Chapter 406: Psychological Heart Sound Small Spiritual Pearl, Desire Desire Big Magic Pill
"He tempted me with benefits, and then showed off his family background, and finally revealed his real identity. He must have not noticed that I have any cultivation skills, and thought that I got a spirit by chance, so..."
Gu Qingyuan interrupted, "Let's skip this superficial argument and get to the point."
"The point is, with his kind of mentality, he will definitely be cannon fodder in the Wanfa Sect. Even if he is not, he will be treated as a straw bag. If he is still not authentic, then the so-called authentic Wanfa Sect and the entire Wanfa Sect are just good-for-nothings!" Wang Yansheng made the final decision.
"next."
Gu Qingyuan did not say whether the conclusion was right or wrong, he just changed the observation model.
"The masked man has an impure aura mixed with foul air. He must be a heretic or a demon. He can give a warning, which means he has good intentions and is not cruel enough. He followed me here, and he probably wanted to save people, but he couldn't hide it, which means he is not sure, or he has concerns, or he is a cautious person."
"Furthermore..."
……
"The conclusion is that this person is not qualified to be a member of the Demon Sect. His heart is not good enough nor evil enough. He is not strong enough nor vicious enough. He is probably just a cannon fodder in the Demon Sect. He just wants to be cautious and survive."
Wang Yansheng pulled up a smile and said, "If he is not in the Demon Sect, then he is just an ordinary person. I am quite used to it. But if he is in the Demon Sect, then he is just an idiot, a piece of dregs. It is better to die early and reincarnate early."
Gu Qingyuan still didn't comment: "Let's talk about the two people in the teahouse."
Wang Yansheng was stunned: "These two people, without any cultivation, are not bad-hearted, but lack courage. They are just ordinary mortals. They don't cause trouble, but they are afraid of trouble. But in the final analysis, they are still just running around for three meals a day."
"Then have you ever thought about why they insisted on staying here when the teahouse is not on a major traffic route?" Gu Qingyuan asked.
"Although the woman's outer layer was a coarse linen shirt, the inner layer that was exposed by her body looked much finer. Her fingers had calluses, and the color of the knuckles on her index finger was a little different. She must have been wearing jewelry, but she took it off. Why?"
Gu Qingyuan asked one question after another, looking at Wang Yansheng: "Is it because of the presence of two cultivators, Dugu Bo and Masked Guest, that you focused on them and ignored the details of the two ordinary people?"
Wang Yansheng took a step back, his cold eyes gradually showing emotion. He then heard Gu Qingyuan say, "If those two were powerful beings in disguise, how would you tell them apart? What if they were true cultivators with higher cultivation than you who were hiding their auras and waiting for an opportunity to take your life?"
Gu Qingyuan looked at him and said, "I teach you how to judge people so that you can discern the details of the people around you. In this regard, this skill is more useful than the method of heavenly secrets."
He raised a finger: "Every experience will leave a mark. When a person is bitten by a vicious dog, when he grows up and faces a big dog, he will still have subtle movements and facial expressions to respond."
“As for a powerful Dharmakāya, no matter how realistically he acts and how well he fits his identity, when his consciousness awakens, the thoughts of the powerful will take over, and his words and actions will definitely have traces. After all, even if he has all the memories of the Dharmakāya, that person is not him after all, and he cannot put himself into the role wholeheartedly. This is the flaw.”
"Taoists respect the heavens, monks worship Buddha, demons are bloodthirsty, and orthodox sects are arrogant. Many details converge into a person's roots. Their roots are in the open. Of course, this method is only useful for fools. If you encounter someone who has carefully calculated and pretended to be a Taoist master, you will only be dazzled by false information. It is better to break all the methods with one's own strength."
“So you must first learn not to believe. Don’t believe how smart you are, don’t believe that others are really stupid, don’t believe everything you deduce, and don’t believe everything others say. Keep an independent heart.”
Gu Qingyuan looked at Wang Yansheng who nodded repeatedly and smiled slightly: "For example, the two people in the teahouse just now were just nonsense. There are not so many traces. They are just two ordinary people. Those things are fabricated by me."
Wang Yansheng's eyes froze, and Gu Qingyuan spread his hands: "But you still believed it," he looked into Wang Yansheng's eyes, "Who told you that I would not lie to you, and who told you that everything you experienced was not a big plan I set up?"
