Chapter 7: Mass Stupidity
Chapter 7: Mass Stupidity
At the entrance of the inpatient department, Li Ming met the old man Li who had been waiting for him for a long time. As soon as Li Ming, who was gray-haired, saw Lin Feng, he smiled and opened his arms to hug him.
"Ha, Linzi, you're really completely recovered!"
Ever since he met Lin Feng, he had asked Lin Feng to come to the medical school more than once to be his "teaching assistant", and he was the only person besides Fang Yu who knew Lin Feng's special abilities.
"There's no time for that nonsense! Now I want to grab time, Lao Li, what do I want? β
"In my office."
"Good! Let's talk as we go! Lao Li, do you believe that people with special functions exist in zΓ i? β
"Aren't you the one?"
"In this building, there should be two people with the same special functions as me! Want to see it? β
"Absolutely! But seeing so many patients here, now all the medical staff have been transferred."
"There's no need to bother with these beast-turning guys"
"Turning into a beast?"
"Let's not talk about that! I need you to call them out for a full body check-up in the name of a physical examination. β
"You act as my assistant? Are you going to do the check-up? With your hands? β
"That's right!"
Lin Feng spit out like a bead of words, and spoke very quickly, Old Man Li is also a smart person who doesn't like to talk nonsense, there is nothing superfluous in the communication between the two, and he understands Lin Feng's intention in a few words.
In Old Man Li's personal expert outpatient room, Lin Feng changed into the white coat prepared for him in advance, and there was a brand on his chest: expert assistant.
"Did you find anything?"
"If I hadn't miscalculated, some of those cancer patients who were cured would have acquired so-called special functions and other superpowers!"
"Your ability is to analyze the structure of things, find out how they work, and make microscopic adjustments to their structure. I see what you're trying to do."
"Lao Li, I'm very hungry now, very hungry"
"I understand the hunger of people who are thirsty for knowledge - now you have changed back to the state of the humanoid thinking machine that Xiao Fang said, right?"
"The situation is critical now, and only I can cope with this state!"
In Ward 302 on the third floor, Lin Feng found his target, an "old man" who looked thirty years old, but was actually sixty years old, and his medical records showed that he had liver cancer in the past. After today's abnormal change, the wrinkles on the old man's forehead disappeared, and the loose skin turned back to a healthy tightness, and he suddenly became more than thirty years younger. He is not the only one, and this is happening to cancer patients all over the world.
Under the double cover of Old Man Li and the identity of the "expert assistant", the old man lay on the bed obediently and let Lin Feng "see" him all over his body.
Fifteen minutes later, Lin Feng, who was slightly tired mentally, left the ward, and he and Old Man Li took the special elevator for medical staff and prepared to go up to the twelfth floor.
In the elevator, Old Man Li couldn't help but ask:
"What's his superpower?"
"If I didn't make a mistake in the analysis, it should be something like a vacuum slash, and I'll go out and test it for you later."
After getting out of the elevator and walking to a corner where there were no passers-by, Lin Feng raised his left hand, used his palm as a knife, and made a false slash at the shining ceiling lamp, and with a snap, the glass cover covering the surface of the lamp tube was broken, and the broken glass slags fell one after another.
This qiΔ Old Man Li was dumbfounded, but Lin Feng was disappointed, because the so-called "vacuum slash" he used his hand to make it was much less powerful than expected, but at this moment, he didn't have time to delve into it. On the patient on the twelfth floor, Lin Feng's plan was also completed very smoothly. The supernatural ability possessed by this patient is telekinesis, which allows him to move objects in the air with his mind. It's just that he is the same as the previous one, although he has a treasure trove, he doesn't know anything about it, and he let Lin Feng "copy" it in vain.
"Okay, now you've got what you want, now it's time to tell me, what do you mean by that phrase "the guy who is about to turn into a beast"? β
Lin Feng asked, "What would a normal person do if they were as hungry as the cancer patient reported on the news in the afternoon?" β
"Eat, eat desperately!"
