57: Chapter 57: The Ability to Calculate Past Lives and Explain Your Déjà Vu

Upon hearing this, the livestream chat instantly boiled over.

"WTF? Past life?"

"For real? Even past lives can be calculated?"

"I know Xiaoyu's brother isn't a fortune teller, but uses scientific methods to calculate the future and the past; I didn't expect even past lives... Incredible!"

"If anyone else said this, I'd report them, but this is Xiaoyu's brother; I have to believe it, brothers!"

Most of Jiang Zhe's fans...

...believed him implicitly, even though Jiang Zhe dropped out in his second year of high school in this world.

But the man's soul had wandered beyond the heavens for 28 years, a fact certified in the livestream chat by Wang Chongyang, a heavyweight in Kyoto's Sinology circle...

...and historically, there were indeed people who achieved such a feat, like Zhang Sanfeng!

They had no choice but to believe in the existence of these mysterious Sinology and metaphysics!

"Hiss~~"

Xiao Yu was completely stunned.

She asked somewhat stutteringly:

"Brother, do we... do we really have past lives?"

Jiang Zhe nodded gently.

"Naturally... we do."

"But most fortune-telling methods in our world are vague and full of loopholes."

"In the future, I will use my own methods to calculate your past life and tell it to you."

He thought to himself.

Of course it can be calculated!

Not only can it be calculated, but it can be done with precision.

For example: scientific modeling of the I Ching and Zi Wei Dou Shu can both be calculated.

For instance, the most basic method abroad is [hypnotic regression], which Jiang Zhe also knows, but its scope is too narrow.

When it comes to metaphysics and Sinology, foreign things are indeed inferior to China's.

Jiang Zhe felt a sense of conviction.

When he has time, he'll need to return to his past life once more to bring back the cracked version of the complete Zi Wei Dou Shu book.

However...

Voices of doubt followed one after another.

Kyoto, inside a Chinese-style villa.

Second Senior Brother stood up abruptly, as if he had caught onto something.

Facing his teacher, First Senior Brother, and Third Junior Sister, he said with a stern face:

"See? This guy's flaw has finally been exposed!"

"Predicting a hotel fire once counts as having some skill, but now even calculating past lives... he dares to say that?"

He was a Sinology expert, even if he was young.

He had seen plenty of Sinology and metaphysics scammers.

"Teacher, and Senior Brother, Junior Sister, you must stay clear-headed."

"Don't be brainwashed by this guy. In the circles of metaphysics and Sinology, anyone who dares to say [I can calculate your past life]..."

"...out of ten, twelve of them are scammers trying to empty the wallets of those foolish rich people!"

"This is an ironclad rule!"

First Senior Brother, Third Junior Sister, and Wang Chongyang were somewhat speechless.

The three of them couldn't be bothered to respond to the somewhat short-tempered Second Senior Brother.

Meanwhile, in the living room.

Xiao Yu had a sudden idea and asked:

"Bro, before every evening tutoring session, can we have a prediction!"

"Or calculate a past life, okay?"

"The people in my classmate group are very interested!"

As she finished speaking, inside the principal's office.

Principal Fu stood up abruptly, his flesh trembling as he said excitedly:

"Good, good, good! As expected of a young person, her mind is so active; calculate, calculate, you must calculate it!"

Jiang Zhe was a bit surprised, "Will calculating these things improve your math grades?"

"This..." Xiao Yu said awkwardly, "It won't!"

"This..."

"Then wouldn't it..."

Before he could finish, a series of light blue boxes appeared in front of him.

[Adaptive Task Triggered: Broaden your sister's cognitive boundaries!]

[Task Explanation: Anything that can broaden Xiao Yu's cognitive boundaries, or even break through them, stimulating her interest in all things, can be considered teaching!]

[Task Reward: Based on the shock to Xiao Yu's cognition, rewards include large sums of money, free attribute points, and practical skills!]

[Friendly Reminder: Tracing past lives is one of the paths to understanding the essence of space-time, information, and life!]

Jiang Zhe's eyes flickered, and he immediately took back his previous words, changing them to:

"Then wouldn't I have to listen to Xiao Yu?"

"Haha, love you, bro!"

Xiao Yu excitedly stood up and hugged Jiang Zhe, then sat back down.

"Bro, speaking of which, what is the zero-point field, and why can it explain past lives?"

