Chapter 364: The Seahorse Effect

His voice was so excited that everyone was stunned.

When everyone turned their heads to look at him, they saw his sweaty face and trembling lips.

"Eh, what's that, uncle, don't get excited, if you have something to say slowly, we must all believe you, right, Gao Wei?" Zhang Qiang persuaded Ge Yulong with some embarrassment, and looked at me as he spoke.

I also nodded, looking at the secret keeper Ge Yulong as friendly as possible: "That's right, we are on your side. So can you tell us more about how you discovered those secrets that we didn't know? ”

Ge Yulong gasped for breath, and it took a long time to calm down his emotions, and his eyes stayed on us for a long time before nodding slightly.

"Well, I'll tell you something, the truth I know, the truth about this world!" He looked at me solemnly, and his expression didn't look like he was joking at all.

"Okay, you say, let's listen!" I nodded at him.

"You ...... Don't you realize that there are many doubts in this world? Maybe it's just a fleeting image in your daily life, or maybe it's just a small thought that flashes through your mind. Maybe you didn't pay attention to it at all, or you noticed something that you took for granted, and just ignored it. Aren't there many such things in the real world? But why do you think it's all normal? Ge Yulong's eye sockets were blue and sunken, and his cheeks were deeply sunken due to the long-term failure to eat on time, looking like a skeleton covered with human skin.

At this time, he looked at us with that almost crazy look, which made people feel a burst of hair in their hearts.

"For example?" Du Deming was also infected by his emotions, and asked involuntarily.

"For example, when you have never been to a place at all, when you first come there, it seems to have a sense of déjà vu. For example, if something never happened, but when it didn't happen or is happening, you can clearly tell every detail of it, and then what happens turns out that the details you are talking about are exactly the same as the thing itself. It's as if these things appeared in a dream you had many years ago, or when you were walking on the road many years ago, a thought that accidentally flashed through your mind has really become a reality. You tell yourself over and over again with your own intellect that these things are definitely happening for the first time, but that familiar feeling can't make your heart fully believe it. But...... We humans are so busy that even when we find out about these strange and inexplicable things, we still forcibly use our so-called reason to suppress them. But haven't any of you ever thought that maybe it is this habitual thinking of human beings that misses a lot of important information? These may be some of the flaws in this false world! Well, have any of these things that I am talking about ever happened to you? Think about it! ”

After saying that, a knowing smile appeared on his thin and blue face, and his eyes looked straight at the six of us.

"This ...... When you say that, it seems that such a thing has happened!! Du Deming lowered his head and thought for two seconds, and suddenly said in a very certain tone: "I remember, for example, when I went to college on my first day, I saw the huge red banner hanging at the school gate, and suddenly I had the illusion that I had seen it before. It was my first time at the school, but I already knew all the terrain of the school, including the direction of the main building, the location of the academic halls, and the location of the library...... Even the classmates I had just met on the first day, I looked at them as if I had known them for many years! But you say, "How is that possible?" I had been in a martial arts school all the time, and I had never been to the university I was studying at all. Reason told me that it might be my delusion, maybe it was a coincidence, so I forcibly ignored everything that was wrong, after all, it wasn't a big deal. But after that, I was always a little concerned about it. Occasionally, I recall that incident, but now that I hear you talk about it, I feel that this incident is a bit similar to what you said. ”

"Actually, I had a similar experience!" Situ Cao bit her lip, and after she glanced at a few of us, she hesitated and said, "In my memory, Grandma Zhou, the next-door neighbor, died when I was three or four years old. I still vividly remember that it was a summer night with thunder and lightning and pouring rain, and the uncle next door came to knock on my door, as if Grandma Zhou was out of order, and asked us to help call an ambulance. Then the ambulance came, but she was already dying. The uncles, aunts, uncles and aunts next door cried heartbreakingly, and I was very curious, so I opened the crack in the door and looked outside, just in time to see Grandma Zhou, who had been carried out with a white cloth. I was so impressed by this event that it became a nightmare for me for many years. After all, I was so young at that time, and when I saw someone else pass away, my memory was naturally very clear. However, just a month ago......"

A few traces of panic suddenly flashed in Situ Cao's eyes, as if the terrible past that had been sealed for many years had been awakened, and she said in a somewhat trembling voice: "I went back to my hometown to visit relatives, and when I was walking on the road, I saw Grandma Zhou who should have been dead for many years in my memory without warning!" As far as I can remember, she must have been dead for many years, but now she was very real in front of me, still talking and laughing with a woman in her early forties next to her. Do you know how I felt? I began to wonder what was going on with my memory, and I still can't figure it out. ”

"When you say that, something similar has actually happened to me." Zhang Qiang rarely didn't joke, he said and looked at Wang Yi: "Wang Yi, what about you?" Have you ever had an experience similar to what they just said? ”

Wang Yi was slightly stunned, then nodded, but didn't say anything more.

The comments of netizens I saw on a certain blog before flashed in my mind, and the subtle sense of familiarity that arose in my heart at that time.

I glanced at Wang Yi lightly, and then turned my gaze to Zhang Qiang: "Actually, not long ago, I had already discovered Ge ...... The kind of phenomenon that Mr. Ge mentioned, I later looked it up on the Internet. It's as if the technical term for it is called 'déjà vu' or 'hippocampal effect'. It means that the feeling of déjà vu that we produce is nothing more than an illusion of the interaction between the perceptual and memory systems of the brain. But in fact...... So far, this remains an unsolved mystery, and there are many opinions, but no satisfactory explanation has been found. ”

"That's right! That's it! The answer is already so obvious, are you still not clear? As if hearing the answer he wanted, Ge Yulong's face showed a very excited look, and like a crazy missionary, he gently spit out a few words in a demagogic voice: "We, the memories of all of us, have been tampered with a long time ago!" ”
