Scholars in the courtyard

Yang Xiaotao ignored Lou Xiao'e's actions.

This time, Xu Damao's reputation finally spread.

I guess I don’t dare to go out these days.

Yang Xiaotao didn't think it was too much. For a bad guy like Xu Damao, to save him some face would be to avoid being cruel in the future.

Yang Xiaotao tried several times to destroy the beasts in the yard.

But he didn't dare after all.

Firstly, there is no chance. Secondly, the criminal police in this era are not vegetarians. Even if there are no cameras in the streets and alleys, the whole nation is not a soldier. Those old ladies with little feet are no worse than the cameras.

No, the next day Officer Li from the sub-district office led people to the courtyard.

After some questioning and understanding the facts, they called Shazhu, Xu Damao's family and Yang Xiaotao into the yard.

First, he criticized Shazhu for beating people in education, and then criticized Yang Xiaotao's behavior. This kind of thing that harms the socialist style is not encouraged, and it can easily corrupt the social atmosphere.

Finally, Xu Damao was punished by not having to clean the streets for a month.

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

Before leaving, I gave some instructions to the uncles.

All in all, this was the only way the street office knew about this matter, but for Xu Damao, it was already considered embarrassing.

Lou Xiao'e was even more worried about the situation of the Lou family because of this matter, and she looked closely at Xu Damao.

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

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

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

Therefore, Yang Xiaotao did not intend to let Xiaowei take action until the critical moment.

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

Even finding a woman has been put aside by him, what else can disturb him.

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

With the help of Xiaowei, the previous experiments were shortened, and the precise operation also increased the success rate of the experiments.

But experiments are experiments.

Starting from scratch often requires a long and painful process.

Just like now, Yang Xiaotao looked at the records in his notebook. Each one was written very well, but the result was always an unexpected failure.

"Why."

"What's wrong?"

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

It has been more than a month, and I have experienced nothing but failure.

He couldn't figure it out. It was obviously successful at the beginning. All the experimental processes were carried out according to the records in the notes. It stands to reason that the final result would be the ideal type of Zongjia corn.

But the experiment still failed in the end.

The most important thing is that Yang Xiaotao can't find the reason for the failure.

In other words, the entire experiment was wrong from the moment it was designed.

But these theoretical basis are all inherited from Mendel, so it cannot be said that Mendel also did something wrong?

If so, isn't Mendel's law of inheritance also wrong?

Yang Xiaotao shook his head and put his arms on his forehead.

Xiaowei could feel her master's anxiety, but she had tried her best, but still couldn't meet the master's requirements.

At this time, seeing Yang Xiaotao in distress, Xiaowei flew to the window and half of her body was hidden in the wooden board.

Outside, a buzzing mosquito was fluttering its wings and flying into the house. The next second, it was penetrated by the wooden thorn on the door frame and fell to the ground.

Become the object of Xiaowei's venting.

Further away, a mosquito circled around the door. Seeing what happened to the old man, it turned around and flew to the other side.

"There must be something wrong somewhere."

Yang Xiaotao suddenly opened his eyes, still unwilling to accept it.

The experiment has come to this point, how can we just give up?

He was unwilling to give in.

Get up, turn on the light, pick up paper and pen again and start calculating.

The initial experimental design, the selection of experiences, and the final results are sorted out and put aside.

Then let Xiaowei choose the grain types.

The first time, we selected the parts with the most energy, such as roots and corn kernels, but the experiment failed.

The second time, I selected the pollen with the most energy, but failed.

The third time, I selected a female parent with a high stem and leaf energy, but failed.

For the fourth time, the male and female parents were self-crossed, and after the results were obtained, they were cultivated again, hoping to find homozygotes. As a result, all the corn that grows is the same. This shows that the dominant gene in the father is always expressed.

Through Xiaowei's judgment of energy, the three strongest, strongest and weakest ones were selected, and after being planted separately, the strongest ones were used again for breeding.

The result is failure.

The fifth time, the weakest breeding was selected, and the result was failure.

The sixth time, I chose the intermediate strain for breeding, but it still failed.

The seventh time, we turned to maternal parent research.

…

For the twenty-first time, the weakest of the female parent was crossed with three strong, medium and weak strains of the male parent. As a result, all failed.

Bada

Yang Xiaotao threw the pen aside and looked at the compiled information, his eyes burning, trying to find any flaws in it.

The night passed little by little, and the moon flickered in and out of the clouds. Yang Xiaotao felt his eyes were sore and his mind was in chaos.

No clue!

