Chapter 247: Steady
For Xiang Kun, who visited again, Aunt Yang's attitude was much better than when she met him for the first time. Since the last time they met, Professor Li and Little Apple have said good things about Xiang Kun, and she naturally has a good impression of Xiang Kun.
So Professor Li Yang was not there, and Little Apple proposed to take "Golden Flash" to the park on the edge of the community with Xiang Kun alone for a while, and she agreed.
Sitting side by side on chairs next to the park's artificial lake, Xiang Kun listened to Little Apple talk about her special sense of the "eight-armed monster" that reappeared this morning.
The reason why Xiang Kun came to find Little Apple as soon as he drank blood this time, in addition to fostering "Golden Flash" with her, there is also a very important reason - not long after he woke up this morning, he sensed the connection between Little Apple and Wood Carving through the "Eight-Armed and Eight-Eyed Wood Carving", which is similar to what he sensed on the night of his successful "Royal Electric Flight".
Obviously, after Xiang Kun's evolution of drinking blood this time, the ability "support" he provided to Little Apple became stronger again.
So he wanted to talk to Apple, and see how her perception had changed this morning.
"Uncle Xiang, I think this time I have a clearer sense of that monster, I can count his total of eight arms, and eight eyes. I didn't 'see' it, but I just knew that it was a bit hard to describe......"
No need to describe, I can understand it.
Xiang Kun asked, "Did that monster communicate with you, and what other feelings did you have besides perceiving his 'appearance'?"
"There was no communication, but I could feel it scared. I have a feeling that it wasn't like that, it turned out to be like that, and I don't know why it felt that way......" Little Apple tilted her head slightly, thinking, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
Of course, Xiang Kun knew why she felt like that, but there was no way to explain it, he said, "You try to sense it now, and see if you can sense that monster?"
Little Apple nodded, took out the Minion wood carving that he had been carrying, held it in his hand, and began to concentrate, using the method of "parasite perception" practice during this time to perceive, first establish contact with the Minion wood carving, and then perceive the surroundings through it, and further perceive the "eight-armed monster".
Xiang Kun, who was sitting next to him, also leaned back on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and began to relax his body and enter a "super sensory state".
Soon, the senses of hearing, smell and other senses were temporarily eliminated, and he lost his sense of the body, and his senses began to immerse themselves in that special state.
In the "super sensory state", Xiang Kun began to observe the direction of the little apple, constantly switching the mode of observation, and the surrounding environment is constantly changing, which is the range he can perceive in this special sensory state, which is constantly switching, just like the normal person's hearing range, is 20HZ-20KHZ, if you change this range, then the "heard" information will be very different.
Xiang Kun switched the mode under the "super sensing state", just to find the best mode to observe the changes in the little apple's induction.
Ten minutes later, Little Apple successfully established a connection with the "Eight-Armed and Eight-Eyed Wood Carving", and Xiang Kun also succeeded in observing the changes that occurred in Little Apple's body during this process—he once again sensed the situation that he accidentally perceived on the night of the lightning storm.
He had inductive feedback similar to "emotion injection" items from Little Apple's body, and observed the transfer of energy between her and the Minion wood carving in her hand, the three-piece wood carving of the CPU motherboard memory placed in her home at this time, and the "eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving" hundreds of kilometers apart.
Xiang Kun knew that although there was a big difference in the specific details and abilities, fundamentally speaking, his induction of those "emotionally injected" items in the "supersensory state" was similar to that of Little Apple's induction of those wood carvings at this time.
He observes the induction process of the little apple, in fact, to a certain extent, he is observing his own induction process from another perspective.
The kind of energy transmitted between the little apple and the several wood carvings that were "emotionally injected" should also be the fundamental reason why Xiang Kun was able to sense various objects that established connections, and even he suspected that he was able to enter the "super sensing state", be able to "fly with electricity", and be able to evolve and become a "vampire" by relying on blood-drinking mutations, all because of this energy.
"Uncle Xiang, I sensed that monster again. Little Apple detached herself from the senses, her eyes "staring" ahead without focus. I don't know why, when Xiang Kun sat beside her, she felt that she was particularly confident and confident in the practice of "parasite perception". And the facts also proved that she perceived the "eight-armed monster" more clearly than in the morning.
