Yesterday afternoon, after Anderson received the notice from his teacher, he immediately canceled a travel plan that he had prepared long ago.
He quickly traveled all the way from the capital of the Bana Federation to the city of Macas in the state of Amazon, and then took an armed helicopter from the city of Macas to enter the remote town of Bwado in the state of Amazon.
Along the way, there was both eagerness and solemnity.
But his teacher kept it a secret from him all the time, never mentioning the real purpose of the trip.
Bulk purchase of medicinal materials? And check the pharmacology of some medicinal materials?
This requires his teacher, a highly respected professor, and him, a rising star in the medical school, to go in person?
Don't even think about it?
So, at this moment, after Anderson asked his teacher again, he wanted to get a real answer.
Seeing the eagerness on Anderson's face, a smile appeared on Mallory's vicissitudes of life.
"Anderson, do you remember the file records for Patient 1092?"
Mallory did not answer Anderson's question directly, but asked this question.
"Number 1092?"
The voice in the headset startled Anderson, and he quickly remembered the patient incident that he was in charge of at the time.
"Teacher, are you talking about Pirko, the governor of Sahara Leon State?"
Mallory smiled and nodded.
"At the advanced stage of colon cancer, you have had two tumor resections in your hands, and you said last year that he has less than half a year to live at most.
"
"The result? He recovered for no reason during another physical examination just three months later. You must still remember this incident, right?"
Anderson was speechless.
Indeed, Anderson at the time also conducted a medical observation on Pirko for a long time, drawing blood and performing laboratory tests.
The result was nothing, and in the end he had to attribute it to the strength of Pilko's own immune system and his own luck.
In Anderson's career, although he did not experience any cases of cancer recovery, he heard many rumors of cancer recovery.
And these recovery cases are often early cancer patients, and they are attributed to the miracle and luck of very few people.
"Teacher, if you mention this now, it won't be that the purpose of our trip has something to do with it?"
Anderson thought very carefully, and he quickly had this association, and he asked in a slightly hesitant tone.
Mallory shook his head and smiled, then looked at the tropical rainforest outside the helicopter.
"Some things cannot be touched until a certain level, Anderson, this world is wider and deeper than you can imagine."
"Irreproducible miracles can't just be bought with money, so publicity and popularization will never be possible."
Looking at his teacher, Anderson was silent for a while.
"Is that so?"
"It seems that I will inevitably sign a more stringent non-disclosure agreement when I go back this time, right? Teacher."
Mallory couldn't deny it.
"To gain something is to lose something."
"Anderson, I'm getting old."
Hearing Mallory's words, Anderson's face was suddenly moved, and then he quickly made his own decision.
"Teacher, I will not let you down."
"I hope so!"
For Anderson, Mallory has always been very satisfied, otherwise he would not have taken him on this trip.
The small town of Bois, although nominally controlled by the government of the Banna Federation.
But in fact, the entire town here is controlled by a local traditional tribe.
You can call them gangsters, or you can think of them as a little warlord.
But everything doesn't matter, because this place is too poor, and the Bana Federation itself is relatively chaotic. Under the lazy government, there are naturally a large number of big and small gangs in the Bana Federation.
It is precisely because of the control of these gangsters that these poor slums have a certain order.
All in all, in the land of the Bana Federation, order mixed with chaos is the norm.
Mallory's trip, of course, has already had contact with the actual ruler of the town.
It is correct to say that Mallory's arrival was actively invited by the ruler of the town.
And it wasn't just Mallory's National Academy of Medicine who accepted the invitation.
This is an auction, but also an opportunity to raise the price of the town's 'Holy Medicine'.
Looking into the depths of the primeval forest, Mallory gradually stopped talking to Anderson.
Looking at the emerald green in front of me, compared with the dry steel and concrete in the city and the fatigue in the laboratory, the green forest scene is always easy to get a moment of peace and harmony.
The aviation road leading to the depths of the rainforest is like a short holy road to redeem the thirsty soul.
For the old man Mallory, looking at the misty rainforest at this moment, he has a feeling of shuttling between dream and reality.
Of course, it would be even better without the huge noise caused by the helicopter's wings.
In the sky, the sun is struggling to climb to the center.
The rising sun and the dewdrops on the leaves of the trees in the rainforest are opposite, and the reflected light produced by it embellishes the extraordinary overlooking scenery of the rainforest.
Looking at the rainforest and the reflected light of the rising sun, everyone on the helicopter fell into a state of enjoyment for a moment.
However, when the helicopter gradually approached the destination, the driver's exclamation on the public channel suddenly alarmed everyone.
"God, when did that tree grow so big and tall? How many days has it been? It's unbelievable."
The driver had obviously been here before, which is why he exclaimed at this moment.
"Um?"
Mallory and Anderson adjusted their positions one after another, and looked in front of the driver.
All of a sudden, a giant tree completely caught everyone's eyes.
Under the rising sun, the giant tree is appearing and disappearing under the mist.
Its canopy can give people a sense of grandeur just from a distance.
The thick leaves are extremely dense, like a giant umbrella, directly covering a large area.
Above the canopy, there are still many birds circling and playing at this moment.
The foliage of the canopy is laden with misty dew that slides off at the play of birds and is caught by the rising sun.
The dew fell like drops of sparkling crystal as they fell to the ground.
Seeing the flashes of light in the distance and the giant oak tree in the mist, everyone in the helicopter was startled.
There are not many 100-meter giant trees, and there are even a few in the whole world (except almond eucalyptus).
Of course, everyone wouldn't be too surprised if there was only a 100-meter giant tree in front of them.
but.
The 100-meter giant tree in front of them has another layer of background.
That is, this tree was only more than forty meters high not long ago, and it was extremely endangered and dying.
Although not everyone knows this, but in this helicopter, the two pilots and Mallory know it well.
Mallory's eyes widened, and at the same time, his heart fluctuated violently.
Unconsciously, Mallory began to cross himself.
Thinking of the conversation with someone before, Mallory said in amazement:
"This is indeed a bit surprising!"
Sighing, Mallory looked at the huge oak tree in the distance and his eyes became fiery.
