Chapter 932: A Life of Stitching
"So what do you mean by "memories are different from others"?
"It's my whole life." Yan Zhichun said, "It's not a difference in one thing or one detail...... It's a chaotic difference over many years......"
"This ......," Dr. Zhao lowered his head and pondered for a while after hearing this, and quickly frowned, "It's true that I haven't heard of this situation in the real world, but that doesn't mean that it can't be explained. ”
"Can this also be explained by medical knowledge......?"
"It's not medical knowledge." Doctor Zhao sighed and said, "Miss, whether you believe it or not, the memories in all of our minds are all fake now. ”
"Ah......?" Yan Zhichun and Jiang Ruoxue were puzzled at the same time, "It's all fake?!" ”
"No, no, no......" Dr. Zhao smiled, "Maybe I'm talking too scary, but that's the way it is, it seems that our brain helps us remember a lot of things, it's like a library that stores a lot of our memories, but the reality is that every brain has errors when storing information, and there is some unimportant information, or information that has not been observed by us, and the brain will subconsciously ignore it." ”
"...... error?" Yan Zhichun nodded, "Then how big is the range of this kind of error?" ”
"Just small details." "What's interesting is that when we re-extract these memories, the brain will re-make them according to the context, logic, and other factors, so that the memories become complete. ”
"What......?" Yan Zhichun was slightly stunned, "......Are you saying that the brain has the ability to "self-repair" for broken memories?" ”
"Yes, 'self-healing,' that's a good word." Dr. Zhao smiled, "In fact, the so-called "Mandela effect" is that the human brain constantly rewrites the memories of the past according to the existing information and the events of recent years, so that many people think that their memories are confused, but in fact, most people in the world have wrong memories, but the degree of error is different. ”
"This is too abstract...... Yan Zhichun said, "you mean that all people have no way to trust their own memories...... What's the difference between this and a madman? ”
"No, no, no......" Doctor Zhao quickly shook his head after hearing this, "Miss, you have the opposite view, it is precisely because our brains can repair memories that this will ensure that we do not become crazy." ”
"How do you say ......?"
"Hmm...... Let me give you an example. Dr. Zhao looked at the can next to him and said, "I clearly remember that I took the can from the shelf, but the shelf has a total of five layers, and I only remember that the can is in the middle, but I forget whether it is the second, third, or fourth layer." Is that easy for you to understand? ”
"Hmm." Yan Zhichun nodded, "I can understand this, you only remember to go to get the cans yourself, but you didn't carefully remember the location of the cans." ”
"Yes." Dr. Zhao laughs, "It's possible that my brain will tell me that this can is on the third floor of the shelf when I think back to it a long, long time later." But in fact, it doesn't matter if the can is placed on the third layer or not, it just makes this memory complete. This is the "reason" that our brains give us. ”
"I still don't understand ......," Yan Zhichun slowly frowned, "If my brain doesn't repair this layer of information, will there be any consequences?" ”
"Of course." Dr. Zhao replied, "If our brain is a sophisticated computer, if we lose the location information of the shelf, whenever the brain recalls it, it will only tell you, "You took the can from the void," because you didn't remember the location, and your brain didn't remember it, and if it couldn't make up a reasonable reason, it could only tell you that it was "void" or "unknown", which sounds like a buggy computer game." Every time you read such a mutilated memory, you will feel like you are crazy. ”
Dr. Zhao's example is very simple, which made Yan Zhichun understand the principle of "memory restoration" and even understand some things that happened to him.
"I seem to ......understand," Yan Zhichun said, "Because my memory has a lot of gaps, so in order to keep me from going crazy, my brain forcibly stitched these memories together, although it looks very confusing, but at least it makes it reasonable...... Otherwise, I'll just remember myself constantly shuttling through the Void......"
She narrowed her eyes slowly, because Qinglong seemed to have said something similar in her memory, but no one expected that a madman like Qinglong would casually tell the truth.
"I guess that's the only way to explain it......?" "I don't know exactly what happened to you, but it's entirely possible that your memory is confused, especially in some details......
"It's not a matter of the details anymore." Yan Zhichun interrupted, "Doctor Zhao, what is the most exaggerated restoration you have ever heard?" ”
"I've seen people forget that their family members exist." "What kind of memories the brain is able to repair depends entirely on your needs. Some post-traumatic conditions can also cause the brain to directly "repair" painful memories, the principle is the same, each of our brains is "alive", it will be repaired according to different situations, or different states of the person. ”
Yan Zhichun felt that the doctor's ability in front of him was indeed excellent, but it was a pity that he despised him at first.
"I see...... Yan Zhichun nodded after hearing this, "Thank you...... Dr. Zhao. ”
Now she felt as if she had connected all those chaotic memories, including the time she found her body in the Aries office......
At that time, the words of the white sheep made her care again:
"Why are you ...... now?"
It stands to reason that he was "copied" earlier for some reason, which caused him to see his corpse, and it was beyond Aries' expectations, so the other party said this.
Not only does this sentence feel strange, but it is also strange that Aries said "There is nothing here, you are wrong" several times in succession, why did Aries tell such a ridiculous lie when there were corpses there?
He's an Aries after all.
On closer thought, this must have been a hint he wanted to pass on to his brain.
Unfortunately, this hint did not work, because the sight of his own corpse was really impressive.
Even if she didn't remember anything else in the room, she would remember her body lying there, so her brain didn't fix the scene.
"If I can repair it normally, I will connect the memories together......" Yan Zhichun muttered to himself, "If I can't repair it...... You will feel like you are "shaking" for a moment...... It must be so......"
As everyone knows, while a few people were chatting, Chu Tianqiu was leaning against the door, listening thoughtfully to the conversation in the room.
