Chapter 175: True and False Confusion
"I didn't expect you to progress so quickly."
Dorogu led Meng Xuan to walk on the giant tree of Agunoli, and said with some emotion in his eyes.
"This time, I applied for the right to use the 'True and False Maze' for three days specifically for you, and the old guy of Phantom Flow and I will personally supervise the formation for you, although the real and false Maze has a certain protection function, and there are few accidents, but it is not absolute, the old guy of Phantom Flow participated in the layout of the Maze at the beginning, and it will be a lot safer with him."
"There is a labor tutor bothered, but I don't know much about the effect of the 'true and false maze', the information says that this maze is forged by amplifying the oppressive force of the subconscious, but the specific form is not introduced in detail."
Meng Xuan followed behind Dorogu and walked towards Agunoli Academy, earnestly asking for advice.
"The maze of truth and falsehood is a path, a path to see the soul."
"That little girl from Melinsel once helped you with the dream method exercise, her phagogue is very special, and its function is actually somewhat similar to the true and false maze, that is, to activate and mobilize your subconscious."
"It's just that the dream law will activate the hostility of the subconscious, so as to attack the master's manifest consciousness in the illusion, while the true and false maze will not let the subconscious attack, but will only allow the subconscious to oppress and temper your manifest consciousness extremely strongly."
"The specific form, it's hard to tell you clearly, in short, it boils down to one sentence: don't get lost, don't stop your steps, go on firmly."
Dorogu said as he walked with Meng Xuan.
Meng Xuan nodded, taking this sentence to heart.
He knew that when it comes to technology and experience in the realm of consciousness, it is often difficult to describe it in words, and it is usually allegorical, general, or revelatory sentences, and the meaning of them can only be experienced when you are there.
The two soon arrived at the door of the Agunoli Academy.
This is a junior academy in the Black Forest, and the main students include the descendants of the full members of the Black Devourer, the highly qualified young people in the Black Forest Town, and the determined malleable talents recruited from the outside world.
The academy teaches some very basic knowledge, and the highest level of ordinary students is only half a step transcendental, once they become transcendental, they will leave the junior academy, choose a fixed mentor, and become a full member of the Black Devourer.
The two of them walked into the Agunoli Academy, and now it seemed to be a recess, and along the way, one by one, wearing the black robe of an apprentice, with young and energetic faces engraved on their faces, respectfully saluted the two of them wearing the black robe of the blade flow system, making Meng Xuan feel like he had entered the magic academy in a trance.
Entering the backyard, Dorogu took out his crystal card, swiped open a large iron door, and took Meng Xuan around the tree-covered backyard path, and suddenly his eyes suddenly opened up.
This was a clearing hidden in the woods, and two huge stone walls about ten meters high and forty or fifty meters long appeared in front of Meng Xuan, and between the two stone walls, there was a straight path.
On the stone walls and paths, there are a large number of patterns, densely packed, almost like a hypnotic atlas, and at first glance it is an extremely complex ritual array.
At the entrance of the path, Meng Xuan saw the figure of Claudi, the old man of the Phantom Stream, beside Claudi, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a black robe who was an official member of the Black Devourer, two boys of about sixteen or seventeen years old, who were squatting on the ground, comforting a beautiful girl who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and her body was still trembling slightly.
"You're here."
Claudi nodded to Dorogu and Meng Xuan who came over, and the middle-aged man beside him also hurriedly saluted Dorogu and gave Meng Xuan a friendly nod.
Meng Xuan first saluted Claudi, and then nodded back to the middle-aged man.
"In the maze of truth and falsehood, the most important thing is determination, overcome your weakness, fear, awe and all other negative emotions, if you can't even distinguish between truth and falsehood, and firmly follow your own path, what qualifications do you have to be worthy of the title of twisted conqueror, Gigrie, stop crying, if you don't dry your tears, I don't think you need to try the maze again, we won't put the precious qualification to use the maze on a crybaby."
Claudie scolded the pretty sixteen-year-old girl in a stern tone.
Gergley was so frightened that she hurriedly sniffed, wiped away her tears three times and two times, and tightened her little face, not daring to have any expression.
