Chapter 127 The Story of Zaxin

"Some things, why do you say so harshly? Anyway, she contacted you in this way. If Frick hadn't found you, it might have saved your life! You said it yourself, she just You are willing to use your noble heart to forgive her humbleness."

This is what Hua Zhenxing said to Locke when he opened the door. The location is not in the urban area of ​​Port Fiso, but on the third floor of the main building of Palm Manor.Except for Hua Zhenxing, Manman and the three old men, only a few high-level executives of Huanxiang Industrial knew that Locke was here.Even if the Fulgan Foundation can buy eyeliners within the new alliance, Locke's whereabouts cannot be found at this moment.

Manman, one of the insiders, actually only knows that Mr. Locke needs to hide temporarily. This is a confidential task. As for the specific inside information, she will not pursue it, because Xiaohua said to keep it secret.

Beiwan Mining is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Huanxiang Industry, and Jindianhang is a holding subsidiary of Beiwan Mining, and Locke is the person in charge of Jindianhang.According to the structure of Huanxiang Industrial Group, the person in charge of Sun Company is equivalent to the director of the supply and marketing branch, which is the fifth-level position.

But Jindianxing is very special. Its parent company, Beiwan Mining, is just an empty shell and currently has no other business.Most of the task of extracting ore gold has now been handed over to Jindianhang. Jindianhang has also invested in five noodle restaurants and enterprises that produce sauce and vinegar.

The profits of Jindianhang are very high, and a large amount of working capital has been provided to the head office in the name of previous payments to support Huanxiang Industrial in acquiring the heavy oil power plant project and continuing to build it.Coupled with Locke's special circumstances, even though he held a fifth-level position, he enjoyed the seventh-level treatment.

On the third floor of the main building, apart from the luxurious suite with curved floor-to-ceiling windows at the easternmost end, the other twelve guest rooms are also high-end suites.The largest suite is reserved for the owner of the manor, Feng Zibin. Xiaohua lived in it when Feng Zibin was "absent", and now there are four other suites that have been transformed into the director's office.

Although Locke's status in the Huanxiang Industrial System is not low, he enjoys seven-level treatment, but he is not up to the level of a director, and today he also occupies a suite on the third floor, which is considered exceeding the standard.

Hua Zhenxing was just next door to Locke, watching the conversation between "Jin Dian Xing in the New Era" and "Grassland in the Forest on June [-]th" at the same time.

After closing the chat software, Locke put the phone on the table and replied: "This is how I forgive her. I expressed my willingness to hand over the book to them and asked them to wait for my notice, then others, including Bo En, -Merson will all see the transcript of this conversation."

Hua Zhenxing praised again: "Tell them to wait for my notice! Your last sentence is so handsome, it really has the style of a gangster boss."

Locke said embarrassingly: "Don't make fun of me anymore, there has been no Golden Gang for a long time, and I am deeply ashamed of that experience."

At this time, someone knocked on the door again: "Hua, are you here? I brought the food."

Hua Zhenxing opened the door and said, "Thank you Manman! Let's eat together in this room."

Locke hid here, Hua Zhenxing also lived next door, Manman ran over, and went upstairs to get food in the cafeteria on the first floor.Poor Locke can also eat hot meals. If Hua Zhen is not around, no one will specially cook for him.

Because of Manman's presence, Hua Zhenxing and Locke tacitly stopped talking about the Forgan Foundation during the meal.Hua Zhenxing chatted about all kinds of experiences of this trip, but did not mention the experience of encountering Frick.

Hua Zhenxing said that next time we can go together. Not only will we cook Pianerchuan and Beggar Pheasant on the spot, but we can also have a stone pot fish. Manman feels very happy.The atmosphere of the meal was very relaxed, which relieved Locke's mood.

After the meal, several people sat down to drink tea together. Under the influence of Hua Zhenxing, Locke and Manman are used to drinking tea, not only can drink but also brew.While drinking tea and chatting, Hua Zhenxing asked: "Locke, did your teacher tell you what kind of training you need to go through before becoming a formal magician? I think your cultivation level is almost the same."

His tone was very casual, but Locke put down the teacup seriously and said, "The teacher said that he had to endure the temptation of the devil in his own experience."

Manman asked curiously: "What kind of devil, how did you tempt him? Is it scary?"

In front of the little girl Manman, Locke was still very careful in his words: "It is said that it is not scary at all, but very charming. Of course, the teacher also said that there are also predecessors who encountered very frightening things in meditation, and even mentally Abnormal, so taking this step is also dangerous."

Hua Zhenxing: "Then did he mention how to pass the test?"

Locke raised his head, and the focal length of his eyes seemed to be looking into the distance: "The teacher said that this kind of test that appears in meditation is actually not difficult. The most important thing is that you have to know what you are going through? In most of the magic books, It is said that it is an illusion woven by the devil, reminding people not to be tempted..."

The so-called "temptation of the devil" is also called "demonic realm" in another practice system, which is usually considered to be the refraction and amplification of a certain desire deep in the heart.This kind of desire is no longer a simple and direct physiological impulse, it will be expressed in various complex forms and scenes, which is what Locke's teacher Mr. Dawson taught at the beginning.

Hua Zhenxing asked after listening, "How did your teacher do it at that time?"

