The meal was over.
Lin Dong went underground alone while everyone was resting. The construction of the underground river house wasn't complete yet, but it was located a thousand meters underground. It was hidden enough.
He took out the flower box from his storage ring and summoned Young Man Hua Granny.
For a moment.
The light shone brightly.
An indescribable fragrance filled the air, refreshing the mind.
Young Man Hua Granny made her grand entrance once again. Lin Dong was used to her exaggerated and flashy entrance.
"You're in trouble again? Lin Dong, don't worry. With Ancestor Granny around, she won't stand by and watch you get bullied by outsiders! Tsk tsk tsk, look at your current mental state. It's really miserable. Aiyaya, Granny's heart aches when I see you! " Young Man Hua Granny said. She spread out her small hands, "One question for a thousand power of faith!"
"Five hundred!" Lin Dong knew that he shouldn't be soft-hearted when bargaining with Young Man Hua Granny.
"You still have time to waste with Granny?" Young Man Hua Granny snorted.
"Forget it!" Lin Dong had the power of faith in his hands, so he was confident.
"You're too much to Granny's liking. Alright, who asked Granny to lack the power of faith! But I'll say this first. You have to ask at least two questions. I won't even speak for one! "Young Man Hua Granny had a personality. She didn't care about anything less than a thousand power of faith.
"The first question is, I want to know why someone placed a chain in my mind even though I was already paying attention to my defense. And no matter how I tried to break it, I couldn't get rid of the restraint! "Lin Dong asked quickly.
"That's not a chain. It's a special dream door. You passed through the dream door and were affected by the various information in the dream. That's why you became like this. Dream and reality? This was hard to explain. The composition of a dream was very complicated. It was made up of a lot of information and was affected by different things in different spaces. It could be a future more advanced than reality, the past, or other space-time. Some had nothing to do with you, but were reflected in your dream. Some were closely related to you, but you didn't recognize them and felt confused. Sometimes, when you feel that you have done something before, you might have done it in a dream. Some people, when you see them for the first time, but they feel very familiar, you might have known them in a dream, but when you come back to reality, they are strangers. A dream was not a world, but the intersection of the consciousness of countless wonderful worlds. It was constantly changing, so people could not understand it no matter what. In order to protect oneself, a person's mind usually doesn't keep the memory of the dream. After people wake up, they forget the information in the dream. Some people don't forget it completely, and there's still a little bit of memory left. In a daze, it forms a strange dream state. "Grandma Young Man Hua was really knowledgeable. She knew what was going on when she saw Lin Dong's situation.
"But some dreams are very absurd. Why is that?" Lin Dong asked.
"Well, first of all, I have to explain something. A person has countless' faces'. For example, he has a good side, kind, gentle, generous, and always thinks of others. But there's also an evil side, evil, violent, selfish, and paranoid about certain things. He has a strong desire for money, beauty, or other hobbies. Besides the good and evil sides, a person also has other sides. They are other personalities, personality, temper, knowledge, thinking, and cognitive environment. All these aspects affect a person's every move. " Grandma Young Man Hua did not continue to explain further. She just summarized after giving an example. "In other words, a person's thoughts are very complicated. They may not be all good, but they may not be all bad. People are very complicated and contradictory. If such complicated thoughts are expressed in a dream, those active factors will act according to their nature. The bad ones will think of doing bad things, the good ones will think of doing good things, and the good ones will think of doing good things. The good ones will follow their way and move freely in the dream. Then, when the dream comes out, it may not be clear or follow the order of reality. Instead, it may be vague, messy, or even distorted. " Grandma Young Man Hua giggled. "People feel that dreams are absurd. That's their nature. Their thoughts are different from the active factors in the dream. But those active factors exist like that. It's impossible to make them straight. For example, can a distorted mirror reflect a straight appearance? Why do people feel happy after they wake up from some dreams? The reason is that it's similar to the main nature and thoughts! "
"Thank you, grandma, for explaining!" Lin Dong asked again, "Then, is the dream becoming reality also because of the influence of these hidden factors outside of the nature?"
"Not necessarily!" Grandma Young Man Hua waved her hand and lectured Lin Dong in an old-fashioned manner. "There are many reasons for a dream to become reality. But, the most important point is that the information in the dream has successfully deceived the person's nature and consciousness. In other words, a person's nature and consciousness aren't strong enough. External evils can take advantage of it and make the dream become reality. Of course, there are other ways to forcefully control the nature! But no matter what, it's because the nature isn't strong enough and firm enough. The explanation of the dream ends here. It's too easy for you to answer a question in such detail! "
"Then, grandma, how should I guard against the pull of the enemy's Door of Dreams?" Lin Dong asked for a way to solve it.
"This question is very simple. Be firm." Grandma Young Man Hua waved her hand.
"I'm firm …" Lin Dong felt that it was useless.
"You're not firm enough!" Grandma Young Man Hua categorized Lin Dong's situation as "not firm enough".
"What else do I have to do to achieve true firmness?" Lin Dong sweated profusely. I can already guard my heart and not be moved by external things. What else do I have to do? Could it be that I have to turn into a super big boss in the dream and swallow the enemy in one bite? Is that possible?
"Firmness. It doesn't mean that you're firm, but it's true firmness! Firmness of mind. Every realm has different standards. At your current level, you're very firm. But if you go up a level and look back, you'll realize that besides your firmness, there are still many inadequacies. You can be even more resolute. " Grandma Young Man Hua replied seriously, "At least, from Grandma's point of view, you're holding on like this because you're not firm enough. If you can throw everything aside and face it fearlessly, eat what you should eat, sleep what you should sleep, and accept what you should come, that's the true firmness in your realm! "
"…" Lin Dong fell silent after hearing that.
