The next day, on Thursday, September 6, the first day of the start of Binhe Science and Technology.

Early in the morning, Su Yuan took Su Mengyuan for breakfast and then took her back to school in a car. The campus was still empty in the morning, with willows brushing the embankment, and the air was extremely fresh. The car drove all the way to the dormitory area. On the way, except for the freshmen who had already trained military on the playground, there were few students walking around. After a few words of advice, Su Mengyuan got off the car and disappeared from the sight. Then Su Yuan drove away from the school.

She met with Xia Linfei, and then the two rushed to Haizhou City together.

The ancient man's laboratory is located in a rural area called Panao in Haizhou City. According to the news obtained from the Gu family, Su Yuan knew that Panao had been rumored to build a reservoir a few years ago, but for many years, he only heard the news that it had not taken action. However, just before the New Year, the Provincial Water Resources Department finally decided to pass the project to build a reservoir. Later, all the lower departments had a clockwork machine to measure the land and implement compensation in a very short time.

Now that residents are relocated, the reservoir project has begun. Fortunately, the construction of the reservoir is carried out in sections, which leaves Su Yuan and the others the opportunity to enter the reservoir construction site.

On the way, Su Yuan told Xia Linfei what happened last night, which clarified Xia Linfei's doubts about the lack of thirteen hours.

"It seems that the ability of [retrogression] should be closely related to transformation. Only after transformation will the ability of [retrogression] be revealed. At the same time, it seems that because of the transformation, the body's control of [retrogression] is not complete enough. This may be the reason for the abnormal burst of ability."

Su Yuan nodded gently. Speaking of which, the ability of [retrospective] has only been out of control once, and in the future, as the body develops, she has never had time dislocation again. As Xia Linfei said, perhaps her transformation has brought the ability of [retrospective] to some extent, and as this new body continues to mature, the control of this ability is also growing.

The car drove on the highway for nearly two hours, and after getting off the highway, it drove on the provincial road for about forty minutes. The surrounding mountains became undulating, and Su Yuan drove on the winding mountain road, where she had arrived.

"Pan'ao is surrounded by mountains and is a very beautiful place. In spring, the mountains are full of colorful flowers, which is very intoxicating. It feels a pity to flood it. However, there is no way. The new district needs water supply, and there is only one place like Pan'ao nearby is the most suitable."

Su Yuan was driving while giving an introduction. Facing the sunlight that shone directly from the high place, the surroundings had already become a construction site scene without realizing it. The dry air, the hot high temperature, and dust was flying everywhere! The originally flat mud road was also crushed to the potholes, and the cars kept bumping. On the already narrow and wasteful road, we had to avoid the earth-shaking cars loaded with stones that were coming towards us from time to time.

Su Yuan drove forward for a while and had no choice but to park the car to a nearby open space that had been crushed by artificially. There were still two or three miles away, and the two of them could only rely on walking.

It was noon, and the scorching sun was hanging high, like a cake baked in the oven. It gradually showed its vicious side. Su Yuan was wearing a white T-shirt, thin jeans, sunglasses, folding fans, and a bottle of herbal tea for cooling off the heat. In addition to not applying sunscreen, he was able to say that he could walk carefully between the explosion and rolling rocks. His little body kept crossing obstacles. Every step he took was to make a tingling sound.

Half an hour later, Su Yuan came to the village where the ancient man lived. As soon as he entered the village, they saw a construction vehicle dealing with the bricks and tiles on the ruins, and some towering and unfallen buildings also collapsed under the force arm of the construction vehicle.

Seeing this scene, Su Yuan felt a little cold, and quickly called an old man to ask, "Uncle, ask you something, where is the house of the old man Gu Shiguo?"

The old man came back to check if there were any omissions in his house. Since he was a local, he naturally knew the house where the famous Gu Shiguo originally lived. When he saw two beautiful daughters asking him for advice, he said enthusiastically: "You two... are the granddaughter-in-law of the second cousin's family. Since the second cousin went to the city, no one has visited the door for several years. This is not enough to build a reservoir. I was thinking that if no one came, I would help the second cousin move out the things inside. Since you are here, that's right!"

"Well, you misunderstood. We are not the granddaughter-in-law of the second cousin you mentioned..." Su Yuan said a little embarrassedly. She didn't expect that this question would even ask an ancient man's relative. However, thinking that most of the villages where the ancient man is located are Gu, and they are related to the old man's relatives, it was a little relieved. The title of "Second-in-law" is mostly a relative who has turned several corners.

"Oh, it's not my granddaughter-in-law, you two daughters, are you..." The old man's dark skin showed a simple smile, but he looked at Su Yuan and Xia Linfei unexpectedly.

"That's right. We came from Shanghai City and were students of East China University of Science and Technology. Today, we came here mainly because of our professors who asked us to do some things..." Xia Linfei had a sudden inspiration and immediately thought of an identity for herself.

"Oh, college students!" The old man looked at Su Yuan and his two good looks and accepted their identity settings happily. When he heard what they were from East China Science and Technology professors asked him to do something, he said with regret: "So you are here to find your second cousin this time, but it's a coincidence that the second cousin went to the city several years ago. I heard that he was not in good spirits and was completely confused..."

