"Not wine. What is that?" Chen Fan scratched his head, and still couldn't figure out anything, so he took the plastic bags that were made to wrap bowls, carefully tied the bowl set and was prepared to take it to land, then find a laboratory to test the components inside.

Circling the stone pagoda with the small bowl in hand, it was now just a simple shell. if he wanted to make this a good place to stay, it would be a big project. Chen Fan pulled back his reluctance to leave the sight, slowly walked down the stairs, and then went in the submarine.

After the electric eel burst through the cave into the dock, Chen Fan sat in the Maybach, thinking about where to identify the liquid in the bowl.

There were many regular biochemistry laboratories in Zhongyun City, like Zhongyun People's Hospital, Jisheng Pharmaceutical Factory, Agriculture and Forestry Research Institute, Zhongyun University, and so on, that have more advanced testing equipment, and will undertake some external object compositions for analysis and testing.

Hesitating for a while, Chen Fan decided to go to Zhongyun University to have it tested, although if the teachers saw him they would babble. But wasn't that better than an unfamiliar place? It wasn't a big deal!

Do it if you feel like doing it. Chen Fan looked at the time, which was 3:30 p.m. It would be just the right time to go.

Thirty minutes later, he was at Zhongyun University entrance!

The eight Mandarin characters of the school motto—To obtain knowledge and practice it—shone bright gold under the sun, still hanging on the building. The only thing that changed was the students in the university that came in and went batch by batch.

Two security guards squatting in the sun caught sight of the Maybach and, thinking it was a Big Boss, quickly rose from the ground to press the switch for the automatic door.

Chen Fan did not pretend and brought the bowl in. From the gate to the experimental building, there was a distance to walk. The students or teachers may recognize him. After two honks, the car drove into the gate at a speed of light. Along the way, there were students who were smoking cigarettes and skipping classes, giving envious looks when they saw the car. Some of them knew the brand and excitedly pointed to the Maybach and screamed, almost unable to keep from dashing forward and touching it.

At the white lab, Chen Fan looked around and noticed that no one was paying attention. He hurried into the building with the small bowl.

The experimental building of Zhongyun University, though not surprisingly, looked a bit old. But there were plenty of modern items in it. Chen Fan remembered the days when he had just started. The government had allocated 50 million to create a new marine deep water pressure chamber, which included importing a super-powered water grain pressure cabin specially from Germany.

The laboratory building of Zhongyun University also took some private cases to earn extra money, so Chen Fan filled out the report and paid the fee, and was taken to the composition analysis room on the second floor.

What Chen Fan had not expected was to find, squatting in the laboratory, one of the three famous people in Zhongyun University, Shen Zhengzhi.

Shen Zhengzhi, 63 years old, who had a doctorate in marine biology from the University of Pennsylvania, had three research institutes and two universities that wanted to recruit him. But he eventually returned to the Zhongyun City, which was a place he had worked for many years!

"What do you want to test, boy?" Professor Shen in his white coat smiled and stared at the white bowl in Chen Fan's hands. People who came here for testing most commonly tested unidentified objects that were plucked from the sea, to see if they were priceless treasure. Today, unexpectedly, came someone who was holding a white bowl in a plastic bag. It made him very curious. Was the bowl any kind of antique?

"Professor Shen, I want to check the composition of the liquid in the bowl." Chen Fan carefully placed the bowl in front of the man with white hair.

Professor Shen who had just unwrapped the plastic bag was immediately attracted by the refreshing smell, and was intoxicated by it for a long time before he came back to his senses.

"Is it wine?" Professor Shen murmured a few words to himself and then shook his head. "You stay here for a while, young man. The lab is free today. I'll do a composition analysis for you."

"Thank you, Professor Shen!" Chen Fan, with a smile and a nod. He had been lucky to meet him to do the experiment. He was much better than the teachers whose hair had not turned white.

When Professor Shen walked into the thick white door, Chen Fan took out his cell phone and read a novel.

