Chapter 56: Doubts
"Xiao Cui, have you felt like something is wrong with your spine lately?"
When Xiang Shan asked this sentence, he was actually a little apprehensive in his heart.
He felt something was wrong with his neck today.
Specifically, when I knocked over the giant man who fell from the sky with one punch, I felt a tingling sensation in the back of my neck.
This is something unusual. The receptors on the outside of his spine have been stripped away, and even if he has pain, it should be "phantom pain".
But when the fist collided with the soles of the giant man's feet, he did feel a pain in the back of his neck - a pain far from the "phantom pain".
The giant man weighed more than five tons after all. No matter how clever his strength is, it will eventually produce a backlash.
And it is normal for this anti-shock force to penetrate through the shock-absorbing system and act on the part of the organism.
But feeling "pain" is really abnormal.
After all, Xiang Shan doesn't have the nerves to feel pain.
This made him wonder if there was something wrong with his spine.
But he clearly remembered that the place where he felt pain was not the part of his spine that was connected, but the position that was higher.
This made Xiang Shan wonder if it was because his spine itself was damaged, or ...... The level of doing surgery by yourself is actually two knives.
Indeed, Xiang Shan remembers that he has taken the qualification certificate.
But he remembered more recently.
In order to gain the power to "freely decide on a large amount of money", he and others, including Yagmow, teamed up to start a business. That company later became a supergiant that determined the direction of human technology and cooperated with various major powers. He is a top scientist and a super-rich man.
But in a sense, herein lies the problem.
To obtain a doctor's license, you often need a bachelor's degree or higher in medicine, as well as one year of work in a medical institution under the guidance of a professional doctor.
But unfortunately, these conditions were for him in the second half of the 21st century......
It's pretty simple.
First of all, at that time, he was one of the world's leading scientists, the leader of a mega project, the wholesaler of the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine, and a close friend of the "father of biology in the new era". With all kinds of halos, as long as he doesn't make any too uncommon sense remarks, then any medical university will be happy to give him a degree.
Many famous scholars have many different degrees, but most of those degrees are honorary degrees awarded to them by universities in recognition of their contributions, so those bigwigs have no time to take exams and defend them one by one.
Honorary degrees can be awarded for "achieving a high level of academic achievement" or "substantially advancing the field in other ways than academics".
And as long as you go through the process symbolically to the mountain, it is very simple to get an ordinary degree.
As for the proof of work in a medical institution......
Unfortunately, he has a medical facility under his hands......
Xiangshan's organization has established cooperative projects with many hospitals. To be precise, not "he works in a medical institution" but "a medical institution works under him".
Now think about it...... It might be very boring!
This process may be a little problematic, but in front of his other identity - "top rich", it does not seem to be a problem.
As for the taxes he pays each year and his status in the academic world, the institution that issued the certificate is willing to turn a blind eye.
Xiang Shan felt that according to his character, as long as he relied on hard power to pass the final exam, he didn't seem to care too much about the process.
But ah, but......
What if this set of "maybe a little greasy" process has buried hidden dangers in their own medical technology?
For example, I haven't gone through the necessary "missing and filling stage" or anything......
You'll have to ask!
That's why Xiang Shan asked this question.
Cui Ji didn't know why, and said: "The seniors are exquisite. I had some phantom pain a few days ago, but it has healed these days, and the postoperative effect is really good. ”
Xiang Shan said: "Then when you exert yourself, do you feel it...... Tingling sensation or something? ”
"Tingling?" Cui Ji wondered: "How can there be a tingling sensation?" The seniors laughed. ”
Xiang Shan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's right." It doesn't look like it's my craft. ”
Cui Yu was puzzled: "Senior, what is wrong?" ”
Xiang Shan nodded: "When I went out today, I had a little skirmish with a gangster, and I encountered an enemy of several tons, and I used my strength to break ...... That being said, but the 'skill' of dialing that 'vigorous' is also a punch for me. Maybe my spine was shaken, and I felt a tingling sensation. ”
"Tingling? Shouldn't that be...... I don't feel that way at all. ”
Huang Coupling said: "The younger generation is a little familiar with the technique of Qi Huang, but I have heard of similar symptoms. If the seniors don't dislike it, I can take a look at it for the seniors. ”
This is something that needs to be trusted.
After all, the outer armor of a prosthetic person can block X-rays and other means that rely on fluoroscopy in different frequency bands, so in order to do a simple inspection, the outer armor must be removed.
