Chapter 566 Scientific Research
In addition, the body of snakes also has the characteristic that the body will move after the head is cut off.
"Life essence?" Ma Xiaoling asked suspiciously. She also knew that this giant snake was a kind of Gu, but she didn't know what life essence was.
"Let's find a quiet place to talk, there are too many people here." Xiao Fei said.
After the big snake was beheaded, Ma Xiaoling's house collapsed, causing neighbors to come to watch.
"Grandma's big snake is actually dead! How could this be? Is it because of the backlash of the snake gu?" The nearby Miaojiang people, including the two girls from Bazhu, pointed at the dead snake.
They were not shocked by its size and rarity, but by its death. In this place, everyone raises Gu, and the big snake is just one of them.
"Such a big snake actually died, how terrible is this backlash!?" Grandma Snake's Big Snake Gu is considered the top existence among all Gu insects. What they raise are only some small things, which are far from big snakes.
For fear of being implicated by backlash, the onlookers hid far away. However, he couldn't restrain his curiosity, and he was still watching there.
Regarding the issue of backlash, the people of Miaojiang turned pale. Because since ancient times, no one has been able to completely solve the eternal problem of backlash. The reproduction of Gu worms is too strong to control.
The blood of the big snake gathered on the ground to form a river, very bloody. But they are not afraid of this, because once there are Gu worms to bite back, even bloodier and more terrifying scenes have appeared.
Amidst the crowd's discussion, Ma Xiaoling quietly left with Xiao Fei, Fatty and Big Materia. I am going to find a place to talk about Life Essence and Ma Xiaoling's future choices.
As for the collapsed house, it is a trivial matter. Ma Xiaoling is very rich, so she can just find some people to fix it in the future.

Among the cottages, there is a two-story building on stilts.
This building on stilts was rented by the Smith father and daughter for one million yuan a month. If you are a local, renting a house is less than 1,000 a month.
But they are outsiders, foreigners, and they still come to do research. Therefore, the rent is a thousand times more expensive than that of the locals, and other expenses are also terribly expensive. It is simply a waste of money.
Since they spent a lot of money, Nanman's mother also gave them some preferential treatment. For example, sending people to monitor them without knowing it, giving them independent space, and so on. As for providing Gu worms for their research, they even charged hundreds of millions of dollars.
However, the Smiths and their daughters are Americans, and this time they came to study with the support of the U.S. government and the Chinese government. Behind him, there are large American companies investing in it, and the cost of hundreds of millions is nothing to them.
In the room, there are only Smith and his daughter.
There is a large table in front of them, on which are various precision equipment, test tubes, solvents, and high-powered microscopes. Next to the precision research equipment, there are five transparent glasses.
Inside the glass, there were five ferocious and terrifying animals. Scorpion, green snake, toad, centipede, spider. Every kind of animal is crawling inside the glass. Judging by their color, they are all highly poisonous.
Just to buy these five small things, they spent 100 million.
At this moment, Anna was carefully pinching the black spider out with a pair of tweezers. Then with a scalpel, gently slice the spider's body, and finally put the slices into a transparent container filled with a special solution. After doing all this, put the spider in the glass again.
Every movement of her is very careful, and her expression is very focused. It fully reflects a scientist's cautious attitude towards academic research.
Science, there is no room for falsehood.
Professor Smith took the slicing vessel, gently placed it on the stage of the high-power microscope, and pressed it with a pressure piece. Then put the left eye on the eyepiece, and slowly turn the focusing helix with the right hand, and start to observe the slide specimen.
Anna, on the other hand, took out her notebook and pen and prepared to record.
"Damn Chinese people!" After observing for a while, Professor Smith said angrily, "There are no super active cells in this spider's body. We were deceived by them."
There is a big gap between ultra-active cells and ordinary cells. In the special solution in the petri dish, drastic changes will occur in a very short period of time. It can be clearly seen with a high-power microscope that this kind of cells will continue to divide at an extremely fast speed, regenerate and grow into new cells.
According to the information he knew before, super active cells can divide into one trillion fresh cells in one second. The size of a cell is ten to two microns, and one trillion cells can form a fist-sized meat mass.
In other words, if there are really super active cells in this spider. He could see under the microscope that the slice cut from the spider would grow into a very obvious mass of meat after a second.
"Father, I'll try other animals," Anna said. She also knew that the experiment had failed, because it grew into a mass of meat, and she could see it with her eyes.
After speaking, Anna put down her notebook and continued to slice other animals. After a lot of work, all the results disappointed them.
"The Huaxia people really deceived us, they gave us ordinary poisonous worms, not the Gu worms they bred." Finally, Anna put down her tools and said.
"Damn it. We actually spent 100 million yuan to buy some garbage from them!" Professor Smith said. Although they have the financial support of American companies behind them, it is difficult to explain to the company's board of directors that they have lost 100 million yuan for no reason.
"I think the Chinese people did it on purpose," Anna said. "Gu worms are the treasures of the Huaxia Miaojiang people. They will not easily show them to us for research. They just want to cheat us of money."
"It is estimated that even if we spend another billion, they will not give us real Gu insects to study." Professor Smith said.
What is handed down from the ancestors is the treasure handed down from generation to generation of a nation and the root of a nation. If it is thoroughly studied by others, then this nation will lose its characteristics, and there will be nothing to rely on.
They are also very clear about this. It was the first time they bought it, and it was also because the Huaxia government was watching behind them. If you don't spend money to buy it, then Huaxia will not agree.
"You can't get Gu worms in an upright way. It seems that we have to use other methods." Anna said, "In the tribe of Miaojiang, any woman can use Gu. We just need to bribe one of them with a lot of money."
"No!" However, Professor Smith said decisively.
