Chapter 153: Distractions

"I want to control my subconscious." Qi Xia whispered, "I need to ask Han Yimo not to think about something. ”

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "Qi Xia, you close your eyes, I'll do an experiment with you." ”

"Okay." Qi Xia nodded and closed his eyes.

"Qi Xia, please don't imagine a black cat." Lin said.

After hearing this, Qi Xia closed his eyes and frowned silently.

"Now, please don't imagine that the black cat is looking at you."

"And don't imagine it has a pair of beautiful, brown eyes."

Qi Xia was silent.

"Now, please don't imagine that the black cat is slowly coming towards you."

"I ......" Qi Xia's brows slowly loosened, and he quietly listened to Lin Yi's narration.

"Don't imagine that the black cat rubbed your leg and seemed to be hungry."

"You don't realize it, that black cat's fur is very soft."

"You don't know, but it actually likes you."

Seeing that Qi Xia's expression had completely calmed down, Lin Yi slowly asked:

"So Qi Xia...... You look around, where are you standing now? ”

Qi Xia frowned slightly after hearing this, and he looked around to see that he was actually standing at home.

"If you're tired, you can rest in bed for a while." Lin Yi said.

Qi Xia slowly turned around and found a bed behind him.

But he never slept in bed.

He was stunned and opened his eyes instantly.

The flat expression on his face vanished, replaced by coldness and despair.

"Ringo, are you hypnotizing me?"

"It's not hypnosis, it's just a mental relaxation." Lin Yi smiled and nodded, "Qi Xia, you look very tired, and your heart is also very depressed, so you won't be able to hold on." ”

"There's no need." Qi Xia shook his head, "Let's discuss something more important." ”

"Hmm." Lin Yi nodded, "Actually, I've already given you an example. ”

"Example......

Lin Yi nodded: "Did you find out?" Humans cannot understand "negative words". ”

As Lin Yi said, when she kept telling herself to "don't" to think about certain things, Qi Xia's mind would shape it very clearly.

"This is a very typical psychological phenomenon, people are happy to use "don't do something" to persuade others, such as "don't be too tired", "don't care too much about other people's eyes", in the ears of others, it will become "you are tired", "you care a lot about other people's eyes", and the persuasion effect will be counterproductive."

Qi Xia nodded after hearing this, and said with a melancholy expression: "So we can't interfere with other people's thoughts?" ”

"To be honest, we can't even control our own thoughts, so how can we interfere with others?"

The problem is indeed very tricky, it is difficult for Han Yimo to break through this road, and the key point may still be on Officer Li.

Qi Xia could only ask again: "Then if I want a person's subconscious to believe in an impossible thing, can this be done?" ”

Lin Yi blinked after hearing this, and asked, "Do you know the 'echoer' that this aunt is talking about?" ”

"Yes." Qi Xia nodded, "Officer Li." ”

"He's the one who can pull out the bills?" Lin Yi asked again.

"Almost."

"That's also very difficult...... "The reason why people are called 'people' is because we all have basic cognitive abilities, and when people are not sure whether they have cash in their pockets, their first thought is "I may have money in my pocket" rather than "I must have a stack of money in my pocket", according to my aunt, the first situation is to fail. ”

Qi Xia nodded: "Then there is no way to influence him?" ”

"There are two ways to give it a try." "The first is long-term brainwashing, similar to hypnosis, although it will waste a lot of time, but it will also make the other party always think that they have money in their pockets, but this also has the disadvantage, that is, it may affect the normal logical thinking of the other party." He will think that there can be nothing else in his pocket but money. ”

Qi Xia nodded again: "Second?" ”

"The second is ......," Lin Yi swallowed in embarrassment, "let this person completely lose his normal cognitive abilities and fall into a state of delirium or confusion...... That way he will always believe in himself. ”

"That is, to become a madman?" Qi Xia asked.

"That's right." Lin Yi nodded, "You will find that all the people in this world who are called "crazy" are very pure, including the mentally ill, they have a strong sense of conviction and will believe in something strange. ”

If so, aren't the "extreme" people just a bunch of crazy people?

They have a high probability of activating "Echoes" precisely because they are insane enough.

And Aunt Tong in front of her, she believes in the "mother goddess", and it doesn't look normal.

But why did Ringo know so much?

"Ringo, you ......"

Qi Xia had something to say, but after thinking for a while, he still didn't say it.

Some things are inconvenient to say in public, maybe it would be better to say them when the two of them are alone.

When a few people came back to their senses, Aunt Tong had already finished her elaboration of the concept of "echo" and began to talk about the opportunity of "echo".

According to her, "reverberation" is usually only in the "initial stage" when an opportunity is needed, and when a person feels the "echo" many times, it means that he has completely won the favor of the "mother goddess", and then he can take the initiative to "reverberate", so as to obtain supreme power. Of course, there are also some people whose "reverberation" is too special, and they always have to take advantage of the opportunity.

"How do you turn off the 'Echo'?" Qi Xia raised his hand and asked.

"Close?" Aunt Tong stared at Qi Xia, "Why do you want to close it?" Who in this world would voluntarily give up the gift of the Mother Goddess? ”

"It is possible that your Mother Goddess is not giving a reward, but a curse." Qi Xia said, "There will always be people who want to turn off their own 'echoes'. ”

"Child, you can interpret 'reverberation' as a sound wave that you can hear when it covers you, but the sound wave will disperse."

After hearing this, Qi Xia paused and asked, "Are you saying that the 'reverberation' is temporary?" ”

"That's right." Aunt Tong nodded, "We never need to actively turn off the 'Echo', we just need to wait for it to slowly dissipate. ”

Qi Xia glanced at Han Yimo casually.

He has been "echoing" for a whole day.

So...... How long will his "reverberation" last?

Will it be ten days?

Then Aunt Tong began to preach the greatness of the "Mother Goddess" again.

Because the "reverberation" she displayed was so eerie, several people believed her words.

For some reason, Qi Xia felt a deeper despair in Aunt Tong's preaching.

When a world can only pray to "God" to save itself, it proves that the "man" living in this world has no way at all.

Will they really be able to get out of here?

Can I really ask the "god" here to go back to Yu Nian'an and then hug her again?

"I was just going to give her a better life......"

Qi Xia's eyes became lonely, and his heart was extremely painful.

Aunt Tong continued to say to everyone: "As long as we get rid of the 'residual thoughts' in our hearts, we will definitely be able to gain the favor of the 'Mother Goddess' and finally obtain the power of the 'Mother Goddess'!" ”

Qi Xia frowned, feeling very uncomfortable, and couldn't help asking, "Auntie, it is generally said to "get rid of distracting thoughts", but why do you always say "get rid of residual thoughts"? ”

"Don't you understand, child?" "Residual thoughts" are "miscellaneous thoughts". Aunt Tong said slowly.
