Chapter 75 Self Suggestion
? East Chester County, in the estate of the Hall family.
Audrey sat in front of the dressing table and lit a candle.
Then, she looked at herself in the mirror through the slightly flickering firelight, her green eyes gradually deepened, making it impossible to move her eyes away, as if even the soul wanted to sink into them.
"Audrey, stay awake in the dream tonight." She said to herself softly.
This is a simple "psychological suggestion".
The old song she heard at dusk inspired her to explore her dreams, to see if she could gain access to the subconscious sea and spiritual sky of all living things.
This is an attempt that other "psychologists" have never thought of. At least there is no similar thing in the reference experience provided by the "Psychological Alchemy Association"-suggesting yourself and exploring your own dreams.
Maybe we can find traces of the mind dragon, or even the "City of Miracles" Levished... Audrey looked away, took off the "lie" that turned into a ruby necklace, and put it into the jewelry box.
She was afraid that this magical item that could amplify emotions would affect herself in the dream and cause unnecessary harm, so she handled it cautiously in advance.
After doing all this, Audrey subconsciously looked at herself in the glasses, and found that there was a little flaw in her appearance.
And when she was wearing "lie", she felt that her beauty made her obsessed.
"Wake up, Audrey, that's just a lie!" She raised her right palm and stroked her cheek.
At this time, she was very thankful that she named the magical item "lie", and she would always be vigilant against it, otherwise one day she would be completely dependent on it and refused to face her true self. out of control.
"Those ordinary-looking girls wear 'lie' to modify their appearance, and after obtaining a near-perfect change, they may never take it off again, and would rather die than keep it... This corresponds to' Extraordinary, you can't have a similar mentality..." Audrey sighed and stood up.
Wearing a slippery silk nightgown, she walked briskly and expectantly in the warm spring-like room, returned to the soft, comfortable and elastically supported bed, and pulled a length of rope at the head of the bed.
The personal maid Annie opened the door and entered, and gently extinguished the lights.
It didn't take long,
Audrey really fell asleep.
In the misty world, she suddenly shuddered and realized that she was dreaming.
She looked around with great interest, and said silently to herself:
"This is the 'lucid dream' in psychology?
"In occultism, there is a similar concept.
"It's really effective. I relied on simple self-"psychological suggestion" and successfully had a "lucid dream". Audrey, you are such a genius~ No, no, no, no, this is mainly the application of extraordinary abilities, and I cannot be proud."
At this time, Audrey has figured out what the current dream is.
She was walking down a dark and narrow road, surrounded by dark forests, with a towering castle ahead.
The elongated howling of wolves, the slow and frightening panting, and the shrill and intermittent screams came from all directions, brewing a dangerous and depressing atmosphere.
I was still afraid of the assassination of Duke Negan. I was afraid that one day, many Beyonders would attack my father, mother, and elder brother... Audrey analyzed her dream from the perspective of a "psychologist".
She walked forward slowly, and in this unusually real dream, she walked towards the castle that was almost identical to the Hall family's ancestral home.
As he was walking, a figure suddenly appeared in the black forest. It was a giant dragon covered with golden scales, pale golden eyes standing upright, and a thick and sweeping tail.
The facial features of this giant dragon are exactly the same as Audrey's. Coupled with its body, there is an indescribable sense of awkwardness and horror!
Audrey was startled, and almost woke up from the dream. Fortunately, she, who had been an "audience", stabilized her emotions in time.
This made her understand that she never really forgot the thing that she almost lost control when she took the "Psychiatrist" potion. The self-consolation, self-motivation and improvement in mood at that time were just superficial, and the shadow has been rooted in the depths of the subconscious, and it will be reflected in dreams from time to time inside.
Fortunately, I discovered it today, and I can try to treat it subconsciously in the future. I am a "psychiatrist"! If you keep ignoring this question, when you advance to Sequence 6, you may lose control due to fear... Audrey seriously examined herself.
Stopping and going, Audrey's dreams change inconsequentially, which is not qualified for a story.
Finally, she walked in front of the castle, and saw a magic wand as long as an arm swept across the air, and sprinkled a little bit of brilliance like starlight.
The castle shrouded in light suddenly became majestic, and all the gloom disappeared completely.
The melody played by the band came from inside, and one gas wall lamp after another was lit up.
"This is my initial best expectation for extraordinary power... It's really a little girl's fantasy..." Audrey's mouth curled up, and her mood suddenly improved.
She didn't stop, crossed the castle, and walked towards the edge of this dream, regardless of how the scene behind it changed or how the story unfolded.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, she crossed the barren wilderness and came to the top of the cliff.
Looking outside, the gray void spreads, and the depth below seems to have no bottom.
Audrey clearly recognized that this was the boundary of her dream, once she left, she didn't know what would happen.
"And how should I leave? Jump down? Will I fall to my death..." Audrey thought in embarrassment, not too daring to take risks.
After thinking for tens of seconds, she slowly came up with an idea:
This is a dreamland, which originates from the spiritual world. As the master, I can create a path for myself with my will!
With the idea of trying, she tried to manifest what she thought in her heart just like she was above the gray fog. The only difference was that the former needed the strength of Mister Fool, but now she had to rely on herself.
