Chapter 130 Parasitism and Symbiosis

The call from Yang Tuo at dawn woke everyone in the cave.

The young scholar's voice was dull, and it was obvious that the scientific research work of instruments was not so easy in the base.

"Last night, our transport team received a new airdrop." Yang Tuo did not talk too much nonsense and went straight to the point, "The things inside were signed as Miao Guangqi."

Yang Tuo's opening remarks make Aa

His whole body shook slightly and he couldn't help but say, "Teacher?"

"Yes, it's A

Miss e's mentor, Professor Miao Guangqi." Yang Tuo said on the phone, "He sent in a scientific research report, the most important of which is the residual cell gene map of the victims of the Shan Yan Wang in the Su family thirty years ago, which is very precious."

"Have you found anything?" Dylan asked at this time.

"By comparing the genetic map of the Shan Yan Wang cells in the victims of the Su family thirty years ago and the recent victims in the Altai Mountains, the difference between the two is far from being as simple as the individual differences between the same species. Dylan, to be honest, even I can't believe it. The variation range of Shan Yan Wang in the past thirty years is actually cross-border."

"What?" Dylan and A

e When he heard the word "cross-border" he looked shocked.

Lin Shuo's heart was also "sudden".

"Cross-border?" Wei Xingshan couldn't help but say, "Is this mountain hell so versatile?"

As soon as Wei Xingshan said this, he felt something was wrong, so he couldn't help but touch the back of his head and smiled, with a slightly embarrassed face.

Fortunately, this man had a good personal relationship with Yang Tuo, so this aside saying did not make Yang Tuo dislike him, but instead explained patiently:

"Bio classification, from top to bottom, are domains, boundaries, phylums, classes, orders, families, generas, species. For example, we humans are the domains of eukaryotic organisms, animal kingdoms, chordates, vertebrate subphylums, mammals, true beast subclass, primate orders, ape suborders, human family, human subfamily, human race, human race, human race, and Homo sapiens.

Among the currently widely accepted doctrines, there are five biological classification levels of "world", namely the prokaryotic world, the protease, the plant world, the fungus world, and the animal world.

As a brand new species, Shan Yanwang is currently difficult to apply in this biological classification.

However, judging from its cell structure and the genes contained in it, most of its characteristics were consistent with plants thirty years ago.

And now, it is an animal.

I have predicted the mutation ability of the Shan Yan King before, and it is indeed extraordinary.

But it is too exaggerated to be able to cross-border mutation in thirty years."

"Is this major mutation possible without the accumulation of hundreds of millions of years?" Dylan couldn't help but murmured to himself, "If it was just a new ability, it would be possible to change successfully through one or two iterations. But the type of biological itself can also mutate like this, is it still a creature on Earth?"

"So I was surprised too." Yang Tuo said.

"Well, what's so great about this? Cordyceps sinensis got it done in a few months." Wei Xingshan said carelessly.

"Cordyceps is a fungus, it is not a direct gene mutation..." Dylan retorted.

"Wait!" Yang Tuo on the other end of the phone seemed to be reminded, "Old Wei is right."

"You mean..." Dilan was stunned and asked, "Double Parasite?"

"It may also be parasitic after symbiosis, or vice versa, in short, there are many possibilities." Yang Tuo said, "This idea is good, I will study it again. By the way, once you collect samples on site, you must send them to me as soon as possible. Mongolia has already configured the helicopter and will be able to reach your place soon."

After saying this quickly, Yang Tuo praised again before hanging up the phone: "Old Wei, you are so awesome."

"That's it!" Wei Xingshan looked proud and turned his head to ask Lin Shuo and showed off, "How is it? Am I okay?"

"It's like you understand what's going on." Lin Shuo gave Wei Xingshan a blank look.

"Hey!" Wei Xingshan smiled and asked, "Lao Lin, what does Lao Yang mean by symbiotic parasitics?"

