Chapter 77 Sand in the Dream

Phantom limb pain, also known as limb phantom pain, means that the patient feels that the severed limb is still there, and pain occurs there.

A person who has had their hand amputated may also feel that the hand they have lost is being cut, burned, or electrocuted.

Some people believe that the essence of "phantom limb pain" is the corresponding nerve defect after the limb disappears.The brain doesn't receive the nerve signal from that place, and it can't understand the fact that "the arm has been removed", it thinks that the limb is damaged, and creates a "warning" signal in the brain.

Of course, it is also said that this is due to the compensation mechanism of the cerebral cortex-after losing part of the limbs, the brain will mistakenly regard the sensations of other parts as the sensations of the original limbs, which makes the "touch" and other perceptions have a huge impact. contradiction.

This was once an important pass in the process of human prosthetics-when the nerve plexuses in the whole body of a person disappear, the brain will be at a loss.

And the easiest way is to send deceptive signals to the brain through the chip, making the brain think that its limbs still exist.

But Xiangshan's problem was different.Since he had just undergone spinal nerve surgery, the new spinal nerves were not completely fused, and the signals sent to the brain would carry some bugs.After these false signals are misprocessed by the brain, it will produce a kind of phantom pain.

At the same time, the signals sent to the prosthetic body by Xiangshan through the spinal nerve will also deteriorate to varying degrees.

Originally, Xiang Shan chose to block this signal, and then use the remote mode to release the wireless signal with the device in his brain.

But when the electromagnetic pulse overwhelmed the signal, Xiang Shan had to use the not yet fully healed spinal nerve to direct the new body.

The pain submerged Xiang Shan's consciousness like a tide.Xiang Shan seemed to feel that his long-existent physical body was being struck by thunder and fire, and all kinds of feelings struck him.

And this pain also evokes more memories.

That was the scene of cooperating with other researchers to record data on the hospital bed...

That's the scene of being shattered in the explosion...

It was the scene of falling to the ground, facing a young man who was pressing every step of the way...

……

In an instant, the illusion disappeared like a bubble.Xiang Shan made an urgent defensive move.

However, due to the fact that the spinal nerves had not yet recovered, there were some flaws between his fists and feet that shouldn't have existed.Ulster slipped out of control immediately, and then bit back.

In a hurry, Xiang Shan could only block the opponent's bite with his arm.

Sparks flew out.The outer armor on Xiangshan's arm shattered like a cookie.

Xiang Shan took advantage of this little time to turn over and restrict the opponent's movements.

This is another drawback of artificial fiber muscles.Muscles rely on the contraction of fibers to develop strength, and the relaxation of muscle fibers cannot provide strength.Organisms require a set of muscles on each side to restore a limb.The muscle groups on both sides are of different sizes, so the "inward" and "outward" forces are inconsistent.This is true of most amniotes.Because there is a structure called "temporal foramen" in the skull of amniotes, which allows more masseter muscles to be attached to the head, the bite force crushes more primitive vertebrates.However, due to the huge gap between the "inward" and "outward" muscle groups of the masseter muscles, the strength gap between "opening" and "closing" of many beasts is extremely large.

Small crocodiles such as caimans cannot even break free after being pinched by humans.

This is one of the working principles of many grappling techniques.

Artificial muscle fibers are indeed far better than natural animal muscles in this regard, but they are still not as good as hydraulic rods, which have similar two-way strength.

Xiang Shan barely controlled Ulster's upper limbs, but because he missed the opportunity, he couldn't lock the more threatening head after all.

The dog's upper and lower jaws damaged Xiang Shan's arm like hydraulic scissors.

A smile finally appeared on the dog's mouth.He and Xiang Shan's limbs restrained each other, but now that he was above, Xiang Shan had lost the possibility of using his weight.Xiang Shan couldn't even let go of the hug he made.His prosthetic body has greater advantages in speed and explosiveness.It is impossible for Xiangshan to get a second chance to be dragged into the ground battle.

This is his victory!

"For the sake of everyone being in the same line of martial arts, let me finally tell you a few words from the bottom of my heart, young man." The old dog said with a chuckle: "Human instinct is a negative inheritance. The ancestor of martial arts once said that those who step into the martial arts You need to fight against your own instincts. It is said in the martial arts scriptures that the innate physical body is the most humble..."

These words pierced Xiang Shan's mind like a key.

More, more memories, together with the scene just now, stirred in Xiang Shan's brainwaves.

——Let's clean up the negative heritage given to us by our ancestors!

——Let's cut off the physiological basis for the Monkey King's birth!

——Let human beings get rid of the enslavement of their own genes!Let everyone have the opportunity to become the "self" they want to be!

——We are the ones who stole the skyfire!

