Chapter 23: The World of the Mind

By the time Leo came to the Yijian Club, it was already 8:30.

Walking into the door of the club, he said to the staff at the front desk, "Hello, may I ask which room Master Jiang is in." ”

"Master Jiang...... You are Mr. Leo, the young master has already explained, please come with me. ”

The staff said politely and warmly, got up and led Leo to the fifth floor by elevator, stopping in front of a wooden door.

"Mr. Leo, Master Jiang is resting here, if you need anything, please feel free to call the front desk and tell me."

"Thank you." Leo nodded politely to the staff.

"That's what I'm supposed to do." The staff bowed respectfully before leaving.

Standing in front of the wooden door, Leo paused, raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"Knock knock."

"Master Jiang, are you there, I'm Leo."

After a short wait, a warm and magnetic male voice came from behind the door: "The door is not locked, please come in." ”

Hearing this, Leo pushed the door open.

The room behind the door is large and luxuriously decorated, and there is a large wooden table three meters long by the window, and an old man with slightly silver hair stands behind the table, writing on rice paper with a brush in hand.

He is tall and tall, wearing a silver-black Tang suit, and his figure looks from a distance to give people a wonderful feeling that is indescribable.

Seeing Master Jiang practicing the brush, Leo closed the door slowly, and then walked slowly to the desk two meters away, waiting quietly.

The words written on the rice paper were not very understandable, but the strong and powerful ink made him feel the freedom and uninhibition in the old man's heart.

After a while, the old man who finished the pen exhaled lightly, he put down the pen, raised his head and looked at Leo not far away, and smiled warmly: "Little friend Leo, I've kept you waiting for a long time." I'm sorry, but I have a stinky problem, and I feel uncomfortable when I don't finish writing. ”

"Where, I'm bothering you." Leo said politely.

As the old man looked up, Leo was finally able to get a glimpse of him in his entirety.

His face was ordinary, but his eyes were unusually bright, with a warm shimmer.

"Do you know what I've written?"

Master Jiang pointed to the rice paper in front of him and asked with a smile.

"Uh...... Actually, I don't know much about calligraphy. Leo smiled awkwardly.

"It doesn't hurt if I can't see clearly, what I write is 'id, ego, superego'." Master Jiang's face was leisurely: "They are the three parts that make up the human spirit. ”

"In daily life, our behavior is dominated by consciousness, but under consciousness, there is also a subconscious, and the essence of hypnosis is to communicate with the subconscious through specific actions or gestures. The subconscious mind is actually the 'id' in the three major parts of the spirit. ”

"Leo friend."

Master Jiang suddenly looked at Leo fixedly, his eyes flowing with an inexplicable luster: "Through your eyes, I find that your id, ego and superego are in a perfect and harmonious state, and in this state, you should not have the nightmare phenomenon that Antonio said. ”

"Can you tell me about what happened to you lately?"

After listening to the old man's words, Leo's heart was shocked, and his pupils contracted slightly.

This guy is by no means a wasted person!

Just by looking at me, I could get a glimpse of my mental state and know that I wasn't in a nightmare for mental reasons...... Is this a hypnotist......

Moreover, the id, ego, and superego ......

Leo put away the original contempt in his heart, and his expression became serious.

"Master Jiang, what are the id, ego, and superego you are talking about?"

"Oh?" Master Jiang smiled: "You want to know?" So I'll explain it briefly. ”

"The id, which is the most primitive desire of human beings to satisfy instinctual impulses, such as hunger, anger, etc., is innate to human beings and is the basis of the personality structure."

"The ego, the psychological component of the personality, is gradually differentiated from the id."

"The superego, on the other hand, is the regulator of the personality structure, governed by the principle of perfection, belongs to the moral part of the personality structure, and is located at the top of the personality structure."

"The id-ego and the superego are inherently opposed, regulated by the ego."

"When the three exist in harmony, the human spirit is healthy, otherwise, all kinds of problems will arise."

After hearing this, Leo was silent for a moment, and he said in a low voice: "Master Jiang, if there is a person who has lost his mind and become extremely crazy, then what part of his spirit is wrong?" ”

As he said this, Leo couldn't help but feel a little depressed in his mind when he thought of the appearance of Kuwen Usman, the trainee knight of Lanlois, who had lost his mind and had become a bloodthirsty and crazy slave.

"Oh?" Master Jiang looked at Leo deeply and explained, "That must be something wrong with his superego or ego." There are two situations here, either, it is his superego that has become weak because of the blow of something, and is unable to restrain his instinctive desires. Either that, or the desires of his ego are too strong and break through the limitations of the superego. ”

"The first type of person who is common and has a sudden and great change. As for the second one......"

"What's the second one?" Leo couldn't wait to ask.

Kuwen Usman's case obviously does not belong to the first type, he is eroded by distortion, if he understands the principle, maybe he can peek into the principle of distortion's erosion of the human body from the side.

"The second one is relatively rare, Xiaoyou, do you know the kind of drug that can trigger human desire?"

"The drug that stimulates the human body's desire......" Leo was stunned.

"yes, that's what you think." The old man looked at Leo and teased: "People who take this medicine, the body's instinctive desires will completely overwhelm the shackles of superego morality, and do something that is absolutely impossible to do under normal circumstances. ”

"Drugs are only the lowest one, and when the desires fade, the superego will eventually regain control of the personality, and the person will return to normal. But if the desires that the ego breeds are completely freed from the bondage of the superego, then the person is basically hopeless. ”

"Is that so...... Thank you for your questions. Leo nodded thoughtfully, having a vague idea in his heart, but he couldn't grasp it.

In the time that followed, Leo talked to Master Jiang a lot, mostly about the connection between the id, ego, and superego.

Half an hour later, Leo got up from his seat and bowed respectfully to Master Jiang: "Thank you very much, Master Jiang, for talking to you and benefiting me a lot. ”

"Where, I'm ashamed to say it, in the end, I still couldn't find out where the source of your nightmare was, and I couldn't help you solve this problem, it's really ......" Master Jiang stopped with a wry smile.

You'll have a ghost if you can find out.

Leo's face remained unchanged, and he complained in his heart.

He straightened up and was just about to say goodbye to Master Jiang, when at this moment, there was a "click" sound at the door.

Leo subconsciously turned his head to look, but the slender figure he saw in his eyes made his pupils shrink.

It's her?

How did she come here?
