Dawn of a New Era Chapter 727: : evil road
Late at night, everything is quiet.
The roar of factory machine tools was faintly heard in the distance.
Chen Shouyi was lying on the bed doing the most basic exercise of tranquility and self-improvement.
A magnificent and molecular-level human body image is mapped in the mind, and the astronomical level of information is flooded into the brain like a tide.
Every part of the body, including the brain, is bright, and there is no shadow without the slightest shadow. Every cell is like a small light bulb with electricity, exuding a faint and mysterious will.
are like independent living entities.
At this time, his mind was attracted by the neural network that constantly emitted electrical impulses from time to time.
His nerve fibers are surprisingly thick, and the nerve endings are extremely dense, like tree roots full of tentacles and forked.
If the brain determines intelligence, then the nervous system, including the spinal cord, determines agility.
Both of these are his shortcomings.
Unfortunately, the former can be compensated by burning faith points, but the latter has nothing to do except for practicing harder.
causes it to feel incompetent in every battle, and it can't be vividly and vividly.
He suddenly felt: "Maybe it's not impossible!"
He opened his eyes, their eyes gleaming.
Even as a high school graduate, he also knows that the factors that affect the speed of nerve transmission are mainly related to height, the thickness of nerve fibers, and nerve myelin.
height.
This cannot be changed.
Even if he can change, he doesn't want to be shorter.
thickness?
He felt it and realized that he was already very thick.
is almost twice that of ordinary people.
and more dense.
The most important thing is that it is too risky to directly modify the nerves.
The nervous system is quite complicated.
Every nerve activity involves complex chemical reactions.
Each time the electric pulse frequency is different, it represents a different signal sent. When many nerve cells work in coordination, people can see, hear, smell, taste, feel the pain, and even feel happy. And sad.
This is a chaotic and complex system that moves the whole body with one movement.
In contrast, the myelin sheath is much simpler.
It has only three functions:
One is to support axons and surrounding tissues, such as insulation between adjacent axons, to avoid interference, which is equivalent to covering an insulating layer in a bare wire.
The second is to speed up the transmission of action potentials through a mechanism called "jump conduction";
The third is to guide the regeneration of axons when some axons are damaged.
Even if it is destroyed, it will not affect nerve transmission.
is only a 15 times slower signal.
In fact, the nervous system of some invertebrates, such as some cephalopods, crustaceans, and insects, has no myelin at all.
The pain-temperature sensory nerve fibers and autonomic postganglionic fibers of mammals also have no myelin sheath. Of course, these gods often exist in the same nerve bundle as the myelinated nerve fibers.
The more Chen Shouyi thinks about it, the more it feels feasible, and he can't lie down anymore.
He took the two small dots out of his chest, put them aside, got up from the bed, and walked around excitedly.
The experience a few days ago made him feel powerless and desperate, and he couldn't wait to be strong.
Now his cultivation speed has been slower and slower, almost stagnating, and he has to force him to think about the evil road.
He stopped suddenly, walked to the desk, picked up a cold white cup, and drank it.
"Try it then!"
……
two principles of natural evolution.
一: Evolution is directionless and random.
二: Just enough.
Life is a miracle of nature. It is also imperfect, rough, and even patchwork.
Since humans walked upright, the problem of dystocia has run through the entire human history like a nightmare.
In ancient times, for women, childbirth was equivalent to stepping into a ghost gate. It was not solved until humans invented the caesarean section.
Of course, this in turn has caused normal natural screening to be interrupted. Over the past century, the proportion of large-headed babies has risen sharply, and it has become more difficult for women to give birth naturally.
It can be said that since the birth of civilization, humans have deeply intervened in their own evolutionary process.
……
Chen Shouyi did not venture into the body, but went deep into the body, carefully observing the myelin structure on the nerve fibers and the working mode.
More than ten seconds later, he understood in his heart.
In this kind of in-depth observation at the molecular or even atomic level, there are no more mysteries in living things, and everything is clearly presented in front of him.
He discovered that the reason why the myelin sheath can "jump-transmit" signals is mainly due to the non-myelinated part between two Schwann cells (a type of glial cell). The axon at this place is bare, which is conducive to the formation of local currents between two adjacent junctions, so that electrical signals are conducted in a jumping manner, which greatly accelerates the speed of information transmission.
Then it's easy.
He came up with three countermeasures in an instant.
One is to reduce the myelin knots on the nerve fibers and streamline the structure.
For example, if you need to jump more than ten times, if you only jump six times or even twice, the signal transmission speed will undoubtedly be greatly accelerated.
The second is to transform the Schwann cells and Langfei knots on the strengthened myelin sheath to make the work more efficient.
The third is to create some kind of superconducting structure.
Of course, the latter two Chen Shouyi have no idea yet.
But the former can be tried now.
Chen Shouyi took a deep breath and chose a little finger of his left hand to experiment.
Most of the Schwann cells were silently broken down by the thought, exposing the nerve fibers in them, and then the nearby Schwann cells were elongated to cover the original space, and finally the structure was fixed.
The transformation is easier than imagined.
All the cells in his body, to him, are like the instructions of an arm, and neurons are no exception. Most of them have been completed with a single thought.
in just one or two seconds.
The little fingers have all been remodeled.
However, when he opened his eyes, he found that not only did his fingers not become more flexible~IndoMTL.com~, they became dull and numb. He bends with difficulty, feeling and thinking slower for several beats, and frowning. :
"It really isn't that simple." He was thoughtful:
"Where is the problem?"
"Is it because too many nodes are cleared, which affects the transmission efficiency of neural signals?"
He continued to experiment.
"Affected membrane potential again!"
……
"So what's not considered?"
……
A little bit of time passed, and the sky gradually brightened, and Chen Shouyi was lying on the bed with no intention of getting up.
lay down until noon.
He suddenly opened his eyes, with a look of surprise on his face.
