Chapter Twenty-Five: Yang Tie
Yin Stone?
Lin Ping's eyes lit up, this word seemed to have been recorded in the "Book of Hundred Schools of Master", but it was ignored by himself, because the words and sentences recorded in the book were very barren, and it was only brought over in a few simple sentences: the pole of yin becomes a stone, its quality is unknown, and only Yang Tie Ke can overcome it.
At that time, Lin Ping thought that this was just the content of the yin and yang metaphysics mentioned by the Taoists, and it was nothing more than some things that the Taoists said about the extreme yin and the extreme yang, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Qiu Fenghui went on to explain: "The yin stone mentioned here is not the stone medicine such as gypsum, talc or cold water stone that is now mentioned in archaeology, this is a proper noun. The records of Yin Stone are very scarce in Chinese and foreign archaeological data and geological reference materials, and I have looked through countless foreign materials, but I have not found any relevant information about Yin Stone and Yang Iron, or even similar ones. As for the name Yin Shi, it is not what we did, but it is recorded in the book. β
"Dean Qiu, can we just get to the point?" Lin Ping had to interrupt, these people engaged in scientific research talked endlessly about professional knowledge, and they didn't know when they would be able to talk about the information they wanted to know.
Qiu Fenghui smiled, didn't care, and continued: "Then let me say this, the Yin Stone Specimen in your hand and the Yang Iron Specimen I brought you are not from our earth, but from the alien geological stone, can you understand this?" β
"What? Extraterrestrial? β
Qiu Fenghui's words made Lin Ping and Yu Chengdu stand up in surprise, they didn't expect that strange stone to be something from an alien planet?
If that's the case, then this time it's a problem.
"Don't get excited, listen to me." Qiu Fenghui seemed to expect such a big reaction from the two, and raised his hand to signal the two to sit down.
"The biggest reason why there are few records about Yin Stone is that we don't know how Yin Stone came to the earth. After research and analysis, we can roughly conclude that Yang iron is from meteoric iron, but the content is extremely rare. We also accidentally obtained these stone chip specimens, and after testing and research, we found that they contained some chemical elements that do not belong to our earth, and even said that the characteristics and properties of some elements have not been mentioned in the journal Science. When we found out, we were so excited that we reported this important discovery and asked for funding for further research. It's a pity that our geological research, like archaeological research, is not taken seriously, so this research has come to an abrupt end. Thankfully, we've been able to get some results. β
Lin Ping's mood gradually became excited, since the "Book of Hundred Schools of Masters" said that Yang Tie can restrain Yin Shi, then there must be some connections in it, knowing the principle, then he can also master the method of treating Zhang Yunxi and Qi Zhuangzhuang.
"Let me tell you a story first, in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, that is, on May 30, 1626, there was a mysterious explosion near the gunpowder magazine of Wang Gongchang in the southwest corner of the capital at that time, a huge fireball fell from the sky, countless houses were destroyed, tens of thousands of people were killed and injured, the sky collapsed and countless houses sank, and the power of this explosion was even less than the detonation of an atomic bomb. It is said that this is a natural disaster, so there is nothing surprising. The blame is that both the dead and those who survived the explosion were either uncovered or disheveled, and the reason for this is still a mystery. It wasn't until I participated in the study of Yang Iron and linked the two that I concluded that the cause of this phenomenon at that time might be because the fireball contained extremely pure Yang Iron. And in some folk miscellaneous conversations, the aftermath of those disasters is also extremely secretive, and there are not too many descriptions. However, there is a sentence in the Ming Dynasty historian Ji Liuqi's "Ming Ji Beiluo" that 'like a Ganoderma lucidum, rising to the sky, and dispersing over time', I guess it should be the piece of yang iron, wrapped in meteorites. β
"Wait, Dean Qiu, let me interrupt, what does those people have to do with Yang Tie because they are disheveled?" Yu Cheng asked curiously.
"That's what we did." Qiu Fenghui excitedly took his index finger and lit the "dong dong" sound on the table.
"After we studied and analyzed the positive iron, we found that there is a magnetic field in the positive iron, and it may not be accurate to say that it is a magnetic field.
Because this magnetic field is different from the yin and yang poles that we distinguish on earth, but it is somewhat similar. Let me put it simply, because there is a balance between the yin and yang poles, nature and the human body can maintain a relative stability, which is the effect of the magnetic field. And Yang Iron is like an anode, Yin Stone is like a cathode, of course, this is my speculation, and I will not be able to determine it until I have studied and tested your specimen.
If you have been in contact with the male iron for a long time, then the human body will generate a magnetic field that does not belong to itself, which is achieved by the magnetic field of the male iron pulling the delicate balance of the body's magnetic field, which is different from the magnetic field of the yin and yang poles obtained by the human body itself on the earth, but the effect is very similar. It just makes people very excited, like taking a lot of stimulants.
Therefore, I judge that the explosion in the sixth year of the Apocalypse, the reason why those people were disheveled, it is very likely that there is an extremely pure Yang Iron in the fireball, which caused these people to be overexcited and excited, and they took off their clothes and tore them apart, and it is even possible that they died under the extremely strong magnetic field formed by Yang Iron, which is the similarity between the two.
The difference lies in the fact that the magnetic field of the human body is affected by the balance of the yin and yang magnetic fields formed by the north and south poles of the earth, that is to say, the human body will automatically adjust this magnetic field, so that the human body can achieve a balance and stay healthy, but the magnetic field caused by yang iron and yin stone is not balanced by the human body, only affected by yang iron and yin stone, which is their difference. β
Qiu Fenghui's voice was a little hoarse after speaking, and he paused and took a big sip of water from his cup.