Audrey stretched out her right hand and spread it downwards, aiming at the gray abyss.
In front of her, the gray mist suddenly surged, revealing a ladder that spread down layer by layer but could not see the end.
Audrey took a slow breath, lifted the hem of her skirt slightly, stepped forward, and stepped onto the first step.
As she went down step by step, the surroundings became more and more quiet, so quiet that people had auditory hallucinations.
Here is nothing but gray, still gray, nothing to see, lonely and unknown.
The whistling gust of wind was blowing in changing directions all the time, making Audrey's body shake, and her sense of fear slowly deepened.
Before she loses control of her emotions, a deep but gentle light shines from her green eyes, which seems to be able to read people's hearts.
Audrey comforted herself with the ability of "psychoanalysis"!
She continued to descend, and after dozens of seconds, a light spot suddenly lit up in the gray surroundings.
Audrey looked around cautiously, and saw that in the spot of light was a person who had just taken the potion and almost turned into a dragon monster. She was on the verge of losing control, and her worries, panic, fear, nervousness and other emotions were palpable.
"...This is my subconscious, this is my shadow?" Audrey vaguely understood where she had gone deep after leaving the dream.
She was not in a hurry to solve this shadow, and continued to go down step by step with full expectation.
According to the theory of "Psychological Alchemist", the bottom of the subconscious is her destination - the collective subconscious sea of all creatures!
In the process of descending, Audrey saw the self who listened to the legends told by her parents when she was a child, saw the self who valued her image but was not so elegant behind her back, and saw the self who participated in the Tarot Club, but she was just like the latter. The dots were all tightly wrapped in gray mist.
It's all something in my subconscious... that affects my personality and behavior? Audrey instinctively used psychological knowledge to analyze.
With different light spots flickering, she was on the verge of emotional collapse many times because of this long and lonely exploration without a goal, but she "pacified" herself with supernatural power in time.
Just when she was about to lose her sense of the passage of time, she saw the last step.
In front of the steps is a solid, fuzzy, gray "ground", above which are swaying and cruising light and shadow, they are dense, they overlap, like an illusory sea.
The collective subconscious ocean... Audrey took a few steps forward, looked up, and unexpectedly found that the "grey fog" no longer covered her sight, and the high sky clearly appeared.
There are countless indescribable figures, seven different colors of bright and pure brilliance that contain endless knowledge.
Audrey pursed her lower lips and said happily to herself:
"Spiritual sky."
Then, she walked forward cautiously and started her own adventure.
The lights and shadows that make up the ocean pass her eyes from time to time, some of them contain ancient memories of being burned by flames, and some of them carry the extreme pain of looking directly at the unspeakable things...
In addition to the imprints from ancient times and ancestors, Audrey also saw admiring eyes looking at her, and saw folk activities of worshiping dragons.
As she walked, she found a grayish-white mountain in the distance on the left side, which stretched upwards and drilled out of a sea of light and shadow. The top was shrouded in mist, clear and blurred.
Is that another person's consciousness? What is in the "ocean" is the subconscious mind, and what is beyond the surface is the normal consciousness? Well, he is dreaming... Audrey suddenly thought of a possible "psychologist" application technique, which is to move closer to him, climb up, and directly affect the other party's subconscious thoughts, so that he will naturally act according to his own arrangement .
But it should be very difficult and very dangerous... Audrey looked away and didn't try rashly.
She clearly remembered that this time she came to find the traces of the spiritual dragon and the "City of Miracles" Levished.
Audrey passed dozens of hundreds of other consciousnesses, and gradually felt tired.
"It's time to go back." She raised her head instinctively, looked into the distance, and made a rational decision.
She stood there, unwilling to leave for a long time.
When Audrey was about to turn around, a shadow suddenly appeared in midair.
Those are two huge, gray wings!
Under the wings, there is a slender lizard-like monster.
Its whole body is covered with gray-white stone-like huge scales, and it has four thick and powerful legs. It seems to be bathed in non-existent sunlight, shining like the afterglow of the setting sun.
This monster flew over, its eyes were pale gold, the pupils were straight, cold and proud.
Its grand and epic figure quickly disappeared into the subconscious ocean of all living things.
The dragon... the mind dragon! Audrey jumped on the spot, then looked left and right, afraid of being seen as unrefined and unmannered.
She paced excitedly, turning in a circle, very satisfied with her adventure.
Sure enough, the custom of worshiping dragons here is not without origin. There is a spiritual dragon living in their subconscious ocean... Audrey resisted the urge to praise herself, and decided to return immediately and wake up from her dream.
She has no urge to continue exploring, because she is completely unprepared for this. She plans to ask Mister Fool and Mr. Hanged Man at the Tarot meeting next week, hoping to get some advice.
Audrey returned the same way and entered the "mountain" formed by her own consciousness. Then, she woke herself up and successfully escaped from the dream.
…………
At this time, Danitz was also allowed to return to the room.
He glanced at Gehrman Sparrow, and said with a sneer:
"You're sure you're not going to tell anyone what you just saw, are you?"
