Chapter 125 is the first emotional empathy, and it is even more open...
Isoparaiso's love is naturally flawless and he carries out strictness and caution to the end.
Once back on the ship, the medical team was already waiting at the door, fully equipped. Six chief physicians and twenty nurses turned a simple routine physical examination after the differentiation period into an expert consultation, which was a very large event.
Of course, the trouble doesn't end there.
Two tubes of blood were drawn, one from Bai Ling and the other from Yu Chen.
After marking occurs, a series of medical tests are usually required. It not only includes common auxiliary examinations, such as compatibility tests, blood routine tests, urine routine tests, chest X-rays, genetic disease screening and other items, but also includes differentiated health guidance, health consultation and other educational content.
There is no way to escape it at all.
Bai Lingsheng stood helplessly at the door of the medical room, waiting for the results of the compatibility test. He felt like a poor student who failed a course waiting for his report card at the door of his homeroom teacher. It was so exciting.
He was thinking wildly about how to explain this to the "parents".
Say "I'll try harder next time"? Or just give up and say, "This is my level, it's up to you whether you want it or not"?
As he was muttering, he saw Dean Woodpecker bowing and nodding to open the door, and the long legs of the head of the family stepped out of the door.
Bai Ling's gaze suddenly shifted from the gloomy face to the list in the old woodpecker's hand. He didn't even dare to stand up to take a look at the number above. He just took three steps back with an expressionless face, as if he was facing a flood or a beast.
Yu Chen smiled: "What are you afraid of? The checklist won't eat you."
Bai Ling's expression was cold: "I have never received good news in the hospital."
There are only three outcomes: bad, very bad, and extremely bad. The kind of doctor who is used to seeing life and death would push up his glasses and say with a sympathetic look, "If you want to play or eat anything, go and do it as soon as possible."
Thinking of this, Bai Ling subconsciously glanced at the mermaid.
Yu Chen: "What's wrong?"
Bai Ling said calmly: "Well, I've tried everything I wanted to eat and play."
I have no regrets.
He took a deep breath and said resolutely: "Pronounce the verdict."
The rolled-up paper hit his forehead lightly. Bai Ling shrank his neck subconsciously, and heard a low laugh in his ear:
"Mr. Little White Bird, this is not a military court, and we are not executioners. And things are not as bad as you think."
Bai Ling grabbed the test form but did not open it. He just stared at the mermaid with a tight lip and asked, "How much?"
Yu Chen said simply: "60%."
Passed! Bai Ling almost raised his arms and cheered. 60 points was just enough to be a stable mark, and any more would be a waste. Not only was it not low, it was unexpectedly high. He originally thought it would be lower than 20%.
The old woodpecker began to push up his glasses: "Well, your sex hormone level today is three times higher than usual, and the compatibility test result must be beyond the normal value."
Bai Ling: “…”
I silently subtracted 3 from 60, which made it exactly 20, which was in line with my prediction.
Yu Chen immediately replied: "It's my fault. I'm not feeling well."
Bai Ling silently gave him a sympathetic look: "Don't fight for the pot, just accept the reality as soon as possible."
Yu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked with a half-smile, "Which reality?"
The old woodpecker held his breath and was a little nervous. He looked at the old majesty on the right, then at the omega in front of him, and thought to himself, it's all over. As expected, when couples find that their compatibility does not meet their expectations after testing, they will quarrel on the spot.
According to the normal plot development, what follows is that both parties take a deep breath, say they want to be quiet, start an endless cold war, and finally go their separate ways and each find a highly compatible partner. On the day of registering for marriage, they even light a cigarette desolately in the stairwell of the Civil Affairs Bureau, muttering heartbreaking words like "If only I were 20% taller than him."
There's nothing we can do about it.
Only when the compatibility is high and the mark of two people is firm will they feel at ease to build a nest and reproduce. This is the result of long-term selection of animals in nature in order to "survive". It is a selfish choice of genes that no one can resist.
A cold sound exploded in the old woodpecker's ears. He heard Bai Ling point out:
"Of course, you will have to work hard despite your illness, Mr. Mermaid."
Yu Chen couldn't help but smile, "Oh, I'd be happy to do that."
The old woodpecker was stunned and roared in his heart, "Why don't you two gentlemen play by the rules?" ! Do we really want to violate the natural reproduction rules?
What's the difference between dating a beta like this?
The degree of compatibility fluctuates, sometimes high, sometimes low. It is said to be a lifelong mark, but in fact it is not stable at all. From time to time, you have to find some stimulation to increase the hormone levels of both parties. Both parties must tread on thin ice and maintain the situation carefully. As long as one party has the slightest evil thought and takes action against the others, even just once, the mark will be broken on the spot.
This kind of relationship is so tiring.
