Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 161 The End of Science

Yang Xiaotao ignored Lou Xiaoe's actions.

This time, Xu Damao's reputation was spread.

It is estimated that these days, I dare not go out.

Yang Xiaotao didn't think it was too much, for a bad guy like Xu Damao, to save him some face is to be cruel to the future.

Yang Xiaotao wanted to make a move several times, and humanely destroyed the beasts in the yard.

But he didn't dare after all.

Firstly, there is no chance, and secondly, the criminal police in this era are not vegetarians. Even if there are no cameras in the streets and alleys, it is not a verbal saying that the whole people are soldiers. Those old ladies with small feet are no worse than cameras.

No, Xiao Li, the director of the street office, led the people to the courtyard the next day.

After some questioning and knowing the facts, they called Sha Zhu, Xu Damao's family and Yang Xiaotao into the yard.

First of all, criticize the education of Sha Zhu for beating people, and then criticize Yang Xiaotao's behavior. If this kind of thing that hurts the socialism is not advocated, it will easily corrupt the social atmosphere.

In the end, Xu Damao was punished, and he didn't run away from street cleaning for a month.

Even Lou Xiao'e was told a few words that a husband and wife are one, and some things cannot be escaped.

Before leaving, he gave some advice to the uncles.

All in all, this is the only way for the street office to know about it, but for Xu Damao, it is already a shame.

Lou Xiao'e was even more worried about the situation of the Lou family because of this matter, and treated Xu Damao hard.

As for being more ruthless and letting Xiaowei take action, Yang Xiaotao also had some concerns.

During the last military parade, Xiaowei's performance was not normal.

Since he can travel through time, what else can't happen?

Therefore, Yang Xiaotao didn't intend to let Xiaowei make a move until the critical moment.

Putting these messy things aside, Yang Xiaotao once again focused on hybrid corn.

Even looking for a woman was put aside by him, what else could bother him.

Time flies, and after entering June, the hybridization experiment has entered a critical moment.

With Xiaowei's help in the previous experiments, the experiment time was shortened, and the precise operation also increased the success rate of the experiment.

But experiments are experiments.

Starting from scratch is often a long and painful process.

Just like now, Yang Xiaotao looked at the records in his notebook, each one was well written, but in the end, he always failed unexpectedly.

"Why."

"What's wrong?"

In the dark night, Yang Xiaotao looked up at the blurred roof, his whole body became haggard, his dark circles were closed, and his mind was full of English combinations.

It has been more than a month, and what I have experienced is not only failure, but also failure.

He couldn't figure it out. It was obvious that it was successful at the beginning, and all the experiment process was carried out according to the records in the notes. It stands to reason that the final result is the ideal type of miscellaneous corn.

But the experiment still failed in the end.

Most importantly, Yang Xiaotao couldn't find the reason for his failure.

In other words, the whole experiment was wrong from the time of design.

But these theoretical basis are all inherited from Mendel, so it cannot be said that Mendel also made mistakes?
If so, isn't Mendel's law of heredity also wrong?

Yang Xiaotao shook his head, resting his arms on his forehead.

Xiao Wei could feel the master's anxiety, but she had tried her best, but she still couldn't meet the master's request.

At this moment, looking at Yang Xiaotao feeling sad, Xiaowei flew to the window and half of her body was hidden in the wooden planks.

Outside, a buzzing mosquito was flapping its wings and flying into the house. The next second, the wooden thorn on the door frame pierced through its abdomen and fell to the ground.

Become the object of Xiaowei's vent.

Farther away, a mosquito circled the door, saw what happened to the old man, turned around and flew to the opposite side.

"Somewhere must be wrong."

Yang Xiaotao suddenly opened his eyes, still unwilling in his heart.

The experiment has come to this point, how can I just give up?
He was not reconciled.

Get up, turn on the light, pick up paper and pen to calculate again.

The initial experimental design, selection experience, and final results were sorted out and put aside.

Then there are the grains that Xiaowei chooses.

The first time was to select the parts with the most energy in the roots and corn kernels, and the experiment failed.

For the second time, the pollen with the most energy was selected, and as a result, it failed.

For the third time, the stems and leaves of the selected female parent had more energy, and as a result, failed.

For the fourth time, the male and female parents selfed, and after the fruit was produced, they were cultivated again, hoping to find homozygotes.As a result, the corn grown was all the same.It shows that the dominant gene in the father has been expressed.

Through Xiaowei's discrimination of energy, the strongest, strong and weakest three are selected, and after planting separately, the strongest breeding is used again.

As a result, it failed.

The fifth time, the weakest breeding was picked and the result failed.

The sixth time, selection of intermediate strains for breeding, still failed.

The seventh time, turn to maternal research.

……

No.20 once crossed the weakest female parent with the strong, medium and weak male parent, and all failed.

Yang Xiaotao threw the pen aside, looked at the sorted out information, his eyes were burning, trying to find out the flaws in it.

As the night passed by, the moon was flickering in the clouds, Yang Xiaotao only felt his eyes sore and his mind was in chaos.

No clue!

Tears flowed from the eyes and slid into the mouth, bitter, astringent, and salty.

"Too fucking unscientific, unscientific."

Yang Xiaotao got up, went to the window, and took out a pack of cigarettes.

He, who usually doesn't smoke, also feels upset at this moment.

After smoking a cigarette, my throat became even more dry.

cluck cluck
After pouring a mug of water, the whole person calmed down again.

Looking at the white papers on the table, there are many English combinations on it, and I am dazzled, but there is no mistake.

