Chapter 3: The Palace of Memory

Gu Xiaobai, who was lying on the table, slept very happily, and his saliva flowed out.

In fact, he didn't realize that he was asleep, because in his mind, he was still lying on his stomach at the table, continuing to study.

This is not a dream, but Gu Xiaobai's memory palace.

Human beings are born to remember the roads they have traveled and the spaces they live in, and they can easily find anything that they put away, because those who cannot remember the way, cannot find their weapons, and forget the location of the trap have been eaten by wild beasts that cannot catch their prey in primitive times.

But it is difficult for human beings to remember the knowledge in textbooks, complex theories. This is because the development of human knowledge and science has far exceeded the speed of human evolution, so human beings need to spend a lot of time to learn.

Libraries and networks are all things that can expand human memory, but external storage can never be compared with one's own memory.

And the memory palace can be called the most powerful memory technique of human beings, and it is also one of the memory techniques that Gu Xiaobai is best at.

In your own mind, construct a familiar scene, whether it is a textbook on a desk, a book on a shelf, a switch behind a door, or a rust on a doorknob, all connected to a certain part of memory.

In Gu Xiaobai's memory palace, there are four rooms, one is the bedroom before going to college, recording the knowledge he learned before college, one is the utility room, recording all kinds of messy miscellaneous studies, and one is the living room, recording all kinds of things that need to be dealt with at the moment.

And the last room is where Gu Xiaobai is staying now, his dormitory at Dongyuan University.

I don't know if it's because of Gu Xiaobai's talent, or because of his extra hard work, his memory palace is indestructible, extraordinarily concrete, and lifelike.

And this impregnable palace of memory is a barrier that the system cannot break through no matter what.

In the memory palace, the wind of the air conditioner blows the curtains and swings gently, and a tree outside the window sways gently in the wind.

"Jingle bell ......" Gu Xiaobai's mobile phone rang suddenly, he suddenly raised his head, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth suspiciously, and grabbed the phone.

"Hey...... What do you say?!!!"

Gu Xiaobai immediately sobered up.

......

Dongyuan University has four halls of various sizes that can be used as performance venues, and Hall 3 is the newest one, and here, from the morning, it is crowded with people because the primary election is held here.

At Dongyuan University, both students and faculty members are very busy with their studies and work, and the scale of the primary selection is very large, so both judges and students basically follow a cycle of one and a half hours, and make an appointment to participate in the time when there is no class, and the students participate on time, and the judges rotate at any time.

After all, this is a primary election on campus, and it can't be like a social audition, where students sing two sentences and just go straight down, so you have to take into account the enthusiasm and mentality of the students.

Therefore, there are often car accident scenes, and you have to listen to them forcibly, and then pretend to comment a few words.

Zhao Xingsheng, a professor in the Department of History of Ancient Music and Ancient Musical Instruments, has been a primary judge for the fifth year, and he was still arrested this year.

In previous years, Zhao Xingsheng was still quite interested, but this year, Zhao Xingsheng was like a monkey sitting on a teppanyaki, constantly twisting his body.

In the morning, Dongwon University excavated an artificial lake, but during the exploration, it found the remains of a pre-Qin period, in which a large number of ancient musical instruments were unearthed.

According to preliminary estimates, its scale and its types are even more astonishing than the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, which once shocked China and foreign countries! At this time, Zhao Xingsheng longed to spend 48 hours a day in the Tanfang and tan his skin that had just recently returned white into a yellow, but he really couldn't put it off, so he could only come over.

In this hour and a half, God knows if something good has been discovered by someone else, will those careless graduate students trample on their precious musical instruments? What if something I want to study is snatched away?

Zhao Xingsheng, who suffered from gains and losses, looked impatient, and the performance on stage was really ordinary, and he almost opened his mouth to spray people several times.

Until a handsome young man with a guitar on his back came on stage.

There was a burst of cheers and applause from the audience.

"Brother Yao, come on!"

