Starting from the lifting of human restrictions

Chapter 16 Playing Chess
Poon Road Public Library.

Standing in front of the rows of bookshelves, Yang Chu still began to rummage through the books he wanted to read just like yesterday.

There are several of them that he didn't have time to read yesterday. In addition, the range of books he chose also expanded from sleep and self-awareness to various circulatory systems in the human body and some books related to the brain.

After choosing about seven or eight books, Yang Chu walked to a secluded corner of the browsing room with the books and began to pay attention to reading.

After yesterday's reading and browsing, Yang Chu has found that his current reading speed is very fast. In addition to the necessary efforts to maintain the operation of his own system, he can almost stay in the reading state for a long time.

Yang Chu probably understood this.

Ordinary people can actually enter into a state of highly focused reading like him, forgetting sleep and eating, and forgetting oneself.

In Yang Chu's view, the "I" in this self-forgetfulness actually refers to people's subconscious instincts to some extent.

When a person is concentrating on something, because he is too focused, his brain will ignore the subconscious feedback of muscle soreness, mental fatigue, excretion needs, hunger and many other aspects caused by sitting for a long time.

Naturally, it is easier for Yang Chu to achieve such a high level of concentration than most people, even if he needs to devote a small part of his energy to maintain the operation of the circulation, breathing and other systems in his body.

Moreover, Yang Chu also discovered that although he took in a lot of various foods, they can be used to maintain body functions, recover from physical injuries, and improve his physique after the high-intensity exercise last night. The proportion may not reach 50.00%.

Almost half of it was consumed by his brain.

For a normal person, a person's brain only accounts for 2% of the body weight, and consumes about 20% of the body's energy.

And Yang Chu's brain consumption has far exceeded this ratio.

Calculated from the calorie intake of Yang Chu, in just one or two days, he ate enough food for other normal adult men for 7-10 days.These foods are converted into calories, and the value consumed by the brain is absolutely terrifying.

Yang Chu estimates that this is the reason why his brain consciousness is becoming more and more handy in maintaining the various systems in the body running at all times.

Also, he only needs to be in the water, enter a short sleep like a "mother fetus", and clean up the impurities generated by the operation of the brain, and he can stay awake for a long time, which should also be related to the high energy consumption of the brain.

Moreover, standing in front of the bookshelves in these libraries, Yang Chu also found out that he almost remembered the contents of the books he read yesterday, even if he glanced at them.

It seems that after losing the subconscious instinct to maintain the heat distribution of the human body, his brain obtains more and more energy and nutrients in the continuous multi-threaded work, and also makes his memory, calculation and understanding, as well as logical thinking, etc. It seems to have been greatly improved.

From last night's short-term exercise, his physical fitness has been improved to a certain extent, and now he has noticed that his brain seems to be changing. Yang Chu has become more and more interested in exploring the mysteries of the human body.

He flipped through the book in front of him page by page, and after an unknown amount of time, a familiar voice resounded in Yang Chu's ear again beside his seat: "You really concentrate on reading."

Yang Chu raised his head and saw that it was Xu Xi, who was wearing a simple and protruding dress that Hong Kong Islanders looked at 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 and looked at Yang Chu with a slightly shy smile, a little surprised.

"I slept well yesterday." Yang Chu closed the book in his hand and patted it lightly, "It's a temporary solution to the sleep problem, but I'm still looking for a better way."

"Congratulations to you then."

Xu Xi smiled, noticed the book on Yang Chu's body, and pointed, "I have read this book too, and I feel that it can really help people to know themselves better."

"Really? I didn't find this. I just think he can refer to some aspects of the brain, body and self-regulation."

The book in Yang Chu's hands is called "The Body Never Forgets", which is a book for the treatment of psychological trauma.

Most of the content is not useful to Yang Chu, but some of them have a certain reading value to spy on the brain and understand the content of the mind and nerves.

"Xu Xi, let's go to dinner, do you want to join us?"

At the entrance of the library, among the men and women who were about to leave the library, a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses shouted to Xu Xi.

Yang Chu recognized these people as the staff of the Baoan Road Public Library.

He also noticed that the wall clock on the wall of the browsing room showed that it was noon.

The library is closed for two hours at noon, and will open at two o'clock in the afternoon, and the staff will basically go out to eat.

"No need, curator, let's go!" Xu Xi didn't answer the greeting from the middle-aged curator, but just waved his hand with a smile.

After these people left, Yang Chu said with a smile, "Don't eat with colleagues? Your immediate boss is also there."

"No." Xu Xi smiled and shook his head, "They eat very expensive food, I'll just eat the bento."

"Then let's go together." Yang Chu stood up from his seat, "I ate your lunch yesterday, and I invite you today."

"Bentou?" Xu Xi tilted her head slightly, with a smile in her eyes.

"Then the box lunch." Yang Chu nodded.

"Then I'll call."

Xu Xi did not refuse this time, but smiled and called to the office area to order food.

Soon, the delivery boy delivered the lunch that the two of them asked for, three servings in total, barbecued pork goose legs, a common Hong Kong-style fast food.

Yang Chu paid the money, and the two were still at the same place yesterday. Xu Xi ate one and Yang Chu ate two.

After eating the lunch box, Xu Xi packed up the lunch box and found a box of chess from her work station, "I'm fine now, why don't we play chess?"

"also."

Yang Chu didn't refuse. The time for the library to open has not yet come. In principle, it is not open to the public, and he will not ask Xu Xi, a staff member, to make an exception for him because of this trivial matter.

The chess pieces are spread out.

Yang Chu first made a head shot, Xu Xi followed Pegasus, the two of you came and went, and the situation soon unfolded.

From Xu Xi's chess path is more changeable than Yang Chu thought. It seems to be on the defensive, but the layout is far-reaching. Often, in some unremarkable ways, a killer move suddenly comes.

Yang Chu's chess skills are not strong, and he did not spend too much brainpower to calculate the overall chess game, and soon the situation presented a certain disadvantage.

"Oh, this step shouldn't be done like this, vaulting, or the car will be eaten."

Just when Yang Chu's situation was in jeopardy, a voice suddenly appeared next to him.
