Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 347 Xu Yue: They want to use me as a guinea pig?

How could one person have such great strength?
Compared to those weightlifting champions...
Well, there's absolutely no comparison.

That cauldron is so big that even a 20-ton crane can't lift it!

How did this person do that?
The scientists who came looked at Xu Yue with shining eyes.

Xu Yue felt a chill run down his spine from that gaze.

Are these guys thinking of putting themselves on the testing ground?

A flash of shock crossed their eyes, followed by curiosity and covetousness.

These people are trying to take advantage of me!

Xu Yue was speechless.

After putting down the large cauldron, Xu Yue was about to go to the clinic with Yan Tian when Jing Guohua stopped him.

“This is Academician Ma Bohan, a life science expert,” Jing Guohua said. “He is also one of the project leaders.”

If one of the people in charge is responsible, then are there other people in charge?

But thinking about it, it's not surprising.

After all, there's obviously not much to study about a single large cauldron, especially since it's a subject of study for life science experts.

This project mainly studies whether formations that increase vitality can be converted into increasing lifespan.

Without the corresponding formation, the cauldron is just a cauldron.

It was just a slightly unusual large cauldron.

"This is Xu Yue, a contemporary successor of the rural family tradition, and also the principal of this academy."

Jing Guohua then introduced Xu Yue to Na Ma Bohan.

"Hello there!"

"Hello there!"

Xu Yue looked at Ma Bohan, shook hands with him, and greeted him.

Ma Bohan is different from Liu Guoxing and Meng Xingyan.

Different temperaments lead to different appearances.

Academician Meng has white hair, and Liu Guoxing has gray hair.

And what about Ma Bohan?
My hair is thinning; it feels like the few strands I have left are old and frail.

Perhaps even a gust of wind could blow it all away.

"Academician Ma, you go ahead with your work," Xu Yue said. "I have some things to attend to, I'll come over later."

Xu Yue felt a chill run down his spine under Ma Bohan's gaze.

Ma Bohan's eyes had a look that resembled that of a big bad wolf looking at a little lamb.

They have ill intentions.

Ma Bohan wanted to say something more, but Xu Yue quickly walked away.

"Director Jing, are all cultivators this strong?" Ma Bohan asked. "Or have you transcended the realm of ordinary people? Have your physical attributes surpassed those of ordinary people, such as whether your genes are more perfect than average?"

“Academician Ma, Xu Yue was able to lift that cauldron not because he was strong, but because it was a kind of agricultural implement that he could control,” Jing Guohua said. “This is Xu Yue’s territory, so don’t try anything with him. And don’t try anything with me either.”

After Jing Guohua finished speaking, he left.

His main responsibility was to escort the large cauldron.

While I'm at it, I'll also pick up the protective jade amulet.

He then caught up with Xu Yue.

Xu Yue then led Yan Tian and the others to the clinic.

Why was Xu Yue chosen to step in?
The main reason is that Yan Tian and Xu Chengyang didn't have much contact.

We're not familiar with each other at all.

Jing Guohua was no exception.

It's better to ask Xu Yue about this than to go directly to Xu Chengyang.

After learning the purpose of the visit, Xu Chengyang did not hesitate. He put down his research, packed up, and left with Yan Tian.

Xu Yue and Jing Guohua prepared to go back.

Just as I stepped out, I saw Xie Qingqing rush out of the consultation room and then dry heave in the corner.

"What's wrong with you?"

Xu Yue couldn't help but ask.

He had some doubts.

"My morning sickness is quite severe," Xie Qingqing said with a smile. "It's another moment when I envy Ruoxi."

"congratulations."

Xu Yue said with a smile.

Zhang Ruoxi was pregnant with twins, but she didn't experience much pregnancy symptoms, especially morning sickness, which Xu Yue barely noticed.

"Thank you!"

Xie Qingqing smiled and said something.

Xu Yue didn't have any sense of superiority as someone who had been there before, and even offered a couple of words of advice.

Xie Qingqing is a doctor, why would she need to give her any more instructions?
"The Dragon-Tiger Vitality Cauldron needs to be studied in conjunction with the formation. Besides Academician Ma, who else is in charge of this?"

Xu Yue handed the tea to Jing Guohua and asked a question.

What's so interesting about studying a ding (a type of ancient Chinese cooking vessel)?

Besides, even if it has research value, it wouldn't be life science experts who would study it; materials experts would be the ones to do it.

"You!"

Jing Guohua smiled, said something, and then picked up his teacup and took a sip.

And what about Xu Yue?

He just rolled his eyes.