"How do you feel?" asked Xiang Kun.
"It's still locked up, with walls on all sides. And for some reason, I don't think it's a concrete or stone house, it's wood, and it looks like it's being locked up in a wooden house. But this time it didn't ask me for help anymore, and I seemed to have become it. Little Apple muttered.
"Except for the passage that leads to the 'eight-armed monster', haven't you found any other 'passages'?" asked Xiang Kun again.
Little Apple was a little embarrassed: "Sometimes I feel it, but I don't dare to go, I'm a little afraid of encountering other monsters that are more terrifying." ”
Xiang Kun was a little helpless, little apple, that "eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving" is the "most terrifying" monster you can encounter, in addition to it, other kinds of wood carvings, all kinds of "emotional injection" items, there is no such strong negative emotional injection. The weirdest thing should be the rabbit wood carving - because the emotional projection is rabbit meat.
"It's okay, don't worry, you have to believe in yourself, in that realm of thinking, you are the master, no matter what monsters, ghosts, ghosts, and ghosts, they are all bubbles, you want it to exist, you want it to exist, you want it to disappear, it will disappear. Xiang Kun said.
Xiang Kun is basically certain that Xiao Apple senses and connects with his various "emotionally injected" items, and as long as it is not affected by emotional feedback and drills into the horns, there will be no danger. In this realm of "supersensibility", he is the creator and controller. Little Apple seems to be playing a game, with the game development team and the GM team taking care of it, and it is very stable.
Listening to Xiang Kun's words, Little Apple nodded in agreement.
Before, she was still a little worried, afraid that what she perceived might be hallucinations, and that she would have mental problems after being too involved in "parasite perception".
But since last week, she has obtained more and more perceptual information through "parasite perception", more and more detailed, and even like radar in some cases, she knows all kinds of wind and grass around her well, which is much stronger than her judgment by sound.
In some cases, it can also enhance the feedback information obtained by the sound, for example, in the state of "parasite perception", when hearing the birdsong, it can quickly locate the specific location of the bird that is making the song, whereas in the past it could only quickly perceive one direction.
For many blind people, when moving in a familiar area, the most feared thing is "change", such as the sudden appearance of vehicles, people running fast, dogs, or obstacles that did not exist before but suddenly appeared, etc., which will bring great threats to them when they move alone.
And in the past few days, Little Apple has tried to walk alone many times when she comes to the park - of course, she is always followed by her father or Aunt Yang, and they can't really rest assured that she is walking on her own.
Now she finds that when she successfully establishes a "parasitic perception" with the Minion wood carving, she seems to be able to perceive a "field" around her through the Minions, and has a basic cognition and judgment of all objects.
She didn't have the uncontrollable tension and insecurity she used to feel when she walked alone. Even if she doesn't need a cane, she can walk quickly and confidently. For now, of course, she's only tried it in a familiar park or neighborhood.
She originally guessed whether she had stimulated some kind of bat-like ultrasonic detection ability through Minion wood carving, but after learning about the relevant knowledge through the Internet, she knew that bats' detection ability and her perception were still two different things, and her "parasite perception" could even sometimes feel the emotions and intentions of the people around her.
No matter what this ability is and how it works, it has brought her very direct and tangible benefits.
It is precisely because of this that she knows that the information she perceives through "parasite perception" will never be a simple hallucination.
And in her heart, Xiang Kun has also become the most trusted person besides her father.
"This time, 'Golden Shining' has to be sent to you for a while longer. After getting the observation information he needed, Xiang Kun was also ready to leave, he looked at the birdcage placed on Xiao Apple's side at this time, and said, "I'll come and pick it up after the Spring Festival, is it okay?"
Not only did he go to Qicheng City this time, but he couldn't take care of "Jin Shanshan", and when he came back from Qicheng City, he also had to go back to his hometown for the Spring Festival, whether it was on the way home or after going home, it was not very convenient to take "Jin Shanshan", and he sent it to the little apple here to be with her, whether it was "Jin Shanshi" or the little apple would be happier.
On the way, Xiang Kun had already mentioned this matter to Professor Li Yang on WeChat, and got his promise, and there would naturally be no problems with the little apple.
