Chapter 65 The Spine and the Brain-Machine Barrier

The master and apprentice quickly cleaned up the corpses in this green forest village.

This is mostly due to Xiang Shan's contribution - after noticing that Yuki and a group of green forest bandits were moving towards the exit, he rushed into the weapon storeroom very simply and snatched some hot weapons.And the green forest crowded at the exit did see that he did not bring a gun when he came in, and planned to rely on the "packed formation" to resist to the end, and this happened to bring the lethality of thermal weapons to the extreme.

This has also resulted in a large number of precision components being completely damaged due to high temperature and vibration.What can be recycled are only metal resources.

As for the remaining biological parts, there are really very few.

The entire stockade can only occupy a corner of the warehouse.

"Don't worry about the rest. Come on apprentice, come and see the world." Xiang Shan said to Yuki after throwing a pile of metal into the furnace.

Yuki nodded, turned around and hugged the girl who didn't know whether she was unconscious or asleep, and followed Xiangshan.

Xiang Shan found a freezer in the practice room of Gliad and the little poisonous insect.He opened the refrigerator, and there were some medicines in a messy stack.There are also a dozen or so spines.

The most conspicuous among them are three thick tubular containers with a height of 80cm and a radius of about 30cm.This tubular container is very strange, and the inside is subdivided into three layers.The outermost layer stores a nearly colorless transparent liquid, the middle layer stores a translucent milky white substance, but the inner layer cannot be seen clearly.

"Reverse messenger soaking agent..." Xiang Shan took a deep breath: "This is it."

It is not uncommon for people in the forest to fight fiercely with officials, chivalrous men or others, and the spinal cord is damaged.Naturally, alternative means are also needed.

The reason why a person cannot directly use the notochord of others is because the nerve is in direct contact with the endophytic body of the notochord, which will cause a certain rejection reaction.

The anti-messenger soaking agent is a special enzyme.

To be precise, it is the part of the middle layer of that special three-layer container.

According to the memory that Xiang Shan dug out from the little poisonous insect, to use the anti-messenger soaking agent, first put the notochord that needs to be modified into the middle layer of the container through an opening at the top, and then put the biological tissue of the target to be modified from the other end. The openings are put into the outermost layer.

Next, put this container into a constant temperature water bath, heat the water to boiling, and then cool it down to 70 degrees to support the chain reaction of the predetermined organic matter in the outer layer and amplify the genetic material of the transformation target.

After this stage is over, the container walls of the first and second layers will be broken automatically, and then the first amplified fragment of genetic material will come into contact with the special enzymes and viruses of the second layer.The walls of the shattered container are excellently insulated, and the second layer will remain at near-zero temperatures until it shatters.The temperature formed after the first layer of high-temperature liquid meets the second layer of zero-degree liquid will reactivate the activity of viruses and enzymes.

Then the genetic information fragment amplified in the first layer will be placed into the virus.

Then the isolation arms on the second and third floors will also be broken.The third layer of medicine includes nutrients and hormones.They activate the activity of the notochord soaked in it before the virus enters.

To be honest, when Xiang Shan first learned about this kind of thing, he was actually quite confused.

Although, the technology of "using enzymes to transfer gene fragments into viruses" was born in 1969, and the "polymerase chain reaction for amplifying gene fragments" was born in 1983, and these things were ridiculed by friends in the biology department as " Anything that can be done by catching anyone on the road.”

However, in Xiangshan's era, he was not foolish to this extent.

Not to mention that this also involves the operation of "replacing one individual's genetic material with another individual's genetic material"...

How should I put it, "transferring specific gene fragments into people with genetic defects to treat genetic diseases" is something that can be done in 1998, but this technology is absolutely impossible to change your biological parents, let alone Settle the rejection reaction.

In the era that Xiang Shan still remembers, anti-immune drugs were needed to settle the rejection.

Compared with other technologies that Xiangshan vaguely recognized in Green Forest, the medicine in this container is really too sci-fi, and it doesn't look like a painting style at all.

The training room used by Little Poisonous Insect and Gliad to study the secret books of the Devil's Cult has a part of the biology laboratory, and of course there is a constant temperature water bath.

Xiang Shan quickly set the parameters and waited for the temperature to heat up.

Then, he pointed to the door: "Apprentice, that little girl is really too noisy. If I get busy later, maybe it will be affected, so you take her to find a place."

Yuki was a little unhappy: "Can I watch here?"

He is very curious now.

