Chapter 19: Fighting the Fire

Luo Wendi's father-in-law, Liang Zhen, is one of the current members of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.

Every month, Emperor Rowan would come to visit him, and he never brought anything sensitive, but always sent some flowers and plants.

The Danmu that Bai Ge sold to Emperor Luo Wen, he sent it here as soon as possible.

Liang Zhen is very fond of flowers, and when he first saw Danmu, he didn't recognize what it was.

It wasn't until Lovan Di introduced the original text of the Classic of Mountains and Seas that he suddenly realized.

"Are there really such beautiful and strange flowers in the world?"

Liang Zhen couldn't take his eyes off, and said angrily after checking it again and again.

"Who planted it? It's just a mess! The rhizome of this flower is thick and long, how can you use such a small potted plant?"

Liang Zhen ignored Emperor Luo Wen, and hurriedly took the flower pot to the courtyard to manipulate himself.

When Emperor Luo Wendi saw that Liang Zhen liked it so much, he didn't bother, and followed silently.

After a while, Liang Zhen took care of the Danmu again, and sat on the side to admire it with satisfaction.

"Xiao Luo, where did you get this flower?"

Finally asked, Luo Wendi hurriedly said: "I personally picked it from Shennongjia, I saw this flower so peculiar, I knew that my father would like it......"

"You picked it yourself? I said, no wonder it made such a mess. Liang Zhen pouted.

Luo Wendi sneered, of course he didn't understand flowers.

As he spoke, Liang Zhen took out a book from the room, turned a few pages, and his eyes lit up.

"The leaves are red stems, yellow and red, its taste is like syrup, it is not hungry to eat, and it can resist fire. ”

"It's really Danmu, just like in the record...... It's so beautiful. ”

Liang Zhenmei smiled and liked it very much.

But then he sighed and said, "It's a pity that it's too precious, and this flower shouldn't be raised by me." ”

When Rowan heard this, he was not surprised.

If this flower is just plain beautiful, it's okay to say.

If Liang Zhen likes it, he can raise it himself.

But it's Danmu.

This flower is not only beautiful, but also has historical significance, cultural significance, and even research value.

There are too many miscellaneous added value, and it is likely to be the only one in the world, which is even more priceless.

Such flowers, of course, should be given to professional people.

Luo Wendi understood this meaning and took the initiative to say, "Why don't we send it to the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"

Liang Zhen looked at it reluctantly and nodded.

He picked up the phone and called his secretary.

Soon after, Danmu was sent to the Wuhan Botanical Garden.

As for the origin of the flower, whoever asked, Emperor Rowan said that he picked it.

In his mind, this flower though bizarre, cherished.

But as long as he bites the flower and picks the flowers, there is only this one, and no one can tell his lies.

The reputation of the first person who discovered Danmu naturally fell on his head.

Lovanti was so happy that he was often invited to the various research groups of the Botanical Garden during the two days.

Boasting about how he found Danmu and how he protected it and brought it here, he decisively handed it over to the state.

Relevant leaders have also praised his contribution more than once.

This incident was soon reported by the media, and when a photo of Danmu was revealed, it attracted even more attention.

For a while, this flower became famous, and its gorgeous appearance was matched with the fame of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, making a photo that was forwarded tens of millions of times in a short period of time!

The capital was also alarmed and sent a team of experts.

Not only that, but also many scholars who study the Classic of Mountains and Seas and study ancient geographical maps also flock here.

Everyone wants to know the news of this flower, and there are countless speculations circulating all over the Internet.

In particular, in the records of the Classic of Mountains and Seas, Danmu has the ability to resist fire.

Is this true or not? Is Danmu really unique?

If so, is this a mythical plant? Is it another corroboration of the many unverifiable descriptions of the Classic of Mountains and Seas?

The researchers, who had countless questions about this flower, began to study Danki.

The results of the study are not known to the outside world.

But within the Chinese Academy of Sciences, it has already set off an uproar!

Emperor Luowen, who was originally going to return to Xiangfan City, was invited over again.

"Strange flowers, strange flowers, what exactly did you find in Shennongjia, where is it, take us there!" many doctoral researchers asked Luo Wendi excitedly.

Luo Wendi was a little confused and said, "What's the matter? I can be sure that there is only this one in the place where I found." ”

"It's not a question of not having one plant, we're going to study the environment in which it grows! Do you know what we've experimented with with vegetation cells?" said the researcher.

"What?"

"Heat resistance! The cell structure of that red fruit is extremely strange, and the specimen can withstand 1,500 degrees of heat in the laboratory! This is almost the melting point of iron!"

Hearing this, Luo Wendi was stunned.

The researcher also said: "The ancients did not deceive me! Even if the flame was used to roast the danmu, it would not be damaged in the slightest! No wonder the Book of Mountains and Seas records that it can be 'eaten to resist fire'!"

Luo Wendi asked: "It's just that the flowers are not afraid of fire, can they really breathe fire if they eat it?"

The researcher shook his head and said, "Who told you that you have to breathe fire?" However, the components of Danmu can be fused with human cells, and we guess that after absorbing Danmu fruit, a layer of highly effective thermal insulation material will appear on the surface of the human body, which can effectively 'extinguish fire'!"

"The ancients often exaggerated, saying that it was to resist fire, but in fact, it was just that this flower had the effect of repelling fire. It is possible that this flower is worshipped because of this, and it is believed that eating it can ward off fire, which is not necessarily true. ”

To put it bluntly, the ancients lied and bragged, and modern people would be extremely tolerant.

At least there is nothing out of nothing, Danmu is really not afraid of fire, so it is reasonable for the ancients to have the illusion of eating and resisting fire. Perhaps, the meaning of food to resist fire is that eating can ward off fire.

