The science behind the hypnosis of 818 illusions
After the latest chapter was uploaded, we were unsurprisingly arranged by the operation officer: "You didn't write the last two chapters, right?" In the previous chapter, it was also said that the female fox Qingli's illusion 'Eye Spirit' had to stare at the other party's eyes to be cast, but in the next chapter, it was said that Qingli planned to attack Hu San from behind, isn't this a contradiction? ”
"Although Qingli admits that Fang Cai's illusion is 'eyes have a spirit rhino', she was still in a hostile relationship with Yang Congxun and Hu San at that time...... With Qingli's temperament, it is not suspicious to openly reveal his old background to the enemy? ”
"Ah...... Dare to love is a lie! Really, reading your book is really a drain on our brain cells. Add parentheses to the article, note 'The above sentence is a lie', and the font should be bold! ”
I'm sorry, if it's really on this note, it's not a poisonous point that everyone complains about?
After all the gossip, let's explore the possible scientific rationale behind illusion or hypnosis.
First of all, the caster of illusions does like to make extra moves to attract the attention of the caster, which can significantly increase the success rate of illusions.
In other words, the illusion itself doesn't necessarily have to look directly into the opponent's eyes to be cast, but 'direct contact with the opponent's gaze' or this act of 'keeping an eye on the opponent' can make it easier for the caster to be controlled.
For example, some old movies depict hypnosis with the caster pulling out a pocket watch with a chain attached to it and dangling it back and forth in front of the caster's eyes.
The principle is actually to use a pocket watch to simulate the pendulum that swings under a wall clock.
In the days when phonographs were not commonplace, the chiming clock, which was more than a person tall, relied on the swing of a pendulum to keep time, and was topped with a mechanical puppet was the only thing in the house that could make a sound...... A person who stares at the pendulum for a long time, isn't that boring to the point of mold?
So this pocket watch, which dangles back and forth in front of people's eyes, is intended to create the illusion of 'I'm staring at the pendulum and I'm bored right now'...... Since you're bored, just close your eyes and take a nap.
As a result, the hypnotized person does not feel relaxed in front of the caster, and is then controlled by his hypnosis.
Don't think that this kind of psychological suggestion has little effect, not long ago, the psychology department of a university did such a social experiment.
In the experiment, the organizers found six subjects in the name of gathering board game enthusiasts for an offline game and brought them to the 'lab', a café that had pre-booked and removed all unrelated guests.
Immediately afterwards, the organizers informed each subject that they would be secretly matched with a 'prey' and that only if the prey was successfully 'hunted' during the game would they actually win the game.
In this way, under the pretext of ensuring the fairness of the competition, the organizers took away all the digital devices of the contestants and left the six contestants in separate boxes to watch a video explaining the rules of the game on the wall-mounted TV.
This video has been processed with special technology.
In a total of fifteen minutes of video, there will be a stutter of about four or five seconds long every minute or so.
In order not to arouse the suspicion of the subjects, after watching the video of the rules, the organizers held a simulated confrontation game and gave the winner a certain reward.
In fact, the real part of the experiment is to observe the emotional feedback of each subject when watching the video through the secret camera embedded in the box.
Three of the subjects had left a large number of psychologically suggestive patterns in their boxes; The other three were in the control group, and their boxes were not manipulated by the organizers.
The results showed that subjects who inadvertently received psychological cues were significantly more agitated during the video viewing, and could not be calm enough to calculate the gains and losses in subsequent games.
As a result, all three subjects who received psychological cues lost points in the final game.
You may wonder what exactly is this psychologically suggestive pattern, and how can it have so much magic?
In fact, the composition of this pattern is quite simple: a fan-shaped arc with an opening downwards and a solid dot...... Yes, it's actually the pattern when the WIFI signal is only one bar.
The organizers made this simple pattern into decorative stickers and pasted them in all sorts of inconspicuous places: on the side of a coffee cup, on the corner of a table mat, on the wall......
Although there was no correlation between the pattern on the handle of the coffee cup and the strength of the Wi-Fi signal in the box, the three subjects who received the cues were significantly more anxious than the control group.
When the video freezes for the second time, the subject who receives the hint walks to the wall-mounted TV to check the WIFI signal displayed on the TV, and will repeat the check signal many times after the video freezes.
In the control group, the same behavior began to occur after 6-7 stutters, and only one member repeatedly checked the WIFI signal.
Shocked not?
Not all of people's daily behaviors are controlled by self-awareness, and a considerable part of them are unconsciously responded to after receiving external stimuli...... The so-called illusion and hypnosis are nothing more than 'reasonable' use of this rule.
Now is the time!
Take your eyes off your smartphone's screen, gaze at any bright area for five seconds, and close your eyes instantly!
