"How did you end up like this?"
Diwu Yun, who hadn't seen her for a long time, walked into the hut and was shocked to see Wang Yan's condition. Even though she heard Xiao Douzi's description, she still didn't expect Wang Yan to be this weak. Behind Diwu Yun, a group of people came in. Linghu Wan, Xiao Douzi, Bai Moli, and even Li Mo came.
"How did you end up like this?"
Linghu Wan was also shocked. Even though she was unhappy that Wang Yan left her behind, she was still very concerned. After two months, when Wang Yan saw Linghu Wan again, he didn't feel the same throbbing as before. Even when facing Xiao Douzi, Bai Moli, and even Diwu Yun, Wang Yan's heart became a lot more indifferent. It was all because of the 'empty self'.
"It's fine."
Wang Yan waved his hand and said impatiently: "You guys go out first, I have something to talk to Miss Diwu."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Linghu Wan's expression darkened, Bai Moli lowered her head, and little bean was at a loss. As for Li Mo, the little devil, he said without hesitation: "What? We heard that you were injured, so we came to see you out of goodwill, but you drove them away without saying a single good word. Hmph."
Facing these people's reactions, Wang Yan didn't want to say anything. He just closed his eyes. Seeing this, Diwu Yun turned around and said: "You guys go out first. Big brother Wang's condition isn't too good right now. He must have something important to tell me."
"Did I do something wrong again?"
Xiao Douzi lowered her head and her eyes were red. She knew that her master didn't say anything, but she called everyone over and ended up like this. Seeing this, Bai Moli patted her head, held Xiao Douzi's little hand and walked out. Linghu Wan did not say anything, turned around and left quietly.
Instantly, only Wang Yan and Diwu Yun were left in the small shabby house. Wang Yan immediately opened his eyes and went straight to the point. "You once told me that self-nature is the foundation of the soul. A person's personality, likes and dislikes, and so on are all derived from self-nature. It is the core of one's personality, the key to harmonizing, unifying, and integrating all parts of a person. Only a healthy person can have self-nature, right?"
"Yes!"
Diwu Yun didn't understand why Wang Yan suddenly asked about this, but she still gave a definite answer. However, upon hearing this answer, Wang Yan shook his head and said, "But I feel that I don't have self-nature, or rather, my self-nature is incomplete."
Hearing this, Diwu Yun was not surprised at all. Instead, his eyes brightened, "Why do you say that? What did you discover?"
"I discovered another me. I call it 'Empty Self'. Perhaps this description is not accurate enough. A more accurate way to say it is that 'Empty Self' is the original soul of this body. Even though this soul is blank and has no self-consciousness, it is like a pair of cold eyes watching from the side. Using your words, 'Empty Self' carries the instructions of the program and then quietly watches the cycle of this body. "
Diwu Yun was surprised, but she didn't say much. She only said with interest, "And then?"
"If that was all, I wouldn't have too many questions. However, although 'Empty Self' has no self-consciousness, it will follow the body's instincts and react outside of the instruction program."
"Are you sure it's outside of the instruction program?"
Diwu Yun instantly grasped the key point. Wang Yan nodded and said, "Even though I still don't understand what the instruction program means, if I look at it as a kind of will, this will itself only sets the cycle of my body's life. It doesn't give me emotions or other changes.
I used the secret technique of Aojian Villa to enter my own world and look back on my memories, and I did discover this. For example, 'I' used to repeatedly mine in the Iron Cave every day. Every day, people would laugh at 'me'. Perhaps this is also a kind of setting, but at first 'I' didn't react at all. However, as time went by, I gradually became angry, and the daily work also made my body tired. After a long period of accumulation of fatigue and anger towards the ridicule, 'I' began to get tired of the repetitive mining in the Iron Cave. I wanted to make a change, and finally, the current me was born. "
Diwu Yun was completely shocked. She murmured, "How surprising. You actually used the program in the game to find the reason for your birth. You are the most incredible … life I've ever seen."
"What life?"
