The Magician of the Star

Slessor was able to master magic medicine, spells, magic circles, magwenes, etc. at a young age, and became a formidable great magician. The heart of learning.

Shen Xingji sincerely felt that if Slesser was an aborigine of the central galaxy and grew up in the environment of the central galaxy, he might also become a top research talent, provided that he didn't go to the political arena halfway.But Slessor came through halfway after all. His knowledge framework and way of thinking have been finalized. How many years have passed since human beings left the earth. The technology of magic time and space is far inferior to the level of the middle and late stages of the earth. It is really difficult for Slesser. Thrilled!

Magic, in Shen Xingji's view, is very magical and wonderful.

But the way of expression of magic, in Shen Xingji's view, is very rough and simple.

Hearing that Slessor said that the mathematical model was a bit difficult, Shen Xingji suddenly panicked.The influence of phenylethylamine is non-discriminatory, and Shen Xingji is affected to the point of losing his IQ right now.He thought, he likes doing research with Slesser too much, but if Slesser can't get pleasure from doing research, then should he do it in the future, or not?

Cough, to make a digression, phenylethylamine, also known as PEA, is a kind of love hormone.

Shen Xingji suddenly remembered a little story, but forgot which children's book he read it from.I read it when I was a kid, but it still leaves a deep impression on me.He found the story instructive: "Let me tell you a story."

"Okay!" Slessor indulged.

"It is said that a long, long time ago, there was a little boy who lived in the city since he was a child. He returned to his grandparents' house in the country during the winter and summer vacation. He almost didn't play crazy in the country. He followed the children in the village up and down the mountains, went to Catch crabs and tadpoles in the creek, and block toads in the stinky ditch. He only wore a vest and shorts, because he often ran into the water, and his clothes were often wet. Later, he simply took off his clothes like the children in the village. The body is playing in the creek."

Slesser smiled and asked, "And then?"

The magician wondered in his heart, what is Xingji's intention in telling this story?Could it be that the point is "take off your clothes and be naked"?With this divergence, the magician almost failed to get his brain back, although he always had a decent smile on his face.

Shen Xingji continued: "Suddenly one day, the little boy found his little bird was itchy."

"What?" Slessor didn't hear clearly.

"Just, just little birds..." It's obviously something shared by men, but in front of Slessor, Shen Xingji really couldn't say the words "a few big ones", even with a scientific and rigorous attitude Saying "male reproductive organs" is still embarrassing!

Slesser was silent for a moment, and motioned for Shen Xingji to continue.

Shen Xing coughed very lightly, and continued to speak calmly: "His little bird has pimples, probably because he has been too naughty for a while, always wading in the not-so-clean water, maybe The little tadpole and the toad were carrying some kind of bacterial virus, in short, his bird was infected. He was so anxious that he ran back to find his grandparents crying."

Grandpa and grandma said don't be afraid, we have folk remedies for this!

"Remedies?" Slessor asked.

"Yes, there are so many scouting children in the village. It must have happened more than once that the bird was infected. Grandpa and grandma said that the folk remedy worked. The little boy watched his grandfather go to the duck shed to catch a bird with tears in his eyes. The duck came back and opened the duck's beak. Before the little boy could react, his bird was swallowed by the duck."

Slessor: "..."

Shen Xingji bit the bullet and continued: "Not to mention, this folk remedy really works. Although the duck did something indescribable, the pimple did slowly subside and it didn't itch anymore. Then a few days later , he will be completely fine."

Slessor: "..."

"When the little boy grew up, he recalled his childhood, and wanted to find out the principle of the folk remedies. Naturally, there were some superstitious explanations from the grandparents, saying that the small bumps were the marks left by the insect king on Tao Boy, Why did the Tao boys always go to harm the bugs, and the ducks eat bugs, and the bugs will be cured as soon as the ducks come out. The boy didn’t believe this. And then you guessed it? He really found out about it later. See Science backing in seemingly ridiculous folk remedies."

It turned out that an enzyme in the duck saliva played a role in curing the disease!

In fact, there is no need to be sucked by the duck's beak at all. It can also cure the disease by taking some duck saliva out and dabbing it on the bird.But the people in the village don't understand this, and they don't have the concept of "enzyme" in their minds. Many people really believe the saying that ducks open their mouths and eat bugs.As a result, the folk prescription is full of strange power and chaos.

"From a certain point of view, a magician's perception of magic is the same as that of villagers' perception of folk remedies." Shen Xingji said quickly, "If the villagers had already figured out the principle of the folk remedies, they would It is entirely possible to use scientific means to extract that enzyme and retain its activity to make medicine, then the process of curing diseases will become more efficient. In the same way, if you really understand the principle of magic, magic will also become more effective. more efficient and more aesthetically pleasing.”

Can magic be scientificized?Shen Xingji thinks it can!

