Chapter 4: recording


   Chapter 4 Record
   Xiang Kun tried everything that he can eat and drink at home.
   Then make a note on the document:
   Solid food: instant noodles X, potato chips X, oatmeal cookies X, Oreo cookies X;
   Liquid drinks: boiled water √, purified water √, pure milk X, Red Bull X;
   thinking that he had eaten porridge and side dishes in a small shop outside on July 14th, and all vomited up, so he added:
   clear porridge X, fried bean sprouts X, mustard X.
   After checking and recording himself, Xiang Kun checked the time. It was already 1:30 in the morning, so he washed a bit and was ready to go to bed first to ensure a good sleep and rest.
   But after lying on the bed tossing and turning for nearly an hour, Xiang Kun was not sleepy. He felt that he did not feel sleepy because he had slept for more than 20 hours before, so he turned up and turned on the laptop again.
   Before he used his body changes as a keyword to search, most of the search results were directed to "vampire".
   So Xiang Kun planned to use "vampire" as the target to collect information.
   Of course, "Twilight", "Interview with the Vampire", "The Vampire Diaries" and other literary works will not be the target of his collection.
   He also saw the question of "What's the experience of becoming a vampire" on Zhihu. In addition to the answers to the vampire novels that are obviously brain-opening, there are also some serious collections of information to explore the origin of vampires and the answers to scientific explanations.
   Regarding the origin and scientific explanation of vampires, most of the answers are actually the same. I believe that the origin of vampire legends is Eastern and Central Europe in the 18th century.
   Those who become "vampires" are usually people who died of accidents or severe illnesses.
   His relatives either got sick or suffered other accidents and died one after another. And a few days before they die, they will dream of the dead person turning into a vampire to their own blood.
   In the final analysis, if you encounter disasters, infectious diseases, or other unlucky events, they will be recorded on the deceased family members.
The solution at that time was usually to dig out the heart of the corpse after the coffin was opened and burn it, and because the corpse swelled in a short period of time and made a strange sound, the tissue contracted to make the nails look like they were growing after death, which made the "vampire" more The legend goes further.
   Later, with the development of medicine, various phenomena have been explained, and "vampires" have become more literary, adding more images and characteristics, and even have super powers and immortality.
   Sometimes patients with rabies, pica, porphyria and other diseases are also used as the scientific explanation of modern "vampires".
Xiang Kun also deliberately watched the next few answers mentioned, the vampire analysis program "Vampire Forensics" specially produced by National Geographic Channel, which talked about almost those things, and nothing can explain the series of changes in him. content.
   is some of the descriptions and descriptions in some unreliable literary works, which are more consistent with his situation.
   Before dawn, Xiang Kun was still in good spirits, so he decided to go out and buy some things.
   went to the bathroom to wash his face, opened his mouth and checked it, and found that his teeth were almost grown. At least when he smiled, other people should see nothing except that his teeth were white.
   What made him breathe a sigh of relief was that his new teeth were normal, and there were no scary fangs.
   After Xiangkun went out, he bought a few foods, such as deep-fried dough sticks, soy milk, pancakes, bread, etc. He only tried one bite of each, and tried the same, but without exception, they all spit out.
   But eating less, nausea, discomfort when vomiting, will also be reduced a lot.
   Xiangkun took a car to the shopping mall and bought some things, including a variety of food and beverages, an induction cooker and matching pots, cleaning tools, scales, meter sticks and so on.
When    went home, it was already over 10 in the morning, and the sun was so big that Xiang Kun subconsciously turned away from the sun.
   It was hot in July, but Xiang Kun didn't feel the heat at all. When he went out to buy things, squeezed the bus, and carried a few bags, he estimated that it weighed tens of catties, and he didn't sweat much.
   Although the body instinctively seemed to avoid the sun subconsciously, after noticing this, Xiang Kun deliberately stood in the sun and let the sun shine directly.
   But in his sense, there is no obvious discomfort when standing in the sun, even the burning sensation of being exposed to the sun that should normally be felt.
   He looked up at the sky again, his eyes dazzled by the sun, but ordinary people are the same, right?
   Although he didn't understand the specific reason, he could still feel the body's instinctive rejection of sunlight and hot sun.
   According to the information he read last night, the "vampire" is much more sensitive to light. When exposed to the sun, the skin will be quickly burnt and scorched.
   The so-called disease, porphyria, which is the closest to "vampires", can cause photosensitivity dermatitis, itching, and symptoms of chickenpox when exposed to the sun.
   In comparison, although he instinctively wants to protect himself from light, he does not have any obvious symptoms or reactions in the sun. He is even more resistant to heat than before?
   Back home, Xiang Kun took a chair and sat in the bathroom~EbookFREE.me~ and started drinking.
   Take a sip of Coke, and vomit after twenty seconds.
   Take a sip of Sprite, and vomit after more than twenty seconds.
   Take a sip of orange juice, and vomit after twenty seconds.
  ……
However, after drinking the coffee made with Nestle Gold freeze-dried coffee powder, Xiang Kun did not spit it out for a few minutes. This made him vaguely find a way out, because he had drunk Nestlé’s three plus one instant coffee before. It is more than twenty seconds to vomit. What is the difference between the two? What is the difference from the drinks you drank before?
   Xiangkun made boiled eggs again, but there was no response. Then the beef slices were boiled in water, and it was no problem after eating.
   So he started to think, is it because of the sugar content of food?
  Although black coffee, eggs, and beef also contain trace amounts of sugar, they are much lower than other foods and beverages.
   But why is it sugar? From what Xiang Kun has learned before, he knows that most of the energy needed by the human body is provided by sugar.
   While Xiang Kun was recording in front of the laptop, he suddenly felt a twitch in his stomach and rushed to the bathroom again.
Xiang Kun wiped his mouth helplessly, washed his face, returned to the computer, and made a note in the document: Foods or drinks with low sugar content can stay in the stomach for a longer time, but within 20 minutes After half an hour, it still spit out.
Then he began to take off his clothes and only one boxer shorts left on his body. He stood on the electronic scale he bought and weighed, measured his bust, waist, arm circumference and other data with a meter stick, and set up his mobile phone to set up a delayed photo to take a picture of himself. Photo.
   He wants to start recording his physical changes.
