Chapter 790 Hippocampus
…do planets have brains too?
Lin Sanjiu was full of surprise for a moment, and stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react.Between the few questions and answers just now, the earth accent became quiet again. At this time, only the liquid from nowhere fell into the puddle drop by drop, and the echo gradually dissipated in the quiet.
Sibaan, who was standing not far in front, tilted his head slightly, revealing a profile with a straight nose.He lowered his eyes, avoiding the Queen Mother: "I understand. How much nutrition do you need in total to grow up? Maybe we can help you."
Not necessarily.
The voice that seemed to press directly on the soul was huge and expansive, filling the mind; it was hard to describe the tone of the Queen Mother's speech, and it was even hard to say whether it had a tone or not——
As a steak, you should have the appearance of a steak.
As soon as these words caught his ears, Lin Sanjiu was shocked and raised his head immediately.She will never forget this sentence until she dies—in her home world, it was this sentence that Ren Nan said to her, which opened her first day as an evolutionary.
This is definitely not a coincidence.
She opened her mouth, only to feel her lips trembling slightly. "Spa'an, it... I heard what it said once from someone else. I suspect that it can intercept some messages in our brains."
"Is it your memory?" Siba'an raised his voice slightly, and just after asking half a sentence, the Queen Mother's voice fell down again.
...you will always be on this side of the glass looking at other people's lives...parallel lines that never meet.
This sentence was very strange, obviously it did not come from her memory; when Lin Sanjiu raised his head, he just saw Siba'an suddenly turned his head away.
After Queen Mother’s words fell, there was no movement in the earthy accent—it seemed to have given up the attack of the purple-black long worm, but remained silent in the dead silence; Lin Sanjiu looked up at the mother-in-law. As soon as her eyes met, she quickly understood what she meant.
The witch looked at the brains behind the two for a while, then shook her head.
She didn't say anything, which meant that the Queen Mother didn't take any action.
Just like that, in a cavity deep underground, the two of them stood stiffly with their backs facing a mountain-like brain, neither moved nor made a sound.
What is the Queen Mother going to do?
"You're right," Sparan suddenly broke the silence.Different from the leisurely and intimate tone in the past, he sounded really angry at this moment, and his voice sank coldly: "It can indeed touch our memory. But now, what it captures should only be some fragments."
That sentence really belonged to him.
"How did it do it?" Lin Sanjiu's nails dug deep into his palm, "Why...could it be the parasite we infected? Can parasites do this kind of thing?"
"Have you heard of Toxoplasma gondii?" The blond man replied in a low voice, "It is carried in the cat's body and has no effect on the cat itself; on the contrary, rats infected by Toxoplasma gondii will lose their fear of cats...they They even swaggered past the cats without knowing how to run away."
The queen mother behind her was still silent, as if she didn't exist.If it wasn't for Lin Sanjiu knowing that she couldn't be so lucky, she would even wonder if it planned to let them go.
"I've heard... you mean, the parasite we infect is very similar to Toxoplasma gondii?"
"Yes, but it's much more powerful than that." Siba'an replied while thinking: "Once this parasite invades our brain, it can immediately split into three new sources of infection, driving us to control the brain." They spread. It seems that the first thing to be affected and damaged is our emotional center."
"So although our reason is still there, we are neither afraid nor suspicious." Lin Sanjiu said here, and added: "Information about Shambhala also entered our brain through parasites, right?"
The blond man nodded: "It can only be for this reason."
The clearer the two people's voices were when they spoke, the more silent the Queen Mother seemed to be behind them.Such an astonishingly huge "brain" was only dyed by the light as a curved edge, and most of the body melted into the darkness... Lin Sanjiu imagined that it was sticking to the back of their heads like a ghost at this time on, listening to their every word quietly.
"The parasite has probably invaded our hippocampus by now—that's where we store our memories." Sibaan raised his hand and tapped his temple, but still didn't look back. "So it can touch our memory."
"I see," Lin Sanjiu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, "Somehow they were able to read our bits and pieces of memory, and... passed it on to the Queen Mother." When she said this, she thought for a while Seconds, I finally found a suitable analogy: "It's like... just like Bluetooth transmission!"
"Yes," Siba'an nodded, and seemed to want to say something, but suddenly stopped talking.He pondered for a while before opening his mouth again, his voice was a little erratic: "Yes...but I'm not as optimistic as you. I think the Queen Mother's goal is not to read our bits and pieces of memory."
