"I know a great psychic who believes that memory is one of the most important components of a person's own being. For this reason, he did not hesitate to divide himself into three parts to test this theory. Having lost his memory, he became quite eccentric, even by the standards of a psychic mancer. Muhati asked with interest. "What makes you want to wash away your memories?"

"You're a psychic mancer, you sue me. "The maiden sued sù Muhadi. "Aren't psykers good at mind-reading?"

"I can feel anger, confusion, and fear...... al-Muhadi sensed the other with psionic energy. "Fear is the killer of thoughts. ”

"Can't you go a little deeper?" the girl urged.

"That can cause irreversible damage, and many mind-reading methods are destructive. And I'm a psyker who is good at manipulating energy, and I'm relatively new to the aspect of mental self-molding. Muhadi confessed. "Why don't you just tell me about your problem?"

"You know who I am, right?"

Muhadi nodded. "Witch King bloodline. ”

Girl's jaw. She thought for a moment before she continued to speak, and when she spoke again, her voice was as smooth as her face. "I am the daughter of the Witch King, my mother gave birth to me at a very young age, and her position dictates that she has no time to raise children. Indeed, people tell me that this is usually the case in royal families. I was raised by a nanny - a court Templar - and, contrary to tradition, she taught me how to read. ”

"Neben was a simple ruler, and I lived in a palace when I was a child, but I never saw my father. There is a huge statue in the palace that depicts Nibennai as a young man, a handsome man trampling on the corpses of countless humanoid races. When I play with other people my age, I always think of him as my father. ”

The Shadow King Nibennai, Muhati thought about this name in his heart, what was the Witch King's private life like?

She didn't hate him, Muhadi felt, but a more complicated one. Niben was not clear about the means of governing his city-state, but on the battlefield, his slave soldiers could be seen to be quite loyal.

"I grew up within the walls of a palace, drank the purest water, and never worried about food. The girl said. "I studied all kinds of arts and martial arts, like a normal royal. I also studied history and law, logic and rhetoric from the large library of the royal palace. I never thought about what life was like out there. ”

"Then why did you escape?"

"Because I've heard that the witch king wants to marry me!" the maiden looked at Muhadi with a lunatic-looking look. "This has messed up everything in my life!"

"My nanny let me go privately, and then I wandered around and ended up infiltrating this mercenary group. "I had never imagined such a life before." The desert and the palace are like two worlds, aren't they?"

"I've never seen such a vast world before, furious, cruel, but with a wild charm. I feel like I used to live well, but now I feel like I never really lived before. ”

"Trust me, you've really lived in the past. Muhadi said, "You can't even imagine a truly painful life." That's the kind of life that makes you feel like you're not your own. You were born in the world of honey and salt, and how do you know the taste of fire and sand, blood and dust?"

"Do you want to pretend to know very well?" retorted the maiden, "are you of humble birth judging by the skin of your hands? Can a craftsman who rubs rope have such hands? Or a potter? A porter? There is no sign of your own labor except the calluses left by wielding a scimitar." ”

"And I, at least recently, have learned to fend for myself. She continued. "I can live even without the protection of blood. What about you, a psychic warlock, what are you without psionic powers?"

The Traveler, Muhadi Think, the Prophet, the Warrior, the Scholar and the Agent of the Primordial Sorcerer. "The protagonist of my own life. ”

"Men love to say that. She laughed at Muhadi. "You're just like the mercenaries I've seen. ”

Muhadi shrugged. "Now it's you begging me to tell me about my specific symptoms. ”

Raina made an apologetic gesture and said. "I've been reborn, but from time to time, I'm still haunted by hallucinations. ”

"What type of hallucination? Can you describe it? ”

"Sometimes, I see apparitions, apparitions of myself. No matter where I hid, no matter how far away I was from Nibennai, I could see it. "Everywhere I went, I checked my surroundings again and again, for fear of being caught by Nibennai's minions." Even in my own tent, I would check it many times, worried that someone would sneak in. ”

"But now the problem seems to be getting more and more serious, and I have appeared more and more frequently with existing figures, but when I look carefully, I can't find them. She was silent for a moment. "Is this the effect of magic? I felt the pressure of the past grow heavier and heavier, until I couldn't stand it anymore. I want you to erase my memories before I was fifteen, and I want to start over!"

