What is the experience of becoming a vampire

Chapter 20 Hearing and Smell

Xiang Kun looked at the video in a daze, and he found that there were other angles of video in the highlighted reply, but it was relatively not so clear. Obviously, not only one person took the video at that time.

He even saw the video taken by the surveillance camera, not sure if it was uploaded by the grocery store owner.

Xiang Kun had a big head, and after returning the phone to the reporter, he left home hurriedly on the pretext of having something to do.

After walking on the street for a while, Xiang Kun felt that it was not a big deal. When he stopped the murderer, he did not show any ability to surpass ordinary people. As long as he insisted not to accept interviews and show his face, keep Low-key, when this matter passes, no one will pay attention to him anymore.

After all, netizens are only concerned about this incident.

Xiang Kun went to the most prosperous area in the city, then found a drink shop on the side of the road, bought a drink, half-squinted, sitting at the door, seeming to be dozing off.

But in fact, he is paying attention to hearing.

Behind you, the voice of the clerk in the beverage store, the voice of customers ordering, the footsteps and voices of pedestrians outside, the sound of cars and horns on the road further away, the sound of broadcasts and music from nearby shopping malls, etc. The various sounds were distinguished one by one in Xiang Kun's mind.

Then he locked on one of the sounds and began to concentrate on "capture".

For example, if you hear a certain footstep, you will always follow the footstep, feel its movement and orientation, calculate the distance to yourself, the material of the sole, etc., until the sound is far away and you can't hear it again.

In this way, Xiang Kun relies on hearing to "construct" the surrounding situation in his consciousness.

After the last time he drank blood, Xiang Kun found that his hearing had been greatly improved, and it was better than ordinary people.

After the third blood drink, Xiang Kun adjusted his training plan, reduced the proportion of strength training, increased physical agility and balance training, especially targeted training for the senses of vision, hearing, and smell. Made a lot of plans.

Xiang Kun sat at the entrance of the beverage store from more than ten in the morning to more than five in the afternoon. He had not opened his eyes and had not moved his hips. The people in the beverage store probably thought he was asleep.

At 5:15 in the afternoon, Xiang Kun opened his eyes, stretched his waist, as if he really slept, then got up and left the beverage shop, and threw the cup of milk tea directly into the trash can—actually he Did not drink a bite.

Xiang Kun did not go home, but continued to train for hearing.

He walked on the street, looking for various sound sources at random to track down.

Sometimes when you see someone talking or making a call from a distance, you will slowly approach and shorten the distance until you can vaguely hear the conversation of the other party, and then increase the distance to continuously increase the maximum distance you can hear.

Sometimes it is to randomly lock one of a bunch of sounds, and then find the source of the sound, such as one of a bunch of footsteps, such as a dog barking out of sight, such as a mobile phone ringing from nowhere.

Sometimes it is centered on a fixed and continuous sound source, such as the broadcast of a certain shopping mall, the music of a certain clothing store, or even the sound of some machines, slowly moving away.

For hearing training, Xiang Kun's method is to listen more, distinguish more, find and exercise the limits of hearing.

For the next few days, I spent almost ten hours walking around the street every day, listening to various types of sounds, and conducting auditory training.

Xiang Kun found that the training effect at night was much better than during the day.

Not only is the physical function stronger at night, the mental state is better, and the hearing is more sensitive, but the noise at night is also much less and relatively quieter. For him at this stage, it is easier to train.

Therefore, Xiang Kun still goes to the gym to exercise during the day, and wanders around the street at night, searching for various sounds randomly.

As a result, I heard a lot of sounds that I didn’t expect before, such as the calls of various insects and crawling in the grass and in the ditch, such as the gnawing sound of mice, and the various materials in various buildings due to thermal expansion. Shrinking or other vibrational sounds, such as different sounds when the wind blows through streets and roads of different structures, and some very subtle sounds, he can't even find a specific source.

In addition to hearing, Xiang Kun also conducts olfactory training. Like hearing training, he also distinguishes and tracks various smells.

Although the sense of smell and hearing are both trained on the street, they are separated during training, because at this stage, if you listen and smell at the same time, the two senses cannot fully concentrate and interfere with each other. .

So when he first started training his sense of smell, he would find a place to sit down, close his eyes and put on earplugs to block the two main senses, and only use his nose to perceive the surroundings and distinguish the various sources of smell in the surrounding smell.

Compared with sound, smell is actually more difficult to distinguish and difficult to train.In many cases, a strong odor will suppress other odors, and after a period of time in an environment, the nose adapts to the surrounding odors, and the sensitivity of smell to odors will also decrease.

So sometimes, he will even deliberately choose places that have a bigger and more complicated taste, such as garbage dumps, stinky drains, stinky ponds, or food courts, snack streets, etc. for training.

On the evening of July 30, Xiang Kun did not go out after returning from the gym because he felt hungry again.

After all, it was almost six days since the last time he drank blood, which is about the same time as the last statistics.

This time, Xiang Kun did not conduct the endurance test again. After feeling hungry, he disposed of the remaining meat rabbit at home and drank about 165ml of rabbit blood.

Then the sleepiness struck, Xiang Kun picked up the phone and set an alarm clock, which rang 23 hours later.

He wanted to see if he could be awakened by the noise during his deep sleep.

The reason why I set it to 23 hours later, I still worry that if I get up too early and lack of sleep, I don't know if it will have any excessive impact on the body.

Set the alarm duration to 1 minute and repeat 3 times.

...

When Xiang Kun opened his eyes again, he was stunned for a moment while lying on the bed, vaguely feeling that the world seemed to be a little different, but after lying down for a few minutes and thinking for a while, he didn't think of the difference. .

Sitting up from the bed, picking up the phone and looking at it, I was not awakened by the alarm. It seemed that during the sleepy period after drinking blood, I couldn't wake myself up by the sound of the alarm.

I just don’t know, if you make physical contact, will you wake up?How much physical contact is needed?

As for the time of sleep this time, 25 hours and 27 minutes, it is still within the previous statistical range, and there is no change.

Xiang Kun suddenly felt that the room was a bit noisy, and he could even hear the chattering and bragging sounds of people drinking at the roadside stall outside, thinking that he had forgotten to close the window before going to bed, but when he walked over, he found that the window was closed properly.

Xiang Kun was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that it was not that the noise outside had become louder, but that his hearing had become stronger.
