Chapter 37: Practice Leads to True Knowledge



"There is a part of our brain called the limbic system, which mainly includes the amygdala and the hippocampus. It mainly controls our non-verbal behavior."

As Luo Xuening spoke, she drew a picture of the brain on paper and identified our peripheral system in it. This time, the picture became very intuitive.

Fang Jinyu held the painting and looked at it for a long time. In the end, all her confusion and doubts turned into a sigh.

"This is amazing. So, these represent our thoughts and behaviors?"

"Yes."

"The reason why the limbic system can reflect the human mind is that its response to the world around us is conditioned and unconsidered. It responds to the information from the environment in the most authentic way."

"So, the reason why I could see through the lies of the two thieves at a glance is that their subtle movements are not used in language. These movements, non-verbal behaviors, are not under their own control. Therefore, as long as I observe carefully, I can find evidence that they are lying."

"To take a more literal example, when we are nervous, we usually freeze in one movement, which is called the freeze response to danger.

For example, when we face a person or thing we don’t like or are even afraid of, our body’s instinct will make us turn in the opposite direction, which is called the escape response.

Also, when we are under pressure, we can’t help but touch our bodies, perhaps by pressing our foreheads, touching our fingers, etc. These are actually our comfort responses. So, what I just said is an effective judgment and analysis for most people.

After hearing this, Fang Jinyu was silent for a long time. He had never heard of the knowledge that Luo Xuening talked about before, but he believed it. At this moment, he only felt deeply shocked.

"So, Miss Luo, what you mean is that not only the two thieves just now, but anyone else will have a limbic system to control them. In this way, we can completely judge a person's thoughts based on his behavior. This is really magical."

"Exactly."

Luo Xuening was very happy. A peaceful smile was reflected on her face, and her deer-like eyes were staring at Fang Jinyu intently.

What a soulmate! She only said a few basic things, but Fang Jinyu was able to guess what she wanted to express. She is truly amazing.

"Miss Luo, may I ask where did you learn all this knowledge from?"

"In the book."

Luo Xuening had long anticipated that Fang Jinyu would ask this question. In fact, when she slowly revealed her analytical talent in this strange world, she had expected that someone would pay attention to where she got all this knowledge from.

Of course, she couldn't tell others directly that she had learned these things in the present world thousands of years later, but she had already thought of the words to describe what she had learned.

"Miss Luo, from what kind of books did you learn this rare knowledge? I wonder if there are any copies of these books. Can Jinyu borrow them?"

After Fang Jinyu finished speaking, the other two looked at Luo Xue Ning intently. If there really was such a magical book, they would also like to borrow it. However, Luo Xue Ning just smiled calmly and said with some regret.

"Jinyu, I found these books among my aunt's dowry, but later, due to some unexpected circumstances, these books were burned."

"I see. That's a shame."

Fang Jinyu sighed and felt very regretful.

"Don't feel sorry for Jin Yu. Practice brings true knowledge. Books are just a supplement."

In fact, Luo Xuening didn't dislike Fang Jinyu. Moreover, because of Fang Jinyu's identity as a detective, Luo Xuening felt that they were like-minded.

Naturally, she was willing to tell Fang Jinyu about these things that they didn't normally have access to, but what Luo Xuening didn't expect was that Fang Jinyu accepted it very quickly. However, if it were someone else, Luo Xuening would not be willing to donate generously.

After all, what she said was contrary to Nan Shao's level of knowledge.

However, what Luo Xue Ning didn't want others to hear was heard clearly by the two gentlemen outside the door.

At this moment, listening to Luo Xuening's words, "Practice brings out true knowledge", Long Lingxun nodded silently, and the admiration in his eyes became even stronger.

"There is a huge library in my palace, which contains all kinds of books. If you don't mind, Miss Luo, you can tell me which books were burned in your house. Maybe I have them in my palace."

Accompanied by an indifferent voice, two elegant figures walked into the room where Luo Xue Ning and the others were. Luo Xue Ning frowned slightly, raised her eyes, and met Long Lingxun's gaze.

The man who came was dressed in black, and his delicate facial features were somewhat similar to Long Moxun, but he lacked the inhuman and distant feeling of Long Moxun. With just one glance, Luo Xuening determined the man's identity - Longevity King Long Lingxun.

Of course, following Long Lingxuan was the person that Luo Xuening didn't want to see, Lord Prince Jing, Long Moxun.

"My Lord, the book I mentioned is called "The Method of Reading the Heart". Do you have it in your house?"

Luo Xuening looked at Long Lingxun steadily, but in her heart she was enjoying the show.

What's the point of reading the mind method or not? There is no such book at all. She just wanted to embarrass Long Ling on purpose.

Long Lingxun: "Well, he really didn't."

"Prince Shou's library has always only kept forgeries, so there is probably no such unique copy."

Long Moxun stood behind Long Lingxun and secretly laughed at Long Lingxun's arrogance.

Long Lingxun was silent. Well, the slap in the face came too quickly.

"Prince Jing, the books in my library were all given to me by my father. How can you say they are fakes?"

"Even if it was given to you personally by the Emperor, I cannot give you the original copy."

Long Moxun refuted without any hesitation, and Long Lingxun simply couldn't say anything to refute.

He put his hands behind his back and asked slowly, "Prince Jing said so. Do you have the book that Miss Luo just mentioned?"

"I am so busy with my daily affairs that I don't have the time to read such idle books. Unlike you, you don't even have to attend court."

""

Long Lingxun almost vomited blood. Ever since the last incident at the Ministry of Revenue, the Emperor had simply given him, the prince, a vacation. In fact, he wanted to take this opportunity to set rules for the Empress's party, and he, the prince, was the first to bear the brunt of it.

This matter was originally a secret of the imperial court, but now, Long Moxun has spoken it out so openly.

Long Moxun, I don’t want to save face.

Long Lingxun's face turned ashen, and the other people in the room could only look around blankly, trying not to laugh.

It seems that these two brothers came here to quarrel.

"Miss Luo, are you the daughter of the Prime Minister's family?"

"Luo Xuening, the fourth child of the Luo family, has met the two princes."

Long Lingxun had been eavesdropping on the conversation for so long, so he naturally knew Luo Xuening's identity. She could only greet him obediently.

Long Lingxun glanced at her meaningfully, while Erlong Moxun snorted coldly and arrogantly.

"Miss Luo, I am very interested in what you just said. If I have time someday, I will go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and discuss it with you."

"this"

Luo Xuening ruffled her hair uncomfortably. How did she get into such a big trouble?

"Miss Luo Si is already engaged. As a prince, is it appropriate for you to meet her?"

Long Moxun spoke softly behind Long Lingxun. Long Lingxun was unhappy. Why did he feel that Long Moxun was particularly talkative today?

"Whether it's suitable or not doesn't seem to be Prince Jing's business."

"As the saying goes, an elder brother is like a father. I am just educating you on behalf of the emperor."

Long Lingxuan: "You're talking nonsense. You're just looking for trouble on purpose."

Luo Xuening felt amused. This Long Moxun finally spoke something sensible.

"But?"

Long Moxun probably felt that Luo Xuening's fake smile was particularly annoying, so he changed the subject and looked at Luo Xuening with a cold voice.

"Since this girl has read that book, I will ask her to copy a few more books. Tomorrow, I will reorganize the books you have read and send them to my house."

"Long Moxun?"

Luo Xuening screamed in her heart, but she saw that the proud Prince Jing had already turned away and left.

Fang Jinyu and Nangong Yu looked at Luo Xuening with sympathy and sighed at the same time.

"Miss Luo, we both know the behavior of Prince Jing. Take care."