Lin Shuo said, "Symosis is when two creatures live together, and both parties benefit each other. Parasitism is when two creatures live together, but one party benefits and the other party suffers. The two are similar in form, but there are essential differences. It's like I'm with you, we're doing business together, and you think it's a symbiotic relationship, but it's actually a parasitic relationship."

"Although I don't fully understand, you are definitely not a good thing!" Wei Xingshan said loudly.

"Okay, let's talk about it." Lin Shuo brought the topic back on track. "Originally, they always believed that the relationship between the King of Hell and the host was a parasitic or symbiotic relationship.

Here, it is easy to fall into a misunderstanding in thinking that the King of Hell itself is a creature that is parasitic or symbiotic.

Just now, your Cordyceps sinensis reminded Yang Tuo. The King of Hell itself may not be a creature, but like Cordyceps sinensis, it is also parasitized or symbiotic.

Only in this way can we explain more reasonably why the genes of Shan Yan Wang can mutate across borders in just thirty years.

Because itself, it is not a kind of creature, but two kinds.

The Shan Yan King collected by Senior Miao thirty years ago and the Shan Yan King we collected recently may be the parasitic and parasitic sides of the Shan Yan King, or they may be the two sides symbiotically living with each other.

One is an animal and the other is a plant.

Your mistake was a new idea for Yang Tuo.”

"So that's the case." Wei Xingshan finally understood and asked for help, "Lao Lin, you see I'm quite useful, so we must be symbiotic, definitely not parasitic relationships."

"However, Mr. Wei's reminder also brought new problems." Dilan said slowly at this time, "If the Shan Yan King is a creature, although it is very strange, it is only one. If it is a combination between two strange creatures, plus the host, then there are three variables here, and there are many possibilities. This is impossible to make breakthrough progress in the prediction of biological behavior in a short period of time."

"But he's one step closer to the truth." A

e added lightly.

"Okay, no matter how much research and demonstration is, it's just a matter of paper. Someone still needs to do it." Lin Shuo said, turned his head and looked at the sky outside.

While everyone was talking, it was already bright outside the cave.

It was still snowing outside, but the wind was much lighter.

"Let's go."

...

Moving forward in the wind and snow is never an easy task.

Even for Lin Shuo, the same is true.

The geographical environment of Jiangnan determines his talent and his ability to learn since childhood, and they are more adapted to the relatively warm wetland forests.

In this kind of ice and snowy environment, he can achieve up to 50% or 60% of his ability.

It is rare in the history of the Lin family when they go to the northwest to take over the business, because the big and small transactions here are usually owned by the Su family.

In the past 100 years, as strange creatures gradually disappeared, the business of hunting doors has also decreased. Generally speaking, it is enough to mobilize local hunters, and few people can alarm the six people to take action personally.

The six masters of the world have formed a team of only three times in the past twenty years.

Once, it was Kunlun Mountain six years ago, but that time was a coincidence, not a hunting hook snake.

Another time, in the Northeast fifteen years ago, Miao Guangqi and Cao Yusheng joined forces to hunt, but ended in failure.

Another time, it's now.

Lin, Su, Zhang, and the three hunters joined forces to hunt the King of Hell in the snowy Altai Mountains.

The followers of their companions, coupled with the information they exchanged for their lives by the predecessors of Hunting Sect, and the ever-changing modern biology assistance, made Lin Shuo get closer and closer to this strange creature.

But this kind of approach feels like a place that is far away.

It seems to be close, but it seems to be farther away.

But the steps are always moving forward.

In the evening that day, five people, one wolf, one bird, and one trekked hard, and finally saw a long-lost green after crossing a snow-capped mountain.

At the foot of the mountain is a large lush green forest.

So Lin Shuo knew that he had returned to the home court.

In this kind of forest, he is like a fish in water.

But he also knew that something abnormal would happen, and it was not normal for such a forest to appear in the snow-capped mountains.

From now on, I have truly entered the territory of the King of Hell.
