Chapter 1103: Dreams and Souls
The indigenous heroes of the small world have little understanding of the power of dreams, and only think that it is an illusory thing that only exists in the imagination. So, Ye Zan asked Lin Mumu, a disciple of the Great Dream Daojun, to exert the power of dreams on the two indigenous heroes, so that the two of them deeply experienced the power of dreams.
However, Lin Mumu did not manifest the dream, so that the other bystanders could not see what was happening at all. In the eyes of those onlookers, the two companions just stood there stunned for a moment, and then some wounds appeared on their bodies inexplicably. It's really weird, but whether it has anything to do with the power of dreams that Ye Zan said, I'm afraid I have to ask the two witnesses.
"Alain, Iggy, calm down, calm down!" Seeing the overreaction of the two of them after waking up, the Sun King and the others next to him hurriedly called out loudly. They don't want the two of them to overreact and bring misunderstanding and trouble to this cooperation with the Visitor.
And hearing the voices of the Sun King and others, Alain Dillon and Ignatz finally woke up from that state of excess. After all, both of them are Faxiang-level powerhouses, even if they are not as refined as cultivators, they still have some ability in emotional control and other aspects.
"Alain, what just happened?" the Sun King asked the two of them as he stepped forward on behalf of the others.
Alain Dillon didn't answer the Sun King's question immediately, but first looked down at the wounds on his body, after all, those wounds were not fatal but they were quite painful. And after seeing those wounds on his body, the expression on his face was also a little shocked, and he turned his head to the Sun King and asked, "What did you do to me just now?"
"You mean the wound on your body? It's not something we did, it's a moment when you're standing there in a daze, and all of a sudden you appear out of thin air. The Sun King hurriedly explained to the other party, and then turned to the question he had just asked, "What happened to you just now, do you remember what you went through?"
"Is it a dream? What we saw just now was just a dream!" Ignatz next to him was already recalling his own experience at this time, but the more he recalled, the more his face was full of disbelief. It's like letting a staunch atheist suddenly see a ghost, which is a bit of a subversive feeling.
"Yes, it's a dream, it's a dream!" Alain Dillon also reacted, or rather recalled, after being reminded by Ignatz.
Hearing the words of the two people, although to a certain extent, verified Ye Zan's statement about the power of dreams. However, everyone was still very curious about the dreams of the two, and they wanted to know what the two of them had experienced in their dreams, and how the power of the dream had this effect.
"You two, can you calm down, we're still waiting to hear your answers!" Casaro urged anxiously.
"yes, yes, let's talk about it!" Lagris followed.
At the urging of everyone, Alain Dillon and Ignatz finally calmed down, remembering why the two of them had come forward to experience the power of dreams. As for the wounds on the two of them, they were just a little bleeding from the broken skin, which was nothing to the two pure body refiners, and with a little force, all the wounds were retracted.
"I'll say it first!" Alain Dillon sorted out his thoughts first, glanced deeply at Ye Zan and the others, turned around and returned to his seat, and then said to everyone: "After standing out just now, I suddenly felt that there was something wrong with you, and then I saw that you all showed the 'true face' of the orcs. I don't know why, but at that time I was so confident in my judgment that I didn't have the slightest doubt about the production of such a scene. Immediately after, it was naturally besieged by you, or rather, by those orcs, in short, the wounds on the body were left in the process. ”
What Alain Dillon said was very simple, just three or two sentences, and it was even difficult to connect with dreams, but more like some kind of illusion. However, the fact that everyone present does not understand the power of dreams does not mean that they do not understand dreams at all, after all, who has not had a few dreams.
In dreams, one of the biggest characteristics is not an absurd scene or story, but the dreamer's psychology of taking everything for granted. Many people may feel that everything in the dream is so ridiculous when they recall the dream after waking up from the dream. However, when he was in that absurd and ridiculous dream, he didn't have the logic of waking up at all, just that it was normal.
With the strength of Alain Dillon's law level, under the condition that the logic of thinking is not affected, they will not take the dream just now as reality no matter what. If these people around them were really orcs pretending, it was impossible for them not to notice it, and it would be impossible for them to forget why they were standing here.
But in the dream, Alain Dillon didn't think about why the orcs were able to perfectly avoid their own perception by pretending to be these companions. He didn't think about it at all, he had just stood up from the crowd and took the initiative to experience the power of the dream that the visitor from outside the world said, and he didn't even think about the visitor from outside the world.
"I'm a little different!" After listening to Alain Dillon's story, Ignatz, another experiencer, also spoke, and said to the crowd: "It's as if I'm back in my teenage years, back to an experience in my youth, like a memory. Of course, I mean reminiscing now. Actually, just now...... In my dream, I didn't seem to think about it at all, I was no longer a teenager, and those wolves had been slaughtered by me back then. Is...... It's a strange feeling. ”
Ignatz's dream experience is more convincing than Alain Dillon's, and it is closer to people's perception of dreams. If, after listening to Alain Dillon's story, there are still people who think that it is some kind of illusion. Then Ignatz's experience is undoubtedly a further way to tell everyone that this is really a dream, not an illusion.
"The two, in order to make the two of you, and the onlookers, believe that the dream realm does have great power. My companion was a little heavier, and he caused some trauma to both of them, so please don't blame them. Ye Zan also stood up here and apologized to the two of them on behalf of Lin Mumu, after all, he had cut so many cuts on people's bodies.
Of course, Ye Zan's apology was just for a show, and it was basically to emphasize the existence of the power of dreams, so that everyone could face up to the nightmare incident. And now, with Lin Mumu's demonstration, everyone has obviously realized that dreams are not just illusory imaginary things, but can really affect the power of reality.
