Nausicaa's instincts were accurate. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Ingres recalls that not long ago, he had agreed to be a neighbor of Syrum, but in less than a day, he had changed his mind. Angel himself felt a little embarrassed, and his face showed a slight embarrassment.

Seeing Angel's expression, how could Nausicaa not understand.

"Looks like I'm not mistaken, you're really ready to move out, right? It's not called moving out, after all, you haven't moved in yet. ”

Nausicaa guessed about the move, and although Ingres was a little embarrassed, he didn't actually plan to hide it, and he couldn't hide it.

So he told him about renting a house in Apprentice Town, but the origin of the magic crystal was a little difficult to explain, so he simply pulled up the tiger skin banner of Sanders. Besides, the contribution points were indeed given by Sanders, although they were exchanged for a fee.

"I've heard Miss Abrey say that many second-level apprentices are reluctant to spend money to live in Apprentice Town!" Serum showed an envious expression, "It's good to have a good mentor. ”

"It's good to go to the apprentice's town. Nausicaa picked up the broken chain on the ground, "It's too unsafe to live in a place like this, you have a gap with Hukdick, and if he sneaks in at night, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Serum also nodded in agreement: "That's right, Miss Nausicaa is right, I didn't react at first, now that I think about it, a sharp weapon can cut the chain, which is too unsafe to protect." We are surrounded by not ordinary people of good nature, but transcendents and people who are about to step through the doors of the transcendental, and they must have many means to break in. If you are interrupted while you are practicing, it is also a very unpleasant thing. Moreover, Toby is a bird, so he should not be suitable for living underground without light. ”

"You're one step ahead of us. Nausicaa patted Angel on the shoulder: "When I earn enough magic crystals, I will move out of here as soon as possible." ”

"Me too!" said with a smile from Sarum, "We'll be neighbors then!"

The understanding of the two made Angels' embarrassment finally dissipate.

"I believe this day will not be long. Ingres said.

......

On the same day, Angels moved his luggage into a cottage in Apprentice Town.

The villa is located on the edge of the 8th apprentice town, near a small stream, because it is backed by the woods, from time to time you can see animals that are not afraid of life coming out of the woods, leisurely drinking water and resting by the stream. As soon as Angelfu arrived, he saw several sunset pelicans with huge red beaks fishing in the stream, and several white deer snuggling and drinking water on the shore.

"The natural scenery is beautiful. This quiet and beautiful first impression made Ingres's satisfaction with his new home swish.

The villa is surrounded by a white fence, which is low but carved with magic patterns, making it difficult to break through. The small courtyard inside the fence is not large, only a miniature flower house. There is a three-meter-tall mistletoe tree on the edge of the flower house, and the temperature in the mirror world is kept warm most of the time, so the branches and foliage of the tree are luxuriant, and if you look closely, you can find green fruit spores.

When Angel entered the villa, he found that the furniture inside had been sent by the caretaker and placed in the living room haphazardly, looking a little messy. Angels spent most of the day putting the furniture back to you, and in the process of tidying up, he gained a better understanding of the interior of the villa.

The villa has three floors, with a small triangular loft on the top floor, a guest room on the second floor, and a master bedroom, study and living room on the first floor. There is also a basement that is dedicated to cultivation.

Angels' own room was the master bedroom on the first floor, and the room he had arranged for Toby was the penthouse attic, which had a skylight through which he could see the mistletoe branches outside, which was very green and pleasing to the eye. Toby is also happy with his room, which makes him happy that he can fly out through the skylight at any time to let the wind out.

With Toby in place, Angel returned to his bedroom.

The bedroom had nothing but a bed, and the walls were empty, and Ingres looked at the white and oozing walls, and felt too lonely. He simply stood up and took out the two oil paintings from his luggage.

He hung "The Traveler Under the Stars" on the wall directly opposite the bed, and he did not hang out another "The Milking Shepherd", but put it in his study and covered it with a canvas at random. Ingres didn't know if there was a secret to the painting, so he didn't hang it out for the sake of prudence.

