The mist gradually dissipated and became thinner and thinner.The peach blossom jellyfish seem to be transparent, each one is only the size of a fist, dancing lightly in the air.Their tentacles are slender and soft, and the top of the round umbrella-shaped body has beautiful peach petal-shaped lines, which deform slightly with every movement.

The surrounding fog finally dissipated completely, and there were only students and their spiritual bodies, as well as countless peach blossom jellyfish.

Tiny water droplets are suspended in the air, refracting sunlight.The jellyfish seems to be cruising in the colorful illusion, floating and drifting, passing everyone's sight, feeling at ease.

"Peach jellyfish is a rare freshwater jellyfish, which was born 5 million years ago. It records the progress of human beings from ocean to land, from ancient times to modern times." Ou Yiye's voice came from far away, no longer hoarse The old voice said, "Aquatic animal spirits are rare, and teacher Zhang Xiaoyuan's Peach Blossom Jellyfish spirit is a very rare one."

Qiao Fangjiu stretched out her hand, and a peach blossom jellyfish hovered over her palm, then turned around and swam away without hesitation.She murmured to Ou Yino's words, as if answering a question in class: "It doesn't have a water-based protective cover..."

Every aquatic animal spirit possesses an aqueous protective shield.This round bubble-shaped transparent air cover protects them. Once the water-based protective cover is broken and not repaired immediately, the aquatic animal's mental body will have problems.

But the jellyfish has no such cover.

"A spiritual body without a water-based protective cover is very rare, but this feature also allows Teacher Zhang's spiritual body to possess a skill that almost no other aquatic animal spiritual body has." Ou Yinye introduced, "It is invisibility."

The lack of a water-based protective cover is actually equivalent to reducing the burden that comes with the mental body.When the peach blossom jellyfish hides in the dense fog, it can completely adapt to the light and hide its figure.Among the 50 students in the audience, only a handful of people found mysterious water marks in the field, but no one realized that it was a jellyfish.

Ou Yinye stood on the high platform and paced slowly.His waist was straight, and although he was not tall, he had a majestic aura.

"Many animals used to live on the planet we live on, and a large part of them have disappeared, in other words, become extinct." He changed the topic, "However, the traces of these creatures that once existed still remain on our planet. In the soul. The yeti living in the Himalayas, they have the original gene of Piris cattle*, so they have well-developed bones, tall bodies, and unusually thick hair. The werewolves who were once called "primitive evil breeds" carried wolf A large part of the genes are the genes of extinct wolves. Why do genes and gene fusions occur between creatures of different populations? This is a question we have been studying, and it may be related to human beings in the past. Secrets, future possibilities."

He stopped and stood in the middle of the platform.

"I have been to many places and met many special human beings." The loud words flowed from the speaker, "I have taught many students, some of them have become my pride, and some have completely lost contact with me. New Hope the cutting-edge management school is just a journey in your life, but students, I hope you can remember today. Remember all the magnificent things you have seen, remember the human soul has gone to great lengths to preserve and remember the past .Humans don’t live alone on this planet, and neither do special humans, nor do sentinel guides.”

Ou Yinye held the microphone and clapped his hands hard.

"Cheers to all life."

He enjoyed the applause from the audience, turned around politely, handed the microphone to Zhang Xiaoyuan, and lowered his voice happily: "I have a good speech, and I used to be the spokesperson of the special operations team."

Zhang Xiaoyuan: "Then are you coming to New Hope for class?"

All the students and teachers applauded, and Ou Yinye was a little arrogant: "No, I'm from the Talent Planning Bureau."

After the voice subsided a little, Zhang Xiaoyuan began to announce the list of the teams that identified the most referee spirits.

Beside Rao Xinghai, Qiao Fangjiu was talking to Wang Wensi in a low voice.Both of them thought the kitten and the chameleon were very strange.

"If you want to eavesdrop, don't you just need a kitten?" Wang Wensi was puzzled, "Why do you need to carry a four-legged snake?"

Rao Xinghai interrupted the two of them whispering: "I want to ask a question... a chameleon, is it a carnivore?"

"That's just a high-crested chameleon, omnivorous, eating bugs and vegetables." Qiao Fangjiu explained to him, "The spiritual body of an omnivore may be a sentinel or a guide, it all depends on what kind of person the owner is."

