Chapter 358 Happy Dreams

 Opening your eyes, the precise and soft light of the crystal chandelier on the white ceiling came into your eyes.

Ji Xun woke up from the warm bed.

 I haven’t slept so comfortably for a long time, and my spirit is in a cloud-like state of continuous joy.

Out the window, there are birds singing and flowers fragrant, and the sun is shining brightly.

The fragrance still lingers on your nose.

Ji Xun turned slightly to the right, and immediately felt a gentle warmth in his arm.

  Just right support and resilience are like waves gently lifting a boat, making people feel comfortably embraced, beaten and swayed in the waves.

Moved his arm and took in a piece of soft and delicate material.

 The goose down quilt was mostly lifted.

 Beside him is a beautiful body with uneven figure.

Ji Xun couldn't put it down, it has a smoothness that makes people feel like they can't stop their hands.

Ji Xun also habitually records some of his thoughts in his daily must-read bookmarks.

　　The body temperature of the two people is coexisting with each other, and their heartbeats are beating against each other.

 Photographic memory is indeed a god-level ability to learn.

 The quilt was just lifted, revealing her stunning figure.

 It seems that the three of them are already familiar with this kind of scene.

 Not every personality is addicted to pleasure.

 Routine practice, this is now a required daily course like the biological clock.

 There was already a bright moonlight outside the window.

 “Huh~?”

She looked at the intimate posture of the two people on the bed and joked: "Hey, are you so interested so early in the morning?"

 Rich and plump.

 Then he took out the classics from the storage ring and looked through them to study.

Ji Xun crossed his legs and began to meditate every day.

To him, the breathing method is as much a survival instinct as breathing.

The person next to the pillow was distracted by this gentle caress, as if she was still tired after a night of tossing. She didn’t open her eyes and scolded: “Don’t make trouble~”

 He also likes and enjoys this happy time.

 Indulging in things that make people happy will quietly weaken people's will.

Ji Xun finally woke up.

 He glanced at the two beautiful beauties on the bed and smiled.

Ji Xun smiled slightly, looking at that beautiful and charming face, it was Qin Rushi.

 It seems like a long time.

But Ji Xun is not too different from ordinary people.

Even lying there, it gives people a lazy and ultimate elegance.

I don’t know how long the pleasant joy has passed.

　　Not the youthful and graceful figure of a girl, but the mature plumpness.

With that said, Miss Honglou came over, with a hint of teasing in her crystal eyes. She looked at the excited Ji Xun and said, "Let me just say that Aunt Qin has a super **** figure, okay?"

 He looked at the last memo he wrote on his bookmark.

After all, he couldn't sleep. Qin Ru turned over and lay lazily on Ji Xun's body, pressing him down, and said in a daze: "I want to sleep for a while."

 Many times, it is already instinctive like muscle memory.

She also felt that the atmosphere was getting intense, so she sat on the edge of the bed and watched openly.

 But there is also a big problem.

That is, the brain collects too much information every day. If it is not sorted out in time, prioritized, and actively put some memories into deep memory, the consequences will be that it is easy to mess up the thoughts and the brain operations will become slower and slower.

At this moment, in the bathroom, Dong Qi, who was naked and wiping his wet body with a bath towel, walked in with a smile.

 The skin glows with a white shimmer under the light, and touches it gently, giving people a soft touch like a cloud.

 What should be done today.

This kind of sinking makes people greedy and unwilling to wake up.

 The air is filled with an ambiguous smell of strong hormone secretion.

The person next to the pillow noticed it and snorted softly. He turned over and tried to hold down Ji Xun's wandering hands, but he just happened to lie flat on his back.

 He stretched out his hand to play with the pomelo-like pride, and happy thoughts were about to start again.

 It is another joyful and addictive spring scenery.

Ji Xun pulled him over.

  No need for subjective consciousness to give instructions.

“Aunt Qin said that the garden at home is empty and she wants to plant something. Today she is going to the market to buy some flower seeds.”

“Qiqi’s armor needs to be trained on the artificial intelligence control system. I’m going to visit Master Merlin today to see if I can get a biological AI.”

These memos seem strange, even at odds with the world.

But at this moment, Ji Xun didn't notice anything unusual at all.

There are still some fragments.

 For example: War, Silver Moon, Beware of Illusions.

I glanced at it, originally I was going to ignore it.

 After deducing it instinctively, I suddenly discovered that the "world" was in conflict.

This is the passive ability brought about by practicing the magical and mysterious method "I am the world".

 “War? Illusion? Why should I record this?”

“Oh, Silver Moon Sect. If I want to prevent certain illusions, I need to record them frequently.”

ˆ “.”

　　After thinking for a moment, as if he had painstakingly dug something out of the soil, Ji Xun found the reason from the depths of his dusty memory.

