Gutas was tied tightly to the chair, and he couldn't remember how many days he had stayed here. He slept irregularly—sometimes, he was not allowed to sleep for several days, and sometimes, he fell asleep and was ignored for a whole day. In this case, the concept of time is very blurred
Before, he tried to calculate time based on the number of meals, but gradually he discovered that the number of meals was not fixed. Sometimes it would be an exaggerated five meals a day, which were extremely rich, and sometimes it would be one meal a day, noodles in clear soup, as if to test his physical condition under various circumstances.
The only thing that never changes is the blood draw. Basically, blood will be drawn before eating, blood will be drawn after eating, blood will be drawn before going to bed, and blood will be drawn again after sleeping.
Gutas was a little curious as to where he got so much blood to draw for the demon alchemist.
The demon alchemist seemed to have explained to him... The human body can produce blood by itself. As long as the amount of blood drawn is within the range of the human body's hematopoietic speed, there is no need to worry about the blood being drained.
Gutas couldn't understand and didn't believe what the demon alchemist said, he just thought he was lying to him. Anyway, he felt that every time he drew blood, his body would weaken a little, and his soul would also weaken. He was now like a cow that was being milked crazily. When the milk ran out, he would be close to death.
Damn alchemist!
Gutas cursed in his heart, and suddenly couldn't help but feel a chill all over his body. When he turned his head, he saw the demon alchemist he was scolding in his heart, looking straight at him, The look in his eyes was very strange, and he couldn't help but feel a little hairy.
This... what are you going to do to him again
Damn, that’s definitely something bad!
He couldn't let the other party continue so unscrupulously, he had to find a way. Yes, we must find a way to change his situation. Otherwise, he will not only lose his life, but also his soul.
…
Richard looked at Gutas, his thoughts racing, thinking about how to conduct experiments to verify his series of theoretical guesses.
Generally speaking, science, especially cutting-edge science, such as physics, can be divided into two categories—theoretical science and experimental science. Therefore, it is also divided into two types of scientists—theoretical scientists and experimental scientists.
The main job of a theoretical scientist is to rely on logical thinking and imagination to construct possible theories. Experimental scientists are responsible for designing a series of experiments to prove the theories of theoretical scientists.
It doesn't matter whether the two are high or low, because the promotion of one science cannot be achieved without anyone else.
However, for Richard, thinking about one thing is often a leap. Bizarre but logical ideas will often come up. After some reasoning and confirmation that they are realistic, he will try to think of ways to design. Experimental proof.
To put it simply, Richard is the type who puts theory first and verification follows. If he were brought into the identity of a scientist, Li noticed that he should be biased towards a theoretical scientist.
Of course, he can also do some experimental designs, but it will take a little time.
So how should we design and prove the theory in front of us
Richard thought for a long time and had a preliminary prototype of the experiment. The next moment, he picked up the syringe from the experimental table and walked towards Gutas - no matter how the verification experiment was carried out, there was nothing wrong with drawing some blood from Gutas.
With these thoughts in mind, Richard walked up to Gutas, holding the syringe and was about to stab him, when he saw Gutas struggling violently and looking at him with a vicious look.
Richard raised his eyebrows, looked at Gutas and said, "What are you doing? It's not your first day here. Don't you still understand that resistance is meaningless? No matter how powerful you are in resisting, you are the only one who can resist." It's just a loss for yourself, it won't change any results at all.
So, cooperate a little bit. This is good for you and me. How about you behave better and raise the standard of your meal tomorrow - how about adding a chicken drumstick? "
"Uh huh!" Gutas made a sound with his mouth blocked by a rag, as if he wanted to say something.
Richard blinked, reached out and pulled out the rag, looked at Gutas and asked, "What do you want to express?!"
"Gudong!"
Gutas swallowed hard first, moistening his dry and unbearable throat, and then said viciously: "Boy, let me go!"
"This is impossible." Richard said, "You should know very well that it is impossible for me to let you go."