"Nothing wrong, nothing wrong."

"Then, what's wrong?"

Yang Xiaotao stroked his chin, stabbed his hands with stubble, but there was a special rhythm.

"Or, was it wrong from the beginning?"

Suddenly, Yang Xiaotao returned to the initial choice.

"No, the experiment has been verified, even if other methods are used, the result is still a failure."

Soon, it was self-denial again.

Yang Xiaotao seemed to see his mother, a successful mother, smiling at him on the table.

砰

It hit the table in a circle, and a dent appeared on the table immediately.

Seeing Xiaowei at the side, she hid in the wood and watched the master carefully. It took a long time before she flew to the table and repaired it facing the wooden pit.

Yang Xiaotao was distracted for a while, when he saw Xiaowei repairing the table.

A string in my mind was plucked instantly.

Since from a scientific point of view, I may have done everything that can be done.

So why not break through the science?
"Everything that can be explained is attributed to science, and everything that cannot be explained is attributed to theology."

"The end of science is metaphysics."

Talking to himself, Yang Xiaotao took out the lucky charm from the space.

"Whether it's theology or metaphysics, it's better to try than now."

After finishing speaking, he looked around, cleaned up the table, and then took out the seeds from the space.

In the space, there are seeds left over from this period of experimentation.

Every time there were a few catties, Yang Xiaotao only took out a handful and put it on the paper for recording information.

Soon, the table was filled with experimental corn seeds.

Yang Xiaotao turned his head, searched left and right for a while, finally found a chopstick, looked at it, and broke it off forcefully.

"The thick head is the father."

"The thin head is the female parent."

Picking up the lucky charm, Yang Xiaotao clasped his hands together, "The Taoist ancestor of the Sanqing is above, the Jade Emperor blesses me, the queen mother and empress appear, favored by sister Chang'e, all gods, Buddhas, generals, Bodhisattvas, Arhats..."

Yang Xiaotao counted all the 'gods' he could think of in his memory, and then bowed respectfully.

"Bless me, and find them smoothly."

After the words fell, Yang Xiaotao snorted and tore the lucky charm in his hand.

Then, nothing happened.

The lucky charm torn in two fell to the ground, but the four-leaf clover on it had disappeared.

In front of Yang Xiaotao, in another space, a four-leaf clover slowly bloomed, emitting ripples.

"There's no reaction either."

Yang Xiaotao thought it would be something earth-shattering, but this is it?
Taking a deep breath, Yang Xiaotao turned around, closed his eyes, and held half of the chopsticks in each hand.

"God bless."

"Amitabha"

"Boundless Heavenly Venerable"

"The fighters are all in the front line"

"Go!"

Two pieces of chopsticks were thrown from above the head.

patter
rattling

The sound fell until there was no sound.

And at this moment, the four-leaf clover in front of Yang Xiaotao dissipated little by little, and disappeared like smoke in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that there was no movement, Yang Xiaotao turned around and looked back.

"I rely on"

"It's really unreliable."

I saw that there was only one chopstick on the table, and it was still placed between two piles of corn.

As for the other one, it fell under the table.

"It's a loss, my 50 credits."

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward, muttering, preparing to pack up.

But when he lowered his head to pick up the chopsticks that fell on the ground, a corn lay quietly on the top of the chopsticks.

Yang Xiaotao was stunned.

Yang Xiaotao was stunned.

Some looked at the chopsticks under the table in disbelief.

The chopsticks are very straight, pointing straight at the corn kernels two centimeters away.

That posture seemed to be running, not as casual as if it fell to the ground.

It's like, God's will in the dark.

Yang Xiaotao stood up suddenly, staring at the half of the chopsticks on the table.

At this time, he realized that the chopsticks were not aimless, but placed precisely in the middle of two piles of corn seeds.

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward and glanced at the information under the corn.

"It's all mother."

"The upper one is the female parent, but the lower one is the male parent?"

"It won't be such a coincidence, it won't be such a coincidence."

Yang Xiaotao murmured to himself, "It's not a coincidence, it is, for sure."

The nagging Yang Xiaotao suddenly lifted his spirits and carefully picked up the corn kernel under the table.

"Xiaowei, let's go."

The voice fell, and Xiao Wei flew out from the table.

The sky is dark, the clouds are light, the moon is bright, and the stars are sparse.

Yang Xiaotao walked out of the door, went straight to the yard, looked at the grown corn, then pulled out one and threw it aside, then carefully buried the seeds in his hand into the soil.

Finally, I found a water ladle and watered it.

"Xiaowei, it's up to you."

Xiaowei jumped off her shoulders and landed on the soil, a green light from her hand penetrated into the soil.

It didn't end until there was movement in the soil and a black spot slowly drilled out of the ground.

Yang Xiaotao thought about it again, and went back to the house to find a seed from each of the two piles of female parents and bury it.

It was the same operation again, and when it was over, Xiao Wei flew back onto Yang Xiaotao's shoulder, with a bit of exhaustion in her voice.

Yang Xiaotao was not in a hurry, and took Xiaowei back to the house.

Gather up the seeds on the table, and store the last two piles of female plants separately.

At this time, I felt drowsiness rising, fell on the bed and fell asleep.

In the following week, Yang Xiaotao focused all his attention on the three corns. Under Xiaowei's constant replenishment of energy, the three corns grew rapidly, and then under Xiaowei's precise control, the pollen accurately fell into the inflorescences. , the fertilization process is very smooth, and then wait for the fruit to mature and get more parents.