With the embellishment of oil paintings, the bedroom immediately has a sense of fullness. Angel was already exhausted from running around all day, and soon fell asleep in bed.

The next day, Angel woke up in the dark. I opened the curtains, walked to the balcony and moved around casually, breathing in the fresh air, looking at the blue distant mountains and the small animals playing by the nearby stream, and the mood was inexplicably quiet and comfortable.

He had no plans to go out today, and decided to officially start practicing the Guiding Method, and Ingres had great expectations for this "Singularity Scattering Meditation Method". I hope that with this guidance method, I can quickly enrich my own background and successfully save Jon's life after five years.

However, before he can practice the Guiding Method, he must first feel his spiritual power.

Angels let Toby move freely, and he hurried to the basement with some dry food.

The basement is very large and spacious, and the three basic magic energy arrays are all attached to the four walls, no matter what you do in it, it can effectively protect personal privacy and security, so many wizard apprentices transform the basement into a personal laboratory. Angels has no plans to renovate the basement at the moment, and the reason why he came to the basement is because there is a small side door, and inside is a quiet room of two or three square meters.

Ingres' destination is this ashram.

It is easiest to calm down in a cramped and quiet room, which is helpful for Ingre, who is meditating for the first time.

The first time I meditated, it didn't go well. Even with the special skill of Sanders's notes, he never managed to meditate.

The first step in meditation is to visualize the mental model in your mind, visualization and construction are two different things, but there is a deep inner connection, visualizing the mental model is to better construct the mental model, and have a preliminary idea of the model to be built.

This process, although ostensibly visualized, is actually for the purpose of feeling and guiding the spiritual power.

Psychic power is an abstract concept, and in order to materialize it, one must perceive its existence. How to perceive mental power is to visualize the mental power model in your mind, and at the same time to look for the mental power that is attracted by the mental power model.

That is, visualizing the model of mental power, and at the same time tracing the mental power.

However, when visualizing a mental power model, we should not focus on the visualization model, but should focus on feeling another force in the brain - mental power.

This method is extremely challenging because when you visualize a pattern, you will inevitably pay attention. It's very difficult to put all your attention on the other side.

This process is much like a well-known psychological test on the planet: the "pink elephant".

The psychologist told the subject that there was a pink elephant in the house, and then told the subject, "Don't think about that pink elephant." ”

But the result is often that after learning the message of "pink elephant", the subject will empty his mind no matter what, but his mind will irrepressibly and involuntarily think of the pink elephant inside.

This test is like a shaman's meditation process: the more you try to distract yourself, the harder it is to distract yourself. This is a typical kind of mental interference, if you want to forget the object of interference, you must be still in the body, mind, and spirit, and then slowly shift your attention in the state of "emptiness".

This is a very difficult process, ordinary people's thinking is complicated, and it is a process that requires perseverance if you want to have a thorough clear mind.

Because absolute silence is required to enter the state of emptiness, most wizards are lonely sages.

Of course, the cultivation is higher and the spiritual dust is less, and "absolute quietness" can be replaced by "relative quietness", and this realm can only be done by a formal wizard, and to reach this realm, even if you meditate in the middle of the city, you will not be affected by the hustle and bustle, and you can quickly enter the state. This is the "body quietness" that transcends the body, mind, and spirit, and reaches the state of "mind tranquility".

As for the higher levels of "spiritual tranquility", the conditions for achieving them are even more stringent.

......

For a week, Ingres didn't really go into a meditative state. There is absolute silence, but the thinking in my mind is too prosperous, as soon as I close my eyes and want to enter a meditative state, all kinds of demons and demons and distractions seem to be having a party in my brain, chirping and chirping, forcibly suppressing this side, and there is another gap on the other side. It's just hard to prevent.

Not to mention visualizing the mental power model, even controlling his mind without running away consumes a lot of Ingres' strength.

