Chapter 63: Mind Training?
Chapter 63: Mind Training?
After leaving Tang Baona's community, Xiang Kun did not call Didi immediately, but walked slowly on the road.
It had been a while since he had been "patrolling" the streets in a busy area at night, and even if it was close to 12 o'clock, many restaurants, convenience stores, and snack bars in the vicinity were still open, and there were also food delivery boys and pedestrians who had just returned from entertainment or were about to go to entertainment on the roadside.
During this time, after targeted training and several mutations, his sensory ability has been greatly improved, and his brain's ability to process this information has also improved by leaps and bounds.
It's as if now, walking through the streets, his mind relies on various information from his senses of sight, hearing, and smell, and constructs and imagines a hologram centered on him and within ten meters in diameter around him.
Of course, there are still many details of the gap between the imagined image and the reality, but it is enough for him to judge the surrounding situation.
And when he sees someone on the road, he will subconsciously judge the other party's occupation and possible destination as quickly as possible.
For example, the little brother who staggered past him just now, wearing a white short shirt and dark suit trousers, the degree of sweat on his body indicates that he should be outdoors all day today, so it is likely that he is a salesman who needs to run around. The smell of alcohol and barbecue indicates that he should have just finished skewering with friends or colleagues and is now going home.
It took just over 2 seconds to make this judgment.
Of course, Xiang Kun didn't dare to be sure that his judgment must be correct, anyway, this was just his initial "scanning" of the surrounding environment and people, just like radar, only obvious abnormalities would attract his attention.
He believes that as his targeted training intensifies, and the number of times he drinks blood, his body continues to mutate, and his judgment speed and accuracy will further improve.
If he heard Xia Libing's first judgment on him - "the vigilance is relatively strong", he would definitely agree with it.
He does have a strong sense of vigilance, especially after the mutation.
Vigilance comes from insecurity, and the root of insecurity is the unknown and uncertainty.
After knowing that he could guide the direction of mutation after drinking blood through targeted training, Xiang Kun continued to strengthen his sensory ability, as well as his ability to quickly process and judge sensory information, in order to obtain more information, reduce the "unknown" of the surrounding environment, and keep himself in an environment that can be controlled and understood at all times.
But the real "unknown" is not outside, but inside him.
Compared with the collection of information from the outside world, Xiang Kun's insecurity comes more from his own body.
This body, which is constantly changing, surpasses too many ordinary people, and has too many "unknowns" and "uncertainties".
Even if Xiang Kun has recorded a large number of data on body changes, summarized the laws of a large number of changes, and even used targeted training to guide the direction of change, and made a "vampire mutation model", in fact, he still knows very little about the cause of the mutation in his body, and he doesn't know where this mutation will eventually lead him.
If he can, Xiang Kun actually hopes to cooperate with some authoritative medical institutions and research institutions.
But no similar "cases" were found on the Internet, and no relevant information was found, which made Xiang Kun temporarily dispel this idea.
After collecting the gray powder from his body tissues, he also thought about sending the samples to some external laboratories for testing, and a series of infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, XRD, and elemental analysis were done, and the results were almost available.
But he was worried that if it was detected as a known and common substance, it would be fine, but if it was something special and strange, it would probably expose his secret in advance and cause trouble.
He also thought about simply going to graduate school in biology and studying himself on his own, and he could win an award or something in the future......
However, this idea was quickly rejected, his current situation was not suitable for studying with others, and for him to be a mutation cycle in 5-6 days, this learning process may be too long.
Self-study?
In fact, since the beginning of mutation, he has been reading a lot of basic courses in medicine and biology and various related cutting-edge information, in order to find theories and methods to explain the mutation of his body.
It's just that those contents are too superficial, and it's okay to apply them to ordinary people, but they don't work for him.
So when he met Professor Li, he talked a lot, and when he heard Tang Baona say that Yang Zhener worked in a pharmaceutical company and had a master's degree from a medical university at night, he immediately agreed to come over and play cards together, hoping to know which direction he should go to study through exchanges with these "professionals".