Sure enough, Little Apple immediately nodded and said, "No problem! I welcome 'Golden Flash' here at any time, you can pick it up whenever you want!"
Now with the help of "parasitic perception", she can do a lot of things by herself, and when Aunt Yang and her father are busy, she can also take care of "Jin Shanshan" by herself.
"Uncle Xiang, I want to learn something about psychology. Little Apple said suddenly.
"Oh, why do you suddenly want to study psychology?"
"I think the method of 'parasite perception' that you taught me seems to be able to feel other people's emotional changes by talking to them, and I want to learn more about this. Little Apple said, remembering something, and hurriedly said: "Of course, I won't let go of computer knowledge!"
Xiang Kun got up, touched Little Apple's head with a smile, and said, "I support whatever you study, although Professor Li must also have a lot of resources to help you find a lot of braille textbooks and audio books, but if you have any questions, you can actually ask me." Although my university major is not close to psychology, I became interested in this area, and it can be said that I have a little bit of talent, and I still understand the basic content. And I know a very powerful person with double master's degrees in psychology and psychology, and I have learned a lot from her. ”
Little Apple wants to try more ways to apply "emotion injection" items, and Xiang Kun will naturally support it.
The new abilities and applications she has developed will also become Xiang Kun's new abilities and applications, and they will also give him new hints and different directions of thinking.
......
Getting on the train to Qicheng City, Xiang Kun looked through the information about Dr. Fang Pingfang that Alice had searched.
Fang Pingfang is a very individual person, which can be seen from her masculine English name "Bruce".
The content she publishes on foreign and domestic social platforms, in addition to relevant academic news and discussions, is a variety of powerful outdoor activities, such as mountaineering, rock climbing, triathlon, winter swimming, etc.
This Dr. Fang Pingfang is a ruthless woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go.
Judging from her research experience, published papers, and achievements, if she works in the department responsible for the research of related mutant organisms in "Shenxing Technology", her position should be more important, or even responsible for a separate direction. This can also be inferred from Zhou Rui's title of her "boss".
Alice did not find the information that Fang Pingfang was employed by "Shenxing Technology", and after she returned to China, her foreign and domestic social platform accounts also stopped updating.
However, Alice made a judgment through some of the information posted on the social platforms of her domestic and foreign classmates: she has lived in Qicheng City in the past year.
Knowing this, it is almost certain that the previous inferences are basically true.
And when Xiang Kun checked this information, Alice told him that she had obtained Fang Pingfang's mobile phone number in China by hacking into the computer and mobile phone of one of Fang Pingfang's domestic classmates, and it would not take long to find out more information and complete the first stage of "deep mining".
The fundamental purpose of his pursuit of Zhou Rui and Fang Pingfang was to find out what they had done for the "Shenxing Technology", and there was no ill will towards them.
Zhou Rui is definitely in the Qinling Mountains, with Xiang Kun's woodcarved rabbit. But I don't know if Fang Pingfang, as his boss, is also there, or staying in the relevant research institutions of Qicheng City's "Shenxing Technology"?
It was already the middle of the night when he arrived in Qicheng City, Xiang Kun naturally didn't need to look for hotels and hotels, he quickly started walking after leaving the airport by car.
Just like before making an "appointment" with Guo Tianxiang, Xiang Kun would familiarize himself with the meeting place in advance, and establish multiple sets of escape or ambush plans in his mind, since he knew that Qicheng City must have a research base for mutant creatures with "Shenxing Technology", he also needed to make preliminary preparations before he really started to snoop and investigate.
It is also necessary to establish a basic understanding of the unfamiliar city of Qicheng City, and to connect the satellite maps on the Internet with the actual streets, scenes, and buildings in your mind.
He didn't need to build a cognitive model of the entire city, he just needed to get acquainted with the area near the company that he had previously found and that was acquired by Shenxing Technology, as well as some of the places he might go to on the map.
At around 4 o'clock in the morning, Xiang Kun saw the company that was acquired by "Shenxing Technology" from a distance.
This is already a suburb, and it covers a large area, separated from the outside by walls and iron gates, and you can see that there are several office buildings inside, as well as small factories, but those factories have obviously been abandoned for a while.
Xiang Kun looked at it and knew it wasn't in the wrong place—because it was more secure than the company should be.
