In this way, Lina quickly adapted to her role in the bar.

At least, in just one week, she memorized a lot of service words, and of course, the customers here were mixed and mixed, and she also learned a lot of swearing.

Although Wang Xin kept reminding her, there was no way to do it, learning a country's language and learning dirty work was one of the shortcuts.

Lina's arrival liberated Zhong Yuan to a certain extent. Although the bar is 200 square meters, except for sofas, play equipment, bars, toilets, and warehouses, there is not much place where guests can really sit, and it is enough for two people.

No, Zhong Yuan cleared out a place next to the bar, put a screen, put some movies, or broadcast some ball games.

At noon that day, Zhong Yuan was having lunch when the phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, and he frowned, because he didn't have many friends, and he knew the phone number, who would it be? He hesitated, but picked it up.

"Hey, hello."

"Hello, are you Mr. Zhong Yuan?" On the other side of the phone was an old-sounding but sonorous voice.

Seeing that the other party knew himself, Zhong Yuan asked more deeply: "I am, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

"Hehe, my surname is Bai, I do some research work, I want to meet with Mr. Zhong to talk about something, I don't know when you have time?"

"We shouldn't know each other, I don't know what Mr. Bai asked me to talk about? Also, how did you know my number? ”

"Don't doubt it, that's the case, I watched a surveillance video of someone saving a small child in front of a truck......" The professor paused: "That's you, right?" ”

"Ahh Zhong Yuan had a hunch that things were not simple, this person was engaged in research, not a traffic policeman, he looked at the video and found himself, it must not be as simple as dealing with an accident, not to mention, there was no accident at all that day.

Zhong Yuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "It's me, you're looking for me, is this for?" ”

"Yes, I'm at Ueshima Coffee in the city center right now, if it's convenient, come and sit down?"

"Okay, I'll be right there!"

Zhong Yuan came to the coffee shop, there was only one customer inside, he walked over, and the man also waved to him. Zhong Yuan stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, I'm Zhong Yuan, you must be Mr. Bai." ”

"My surname is Bai, sit down."

After shaking hands, Zhong Yuan sat down and looked carefully at the old man in front of him, who was also looking at him.

The old man was full of white hair, and he looked like he should be about seventy years old, but he was in good spirits, and he didn't look old at all. With a pair of glasses and a straight suit, he reveals a gentle and elegant temperament.

He didn't give Zhong Yuan much time to observe him, but said softly: "Mr. Zhong, I came to you to find out the specific situation of the people you saved that day. ”

"Ah, okay." Zhong Yuan carefully recounted the events of that day from beginning to end, including the images that flashed in his mind, and what happened in the bar that Mr. Bai didn't know.

Old Mr. Bai nodded while listening, when Zhong Yuan finished speaking, his eyes began to become deep, the corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally, and his fingers began to tremble, it could be seen that the old man was very excited, but he restrained his emotions and asked, "So, do you have any views on these two things?" ”

Zhong Yuan saw his excitement, although he also had a lot of questions, he still answered the other party's questions first: "I think this should not be a coincidence. Because I checked the information, the speed of that moment was beyond the scope of human beings. However, I'm 35 years old, and I'm pretty sure I must be an ordinary human, so I can't explain it. If you're looking for me for the same purpose as I expected, I think you'll give me an answer. ”

"What a smart young man." Mr. Bai praised in his heart. He held back his mood, took a few deep breaths, and said to Zhong Yuan: "My name is Bai Yuanshan, and I worked at the Chinese Academy of Sciences before I retired.

In addition to my own work, I also have a task of studying the origin and evolution of human beings. I've spent my life trying to find answers to the questions I envisioned, but to no avail.

I looked into the rumors on the internet, and almost all of them were fabricated until I saw your video online, and I'm glad I didn't give it all up. ”

Hearing this, Zhong Yuan's expression also began to become solemn, although he didn't know what the specific research was, but he could hear that a seventy-year-old scientist who had studied a topic for a lifetime must be unusual, and he might be related to this topic, and even, maybe an important part.

The old man's next words surprised him even more and even changed his life.

"Human beings, who have survived in the long history of evolution, have experienced many cruelties of natural selection. Up to now, the human body has basically stopped evolving, and some have even degenerated.

However, the human brain has always been a place that human beings cannot control. The development of our brains is only a pitiful fraction, and we only use 10% of our brains at most in our lifetime. If the rest of the parts are useless, will they evolve and disappear? Leaving only the useful part? However, at least for now, there is no sign of that. So, what exactly is the brain?

There are similar records in many books, and the embryonic period of human beings is like a reproduction of the wonderful process of evolution from the existence of life on earth to the evolution of human beings.

At first, the sperm and egg are like single-celled animals, then slowly become fish, then amphibians, reptiles, then mammals, and finally humans. The fetus evolves at an astonishing rate, from a fish on the 32nd day of fertilization, to a reptile after just four days, a mammal for the next two days, and a human for the next two days.

In the primeval era, it took hundreds of millions of years for fish to evolve into mammals on Earth, and it only took a week for fetuses to evolve dramatically from fish to humans.

Man, only the brain completely surpasses other animals, so what is the untapped part? Will we have memories of ancient times in our minds? Could it be that it retains some of the best abilities in the evolutionary process? ”

Bai Lao paused and looked at Zhong Yuan, who was full of surprise.

Zhong Yuan didn't relax for a long time, it wasn't that his thinking couldn't keep up, but Mr. Bai's words made him see a new world that he had never heard of.

After a while, Zhong Yuan asked timidly: "You, this is what you are studying?" How to develop the potential of the brain, or how to awaken ancient memories in the human brain? ”

"Nope." Bai Lao continued: "It's not just that. What I want to do is to make these abilities accessible to human beings, first of all, to give them the freedom to control what's in their heads.

You know, when children are about 10 months old, they can swim on their own when they are thrown into the water, but when they grow up, they can't swim at all if they don't learn.

There are many explanations for this, and we can also think that it is the child who evokes his memories as a fish or an amphibian. We have this ability in our own right, but we forget it over time. In other words, we may have sealed many of the evolutionary abilities we originally possessed in the depths of the brain.

I've spent most of my life working on this, and now that I'm in my seventies, even my own son thinks my subject is ridiculous.

I thought this research would be interrupted until I found you. The images that flash in your mind may be the overlap between the memories in your brain and the pictures you know in real life, and you do react in ways that ordinary people can't. It's just that you can't control it yet, and you can't do whatever you want. ”

This sounded like a fantasy, but, for some reason, Zhong Yuan showed a very strong interest in the old man's words. Perhaps, every man has a heroic dream in his heart, and perhaps, no matter how simple and unpretentious a man is, he also has an uneasy heart. He asked the old man, "What do you need me to do?" ”

"Haha." The old man smiled: "I hope you can come back to Beijing with me and come to my research institute." I'll show you what I've been working on all my life, and see if I can help you develop the abilities hidden in your brain. However, I also need you to think clearly, we are on a path that no one has taken, no one will support our ideas, and even be treated as a weirdo.

This is my ideal, it has nothing to do with you, you can go on with your life. But even if there is a glimmer of hope, I will not give up, and now, you have made that hope no longer dim. Although I am engaged in science, I also believe in fate, and meeting you at this age made me feel a little providence. I've always wanted to find a successor to keep this thing going, and I hope that this person is your ......."