Although Yang Zhen'er is a financial student, Xia Libing is a graduate student in psychiatry and psychology, tonight's communication did not achieve the expected purpose, but playing cards and chatting with the three girls made him feel that he had returned to a trace of normal life, and he felt that this was still beneficial to his psychological adjustment.
And in the evening, under his deliberate guidance, they talked about some superpowers, vampires, and mutation movies, such as Scarlett Johansson's "Super Body".
It's about the process of the heroine's brain development soaring to 100% and becoming a superhuman existence after taking medicine, of course, the issue of "ordinary people's brains only develop 10%" has been refuted in many articles, which is.
But what is certain is that for many people, the brain's potential is not fully stimulated.
As for Xiang Kun, he has discovered that his brain, or thinking ability, is actually affected by "mutation".
In the beginning, it was just that the concentration was better, the mental state was better, the memory was better, and the efficiency of reading and thinking was higher, which was related to the overall physical condition, but it didn't say anything.
However, with the continuous improvement of his sensory ability, the brain's ability to process information has a bottleneck, so he has carried out targeted training.
These enhancements to sensory information processing are actually the evolution of the brain's capabilities.
Xiang Kun couldn't help but think that through targeted training, it should be no problem to make memory better, computing power stronger, and reaction speed faster - because this has actually happened.
He can find ways to make himself "smarter" and more capable of learning, so that he can grab more knowledge to understand and study his own variations.
But at the same time...... Is there a way for him to let the brain evolve some functions that it didn't originally have through mutation through the training of the mind?
Thinking of this, Xiang Kun stopped, didn't call Didi, and directly stopped a taxi to go home.
Although reason told him that this kind of thinking was very nonsense, and the probability was very low, but since such nonsense had already happened to him, maybe there would be a surprise when he tried it?
So when he got home, he closed the doors and windows, didn't turn on the air conditioner, didn't turn on the fan, and ensured that there was no big airflow in the house.
Then place a tissue on the table, sit upright at the table, and stare at the paper, imagining how to control its movement.
However, after staring for a while, he found that he always involuntarily changed the focus, narrowed his gaze, and even clearly saw the texture on the tissue.
The smell of paper towels is also very clearly transmitted to the brain.
After staring at it for a long time, the consciousness began to diverge uncontrollably, and even subconsciously began to calculate the size, thickness, and weight of the paper, and judge the pulp raw materials and possible origins according to the smell......
Quickly shook his head, cleared these thoughts, and returned his attention to "moving it".
Xiang Kun sat in front of the tissue for more than eight hours, from early morning until the sun rose, his eyes were fixed on the tissue, but the tissue still did not move.
He is not discouraged by this, this is just "training", it depends on whether it has an effect, and he has to wait until after drinking blood.
Because of the whim last night, Xiang Kun sat in front of a tissue for more than sixteen hours, only getting up and moving for a few minutes in the middle and drinking some water.
It may seem like a simple process, but it's actually much more painful than sixteen hours of physical, muscular, or sensory training.
At seven o'clock in the evening, when the hunger pang came, Xiang Kun withdrew his gaze from the paper towel and went to the kitchen, where he fetched two rabbits to drink blood - the two meat rabbits that he had injected with his own blood, but from the observations, they did not show any tendency to mutate.
This time, he naturally didn't swallow stones anymore and endured sleepiness, cleaned up the garbage, cleaned up the rabbit meat, put it in the refrigerator, and went straight to bed to sleep.
When Xiang Kun woke up at 8:43 p.m. the next night, his first reaction was to run to the table in the living room, staring at the paper towel on the table, trying to move it with his "mind".
Twenty minutes later, however, the tissue remained unmoved.
Xiang Kun even vaguely felt that the texture on the tissue constituted a smile, and he was opening his mouth to laugh at him, which was a naked mockery.
Xiang Kun sighed, a faint air flow came out of his mouth, disturbed the paper towel on the table, fluttered leisurely, and then slowly fell to the ground along the smooth tabletop.
Riding things in the air with your mind? Sure enough, it's too much to think about!
