Chapter 727: Evil Road

Late at night, everything is quiet.

The roar of the factory machine tools faintly came from a distance.

Chen Shouyi lay on the bed and was doing the most basic tranquility and refining himself.

A large and tiny human body image is reflected in the heart, and dust appears, astronomical and digital information flows into the brain like a tide.

Every part of the body, including the brain, is bright, and there is no shadow. Every cell looks like a small light bulb with electricity, emitting a faint and mysterious light of will.

Like independent living beings.

At this time, his thinking was attracted by the neural network that emits electrical pulses from time to time.

His nerve fibers are astonishingly thick and his nerve endings are extremely dense, like the roots of a tree full of tentacles and bifurcated ones.

If the brain determines intelligence, then the nervous system, including the spinal cord, determines agility.

And both of them are his shortcomings.

Unfortunately, the former can also burn faith values ​​to make up for it, but the latter has no choice but to practice harder.

This leads to the feeling of being unable to follow the heart every time it fights, which cannot be fully realized.

He suddenly felt something: "Maybe it's not impossible!"

He opened his eyes, his eyes shining.

Even as a high school dropout, he knows that 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 could change, he wouldn't want to become shorter.

Thickness?

He sensed it and found that he was already very thick.

Almost twice as many as ordinary people.

And it's even denser.

The most important thing is that directly transforming the nerves is too risky.

The nervous system is quite complex.

Every neural activity involves complex chemical reactions.

Each electrical pulse frequency is different, which represents the difference in the transmission signal. When many nerve cells work in coordination, people can see, hear, smell, taste, feel pain, and even feel happiness and sadness.

This is a chaotic and complex system that moves the whole body with one blow.

In contrast, myelin is much simpler.

It has only three functions:

First, the insulation between the axons and surrounding tissues, such as adjacent axons, is supported to avoid interference, which is equivalent to a layer of insulating layer in the exposed wire.

Second, the transmission of action potential is accelerated through a mechanism called "jump conduction";

Third, the regeneration of axons is guided when some axons are damaged.

Even if it is destroyed, it will not greatly affect neural transmission.

At most, the signal will be slowed down by fifteen times.

In fact, the nervous system of some invertebrates, such as some cephalopods, crustaceans, and insects has no myelin sheath at all.

The mammalian nerve fibers and autonomic postganglionic fibers also do not have myelin sheath. Of course, these gods often exist in the same nerve bundle as myelinated nerve fibers.

The more Chen Shouyi thought about it, the more he felt it was feasible and he couldn't lie down anymore.

He took out the two little ones from his chest, put them on the side, got up from the bed, and walked around excitedly.

The experiences a few days ago made him feel powerless and desperate, and he couldn't wait to have strong strength.

Now his cultivation speed has become slower and slower, almost stagnant, and he has to force him to think on the evil path.

He suddenly stopped, walked to the desk and picked up a cup of cold white, and drank it all in one go.

"Then try it!"

...

Two major principles of natural evolution.

1: Evolution is directionless and random.

2: Just enough.

Life is a miracle of nature, and it is also imperfect, rough, or even pieced together.

Since humans walked upright, the problem of difficult labor has run through the entire human history like a nightmare.

In ancient times, fertility was equivalent to stepping into the gates of hell for women, and it was not until humans invented a caesarean section that could be solved.

Of course, this in turn has also caused the normal natural screening to be interrupted. In the past century, the proportion of big-headed babies has risen sharply, making it increasingly difficult for women to have natural childbirth.

It can be said that since the birth of civilization, human beings have deeply intervened in their own evolutionary process.

...

Chen Shouyi did not make a rash move, but instead went deep into his body and carefully observed the myelin structure and working mode on the nerve fibers.

After more than ten seconds, he realized it in his heart.

In this deep observation of molecules and even atomic levels, there are not many mysteries of organisms, and everything is presented to him clearly.

He found that the reason why myelin can "jump to conduct" signals is mainly because the unmyelinated part between two Schwann cells (a type of glial cell). The axon here is exposed, which is conducive to forming a local current between two adjacent knots, causing the electrical signal to conduct in a jumping manner, greatly accelerating the speed of information transmission.

The next step is simple.

He instantly came up with three countermeasures.

First, reduce the myelin separation on nerve fibers and streamline the structure.

For example, if you originally needed to jump more than ten times, if you only jump six times or even twice, the signal transmission speed will undoubtedly be greatly accelerated.

Second, transform and strengthen Schwann cells and Langfei knots on the myelin to make their work more efficient.

Third, manufacture some superconducting structure.

Of course, Chen Shouyi has no idea about the latter two yet.

But the former can be tried now.

Chen Shouyi took a deep breath and chose a little finger on his left hand to test it.

Most of the Schwann cells were silently decomposed by thoughts, barely revealing the nerve fibers in them, and then lengthening the nearby Schwann cells, covering the original space, and finally fixing the structure.

The transformation is simpler than imagined.

All the cells in his body are like commands of arms to him, and neurons are no exception. Most of them have been completed with just one thought.

In just one or two seconds.

All the little fingers have been transformed.

However, when he opened his eyes, he found that his fingers not only did not become more flexible, but instead became dull and numb. He bent with difficulty, felt and thoughts slowed down several times, and his brows frowned:

"It's really not that simple." He thought:

“Where is the problem?”

"Is it because the nodes are cleared too much, which affects the efficiency of neural signals transmission?"

He continued to experiment.

"It affects the membrane potential again!"

...

"What's wrong with it?"

...

As time passed little by little, the sky gradually became brighter, and Chen Shouyi lay on the bed without any intention of getting up.

Lying till noon.

He suddenly opened his eyes with a look of surprise.

Finally succeeded.

It felt like a body with a thick layer of body removed. He quickly opened the attribute panel:
