Chapter 536 Uncontrolled Deep Sleep
Vivian recalled it carefully and shook her head: "I have no impression."
"Do you still remember what happened before you fell into a deep sleep three hundred years ago?" Hao Ren felt like a psychiatrist now. "After beating the angry spirit, you also fell asleep because of 'sleep attack'. Do you still remember what happened in those days?"
Vivian frowned and tried hard to think of her brain cells. After struggling for a while, she still shook her head: "I still have no impression. But I am sure that I have forgotten some details before falling asleep, including handing this box to Paul. I just I remember that after defeating the angry spirit, I was very tired and drowsy. The only thing that came to my mind was to find a place with no one and take a deep sleep... I also vaguely remember that I handed over two resonance stones. I gave it to two followers, but under what circumstances it was given to them, and what other things were given to them... I have no memory at all."
Hao Ren scratched the table with his fingers, summarizing the information revealed in the manuscript and what he had guessed, and sorted out some clues: "Now let's talk about what is known. Just like what you said, your deep sleep There are two types. One is that you take the initiative to go to sleep in order to survive the hard days. Let’s not talk about this situation for now. The other is that you have to sleep when you feel sleepy. The result of the second type of deep sleep is that your strength is greatly weakened and A lot of amnesia. The second kind of deep sleep has one thing in common, that is, you will experience a period of irritability before going to sleep, and it is usually accompanied by a big battle - sometimes you don’t even remember who you are fighting, but in any case you You have to fight with someone, then exhaust your energy and go to sleep. After you wake up, you will forget the details before falling asleep, especially what happened during the period when you were affected by negative emotions. You can only learn from the manuscripts you left after waking up. I saw that I had been troubled by those negative emotions."
Vivian nodded slightly and pointed to some words near the end of the manuscript: "I left some notes here, which should have been written seven hundred years ago. It said 'I' have always been confused about this, and in I conducted a detailed reasoning seven hundred years ago, but in the end I couldn't figure it out, so I decided to put the truth aside for the time being and focus on faithfully recording every sleeping and waking up situation, hoping to accumulate more knowledge in the future. We will be able to decipher this strange phenomenon after we have enough information.”
"In addition, there is another thing you have in common before you fall asleep every time, but I don't know if this is an important clue." Hao Ren folded his hands under his nose with a serious expression, "Every time you fall asleep, you are completely After "recovering strength". The manuscript mentioned more than once that you "completely recovered your physical strength" and decided to embark on a journey or do something else. However, each time it was not long after that that you fell into a state of restlessness and started looking for someone. Fight..."
Vivian blinked: "Does my passive sleep have something to do with my recovery of strength? As long as I return to my full strength, I will definitely doze off?"
"This is just a guess," Hao Ren touched his chin and his face became a little gloomy. "Anyway, I feel that this matter is quite strange. Your situation... is a bit worrying."
"I'm worried myself," Vivian flattened her mouth, her eyes unconcealed with worry, "I don't even know what happened to me... This is the first time I feel that forgetfulness is so bad. I forget and forget. I have forgotten everything, but now I feel that the most troublesome thing in the world is that I have completely forgotten what I have forgotten, and I have even forgotten that I have forgotten what I have forgotten..."
Hao Ren was dumbfounded. He stretched his fingers for a long time before raising his head: "I think the most troublesome thing in the world is to figure out what you just said."
Vivian bared her teeth: "You have to be poor at this time - I suddenly feel a little powerless, I can't even believe it and I can't control it, ugh."
Then the two of them were silent for a while, and Hao Ren suddenly broke the deadlock: "You don't want to sleep now, do you?"
"A little sleepy," Vivian stretched and smiled after seeing Hao Ren's expression change, "Don't worry, it's just a normal doze. I think it's still early for me to fall asleep next time. According to our guess, At least wait until my strength returns to its heyday. And the symptoms before I fell into passive sleep were very obvious. Whenever you notice that my mood is not right, remember to remind me, maybe... maybe I can control it this time. "
Hao Ren laughed and patted his chest confidently: "Don't worry, I have high technology - even if I can't handle it, I can pull the goddess out and show it to you. They say that long-term illness can be cured, Raven 12345 There has been something wrong with your brain for thousands of years, so treating your amnesia is definitely a trivial matter."
