"The importance of the human body? Does that matter?"
Still unable to convince the lich, Lin could only change his direction and continue: "Actually, if you think about it this way, disease and medicine are like two armies confronting each other. If you just compare your personal strength, weapons and equipment, you can decide who will win or lose. , there is no need for so much trouble. But the actual war is also related to the terrain of the battlefield, the surrounding environment, the climate during the battle and other factors. It is not that the side with the stronger army and more soldiers will win. This metaphor , you who have fought in a war should be able to understand. The condition of the human body is the key third party besides disease and medicine."
Fen remained calm and just said: "Continue."
Seeing that the Lich's interest seemed to be aroused, Lin certainly took advantage of the victory and pursued it, saying: "I have roughly scanned the information you have researched so far, and found that your research has been missing a part, that is, how drugs affect diseases. Functional.——"
Fen's eyebrows were raised. He didn't look at someone at first, but glanced over from the corner of his eyes.
"——Most people think that drugs treat diseases. At the level of your research, you can understand that it is a certain substance in the drugs that kills bacteria or viruses in the human body. So what you have been doing The thing is to find out what the substance is and whether there are cheaper alternatives. This is correct, but it is not comprehensive. If you have directly paid attention to someone's treatment situation, you should be able to find that some diseases have been left in the past. The herbal formulas that come down are healing, not because those herbs kill anything, but because these medicines stimulate the body's immune system, allowing the body to produce antibodies that can fight disease bacteria and viruses, thereby curing the disease. I have not seen any of you. Research record in this area.”
These words made Fen notice something that he had not noticed before. And those things are actually not unfamiliar to me, I just didn’t expect them. "You mean the lymphatic system?"
"Yes, yes. It can be said that you have thoroughly studied the entire human body. If you are involved in human experiments, you should have enough sensitivity to find out where to start. But there is another layer, relying on that group of people The results reported by the old man were omitted due to their partial knowledge. This is not anyone’s fault, it’s just that they didn’t know enough.”
"So, do you want me to use her as experimental material?" Fen asked directly.
This question made the little brother and sister, along with Ezio, take a few steps back and stay away from the two magicians in front of them. Living in the holy city of Estari, even if they didn't understand anything, they had heard about which magician performed experiments and killed whom. Now, the plan of these two people is to send Lucy to death. Not to mention Willy, who was his brother, even Ezio couldn't accept it.
He waved his hand to reassure the children. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Lin still said to the Lich: "It's an experiment, but it's not what you think. What I object to is destructive experiments, which are the kind of practices that don't care about the life or death of the subjects, as long as the results are obtained. In the guarantee Under the premise that the subject's life is safe and the subject will not suffer too much pain, direct observation of the subject's condition is the most efficient way. However, ensuring the safety premise will make the entire experimental process more troublesome. But considering Observing experiments on the same individuals can effectively eliminate uncontrollable variables due to differences between individuals, so the trouble should not be unacceptable. However, the specific operation depends on the situation of your experiment. I'm just a bad idea guy. And..."
Someone was silent for a moment and didn't speak. Fin said impatiently again: "Go on. Don't say half-said things. It's better not to say it. Or I have to engrave this lesson on your skull so that you will remember it."
Lin stretched out his hand to beckon the worried girl. Compared to the two children standing in front of her, Lucy seemed to be more courageous, or in other words, she had nothing to lose, so she knew better about grabbing possible life-saving straws.
Looking at the child coming in front of her, Lin reached out and twisted her hair. The cleaning of the children is the most important thing for those apprentices, so everyone is taken care of cleanly. The cleaning products they use are all those they know how to use themselves. It is not because they are a group of outside children, so Halumi and the others just flush the water casually.
However, Lucy's hair did not return to its basic luster after washing like other children's. The brown-red hair was gray and fragile. You can easily cut off hair strands with just a click of your fingernail. Lin even saw a few bald parts on the top of the girl's head.
After thinking for a long time, he said: "Although I support your experiment, I hope you can easily solve her disease. But I have a feeling that maybe you will find another form of the disease."
"What form?"
Not only Fen asked, but also several people present were staring at someone with curious eyes. Lin then said: "It is a disease that is not caused by bacteria or viruses. You should be familiar with the effects of mineral poisons on the human body. Most mineral poisons can cause organ failure, causing the body's important organs to lose their original functions. , thus ushering in death. Speaking of which, the human body is really too fragile. There are many reasons for weakness, because diseases caused by bacteria or viruses are just one of them."
"In other words, what you said before was all nonsense?" the Lich said angrily.
Lin quickly explained: "It's not useless, it just may not be useful to this child. But I think those suggestions should still be helpful to your research. In short, no one will do it without a serious examination." I know what the result will be. I just said, I am just a bad idea."
"That's right, smart words are used, but stupid ones are used hard. Isn't that right?" Fen curled his lips and complained.
"Hey, don't look at it so pessimistically. The spirit of science is to make bold assumptions. In addition to careful verification, you also need to conduct multiple observations. No one can guarantee that they will be able to cover everything without any omissions. When there are enough Until there is evidence, nothing is 100 percent certain.”
Fen neither expressed agreement nor continued the question. She put her long legs back on the ground, stood up, and walked to Lucy. The girl who was already too sick to stand still did not flinch at all when facing the approaching lich, but raised her head and looked directly into his eyes.
In the shining eyes, Fen felt a strong will to survive. She doesn't want to give up yet, nor does she want to be a burden to others. So what if he was captured by the magician in front of him and used as an experimental subject? Could it be that if he escaped, he could escape from the god of death a second time. So no matter how slim the hope was, even if there was only a glimmer of chance, Lucy wanted to seize it.
Maybe those eyes affected Fen's judgment. She walked past the girl and shouted outside: "Nizi, are you there? Get your car ready. In addition to following you for the afternoon life lessons, Add two more kids.”