 When there is a logical flaw in a world, countless "patches" are needed to make up for the logical flaw.

 Memories dug out from the depths of cognition find an explanation to fill this gap.

 “But why do I mention the Silver Moon Cult?”

Ji Xun suddenly felt dizzy, as if there was some mysterious force preventing him from thinking about this problem.

 That was a very painful thought process.

 It seems that you have to break this pleasant and perfect world with your own hands in order to see the truth.

Just as I was thinking about it, the moonlight was shining brightly outside the window.

 Qin Rushi and Dong Qi woke up at some point in the bed.

The two women walked up to Ji Xun naked, helped knead his shoulders, and asked gently: "Ji Xun, won't you sleep for a while?"

 A harmonious and perfect scene.

 The bone-eroding softness makes people completely irresistible, and the air is immediately filled with an ambiguous and depressing atmosphere.

 Compared with boring thinking, joy can always solve all problems.

But the logical loophole that I am the world made his mind feel a crisis, and he instinctively came up with an intuitive feeling: "Hey, could it be that I have been under an illusion now?"

These thoughts together, it was as if the ice was shattering, and Ji Xun felt as if he had fallen into a freezing cold ice cave.

 My thoughts became clear instantly.

The surrounding space seemed to be distorted, but Ji Xun didn't notice any difference at all.

At this moment, he felt that everything that appeared in his field of vision was still the normal appearance of the world.

 Because this is a fantasy world constructed based on his own consciousness.

 The trouble with illusions is that if you can't save, you won't notice it.

 But since it is an extraordinary ability, the card masters have already studied it thoroughly.

 It's just a way to crack it, it's very difficult to do.

Ji Xun understands the methods of the Silver Moon Sect and has previously studied related countermeasures.

To break the illusion, first of all, you must realize that you are in an "illusion".

 It’s like being in a dream, you can’t realize you are in a dream.

 But once you realize it, then it is called a "lucid dream".

 Some dreams can also be controlled by subjective consciousness.

 In addition to mental strength, these are some abilities that require directional training.

Ji Xun thought about this and his mind began to do calculations.

 He began to try to construct some complex scenes to confirm his judgment.

 For example, calculating a complex arithmetic problem.

 The world in dreams also requires a certain amount of logic to maintain.

 It is easiest to use the environment created by instinct, such as joy and fear.

This is how people usually have nightmares and spring dreams

 Because just by satisfying these simple emotional needs, the body can become addicted to a fantasy world and find it difficult to extricate itself.

Soon, Ji Xun found that no matter how he calculated, the pen and paper in his hand were full of confusing numbers, and he could not get accurate results.

At this moment, he was sure of something: "I am indeed in a dream."

 The trouble is, once you realize you are in a dream, you may not be able to wake up.

 Turning his head to look, he saw that Qin Rushi and Dong Qi's beautiful bodies with their own charms were still around them, and happiness was within reach.

Ji Xun still didn't notice anything unusual about this scene.

“In this case, the level of the spell is very high.”

Ji Xun thought of something and tried several ways to wake up from the environment, but nothing worked.

 This also shows that the level of the spell is much higher than his level.

 Just like the time Katarina was recruited in Xia Mu City, her professional ability allowed her to realize that she was in an illusion, but she could not escape.

 Without external force, it is almost impossible for the victim to escape the spell on his own.

Ji Xun looked stern and murmured to himself: "This is troublesome. I must have forgotten something very important."

 He couldn't remember when he was attacked.

 Won’t even think about it.

This is the shielding patch applied to the "illusion world" by the illusion itself.

　　It is to prevent the victim from imagining some logical things, so as to analyze the causes and consequences of the spell.

 Having this idea of ​​"forgetting" is still the result of calculations based on loopholes deduced by me, the world.

rather than subjective consciousness.

 Usually the fastest and most direct way to escape from the illusion is to let yourself die in the dream and "scare yourself awake".

However, there are also some masters who specialize in creating illusions that make people "mistakenly believe" that they are in a dream, inducing the target to commit suicide and escape from the illusion.

Ji Xun is not sure what his current situation is.

 But the sixth sense of "meaning" told him that he couldn't do this.

“Since I will be tricked, I must have thought of a countermeasure before.”

 In dreams, consciousness is incomplete.

Although Ji Xun didn't know how to escape, he felt certain in his heart. He wrote a memo in his notes and must have considered the response plan.

 Thinking of this, I started searching in my mind.

 The essence of illusion is "fantasy".

Rather than really erasing cognition. At this moment, the knowledge in his memory was sealed by spells, like the classics displayed on the shelves of a library.

 The knowledge is still in the mind.

 But he needs to unlock it one by one.

 This is a tedious and time-consuming process. Ji Xun resisted the temptation of joy and decisively opened the dusty door of cognition in the sea of ​​knowledge.

