Lu Xingyin didn't eat breakfast, he brought the time he bought from Kang Qin, and another chance to do the experiment, plus there was still time and space left this time, he still had eight hours of experiment time.

The windows of the laboratory were facing east, and the curtains were thin, unable to block the sunlight. The scorching sun from the east filled the entire laboratory, making people's cheeks ache.

Several members of the provincial team in the laboratory discussed it, and pasted tinfoil on the window of the laboratory one by one, so as not to affect the temperature of the experiment.After pasting, the laboratory seemed to be in the dark, but the heat of the crucible rose again, and sweat kept coming out, which was wiped off by paper towels.

Later in the morning, the number of people in the laboratory increased, and Gu Fangwei had no reason to stay here anymore.Cooked food cannot be brought into the laboratory, so Gu Fangwei went outside to buy iced drinks and biscuits, and put them on the Deer Walking Table when he came back.

He wanted to say a few more words to Lu Xingyin, but when he saw that Lu Xingyin was tilting his head to read carefully, his jet-black hair was wet and stuck to his forehead. He wanted to say something, but he also closed his mouth, and just put the things lightly. Put it into Deer Walking Yin's schoolbag.

"I'm going first." The voice was inaudible.

Qiuhu has been in full swing these days, and has been basking in the laboratory continuously since yesterday.The dark and gloomy laboratory is like a steamer. Many people come and go, and most of them can't stand this environment.

The Q provincial team is the strongest, with 15 people in total, and all 15 people entered the laboratory at eight o'clock.

Cheng Ke noticed Lu Xingyin in the corner, and casually asked the boy next to him: "Milk God, how many of you in the lab have been up all night?"

The square-faced boy with Gao Yuanhong looked back and shrugged his shoulders: "They are all from a few weak provinces. They probably don't have much chance to get in touch with experiments usually. I'm doing other things."

This was said in a moderate voice, and without avoiding other people's words, the students in the back row immediately cast their eyes in displeasure.Cheng Ke couldn't help laughing, and the Gao Yuanhong boy gave him a look inexplicably.

"Class at 09:30, are you going?" Cheng Ke asked.At the same time, some people from behind came in one after another. Although they were not from the same provincial team, they obviously knew each other.

Cheng Ke shook his head and smiled: "Classes still have to be attended, you can't skip class."

"Milk God" shrugged his shoulders again: "Isn't it just talking about Daben Wuji, what's so good about it? Why don't you spare time to do experiments."

"The class still has to be taught." Cheng Ke smiled and shook his head, but insisted on this sentence.

They are not from the same province, but perhaps because of the relationship between the chemistry island, or the difference in their own grades, the competition circle is also very clear. The students with scores of 85-100 in the preliminary competition form a school of their own, and this difference even It doesn't come from the students' willingness, but from the gap itself - those who are less than this segment are still working on the basics, and what they talk about is already different from others.

The light and shadow shining on the table turned without showing a trace, and the timer on the table was beating every second, and the group of students in the morning also left, rushing to class.Cheng Ke deliberately came to ask him, "Shall we go to class together?"

Lu Xingyin shook his head.

Everyone else is gone.

No one dared to skip class, and the laboratory suddenly became quiet, from noisy and stuffy to quiet and stuffy.

The clothes on Lu Xingyin's body were already soaked, and his arms and back were all acidic from standing and bowing his head for a long time.He is verifying the experimental steps step by step to make sure that everything is perfectly in line with the standard answer, but the result is a huge difference.

He always thinks about this, the gap between him and the theoretical output, the gap between him and others.

He sighed, washed the utensils aside again, and put them back in place, only then did he find the drinks and biscuits on the table.The drink still has air-conditioning remaining, and it feels refreshing and comfortable to the touch.

Lu Xingyin inserted the straw and took a sip. There were extremely thin slices of mint in this drink, which would break into free-floating snow particles when poked with the straw.

Lu Xingyin stared at the swaying and slowly falling ice particles, and suddenly stood up.

He glanced at his test bench—there are a wide variety of spare chemical reagents, and the one he uses the most these days is anhydrous sodium carbonate, which is used to prepare alkaline illusions.He searched, but didn't find the bottle he wanted, and then looked to the side.

The milk god in front heard the movement and looked back at him: "What are you looking for?"

"Potassium carbonate." Lu Xingyin said.