He might participate, or even be one of the organizers, but he's definitely not the only one.

“Ye Chenguang and the others will be coming,” Jing Guohua said. “They might replicate the formation of that ancient tomb. The laboratory we have now is probably just temporary.”

"Where will the new laboratory be built?" Xu Yue asked. "It won't be at the Agricultural Technology College, will it?"

"do you agree?"

Jing Guohua didn't answer, but instead asked a question.

“I have already set up a grand formation for the academy. If I were to replicate the ancient tomb's grand formation, it would likely conflict with the academy's formation,” Xu Yue said, shaking his head. “Besides, although I don’t understand astrology and feng shui, the location selection should also be related to them.”

“Ye Chenguang will be here in a few days,” Jing Guohua said. “If we can find a place near the academy, we will build it there, which will make security easier.”

These studies will naturally be conducted with tight security.

If research results are indeed found, it will be absolutely astonishing.

"Did Academician Ma and his team study cultivators?" Xu Yue asked. "The way he looked at me, it was like he wanted to slice me into pieces."

“Our country is still quite humane in this regard,” Jing Guohua said. “There are many cultivators in our country, and many of them are short of money. There is no shortage of people willing to sell their blood to cooperate with research.”

Xu Yue was silent.

Does that mean it's voluntary in China, but forced abroad?
"Junichiro Yamamoto has been buried?"

Xu Yue suddenly asked about the fourth-realm expert he had killed.

Those four realms are dead, but what about the three living realms?

"We must uphold humanitarianism."

Jing Guohua seemed to be giving an irrelevant answer.

Buried?

So the remaining people weren't used for research, but were instead imprisoned?
That's way too humanitarian!
Are they even considered human?

Xu Yue suddenly thought of something and asked a question.

He looked at Jing Guohua, seemingly trying to find the answer he was looking for in his reaction.

Jing Guohua didn't say anything, he just smiled.

Xu Yue smiled when he saw this.

Everything is unspoken.

Xu Yue didn't care whether he guessed correctly or not, but he was happy to guess that way.

"Security at the academy will probably need to be strengthened," Jing Guohua said. "Whether it's the Academy of Agricultural Sciences or other research projects, they are all extremely important."

"Are you sending more people?"

Xu Yue asked calmly.

The increased security at the academy is normal and was within Xu Yue's expectations.

“No need for that,” Jing Guohua said. “However, most of Li Liang and Zhang Ruoyu’s men will have to be transferred over.”

Xu Yue nodded.

As for the security issues in Taoyuan Village and the folk customs area after they leave, Xu Yue's recruited people can handle it themselves.

Xu Jianghe and Li Zhuting, two experts at the third realm, surely they can handle this. As for Guo En, he's currently in charge of security at the desert farm.

The people Xu Yue recruited before have now been trained.

Replacing Li Liang and his group is naturally no problem.

If there is a shortage of manpower, we can just hire more people.

Having money but still can't find people?
Having resources doesn't mean we can't cultivate talent?

Therefore, Xu Yue had no objection to Li Liang and Zhang Ruoyu being transferred there.

"I thought you were going to send another team each," Xu Yue said with a smile.

Li Liang's team belonged to the Special Administration Bureau.

Zhang Ruoyu's team, on the other hand, belonged to the military.

The Special Administration is under the military, but there are clearly significant differences between them.

"You can have this."

Jing Guohua said with a smile.

Now, Xu Yue clearly no longer needs the Special Administration Bureau and the military to ensure his safety or intimidate people in the martial arts world.

He himself is extremely intimidating.

However, if Xu Yue needs it, they naturally wouldn't mind.

Who wouldn't want to use Xu Yue's resources to cultivate top talents?
Look at the progress Li Liang and his team have made.

Li Liang is almost at the third realm, while many others have entered the second realm.

This speed would have been unimaginable in the past.

With Li Liang's potential, it's hard to say whether he'll even reach the threshold of the third realm in his lifetime, let alone reach it so quickly.

For those who cultivate themselves, the importance of wealth, companions, methods, location, and tools has become increasingly apparent.

"You think you can get something for nothing?" Xu Yue said. "With such a large annual budget, you're still short of money for food?"

"Don't you even consider how high the food costs are?" Jing Guohua said. "Who can afford it?"

"I can offer you a discounted price," Xu Yue said.

He doesn't lack the money, but he can't let them develop that habit.

Previously, Xu Yue used the power of the Special Administration Bureau to deter petty criminals.

Then they weren't getting something for free.

Although there are quite a few people.

Now that it's no longer needed, then it is.

Jing Guohua obviously understood, so he didn't suggest sending anyone else.