Autoscopy, Muhadi concluded halfway through hearing it, and there was a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. One of the advantages of psychic abilities over mental surveys on Earth is that psionic abilities can directly observe a person's mental reactions, rather than relying solely on the other person's feedback. And when undergoing psychological investigations on earth, such as survey papers, a person involuntarily thinks about it and chooses the option that he thinks is more appropriate, thus hiding the truth.

Voyeurism is a type of cognitive impairment, and the specific expression is to observe a phantom of oneself. Judging by the theory of the psychic warlock, Muhadi felt that the other party's lesion was probably caused by the collapse of the personality mask.

He simply told the other party the name of the voyeurism and his own judgment, and of course, the girl asked for an explanation.

"Jung, the great psychic sorcerer of ancient times, once had a theory. Muhadi said as he recalled what he had learned from Lyra. Originally, he didn't want to waste too much time on this girl, but if he thought about it carefully, if he could treat a person, it would also be an experience, and it would also be conducive to the improvement of his spiritual power, so he endured it. "It's called the-persona. ”

Raina was confused and didn't understand what the word meant. "What's that? some kind of jurisprudence?"

"A personality mask is the side of a person that is publicly displayed in order to give a good impression in order to be recognized by society. It can also be referred to as the submissive archetype netformit-archetype. Once he started explaining, Mohamad now had more and more things to say, one link after another. A person who has no contact with the theory of the mind at all knows much less about his own heart than he knows about the world around him.

"It is the necessary existence of social intelligent life, and it is also the basis of social life and public life. Personality masks enable a person to live in harmony with people he doesn't like. Muhadi followed the script. "Everyone has a role that he is expected to play, and this includes his attitude, position, qualities, and even grooming, demeanor, and so on. If a person does not play the role he is expected to play, he cannot be accepted into a community. ”

"Is this harmful?" asked Raina, confused by the knowledge she had never been exposed to.

"It's both beneficial and harmful. Muhadi explained. "The good thing about the personality mask is that the generous material reward it receives can be used to lead a more comfortable and perhaps more natural personal life. You usually wear a mask to get recognition and reward, but in private you can live back on yourself. In fact, most people live twin lives like this: one governed by a personality mask, the other used to satisfy other spiritual needs. ”

But if a person is too enthusiastic and obsessed with the role he plays, if he identifies himself only with the role he plays, the other aspects of the personality will be excluded. ”

"A person who is governed by the mask of personality like this gradually alienates himself from his own nature and lives in a state of tension, because there is a sharp opposition and conflict between the mask of personality which he has excessively attained and the rest of his personality that he has not attained. Muhadi recalled what he had learned and explained it to Raina. "When a person identifies himself with a personality mask and considers himself to be a personality mask, this situation is called 'inflated'. I think the reason why you want to run away from the city of Nibenai is because of the difference between the mask identity you have set for yourself and reality, so you feel alienated from the group and experience feelings of loneliness and alienation. ”

"You're the one wearing the mask here!" Raina retorted, "I've never played anyone, I'm who I am, and I always have been." At the end of the sentence, even her own tone was a little uncertain.

Muhati touched his face and remembered that he was still wearing a crystal mask, and the other party had never even seen what he looked like.