The other two boys seemed to want to intercede for her, but under Claudius's stern eyes, they swallowed the words back into their stomachs.
"Claudi, be more tolerant of newcomers, don't be so harsh, you see what scares the little guys, this is the few little guys you Phantom Stream focuses on cultivating this year?"
Dorogu glanced at a few apprentices and said.
"Yes, they are all good seedlings, but they are too immature, their strength is not weak, they are all at the peak level of mortals, but it's a pity that they can't even walk the first ten meters of the first stage of the True and False Maze, and they are still crying, what kind of system."
Claudi glared at the middle-aged man next to him who seemed to be a faculty member of the academy very dissatisfied, and the middle-aged man could only smile helplessly.
"Alright, Claudie, there has to be a gradual process in everything, after all, not everyone is a genius."
Dorogu touched his big bald head, laughed, and glanced at Meng Xuan intentionally or unintentionally.
"Shut up, my people need to rest for a while, let this kid go up and see how far he can go."
Claudi glared at Dorogu angrily, this guy is still showing off with himself?
Dorogu smiled, didn't bother with the old man Claudi, turned to Meng Xuan and said, "Go and try, remember, don't stay, don't get lost, move forward firmly, don't embarrass me." ”
Meng Xuan nodded and slowly walked towards the True and False Realm.
The middle-aged instructor and several teenagers and girls who had just been reprimanded all stared at Meng Xuan's figure curiously.
Regarding Meng Xuan's matter, Claudi also introduced it to them in advance just now.
Looking at Meng Xuan, who was about the same age as them, the other party was actually already a formal member of the condensed secret pattern, and he was promoted through the ancient method before joining the organization.
It made them feel a little incredible.
Only by walking the twisted road will you know how difficult the road is.
Any bit of fear, fear, hesitation, and other negative emotions will be infinitely magnified, and if you are not careful, you will fall and go crazy.
They also wanted to know how far Meng Xuan, who was trying the true and false maze for the first time like them, could go.
"How far do you think he can go?"
Dorogu looked at Meng Xuan, who was walking towards the True and False Realm Path, and asked Claudi.
"How do I know?"
Claudi asked angrily.
"True and false maze, in the final analysis, is to help users understand the path of the mind, everyone's mind is different, the difficulty is not the same, people with simple and pure minds, the less negative information in the subconscious, the simpler the test they face, the more gloomy and complex the mind, the more negative information in the subconscious, and the more difficult the test they face.
The strength of consciousness and control are only one of the conditions, and the most important thing is to see whether he can face up to his negative emotions, firmly believe in his own judgment, and go on his own path. ”
Claudi shrugged.
Meng Xuan slowly walked into the path, and as he approached, the extremely complex lines on the stone wall and the path seemed to shake up, connecting into one, and the whole world became extremely illusory and trance-like.
A familiar sense of unreality and weirdness suddenly surged into his heart, and an inexplicable vibration sounded in his ears, and the strange feeling of using the Endless Staircase Method to travel through the world made his heart shake slightly.
The further you go, the more you feel the obstruction of walking under the water.
As he stepped onto the path covered with formations.
Airplanes!!
A sense of vibration came, and Meng Xuan felt a subtle film barrier appear in front of him.
Boundary Wall?!
Meng Xuan's heart tightened.
Could it be that by chance, with the help of complex formations, he strengthened his sense of inspiration and trance, and inadvertently used the Endless Staircase Method to shuttle through the realm?
He took a deep breath and took a step forward, through the membrane.
The violent realm shuttle tremor came, and Meng Xuan's eyes flickered, and then everything became real.
It was like he had entered a new world.
"Coming back? Where have you been? Why is it so late? I'm waiting for you to eat together. ”
Meng Xuan was stunned, and an extremely familiar voice appeared in his ears.
The trance-like picture in front of his eyes gradually became clearer.
This is a small but very warm and tidy home.
In the corner of the living room, there is a small dining table with three or four steaming meals on it, exuding a faint fragrance.
The face of a familiar woman with loose hair, wearing a loose pajamas, plain face, slightly fat, not good-looking or ugly.
The woman was smiling at him, and in the woman's arms, she was holding a toddler who was only about two or three years old, with a chubby head and big shining eyes, and looked very cute.
