Xiao Qingyin was astonished to discover that the golden threads were actually coming from the abdomens of the insects.

They connect the tendons, blood vessels, and nerves at both ends of the severed leg.

It was as if they were trying to reconnect the broken leg.

This made her wonder: "Could these insects have the ability to repair the limbs of other creatures?"

The world is full of wonders.

Sea slugs, after being infected with parasites and decapitating themselves, can not only eat but also move around without a body, and can even grow a new body over several weeks.

What's so strange about this golden insect being able to reattach severed limbs from other organisms?

She became more and more excited as she thought about it.

Immediately place the severed leg back onto the rabbit's body at the point of injury, and secure the rabbit with wooden strips and bandages to prevent it from struggling.

Then he moved a stool over, took out the microscope tube, and stared intently at the severed leg.

The eagle owl's eyes turned red with envy, and it grabbed the wooden strip and cried out.

"Hmph! Hmph!" You human, why are you staring at the food and not even looking at me!

Xiao Qingyin put her right hand into the cage and stroked its fur.

"Don't make a fuss, I'm waiting for a miracle."

The eagle owl then quieted down.

"Hoo hoo~" Okay, okay, I forgive you.

As it spoke, it fell asleep.

The rabbit's breathing gradually calmed down, and its eyes regained some brightness.

It did not struggle violently, as if the repair and reconnection made by the golden worm at its severed leg was completely painless.

The wounds torn by the eagle owl's claws are naturally very uneven.

When Xiao Qingyin attached it, she only roughly aligned it; in some places, the skin and flesh were uneven and did not fit perfectly.

But these golden insects, like a programmed loom, precisely pulled the flesh from both ends of the severed leg together.

It only took half an hour to restore the leg to its original state. Apart from the bloodstains on the fur, it didn't look broken at all.

Xiao Qingyin gently touched the rabbit's paw, and the rabbit immediately withdrew its leg.

Xiao Qingyin's heart pounded like thunder.

The leg has really been reattached!

And it could move as soon as it was connected!

This discovery is enough to shock all of humanity and easily win the Nobel Prize in Medicine!

Xiao Qingyin only regretted that she couldn't immediately take the insect back with her and write ten or eight papers, so that the editors of "Nature", "Science" and "Cell" would be chasing after her for manuscripts.

She wanted to scream, to shout, to run into the street and tell everyone.

"Do you know what? I just witnessed the greatest miracle in human history!"

Fortunately, her strong self-control restrained her impulse.

She was only excited for a quarter of an hour before bringing over a few mice from the cage in the corner and repeating the experiment.

The busy work lasted until nightfall, when the eagle owl finally woke up from its nap.

"Hurry! Hurry!" Let me out right now, I'm going to hunt for food!

Xiao Qingyin put down the microscope, opened the cage, and carried the eagle owl outside to release it.

She couldn't possibly keep such a great discovery to herself, and when Yi Jiu came to hand in his homework that evening, she told him about it.

Yi Shuihan was extremely shocked.

He originally thought that the insects on Linlang's body only sucked human blood and were specifically used to control her.

I never expected it to have the ability to reattach severed limbs.

"Then can Wei Yan's severed arm be reattached?"

He blurted it out.

Xiao Qingyin shook her head.

"No, his arm was injured by gunpowder, and there's still a lot of gunpowder left inside. Even if it's reattached, it will ooze pus and become necrotic."

"What if we replaced his arms?"

Yi Shuihan asked.

"Well..." Xiao Qingyin hesitated for a moment, "It should be possible to connect it, but what do we do after we connect it?"

"Although these insects don't gnaw on tissues and organs, they only suck blood, but who can guarantee that the suppressant drugs will always be effective?"

“Prolonged use of the same drug can lead to drug resistance, at which point these insects will be unable to be suppressed, resulting in a backlash.”

"Moreover, we only have a superficial understanding of these insects and don't know if they have any other characteristics. What if they are the legendary Gu insects, and there is a queen insect that can control them?"

"Using it for human transplants is too risky and not worth it."

Xiao Qingyin had considered helping Wei Yan transplant both arms, but she didn't have fine enough sutures to perform such a difficult surgery as reattaching severed arms.

After listening, Yi Shuihan fell silent for a moment.

Indeed, a body that is intact but could die at any moment or become a puppet is more desirable than a body that has only lost its arms.

“However,” Xiao Qingyin paused, “it would be different if we could find a way to kill these insects.”

Then we can use insects to reattach the arm, use inhibitory drugs to control the insects during the repair period, and then kill them after the limb has fully recovered.

This will create a completely new biological therapy.

Humans have long learned to use biological agents to treat diseases, and the bee therapy she used before was one of them.

Other methods include leech acupuncture, which uses leeches to treat diabetic foot; and fly maggot therapy, which uses maggots to clean up necrotic tissue in the human body, etc.

"you're right."

Yi Shuihan nodded.

"But how can we find a way to exterminate them?"

He had just finished speaking when a figure swept in through the window and landed on Xiao Qingyin's shoulder.

Xiao Qingyin reached out and hugged the eagle owl to her chest.

I ate several mouthfuls.

"That's where our Lord Owl comes in."

Xiao Qingyin told him that Owl had not been infected by the golden insects.

Then he asserted, "Its food must contain the nemesis of those insects."