"Brother Yao!"

In the cheers of everyone, Fu Wenyao carried his beloved Martin D-28 on his back to the stage.

Standing still on the stage, Fu Wenyao glanced down confidently.

In the hall, not counting the classmates who came to help him, there are hundreds of people, it can be regarded as a big stage, if it is an ordinary person, it is already nervous at this time, but Fu Wenyao doesn't know how many times he has been on the stage since he was a child, he bowed very confidently and said: "Class 18 of the Department of Physics, Fu Wenyao, guitar playing and singing Ding Shiguang's "Lunar Eclipse", the accompaniment teacher, please help with a drum beat, 4/4 beat, thank you." Judges, can I start?"

Seeing that Zhao Xingsheng nodded, Fu Wenyao began to play and sing.

Fu Wenyao has been playing the guitar for seven years, and the Martin guitar in his hand is known as "defining the timbre of the guitar", with excellent timbre, and the song "Lunar Eclipse" he chose is the work he has practiced the most recently, and the original singer Ding Shiguang.

As a "newcomer" who has been invisible behind the scenes for more than ten years, the 37-year-old Ding Shiguang has just debuted and won three awards at the Golden Melody Awards for Best Newcomer, Best Album, and Album of the Year.

And "Lunar Eclipse" is his single that has just been released for more than half a year, with a retro taste and rhythmic R&B style.

Fu Wenyao stood on the stage, plucked his fingers, played a short phrase, and then paused, a weak beat, flowing chords flowed out, and Fu Wenyao's magnetic baritro sounded:

"Rain

Non-stop

Non-stop

It seems to take the whole city

's patience is overwhelmed

you

of eyeshadow

All cry flowers

I had to look out the window

I don't know what to say......"

Fu Wenyao stood on the stage, handsomely playing simple but rhythmic chords, after singing the first section, he turned his head and nodded to the keyboardist, and the improvised drum beat of Dong Dong joined in, intertwined with the chords of the guitar, and the atmosphere suddenly brightened.

Fu Wenyao smiled, shook his body with the rhythm of the beat, and entered the second lyrics, the guitar in his hand seemed to be played casually and smoothly, the audience in the audience had just been tortured by the scene of the previous car accident to helplessness, at this time seeing such a performance, they were suddenly driven, and couldn't help swinging their bodies.

The classmates who came to cheer Fu Wenyao shouted even louder:

"Ah, Brother Yao!"

"Brother Yao, I'm going to give birth to a monkey for you!"

The other judge sitting next to Zhao Xingsheng couldn't help but nodded: "Yes, this is really good!"

Zhao Xingsheng, who was full of suffering, had evolved into a crayfish on fire, and his two extraordinarily thick and powerful hands kept opening and closing, seeing that everyone wanted to clamp twice, in his opinion, Fu Wenyao's performance was just good.

He had already bowed his head and was about to call the next one to prepare.

"Gu Xiaobai, is Gu Xiaobai here?" he looked at the list on the laptop screen in front of him and asked the staff next to him.

The staff was at a loss and took the list in their hands: "Mr. Zhao, my list is already the last one......"

"But I have it here. Zhao Xingsheng was displeased.

"What's going on...... Something went wrong?" the staff was confused.

"If it's wrong, then which one is wrong?" Zhao Xingsheng was even more displeased, and wanted to curse if he didn't agree.

At this moment, not far behind him, a classmate who was cheering for Fu Wenyao heard it.

"Teacher, what did you just say about Gu Xiaobai?"

"You know?"

"I know, but we are novices, so it's impossible to sign up. ”

"What?

"Is it really our little white?"

"How many other whites do you know?"

Gu Xiaobai's classmates hula came up.

"I'll give you a call and ask. Gu Xiaobai's roommate Wang Haixia took out his mobile phone.

Fu Wenyao, who was swinging his body on the stage and felt extremely handsome, found that the audience was suddenly in chaos.
