The night is getting darker, and Gu Xuetang is in a daze.
This is the school's laboratory.
On the table in front, there is a pot of boiling water that is somewhat gray in color and is gushing with rather fishy steam.
Inside are the raw materials Gu Xuetang bought from the barbecue stall next door.
But after cooking it for a long time, the experimental materials inside never changed.
Gu Xuetang calculated the average time it took his father to cook soup.
About 20~25 minutes.
And now, it has been cooking for nearly an hour.
Gu Xuetang said he couldn't understand.
Ever since he discovered that his father had gotten better recently, he accidentally asked one more question.
He fell into great confusion.
Although, he thought at first.
This may be the butcher shop owner trying to promote some form of bluffing that Gu Xuetang considers to be purely scrap.
Just boiling it in water, can it also be called a secret recipe?
Gu Xuetang felt that as a teacher, it was time to carry out a voluntary science popularization activity.
The main reason is that every time his father drinks that stuff, his face looks hideous and he looks extremely painful.
Is it possible for Gu Xuetang to think without being ferocious?
If you boil Gill in plain water, whoever drinks it will become ferocious!
But if that were the case, things would be much simpler.
The problem is that Gu Xuetang watched the whole process with the intention of refuting the rumors online.
Then, Gu Xuetang was at a loss.
Damn it, how did this thing turn into soup?
At first Gu Xuetang thought it might be a trick of the butcher shop owner.
In the end, he went to buy some for his father.
Then, it was still successful!
Butcher shop joint project?
Gu Xuetang was shocked.
Then in order to successfully convince his father, he took matters into his own hands.
As a result, he stayed in the laboratory for three days in a row...
In the past three days, Gu Xuetang read a large number of books and conducted many controlled experiments.
Although because of this thing, it has always been a relatively niche folk food.
There are not a large number of academic publications conducting research.
But until now, Gu Xuetang still doesn’t understand.
Why can it be done by his father but not by him?
Gu Xuetang felt that he had discovered something in a daze, but he seemed to have discovered nothing.
It's a state that drives researchers extremely crazy.
Although nothing was found.
Ke Gu Xuetang could vaguely feel that he had fallen into some kind of misunderstanding.
This made him feel like he was back in the arcane world.
Everything is so obscure yet simple.
All the difficulties can be solved with just a correct idea.
All, what's the direction?
Gu Xuetang thought for a while and lowered the temperature a little.
He took out his cell phone and looked at it.
The uploader who posted the video still didn't reply to him.
This is the most original source related to this that he can find.
This took him several days and used a lot of contacts.
Because his father found out about it through people in the guild when he was playing games...
But due to the opening of a new district, their guild was on the verge of dissolution.
Finally, Gu Xuetang found out about it through a neighbor uncle who also mastered the relevant formula.
Why can daddy do it but I can’t?
This is what makes Gu Xuetang most confused.
Using your own soup pot to boil a jelly in water is not like using a special magic weapon to make an elixir.
Are you co-authoring and looking for people to come?
Gu Xuetang looked out the window at the dark night, feeling a little dazed.
But he was still not convinced.
He turned on his phone again, where he found the shooting video that had been broken down into frame-by-frame comparison pictures.
No matter from the actions or steps, there is obviously no problem.
Gu Xuetang has tried clothing, movements, and height as variables.
But still no impact:
The material was still spinning in the boiling water in his hands.
So what exactly is it?
Gu Xuetang stared at the two comparison pictures and fell into deep thought.
Obviously, although they are father and son.
But the scenes of the two cooking are definitely different.
But he has already considered those variables.
What else is different?
Gu Xuetang tried to skip those complicated thoughts and only analyzed the differences between the two pictures from the most ordinary perspective.
Suddenly, Gu Xuetang was stunned.
Under the eyes of a non-researcher, he finally discovered a new variable!
In the photo, dad’s eyes are solemn and focused, which is his pride as a chef.
He is always able to focus his energy on cooking.
This is also what Gu Xuetang thinks is the most ridiculous:
Dad, an old chef, would still believe this?
The meat you have stewed should be measured in tons!
And his words were also focused, but obviously a little different.
He focused on those material changes, showing a subtle difference from his father's focus.
Is it because I don’t have enough energy to concentrate?
No, to be precise it should be...
Do you pay enough attention to cooking?
Or it can be extended to whether to believe it or not?
So, can this also be regarded as a variable that can be scientifically summarized?
Gu Xuetang shook his head and decided to give it a try.
Although this is obviously not enough to be a rigorous variable.
But there may be some other factors involved behind it that he has been ignoring.
Therefore, it can also be used as a preset premise.
Gu Xuetang decided to give it a try...
……………………
"Jingle Bell……"
The piercing ringing of the morning class bell woke up Gu School from its deep sleep.
He opened his sour eyes and saw the snow-white ceiling of the laboratory above his head.
Am I on the ground?
I slept on the lab floor all night?
After being in a daze for a long time, Gu Xuetang struggled to get up from the ground.
Fortunately, the air conditioner was turned on last night to protect the indoor temperature.
Otherwise, it would not be as simple as back pain...
In a daze, Gu Xuetang caught a glimpse of the air conditioner that was releasing heat.
After lying on the ground all night, he now felt as if his whole body was falling apart.
Some fragmented memories begin to trace back to a fragmented time period.
Gu Xuetang suddenly trembled, and then looked at the cooking pot on the experimental table next to him.
There, a pot of turbid, cooled soup was sitting there quietly!
Gu Xuetang's pupils suddenly tightened.
Then, regardless of his protest, he staggered over and ran over.
Gu Xuetang tried stirring the decoction.
I found that although it was turbid inside, it was completely transparent.
It's just that the color doesn't look like it's drinkable.
Reason told Gu Xuetang that this was the object of the first successful experiment, and it was a very important data specimen that might be difficult to replicate.
But some kind of instinct made him ready to act.
Or, just take a sip?
Facts have proved that if we only had pure rationality, Gu Xuetang would not be here.
In his bones, he has the same persistence as his father.
Gu Xuetang walked forward.
Then he picked up the soup pot.
Having made up his mind, he took the first sip without hesitation.
As expected, the unprecedented fishy smell and bitterness came instantly!
But perhaps because of so many days of exposure to experiments, Gu Xuetang unexpectedly found that it was not as hard to swallow as imagined.
At the right time, the sun was rising in the east, and light shone through the cracks in the window, falling on Gu Xuetang's hand holding the cooking pot.
In a daze, Gu Xuetang felt like he was grabbing a handful of sunshine and drinking it...
On the other side, Yi Xia, who was looking for land in the mountains, glanced at the newly displayed prompt message on her retina quite unexpectedly.
"Reminder from the comprehensive network: The related concepts of Sanyang decoction in the material world have been strengthened, and the progress of the next quality improvement has been greatly improved (69.8%)..."
