Chapter 307 The true meaning of life

Qin Jiang thought for a while and then said, "You may not believe it, but I was actually quite afraid of death when I was a child."

Liu Yan widened her eyes and looked at Qin Jiang with curiosity.

This did give her a sense of contrast.

Because Qin Jiang had seen so many patients, every time he gave Liu Yan a feeling of being indifferent to life and death and feeling relaxed.

So when Qin Jiang said that he was also afraid of death, Liu Yan felt a little bit unconvinced.

Qin Jiang continued, "Have you ever been given anesthesia? Do you know what it feels like to be anesthetized?"

Liu Yan shook her head.

She has always been in good health and has never had any surgery, so naturally she has never used any anesthesia.

Qin Jiang thought for a moment and then said, "Have you ever had the feeling of lying down to sleep and opening your eyes to the next morning?"

Liu Yan nodded.

"I have had this experience. I looked it up online. This is called high-quality sleep, right? It means you can sleep without any dreams, and you can close your eyes and open them the next day."

In fact, human body functions recover fastest during deep sleep.

This is also why when modern medicine studies sleep, it always hopes to extend a person's deep sleep time as much as possible, so that it can help people restore energy and physical strength in a very short time.

But unfortunately, deep sleep has always had a standard routine.

First comes light sleep, rapid eye movement, and then deep sleep.

However, when some people are very tired, the situation Qin Jiang described may occur.

I closed my eyes and opened them again, and the night was over.

Not only Liu Yan, many netizens in the live broadcast room actually had this experience.

Therefore, Qin Jiang continued, "In fact, most people believe that this is the state after a person dies. There is no feeling at all, and it returns directly to nothingness."

“This feeling of nothingness is the state between closing your eyes and opening them, except that this state will last forever.”

"Can you imagine what it feels like to have no feelings?"

When Qin Jiang said this, netizens in the live broadcast room initially thought that Qin Jiang was telling a tongue twister.

But when they read it carefully and tried to understand it, they broke out in a cold sweat.

"Fuck, I'm lying in bed right now, trying to figure out what it feels like to not feel anything, guys, this is terrifying!"

"I can't imagine it at all. How could such a state exist? There is no way there can be 'eternal nothingness' in this world, right?"

"Dr. Qin is really awesome. For the first time, I understood why people are most afraid of the unknown. He succeeded in scaring me."

Nothing that people can imagine is actually the most terrifying.

The scariest things are the things you can't imagine.

Just like what Qin Jiang just said about death - eternal nothingness.

It is because the human brain cannot imagine what it feels like to have no feeling.

So from childhood to adulthood, every time when it was late at night and Qin Jiang lay alone in bed, looking at the dark ceiling, he would feel deeply afraid because of this problem.

Liu Yan also felt that she was scared and broke out in a cold sweat. But she still asked with gritted teeth: "Then, Doctor Qin, are you still scared now?"

Qin Jiang shook his head.

"I do not know either."

"At least now when I'm alone at night, I won't think about this horrible problem anymore."

"Because as my friends and relatives around me became fewer and fewer, and as I came into contact with more and more patients of all kinds, I became numb after seeing so many separations and deaths."

"Sometimes I would think, since my relatives and friends have all experienced death, even if death is a terrible thing, why should I be afraid of it?"

"If there really is another world, or reincarnation, then at least I can see my relatives and friends again, right?"

As soon as Qin Jiang said this, the netizens in the live broadcast room instantly breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were healed by Qin Jiang's words.

Many netizens began to share their experiences.

"That's true. When I was a kid, I was very afraid of pain, including injections and blood draws. But when I grew up, I didn't know when, but when I went to the hospital to have blood drawn for a physical examination, I didn't feel any pain at all. That's when I realized that physical pain is nothing compared to the pain in life."

"I was brought up by my grandparents. After they passed away three years ago, I felt like I became more numb and I was not so afraid of death anymore."

"Brothers, I'm a little worse off than you. I was just diagnosed with colon cancer last week and will be going for further tests soon. I would be lying if I said I wasn't afraid, but when I think about the savings I've left for my family after working so hard for so many years, I'm not afraid anymore. I've already made an agreement with my family that if the disease can't be cured, we won't have it treated. There's no point in losing both our money and our lives."

Looking at these comments from netizens, Liu Yan was deeply touched.

It turns out that everyone has their own unique understanding of life and death.

Some people go from being very scared, to becoming numb, and then to no longer being scared.

There are also people who are always afraid, but they know that this is a fact that cannot be changed, so they accept it.

Liu Yan put herself in the perspective of these people, especially those with terminal illnesses.

It was a feeling of helplessness and despair.

Since death is inevitable, think about leaving something for your family.

Also, when I think back on my past, I will think about whether I have worked hard and whether I have left anything valuable in this world.

After thinking about it this way, Liu Yan felt as if she had found the true meaning of life.

Just then, two women walked into the clinic from outside.

One of the two women is young, in her early twenties.

There was another one who was older, probably around 40 or 50 years old.

They look like a mother and daughter.

As soon as Qin Jiang raised his head and looked at the two of them, the young woman said, "Doctor Qin, please help my mother. What happened to her? She was fine at home, but suddenly she became like this."

Qin Jiang looked closely and found that the middle-aged woman's face was pale, her lips were purple, and cold sweat was coming out of her forehead.

Qin Jiang immediately asked the middle-aged woman to sit down, and then asked: "Does your mother have hypoglycemia?"

The young woman quickly shook her head and said, "No, my mother doesn't have this disease, and we have three meals a day normally."

"Just now we were eating lychees together."
