Hongwu Survival Guide

Chapter 62 Microscopes

Hua Gao paused to watch Xue Shuhun leave without guarding the house, feeling even worse, stepped forward a few steps, rushed in front of a strange guard who probably didn't know his identity and wanted to stop him.

Zhao Xu and Qiao An also rushed in.

After entering the door, the first feeling...

so bright!

Compared to the outdoors where twilight has fallen, because too many candles are lit, the feeling inside the house is the same as daytime.

Before he had time to pay attention to these, Hua Gao found a certain little ancestor at a glance.

Zhu Yuan was standing next to a long log-colored table that he likes to place everywhere these days, looking down at a small instrument like a telescope, holding a charcoal pencil in his other hand, and was drawing something.

call--

After confirming that Zhu Yuan was fine, Hua Gao heaved a sigh of relief before finally looking at others.

There are six people in the room.

Beside the long table full of various utensils and drawings, there are four, Zhu Yuan, Dai Sanchun, Cui Shen, and a strange short and strong man about 30 years old.

In the corner behind Zhu Yuan, there are two young eunuchs wearing black gauze with curved angles and narrow leader shirts.

Ok……

Ok? !

Hua Gao, who was about to look away, turned around again, looked up and down carefully, and confirmed that they were the two little eunuchs.

eunuch……

Hua Gao didn't believe that Zhu Yuan dared to use eunuchs privately.

Well, there is only one possibility.

Is the lord no longer planning to hide a certain secret, and even sent eunuchs over?

A voice came from the ear, interrupting Hua Gao's thoughts.

Zhu Yuan raised his head from the microscope, glanced at the three people entering the door, turned to Hua Gao, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is back, is the journey going smoothly?"

Hua Gao quickly retracted his gaze, grinned and said: "Success, success, and caught some miscellaneous fish." Seeing that Zhu Yuan was still holding the charcoal pen in his hand, he waved his hand and said, "I will talk about this tomorrow, and I will continue to draw. I'll see for myself."

Zhu Yuan nodded to Zhao Xu and Qiao An again, and then turned to the two behind him: "Let the kitchen prepare, Master Hua will have dinner together later."

He Xuan agreed, and sent the little eunuch beside him to the kitchen to explain things in a low voice.

Zhu Yuan lowered his head again, looked at the microscope and continued to draw.

Hua Gao waved his hand to signal Zhao Xu and Qiao An to leave, and turned to the short and strong man in the room.

Seeing Hua Gao looking over, the man let go of a microscope in front of him for the time being, and wanted to salute, but was inconveniently separated by the long table, so he could only cup his fists, and said in a low voice, "I have heard from the guard, I have seen the governor."

Hua Gao nodded slightly, and also knew the nature of the Arch Guard Division, so he didn't say much.

After Dai Sanchun and Cui Shen greeted again, they finally signaled to the long table in front of them: "This... what kind of microscope is that?"

Huagao still knows what Cui Shen is in charge of, and what the Department of Medical Devices of Taiyuan Hospital has been doing.

Seeing Hua Gao's question, Dai Sanchun, who was always serious on weekdays, showed a bit of excitement on his expression, and said softly, "Yes, my lord... My lord, come and see."

Said to give up the position in front of him.

Hua Gao walked over, following Dai Sanchun's gesture, bent down and lowered his head to put his eyes in front of a microscope, and took a closer look.

In Yuanyuan's light blue field of vision, Hua Gao quickly saw some shoe-sole-like worms slowly wriggling, and he also noticed that the larger one seemed to be devouring something around him.

After a while, Hua Gao looked away and looked sideways at the crystal slice under the microscope.

Except for a trace of blue on it, to the naked eye, there is nothing.

Then he turned to the camera.

It turns out...the microscope...this...are those invisible to the naked eye...then what...

Looking away again, Hua Gao simply reached out to remove the crystal sheet under the lens, and looked closely, there was still only a touch of blue, and the naked eye could not see anything without a microscope.

Putting the crystal flake back under the lens, leaning over again, those little bugs appeared in his field of vision again.

Watching so intently, Hua Gao unconsciously opened his mouth slightly.

Finally, I also understand why those people along the way all looked like that.

