When he was about to arrive at the airport, the smile on Xiang Kun's face slowly retracted, he knew that he had just been immersed in a certain emotion, and there might be "emotional assimilation".

At that time, he naturally did not pay attention to the other vehicles around him, and at high speeds, he was affected by wind noise, road noise and body isolation, and he could not hear too many sounds from other vehicles.

But his instinct to collect perceptual information about his surroundings allowed him to catch signs that his ability to "assimilate emotions" can affect people in the surrounding area, even in high-speed vehicles, and is not isolated by movement speed and vehicle body.

In a way, his ability to "assimilate emotions" has changed a lot from when he first started.

At the beginning, according to Xiang Kun's observation, after he was deeply immersed in a certain emotion, the premise of the impact of "emotional assimilation" was that other people noticed him and looked at him, and the target of "emotional assimilation" to produce emotions could only be him.

It's like when he was carrying a bow and bag on the road, only people who accidentally saw him would have the same emotions, and in their minds, the person who walked alone in the emotion was still Xiang Kun;

So he once thought that when he was immersed in a certain emotion, it was his demeanor, expressions, body movements, and various messages from his body that had a certain physiological hypnotic effect on the people around him who noticed him, so that they were unconsciously brought into the same emotion. Because the target of attention is him, the emotional carrier is still him.

But as time went by, the number of blood drinks and mutations increased, and unconsciously, the way and degree of influence of "emotional assimilation" changed greatly.

Now that he is immersed in a certain emotion, he does not need the attention of the people around him, and he can directly influence and assimilate without discrimination.

It's like on the train, he sits in his place, in fact, few people in the car notice him, but they are still affected by his emotions, and his emotional goal is the same as that of the person who locks the hegemon.

At that time, if there were people outside the train who were affected, it was likely that they would also be assimilated into emotions, but because they did not have the same emotional target, their reactions would be different.

Just like on the highway just now, some of the people in the surrounding vehicles were affected by Xiang Kun, but they didn't see Xiang Kun, and they didn't even know about his existence, so their reactions would definitely be a little different.

After entering the "supersensory state" several times and making a large number of observations, Xiang Kun guessed that when the "emotional assimilation" took effect, it should be the special "energy" that he used to communicate with various related objects that played a key role.

However, when it comes to the specific emotions this time, it is very special, after arriving at the airport, he faintly feels that his body seems to have changed a little under the influence of emotions. He could intuitively feel the change, but he couldn't describe it concretely.

It was as if his control over his body had become more rounded, and the abilities and energies he had absorbed were rapidly being assimilated and fused.

Why is this happening?

In fact, even Xiang Kun himself couldn't tell what kind of emotions he was talking about when he was laughing on the road just now, what kind of emotions he was, and what his goal was.

He just thought back to his college life and some thoughts, and then thought about the experience of being a few months but a long few years after the mutation, which felt a little absurd and funny, and a little helpless and melancholy, and a variety of feelings were intertwined, and finally it turned into anticipation, happiness and excitement.

How would it feel for people on the highway or in other cars to be affected by this emotion, especially if they didn't know Xiang Kun existed.

It's hard to imagine, but it shouldn't be too negative.

At least he's feeling good right now.

......

After Xiang Kun arrived at the airport, he didn't wait for a while, but he saw Peng Xiao, who arrived on the same plane, and Tan Lulu, their old squad leader from college.

Of course, he didn't go up to prank like he did when he and Chang Bin took over a few months ago, some jokes have to be made depending on the relationship, and the relationship is not to that extent, or he knows that the other party's character can't make such jokes and goes to make such jokes, which will be annoying.

"Lao Peng, Lao Ban, here. Xiang Kun beckoned to the two of them, and stepped forward to take the initiative to help Tan Lulu with the suitcase.

Seeing the two of them looking at themselves with a little confused expressions, Xiang Kun didn't sell it, and said with a smile: "You can't recognize it, right? I'm Xiang Kun." ”

"Xiang Kun, I'll go! What's going on, you've become too much, you just came over, and I'm still telling our old squad leader that if that bald guy takes off his glasses and changes into a suit, he's a killer 47." Peng Xiao quipped.

Xiang Kun smiled and responded: "It's just a little more exercise." Then he led the two of them to the side to rest first, and they had to wait for another college classmate, whose flight would not arrive in about forty minutes.

For Peng Xiao and Tan Lulu, Xiang Kun naturally also established a corresponding cognitive model, most of which are based on the memories of the college days, but from the brief greeting from the first meeting, their personalities can be basically corrected, and then targeted judgments can be made.

