Dream Guide

This result was completely beyond Aoki's expectations.

When he and Crow joined forces, they failed to completely eliminate Xia Wenyuan's shadow. If it were to be forcibly eliminated, Xia Wenyuan's subjective consciousness would probably be harmed as well. And the invasion consciousness in Yao's mother's mind was obviously more mature than that of the shadow. As a result, a cat jumped out and meowed twice, and the guy who couldn't be killed escaped?

"Auntie, can you be more specific? Have you seen that cat before?" Aoki asked.

"Of course I've seen it before. That's a domestic cat I keep at home. How could I not have seen it before!" Yao's mother said.

Yao Jingjing asked in surprise: "Mom, when did our family have a cat? Why didn't I know about it?"

Dad Yao said: "Yes, we have never raised a cat!"

Yao's mother said: "It was raised by my grandma, of course you don't know. I was still young at that time, where did you come from? When I was a child, the cat was very close to me. It would rub around me all day long, even when eating. Everybody sit with me."

Yao Jingjing chuckled and said: "It turns out that my mother was a shit shovel when she was a child!"

Yao's mother didn't understand and cursed: "You are cursing me for not dying a miserable death!"

Yao Jingjing quickly explained: "I'm talking about shit shoveling officer, which means raising a cat. How can I curse you!"

Yao's mother said: "Young people always use words that we don't understand."

They were there to explain the problem of the shit shoveler, but Aoki was lost in thought. The cat that Yao’s mother had when she was a child is at least forty or fifty years old. The average lifespan of a cat is only a dozen years, and the current Guinness World Record for the longest-lived cat is only in his thirties. So the cat that Yao’s mother dreamed about should have died long ago. Then there are only two possibilities. One is that the cat she dreamed about was copied by her subconscious in the dream space based on her memory; the other possibility is that the cat’s consciousness did not dissipate after death, but entered through some special method. Yao's mother's brain, and has been lurking inside.

Aoki first ruled out the first possibility. If it was just a copy constructed by self-consciousness in a dream, it would be impossible to drive away the intruder. But if it is the second possibility, it is too bizarre.

Except for the hidden genetic memory, all memories of living organisms are stored in the brain. The brain is like a huge hard drive that controls the storage and retrieval of information through the nervous system. Generally speaking, consciousness itself does not have a memory function, and information must be stored with the help of substances with functions similar to the brain.

Putting aside the metaphysical issues of whether consciousness can exist alone after being separated from matter and how it can enter the body of another living body, theoretically speaking, once consciousness leaves the body, or the brain of the body dies, the conscious body will Without the authority or ability to recall memories, its memory of the past ceases to exist. It cannot remember who it once was, who were its friends and who were its enemies.

If the cat retained its consciousness after death through some special method and entered Yao's mother's consciousness area, then in fact, it became a foreign parasitic consciousness just like the invading consciousness.

It is said that one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers, and it is impossible for two consciousness bodies to coexist in one consciousness area. Just like the awakened person has to be careful when entering the dreams of others, using powerful spiritual power to conceal his own existence or control the other party's consciousness. That's why the intruding consciousness in Xia Wenyuan's body grew in a hidden way like his shadow, and because it stole all his memories, it will become exactly the same as the main consciousness when it grows up.

So how did that cat live with Yao's mother for so many years without infringing on each other?

"Auntie, have you ever dreamed about that cat before?" Aoki asked.

"No." Yao's mother said with certainty.

"Never?"

"Hey - it seems..." Yao's mother also became a little confused, "It seems that it really doesn't happen. Since the cat died, I have never dreamed about it. Even if I dreamed about it all day long a while ago, I have never dreamed about it since I was a child. I’ve dreamed about all kinds of trivial things, but never about this cat.”

"That cat is actually dead, right?"

Yao's mother said: "He's dead. He died a long time ago. He left with my grandma. I was in high school at that time, and my dad suddenly came to school and asked me to go back, saying that my grandma was dying. When I returned to Cuanjia Village, my grandma was lying on the bed. On the bed, the cat was in her arms. When she saw me coming back, she asked me to sit next to her. Then I fell asleep, as if I had a dream. When I woke up, my grandma and the cat were already there. gone."

Qingmu knew that there must be an encrypted protected area in the memory area of ​​Yao's mother's cerebral cortex, and it was related to this cat. There must be something that the invading consciousness wants in that protected area.

He decided to hypnotize Yao's mother and enter her dream to take a look. Although it may not be what he thought, if the secret of the intrusion consciousness can be solved, it would be a big deal. After all, Xia Wenyuan received so much money, but the shadow was not completely solved. Moreover, he was also very curious about the origin of that shadow, and even vaguely felt that it had something to do with him.

However, with the presence of the cat, Aoki was not sure how long it would take to enter Yao's mother's dream and what would happen.

Although there is no time correspondence between dreams and reality, it can even be said that there is no time in dreams, because time is just a concept created artificially for the purpose of understanding the world. There is no time in the dream space itself, and the subconscious mind does not need to rely on realistic logic to retrieve memories to construct dreams. In other words, in dreams, time has become a visible dimension, so things at different times can be recalled and reconstructed by the subconscious mind at the same time. When we recall a dream, we feel that the dream was very long, but in fact it was only a moment.

In order to prevent the search for Yao's mother's memory block from taking too long or causing any accidents because of the cat, Aoki decided to send Yao Jingjing and Yao's father away.

"Jingjing, I'm hungry." Aoki said.

"Ah?" Yao Jingjing trembled. This piece of wood had either politely called her "Stewardess Yao" or shouted "Hey, hey" rudely before, but then she suddenly heard "Jingjing", which caught her off guard. Yao Jingjing suddenly got goosebumps all over her body, but her face turned red unconsciously.

Qingmu didn't feel anything strange about Yao Jingjing at all. How could he speak so smoothly? In the past, when he called Lifespan Flower, he would also call her Ruhua and Boss Lady. He would also call her Hu Xing by name and Officer Hu. At this moment, he heard Yao's mother keep calling "Jingjing, Jingjing", so he just called her that way.

Bi Shenghua said that he was from an alien planet, and his brain looked different from that of Earthlings. There might be several things living in it with an IQ of only 50. When they were combined, they were extremely smart, but when they were not combined, they were mentally retarded.
