The amygdala, which is responsible for the emotion of "fear" in the temporal lobe of the brain, has caused a lot of interesting things.

Macaques without an amygdala become fearless, so what happens to humans without an amygdala?

There was once a female patient who suffered from a rare disease and atrophied bilateral amygdala lesions in adulthood until they disappeared.

Researchers wonder if this lady is particularly bold now.

So, I took her to a pet store first.

As a result, people had a lot of fun with snakes and scorpions.

In order to test her courage, the researchers took her to a world-famous "haunted house", that is, everyone lined up to buy tickets to go in to find excitement, and many people were so frightened that they cried and called their mothers, and came out with farts and urine.

But the lady still had a lot of fun, and was not afraid of anything that jumped out to bluff people, because of curiosity, she reached out to touch a hideous "monster", but the monster that person pretended to be frightened, because he has always been to scare others, and no one has dared to do anything to him.

After two failed attempts, the researchers came up with a killer idea - take her to the cinema to watch a 3D horror movie.

As a result, after watching several of the world's scariest movies with relish, the lady said to the scientist next to her, who was already crying, "It's so beautiful! I'm going to rent a disc and go home and watch it a few more times!"

At this point, the scientist was crying so much that he couldn't breathe......

Qu Nanxiu laughed after hearing this: "So, if you don't have an amygdala, it's quite fun." ”

He remembered Li Tangni, who was frightened bloodless by the rice-sized spider, if she didn't have an amygdala, she wouldn't be scared anymore, right?

But in that case, who would be so frightened that they call themselves to help drive away the spiders?

Who else would plunge into his arms and tremble?

How can you see her pitiful and cute little appearance?

In this way, every little part of the human body is useful, so let's keep it!

In fact, in the process of countless experiments and papers, Qu Nanxiu seems to be half an "amygdala expert".

He is well aware that the emotion of "fear" is protective for human beings themselves. Because people who don't know how to be afraid don't know how to avoid risks in time, they are more likely to have a bad fate.

For example, the lady mentioned above has also encountered gangsters with knives and guns standing in front of her, but she doesn't know how to be afraid, and thinks that gangsters are no different from ordinary people, so it is easy to put herself in danger.

Therefore, those who were once called "cowards" should be proud of their strong ability to avoid risks and can protect themselves well.

So, what is the relationship between fear and regret?

That is - people who regret the past often have a fear of the future!

Therefore, when the new generation of regret medicine comes out in the future, it should be taken into account that the amygdala should be properly stimulated while editing the memory. The more courageous you are to face the future, the less you will be affected by the past.

Qu Nanxiu helped Luo Renyan together, racing against time to do a series of complex analyses and calculations. With the guidance of a famous teacher, he quickly learned a lot of knowledge that could not be learned in textbooks.

Before leaving, I heard what Shake said to Professor Luo, and another sum of money arrived. He thought it was probably the funds given by the consortium, and there was no need to ask.

However, Luo Renyan took the initiative to explain that the time and amount of funds for the consortium are uncertain, and they are different banks, so they can apply for it if they need it anyway, and they will approve it as long as it is reasonable.

Qu Nanxiu thought to himself, it's just a cash cow! So weighing money can't be illegal income, right?

He asked again: "Then did they give a time limit, and before what time must they develop the regret medicine?"

"I signed the contract, and there are still three years left before it expires. If we can't get a decent finished product within three years, we may not be able to continue to fund us. ”

"Are we sure?"

"There is a generation of regret pills to lay the foundation, and the second generation will be launched within three years, there should be no problem. The previous report was typed, and the other party was very satisfied. ”

Because of his participation in the development of regret medicine, Qu Nanxiu is particularly sensitive to the word "regret", and after paying attention to it, he found that life is full of remorseful people, some are just small regrets, and some regret are so regretful that they wash their faces with tears and can't sleep at night.

Think about it during the day, write about it at night.

That night, Qu Nanxiu wrote the plot of Tu Tian selling regret medicine, but of course he couldn't write about any cranial nerves or complex scientific principles, but used fantasy techniques and wrote his good wishes into it.

I was concentrating on the codeword, and a QQ message suddenly popped up in the corner of the monitor: "17K author/readership invites you to join".

Qu Nanxiu is a native who is out of touch with the times, before writing the online article, he didn't even pretend to be QQ, let alone know what a group chat is.

If it weren't for the mandatory installation of QQ on the website to contact the editor, he wouldn't even know the world's most famous penguin, and it would make people laugh when they say it.

The only instant contact tool he can use is WeChat, but he never posts on Moments, purely for the convenience of sending red envelopes to his family.

