Chapter 2207
"Really? Is little Bernard scared?" Kai held little Bernard's small body, with a lazy look on his face.
To be honest, Kai was really scared this time. After all, it was just a little bit, really just a little bit, and the earth would be finished. The excitement of this thing was comparable to the last time Kai traveled through time.
Kai was born with a broken back. He was a policeman in his previous life. During a gunfight with drug dealers during a capture operation, he was killed by a bullet while trying to cover his teammates. He still remembers that moment very clearly.
When the bullet hit his body, Kai didn't feel much. At the moment of being hit by the bullet, he just felt a force entering his body, just like being punched by someone. After a few seconds, he felt numb, and finally felt pain, and blood couldn't stop flowing out. During this process, the pain was not strong. To be honest, this surprised Kai.
I didn't expect that being shot wouldn't hurt that much.
However, I heard that the wound was extremely painful during the subsequent bandaging process, which seemed to be more painful than when he was just shot. Kai once heard from his predecessors that the moment he was shot, he felt a slight pressure, and then the wound began to bleed, and an extremely strong pain quickly spread throughout his body. This kind of pain is almost impossible to describe in words. It is like the body is pierced by a sharp object. It is painful from the skin to the bones. It hurts so much that it makes people unable to breathe and their faces turn red. After being sent to the hospital, the doctor first injected anesthetic near the wound, and then took the bullet out of the wound. He told Kai that the doctor gave him a small dose of local anesthesia, but when removing the bullet, there was still a subtle soreness. He could even feel the doctor's tweezers constantly searching in his body.
Of course, Kai didn’t feel anything like the latter. He just felt the wound was a little hot first, then his whole body became cold, and then Kai knew that he had been shot.
Kai was very panicked at that time and felt that he was going to be in trouble.
Sure enough, he was really unlucky. After traveling through time, he recalled that he seemed to have been hit in the chest, but he didn't pay attention to where it was at the time. It was probably hit in the artery, otherwise he wouldn't have died so quickly.
As for why his situation was different from that of his predecessors, Kai actually tried to find out after coming to the modern era.
Here we have to say that the United States is really a natural place for treating gunshot wounds. According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States, about 2017 people died from gunshots in 4 in the United States alone, but the number of people shot far exceeds this. In other words, many people who were shot survived, which is a blessing in disguise. And these survivors of shootings have revealed the mystery of this issue to us.
In China, gun control is extremely strict. Ordinary people may not even have seen a real gun, let alone been shot. So every year, China organizes doctors to come to the United States to study... just like Japan's parasite treatment is the world leader.
It’s a treasure of Tianhua.
There has been so much shooting in the United States that they are experienced.
So Kai also found the reason why his description was different from that of his predecessor.
Let me first explain how pain is produced. Pain makes people feel very uncomfortable. After being injured, pain will not only affect activities, but also affect the mood of the injured. For example, people with toothaches often have unbearable pain and have to bang their heads against the wall or even slap their swollen cheeks with hard objects. And those who have undergone major surgery will experience unbearable pain after the anesthetic effect wears off. At this time, analgesics are often injected to relieve the situation. Many people have found that proper massage can also effectively suppress pain, and small clinics often use hot compresses to relieve pain. In short, pain is a wonderful feeling. Everyone has different tolerance and feels different pain. People can't help but wonder why they feel unbearable pain when they are injured. This uncomfortable feeling seriously affects the lives of the injured. What is the meaning behind this? In fact, this is a protective mechanism of organisms in nature. It allows us to clearly know which part of the body is injured and reminds us to pay attention to that part.
This is conducive to wound healing, preventing the damage from expanding and endangering our lives. Imagine if humans had no sense of pain, we wouldn't even feel hot when we drank boiled water. It was not until a few days later when the esophagus and mouth became ulcerated and inflamed that we knew we were burned, which was very scary. The same is true for animals. If they do not pay attention to protecting the wound, then there is a high probability of tissue necrosis or death from infection. In addition, the feeling of pain actually has prerequisites. Modern scientists believe that it is inaccurate for people to call this uncomfortable feeling pain, because its essence is an output of brain information. When the stimulation of the nerve endings exceeds a certain threshold, this area will transmit information to the brain, and the brain will identify it in a very short time, and then judge whether to output the pain signal based on the environment.
As for how much pain you feel, it is also entirely determined by a certain area of the brain.
This is the fundamental reason why the pain sensation is different for each person even though the injury is the same. In our lives, pain often occurs. Scientists have discovered a strange thing: as long as the attention is diverted, the pain sensation will drop sharply or even disappear completely. A more intuitive phenomenon is that when we fall while walking, we will feel pain quickly. But when you are focusing on a basketball game, the feeling of injury is not so obvious. There are even many players who don’t even know that they are injured and bleeding. The pain spreads throughout the body only after the game is over and they rest. This is also a protective mechanism. The reason is very simple. The brain believes that pain will cause losses to the current situation. In order not to affect the judgment of the injured, it does not release pain signals, or the dose released is very small, which makes it easy for people to ignore it. Animals are also the same in this regard. Take wolves as an example. They often fight in order to seize the status of wolf king. But in the fierce struggle, injuries are inevitable. Sometimes we see in documentaries that the wolf’s skin has been torn and the bones are exposed, but the wolf’s actions are not affected at all, and the struggle is still fierce. The fight is over only when the two sides decide the winner. At this time, the injured wolf will feel unbearable pain and walk with a limp, often using its tongue to clean the wound. This is one of the situations in which the brain determines the release of pain signals. If there is no such protection mechanism, the animal will completely lose its ability to move after being injured, which is not conducive to the subsequent fight or escape. The same is true for those who were shot. On the cruel battlefield, the soldiers had their legs blown off, but they still dragged their remaining limbs to crawl into the trench. When the brain determines that the current environment is safe, the piercing pain arises spontaneously. This is why chronic pain is afraid of heat, because heat promotes circulation, pain signals will be released faster, and the pain will be doubled. In medicine, pain is usually divided into twelve levels. The higher the level, the stronger the pain.
