Chapter 16 Chess
Baoan Road Public Library.
Yang Chu stood in front of the rows of bookshelfs and still began to search for the books he wanted to read as yesterday.
Several of them were read by him yesterday. In addition, the scope of his choice of books has also expanded from content such as sleep and self-awareness to various circulatory systems within the human body and some books related to the brain.
After about seven or eight books selected, Yang Chu walked to a secluded corner of the browsing room with his books in his arms and began to pay attention to reading.
After browsing yesterday's reading, Yang Chu has found that he is now reading very fast. In addition to the necessary energy to maintain the operation of his own system, he can almost maintain a long time to fully enter the reading state.
Yang Chu probably understood this a little.
Ordinary people can actually enter a state of highly focused reading like him, forgetting to eat and forgetting themselves.
In Yang Chu's view, this "I" in selflessness actually refers to a person's subconscious instinct to some extent.
When a person is fully focused on something, because he is too focused, his brain consciousness will ignore the subconscious feedback of many aspects such as muscle soreness, mental fatigue, excretion needs, hunger, etc. caused by sitting for a long time.
Naturally, Yang Chu is more likely to reach such a high level of concentration than most people, even if he needs to separate a small part of his spirit to maintain the circulation, breathing and other systems in his body.
Moreover, Yang Chu also discovered that although he consumed a lot of food, it was used to maintain physical functions and restore physical injuries, and to improve physical fitness after high-intensity exercise last night. The proportion of energy consumed in these aspects may not reach 50%.
Almost half of it was consumed by his brain.
Normally, a person's brain only accounts for 2% of his body's weight, and consumes about 20% of his body's energy.
Yang Chu's brain consumption has far exceeded this proportion.
Calculated from the calories Yang Chu intake, he ate enough food for other normal adult men for 7-10 days in just one or two days. The value of these foods being converted into calories and consumed by the brain is absolutely terrifying.
Yang Chu estimated that this was his brain consciousness, and his ability to maintain the operation of major systems in his body was becoming more and more convenient.
In addition, he only needs to enter a short sleep in the water that is like a "maternal fetus" and clean up the impurities produced by the brain's operation to maintain a long period of time. It should be related to the high-energy consumption of the brain.
Moreover, when Yang Chu stood in front of the bookshelf of these libraries, he found something that almost he could remember the content of the books he read yesterday, even if it was a quick glance.
It seems that after losing his subconscious instinct to maintain the distribution of heat in the human body, his brain has obtained more and more energy and nutrients in continuous multi-threaded work, and it also greatly improved his memory, computing power, understanding, and logical thinking.
From the short exercise last night, physical fitness has improved to a certain extent. Now that I realize that my brain seems to be changing, Yang Chu has become more and more interested in the exploration of the secrets of the human body.
I flipped through the books in front of me page by page. I don’t know how long it took, a familiar voice sounded in Yang Chu’s ear again: “You are really attentive to read books.”
Yang Chu raised his head and saw Xu Xi wearing a simple and convex dress at this time. He smiled and said, "There are many answers in the book that I don't know."
"Your condition today looks much better than yesterday." Xu Xi stood aside, looking at Yang Chu, with a vague surprise in his slightly shy smile.
"I slept well yesterday." Yang Chu closed the book in his hand and patted it gently, "It has temporarily solved the problem of sleep, but I am still looking for a better way."
"Then congratulations."
Xu Xi smiled, noticed the books on Yang Chu, and pointed, "I have read this book, and I feel that it can really make people know me better."
"Is that? I didn't find this, I just think that he can refer to some aspects such as brain, body, and self-regulation."
The book in Yang Chu's hand is called "The Body Never Forgot", which is a book for treating psychological trauma.
Most of the content is useless to Yang Chu, but some of them have certain reading value when exploring the brain, understanding the mind and nerves.
"Xu Xi, let's have a meal, do you want to be together?"
At the entrance of the library, among the men and women who were about to leave the library, a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses shouted to Xu Xi.
Yang Chu recognized these people as staff members of the Baoandao Public Library.
Only then did he notice that the wall clock on the browsing room wall showed that it was already noon.
The library is closed for two hours at noon and it will open until 2 pm. The staff will basically go out for dinner.
"No need, director, you go!" Xu Xi did not agree to the middle-aged director's greeting, but just waved his hand with a smile.
After these people left, Yang Chu smiled and said, "Don't you have dinner with your colleagues? Your immediate boss is here too."
"No." Xu Xi smiled and shook his head, "They eat very expensively, I'll just eat bento."
"Then let's go together." Yang Chu stood up from his seat, "I ate a box lunch yesterday, and I'll treat you today."
"Box lunch?" Xu Xi tilted his head slightly, and there seemed to be a little smile in his eyes.
"Then let's have a box lunch." Yang Chu nodded.
"Then I'll go call."
Xu Xi did not refuse this time, but instead smiled and called the office area to order food.
Soon, the takeaway guy delivered the lunch box they ordered, a total of three servings, char siu goose legs, and a common Hong Kong-style fast food.
Yang Chu paid the money, but the two were still at yesterday's place. Xu Xi ate one and Yang Chu ate two.
After eating the lunch box, Xu Xi packed the lunch box and found a box of chess from his work station, "It's okay now, why don't we play chess?"
"It's OK."
Yang Chu did not refuse. The time for the library to open has not yet come, and in principle it is not open to the public. He would not ask Xu Xi, the staff member, to make an exception for him because of this trivial matter.
Chess pieces spread out.
Yang Chu first introduced a cannon, and Xu Xi followed the Pegasus, and the two of them went back and forth, and the situation soon unfolded.
Xu Xi's chess path is more changeable than Yang Chu thinks. It seems to be a defensive move, but the layout is profound. Often, in some ordinary ways, a killer move suddenly comes.
Yang Chu's chess skills were not strong, and he did not spend too much brainpower to calculate the entire chess game, and soon the situation showed a certain disadvantage.
"Oh, this step shouldn't be like this, you'll get vaulted, or the car will be eaten."
