Lv Siqin is a famous chief physician of Lu General Hospital, specializing in difficult neurological diseases and neuropsychological disorders. Every day, people come to see him in an endless stream. It often depends on scalpers to get his number.
Today, he received a young patient. He looked different from his former patients. He was beautiful, young, full of vitality, and looked very energetic, but there was some anxiety between his eyebrows.
"Let me see... Your name is Xia Kun, right?"
"Yes, I am."
"Don't be nervous, sit down and speak slowly."
Lv Siqin kindly invites Xia Kun to sit opposite him,
"17 years old this year? Is that in high school?"
"Hmm... I studied in Hongmei No. 1 Middle School in senior three this year."
"So."
The psychological pressure of senior three students is very great, especially in Hongmei No. 1 Middle School. Lv Siqin closes his medical record book and looks up and down at Xia Kun,
"What are the symptoms?"
"It's about sleep, but... not all of it."
"You didn't come to me because of insomnia, did you? I think you look good."
"Hmm... I don't know how to explain it." Xia Kun felt the back of his head.
"Please describe the symptoms." Lv Siqin has limited patience.
"Recently, when I sleep and dream, I can always clearly remember what happened in my dream......"
Lv Siqin was stunned. "Is that all?"
"Also," Xia Kun explained, "almost from the moment I fell asleep, I dreamed that I was staying in a completely closed white space. I could feel the passage of time, which was almost the same as the passage of time in real life."
"That's just a miscarriage of justice, isn't it? What's the basis?"
"It's not a wrong judgment, doctor." Xia Kun reminded Dr. Lv, "It's a correct judgment."
"How do you know it is correct?" Lv Siqin raised his eyebrows. "You just said that your dream was empty."
"I can't say this feeling," Xia Kun paused. "I remember all the things I thought in my dream when I woke up. One night, I was in a panic when I was free. I suddenly figured out in my dream how to solve an exercise that I couldn't solve in the daytime. After I figured it out in my dream, I got up immediately and took draft paper to calculate. The result was exactly the same as I thought."
Thinking normally in dreams? Lv Siqin has some interest.
"... How long has this situation lasted?"
"One week."
Lv Siqin scratched Xia Kun's eyes, then listened to Xia Kun's heart rate with a stethoscope and did some routine examinations.
Lv Siqin took down the stethoscope and said, "Do you feel tired?"
"There are some. I usually only sleep for about five hours."
"I see." Lv Siqin nodded, and he tuttered. "According to my inference, your symptoms now should be [lucid dreams]... This should actually be regarded as the category of cognitive psychology, which is a bit out of range for me."
"A lucid dream?"
"In other words, you will keep a clear state in your dream, which is called [Lucid Dreaming] in psychology."
When Lv Siqin was young, he studied abroad and dabbled a little. "You have the ability to think and remember when you are awake in your dreams, which is a natural gift of some people
"Is that harmful to the body?" This is Xia Kun's biggest concern.
Lv Siqin shook his head. "At present, the medical profession generally believes that there is no harm in lucid dreams, either physically or psychologically; But there is little chance that people will have lucid dreams all their lives, and most of them happen in childhood. It is very rare for people like you to keep the same state for several days in a row... Well, I'll give you some medicine to calm the nerves and fortify the brain first, and you can take it for a few days. If the situation still doesn't improve, I personally know a psychologist who does dream interpretation research, You can contact her if necessary. "
Then Lv Siqin wrote his friend's contact information on a piece of paper and handed it to Xia Kun. Xia Kun respectfully took the letter with both hands, folded it and put it in his pocket.
"OK, thank you, doctor, for your trouble."
"You're welcome."
In this way, the patient's problem is solved.
Although he was also curious about the child's future situation, Lv Siqin could hardly believe his story.
After all, real lucid dreams are something that many people only do once or twice in their lifetime. If they can really do any thinking during sleep without delaying their rest, it means that they can maintain their thinking state 24 hours a day.
In addition, many relevant studies have shown that people who can control dreams can create objects in their dreams, or sneak into other people's dreams, or even affect reality itself, depending on self-awareness. Of course, this is only in the theoretical stage. The famous science fiction blockbuster Inception proposed a similar concept, which is not just science fiction.
