Chapter 95: Near-Death Experiment, Too Easy
As his words fell, the audience was immediately filled with excitement.
"It's here, it's here!"
"It's finally coming, the relationship between the soul and quantum mechanics."
"Could he be decoding the secrets of the afterlife today?"
"Near-death experiments, he's going to talk about near-death experiments; you can't talk about the afterlife without mentioning near-death experiments!"
"Right, right, right! He must have a unique perspective on near-death experiments; hurry up and spam the comments so Jiang Zhe can see!"
"..."
The audience excitedly spammed the comments section.
Many people were typing "near-death experiments," trying to get the backstage director to pass the message on to Jiang Zhe.
...
In every household, and even in hospitals.
"Honey, stop sleeping, wake up, the thing you're interested in is on."
"Sis, isn't Dad sick? Watch this video, maybe you'll find some clues."
"Grandpa, the official host is going to talk about the afterlife, don't be afraid of the pain; just watch this first, maybe it won't hurt after you see it."
Every viewer hurriedly got up; some poured a cup of coffee, some brewed a cup of hot tea, and others even called over their critically ill relatives to watch together.
Then, they focused their full attention on the lecture.
...
In the lecture hall of the University of Science in Kyoto.
All the experts sat up straight and hurriedly opened the laptops in front of them.
They simultaneously clicked on the recording or video functions to document this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Professor Hua Yunfeng looked at the audience, "Everyone must listen carefully. Since he dares to talk about it, it means he has made some discoveries."
Professor Feng added, "Quantum mechanics and the soul—if we judge it using the previous [Information Pyramid], the information after a person dies should indeed remain in a certain area for many, many years."
"No matter what you hear later, I hope everyone will not make any noise. If you have any questions, call after the program ends, and we will collectively select a question that everyone cares about to ask."
As the two elders finished speaking, all the experts nodded, indicating they would not object.
...
Monitoring Department.
Staff member Xiao Li looked at the soaring curve on the monitoring screen.
The number of online TV viewers, originally over 4 million, instantly surged to 5 million.
At the same time, the number of people in the online live broadcast room had broken through 3 million.
He shouted excitedly, "Uncle Wang, it broke, it broke!"
"Clatter!"
Old Wang suddenly stood up excitedly from the sofa, but accidentally fell to the ground.
He gasped, looking at the bloodstain on his arm scratched by the floor.
"You brat, you jinx! You said it broke, and now my arm is broken; it's all your fault, you unlucky thing!"
Xiao Li turned his head in astonishment, looking at the blood dripping from Old Wang's left arm; he had hit the metal leg of a chair on the floor.
He said with an embarrassed face, "Uncle Wang, I was talking about the ratings... not you breaking yourself."
"Shut up, watch the program!"
"Got it!"
...
Inside the big screen.
Jiang Zhe faced the camera, and the director's voice came through his earpiece.
"The audience wants you to talk about near-death experiments; many people are very curious about this."
He also knew that at this moment, the ratings had reached their peak for the day.
When the ratings stabilize at a peak, one must maintain that peak.
In order to retain the new audience, he responded, "Ok!"
Then, facing the camera, Jiang Zhe began to speak.
"Next, the theme of 'Quantum Consciousness' is divided into three segments."
"First segment: Near-death experiments. To satisfy everyone's request, I originally didn't want to talk about it because it's really too simple. But since so many people are curious, I am willing to talk about it."
As soon as these words were spoken, the audience and the experts couldn't help but twitch their lips.
"Too, too, too simple?"
"Can we not use such discriminatory language?"
"You're going to get beaten up like this, big brother!"
These questions, if taken separately, would be enough for other Television Station programs to make four or five episodes.
Yet when it comes to you, you don't even bother to talk about it?
Professor Hua Yunfeng and Old Feng looked at each other and smiled awkwardly, then continued to listen and watch.
"Second segment: Proving the individual storage source of the soul."
"Third segment: The afterlife."
Old Zhao, Old Wang, Wang Lin, and others were confused.
This was an impromptu performance; why was Jiang Zhe able to provide these directions so smoothly?
Whether he had prepared in advance or was improvising on the spot, it left everyone scratching their heads.
"Let's start with a few simple near-death experiments to whet everyone's appetite."
"The first one is a 34-year-old lady named Qian Ya, from the United States."
"In 2014, due to a difficult labor, she chose to have a cesarean section and was sent to a hospital in the United States for emergency surgery."
"Because the baby's foot touched a nerve in her pelvis, the standard anesthetic dosage for a normal person was ineffective on her."
"The doctor could only slowly continue to increase the anesthetic dosage!"
"The next moment, suddenly, Qian Ya's vision went black, and she lost consciousness and intuition, passing out."
"Normal people who pass out have no concept of time; it's like sleeping—you close your eyes and open them, and the next day has arrived, right?"
