Although the machine did look more fun, Li Xingkong still didn't have the idea of sitting inside and trying it out, after all, it looked too eerie.
With the two clowns leading the way, Li Xingkong followed behind the leaping machine, heading towards the location of the Longzhou branch.
Although this hopping machine looks awkward, it's actually quite fast when it's in operation. It looks like a giant grasshopper, and it can easily traverse any terrain. The only problem is that the people who made it didn't consider the issue of shock absorption at all. You can tell from the thumping sounds coming from the box where people sit that the two people inside must be very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the Longzhou branch wasn't too far away. Following this comical machine, we continued until we were almost at the Qilian Mountains, at which point the machine turned around and headed into one of the valleys.
Li Xingkong followed closely behind. As soon as they entered the valley, it was clearly different from the outside world. Outside, it was still a desolate place, but the ecology in this valley was much better, and it looked like they had entered a forest.
After traveling a few steps through the valley, they saw a clearly man-made clearing appear hidden in the jungle. The zipline was quite nimble, taking a few leaps and landings before coming to a stop in the clearing. Then, two people climbed out of the machine.
"If I go out with you again, I'll change my surname from Ge."
Getting up from the ground, dusting himself off, Ge Baoqi was still complaining.
"Trying to run away? Next time I go out, I'll definitely make sure you come too, heh."
After Ji Qiu got up, he went to check if there was anything wrong with his precious machine. He couldn't be bothered to listen to Ge Baoqi's complaints.
Before the two could move much, Li Xingkong followed closely behind and landed on the open ground.
"Your base is really well hidden."
Before landing, Li Xingkong looked around. The area was indeed well concealed, with no signs of human activity.
"Sigh, it's because there are so many weirdos in the base that it's so well hidden."
Ge Baoqi rubbed his buttocks and said to Li Xingkong.
"Come this way."
The two stopped the machine and led Li Xingkong onto a small path. After walking along the path for a short while, a silver-white base appeared in front of them.
The base is quite large, with only one side exposed; the rest is embedded in the mountainside, making it completely invisible unless viewed from a specific direction.
As the two were about to open the Li Xingkong Li Xingkong, he heard a commotion coming from inside. It sounded quite chaotic, as if something had gone wrong.
"Um, do you guys have a daily running exercise routine at this base?"
This was Li Xingkong's first time here, and he had no idea whether the sound was normal.
"No, these are just a few lazybones; none of them like running and jumping."
As Ge Baoqi spoke, he took out his card, swiped it, and unlocked the door. His hand had barely touched the doorknob, and before he could even push the door open, the door moved first.
The door was pushed open by a tremendous force from inside, and Ge Baoqi, who was about to open the door, was also thrown into the air, flying about 5 meters away and rolling several times on the ground.
As Ge Baoqi was thrown into the air, the gate was smashed open, and a much stronger bull rushed out, muttering as it ran.
"Get lost! I'm a human being, I don't want to have a baby with a cow! If I wanted to, I'd give birth to you!"
That's right, the cow was speaking human language, and judging from its appearance, it seemed to be running away from an arranged marriage.
The door was flung open, and Old Ox only glanced at who he had bumped into. When he saw that it was Ge Baoqi rolling on the ground, a look of satisfaction even appeared on Old Ox Niu's face.
"That unscrupulous businessman deserves it!"
After cursing a couple of times, Old Ox prepared to head straight into the woods.
When did cows learn to talk?
Li Xingkong was a little confused. What was going on? He didn't remember ever handling this thing before, so how could the bull talk?
The Old Ox twisted into the woods in a few steps, and at that moment, the people behind it came running out of the base, panting. They had various tools for catching the ox, but they didn't seem to have any effect.
"Commander Li!"
The man who had chased the cow was about to go into the woods to look for it when he spotted Li Xingkong and recognized him.
Li Xingkong looked closely and found the person's figure in his memory.
Ji Nanzhi was the first scientist on the moon to sense Spiritual Qi. Li Xingkong remembered that he was studying things like beef cattle at the time; he was a zoologist.
"You are... Ji Nanzhi?"
"I didn't expect you to remember me. It's me. After sensing the Spiritual Qi, I came back here to do research."
Ji Nanzhi was very happy that Li Xingkong still remembered him.
"I remember you studied beef cattle, right? What is this...?"
Li Xingkong pointed to the woods; the cow was long gone, and finding it would probably be difficult.
"After gaining Spiritual Qi, I became curious about this thing. In addition, I also have some interest in biology, so I modified the cow's head. But when I modified it, I used my own brain as a reference, and that's when the problem arose. The cow doesn't think of itself as a cow. It thinks of itself as a person. It has no interest in cows or anything like that. Its daily hobby is scrolling through Douyin and looking at pretty girls."
"Oh, this, your idea is really out of the ordinary."
Li Xingkong was completely baffled by Ji Nanzhi's move; how could someone give a cow a human brain?
"So what's this now?"
Since this cow has a human brain, it should be highly intelligent and shouldn't be able to escape like this.
"It's not that I want to know if his brain development will be hereditary, so I want him to have a baby."
Ji Nanzhi's words were short, but they sounded truly hellish.
"But the problem is, this guy really thinks he's human, not a cow. He thinks that me making him have calves is discrimination, that I'm forcing him. He insists on finding a beautiful human, but that's definitely not going to work. I can get approval for cows as experimental subjects, but not for humans."
"You're talking nonsense! You're the cow, your whole family are cows!"
The talking cow hadn't gone far; upon hearing Ji Nanzhi's words, it even turned back and started arguing back.
"Damn it, Old Ox, that kick was really hard."
Ge Baoqi sat up, rubbing his back, and cursed irritably.
"You shameless businessman, how dare you say that? Your so-called aphrodisiac powder almost made me lose my virginity to a bull. I'm lucky I didn't kill you."
The Old Ox exhaled two puffs of white steam from its nose, its mouth agape.
"That's a veterinary fertility aid, not some aphrodisiac powder, it's fine."
Ge Baoqi felt indignant about the medicine he had prepared for himself; it was a miraculous medicine, how could it be as bad as it was described?
"In short, I'm a human being, not a cow. If you try to make me breed with you again, I'll gore you to death!"
Old Ox was not polite at all.
