Origin

Chapter 11 Extinct Plants



Wu Zhongyuan nodded, Dean Wang's judgment was similar to Master's diagnosis back then, but more detailed, but even so, it was difficult to sort out the clues, because there were still not enough clues.

"Why are you asking this?" Dean Wang asked.

Wu Zhongyuan glanced at Dean Wang, but did not answer, not because he had the intention to hide it, but because he didn't know where to start.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan's hesitation, Dean Wang said, "I did an examination last time and found that your lungs have signs of recovery from the disease."

Wu Zhongyuan still didn't answer, and he didn't need to answer Dean Wang's words.

Since there was a driver, it was not convenient for the two of them to discuss too much. It didn't take long for the car to drive into a compound. This is an old building with many signs hanging at the door. , and some other research departments.

The building is not only old outside, but the facilities inside are also very old. There is no elevator in the seven floors, the corridors are very dark, and some rooms still have wooden doors.

Seeing Wu Zhongyuan frowning, Dean Wang said casually, "People who do scientific research don't care much about the office environment, they care about scientific research equipment. The equipment here is relatively advanced in China."

In a city, the two most popular people are not the number one or two in the county, but the chief of public security and the director of the hospital. Everyone knows why they are popular. As soon as President Wang arrives, the person in charge of the research institute immediately receives it in person. , arrange a special person to test the samples submitted for inspection, and then accompany President Wang to drink tea in the office and wait.

Wu Zhongyuan sat in the corner, fiddling with the mobile phone Lin Qingming gave him.

After waiting for nearly an hour, Dean Wang began to look at his watch. The person in charge of the research institute picked up the phone wisely and called the inspectors, urging them to hurry up.

After waiting for a long time, the inspection report has not been sent, and the person in charge went to urge it in person.

The office of the person in charge and the inspection department are on the same floor, but the person in charge did not come back after more than ten minutes. In the end, Dean Wang couldn't sit still and got up to check what happened. At this moment, the person in charge came back with his hands There are several inspection reports in it.

Although he hadn't seen the report yet, Wu Zhongyuan knew that the test results must be unexpected, because the person in charge had a puzzled look on his face.

After the person in charge sat down, he handed the report to Dean Wang, "President Wang, where did the samples for inspection come from?"

"Is there any problem?" Dean Wang asked casually.

"There is a problem," the person in charge nodded sternly. "This sample is woven from hemp fiber. Through the analysis and comparison of the hemp fiber, we found that the hemp material used in the sample does not belong to the five common cotton and hemp plants in modern times."

Dean Wang was looking at the inspection report. Hearing this, he looked up at the person in charge.

The person in charge added, "However, we have encountered similar materials before, and it is a test sample sent by the Archaeological Institute. This is a plant called flax, which appeared in the same period as flax, probably because of the climate. , This plant disappeared thousands of years ago, and the samples that are visible now are the remains of grave goods found in archaeology."

Dean Wang did not show surprise, and nodded calmly.

Dean Wang's calmness surprised the person in charge, and said, "This kind of fabric should not be preserved until now, because once the funeral objects are unearthed, they will quickly oxidize and decay, and it is impossible to be so complete."

"Has it ever been done..."

Before Dean Wang finished speaking, the person in charge interrupted him, "Yes, the reason for the delay is so long,

Is doing carbon fourteen. "

"What's the result?" Dean Wang asked.

The person in charge had a very strange expression, he hesitated for a long time before he said, "No more than twenty years."

"Are you sure?" Dean Wang asked.

"Yes," the person in charge nodded. "In addition to the main material, the fabric is also mixed with a small amount of woody plant fibers. The preliminary identification should be white sandalwood. The carbon 14 test results of the two materials differ by more than 200 years."

Dean Wang didn't quite understand, "Why is there such a big difference?"

"The growth time of the two plants is different, and the dating is not for the fabric, but the material itself." The person in charge explained.

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Director Zhou." Director Wang stood up.

"President Wang, where did the samples for inspection come from?" the person in charge asked after him.

"I'm not too sure, but a friend entrusted me." Dean Wang went out, did not go downstairs, but walked to the laboratory.

Retrieving the patch, the three went downstairs.

"President Wang, can you keep a part of the sample submitted for inspection?" The person in charge discussed, to be precise, asking for it.

"I'll go back and ask my friends for advice." Dean Wang did not agree.

Walking downstairs, Dean Wang asked again, "Are you sure this hemp plant is extinct?"

"Not only the millet has become extinct, but I have never seen the weaving techniques used in the fabric itself before," said the person in charge.

Dean Wang thanked them, and the two got into the car and returned.

On the way back, neither of them spoke. President Wang kept his eyes closed, and Wu Zhongyuan kept frowning.

Back at the hospital, President Wang handed the report to Wu Zhongyuan, "I have something to deal with. Xiao Yang will accompany you to the school to get your luggage. I will find you later."

"Okay." Wu Zhongyuan returned the report to President Wang.

President Wang took the report, smiled at Wu Zhongyuan, opened the door and got off.

The resident students didn't have much stuff, and the car was pulled in a single trip.

I don't know if it was because of the large number of rooms in the hospital, or because of President Wang's personal account, the high-level section chief in charge of logistics arranged for him a staff dormitory, one room and one living room, air conditioner, refrigerator, separate toilet, and kitchen utensils for cooking. Anything.

