Chapter 1118: Want to Take Medicine From Kelp? Can We Eat Kelp Directly?
"What? 120 of them?!"
Elder Fahim, Idian and Aneri Linge asked in unison. 120 adult rabbits are not something you can just catch. The forest guards have to run around in the forest and work for several days to catch them:
"Do you know how hard it is to catch so many rabbits?"
Anairi's voice was a little trembling. The elder is old, and Idian has old injuries that need to be recuperated. Whatever needs Gretel has, it is mainly her business!
It was she who led the nearby forest guards to dig caves, set traps, search nearby woods and grasslands, or communicate with the monsters, asking them to capture alive and healthy ones and send them over!
"Didn't you catch a lot last time?"
Before Gretel could answer, Cerira already spoke. The beautiful face with the same features as an elf had a blank look on her face, completely unable to grasp what made Lin Ge crazy:
"I caught it so easily last time. Wouldn't it be nice to catch it again this time?"
"Well, this is different from last time! Last time you could call them directly, but not this time!"
Aneri Linge took Serila to one side and muttered, spreading common sense among those who serve nature. Of the wild beasts and monsters captured last time, if you capture one, treat one; if you cure one, release the other. Although my hands occasionally slip...
Well, it’s not intentional to have slippery hands. It’s for the good of the beasts and monsters. The forest guards can use their natural affinity to communicate, persuade, and seduce.
However, this time using rabbits to test the drug would obviously harm their lives and health. In this case, you cannot use your natural affinity ability to communicate, which is tantamount to deception and murder!
Imagine the forest guards saying to the rabbits: "Come with me, I will take you to eat and drink well..." After taking them away, they eat and drink, then pick them up and give them medicine, perform an operation, and put them in a polluted and poisonous place. environment?
The whole nature will come back! They will all turn their backs on them and no longer respond to any of their calls!
"We forest guards, even if we hunt food and furs for ourselves, we can only use our own keen eyes and ears, and our own experience and skills to hunt! Otherwise, they will naturally ignore us!"
"That's it..." Cerela lowered her face and muttered in a low voice:
"If you don't cheat, just don't cheat. At most, you have to work harder... Sister Lin Ge, do you want me to help you catch rabbits?"
"...You can rest!"
You are also helping to catch rabbits. With your size, it is more efficient to catch large beasts or ferocious beasts. When playing with a small and cunning guy like a rabbit, don't let out a breath of dragon's breath when you get excited and freeze the whole forest!
Or simply transform back into dragon form, the rabbit missed, and the surrounding trees were knocked down!
On the other side, Grete was still explaining to Elder Fahim and the others the necessity of 120 rabbits:
"Three elf medicines, plus my medicine, plus a batch of rabbits that don't take any medicine as a control group. The weaker polluted environment, the stronger polluted environment, each batch of 12 rabbits, can no longer Anything less…”
Alas, it would be nice to have a Geiger counter. The radiation dose is 100-500 millisieverts, and the radiation dose is 1000-2000 millisieverts. These two ranges, at least have one set each!
The current method of estimating radiation intensity by looking at bright light and counting cloud chamber trajectories one by one is not reliable after all...
"Then you mean, if you can't try out 120, you have to ask for more?"
Elder Fahim frowned:
"Grete, if you can use less rabbits, it's better to use less. What you want are adult rabbits. 120 adult rabbits means at least 60 litters of little rabbits, which means that within half a year, this woodland will There won’t be any little rabbits…”
I understand, ecological balance! Grete nodded vigorously:
"Elder, I know that I will try to save as much as possible. But this number has been reduced to the lowest. In this way, after the first batch of comparative experiments, if I want to test the suitable dosage of my medicine, I will not use the elf medicine for comparison, and can save Lots of rabbits?”
"Then you go catch it yourself?"
Seeing Gretel's behavior of asking for hundreds of rabbits whenever his upper lip touches his lower lip, Idian couldn't help but want to embarrass him. However, Gretel sighed, and his whole face wrinkled together:
"I can't catch it... When I catch it myself, if I catch 120 rabbits, the ones in front of me will all die of old age..."
"puff……"
"puff!"
Serila and Aneri Linge laughed together. Gretel's performance is not over yet:
"Well, if there really weren't so many rabbits in the rainforest, I would have to wear lead armor and go into the polluted area to shovel dirt. Then, I went back to the Eagle Country to do experiments... I have a laboratory there, and I want rabbits and stuff like that. If you want a hundred, there are only a hundred; if you want a thousand, there are only a thousand..."
Is this a threat?
This is obviously a threat!
Idian's eyes twitched. Not to mention that he couldn't look after a level 11 cub, oh, in terms of physical fitness, he was probably not as good as half the teenagers on Everjum Island, carrying 500 pounds of lead armor to shovel dirt in a polluted area. Even if he can stand by and watch, can he be let go?
