Notes on the Hunt for a Corpse

Later, the Chengdu zombies, Lop Nur zombies, and Daba Mountain Rakshasa that went viral on the Tianya Forum were all spooky nonsense. No one went deep into the source of these rumors, and no one knew that as early as the late 1980s, a top-secret red-stamped order had sent a team of people into the center of all the rumors. I had just graduated from the biology department of a university in the south that year, and I was separated from my original unit by a transfer order. I followed the team into the frozen soil rift valley of Daba Mountain. To the outside world, we are a geological science expedition team, but when I took out the first tissue sample with abnormal activity under the ice, I realized that the "walking corpse" we were looking for was far from a simple biological mutation. Those legends that are regarded as lies are just the tip of the iceberg of a huge secret. And we are the ones sent to cut through the ice.
