"The importance of the human body? What does that have to do with anything? "
Unable to convince the Lich, Lin Li had no choice but to change his approach. "Actually, think about it this way. Sickness and medicine are like two armies facing off against each other. If the only thing that matters is personal strength, weapons, and equipment, is there a need to go through so much trouble? But in reality, wars are also related to the terrain of the battlefield, the surrounding environment, the weather, and other factors. It wasn't always a sure win for the side with the most troops. You should be able to understand this analogy since you've fought in a war. The human body's condition is the key third party in addition to the diseases and drugs. "
Fen remained calm and said, "Go on."
Seeing that he had piqued the Lich's interest, Lin took advantage of the opportunity and said, "I have roughly scanned through your research so far and realized that all this time, your research has been missing a part, and that is how the medicine works on diseases. — — "
Fen raised her eyebrows and glanced at Lin Sanjiu from the corner of her eyes.
"— — Most people think that drugs treat diseases. At your level of research, you can understand that there is a substance in the drug that kills the bacteria or virus in the human body. So what you've been doing is to find out what that substance is and whether there is a cheaper alternative. This is correct, but not comprehensive. If you pay attention to the treatment of a person, you should be able to find out that some diseases are cured by the herbal formulas left behind from the past. It's not because the herbs killed anything, but because the medicine stimulates the human body's immune system, allowing the human body to produce antibodies that can fight against the bacteria and virus of the disease. I haven't seen any research records in this area. "
These words made Fen notice something that she didn't notice before. She wasn't unfamiliar with those things, but she didn't think of them. "You mean the lymphatic system?"
"Yes, yes. You can say that you have studied the entire human body thoroughly. If you participate in human experiments, you should be sensitive enough to find out where to start. However, they were separated by a layer. Relying on the results reported by that group of old men, they overlooked some things under the circumstances of only having a smattering of knowledge. This is not anyone's fault, it's just that they didn't know enough. "
"So, you want me to use her as a test subject?" Fen asked directly.
This question made the siblings and Edgio take a few steps back, away from the two Magicians in front of them. Living in the Holy City of Estali, even if they didn't know anything, they had heard of Magicians who did experiments and killed people. Now, the two of them were planning to send Lucy to her death. Even Edgio couldn't accept it, let alone Willy, who was her brother.
He waved his hand to calm the children down. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Lin still said to the Lich, "It's an experiment, but not what you think. I'm against destructive experiments, that is, those that don't care if the subject's life or death, as long as they get results. Under the premise of ensuring the safety of the subject and not suffering too much pain, directly observing the condition of the subject was the most efficient method. However, the premise of safety is the premise of the whole process. So, it is acceptable............................................................. ........................ ............ Furthermore … "
Someone was silent for a moment and didn't speak for a long time. Fen said impatiently again, "Go on. Don't say half a word. You might as well not say it. Or do you want me to carve this lesson into your skull so that you'll remember it? "
Lin reached out and beckoned to the worried and scared girl. Compared to the two children in front of her, Lucy seemed to have more courage, or rather, she had less to lose, so she knew how to grasp the possible life-saving straw.
Looking at the child in front of him, Lin reached out and twirled her tidied hair. The cleanliness of the children was the most important thing for those few apprentices, so everyone was cleaned up until they were spick and span. The cleaning products they used were also what they knew how to use. Halloumi and the others didn't flush them just because they were a group of foreign children.
However, Lucy's hair didn't regain its basic luster after washing like the other children. Her reddish-brown hair was gray and fragile. With a clasp of her fingernails, she could easily cut off the hair. 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 also hope that you can solve her illness. But I have a feeling that maybe you will find another form of illness. "
"What form?"
Not only Fen asked, but even the few people present stared at someone with curious eyes. Lin said, "It's a disease not caused by bacteria or viruses. You should be familiar with the effect of mineral poison on the human body, right? Most mineral poisons cause organ failure, causing the important organs of the human body to lose their original function and usher 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?" Lich said angrily.
Lin quickly explained, "It's not that it's useless, it's just that it might be useless for this child. But I think those suggestions should be helpful for your research. In short, without a serious examination, no one will know what the result is. Like I said, I'm just the one who came up with bad ideas. "
"That's right. The smart ones speak, the foolish ones put in effort. Isn't that right? "Fen pouted and complained.
"Hey, don't look at it so pessimistically. The spirit of science is to make bold hypotheses, carefully verify, and observe from many sides. No one can guarantee that they will be able to take care of everything and not overlook anything. Before we have enough evidence, nothing can be 100% certain. "
Fen did not express her agreement, nor did she ask any more questions. She put the pair of long legs back on the ground, stood up, and walked in front of Lucy. The girl, who was so sick that she could not stand, did not cower in the face of Lich at all. Instead, she raised her head and looked straight into Lich's eyes.
Fen felt a strong will to live from Lucy's shining eyes. She did not want to give up, nor did she want to be a burden to others. So what if she was caught by the magician in front of her and used as a test subject? She could not escape from the hands of the Grim Reaper a second time. Therefore, no matter how slim the hope was, even if there was only a sliver of hope, Lucy wanted to grasp it.
Perhaps it was that pair of eyes that affected Fen's judgment, she walked past the girl and shouted, "Lassie, are you there? Get your car ready. In addition to you, there will be two more children in the afternoon class. "
