Chapter 1118: Human Relations and Worldly Wisdom, First Defense
Since Han Li was inadvertently nourished by the spleen soil, perhaps because the spleen soil has different functions from other organs, his appetite seems to have increased a bit.
When you go to a restaurant to eat, eating too much will attract others' attention. If you eat too little, you won't be full. It would be too troublesome to continue eating at another restaurant.
The combination of these circumstances made Han Li dislike eating out even more, but his life became more regular.
He cooks three meals a day, although the steamed buns Han Li makes are not very good, but the steamed buns and noodles. In addition, it is still possible to add various stews and stir-fries.
No matter what, Han Li was in a much better situation now than when he went out to restaurants to eat French fries, fried fish nuggets, steamed potatoes, and mashed potatoes, where he was not full or satisfied.
Han Li now opens the door in the morning to make money, goes to various hospitals in the afternoon to collect raw materials, and buys enough ingredients for a day or two when he comes back.
In the evening, I go home to read, write papers, drink tea, play the piano, take care of and tease a few fold-eared cats, and observe the movements of mice and rats.
Han immediately went out in the evening and called his family and mother according to the time difference between the two places. Moreover, after hanging up the phone, he went back to the clinic without going anywhere.
But this also allowed Han Li to see what it was like at night in the slums of Renton, where all kinds of bald heads and hairy people gathered together.
Some people were singing and dancing, while others were partying, graffitiing, and messing around. They were using various methods to vent their energy that had nowhere to go, and satirize the current situation in England.
And almost all of them have tattoos on their bodies, and many of them wear ear studs, lip studs, and tongue studs, and they show them to others from time to time.
Seeing this, I shook my head and wondered, could these people be the source of the heavy metal music, rebellious "punk" and experimental drama that were touted in later generations?
When Han Li returned to the clinic that day, he petted the cat vigorously, and then he forgot about the situation he had just arrived at.
However, folded-eared cats have really good personalities, even if Han Li didn't use elementary beast control skills to control them.
When Han Li was working or reading, these little guys stayed aside, making no noise and not moving much. Most of the time, they just lay on the window and looked outside.
Because cats like to be clean, raising them made Han Li very worry-free.
Han Li didn't need to worry about the two healthy folded-eared cats, but the four that suffered from rickets couldn't. They had difficulty moving and could only crawl a little in severe cases.
Han Li connected their cat nests and sand basins so that they could complete the activities between the two places with minimal effort, and finally placed them all on the windowsill so that they could look at the sky like their two able-bodied companions. .
Since these kittens came to Han Li's clinic, their life was originally a bit monotonous and simple. Now they are reading books, drinking tea, and petting cats when they are bored, making their lives more pleasant.
Occasionally there were days when there were no customers in the clinic, and Han Li could make them spend their time comfortably and contentedly.
A few days later, Han Li confirmed that the four folded-eared cats had no other diseases, and recorded all the current skeletal conditions of their bones through his mental power.
Han Li took out two prescriptions temporarily named "Strengthening Muscles and Bones Powder" that he had derived for his children. The finished products had already been made and had never been used, and they were fed to the four fold-eared cats respectively.
Han Li originally introduced a total of six prescriptions with different effects to the children.
Two of them are effective in strengthening muscles and bones, and they are currently collectively named "Strengthening Muscles and Bones Powder".
The two functions are to strengthen the internal organs, and they are currently collectively named "Guben Peiyuan Cream".
At that time, whichever one is more effective can be officially named, and those with poor effects or side effects will be put and sealed in the decomposition space.
As for the efficacy of the other two prescriptions, Han Li is still hesitant because the location where the efficacy is exerted is dangerous and unstable.
(Let’s put this aside for now.)
When Han Li deduced these prescriptions, he took into account various factors such as the young age of his children, his body, and his bones, and he thought that he would rather have no success than make any mistakes.
Han Li was very careful about the relationship between the medicinal materials, right down to the neutralization and fusion of the medicinal materials, making the effects of these medicines very stable and slow.
Therefore, whether it is "Strengthening Muscles and Bones Powder" or "Guben Peiyuan Ointment", they all have the effect of moisturizing things quietly, not in a hurry, and allowing the effects of the medicine to adapt to and change with the child little by little.
Therefore, it will take a long time to wait to see how effective these two "strengthening muscles and bones" will be on these four folded-eared cats that already suffer from rickets.
As for the mice and rats used in experiments, their lives are not bad at this stage.
They were divided into different glass boxes according to the time of birth, and were fed different kinds of normal, sweet, salty, or greasy food.
These foods allowed them to eat as much as they wanted. Only in this way could Han Li easily select suitable experimental subjects for him.
Although Joseph, the unemployed young man in this area, has to go out to find a job every day, do odd jobs to support his family, and climb stairs from time to time.
But Joseph would come here every three days, and he couldn't refuse the feeling of relief after acupuncture.
Han Li will still give him acupuncture to remove a little bit of moisture. As long as the other person feels comfortable, nothing more will do.
Although the money was collected, Joseph blocked many hooligans who wanted to extort money for Han Li.
Because they were in a slum, the sanitation department was only responsible for collecting the garbage piled on the streets every day, and did not care about the garbage and fallen leaves on the streets.
Therefore, Joseph often brought people to help Han Li clean up the garbage, dead branches and fallen leaves around him, so that he did not have to be distracted by these annoying trivial matters.
This regular life made Han Li gradually forget the style of English bars and nightclubs, and forget the refreshing process of spiritual power being blessed.
