Chapter 44: Illusion is born from the heart
The wind is getting stronger, and the air is filled with the smell of rain.
After Qin Ming ran wildly for a while, he didn't stop out of breath until the ghost bus behind him had already disappeared.
There is no doubt that the police car that came to pick him up just now was also disguised by the ghost bus using illusions.
If it was someone else, maybe he had already been fooled this time, after all, it was hard to imagine that the same routine would be used sneakily one after another.
It's just that in Qin Ming's place, this kind of repetitive routine doesn't work.
Because he is a typical person, a person who grows wisely and allows himself to make mistakes, but never allows himself to make mistakes in the same thing in a row.
So when the "policeman" in the car asked him to get in the car, he deliberately used his brain to quietly call the policeman who contacted him before.
So when the phone was successfully connected, and the voice of the policeman followed, the sneaky scam had been debunked by him.
But for more security reasons, he then made a second attempt.
That is to pretend that he is unwell and that he is so serious that he cannot walk, and see if the "policeman" in the car will come down.
The result was obvious, the imposter just pretended to be very worried and eager, and kept beckoning him to get in the car, without any intention of coming down to see him.
So he was even more sure that this time it was also a sneaky deception.
Although it seems that the sneaky deception did not succeed, in fact it is equivalent to destroying his psychological defenses.
After all, the sneaky can appear in such an illusion, hide himself in falsehood, and lure him into being fooled. So what else is there that he can't disguise?
Will it be disguised as his family next?
Will the bus be disguised as his family's house?
He thought he was back home, but in fact he was back in the ghost car.
It's not that he likes to scare himself and think about it in his head, but this possibility cannot be ruled out.
It is said that if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, and Qin Ming is panicking here now.
Because I don't know, and I can't guess, what the sneaky will do to him next.
It can be said that if he does this a few more times, maybe he doesn't have to wait for the sneaky to do it, and he is afraid that he will collapse first.
Of course, the purpose of sneaky doing this is to make him collapse.
In order to fill his heart with pessimism, despair.
Although things are on the surface, just like the truth in this world, even if you know it, you may not want to do it, let alone do it.
Although Qin Ming said that his psychological quality was good and his mind was quite flexible, in the final analysis, he was just a student who had just graduated from high school.
It is still far from the realm of not panicking and not messing up.
But fate is such a thing, it is never you who choose it, but it chooses you.
When it is eyeing you, when it wants to test you, it will not be soft on you because you are young, because you are not deeply involved in the world, because you are fragile.
Qin Ming took out a bottle of recovery potion from his backpack, and then raised his head and drank it.
With the entry of the recovery potion, Qin Ming suddenly felt that his chaotic thoughts before had become a little clearer.
Sneakily staring at him, the very fact itself did not frighten him.
Because he had foreseen it long before he came back, it could be said to be expected.
And what really frightened him, and turned him into this restless, frightened bird, was the ghostly ability that plunged him into illusions.
Illusions, simply put, are illusions, and to put it more bluntly, they are like being dazzled.
I think I see the truth, but in fact it is not at all.
So if you want to break the illusion, the first thing you have to do is to doubt yourself and question yourself.
But as far as human beings are concerned, self-denial, self-doubt, is undoubtedly the hardest.
Because there are very dangerous consequences of self-denial, one of the biggest consequences is that it is easy to get lost.
It's like if you do something, maybe you do it right, it's good, but when you hear a few malicious criticisms, you start to doubt yourself, you suspect that what you're doing is wrong, you doubt your ability, until you devalue yourself to nothing.
That's why self-confidence is so important for people.
So the sneaky vision, which seems to be deceiving his eyes, is actually testing his heart.
Thinking of this, Qin Ming's eyes suddenly lit up, and he faintly seemed to have a feeling of grasping the key.
This can't help but make him start to reminisce about what he has experienced since he strayed into the ghost bus.
Soon, he discovered a problem.
That is, the things he tried to avoid in his heart all came true in the end.
For example, when he just took the airport bus back to the city, he was worried that if he went to take the night bus, something might happen again, so he thought about taking a taxi to avoid this possibility.
As a result, the taxi he thought he was taking was actually the ghost bus.
And after he escaped from the ghost bus, he thought of stopping the car on the highway to go home, and also thought of whether to speed up his dad and ask him to find a car in the town to pick him up.
But after thinking about it, he still felt that it was safer to find the police to pick him up.
But in the end, it was the ghost bus that came to pick him up.
When he saw through the illusion and watched the ghost bus go away, he felt in his heart that this time it should be fine. The police car will soon be there to pick him up, and he will finally be able to get back into town.
As a result, what awaited him was a deception from the sneak.
"What you think is safe becomes dangerous, and what you think is dangerous will not happen......"
Qin Ming felt that the illusion created by the sneaky was probably based on the "safe zone" in his heart.
The accurate description should be his perception of safety.
Because only what he thinks is safe, he will do it with confidence, and will minimize his vigilance, and for sneaky, it is an opportunity that can cause him to panic.
It's like watching horror, and watching a horror movie.
When most people watch it, they will always subconsciously guard against the horror plot that may appear, and when this kind of horror plot really appears as they expected, the horror generated by this will be greatly reduced.
On the other hand, when the plot is completely unexpected, and there is no defense in the heart, there will be a huge sense of horror.
The more Qin Ming thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and the reason why he felt that the illusion was terrifying was because of this.
"Sneaky doesn't know what I'm thinking, only I know."