Vivian felt weak when she heard this. She thought to herself: Can a goddess who can't even cure her own brain really perform brain surgery on others? But at least the vampire girl still has the last bit of awe for the goddess sister in her heart. This sentence Didn't dare to say it.
But thinking about the magical power of Raven 12345, Vivian does feel a little more confident. No matter what happens... it's okay for a majestic goddess to treat a mortal, right?
If her "amnesia" were indeed some kind of disease.
The two discussed for a while based on the contents of the manuscript, discussing the discrepancies between the things Vivian could recall now and the contents of the manuscript. In the end, they discovered that Vivian's memory amnesia does have a strong regularity, that is, everything related to "negative emotions before falling asleep" will be forgotten. These records of negative emotions in the manuscript were left conveniently before falling asleep. I will copy it as it is after I wake up. Other than that, Vivian's current memory is no different from the contents of the manuscript. In addition, there is no need to question the authenticity of these records: Vivian will never be mistaken about the smell of her blood.
And beyond that, there is no further progress.
The only thing to be thankful for now is that after Vivian completely forgot about the manuscript, she found it again by some strange combination of circumstances - this is the luckiest moment for this poor man who has been unlucky for ten thousand years.
Looking at the small box that had been dismantled into a table of wood chips, Hao Ren couldn't help but smacked his mouth: "By the way, why did you hide the manuscript in the middle of this box? It's a good thing that we took it apart today, otherwise no one would be able to find it. ah."
Vivian was not surprised: "Just to be on the safe side. A three-hundred-year-old jewelry box, no matter how exquisite it is, is just an ordinary thing. It is stored in a resident's home like an old dowry handed down from the ancestors. No one cares about it. I will try it, but a manuscript that has been preserved from ancient Egypt and has clear handwriting is different - the cloth is unknown, the ink is unknown, the writing is unknown, and carbon isotope testing can go back thousands of years. Go ahead, who dares to let it be exposed outside. At that time, I didn’t know that Paul could live to this day. I must have been worried that his descendants would be unreliable, so I hid the manuscript in a wooden box.”
Hao Ren was silent for a moment and suddenly looked into Vivian's eyes: "Anyway, no matter when you fall asleep next time, you must find a way to solve this problem this time. I don't want to suddenly find that you can't sleep one day. It will be two centuries before I can say hello to you.”
"Me too," Vivian smiled, "and I finally lived a good life... I don't want to forget what happened this time."
The two of them felt that the atmosphere was a bit stuffy, so Hao Ren took the initiative to change the topic. He pointed to the blood crystal brought out with the manuscript: "What is this?"
"I don't know, it's not mentioned in the manuscript," Vivian stroked the surface of the crystal, "but I can feel that it was coagulated with my blood. It should have been made three hundred years ago. I probably forgot to put it together at that time. Write down the things about this crystal. Keeping it will definitely be useful anyway."
Vivian said, stuffing the blood crystal into her pocket, and then looked up at Hao Ren: "Stop talking about my affairs here, don't you have something to do with me?"
"Oh, I want you to see the source blood," Hao Ren handed a tube of source blood sample to Vivian, "Part of the sample is being cultivated in the spaceship laboratory. You use blood magic to study these samples. Let’s see if we can find the reason why it is connected with the goddess. I have been holding this thing for a long time and almost sucked it to death and tasted it, but I just can’t see the connection between it and the brain waves.”
"Are you in a hurry?"
"It's not that urgent. Anyway, the Dream Plane matter is a big project," Hao Ren waved his hand, "You can take a look when you have time."
The two chatted for a while before Hao Ren left the basement and returned to his room.
He stared at the moonlight outside the window and was in a daze for a while, then called to the data terminal on the table that was playing a movie for himself: "Come here, I want to write a report to Raven 12345."