He asked a question, and the audience nodded repeatedly.
Fainting is naturally like falling asleep; after waking up, it is completely impossible to remember the memory of the fainting process.
They can only hear the accounts of people nearby to know what happened during the fainting process!
But Jiang Zhe shook his head and said with a serious face:
"However, at that moment, her feeling was not the same!"
"She was surprised to feel herself being sucked up by something, and with a 'whoosh,' she was pulled up."
"Then she traveled through a pitch-black tunnel; directly in front of the tunnel, there was an opening, and outside the opening was white light."
"Then suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she was surrounded by white light—not sunlight, it wasn't blinding, just felt very comfortable, without any pain."
"She also heard the prayers of a priest. She herself is a Christian and believes in Jesus. The other party suddenly said a sentence: 'This place does not belong to you, go back.'"
"This voice was not conveyed through words, but directly through thought, similar to a normal person's auditory hallucination; it appeared out of thin air in her head."
"After the priest finished speaking, she was pushed down, pushed back onto the surgical tent."
"Then she saw herself, her husband, the doctor, and the doctor's assistant performing the surgery on her."
"In the emergency room, she witnessed the doctor's assistant counting cotton swabs for her (to check for heavy bleeding), and then she saw her uterus being removed and the entire process of the cesarean section."
"Finally, she suddenly returned to her own body."
"A reminder: throughout all of the above, she never opened her eyes, but was relying on a third-person perspective the entire time."
"Yes, she saw herself lying on the hospital bed; she also saw the process of the doctor performing the surgery on the body in front of her."
"After she regained full consciousness, she told her husband about what she had seen."
"Her husband was stunned as he listened, because he had been accompanying her the whole time, and his wife had been in a coma the entire time, without consciousness, let alone opening her eyes to see!"
"Moreover, the doctor's assistant was counting cotton swabs behind the crowd; if she needed to see that, she would have to have gotten off the operating table to see it. How did she know?"
Without pausing, he immediately gave a second case.
"The second one is named Vicky, female, who was sent to the hospital in 1973 due to a car accident. During the resuscitation, she also saw a black tunnel, a white opening, and then walked out."
"After walking out, she felt herself floating up, and then was surprised to see all the doctors surrounding her, trying to resuscitate her and discussing her condition."
"Soon after she was successfully resuscitated and woke up, she asked the doctor, and the doctor was very surprised—the description was completely correct!"
"The most important thing is that she was born blind. That is to say, that was the first thing she had ever seen in her life."
As his words fell, he smiled slightly, "These cases are very common, and they are the same as the signs of most near-death patients you have heard of, right?"
In the live broadcast room, comments flew by rapidly.
"Right, near-death cases are all a black tunnel, then a white opening; then most of them see themselves undergoing surgery; why is that?"
"Yeah, why are the signs almost the same as the near-death cases I've heard before?"
"Some are floating up, some are going through a black tunnel and a white opening; others witness themselves being resuscitated; that's all I know."
"Which big shot can tell me what's going on?"
"I don't know!"
"I know, but I'm not saying; I want to see if Jiang Zhe is professional or not!"
"..."
These cases are very common in this world.
Many viewers searched the internet immediately and quickly found the prototypes that Jiang Zhe mentioned.
What Jiang Zhe described was also completely consistent with the cases!
The experts in the University of Science lecture hall looked thoughtful and were puzzled.
But soon, a biologist smiled, and just as he wanted to stand up to explain to everyone, he was interrupted by Jiang Zhe on the big screen.
"Everyone must be very curious!"
"Black tunnel, white opening, bright world, floating up."
He looked at the camera and blinked gently, "There's nothing metaphysical about this; this is just the primitive instinctive reaction of a patient when they are in a coma."
The viewers in the live broadcast room were full of confusion.
"Primitive reaction?" xN
They really couldn't understand these four words.
Jiang Zhe smiled gently, "Yes, when a person is threatened by life..."
"Let's give an example—"
"For example, everyone, when you encounter a life crisis."
"What is your first instinctive life reaction?"
"Run away?"
"Naturally, it's to run away. What if there is no way to escape, and you run to a corner?"
"Beg for mercy?"
"What if begging for mercy is useless too?"
"Or some might say, resist?"
"And what if resistance is also useless?"
"Even if someone is stubborn and says, 'Leave the body to adrenaline.'"
"Ok, the adrenaline has kicked in, but you have still failed. You have tried every effort, and you still cannot escape the crisis."
"What will your subconscious reaction be next?"
As his words fell, the audience and the experts thought about it.
When a person is at a dead end, and everything they have experienced has been in vain.
In the end, there is only one result: waiting for death.
In the process of waiting for death...
How will the body react?
Gradually, the live broadcast room fell silent, and the experts also fell silent.