"You mean?"
"Suddenly I couldn't think of what to say." The blond man shook his head vigorously, "...its goal is very clear, it is to absorb our brains as nutrients. So many people came to Shambhala one after another , but those who can constantly fight against their own will like you and me, I am afraid it is rare... It has encountered such a rare situation, I think it must be brewing a new way to deal with us."
"Is it going to attack our hippocampus?"
This time her voice fell for a while, but she still didn't hear an echo from Siba'an.He seemed to be stunned, standing straight in front of him; Lin Sanjiu called him several times in a row, and he was shocked as if he had suddenly recovered: "What did you say?"
"You...what's the matter with you?" Lin Sanjiu was stunned, and asked in a low voice: "You continue to talk?"
"Continue to say?" Siba'an seemed to be a little stunned: "Why is there no movement from the Queen Mother?"
"I don't know." She murmured, "By the way, what did you just say...?"
She clearly remembered that she was still thinking about one thing just now, but in a flash, she forgot what was in her mind just now, and she couldn't remember it no matter how much she thought about it.
"I forgot." Siba'an said word by word.
Lin Sanjiu also forgot.
"It's a coincidence, it's not normal." She murmured, "Are we talking about why the Queen Mother didn't move?"
It was just a conversation just half a minute ago, but now it is like a piece of silk that fell into the water, drifting slowly to the depths of her mind with the waves, no matter how she grabbed it, she could only grab it empty-handed.
"No, no," a hoarse elderly female voice directed both of their eyes to the sorceress.Her long and pointed nose drooped downwards, shining with beads of sweat in the dark: "Are you just forgetting? What were you talking about just now, the hippocampus, what kind of memory—how did you forget it so quickly?" gone?"
The feeling of "suddenly realizing it" was like a beam of moonlight cast down at night, which just illuminated Lin Sanjiu's mind, and then it seemed to be engulfed by dark clouds, leaving her only a foggy mist.
Almost as soon as the witch's voice fell, she forgot again.
It seems that the same is the case with Sparan.
"I vaguely remember that we said that the counterattack just now didn't work." He said in a low voice, "What item do you have that can automatically launch an attack without operating it?"
Lin Sanjiu heard Teacher Yi's voice faintly passing from the back of her mind, and it disappeared before she could hear it clearly.
What is she reminding herself again?
"I have," she hurriedly replied without having time to think about it.The painter was called out twice in a short period of time, and he seemed a little at a loss; but this time the goal was very clear——Lin Sanjiu pointed behind him, and he immediately hugged his bucket and paintbrush, hurriedly He ran to Sba'an, set up his easel and sat down.
The light in the earth tone was dim, and all the details were submerged in a haze; so he painted very fast, and as soon as he stopped the brush, a strong airflow suddenly blew up in the earth tone, and rushed straight into the blank space of the canvas.The wind kept hitting something behind it, making a rush and crisp sound on some kind of soft shell-like texture; even with the size of the Queen Mother, it was moved by the suction of the canvas—it probably It was also resisting the suction, and the ground was constantly being hit, and heavy tremors came again and again.
Sparan didn't move.
"I always feel that we seem to have forgotten some very important things..." His low voice was almost indistinguishable from the sound of the Queen Mother shaking the ground.As he spoke, he glanced at the canvas with a large blank in the center—then suddenly froze.
"Lin," he suddenly raised his voice, pointing at the canvas and shouted, "Can you see it? Next to this blank space, which is at the feet of the Queen Mother—seems like there is a person lying down."
Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, and quickly narrowed his eyes to look at the canvas.It's just that the painter ran too far to capture the panorama, and she couldn't see anything for a while; Sibaan looked down for a few seconds, and then let out a long breath: "It's meme!"
Oops—the thought rose from her mind at once.
At this time, the queen mother was attracted to the canvas, and was struggling and rolling on the back, shaking the earthen cavity and kicking up countless dust; the meme was too close to it, as long as it was rolled a little by that brain , then no matter whether he was dead or alive just now, all that can be left is a puddle of flesh and blood.
"I'll go and bring him back," Sbaan waved his hand, and the half-moon-shaped silver light disappeared together with the witch, replaced by a waist-high metal cylinder on the ground.Lin Sanjiu was taken aback, and hurriedly called out: "Wait, don't turn around!"
But she said it too late - when Sibaan turned around, she also forgot why she couldn't turn around.
