Superpowers of Sky City

Chapter 123 Dream Interpretation

Gongsun Ce's super power is considered to have gone berserk, and now the one that tossed him has been replaced with something new.

A black-red spot of light emerged from the gray-haired youth's heart, condensing into a sword-like shape and rushing forward. In mid-February, the power that killed the Glazed Dragon reappeared, and this power was about to poke a hole in Yan Qi's house, and followed the momentum straight to the sky!

The formation under Gongsun Ce was full of light, pulling black and red spots into the paper.But the power of the final sword immediately began to struggle hard, dyeing the rice paper and the circle black.

Shi Yulian asked in a low voice: "Am I here to make a deal?"

"No hurries."

Yan Qi picked up a brush and drew the pentagram that once sealed the sword and eye pupils.The ink mark rapidly enlarged, turning into a mark with a radius of one meter under his palm.Tianji took another mark, and said in his mouth: "Stop!"

The pentagram covered Gongsun Ce's body, and the power of the final sword suddenly eased. Yan Qi immediately said: "In the name of justice, righteousness and morality, bind this bastard!"

As soon as he said this, Gongsun Ce's body surface was covered with a layer of white.Bai Zhi firmly restrained the sleeping youth, completely sealing back the black and red sword light.

Rao Shi Yulian had a strong psychological quality, so he couldn't help but feel a bit of fear.He believed with [-]% certainty that if no one made a move in front of him, his best friend would be dead, and what would be more terrifying would be what happened later...

The young man in the suit said helplessly, "Mr. Yan, I can't learn this."

"Joke, is this something you can learn?" Yan Qi sneered, "Wait and see the follow-up before making a decision."

·
Gongsun Ce looked at the shaking building happily, waiting for something to break out of the ground and give him a good time.But the apartment building only shook for a while, and then gradually stabilized.He ran to the window in disbelief, and found that the scene outside had changed suddenly.

The overwhelming white matter covered the entire desert, making it difficult for a grain of sand to float up. He was extremely at a loss, as if he was in an endless snowfield.

With the stabilization of the external environment, Gongsun Ce's turbulent negative emotions were suppressed all of a sudden, as if someone had given him a heavy hammer on the head, causing him to fall into a strange calm while being dizzy. .

Gongsun Ce froze for a few seconds before finally realizing what happened.He looked at Elandia on the chair. The latter picked up the wordless book he discarded at some point, and was flipping through the books page by page, reading with gusto.

"Are you poisonous? What's so interesting? Can you let me go?" Gongsun Ce said frantically, "You want to see me go crazy so much? See me struggle in the normal world after realizing my essence? You are a sadist Do you have the heart to torture a poor man like this? Or is this another way of expressing your kindness, pinching someone's neck with your hand and stuffing candy into your mouth?"

Dawn Knight replied without raising his head.

"Self-torture is the feat of the weak, self-mutilation is the monument of the mean."

This sentence blocked all his unspoken speeches.

Nonsense and provocation have never worked with this woman.

Gongsun Ce grabbed the silver-haired woman's shoulders with both hands, and begged in a low voice: "Elandia, I'm already like this... Can you say something nice? The hot-blooded hero risked his life to fight, and there is a backstory anyway." The spirit or partner or goddess shouted from behind, "Don't give up", "I believe in you", "You are the most handsome in the world". I am suffering almost as much as I did three years ago, and I am almost devastated. You Say something nice and give me some comfort so that I can stand up again and look for Lingguang or some other precious treasure, so that I have the courage to face his f*cking reality!"

Elandia smiled.

Her smile was not wide, and the corners of her mouth were only slightly raised. At first, Gongsun Ce always felt that this distant and formal smile was laughing at him, or at other people who were more stupid or incompetent than herself.It wasn't until later that he finally noticed the kindness in the woman's eyes, and realized that she was just not good at expressing it.

Her tone of voice was calm, and there were not too many ups and downs.

"Ce, I'm not your mother, nor your lover."

Gongsun Ce covered his face and lay down on the bed, pretending to be dead.

He had never been so glad that there were only the two of them in this place. If others listened to his words, he would really be ashamed to see others in his life.

"I thank you, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to stab me." Gongsun Ce said with his eyes closed, "Now we are all finished, we can stay in this small room and torture each other until the end of the world."

Gongsun Ce knew exactly what would happen next.

The aura of nature should be the treasure hidden in the deepest part of the heart.Now he has discovered his negative nature, but he has not found the light in his heart.If you can't find the aura, you can't go back, and if you can't go back, you have to stay in this place forever.Unless there is a hero from heaven to save him, Gongsun Ce will become a vegetable and lie outside for the rest of his life.

Dawn Knight calmly flipped through the blank book, as if he wasn't going to talk to him anymore.Gongsun Ce held back for a while, and couldn't help but said, "I'm serious, is there such a good-looking thing? What can you see without a single word?"

Elandia closed the book.

"You have learned to interpret dreams."

He has learned.Not in the psychology elective course at the university, but in the small stove that Yan Qi taught him.

In an impermanent world, dreams are closely related to the heart.They believe that the mind is a "illusory" thing that transcends the physical horizon but corresponds to the real world.There is a power in the heart that ordinary people cannot discover, and that power comes from people's experiences, past, mental state, and the true nature of things they have seen or even never seen.

Under normal circumstances, human thinking cannot understand the power in the heart. These concepts that actually exist but cannot be touched are difficult to give a tangible definition through language and words, so they can only appear in the form of "symbols".