It was only then that Ingres realized how disordered his thinking was.

Angel is not the only one who is stuck in the first level of entry, the talents of this class have all received guidance methods from their respective mentors, but their guidance methods are all very popular guidance methods, which is probably the level of the "Triangle Guidance Method". They, like Ingres, were stumped by this first hurdle. Especially the gifted people who have become adults, they are used to seeing the life of dogs and horses, and they want to completely calm their minds, and they spend more energy.

On the contrary, Selum, although he is only 1 year younger than Ingres, his mind is much purer, so that he can practice with his eyes closed, and there are very few chaotic thoughts in his mind, and he can achieve the separation of visualization and concentration in a short period of time.

Serum's success stimulated Ingres, and in the next half a month, he didn't go out at all, just meditated at home, not believing that he couldn't succeed.

During this time, Sanders did not take the initiative to contact him, and he must have known the difficulties of beginners.

After a few more days, Ingres has a deeper understanding of meditation, in fact, meditation is a gradual process, Ingres does not want to achieve it overnight, now the main task to solve first: eliminate distracting thoughts.

It took him a week to get to this point.

The second step is to visualize the mental model and trace the spiritual power.

After another three days, Ingres had a preliminary idea of how to achieve separation of visualization and concentration. The mental power model of the "Singularity Scattering Method" that he visualized needs to be slowly reflected in Ingres's mind and turned it into an instinct, so that there will be no distraction, and it will be much easier to sense the mental power.

However, it is not easy to turn the mental power model of visualization into an instinct.

For another week, Ingres's meditation was still stumbling, although he could not completely separate the visualization from concentration, but when he visualized the mental power model in his mind, his attention could occasionally be withdrawn and pay attention to the search for spiritual power.

Although this phenomenon only occurs occasionally, it also gives Ingres more confidence.

Chance can become occasional, occasional can become constant, and often can become forever. However, this is a water mill and requires perseverance.

In the past half a month, Angels' progress has gradually kept up, and he is among the best among the talented people in this year. This is because his talent is really good, and secondly, because of the concentration of the magic energy array.

In this month and a half, Syrum was also looking for spiritual power, but his progress was the same as that of Angel, and he couldn't find spiritual power in any way, as if it didn't exist at all.

Angel and Serum discussed it privately, but after the exchange, they still didn't come to anything.

As for Nausicaa, it had been a long time since she had gone out, and according to Syrum, Nausicaa was still battling the mixed thoughts in her mind, and she rarely smoked even cigarettes.

After listening to this, Angel muttered secretly: "Actually, I think when she smokes, maybe the success rate is higher." Because Ingres found that whenever Nausicaa was smoking, she was very quiet and her expression was serene, and according to his experience in the past half month, this state was the easiest to eliminate complicated thoughts.

......

It was hard to withdraw his attention from the visualization, but no trace of his mental power could be found anyway, which made Ingres a little impatient.

Another half a month has passed, and now it is the month of cold, and in another month, he has been away from home for a whole year.

A fifth of his five-year appointment with Mentor Jon had passed, and he had not even entered the apprentice's door, which made him anxious.

On this day, after Ingres meditated, he still had no clue about the traces of spiritual power, he thought about it and decided to go to Phantom Island to ask Sanders.

All the way to Phantom Island, I also met Sanders smoothly.

But Sanders's reply made Ingres a little entangled. Sanders expressed his appreciation for Ingres's current practice progress, and as for how to trace his spiritual power, Sanders only said four words: water milling.

Haste makes waste.

Ingres knew this, too, but he was anxious.

When Angel left Phantom Island, he accidentally ran into Flora, and Angel's eyes lit up and he decided to ask Flora if there was any better way.

Flora's answer is exactly the same as Sanders's.

However, Flora looked at Angel with a look of impatience, and said, "I don't know what you're anxious about, anyway, I don't have anything to do." But one person may know, but it is not easy to get something substantial out of his mouth. ”