Just like...

Suddenly one day, everyone saw ghosts that they had never met before, and they were all around, so close, floating around.

How can you not be surprised?

How can you not be emotional?

How can we not be shocked?

When Hua Gao took off the crystal slice again and put it in front of his eyes to try to distinguish it with the naked eye, Dai Sanchun took the initiative to speak, as if he was afraid of disturbing something, and said in a low voice: "My lord, Hanlin said it was a paramecium, only one hundred percent of an inch. The size of one. Hanlin told me before that 'one flower, one world', it is unbelievable to be reborn, and today I finally saw it with my own eyes."

As Dai Sanchun said, he thought again of what happened this morning.

Zhu Yuan said last night that the microscope lacks fill light, which affects the observation.Dai Sanchun and Cui Shen made a few small light-filling mirrors overnight, and tried again this morning, and went outdoors with sufficient light.

Because he had failed too many times before, Dai Sanchun didn't expect to succeed today.He did, however, succeed in seeing the so-called 'cells' in the membrane of a leaf.

And then, the whole day.

Dai Sanchun saw a brand new huge world.

Things spread quickly.

Not only the people around Zhu Yuan, but all the people in Dinghai County who were eligible to enter the residence of the Yinghai Envoy all came to see the news, and many of them were refreshed and left in a daze.

When everyone lamented the strangeness of the microscope, Dai Sanchun understood how important today's discovery will be to the development of medicine!

Just like what Zhu Yuan said, many diseases are caused by these microorganisms such as 'bacteria' and 'virus' which are invisible to the naked eye. Now, since they can be seen, even if only a few, it means that in the future, you can think about it. The method is to try to prescribe more precise medicine to the case.

It can be said that the successful production of a microscope is definitely a great achievement that has benefited hundreds of millions of people.

After another failed attempt, Huagao finally gave up on using the naked eye to distinguish, turned to Dai Sanchun, and asked, "Paramecium, why is this... blue?"

"Indigo was added," Dai Sanchun took the crystal slice from Huagao's hand, put it aside, and replaced it with another crystal slice, and said, "Under the microscope, many things are transparent and colorless, and they need to be dyed to distinguish them. "

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and adjusted it, and gave it to Hua Gao again: "My lord, this is a pine needle. Compared with paramecium, you can see the cells, which are only a little small. Hanlin said that a higher magnification lens needs to be made."

Hua Gao looked down again.

While discussing here, Zhu Yuan finished drawing a sketch structure diagram of chives cells according to the microscope image, put down the charcoal pencil, looked at the opposite Wen Zao and said: "Since you have learned how to use it, you can bring a microscope back to Jinling tomorrow, my ancestors." Definitely want to see it as soon as possible.”

Even though it had been a whole day, there was still disbelief on Wen Zao's expression. Hearing what Zhu Yuan said, Baihu of the arch guard immediately clasped his fists and said, "My lord, I want to leave immediately and rush to Jinling overnight."

Thinking about Zhao Xu and Zuo Qi, thinking about Mao Xiang who has been promoted from the third rank to command the same judge, Wen Zao understands that the current errand can easily make meritorious service.

Unexpectedly, a credit was delivered to the door just after arriving.

Compared with the ordinary letter transmission, it is clear that under the microscope... such a series of astonishing discoveries were sent to the Lord a moment earlier, and his credit is a bit more important.

Zhu Yuan heard that Zao said so, but he didn't veto it, and said with a smile: "You are not afraid of walking at night, so go. Hmm... I still have some letters as usual, wait a moment and let them sort them out."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and ordered He Xuan.

He Xuan agreed to leave in a hurry.

When He Xuan retrieved the work logs of the past few days from Xieyi and the others, a microscope was also packed here.

After Wen Zao was sent away, the sky had completely darkened, and everyone went to the restaurant next door for dinner.

Topics also continue to revolve around microscopes.

Zhu Yuan was also very excited about the success of the microscope, so that he didn't do anything else all day today, and has been helping Dai Sanchun to complete the debugging.

However, just get excited.

Zhu Yuan understands that the successful creation of a microscope is only a small step for new medicine.

There is still a long way to go.