After settling down, Wu Zhongyuan didn't go to Dean Wang. If Dean Wang finished his own affairs, he would come to him on his own initiative.

It is also possible that Dean Wang has nothing urgent to deal with at all, just like him, he wants to be alone and sort out the complicated and fragmented clues.

After being busy for a long time, I was also a little tired. Just as I was about to lie down to rest, there was a knock on the door. When I opened the door, I found a man in his thirties with a bag of rice and a bucket of oil in his hands.

Without waiting for him to speak, the person who came came reported to his home, 'Hello little brother, my name is Huang Hailin, I am from the logistics department of the hospital, if there is anything I can help, feel free to ask. ’

When you're done, put your things down, turn around and leave.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't understand what was going on for a while, and when he regained his senses and chased after him with something, he was nowhere to be seen.

As soon as I closed the door, I knocked on the door again, and when I opened the door, it was a young guy, "My name is Jiang Yanwen, I'm in charge of the cafeteria. This is your meal card. You've already paid for it. Keep these two cigarettes for you."

"What are you doing? Besides, I don't know how to smoke." Wu Zhongyuan hurriedly refused.

With a push, the person who came to leave his things, turned around and ran away.

With the lessons learned, Wu Zhongyuan would not dare to open the door if someone knocked on the door again. This was all for President Wang. He was personally arranged by President Wang, and the driver of President Wang personally picked it up. I don't know. I thought what was the relationship between the two of them.

In the evening, two women who were carrying things came and knocked on the door. Wu Zhongyuan didn't dare to open it. He was muttering as he left. ''It's not wrong, it must be. I heard that the samples sent to the province for the paternity test dare not stay there, and the test report is not shown to others. If it wasn't for him, how could he be so cautious? ’

Hearing the two chatting nonsense, Wu Zhongyuan was so angry that he resisted not chasing after him and scolding him. No wonder so many people came to confuse him. It turned out that he was the illegitimate son of Dean Wang.

After thinking about it, I felt that I couldn't stay here. In order to keep secrets for him, Dean Wang kept many details from outsiders, and it was reasonable for them to speculate randomly.

But after thinking about it, it's not possible to leave, it's just like having a guilty conscience. I'm not afraid of shadows, so I still have to stay here.

After eight o'clock in the evening, the captain of the security came and gave Wu Zhongyuan a uniform. Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan was unwilling to wear this suit, he didn't force him, so he gave him a 'dispatch' armband and took him to familiarize himself with the working environment.

This hospital is a Grade III A hospital with advanced and complete medical equipment. There are many people who come to see the doctor, most of whom come by car. Wu Zhongyuan's job is to direct these vehicles to park them in the corresponding parking spaces, and to ensure that The emergency ambulance's parking space is free and the entry route is unobstructed. The working hours are from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm every day. As for the salary, the security captain did not say, because he did not know that the high-level section chief of logistics had to decide.

When the security captain brought Wu Zhongyuan to get acquainted with the situation, Dean Wang came over from a distance. The security captain went over to say hello to Dean Wang, and left with interest.

"How is it?" Dean Wang paced over.

"Very good, thank you Dean Wang." Wu Zhongyuan thanked sincerely.

"Let's go out for a walk." President Wang walked towards the door of the hospital.

Wu Zhongyuan followed.

"Zhongyuan, what do you think of this matter?" Dean Wang asked.

Wu Zhongyuan knew that Dean Wang was referring to his own background, but he didn't know how to answer.

Dean Wang added, "I didn't hide the results of various tests and tests from you. I believe you should already have a judgment in your heart."

Wu Zhongyuan still did not speak.

Dean Wang walked to the steps in front of the library and sat down, "Tell me what you think."

"What do you think?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Dean Wang smiled, "Is there anything you haven't told me?"

"What do you mean?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Dean Wang said, "I called a few old classmates who were engaged in scientific research in the afternoon and asked them some questions about physics. Your situation has a reasonable explanation, but this reasonable explanation is not yet available. Some places don't make sense."

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan still didn't mean to speak, Dean Wang continued, "You are probably going the wrong way, and someone went the wrong way with you."

When Dean Wang said the words "physics", Wu Zhongyuan had already guessed what his judgment was, "The person who came with me is dead."

Dean Wang didn't seem to be surprised by such an answer. After nodding, he said, "The existence of wormholes has been fully demonstrated theoretically by famous physicists such as Einstein and Hawking, but so far there has been no The real case, at least there is no public record."

"You suspect that I don't belong here?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Dean Wang nodded, "Mr. Hu Shi once said that those who engage in research should make bold assumptions and verify carefully. At present, apart from the time distortion caused by the wormhole, there is no other reason to explain the abnormality of your blood and the ancient tattoos on your body. ," said Dean Wang, and took out the patch from his pocket, "and this, this is an ironclad proof that it has been identified through scientific methods."

"If I don't belong here, where do I belong?" Wu Zhongyuan was at a loss. He knew the black hole theory proposed by Einstein and Hawking, but never thought that such a thing would happen to him.

Dean Wang looked at the patch in his hand, "It's hard to determine the exact age of this species of millet and hemp, but there are no funerary clothing of this material in the tomb excavations of the Xia and Shang dynasties."

"What do you mean?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"You originally lived in the ancient times before the Xia Dynasty..."