Because science is an attitude and a method.It is not a conclusion.

Of course, comparing magic with folk formulas is a little underestimating magic.In any case, a magic family like Slessor has been passed down for thousands of years. In the long years, there will always be some academic magicians trying to study magic more deeply, right?But Shen Xingji's original intention was not to say that magic is bad. He said: "Science is the only way to achieve high efficiency. Magic is already amazing and powerful. For example, teleportation, you can use the magic circle to ignore the barriers of space and teleport to In front of me, it is like a potion that can completely transform a person into another person from the inside out, but..."

Shen Xingji looked at Slesser seriously: "But, it could have been stronger."

The words made Slesser's heart beat hard.

For a man like Slessor, his quest for power is never-ending.Even though he is already a top-level magician, even though the genetic potion has given him more magic power, he still insists on emptying his magic power once a week, relying on the soothing chamber to recover, and using this extreme method to continuously improve himself The ability to control magic power?

But scientificizing magic is definitely a huge and meticulous project.If Shen Xingji wants to engage in research in this area, he will need to spend a lot of time and energy, but the final research results will definitely not be released.In this world there is one and only one magician, Slessor, which is equivalent to Shen Xingji setting up an extremely difficult project for him alone.

"Although these multi-dimensional three-dimensional models seem very complicated," Shen Xingji said with some embarrassment, "it's actually not difficult. It's really not difficult. You should focus on the curve I marked, which represents the transformation of magic power Efficiency. In the theoretical model, the efficiency is as high as 91%, but the actual efficiency is only 83%, and there is still room for improvement.”

Slesser was in a complicated mood, but he joked: "If Professor Zhi knows that you have spent all your time and energy on this...he will definitely draw out a 40-meter sword to chase me down, thinking that I alone occupy the entire human race. resource."

Shen Xingji laughed: "No, if the teacher knows that magic exists in this world, he will definitely be as obsessed with the study of magic as I am. Teacher and I are a bit alike, we are both full of interest in the unknown."

Slessor laughed too.

Shen Xingji added: "What's more, besides studying and working, I should also have my own private time. It is a very long process to make magic thoroughly scientific. I can only help you make a model , Summarize and summarize the rules, the real research on magic depends on yourself, because your understanding of magic is the deepest."

Just like the folk recipe for duck spittle, Shen Xingji could try to find the "enzyme" only if Slesser took out the recipe first. After finding the enzyme, he needed Slesser to find a way to extract the enzyme.This is the scientific process.

"Then we've made a deal, we must insist on making magic scientific. So..." Shen Xingji's tone became visibly brighter, "In the future, as long as we have a vacation, we will stay in the same place as this time. Do research together."

I am simply a genius, Shen Xingji thought in his heart.

I accurately grasped Slesser's desire to become stronger, and successfully booked his holidays for this year, next year, and countless years to come... Shen Xingji was so happy that he almost burst out laughing The sound is coming.

Although it was a holiday, Shen Xingji did not lose contact with his teacher and senior sister.

Zhi Anlan would assign them homework and check their study progress every three to five days.Shen Xingji has just started in biomechanics - this is of course for a master like Zhi Anlan, if compared with ordinary students, Shen Xingji has gone farther than them - he has nothing but homework , There are still a lot of reading tasks.

Wei Xuanming deliberately contacted Shen Xingji, telling him not to neglect physical training.

Because he got along well with Slesser during the seminar, Wei Xuanming also said, "Say hello to Slesser for me." Hyun Ming also bought a lot of dried fish online and sent them over.

"What have you been up to lately?" Wei Xuanming asked casually.

"Just... study together. Where are you and senior sister?"

"It's the same, it's also studying." To be precise, Wen Da spared time to help Wei Xuanming make up theoretical lessons.The courses of the mecha major and the command major overlap, that is, those overlapping courses... Wei Xuanming will only pass the test.

In Wen Da's eyes, how could a pass be enough?Continue to learn for me!

Hearing the senior's answer, Shen Xingji couldn't help but chuckle.The senior sister and the senior are a loving couple. They are obsessed with studying during the vacation, and he and Slessor are also studying. If you round it up, it's just... Hehehe!

"There are so many things I don't understand, and I have a headache." Wei Xuanming said.

"It's the same, we...well, Slessor and I are also the same." Shen Xingji said.

"But you still have to learn, your senior sister is right, I will listen to her."

"Same, same!" Shen Xing said excitedly.It seems that the way of getting along between him and Slessor is exactly the same as that of Weixuan Mingwenda.Wasn't his story about folk remedies very good, and Slessor listened to it.

"Is it? What's more, if you learn well, you will be rewarded. If you get a question right, you will get a kiss." Wei Xuanming said sweetly.

Shen Xingji: "???"

Shen Xingji: "..."

In just one second, Shen Xingji experienced complicated mood changes, and responded indifferently: "Oh."
