The previous moment may be blue sky and white clouds, but the next moment may be dark clouds rolling and pouring rain.

This is exactly the situation at this moment. Just in a blink of an eye, there are dark clouds outside, lightning flashes and thunder, and the pouring rain soon begins to pour down. The huge rain drops continue to hit the glass of the spacecraft, and then a water curtain is formed on the glass. To make the scenery outside look more hazy.

啧啧 "Oh, this scenery is really good ~"

Li Jingxuan looked at the outside scenery. In the dark world, with the satisfaction of the lightning between the sky suddenly turned bright as day.

Li Jingxuan could even clearly see on a tall tree, a group of apes hiding under the tree trembling, the heavy rain in the sky was like the Milky Way pouring down, it was too big, and it formed a water curtain, like a waterfall flying .

"This AIDS is a resource from Africa. It is said that it first appeared on apes and was finally transmitted to humans. Do you think we might find something that can cure AIDS here?"

Liu Daoming has no mood to admire the scenery outside. It's been a few days since I came here, and all kinds of scenery are already tired of looking.

The main thing he came to the tropical rainforest of Africa this time was to find medicines that can treat AIDS. He and Li Jingxuan have been studying AIDS for several years.

Since they were studying in college, two people have been studying this thing, and even went to space and the moon to study the changes of HIV in a vacuum and microgravity environment, and published many related research papers.

But until now, the two have not been able to develop a drug that can truly treat AIDS, so the two also set their sights on Africa and this vast land.

Africa is known as the place of origin of human beings. The climate here is hot all year round, and there are many kinds of animals and plants. Under the unique geographical environment, Africa is the birthplace of various diseases.

In the early days of the great voyage of the earth, when Europeans were just beginning to colonize in Africa, they dared not go deep into the inland areas of Africa. They could only build some strongholds along the coast and along the river for colonial plunder.

This is not because African black uncles are very capable of defeating European colonists, but because of the heat in Africa, there are many diseases, viruses, poisonous insects, poisonous snakes and so on.

The local black uncles have been able to adapt to the environment here after a long period of evolution. However, the colonists from Europe could not adapt under such an environment and suffered heavy casualties.

That is, later, with the continuous development of European medical technology, especially the emergence of microscopes, and further research on bacteria and viruses, European talents can gradually penetrate this ancient land for colonial rule.

After research by scientists, AIDS is also generally believed to originate in Africa. The source is a chimpanzee carrying the SIV virus. This SIV virus has become the ancestor of the HIV virus. The HIV virus evolved based on the SIV virus.

People in Africa have eaten chimpanzees carrying the SIV virus and infected the virus. The virus mutated in the human body and eventually became the HIV virus that made the world smell.

道 Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan, who have been studying HIV for many years, also expressed support for this view, so in order to be able to develop drugs to treat HIV virus, the two also entered the tropical rain forest.

"I do not know either."

Li Jingxuan smiled and shook his head.

不过 "However, new discoveries can be made every day, and we are not in vain."

这 "This is, tomorrow we will catch some chimpanzees and see if the chimps in this area carry the SIV virus."

Liu Daoming nodded and looked outside.

The heavy rain came quickly, and they walked very fast. The two had just finished their meals, and the pouring rain on the outside disappeared cleanly. The bright moon began to appear, and a hazy layer of veil was sprinkled on this rainforest. The rain forest also began to think of bursts of screams, as if celebrating the passing of heavy rain.

一 Liu Daoming got up early the next morning.

I came to the outside of the anti-gravity spacecraft, the air was exceptionally fresh, and it was in the rain forest itself. Last night, it was raining heavily. The air was just shocked by taking a breath.

I soon had breakfast, and Liu Daoming with his team started to move in the rain forest again.

"Where did the apes see last night?"

In the lush tropical rain forest, Liu Daoming searched from time to time among the tall trees above his head while holding a telescope. The ape's hesitant voice came from his ear, but he could not find them.

"Here ~"

"Chasing ~"

"Anesthetize a few with an anesthesia gun and draw a little of their blood."

Liu Daoming is constantly pursuing this group of apes in the rain forest. This gray-haired ape does not look much different from other apes. Liu Daoming only treats them as the most common apes.

It was more than ten minutes after the lameness. Liu Daoming and others followed this group of apes to a relatively empty area. In the center of this area, there was a very thick tree.

大 The diameter of this big tree is more than ten meters, hundreds of meters high, very thick, and the crown is very large. The vines wrapped around the trunk are thick with adult arms, and they are full of red flowers.

花朵 The red color of this flower is not ordinary red, but the kind that is so red that it seems to drip out. It looks like blood, and it's red, like a flame.

At the same time, the big tree was filled with red fruits. The red fruits were only the size of hawthorn and delicate and dripping, which made people want to pick a few.

"What tree is this?"

道 Liu Daoming, Li Jingxuan and others carefully observed this tall tree. Such tall trees are rare in this primitive rain forest.

More importantly, this tree has never been seen before, and this red flower, red fruit.

大家 "Be careful, I haven't found this tree in the database. It should be a species that has not been found. The red flowers and fruits should be highly toxic."

景 Li Jingxuan used the virtual machine that he carried to do a strength search. He could not find information about this tree in the database, nor about this flower, this fruit.

However, in the wilderness, the brighter things are more terrible, just like fungi. Most bright red mushrooms are poisonous mushrooms.

"Those apes are eating this red fruit ~"

道 Liu Daoming looked at the top of the tree with a telescope. Soon, he couldn't help crying. The group of apes that he and others were tracking was eating red fruits on the tree.

"咻 ~~"

With a few small gunshots, the apes quickly wobbled, and then fell down.

大家 "Hurry up and collect samples and record everything here."

Liu Daoming, Li Jingxuan and others started to get busy.

"This big tree has a history of at least a thousand years. As for how many years, you have to go back to the laboratory for testing before you can know accurately ~"

"Ancient tree like this is really rare. The point is that this tree looks very healthy."

景 Li Jingxuan carefully observed this ancient tree, very vigorous, the traces of years appeared very clearly on it, and a sense of vicissitudes came.

I took out a short knife and stabbed the trunk gently, as if piercing into the animal's body, a red liquid like blood appeared.

我 "I'm going ~ This tree is still fine ~"

Li Jingxuan was startled, and then he took out the vessel and collected the red liquid from the old tree.

"Is it the Dragon Blood Tree?"

Liu Daoming thought and said.

"No ~~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Dracaena is just a kind of potted plant, it is impossible to grow so large, and the shape, leaves, flowers, fruits, etc. of this tree are not correct, absolutely Not a dragon's blood tree. "

Then, Liu Daoming shook his head very quickly. Before coming to this tropical rain forest, Liu Daoming did in-depth research on various plants, and he was also very clear about various plants and so on.

The team of Liu Daoming and Li Jingxuan kept busy around this big tree. Some people collected and took pictures constantly, took pictures of everything in this big tree, and even recorded the surrounding environment, plants and so on. For comparison.

Some people collect red flowers, red forehead fruits, and even cut out some trees and vines to make indications; others sample the surrounding soil to analyze the trace elements in the soil, and even small bugs in the soil. And so they all took back some for research.

The entire team has been busy for more than an hour, collecting all kinds of samples.

"Going back, I have a hunch that we may have a lot of gains today."

After seeing everyone busy, Liu Daoming also waved his hands. He was really in a hurry. Every time he encountered a new strange plant, he would feel extremely excited. He wanted to know the characteristics of this plant and what it has early. Medical value.

PS: ask for tickets, various requests ~
