Chapter 36 There is no such thing as a free lunch

"Goo, goo......"

In the chemistry laboratory, Qu Ruo stood in front of the test bench and heard the sound of boiling water. Turning his head to look around, he didn't find anyone, and beads of sweat appeared in his palms.

The sky gradually darkened, and through the boat, all he could see was a mottled black shadow, his colleagues had left, and he might be the only one left in the hospital.

"Goodo......"

The voice grew louder and louder, and Qu Ruo seemed to hear his own breathing in the darkness.

"Hoo ......"

The two voices alternated with each other, and the sound of boiling water gradually became louder.

"Ah......h

A cool sensation surged down his right hand to his body. Jiquan, Qingling, Shaohai, Lingdao, Tongli, Yinxuan, Shenmen, Shaofu, Shaochong, several acupuncture points have been felt.

This is the Hand Shao Yin Heart Sutra!

The cool feeling flows into the main trunk of the body through the Shaoyin Heart Meridian, and some acupuncture points that have undergone abnormal vocalizations begin to heat up in the perineum/yin, tail lube, lifegate, spine, large vertebrae, jade pillow, and lifemen.

"Oops....."

Qu Ruo suddenly woke up, this is the feeling he had when he was cultivating.

"There is an abnormality in the Hand Shao Yin Heart Sutra, and this meridian helps absorb spiritual power!"

As soon as he looked down, he saw a 100-milliliter test tube poured next to the centrifuge, and the mouth of the test tube was placed on the right hand side at an angle.

The liquid in the test tube is a compound color of green with a little red in it, and the mouth of the test tube is blistering one after another.

"Goo, goo......"

Qu Ruoping cleared the noise, and indeed heard a subtle sound.

"There's a problem with the test tube!"

He felt more and more that it was the liquid in the test tube that was sending spiritual power to the meridians in his hands.

With his eyes, he found an even more wonderful phenomenon: the liquid in the test tube was decreasing, and in a short time it dropped from 67 milliliters to a little more than 65 milliliters, and the scale marks were very clear, as if someone had taken a dropper to remove the liquid.

Qu Ruo has a keen eye and sees everything in earnest.

"Can't stay in the lab for long!"

Thinking of his previous experience, he has a special physique and will absorb the spiritual power in the herbs, and there will be no left.

Obviously, the liquid in the test tube is Professor Xie's test material, and it may have been obtained by others with great effort, and it cannot be destroyed in his hands.

Qu Ruo carefully lifted the test tube up and inserted it into the test tube rack, and he found that there were more than a dozen such test tubes in a flat row on the test tube rack.

The color of the liquid in the test tube is not the same, it is not the same liquid.

When he put the test tube on the shelf, the other test tubes boiled at the same time, and several acupuncture points on his body began to be active again.

The idea of taking out the turtle shell and visualizing jumped into Qu Ruo's mind, but it was quickly extinguished. This is Professor Xie's laboratory, and these things can't be touched.

Experience has taught him that once the spiritual power contained in the herbs is absorbed, it will change its appearance, what if all the spiritual power in the liquid is absorbed into pure water?

"Give it up!"

An upright thought arose in his mind, although he was not a saint who did not eat the fireworks of the world, but he knew how to restrain his desires/thoughts.

With a sharp retraction of his right hand, Qu Ruo picked up the rag in his hand and cleaned the test bench indiscriminately, far away from the test tube rack, no longer absorbing the spiritual power inside.

"Get out of the lab as soon as possible!"

He picked up a broom and swept the lab casually, leaving as if he were running away.

"Bang ......"

Closing the door of the chemistry laboratory, Qu Ruo let out a long breath. Make up your mind, if it's okay or missing this laboratory, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to resist the desire in my heart and absorb all the spiritual power inside.

"There's one more!"

What happened just now is vivid, Qu Ruo cautiously came to the Chinese medicine laboratory, did not dare to make a loud noise when he entered the door, and gently opened the door to make sure that there was nothing unusual and walked into the laboratory.

"It's a lot calmer here than the last lab!"

