Qin's father was chopping meat in the kitchen. Qin Shiou came in, took the kitchen knife, held the chopping board in one hand and began to chop.

Winnie came in with a little melon and asked, "isn't there a meat grinder at home? Why chop? "

Qin Fu said with a smile, "don't use a meat grinder for the meat filling of dumplings. It tastes bad. The meat is sticky and the gravy is gone. Where is the smell?"

This time, mutton is used, and more lean meat is used to make wild vegetable dumplings. If the pork is too fat, the wild vegetable will be covered.

After chopping the meat, Qin Shiou stirred the previously chopped shepherd's purse and meat stuffing evenly, and then put in some five spice powder, minced onion, minced ginger, soy sauce, sweet sauce and chicken essence. After mixing, he added a little olive oil.

Weini coaxed her daughter and asked the details of making dumplings. Qin Shiou was too lazy to answer and said, "don't you like dumplings? Why do you ask? "

Winnie said helplessly, "you like it. I'll wrap it for you in the future, won't I?"

Qin Fu waved and said, "it's not necessary. Let Xiao Ou wrap it himself. He makes dumplings neatly."

Qin Shiou said with a smile, "if I want to eat dumplings, I don't have to make them myself. Let Shirley and Powell make them."

"Lazy you, work hard." Qin's mother came in with her sleeves and rolled her eyes.

The family was busy in the kitchen. Sanders came to Qin Shiou, knocked on the door and asked, "boss, do you have time? There is a topic I want to report to you. "

Qin Shiou poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "Hey, Professor, you're just in time. We'll have dumplings this noon. You and Tiya come together. The wild vegetable dumplings made by my mother taste great."

After staying in the fishing ground for more than half a year, Sanders is very familiar with the people in the fishing ground. He is a scholar with no shelf. He can find topics when chatting with people who haven't finished middle school like bull, so the people in the fishing ground like him very much.

Qin's father and mother especially respect Sanders. In their hearts, professors from universities that are more powerful than Tsinghua and Peking University are great talents. If they are placed in their hometown, it is almost like Wenqu stars coming down to earth.

Seeing that the family was busy, Sanders did not continue his topic, but asked cooperatively, "Oh, dumplings? I like this kind of food very much. I used to eat your sour soup dumplings in Chinatown, Toronto. Is it the same today? "

Qin Shiou washed his hands, came out and said with a smile, "no, no, Professor, today is not sour soup dumplings, but the dumpling filling is definitely something you haven't eaten before."

There were some useless shepherd's purse in the kitchen. The old professor pointed to them and asked, "is it that kind of wild vegetable?"? Oh, God, I really haven't eaten dumplings filled with wild vegetables. Can I eat these wild vegetables? "

Qin Shiou helped him popularize China's Wild Vegetable Culture: "the Chinese name of this wild vegetable is shepherd's purse, a healthy wild vegetable. It is rich in shepherd's purse acid, which is an effective hemostatic component and can shorten the bleeding and coagulation time."

"In addition, shepherd's purse contains acetylcholine, sitosterol and quaternary amine compounds, which can not only reduce the content of cholesterol and triglycerides in blood and liver, but also reduce blood pressure."

Hearing this, Sanders became interested: "does this wild vegetable contain hemostatic ingredients? Then I'll take some back and ask my colleagues to help me study it. If these hemostatic ingredients can be added to the biological glue to work, that's great. "

The two of them sat down in the living room. Winnie made Sanders a cup of black tea. The old professor liked to drink it when he was old. She said it was warm after drinking it.

After drinking black tea, Sanders turned the topic back: "boss, do you remember the crustacean of black lid giant you gave me? I want to ask, is there anything else? "

Qin Shiou shook his head and said, "it's hard to say. I happened to get it. I have to look for it to give you the answer. What's up? Have you studied this? "

Sanders came up to him and whispered, "yes, boss, I studied it and found that, as you said, it is really a very magical thing! Its composition is very complex. There is a strange mineral element composition in it. I did experiments and found that it has the ability to reduce cell metabolism! "

"And then? What's the value? " Qin Shiou asked in amazement.

Sanders' expression became dignified. He pondered for a moment and said slowly, "maybe my guess is incorrect, but if it is correct, it will be very terrible! I think you know that there are records of immortality in myths and legends in various countries, right? "

Needless to say, Qin Shiou understood Sanders' meaning. He stared and asked, "no, the substance contained in this shell is similar to the elixir of immortality?"

Sanders rubbed his hands and said, "I guess so, but how do we need more research and experiment. At least for now, it does have the ability to reduce the rate of biological metabolism and prolong biological life. "

"However, this may not be a good thing. The slow down of cell metabolism will trigger a chain reaction of life, and the consequences are uncertain. It will reduce the vitality of life, which is certain."

Qin Shiou asked, "what's its value?"

Sanders said: "the greatest value is to prolong life. You know, boss, whether animals or humans, is the most energetic when he is young. The older he is, the less energetic he is. This substance found in black lid giant insects will make people enter old age ahead of time and make people's vitality worse. "

"However, it will also make people's life longer. For normal people, it is of little value, but it is very useful for terminally ill patients and the elderly!"

At this point, Sanders shook his head and said, "I will continue to study. If my guess is confirmed, this discovery will be a little too terrible. Boss, I think we have entered God's restricted area. I don't know what consequences it will have. "

Qin Shiou asked decisively, "who knows your research results except me?"

Sanders smiled and said, "I know what you're worried about. Only the two of us know the secret. This topic was opened by chance and went straight to the theme. Therefore, after I know the secrets contained in the shell, I pay great attention to confidentiality."

Later, the old professor explained to him why he started the subject by accident.

After Qin Shiou gave him the shell, he didn't care for a long time. Some time ago, he has been studying the luminous sail jellyfish. This jellyfish lacks resistance to strong light and will soon die when exposed to strong light. He has been trying to solve this problem.