Poisoning can also cause severe pain, like being stung by a wasp. The wound is small, but the pain is extremely intense. This is the brain's warning, reminding you that this is not an ordinary wound and you should take it seriously. So being hit by a bullet is not that scary. As long as it is not a fatal injury, it can be treated with current medical means. But being shot in the head is another matter. When the bullet passes through the brain tissue, the person will instantly lose consciousness and die of brain death before he or she has time to feel the pain.
Obviously, Kai's brain had already concluded that his condition was hopeless and he should just wait to die!
So there is simply no pain response. Or, in other words, the brain does not have time to react.
But death is death, Kai clearly remembered that he had realized at that time that he was going to die heroically.
That kind of panic was simply... Thinking back on it now, he still felt goosebumps all over his body.
So Kai seldom takes the initiative to recall that one, it’s too damn good!
What would have happened to him if he hadn't traveled through time?
do not know.
This crisis is exactly the same as the last one!
No, it's a hundred times worse than last time!
So Kai wants to take a break and relax now. It's so exciting!
"I'm so brave!!!" Little Bernard kept twisting in Kai's arms, as if doing so could strengthen the credibility of his words!
"Lie!" At this time, Emma came to Kai with a plate of fruit and exposed her sister.
"She was crying so hard that Raven's mother was scared. We could only coax her, but she still refused and kept asking for her daddy!"
Emma's words were like a sharp sword, freezing little Bernard.
Then he quickly stood up from Kai's arms, waving his hands, and constantly denied his sister's "slander"!
"No! No! I didn't cry loudly..." But there were so many people around at the time, and it seemed wrong for her to deny it completely. Children of her age already have strong self-esteem. Although adults generally don't care much about their self-esteem, children attach great importance to it. So she decided to modify it: "I just cried a little, just once!"
As she said this, she turned around and faced Kai, making a 'one-nana' gesture with two fingers.
"I stopped crying soon! My mother even praised me for being brave!"
Emma sneered, crossed her arms and said, "Come on! Raven's mother can't stand crying anymore. As long as you don't cry, let alone praise you, I'll even kowtow to you!"
Miss Emma just can't stand children lying! Lying is the behavior of bad children. This is all to educate little Bernard! It's not because since Wayne's father came back, little Bernard has been monopolizing his father by relying on his young age!
In fact, Emma was also scared.
No matter how precocious Emma was, she was only eleven years old. She was really frightened.
That kind of panic is simply uncontrollable!
Every human being had a feeling that a disaster was about to happen at that moment!
Children are particularly sensitive.
"No way!!!" Little Bernard screamed back, his eyes starting to turn red and he looked like he was about to cry.
Kai saw that this was not going to work, so he hugged the little lady and comforted her, "Okay, Dad believes in little Bernard! Little Bernard is the bravest child!"
Little Bernard barely stopped crying: "Are you braver than Elsa?"
The Elsa she was talking about was the protagonist of the movie Frozen. Elsa, the heroine in the Disney movie "Frozen" and its derivative works, is the eldest princess of the Kingdom of Arendelle. She looks noble and elegant, but her heart is cold as ice. She feels lonely because of her powerful magic. When she was a child, her magic almost killed her sister Anna. Since then, she has closed her heart and tried to suppress her power. An accident at the coronation ceremony caused her magic to go out of control, and the kingdom was covered with ice and snow. She was afraid of losing control again, so she fled to the snowy mountains and built a castle with magic.
Elsa, the core character in the Disney movie "Frozen", has stunning beauty and powerful magic. Her long golden hair, pale skin, and gorgeous dresses together create her noble and cold image. Elsa can create all kinds of beautiful and magical ice and snow landscapes at will, and can also control the power of ice and snow to protect herself and others. However, deep in her heart, she is full of self-blame and guilt for having hurt her sister Anna, so she tries to hide her magic ability to avoid repeating the same mistake. Elsa and her sister Anna, as princesses of the Kingdom of Arendelle, once spent a happy childhood together. But an accident forced Elsa to hide her magic ability, which led to a rift between her and Anna. After adulthood, because she could not control her magic ability, Elsa chose to flee the kingdom and live alone in the ice palace on the north mountain. However, when her magic got out of control and caused the kingdom to fall into the eternal winter ice, Anna resolutely decided to embark on an adventure to find and rescue her sister. Elsa has experienced significant growth and changes in the story. At first, she was an introverted girl who was inferior and afraid of her magic ability. However, with the love of her sister and her own courage, she gradually learned to accept and use her abilities to protect herself and others. Spending time with Anna made her open her heart and rebuilt the trust and emotional bond between the sisters. In the end, Elsa successfully saved the kingdom with her courage and determination, and also found her own happiness.
This animated movie is a blast for the little brother and sister!
Little Bernard's room has now been changed to Frozen style.
She is now madly infatuated with the princess.
"Braver than Elsa!" Kaile bit little Bernard's cheek... The child's skin was so tender, especially little Bernard's body, which still had a scent of milk. God knows, she has been weaned for such a long time, why does she still have this smell on her body.
Emma was sulking on the side. She hadn't seen Wayne's father for a long time.
But the problem is that she is a grown-up child and can't be as shameless as little Bernard.
But at this moment, Kai grabbed Emma and held her in his arms. As a child, everything is written on their face.
Very easy to understand!
"I want to watch Frozen!!!" Little Bernard doesn't mind sharing her father's arms with her sister, but she still wants to watch Frozen!
"Ah!!!" Emma wailed. She had seen it many times!
