Chapter 58: Persuasion and Illusion

In the cave, beside the campfire, the girl continued: "Mona Spirit Lord is proficient in illusion. That village has indeed been destroyed, and the village you see must have been magical. ”

"Illusion?"

"Illusion, enchantment, and sealing are the three most common virtual arts, as opposed to swordsmanship, boxing and other practical arts. Although I am hearsay, I know a little about the arts. ”

"I'll tell you a story, and you might understand a little bit. In a family of scholars, there is a little boy who is greedy for fun, and only likes to play chess and read comics. In order to allow their children to learn, parents began to think of ways. First of all, of course, persuasion is divided into two kinds, the first is persuasion to learn, and the second is persuasion not to play. ”

"Persuasion is very simple, parents will paint a picture of what will appear in the future after studying hard, promote and make a fortune, benefit the community and so on. In this way, when the child learns, he will think of this picture and be motivated. This is the most primitive illusion, creating illusions and making people do something. ”

In the same way, if you don't want to play, parents will paint a picture of your child that if you are greedy for play, you will do nothing in the future, be oppressed by others, and so on. In this way, when the child wants to play, he will remember this picture and dare not play. This is the most primitive form of enchantment, creating obstacles to prevent people from doing something. ”

Of course, if the child is strong enough to be unmoved, neither yearning for that good life, nor afraid of a miserable life, then the persuasion will be ineffective. ”

After the persuasion, the parents will, of course, seal up the children's toys, chess and comics. Maybe it's simpler to burn it out, but sometimes, something has to be sealed up and saved for later. How to seal it, a very simple way is to hide it, if the child can't find it. But what if the child finds it? So, it's better to put the chess and comics in a box, then lock the box, and finally put a piece of paper and write that this is a valuable item in the house and cannot be opened without parental consent. In this way, even if the child finds the box, he will not be able to open the box properly without the key. However, the child can still choose to destroy the box directly and remove the contents inside. However, since the authority of the parents is greater than that of the child, the child will definitely not dare to break the box by force. Therefore, the key to sealing is not to hide and lock, let alone the box containing things, but the most important thing is that the child is afraid of the authority of his parents. And this is the most primitive sealing technique. ”

"The story isn't over yet. When the child grows up, he will have a successful career. There are three more endings. In the first, the parents find the box, open it with the key, and return the shogi and manga to the child. Second, the child finds the box by himself, finds the key, and opens the box. Thirdly, the child finds the box and splits it with an axe. This is the unsealing. ”

"Although this story is simple, it tells the origin and some key points of these three types of illusions, and as for the real illusions, enchantments and sealing techniques, they are very different from the ones told in the story. ”

"Illusion is an art of controlling the senses of others and making people hallucinate. A little more advanced illusion, of course, can control the senses of others at will. As for illusions of the level of the Mona Spirit Lord, I don't know. ”

"The art of enchantment is the art of controlling the minds of others, making it difficult or impossible for people to do something. The Enchantment Master uses all the elements to create an invisible wall of separation that prevents someone from doing something, such as creating an enchantment that traps people in between. ”

"The so-called art of sealing is an art of suppression. There are three key points, hidden, locked, and pressed. There is nowhere to hide in many cases, and the lock is only a delaying measure, and only pressure is the core of the seal. The caster must be stronger than others in some way to achieve the effect of suppression. For example, if the intermediate qi in someone's body is sealed, once he wants luck, there will be a stronger qi coming out to suppress it. Or someone's memory is sealed, it must be an insurmountable memory on the soul so that the original memory cannot be released. ”

"Seals and enchantments have similar purposes, so they are often used on someone at the same time. Illusions and enchantments are similar, so those who know how to illusion must also know some of them. ”

Na Wu remembered his amnesia, whether he was also sealed. After being injured by the blade, Nano had a terrible dream, and this dream was not that insurmountable memory.

"Perhaps, if you are slashed a few more times, maybe your memories will come back. In the body, the sea-like qi that Yazi said, the reason why I can't feel it, is it also sealed?"

"Zi Yuan recalled that the Ye family's swordsmanship seems to be somewhat similar to his own moves, could it be that my real identity is a member of the Ye family? Nameless and Wuyue are both from the hands of Beiyun, and Beiyun is casting the sword in the Sword Immortal Mountain. The Ye family has lived under the Sword Forging Immortal Mountain for generations. However, Ye Xuan had already killed the whole family and disappeared. Could it be that I am Ye Xuan? But I can't be the same age as Ye Xuan. Speaking of which, I don't know how old I am now. However, if I were Ye Xuan, it would be impossible for Ziyuan not to know me. Looks like I'm thinking too much. ”

There are no answers to these names for the time being.

"Why are you here?" asked the girl.

The two told them about finding someone, but the girl was not impressed.

"It seems that we will have to go back and ask the old man in the village, and see what is going on there. ”

It was late at night, and the three of them soon fell asleep.

Under the light moon, a soft light lit up from the depths of the lonely forest in the pool, and a human-tall spirit monkey gently landed on the surface of the lake from the tree, and the white ripples spread into the distance.

There seemed to be a faint smile on the face of the spirit monkey, but it seemed that there was no one, and it seemed that it would always be the same expression.

The swimming fish in the lake, the flying insects in the air, the animals in the trees, and the spirit monkeys all gathered together.

At this time, the hair on the spirit monkey's body began to float upward, and a transparent liquid emitting a seven-colored halo gushed out from the surface of the body.

This seven-colored liquid continued to emerge from the spirit monkey's body, spreading out in all directions, and soon it actually covered the entire Sword Casting Immortal Mountain, looking like it was coated with a layer of colorful film.

In the water, the small fish quickly grows larger, and the body gradually grows beautiful patterns. On the shore, the green grass blooms from it one by one. In the trees, the wings of the milk bird quickly grow, and then leave the nest and fly happily in the air. The lame fawn, suddenly recovered, and jumped again in the woods. Even the dying dead wood sprouts new leaves.

All the places moistened by this liquid are full of life.

Nano, who was asleep, only felt an incomparably warm current infiltrate his whole body, and all his tiredness was eliminated in an instant. He had never felt so full and energized physically.

At this moment, his body turned out to be ten years younger, and his skin became delicate and full, round and shiny. However, after this warm current, it quickly receded, and it did not completely change back to its original state, and it seemed to be a little younger than before, about a year old.

Nano opened his eyes slightly, walked out of the cave, and in the distance, saw a spirit monkey standing on the water with a faint halo all over his body, slowly walking towards the depths of the dense forest, and gradually disappeared from view.

"That's the god of Xiqi. The girl walked out of the cave and came to Nano's side.

"Somehow, I suddenly felt full of energy, and I didn't feel sleepy at all. Ziyuan also walked out.

"What are the gods in this world?" sighed.

In the past, Nano had always felt that the gods were not much different from other living beings, but after feeling the nourishment of the gods in person just now, he was also confused.

"Desireless, desireless, unintentional, just living, and being alive will bring endless blessings to other beings around you. This is the gods! This is the ultimate form of life growth. The girl explained.

"After enlightenment, isn't the next stage the gods?"

"There is a difference between enlightenment and godhood, there are thousands of living beings in the world, there are countless enlightened people, but there is no one who has become a god for a hundred years. ”

"It is said that there has not been a single enlightened person in mankind for 2,000 years. ”

"It can only be said that your human way of life is too far from the Tao. ”

"Really?" Nan Wu sighed softly, a little suspicious in his heart.
