The moment Xia Sanghuan pushed open the door of the research lab, she felt as if she had finally obtained the sacred scriptures after going through eighty - one hardships.
Hearing the noise at the door, Professor He just glanced at her and then continued to focus on the data in front of him.
"Professor, thank you for giving me a day off yesterday."
She bowed to him. After all, in scientific research, missing a day of work would mean falling behind by more than just a little progress.
"The young master of the Leng family called me himself. Could I not give you a day off?"
"Moreover, you got sick because of working so hard here. If I didn't let you have a good rest, I wouldn't be able to explain it to Xiao Song."
The young master of the Leng family... Did he mean Leng Chuanjin? Did her second brother call the professor himself?
Her second brother actually called the professor for her sake?
Moreover, judging from his attitude, compared with other doctors who were respectful and even afraid of Leng Chuanjin, he seemed extremely confident.
As if seeing through what Xia Sanghuan was thinking, Professor He let out a cold snort.
"Those people are afraid of Leng Chuanjin because all day long they just know how to put on an act beside the young master of the Leng family's bed. They can't come up with any research results. I'm different from them. I'm not the kind of person who would go to the battlefield without having any real skills!"
Professor He's words not only showed his profound knowledge and stubborn character but also gave Xia Sanghuan some confidence.
As long as he could keep persevering with her, the active ingredients of the Black - boned Spiritual Treasure would surely be extracted. By then, Leng Jingzhan would be saved.
However, now they not only had to extract the active ingredients but also put the results into use as soon as possible. Otherwise, in the end, they might still be too late.
They had to do their best to race against time and rescue Leng Jingzhan before death came.
"Alright, stop standing there. Come over and analyze the data with me."
He threw a stack of documents at her. They were the data of the active ingredients of the Black - boned Spiritual Treasure that she had printed from the instrument the day before yesterday.
Moreover, following the data were string after string of detailed analyses.
As she flipped through the documents, she sighed silently in her heart.
Professor He was truly the preeminent medical doctor of the day. In just one day, he had analyzed the data so comprehensively and even added his own annotations, presenting the results from multiple aspects.
Although she had learned a lot of medical knowledge from her master, both her skills and experience were still rather inexperienced.
At first, she just thought of him as an extra helper in the research. But now, she gradually felt respect for him in her heart.
Her master was meticulous, but he was reluctant to say much about the details.
Now that she had the opportunity to do research with Professor He, there were still some details for her to learn.
After flipping through the documents roughly, she found that there was no other information after the percentage of some ingredients.
Did the professor forget to check them?
With this question in mind, Xia Sanghuan walked over to him with the documents in her arms.
"Professor, I've roughly understood these contents, but... why are there no analyses and annotations for these parts?"
He took the documents and glanced at them.
"Because I've never seen them before."
"What?"
Hearing such a straightforward answer, she was momentarily stunned.
"Because I've never seen them before!"
Seeing her dazed look, he added forcefully.
Normally, for a respected professor - level medical doctor like him, there were very few things he didn't understand.
Moreover, even if he did encounter something he didn't know, he would just find an excuse to gloss over it and would never easily let others know his ignorance.
At least that's what the so - called experts and doctors she had met before were like.
"So, do you have any ideas?"
She quickly gathered her wandering thoughts and replied, "I've seen introductions about these ingredients in some ancient books, but I need to think about the specific content."
"Ancient books? What kind of ancient books would record such things?"
Seeing that he was suspicious, she quickly explained, "I spent the first eighteen years of my life in the countryside. I was an apprentice at the village clinic for a short period during my childhood."
"That rural doctor had a whole cabinet of books. I liked to flip through them when I was free."
"You know, there are always some strange ancient books in the countryside. It's not strange for me to have come across them."
Obviously not believing her explanation, Professor He let out a cold snort.
"Humph, both you and old Xiao are hiding something from me. Well, as long as the research can continue, I don't care about other things."
Seeing that he finally stopped pursuing the matter, she let out a sigh of relief.
After all, she didn't want others to know that she was Yun Qi, the only personal disciple of the legendary "Medical Monster".
To avoid being asked any more strange questions by him, she carried the documents back to her area and sat on the chair to start analyzing these ingredients.
Actually, half of what she said to Professor He just now was a lie.
Because the detailed descriptions of these ingredients were already deeply ingrained in her mind.
Xia Sanghuan sighed. Fortunately, her master had forced her to memorize ancient books for a while before.
Otherwise, even she wouldn't know what to do when faced with these things.
There were three ingredients that Professor He didn't mark.
According to the ancient books, these three ingredients were unique to the Black - boned Spiritual Treasure.
They were also the key to the Black - boned Spiritual Treasure's ability to cure all kinds of incurable diseases.
Relying on her memory, she picked up a pen and quickly wrote down the analyses and annotations following the professor's method.
The functions of the ingredients were very complex and couldn't be written clearly in just a few words.
After listing the key points, she took a few more pieces of paper and wrote down the detailed introductions of these ingredients respectively.
After finishing everything, she put down the pen, shook her wrist, picked up the documents, and read through her own writing from beginning to end carefully.
There were a few places where her ideas conflicted with Professor He's. She circled them with a red pen and wrote down the explanations and her own opinions on another piece of paper.
By the time everything was done, it was just time for lunch.
Xia Sanghuan looked at her phone and thought she would spend another half - hour to wrap up the document content and then go for lunch.
Unexpectedly, Professor He walked over and directly dragged her out of the door.
"Come on, let's go for lunch."
She clung to the armrest of the chair reluctantly, looking unwilling to go.
"Professor, I'm just one step away from finishing. I'll go for lunch after I'm done organizing."
As a result, the professor glared at her and said angrily, "With so many complicated and messy data, when will you finish organizing?"
"Moreover, the eldest young master of the Leng family said that if you get sick again because of overwork, he will sue me to the labor association!"