At the same time, after careful consideration today, Zhu Yuan also realized that the microscope can definitely be applied not only in medicine, but also in many other fields, which can be used in the future.

Didn't continue after dinner.

After a busy day, I neglected to take a nap today, and Zhu Yuan didn't have the energy to do anything else.

After Huagao and his party left, Zhu Yuan returned to the inner house, and the girls from Xieyi immediately greeted him with curious expressions on their expressions.

The girls here obviously also know about the microscope, but today all kinds of people come and go outside, as female relatives, a group of women, big and small, are very responsible and do not run around.

"Bring one over tomorrow to show you the novelty."

Before the girls could speak, Zhu Yuan said with a smile.

The inner house is already equipped with hot water.

Zhu Yuan took a shower, came to the bedroom, went to bed, and continued today's work log as usual.

The main discussion is about the microscope.

After dictating the diary, he took today's manuscript from Luoshui, revised it, and was about to go to bed, when he noticed Qingniang's hesitant to speak, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"

Qingniang looked at the couple of Xieyi.

Zhu Yuan smiled and motioned to the other three women: "You guys go and rest first, I will have a private conversation with Qing Niang."

The three girls went out obediently.

Xieyi is no different from Luoshui, but curls her lips when Liu Bai lifts the curtain.

crappy.

Didn't he just want to find an excuse to occupy the small bedroom outside?
After the three girls left, Zhu Yuan looked at Qing Niang.

Qing Niang hesitated for a while, and then said: "Young official, I have two younger brothers... I heard that there will be an imperial examination this autumn?"

Zhu Yuanming understood: "Do you want them to give it a try?"

Qing Niang nodded.

Zhu Yuan suddenly changed his tone: "Dissatisfied with my arrangement?"

Qingniang quickly shook her head: "No, slave... I am very grateful for the little officials who can welcome Wen Heng and the others to Jiangnan, slave..."

Looking at the woman who was so nervous that she couldn't speak, Zhu Yuan continued: "You just said... who mentioned that there will be an imperial examination this autumn?"

Qing Niang was stunned for a moment, subconsciously shook her head, and lowered her eyes guiltyly.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Zhu Yuan said slowly: "It's fate to be able to come to me. If your two younger brothers have real talents and learn well, and do things well, they will have a lot of wealth in the future. But if you want to It is not impossible to take a shortcut from me, the question depends on whether they have the ability. Unfortunately, I haven't found a place where they can make me look different for the time being."

Qingniang lowered her head even lower, and her body began to tremble slightly.

Zhu Yuan paused briefly, and then said: "Xiyi and the others are all smart and know how to measure, so I don't need to say much on weekdays. As for you, stupid woman, you don't have any opinions, so I can only explain it to you, and obediently stay in the house from now on. Here, cook meals, sew clothes, if you have children in the future, you will take care of them, and other things, you are not allowed to talk too much, understand?"

When Qing Niang heard certain words, she suddenly raised her head, and nodded again and again like a chicken pecking at rice.

Zhu Yuan touched a pillow from the side and threw it over: "Kneel on your knees, and have a long memory."

Qing Niang knelt down obediently, but she didn't use the pillow as a cushion. She picked it up and patted the dust, carefully placed it on the round stool next to her, raised her head and glanced over, as if to confirm if she had heard wrong just now. The official had already lay down, and wanted to go forward and cover him with a quilt.

Thinking that he was being punished, he didn't dare to move.

Zhu Yuan pulled up the quilt by himself, glanced at the woman not far from under the bed, and suddenly smiled again: "I plan to eat a big white sheep on my birthday, what do you think?"

Qing Niang's eyes were confused: "How do you want to make it up, slave..."

"Stupid woman." Without waiting for her to continue, Zhu Yuan grabbed another pillow and threw it over: "I have washed myself for nothing these days, just wait."

Qing Niang just carefully picked up the pillow again to put it next to her, she suddenly understood, her body trembled again, but this time it was because of excitement, her face instantly turned red, she looked over, and softly called out: "Little officer people……"

Zhu Yuan ignored it, and just murmured with emotion: "Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs."

No matter what.

After all, this is not an era where one can fight alone.
