Chapter 9 Spiritual Injections
The sultry afternoon sun softened the asphalt road, and the heat was unbearable, only knowing that it was chirping hard.
In the "Fuge Internet Cafe", the air conditioning is turned on to the maximum, and at the same time, the exhaust air is also pumping the air with high tar content, and it seems that every Internet café cannot avoid the smell of smoke.
Bai Meng sat in front of a machine with headphones, staring at the screen motionlessly with his eyes, and the momentum was like a hatred for the monitor, and he wanted to burst the LCD before stopping.
A young man next to him had just finished crossing the line of fire, entered a room and waited for it to begin. When I saw Bai Meng's focused expression, my hands were not on the mouse and keyboard, I wasn't playing a game, so I could only watch a video!
What video to watch? This young man is also often soaked in Internet cafes, and suddenly understood what kind of video can make a man so focused, hehe smiled and said: "Which teacher has a new work, buddy, you pass the seeds to me." ”
As he spoke, he leaned his head over, but Bai Meng seemed to be unaware, still staring at the screen, not noticing his movements at all.
"Damn, a bunch of foreign men in clothes! You can be so serious about this! The young man looked at the white screen expectantly, but instead of seeing the wonderful battle he had imagined, it seemed to be a video of an English debate, and he cried out in dissatisfaction.
Bai Meng turned his head and smiled at him, and then stared at the screen again.
The young man said disdainfully: "Look at what is so good about this thing, buddy, leave an email, and I will pass on a few seeds to you." ”
Bai Meng stared at the video, and at the same time quietly opened QQ, pointed out his QQ number to the young man, and indifferently typed a line of words: "The landlord is a good man and has a safe life." ”
The young man saw that he was really a fellow believer, and sent hundreds of seeds from his treasure to Bai Meng, these high-quality resources that he had carefully calculated, mainly in Japan and South Korea, supplemented by fanatical European and American styles, to ensure that people were energetic.
At this time, the game started, and he didn't pay attention to Bai Meng next to him.
Seeing a reminder of receiving a new email popping up in the lower right corner, Bai Meng smiled knowingly, tilted his head to see that the young man had already entered the battle, the combat level was very high, a small pistol could kill all sides, and his expression was more focused than him, Bai Meng was embarrassed to thank him for bothering him, so he turned back and continued to watch his video.
Of course, the main purpose of his coming to the Internet café is to ask for seeds, no, not to ask for seeds, he is here to do scientific experiments!
It turned out that after Bai Meng found out that he could memorize the English manuscript of "I Have a Dream" in full text, he pondered for a night, ruled out all possibilities, and attributed the reason to the first-order spiritual injection.
When he listened to Li Ling's speech, it was not half an hour before the end of the drug's effect, because he didn't feel anything after taking the first-order spiritual injection, so he forgot about this matter, and concentrated on studying the speech with Li Ling, and didn't think about anything.
But the next day, when he encountered Liu Hong in the District People's Hospital about to jump off the building, Bai Meng found that he blurted out English sentences without thinking, and he was really surprised and delighted, and then he thought that it might be the first-order spiritual injection that worked.
He had guessed what the so-called spirit was, and after this incident, he thought it should be the ability to remember. He originally had a good memory, but he didn't reach the level of memorization.
But after listening to a speech, you can never forget it, and not only do you memorize it backwards, jump your back, cross your back, and come casually, and memorize and understand all the words in it, such a memory, it is said to be innate, it is simply impossible, and the only possibility is the effect of the injection after enhancing the spirit.
In order to confirm, he deliberately went to the Internet café and listened to a piece of CNN news, but he heard it in a mess, he didn't know what it meant, and after listening to it, he couldn't remember anything.
After that, he found another English movie, compared the Chinese and English versions and watched them separately, and found that Chinese could recall one or two classic sentences, and English did not have any impression at all.
From this, he determined that this memory was not his own ability, but the effect of the enhancement of the first-order spiritual injection.
Analyzing this, he was a little disappointed because the spiritual enhancement he had originally thought would gain superpowers did not happen.
But it's not bad to think about a strong memory, at least it's very useful when learning the language, learn English by yourself, and then learn French, German, Italian, Japanese, with such a super memory, it shouldn't take too much effort, and when you meet a foreigner again, you won't be bullied by people like Jiang Di!
Bai Meng thinks that he is not a stingy person, but that day in Anguo was forced by Jiang Di to perform medical skills in public, and the fundamental reason was that he and Mr. Hill could not communicate directly, so he had to ask Jiang Di.
Although I got along with them quite happily later, and I have been worried about Little Annie's condition, Bai Meng has always remembered the feeling of grievance that made no sense at that time.
In order to prevent such a scene from happening again, Bai Meng decided to study English hard, make good use of the super memory brought by the injection, and see who can laugh at himself for it in the future!
Now that he has decided to do it, he has to make the most of the half-hour enhancement time that comes with each injection. His goal is to focus on application, not to cope with exams, so listening and speaking skills are the most important, and oral communication is the most important.
Writing out this goal, he found himself a study material that was an English TV program.
