Chapter 153: The Dream Stone and the Dream Controller (4)
Milton. Erickson also studied hypnosis very hard, and early in his career, he would write a fifteen-page hypnotic induction for a specific case, cut it down to ten, to five, and finally to two pages, before he would use it on his patients. He would even practice cues in the mirror. If the child's friend seems to be an interesting hypnotic subject, he will ask his parents for permission to let him work with the child and perform the hypnosis experiment that evening.
March 25, 1980, Milton. Erickson died of an acute infection. Before death, he was always active and in a fairly healthy state. Some of his teaching stories are about patients with slow pain. These patients were able to continue to live active lives since using his technique, until they suddenly fell into a coma and died peacefully. In a similar situation, Milton. Erickson suddenly fell into unconsciousness on March 23, 1980, and remained semi-conscious for two days until his death on Tuesday night, March 25, at the age of 79. When he passed away peacefully, his family was all around him. Until the last minute, Milton. Erickson tries to keep his teaching trip as close as possible.
Milton. Erickson became a leading figure in the field of hypnosis in the twentieth century, and was also the founder of short-term psychotherapy, and had a great influence on the founding of NLP. In the clinical application of NLP, Erickson's idiomatic technique can often be seen.
Many argue that Sigundfreud's contribution lies in the theory of healing, Milton. Erickson's contribution lies in the practice of therapy. Milton. Erickson has published more cases in the psychotherapy literature than any clinician; He has invented more techniques than any other practitioner, and some of his inventions remain unexplained to this day.
This is a very great figure in the hypnosis world, not to mention many hypnotists, even if they are now dream controllers, they still regard each other as idols, and spend their lives studying each other's theories, although the other party has left, but his influence has not disappeared.
Maybe it was because he couldn't make Wu Ling appear ignorant, or because he didn't want one of his idols to be just a symbol in Wu Ling's heart, so the old man told Wu Ling about Erickson's life.
Hearing the old man's introduction, Wu Ling nodded slowly, he admitted that this was a fairly good hypnotist, but he was only a hypnotist, so how could the other party have such a big influence among the dream controllers?
Perhaps seeing Wu Ling's doubts, the old man then said, "Do you think that Erickson is just an ordinary person, how can he have the ability to influence the Dream Controllers!" ”
Wu Ling nodded: "Indeed, I'm a little puzzled, because how could an excellent dream controller die so easily. ”
"We are dream controllers, not supernatural beings, although we have power beyond ordinary people, but we are not like supernatural beings, once life can evolve, it can keep life for a long time. On the contrary, because the Dream Controller consumes mental power, the more powerful the Dream Controller, the easier it is to consume mental power. The consumption of mental power is easily overdrawn into the body, so the dream controller is only the life of an ordinary person at most! ”
The old man's voice came faintly, although it was flat, Wu Ling could still feel the unwillingness in the other party's tone.
In fact, it is also normal, with the old man's current strength, the average C-level ability is not an opponent at all, even if it is an ordinary B-level ability, it may be cut down in a dream, that is to say, the old man is actually a C-level super strong person at worst.
Although Wu Ling didn't know how long he could live, his life level was greatly extended because of several enhancements of energy. If he didn't fight more intensely, didn't consume energy, and wasn't killed by more powerful abilities, with his current body, he could live to be more than one hundred and fifty years old, and with a little attention, it was really not impossible to be more than two hundred years old.
This is just a simple entry into the C rank, and when the C rank is further strengthened, then the life level will be further increased, and this increase is almost infinite. Therefore, the worst C-rank peak can naturally survive for five hundred years, let alone a higher-level B-level ability.
Those who have reached this point, not to mention immortality, but their life consumption has been greatly reduced, and they can compete with the turtle to see who lives longer.
No matter how strong the strength is, but the survival time is so short, everyone is a little unwilling. You know, not everyone is willing to be a summer flower, although it is beautiful, but it is too short-lived, at least the old man does not want to.
But even if he is unwilling, even if he is unwilling, he can only choose to accept it, because even if he is unwilling, he can't bear it, everything seems to be doomed.
