of the natural enemies of the white mud worm.
The higher the martial artist's cultivation, the more powerful the internal strength can be used to suppress the activity of the white mud worm. Therefore, only those warriors whose physiques have been improved can have the ability to live forever on the surface, and have not lost consciousness.
As for the second sequelae..."