There were no foreign objects on the test bench, Qu Ruo wanted to clean the ground and go out, took a broom, and found an abnormality when his eyes shifted to the ground.

The smooth ground was covered with ants, and swarms of ants slowly crawled in a line like pearls towards several special medicine cabinets.

One by one, the ants crawled desperately to the medicine cabinet, they were extremely strong, even if they rolled down from the medicine cabinet more than one meter high, they would not give up halfway, and they crawled from the ground to the top in a new queue.

Yellow cats, ants.

Critters are perceptual and will always find the most favorable environment.

Qu Ruo had a flash of inspiration, he thought of the medicine cabinet that Professor Xia had brought, maybe it contained some elixirs, Professor Xie only came to work in the Chinese medicine hospital to analyze the useful ingredients in these elixirs?

The more Qu Ruo thought about it, the more flexible his brain became, and when a series of things were put together, he understood that experts and professors were not doctors in hospitals at all, and people came here for a special purpose.

In recent years, although many extracts from Chinese herbal medicines such as ginsenosides and Yunzhi liver tai have been released, their specific ingredients and mechanism of action are still not clear, in other words, with modern science and technology, it is still impossible to figure out the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine, and we have to rely on the theory of the ancients.

Could it be that Professor Ye and the others want to work together to figure out the active ingredients and even related pharmacology of traditional Chinese medicine?

Qu Ruo shook his head, this is a project of one day, not to mention just a few professors, even the power of all Chinese medicine practitioners in Yuzhou and even all Chinese medicine in Huaxia may not be able to unravel the puzzle.

"Forget it, how the professors are their business, why should I bother?"

There is no free lunch in the world, Ye Lao and others have retired, and Qu Ruo has no right to ask the professors to do their best for the Chinese medicine hospital.

He picked up a broom and knocked out the ants that kept climbing up on the medicine cabinet, and opened a medicine cabinet to sweep the ants inside.

There is an old ginseng dozens of centimeters long lying inside, and with Qu Ruo's eyesight, I am afraid that it weighs a catty. As the saying goes: seven taels are ginseng, and eight taels are treasures. Such a large ginseng is definitely not ordinary.

He continued to observe the ginseng in the medicine cabinet.

The reed is round and long, the reed bowl has dozens of reed round and long, the skin is old and yellow, the lines are fine, the body shape is beautiful, the whip beard, the pearl knots are many, this ginseng must have more than 100 years, it is a rare treasure.

Qu Ruo was afraid of absorbing the aura in the ginseng, so he dusted the ants inside with a broom from a long distance.

Several other medicine cabinets were opened, but inside were formed He Shou Wu, a white Tai Sui.

"So the professors are studying these things!"

Qu Ruo suddenly understood that the old herbs were a gift from nature to human beings, and the medicinal materials contained a lot more beneficial ingredients.

It's just that good drugs are hard to find, and the professors must have worked hard to find them.

Qu Ruo slowly tidied up the medicine cabinet, tidied up the laboratory and quietly walked out.

"I have to think of a way, I can't come to the lab easily in the future!"

He was really afraid that if he was careless, he would destroy these medicinal materials and let the professors' hard work go to waste.

"Teacher, I want to take a few days off!"

When Qu Ruo saw Professor Yin again, he said that he had sent personnel to the laboratory, and made a request, and he was relieved of the operation of the Chinese medicine hospital with a teacher to take care of him.

"Ye Lao's laboratory has just been put on track, and the professors' energy is indeed not in the Chinese medicine hospital these days, don't worry about it!"

Professor Yin sighed and told the truth.

Professor Ye and the others were indeed researching several precious herbs, and he had to participate in them even when he was busy.

"Don't worry, I know the severity, and I won't hinder Ye Lao and others from engaging in scientific research!"

Qu Ruo supported the old professors in his heart, but he also had to hide it unspeakably, afraid that he would inadvertently destroy the experimental materials, if such a thing happened, he would have no shame to face Ye Lao and even a few teachers!

He promised to buy a computer for Yin Ling, and Jia Yao called him several times to go to the antique market but was refused, taking this opportunity to solve everything.