It also requires a high level of initiative from both parties.
There is no such thing as a highly compatible, stable and natural relationship. There is no need to maintain the relationship. Just a glance from the two can attract each other.
It's like going to the mall to buy shoes.
There are shoes in the right size for you, but you insist on wearing them too tight and they can easily rub your feet until they bleed.
From a biological point of view, the old woodpecker really couldn't understand this choice.
"It's not a satisfactory answer, but it's a good start." Yu Chen brought the bird over and squeezed his sweaty palm, "It means we have room for improvement."
Bai Ling's eyes wandered around, and finally he glanced at him secretly, breathing lightened: "Really? You really don't care?"
"Of course." The cool overhead light cast a dark shadow on the man's eyebrows, making him look particularly cold and serious. The mermaid told him in a rare serious tone:
“I don’t like 100% compatibility. It’s easy to not cherish the things that are given by nature, and it will make people forget about it once and for all.”
A relationship of 60 points is better.
Both parties are pulling the same rope, standing on both sides and trying to get closer to each other. The results of every small step can be seen. Although this rope is unstable, everything I do will cause emotional waves in you, and these fluctuations will be reflected in the numbers. Be it 60% or 20%. As long as the value goes up, I will get great feedback and happiness.
Such a mechanism is incomprehensible to ordinary people.
But Yu Chen knew that he had tied a piece of meat in front of him. He could eat it, but he would not be full. He would happily chase it in order to maintain a high mental and physical state.
This is good for his illness.
Moreover, his control over the bird's hormones can never reach 100%, and Bai Ling will also feel safe.
They are independent of each other, but also protect each other. No matter where they go, they always look back to see if the other party has fallen behind. This feeling of instability is much more interesting than lying on the credit book of over 90% high fit.
Love that reaches its peak is like food that is too full, with no blank space left and loses its charm.
Bai Ling smiled and said, "Very good. I'm glad that you can reach a consensus with me, Mr. Mermaid."
He also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Yu Chen very formally.
Yu Chen tilted his head slightly and asked humorously: "All-weather strategic partner?"
Bai Ling knew that he could understand her point, and couldn't help but curl his eyebrows: "Happy cooperation!"
Love has never been the most stable thing in the world.
Responsibility is.
·
The differentiated hygiene guidance was replaced by a doctor. The gentle and kind female doctor said seriously, "After mating, it is best for the omega to urinate within 10 minutes to prevent bacterial infection." Although the explanation was strictly based on the textbook, Bai Ling blushed and wanted to skip class.
Why didn’t the previous Odban class mention that omegas still have to be forced to learn this kind of content after differentiation?
Looking back, Yu Chen had pulled down the small table without knowing when, and spread out a hardcover notebook on the table. He used the platinum embossed signature pen that he had used to write on diplomatic documents to write "omega urination..."
Bai Ling was even more devastated.
He is never this serious even during work or meetings.
The doctor's voice echoed in the background: "…Pheromones are closely related to endorphins, serotonin, and oxytocin, which are the main factors in attachment. Generally speaking, when two people are highly compatible, it actually means that when their bodies are close to each other, their brains are more likely to secrete this series of neurotransmitters, thus producing lasting sensory pleasure and satisfaction.
“Anthropologist Helen Fisher calls it companionate love, or enduring love, because it lasts for decades without fading.
"Mutants that form pairs will jointly guard territories, build nests together, feed and groom each other, or show anxiety when separated. Ultimately, this is all the result of 'companionship love'."
After explaining this, she smiled at Bai Ling and said, "But I looked at your test report. You have a dopamine-driven personality, right?"
Dopamine is a "stimulus factor" that pursues short-term satisfaction.
On the positive side, people with strong dopamine secretion are more proactive and have bursts of inspiration in creativity and art. But on the negative side, a high level of dopamine can easily cause coldness after mating, and can also lead to nerve short circuits and severe schizophrenia.
For example, Van Gogh, Picasso and Michelangelo all had similar tendencies towards mental disorders.
This is what is meant by "there is only a fine line between genius and madness."
Bai Ling was absent-minded at first, but when he heard this, his hair almost stood on end. Coldness, schizophrenia, he has every one of them.
He still remembered that when he was seriously ill in his previous life, his mind was very confused and he couldn't express his feelings clearly when he sent messages to Yu Chen. Yu Chen was very patient, replying to his messages one by one, and even taught him how to play blind chess, saying that he wanted to fuck his brain—
Bai Ling:?
He turned his head again and happened to meet the mermaid's scrutinizing gaze. He felt a chill on his spine and for a moment thought that the other party knew something.
It must be an illusion...
At the same time, in the conference clinic, Old Woodpecker and other experts carefully reviewed Bai Ling's diagnosis results and found something very strange.