"You don't understand. "The personality mask can be not only individual, but also collective. The laws and customs relating to individual behaviour are, in fact, the expression of the collective personality mask. You may have long accepted the mask that the collective imposed on you without even realizing it yourself. ”

"For example," said the Psychic Manilock. "The city of Nibenai has been at war in the desert for years with Tyre, Yurik, and other city-states. The Nibenai people have a pride of their own, a collective identity called 'their own people'. In any of Nibennai's hookahs, where everybody denounces the treachery of the Tyres and the cruelty of the Uriks, if you're in the middle of it, can you contradict them under this collective pressure? Or can you criticize something when your friends praise it? No, you can't, all you can do is go along with the crowd. ”

"From a psychic point of view, everyone thinks they are different, but the vast majority of people are actually bound by a collective personality mask. Ordinary people will always tend to be gregarious, so as not to become the enemy of the masses. "And the inhabitants of the city-state are more constrained than the Buraku-people." Because of the environment in which you live, the social division of labor is more detailed, and the socialization process is also higher. However, this kind of collectivized personality mask may cause consciousness to become rigid over time, instinctively rejecting different ideas and opinions, and eventually even become ignorant and backward. ”

"Because of the opportunity to escape from marriage, you seem to be cut from your old life, and you are violently thrown into a new, strange, and hostile environment. You have to learn to accept new values, new cultures. Muhati nodded his crystal mask forehead. "You may not realize it, but the old personality mask you've been unusually inflated for years has been shattered. You are not the person you used to pretend to be, and even your interests are hypocritical, but you have been pretending to be interested in the past. A new personality has been established, but the shadow of the past has never been far away. ”

"The emptiness caused by the shattering of the personality mask gives you obsessive-compulsive disorder and cognitive dysfunction, which is why you have self-peeping. Mohathir concluded.

"Is that what telemancers use to spy on people's minds?" Raina asked, an unrelated question.

"Jung's psychoanalytic theory of the great psychic mancer," Muhathir said lightly, "just one of many." Psychic warlocks aren't weirdos who only produce strange rays and energy balls. Our strength comes from the study of the mind, and once you know how the mind works, all that remains is a light ...... One push. The Psychic Mancer made a two-handed nudge motion.

"In my professional eyes, I can't ask you to remove all your memories, that will lead to zhì...... Well, very unpredictable consequences. You will lose your self-identity, and not only will it not be alleviated, but it may even deepen the symptoms that you are currently experiencing. Memory is not the same as thinking mode. Even if I wash away your memories, you will still be tormented by the difference between old patterns of thinking and new lives. ”

A psychic who is still harassed by an external spirit, a girl who has escaped from marriage, and a corpse that is gradually losing its temperature are huddled in a tent. Muhati suddenly felt that this scene was quite funny, and he suddenly said so much, probably because he had been alone for many days and had some confiding**, but there was a certain quality in the girl in front of him, which seemed to make him inclined to speak more.

"Then what should I do?" said the girl in an inaudible voice. "Sue me. I don't want to be haunted by the past anymore. ”

"The human heart is the most difficult to treat. Muhadi told the girl, "This is different from a healer treating the body, you will instinctively resist outside interference." However, if you open your heart voluntarily. I can, um, transform you from a mental construct to a whole new one. ”

"A whole new psychological structure?"

"New goals, new lives. The way you think about things will never be the same. ”

"Then do it. "It's like I've finally made up my mind," Raina said. "I want to be a person who has no burdens, can you do that?"

"It's a breeze. ”

"Good. The girl said, "But may you take off your mask?"

"Why?" Muhathir did not quite understand this.

"If I open my heart to you, I can't let you not even show your face. It's so unfair!"

"Whatever you want. The Psychic shrugged, reached out and touched the top edge of the mask, then pulled down the psionic gear.

Then the girl's expression became very exciting, first in disbelief, then in surprise, and finally in joy.

She jumped up and hugged Muhati and hugged him twice, if it weren't for the latter's detection that she had no ill will in her heart, she would have attacked.

"I thought you were dead!

"Why did you put on a mask to lie to me? Did you succeed? Have you forgotten me?" three questions came out one after another, and Muhadi was confused and could not answer even one of them.
