Inside The Black Mist Chapter 700: Anchor of self
"A monster that feeds on memory, my God, there is such a thing in the reverse world...."
After listening to Tianyang's narration, Kaoru was sincerely moved. The girl closed her eyes, organized her thoughts, and opened her eyes again after a while, smiling like a flower.
"I see, now, let's start the treatment."
"First, you relax and imagine yourself lying on a light boat..."
Xun's voice is soft, like the wind, blowing slowly.
Lying on the easy chair, Tianyang closed his eyes, relaxed his body and mind, and let himself gradually immerse himself in a peaceful atmosphere.
"Now, how do you feel?"
Kun began to give psychological guidance.
Tianyang breathed calmly, and said softly: "I feel confused, in the 'spirit swallowing insect'. Well, the name I gave to that kind of monster. In the spirit swallowing insect, a large number of memories belonging to others are forced into me behind his head."
"Although I know who I am, when I relax, I feel in a trance."
"Just like now."
"I know that I am Tianyang, from the lower city, and I became a sublimator last year."
"But I have a feeling, as if, this life is just an artificially imposed 'experience'. It is only clearer than other 'memories', but in essence, they seem to be the same."
Speaking of this, Tianyang clenched his fist unconsciously: "But I know, this is wrong. I am who I am, and this is the problem."
"I know it's an illusion, but I can't convince myself..."
"It's okay."
Xun held the boy's hand, smiled and said, "I can assure you, you are Tianyang, you are yourself, not someone else."
"You only experience cognitive confusion because you are forced into too many memories belonging to others. I admit that if this situation is not intervened in time and treated in time, over time, you will Lost."
"But don't worry, I'm here, I can heal you, I won't let anything happen to you."
Hearing Xun's affirmative tone, Tianyang unknowingly relaxed, and a smile spread from the corner of his mouth.
"I know."
"I trust you."
"So I came to you."
Xun patted the back of his hand lightly, and said in a cheerful and sunny tone: "Actually, this kind of slight cognitive confusion is very easy to treat. You just need to keep giving yourself one stage goal after another."
"These phased goals must be something you can accomplish in a short period of time. For example, today I will eat a dish of fried fish, and tomorrow I will read a book."
"Every time you complete a goal, set yourself the next one. By repeating this, you will continue to complete these goals. In this process, you will continue to affirm yourself and strengthen your cognition."
"After a period of time like this, your sense of confusion that you can't tell who you are will naturally disappear."
Tianyang with his eyes closed said softly: "Really? It's that simple?"
Xun nodded and responded: "Your situation is like a rushing river of memory, which suddenly swept over you when you were caught off guard."
"You are like a light boat being carried away by the rapids. You can't stop and go with the flow. If you don't want to stop on the river, you will be carried away and finally drown in the river."
"So at this time, you need one thing."
"Anchor!"
Tianyang murmured, "Anchor?"
Xun nodded and said: "Yes, the anchor will allow you to fix the boat so that you will not be carried away on the turbulent river."
"Setting staged goals for yourself is to cast a 'self-anchor' on the river of memory. When you complete one goal after another, your self-awareness will continue to sink, and your anchor It will get heavier and heavier."
"In the end, no matter how turbulent the river is, it can't take away the light boat on the river. And when you become more and more sure of yourself, those memories that have been forced in will gradually fade and eventually disappear without affecting to you."
Tianyang breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, feeling that his tense spirit was relieved.
"I see."
"Then I'm relieved."
He opened his eyes, looked at the girl who was close at hand, and said sincerely: "Thank you, Kaoru."
"You're welcome, but in addition to what you just said, you have to take your medicine on time."
Xun stood up: "I will prescribe some medicine to soothe your spirit and calm your emotions. You have to follow the doctor's advice and take the medicine on time."
"In addition, you must rest on the base vehicle for a week, and come to chat with me every day."
"A week later, if I feel that you are basically back to normal, you can return to the team, understand?"
Tianyang said seriously: "I listen to you, doctor."
Xun laughed, and prescribed the medicine for him, stating the dosage and usage, before letting him go.
The girl looked at another boy again.
"Now it's your turn."
Kunlan pointed to Tianyang who just went out and said, "I'm the same as Baimao, so I don't need to chat with you. I'll also set a staged goal for myself, just prescribe me medicine."
Xun said with a straight face: "Do you think I am that kind of irresponsible doctor?"
"Everyone's psychological state is different, even if you have the same experience, but because of the growth environment, temperament and other external factors, it will lead to different psychological barriers."
"If you still want to receive treatment, please cooperate with me."
