to meddle with these things."No, no," Sun Lao San picked up a piece of paper from the ground and excitedly pointed at it for me to see.What I saw puzzled me, on a blank sheet of paper they drew a big..."Brother Jian, what's behind us" After walking for a few minutes, Chen Jiasheng saw the middle-aged man keep looking back, so he asked curiously.

The man called Jian Ge said nothing.

When they reached a wide open space, they stopped.

I saw that a large, olive-green tent had been set up on the flat ground. I estimated that it was over ten meters long. It was an arched dome shape with a door in the middle. From its appearance, it looked very much like a Mongolian yurt.

They pushed open the curtain and went straight in. I waited there for three or five minutes, feeling that it was about time, so I followed them, crouching low.

There was a crack in the curtain, and I peeked through it.

There are three people inside, all wearing white coats and masks. There are several electronic instruments on the table that I've never seen before, as well as a small diesel generator running.

"How's it going" the middle-aged man asked as he walked in.

One of them, wearing a white coat, spoke up. The voice that came out was surprisingly clear and melodious, belonging to a young woman, it seemed.

A woman complained, "The conditions here are too harsh. I wonder how much money the teacher received to send us here. The conditions here aren't even one percent of what we had in our Hong Kong lab!"

After grumbling for a bit, she continued, "You've already looked over the samples we gave you," she said, pointing to a large monitor. "The data is strange. This biological sample has almost no water content, yet some of its cells are still active. Moreover, there's a substance similar to vivianite in the sample's blood vessels. This kind of material is incredibly difficult to extract given our current capabilities. To be frank with us, what exactly are we researching"

“You talk too much,” the middle-aged man said coldly, “Finish your job and get paid. Don't ask anything you shouldn't.”

The female doctor in a white coat also arrived, she took off her mask with a flourish.

This is a very beautiful girl. She has three-dimensional features, fair skin, and big eyes. She is probably in her twenties. She's a stunning beauty who looks a lot like a mixed-race person and speaks fluent Mandarin.

"Hey hey hey, what's your attitude!" The mixed-race woman snapped angrily.

Another male accomplice immediately grabbed him and advised, “Xiao An, don’t be impulsive. The teacher told me to keep an eye on you so that you wouldn’t make a fool of yourself.”

“What he meant was crystal clear: these people are too powerful for us to mess with. Girl, you need to calm down.”

Right away, the white-coated peacemaker smiled and took over, "Boss, please rest assured. We're making good progress. In two or three days, we'll be able to extract what you want. After all, our conditions are harsh and lacking in equipment, so we hope you can bear with us a little."

"One day, we'll give you a maximum of one day," the middle-aged man glanced at his watch, "by this time tomorrow, I need to see the final result."

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Having said that, the man turned his head and walked straight out.

In a moment of desperation, I hid behind the tent.

Chen Jian-sheng came out to send the man off. She patted her chest and said, "Jian Ge, you go first. Here I'll help you urge them along. Little Headband Adult still needs you to speak up for him a few times, hehe," Chen Jian-sheng kept rubbing his hands back and forth incessantly.

After the man left, Chen Jian-sheng sprawled in a chair, lit a cigarette, and propped up his legs. "Beauty, I'm not like that guy just now. I'm more easygoing," he said. "I heard that something extracted from that corpse can make people revert to childhood and live forever Is that true"

"Little An, the beautiful woman in a white coat, shook her head and said, 'We're still far from that step. To be honest, I don't think we can achieve it with our current technology. There are still many things that we don't understand.'"

What we've extracted is at most a half-finished product.

As she spoke, the woman took out a small glass bottle. Inside the bottle was a pale blue, transparent liquid.pen the coffin lid, our third brother was facing away from us. He stood there motionless, as if he were under a spell."What's wrong, Lao San! What's in the coffin!"As if he hadn't heard his brother, h...
