Chapter 332: The Art of Wishing You

Animals have an instinct, especially mammals, and when judging each other's abilities, the instinctive habit is to judge according to the characteristics of the opponent's body type.

For example, ostriches, as the largest birds, have been able to survive until now, and naturally have their own survival ability, whether it is in combat effectiveness or reproduction ability, they are very good.

However, the ostrich is judging whether the opponent can beat or not, mainly based on the opponent's size, so it is often attacked by agile beasts like cheetahs because of the 'light enemy'.

Moreover, ostriches are still very aggressive, and will take the initiative to expel the 'weak' creatures that invade the territory, so ostriches were a headache for ancient Africans at that time.

Because as soon as the ostrich sees a flock of people, it will quickly run away and cannot be hunted, but when it meets a lonely ancient African, it will pick quarrels and provoke trouble, and the lone person cannot beat the ostrich.

So in the process of dealing with ostriches, slowly groping for its habits, ancient Africans found that ostriches will stretch their heads longer before attacking, so people just raise their hands high and their arms are higher than the top of the ostrich's head, they will scare the ostrich away.

After the ostrich was discovered by humans by relying on its height to bully the soft and afraid of the hard, the ostrich became one of the creatures that ancient Africans ridiculed and choreographed.

This discovery, which has been passed down for thousands of years, finally made the ostrich carry a lot of unscientific stereotypes.

For example, people use the word 'ostrich' as a metaphor to escape cowardice.

There is also a ridiculous story of an ostrich that will stick its head in the sand and steal the bell when it encounters danger.

Science has shown that ostriches live in hot desert areas, where the sun shines strongly, and the hot air rising from the ground, intersecting with the cold air at low altitudes, appears as a result of scattering and shimmering mist.

Usually the ostrich always stretches its neck to look through the mist, and once frightened or detects the enemy, it simply sticks its periscope-like neck flat to the ground, curls up its body, and disguises its dark brown feathers as stones or bushes, plus the cover of the mist, it is difficult to be detected by the enemy.

In addition, the ostrich keeps its head and neck close to the ground, which has two functions: one is to hear distant sounds, which is conducive to avoiding danger early; Second, it can relax the muscles of the neck and better eliminate fatigue.

In fact, ostrich psychology does refer to the life experience of the earliest human beings who used 'weakness' to intimidate ostriches, but it has been misinterpreted from generation to generation.

And this kind of psychology of intimidating the other party is no different in human civilization, in the Chinese civilization, there is a familiar idiom, called the poor skills of the donkey, and the essence of the truth is a bit similar to the ostrich psychology.

This has something to do with the experience that human beings have summed up in the course of evolution, and this experience has been passed down orally in the continuation of civilization, and finally became a kind of social 'common sense'.

Therefore, when human beings meet humans for the first time, they will also judge each other by their external images, such as tall, short, fat and thin, beautiful and ugly, etc.

So for some people who have physical defects on the outside, covering up is a habit that can make them feel comfortable and safe.

For example, most people who have been bullied since childhood will hide their inner fears and flaws by strengthening their bodies.

Kong Ai is a woman dressed as a man, Wang Xu has known for a long time, after all, compared to Qiu He, the guy who is a woman and a woman has more contact, which is very helpful to improve the judgment ability of men and women.

Wang Xu originally thought that Kong Ai was a woman who was raised as a boy because of her family background, so she didn't pay much attention to her 'short and thick' figure.

But now that he has been flooded once, Kong Ai, whose figure has shrunk a lot, still makes Wang Xu stunned.

This kind of behavior is the typical 'ostrich mentality'.

"You don't know water?" Wang Xu looked helplessly at Lu Ai, whose face was pale and frightened, and smiled.

"You! Ahem, ahem! Lu Ai glared at Wang Xu with big red eyes, and was about to scold, but because of annoyance, when he inhaled the water droplets from his hair into his nose, he was choked again and couldn't speak, so he could only hold Wang Xu's arm and half-kneel in the pool and cough.

Wang Xu looked at the small burdens floating out of Lu Ai's sleeves and neckline because of the excessive struggle just now, and his figure, which was originally quite short and thick, shriveled and thinned down at a speed visible to the naked eye, with an unconcealable smile on the corner of his mouth.

No wonder Lu Ai always has a smell of medicinal herbs on his body, and he originally wore a medicine bag to fill his thin figure into a stubby appearance.