Kun Lan was overwhelmed by the girl's aura, so she could only walk towards the easy chair with a helpless face: "Okay, you are a doctor, I will listen to you."
After leaving the consulting room, Tianyang first reported Xun's diagnosis to Liang Sen and got a week's vacation.
Putting down the communicator and standing at the fork in the aisle, Tianyang was a little dazed again. As if I was in a certain place, in a certain hospital, as I am now, standing at the fork of the aisle feeling confused, not knowing where to go.
He even heard phantom cries.
Tianyang quickly shook his head vigorously to wake himself up, and then followed Xun's instructions to set a goal for himself.
Go to the restaurant for a great meal!
He immediately took action and headed to the small restaurant in the multipurpose car.
After ordering food, he was just seated when someone sat across from him.
Tianyang was stunned for a moment, it turned out to be Zhang Dongcheng.
He smiled and said with a smile: "Long time no see, I heard that you have conflicts with the church, are you okay?"
Tianyang shook his head: "It was resolved smoothly."
"That's good."
Zhang Dongcheng suddenly slapped his head: "By the way, you don't mind if I sit here?"
You have already sat down... Tianyang shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he doesn't mind.
Soon the dishes ordered by the two arrived, Zhang Dongcheng picked up the chopsticks and started eating.
He honestly picked up the food ordered by Tianyang, and asked while eating: "I heard that you used to live in the lower city?"
Tianyang hummed, and didn't rush to eat. He drank a bowl of thick soup first, feeling the warmth in his body, dispelling the coldness.
"I often go to the lower city, where do you live, maybe I have been there before."
Tianyang quietly sized up the man opposite, seeing Zhang Dongcheng's unnatural expression, he couldn't help thinking about it.
Is he playing tricks on me? Why is he doing this?
Is it because of Su Lie?
He is with Yin Qi, so he should have no malice towards Su Lie. Hmm, is he testing my relationship with Su Lie?
"I live in Shadow Street, but our family is in the downtown area, and we have changed residences several times."
Tianyang took a mouthful of rice, picked up a vegetable, and put it in his mouth.
Zhang Dongcheng put down the bowl and chopsticks, a little surprised: "Your family, this, who else is in your family?"
"Parents."
Tianyang stopped moving, with a sad face: "However, they are all gone. My father left when I was eight years old, and my mother last year."
Of course Zhang Dongcheng knew what 'gone' meant, so he quickly said, "Sorry, I reminded you of something unpleasant."
Tianyang shook his head and began to eat again: "It doesn't matter, as long as I live well, they will be happy, they will be happy."
"Yeah."
Zhang Dongcheng put a piece of steak on his own plate and put it in Tianyang's bowl: "You eat more, eat more, your parents will be happy."
"Okay."
The meal is over.
Zhang Dongcheng left.
Tianyang said softly 'sorry' in his heart, he didn't want Su Lie's former friends to get involved in danger because of him.
Before that.
Liu Jinglin is dead.
Zuo Mohan is also dead.
He didn't want anything to happen to Zhang Dongcheng and Yin Qi, so he deliberately misled the information.
Outside the restaurant, Zhang Dongcheng bit a toothpick, walked and stopped.
Beside the aisle, Yin Qi leaned against the wall and glanced at him lightly: "How is it?"
Zhang Dongcheng scratched his hair and said, "Maybe that kid has nothing to do with the captain."
"How?"
Zhang Dongcheng smiled wryly: "He has parents. His father passed away when he was 8 years old, and his mother just passed away last year."
"So what?"
Yin Qi said unmoved: "At that time, we only knew that the captain fell in love with a commoner woman in the upper city and had a child."
"But we have never known the identity of the captain's beloved wife. The captain wanted to give us a surprise, and this matter has been kept secret from us."
"As a result, the surprise did not come, and that happened...."
"In short, it is possible that the commoner woman fled to the lower city with the captain's flesh and blood. And found another man. The so-called father of the child may be his adoptive father."
Looking at his companion, Zhang Dongcheng sighed: "After so many years, you still can't let go."
Yin Qi sneered: "Can you let it go?"
Zhang Dongcheng looked helpless: "I can't let go of that, it's a bit different from yours."
Yin Qi rolled his eyes at him: "Anyway, don't draw conclusions too early. Continue to observe, but please be careful. Next time, don't be so ostentatious in contact with that child."
"Gu Yun is in the car, you don't want him to connect Tian Yang with the captain, do you?"
Zhang Dongcheng's expression immediately turned ferocious, he just laughed and didn't speak.