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

"Too damn, unscientific, unscientific."

Yang Xiaotao got up, walked to the window, and took out a box of cigarettes.

Even though he didn't usually smoke, he felt upset at the moment.

After smoking a cigarette, my throat became even drier.

Gudong Gudong

After drinking a teacup of water, he calmed down again.

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

"Nothing is wrong, nothing is wrong."

"Then, what's the mistake?"

Yang Xiaotao touched his chin. The stubble pricked his hand, but it had a special rhythm.

"Or was it wrong from the beginning?"

Suddenly, Yang Xiaotao returned to his original choice again.

"No, it has been verified experimentally. Even if other methods are used, the result will still be failure."

Soon, it was self-denial again.

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

boom

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

On the side, Xiao Wei hid in the wood when she saw it, and then looked at the owner carefully. It was not until a long time ago that she flew to the table and started repairing the wood pit.

Yang Xiaotao was lost in thought for a while, and then he saw Xiaowei repairing the table.

A string in my mind was struck instantly.

Since from a scientific point of view, I probably did everything I could.

So why not break the science?

"Everything that can be explained belongs to science, and everything that cannot be explained belongs to theology."

"The end of science is metaphysics."

Yang Xiaotao muttered to himself and took out the New Year's lucky charm from the space.

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

After saying that, he looked around, cleared the table, and then took out the seeds from the space.

In the space, there are seeds left from the experiments during this period.

Each time there were several kilograms, Yang Xiaotao only took out a handful and put them on the paper recording the information.

Soon, the table was covered with experimental corn seeds.

Yang Xiaotao turned around, searched around for a while, and finally found a chopstick, looked at it, and broke it with all his strength.

"The thick head is the male parent."

"The thin head is the parent."

Picking up the lucky charm, Yang Xiaotao clasped his hands together, "The Taoist ancestors of the Sanqing Dynasty are above, the Jade Emperor is blessing, the Queen Mother appears, Sister Chang'e favors, all the 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 successfully."

After finishing his words, Yang Xiaotao scoffed and tore up the lucky charm in his hand.

Then, nothing happened.

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

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

"There was no reaction."

Yang Xiaotao thought it would be something earth-shattering, but this is the result?

Taking a deep breath, Yang Xiaotao turned around, closed his eyes, and held half of the chopsticks in each hand.

"God bless."

"Amitabha"

"Infinite Heavenly Lord"

"Those who are facing a battle are all arrayed in front."

"Go!"

Two chopsticks were thrown from above his head.

snap

patter

The sound fell until there was no sound.

At this moment, the four-leaf clover in front of Yang Xiaotao dissipated little by little, disappearing like smoke in the blink of an eye.

When Yang Xiaotao saw that there was no movement, he turned around and looked back.

"Holy shit"

"It's really unreliable."

There was only one chopstick on the table, and it was placed between two piles of corn.

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

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

Yang Xiaotao stepped forward, muttering in his mouth, and preparing to pack it up.

But when he lowered his head to pick up the chopsticks that fell on the ground, a corn was lying 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 were very straight, pointing straight at the corn kernels two centimeters away.

The posture was as if he was running towards it, not as casual as if he had fallen to the ground.

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

Yang Xiaotao suddenly stood up and stared at the half-cut chopsticks on the table.

Only then did he realize that the chopsticks were not without a target, but were accurately placed in the middle of the two piles of corn seeds.

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

"They're all female."

"The one on top is the female parent. Is the one on the bottom the male parent?"

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

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

A somewhat nagging Yang Xiaotao suddenly picked up his energy and carefully picked up the corn kernels under the table.

"Xiaowei, let's go."

As soon as the voice fell, Xiaowei 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, and then carefully buried the seeds in his hand into the soil.

Finally, he found a water ladle and watered it.

"Xiaowei, it's up to you."

Xiaowei jumped off her shoulders and landed on top of 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 dot slowly emerged from the soil.

Yang Xiaotao thought about it again, returned to the house, found a seed from each of the two piles of mother plants and buried it.

The same operation was done again. After it was over, Xiaowei flew back to Yang Xiaotao's shoulder, her voice sounding a little tired.

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

Collect the seeds on the table and store the last two piles of female seeds separately.

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

In the following week, Yang Xiaotao focused all his attention on these three corns. With Xiaowei's constant replenishment of energy, these three corns grew rapidly. Then, under Xiaowei's precise control, the pollen accurately fell into the inflorescence. , the fertilization process went smoothly, and then we waited for the fruits to mature and obtain more parents.
