Chapter 133. 【Case 18】Hypnotherapy (plus more thank you for the crown of Ikeraku)

I asked Dr. Ann, what does this mean? Dr. Ann didn't speak, but reached into the inner bag of his clothes, pulled out a wallet, opened it and pointed it at me. I noticed that there was a photo in it, and the woman in the photo was indeed beautiful. So I said to Dr. Ann, so what you mean is that when you first meet, he'll be able to tell what's in your wallet, right? Dr. An nodded, and Hu Zongren said that this is really good, this is a special function.

I know that he is funny, ghosts can know the secrets of the Tao, much more than us, we often say that we should be worthy of heaven and earth, and often say that there is no leaky wall in the world, in fact, when you think what you do is secret, maybe there are a pair of eyes around you looking at you.

Dr. Ann said that I was quite surprised when the patient said that, because I had treated a lot of patients with paranoia, much more serious than that, and usually they were not in a hurry to prove how different they were at the outset, because that kind of proof was no different from revealing their identity to him. Dr. Ann said he became intrigued by the patient and started talking to him.

Dr. An said that because of the consultation on mental illness, as a doctor, everything about the patient needs to be kept confidential, and even the patient's family members are not allowed to sit in on the sidelines. On the way to the first understanding, the doctor asked the basic information of the patient to see if it was consistent with the previous family's explanation, but his wife told me that he was from Dadukou District, Chongqing, born in 1976, but from the patient's own mouth, he learned that he was from Meishan, Sichuan, born in 1955, his tone and tone of voice are very strange, although I have not been to Meishan, I don't know what the local accent of Ludao is, but I can clearly distinguish that his accent is not our local, And it's not a foreign accent that can be pretended.

Dr. Ann said, "So to find out more about what this patient is like this, I gave him a hypnosis treatment. After saying that, Dr. Ann stood up and went to his desk and brought the device that looked like a pendulum dangling, and then put it on the table and told us that when I tried to hypnotize him, he began to feel very uncooperative and impatient, and when I told him to stare at the pendulum, he stared at it for a while, and then he had a very resistant expression.

Hu Zongren said, of course you have to resist, otherwise if you let me sit here and stare at this thing all the time, I won't be able to stand it. Dr. Ann continued, but when he started to resist, he seemed very irritable, and this irritability was not directed at me, but at his own body, and he seemed to start talking to his own body, and when he was impatient, he would slap himself, which I didn't expect. Dr. Ann paused and said, but after the last minute I asked him for a glass of water and calmed him down a bit. Hu Zongren asked, what kind of water is so easy to use? Dr. An smiled and said that it is an ordinary sleep aid powder, which will help people calm down and become lazy, which is more in line with my conditions for hypnosis.

Dr. Ann went on to say that after he had calmed down, I asked him to look at the pendulum again, and then began to talk to his heart, which was actually some small talk, in a very gentle and comfortable tone, and soon he was hypnotized by me, and then he lay lazily on the sofa with a very enjoyable expression, and he answered whatever I asked. Dr. An said that hypnosis has always been very mysterious to the outside world, in fact, we are just using our voice and questioning skills to communicate directly with the patient's heart, because people often blurt out words without defense are the most real, I asked the patient, you are obviously a native of Chongqing, why do you want to say that you are from Meishan, Sichuan? And you don't look like you were born in the 50s, and at this time, he replied to me that he had just borrowed this man's body for a while, and it felt good and comfortable.

Dr. An told us that at this time he suddenly became a little alert, but he was still not sure whether the patient deliberately said this or the real situation, so in order not to cause the opposite effect, he continued to ask in this direction, asked some of the life experience of "him", and learned that this "he" lived in Meishan XX Road, he had a son, the son went to the army, his wife was a peddler, his parents were no longer there, and his brother had also settled in other places, so he was left alone. Dr. Ann asked him if the neighbors in your neighborhood had a good relationship with you, but he said that he couldn't remember which neighbors he had, but he knew that his house was near a narrow road, and there was a tall plane tree, through which he could see a stream at the other end.