In Xiang Kun's opinion, Peng Xiao is still the same person who likes to be loud and familiar before, so he did not give too enthusiastic positive feedback, but maintained a normal politeness, and made himself appear a little mysterious and difficult to mess with, which can save a lot of trouble.

This is not to say that he hates Peng Xiao, but just that the choice of his social strategy can make him easier and less effortful.

Just like Zicheng also likes to joke very much, and he is also very cheap if he is suitable, but Xiang Kun will give strong feedback and counterattack, which can be said to be another social strategy choice, or it can be said to be the real feedback of the strategy, which is more emotional and direct.

After chatting with the two for a while, another classmate, Xie Jun, also arrived, and after a short greeting, he went to the parking lot under the guidance of Xiang Kun.

"Xiang Kun, are you still doing it in the previous company?" Tan Lulu asked after getting in the car.

"No, I'm doing something on my own now. Xiang Kun replied simply.

"Starting your own business?That's good, what is it about??," Peng Xiao also asked.

"It's just a little fight. Xiang Kun said with a smile: "But I heard Chang Bin say, Lao Peng, your current company is doing well, it seems that it has carried out several rounds of financing? ”

"billionaire, I'm the smallest partner. And now it's not as good as a few years ago, capital is not willing to burn money, and it's starting to be cautious, alas, it's difficult to start a business these days, or the iron rice bowl of the old class is the most comfortable. ”

"How can there be any iron rice bowl these days, Peng Xiao, don't complain, I heard that you just bought a villa in September, and you also bought a sports car to send to your girlfriend?"

"Niu, Mr. Peng, when will I go to play with you and take me to see the life of a local tyrant. Xie Jun, who was sitting in the co-pilot, also looked back and smiled.

After successfully guiding the topic to Peng Xiao, Xiang Kun didn't participate much and concentrated on driving.

Entering the city and waiting for the red light, Xie Jun suddenly said: "Xiang Kun, your driving skills are very good." ”

Before Xiang Kun could answer, Peng Xiao, who was sitting behind him, had already leaned on the back of the front seat, stretched out his head and asked curiously, "What's a good way?"

Xie Jun explained: "Driving skills are not simply based on whether the speed is fast in a short period of time, the urban area is so congested, and the speed limit on the highway is limited, how fast can it go." Mainly Xiang Kun drives, very 'rhythmic', I have observed for more than ten minutes, his prediction is particularly accurate, and particularly stable, I know a lot of powerful drivers, driving in ordinary life is like this. He had just been overtaking all the way, and the overall speed of the whole road was actually very fast, and he was still on the line when he cornered. But you sit in the back, you don't feel like you're driving intensely, right? That's the best part. ”

"What you say is true, Xiang Kun's driving is indeed stable. Tan Lulu also nodded in agreement.

Xiang Kun smiled: "After all, I am also an old driver who has obtained a driver's license for nine years, and I am also familiar with Chang Bin's car." But Xie Jun, don't you also make a website, how can you 'know a lot of great drivers'?"

He did get his driver's license for nine years, but in fact, the number of times he drove in these two years can be counted on two hands. However, Chang Bin's Magotan he has driven many times, and has already established a cognitive model, and there is also a corresponding cognitive model pairing for driving technology, every time he drives, he will constantly revise the model, with his visual ability, reaction ability, brain information processing ability, it is naturally not difficult to improve driving ability.

He even suspected that if the car was driven for a while, he might unknowingly establish a "supersensory connection" with some of them.

On the way back from the airport, he was actually subconsciously "practicing", but he was actually driving very gently, originally he thought that the three people in the car would not notice anything abnormal, after all, from the absolute senses, he did not drive the kind of drag racing feeling of speeding up and braking, but it was very stable.

Xie Jun said with a smile: "Because I do a car evaluation website, although I am responsible for online development and maintenance, but because I also like cars, I usually don't have much to do, so I also did some new car reviews, helped them take videos, and went to the track to run with colleagues when I had nothing to do, so I know a lot of test drivers." ”

Tan Lulu and Peng Xiao were very interested in Xie Jun's industry, and began to ask him again and again, asking him which car company had the most recharge, and asking him which brand and which one were most recommended among the cars at a certain price on the market.

Xiang Kun also interjected a sentence or two from time to time to help advance the topic and let them focus on Xie Jun.

But one thing Xie Jun mentioned was that Xiang Kun's attention was also attracted at once.

"At that time, several automotive media went to test the off-road vehicle, and our website was understaffed, so I went along to act as a photographer. The car tested, said to be an off-road vehicle, is actually an urban SUV with limited ability to get out of trouble, and it doesn't even have a rear differential lock...... Uh, none of that matters. In short, while our convoy was driving along the intended route, a strange thing happened, and while walking through a wooded area, the leading vehicle hit and killed a wolf. Xie Jun tilted his head sideways and told his story to the two classmates in the back seat.