Meng Xuan looked at himself, dressed in a work uniform and carrying a briefcase in his hand, standing in the hallway, as if he had just pushed the door home.
What a familiar scene········
He froze in place, suddenly afraid to look at the woman and the baby in her arms.
"What's wrong with you? Are you too tired to work and uncomfortable? ”
The woman frowned, walked in front of Meng Xuan with the toddler in her arms, and stretched out her hand to touch Meng Xuan's forehead.
Meng Xuan could feel the real and warm touch on that hand, and he could even feel the breath of life and the real pulse.
Standing in front of him was like a real person.
His wife from a previous life.
He originally thought that this was just a "suitable" person, there was no fiery affection and attachment between them, she was more like an unreal synonym in memory, which had long disappeared with time.
He once thought that even if this person from his previous life appeared in front of him again, he would not have a trace of waves, and the memories of his previous life would only be as empty as a dream.
But he found out that he was wrong, in fact, deep down, he did not forget everything.
Even in an ordinary life, there are too many stories.
"Daddy~Hug~~"
The babbling toddler opened his hands to Meng Xuan, and his immature chubby little face was full of cute smiles, as if he was happy that his father had come home.
Meng Xuan took a deep breath.
Is this the maze of truth and falsehood?
"What are you doing? Guoguo let you hold it. ”
The woman frowned, with a look of disgust, and raised the toddler in her hand in front of Meng Xuan.
His heart throbbed slightly, and he straightened up and looked at the woman and the child steadily.
"Did you stop at the first step?"
Seeing that Meng Xuan's first step into the path was fixed in place, Dorogu couldn't help but frown.
"It seems that deep in his heart, it is more complicated than we imagined, otherwise with the strength of his consciousness, it is impossible to stop at the first step."
Claudie shook her head and said.
Seeing that Meng Xuan had stopped at the first step, the three teenagers and girls glanced at each other and breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.
I walked seven or eight meters, how come there are more than a dozen steps, and it doesn't seem so bad?
Meng Xuan stared at the woman and the young child in front of him quietly, as if he wanted to keep them in his heart.
The more I looked, the stronger the sense of trance and slumber, and the subconscious mind was rapidly pulling the conscious consciousness that represented reason into chaos.
"It's a pity that you are only my memories, and I may miss them occasionally, but I will never stop moving forward because of the past."
Meng Xuan said to the woman in a gentle voice, and from beginning to end, he didn't take the young child who the woman stretched out in front of him and stared at him with big eyes and expectation.
"Xu Yupeng! I think you're dreaming and haven't woken up yet, right?! Talking nonsense here as soon as you get home?! ”
The woman put the baby in her arms back into her arms and said to Meng Xuan angrily.
"Dreaming? Maybe. Who can tell the difference between dream and reality? Perhaps, we are all in a dream, a real dream. ”
Meng Xuan smiled slightly, staggered past the woman, and stepped out.
The woman seemed to say something out loud to him, and seemed to reach out to pull him, but the scenes were fleeting, and as he stepped out, they quickly blurred, and the feeling of passing through the membrane of the boundary wall reappeared.
Another familiar scene appeared in front of Meng Xuan's eyes.
It was an ordinary hospital room, and several people, including the woman who had just appeared, gathered around the bed.
On the hospital bed, an emaciated old man with an auxiliary ventilator, like a candle flame in the wind, used the last strength of his life, and held Meng Xuan's hand tightly with the old and dry palm that was full of calluses from his youth, his mouth was purring, as if he was saying something, his pupils were slowly dilating, and there was a trace of reluctance left in it.
The touch of these hands is so real and familiar, and the old face is so unforgettable.
Looking at the old man who was slowly losing his breath of life, Meng Xuan's heart suddenly ached, as if he had been pierced by a sharp arrow, his nose was sore, and his eyes couldn't help but blur.
How he wanted to save the old man who had been pulled by himself since he was a child, just like he had saved old Azler, but he knew that all this was just a false illusion.
A sense of powerlessness and anger welled up in his heart.
At this moment, he really felt that he was still a person, an ordinary person.