These words sounded a little difficult to understand in Lin Ping and Yu Cheng, they were not serious science students, and they didn't know anything about magnetic fields, especially Lin Ping, let him recite the messy wild history anecdotes, when it comes to science, then forget it.
However, after listening to it for a long time, I probably understood that if you want to eliminate the influence of Yin Stone, you must find Yang Iron to balance.
That's good news, at least for now.
Lin Ping nodded after hearing this, as if he understood, but in fact, he didn't understand at all.
"May I ask Dean Qiu, if the human body is affected by Yang Iron, can it be balanced with Yin Stone to eliminate the influence and make people return to normal?"
Qiu Fenghui shook his head, which extinguished the hope that had ignited in Lin Ping's heart a little, and he said: "This is uncertain, because my research results are only limited to Yang Iron, and a large part of them are also speculations, and there is no way to verify each other without in-depth research on Yin Stone." Moreover, many of the materials are obtained from some ancient miscellaneous theories, which cannot be used as a scientific basis. But in theory, it should be possible. β
With the latter sentence, Lin Ping's mood became excited again, he stood up and held the table, and used honorifics: "Dean Qiu, do you have time recently?" I hope you will study the Yin Stone as soon as possible, this is a matter of human life and is very important. β
"What?" This time it was Qiu Fenghui who was surprised: "Could it be that you have friends who have come into contact with a large amount of Yin Stone or Yang Iron?" β
Lin Ping did not hide Qiu Fenghui, and explained Zhang Xiaoxi and Qi Zhuangzhuang's illness in detail, as for Taoist metaphysics, these people who are engaged in scientific research will definitely not believe in Taoist metaphysics.
And at present, the dean who understands Yin Shi and Yang Tie is the dean in front of him, and all his hopes can only be pinned on him, if he doesn't have a trick, if he wants to try it at that time, he will take the lives of Zhang Xiaoxi and Qi Zhuangzhuang to do experiments.
When it comes to life, Lin Ping doesn't dare to joke.
After listening to Lin Ping, Qiu Fenghui looked at Lin Ping with an embarrassed face and said, "Alas, young man, I won't hide it from you, it's not that I don't want to study, it's really unconditional." As for me, I don't like to study mainstream things, but I'm very interested in these side doors, and almost all of my monthly salary is smashed on this. Look at these stones on my desk, they look inconspicuous, they are all rare treasures. You asked me to study Yin Stone, but there are specimens but there is no fund, and the above will not easily allocate money down, and there is no way to study it. β
These Lin Ping naturally also understand that the current scientific research is like this, what is needed is immediate income or honor, such as geology and archaeology, which cannot be eaten and cannot support the faΓ§ade, is naturally ignored, and it is no wonder that Qiu Fenghui is poor.
Lin Ping took out the phone and dialed Xu Jie's number: "Old Xu, dial two million from my card and hand it to Qiu Fenghui, vice president of the Xihai Institute of Geology." Yes, don't worry about it, you personally send the money over, and people's lives are at stake, so be fast. β
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, Lin Ping looked at Qiu Fenghui: "Two million, is it enough?" β
Qiu Fenghui was stupid, he looked at Lin Pingyuan in a daze, the cup in his hand was still hanging in the air, and after a minute, he suddenly jumped in front of Lin Ping with a crazy laugh like a child, holding Lin Ping's hands and choking in a choked tone, and was about to cry out excitedly: "Enough is enough, on behalf of the Xihai Research Institute, thank you for your support to scientific research, I will do a good job, please rest assured." β
Seeing that Qiu Fenghui was speechless, Lin Ping was speechless for a while, this person is really a scientific research madman, but it's okay like this, leave the matter to him, and he can rest assured.
"Dean Qiu, if you don't have enough money, you can call me, and I'll leave you the number later. However, the matter of Yin Stone must be fast, and it is necessary to test as soon as possible whether Yin Stone and Yang Iron are directly related, and whether Yang Iron can really restrain and balance Yin Stone. Also, I want to be able to test how much Yin Stone or Yang Iron is, to what extent it affects the human body, and how much it needs to be balanced. Lin Ping told again.
Obviously, if you just study the relationship between the two, it is definitely not enough, if you want to cure Zhang Yunxi and Qi Zhuangzhuang, you also need to find Yang Iron to balance, and the amount must be just right, don't just eliminate the magnetic field influence of Yin Stone, and make people excited to be affected by Yang Iron. Although there is a yin stone in his hand, after all, it is also two lives, so he can't joke.
"Rest assured, after I have researched the Yin Stone, I will personally go to the Institute of Biology to find a friend to help conduct the test and test, and I promise to give you a satisfactory answer, please rest assured."
Being called by a middle-aged uncle in his forties one by one, Lin Ping was uncomfortable.
Seeing that this person is indeed a scientific research idiot, the next thing is to wait for the results.
Lin Ping left a specimen of Yin Stone, said goodbye to Qiu Fenghui with Yu Cheng, and repeatedly instructed Qiu Fenghui to study it as soon as possible before leaving.
As for Yang Tie, it is estimated that Yu Cheng will not be able to help much, and he still needs to find Xu Jie for this matter. No matter what the results of the research are, since the "Book of the Hundred Schools of Thought" says that Yang Tie can restrain Yin Shi, even if there is no result, you must give it a try.
Regarding Zhang Xiaoxi's matter, Lin Ping has always felt guilty.
Originally, it was Zhang Qingshan who came to ask him to help treat Zhang Xiaoxi, but in the end, he caused others to vomit blood and seriously injure him.
In the afternoon, Xu Jie sent two million to Qiu Fenghui, and when he came back, he complained in the courtyard that Lin Ping was too generous, but he was so stingy on weekdays.