Wang Yansheng swallowed his saliva, and the indifference in his eyes disappeared, returning to a look of affection. Before he could ask a question, Gu Qingyuan turned around and looked into the distance.
"When those two maids killed our fake bodies, they looked at each other. We know that they were there to clean up the mess for Dugu Bo. In order to protect the reputation of the original, they killed you and me. So you might as well think about it. For the reputation of their own master, how far can they go?"
Wang Yansheng followed Gu Qingyuan's gaze, and thought of something. His face changed drastically and he ran out in a hurry.
"The demonic nature in Lingzhuzi's body is erupting more and more frequently. We need to let it form a demon fetus as soon as possible." Gu Qingyuan recalled Wang Yansheng's desireless and carefree appearance, and smiled slightly: "You are still too young to fight with me."
Inside the teahouse.
The tables, chairs and benches were all placed neatly in their original places, without any clutter. There was a small house next to the tea stall, which should be the resting place for the teahouse owner, and it was only covered by a thick curtain.
Wang Yansheng ran over in a hurry and saw that no one was at the stall. He quickly raised his hand to lift the curtain. Then he was stunned. There was nothing in the hut except a stove and a brick bed. The teahouse owner and his mute daughter were leaning on the edge of the bed, snuggling together, as if they were fast asleep.
But his keen perception told him that the two men were already dead and had no chance of survival, and the attackers were none other than Dugu Bo's two maids! It was because they had seen the conflict between him and the young master!
Wang Yansheng collapsed to the ground, feeling indescribable grievance and sorrow in his heart. Gu Qingyuan manipulated him and infused him with a demonic nature. All the negative emotions were swept away by the demonic nature, leaving only his pure and kind nature.
Good is the spirit bead, evil is the magic pill, the two were originally one, but now they are separated. When good thoughts prevail, he is the most kind-hearted good man in the world. When the evil nature is exposed, he is the heartless and forgetful demon who slaughters all living things. The good is clear and the evil is extreme.
"How is it? Do you still feel complacent about your God-given fate, and feel that you are superior to others? Are you at peace with the fact that two lives were lost due to a moment of negligence?"
Gu Qingyuan appeared behind him and said cruelly and bluntly that he had taught this Tianmingzi too well, and that he had a sharp mind and the ability to observe people, so he could detect all kinds of clues and vaguely guess part of the truth.
But being smart is not a fault. The arrogance and pride that came from the youthful spirit made Gu Qingyuan feel a little uncomfortable. Serious illnesses require strong medicine to treat!
"Sir, Master, Immortal, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, can you please save them?" Shannian Lingzhuzi pulled Gu Qingyuan's sleeve and begged.
Gu Qingyuan pulled back his sleeves and said coldly: "Why? On what basis?" "Why do you think I have to save them? Because I look like a good person, and good people should be pointed at with guns? Why do you think I should save them? Just because you called me sir and master a few times?"
"And why did you take the blame on yourself? Could you have avoided this disaster if you had handed over the Cricket God? Wouldn't Dugu Bo continue to silence people for fear of revealing the secret?"
"You can save her the first time, but what about the second time, and the third time? There will always be times when you are not here, right?"
Wang Yansheng remained silent. After a while, he said, "I...I'm going to kill Dugu Bo!"
"Ah."
Gu Qingyuan sneered: "So you finally gave me this answer, to stop killing with killing, but where is your kindness? Do you know what the consequences will be when you resort to violence?"
He looked into Wang Yansheng's eyes and said, "Let me tell you, once you start killing people, there will be endless enemies coming to find you. You will slaughter the Dugu family and the Wanfa Sect, and above the Wanfa Sect, there is also the Shangzong. By then, the good, the vicious, the righteous, and the evil will all be swept up in the turmoil you have created and fall into the killing calamity."
"collapse!"
Gu Qingyuan opened his hands: "A grand fireworks display, blowing everyone to pieces, reshuffling the entire cultivation world, and you, as an important chess piece, decided the outcome of Taoism, Demons, and Buddhas, but unfortunately, this outcome is certain, and was decided by someone a long time ago. Are you sure you have the ability to shoulder all of this? Do you have the courage to bear all of this?"
"Yes, who is it?" Wang Yansheng asked in a low voice.
