Abyss of ignorance

Chapter 60 Baizu Tumi
Ye Mimi faced Lin Xiaodong facing the morning sun, her light-colored eyes became more like a bay of spring water in the morning, she smiled slightly, her slender eyelashes swayed, and all the details appeared more moving under the sunlight.

"It's an honor to be of service." There was a hint of teasing in her voice, but it wasn't annoying.

Lin Xiaodong carefully took out the sample box and handed Ye Mimi a glove at the same time: "I remember you said that you are a researcher of traditional Chinese medicine. This is the evidence I collected recently related to Chen Shi's case. Chen Shi also A pharmacist, I guess this thing may also have something to do with Chinese medicinal materials, can you help me identify what it is?"

The box is made of transparent acrylic. When Ye Mimi saw this thing, the calm "clear water" in her eyes seemed to have ripples.

Putting on her gloves, she put the seeds in the sun, looked at them for a while and asked, "Where did you find this thing?"

Lin Xiaodong didn't want to repeat that cruel story anymore, so he could only answer briefly: "It was found at Qian Yingjie's house. It should be one of the tokens about Chen Shi's murder that the killer brought back from the snowy area."

Ye Mimi listened, and did not let go of the hand holding the seed. She kept looking at it, not knowing what she was looking at. In short, like Chen Yu, this seed seemed to have a magical power that would suck people's thoughts into it. As if lost in some kind of contemplation, she stood in the sun and looked at the seed. Lin Xiaodong couldn't understand the look in her eyes. In the eyes of a 22-year-old girl, she could see the vicissitudes of life, as if this seed brought her to a long time ago. The time and space, I can't get out of it for a while.

"Are you... all right?" Lin Xiaodong asked cautiously.

Ye Mimi, who heard his voice, said to Lin Xiaodong as if waking up from a dream:
"I have a suggestion, how about you plant it, and when it grows, you will know the answer."

"Are you kidding me, Dr. Ye?!" Lin Xiaodong called her Dr. Ye for the first time, instead of Ye Mimi.

"You need an answer right away?" Ye Mimi confirmed to him.

"Yes." Lin Xiaodong immediately gave an affirmative answer, but after a second, he regretted his answer.

Because upon hearing his answer, Ye Mimi threw the seeds into her mouth without saying a word.

This was too fast, Lin Xiaodong couldn't react in time, he could only exclaim: "Hey! What are you doing?"

But Ye Mimi completely ignored his astonishment, and started chewing, even savoring carefully.

Lin Xiaodong watched helplessly as Ye Mimi chewed the key evidence that he finally obtained, and finally swallowed it into his stomach.

He didn't dare to tell her that this thing was taken out of Chen Shi's stomach, he even suspected that even if Ye Mimi knew about it, he would still do it like this.

Beneath her delicate appearance is an untamed savage!
"Are you crazy?! Don't tell me this is evidence, what if it is poisonous!" Lin Xiaodong felt that his sanity had gone to the sky, and he yelled at Ye Mimi, ignoring the surprised eyes of the old people around him. shouted.

Ye Mimi raised his eyebrows: "I can come back alive from the wild, which means that I will not eat poisonous things. You said that you want to know the answer immediately. This is the only way. Haven't you heard of Shennong tasting all kinds of herbs?"

"Okay, okay, you are amazing, then tell me, what is this thing, huh?" Lin Xiaodong walked back and forth on the grass with his hands on his waist, not knowing how to calm down his anger.

"Rosaceae."

"Heh, that's all, our technology department knows it too, so you don't need to talk about it."

"But it is very rare. It should not have its name in the general plant catalogue. In theory, it is extinct."

"Stop being a secret! Do you even know?"

"Coincidentally, I know." Ye Mimi's rosy lips curled up slightly, "If you investigate me deeply enough, you should be able to find the answer yourself."

"What do you mean?"

"Baizu Tumi is the research direction of my doctoral dissertation. It is a rare Rosaceae plant. It first appeared in the pharmacopoeia written by Anonymous in the Tang Dynasty, and it was said to have the effect of bringing the dead back to life. , was once regarded as an ancient clerical error.

Fortunately, it can still be found in high-altitude places in the snowy area. In our local area, this thing is called 蘼蘼子.

However, we all use its fruit to invigorate the blood and detoxify.

When I was young, I didn't think this thing was as magical as the ancient books said.

Until I started to study pharmacy at Linzhou University, to be precise, my major is Chinese medicinal chemistry. I analyzed and extracted the components of Baizu Tumi, and found that it can play a very important role in the preparation of cancer drugs.

I was introduced by Jiangnan Medicine mainly because of the research results of this paper. "

"Uh, although I don't understand it very clearly, my understanding is that it is a rare traditional Chinese medicine that can treat cancer?"

Ye Mimi looked at him with piercing eyes: "It's not that it can cure cancer, its unique ingredients, combined with other drugs, may be able to overcome the current problem of poor prognosis in the treatment of advanced liver cancer.

If you use the vernacular, it is hopeful that it can save patients with advanced liver cancer. "

"So powerful?!" Lin Xiaodong didn't know anything about medicine, but he could understand what Ye Mimi said, "It can treat terminal illnesses...but..." He remembered Li Xiudi's words and said puzzledly, "So Get up, Chen Shi discovered this Baizu Tumi ten years ago, why..."

"Huh?" Ye Mimi cast a questioning look.

"Before he died, he swallowed..." Lin Xiaodong couldn't help looking at Ye Mimi when he said this, "swallowed the seeds that he brought with him, apparently because he didn't want others to know about his discovery.

My master said that Chen Shi is a scientist who cares about the well-being of mankind, logically he would not have selfish intentions to hide his discoveries.

Now it is equivalent to a full ten-year delay in the discovery of Baizu Tumi. "

Ye Mimi listened silently to Lin Xiaodong's words, and then said, "I can understand."

"Ok?"

"All traditional Chinese medicines, under certain circumstances, will become poisons. Only after a large number of experiments and careful research can the medicine be used to achieve the effect of harmless to the human body.

I have read Chen Shi's research systematically. This is a great unfinished research. He is designing a complete cancer treatment system based on traditional Chinese medicine. The logic for the development and preparation of existing mainstream cancer drugs is Subversive.

Do you know what that means? "Ye Mimi looked at Lin Xiaodong, like a teacher asking a question to a beginner.