Is it that the moment you close your eyes, you feel like a lot of black-hearted light spots floating in the air appear in front of you, and even some 'light spots' will squirm back and forth?
This phenomenon of visual persistence is called 'floaters', and it is actually a temporary projection of dust and mites floating in the air on the human retina.
In fact, humans have always been able to see this kind of 'dust mites' all over the air, but when the human brain processes the visual information fed back by the eyes, it deletes the 'dust mites' everywhere in the air as invalid information...... It's always in front of your eyes, but you turn a blind eye to it.
This 'dust mite' is similar to the sticker that the experiment organizers put on the coffee cup: although the contestants did see the sticker with their own eyes, they had no impression of it at all.
However, if there is such a type of 'person' who can manipulate a part of the 'dust mites' to arrange them into a certain 'pattern' or 'text' in front of the subject's eyes, can it be used to exert strong psychological cues on the other party in this way?
After all, the mass of this 'dust mite' is quite small, and rubbing it twice on the hair produces enough static electricity to adsorb it for a long time.
As for how to use static electricity to manipulate the 'dust mites' into special patterns and words...... The know-how remains to be further researched and studied by future generations.
After all, "Fox Friends and Fairy Friends" is a strange and mysterious thing, the author said that it would be good if he could explain it to this extent with science, Hu San can even put fairy fire, Qingli She is playing with static electricity?
Science fiction, science fiction, rigorous science is the foundation, reasonable fantasy is the height!
We who were finally able to make the operation officer eat back deflated, naturally looked at the other party's distracted appearance, and our hearts were excited.
However, the good times didn't last long, and we were soon 'slapped in the face' by others at the speed of light: "Isn't it? Even if Qingli could use 'dust mites' to paint, Yang Cong clearly saw a beautiful woman bathing in the illusion...... Paint beauties with dust? It's a shame that you came up with it! Besides, didn't that beauty still say a word to Yang Congxun in the illusion? I don't believe that this dust can make a sound! You have to give an explanation, or the reader won't agree! ”
What's this...... Actually, it can be explained.
This friend, do you have any friends from Yunnan? Have you ever tasted some rare wild mushrooms at his instigation?
As fanatical lovers of wild mushrooms, Yunnan compatriots simply took out the posture of 'risking death to taste puffer fish' to eat mushrooms.
At the turn of spring and summer every year, the Yunnan compatriots who are poisoned by eating wild mushrooms by mistake are simply one after another; It was even reported on the news that a family had just been sent to the hospital by relatives and friends at noon because of wild mushroom poisoning, and when they were discharged home in the evening, the family actually thought that the reason for the poisoning was that the mushrooms at noon were not cooked, as long as the mushrooms left over at noon were cooked and then eaten, there would be no problem.
So the family was sent to the hospital by relatives and friends in the middle of the night for infusion and gastric lavage......
So much so that there is a joke on the Internet: "In Yunnan, if you don't see all kinds of colorful villains because of eating mushrooms, you are embarrassed to greet people." ”
The intriguing thing is finally out, what are those visions that I saw after eating the poisoning? Why do some people see colorful figures, while others see murals on the walls flowing 'white clouds' outward?
Why do people who are poisoned by the same fungus see different visions? Even the same family, after eating the same plate of fungus poisoning, saw very different visions?
Could it be that this strange illusion was not caused by germs at all?
Seeing that we said, 'The illusion is not caused by germs', the operation officer suddenly glared: "No, what are you talking about?" What about the number of words in the water here? ”
"Do you think I'm going to get to the point where I don't need money? That's what I mean. ”
As I spoke, I picked up a picture of an advertisement stuffed to me by a passerby, and first buckled two big holes in it, and then flattened it and showed it to the operation officer across the table: "How do you feel?" ”
"You've deducted all the pictures into this virtue, what do you want to feel? The big hole of the two black rumbling holes is very round? ”
"You think there's something wrong with this picture, right? Coincidentally, our brains feel the same way. ”
Just as the brain sometimes makes its own decisions to delete all the 'invalid information' it receives, when the brain thinks that the effective information transmitted back by the sensory organs in front of it is seriously missing and cannot be understood logically, the brain will also activate the 'automatic error correction' function to sift through some logical content from the memory already stored in the mind to fill in the gap of valid information.
Those colorful little people are actually the 'videos' formed by your brain that randomly sift through some images from your memory, and then zoom and stretch them to fill in the gaps in the visual information!
This is a 'movie' that has been edited by the individual's own brain!
This is the reason why the same family sees different visions after eating the same plate of fungus poisoning: the 'director' (brain) who is responsible for editing is different, and the 'material library' (personal memory) used is also different, so it will naturally edit a completely different 'movie'!
Well? What evidence do I have to prove this, you ask?
I think most of your life has had the experience of eating tastelessly because of a cold and nasal congestion, right?
