"You don't need to take a knife," Fang Fei said. "We do physical fitness and strength training all year round in diving. My strength is no less than yours." The power can't resist it, so even holding a knife won't do anything."
Weidong Luoxiao: "...Okay."
"Then, let's agree on a simple set of marks." Mu Yi looked at Fang Fei.
"Xue Ge didn't have enough time to leave more information. It's considered that we didn't think carefully beforehand," Mu Yiran took the bamboo slip and pen, "Let's agree on some quick and easy-to-write marks to indicate All meanings, please write them down, and if you can, leave as much information as you can about what you see - sorry for saying that to you."
"It doesn't matter." Fang Fei was calm and calm, like a soldier who was going to carry out a mission with no return.
"If you see a 'chicken' in the true sense, please draw a '√' on the bamboo slip," Mu Yiran didn't waste much time, and quickly got to the point, drawing on the bamboo slip and saying, "If it's just a Plant something that starts with the word 'chicken', and you don't have time to write its full name, please draw '○';
"If you think it can be eliminated with human power, please draw a 'one' above the √ or ○, and if you are not sure, draw a 'one' below;
"If you are sure that the person who ignited the horn will not survive, draw a right slash on the √ or ○, if you think the signature can only be found by igniting the horn, but the person who ignited the horn will die, draw a left slash, if you are sure that the horn is paired It is useless to look for a signature, neither draw √ nor draw ○, draw '×';
"If you see the signature, try to write it down, but if it's too late, draw a '△', if the signature is in the sea, draw a wavy line above the △, if it's on a boat, draw a straight line above it, if..."
In this way, Mu Yiran specified corresponding signs for almost all possible situations, and asked Fang Fei to memorize them in her heart, and even asked Wei Dong to help her after she had memorized them well, to deepen her memory by asking random questions. .
The next time, it seems, only wait for the night to come. Ke Xun went to get some food. After everyone had eaten, the whole morning was used to make up for sleep.
In the afternoon, everyone briefly recounted the hallucinations they had experienced last night, and sure enough, the hallucinations experienced by everyone were all to deceive people through anger.
"It's worth noting that the rope that Luo Meng was tied to his body disappeared in the illusion last night, and the rope reappeared on him until the illusion was withdrawn after dawn." Shao Ling said, "But Wei Dong The pen in the husband’s hand has not disappeared, if the mobile phone has not disappeared, it can also be explained as something from outside the painting, then why did the pen, which is the same as the rope as the original object in the painting, not disappear?”
"Probably because the rope restricted the radish's movement and hindered the phantom's behavior to trick him into falling into the sea, so the phantom lost it," Ke Xun said, "it's as if the walls of the room are also The illusion is changed, but everything that will hinder us from falling into the sea will be cleared by the illusion."
"That radish is amazing," Wei Dong patted Luo Xing's shoulder, "He used a rope as a warning object, the rope was lost by the illusion, he lost the warning object, and he was able to hold on. "
"Maybe it's because of last night's vision that I didn't feel so angry that I couldn't control myself," Luo Meng scratched his head, "I don't have any temper, and I rarely get angry since I was a child. Look at me being a fool. I have never fought or quarreled with anyone. Even if someone is provocative, I will either ignore it or apologize directly to them. Whether it is my fault or not, I can't get angry anyway. I'm not interested in being honest with others..."
Luo Yu was talking when he suddenly realized that Mu Yiran, Shao Ling, and Zhu Haowen were all staring at him.
"Then please think about it now, what can make you angry and out of control?" Shao Ling said to him.
Luo Meng thought about it for a long time, and finally shook his head in embarrassment: "I can't think of it, I even imagined the possibility that I was forced by a man, and I don't feel very angry..."
Everyone: "… "
"What if someone abused your parents in the most vicious language?" Wei Dong pointed.
"Look, if I don't let the other party scold, the other party will obviously not listen to me. If I scold the other party, this kind of thing is meaningless at all. If I want to hit the other party to stop him from scolding, he should I will continue to scold unless I kill the other party, but I can't kill anyone, right?" Luo Meng said lightly, "And people who insult other people's parents, the fundamental purpose is to anger others, why should I let this happen? If the other party wants me to be angry, I will not be angry, the other party wants me to be unhappy, why should I let him get what he wants?"
"…Oh my God, this kid has a really good mentality," Wei Dong said to Ke Xun while stuttering, "I'm starting to like him."
"But what if the other party took the insulting content into action?" Shao Ling asked further. This was a tactful statement, but everyone understood what he meant.
No one can stand this happening.