Symbols are all causes and attempts, all intuitions and perceptions, all ideal and irrational considerations, conclusions, generalizations, and all changes of feeling.It contains everything in people's hearts, but ordinary people often see it in confusion, like looking at flowers in a fog.

"Everything that appears in a dream is a symbol. The deeper you go, the more information the symbol contains." Gongsun Ce replied boredly, "The way to interpret the meaning of symbols is to interpret dreams."

"Basically correct." Elandia handed him the wordless book, "Try to interpret the dream."

Gongsun Ce raised his knuckles, tapped the cover, and said dryly: "The appearance is beautiful, but the inside is empty, which reflects my superficial essence. Not a single word in the book indicates that I live aimlessly, Nothingness; the layers of decoration and shell on the outside of the book reflect that I have long been aware of my own essence, but I have covered it up with grandiose expressions and relied on self-deception to survive. Because the awareness of the essence makes me feel broken, and I cannot survive without deceiving myself. Ten times Eighty-nine will be willing to degenerate and even commit suicide."

He threw the book on the bed and kept silent.

Elandia commented: "A reasonable interpretation."

"Oh, I'm so familiar with your set." Gongsun Ce said with a grin. "It's reasonable to tantalize your appetite first! Then change the subject, but the key factor is missing, so it's not correct. Damn it, this is my dream." , do you understand me better than me?"

Elandia got up and stood in the middle of the room, and began to speak in his familiar tone.

"Based on the hypothetical premise, countless reasonable speculations can be made." She raised a finger and pressed it under the brim of her deerstalker hat. "Only by finding real evidence can the only correct inference be made."

Always remember to connect your thoughts with a complete logical chain...

Gongsun Ce answered the words in his heart, and then sighed, "Miss Knight, we are not solving the case now. This is my dream, this place has no rationality and no logic. I am happy to be your assistant to accompany you on the streets of Superbia Running here and there, but now it doesn't work. Where's the evidence and logic for interpreting symbols?"

The silver-haired woman shook her finger.

"There is still a self-consistent logic in the dream, it just depends on whether you can interpret it."

She took off her deerstalker hat and put it on Gongsun Ce's head.

"Now I am your assistant, you come to find out your truth."

Gongsun Ce opened his mouth blankly, feeling the heat remaining on the hat, and didn't know what to say for a while.

He took back the book in embarrassment, and whispered, "...I'll try."

The person with superpowers began to reconstruct logic and look at everything he encountered from a rational perspective.

He first stepped into the absurd desert, where there is no memory and no rationality. Symbols such as the black sun, spaceship, and desert contain a lot of information, but no matter how you think about it, it has nothing to do with his essence and should be discarded.

After stepping into the apartment, he climbed up but fell down, which shows that he realized that the process of climbing up is also a journey to seek himself in the depths.This is another obvious symbol: dreams are of the opposite nature to reality.

Gongsun Ce first stepped into the room in the capital of the sky, and saw a different side of his close friends.Sure enough, the friends also turned into the opposite of their usual appearance, showing the "inner side" of impressions and prejudices.They all look like monsters but are not malicious, which shows that he trusts his friends and understands the absurdity of the big environment of the capital of the sky, and also regards it as the surface side of daily life.His friends advised him to stay, which was naturally his own resistance to the deep heart.

Then he met his elder brother.The upright Mo Yuankai has been hiding in the dark, which is of course the opposite of what he usually does.In the tunnel, he saw a false aura in the form of a torch, which was equivalent to the outer shell of a small book, an illusion created by himself.Mo Yuankai said that he had to look in a mirror to enter the depths, which means...

"Miss Elandia, what do people see in the mirror?"

"See yourself."

Yes, see yourself.He went to the heart from a dream, trying to find his true self, so he must have the courage to face his heart.Now that he sees his negative nature, but fails to find the light, it means his journey is not over yet.

Gongsun Ce has stepped into the deepest layer of the dream.He asked himself, what should he do after facing his heart?
He touched the deer hat on his head.Why not treat it as a case?Now he has found an unknown book, a "fan", what he should do is...

"Find the reason for this book." Gongsun Ce muttered to himself, "Find the reason why it has no words."

If Gongsun Ce had only nothingness in his heart, then what he found in the end would be a stack of blank paper, a ball of air, or other things that have no content.

The appearance of this thing is a book, and the book must have content, even if it is just a title.

The young man jumped up from the bed and said excitedly, "Where am I, Elandia?"

The Dawn Knight answered fluently: "In your past residence."

"An old house with a family of three. You shouldn't be here, I should be here, who else should be here?"

"your family."

He grabbed the books, pushed the door out, and led the silver-haired woman into the empty living room.The wall clock on the wall shows the current time. At 5:[-] pm, Gongsun Ce's parents are still working outside, so of course they will not return home.

According to the usual logic, the search for truth requires finding out what happened in the past.But here is a dream, and he has to interpret the logic in the order of the dream.He remembered the process of coming here, and suddenly realized.

"To get to the top, you need to dive into the abyss. To trace the past, you have to look to the future."

Gongsun Ce took off the clock and turned the hands: "Advance the time and see what happened here in the past!"

The minute hand turned round and round, and the air in the old meeting room suddenly became blurred, and three illusory shadows appeared in a place that should have been empty.The shadows gathered around the dining table, discussing something seriously. When the clock pointed to 07:30, the shadows completely solidified, and the sounds and movements also appeared.

This time Gongsun Ce saw clearly.Inside the room were his parents...

And himself as a child.