However, the ancients could be tolerated, but Emperor Rowan was in trouble.

He doesn't know!

If the flowers are just good-looking and have historical and cultural value, he can just say a place.

But now, the scientific value of Danmu is greater than other values, and the overall meaning is completely different!

If Emperor Lovan really made it up, the truth would leak out in the future, and his responsibility would be too great.

Everyone thinks that he picked this flower, and he can't shirk it now, saying: Actually, I didn't pick it, right?

He has been making up nonsense for so long, it is already difficult to ride a tiger, and even his father-in-law thinks that it is the Danmu he found, and asked him to cooperate with the Chinese Academy of Sciences to go on a field trip.

"When are you leaving?" said Luo Wendi.

"As soon as possible!"

Luo Wendi nodded, thinking of the actual discoverer of Danmu.

He had no other way, and now he had to find Bai Ge.

......

At night, Chen Song drove Bai Ge to the Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Wuhan.

Luo Wendi personally stood at the door and waited, and when he saw Bai Ge, he smiled.

This smile made Chen Song breathe a sigh of relief.

"Young Master Luo, I brought Bai Ge here. ”

"Okay, thanks to you, I didn't expect to come so soon, I have time to invite you to tea, I have something to do tonight, I'm sorry. Lovan said politely.

Chen Song was immediately satisfied, what he wanted was the relationship of Emperor Luowen, and he spent 100,000 yuan for this, and when he heard that Emperor Luowen was going to invite him to tea, he didn't feel a loss.

Emperor Luo Wendi gave two more polite blows and sent Chen Song away.

This is the research center, and people can't enter it.

Even Emperor Luo Wen was just alone, and he led the way, so he took Bai Ge into a certain lounge.

Before Luo Wendi could ask, Bai Ge took the initiative to say: "I have already brought the photo, I don't have a close-up photo, but it can tell you what the place is." ”

"Okay!" Luo Wendi didn't expect Bai Ge to be so knowledgeable, and immediately invited Bai Ge into the house.

The two sat opposite each other on the sofa, and Bai Ge handed over the photo.

Lovan looked at it, opened Google Maps and compared it in detail, and remembered the place.

"Do you know why I'm looking for you?" asked Lowendi.

Bai Ge said: "If you are familiar with my profession, you should know that I like to be fully prepared. Although we said that you would not look for me for flowers again, I was prepared that you would break your promise. ”

When it came to dishonesty, Emperor Lovin was a little embarrassed.

But he quibbled, "We don't have paper agreements, do we?"

After speaking, he changed the topic and said, "What is so strange about this place?"

Bai Ge shook his head and said, "There is nothing strange about it. ”

"Well, then why did you try so hard to get rid of the relationship in the first place?" asked Lo Wendi.

"This flower is exactly the same as the record of Danmu, and as you say, it is a priceless treasure. I just don't want to be famous, after all, the profession is not so glamorous. Bai Ge said.

"That's right......" Luo Wendi was a little disappointed.

He didn't doubt what Bai Ge said, because he couldn't even imagine that this flower would be artificially made.

"Alas, such a strange flower grows in such an ordinary place. ”

Luo Wendi looked distressed, as if he didn't expect the growth environment of flowers to be so mediocre.

Bai Ge asked, "Is there something wrong, why does it have to be strange?"

Luo Wendi said: "Do you know, this flower has been found to have extremely high heat resistance, can withstand high temperatures of 1,500 degrees Celsius, and the people who eat the fruit are likely to have this ability, but the exact effect still needs to be tested in vivo." ”

"What? fifteen hundred degrees, can you breathe fire if you eat it?" Bai Ge said with a 'look of surprise'.

This was obviously something he pretended, and in fact he had expected it.

When Danmu was first made, he only provided a rough setting, which was created by the bell.

In this kind of detail, the bell can do better than itself.

Among the various small settings, one of them is: fire fighting, the ignition point of Danmu is 1,550 degrees to 1,650 degrees, and the eater also has such resistance.

Only this one was realized, and the others probably did not materialize, after all, he only lost forty pounds at the beginning.

So Bai Ge wasn't really surprised in his heart.

However, when Emperor Luo Wendi saw him, he explained: "So it is a strange flower! Such a strange flower, the Chinese Academy of Sciences believes that there must be a unique growth environment." ”

Bai Ge smiled: "You don't actually need to ask me at all, just make up a place by yourself and say that there is nothing strange about it." ”

Luo Wendi was annoyed: "Do you think I don't know?"

"This flower is much more precious than I imagined! If I want to make it up, why should I ask you to come? Take them to the real growing environment, which is also to contribute to the country. ”

Bai Ge understood, after all, Danmu was unexpectedly precious, and Emperor Luo Wendi was unwilling to make up the source blindly, and wanted to tell the Chinese Academy of Sciences the true location, which was understandable.

Thinking about it carefully, Luo Wendi instinctively has a heart to contribute to the country.

Otherwise, he could have made up nonsense to conceal the facts.

"What are you going to do?" Bai Ge asked.

"What else? Just take them there, it's their business to study anyway, believe it or not, what can I do?"

Bai Ge smiled, this was exactly the result he was looking forward to the most.

"That's fine, I'll take my leave. ”

As he spoke, Bai Ge was about to leave.

Suddenly, a rapid bell rang, and the botanical garden research center immediately became noisy.

Luo Wendi ran out of the lounge in surprise, and Bai Ge followed.

Immediately afterwards, in the dimly lit garden, an officer on duty was heard shouting, "There are thieves!"

"Someone snatched Danki away!"
