End of ten days

"What?"

"I am now very afraid that my memory will disappear." Aries said, "I have never felt this way before. In the past, I just gave myself subtle hints day after day, but now I am a little scared... There are many things I cannot forget, and there are many people I must remember..."

That familiar feeling came again...Aries began to say words that I needed to understand carefully to understand.

"I don't quite understand...Brother Yang." I said, "You are now a "prefecture-level zodiac sign"... Logically speaking, there is no possibility of "amnesia"? You can only continue to "promote"... that is... "

"Destroyed in ashes" I can't say it, but Aries can definitely guess it.

"What if I want to become something other than the "zodiac sign"?" Aries asked, "I'm really a little scared... Yan Zhichun, I'm walking a road that no one has ever walked in this world. I don't know. There’s something waiting for me on this road.”

"I, I understand..."

Lu Xun said that there is no road in this world, but when more people walk on it, it becomes a road.

But if there is only one person walking forward in the dark direction...is it still a road?

"So how can we make the memory engraved in our heart?" Aries asked again.

"Brother Yang...ask me this question...is it a bit..."

"No, I think you can help me answer it." Aries said, "You once inadvertently solved a huge problem for me."

"I...?" I didn't understand. The only time Aries needed my help was to find a "face", but I didn't find that "face" either.

"Yes..." Aries stretched out his white-haired hand and pointed at his temple, "That is the "storage of knowledge."

I was stunned for a moment: "You should have more knowledge than me now...but you got all that from studying on your own..."

"But you told me a simpler memory method, which is to organize and summarize the names of various effects and theorems, so that I only need to remember a few words to read the entire knowledge chain."

I think Aries takes me too seriously. Even if he really doesn't know the names of those effects and theorems, it doesn't stop him from being able to think of this knowledge on his own.

"So do you have other simple ways to store memories?" Aries said, "Similar to effects, rules, and theorems, important memories are retained through small things."

"This..." I thought about it carefully, and it seemed that I had really learned the memory method consciously.

But my starting point is really different from that of Aries... Because my memory was not very good when I was a child, my academic performance was also skewed, so I took the initiative to learn how to improve my memory.

But does Aries really need these memory methods?

"Brother Yang... I wonder if you can use it..." I whispered, "If you want to remember something important, you can use the "anchor memory method", which is when you experience important things. , associate it with other things, so that when you see those things, it will trigger the memory at that time.

"Other things...?" Aries looked at me, "For example?"

"for example……"

I looked west for a long time and found that there seemed to be nothing in the room that could be used as an example.

I suddenly thought of something, so I reached out and knocked on the table in front of Aries.

"Dong dong dong"!

Aries was obviously startled after hearing this voice.

"For example, this sound." I said, "You can knock on the table when it feels important, so that the next time you knock on the table, you will remember what you were doing the last time you knocked on the table."

"So this is called the "anchor memory method"..."

Aries nodded after hearing this. He didn't look like he had learned new knowledge, but more like he knew the name of each piece of knowledge he was using.

"Brother Yang...have you been using this method for a long time?" I asked.

Aries didn't answer, just sighed, and said: "Yan Zhichun, what if there is nothing at hand that can be used as an "anchor"? What if I can't even knock on the table?"

"This..." I thought for a moment and said, "Under what circumstances do you want to establish an "anchor point"?"

"Like in a dream." Aries said.

In a dream...?

"Actually, imaginary related objects can also be used."

"Imaginary?"

I turned my head and found that there was actually a cartoon lamb pattern on Aries' table.

"Is this...?" I picked up the cartoon lamb and found that it was actually sewn from fabric.

"A "customer" left it here. He said he picked it up on the road and thought it suited me very well, so he brought it to thank me for helping her survive." Aries said, "I don't really like such a boring way of gratitude. She might as well Stay alive here."

I shook my head helplessly, moved the cartoon lamb forward, and inserted it into the breast pocket of Aries' suit.

"What to do?" Aries looked at his suit and frowned.

I have to say... the stern face of Aries paired with this cartoon lamb makes the picture indescribably weird.

"Brother Sheep, you don't get along very well with this cartoon little sheep," I said.

"Does this need to be said...?" Aries asked doubtfully.

"So this can also be regarded as an "anchor"." I said, "I don't know if you can understand this example. You usually don't wear clothes with cartoon patterns like this, but one day in your dream you suddenly found that you actually Wearing a shirt or suit with cartoon patterns, you will immediately know that something is wrong..."

"Oh...?" Aries narrowed his eyes slightly after hearing this, and then nodded, "What other examples are there?"

"Uh... and..." I really didn't know how to give an example, "Brother Yang... is there anything you need to remember? I think it's better to analyze the specific situation."

"I..." Aries paused and said, "I need to remember a symbol of flawlessness. She appeared with "Xia" and disappeared with "Xia". She was pure white, quiet, and perfect. Her appearance Will lead us to the end of it all.”

I looked embarrassed after hearing this. Aries' statement was a bit too abstract.

What is it that he wants to remember?

It's actually a flawless "symbol"...?

“First I’m going to use this symbol to carry me forward, then I’m going to use this symbol to drive me into despair, then this symbol is going to make me feel like something is wrong, and then it’s going to lead me to the end.”

After Aries finished speaking, he looked at me: "How can I accurately and separately remember different states in different time periods?"

God...does Aries really not think highly of me?

This is obviously not a question I can answer. Aries seems to have revealed part of his plan to me, but every link is very abstract!

But I don’t know why... I always feel that the situation he described is something I have read in a certain book.
