Chapter 80: The Loop
The one-eyed dragon is a master, Rao is Zheng Jiuwu has already found out but it is too late, the dagger snatched into Wang Ling's neck before he stabbed it hard, and when he let go of his hand, only one handle was still idle. And Wang Ling's eyes widened and he couldn't believe this scene, he would really kill himself like that!
"Fourth brother!" The old skin roared angrily and was about to go up and fight hard, but before the person reached the one-eyed dragon, the latter gently flashed back and sat on a table to make a leisurely appearance, which made the old skin more and more anxious.
"Hey, stop, stop the kids." He said, "Look back carefully, it's not too late to come to me for revenge if your brother is really dead." ”
As soon as he turned around, he was shocked to find that Zheng Jiuwu was slowly pulling the dagger out of Wang Ling's neck, and he couldn't see any blood in the whole process. It wasn't until the dagger was completely drawn out that people discovered that Wang Ling was actually the same as the one-eyed dragon, and the scar was intact......
This result is naturally what people want to see, and no one wants anything to happen to him, and the same result is also something that no one wants to see, because in a sense, it means that the one-eyed dragon's statement is true, and they have also entered that state of immortality. When Wang Ling clearly felt the cold blade cutting through his skin, the savage cutting did not make him feel the slightest pain, he thought he was going to die, but now he was still alive......
"How can you be ...... like this" is different from Zheng Jiuwu, Wang Ling's wound can't see the slightest trace, but just now it was clear that Zheng Jiuwu had indeed cut his finger, but why did he ...... at this moment
"Take your time, enjoy the feeling of immortality," the one-eyed dragon let out a burst of laughter and began to walk up the stairs on his own, at that moment his eyes were full of disdain, people, after all, will be afraid of death!
Then there is Lao Pi, Li Xin is worried that something will happen to him, since the one-eyed dragon left, he has been pinching the dagger in a daze, for Lao Pi, he has a natural curiosity about this attempt.
"No need," Wang Ling waved his hand and said, "Even a person as light as Lao Zheng couldn't let go after all, let alone us?" As long as people live, they will have desires, and if they have desires, they will continue to dream, and dare to ask everyone who can pat their chests to ensure that they can truly achieve no desires and no desires. ”
"Therefore, Jia Baoyu in "Dream of the Back Building" finally became a monk in the end, and only those who really explore can get out of that too illusory realm." Li Xin said: "We are still too young, after all, there are too many unfinished things to complete, where can we easily go out." But I'm curious, why did Lao Zheng really bleed before? ”
"Because it's ...... here," Zheng Jiuwu pointed to his chest and said, "At first, my heart was indeed very empty, so I felt pain, but then I suddenly realized that I didn't want to die, and when I saw his sudden knife piercing Wang Ling's neck, I had a trace of fear, just the slightest change, I was enough to fall into this bottomless abyss." ”
"I can't die! I can't live if I want to! Lao Pi suddenly collapsed to the ground and said: "We are not monks who have seen through the red dust, which one can achieve such a four-dimensional emptiness?" ”
"The problem is probably not that complicated," Wang Ling said: "Whether it is broken or not is at one point, Lao Zheng almost succeeded, but he was deliberately interfered with by the one-eyed dragon." Li Xin just mentioned "Dream of Red Mansions", which reminds me of the Taoist at the foot of the slope, I want to use the Tao to do the most basic understanding, in fact, everyone has a side that can't let go, if we look at this thing with the simplest eyes, sort out its original essence, and let everything return to its original appearance. As the saying goes, the road is simple, but it is easier said than done. ”
He continued: "The essence is actually the simplest, but the source of the essence is the most complex. For example, the somewhat inexplicable space we live in today is actually a dream in nature. But where did this dream come from, and why did it bring us all in, that's the crux of the matter, and I think the Fallen Gold Coin is the root.
Theoretically, it is almost impossible for five people to enter a dream at the same time, and each person's dream is relatively independent because our personalities are independent of each other. But there is one thing that has appeared, linking the independent personalities of the five people, and if you think about it, only this gold coin has such an ability, and it is said that it can make even the strongest monarchs lost, let alone us. I think it has unconsciously taken control of our minds, and perhaps there are other more powerful forces behind it. ”
"It's a key!" Li Xin had a sudden awakening, she took a deep breath and said: "That lock needs five keys to open at the same time, the inside of the door is the world, and the outside of the door is the real world." Since we have the key, we should be able to enter and exit, there must be something wrong with one of the links, where is the problem! ”
"Why is it the key?" Zheng Jiuwu asked, "What is the basis for your judgment, and where is that door?" ”
"The door is in my heart," Li Xin said: "If you don't die in this kind of place, you must have an attitude and put it to death and live later!" If the wound is the result of a dream, can I think that this knife is also a dream illusion, if we want to wake up from a dream, usually we just need to wake up the person who is pretending to be asleep, but what if we can't wake up? The only way is to put an end to this dream! ”
Wang Ling had vaguely guessed the answer, but he still hoped to hear another answer, because it was too cruel.
"How do I terminate it?"
"Death!" Li Xin pointed to the pirate picture on the wall behind him and said: "The person who died behind, he did it, only the dead don't dream, the five of us are in the same dream, if one person's dream stops, will the dreams of the other four people be affected." Theoretically, if a key is missing, the dream is incomplete, because it would be a paradox: if the dream exists, no one will die, and life and death can be controlled at will; But if once the irreversibility of death occurs, it means that the control of life and death has been broken, which is a manifestation of the laws of nature, then it is natural to wake up from this dream, and everything will return to the simplest state. ”
"But the difficulty lies in death!" Lao Pi said: "You have also seen it, this place can't even be pierced by a knife, you tell me, otherwise there is a puddle of water in that small pool, I will try to drown?" Or find a rope to hang yourself? ”
"No, I understand," Wang Ling nodded and said: "She didn't mean that, this death is not the kind of death you think, here our physical bodies are fearless, but have you found that our brains can still think, we can still communicate, our thinking is not fixed, this is the most terrible, but also the luckiest."
If a person's body is imprisoned in the same place for a long time, but he still has a flexible brain, watching himself repeat yesterday's story day after day every day, and after a long time, loneliness and loneliness will incarnate into another self, until it evolves into countless selves, at this time the personality is no longer independent, and everything means that he can no longer go out.
Fortunately, we have judged that thinking is the existence that can reverse time, and the only thing that Li Xin said can surpass light with human power alone is thinking. And I think it's this kind of thinking that lays a trap here, because desire comes from thinking, from our perception of things, and those past experiences and expectations for the future will make desire always follow us, and desire makes us build a city for ourselves, as long as we don't stop thinking, we don't stop wanting to go, we will never be able to get out. And if this power is not tamed, then the Fallen Gold Coin will not agree to be born, because once it is born, it will be an endless scourge.
Now that I understand what the one-eyed dragon said, why didn't he take it? ”
"Then how do we stop thinking and sleep?" The poet said, "But when you sleep, you also dream, and the brain at that time is not controlled by willpower, and no one can stop thinking, unless it is a dead person." But here, in order to become a dead person, you must first stop thinking, which is another paradox, and you can't do it anyway......"
This cycle of death finally appeared, and the one-eyed dragon nodded slowly in the distance and said to himself: "They are indeed much stronger than me back then, I really want to see if there is anyone in this world who can solve it, at least I can't do it......"