The test of mental waves showed that Bai Ling once suffered from severe mental disorder and was nearly dying, but due to the expansion of some external brain force, the symptoms were delayed and his condition subtly improved over 5 to 6 years, but it was only a little bit better.
However, functional imaging techniques such as PET, SPECT, and FMRI have shown that Bai Ling's neurons are currently stable and normal, with no trace of external treatment.
These two completely different results are really puzzling.
Old Woodpecker even suspected that their instruments were broken, otherwise there was no way to explain why the brain was physically good, but the soul's mental waves were broken.
Other experts casually said: "Unless the soul is not original."
The old woodpecker was stunned for a moment, then he took a sip from the teacup and teased calmly, "Old Yu, have you read too many science fiction novels? Soul replacement? I think this is probably a broken machine. We can only file a report first, find someone to fix it, and then test it again."
When talking about science fiction, Old Yu became excited and sat forward: "Old Zhuo, what if? I'm just saying what if. Commander Bai's spiritual sea was really moved. His brain wave resilience is the strongest I have ever seen in my life. What kind of person can invade his mind?"
The old woodpecker spit out tea leaves without even raising his eyes. "Who is that person? He must have a mental pressure that is stronger than the sky."
"Does our empire have something of this rank?"
The old woodpecker answered without hesitation: "Yes, we have one on our ship, our old Boss."
As soon as the words fell, there was silence all around.
The old woodpecker was sweating coldly. He was really old and confused. Why didn't he think of this? If the old majesty didn't take the medicine and the disease became serious to a certain extent, it was very likely that he couldn't help but reach out to other people's brains...
Especially now that they are tagged again.
Emotional empathy opens the door to greater convenience.
Besides, these two people are of the same mind and may very likely cover up each other's illness. The old woodpecker became more and more worried. He copied the report, pushed the door open and went to look for someone.
The hygiene guidance class had just ended and the two of them were blocked by Zhuo Liangmu when they walked out.
Zhuo Liangmu had already thought of an excuse. He sent The One away under the pretext of giving him a mental nourishing agent, and then carefully observed the surveillance cameras on both sides before bringing the young omega into the office.
He was so nervous that his red hair stood up, and he asked seriously: "Little White Bird, tell me the truth, has His Majesty ever used your brain? Tell the truth, don't cover up for him."
Bai Ling: “…”
He replied: “No.”
Zhuo Liangmu was even more confused when he saw how straightforward he was: "Then why are your mental waves full of potholes and signs of being forcibly developed?"
Bai Ling said succinctly: "I took medicine in the army before, but someone replaced my medicine and it didn't cure me."
It was the old woodpecker’s former granddaughter-in-law who poisoned him.
Zhuo Liangmu really wanted to expose him, silly boy, taking the wrong medicine would not leave that kind of mark on the spiritual sea, don't make excuses for the old majesty. But this was someone else's private matter, and he couldn't speak directly, so he had to ask indirectly:
“After you marked it, how was the emotional empathy, was the connection strong?”
Bai Ling thought for a moment and said, "Not bad? His pheromones are twice as clear as before. For example, right now, even through two walls, I can tell that he is playing with a syringe out of boredom."
Zhuo Liangmu was shocked: "So specific?"
Bai Ling pointed to the screen behind him and said, "It's on the surveillance footage."
Zhuo Liangmu: “…”
As expected of someone brought up by the Boss, he is extremely tight-lipped and nothing can be asked of him.
When it comes to matters concerning mental disorders, Bai Ling would certainly not tell him the truth. This is different from differentiation. His mental waves will reveal too many problems. If he admits that Yu Chen had hinted at him, Zhuo Liangmu will definitely put him on a deep brain wave diagnostic device.
Go over all his memories from head to toe, starting from birth.
That's it!
At that time, a group of experts will stare at his 42-year soul rings in wide eyes, as if they had encountered an unsolved mystery of the world.
He didn't want to make his rebirth known to everyone.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Bai Ling stood up, but Zhuo Liangmu stopped him and reminded him earnestly: "I have been your majesty's personal physician for thirty years. No one knows his poor mental condition better than me. If he intends to invade your brain, please stop him and don't indulge him."
Bai Ling turned his head, his expression extremely calm: "What if I indulge you?"
Zhuo Liangmu said with difficulty: "...You will become his spiritual container and let him vent."
·
In Bai Ling's words just now, some of them were meant to fool Zhuo Liangmu, but some of them were also true. Speaking of empathy, he can now indeed feel the alpha's presence and knows the other party's approximate location and emotions, but it is not as clear as what he sees from the surveillance.
At most, they can turn around at the same time in a crowd, look at each other accurately, and find each other's position.