As for Li Liang and Zhang Ruoyu's two teams, they are now in charge of security at the academy, so they certainly aren't just taking advantage of the situation.

It's not like the two teams can't be switched.

Whether for the military or the Special Administration, it doesn't actually have much impact on training top-notch personnel.

At most, those people will be responsible for security at the academy in addition to training.

After drinking tea and chatting for a while, Jing Guohua left with the jade talisman he had made.

Xu Yue went upstairs, put away the vitality array talismans he had used for experiments, and prepared to go to the academy again.

"What are you doing?"

Zhang Ruoxi looked at Xu Yue in confusion.

"The large cauldron has arrived, along with quite a few life science experts," Xu Yue said. "They looked at me like I was a lab rat when they saw me carrying the cauldron inside. I brought these things over to give them something to do, otherwise they'd start eyeing me."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruoxi's lips twitched.

White mice?
However, she had no doubts.

Scientists have an insatiable thirst for knowledge.

Seeing Xu Yue display such great power, carrying such a heavy cauldron, it would be strange if they didn't understand what was going on.

“Just take these insects for the experiments with you,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “They are not only more professional, but also have more complete equipment.”

Xu Yue and his team conducted relevant experiments, but they relied entirely on visual observation and mental perception to determine any changes in the insects.

That is obviously not as accurate and detailed as instruments.

"it is good!"

Xu Yue nodded, and then brought along the "guinea pigs" used for the experiment.

I'll have lunch at the college.

Xu Yue left after saying just one sentence.

Zhang Ruoxi shook her head, then picked up the book and started reading again.

When Xu Yue saw Ma Bohan again, he was setting up the laboratory.

This time, they brought quite a lot of equipment with them.

"Principal Xu!"

Upon seeing Xu Yue, Ma Bohan immediately rushed to greet him.

That enthusiasm gave Xu Yue an urge to get away from it today.

"Academician Ma," Xu Yue said with a smile, "where do you think we should put these things?"

"This is?"

Ma Bohan looked at the thing in Xu Yue's hand with some confusion.

"You should know that your project is related to formations?" Xu Yue said when Ma Bohan nodded. "Besides astrology and feng shui, it is also related to formations that increase vitality in farmers."

Ma Bohan nodded again.

This is also why he has such a strong interest in this project.

This is a project that combines science and metaphysics.

He was just one of the people in charge.

Responsible for scientific research.

He also knew that they were just making preparations, and the person in charge of metaphysics would arrive soon.

We will then choose a new location, replicate the ancient tomb's formation, and conduct further research.

He also knew that Xu Yue was one of the metaphysical leaders.

“I don’t understand astrological and feng shui formations,” Xu Yue continued. “However, I can set up formations to increase vitality in farmers. So I set up a few before and did some experiments with these things, but I didn’t get any results, or rather, I didn’t see any results.”

reward?

You don't even have any instruments, how can you test it, how can you know if you've gained anything?
Is it also done using metaphysical methods?

There might be some gains, but the mystical methods failed to detect them.

Is he planning to use it to check his own equipment?

What a good thing!

Ma Bohan had an extremely strong interest in the "guinea pigs" in Xu Yue's hands.

This also includes the farmer's formation that Xu Yue mentioned, which increases vitality.

“I’m planning to put those formations and the experimental materials here in the lab,” Xu Yue said. “Where do you think would be a suitable place, Academician Ma?”

"The formation can move?" Ma Bohan was somewhat surprised.

He wasn't unaware of the relevant information, after all, this project was related to it.

The ancients actually wanted to use formations to revive themselves.

Although it ultimately failed, it was still quite shocking.

The person who had been dead for countless years not only looked like someone who had just died, but also began to speak.

When Ma Bohan first saw that video, he thought it was a scene from a movie.

The result told him it was an archaeological recording video.

If it weren't for the government's guarantee, he would have slapped the other person in the face.

That was absolutely a miracle of life.

“I’ve set up the array with runes, so it can naturally be moved,” Xu Yue said. “However, once I’ve set it up, you mustn’t move the jade talisman.”

Ma Bohan nodded and then pointed out the location to Xu Yue.

Xu Yue then rearranged the array symbols and put the "guinea pigs" back into the array.

"Academician Ma, it's lunchtime. Let me take you to the cafeteria first."

Xu Yue smiled and looked at Ma Bohan.

As for accommodation, someone had already taken them there.

The college offers not only student dormitories but also many faculty and staff dormitories.

Ma Bohan and his colleagues naturally stayed in the faculty and staff dormitory.
