Chapter 869 Hint
I've never heard of anyone needing a mirror to look for something, but Aries must have something of his own to say that.
Although this thing is not easy to find, I still managed to find a small powder box the next day. This powder box looks very avant-garde, and it is even from a brand I have never heard of.
This thing was left in a small building, but it was still usable.
That shows that this thing did not appear when the city appeared, but appeared with the "participants".
This place records the state of this girl when she was wearing cosmetics, which shows that she will have cosmetics every time she is born. I even envy her a little.
When I found Aries with a powder box with a small mirror, he was sitting at the door reading a book.
It seems that as he said, he actually got the book from the earth snake first.
Seeing me coming, he closed the book, raised his head and looked at me: "Have you found the mirror?"
I nodded, took out the small powder box and handed it to him.
"So small...?" Aries took the box and opened it in confusion, "Is this cosmetics?"
"Well, large mirrors are harder to find, and most of them are broken, but this one works."
Aries picked up the mirror and looked at it carefully, then murmured to himself: "It's a pity... you can only see my eyes."
"What?" I asked, "Is this mirror too small?"
"No, it's because I'm wearing a mask." Aries replied, "It's a pity...it seems I have to find a way to be promoted as soon as possible."
I was really confused after hearing this.
"Brother Yang... what exactly do you want to do?" I threw out the doubts in my mind, "Isn't your ultimate goal to forget that you are a human being? What does it have to do with the "motive to go out"? What does it have to do with the mirror? relation?"
Aries thought for a while and said to me: "The reason is very complicated. I think if you really want to "forget that you are a human being", you must make yourself a real, flesh-and-blood, and connected person. Use these I build the most powerful psychological defense line in my heart, and then use the most terrifying method to destroy it all in one day. If I don’t have a mental breakdown, then I will be beyond human beings.”
Okay, I admit that this method is so abstract that I can't even imagine it.
"What about the mirror?" I asked again.
"Mirror..." Aries lowered his head, looked at the small mirror in his hand, and said, "I... have something to say to myself, so I need a mirror."
"If you have something to say to yourself..." I blinked, feeling a little bad, "So you want to be promoted to the "prefectural level" as soon as possible... The reason is that you want to..."
"I want to see my expression." Aries turned his head and looked at me with the withered sheep face mask, "The way I look now means that I can only see my own eyes. The success rate is too low. I need to capture every microexpression of mine.”
"But what is the purpose of capturing micro-expressions?" I asked again.
"I need to understand myself." Aries replied, "Do you know about hypnosis?"
"I...have heard of it," I replied, "but "hypnosis" is at best a type of "suggestion"...its practicality is far less powerful than what it appears in the movie."
"Yes, but it does have a potential impact on a person, but I have protected myself now." Aries stretched out his hand and tugged on his mask, "The most important prerequisite for "hypnosis" is to completely trust the hypnotist , but no one will believe a hypnotist wearing a mask.”
I seem to finally know what Aries is going to do... is he going to hypnotize himself?
"So I want to be promoted to the "prefecture level" as soon as possible." Aries said again, "This way I can have expressions, and I can also give myself powerful psychological hints by observing every micro-expression of myself."
I was about to nod my head when I heard this, but suddenly I felt creepy.
It seems...something's not quite right.
After becoming "earth level"...then observe your own micro-expressions?
"Wait...wait a minute...Brother Sheep." My voice became hoarse, "After you become "earth level"...you no longer have human expressions, your face will turn into a cold sheep. ”
"Even if it is a sheep face, it must have micro-expressions." Aries said, "I will look at the sheep face to strengthen my psychological cues."
I think this is a bit too scary... No matter what psychological hints Aries wants to give themselves... But if you are facing the face of an Aries... and you have to constantly observe the expression of this sheep...
Then the biggest psychological hint he can receive is "I am a sheep."
"etc……"
I was stunned again.
Isn't this... just right...?
This is what Aries wanted to achieve from the beginning... Could it be that the psychological suggestion he used the mirror to give himself was "I am not a human being"?
I racked my brains to predict what Aries was going to do, but I always felt like something was missing.
Since then basically every time I've been here, Aries has held that mirror and talked to himself.
I'm even afraid that he will go crazy before he gets psychological hints.
According to him, his life is now filled with three things: talking to himself, playing games, and reading books.
He had achieved the first step in becoming free from humanity, which was to lose sleep.
Now he will stay up all night reading and feels that he has twice as much time as others.
And because we are all in the state of dead souls, when we start to believe that we are not human beings, we really don’t feel tired after being awake for a long time, but we are not sure how long we can last.
As for "eating", it is a more difficult problem to solve. Aries said that every time he returns to the "train", almost all the "zodiac signs" are eating, and the entire "train" will be filled with the feeling of "hungry" at this time. It is indeed difficult to not be affected by the atmosphere at all.
In this atmosphere, Aries has obviously hinted that he is "not human" countless times, but he still feels hungry, so he will still choose to continue eating - eating the air.
Aries also told me that the seemingly sumptuous delicacies on the "train" are not actually satiating, and almost all come from the "echo" as a deception.
Some food is made of sand, and some food is the illusion of nothing. Every day, a large number of "train conductors" will deliver these foods to the "zodiac sign" room.
To put it bluntly, the biggest purpose of these foods is to make you perform the "eating" action and thus think that you are "full."
This is like raising livestock. It seems that "Tianlong" has raised all the "zodiac signs" on the "train" as real animals from the beginning. He also knows from the beginning the "subconscious" attitude towards these people. Influence.