Milk God looked at his desktop: "I have it, you are doing the 99 National Judgment Experiment"

Lu Xingyin was startled.

The other party knew what experiment he was doing as soon as he heard it. He tentatively asked: "The teacher said sodium carbonate in the lecture, but the yield is not high. I want to try it with potassium carbonate, which may provide a stronger alkalinity." environment."

"Ah, then you don't need to try it, go back to sleep. Potassium carbonate is used in this experiment, but not many people know that sodium carbonate is used in the textbooks and bid answers, because the reaction process is easy to control. The weak coach I don’t know, the coaches in strong provinces don’t go around talking about it, and ordinary students really don’t know how to replace it with potassium carbonate. There are many such pitfalls in the experiment.” Milk God suddenly became interested in him, “Which province are you from? ?”

"Province S." Lu Xingyin said.

"Oh, the weakest province that ranks fourth from the bottom... I'm from province z, the province that ranks the first from the bottom." Milk God introduced himself in a low-key manner, with a confident and powerful tone.He looked at Lu Xingyin, and suddenly asked, "Are you on Chemical Island?"

Lu Xingyin was taken aback, "Yes."

"Yes, but it doesn't appear often, right?" Milk God quickly flipped through the group, "Which one are you? I'll pull you into a new group, this one is jointly formed by me and the bar owner, Cheng Ke, named It's called the 'Chemistry Contest Datong Project', referred to as the microphone group."

"'Chemistry Contest Datong Project'?" Lu Xingyin asked.

"Have you ever learned the chapter on Li Yun Datong?" The milk god shook his head and recited a paragraph, "The journey of the great way is also, the world is for the public, the virtuous and capable, trustworthy and harmonious, old people don't only kiss their relatives, they don't only have sons and sons so that the old will end, the strong will be used, the young will be strong, the widows, the widows, the lonely, the disabled and the sick will all be supported; men will have a share, and women will return, and the evil will not be hidden in the ground, and the evil will not come out. You don’t have to do it for yourself, it’s because you plan to shut it down and don’t prosper, you don’t commit thieves and thieves, so you don’t shut it up when you’re outside, that’s called Great Harmony..."

The way he shook his head and endorsed the book was a bit funny, but Lu Xingyin vaguely understood something.

"The chemistry competition Datong project is to create a platform. The purpose is to break through the geographical restrictions of the national competition students and the limitations of educational resources. You see, I am weak and you are weak. Our experiments are not poor because others are smarter than us, but Because we don’t have any experimental resources.” Milk God’s eyes are bright, “I know your competition coach in S Province, Chen Chong, he is very good at theory, but he is not in charge of the experiment. Do you want to join us? Can you think of changing it? Potassium carbonate, you are very smart. In the past two days, I have seen several waves of people come to do this experiment, and the yields are all below 1 gram.”

Lu Xingyin lowered his head to find the microphone plan section, and clicked in.

There are two moderators, one is [Shen Du] and the other is [Eight Packs of Pure Milk].

"We are the Chemistry Great Harmony program, or CGHP for short."

"We are a project, an experimental project, an experimental project about a chemical competition model, a project that uses the Internet as a medium to exchange and discuss chemical knowledge and achieve common progress. We believe that it is necessary to become an outstanding player in the chemical competition. There are two factors - people and information, but the chemistry competition selects people rather than information. Through communication, students from non-competition schools can also obtain the same information as students from competition schools, and then break through the barrier of impersonal factors. To achieve common progress, let more—the real chemists with the spirit and strength of chemists, realize their dreams of chemists.” (This paragraph quotes @松鸡365, the declaration of the chemical competition breakthrough plan)

"We welcome competition students from all over the country. We can promise two points: first, completely ban water and focus on learning and communication; second, under the premise of confirming the situation, give full play to the positive influence of the Internet to protect everyone Rights in the race to avoid the CCHO stigma like last year."

Lu Xingyin often browses the chemical island, knowing the traffic of the chemical island, there are at most [-] or [-] replies to a post, and most of the contestants are silent and modest, but he saw that in this new sub-forum, a month's time , has broken through thousands of replies.

Countless contestants came out and left messages: "Apply to join!"

A large number of replies are filled with self-introduction and goal motivation.