I heard that if a couple is highly compatible, they can highly empathize with each other's emotions. When you are happy, I am happy too, and it is double the happiness during mating, and both of them feel extremely happy together.
When Bai Ling heard this in his previous life, he sneered, "Whoever becomes my alpha will be in trouble."
Others asked him why.
Commander Bai stepped on the captive with his leather boots and wiped his gun indifferently: "I didn't enjoy it, so he won't enjoy it either."
Others: “…As expected of you.”
Commander Bai objectifies every alpha equally and doesn't consider male creatures as human beings at all. But in this life, he was standing outside the transparent ward wall, and the dark waves in his eyes reflected the injection needle that was slowly pushed into the mermaid's forearm. It was sharp enough to prick people and thick enough to sting them. Obviously, the other party was so used to it that he didn't even blink, but Bai Ling felt a pain in his wrist, followed by a faint sourness in his heart.
It was as if the needle passed through space, penetrated the 6cm thick bulletproof glass, turned into a solid object and pierced his body.
Mark empathy...
It is a feeling of being closely intertwined with the fate of others, a very slight but significant sense of existence.
Empathy is two-way. Yu Chen subconsciously looked up and found that the bird was outside with his arms folded, staring at him coldly, almost staring sparks out of the bulletproof glass wall.
He smiled helplessly and said to the nurse, "Let him in."
As expected, the bird walked in majestically and even closed the door with great momentum, just like a peregrine falcon that builds its nest wherever it flies.
However, when it comes to following the rules, he becomes reasonable again and obediently washes and disinfects his hands in the isolation area, and only walks into the inner room after finishing carefully.
"Hello," Bai Ling nodded to the nurse, and then said, "He also has a wound on his side, scratched by a fish bone. Please help him disinfect it."
As soon as I finished speaking, I could clearly feel the mermaid's pheromones becoming stronger.
Bai Ling remained calm and pretended not to hear anything. She unbuttoned her clothes and took off her shirt, moving slowly and methodically. Her gloomy eyes stared at him meaningfully, and he looked back at her calmly.
"Do you have to trouble Commander Bai to supervise such a small matter?" Yu Chen asked jokingly.
"Of course, this belongs to my territory." Bai Ling answered slowly.
Oh my! The nurse saw the fresh teeth marks on the back of the white-haired young man’s neck, and the corners of her mouth began to twitch upwards uncontrollably. Luckily it's my shift today.
I carefully removed the old Band-Aid with tweezers, placed it on the tray, and prepared to replace it with a new one. But as soon as the nurse's hand moved closer, I felt as if I was trapped in two stalemate sights.
She retreated silently.
Glancing sideways, the elegant old nobleman was signaling with his eyes, glancing down at his injured waist, and then glancing at the Band-Aid.
The young man raised his eyebrows in confusion, then suddenly realized something, and with a cold face, he gently took the Band-Aid from the nurse: "Sorry, let me do it."
Yu Chen indeed adjusted his posture and almost moved close to his hand.
Bai Ling cursed in his heart as he put the Band-Aids on people, but this guy insisted on asking: "Commander Bai likes to put Band-Aids on people?"
This is to find out how many people he has posted it on.
"Humph!" Bai Ling pointed out without mercy, "Why are you pretending to be stupid? Do you like to put on Band-Aids? I just feel sorry for you."
A mind that is full of twists and turns is most afraid of a straight ball. Yu Chen suddenly turned his eyes away unnaturally and hooked his lower lip towards the wall. He worked hard all his life to be wise, and when the empire collapsed, he could finally allow himself to be foolish for once. Even if you play dumb, someone has to be willing to take the bait.
The nurse took the tray and was about to dispose of the garbage, but Yu Chen stopped her: "Don't throw away the replaced Band-Aid, I still have some use for it."
"What's the use?" Bai Ling asked quickly.
He soon found out its use.
The old man asked for a small plastic bag for syringes and put the Band-Aid in it. It was a small Band-Aid that had turned dark from the blood sticking to the cotton pad, but he smoothed it out carefully.
The nurse was watching, the dried blood, the wounds, the warm hands, just seeing it immediately conjured up a scene. There is clearly nothing, yet it seems as if everything is being performed.
The Band-Aid was inserted into the hardcover notebook where the work was written as a bookmark. Make his heartache into a physical object and preserve it between the pages of a book.
Bai Ling didn't know why his breathing became disordered and his eyes became hot. This abnormal and strange behavior actually has another reason. Isoparaiso had heard too much praise and too much insult in his life, and the polarization was so severe that he himself was numb. But no one had ever stood on his equal footing and said thank you for your hard work.
He seemed to be as strong as a rock and had no emotional fluctuations, but he was still excited about such empathy.
Being loved is a good medicine. It's the same for him, or for him.
