Volume 15: The Scourge of Reality

……………

There is a question that is very difficult to answer, almost impossible to answer, and the question is basically unsolvable, belonging to a mystery that has not been solved since the dawn of mankind, and it can even be said that this question will continue forever.

Seeing this, some people may ask, what kind of question can't be answered? Are the questions really that hard to answer?

Yes, it is indeed very difficult to answer, and the question is......

What does it feel like to die?

It is estimated that anyone who hears such a question will definitely despise the questioner at the first time, although logically speaking, the answer can be obtained from the dead, but this is also the most meaningless nonsense, after all, this person is dead and how can he tell you how to tell you how death feels? Can dead people speak? Is it possible to speak? Take a step back and say that those who can talk are still dead? Even if a dying person is revived, it is only a fake death, and most of the feelings of death they express come from their subjective hysteria.

Because of this, the problem has become unsolvable, an eternal mystery that the living can never know.

However, there are no absolutes.

At least for the current Chen Xiaoyao, he has the qualifications, and he is fully qualified to pat his chest and proudly answer this eternal mystery.

The reason is too simple, the reason is that he is experiencing the feeling of death.

Yes......

He's dead.

Let's not talk about why he died, let's first describe Chen Xiaoyao's personal feelings about death.

What does it feel like to die?

If in Chen Xiaoyao's personal words, death is an uncomfortable feeling, no matter what caused his death, no matter where the fatal injury is, we only talk about the world after death, and in fact it is indeed as Chen Xiaoyao described it as uncomfortable, people's real feelings in the last seconds of death are indeed very painful and uncomfortable, this pain is different from physical pain, after all, once a person reaches that time, his tactile perception ability will be infinitely close to zero, It's like if you take a knife and stab someone who is about to die, even if you cut it, the other party will never react, so how do you describe the real feeling? Well, if you have to describe it in words, it can be described as a deep sense of dissonance in consciousness.

As I said, this is a feeling that is difficult to describe in words, so we can only use the closest one. For example, for example, in a certain square, there is a group of neatly arranged people standing on the left and right, the group on the left is wearing uniform clothes, uniform shoes, and their height and body shape are also very close, and the group of people on the right are dressed differently and the difference in height and body is obvious, and then the two groups of people do radio gymnastics together, at this time, if others watch, it is estimated that most people will focus on the group of people on the left who are uniformly dressed, after all, the group on the right is very obstructive to vision and the whole also gives people an uncomfortable feeling, if you still don't understand, then you are giving a simpler example。

Namely, what is a person?

What do humans look like? What is the body type? What is the shape?

The answer is self-evident, and there is no need to answer this question at all, after all, everyone knows what a creature should look like, and if so, if one day you see a man on the street whose left ear is significantly larger than his right ear, in addition to curiosity and surprise, there is a good chance that there will be some discomfort in your heart.

In fact, the above is always a sense of incongruity, and through the above two examples, we can get a definition, that is, very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable, such as in this extremely uncomfortable state for a long time, after a long time, people will inevitably collapse.

Yes, Chen Xiaoyao was in this state in the last seconds of his death, or when he died, he discovered something strange in his consciousness and found himself in a strange world that was both huge and boundless and extremely uncoordinated!

What kind of world is this......

The sky is an endless gray, and the earth under his feet is also an endless gray, of course, if only the two scenes of heaven and earth are not overly uneasy, in fact, not only that, after the initial trance, when Chen Xiaoyao found himself in the future, in addition to the first sight of the earth and sky, he also saw a pool of silent lake not far away, but the really surprising lake water is also gray!

In addition to being surprised, his vision shifted further, and he looked around him and the world further.

As far as the eye can see, everything is dust.

The sky, the earth, the lake, the trees, the hills, and everything else is shrouded in a rich gray.

It was only then that the young man was horrified to discover that the vast world was all gray and dark! In addition, this is a dead world, a silent world without the slightest sound, so quiet that he can't even hear the sound of air moving, and if there is nothing wrong with his ears, then he can only define the world or space he is currently in as having no sound.

By the way, I almost forgot to mention that there is one more thing to explain before continuing the narrative, that is, the few seconds of imminent death may seem fleeting to others, but for the deceased himself there is no concept of time at all, yes, there is no concept of time, it completely and completely confuses time, and the details often vary from person to person, some people will be confused and unaware, some people will feel that a moment shorter than a second has passed in a few seconds, and some people will feel as if they have been in a century for a long time.

Chen Xiaoyao falls into the last category.

Walking, moving forward, running aimlessly.

Ever since he appeared in this gray space inexplicably, the young man has been walking and moving, just aimlessly moving in a world that seems to have no boundaries, during which he also magically found that he had walked for so long and didn't feel fatigue at all! No, not only fatigue, but also hunger, hunger, thirst and even sleepiness and other biological physiological reactions have all disappeared, all of them do not exist, if the above discoveries made Chen Xiaoyao a little surprised at the beginning, then, as he went farther and farther, gradually, he was inexplicably a little lost.

Yes, don't look at him now, he doesn't know where he is, but his consciousness is still awake, plus he is a cultivator who often deals with spirits, pondering for a while, in the end, Chen Xiaoyao understood, and finally found a trembling answer that was closest to the truth in countless confusions.

As expected, at this moment, I am definitely no longer in reality, and this is definitely not the real world!

Thinking of this, in addition to being stunned, a sigh involuntarily appeared in my heart:

Looks like I'm really dead......
