53: Chapter 53: We are just a heartless radio
Everyone was curious about what Jiang Zhe would do next...
How he would use a few experiments to prove the existence of the akashic records.
Xiao Yu asked the questions step by step:
"Brother, what exactly is Savant Syndrome?"
"Savant... Syndrome."
Jiang Zhe put down the blue book and spoke slowly:
"It refers to certain people who, after experiencing brain trauma, extreme stimulation, or a severe illness response..."
"Suddenly wake up with abilities they didn't previously possess, even gaining super-genius capabilities in certain fields!"
Both Xiao Yu and the viewers had heard of this.
Indeed, some people gained unbelievable abilities after accidents.
"For example: there was a migrant worker who planted rice and had never received any musical training."
"He suddenly went into shock or fainted in the fields, injuring his head. After waking up..."
"He could actually play Flight of the Bumblebee, or even: Rush B!"
"He even became a highly respected [Shaman/Spirit Medium] after returning to his village."
"Or, a regular factory worker who spent his days screwing bolts..."
"After experiencing severe shock, he could fluently use the Akapo language that no one knows anymore."
Xiao Yu rested her chin on her hand, but she was gasping in surprise.
"Brother, I know about all of those!"
"But the experts say it's not that they suddenly gained new abilities."
"Instead, the [valves] of their previously suppressed brain functions were opened."
"Like a mother in a crisis who can instantly lift a van or a car to save her child, only to die of exhaustion afterward."
"Essentially, it's humans releasing hidden potential!"
Her words instantly resonated with countless viewers.
The bullet comments quickly agreed.
"Exactly, that's how science explains it."
"It's just releasing human potential, nothing mysterious about it."
"Also, the injured person must have been exposed to similar information before, and it was recorded in their subconscious."
"Like how I remembered a song when I was a kid but forgot it as I grew up, then one day I woke up and could hum it; it's just like that!"
Up to this point, Jiang Zhe's revelation could still be refuted by the viewers.
But...
Next!
In Kyoto, inside the residential compound.
Professor Chen Runzhi nodded in agreement.
"Xiao Yu is right; in the current medical and scientific communities, the mainstream theory is [releasing potential]."
"That knowledge doesn't just appear out of thin air."
Professor Qian also expressed his approval:
"This makes sense logically."
"The brain is essentially a sophisticated organ. Usually, some areas are closed off, but they get activated by an accident, releasing potential."
"Like those Shamans and Spirit Mediums, most are farmers working in the fields who suddenly faint and gain the ability to let ghosts possess them to deliver last words."
On the other side, in the Chinese-style villa.
The Second Senior Brother laughed on the spot upon hearing this.
Looking at the First Senior Brother and the Third Junior Sister, he clutched his stomach and said:
"Do you see?"
"I told you he was just acting mysterious."
"Even his sister is refuting and questioning him. Savant Syndrome can't prove the external heresy of the [akashic records] at all."
"Those cases are just the brain being activated!"
"What a simple and easy-to-understand explanation, right?"
The First Senior Brother frowned.
He felt that the Second Junior Brother was right.
The Third Junior Sister's beautiful eyes flickered; Xiaoyu's brother's level shouldn't be limited to just this, right?
On the screen.
Listening to Xiao Yu's refutation.
Jiang Zhe's face wore a calm smile.
He didn't address the problem directly but changed his approach:
"Xiao Yu, why do you think we humans can understand this vast universe?"
"Hmm?"
Xiao Yu's eyes rolled as she gave a somewhat vague response.
"Through continuous learning and observing everything?"
"Wrong!"
Jiang Zhe gently wagged his index finger, his gaze gradually becoming deep.
"My question is more fundamental."
"Our human biological heads are composed of elements like nitrogen, oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen."
"Our physical entity [body], which follows basic physical laws—how can it understand the [universe], which is also composed of matter?"
Jiang Zhe paused for a moment, noticing the confusion on his sister's face.
"A bit difficult?"
"Yes."
This question was getting a bit too much for the high school sister to keep up with.
The live stream was also filled with countless [???] question marks.
Jiang Zhe nodded and tried another way of putting it.
"To give a simple example:"
"My computer's CPU is made of metal and silicon."
"My computer can process code in 0s and 1s because the computer is essentially a [material system]."
"But!"
As Jiang Zhe's tone shifted.
"How can our human brain, this [material system], invent [Riemannian Geometry], [Calculus], and [Quantum Mechanics]? How do we understand these abstract concepts and mathematical logical relationships that are not composed of matter?"
"Just like the [human brain] bound by the rules of the universe—how does it prove and contemplate the [universal laws] themselves?"
At this point, the bullet comments in the live stream suddenly decreased.
Some viewers scratched their heads with suspicious looks.
"What Can I Say?"
"Am I in a university public lecture right now?"
"Xiaoyu's brother, I'm just an elementary school student!"
Xiao Yu racked her brains but couldn't come up with a simpler answer.
She said with a look of utter despair:
"Brother, keep it simple! The way you speak should be simpler!"
Jiang Zhe frowned. Hadn't Xiao Yu become smarter?
How could she not even understand this?
In fact, it wasn't just her; even the university students, professors, and scholars in front of their screens found it difficult to grasp for a moment.
"Alright!"
