Bai Yutang, Zhan Zhao and others drove to the psychiatric hospital near the ruins of the ancient tomb. After getting off the bus, everyone split up. Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao went to the mental hospital to ask the doctor, Qin Ou and Bai Chi went to the ancient tomb, and Ma Han and Zhao Hu went to a nearby village to ask the nearby villagers.
This mental hospital is opened in such a remote place because most of the people living here are seriously ill patients, which may sometimes hurt people. It is quiet and barren.......The cost is also relatively cheap.
"But the doctors here live an inhuman life all day long."
The attending physician of the three of them, surnamed Fan, and named Fan Ming Da, greeted Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang into the office, and took out Zhan Zhao's book and asked him to sign it.
Zhan Zhao was a little surprised,
"Dr Fan also likes psychology?"
"Yes, I have learned a lot."
Doctor Fan nodded,
"Sometimes when we treat patients and prescribe medicines, we still need a lot of psychological intervention."
Zhan Zhao nodded and looked around Dr Fan's office. It was clean and tidy. The key was that there were a lot of messy gadgets hanging on the wall. Most of them are crooked paintings, fabrics, and paper-cutting...
"It's all made by patients."
Dr Fan smiled,
"Nothing is normal. I like to do some handicrafts with them. Doing handicrafts can calm people down."
Zhan Zhao smiled,
"Your relationship with the patient seems to be pretty good."
"Haha, they all treat me as a father."
He said half jokingly.
Dr Fan is very old, close to seventy years old. In his own words, he's so confused that he can't eat enough or die of hunger. However, watching them get better and leave one by one, he was still very happy, so after retiring, he still accepted the rehiring.
Zhan Zhao is an expert in psychology. Just by talking to the old doctor, you can feel that although he's quite casual, he actually cares about this job very much. He can maintain this enthusiasm when he's so old. He should be a caring person.
"Those three patients..."
Bai Yutang made a point
"Oh..."
Doctor Fan slapped his head lightly.
"The new nurses have no experience at all, so they let them run out accidentally. I don't know what they did outside. I heard that after hurting people, they all died... Believe me, it's impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, the old doctor was a little excited.
"Dr Fan, I would like to ask, have there been any health problems with them?"
Zhan Zhao asked,
"Our forensic doctor found that there seemed to be something wrong with their bodies."
"Oh, I know, the bones are aging, right?"
Both Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao raised their eyebrows, sure enough, there was a cause.
"Yes, you know too, they are wearing such clothes, and their bones are still more than a hundred years old."
Zhan Zhao was a little helpless,
"We were really taken aback at the beginning."
"Oh... Haha!"
The old forensic doctor thought. He couldn't help but laugh, and shook his head,
"This... Oh, how can I say it, there are very few people with particularly good luck in this world, but there are even fewer people with bad luck like them!"
"Let's listen."
Zhan Zhao was very interested in these patients.
"These people were not born well, and their parents also have this disease."
Dr Fan pulled out their cases for Zhan Zhao and handed them over,
"Their bone aging is inherited."
"Inheritance?"
"In our place, many people's grandparents have gone to Nanyang to work. Most of the people in this village have been in the old power plant. Isn't this because of radiation? Many of them have sequelae, so most of them have this problem, and there are many other diseases, and they don't live long. Many children are born with intellectual insufficiency, and it's also because of this."
"Oh..."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang understood.
"Then... Are the three of them living in hallucinations all the time, or are they occasionally ill and occasionally normal?"
Zhan Zhao then asked.
"Occasionally!"
Dr Fan said,
"The three of them are still young. I have always been puzzled by the idea that they would feel that they are from the Qing dynasty, haha..."
Having said that, he laughed embarrassedly, took out a thick letter from the drawer, and handed it to Zhan Zhao,
"You said that if I had the courage to send it out earlier, how good is that?"
Zhan Zhao was a little puzzled and found that the letter turned out to be the address of the police station, and he asked him to sign for it.
Bai Yutang asked him somewhat puzzled,
"Dr Fan, you are..."
"The delusion must be cured, and the pathogen must be found!"
Dr Fan sat down and said to Zhan Zhao,
"The delusions of their Qing Dynasty people may have something to do with the fact that they have been living near the drama team. But I never found the cause. The scenes they performed over and over again didn't look like any repertoire or repertoire, but more like real scenes, such as canonization, the celebration of the coronation of the new emperor, and even the daily life of talking and doing things, etc., All of which are very realistic. Talking or something, that's simply the ancients."
"Oh?"
Zhan Zhao felt even more incredible, and asked with a smile,
"Then are there any facts about the ones they played?"
"Yes!"
Mr. Fan found a lot of information. On the bookshelf on one wall, there is all the information of each patient, which is very detailed, and they are all recorded by hand.
However, Zhan Zhao took the materials of the three people and compared them with the historical materials that Dr Fan looked for. It was indeed something that happened in the past.
"In this way, it's more like listening to the ancestors."
Zhan Zhao said, opening the envelope,
"What does Mr Fan want to ask?"
"I wanted to send this letter to you before. What I want to ask is ...Can memory be inherited?"
Doctor Fan said seriously.
