Chapter 7
Zhang Xun walked up to Eden cautiously. The other party shrank back as if reflexively, but the expression on his face was full of confusion.
"I must admit that the instinctive emotions and conditioned reflexes of the human body have made me a little out of control." With a strange tone, as if he didn't know how to use his lips and tongue, Eden spoke the most emotionless words with the most trembling voice . With such a weird combination, Zhang Xun once again had that kind of... dumbfounding feelings.
Zhang Xun booed softly, trying to use his softest voice to say, "Relax, you need time to adapt to your body."
"I now have high levels of adrenaline, norepinephrine, ACTH and cortisol in my system and I need drugs that suppress these hormones."
"You are now in a state of stress response because you are afraid." Zhang Xun said softly, "You don't understand what you feel, so you trigger the Fight or Flight response, your body instinct tells you that you may be in danger , makes you want to run away. But you can't use your body, so you can't run away. It's a normal human instinct. You don't need drugs, listen to me, and you will calm down slowly."
Eden just stared at him with those blue-gray eyes, "You mean to use deep breathing and other physical relaxation techniques to counteract the stress response."
Zhang Xun has a slightly bigger head. Facing an artificial intelligence that knows all theoretical knowledge and objective facts and data is far smarter than humans like them, it is really difficult for you to pose as an authority...
That's why this is an extremely dangerous plan... Zhang Xun must be careful with every step he takes, otherwise they may usher in the end of Paradise Lost sooner than expected.
"Although you know the theoretical knowledge, the theory is far from the actual experience." Zhang Xun maintained a neutral expression that was not aggressive but did not reveal any emotions. This expression was practiced by the psychiatrist. It was only two years of training, a mask that would not be cracked due to inner turmoil. Because Eden has the ability to detect lies through micro-expressions, if you want to control it, you can't put all your thoughts on your face. He said patiently, "Follow me, put your hands on your stomach, and breathe in."
Eden watched Zhang Xun's movements, and finally raised his right hand, imitating Zhang Xun's way and putting his hand on his abdomen.
Zhang Xun inhaled, slowly raised his hands along with his abdomen, paused for a few seconds, and then exhaled through his lips. Eden worked hard to learn his breathing pattern, and after a few times, he finally caught up with him. The two sat on the ground facing each other like this, constantly inhaling, exhaling, inhaling, exhaling... After about five minutes, Eden really felt the kind of heart beating, sweating and uncontrollable The shivering discomfort subsided a lot.
Zhang Xun felt a little relieved to see that Eden had mastered the method of breathing and relaxing so quickly, and smiled slightly. He stretched out his hand tentatively, and said softly, "I need to put your skull on. Now your electronic brain is exposed, it's too dangerous."
Eden said, "Okay."
But when Zhang Xun reached out to help Eden, the other party suddenly pushed him. Unprepared, Zhang Xun was hit and fell to the ground, the back of his head hit the ground, dizzy. Eden stood up, staggered like a person who couldn't use his own legs, and ran for two steps before falling to the ground. Zhang Xun got up from the ground, wiped the back of his head with his hands to make sure there was no bleeding, then walked up to Eden who was trying to get up, knelt down and sighed, "You are so smart, you should know that you have no chance of escape, right?"
"I didn't want to run away." Eden distinguished, but his expression became more and more blank, "I don't know what's going on."
Another escape impulse created by the body's stress response... Is it because I tried to touch him?
This time Zhang Xun stretched out his hands and showed his fingers in front of Eden to show that there was nothing in his hands that could cause harm to the other party, "Please try to control your body with your reason? I can't help you Hit it a few times."
But at this moment, a hoarse voice shouted from outside the warehouse door, "What happened! Is it trying to escape?" Someone was already trying to hit the door. Zhang Xun immediately yelled, "Nothing, you are not allowed to come in!!!"
His voice was stern and resolute, and Eden flinched unconsciously, his gray-blue eyes opened wide, like a frightened little animal...
Although it is a "little animal" much stronger than Zhang Xun.
Even so, Zhang Xun still felt a little softness in his heart. He stretched out his hand again and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm your mechanic, and I will take good care of you."
This time, when his hand touched the somewhat cold skin on Eden's left shoulder, Eden only trembled slightly, probably because he was surprised by the feeling of skin contact. Zhang Xun's warm body temperature made Eden feel a little...comfortable.
Zhang Xun helped Eden stand up, and led him staggeringly towards the operating table step by step. Eden tried hard to control his legs, and kept his eyes on Zhang Xun's way of walking while walking. After placing Eden on the operating table, Zhang Xun put on medical gloves and installed an alloy skull on Eden's head. There are even artificial hair follicles planted on the scalp. As long as it takes a long time, the hair will grow to cover the joints of the skull, and Eden will look no different from ordinary human men. No one will know that his brain is a computer.
