Chapter 503 Continuously Losing Points
Other people's jars were full of brains, but Li Zhengye's jar actually contained four lumps of brain tissue as big as eggs!
It would be fine if they were separated. The key is that his four brain tissues are still tied together, each extending several octopus-like tentacles. Each tentacle is formed by a large number of brain cells and is remotely connected to other brain tissues.
"I have recently been studying the differences in intelligence caused by the way the brain is connected, and I came up with a new method!" Li Zhengye said while touching the jar.
"I cultured four pieces of brain tissue separately. After they grew to a critical size, I concentrated them and induced them to connect to each other and fuse into a whole!"
"The inspiration comes from head trauma and human brain development. Some special head trauma, such as stray bullet injuries, will take away a small piece of brain tissue and form a cavity in the brain. If the person who was shot is lucky enough to survive, then the brain tissue will There is a chance that regrowth will fill the gap, and two pieces of brain tissue that were originally far apart will come into contact with each other."
"The development process of the human brain has a similar pattern. From childhood to adulthood, the synaptic connections in the brain will become more and more dense. However, after adulthood, the synapses in the brain will gradually weaken and build some A whole new circuit of connection…”
"So, I tried to fuse multiple brains into one, and I took a gamble that maybe a miracle would happen! In fact, there are already very interesting phenomena happening."
With that said, Li Zhengye picked up the culture jar and put in the instruments.
Everyone gathered in front of the instrument screen to watch, and again let out a low scream.
The four brain tissues are in a very active state, and signals are constantly being transmitted to other brain tissues, as if four conscious creatures are communicating with each other!
"I can't tell what function it has at the moment, but it seems like they can communicate with each other. I don't know the specific communication content. It may be meaningful whispers, or it may be some meaningless messy signals." Li Zhengye said, "Probably In two or three weeks, I can grow them into a unit and more may appear!”
The students applauded one after another, and Xiang Xiaotong also nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"Song He?" she called her name.
Song He was a little embarrassed and took off the red cloth on the culture tank he brought with him.
The students all looked into the jar with subtle expressions on their faces.
Inside the jar was just a lump of unremarkable brain tissue, with two small black dots on the edge, only the size of a mung bean.
Compared with the previous jars of brain tissue with different shapes, Song He’s jar is really nothing eye-catching.
"My goal is to make eyes and try my best to let the brain produce vision. I have made more attempts based on the work of the teacher. At present, the prototype of the optic bubble structure has just appeared, which is the two small black dots that everyone sees... "
Song He introduced for a moment, and the students responded with polite applause.
Obviously, everyone is not interested in Song He's work performance.
It's so uncreative. Others are digging for brand new tricks. His work seems to be just copying the teacher's results, at least he hasn't made any new ideas yet.
Xiang Xiaotong opened his mouth and gave each student a grade:
"Huang Qiqin is the first place this week. The ear brain is very innovative and it is very valuable to be able to make the brain tissue respond to sound. Award 5 points!"
"The second place, Li Zhengye, has his own unique ideas for artificial brains. The method of merging four brain tissues is very bold and difficult. There is no score this week."
"The third place is Hu Xiaotian. The direction of the biological calculator is great, but the current results are too simple. It is not enough to only distinguish between 0 and 1. There is no score this week."
"Song He, the last one, has successfully cultivated brain tissue and grown two prototype optic vesicle structures, but for the time being, no unique results can be seen. If you keep working hard, you will be deducted five points!"
There was a small whiteboard hung on the wall. Xiang Xiaotong stood up and quickly wrote the transcripts of four students:
[Huang Qiqin: 5 points]
[Li Zhengye: 0 points]
[Hu Xiaotian: 0 points]
[Song He: -5 points]
After the scores for the first week were determined, Xiang Xiaotong explained the precautions in detail for half an hour, gave some guidance to the students one by one, and announced the adjournment of the meeting.
Song He left in a hurry, preparing to return to the laboratory to continue working.
I had just walked a few steps in the corridor when I suddenly heard someone shouting from behind me.
"Song He classmates!"
He turned around in surprise and saw three classmates looking at him.
"Let's go to the cafeteria for dinner, do you want to join us?" Li Zhengye, who had a huge head, asked.
"Come on, come on, come on." Huang Qiqin also invited, speaking as fast as a submachine gun.
The obese Hu Xiaotian smiled and patted his big belly, and his fat suddenly trembled.
"Thank you, thank you. I ate before the meeting. I wish you a happy meal!" Song He refused with a smile and left in a hurry.
The three classmates looked at each other, didn't hold back anymore, and headed towards the cafeteria.
The weekly meeting is like an exam. It is understandable that students who did not do well in the exam have no intention of gathering and go back to work hard.
After leaving the Billion Building, there were only a few pedestrians on the road. The three of them chatted quietly, and each other praised each other's creativity in their work. In a few weeks, great results that would be shocking to the world will inevitably be hatched.
As we chatted and talked about Song He, the atmosphere became suspicious.
"Song He should be very capable, why did he end up like this in the first week?" Li Zhengye was puzzled.
"I thought he would take first place. After all, he is better than anyone else in terms of scientific research results. Let's wait and see next week. Maybe he will make a comeback next week?" Huang Qiqin said quickly.
Hu Xiaotian nodded, "It seems that he just copied the teacher's results. Maybe he thought that if he followed the teacher's path, the teacher would get high marks? But the teacher obviously didn't accept this. I feel like he was going to overturn this subject."
"It won't happen if the car rolls over." Li Zhengye shook his head, "A person who can make short-sleep tablets should be able to do such a small job without strict restrictions. It is estimated that he made a mistake this week."
Hu Xiaotian did not retort, but just smiled. His eyes were so fat that there was only a slit left, making it difficult to see his expression.
…
In the second week, Song He is even busier!
The number of culture tanks in the laboratory increased slightly and was finally fixed at 150 tanks.
There are brain tissues of different shapes floating in each jar. The culture environment is constantly adjusted, and the growth direction of the brain tissue also changes every day, twisting and turning, like unsolvable mysteries.
The data wall is updated more frequently. Whenever Song He finishes replacing the data paper with sweat on his face, he often stands in front of the wall for an hour, looking thoughtful.
He seemed to sense something...but the feeling was not clear yet.
One week passed quickly, and soon, it was the second weekly meeting!
Like last week, each person brought a jar and opened the cover to show the results.
At this regular meeting, Huang Qiqin overturned. The ear brain she cultivated last week died suddenly, so she had to bring in a newly cultivated ear brain. Her sensitivity to music increased a little, but there was no big improvement.
Li Zhengye rose to prominence, and the four brain tissues he cultivated were closely connected. It was suspected that brain regions had differentiated. It was observed that the brain tissues in different regions would work in chronological order, and would fall asleep when they were not working.
Hu Xiaotian's brain tissue calculator was somewhat effective and successfully realized calculations of 1+1 and 1+0. The indicator light of the former flashed twice as many times as the latter!
Song He's work has also improved, and the visual bubble structure is clearer, but it is still lackluster.
In the end, Song He still came in last, and the first place was changed to Li Zhengye. The score of the whole class changed slightly:
[Huang Qiqin: 5 points]
[Li Zhengye: 5 points]
[Hu Xiaotian: 0 points]
[Song He: -10 points]
