Chapter 23: Science and Witchcraft
At five thirty o'clock in the afternoon, Liang Mo returned to the hotel, however, there was no Lin Feng in the hotel, and of course Liang Mo would not feel strange, because he understood that either Lin Feng had not arrived yet, or Lin Feng had not come to him at all.
Liang Mo was not the only one who entered the room, he was followed closely by a young man who looked of the same age, this person was named Li Du, a native of Beijing.
At that time, there was a non-governmental organization called the "Asian Youth Medical Group" in the Asian medical community, which held a "Asian Young Doctors Exchange Meeting" every year, and the participants were some young doctors from all over the Asian region.
Because it is a non-governmental organization, the government does not interfere too much, and the participants do not represent a specific country, which is completely spontaneous in the industry. For example, Bangkok and Chiang Mai are both part of Thailand, but doctors from Bangkok can participate, and doctors from Chiang Mai can also participate; Another example is that Hong Kong and Beijing both belong to China, and doctors from Hong Kong can participate, and of course doctors from Beijing can also participate.
Since it is an organized participation in the event, so everything is organized and arranged, take accommodation as an example, the hotel, room, and number of people have been determined in advance, two people in one room, but if who can talk to whom, who and who look at each other, it can be flexibly exchanged. Just like Liang Mo and Li Du, they can talk very well, and they are both Chinese, and they feel cordial, so the two of them live in the same room.
Entering the room, Liang Mo took off his coat and said to himself: "Hey, I have a friend who happens to be in Bangkok these days, and I don't know if he will come to me?" ”
"Bangkok? That's not too far from here", Li Du looked at Liang Mo.
"Yes", Liang Mo smiled, and suddenly changed his words, and said: "Let's not talk about him, Mr. Li, what do you think about the topic of nanotechnology application in the future medical field discussed today?" ”
"I'm ......", Li Du was about to speak, when a knock suddenly sounded outside.
"Who?" Liang Mo looked towards the door.
"Liang Mo, it's me", someone outside the door replied.
Hearing this answer, Liang Mo laughed as he went to open the door: "You really came." ”
This person, of course, is Lin Feng.
After the greetings, Liang Mo introduced Lin Feng and Li Du to know each other, and since everyone is Chinese, they quickly became familiar with each other.
Liang Mo first told Lin Feng about their coming to Pattaya to hold an exchange meeting, and after listening, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh: "Sponsoring you to come to this kind of place for a meeting, those drug manufacturers are really cheap!" ”
Liang Mo smiled and said, "Not only drug manufacturers, but also many medical device manufacturers, they are all vying to sponsor the exchange meeting." ”
Lin Feng then sighed: "Ah, it seems that you all eat and live for nothing, is there still a vain tour!" ”
Liang Mo smiled bitterly, did not answer, but changed the conversation and asked, "Lin Feng, how are you?" Did Huang Yuming's affair have any results? ”
Lin Feng nodded: "Of course, but it's a long story, we ......."
Lin Feng didn't continue, because he was interrupted by Liang Mo, Liang Mo looked at Lin Feng, then at Li Du, and said, "Since it's a long story, let's not talk about it for now, it's time to eat, let's talk while eating." ”
Next to the lobby on the first floor of the Binhai Hotel, there is a buffet restaurant, where Liang Mo, Lin Feng and Li Du are sitting around a table.
"Okay, Lin Feng, you can say your 'long words'", Liang Mo glanced at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng slowly put down his chopsticks, cleared his throat, and said, "Okay." ”
So, Lin Feng talked about what he had been doing in Bangkok in the past few days from beginning to end, and the most colorful of them was, of course, about "lowering his head".
After listening to Lin Feng's story, Liang Mo pondered for a moment and sighed to himself: "Huang Yuming's strange illness is really due to the reason of 'lowering his head'?" ”
"Why, you still don't believe me?"
Liang Mo was still thoughtful, and said slowly: "I don't believe it!" ”
Lin Feng suddenly looked very helpless, and said disdainfully: "You are just a stubborn stone that does not open your mind, I won't tell you; Come, Mr. Li, let's say", Lin Feng turned his gaze to Li Du.
In fact, Li Du listened to the matter of "lowering his head", and he didn't believe it.
"What, Mr. Li, you don't believe it either?"
Li Du smiled and said, "Doctor Liang treated Huang Yuming for that strange disease, and even Dr. Liang, who has personal experience, doesn't believe it, and I don't believe it. ”
"And what do you believe?" Lin Feng blurted out.
"Science", Li Du said succinctly.
"Yes, of course it's science", Liang Mo also added.
Lin Feng then asked, "So, what should you do if you encounter something that can't be explained by science?" ”
"Can't explain?" Liang Mo seemed to be a little unimpressed.
"Yes, I can't explain it, just like Huang Yuming's strange disease, don't you have no way at all?"
Liang Mo paused and said, "This ......, it is that we have not yet found out the cause of the disease, but I believe that if we are given time, we will definitely have a way." ”
Lin Feng smiled: "You really comfort yourself. ”
Liang Mo also smiled and said, "This is not comfort. ”
"Okay, let's put aside the matter of Huang Yuming, but don't you think that there really is something in this world that is difficult for science to explain?"
In fact, Liang Mo doesn't understand these, such as the Egyptian pyramids and the Bermuda Triangle, which are all difficult to solve; However, Liang Mo still smiled slightly, and replied unhurriedly: "If it can't be explained, it can only mean that it can't be explained temporarily, and that it can't be explained temporarily doesn't mean that it can't be explained in the future, I believe that when science develops, all phenomena can be explained." ”
"Witchcraft, what about witchcraft? You wouldn't have heard of witchcraft, would you? Lin Feng asked again.
Liang Mo smiled and said: "If you encounter something you don't understand, it comes down to witchcraft, then it's simple, but science doesn't want to develop anymore, and human beings don't want to make progress." ”
Lin Feng saw that he couldn't convince Liang Mo at all, so he changed his words and asked again: "Liang Mo, what do you say is the opposite of 'science'?" ”
Liang Mo was puzzled: "'Science' still has antonyms? ”
"Why can't there be?"
"Aren't all adjectives with antonyms?" Obviously, regardless of the facts, Liang Mo does not think of "science" as an adjective.
"Who did you listen to?" Lin Feng asked rhetorically.
"This ......", of course Lin Feng hadn't heard anyone say it, it was just his own feeling, he was not a linguist after all, so he didn't know how to answer for a while.