The pronunciation of the TV host is naturally standard, and the speed and grammar of the speech can also be understood by the largest number of people on the basis of casual speaking, which is in line with the goals of the application.
At the same time, they speak very fast!
One reinforcement is only half an hour, and since it is unforgettable, the more content you hear per unit of time, the more you remember, and the more efficient you learn.
Bai Meng was very proud of his cleverness, he followed this requirement, Baidu checked the fastest English program, so he found the English debate that the young man saw just now.
Opening the show, skipping all the commercials and boring blank time, Bai Meng intercepted more than half an hour of intensive conversations, so as to ensure the highest efficiency of his learning.
After that, he quietly took a first-order spiritual injection, because this injection did not feel an obvious strengthening effect, and Bai Meng did not know when it began to take effect, in order to save the medicinal power, from after the injection, he began to stare at the screen wildly, and at the same time pricked up his ears not to miss a word he heard.
CNN's primary audience is U.S. residents. The announcer's style is relaxed and active, with strong appeal, and the broadcast is colloquial, with a speech rate of 180 words per minute.
Bai Meng's interception was all high-speed dialogue, most of the time above this speed, and it was bombarded with about 6,000 words in thirty minutes.
Although he was dizzy and his ears were sore and his eyes were dry, his mood was extremely happy.
I have a super memory that I have never forgotten, and I have mastered a lot of spoken language in this half an hour, which is not equivalent to other people's years of desperate study?
There are so many people in the world who learn English, how many of them can become announcers? He proudly opened the Chinese translation of the video just now, ready to check his learning results.
Of course, the way to check is to translate English and read it out against Chinese, and after mastering "I Have a Dream", Bai Meng feels that this goal should be able to be accomplished.
Clearing his throat at the documents and looking at a screen of Chinese characters, Bai Meng racked his brains and failed to type them into English.
"What's the matter, didn't I know both Chinese and English yesterday?"
He grabbed his hair depressedly, thinking that maybe this speed was too fast, too much for himself, so he withdrew a request, found the English version, and prepared to translate it into Chinese.
With his eyes wide open, Bai Meng saw from the beginning to the end, and found that this kind of words knew him, but he didn't know them at all, those words that had appeared in "I Have a Dream" were recognized, but the other words were still unfamiliar ghost symbols.
He couldn't even read, let alone translate into Chinese.
Bai Meng was stunned and collapsed on the chair, unable to understand that something was wrong.
It is true that he did take a first-order spiritual injection that day to memorize the entire speech, which Bai Meng is very sure of, on his own, it is impossible to memorize English, Chinese, and pronunciation on the basis of listening to it once.
But today, I also took a first-order spiritual injection, why didn't I write it down at all?
The ears of the Internet café were very uncomfortable to wear on his head, and Bai Meng grabbed them and kept wondering what was wrong.
The video is not clear enough? Talking too fast? Not loud enough? Didn't eat enough today?
But no matter how fast the speed is, if the memory is enhanced, at least it can be memorized a little, how can it be the same as the situation that I used to regard English as a natural danger and couldn't listen to my brain at all.
His eyes suddenly lit up: Could it be that the first-order spiritual injection, enhancing the spirit, does not mean enhancing memory?
So what is it?
He couldn't figure it out again, the whole thing was in a quagmire, and he couldn't figure out a clue for a while.
"What's the matter, buddy, the film I gave you isn't good?"
The young man next to him finished another game, and just saw Bai Meng's sad face, and asked curiously.
"No......" Bai Meng groaned, he had a million questions in his heart, but the injection was his biggest secret, and he couldn't tell anyone anyway.
The young man said: "Are you jealous of the happy life of the male actors?" ”
"Uh, how so?" Bai Meng smiled weakly.
"Don't be embarrassed to admit it, whoever sees so many beautiful women being inserted by other people, but they only have two hands, will be jealous. So let's stop looking at it for the time being, let's shoot in a different way, right? He gestured to Crossfire, where he was playing.
"I won't." Bai Meng's heart also moved, but he thought of playing a game to vent, but it was not bad.
"It's okay, I'll bring you here, brother, this golden technology, I promise to let you kill cool!"
The young man shook his hair.
Bai Meng entered the game according to his instructions, and the weapon assigned in the first game was the small pistol that the young man had just used, as soon as he held this gun, he rushed up with his teammates, and it seemed that he naturally knew how to use it, and he killed people with neat headshots.
Seeing Bai Meng's movements, the young man was dissatisfied: "You still say you can't, in fact, you are also a master." ”
Bai Meng was stunned, it was indeed the first time he had played this game, why did he use this gun in his own hands?
The first game went well, and in the second game, they had enough money to change the submachine gun, and Bai Meng would not use it, and he would not play as well as a small pistol.
Instead of being depressed, he laughed happily, an idea flashed through his mind, he pushed the keyboard, stood up and said, "I know, I understand what spirit is!" ”
The sudden movement startled the young man, and he said with disdain: "I see that you are not spiritual, but nervous!" ”
Bai Meng didn't care, and said mysteriously: "It's really the first time I've played this game, but I'm going to become a master right away." ”