"Professor Shen, our seven-class paper on algae has... eh?" Just then, a beautiful girl bringing a stack of documents into the room, saw a young man sitting on the seat. She looked at him curiously for five seconds and said in a surprised manner, "You... aren't you… the..."

"The name is Chen Fan!" Chen Fan raised his head and immediately recognized the approximately 1.6-meter-tall, slender-figured girl with an oval face. It was Zhou Qi, who had once been Chen Fan's tutor when he was in school. Since it had been so long, she had forgotten his name. However, Chen Fan had a deep impression of her. She was definitely something different. Chen Fan once saw her put a frog into someone else's desk, and then she asked Chen Fan not to tell anyone she did it.

"Yes, Chen Fan, why have you absent from class for a semester?" Zhou Qi put down the documents and looked at him with a curious expression. She had heard her classmate say that they saw him on the street driving a BMW. Not only that, but that he had an extremely pretty fairy-looking lady in the passenger seat.

"Ha, I recently went for a trip overseas and just came back? I'll be back tomorrow, tomorrow!" Chen Fan lied.

"Then why are you sitting here?" Zhou Qi did not care about Chen Fan's lies. Instead she sat opposite, placed her hands on her cheeks, and stared at Chen Fan with two eyes filled with curiosity.

"I came to see Professor Shen, but he's not around!" Chen Fan felt a little anxious being looked at by Zhou Qi in this manner, so he got up quickly and walked to the door saying "Since he is not in, I'll leave first. I'll go to class tomorrow."

"Let's get together!" Zhou Qi grinned and caught up from behind, tapping his shoulder. He quivered and said, "Didn't know that you had such a fascinating life! The students in the class said they saw you driving a BMW with a beautiful girl!"

"That... That's my sister!" Chen Fan just wanted to quickly get rid of her. His eyes went around and, suddenly thought of a good idea. "Ouch! Oh, I've got a stomach ache. I need to go to the bathroom." With that, he hurried to the bathroom.

After five minutes, Chen Fan popped out his head, found that the corridor was empty, and then gave a big sigh of relief. He then continued to read his novel in the room. When he came to school, he was afraid of being recognized, and he was still found out even though he had tried to lay low.

He would never go back to school. To sit at home was better than to sit in the classroom and listen to a drowsy lecture. Of course, it was because he didn't understand anything except Mandarin.

When the content of the novel was describing the protagonist playing ambiguously with the beauty, Chen Fan was reading with full of interest until someone lightly touched him from the back. Only then did he turn his head suddenly.

"Young man, can you tell me where the liquid came from?" Professor Shen confusedly handed the liquid in the bowl to him. "I used element detector tests. It contains 43 kinds of elements. In total there were 34 known elements, the other nine were unknown elements. If you want to know the components of the nine unknown elements, you have to use other devices to detect the spectral lines within the element and the linear range to see what its usage is."

"This is something I got from an ancient bottle, so I want to check it and see what it was. Professor Shen, what are the elements in it?" Chen Fan lied a little.

"The elements were adenosine invertase, kaempferol, the aldehyde group, proline hydrogen, oxygen, sodium, potassium, and so on. These are nouns that you won't understand even if I tell you."

Professor Shen handed him a stack of newly printed identification and sat down in a chair. "I'll tell you about the elements that have been identified. First of all, the elements which made this are very complex. I still can't figure out the composition of the liquid concrete effect, but there are also some elements that only belong to ginseng, very beneficial to human body. In other words, the liquid here, part of it was obtained from water soaked in ginseng. As for the other elements, although I know what they do, it doesn't make sense to put them together. But in these known elements, no harmful substances were found."