Frankly speaking, Dr. An's words made me uncomfortable for some reason. It may be that I am quite unaccustomed to this kind of questioning, judging from what he said before, this patient is undoubtedly a ghost, and it is a bit disrespectful to peek into the ghost's life experience through hypnosis, which is a bit disrespectful, like a cliché, after all, it is in the case of hypnosis, and it is not necessarily voluntary. The second is to promote the kind of emotion that this ghost stays in the patient's body, so that it produces a kind of nostalgia, this nostalgia is not only for the patient's body, but as a dead ghost, for the nostalgia of this world, which in my opinion is absolutely undesirable, so I very politely interrupted Dr. An and said, what is the use of you asking him this, and how can you be sure that he is telling the truth, you must know that many ghosts in our opinion will have a certain amount of deception in order to achieve their goals.

Dr. Ann said that he did not know for sure at the time, and that the purpose of hypnosis was to find out where the patient's disease was at the root, because at that time he thought it was just an ordinary paranoia, not what we call a ghost. Dr. An said that he couldn't determine the truth of these words for a while, but he felt that there might be more falsehoods, but because the patient had just sat down and guessed the contents of his purse, he couldn't understand it, so he asked the patient, how did you know that there were 2,300 yuan in my purse, and how did you know that my wife's photo was also in it? The patient half-squinted his eyes and said with a half-smiling smile because I saw it. Dr. Ann asked him, "How did you see that?" The patient replied, "I saw you when you were changing your clothes inside." With that, he gestured to the door in the corner.

Dr. Ann also turned around, pointed to the door behind him, and said to us, that place is my small room where I usually rest when I am tired, and there is only a bed and a rack for hanging clothes. And when the patient said that he saw it, it dawned on me that I had been changing my clothes there just before he came in, and the implication seemed to be that he had seen my purse beside me while I was changing.

Dr. An said that my office door, because it stores a lot of patients' files, so it needs to be isolated from the outside world, my door lock you have probably noticed, it is an electronic lock, no password outsiders can not enter at all except blasting, and I am very sure that when I changed clothes, I was the only one in my room. Dr. Ann began to rub his hands together and said, "I asked the patient how you came into my room," and the patient smiled and said, "I can come in if I want, and I can enter your body if I want."

Dr. Ann continued to ask him, into my body, do you mean as if entering his body? Dr. Ann was referring to the patient, and he nodded, saying that he had walked too far and could no longer walk. Dr. Ann continued to say to him, "So how long are you going to stay in his body?" His answer was, forever. And to the point.

Dr. Ann told us that by that time, he had been completely sure that this person was the so-called possession, but he had no way to get rid of it. In order not to arouse the other party's vigilance, he still continued to ask questions very calmly, he said that you, the original owner of the body, said that he often sees people dressed in black, is that person you? He replied, "It's me, it's my only set of clothes, can't you see it?" Suddenly asked rhetorically, Dr. An said that he could not hesitate at the moment, otherwise he would immediately fall behind in this strange conversation, so he quickly replied, I can't see your clothes, can you describe your clothes to me? Dr. An said that he deliberately added a sentence of "okay" after this sentence in order to throw the problem to the other party, so that his mind would not have extra time to think or doubt, but when Dr. An asked this sentence, the patient said, I was wearing a white cloth inside, a black cloth robe outside, a white cloth belt around my waist, cloth shoes, and a black hat, but my hat was missing and I couldn't find it.

Shroud. Hu Zongren said suddenly. Most of the people's shrouds look like this, unless it is those big officials or people with a particularly high life, presumably the ghost that the man saw when he was sober was this man wearing a shroud. Dr. Ann nodded, it seemed that he had thought of this question long before we came, so he asked us, if a person is really ghosted, will he see a ghost?

Hu Zongren replied to him that it is not necessarily, because many people are rescued one day after their upper body or wake up by themselves, and they do not remember the events of this period at all. But a few people will still have some sporadic memories, and your so-called mentally ill people are actually quite a large group not because of their own diseases, but more because they are scared out of problems. For example, many people in our country are not essentially catching ghosts and fighting ghosts, but they are metaphysical people who deal with ghosts, such as the underworld marriage master in the north, when they are looking for the ghosts that both parties need, they actually can't see them. And their group of people is often surrounded by a stupid and somewhat mentally retarded or mentally ill person, in order to get their eyes, because their eyes happen to be able to see ghosts.

Hu Zongren's explanation probably happened to answer Dr. An's doubts, so he sighed and said, after I asked these questions that day, I felt a little scared and uncomfortable, so I woke him up from hypnosis, and he became the same cowering appearance as before. I told his wife to come back for treatment the next week, and when he was leaving with him, the patient suddenly turned to me with a very strange smile and said to me:

"Will you help me find a hat?"
