Chapter 30 Hard Skin

“Is this a human specimen? ”

“Definitely not, it doesn't look like human skin...”

Ten groups of students discussed each other. All of the ten anatomical table refrigerators contained almost the same thing, a large rectangular block, which looked like part of the trunk of a living organism, but the revealed skin was dark and slightly decayed, and the pungent smell of formalin could not hide its own intense odor.

“Yark Jun, what do you think?” Cai Zixuan asked again.

Gu Jun looked at the thing on the anatomy table, and the more he looked at it, the stranger he felt familiar...

“I think it's some kind of creature's chest.” He said to Cai Zixuan and Wang Ruoxiang, "Look, here, here.” He pointed to four sections of this thing up, down, around, and said, "I guess those sections were originally connected to the neck, upper limbs, and abdomen. ”

“Yes.” Wang Ruxiang imagined the complete torso, frowning: “So this is a human creature? ”

Cai Zixuan was surprised: “Is it the remains of deformities caused by another disease? ”

Some other students also have this idea, and Sun Yuheng and Yang Ming of the Youth University team feel that the situation really is very serious.

“It could be, or could be, a different kind.” Gu Jun said, his right hand probe pressed this chest slightly, which is definitely the worst chest he has ever pressed.

The epidermis says the skin is more like a thick layer of hyperplastic keratin, press harder to feel a hard sense of resistance, is the bone, a large piece of bone flat in front of the chest... plate bone?

Gu Jun thought, opening the residual structural map in his head, and looking at it in contrast, it seemed that they were really the same creature.

“So how do we get started?” Wang Ruoxiang asked, now she is the first deputy, Cai Zixuan is the second deputy, and Gu Jun is the main knife.

The other day, Gu Jun started showing off in the lab, and it was all his idea.

“I'll think about it first.” Gu Jun is still looking at this chest and designing the autopsy plan.

Meanwhile, the other players are also measuring, and the teachers and students in the audience are watching, all rats biting turtles can't do anything.

The first step in dissection is to make incisions, stripes, and systematically separate layers of tissue, organs, and structures.

If you stab it in and cut it, it's not called an autopsy, it's called a mutilation.

Only if the various sites are properly resolved can the organs and structures of those lesions be observed and the differences in size, shape, construction, texture, etc. compared to their normal state be observed so that the relevant pathologies can be understood.

And anatomy can also clearly understand its physiological structure and figure out what kind of organism it is.

These are the medical meanings of anatomy.

If it's an anatomical chest, the students know exactly what to do, midchest incision, upper chest border incision, subthoracic border incision, chest slant incision… now they can only stare at each other in confusion, really experience the mood of those anatomical pioneers when they first move the knife.

The difficulty of this round of assessment is that it can only be done while scrutinizing and not as a corpse.

“Ladies and gentlemen, enjoy yourselves.” At this point, Professor Qin said again, "I just forgot to say, please complete this autopsy within two hours. ”

Some of the athletes were in a hurry, only for two hours? It's an hour less than a regular autopsy.

It was no surprise that the judges reacted to the crowd. This was not the first time they had done this. Basically, the students ended up being mutilated, depending on who had ideas and skills.

They looked around and even though they already knew Gu Jun was Kim the fool, they saw more what the boy would do. At this time, Gu Jun stood still at the anatomical table, and several judges were not answered by the junction:

“The kid's a fool. ”

“I don't think he even has the autopsy under control. Can he not be stupid? ”

“Let's see if he has a gift in his hand, see if he can teach it later, after all, his willpower is really good. ”

Shortly after Professor Qin hurried, a group of students made the first move. The four of them were a group of miscellaneous army from different schools. They were not even familiar with each other's names. There were not so many concerns, but they were even more rigid. Their strategy is simple, just follow the anatomy of the chest of the human body, and the shape of both looks the same.

At the moment, they painted a ladylike line on this specimen with a central incision in front of their chest. If they can't find the upper edge of the sternum handle and the sword projection, they find the corresponding position. After finishing the other scribes, the scalpel stabbed...

If this prick goes any further, they'll be shocked and stunned.

The texture of this black-smelling “skin" is very hard, and the scalpel is stuck there, like a pedestrian falling into the mud.

At the same time, other students who also dissected their skin first encountered this same difficulty.

Others chose to start with several sections, such as Young Sun Hengyu and them. But they immediately encountered another difficulty, the flesh was still cut, deeper was the bone, the bones were everywhere obstructed, and they didn't know where to break from.

These bones are the big stones that clog the passage and cannot enter the chest wall and chest cavity without removing them.

But how do we move?

Now only Gu Jun is left in the 10 groups of students. Gu Jun has only asked Wang Ruoxiang and Cai Zixuan to move this chest for a few positions, and finally he changed back to supine position. He can basically be sure that this is what's in the map of the residual structure.

“The outer layer is full of hard keratin and there are no tissue organs. ”

Gu Jun copied a large anatomical knife and grabbed it irregularly, crushing a horn down the cortex of the specimen.

The judges over there saw this fight. Oh, is he going to split up?

“Certainly not.” Wang Ruoxiang took a look in his hand and really couldn't see the superficial fascia, blood vessels, etc., it was like a dead skin.

“It's not human.” Tsai Zixuantong was shocked, "It doesn't look like a mammal, does it? Is there such a thing? ”

“Forget it.” Gu Jun said, the blood vessels are unclear. This thing is still “nervous" and he knows where it is. “I think the outermost layer is a protective film, a skin, a muscle, wrapped around the bones inside. ”

He said that while pressing that residual map, he drew a better line on the specimen, and said to two people: "Remove all the cortex from these positions, without having to lighten it, dig it all up directly and clear it until the bones are exposed. ”

“Uh?” Tsai Zixuan didn't quite understand, but of course he nodded: “Listen to you. ”

“Okay.” Wang Ruoxiang didn't understand either. It might be more appropriate to call the pork guy from the food market to do it.

But the two men obeyed Gu Jun's idea, and now with him, he used a large scalpel to frantically cut and dig, peel and pick, and when the anatomy stage paused, it was lame.

What are they going to do? There is no doubt that the player students around them saw it. Teachers and students in the audience don't understand, so disrespectful of anatomical principles?

“Huh.” The judges were surprised. Professor Qin frowned. Why does this Tu Haojun seem to have some way to go...
