When I got the Xuanqi Pearl, I also returned to Taoist Bay.

Everything is like a story, although it is a tragedy, but after all, it is over, I seem to have seen through the good and evil in the world, and I have no intention of coping with it, ready to return to Song Wan and be Song Hao.

In the future, I chose the same life as most of my peers: I went to the south to work, then got married and had children, and one day, I returned to the countryside.

Just let everything here be a dream, so let's get together and disperse.

As I packed my bags and was about to leave Daoist Bay, I looked back again and saw the river below the rice field again.

River of Life!

But it's moving from west to east.

Ever since my master taught me the secrets of dreams, he warned me that after using this dream for a long time, the biggest drawback is that I can't tell whether it is reality or dream.

Therefore, when Master Zu designed the dream of Taoist Bay, he deliberately designed the river of life that flows from east to west in reality as a seemingly reasonable flow from west to east. Since then, I have been implanting in my mind the illusion that the river flows from west to east. In this way, even if I use illusions, or fall for someone else's illusion, I will be able to use this river to distinguish between reality and dreams, and others will not know that this river flows against nature because they have not been to Daoist Bay.

And the current direction in front of me proves that I am in an illusion.

When exactly did I fall for illusion? Was it when the mountain god illusion did it to me, or when I pierced through the clouds?

I felt a fluster.

When we first entered the cave, we were attacked by those vines and fell into illusions, and now I have fallen into illusions, which is not unusual at all, but I don't know the key to illusions, so I can't break them.

Just now I heard the voice of the mountain god in my head, I don't know if it's an illusion or a reality?

A sense of foreboding swelled up again in my heart, for I thought of something even more terrible: the mountain god could read my thoughts.

As soon as I thought of this, I heard a burst of laughter in my mind, it was the mountain god.

In the illusion, I was still standing by the rice field in Taoist Bay, and the laughter seemed to surround me, and I couldn't feel the source, but it was everywhere.

The voice of the mountain god said: "You are still smart, since you have seen through it, it is a pity that I have not been to your Taoist Bay, and naturally I don't know that this river is a flaw." ”

I tried to calm myself down and asked, "What is the purpose of you trapping me?" ”

"What is the purpose? Of course you do. ”

I thought of it in an instant: reopen the gates of hell and release the mountain gods.

Just now, my heart was in a hurry, my mind slowed down, and my head became stupid.

The mountain god's voice continued: "It's not that you've become stupid, it's that I've made you stop thinking about it. ”

I didn't understand, but the mountain god was able to read my mind and said with a smile: "It is said that human beings are smart, but human beings are good at thinking, and thinking takes a lot of mental and physical strength, so some people like to think and become smart, while some people are not willing to think, and they will become more and more stupid." In fact, human beings are born, and the difference in intelligence is not too big, but at a certain moment, some people fall in love with thinking and become smart people, while some people only like to be fed by others, and naturally degenerate and become stupid. So the easiest way to abolish a person is to make that person not like to think. ”

I snorted coldly, thinking to myself a set of crooked reasoning, you are not a mountain god, and you are not a human being, how can you know about human affairs.

The mountain god laughed again and said, "This is not my crooked reasoning, but the crooked reasoning of your ancestor. ”

My grandfather? Ma Sanhao?

The mountain god responded and said with a smile: "Ma Sanhao is in accordance with this crooked theory, he knows the method of giving up, as long as the ability to think is turned off, people will naturally be closed, and their consciousness will soon disappear, and they will become fools who only have human instincts, even if they open the ability to think again, they will only be a child's IQ, and everything must be learned from scratch." ”

It turns out that this is the so-called method of giving up, which makes people stop thinking and lose consciousness.

I didn't expect the mountain god to tell me so much information so easily.

But I didn't have time to be happy, and there was a lot of worry in my heart, but when I thought about it, I couldn't find out what I was wondering.

The mountain god is using the method of sacrifice on me.

Now, I can't even think about the most basic thoughts, I just want to get out as soon as possible, but the stronger this thought, the more panicked and overwhelmed people become.

