The fifth master glanced at Su Yu and said faintly, "It's very simple. They have something to ward off evil spirits... Ever since they fell into the dream... they haven't gone in... And what you see has always been them in the dream. They belong to The second type of person I mentioned was invented by the dreamer."
Su Yu suddenly realized something. It seemed that after returning from Yunnan, when Pudding and Douding appeared, they were all hallucinations created by the dreamer, and the real twins had never entered the dream. Something to ward off evil spirits? Su Yu tried hard to recall, and suddenly thought that the twins seemed to have always been wearing a pair of white jade gourds around their necks. They were given by Lu Yan when they were just born. They are said to be priceless... Jade itself has the effect of warding off evil spirits, and it may also be Lu Yan's gift. Did you turn this thing on before smoking or something
That makes sense...
"Fifth Master... Why are dream makers afraid of amulets and white jade in their dreams?"
Su Yu turned into a curious baby at this time and asked all the questions in his heart.
The fifth master replied slowly, "How can I tell you? Let me use an analogy... Dreamers and hypnotists, although they are the top technologies in the development of science and technology... are not superstitious. They are the opinions of ordinary people. From our Taoist point of view, after creating a dream, letting others fall into the dream... and thereby achieving some purpose, we can call it evil magic... Just like when you watch a costume drama, someone practices martial arts. Although the martial arts is strong, it is the same as the evil way... Good and evil There is no contradiction... evil things must have something to subdue them, so at this time, whether it is an amulet, a charm, a Great Compassion Mantra, or white jade, it becomes a way to avoid evil things. "
"If you say that, I kind of understand." Su Yu nodded thoughtfully.
"But your point is that you subconsciously imposed your amulet on yourself in a dream. You don't have a real amulet..." said the fifth master.
"Yes, I asked for the amulet from my mother after I came back." Su Yu touched the amulet with mixed feelings in his heart.
"So what really saved you was not the amulet. After all, it didn't really exist in the dream."
"Those should be those verses I learned by mistake. Because my mother believes in Buddhism, I often listen to her recite the Great Compassion Mantra. Over time, I have also been affected a little."
Su Yu followed the fifth master's thinking and revealed the secret for himself. Suddenly he felt that the mystery was getting smaller and smaller, and it felt like the clouds would soon clear up.
The Fifth Master nodded, "There's nothing wrong with you saying that. The Great Compassion Mantra is indeed a very important point, but it's not the most critical. The most critical thing is... you already felt something was wrong in the dream... Although you didn't directly Figure it out, but your thinking logic has begun to guide you... It's like a person dreaming, and then he kind of knows that he is dreaming, so what really saves you is not your amulet, not your Great Compassion Mantra, but yours self conscious."
If ordinary people heard this, they would definitely be stunned.
But Su Yu understood instantly...
Indeed, many times in dreams, I felt something was wrong...
I felt something was wrong with Huo Mian after returning from Yunnan, I felt something was wrong with Qin Chu's condition, I felt something was wrong with having dinner with Huo Mian in the deep palace under the sea...
Therefore, Su Yu was the only one among these people who did not completely believe in the dream, so he was able to be sent out with the help of the amulet and the Great Compassion Curse, and he escaped death...
"But Master Five, I still don't know something."
"you say."
"The timing is wrong. I asked the housekeeper of my friend's house. My friend and his wife came back to sleep last night... Logically speaking, it was only one night... But in the dream, it seemed like more than a month had passed. , Time is confused... What's going on? Do we return to reality every day and dream at night?" Su Yu became more and more confused as he thought about it.
