Phantasmal Genesis

Chapter 19: An Experiment

Hypnotising himself!

Perhaps using illusions to imitate the effect of bodily hormone might have an effect on the endocrine system of the body.

Letting the body feel as if it has received the signal and it will secrete out whichever substance Meng Ke wanted.

His consciousness knew that the illusion wasnt true but his body didnt!

Thats how it gets interesting.

Meng Ke was going to find someone else to try it on. First, he went out to finish todays training. Then instead of going home like usual, he turned a corner and ordered a cup of milk tea from an open-air milk tea shop right outside the sport centre. He looked around sipping on his milk tea watching as people walked came and went.

He wasnt a retard or a mad scientist, naturally he wouldnt try whatever idea he had onto his own body. Instead, he would find someone else to be his guinea pig.

The Endocrine system was an incredibly important component of the human body as the hormones largely affected human growth, feelings like sadness and happiness and any disbalance in any of the hormones can lead to an array of diseases.

Of course, his attempt wouldnt just take away the life of an ordinary passer-by.

Soon, a young couple came to the milk tea shop. Their intimate appearance made it apparent that the two were in a passionate relationship and were stuck together with a kind of glue that couldnt be undone even with lasers.

If Meng Kes memory served him right, when two people are in a relationship they are both happy and excited, which causes the secretion of phenylethylamine and dopamine to increase sharply, making the body and consciousness believe that they are in love.

This is the same for animals during a certain special period.

However, once the honeymoon phase of the relationship has passed or they get married, the ordinary everyday life could no longer stimulate the effect of an increase in the concentration of phenylethylamine and dopamine. Then the married life starts facing problems and the number of arguments between the two also experience a sharp rise, completely in contrast to the previous behaviour.

Love, it was just that fragile.

Meng Ke eyed the two with great interest. He started to hypnotise the girl among the two. He wanted to see what would happen if the body gradually stopped feeling the stimulation leading to a decrease in its secretion.

Under Meng Kes observation, the two sat on the deck, the girl snuggled herself into the boys arms, a smile adorning her face, looking like a young girl in love, filled with youth and vitality.

Little Binbin4 I want you to feed me, The girl pouted, acting like a baby.

The boy looked at her with a smile in his eyes. The men and women in love were both obedient and foolish. No matter what they did, it felt like they were trying something new, accompanied by the feeling of happiness and excitement, making people feel puzzled.

Sometimes quarrelling could also turn into a show of affection when after the argument, they kiss each other like it was their first time.

If this isnt a side effect of excessive hormonal secretion then what else it was? Love?

Listening to the girls voice filled with coquettishness, the boy secretly looked around the crowd, feeling pretty embarrassed. In the end though, he still picked up the spoon and fed the girl a mouthful of the fruit salad.

The girl squinted her eyes with joy, parted her lips and tried to eat it all in one bite, while her cheeks blushed crimson.

Countless people who saw this scene couldnt help but sigh.

This was the sour smell of love!

Ah~! The girl opened her mouth again, and her eyes glancing at the bowl of fruit salad suggesting that she still wanted to eat!

Enough already, so many people are watching

The boy touched his nose awkwardly, he had been stared at by so many people, and the two of them were still openly spreading dog food, which was a bit dangerous for them!

Their behaviour had already attracted the attention of most of the people in the milk tea shop.

They were all just jealous! The boy thought proudly.

All of a sudden, the girl calmed down, slowly blinked her eyes, curiously looked at the proud boy in front of her, and said lightly,

Oh.

Huh? Oh? The boy snapped out of his fantasy and was instantly rendered confused, he was just casually saying that, if it were in the past, right now the girl should be holding his hand, acting both cute and coquettish, and then, the two of them would continue acting lovey-dovey as the girl said that shell only eat if you feed me!

Why is there only a faint oh today?

Are you angry? The boy felt that something was wrong and asked tentatively.

Nope. The girl looked at him before impatiently saying: Hurry up and finish eating, after you are done, lets go to the movie, I feel so bored here!

The boy didnt understand why she suddenly became so cold.

Is itme, did I do something wrong?

He began to reflect on himself, and then, as if he had figured out something, he skilfully picked up the spoon and spooned a spoonful of salad and took it closer to the girls mouth.

Dont be angry, okay? In the future, I will feed you whatever you want. He said apologetically.

The girl looked at the spoon in front of her, and she couldnt hide the trace of disgust that flashed across her eyes, she actually hated eating fruit salad the most but because it was the boys favourite food, she didnt tell him and pretended that she actually liked to eat it.

However, today she wasnt in the mood and didnt want to eat this kind of thing.

I dont want to eat it. After the girl finished speaking, she picked up her mobile phone, got up and walked to the door. She couldnt help but wonder, how could she eat the fruit salad that she wouldve rather starved than eat for someone else?

Was she crazy?

Where are you going? The boy hurriedly followed behind, reaching out and grabbing the girls hand.

Let go! The girl struggled to shake off his hand and looked at the boy with disgust, she felt that she must have been blind before? How could she fancy a man who had no money, no looks and no sense of humour?

You keep saying you love me but you dont even know what I hate to eat the most! Stop following me! I hate you! After yelling, the girl ran out.

The boy stood there in a daze, he didnt know if he should catch up or not.

How can a person change so much in just a second?

Should he say that a womans heart was just that fickle?

They changed faces faster than they changed hearts.

No, they changed just as fast!

The boy couldnt help but feel depressed.

Meng Ke watched as the girl ran past him in a state of panic, her face still holding that puzzled and annoyed expression.

Does it really have an effect of suppressing phenylethylamine and dopamine secretion?

Meng Ke quickly recorded the result.

It needs to be noted that the girls reaction indirectly proved the theory that humans are all emotional beings.New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on novel(b)in(.)com

If love occurs due to the excessive secretion of a hormone, as a single dog, Meng Ke despises all those who fell in love.

What was the difference between this behaviour and drug abuse?!

The so-called falling out of love was simply a withdrawal reaction!

Dammit!

Meng Ke felt that if he stopped pursuing eternal life sometime in the future, he should set up a love rehabilitation centre to save all the men and women who fell in love. As long as his theory was promoted, would fame and money not come rushing to him like running water?

His name will go down in history and be famous for eternity!