Rao Xinghai nodded again: "Also, what the spiritual body sees and hears, the sentinel can also hear?"

"Not necessarily. For example, Gong Shang, she can't share vision and hearing with the spirit body. I can share part of the vision, like the kitten just now, it should be able to share part of the hearing." Qiao Fangjiu was very patient, "Don't worry, sir All the skills courses of the second class will be taught. However, some cities do a better job of special human education, and these basic points will be covered in junior high school."

Qiao Fangjiu's consolation made Rao Xinghai very helpful: "Okay."

Qiao Fangjiu added: "Moreover, the number of sentries and guides that can communicate with the spirit body is very small. This ability to communicate will damage people's vision and hearing. It must not be used too much. If I use this skill every day, less than 50 Blind at the age of ten. In short, sentries and guides with special skills are the more special kind of people of our kind."

Rao Xinghai nodded.There is a trace of heaviness in his heart: he is already special, and it is impossible to become more ordinary.

Tang Ying has been listening carefully to Zhang Xiaoyuan's answer: white swan... big squid... Siamese cat...

All the answers were exactly the same as their group, except for the last one: long-tailed quetzal.

Rao Xinghai wrote eleven answers, and the last one was "whale", but it was obviously wrong.

"You are the only group that found the long-tailed quetzal, you deserve praise." Zhang Xiaoyuan smiled.

Everyone looked sideways to the right.Qiao Fangjiu recognized them. They were all from the Department of Agriculture and Forestry Science.With sharp eyes, she suddenly noticed that there was a student among the five with the badge of the Department of Civil Engineering on his left chest.

The representative of the agriculture and forestry group was a senior sophomore, and on his head lay the little bastard who had just eavesdropped on the answer.

"The rules mentioned by Mr. Zhang only mention that groups can be grouped, but the departments of the team members did not mention any restrictions. In the few minutes before the start of the competition, we tried our best to get the help of the junior civil engineer." He shot He clapped Junior Brother Tumu on the shoulder, "As early as in the preliminaries, we observed that his chameleon has a very good hiding ability, and he can communicate with the chameleon and pass information to each other."

Tang Ying suddenly realized: "I understand... the kitten is carrying the chameleon, which is double insurance. If we were more vigilant at that time, did not speak, and only communicated on paper, then the kitten could distract us, and the chameleon Take the opportunity to peek at the answer."

She gritted her teeth angrily: "Too good at using rules."

"...the agriculture and forestry team did a very good job." Ou Yinye kept praising on stage, "One of the purposes of this competition is to allow everyone to give full play to their strengths and find out the answers as much as possible. The agriculture and forestry team did not cheat. It's just that they're better at gathering intelligence than the other groups."

Wang Wensi was full of admiration, but also unwilling: "And they found one more spiritual body than us, so they probably eavesdropped on our papers... to correct the answers, right?"

The owner of the kitten, with his excellent leadership, observation and coordination skills, won the champion of the skill demonstration competition.He showed his spiritual body to everyone: "The rusty-spotted leopard cat is only the size of a palm in adulthood, and it is the smallest cat in the world."

In Rao Xinghai's group, only Qiao Fangjiu took the top three. Ou Yinye's evaluation of her was: amazing knowledge reserve, excellent leadership and responsiveness.

After the sentry group's competition, the guide group's competition will follow.Yang Deyi, Gong Shang and Wan Li in the class all entered the finals, while Tang Ying and others stayed on the scene to watch.

Rao Xinghai left after bidding farewell to everyone, and he had to go to the commercial street to help Qu Wu.After walking for a while, Shen Chunlan stopped him from behind.

Seeing the teacher's face intending to comfort him, Rao Xinghai's little heart jumped with joy: "Yes, I am very sad now."

He is really not good at concealing his inner thoughts, Shen Chunlan saw that there was a bit of complacency in his expression, and swallowed back all the good words: "You seem to be in a good mood?"

The competition did not get a good ranking, but Rao Xinghai learned a lot from this competition: his partner, his opponent, and important knowledge that he has not had time to learn.Coupled with the fact that Ou Yinye had taught him the knowledge of doubling the mental body before, he now completely does not want to spend time and energy in frustration for this failure.