The nickname of the third floor [Qingyou Xiaoyu]: "Apply to join! Bye bye God of Milk and God of Ke! The weak provincial players here, the best result of the school is only the national bronze medal. Met a lot of friends, ranked 41 in the province in the second year of high school last year, did not completely give up the idea of ​​the college entrance examination, just want to fight, because I really like chemistry! The most worrying thing at present is the experiment. "

The fourth floor [biubiuxia]: "The first team from province H came to report!!! Worship the Milk God crazily!!! You are a legend in our province!!! There is no competition coach in the whole province, and the chemistry teacher can't even teach elective three Clear, but I love chemistry so much! I hope I can get a 98.5 score in the theoretical test of the junior high school like Milk God! Ahhhhhh!!!

Fifth floor [want to eat grilled squid skewers]: "Province Q came to register for senior high school!!! Now I have finished the Fukuyama questions, and I am watching ART and Greenwood. I copied the big book by hand five times and generalized four times. The senior high school ranked 77 points in the province. One hundred years away, I encountered reform again, and my parents and teachers didn’t support me to continue. It was very painful before, but I decided to continue!! The front row worships the brothers of the provincial team!!!”

……

So many posts, like snowflakes pouring into my eyes, countless dreams, the expectation and love behind countless networks, made Lu Xingyin shocked.

Like stagnant water flowing down, clear springs pouring in.

Lu Xingyin suddenly realized something.

Does he like chemistry?

I don’t know when this kind of love started. He loves and likes everything that allows him to understand the world, from physics to chemistry to mathematics—grabbing a handful of Artemisia annua on a dirty medicine transport truck, far away from the other side of the world , an outstanding female scientist is receiving the Nobel Prize for artemisinin. In the rainy day, she scoops up a handful of dirty muddy water and mixes it with ink, imagining that she is Breaking Bad, on the Milky Way that is not covered by industrial pollution in Dongtong City , he can imagine himself escaping from Earth at escape velocity.

It was everything he had ever dreamed of, too.

Before grandma deer, before illness, before poverty.

Lu Xingyin stayed in the laboratory until twelve noon, bought a bucket of instant noodles at the canteen, brought them back to the dormitory, and then fell into a deep and long sleep.

This experiment was a success, and the yield reached 99%.

The bottleneck that has plagued him for a long time seems to have been gently broken on this ordinary and ordinary morning-maybe it is not broken, but awakened.His long-standing thinking of solving problems with three axes may not be suitable for the subject of chemistry, or in other words, not suitable for chemistry competitions.

Habit and talent can make him reach 80 points, but he can't make a breakthrough.

This is a subject that needs to be explored, full of unknowns and interesting, he can no longer find the solution from the known, because all these past and present are produced in the unknown.

There is empty potassium carbonate in the laboratory bench, he can think of maybe using potassium carbonate instead of reaction, but more often?What about when he couldn't see the empty bottle in sight?

He dreamed fitfully.

The door of the dormitory was pushed open, and several teammates came in to have a look, and found Lu Xingyin lying on the bed, so they lightened their hands and turned on the air conditioner for him.

On the other side, the chemistry lab.

"Little classmate, are you still leaving? It's time for dinner." There was a test in the evening, and everyone went back to review. The chemistry competition laboratory was uncharacteristically silent.

The cleaning old man knocked on the door and saw a tall and beautiful boy inside.

Gu Fangwei held the pipette, with a little sweat on his forehead, bent down to check the pipes: "Let's go later, there is a mosquito nest here."

"Mosquito nest?" The cleaner was puzzled.

"The doors and windows are sealed, and there are so many mosquitoes biting people, there should be a nest here - I saw it." Gu Fangwei looked and saw it in a stagnant water pipe, "This pipe won't go away. For the chemical reagents, I will seal it with an asbestos net first if it is connected to clean water."

He squatted down to work, sweating from the heat, and the sweat rolled into his eyes, causing a stinging pain.

The uncle was amazed: "You child is also very careful, this building is full of mosquitoes, you can fix it by yourself."

"It's okay, it's just that the person I like likes to do experiments, I think he is always bitten." Gu Fangwei thought to himself, with Lu Xingyin's white skin and tender flesh, it's no wonder mosquitos like it, it must be easy to bite.It seems that the mosquitoes cannot be blamed too much.

It's a pity that Lu Xingyin broke up with him before he had time to experience it himself.
