Chapter 1917: Antibiotics

Liu Zheng had just entered when he heard shouting inside.

"Antibiotics are microorganisms!"

"They are things we cannot see, yet they truly exist. You cannot dismiss this great discovery!"

Liu Zheng saw several staff members dragging out another researcher who was wearing a white lab coat and had a face full of wrinkles.

As they walked, they said, "Huke, your discovery is not applicable to our research!"

"Those microorganisms you say exist on the surface of our skin, which you call bacteria, we have indeed seen with your help."

"But these things cannot provide any utility to our research direction!"

The group dragged this researcher named Huke to the doorway, saw Liu Zheng standing there, froze, and immediately released Huke, cupping their hands in a salute: "Lord Liu Zheng."

Liu Zheng nodded slightly and glanced at Huke; he had not expected that during his absence, the Medical Research Laboratory would give him the biggest surprise.

Other research departments had provided him with current research directions and data, but only the medical department had remained silent.

"Huke, you actually observed bacteria; then, have you discovered things like cells?"

Huke glanced at the other scholars, cupped his hands in a salute, and said, "Of course, Lord Liu Zheng. Those cells you speak of, I once used a Microscope—this is an observation tool I invented."

"I used it to observe onion epidermis, and I also used it to observe the cells on the surface of our human oral cavity."

"I discovered that there is a clear difference between the two, and it was on the surface of these cells that I also discovered something special: bacteria."

"But my Lord, how did you know the concept of cells?"

Liu Zheng was stunned; he couldn't exactly say he was a transmigrator, could he?

Liu Zheng pointed at those who were about to kick Huke out and laughed: "Isn't this the reason they want to kick you out?"

Huke bowed again, not expecting Liu Zheng to be so concerned about his affairs.

It turned out Liu Zheng had already understood this matter.

Liu Zheng looked at everyone and said: "Cells and bacteria—this will be the direction of our antibiotic research from now on. This is a great discovery."

Someone said indignantly: "Lord Liu Zheng, this person says that we, like those pigs and dogs, or even plants, are all composed of cells."

"How could this possibly be true? They only possess an exterior similar to ours. We are the descendants of gods; how could we be the same as those things we eat!"

"Not only that, he also said that diseases are caused by bacteria, and that we can eliminate diseases as long as we eliminate bacteria!"

"For this matter, he even prepared to inject Alcohol into the human body to eliminate bacteria!"

Liu Zheng glanced at Huke; he hadn't expected him to be so intense!

Liu Zheng looked at the person who had just spoken: "You say we are children of gods, then have you read the Evolution Theory I wrote?"

"Humans and apes have so many similarities, or are even said to be the same; do you think these things are all fake?"

"Gods are fictional. Our research is the result obtained after repeated verification. Can you call these fake?"

"If you want to prove your god is real, then go and verify him!"

That person froze and stopped speaking.

Liu Zheng looked at Huke again and earnestly instructed: "Your ideas are good, but people get drunk when they drink alcohol. Have you thought about what would happen to a person if a large amount of alcohol were injected into their body?"

Huke said blankly: "They would never wake up?"

Liu Zheng nodded solemnly: "They would die!"

"Your research direction should be to discover those things that can eliminate harmful bacteria in the bodies of the sick, allowing them to regain their health!"

"Moreover, not all diseases are necessarily caused by bacteria. Humans also have lifespans; their cells should also undergo changes. You should observe more."

"See what kind of changes these cells undergo."

A glimmer of light flashed in Huke's eyes, and he muttered: "No wonder. When I treat those who have caught a cold, some can be cured, while others can never be cured."

After resolving these issues, Liu Zheng looked at the people in the Medical Research Laboratory and asked: "How is your research on the human anatomy department going?"

Huke stepped forward and said: "I am in charge of that department."

Huke looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "My Lord, please come this way!"

Liu Zheng looked at the grave expressions on the faces of these medical scientists.

Following them into a cramped room, Liu Zheng saw knives and tools hanging all over the walls as soon as he entered, along with a large pig. He finally understood why those people fled in terror after coming here.

Even the deepest dungeon torture instruments in the Dragon Flame Nation were not as comprehensive or terrifying as this place!

But what was up with this pig?

Liu Zheng's expression froze as he looked at a burly man wearing dark brown clothes.

His face full of flesh was so out of place with those refined researchers; he looked more like a butcher!

"My Lord, let me introduce you. This is the best pig butcher in Liangzhou. He can precisely dissect any part of a pig."

"Even for meat and bones that are difficult to separate, he knows how to separate them accurately."

The butcher looked at Liu Zheng, his mouth splitting into a grin: "My Lord, hehe... everything they said is true. Give me a live pig, and I can process it clean within two hours."

Liu Zheng was stunned and glanced at the plaque above the room; he hadn't come to the wrong place.

It was indeed the human anatomy department.

Huke saw Liu Zheng's confusion, pulled him aside, and whispered: "My Lord, how would we dare to study living humans? We thought we would first study the slaughter of live pigs, see what the pig looks like after being separated, increase our knowledge, and then develop in the direction of humans."

"Taking it step by step..."

Liu Zheng glanced at him and thought to himself... as expected of you experts; you've even discovered the direction of veterinary medicine.

Liu Zheng said helplessly: "Who told you to dissect living humans? Don't we have donations of the dead?"

"I told you to use those for research..."

That person laughed twice and said: "My Lord, don't be angry. I will show you the results of our research right now."

"Erzhuang, do it!"

The butcher skillfully knocked the live pig unconscious.

Then he did some things to this pig that were not suitable for children, and Liu Zheng finally understood why his clothes were dark brown.

After some butchering of the pig, the big white pig that had been jumping around just a moment ago became very scattered and fragmented.

Liu Zheng seemed to hear the sound of someone swallowing saliva.

He was slightly stunned, only to see the butcher wipe his hands on his clothes and say, "It's all done. My lords, take a look; this pig today is very large and will be enough for you lords to eat for quite a while."

Liu Zheng was stunned, covering his face with his hand, unable to decide whether to laugh or cry.

Am I researching human anatomy here, or am I researching some Dragon Flame delicacy... a whole-pig feast?

But those research scholars invited him, saying, "My lord, please step forward; we shall now demonstrate our research results for you, my lord."

"My lord, please look, this pig has been castrated; without reproductive functions, it will have much less of a gamey smell."