But playing tricks on Shen Chunlan is absolutely possible.

"Not very good." He said, "I want to watch mice dance Yangko."

Shen Chunlan resisted the urge to roll her eyes at him: "Forget about the mouse! I want to ask, does Teacher Ou know that you have two spirit bodies?"

Rao Xinghai: "I don't know."

Shen Chunlan: "Today's game is because there are too many referee teachers present, so you don't want to release your mental body?"

Rao Xinghai nodded.

Shen Chunlan was a little worried: "Tomorrow's 6000-meter run, there are several obstacles that must be overcome with a mental body. What should you do?"

Rao Xinghai was quite optimistic: "After I start running, I will release my mental body. The little snake will be put in my clothes, and the golden python will follow me. It doesn't matter."

Shen Chunlan couldn't say anything more.When the two were walking towards the commercial street, Rao Xinghai suddenly remembered something.

"Mr. Shen, your former mentor, Nie Cai," he said, "where did he go after he left New Hope?"

Shen Chunlan was obviously taken aback.

Rao Xinghai just asked casually, but the instant change of expression on Shen Chunlan's face made him realize at this moment: Nie Cai is not just a "mentor" to Shen Chunlan.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Rao Xinghai caught the resistance and panic that quickly appeared and disappeared from Shen Chunlan's face at this moment.

He used to see this expression on the faces of his younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage when people asked why they came to the orphanage.

Because the memory associated with the question is unbearable, and you don’t want to recall it. Resistance is the first reaction, and panic is because of—you, the questioner, how do you know?

Rao Xinghai could hug his younger siblings, but he couldn't reach out to Shen Chunlan right here and now.

Besides, Shen Chunlan's resistance was already too obvious: he took half a step back.

"Why do you ask this?"

And unwilling to answer directly.

Rao Xinghai scratched his hair: "Suddenly remembered."

Shen Chunlan tidied up her expression: "I don't know."

There was a moment of stagnation between the two of them.

"Prepare for your game tomorrow." Shen Chunlan said, "I will see Qu Wu later and remind him that he will also play tomorrow, so pay attention to rest tonight."

Rao Xinghai waved to him, Shen Chunlan turned and walked away.

The "Gearfish" in the backpack suddenly became heavy.Rao Xinghai repeatedly chewed on the name "Nie Cai" in his heart, his thick eyebrows slightly furrowed.

Shen Chunlan was surprised to hear "Nie Cai" from Rao Xinghai's mouth.At that time, he just brushed it in front of Rao Xinghai, and didn't elaborate at all. How could Rao Xinghai remember it so well?

Remembering prison is not a good thing.Shen Chunlan wanted to forget the content of Nie Cai's training, but the clips at that time would always sneak into his unguarded dreams unconsciously.

In the dream, Nie Cai was always sitting on a chair, while he was always standing barefoot in front of him, or kneeling on the ground.

The narrow room in the dream is always dark, the ground is always wet, the black and thick water floods Shen Chunlan's feet, and the cold chill climbs up, like dry and slippery fingers, making people shiver.

"You want to be special, don't you?" Nie Cai's tone was soft, but his voice was deep and hoarse, "You want to prove to everyone that you are different from your brother Shen Chunhong, right?"

Shen Chunlan nodded blankly.

"You hate him very much." Nie Cai leaned forward and gently held his hand, his movements were very gentle, "Shen Chunhong, you hate him. Without him, everyone would see you, not a Shen Chunlan like Shen Chunhong .”

Shen Chunlan didn't answer.

Nie Cai grabbed his hand with a little more strength, and his tone became more gentle: "Hate him, don't you?"

Shen Chunlan shook his head, he wanted to break free from Nie Cai's control, and tried to pull his hand: "I don't hate."

"You don't hate him, how did you become special?" Nie Cai chuckled, "Chun Lan, good boy, hatred is a great thing. You love someone, or you hate someone, as long as you are sincere, Then you'll be completely different from those other people."

Shen Chunlan asked in a low voice, "Why?"

"Because too many people are passing by." Nie Cai's face appeared from the darkness, and Shen Chunlan felt strange for a moment, "It is only strong emotions that distinguish us from other things... Sentinels, guides, the perception we have Ability determines that we should live with strong feelings. Love people, hate people, and you will be happy."