He looked left and right, then picked up a pencil and a piece of white paper from the dining table.
"Let's use an even simpler example!"
"I use a pencil to write [Xiao Yu is a pig] on the white paper."
"Huh?"
Xiao Yu instantly narrowed her eyes and leaned back, giving him the 'old man looking at his phone' expression.
"The [spider] in [spider]!"
Hearing Jiang Zhe say this, Xiao Yu finally turned her head and rolled her eyes at him.
"Now, you can see—"
"The white paper is matter, and the pencil is also matter."
"When two matters are combined, they can complete the task of [writing]."
"That's because the pencil and the white paper are interacting on the same physical level—this is called a [same-layer operation]. You can also think of it as a [same layer] operation in Photoshop."
"Once the information is not on the same [layer], you can't perform a [same-layer operation], right?"
"Right!" Xiao Yu nodded like a chick pecking at grain.
Then Jiang Zhe put down the pencil and pointed to his head.
"Now, our human brain."
"Just like this material pencil, it's constructed of molecules and atoms; it is a pure [material tool]."
"Yet concepts like the Theory of Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Calculus, Riemannian Geometry, love, perversion, and justice..."
"They have no mass, no shape, and don't even occupy [material space]."
"They are composed of pure physical information and do not exist in our [material world]; they exist in [another world, or on another level] that we cannot see."
He paused deliberately for a moment.
Fearing Xiao Yu wouldn't understand, he continued to simplify.
"It's like if I were to use a pencil made of matter to modify a [document file] inside a tablet computer."
"In the end, not a single word in the [document] would change; the pencil would only smash the screen!"
"That's because the [document] inside the tablet and the [pencil] in my hand are simply not in the same world."
"Their rules are different, and they cannot interact at all!"
"Right?"
"Right!"
Jiang Zhe nodded and continued:
"Okay, Xiao Yu, here comes the question."
"By what means does our material brain not only understand things in that untouchable, invisible [non-material world]?"
"How can it invent, create, and bestow brand-new formulas and theories in that [non-material world] that have never even appeared in the world before?"
"It's like a [head] eternally trapped within the internal rules of the universe—how does it [discover] and [formulate] the [underlying physical rules of the universe] itself?"
"Can a pebble explain what [geology] is?"
"No!"
"Can a primitive man who evolved a brain for survival understand what [Quantum Mechanics] is?"
"Don't say that the primitive man's knowledge or experience is insufficient and that he needs time to gain more. Those are unnecessary additions."
"Even if you let scientists from 2025 learn the scientific knowledge of the year 100,025, as long as the culture is passed down, our scientific community can crack it."
"But a primitive man? He can't!"
"He can't!"
Xiao Yu's eyes began to focus.
Indeed, a primitive man cannot understand modern knowledge.
But a modern human can understand human knowledge from ten thousand or even a hundred thousand years in the future and reverse-derive that knowledge back to the year 2025.
In this, there is a [chasm] between the primitive man and the modern human that simple knowledge cannot explain.
Jiang Zhe then pointed to his brain with a solemn expression:
"This is the paradox that [potential release] can never solve in a lifetime!"
"Even if a primitive man released his potential, he wouldn't suddenly understand subjects like [Quantum Mechanics] or [Genetics] a hundred thousand years ago."
"Returning to the original question—"
"The brain composed of matter belongs to the material realm; this world can be A."
"Abstract concepts do not exist in the material realm but only in another world; this world can be B."
"How does the human brain in World A affect the abstract concepts in World B?"
"It's like asking how a pencil in World A can rewrite the contents of a virtual document in a computer in World B just by poking it?"
"It's impossible, right?"
As he finished, he looked at Xiao Yu, whose eyes were wide open.
Xiao Yu nodded with a hollow gaze, a chill running through her body.
"Therefore!"
"Xiao Yu, the only solution is!"
At this point in the narrative, his expression was exceptionally serious.
"The human head, the function of the head, is not for [inventing], not for [calculating], and not for [creating] at all!"
"Instead, the human head is actually a [Wi-Fi] router, or even a radio."
"Those abstract concepts: painting, music, singing, dancing, rapping, and all knowledge!"
"They are like information in the [network world], filling the akashic records and found everywhere."
"And the human brain is only responsible for [receiving] this abstract information."
"At the same time, it translates the [information] into [neural signals] that humans can understand, then into [language], and finally allows everyone to [understand]."
"Finally!"
"People with Savant Syndrome are just a group of [terminals] whose signal for receiving information has suddenly improved."
"Just as Tesla said: [My brain is just a receiver]."
"And we [normal people] are just those with fixed channels and extremely weak signals, yet we think we understand the entire universe; we are pitifully confident people who firmly believe the [sounds] received by the radio come from the [radio] itself."
"And some people receive too much information... and end up in mental hospitals."
"Now, do you understand?"
As he finished, he winked his right eye, looking at the already dazed Xiao Yu.
At this moment, the live stream was dead silent, without a single bullet comment.
The three professors were dumbstruck in the living room.
Xiao Yu's cherry-pink mouth hung open; she was instantly petrified!
At this moment, she felt as if her soul no longer belonged to her.
Savant Syndrome...
It's not the release of the brain's potential; it has always been [information reception]!!!