"It's normal for you to have wolves in the place where you went to test the car, could it be that you were surrounded by wolves later?" Peng Xiao asked strangely.

Xie Jun lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "No, the wolf was hit so badly, we thought it would die, but we didn't expect it to stumble up and run away." And the person in the car in front said that the wolf had horns on its head. ”

"Horns? Wrong, right? Wolves can still grow horns? If you want to say that horses have horns, then you can also say that you have hit a unicorn, what kind of monster is this wolf with horns?" Tan Lulu couldn't help laughing.

"Unicorns are also creatures in fairy tale books, okay!" Peng Xiao complained beside him, and asked Xie Jun again: "Aren't you all media people? No one takes pictures or videos? There is also a dashcam in the car, right?"

"That's where the weirdness goes. Xie Jun said: "The dashcam took a picture, and some of our media people were taking pictures of the surrounding scenes, and they also took pictures." I've seen all those pictures and videos, and I did hit something with horns that looked like a canine. ”

Tan Lulu said curiously: "There are videos and images, then the news should have been flying all over the sky a long time ago, you have discovered a new species!"

"I haven't talked about the strange thing yet...... Xie Jun said.

"I'll go, my military brother, you've been talking about this strange place for a long time, what's so strange?" Peng Xiao scolded with a smile.

"Your videos and images can't all be lost, right?" said Xiang Kun seemingly casually.

"That's right!" Xie Jun immediately confirmed his guess, and then said: "After we returned to the camp that night, all the relevant videos and pictures in the equipment disappeared, and even the records on the dashcam were gone, not only the car, but all the cars!"

"Deleted?" Peng Xiao said in surprise.

"Unless we delete it ourselves. Xie Jun shook his head: "Many people have copied the video, and I have copied it too." ”

"Then I guess you didn't copy it?" Peng Xiao guessed.

"No way, I've seen it on my own device. ”

Xiang Kun asked, "Have you ever stopped on the way?"

"Yes, I stopped a few times, and some tires were broken, and some of my water tanks were broken. Xie Jun said: "But we actually found the problem halfway through the drive, the lead car that hit the wolf, the blood and fur left on it, are all gone." ”

"Did you drive a little way and get covered in dust or something? Or maybe you passed a puddle or something, and it was washed away by the water?" Tan Lulu guessed.

"No, even if there is, it can't be left at all. Xie Jun said, "After we returned to the camp, we removed all the bumpers of the car, and after careful inspection, there was really no blood at all, not a single wolf hair! And the technician at the camp said that judging from the marks on the bumper, the car did not look like it hit an animal, but it looked like it hit a stone." It's just that all the videos and pictures that we can prove are gone. The dash cams of all the cars are also turned off, and there is no record of that day on them, as if they forgot to turn them on when they set off, but I am very sure that the team leader in charge of the activity before the departure confirmed the condition of the cars, and confirmed the working conditions of the dash cams of all the cars, and we also confirmed it ourselves. ”

"This is also ...... It's weird. Tan Lulu said in surprise.

Peng Xiao was also suspicious: "It's too mysterious! It feels like you're making up a story, you can't be a collective hallucination, right?"

"It wasn't just one or two people that day, it was more than two dozen people! How could it be that they all had the same hallucinations, and they didn't notice anything at the time?" Xie Jun said, "but then this incident, really slowly everyone thought that the car had hit a stone, and we forgot to drive the dash cam when we set off, because there was no other explanation to explain the ......."

"Xie Jun, aren't you really making up a story to fool me?" Tan Lulu still didn't believe it.

"You can just make up a story for me, hey, but I talked to a photographer from other media about this earlier, and he had a theory that maybe we were at the end of the world, that is, ...... Do you know the Mandela effect? It is the collective memory of certain historical events that does not match the historical facts, but in fact, the multiverse is influencing each other. When our lead car crashed into the long-horned wolf, it was actually an event from another parallel universe, and those memories were strung to our side and into our minds. In that alternate universe, our cars all had dashcams, and we did hit the horned wolf. But in our world, the car just hit the rocks, the team's dashcam forgot to drive, and we didn't take those pictures related to the long-horned wolf......"

Peng Xiao looked confused: ", Xie Jun! You went to test the car, and you actually jumped from the animal world to a monster horror movie, and this jumped directly to a science fiction movie?"

Regarding what Xie Jun told him, Peng Xiao and Tan Lulu naturally felt that they were listening to the story, and even Xie Jun himself was not sure whether this had happened.
