Professor Chen stood in front of the window of the ward, watching the girl sitting quietly on the hospital bed, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

After three days of recovery, she was finally able to sit up, but what people couldn't figure out was, was she really human?

Because she has not eaten or drunk at all for the past few days, but she has been able to maintain normal life activities. To be precise, her life index is stronger than that of a healthy person.

In fact, except for not eating or drinking, her behaviors and characteristics are exactly the same as ordinary people.

In addition, the skin looks soft, but it is actually very hard, and it is incomprehensible that no knife can cut it.

In the interior of the ward, the head nurse was with several people, speaking various languages, trying to communicate with her.

But no matter how hard they tried, the maiden seemed to be out of sight of them, and her gaze always swept in front of them, and then looked elsewhere.

But the only thing that is fortunate is that her eyes are obviously much brighter than three days ago.

The head nurse explained a few words to the others and told them to continue their attempt, while she herself walked outside the ward because Professor Chen was calling her.

"Is she still the same as before, completely uneating or drinking?"

"Yes, as before, we brought the food to her, and she only looked at it for a moment, then turned her gaze to other places, and had no intention of eating it at all. ”

"Are her vital signs the same as they were the other day?" Professor Chen asked again.

"Well, her vital signs are not only completely normal, but they are a little better than they were the other day. ”

"So how did you talk to her, and did she respond?"

The head nurse turned her gaze to the ward: "As you can see now, we have been trying to communicate with her since yesterday, but she is like she doesn't notice us at all, she just keeps looking around. ”

"Alas!"

Professor Chen sighed: "After learning about biology for so many years, I have never seen a human like her at all, which is really incomprehensible!"

After sighing, Professor Chen was silent for a while, and muttered, "I'm afraid that she may not be human."

The head nurse was surprised: "If she is not human, then what is she? Except for the fact that she can't cut through her skin without eating or drinking, which is incomprehensible, everything else is exactly the same as an ordinary human!"

"Don't be nervous, it's just my guess. ”

Professor Chen stood in front of the window, looked at the girl who was still doing slow movements, and instructed the head nurse: "You continue to try to communicate with her, and take more different things to test her backstand." ”

After explaining this to the head nurse, Professor Chen sighed again, then shook his head and turned to leave.

Originally, when he first met the girl, Professor Chen's heart was very excited and excited, because this may be the only ancient human in the world who has survived to modern times through freezing technology, and he will be one of the main leaders in the research of this ancient human.

But as a result, she was successfully thawed from the ice cubes and successfully resuscitated, but neither ultrasound nor cell extraction could be carried out.

Because the sound waves are inexplicably absorbed in her body, and when it comes to extracting her tissue, there is no tool that can cut through her skin.

In short, let alone research now, even Professor Chen himself has fallen into the confusion of the unknown, what should he do next, others are asking him, and he is also asking himself.

"Knock Knock"

"Please come in. ”

Professor Chen was sitting in his office, thinking about what to do next, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.

The door to the office was opened, and the head nurse walked straight in.

In fact, in the past few days, the head nurse has basically come to him once a day, mainly to report the latest situation about the girl.

"It's the head nurse, is she here to report about her? How is she doing today?"

Everything else was the same as in the past, except that she seemed to be particularly interested in words. There was a book in the things I brought with me today, and she actually took the initiative to take it, and now she is starting to read it. ”

"Is this true?" Professor Chen suddenly stood up excitedly and said, "Let's go, I'll take a look."

Professor Chen almost trotted outside the ward, and just happened to see the girl looking down at the book there, as if she could really read the contents of the book.

Professor Chen hurriedly said to the head nurse who hurriedly ran over, "Quick, you go and get some more books, she may be learning our words, we will try to let her learn more." ”

"But we haven't taught her, so how did she learn?

Professor Chen nodded: "Well, this is really possible. Her presence already makes us feel incredible, and what is so incredible about learning our words by simply reading books by herself without anyone teaching us.

In the days that followed, the head nurse stopped arranging for people to communicate with her.

Mainly because she never paid attention to anyone, and all those who communicated with her were treated as air.

Now what she does every day is to sit on the hospital bed, keep her head down, and read a book quietly, usually from morning to night, except for a little rest when she rests.

And the head nurse now takes two books with her every time she goes to her and puts them on the table next to her for her to read. But she read very quickly, and the amount of two books was not enough for her to read, and it usually only took an hour or two for her to finish both books, and the nurse had to go and get her new books again.

The head nurse was so tired when she saw that she was reading so fast, and she didn't have enough books to read.

So he got angry, hugged her all the dozens of books he had collected,-- and threw them all on the table next to her, thinking: I don't believe you can read them all today.

But the head nurse still miscalculated.

When the head nurse visited her again in the afternoon, she found that she had already read all the dozens of books she had carried over, and after she finished reading the books, she had stacked all the books neatly and stacked them on the table.

