Nomenclature of Night

Burning illusion, boiling blood, thunderous heartbeat.

Qing Chen seemed to feel the roar of the world, burning with his own life.

However, the burning sensation soon subsided again. With breathing, the flame lines on his cheeks with Shutong Li remained, but the air he breathed in his lungs turned into a refreshing breeze, no longer accompanied by pain!

Lin Xiaoxiao on the side suddenly reminded: "Hold your consciousness, the pain you have forgotten will quickly sweep through your mind, all pain, remember all pain. At that moment you will start to collapse, if you can't pass this level, who I can't help either."

Qing Chen's mind was startled, because the pain Lin Xiaoxiao said came into his mind instantly:

The first time he lived alone, he tried the fingers he cut while cooking. The moment he cut, the blade slowly ran across his skin, and even the touch of the fingerprints being cut was recalled.

During the waterboarding, the icy water flowing in his lungs looked like poisonous saplings, with cold rhizomes stuck in his lungs.

In the dark room, the dehydrated dryness collided with the pain of the previous second of waterboarding.

And the sunset on the day the mother left.

And the back of the other person dragging his suitcase in the sunset.

All this is sweeping like a tide, as if to pat the seaside cliff into gravel.

The black waves shattered like knives gave out hollow howls and wailings.

Qing Chen seemed to have returned to waterboarding and closed his eyes.

He plunged into the darkness of nothingness again.

There was a gentle voice calling out under the abyss: "Let's go with mom."

Qing Chen replied: "I walked the long way by myself, and I walked the rest of the way by myself."

As if only a flick of time passed, he opened his eyes again.

No wonder Li Shutong said that he couldn't go his way if he couldn't get through that level.

It turned out to be for this moment.

Qing Chen's breathing was like a fire.

The fire seemed to have burnt up the past in an instant. From then on, he understood his choice, no longer need to blame himself, no need to look back.

For the rest of my life, the way forward is all.

The expressions of Ye Wan and Lin Xiaoxiao beside them also changed. They stood up straight and looked at each other, as if they didn't expect Qing Chen to remain sober until now.

They have also experienced this kind of pain. When the pain comes together, they are very clear about what it is like to collapse in their hearts.

Only those who have looked directly at each pain can step through the abyss of "asking the heart", separate their past from the future, and move forward.

Lin Xiaoxiao murmured: "Perhaps Qing Chen never forgets, so he has never forgotten the pain..."

The human brain has a protective mechanism, it will make you forget something deliberately, so that you can live a better life.

However, the super-memory state gave Qing Chen an extraordinary talent, and it also gave him endless pain.

He has long been accustomed to the pain of reviewing the cycle year after year.

Qing Chen has never been the darling of the greenhouse, long ago, he was a believer in pain.

Moreover, that abyss, he had already stepped over.

Li Shutong slowly released his palm, and said with emotion: "This level is smoother than I thought."

For some reason, when he realized what was going on, he started to feel a little distressed for the boy in front of him.

No one knows what the other person's life is like, and what they are carrying when the other person is enjoying his talent.

The flame marks on Qing Chen's cheeks began to fade, and he asked, "What is the effect of this breathing technique?"

The reason for asking this is because he didn't feel any obvious changes in his body.

I only feel refreshed and relaxed, and my weakness after four days of fasting has quickly subsided.

"It's just an auxiliary method," Li Shutong said: "Breathing is the difference in breathing rate. Now you can't use it alone. When I take you a few more times, you will remember its rhythm."

However, as soon as the voice fell, Li Shutong saw Qing Chen sitting on the opposite side, the flame pattern on his face no longer faded, but spread again!

He smiled bitterly for the first time: "Forget that you can enter a state of super memory, you can just write down this breathing rhythm."

I have to say that Li Shutong is really helpless now. He was taken by the teacher more than forty times before he could barely remember the breathing rate, and he couldn't make a mistake.

But the boy in front of him can do it once.

Li Shutong turned and said: "Since I don't need to bring this, let me tell you directly about the inheritance of the knight. As for the role of breathing technique, I can talk about it later."

"At the beginning of the Knights Organization, it was the founder who discovered the secret of Gene Lock."

"According to his conclusion, when human beings complete the eight life and death stages, the gene lock will open by itself."

Li Shutong continued: "In the earliest days, you can only be considered a qualified knight if you have completed these eight life and death stages. The genetic lock is open, and you are extraordinary."

"At that time, there were still many knights. They followed humans through the era of cataclysm and opened a new era of civilization with the surviving humans."

"But then there are fewer and fewer knights, not because there are no suitable candidates, but because there is a life and death pass that must be completed in the sea, but the entire sea has become a forbidden place. It used to be a life of nine deaths, and now it has become a dead end. Health."

"Without a life-and-death barrier, the chain of genes cannot be opened naturally."

"But at that time, the new leader of the knight, Qin Sheng, was also very talented. He created a new breathing technique to assist. The successor discovered that by supplementing the breathing technique during the challenge, he could open a little gene lock every time he completed a life and death pass. Complete everything before turning on."

"Although a knight who has only completed one life and death pass is not as strong as a knight who has completed eight life and death passes, when everyone completes the sixth pass, their strength has completely surpassed the older generation of knights."

"If it is divided according to the ranks of the inner world, it will be ABCDEF six grades, and the sixth grade will be A grade."

Qing Chen was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the transcendents in this world would still have power levels.

He suddenly asked: "Then teacher, what is your level?"

Ye Wan said from the side: "The boss is S-level."

Because Li Shutong has completed the seventh pass of life and death, only the last one is missing.

"But what is the magic of this breathing technique that can actually help open the gene lock?" Qing Chen asked.

He was excited at this time because he had touched the door of the new world, but he was still a little puzzled.

"You should know about endorphins," Li Shutong said.

Although Qing Chen has never forgotten, he has never paid attention to this one before. He can only rely on the information in his memory to say: "Like dopamine, it is a secretion that gives people happiness, but there are also differences: playing games and winning the lottery. , What you get during gambling is dopamine, and the pleasure and relaxation after exercise is given by endorphins."

Li Shutong shook his head: "The soul chicken soup says so, but dopamine can't directly make people happy. It is just a neurotransmitter, responsible for transporting serotonin that can make people happy. But in layman's terms, it is not wrong that dopamine gives happiness. , But you have to understand that it does not give happiness, but addictive cravings."

"What about endorphins?" Qing Chen asked.

"Endorphins are a substance that is bitter before sweet. It binds to the morphine receptors in the body and can play an analgesic effect, but this is only the most basic function," Li Shutong said: "The ancestor Qin Sheng did it. Very rigorous testing and found that when the knights complete a certain life and death pass, a large amount of endorphins in the body will be secreted."

"So he believes that dopamine is a poison to sink, and endorphins are the key to unlocking the genetic lock."

"Therefore, there is a new creed in the Knights Organization: only through a painful life can you be more advanced."