Talking to a group of unknown and invisible IDs was an incredible thing for him.

However, since there are authors and readers in this group, they should be able to communicate with each other, which must be beneficial and harmless. As an author, I still want to hear more feedback about the work.

So he innocently nodded "accept"!

Before I could see it clearly, a lively window popped up—

Short Ma, dense avatars, dizzying swiping screens, all kinds of small icons and GIFs flashing non-stop......

Where did Qu Nanxiu see this formation, and he fainted at that time.

I finally saw a few familiar words on the screen with high repetition frequency - "spicy, striped ......"

Oh, it turned out that someone was calling himself for a long time!

I almost forgot that my screen name on 17K is "Five Packs of Spicy Strips"! It seems that this title is much more famous than Qu Nanxiu now.

The members of the group talked about everything from writing books to making covers, from shopping to rolling sheets, to chasing stars and various trivial matters of the seven aunts and eight aunts. At this moment, they all stopped and said hello to his famous ID.

"Brother Spicy is here~"

"Welcome to Brother Spicy Strip~"

"Spicy Brother Auspicious~"

"You're the spicy guy who wrote that or something!"

Everywhere is greeting his own sister, he was drowned in the flowers, a little flattered for a while, as if he had never received this kind of treatment since he was a child, and he didn't know that what he wrote was so popular, so even the roots of his ears were red, and he didn't know which one to look at, let alone what to say.

"Hello comrades", "comrades have worked hard", "have you eaten", these are obviously not appropriate......

He thinks that's what it feels like to go to a press conference, with a crowd of people around you, waiting for you to speak.

The difference is that the press conference is a matter of facts, but the goose "Five Packs of Spicy Strips" as a blockbuster well-known ID of 17K, so that as soon as he appeared in this group chat, he became the object of being teased by many girls groups, they were not interested in the book itself at all, but "How old are you?" "Do you have a girlfriend?" "Does she look as good as me?" "Do you want to make an appointment?" "Let's send a piece of Brother Spicy!" "Let's send a red envelope to Brother Spicy Tiao~"......

In order to date him, beautiful selfies flashed on the screen one after another, and the strange thing was that they all looked about the same, looking at it, a big eye melon seed face, a high-precision nose bridge and a small pout, a big white chest and long legs......

Of course he doesn't understand it, since he has a beauty app, there is no difference between an eighty-year-old and an eighteen-year-old shooting!

But the reason why he is so popular is indeed because the book is good-looking.

The obscure little authors, mainly men, watched him so sought after by the side, only envy, by the way, wipe the saliva and rub a few beautiful women's films.

Qu Nanxiu thought to himself, girls, to be honest, my concentration needs to be investigated, if you can start from talking about the characters or plots in the book, I can't really knock me down. It's a pity that you are too young, and what you think about and type out is all a simple and rough style, which inevitably seems superficial.

For Qu Nanxiu, who to a certain extent "lives outside the world" and "is out of touch with reality", the rare disaster at this moment is not a kind of happiness, but a kind of fright.

Xiaoqu has lived so much, and only once did he not resist after being treated simply and roughly, and he felt quite good, that is, Li Tangni's confession when a sneaker smashed out.

Getting back to the point, out of politeness, after parrying indiscriminately for more than ten minutes, Qu Nanxiu, who was sweating all his head, fled, thinking to himself why so many people don't sleep at night?

He quickly withdrew the group, but the screen was still clean and refreshing, and it looked comfortable!

At the same time, he thought again, will Li Tangni go to chat online?

I don't know what she looks like when she speaks online. She's not going to post on the Internet, is she? That's okay, those guys have to say a lot of unseemly things!

Don't worry about it anymore.

It's okay, if she had posted a video, there would have been no one to speak, because everyone's keyboards would have to be drowned.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

I received a text message from my girlfriend, just three words: "What are you doing?"

Qu Nanxiu doesn't understand these three words every time, what can he do with this? It's better to send something useful, such as "I miss you" and the like, so that people feel comfortable listening to it, anyway, it's just three words, and it doesn't take much effort.

In fact, he didn't know that behind every sentence of "what are you doing", there was a sentence "I miss you", but Li Tangni didn't want to say it so bluntly.

Xiaoqu remembered the thrilling "adventure" just now, and hurriedly covered it up and said, "It's nothing, I'm about to sleep." ”

In fact, he didn't know that behind every sentence of "what did you do", there was a sentence "it's about your".

"Oh," Li Tangni replied with some disappointment, "Then I'll sleep too." ”