Professor Shen touched his chin, and after a short hesitation, said, "There are two kinds of unknown elements we know so far, but haven't unlocked the mysteries of. The first is called sodium erupted milling, and the second one is peptide ammonia acyl, and these two kinds of unknown elements are found in only a case of their source. It's called the 'Taisui'. I think you have seen the news of finding a Taisui, which is recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica and the mountain and sea classics, also known as Rouzhi. There is a saying that eating it over a long period could make your body feel light and immortal. I have a friend who, when he was identifying a Taisui for someone, he secretly buckled the size of a fingernail and had no idea that years had passed, and he had raised it to the size of a walnut. However, the effect cannot make you live longer. There was a resident who found this and planted it in the water. Then he ate a little bit every day. The effect was better than wild ginseng, but obviously it did not cause immortality."

"It's like an animal that can breathe, grow, and regenerate, but it doesn't have any organs. And is not a plant or fungus either. It usually grows in water or soil. According to the different living environment, its morphology varies. From the present examples, none of them are of the same shape. Some were like meat, and some were like jelly. The color in the general soil is heavy, and the color in the water is light. The better the quality of water, the more the color is like jade."

"So this liquid, it's very likely that the ancient people used a variety of precious medicinal herbs to feed the Taisui."

F**k... The expression on Chen Fan's face was completely divided into a multiplex, and even the IQ of two hundred could not solve it.

If Professor Shen is right, then on the third floor of the stone tower, lived a big Taisui? Chen Fan knew a little about Taisui. The emperors in ancient times used to send people to look for it to stay immortal.

It is very likely that the woman depicted on the stone tower, in order to pursue long life, especially used various precious medicinal materials to raise a Taisui inside.

From the seal of the rosin wall, this one is probably still alive in it. After all, if you are too old to eat a piece of a piece and live forever, how can you tell that it can live forever?

"Young man, young man!" Professor Shen gave Chen Fan a gentle push and pulled him back from his imagination. "Have you looked at that bottle carefully? According to logic, it should have a Taisui in it."

"No, the bottle is very small, just as big as a mineral water bottle. And then there was only the liquid in the bottle, and I poured it all out." Chen Fan shook his head and pretended an unfortunate look.

"Whoever had the bottle owns a Taisui." Professor Shen smiled. "Young man, don't drink the bowl of liquid. I haven't completely analyzed certain ingredients in it, and if something happens to you, the hospital won't even be able to help!"

"Uh-huh!" Chen Fan repeatedly agreed that he wouldn't do that kind of thing.

After thanking Professor Shen, Chen Fan thought for a long time in the car and decided to go to the flower and bird market to buy a dog. Then he'd feed him a little to see if the liquid had any effect. Then he would try to find a way to get the Taisui out of the stone tower and see what it looked like.

Driving to the flower and bird market, Chen Fan locked his sight in a pet shop selling Tibetan Mastiffs.

The Tibetan Mastiff has been touted as a legend, saying it can compete with three hungry wolves at the same time and win. It's supposed to be so strong, a little poison would not harm it.

The Tibetan Mastiffs, which were sold in the store, were all still puppies. After a few rounds, Chen Fan found a small white Tibetan Mastiff. But it had the highest price, 30,000 RMB. Of course, it is not a pure Mastiff. There were only 13 pure Mastiffs in China, and now the Mastiffs have fewer genes than other dogs.

After bargaining for some time, the boss insisted on selling it for 28.000 RMB. Chen Fan was to lazy to bargain anymore, paid, and left. The dog was only 20 days old, but the body weight was already amazing, and Chen Fan found the cage was heavy when he carried it.

After driving to buy some other things, Chen Fan came back to the house and took the Mastiff out of the cage. The 20-day-old little guy had not opened his eyes. When he felt that someone was holding him, he immediately howled.

He put the liquid in the bowl into the bottle, then hold the dog's head down and pushed the feeding bottle in its mouth.

The white mastiff's head was shaking and he refused to drink it.

"Little guy, trying to resist against someone stronger than you?" Chen Fan smiled insidiously. He forced its mouth open with his right hand and squeeze the liquid inside the bottle into its mouth.
