Alien Knights

Chapter 13: Parasites

   Todd was swaying and struggling to get out of bed, when little Jerry saw it, he hurried over to help him stand on the ground.

   After standing still, the boy motioned to the tall young man to lie down on the bed.

   The opponent did not move and his face was confused, so he had to pat the edge of the bed again, and said, "Lie down."

   Jerry obeyed.

   In other people's puzzled eyes, Todd lifted the clothes on his abdomen, using the ability of perspective, looked at the opponent's kidneys.

   The parasite resembling a "leech" is still there, but its figure is only half the size of yesterday, about 7 cm, and its activity frequency is much lower, and it looks a lot quieter.

   Moved his face up, adding static at close range, allowing Todd to observe the worm's body more closely. Looking closely in this way, this parasite is different from the "leech". Its mouthparts are connected to multiple segments of the body. Below each segment, there are two organs similar to "beard feet" directly inserted into the renal fascia.

   Regardless of the appearance, body, and food habits, this parasite has never been discovered in the medical world of the previous life. It is a brand new species.

After a period of physiological observation, Todd discovered that this adrenal parasite uses "physiological stimulation" every certain period of time-the worm's body moves, and uses the "stubble" to stimulate the adrenal glands and obtain the adrenal glands from the host. Then use the mouthparts to absorb the secreted adrenaline into the worm cavity and store it in the body. After the amount obtained exceeds the upper limit of the worm body inventory, the secretion fluid will be sprayed out at one time, forming an intermittent response of the host, resulting in the regular "rage" time of Jerry.

   Todd motioned little Jerry to turn sideways and looked at the worm from a different angle.

   While using "Perspective", he was thinking about the solution.

   If you are in a previous life, you can perform local anesthesia by surgery to remove the parasites. But under the current conditions, let alone an operation, even an anesthesia environment can't be achieved.

   Straightening up, Todd touched the bridge of his nose with his hand, closing his eyes with a headache.

Or, if you have a complete set of equipment in a biochemical laboratory, such as a "nucleic acid protein chromatograph", a "DNA sequence analysis tank", etc., you can determine the corresponding microRNAs of the parasites and make " Gene suppression drugs.

   But now this broken place, let alone biochemical equipment, can't even find a dropper!

How to do it?

   Hudgens exchanged glances with Edgar. The former leaned closer to Todd and said carefully, "Do you have a way to cure little Jerry?"

   The apprentice was silent for a while, and said, "I need to think about it..."

  After thinking about it for a long time, there is still no clue. Todd sighed and signaled that Jerry could get up from the bed.

   The Slavic man looked disappointed, but he quickly changed the subject: "Let’s put aside Jerry’s matter. Regarding the previous issue of refining silver, I found a few reliable people..."

   Listening to the other person in his ears, but thinking about the heterogeneity mentioned by Hudgens in his mind, Todd suddenly remembered that this man and Edgar had heterogeneous abilities. Could it also be because of parasites in his body?

   Looking at the past with the perspective ability, Huggins's hand can vaguely see the "black particles" constantly drifting, and there is a hazy "gray mist" in the neural tube of Edgar's lower body.

   The foreign substances in these two people are not like parasites, maybe they are smaller creatures than parasites?

Temporarily gave up the idea of ​​exploring, thinking that Master Miles just gave himself a vacation these days, Todd nodded: "You are right, let us first focus on the transformation of the "ashblowing furnace". ."

   drew out the drawings from the bottom of the bed, and the boy explained to Huggins several important projects for the renovation of the furnace body.

   Since the equipment foundation of the "farmer stove" is already available, only the stove top, stove pan, and stove can be modified on top of it.

High alumina bricks or refractory bricks should have been used for the roof of the furnace, but due to conditions, limestone bricks can only be used reluctantly; the stove is the most critical equipment, and it needs to be built with high temperature resistant materials to build a rectangular shape. Generally, magnesia bricks or cement are used. Refractory bricks, but it can barely be used instead of wrought iron; the furnace needs to be processed with laminated materials, and air and heavy oil need to be blown in to ensure the removal of impurities and the smooth flow of gas. Generally, the furnace body with a depth of 1.5 meters needs to be constructed. If there are more than four furnace channels, wrought iron and stone can be used as the material.

   I don’t know. If you calculate it carefully, the material and labor costs will cost a lot of money for the "furnace reconstruction" alone.

   Just as the penniless Todd was embarrassed, Huggins was willing to take out all his belongings to support him, and Edgar also stepped forward and was willing to contribute all his pocket money.

   Looking at the painful appearance of the two, Todd really had some doubts. He didn't even dare to say anything about it. Why should these two guys have such great enthusiasm.

   But he didn't know that Master Miles said about his "Blessing of the Son", which has penetrated into the hearts of the two.

   Then, Hudgens made a suggestion to divide the drawings into several copies according to the engineering quantity and entrust them to different craftsmen to make them.

After thinking about it for a moment, Todd understood what he meant. He disassembled the processed products and made them separately. Every craftsman did not know what he was making and what purpose it was; but if he commissioned a person to make it, it would be hard to be clever. One will see the doorway inside. In the final analysis, it is for "technical secrecy."

   After agreeing to this suggestion, UU read www. uukanshu. com soon the three of them began to divide the work.

   Hudgens is responsible for bringing the decomposed drawings and going to different villages to find someone to process equipment.

   Todd went to the smelter at the foot of the mountain to make preparations for silver refining.

   Edgar went to the market to purchase consumable materials such as wood, charcoal, and oil.

   The three set off immediately, and started to work formally in the morning.

I rushed to the smelting site, first used the principle of "Serving Heavenly Father" to teach the craftsmen an ideological and political lesson, and then took them to modify the furnace body to adapt to the next equipment installation, and fill in Some of the waste **** from the silver mine in the mountain was dug out and piled up on the open ground.

   After all this was busy, Todd sat among the craftsmen and chatted with everyone without a word, but his eyes caught a glimpse of little Jerry who was squatting aside not far away.

   This guy who is close to two meters tall is a conspicuous presence no matter where he goes.

   Todd found it strange that since he woke up, the tall and thin young man had followed him and kept walking.

   In the words of Huggins, he wants to be your personal bodyguard. This is his own way of "atonement".

   The monk apprentice sneered at this statement, remembering that this guy might be going crazy one day, this kind of close behavior, in his opinion, is more like "seeking help."

   It was about one o'clock that afternoon, and Edgar returned with a carriage full of consumables.

   At about five o'clock in the evening, Huggins also rushed to the scene with the first batch of furnace equipment.

   instructed the craftsmen to install and adjust the "ash-blowing furnace". Todd rubbed his hands and lit the charcoal in the furnace with a torch. The red flame instantly illuminated his face.

"let's start."