Zhan Zhao was stunned, and asked,
"Mr Fan has read Ma Lei's discussion of 《 Memory and Inheritance 》, right?"
"That's right."
Doctor Fan nodded,
"After I had this idea, I started looking for books in this area, but I didn't expect it to be there!"
"What memory and inheritance?"
Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao in confusion.
"There are many supernatural phenomena in our daily lives. One of the most famous ones is the memory of past lives. Have you heard of it?"
Zhan Zhao asked with a smile.
Bai Yutang nodded immediately,
"Naturally I have heard of it! Do you keep the memories of your previous life, isn't this a lie?"
"It's hard to say whether it's a lie, but humans do have things that have been preserved in memory. And according to the laws of biological evolution. In theory, the memories of people's ancestors will be preserved for generations! In the 95% unexplored brain of humans."
Zhan Zhao habitually raised his legs and clasped his hands on his knees. This is the posture he often adopts when thinking and analyzing things seriously.
"We are born to forage, court, and nurture, including the infant language that scientists have been studying before. It's also a universal genetic phenomenon."
"Imagine that most of the human brain are all blank, which is similar to a warehouse. All the retained and rarely used memories are sealed inside, and a small part of the outside space is used to store some knowledge and memories that we need in daily life. There's still a part of the gap, enough for us to record the memory of this life."
Zhan Zhao vividly analyzes the human brain,
"If the brain is fully developed, we are likely to remember the memory of the ancestors or even the generation of apes or monkeys. Imagine what kind of situation is that like?!"
"It's for sure that you're crazy!"
Bai Yutang shook his head,
"I understand, the so-called past life memory is probably because it opened part of the memory inherited from the previous generation. However, the keeper of memory is the participant in the event, so it feels as if I have remembered what happened in my previous life!"
"The scientific community does have such an argument. Of course, there are still fierce debates. Some people believe this kind of thing. If it can be inherited, someone must believe that it cannot be inherited."
Zhan Zhao finished speaking and saw Dr Fan,
"Dr Fan, do you think that the mental illness of the three of them is actually because they have a part of genetic memory, which caused them... Their brains are dysfunctional, so they can't distinguish between reality and illusion?"
"Yes, yes!"
Doctor Fan nodded quickly,
"That's what I think."
"Are there any similar patients?"
"No, just the three of them."
The more Doctor Fan thought about it, the more regretful he stomped.
"You seem very upset."
Bai Yutang saw that Dr Fan's mood seemed not right, and asked,
"What happened?"
Doctor Fan looked at the two of them, stood up, went to the door and closed the door of the office, lowered his voice and said,
"I did something that violates professional ethics."
Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other. What professional ethics did such an old doctor violate?!
"I gave them the treatment that didn't conform to the procedure."
Dr Fan was a little nervous when he spoke.
"I told them that those fantasies were memories left by their ancestors, and they forged documents and data in an attempt to convince them."
"Is this a violation?"
Bai Yutang asked Zhan Zhao.
Zhan Zhao nodded lightly,
"Because the theory has not been confirmed, it is considered a test for treatment, not to mention that it has been falsified, which is indeed illegal."
"What about the result of the treatment?"
Bai Yutang asked.
"They are all right."
Dr Fan whispered,
"It took them about a month to distinguish between the memories of their ancestors and the current memories, and gradually began to return to normal, with fewer delusions and confusion!"
"That's it."
Zhan Zhao thinks it's possible that even those who are not the memories of their ancestors can get such a treatment effect.
"Acter that, why did they escape? They still appeared in the ancient tomb?"
Here, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang deliberately concealed the lottery winning.
"I really don't know this. I've been wondering if there was a deviation during the treatment. In short... I shouldn't be able to get rid of it."
"That may not be the case."
Zhan Zhao comforted him,
"Are there any clues you can provide?"
The old doctor shook his head and gave Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang all the information.
"There are only these for the time being and nothing else."
"Okay."
The two stood up and asked if they could take a look at the deceased's room and their belongings.
Dr Fan immediately took the two of them.
....
Zhao Hu and Ma Han were strolling around the village. This is a small village with small buildings built. Many people rent houses for migrant workers. There are some common hardware stores on the street. It feels like they should be very rich.
"Brother Ma, if you win 10 million, how would you spend it?"
Zhao Hu asked Ma Han suddenly.
Ma Han looked at the shops and houses outside, and shook his head,
"I haven't thought about it."
"Why haven't you thought about it?"
Ma Han was a little weak,
"This kind of thing is simply impossible to happen. What do you want to do?"
"Why is it impossible!"
"Because I don't buy lottery tickets at all."
Ma Han announced, suddenly pointing his finger forward.
Zhao Hu followed his finger and looked at it, and saw that there was a welfare lottery betting station in front, and there was a somewhat old banner hanging on the storefront.
"That lottery ticket was bought here?"
"It's possible."
Ma Han took out a cigarette and lighted it, and asked Zhao Hu,
"Do you have any change?"
"There is."
Zhao Hu took out his pocket, took out some change, and asked,
"Buy lottery tickets?"
"There should be only a few acquaintances who bought lottery tickets here. If the jackpot lottery ticket was bought by a local, the boss should remember."
"That's true."
Zhao Hu nodded and walked into the betting station with Ma Han.