"If this extremely hungry person loses his subjective consciousness as a human being at this time, the memory of the brain is completely eliminated and he returns to the infant state! At this time, the body is extremely hungry, and there is no food to eat around, so what will happen at that time? β
"Intelligence back to the infant state, very hungry and can't find food you want to say"
"Although human flesh is not tasty, it is also a protein that contains calories! I've personally experienced the hunger pangs that I want to swallow everything in one bite! At the time, my cravings for food were no less intense than drug addictions! At that time, I had my own will, and I could control myself not to eat people! But they are different! β
Although he knew that Lin Feng wouldn't talk nonsense, his argument still surprised Old Man Li.
"How do you think their brain's memory and consciousness are fading?"
"It's not disappearing, it's gone! Electroencephalogram! Go check the EEGs of these people! If I'm not mistaken, the EEG of all patients should be very similar to that of babies now! If the human brain is compared to a hard disk, now their brains are formatted in a high fever, their brains are now blank, and all that is left is the most instinctive desire - appetite! β
During the conversation, Lin Feng and Old Man Li went out of the inpatient department to the outpatient department, and there were still a large number of unconscious patients who were constantly sent by aid, and the existing beds in the hospital had long been insufficient, and now even the corridors of the outpatient department were full of stretchers.
Lin Feng glanced at the big clock on the outpatient desk, and the clock went to the position of half past six.
"There was less than four hours between the time that weird stargate appeared and when I suddenly felt hungry and started binge-eating! Based on this, to deduce the time when these people wake up, it is estimated that between eight and nine o'clock, these guys will gradually wake up, and at that time, this place will become a world of cannibalism! Mind you, depending on how well their muscles are strengthened, each of these guys is no less powerful than a lion! The appetite is even bigger than that of an elephant! β
Lin Feng walked towards the door as he spoke.
Old man Li didn't expect Lin Feng to leave just after saying a few words, so he hurriedly stopped him. "Xiaolin, why did you leave here? Don't you look at their EEG? Let's go and check the information and make a decision."
"There's no time! And there is no point in confirming the answer that you already know! We don't have much time to escape, and I don't have the time to argue endlessly! β
No matter which Lin Feng, he was three years ago, he is now, or he is the original him, he is not a compassionate universalist, and the dark side that has been hidden in his nature may prefer this so-called dangerous end times.
"Give you a few Jianyì, Lao Li, listen up!"
At this moment, Lin Feng was already standing at the gate of the hospital, and at this time, he no longer cared about the people around him, and said loudly to Old Man Li
"The best choice for you: don't do anything, you just need to call your wife, son and daughter-in-law and the whole family out and go to my company to gather, I have a big car there! I have already informed Fang Yu just now, and when the time comes, he will take his wife and children and leave with your family! I've thought of a place to evacuate, it's the army military base in the south! No matter what, a military base is definitely the safest place. β
"I know you want to save people! Troy was about to be ruined, Kassandra foresaw it, but no one wanted to believe it! Why is this happening? Because most of the people in the city are fools! Fools will always only believe what they want to believe. Fools in any era are the majority, and the most favorite thing for fools to do is to pull a few smart people to reduce their IQ to the same level as themselves, and then drag them to stupid death! It's called the fool's herd effect! And now here, this city, and even the world, is a Troy! β
"Lao Li, the world is about to be in chaos! If you really want to save this world, the only way is to take advantage of the time now, the whole world will act at the same time, and kill all these unconscious guys who have not let go of the mistake! But it's impossible to do! Because no one would give such an order! So, the world is about to end! β
"Lao Li, smart as you, don't be stupid! You can go in right away and tell the people inside the truth, but don't spend too much time with them! Every second counts now, I'll only be waiting for you outside for ten minutes! When the time comes, you come out immediately, and then we run as far as we can! β
Lin Feng looked at his watch, and the time was now six thirty-three o'clock.
"Six forty-five, after six forty-five, I won't wait for you anymore! Let me tell you again, Lao Li, now I only have reason and no emotion, you understand what this means. β
No matter what Old Man Li would think, Lin Feng turned around and ran directly to the car. The current Lin Feng's spirit is in a perfect state of reason, and he will never allow himself to waste any time at this critical moment.
Back in the car, Lin Feng took advantage of this time to talk to Fang Yu on the phone, and learned that he had taken his family on the way to the company. As a child to Da Lin Feng and Fang Yu, the tacit understanding between the two is not comparable to ordinary people, he said that there would be a disaster, Fang Yu immediately believed it without reservation, and made the most correct choice.