At this moment, the wind is flat, the waves are calm, the clouds stop, and the flags stop.

Memories are instantly cleared, and the "past" fades away like a tide, and finally freezes on a certain picture.

A car is parked on the side of the street.Then, the people in the car looked out of the car, and stretched out their hands to a man in ragged clothes who looked like a beggar. "Beggar" snorted coldly, but still held that hand.

——It must be admitted that we do overestimate ourselves.

——"Productivity determines the relationship of production"... I originally thought that if the most powerful technology is developed, the strongest productivity is developed, and it is entrusted to humans, more advanced changes will naturally occur.

—You are indeed an idiot.The naked ape living in the steel forest has no difference in brain structure from its African ancestors 5 years ago.Their poor nervous system has long been unable to understand society correctly.Most people just pick up a few new words from their predecessors and let those words do their thinking for them.

——The Naked Ape's instinctive desire for the Monkey King to appear.This is their irreversible nature.Even populist movements, which are supposed to emphasize the most civilians, will inevitably degenerate into large-scale rituals of loyalty to leaders and love for idols.This is not the first time in history this happened, right?

——Even if we put chips in their brains, they will not use these spare resources to think well.They will only follow their instincts to worship the new Monkey King.Hopeless.

—Ha, bro, is that enough complaining?

——Not enough, how could it be enough.

——Well, it is enough to still have the strength to curse.The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard.

— not yet?Didn't it already fail?

--Failure is the mother of success.

— What else can we do?The world has been completely controlled.We have done this in our lifetime!Ha ha ha ha……

--Um.Indeed it is.We thought we just wiped out all famines when the last poor people all became Homo vexillues.But it is undeniable that we have also created irresistible strongmen.Speaking of which, since the distant past, technology has been controlled by the strong.

——R&D needs resources, production needs resources...

——But it’s like what the group used to say. "Knowledge" is supposed to be the common wealth of mankind, why do rich people claim their ownership?In the final analysis, the scientific researcher system derived from the European aristocratic system is not fundamentally different from the social class of knights. The glory belongs to oneself, and martial arts serve the lord.

——There is a big problem here.From nobles and feudal lords to capitalists and bureaucrats, the monkey king in everyone's head has not changed.It's just that capitalists and bureaucrats are always stronger than landlords, so we all feel that this is a kind of progress, and this kind of progress will continue.The route is just wrong.

--so?It's too late to say anything now.The world has lost its resistance.

——We can also make the fire of resistance and give it to the people.

——Are you still stupid?Those naked apes...

——The group of naked apes is also "Homo sapiens".Among the naked apes, there are certainly countless fools.But the 1-year journey of Homo sapiens is not all ignorance, but also sparks of wisdom and true chivalry.

—Let's create a new technology.Combining open access and decentralized production to make something that anyone can use...

- I shall call it...

"Martial arts is not such a thing!" Xiang Shan's spirit escaped from the evil calamity, and immediately entered the realm of clear mirror and still water.

He said with a smile: "What qualifications does an idiot who has practiced martial arts crookedly repeat what I said here?"

"What?" The dog seemed to be irritated: "You bastard, you actually said that my authentic practice of imitating beasts is crooked?"

"The way of imitating animals is the first emphasis on simulation, the limbs and torso are no different from the living body. In this way, pretending to be a pet, even if someone touches it, you can't feel the difference, so you can steal information. The second is speed. If you can't escape from birth, How can the intelligence stealer achieve the task? Therefore, among the [-] martial arts designed by the martial ancestor Xiangshan, it is the weakest and the least suitable for transforming into frontal combat. After all, there are hundreds of martial arts in this world. A prosthetic body design that is more suitable for combat than a deformed gray wolf. Those designs can either perform other assassination techniques, or have a corresponding design of military martial arts. Why cut your feet to fit your shoes and make yourself a dog skin in order to learn the imitation of beasts? What is the point of a prosthetic body that is suitable for combat and comes out to kill the enemy without a good camouflage?"

Ulster Granddog has been obsessed with martial arts all his life, but he has never studied the history of the boxing art of imitating beasts, let alone thought about this issue.

There was a crack in his spirit.

At this moment, Xiang Shan exerted force suddenly.He bridged his waist and pushed the dog's prosthetic body off the ground without any effort.At the same time, Xiangshan's back, shoulders, elbows, and palms formed a line, and a strong force shot through like a big gun.

Xiang Shan's outer armor, which was on the verge of collapse, slipped off his arm like a glove, buying him a little space.His arm just stuck out of the dog's mouth.

A scream sounded immediately.

　I'm really sorry, I have suffered from insomnia recently, my biological clock broke down yesterday, and I didn't update it at night, I will make up for it later.Feel sorry.