Shen Chunlan only felt scared: "Mr. Nie, I don't know."

Nie Cai suddenly grabbed his hand tightly, almost dragging him in front of her, almost touching his chest.The vicious voice made Shen Chunlan's hair stand on end: "You hate him! You hate your brother, you hate me, you hate everyone! And that stranger who called you, he made you special, he chose you, but he Gave up on you again! You must hate him, you must!"

Shen Chunlan woke up again with a chill on his back and trembling all over.

What happened in the dream was very different from the training he had actually experienced.Nie Cai's office is not dark, and the ground is always dry.Shen Chunlan didn't need to be barefoot, and she didn't need to stand in front of Nie Cai in a forced standing posture.

Nie Cai hadn't even touched him a few times. In Shen Chunlan's impression, he would hold her hand only when he said something important. He was very intimate, gentle, and tough at the same time.

But Shen Chunlan always felt that there was a bottomless quagmire hidden in the tenderness and intimacy.The mud was invisible at the time, but in his nightmares, the mud came to life.

He has been resisting being dragged in by Nie Cai.

Nie Cai's words were terrifying, he didn't believe them, but he could almost remember every sentence.Because these words are quite different from what he usually hears, but they are impressive.

His mentor was undoubtedly an excellent preacher.Shen Chunlan sat up from the bed and sighed deeply.

At this moment, he could only blame Rao Xinghai: it was Rao Xinghai who brought up Nie Cai, which made him have nightmares.

The room should be warm, so he turned on the air conditioner before going to bed.The heating is still a few days away, but the cold air has swept across the city relentlessly tonight.

...should be warm.Shen Chunlan sneezed.He felt a chilly wind blowing in through the window.

"...What are you doing?" He looked up and found that the guinea pig was lying on the window and pushing hard, pushing the sliding window out of a crack.

Shen Chunlan turned on the bedside lamp, and couldn't help cursing: "My god, you really have a bad IQ, do you know how many times it's outside..."

He stopped before he finished speaking, staring at the crack of the window, dumbfounded.

The black mamba slipped in through the window, landed on the ground with a thud, twisted its body hastily, and said hello to Shen Chunlan.

The guinea pig lay on the edge of the window, heaving a sigh of relief, shaking its head and ears happily as if it had accomplished something important.

Shen Chunlan: "...What the hell are you doing! Are you opening the door to steal?!"

* Piris cattle: a primitive bison named after the Finnish biologist Piris.Piris, born in Pakistan in 1930 and then moved to Finland with his parents, is the first yeti recorded in history to receive modern education (then known as the "hairy savage").In the 50s, the double helix structure of DNA was discovered, and Pierris was the first biological scientist to conduct special human gene research. In 1965, through research on some "Yeti" genes including his own inland, Pierris discovered biological gene fragments that were very similar to the existing yak gene chains, and put forward a deduction: "Yeti" is very likely to retain the original bison However, how to fuse with human genes still needs to be studied.The inference caused an uproar in Europe, and Piris was purged from the religious community. In 1967, eight members of Piris's family were brutally murdered at home, leaving traces of religious sacrificial rituals at the scene. In 1971, a research team composed of countries in Central Asia and West Asia discovered bovine bone fossils at the junction of the Suleiman Mountains and the Hindu Kush Mountains, which confirmed the existence of Piris cattle and also confirmed Piris’s understanding of the "Yeti" gene. speculation.

The author has something to say:

Since the murderer surnamed Rao robbed our star actor Guinea Pig yesterday, today's program may make everyone feel heavy...

Welcome to "Meow Meow Meow Meow" brought to us by Comrade Bai Xiaoyuan from the Spiritual Adjustment Section of the Crisis Office

Bai Xiaoyuan came to the stage carrying a bottle of Lao Bai Gan: I heard there are 200 people in today's event?One cat per person, don't worry.

After drinking, Bai Xiaoyuan copied 500 sand cats in one breath.The theater was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.

Shen Chunlan: ...

He once again refused a reporter's interview about "theater directors use sand cats to attract guests and audiences, regardless of your feelings, and cheer for them, don't want mice, just want to suck cats".