I don't know if you've ever thought about it? The five senses of hearing, hearing, touch, smell, and smell correspond to different receptors (eyes, ears, skin, tongue buds, and nose), so it stands to reason that information should not interfere with each other.
It is easy to understand that you can't smell the food when you have a cold and nasal congestion; But the cold has nothing to do with the tongue, why does the taste become 'lighter' when you eat it?
In fact, behind this is the brain's quiet ghost.
When the brain finds that the nasal mucosal cells are unable to feedback olfactory information due to cold and nasal congestion, it will immediately 'weaken' the activity intensity of the taste cells of the tongue buds, so that the person's taste feedback will also decline with the sense of smell.
There is no way to do this, without the early warning of smell, humans cannot judge whether the food has been slightly spoiled by vision alone (there is no obvious trace of rot and mildew on the outside of the food, but the inner flesh has been moldy).
In all likelihood, when you stuff food into your mouth, you find that it has gone a little sour...... There is no way to do this, in ancient times, human food sources were not sufficient; As long as there is no serious deterioration, you have to eat it if it is 'sour', otherwise you don't want to enhance your physical strength and fight against the invasion of external germs.
In order to minimize the nausea and vomiting caused by eating sour food, the human brain will reduce the activity of taste cells that are normally working after noticing the failure of olfactory cells, thereby reducing the feedback of taste information.
In this way, after a person has a cold and nasal congestion, the taste of the originally normal meal becomes 'light' in the mouth......
Therefore, when ingested by wild toadstools, the neurotoxins contained in these fungi will significantly suppress the activity of some sensory cells, and at the same time enhance the activity of other sensory cells, which makes the sensory feedback information that is normally normal appear seriously distorted and the elements are missing!
After the preliminary analysis and collation of the central nervous system, the brain judges that the key elements of this information are missing, and the consequence of directly accepting this information is serious logical conflict and confusion.
Therefore, the brain finally uses the information in the memory of the mind to correct and complete the originally confused and missing information...... As everyone knows, this will bring more and greater chaos!
This may be the essence of illusion and hypnosis: the caster uses a method similar to wild toxins to severely distort and lack the information fed back by the human receptors.
Compared with the use of wild mushroom poisoning, the degree of information loss in the recipients who are attacked by illusion is much greater, and even exceeds the limit of the brain's ability to correct errors autonomously.
At this time, the brain can pick and choose: "Don't do it, I can't do this job...... It's too much of a bully, and you want to make a movie without even a script outline? If you are affected, find another brain guide! ”
However, just as my brain was grumbling, a logically complete script outline suddenly fell from the sky: "A beautiful woman bathed in the water, and turned her head and asked, 'Am I good-looking?'!" ”
At this time, the brain director who had obtained the treasure immediately threw the previous complaints out of the clouds, and happily followed the instructions of the script, intercepted the appropriate pictures from his memory, and edited the movie......
As for how did this script that fell from the sky come about...... Do you understand?
From the beginning to the end, the caster of the illusion only interferes with the other person's brain to receive the information, and uses a psychologically suggestive pattern to convey a simple text message from the past: 'The woman bathing in the water is talking to you'.
The rest of the content was actually completed by Yang Congxun's brain guide.
As for what this girl looks like and how she bathes in the water, what she said to Yang Congxun in the end doesn't matter...... Anyway, Chu'er's leather whip is on the way to be drawn, and you, a peeping apprentice, just stand in place and be a target.
Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the effect of the same illusion on different people is often very different.
For example, in the social experiments cited above, only the new generation born in the era of the Internet explosion will be particularly sensitive to the suggestive patterns used in the experiments, after all, many elderly people usually do not use mobile networks at all, and naturally do not feel whether the WIFI signal is full.
It is precisely because the old-fashioned wall clock that constantly shakes the pendulum has completely faded from people's lives that people today are almost no longer hypnotized by the trick of shaking their pocket watches in front of them.
This is the reason why Yang Congxun can easily fall into Qingli's illusion, but Hu San is not interested in it.
In addition to the illusion resistance obtained from his father, the bareback cunning fox, Qingli's illusion is obviously mainly aimed at humans.
For Hu San, is there a woman bathing in the spring water...... It has nothing to do with the third master, but if it is a roast chicken that is spraying fragrant oil, it will be very different.
More details about illusion will appear later, especially that Chu'er will cooperate with Qingli and use various means to create a more suitable output environment for Qingli...... Compared with the combination of Hu San and Yang Congxun, Qingli is the main firepower output of this women's group.
After all, the lethality of this thing is too great, as long as you can control the other party's mind, and then jump into a pot of molten iron that is melting and boiling, even if T1000, a liquid metal robot armed with future technology, will immediately be scrapped and turned into steel slag......
The old rules, I know what will happen next, please be patient and look forward to the unfolding of the text.