This was also what countless viewers were concerned about.

A self-created scientific theory surely wouldn't be this magical, right?

Jiang Zhe lifted his watch; it was currently 10:30 PM, time to end class.

Before he could begin explaining, physics students and graduate students in the livestream were already coming out to explain.

"zero-point field? It seems there really isn't one, but in our physics world, there is zero-point energy. It should be a similar concept, right?"

"Seems so. Briefly, it's the energy fluctuations that still exist at absolute zero in the vacuum of the universe."

"Is the expert going to use physics to explain metaphysics? I'm looking forward to it!"

"Good heavens, I thought Xiaoyu's brother was bragging, but I didn't expect your physics world to actually have these things?"

"..."

Xiao Yu compiled these bullet comments for her classmate group.

Xiao Yu openly and directly handed her phone to Jiang Zhe without pretending, "Bro, look, is it this?"

Jiang Zhe glanced at it and said undeniably:

"What they're saying is the foundation, but the [zero-point field] your brother is talking about is more than just that!"

"With me, it can not only explain past lives but even reveal the ultimate destination of humans after death!"

His words caused the livestream chat to fall silent for a moment before exploding again.

"Alright, Xiao Yu."

"We'll talk about these questions next time."

Jiang Zhe cut off the topic, "But I can still talk about the zero-point field."

"Do you know about gravity fields?"

"Mm-hm!"

"I know, it's like a glass marble falling into water—the ripples produced on all sides in the water; this phenomenon placed in the vacuum of space..."

"These [ripples] are the [gravity field]."

This knowledge was very basic; even middle schoolers knew it.

Jiang Zhe nodded with satisfaction.

"Yes."

"The zero-point field is similar, yet different."

"It's like..."

"The scientific version of the [akashic records]."

"The range it covers radiates across the locations of all intelligent civilizations in the entire universe."

"The akashic records your brother mentioned earlier could only be proven through circumstantial evidence, but wouldn't be accepted by most people."

"But the zero-point field is based on the foundation of Quantum Mechanics!"

"It must exist!"

Speaking to this point, he rested his chin on his hand, suddenly thinking of something.

"Based on zero-point field theory, some people's [déjà vu]..."

"In your brother's zero-point field theory..."

"...can also be explained."

Déjà vu?

Xiao Yu and the viewers were no strangers to it.

Like going to a certain place and suddenly feeling very familiar, yet unable to remember where you'd seen it—that kind of feeling.

"The déjà vu of some normal people, [like having been to this place, knowing this person, having walked this road before; the feeling that I can't go to a party this time because if I do, I'll die on the way], and so on, are not things that medical [emergence] can explain."

"Rather..."

"[In a moment of trance, a person accidentally connects to the akashic records/zero-point field and pulls back some information from within, leading them to mistakenly believe they've been there, when in fact they haven't!]"

"And that [information] actually belongs to [someone else]—"

"[Information fragments of someone else having been to Mount Huang or Mount Song]."

"[Information fragments of someone else having walked this road]."

"[Information fragments of someone else dying on the way to a party—the location of the car accident]."

"In this way, it causes those who experience déjà vu from time to time to have the false perception—"

"[It looks so familiar, as if it has happened somewhere before]."

He looked at his sister, who was lost in thought.

"So... mysterious!"

Xiao Yu finally voiced an evaluation after a long time.

"Of course it's mysterious. Only by knowing this world will you truly recognize this unknown world."

"As for how to locate the information of someone who has already passed away from the ocean of the zero-point field..."

"Next time, your brother will personally demonstrate it for you."

"Alright, goodnight!"

"Wait, bro!"

Just as Jiang Zhe turned to leave, he was called back by Xiao Yu.

"Is déjà vu really just someone else's memory being mistakenly transmitted into another person's mind?"

"Or is... déjà vu actually a targeted prediction of a fragment of the future or the past?"

The more she thought about it, the more terrifying it felt.

Jiang Zhe said with a look of approval:

"Your theories are both correct."

"There is also a third conclusion: déjà vu is a memory fragment from a past life—"

"For example, déjà vu of scenery, or streets and buildings in some people's déjà vu that look old-fashioned or even ancient."

"I'll talk about this tomorrow or some other time. But don't dwell on it; hurry up and wash up for bed, it's past eleven."

"Okay!"

Xiao Yu responded and went to the bathroom.
