The technological competition starts with the integration of space-time memory

Chapter 4: Alien Invasion

To Li Tang's surprise, the psychologist arrived very quickly.

In the afternoon, when Li Tang had just completed the overall design of the robotic arm, he heard a knock on the door.

Tuk-tuk-tuk...

The sound is steady and clear.

Even though Li Tang was in the study, he could still hear it very clearly with his hearing.

When the door opened, a handsome middle-aged man with a kind face and wearing a navy blue wool suit, with neatly combed hair stood in front of me.

"You must be Professor Li Tang, right? I'm Jian Mingshen, and the organization arranged for me to come here."

The man used a question, but his tone was affirmative. It was obvious that he had seen information such as Li Tang's photos before coming.

A hint of surprise flashed across Li Tang's eyes.

According to his thinking, Academician Sun would report the case, the higher authorities would look for a corresponding psychological expert, and then the psychological expert would come to visit. This process would take at least two or three days.

Now, only a few hours have passed.

This was the first time that Li Tang realized how important he was in the person above him.

"Yes, I'm Li Tang. Doctor Jian, please come in. I didn't expect you to come so soon."

He led Jian Mingshen to the living room, sat him down, and made a cup of tea.

"I'm sorry, I only have tea here, I don't know..."

"I like to drink tea, too. We are kindred spirits."

"Oh, I don't know much about tea. I just started drinking it with my father when I was little. It's just a habit."

Li Tang and Jian Mingshen started their conversation by drinking tea, and before Li Tang noticed, it gradually turned into a conversation where Jian asked questions and Li answered them.

The topics ranged from Li Tang's genius academic journey, to the basic situation of his parents and sister, to Li Tang's daily work after returning to China, and even to Li Tang's emotional life.

As a talent involved in a national confidential project, Li Tang's basic information had already been included in the files, and Jian Mingshen must have known about it before he was sent here.

Later, when they talked about the content of the dream, Li Tang told them all except the last one which was able to integrate the memories of time and space.

Jian Mingshen didn't know when he had a notebook in his hand, and he was recording from time to time.

When the conversation came to an end, Jian Mingshen tapped his fingers lightly on his notebook:
"Professor Li, are you sure you can distinguish between reality and dreams?"

Li Tang nodded and said, "Of course, this is not a problem for me."

"So how do you tell the difference?"

Li Tang frowned slightly and said, "This is easy, right? When you wake up, you see the reality or touch the real object, that is reality..."

Having said that, Li Tang suddenly found himself unable to continue.

Jian Mingshen looked at Li Tang calmly:

"Did you also see 'reality' and touch 'real objects' in that dream?"

"Yes, this is the first time I realize that this judgment standard is not easy to set."

Jian Ming smiled deeply: "That's right, in fact, there is a lack of theory in this area, and the distinction standard still depends on human instinct.

Most people are not aware that they are dreaming, and only a very small number of people will know that they are dreaming under extremely rare circumstances.

You even know clearly when the dream begins and ends. The dream process is not weird in reality, at most it is a bit sci-fi.

Obviously you are the latter, and we in psychology call this situation lucid dreaming.

By the way, have you ever had any other dreams besides this nightmare?"

Li Tang shook his head. He seemed to have never had any other dreams except that nightmare, or even if he had, he never wrote them down.

"You see, this is a very dangerous state. Dreams and reality are equally real. When one day you can no longer tell the difference, you will no longer be able to distinguish between reality and dreams."

Li Tang thought about it and felt that this situation would not happen because there was a clear difference between the two, and he could also gain knowledge from dreams that he did not have in reality.

To me, dreams seem to be another time and space, which cannot overlap or be confused with the present time and space.

But he didn't intend to continue discussing this topic with Jian Mingshen.

"Doctor Jane, I want to ask a question." "Go ahead."

"I told you before that this dream has prerequisites. Do you think I can go straight into the dream without going through the process of catching a cold and having a fever?"

Jian Ming thought deeply for a moment and said, "Perhaps you can try to use hypnosis to fabricate the process of catching a cold and having a fever, so that your subconscious mind will accept it and enter the dream."

"Hypnosis? Like in the movies, where you can make the person hypnotized do whatever they want?"

Jian Mingshen chuckled, "That's just an exaggerated way of expression in the movie. Hypnosis is just a normal psychological treatment method.

I personally believe that hypnosis is a hypnotist using some external means to guide the patient's subconscious mind with his own overflowing consciousness.

You are a physicist, so you should know that the brain can emit brain waves, right?"

Seeing Li Tang nod, Jian Mingshen continued:
“We call brain waves with a frequency of 8-12 Hz per second alpha waves, and brain waves with a frequency of 4-7 Hz per second are called theta waves.

When humans are relaxed and peaceful, or when they just wake up, their brain waves are in the alpha state.

When in a lighter sleep state or when sitting in meditation, the brain waves are in the theta state.

Hypnosis is to guide the patient to gradually relax, allowing the brain waves to reach the alpha or theta wave frequency band, which can put people in a relaxed state.

At this time, the hypnotist's overflowing consciousness can bypass the patient's main consciousness and communicate with his subconscious mind, thereby discovering or treating the patient's mental illness. "

Li Tang asked curiously, "If that's the case, then wouldn't the hypnotist be able to know the secrets hidden deep in the hypnotized person's heart?"

Jian Mingshen shook his head and said, "In fact, this is difficult, as humans have a very strong self-protection mechanism in their main consciousness.

Compared with the strength of the patient's main consciousness, the hypnotist's overflowing consciousness is very weak. Even if the patient's brain waves reach the frequency band, it is impossible to completely break through the main consciousness's defenses.

The best that current hypnotists can do is to get patients to say the part of their main consciousness that is originally unguarded after they relax.

If a secret has been identified by the main consciousness as hidden deep in the heart, it will be difficult to induce it to be revealed through hypnosis.

This is also why people with strong willpower are difficult to hypnotize. "

Li Tang thought that when he was experiencing the kind of pain that penetrated his soul in his dream, he was still able to remain conscious, so he should not reveal the secrets hidden deep in his heart during hypnosis.

He made up his mind:

"I want to try hypnosis, Doctor Jian, you should be able to hypnotize, right?"

Jian Ming looked at Li Tang deeply, took out a recorder, opened it, put it on the coffee table, and asked, "Professor Li, are you sure you want to accept my hypnosis treatment?"

"Yes, I'm sure. Can we start now?"

"Okay. Come sit on the sofa over here, lean over here, close your eyes, slow down your breathing, and let your mind clear."

Under Jian Mingshen's guidance, Li Tang sat down, closed his eyes, and gradually calmed down.

Until a simple and deep voice came from far away in my ears.

"Are you Li Tang?"

"Yes."

"Do you hear the rustling sound of the wind?"

"I heard……"

"You caught a cold from the wind and have a fever. The temperature seems to be 38.6 degrees Celsius. You took medicine and lay down to sleep."

……

Jian Mingshen's voice, which seemed to come from outer space, made Li Tang, who was in a semi-awake state, seem to see a picture in his mind.

I took the medicine myself, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

In a daze, his mouth felt a little dry, and when he wanted to drink some water——

Suddenly, he felt something soft covering his face, followed by a strong force pressing down on his mouth and nose, and the feeling of suffocation quickly spread to his brain.

……

"There is an alien consciousness invading!"

　It’s a new book, so hurry up and read and collect it!