"Lin Dong boy, if there's no problem, Grandma will go back to sleep!" Grandma Young Man Hua was a little impatient. She reminded Lin Dong to hand over the power of faith that he had promised.
"Grandma, do you think that I should face it fearlessly?" Lin Dong's eyes were filled with divine light. He seemed to have understood something with his spiritual sense, but he felt that he had almost grasped it.
"How old are you? Why do you have so many worries at such a young age? Aren't you tired of living? Even if you fail, so what? Why must you succeed in everything? You've experienced countless setbacks along the way and have experienced countless failures. So what if you fail once now? Moreover, if you face it calmly, it doesn't mean that you've completely given up. On the contrary, you might be able to succeed because you've let go of the knot in your heart. Instead of being so stubborn, you might as well do whatever you want! " Grandma Young Man Hua scolded Lin Dong with a little disappointment. After she finished scolding him, she smiled mysteriously, "Have you ever thought that maybe success or failure is all arranged? On the long path of cultivation, this might just be a small test. Why must you be so stubborn? "
"Ah!" Lin Dong felt as if his mind had been struck by a bolt of lightning, and his entire soul was shaken by it and became clear.
Success and failure.
His stubbornness was indeed too powerful.
With Piaomiao Fairy's Soul Seal and Guardian Star, as well as the Dragon Slayer Taoist's Guardian Sword Blood, his soul could be protected from all demons and would never be destroyed. Even if he was tricked by the enemy in his dream, so what if he was defeated once? Could it be that the enemy could travel through time and space, come to the blue planet, and forcefully take over his body? Moreover, as Grandma Young Man Hua said, if he let loose and fought with the enemy, he might not lose!
With the Dragon and Tiger Five Elemental Taiyue as the root, the Four Symbols as the protection, ice and fire as the attack, and fighting across space, how could he easily lose to the enemy?
In an instant, Lin Dong felt as if he had been enlightened with wisdom.
He was suddenly enlightened.
When he understood, he suddenly felt that it was a little funny.
He was originally a poor loose cultivator. Now that he had so many protection and helpers, what else did he have to worry about … If the enemy wanted to come, then he would fight! On this cultivation path of climbing to the peak, if there were no challenges, how could it be exciting?
"Hahahahaha!" Lin Dong looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. He finally understood.
After laughing, he bowed deeply to Grandma Young Man Hua who had enlightened him.
He offered 5000 power of faith with both hands.
He was willing.
Grandma Young Man Hua accepted it with a smile, "Lin Dong kid, you can't do anything else, but your comprehension is not bad. Otherwise, grandma wouldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with you! Work hard, it's still early, how can it be so easy to enter the Sky Beyond Heaven? Without grandma's guidance, even if you cultivate for a few thousand years, it'll be useless! In the future, be more filial to grandma. If grandma is happy, maybe I'll give you some guidance one day! "
"Yes, goodbye grandma!" Lin Dong finally understood now. Even if she was the world's biggest liar, Grandma Young Man Hua came from the Sky Beyond Heaven. Her realm and strength were indeed incredible.
After Lin Dong understood.
The huge stone in his heart was completely thrown away.
His mental exhaustion was like a gust of spring breeze, cleansing his body from head to toe.
He returned to his room, hugged Cheng Mingge, and had a good sleep.
He did not know if it was because of the arbiter's secret help, the restriction of the dream gate on the mental level, or if Lin Dong himself had thrown away all distracting thoughts, but he was impeccable for a moment. The enemy was apprehensive and did not act rashly, so the night was uneventful.
Lin Dong did not feel the slightest bit of harassment from the enemy until he woke up the next day.
On the contrary, the enemy seemed to be hiding even deeper.
Hidden and unmoving.
If it was in the past, Lin Dong would definitely have some thoughts, but now, he just laughed it off and did not care about it at all.
After getting up, he let go of Cheng Mingge in his arms and slowly got down to the ground. He opened the window and found that the sun was rising in the east. The warm sunlight shone on the whole world, and he immediately felt full of energy. It was as if his mental realm had unknowingly broken through the original level and entered a whole new realm.
Cheng Mingge woke up and habitually hugged him, but found that he was not there.
He woke up completely.
He opened his eyes.
He found that Lin Dong was in front of the window, bathing in the sunlight.
When he came back and smiled, he instantly felt that his whole life had brightened up …
"Morning!" Lin Dong smiled at her, and Cheng Mingge, who was sitting on the bed, also smiled sweetly. "Morning, I haven't seen you up so early in a long time. You must have had a good sleep last night!"
"It will be like this every day from now on!" Lin Dong opened his arms, looked up at the sun, and took a deep breath.
He did not say.
But Cheng Mingge knew that he, who had a new spirit, had obtained a new life! The blockhead who used to keep a straight face for the hellish training, the blockhead who used to work hard by himself for some reason, was gone forever! Now, the one who came back was a familiar but more energetic and more smiley version of him!
Only this kind of him made her feel truly at ease.
A warm current floated in Cheng Mingge's heart.
She lifted the quilt and jumped out of bed.
Rushed over.
Hugging him tightly from behind, she muttered to herself, as if she wanted to tell him, but also as if she was telling herself, "Blockhead, we will always be like today, okay? No matter what happens, I will be with you! As long as you are willing to bring me along, no matter where you go, I will always be with you … "