"Cause and effect, fate, heaven, or the way of heaven," Gu Qingyuan said, "and all of this is predetermined. The way of heaven controls everything, whether it is people, objects, Tao, demons, etc., they are all within the law of cause and effect. As soon as a person is born, his fate is determined, and the space for maneuvering will only become smaller and smaller as the way of heaven becomes stronger, and finally become a fixed number."
"so……"
"Tell me," Gu Qingyuan looked at Wang Yansheng, "my most proud disciple, my most gifted student, what is your choice?"
Wang Yansheng seemed to be oppressed and couldn't breathe. He glanced at the two teahouse owners and asked: "Will they live better?"
"Not necessarily," Gu Qingyuan shook his head, "maybe better, maybe worse, but they will have choices, the freedom to choose, instead of having their death determined at birth."
"Haha," Wang Yansheng laughed, "Screw the laws of nature, screw the cause and effect."
Gu Qingyuan smiled and turned his back: "I have taught you a lot of things. The method of judging people is only the most basic knowledge. This subject is vast and boundless. You can call it psychology, or the mind of the emperor, or the insight into the world."
"It is a tool for you to use your own eyes to observe other people's hearts. You will use it to understand other people's desires, demands, and intentions. You will find the flaws and weaknesses of their hearts and know what they really want."
He slowly clenched his palms: "Then, take control!"
“Giving money to the poor, giving rest to the busy, and giving affection to those who crave love are all superficial things, material things.”
"I put them together and divided them into two categories, one is emotion and the other is value. You can understand their emotions and assign a value to each behavior. When the two are combined, it is the emotional value."
“People don’t care about what you do, they only care about how they feel. Even if you don’t give anything, just a small gesture can make them feel respected. Then you can ask for rewards, ask for value, and control it.”
"And this is what you can rely on in this catastrophe. This support will not be me, nor will it be the sect you will join in the future, your teachers, relatives and friends, because under the control of the Heavenly Dao, anyone can betray you. The only one you can rely on is yourself, and all of this needs another thing to support it."
Wang Yansheng slowly uttered two words: "Power."
"Yes, power. When you are strong enough, you will experience an incomparable experience. If you are really strong enough, it will be no problem to smash the Heavenly Dao with one punch and break free from the shackles of cause and effect. And you, with your identity as the Son of Destiny, are destined to make the Heavenly Dao place a heavy bet on you, pushing you to become stronger, so as to realize his demands. The power that others have been longing for is within your reach. And in the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, you are also the chess piece that will least betray you." Gu Qingyuan nodded and said.
"When I said the first sentence, I blocked Tiandao's perception. Even if he is conscious, he can't perceive what you and I said. And if he has no subjective consciousness, he will only lose more miserably."
Gu Qingyuan still did not go to see Wang Yansheng: "I teach you to perceive thoughts and understand your inner voice. It is not appropriate to call it psychology in general, because I added too many things that do not belong to this discipline. However, these things are also the essence of the cultivation world. I just improved them.
Rather than psychology, it is more like a method of practice to observe the slightest details, emotions, desires, and the sounds of the heart. If you want to practice in depth, you will eventually become a great demon, a demon of desire, because by then, no one can escape the punishment of desire. You will control a person according to the desires in their heart, and your identity as the son of destiny is bound to arouse the desires of countless people.
Because they are greedy, greedy for your luck, destiny, and fortune. They have a request, they want to improve their practice and make their sect prosperous, so they have desires, and if they have desires, they may be deceived by you. Of course, the cornerstone of all this is that you have not been crushed to ashes by the way of heaven, and at the same time, a little bit of talent is needed. "He opened his two fingers slightly and continued.
"The psychology I teach you is a subject that helps you see through disguises. At the same time, it is also a subject of performance. Only after you have a deep understanding of people's hearts, you will understand how to disguise yourself vividly, what is a real performance, and how a real person's words and deeds should be, rather than an immortal god wearing a Dharma body and performing a clumsy drama."
“When the performance is perfected, a real person is born, because the performer has deceived himself and believes from beginning to end that he is that person, so he will not make any mistakes and will not do anything unnecessary.”
Gu Qingyuan finally turned around: "You have done very well in this regard, my other student."
"Magic Pill."
Wang Yansheng's sorrowful face revealed a happy smile: "Sir, you taught me well. Also, I am Wang Yansheng, not Mowan, from the beginning to the end."
"Very good, keep it up. I look forward to seeing you stab Tiandao in the back."
