Chapter 5 "Biological Survival Experiments"
He Xiaotong and Zhou Ke stayed at Wang Heng's house until Sunday afternoon before leaving. At night, the two girls slept in another bedroom. They were all acquaintances, so there was no need to worry about the only man in the family/bizarrel.
The two girls left, and the family became completely quiet. Wang Heng was still on sick leave in the next week. He Xiaotong and Zhou Ke had to attend class and would only come on Friday or Saturday. Wang Heng also had time to explore the small world.
In the past few days, Wang Heng made a new discovery in the small world. In the small world, there is only the world tree more than one foot tall. Wang Heng discovered that on the world tree, the leaves of the world tree occasionally have a milky white liquid. When it accumulates to about a drop, it will slide from the leaves to the soil due to gravity.
Even if it is just a drop of water, it will be extraordinary to associate with the World Tree. Wang Heng feels that this milky white liquid must be a treasure and should collect it.
The world tree is still very small. Putting a few porcelain plates under the tree can occupy most of the area. The milky white liquid slides down from the leaves and drips on the porcelain plate. For this reason, Wang Heng bought more porcelain plates on Taobao.
In the blink of an eye, a new day came, and a few drops of milky white liquid were added to the porcelain plate under the World Tree, to be precise, only three drops.
Perhaps these three drops are the yield of the world tree for most of the day, and one or two drops may fall into the soil. Anyway, the yield of this milky white liquid world tree is very small, and Wang Heng cannot study it for the time being.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the six little mice, cages and rat food that were purchased online arrived, and the courier delivered them directly to the doorstep.
Wang Heng received the express delivery and moved it to the living room, then took out scissors to unpack the boxes one by one. The six little mice were packed in six plastic boxes that were not large and had breathable holes. There were also a lot of wood chips in the box, which was used to protect the little mice.
Looking through the plastic box, you can find that the six little mice were in a depressed spirit. For two days, the mice could only stay in a small space and would go back and forth because of the transfer of packages. If the express delivery time was longer, I am afraid that these six little mice would be not far from death.
Wang Heng was not in a hurry to release the six teenage mice, but prepared to assemble the six squirrel cages first.
The six squirrel cages are the same, with plastic plates on both sides on the upper and lower sides and wire mesh on the middle four sides. One of them has a cage door. The space of one squirrel cage is about six or seven cubic decimeters in size.
Without experience, Wang Heng took a lot of time to assemble the first squirrel cage, and then the five squirrel cages were assembled faster and faster. It took nearly half an hour to assemble the six squirrel cages.
After the squirrel cage was assembled, Wang Heng walked to the bedroom and kitchen respectively and found two pairs of gloves, one pair of black wire gloves worn when going out in winter, and the other pair of yellow rubber gloves worn when wiping things with a rag to clean up.
The main purpose of finding the gloves is to prevent being bitten by the mouse when taking the mouse. Although the artificially raised mouse is not likely to carry bacteria and viruses that are harmful to the human body, if it is really bitten by the mouse, Wang Heng will definitely have to go to the hospital for a few injections, so try to avoid any chance of happening.
Wang Heng looked at his left hand, then at his right hand, and finally decided to wear gloves only on his right hand.
First wear a wire glove, then put rubber gloves on the online gloves, and wear two layers of gloves on the right hand. The defense is already there, but the fingers become "stiff". You cannot remove the tape on the plastic box, so you can only leave it to your left hand who is not wearing gloves.
Remove the tape of a plastic box, hold the plastic box with his right hand in his gloves and put it into a squirrel cage. He operates with one hand and opens the plastic box with effort and pours the wood chips and the mouse into the squirrel cage together.
There are rat shits that come out with wood chips and mice!
A stinking smell came towards him, and Wang Heng almost vomited it out in disgust. He quickly turned his head aside, slapped his left hand, and fanned the stinky smell away.
The listless teenage mouse moved into the squirrel cage, as if he wanted to find a way to escape.
After closing the door of the squirrel cage, Wang Heng continued to put the other five squirrel cages in turn. After doing these, Wang Heng also added some water and rat food to each squirrel cage.
Seeing the figure of food, although the mice were still uneasy about the strange environment, under the influence of hunger, the mice walked towards the food. Under the observation of an unknown huge creature, they trembled and fed quickly, holding rat food about the size of someone's index finger and chewing.
When the little mouse was eating, Wang Heng cleaned up the living room, collected the express packaging scattered in the living room and put it in a garbage bag. After cleaning up the living room, Wang Heng sat on the sofa and rested for a while to surf the Internet, mainly giving the little mouse some time to recover.
About an hour later, Wang Heng put down his mobile phone and prepared to start the experiment. The name of the entire experiment is "Xuanhuang Small World Biological Survival Experiment". The main content of the experiment is to determine whether the Xuanhuang Small World can allow humans to survive through the guinea pig.
The first step in the experiment is to put a teenage mouse into the small world. This step is very important. If the teenage mouse enters the small world and dies soon, Wang Heng will need to spend more time finding out the reason for the teenage mouse's death, whether it is gravity, air, or bacterial viruses and other factors.
The six quilt mice were named No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Wang Heng added more rat food and water to the cage containing No. 1 quilt mice to at least meet the needs of the survival of No. 1 quilt mice in one week. Carefully lifted the quilt cage and Wang Heng sat back on the sofa.
"call"
He took a deep breath, and the next moment, the squirrel cage in his hand appeared on the ground of the small world. Wang Heng quickly closed his eyes and concentrated his energy, and realized that he entered the small world.
In the Xuanhuang small world, Wang Heng carefully observed the little mouse in the cage in front of him, and watched the little mouse move in the cage uneasy due to sudden changes in the environment, with a smile on his face.
The genius mouse does not die immediately when entering the small world. This is the best news for Wang Heng, which means that the environment of the small world can satisfy the survival of organisms in at least a short time. The gravity will not be too high, and there is air and oxygen. If the genius mouse is replaced with other organisms or even humans, it will not die immediately after entering the small world.
Thanks to the contributions of the guinea pigs, every year there are tens of millions of guinea pigs on the Blue Star dedicated to human science. It is the life of guinea pigs, allowing human science to develop rapidly. Now guinea pigs have made contributions to Wang Heng's exploration of the small world.
A minute later, the mouse is still alive.
Five minutes passed, and the mouse was still alive.
Ten minutes later, the mouse seemed to have become more energetic.
Half an hour passed, and Wang Heng confirmed that the first step of "Xuanhuang Small World Biological Survival Experiment" was successfully passed, and he will enter the second step of the experiment, observing and comparing.
Observe the survival of the No. 1 guinea pig living in the small world, and then compare it with the five guinea pigs outside. The second step of the experiment lasted until He Xiaotong came this week.
