Chapter 150: The Ancient One's Admonition

"What if I told you that your body can convince itself to do all forms of recovery?" Ancient One said. Then Strange asked excitedly, "Are you talking about cell regeneration?" This is very cutting-edge science and technology, which is why you went to such a remote place to study? So that you can evade the supervision of the medical bureau? So you've found a way to get nerve cells to repair themselves again? ”

Strange has been shaking his hands since he was in a car accident and couldn't use them properly, which made him unable to perform his work as a doctor, he couldn't hold the scalpel steady, he couldn't perform the operation, although he thought he could cure himself, but after seven surgeries, his hand still didn't heal, and finally he learned the name Maya Taj from his mouth when he saw a patient who was previously paralyzed and was now able to play basketball well. After coming here, just when he was able to get the answer he wanted from the Ancient One, the answer that the Ancient One gave him was not what he thought. "I don't regenerate cells, I just know how to heal the body better with the soul." This is not the answer that Strange wants, and as an absolute atheist, Strange would never believe in the existence of spirits and ghosts. When he got such an answer, he was a little devastated, "I broke my money and bought a one-way ticket to get here, and now you actually tell me that you want to rely on faith to heal." ”

Looking at Strange, who was a little broken, Gu Guyi didn't have much mood swings, but continued: "You are a person who sees the world from a hole, and you have spent your life trying to make this hole a little bigger so that you can see more. But now that you know how to make the hole so big that you can't imagine it, you reject the possibility. ”

"Yes, I refuse because I don't believe in myths, I don't believe in souls or beliefs, because there are no souls. Human beings are matter, nothing more, and you are just an insignificant speck of dust in this universe, nothing more. Listening to Strange's extremely arrogant and reckless words, the Ancient One directly let him see the soul, and the Ancient One directly slapped Strange's soul out of his body with one palm. After Strange's soul returned to his body, Strange asked in surprise, "What did you do to me?" I just pushed your soul out. Strange didn't believe her and said, "What did you put in the tea?" Ecstasy? Gu Yi said, "It's just tea." Standing in the corner of the room, Kerr looked at a panicked Strange and knew he must have been frightened.

But this is not over, and then the ancient one takes him to see a new world, a world that subverts his worldview. Strange, who had returned to reality, raised his trembling hands and said longingly towards the ancient one, "Please teach me." But the ancient one said, "No! Then he was pushed out of Maya Taj, and now Strange was completely convinced that the world was more than just material, and he regretted what he had just said, and now he finally believed what the Ancient One said, and believed that the Ancient One must have a way to save him.

Five hours after the Ancient One pushed Strange out, and Strange was still outside the door, and it was Kerr who approached the Ancient One and said, "Isn't it too cruel for him to do this?" He's just an ordinary person. "He is not an ordinary person, he has a high talent, but at the same time he is arrogant, stubborn and ambitious. Kerr said: "Does this make you feel familiar? He reminds you of Casillas. "From the words of the ancient one, I always know that Casillas is such a person.

"I don't want a gifted student to be swallowed up by darkness." Ancient One said. When Strange looked at the door open, looking at Kerr in the magician's clothes, he thought he was wrong, and after confirming that the real nine was the Kerr he knew, Strange said: "I didn't expect you to be here, even you are here, so what the Ancient One said is true." ”

Kerr patted Strange on the shoulder and said, "Welcome here." Here you will find a whole new world. After Kerr had settled a place for Strange to live, Kerr handed Strange a note, and Strange looked at the letters on the note and said, "What's on it, the spell?" Kerr said with a smile. This is the wifi password. It's not primitive people here. In the following years, Strange began to study with Kerr. ”

Strange learns very quickly in theory, even faster than Kerr. After all, Strange has the ability to never forget, but he is very good at the actual operation of magic, Kerr learned to use the suspension ring in a few hours, but Strange didn't learn it for three days, this is the ancient one came to the training ground, seeing that Strange still can't use the suspension ring, and he can't even open a small spark, the ancient one has some doubts about his judgment.

Strange looked at the Ancient One and said, "It's because of my hand." The ancient one said, "It has nothing to do with your hands. "How can this have nothing to do with my hands." Strange still felt that it was his hands that kept shaking that caused this result. However, the Ancient One will directly come to a man who has lost his hand to demonstrate to Strange that this person has opened a portal without using the Hanging Ring. This made Strange directly speechless.

The conversation just now also let the Ancient One know that the reason why Strange has not made any progress in magic operations is because he still has this obstacle in his heart, and he can't make progress if he can't break through his inner demon. The Ancient One felt that he had a little hatred for Strange.

Ancient One opened a portal and walked in with Strange, and they came to the top of Mount Everest, "This is the top of Mount Everest, with the temperature here it will only take five minutes at most, and you will die, if you don't want to die, you can find a way to come back directly." As soon as the ancients finished speaking, they turned on the teleportation without giving Strange time to react and didn't leave, leaving Strange alone on Mount Everest, and Strange in the cold wind could only use the suspension ring to keep drawing circles against the space in order to survive.

Standing on the training ground, Kerr counted the time, and once it was five minutes long, Kerr would save Strange. "Only in this way can we break through his inner demons." The Ancient One said to Kerr. At five minutes, Kerr said to the Ancient One, "I'll go and bring him back." Just as Kerr was preparing to act, a glittering golden portal opened, and Strange opened it on his own.

After this time, Strange began to improve by leaps and bounds, both in theory and in practice, and there were no obstacles.

On this day, Strange came to the library to borrow books, and now he reads a lot of books every day, and when the librarian is looking for a book, Strange curiously picks up the most dangerous book, the Book of Carriostelo. That's when a voice came out, "If I were you, I wouldn't read this book." Strange was startled by the voice, and Strange looked back to see that it was Kerr.

"Why?" Strange asked, "This book is a study of time, and it won't do you any good to read it, and there's another thing that if you have to read it, remember to read it all in one sitting." Strange was a little baffled by Kerr's words.

"This is the Book of Cagliostro, a book for the study of time, the private collection of the Ancient One, a book that no one can read.