If the child really has the ability to have unlimited lucid dreams, his future will indeed be limitless.
However, Lv Siqin is a neurologist rather than a psychologist after all. Although these two aspects are inextricably linked, they are still separated from each other. The future of dream research is not his concern.
Xia Kun came out of the department and came to the corridor. A girl with a small bag in her arms rubbed her eyes and came to him.
"How about... Xia Kun, what did the doctor say?"
Xia Kun shook his head. "He said it was OK. He said my symptoms were [lucid dreams], and everyone could have them."
"Well... is there a prescription for you?"
Xia Kun sighed and said, "Judging from his tone, I feel that it's a random prescription for calming the nerves and invigorating the brain, which is quite unreliable. Those drugs are expensive and useless, and I didn't suffer from insomnia at first, so don't take them."
"No, I'd better buy it! It's a scalper that my mother asked someone to buy. Most people can't get the number. This doctor is very famous. You'd better believe him and go get the medicine." The girl said with a very serious face. Xia Kun had to nod, "I'll get it later."
"By the way, I haven't given you 200 yuan for the registration fee..." Xia Kun said that she was about to take money out of her bag, but the girl refused.
"It doesn't matter! My mother told me not to accept your money. After all, our family is also taken care of by you... Let's go to prescribe medicine. The monthly exam is coming soon, and we should hurry back to review."
"Well, good."
The girl who came to the hospital with Xia Kun is called Lin Anran. She is the daughter of Xia Kun's landlady and Xia Kun's current deskmate.
Xia Kun was a key senior high school in the county from the rural junior high school. At the beginning, he could only live in the school. The school has a junior high school department. Most students have known each other since junior high school, so they have their own circle.
Xia Kun is an honest student in the traditional sense. He is addicted to learning and never communicates, so he has not been integrated into the class; Dormitory roommates from different villages only like to discuss game topics all day long. They often climb over the wall to go to Internet cafes at night, which affects Xia Kun's study. He has the idea of moving out.
Lin Anran and Xia Kun are at the same table. She is very beautiful and belongs to a very attractive type.
Although she has no feelings for love, she still often reports ambiguous affairs with the boys in her class; The head teacher was very relieved that Xia Kun, who was only interested in reading the books of sages and sages, was too lazy to change their seats. The relationship between them was inexplicably harmonious when they were at the same table.
There was a vacant room in Enron's house opposite the school. After hearing Xia Kun's troubles, she discussed this matter with her mother; When Enron's mother saw Xia Kun, she thought the child was very simple and reliable, so she took him in and said hello to the head teacher for him. The rent was 400 yuan a month, and she would leave a share for Xia Kun if she ate at home.
In general, Xia Kun's achievements in most science subjects are very excellent. The biggest weakness is English. He began to learn English in junior high school. The junior high school teacher's pronunciation is very non-standard, which makes Xia Kun laughed at in his class's English class. The English teacher also dislikes him.
His English, which he often barely passed, kept his overall score around the top 20 in the class. His grade ranking was just stuck in the first line. The average student was 20 to 30 percent away from him in English. His goal now was to get one. His father assured him that if he could get one, his family would support him to go to college even if he could. After all, it was not easy to get a college student from the countryside.
But since the symptoms of lucid dreams appeared, Xia Kun has been worried about whether there is something wrong with her body. Nobody can get sick these days. For example, Lin Anran and her family were said to be quite well-off. Since her father had a car accident and was unconscious in the hospital, in order to raise the cost of treatment, their family has also suffered a sharp decline. These years, she has relied on her mother to support her,
Now that the doctor said it was OK, he was a little relieved. In this case, go to bed early every day and remember words in your dreams.
Xia Kun's head sank and soon entered his lucid dream.
Soon, Xia Kun came to a vast white space.
Although the field of vision and light are very bright, if you want to remember words, it is still a little bit without textbooks
At this time, a light green translucent screen suddenly appeared in front of Xia Kun, and the screen read:
[System prompt: After loading the system configuration, welcome to the dream space system]
