Popular science says oxygen is poisonous, and the whole internet scolds me for being sick

Chapter 2 Resurrection of Spiritual Qi?

As a scientific researcher, the most important quality is calmness.

It requires the calmness that remains unmoved even when the mountain collapses.

Ye Zhen did a good job in this aspect.

Although this is my first time on stage and my first time as a host.

But Ye Zhen was not nervous at all.

Although Ye Zhen has never given a speech on stage since he was a child, nor has he ever spoken under the national flag.

When standing under the light, Ye Zhen was calm and calm.

Although it is the program with the lowest ratings on the TV station.

But some basic configurations are still there.

Ye Zhen looked at the camera with an indifferent expression. No one knew what was going on in this young man's mind.

What a world-shaking idea.

The off-camera cameraman raised his hand.

"Count down to three!"

"three."

"two."

"one."

Ye Zhen's eyes were bright and shining under the light.

"Hello everyone, welcome to our "Into Science Popularization"."

"I am your new host Ye Zhen."

Ye Zhen introduced himself calmly and generously.

Producer Chen, who was supposed to be watching from the sidelines, didn't know where to fish at this time.

Because Producer Chen knows that this program has the lowest ratings.

Not worth his while to stare at.

Because it doesn’t matter whether you look at it or not, it’s better not to waste this time.

Ye Zhen faced the camera with a smile. Ye Zhen's voice was clear and crisp, making people feel like they were in the spring breeze.

"Oxygen is one of the essential things in our lives."

"Humans can live for 30 days without eating and only drinking water."

"If you don't drink water, you can only live for seven days."

"But if we don't breathe."

"It only takes 6 minutes and we'll be dead."

"So compared to food and water, oxygen is what we need most."

Although there are not many viewers watching "Into Popular Science".

But there is still a point, because the inverse of the ratings is not 0.

"What the host said makes sense!"

"The new host is so handsome."

"Can you survive for 30 days just by drinking water? Then I can save money on food this month!"

Ye Zhen slowly began to enter the theme.

It is a very good choice for popular science.

But at this time, Ye Zhen changed the topic.

"But I'm telling you today."

"Oxygen is extremely toxic to us humans."

"Oxygen is poisonous, do you believe it?"

As soon as Ye Zhen said these words, the TV crew present were shocked.

What kind of shocking statement is this?
Is oxygen toxic?Doesn’t that mean we are breathing poisonous gas every day?
Ye Zhen just smiled lightly, "Then let me give you an example."

"If everyone who breathed it died, then is oxygen poisonous?"

When Ye Zhen explained it like this, everyone felt that it really made sense.

Some viewers looked like are you kidding me?

"Everyone who drank the water died! Is the water poisonous?"

"It seems that everyone who actually breathed is dead. The host is right."

"This is not a popular science program, it's a comedy show."

"I breathe every day, why haven't I been poisoned to death?"

Ye Zhen ignored the others and began to speak slowly.

"Oxygen is something that slowly corrodes our lives."

"Oxygen has been involved in reactions in our bodies since the beginning of our lives."

"The reason humans age is because of oxidation."

"Everything in the world will be corroded by oxygen."

"Iron nails will rust, and cut apples will slowly turn yellow." "The culprit of all this is oxygen."

At first everyone thought it was a joke.

Unexpectedly, what Ye Zhen said did have scientific basis and truth.

Ye Zhen picked up an apple prepared on the table.

Cut the apple in half with a knife and place it on the table.

"Everyone must have had this experience."

"A cut apple will turn yellow soon after being exposed to air."

Ye Zhen picked up another iron nail that was already rusty.

The iron nail no longer looks like its original shape.

"There are also these rusty iron nails, everyone has seen them."

"This is a new iron nail that has not been corroded by oxygen."

Ye Zhen held a rusty iron nail in his left hand and a new iron nail in the other hand.

Any normal person can see the difference between the two.

Ye Zhen picked up a hammer and struck on different nails.

The iron nails that have not been corroded are almost intact, with only some knocking marks.

The rusty iron nails were completely flattened.

Just when Ye Zhen was doing experiments.

The apple that was just cut has turned dark yellow, and yellow spots have begun to appear on it.

"All of this is because of oxygen."

"This toxic oxygen is corroding everything we have."

"Including us humans." Ye Zhen said with firm eyes, "The reason why we humans age."

"It's because of the oxygen."

"The emergence of oxygen is completely a huge conspiracy!"

"Without oxygen, our human lifespan would be much longer."

That’s why some skin care products now emphasize antioxidants.

Because one of the biggest reasons for human aging is the presence of oxygen.

If an ordinary person lives in a place with high oxygen concentration for a long time.

Then this person will age more easily than ordinary people.

In other words, the life span will become shorter.

Ye Zhen's remarks really shocked everyone watching the show.

"Oxygen seems to be really poisonous?"

“Are we breathing poison gas from the day we are born?”

"And it's a fact that nails, apples, and us humans are all oxidized by oxygen."

Ye Zhen looked at the oxidized apples on the table.

“But at the same time, oxygen is also spiritual energy.”

"If we use oxygen well, living to be [-] years old is not a problem."

Ye Zhen actually came up with two completely opposite conclusions.

I just said that oxygen is poisonous gas, and now I actually say that oxygen is spiritual energy.

Isn't this contradictory?
"I think this host is schizophrenic."

"My brain is starting to feel bad. What oxygen is spiritual energy?"

"Aura? Does he think he is cultivating immortality? Resurrection of aura? He must have read too many novels."

"It's so funny. I just said it was poisonous gas and now I'm saying it's spiritual energy."

Everyone present at the TV station couldn't bear it any longer.

Because Ye Zhen is really too much nonsense.

At first it was said that oxygen is highly toxic, but now it is said that oxygen is spiritual energy.

This is inconsistent.

Ye Zhen started to say again: "Because of the emergence of oxygen, we have our current prosperity."

"There was no oxygen on the blue star back then."

"There are only some archaea, and these archaea don't need oxygen to survive."

"They survived for a billion years."

"At that time, there was only this monotonous life."

"But with the advent of oxygen, more and more organisms began to flourish."

"This is the biological boom, what we call the biological explosion."

"You can also regard it as the first revival of spiritual energy."

Resurrection?