"Master, what you just said with Fang Yu on the phone, is it true?"
Just now Chen Taotao learned the truth through the phone call of GuΓ² Fangyu, although he still had a lot of doubts in his heart, but with the idea that "even if he is wrong, at most he will take the whole family out for a day", he called his family and girlfriend out.
"Do you think I'm going to make such a stupid joke?"
"Although I believe your words, Master, I always hope that you are wrong"
Chen Taotao looked at the taxis that kept driving around and were still sending "patients" to the hospital, and his face turned pale with fright when he thought that the cars were full of monsters.
"Master, is there really no way to convince the people inside to believe your opinion? Is there really no way to save the people inside? β
"Yes!"
"What's the solution?"
"One word, kill! I'm going to take action, open the door in the hospital, and kill all the unconscious guys! Even if I can't kill them all, this kind of killing of mine will definitely attract a bunch of police, even armed police with heavy weapons! With them present, the remaining monsters can be easily suppressed even if they wake up! But do you think I'll do this kind of thing? I don't think you necessarily want me to do it. β
"What about the other way?"
Lin Feng didn't answer directly, and asked rhetorically: "Taotao, let me ask you, you persuaded your parents, girlfriend, and people around you to almost all go smoothly, why?" β
"Because there are so many strange things happening today, in fact, everyone is a little scared! I gave a very positive answer, and they believed it. β
Lin Feng said: "That's right! But the more important reason is because they are only individuals! And not the group! β
"Groups?"
"Bringing a group of people together and the result is group stupidity! The stupidity index is directly proportional to the number of people in the group! I'll tell you what kind of trouble Old Man Li will encounter! First of all, those family members of the patients will not eat his set for now, and if what happened to you today, are you willing to believe that your parents and relatives will become monsters? β
Chen Taotao thought about it and shook his head.
"This is just the first hurdle, and there is also the fluke psychology that humans like to be an ostrich and always think in a good direction; Do more things and make more mistakes, do less things and make fewer mistakes, and don't do things and don't make mistakes; Just wait for others to come out first, and others will plant trees and I will take advantage of the speculative way"
Lin Feng paused, glanced at the outpatient department where he was far away, there was just a little commotion there, and Old Man Li's situation seemed to be very bad, he was surrounded by a group of patients' family members.
"What's more, today is a special time, at this time, there must be some clowns who love to sing high-profile who will jump out at this time, accusing Lao Sun of alarmist rumors and making trouble, and on the other hand, shouting that the doctor who saves the life and helps the injured doctor Renxin can't sing high-profile, too smart, and hesitant to look at the herd effect of the people on the side I dare to bet with you, in this hospital, Lao Li alone doesn't want to bring it out!"
Thinking of this, Lin Feng suddenly noticed that the adrenaline secretion in his body was speeding up, and just now, his stern mood fluctuated! And from the entrance of the hospital, his adrenaline secretion has been increasing! When he was full of fools and fools, the flood of love unconsciously broke through the embankment of reason, but at that time he had not noticed the changes in endocrine.
"Sure enough, my method of filtering out impurities is far less perfect than the previous one-knife cutting method! As long as it touches the scales and the situation fluctuates, the flood will automatically break the embankment and there is nothing in the first place, where to stir up dust! It is far more efficient to eliminate it directly than to suppress it at any time! β
When he was reflecting on himself, Old Man Li came back, and as Lin Feng expected, he didn't bring it out alone! Not only that, but he was almost beaten by the patient's family.
"I failed! Everyone thinks I'm alarmist! They're even saying it's a good thing, I'm talking nonsense! β
"A good thing?"
"You understand your example, tens of millions of cancer patients have been cured, and each of them has become younger in a different way, right? Some people actually say that this is a good thing! β
Old man Li said as he hammered the roof of the car hard, looking like he was almost crying.
Lin Feng was also speechless.
But Chen Taotao said: "If you miss a millimeter, you will miss a thousand miles!" Teacher Li, you have already worked hard, next, let's save ourselves first! β
Lin Feng opened the car door and pulled Old Man Li into the car, Chen Taotao immediately stepped on the accelerator, the engine roared, and the whole car drove out like an arrow.
It was 6:47 a.m., the sun had completely set, and night had fallen.