Luo Meng thought about it for a while and replied, "If that's the case, I may only hate myself, no matter what the reason is for this to happen, it's me, a son who has no ability to protect his parents, but, This emotion should not be anger, but self-blame."
Everyone was silent for a while, before Shao Ling looked at Mu Yiran: "Luo Yu is a person who can hardly generate anger, so last night he survived the illusion of the illusion more easily than us without warnings. ."
"That is to say," said Qin Ci, "out of the seven emotions of human beings, which one is the most sensitive to, we are more likely to die in the illusion created by which emotion, and vice versa, there is a chance survive."
"So the one who can live to the end is someone who has no emotions?" Zhu Haowen sarcastically said, "That's probably only a monk who is empty of all four."
"No, it doesn't necessarily mean that emotions and desires are completely eliminated," Shao Ling said. "Maybe it only needs to be like Luo Xie. It's not that he can't get angry, he's just more shallow in this emotion. Then If a person is very indifferent in these seven basic emotions, it seems to have some detachment and indifference, as if the illusion is filtered in this way, and only the mentality is better in the end. , more otherworldly people."
"Screening?" Ke Xun's eyes suddenly lit up, and he met Mu Yi's gaze, "Yes, it is screening! Isn't this painting about Xu Fu taking a boy and a virgin to go out to sea in search of immortals? Not all mortals can see what they want to see. If they want to ask for immortals, there must be something different from ordinary people, and they have to go through numerous tests, right? Isn’t immortals only able to become immortals by abandoning the emotions and desires of mortals? To ask for immortals, you have to go through layers of trials, and the illusion that this ship encountered at sea should be the trial that immortals gave them."
"I think this inference is very possible," Mu Yiran said after taking his words, "but this ship, I don't think Xu Fu himself was on board.
"That time when he went to sea, according to records, Xu Fu took two or three thousand boys and girls, plus eight hundred crossbow soldiers, and no hundreds of craftsmen. Several or even hundreds of ships form a huge fleet to go out to sea.
"Limited to the navigation technology at the time and the force majeure that may occur at sea, not all ships can eventually reach the same goal.
"Where did Xu Fu's ship finally arrive? There is no conclusion yet. Some say that he reached the island country, some say that he reached the Chaogu Peninsula, and some say that he arrived in the Americas. The most popular theory is that he arrived at the island country.
"But since ancient arrows and other cultural relics engraved with seal inscriptions have also been unearthed near San Francisco in the Americas, we may think that this fleet was once displaced on the boundless and dangerous sea, and eventually went in different directions. .
"So there may be such a ship among them. It found the right way by mistake, entered the way to the fairyland, and accepted the trial from the 'immortal'."
Speaking of this, Mu Yiran suddenly fell into thought, and Shao Ling took his words and said at the end: "So this trial is based on the seven emotions of people, but those who are easily angered and easily hated, those who are prone to joy and sorrow, those who are prone to fall in love and Desires, such people do not have the predestined relationship with immortals. They are too heavy-handed to become immortals. They are screened and eliminated in the trial of seven nights, and the remaining talents are finally eligible to obtain the path to immortality.
"As the Taoists say, 'sex is the main factor of seven, life is the main factor of three', and the cultivation of xinxing is very important for cultivating Taoism and immortality. Danger to life.
"Then embodied in this painting based on the story of Dongdu's search for immortals, the seven emotions that human beings have are the so-called 'sex'.
"So, if we don't want to die in the trials that follow in the next few nights, we must try our best to calm ourselves and not let any emotion dictate our actions and thoughts."
"Unexpectedly, we went to the painting to cultivate immortals." Wei Dong was a little dumbfounded, looking at Luo Xiao next to him, "So, I think the radish is most likely to survive to the end, and one who is so weak character."
Luo Yao: "...Brother, are you complimenting me? I'm not happy at all."
"No, Luo Yu is timid and has committed the 'fear' in the Seven Emotions," Shao Ling looked at Luo Yu, "I want to ask Mr. Luo, deep down in your heart, what are you most afraid of?"
Luo Meng thought for a while, then shivered: "I'm most afraid of Sadako and Gaya, if Illusion creates a ghost like this to crawl over me, even if I know it's an illusion, I'll definitely be scared and run for my life. On... I don't think I can survive the 'fear' game..."
As he spoke, there was a trembling in his throat, and there was wetness in his eyes.
"So I think that what we need to do most now is to find a way to overcome our most vulnerable emotion," Shao Ling looked at the crowd sternly, "Although psychological problems will take a long time to adjust slowly, there is a problem. This approach may work in the short term, and I think we can try it.”
"What method?" Luo Meng asked hurriedly.
Under the gazes of everyone, Shao Ling replied word by word, "Crash therapy."