Wu Ling was stunned for this matter, but he didn't say anything. Although I feel that it seems a little bad for the dream controller, I can't help but breathe a sigh of relief in my heart, at least, there is no dream controller in this world who is too rebellious.
The power of the Dream Controller, he could feel it just now, it was an extraordinary power. And the most frightening thing is that the most fearful thing about the dream controller is not because of the strength of the other party, but because of the weirdness of the other party.
It can be said that no matter who it is, they will dream, even if the other party is a low-level supernatural person, or a person who stands at the top of the supernatural world. Once they sleep, there is a high chance that they will fall into a dream. For ordinary people, such dreams may be just a simple rest and entertainment, but for dream controllers, this is their home field.
Here, they can control everything, they can perceive everything in it. So no matter how deep the hidden things are, they will be revealed in the dream, and the dream controller can see all this, and everyone in the whole world seems to have no secrets in front of them, how can this not be shocking.
Other people have secrets, Wu Ling also has them, and even Wu Ling's hidden secrets can make the whole world crazy. So he didn't want the other party to know everything about him, and now at the level of an old man, he could barely resist the other party's invasion. But what if there were even more powerful Dream Controllers? Is it in your sleep, everything about yourself has been known?
This is something that Wu Ling will never allow, so now that he heard the old man's words, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Because according to the old man, the dream controller almost just has the life of an ordinary person, and it is unlikely that it will continue to increase at all. And when using dreams, there is also a consumption of spiritual power, and then it drives the aging of **, so that the more powerful the dream controller, especially the advanced dream controller, the faster the speed of death.
A drink and a peck, all are destined. The power of the dream controller does not need to be described too much, and the most amazing thing about the dream controller is that the average dream controller can grow naturally after awakening, and it doesn't need much training at all, and it can become a very lethal dream controller in a short period of time.
Perhaps it is because of the strength of the dream controller and the growth of the other party that the existence in the dark does not allow the dream controller to enjoy a higher life. Because, if such a dream controller really exists, then it is too terrifying.
After thinking about it, Wu Ling couldn't help but think of the current supernatural person, who is also unimaginably powerful for ordinary people. Since there is a cause and effect in the dark, what kind of cause does the supernatural have to endure while enjoying the present effect?
Although he had this strange thought, Wu Ling didn't think about it deeply. The existence of the Comparative Alien in this space is no longer a matter of one or two years, but it is still alive after fifty years, and the cause and effect of it should have already appeared, and now that he doesn't know, it only means that his current level is still not enough.
In this way, as long as he works hard to improve his strength, sooner or later, all the answers to the mystery will appear in front of him.
"I see!" Wu Ling nodded, indicating that he understood, as for the other words, he didn't say anything, because at this time, no matter what he said, it was a stimulus for the old man.
It's like when a billionaire listens to a poor man complaining that he is poor, and unless the rich man says that he wants to give his property to the other party, whether it is a comforting conversation or a mocking conversation, it will be the same in the other person's heart, it will only be ridicule.
The old man didn't think about letting Wu Ling comfort him, after all, this was a thing that hadn't changed in nearly a hundred years, and at the beginning, maybe he still wanted to find something to unlock the spell that appeared on his body. But by this time, he was already old. Whether it is physical or mental, there is already a trace of exhaustion, they no longer have the passion they used to have, and they are hungry without the perseverance they used to have.
At this time, he can only choose to accept it, and he can only choose to be enlightened, because since everything is doomed and there is no way to change it, they can only accept this only result.
Looking at the young man standing lightly beside him, there was envy and jealousy in the old man's eyes that could not be concealed, why are they all non-humans, but only their lives must be limited, not only will the other party not have any restrictions on life, but will even increase the length of life, which makes his heart still a little tangled.
Of course, such emotions are only fleeting, and if he can't see through this thing for most of his life, he won't be able to get to this point. After collecting his mood, he continued.
"Of course, the Dream Controller's appearance, in addition to Erickson, is more because of an item, and this item is not unfamiliar to you. It is also because of it that you must have all kinds of tests! ”