Su Yuan waved his hand quickly and said, "It's not like that. We don't look for the old man Gu Shiguo himself. We just need to get some things."

Xia Linfei stood up and said, "Uncle, that's it. Gu Shiguo used to be a professor at the East China Institute of Chemical Engineering in Shanghai and also presided over many scientific research projects. The East China Institute of Chemical Engineering is the predecessor of the current East China University of Science and Technology. Our professors used to cooperate with Gu Shiguo. Later, Gu Shiguo retired and resigned. Some scientific research research has not been interrupted, and some equipment is still stored at Gu Shiguo's house. It was not a big deal, but I heard that a reservoir was going to be built here. It's hard to let those equipment soak in water..."

"You are here to move those machines, right?" The old man suddenly realized, "It's great that you come here to move them. I think those machines are quite expensive. It's a pity that no one has taken care of for more than ten years. You know... We rural people don't understand the purpose of those machines. I heard a few middle school kids say that they would be infected by the Raush virus. We were so scared that we only dared to move some sofas and other furniture..."

"Several children of the second cousin's family have also become rich. Of course, they don't care about these things that have been used for decades. I'm also wondering whether to report the situation here to the Public Security Bureau. You think, since a reservoir is built here, will the second cousin's machine dirty the water? This is for people to drink. If there is really a virus, isn't it a sin?"

Su Yuan and Xia Linfei looked at each other and were both funny. The ancient man's laboratory has been empty for more than ten years. I'm afraid that any virus has already been wiped out. However, although the old man's understanding is ignorant, it gives them a very good reason.

Under the guidance of the old man, they quickly found the ancient man's home.

It was a yard that was surrounded by mountains, with a dry well and a milled mill. There were several fruit trees growing beside it. Unfortunately, I had been neglecting to cook for a long time, and the yard was overgrown with weeds. When I stepped on it, I was worried that a poisonous snake would pop up.

The house is an old house. Because it is not popular, you can smell a decadent atmosphere as soon as you enter it. The two of them took some effort and finally found a warehouse in the backyard and knocked on the rusty door lock with a big hammer he picked up. The two of them entered and found that this was the laboratory they were looking for.

Gu Shiguo is worthy of being the Taishan Beidou in the field of biology. He also has some special features at home when he is unemployed. He saw that the warehouse was divided into small rooms with aluminum panels. Su Yuanhuimu scanned it and knew the purpose of these rooms. There are molecular laboratories, electrophoresis laboratories, sterile laboratories, liquid phase laboratories, cell culture rooms, low-green rooms, mass spectrometry rooms, etc.

"Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs!" Su Yuan sighed sincerely after entering.

When the two of them came to the cell culture room, they suddenly saw several animal cell culture boxes arranged in sequence. They chose them at will and opened them. They saw that there were many Petri dishes inside. To their surprise, more than half of these Petri dishes were damaged, and some were even hollowed out from the bottom, as if a piece was cut off.

Then I visited various laboratories and found that the entire laboratory was already in a scrap state without opening for more than ten years. The various instruments were not covered with dust, and it would probably be difficult to operate even if they were carefully scrubbed. Moreover, the various organic raw materials, salts, reagents, serums, etc. inside had expired, especially the full bucket of protein powder and yeast powder. As soon as the lid was opened, a rotten and pungent smell came out, which made Su Yuan's delicate little face wrinkle and sneeze several times.

The two of them wandered around and had to accept a cruel reality. "It seems that it is impossible to get the finished product or the cells used for the experiment in the laboratory." There is one in the low-growth room, but the things inside have already decayed; there is also a refrigerator at minus 80 degrees Celsius, but the bacterial species stored inside have also been necrotic.

In other words, the two people did not gain anything from the experimental props.

Slap, Su Yuan opened a drawer, took out a few small notebooks inside and looked at it, and after a while, he shook his head: "These drawers contain irrelevant documents. It seems that even if the ancient man is old, he still cares about the most cutting-edge technology in the world."

He learns until he is old, and the noble qualities of the older generation of scientists are reflected in him. Of course, these so-called cutting-edge technologies are no longer cutting-edge in the eyes of Su Yuan and Xia Linfei. Many of these have been written into teaching textbooks, and most of them can be mastered by biology students to a greater or lesser extent.

Just when the two were disappointed, they found a tin box under a table. Su Yuan crawled in and moved it out with great difficulty, sighed, and felt that it weighed fifty or sixty kilograms! The tin box was not locked. When he opened it, he couldn't help but climb up his face with surprise.

"Wow……"

Su Yuan exclaimed.

What caught my eye were sky blue experimental record books, one about one finger thick, A4 papers stacked together like small hills, with hundreds of them.

The most essential thing about an experiment is not the instruments, the raw materials and even the finished products of the experiment, but the data recorded in the experiment! It can be said that an experiment that loses the record itself has no value. With records, even if all the equipment participating in the experiment is damaged, it is still a successful experiment. Because the experiment itself lies in exploration and verification, it is a process, and what we need is the results of the experiment!

After just opening an experimental record book, Su Yuan was stunned by the detailed experimental steps, experimental ideas, and analysis of the reasons for the failure of the experiment.
Chapter completed!