Locke shrugged and said, "In meditation, of course, you don't see, you don't hear. In short, you don't get tempted. As for daily life, my teacher has always been single. He sighed at that time, 'What is the difference between an illusory devil and a real person? ’, and then went out for a month with a lot of money. These were all things before I knew him, and I heard other people say it.”

Manman: "Ah, where did he go to play?"

Hua Zhenxing waved his hand and said: "It's not important! I'm curious, why is he always single? He is the head of the Dawson family, doesn't he want to pass on the family?"

Locke lowered his head and said: "I didn't know the reason at the time, but I heard him occasionally say that the honor guarded by the Dawson family will end in his hands."

Hua Zhenxing changed the subject and said, "Is this how he rejected the temptation of the devil and passed the test of God?"

Locke shook his head and said, "He doesn't think it's God's test, it's just a test of his own cognitive ability and willpower. If these two points don't meet the requirements, he can't become a formal magician. The test of cognitive ability is Main."

Manman asked, "Your teacher doesn't believe in God?"

Locke: "Although he has always claimed to be a devout believer, he is actually a rationalist. God is just a concept to him, a concept of philosophy and logic."

Hua Zhenxing: "What rationalists, I don't quite understand, can you explain it carefully?"

Locke: "When I first became an apprentice, I asked him why he believed in God. He drew a table for me. The vertical axis is people, divided into two situations, whether they believe in God or not; the horizontal axis is God, which is also divided into two situations. In each case, it exists or does not exist, so that four combinations can be obtained.

The first combination, people believe in God, God also exists, the result is that this person goes to heaven.

The second combination, people believe in God, but God does not exist, the result is that this person can neither go to heaven nor hell.

The third combination, the person does not believe in God, but God exists, and the result is that the person goes to hell.

The fourth combination, people do not believe in God, God does not exist, the result is neither heaven nor hell.

He does not know whether God exists, nor can he determine whether it exists or not, but according to his rational choice, he still believes in God. "

As he introduced, he drew a square on the paper.Manman also understood, nodded and said: "Oh, so he thinks so!"

Hua Zhenxing didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Is it just these four? Has he thought about other situations, such as the price to be paid for believing in God, whether there are people in this world who can't go to heaven even if they believe in God, and whether there are people who can't go to heaven even if they don't believe in God?" There are other options, like being able to go somewhere better than heaven."

Locke seemed to be choking on the tea, and coughed a few times: "Hua, our cultural background is different."

Hua Zhenxing: "Yes, it's different. No matter how rational your thinking is, it's still influenced by your perception. I won't discuss this issue. Let's talk about the temptation of the devil. It sounds simple, doesn't it?"

Locke shook his head and said, "What I just said was just what the teacher encountered in meditation. Such a test is indeed not difficult. He once solemnly told me that the really dangerous experience was actually a dream he had."

As soon as Hua Zhenxing heard the word dream, he immediately became vigilant, and approached: "I'm very interested, please explain carefully!"

Locke: "One night when he was sleeping, he actually had a dream. He dreamed that he was in a mysterious library. There was a tome on the table in front of him, which recorded the secret of becoming a great magician. On the Internet, there are many classics, all of which are all kinds of magical arts that are only found in legends.

He told me that if he was not very awake at the time, knew that it was a dream, and realized that it was the temptation of the devil, he would have read those classics, and maybe he would have practiced according to the content recorded in the classics.If that is the case, there is a high probability that something will happen, and you may be tempted by the devil. "

Hua Zhenxing asked: "How did he know he was dreaming?"

However, Manman reminded: "According to what you said, if you cultivate the soul in the three realms, you will almost never dream again, and you can understand dreams even in dreams."

Mr. Dawson did not encounter a hallucination while meditating, but entered a demonic realm while sleeping. This kind of test is more confusing and concealed, and it is also the magic of the so-called demonic realm.

People with a clear soul can recognize dreams in their dreams. It is not normal to have such a dream, so it is even more important to maintain a clear state of mind. This is the real concentration and cognitive ability.

The time for Hua Zhenxing to break through the three realms is still very short, just a few months, and Locke and Manman have much longer experience in possessing the three realms than him, so Manman can actually remind Hua Zhenxing.

Hua Zhenxing turned his head and said, "Manman, are there any similar legends in your tribe? How did the ancient priests go further?"

Manman blinked her eyes and thought for a long time, then said after thinking about it: "After listening to what Mr. Locke said just now, I also remembered a story, which was told to me by Patriarch Zaxin..."

The Sea God tribe used to be very powerful, but later it fell apart due to various reasons and was on the verge of extinction. The tribe where Manman belonged to kept migrating, and it became increasingly difficult to survive in the displacement. Only two priests remained.

One of the priests was already very old, and his cultivation level was the same as Manman's now, and he was also in the third realm. On the way of migration, he finally ushered in an opportunity to break through.One day when he was cultivating, he saw a wonderful future. The clansmen finally arrived at a peaceful fertile land, established their homes and lived a life of abundance, peace and carefree...

He told another priest about his experience, and the other priest hurriedly reminded him: "The ancestors conveyed the commandment of the Sea God. It is an illusory and misguided path. You must not fall into it and stick to your pure heart."

The old priest said, "I know, but I want to. My pure heart is already there, and I don't want to continue to suffer."

The old priest became weaker and weaker day by day, and lost his divine power. Not long after, one night, he died sitting on the sand dunes, still smiling... This is the story Zaxin told Manman.