Because I don't know when I'm going to turn off my thinking completely, and I'll be a fool in illusion.

"Don't worry so much, the greatest sorrow of man is not to be gained. What is lost can no longer be gained, and what is longed for cannot be gained. But in illusion, you can be satisfied. ”

As soon as I finished speaking, I heard someone behind me shouting my name.

A familiar sound.

I turned my head and saw Zhao Xiaoxue standing behind me in the skirt and robe she had entered the cave with me, carrying a lantern and holding a gray mouse, smiling at me.

I obviously know that this is an illusion, and Zhao Xiaoxue is just illusory.

But I still couldn't help it, choked back tears, smiled at her, opened my arms, and Zhao Xiaoxue also walked over meekly and hugged me.

Everything was so real that I slowly forgot about illusion.

Suddenly, I saw the sound of coughing in the house of Taoist Bay, and then the master came out, looked at us, smiled and shook his head, and then took the medicinal herbs and put them on the edge of the rice field to dry.

The sun is bright, not dazzling, and warm.

I looked under the rice field, and found that there was a figure there, looking for something by the river, and when I looked closely, the man turned out to be Brother Daring, and after a while, he grabbed a white snake and waved at me, his face full of happiness.

"It's very happy, there is no sadness here, only happiness, if you want, you can call it a character who everyone admires here, a person who does whatever you want, as long as you want, you can achieve it."

The mountain god further tempted me and said, "More importantly, there is no time here, you can live here forever." ”

I know that time in illusion is not the same as reality, and time can be extended.

Could it be that the so-called eternity of Suzaku is in the illusion that represents the mountain god?

I still have my own voice in my heart, and I know that I want to get out of here, that this is just an illusion of nothingness.

However, I am reluctant to hold Zhao Xiaoxue, reluctant to resurrect the master, and reluctant to give up everything here.

When I went to the provincial capital, I heard a saying in an Internet café that our reality may be an illusory world, and we are just living an illusory life, and we may suddenly wake up one day and find that we are just dreaming, or just playing a game, or even just reading a book.

Those decadent people in the Internet café told me that since I can't tell the difference between reality and illusion, it is better to get by, live happily, and don't think too much.

Thinking of this, I once again understood that this was just the mountain god using the method of seizing against me, and the terrible thing was that I actually accepted it a little and didn't want to resist at all.

I hugged Zhao Xiaoxue, immersed in this gentleness, I could smell Zhao Xiaoxue's fragrance, which made me feel that this was the reality, and I was even more reluctant to leave.

I'm just a little Taoist, what can I do when I go out, can I really change the world? Let's see too much.

I'm just an ordinary person, and I'm still an ordinary person in a predicament.

Instead of living painfully in reality, it is better to be happy here.

And it's eternal.

I took Zhao Xiaoxue by the hand, in this illusion, she has already become a living person, and she is no longer afraid of the sun, I want to take her back to Song Bay, really get married once, and become husband and wife.

I took her by the hand and left Daoist Bay, and as I was leaving, I turned around and found that the direction of the river had changed from west to east, and the mountain god had repaired everything.

Even if I knew that this was an illusion, even if I left here, I couldn't know if I would return to the real world again, and the final distinguishing sign, I had revealed to the mountain god.

I can only stay here, forever.

I began to slowly stop thinking about it, but Zhao Xiaoxue walked in front and took me to Songwan.

She was still so happy, running and jumping and carefree.

At this moment, I seem to have become the happiest person in the world, and if it is true, the biggest worry in the world is that I cannot get it, and after I get it, I am satisfied.

Zhao Xiaoxue in front of her, humming a nursery rhyme casually, first the little mouse, went to the lampstand, stole sesame oil, and couldn't get down.

At first, I was a little sad, and I ended up becoming a mouse on the lampstand of the mountain god, but I was quickly relieved.

I happily followed.

Suddenly, Zhao Xiaoxue hummed the sentence again: Decline! Micro! Hu no return?

My heart trembled!