(The main reason was that the hurdle in his heart had not been overcome.)
But the only thing Han Li did not forget was that he had to go back to Niujing University to find his tutor and Professor Rand Swanson to submit his own thesis, and to respond to the tutor's defense. And so on.
It has been nearly a month since Han Li got the authority to postpone from his tutor. Making money and collecting raw materials are not as important as his graduation certificate.
So Han Li took time to go back to school recently to deal with the situation this month and try to get a more relaxed time from his tutor.
In order to have more free time, Han Li decided to give his mentor a gift.
Of course, money must not be wasted, so Han Li let the family of Saker Falcon and Peregrine Falcon go out. Their mission this time was to help him catch two snowy owls.
Because the snowy owls are large and fierce, Han Li doesn't have to worry if they are caught dead, because both Saker Falcon and Peregrine Falcon are the overlords of the sky, and killing a few snowy owls is like playing.
Han Li was worried that they would be injured when they were caught alive, so he specifically told them that the target to be captured this time should be the cubs, the smaller the cubs, the better, and the smaller the animal, the less mental energy it takes to control it with the primary beast control technique.
Why the snowy owl? Because the snowy owl is also called the white snow owl in England. Its body and appearance are better than those of the barn owl, the tabby owl, the gray owl, and other similar species. It is the best among the representatives of the goddess of wisdom in the owl family.
After the snowy owl was caught, Han Li used the elementary beast control technique to control it. When Professor Rand Swanson accepted it, he could always remind him that it was a gift from Han Li.
Even if the snowy owl could only give Han Li very short-term feedback, at least it could let Han Li know how his mentor felt today, so that he could adjust his language during the defense.
Because there were too many factories and people near Renton, snowy owls were not common in the area, so the Saker Falcon and the Peregrine Falcon could not come back for a while.
But Han Li was not in a hurry, because it would take some time before he returned to school.
This period of time was just right for him to check the paper he was going to submit this time, and by the way, he could turn the raw materials he had collected recently but had not had time to decompose into "semi-finished products".
Two days passed like this, and the Saker Falcon family brought back two small snowy owls, and the Peregrine Falcon family brought back two snowy owls of similar size, but one had died on the way.
Han Li tried it and found that the three snowy owls had already learned to fly. However, judging from their feathers and size, they had only learned to fly for a short time.
This situation was just right, saving Han Li the trouble of feeding them for a while and teaching them to fly.
Han Li selected a pair of snowy owls from the three to raise, and trained the remaining one to give to Professor Rand Swanson as a gift.
In this way, a large bird's nest appeared on the third-floor balcony of Han Li's clinic.
Next, Han Li called his tutor and got permission from Professor Rand Swanson. After agreeing on the time for the defense, Han Li had nothing to worry about.
A few days later, in the morning, Han Li changed into a set of ordinary clothes and carried a backpack, which contained the academic dress he needed to wear for the defense.
After comforting a few Scottish Fold cats and snowy owls and leaving them enough food and water, he whistled, and a very energetic and obedient snowy owl retracted its claws and gently landed on his shoulder.
Han Li gently stroked the snowy owl, walked out of the room with it, hung a sign saying "I'm out for business" at the door of the clinic, and left.
Because the snowy owl is a symbol of the goddess of wisdom and wealth in England, and because it is well-behaved, does not move around, and does not fly away, Han Li has become the focus of everyone on the way from London to Niujing.
Some of the community cows would come up to ask about the situation, and with Han Li's permission, they would tease the snowy owl.
At this time, Han Li felt a little regretful for taking the snowy owl out, but he secretly gave the snowy owl an order, that is, whoever touches it will peck it, but it is not allowed to really peck the other party.
After a few times, Han Li's remaining journey was quiet.
Niujing University is still the same, and the town is filled with a completely different atmosphere from Renton.
Clean, quiet, full of vitality, rich cultural atmosphere, etc., these are not available in the downtown.
Near the school, Han Li didn't want to enjoy the treatment on the bus, nor did he want to become a celebrity.
So, the first thing Han Li did after getting off the bus was to put the snowy owl in his backpack, leaving only its head exposed. If there weren't too many people around, Han Li would have taken it directly into the vast peach garden.
But this is not bad. At least when Han Li returns to the dormitory to change into academic dress, if there are roommates, if they ask to sit in on his defense, he doesn't have to think about how to take out the Snow Owl.
It turns out that Han Li thought too much. Most people are in class during this time, so there is no one in the dormitory.
Han Li changed into academic dress and still let the Snow Owl stay in the backpack.
When wearing academic dress, this backpack cannot be carried, otherwise if the university officials in charge of discipline see it, Han Li will be deducted the corresponding credits.
Han Li carried the backpack in one hand and held his thesis in the other hand and went to the tutor's office.
Han Li's current appearance still attracted a lot of attention, because those who wear academic dresses to defend their thesis with their tutors will not bring anything except materials and thesis, for fear that they will be deducted points by the tutor because of carrying and dressing.
However, except for the children of the rich and powerful, the students in the school are all very busy, and this kind of attention is basically swept away.
Only a few people would notice the head of the snowy owl outside the backpack when they passed by Han Li, but before they could take a closer look, Han Li had already walked away with his long legs.
Han Li ignored the gazes of others along the way. When he arrived at the door of his mentor's office, he deliberately let the snowy owl's head stick out a little more and made it look the easiest to be discovered.
After doing all this, Han Li nodded with satisfaction, and then knocked on the door of his mentor at Niu Jing University, Professor Rand Swanson's office.
"Please come in."