Seeing this, the head nurse couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, if my children were so fond of learning as you, Tsinghua University and Peking University would have been admitted long ago." ”

The girl didn't pay attention to the head nurse's self-talk, but still looked down at her book intently.

A few days later, as usual, the head nurse came on time to pick up the books she had read.

"I watched so much more today. I don't know when it began, but it has become a phrase that the head nurse must say every time she comes to pick up the books she has read.

"Well, indeed... Somewhat... Many. ”

"Oh, just know..... Were you talking just now?" The head nurse stayed where she was, looking at the girl sitting on the hospital bed in shock, and she was looking at herself at this time.

The girl's lips moved slightly, and she said a little unsmoothly: "It's not me, it's also.. Who?

"Oh my God! Oh no, Professor Chen. The nurse shouted, rushing out of the room and toward Professor Chen's office.

Professor Chen heard the head nurse's voice from afar, and hurriedly walked out of the office, just ready to see the head nurse running towards him.

"What's wrong? Head nurse, what's wrong?"

The head nurse panted and said, "Professor Chen,... Go and see, which ancient girl, she... She's going to be able to talk!'

"Is everything you say true?" Professor Chen asked the head nurse with an excited face.

"It's true, it's true, if you don't believe it, you can go and see it. ”

Professor Chen spread his legs and ran in the direction of the ward, while the head nurse ran after him, and the other nursing staff, when they saw this, thought that something serious had happened to the ward, and ran over.

When he arrived at the door of the ward, Professor Chen excitedly pushed open the door, walked quickly to the girl's side, and then said slowly, "Hello." ”

The girl stared at him for a moment, then replied equally slowly, "You... Good"

At this time, the ward was already crowded with people, and they were all stunned at first when they heard the girl actually speaking, but after a few seconds of silence, everyone in the ward instantly boiled.

"Oh my God! She spoke, and she spoke our language, which was incredible

"How the hell did she learn, I really want to study what her brain is all about. ”

"What a beautiful voice she has!"

"It's all quiet, it's all quiet. Professor Chan shouted to everyone, "Let me try to ask her a few questions first." ”

After hearing Professor Chen's words, everyone fell silent, because they also wanted to know more about the secrets of this mysterious ancient girl.

"What's your name?" Professor Chen asked softly at the girl.

"I don't know.... Road. The girl replied slowly.

Yes... I also wanted to know her name, but I didn't expect her to know it herself.

"What can I do?"

"Why don't we give him a name!"

"That's good.

"Okay. ”

"This one does. ”

There was another discussion in the crowd, and everyone agreed to give her a name.

"But what should I call it?"

"I don't know that, and I'm not good at names.

"Why don't you let Professor Chen take one? One person suggested.

"Okay, okay, that's all. Then everyone agreed.

"Professor Chen, what do you think? Everyone's eyes were excited, expecting Professor Chen to agree.

"Okay, then I'll give her a name!" Professor Chan smiled and readily agreed.

Professor Chen saw a lot of books neatly piled up on the table next to the girl, and pondered for a while: "Since she likes to read so much, why don't you name her Shuxiang, how about you take a look at this name?" Professor Chan turned around and asked for everyone's opinions.

"Scholarly.

"Scholarly.

"It's a nice name, let's call her scholarly. ”

"Well, then we'll call her Scholar. The crowd agreed.

"In that case, your name will be called Scholar from now on. Professor Chen faced the girl and told her name.

“... Fragrant... Fragrant. Slowly, repeatedly, the girl pronounced her name.

"Yes, scholarly. Professor Chen said affirmatively to the girl.

"Books, books. The girl suddenly rejoiced.

"It seems that you like this name a lot, that's good, we'll call you scholarly in the future. ”

"Hmm," the girl smiled and nodded happily in agreement.

'You are from that time. Oh, which dynasty did you live in?" After determining the girl's name, Professor Chen asked the girl questions.

"I don't know..... Road. The girl replied slowly.

"Then how did you get frozen?" Professor Chan questioned again.

"No.... Know... Road. The girl still only replied with these three words.

"And what do you remember?" Professor Chan asked again.

"Everything.... I don't know. The girl replied slowly.

"Could it be that it has been frozen in the ice for too long and has frozen all the memories?" Professor Chen frowned and muttered quietly.

"Why don't we go out first and let her rest more, maybe in a few days, she will be able to regain some of her memories." The head nurse saw that Professor Chen was in trouble and made suggestions to him.

Professor Chen thought to himself: I really can't ask anything if I stay here any longer, so let's go out and think about what to do first.

"Okay, that's it for today, let's go out and let her rest first. Professor Chen said to everyone, beckoning everyone to go out, so that Shuxiang could have a good rest.

After going out, Professor Chen stopped the head nurse: "You go and inform Director Zhang Ling, just say that the ancient person has been able to speak, let her come over as much as possible." ”