If you want a hundred, you will only have a hundred; if you want a thousand, you will only have a thousand. Are you trying to say that you dare to torture a thousand rabbits to death without us watching?
"Okay! I'll catch it for you!" He pressed his knee and stood up suddenly. Grete raised a big smile, closed her palms towards him, and bowed vigorously:
"Please! Please! 120 rabbits, all adult and healthy rabbits, preferably of the same weight!"
Idian snorted and jumped out. Aneri Linge quickly went to create rabbit cages and rabbit grass, preparing to house these rabbits. As for Gretel...
"What are you doing?"
Gretel, Gretel dug up a large piece of land, turned fossils into mud, and turned mud into stone. Throw in a lot of dried kelp and light a fire...
Potassium iodide is produced from kelp!
"I make medicine! The medicine I'm talking about is extracted from kelp and seaweed on the beach!"
"So why don't you just let the rabbit eat the kelp?"
Aneri Linge frowned, held back a sneeze, and walked upwind. This is already the second fire. As for the first fire, Gretel swept up the ashes, dissolved them in water, and set up a magic circle to extract...
Alas, the magic circle invented by Mr. Norwood can extract various small amounts of drugs, and the effect is outstanding. Fortunately, in order to prepare silver iodide, he had also tinkered with some potassium iodide before, so he had some stocks on hand.
Otherwise, we would have to fiddle with the iodine element from scratch, which would be a big trouble...
Aneri Linge watched for a while and couldn't help but be curious:
"If you are just worried that the kelp is too salty, just wash it. If you are worried that the rabbit will not eat it, we can help you. If you add so many chemicals and then throw them all away, it will do great damage to nature!"
"And people can eat it! I remember that this kind of kelp is used to stew broth. It is very delicious! As for me, it is no problem to eat a pound in one sitting. It really needs to be used as medicine. Like Iudian, ten There’s no problem with the pounds!”
"I'm back!"
With a swipe sound, Idian had already rushed back carrying a large rattan box. In the rattan box, there were screams and fighting sounds, and at least a dozen rabbits could be seen faintly.
He ran over and stood next to Gretel, took a look at the thing he was tinkering with, and felt happy:
"Little Gretel, are you trying to make me eat kelp?"
"It's possible that he ate kelp ash." Grete pointed to the burning stone pit with a straight face:
"I have calculated that if you had to eat only kelp to get the required amount of medicine to fight pollution, you would probably need to eat 20 pounds of kelp a day. How many days you have been in a polluted area will mean how many days you have to eat kelp."
"That's still..." Idian trembled. Eating 20 pounds of venison in one sitting is not a problem for him. Warrior, who doesn't have an iron stomach? However, eating kelp ash is a bit boring:
"By the way, if you don't want to eat this thing, is there any use in wrapping it outside? Since it helps to resist pollution, can you wrap the kelp around the outside of the armor to resist it, right?"
"..."
Gretel's hand slipped and he almost adjusted the magic circle to the wrong position. Wrap kelp around the armor? Slippery and enjoyable?
What an otherworldly idea this is! What do you think radiation is, the arrows shot out, can a wrap of kelp help you block it?
The iodine in those kelp is going into your thyroid gland to fill it! I'm not here to protect you from disaster!
"Are you sure?" He looked at the other party sideways:
"I'm not even talking about whether it's useful or not. Can you bear this look?"
"Then let's eat kelp ash..." Idian imagined that his whole body was covered with kelp, looking like a plant mummy, and he couldn't help but feel discouraged:
"Hey, boy, can you make the kelp ash more delicious? For example, add some honey and mix it into honey balls that can be swallowed in one go?"
"I won't let you eat kelp ash even if you want to."
Grete has already collected the ingredients in the magic circle, tinkering, tinkering, and tinkering to create a liquid. Carefully drop it into a test tube, watch the solution in the test tube turn blue, and let out a sigh of relief:
"I have calculated that the potassium content in kelp is 200 times the content of the medicinal ingredient I want."
100 grams of fresh kelp contains 113 micrograms of iodine and 246 milligrams of potassium. The intake of potassium iodide tablets for radiation protection is about 100 mg/day. If you rely on eating kelp...
"To take 100 milligrams of the medicinal ingredient, it's almost like taking it all in one go...half a pound of potassium, right?"
Imagine drinking a solution containing 250 grams of potassium chloride in one breath... He doesn't know whether this person will die or not, but if he consumes so much potassium ions, he will definitely suffer from hyperkalemia, cardiac arrest, etc. Waving to people.
This is not a question of whether you will be exhausted to death if you finish ten or twenty pounds of kelp!
Well, in addition to potassium iodide, kelp also contains higher amounts of sodium iodide. He needs to adjust the magic circle, collect, extract, and react again, trying not to waste the iodine elements inside.
After all, the kelp in his space equipment is for his occasional cravings, not for drug experiments!