Xiang Shan shook his head and said, "It would be cruel to let her alone in this blood-stained place. Besides, she is so young, what if an accident happens? You stay with her. Don't worry, I also left something for you. "

As he spoke, he sent several exercises to Yuki's chip again.

"I will teach you more advanced things when you have a good level of mathematics. Now, practice by yourself."

After Yuki left, Xiang Shan walked to the maintenance instrument.He used a data cable to connect himself with this instrument, and then used his internal energy to roam and calculate in the main control chip of this instrument.

He was excluding possible backhands in this instrument.

For example, the setting of "after detecting the death of the original owner, use vicious bugs to kill subsequent users".

And Xiang Shan's fundamental reason for letting Yuki leave is similar to this.

Although Xiang Shan had already checked the chip for Yuki and removed the backhand, he didn't think it was safe.

Perhaps before he fell into a deep sleep, his inner strength was very strong.But during his sleeping days, the computer field was still developing-this has been shown by the welfare officer and other asylum seekers.He doesn't think that what he remembers is all about the field of internal strength.

It is completely normal that a brand new Gu that he had never imagined appeared in his deep sleep.

These Gu don't even need to be "connected to the internet" to trigger them remotely.

For example, "It is detected that there is a knight in front of the infected person who is adjusting the brain", and "stimulate the infected person to go crazy" and so on.

So, be careful.

Xiang Shan even rewrote a small part of the functional modules of the instrument.It's just that this instrument was born very late, Xiang Shan didn't know it, and he didn't know how its numerical control system realized its function.Otherwise, he even wants to rewrite everything that can be rewritten.

But generally it still works.

Xiang Shan soon connected to the equipment.Afterwards, six mechanical arms as thin as scalpels stretched out from above, cutting along the fault zone on the forehead.

The broken part of Xiangshan's head was scanned by people from the recycling station town, and then a skull was cast according to the fracture, sealed with glue, and then attached to the outside, which was very inconvenient.

He intends to take this opportunity to adjust again.

With the help of the lens of the preparation instrument, Xiang Shan clearly saw the state of his cranial cavity for the first time.

Indeed, as the mayor said that day, it was a mess, with a large number of burnt and deformed electronic components deposited inside.Xiang Shan has always been worried about others cleaning up, but his prosthetic hand, which lacks touch, can't do this kind of thing.Fortunately, the precision of this equipment is sufficient, so this time he simply repaired his brain-computer barrier.

Soon, Xiang Shan stripped off a burnt electronic component.

To be honest, it feels really weird.The brain has no sense of touch, but can vaguely feel the vibration.

With several mechanical arms flying, Xiang Shan gradually cleaned up the burnt gadgets, exposing the purple brain-computer barrier with a faint metallic color.

The brain-machine barrier is a shell formed by special metal-based proteins.It not only exists outside the brain, but also theoretically exists between the capillary wall and glial cells—in other words, it is the result of abnormal expression of genes that control the formation of the blood-brain barrier in new humans.

This layer of protein shell is the standard biological tissue.And it has the special conductivity of metal-based proteins that is different from metals and biological tissues, and it is directly connected to the brain nerves.So the original brain-computer interface was directly integrated with the brain-computer barrier.

And with age, the brain-computer barrier slowly grows and changes.Modification of the brain-computer barrier is also an important part of the prosthetic transformation technology.

Xiang Shan quickly cleaned up most of the damage marks.

Of course, Xiang Shan did not forget his purpose.

A part of the biological tissue that was just scraped off was sent into the container of the anti-messenger soaking agent.Also, that spine of Paulus was put into it.

Next, it was about forty hours of waiting.

As the old tissue was cleaned, a large area of ​​new tissue was exposed, and then a new mechanical arm began to burn circuits and create new interfaces.

"Very well, the speed at which nerve signals are transmitted to various parts of the prosthetic body is now faster, and the detection equipment associated with the sense of touch can also undergo simple preprocessing before the signals are transmitted to the brain. This can improve efficiency A small portion." Xiang Shan instinctively wanted to nod.It's just that he held back when he thought of the tiny blades still moving at high speed on his head.

"The chips in the brain also need to be rearranged. The cores of internal energy and external energy should be stored in the left and right hemispheres respectively. In addition, the layout of other chips and storage devices should also be determined according to their functions."

"In addition, resources will be seized from other green forests in the future, so enough interfaces need to be reserved."

"Ah, by the way, it is very important that the prosthetic body must also be redesigned. It is time for this body made of rubbish to be eliminated."