Wang Yan suddenly stared at Diwu Yun. He felt that Diwu Yun seemed to have said something important, but she didn't say anything important. Therefore, Wang Yan immediately asked urgently. However, Diwu Yun said, "This is about the type of life. Are you sure you want to know now? Can you understand it? Will it make you more confused? Did you forget Mother Dragon's warning? "
Wang Yan shook his head. Of course, I didn't forget what happened in Ming Zheng Tang. He knew that his current knowledge was still very limited. He couldn't even understand the instruction program, let alone the essence of the world and the essence of life. What he was most concerned about now was' Empty Self '. He then said, "I call the current me, which is the collective self-consciousness, the' Original Self '. From what I learned in my own world, the' Original Self 'is derived from' Empty Self '. In other words, the' Original Self 'is born from' Empty Self '.
I originally thought that my consciousness was completely autonomous and not affected by anything, but now I feel confused. This is because I'm obviously greatly affected by 'Empty Self'. Although 'Empty Self' doesn't have an autonomous consciousness, it can clearly feedback its instincts to me, causing my autonomous consciousness to greatly deviate.
Under this influence, I feel that my Self is not complete, because most of the time I'm completely controlled by 'Empty Self'. "
"For example?"
"Linghu Wan. I've only known her for a short time, but when I found out that she and I are the same kind, I inexplicably wanted to protect her for the rest of my life. There's no 'Original Self' in this, it's' Empty Self 'completely controlling me from the perspective of my body's instincts.
For example, when I was in the Shujian Zhuang, someone mocked me, and I didn't even think about it before pulling out my sword to kill him.
There are many other examples, just like you. The first time I saw you, I had a good impression of you. "
Wang Yan didn't try to hide anything and spoke his mind. Right now, he was at his most perplexed. All he wanted was for someone to give him some pointers.
Diwu Yun's face turned slightly red, but she quickly put on a serious expression and said, "Is this why you were so cold before? You're not sure if your emotions belong to 'Original Self' or 'Empty Self'. Do you think that you should be an independent consciousness that can't be affected by anything? Is it because of this confusion that you think that your Self is lacking and your personality is not complete? "
Although Diwu Yun's martial arts were sloppy and ordinary, she had a very clear understanding of this aspect and completely grasped Wang Yan's thoughts. Wang Yan nodded and said, "That's right."
Unexpectedly, Diwu Yun shook her head and said with a smile, "Actually, for a 'person' like me, your confusion doesn't exist. First of all, you have to understand that a person's Self isn't purely rational. It also has sensitive sensory antennae. Just like the likes and dislikes you mentioned before, do you think that liking or disliking someone is the result of rational thinking?
A person's emotions are extremely complicated. It's bound to be a mixture of reason and sensibility. It's impossible to completely separate them, especially love. You may not understand it now, but there's a saying that 'love is blind'. So, does it mean that people who fall in the river of love lose their self-awareness?
On the contrary, people need to experience all kinds of emotions and accept the baptism of emotions. Only then will their Self become more complete, their personality will become more complete, and their soul will become a complete body. A person who is obsessed with rationality or sensibility, or a madman, or someone who has transcended their Self — these people are not common, but they all exist.
As for your confusion, I think it's mainly because you're different from us. You've discovered the reason for your birth and witnessed the entire process. That's why you're confused and even paranoid that you must be a consciousness that can't be affected by anything.
I don't know whether your thoughts are right or wrong. After all, I don't understand your life form, and I don't know what your soul and consciousness are. If you were a person, your behavior would be a sign that your Self is constantly improving. But you are different from me, so I can't give you an answer.
But I think that since you came from this world, you should use the method of this world to find the answer to this question. "
Wang Yan could understand most of Diwu Yun's words. The most important thing was that he was completely sure that he and Linghu Wan were the same kind. They were different from the 'players'. Therefore, human logic, philosophy, and views might not be suitable for him. However, he still hoped that Diwu Yun could point out a way for him to find the answer.
"What way?"
Diwu Yun smiled and said, "See the heart, see the true self."
Wang Yan was not unfamiliar with this sentence. This sentence was mentioned in many summaries of internal cultivation methods. Wang Yan's eyes flashed as he thoughtfully repeated this sentence. In the end, his eyes became brighter and brighter as he said, "I came from nothingness, and my thoughts are stained with dust. I don't forget my original heart. Walking in the world of martial arts, I must be happy."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yan patted the edge of the bed with both of his hands, and his entire body immediately soared into the air. Then, he made a grabbing motion with his right hand, and the sand on the side of the bed immediately whistled up and fell into his hand. Then, Wang Yan struck out with his sword in the air, and three rays of sword light appeared. He said again, "Emptiness is not emptiness, I have no form, and the Dao is hard to find. Slash! "