"No!" Gutas shouted, "You are the one who doesn't understand! I tell you, if you don't let me go, I will make you regret it."
"Oh, why do you make me regret it? Can you still do harm to me?" Richard asked.
"No, of course I can't be detrimental to you now." Gutas understood very well, "But I can be detrimental to myself."
"Um?"
"I can commit suicide!" Gutas said slightly crazily, "You trapped me and fed me every day, didn't you just want to study me and get something from me? Humph, although I don't know what your specific research is. What is it, but I am sure that only the living me has value, and the dead me means nothing to you. So, let me go quickly, or I will commit suicide and let you get nothing."
Richard looked at Gutas calmly: "Let's not talk about whether your threat is logical or not. You can't solve the simplest problem - how are you going to commit suicide?"
Gutas stuck his tongue out of his mouth and shook it in protest: "I will commit suicide in this way!"
"Bite your tongue and commit suicide?" Richard's eyes flashed slightly, without any nervousness at all, and he spoke slowly, "Well, now while I let go of your mouth, it would be a good opportunity to bite your tongue and commit suicide. But out of good intentions, I advise you to still Don’t do it. Although there are many rumors and rumors that biting the tongue can cause death, in fact, it is simply impossible.”
"Um?"
"The simplest thing is, you should have seen and heard of people who had their tongues cut off, right? Aren't they alive and well
Do you think it will hurt you to death if you bite off your tongue? impossible. Although the tongue has an abundance of pain-sensing nerve endings, they are much smaller than those on the fingers. You may have seen or heard of people wearing tongue rings, but when have you ever seen people wearing tongue rings with holes drilled into them? It hurts even if your fingers are cut off, and even less painful if you bite your tongue.
Will he bleed to death? Not possible either. Most of the part of the tongue that you can bite off is covered with capillaries, and it is impossible to bleed too much. Moreover, this is a waste - after all, the main purpose of your resistance to me is not to let me draw your blood, but you will bleed just like you bite your tongue. It also bleeds, why not give it to me, at least it can contribute to science.
Besides, if you really have to bite your tongue, the biggest possibility is that you won’t be able to bite it off. Human bite force is not small. Although it is not as strong as the bite force of beasts that can easily weigh hundreds or thousands of kilograms, under the premise that all the jaw muscles are functioning, the incisors can produce a bite force of about 50 kilograms, and the molars can produce nearly 50 kilograms of bite force. A bite force of 200 pounds.
Biting the tongue like this can theoretically bite it off, but don't forget that humans have a sense of self-protection. Just as it is impossible for humans to hold their breath and die, when you are about to bite your tongue, the pain that continues to occur will continue to have a counterproductive effect on you.
Therefore, the most likely reason why you try to commit suicide by biting your tongue is that you only bite halfway before you can't stand it anymore. This is nothing to be ashamed of. After all, most people who successfully bite their tongue often do so due to passive or accidental injuries.
In fact, the only way to successfully commit suicide by biting your tongue is to cause fainting through pain, and then make the base of the tongue contract to block the trachea and suffocate to death. However, this method can be completely avoided as long as timely treatment is given. "
Richard looked at Gutas and said seriously: "I don't think I am a very good doctor, but I can still treat tongue biting and choking problems. So, no matter how you want to bite, I will I can guarantee that you won’t die, well, I will do what I say.”
After hearing what Richard said, Gutas looked at Richard as if he had seen a ghost. He couldn't understand most of what Richard said, but that didn't stop him from concluding a fact from Richard's calm tone - tongue-biting, a suicide method, didn't seem to really threaten Richard.
That…
Gutas secretly gritted his teeth, and after a while he said angrily: "Even if I can't bite my tongue, I can still commit suicide."
"Huh? Can you commit suicide without biting your tongue? In what way?"
"I won't tell you!" Gutas said with a strong face, "Anyway, if you don't let me go now, I will commit suicide without telling you!"
"Heh, are you sure?"
"Sure."
"Well, let me slowly see what your confident means of suicide are."
Gutas: "..."