"Indeed, this is really beyond our imagination, and we didn't expect that dreams can really do this. However, even so, the nightmare event you are talking about can probably only be described as a ...... Someone who controls the power of dreams or something else made it. This doesn't seem to have anything to do with what you said before, that special place. Frenna the Queen of the Night suddenly questioned.
Indeed, Ye Zan let Lin Mumu make a move, which only proved the existence of the power of dreams, but what is the connection with the source of power in this world? Although the people of this world have experienced Lin Mumu's methods until now, they know that the power of dreams can affect reality. But this does not mean that in the long history of this world, there is really absolutely no person who can manipulate the power of dreams.
And the nightmare incident mentioned by Ye Zan is, as Florena said, not so much the source of the power of the world, but more like something made by a villain who controls the power of dreams.
"What do you know about the human spirit?" Ye Zan suddenly asked the indigenous heroes.
"What?" The indigenous heroes who were waiting for Ye Zan to answer looked a little confused for a while when they heard Ye Zan's question, which seemed to be a bit off-topic.
Ye Zan did not wait for everyone to answer, but followed up with his own question, and said: "I have read a lot of information, the information of your world, and found that you not only have no understanding of the power of dreams, but also know nothing about the concept of 'soul'. ”
"Souls, what is that!" the native heroes asked, puzzled.
Since, when Ye Zan mentioned the word "soul", he did not find a corresponding word in the language of this world, so he used the pronunciation of the language of the monastic world. It's like introducing Chinese culture to foreigners, and it is always inevitable to "transliterate" some words, which sounds a little weird.
"In the world outside of us, man is divided into physical and spiritual bodies, and we call spiritual bodies 'souls'. The body is like a house, and the soul is the master who lives in the house, controlling the human body and doing all the outward actions. When the physical body dies, the soul is equivalent to losing a house, and will become a wanderer-like existence, perhaps called a 'wandering spirit'. Ye Zan explained to the indigenous heroes simply and straightforwardly.
"That's what you say...... Some are too ......" another knowledge beyond cognition, which makes the indigenous heroes feel that the three views are collapsing rapidly.
"If you want, I can let you experience it, and I believe that after the experience, you will understand whether my words are true or false. Ye Zan also knew that it was impossible to make the other party completely believe it with just one mouth, so he put forward a suggestion for experience.
In the world of technology, there is no truly convincing answer to the question of whether people have souls or not. One of the most fundamental reasons is that they do not have the ability to see souls, and everything can only be based on their own imagination. However, in the world of cultivation, because the laws of the world are different from those of the world of technology, people can see "ghosts", and naturally no one will deny the existence of souls.
And what Ye Zan wants the indigenous heroes to experience is actually through a small soul separation technique, so that they can experience what it is to go out of the body. No matter how good your eloquence is, no matter how many theories you say, no matter how many promises you make, it is not as pleasant as letting the other party experience it for yourself.
Because they had already experienced the power of dreams before, the indigenous heroes were much less guarded against the experience that Ye Zan mentioned again.
"Let me experience it. Casaro, the wind elf, stood up and said with curiosity and excitement.
"Come on, I'm interested in this soul too. Frena, the Queen of the Night, followed suit.
In fact, in addition to Casaro and Frenna, other indigenous heroes also wanted to experience it, but they didn't rob these two. Of course, they also knew that they still had to be vigilant against Ye Zan and his party, so they didn't grab it too fiercely.
"Well, it's up to the two of you to experience it. Please also relax and don't have any thoughts of resistance in your heart. As Ye Zan spoke, he reached out and pinched a soul separation technique, and two spiritual lights shot at the eyebrows of the two of them.
With the submergence of the two spiritual rays, looking at Casaro and Frenna again, just like the two before, it seemed that they were suddenly stunned. However, when it was different from the previous two, the two of them soon had different changes in their bodies, and a ball of light slowly emerged above each person's head.
"This ...... This is ......" Seeing the small light figures floating above the heads of the two people, the indigenous heroes present were immediately stunned.
"Actually, ordinary people can't see the existence of souls, but on the one hand, the strength of the two is very strong, and the others are not ordinary people, so they can see their souls so directly. Ye Zan explained to everyone.
When Ye Zan explained to everyone, the two little light people were the "souls" of the two people, and they were very curious. The two little light figures jumped out of their bodies completely, like floating bubbles, slowly floating from here to there, and from there to other places, having a lot of fun.
"Drawing souls out of the body is actually a relatively dangerous thing, especially for people who have not specialized in soul cultivation. In your present condition, you can only leave your physical body for a short time, and you cannot see the sun or hear the thunder. So, to be on the safe side, it's best to go back to your body as soon as possible after the test. Looking at the two playful old monsters, floating outside with great joy, Ye Zan hurriedly reminded the two.
Under Ye Zan's warning, the two of them also remembered that they were still down to business, so they finally put away their playfulness, and each floated back to their bodies, and drilled back from the top of their heads. And the next moment when the two little light people burrowed back into their bodies, their physical bodies, which seemed to be standing there in a daze, also shook twice suddenly, and opened their eyes one after another.
"Frena, what did you feel just now, did you feel anything wrong?" asked the Sun King Bartley, holding Frenna in his arms, with a concerned face.
"No, no, the experience just now, it was interesting. Frenna steadied herself and thought back to what she had just experienced, as if she wanted to experience it again.
"Indeed, it was an interesting experience that the spirit and the body can really be separated. Casaro also said while reminiscing.