This kind of behavior is simply the ancestor of the fraud technology that changed A to D in later generations.

"Ahem, the emperor did it on purpose! It's a bit too deceitful! Lu Ai covered his face, stared at his big bloodshot red eyes, and said angrily.

"It's obvious that you're unsettled and your feet are slipping." Wang Xu shook his hand, pulled his arm out of Lu Ai's arms, looked at the blood marks on it, and said with a smile, "But your finger strength is really good." ”

"You!" Lu Ai was so angry that he didn't take a breath and began to cough again.

"Alright, don't talk." Wang Xu waved his hand, sat back on the wooden chair and looked at the wound on his arm that began to ooze beads of blood, "I won't pursue your guilt, and you don't have to thank you." ”

Lu Ai paused after hearing this, pointed at Wang Xu and couldn't speak, his face was full of shame and unwillingness.

"What? Wronged you? Wang Xu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Let you press my arms, you will press and press it to your shoulders and neck, if it were an ordinary prince, you would have been punished for the crime of plotting to assassinate, and not only that, but even used the technique of blessing to try to induce and deceive me?" ”

Lu Ai stiffened in shock when he heard this, and his face, which had been flushed due to coughing, became bloodless again, and he suddenly knelt in the pool, but the water level was a little high, making him choke on two more mouthfuls of water.

Zhu Youshu, in fact, can be regarded as the earliest hypnotism in China, which is to use words combined with some psychological inferences to induce and guide patients to treat or achieve certain goals.

Zhu Yushu is a kind of witchcraft.

In the ancient Chinese theocracy period, the closest thing to God was the two positions of Wu Zhu, and the status was transcendent.

Wu, I wish you also. Women can do invisible things, and those who dance to séance are also.

Wish, Priest of Praise. From the show, from the person, from the mouth. One is said to be from the province.

A shaman is a person who can communicate with ghosts and spirits, while a wisher is a person who translates the words of ghosts and spirits.

Both of these are groups that mastered and monopolized knowledge in ancient times.

Later, with the gradual decline of divine power, although Wu Zhu in the era of kingship maintained its original function, it also developed other businesses in order to maintain its sense of existence.

The Wu branch has developed Confucianism, Divination, Fortune, History, etc.

The Zhu Department is divided into expenditures, medicine, music, and planning.

Among the blessing doctors, they are also divided into two branches, one relies on physical methods such as herbal medicine and acupuncture, and the other continues the characteristics of the ancestors, using the spiritual treatment method of using charms and words to brainwash.

However, with the breaking of the monopoly of knowledge and the conflict of gods caused by the integration of the tribes of the ancestors of China, the Zhu doctor who relied on charms to cure diseases was slowly eliminated, and this Zhu Yi can also be called the earliest psychiatrist in China from some perspectives.

Although the effect of psychologists in treating trauma is not good, they still have a certain professional level, after all, they have been passed down for many generations, and they will naturally not be cut off.

However, the method of use has also changed from treating people's injuries to treating people's heart diseases.

"The Yellow Emperor's Neijing Su Wen" "Essence Shifting and Qi Transformation Chapter 13" "Zhu You" made the annotation: "Zhu said the cause of the disease, not to work on the needle stone".

Bian Que's Six Incursions says, 'Believe in witches and don't believe in doctors, and the six incurables', strictly distinguishing between psychotherapy and physical therapy, but it does not mean that he has given up psychotherapy, but only distinguishes the two and no longer mixes them.

After all, the physician comes from the witch, and no one who has been a doctor underestimates the effect of the 'ghost and god spiritual power'.

Therefore, most of the doctors who have left their names in history have a bit of ethereal legends of gods and ghosts.

And when Kong Ai was massaging Wang Xu just now, Wang Xu obviously felt the tiredness in his body, and noticed that he seemed to have deliberately pressed several acupuncture points that were easy to make people sleepy, such as Quchi, Yangchi, Hegu, Neiguan, etc.

Although Wang Xu is not a doctor, because of the nature of his work, he has to deal with health nurses all year round, so he naturally knows some fur.

And Kong Ai was also talking about some things he shouldn't say while massaging, which made Wang Xu immediately think of the workflow of a psychotherapist.

First, use music or massage to relax you, then use words to guide, and finally achieve the effect of psychological suggestion.

Knowing that Kong Ai might just want to do a small experiment on himself and had no intention of offending, Wang Xu did not pursue it.