However, what Huang Couplet proposed to examine was the spine, which is also one of the "key points" for the benchmark person. If it is controlled in a hurry, the combat power of this prosthetic body will be reduced by one percent, to say the least.
Xiang Shan quickly switched the prosthetic body to remote mode, and then said, "That's troublesome." ”
The long-range mode is not only a little slower in the transmission of information, but more importantly, it is afraid of means such as metal particle aerosols against electromagnetic waves.
Xiang Shan was sure that if he threw a Tiehua somewhere when he was being inspected, he could also react quickly and kick it out of the window.
The outer armor of the Xiangshan Prosthetic is divided into many individual armor plates, each of which has the ability to move independently. I saw the armor on his back open one after another, revealing a metallic spine.
Huang Coupleguang stretched out his finger and lightly tapped the part that leaned towards the neck of the mountain: "Dare to ask seniors, do you feel like this?" ”
Xiang Shan was silent for a moment and asked, "Do your fingers have any special functions?" Like sending electromagnetic waves or something? ”
Huang Couplelight shook his head: "The performance of this prosthetic hand is very poor, and it does not have that kind of effect. ”
"So ......"
"It shouldn't be, right?"
Xiang Shan said.
He does have a "touch".
But this is unusual.
Because he shouldn't be touched.
The non-central nervous system of this body has been removed. Not every nerve cell has sensation. It should be said that only nerve cells, which differentiate into "receptors", can generate nerve signals in response to surrounding stimuli.
He shouldn't have had a sense of touch.
Huang Coupling said: "Well, this is just an ordinary regenerative abnormal hyperplasia of the nervous system, resulting in a small number of nerve cells attached to the spine, not a big problem......
Xiang Shan exclaimed, "What? ”
Huang Coupleguang was taken aback: "Did I say something wrong?" Senior ......"
"No, no, no, you didn't say anything wrong...... I just didn't think I would get it. Xiang Shan said: "Take a picture immediately and send it to me......"
After Huang Coupling finished shooting, Xiang Shan quickly closed the outer armor and carefully browsed the photo sent by Huang Couple. Due to the limited level of the xanthea-coupled prosthetic eye, it was not possible to capture a clear cell structure.
But Xiang Shan did see that on the surface of the signal receiver connected to the side of his cervical spine, there was a small growth tissue.
Huang Couple: "Indeed, this disease is quite rare, and it only attracted attention decades ago. It is said that due to the non-standardization of gene therapy, some chivalrous patients show abnormal repairing hyperplasia in the nervous system. This growth can accumulate over decades and cause this symptom. Actually, it's not a big problem, as long as you clean it carefully so that the nerves don't cover the signal receiving device......"
"Wait a minute, Sister Huang......" Yuki suddenly stood up and asked, "You mean...... How long will it take? ”
Huang Coupleguang said: "Decades of accumulation, right? Before the Battle of Sublimation, those old-timers didn't seem to have paid attention to this kind of problem, and it wasn't until after the Battle of Sublimation that the first batch of old knights discovered this kind of thing. It's just that if the nervous system and the circuit are randomly connected, it will cause chaos, so it is generally treated as a disease. ”
Speaking of this, the chivalrous woman couldn't help but glance at Yuki enviously.
This old-timer's qualifications are even deeper than expected. It is a great blessing for this little brother to be able to worship under this hero.
Yuki glanced at the mountain suspiciously.
Decades? No, absolutely not. Yuki knew very well that Xiangshan still had a head left a few months ago. The nerve signal receiving device was also installed in the base of Z organization.
If it is really a routine regenerative dysplasia, there is absolutely no possibility of developing it now.
It's just that Yuki didn't say it.
After these days, he probably understands why Xiang Shan wants to hide his real name from Cui Ji and the others.
Just as Master himself said a few months ago, Master may have really been the most powerful chivalrous man in the past, so powerful that it was dangerous to say his name.
If it weren't for Xiang Shan's own intention, then Yuki wouldn't have leaked this information at will.
Xiang Shan thought more.
He realized that he had a greater sense of disobedience.
For example, his brain only needs a small amount of water and electricity to function for a long time.
However, when he was just dug up by Yuki, he ate a lot of copper sugar and other nutrients.
I didn't realize it at the time, but now I want to ...... This may be due to the abnormal functioning of his nervous system.
He needed more nutrition to repair the nerve damage.
And from Huang Couple's words, he can draw a conclusion - even among chivalrous, this kind of abnormality is rare.
But at the same time, Xiang Shan inevitably thought of another force.
Demon Cult.