　Human memory system is amazing.

 Whether it is the brain or the soul, whatever we experience will definitely leave traces.

Even if it is forgotten, it is actually buried deep in the depths.

  But just like a deleted computer hard drive, no matter how clean it is, some traces will be left behind.

 Psychic card masters have studied this aspect thoroughly and have a lot of special training.

 Whether it is tampering with memory or loss caused by memory overwriting.

As long as you can find those traces, you can find clues and break the illusion.

 After Ji Xun realized that he was under an illusion, his thoughts became clearer and clearer.

Those personalities that were suppressed by joy finally woke up.

 He leafed through the "books" in the sea of ​​knowledge one by one.

 It's like waking up my memory bit by bit.

 Finally, he found traces of his memory being covered.

I opened a book and it said: "When you see this sentence, it should be the fourth time you realize that you are in a dream. When I saw this sentence, it said 'second time', I It's the 'third time'. In other words, you have been trapped in the illusion for a long time. After I realized it, I sealed some memories."

"the fourth time?"

Ji Xun saw the words he left for himself and realized that this was not the first time he realized that he was in an illusion.

 And deep in his memory, another memo was left.

 This is the fourth time.

 Then the problem arises.

　　Why did I fail to wake up completely the first three times, but instead left myself a message and continued to fall into a dream?

 But it was not in vain, but it left some traces.

 So, how can I fully wake up now?

 What happened recently? Why am I in a fantasy world? Where am I? Did you fight the enemy? Who could it be?

One question after another popped up in my mind.

Ji Xun couldn’t remember it at all.

 He could only look through it bit by bit.

At this moment, the scene in front of Ji Xun completely changed from a warm room to a library.

The massive books are densely packed all around, countless.

The "library" in his sea of ​​knowledge is the knowledge accumulated over countless days and nights. How could he finish reading it in a short time?

Ji Xun saw the clues he had left for the third time: "I have read the contents on the eighty-seven rows of bookshelves. Time is not enough. The sober state will lose will over time. This is the reason for infinite sinking. Remember, hurry up.”

Seeing the reminder he left last time, he decisively started looking at the eighty-eighth row of bookshelves.

But after looking for a long time, Ji Xun still couldn't find any clues.

 He recalled a lot of knowledge from "books".

 About literature, history, art, childhood circus experiences, supernatural beings, cards, fifty-two demons, spells, etc.

A lot of content seems to be poured into my mind like a flood.

 But after thinking about it carefully, I found that it was of no benefit to my situation.

The kind of crude and large-volume infusion is like stuffing "useless content" and occupying the brain's thinking ability.

And after reading those books like this, I'm afraid I will have to reincarnate hundreds of times.

 The more knowledge in his mind was restored, the more Ji Xun felt drowsy.

 But if you don’t look, it’s completely impossible to find clues to crack the illusion.

Ji Xun became inexplicably irritable.

This kind of stupid method without hope made him feel very resistant.

Suddenly, he had an incredible thought: "Could it be that these messages left by the 'third time me' were part of the illusion?"

 Aware of this, Ji Xun felt as if he had just realized that he was there, as if he had been struck by lightning.

 When you realize it, it’s like going up a level and seeing something different in front of you.

  A masterful illusionist with a very incomprehensible ability.

 That is to suggest that the target subconsciously improves the logic of the dream.

  In other words, it’s called “replenishing your own brain.”

 Everything Ji Xun is thinking about now may be the illusion itself making logical patches to the illusion in order to trap him.

 They are all fake and easy to tell.

 I'm afraid that most of them are true, with some false ones mixed in.

 Or maybe it’s all true.

 It’s just that the key point of breaking the situation has been ignored, which leads to the wrong thinking direction.

Ji Xun deduced it.

 One thing is certain.

That is

I may have actually woken up three times, and most likely I have read through the eighty-seven rows of bookshelves.

 But it does not necessarily imply that one should start from the eighty-eighth row.

“So, the memories left by the ‘third time me’ cannot be fully trusted.”

Now that he realizes this, Ji Xun feels that it is most likely a logical closed loop of the spell itself. He wants to trap himself here indefinitely and let him waste his waking time reading those books.

 Now my head is dizzy and I look like I am going to sink again.

It seems that I woke up a little too late.

Ji Xun's eyes were filled with confusion, and from time to time he would wander away and lose focus.

He has no clue of how to solve the current situation.

He was not sure whether he could go out. With his thoughts in mind, a pen and paper appeared in his hand, and he left a message for himself: "When you read this sentence, you should realize for the fifth time that you are in a dream."

 He wrote down his discovery in his notes.

  If I still have a chance to realize that I have been hit by an illusion next time, I might be able to avoid some detours if I come back to the sealed sea of ​​consciousness.

So,

 The opportunities will be greater next time.

 After doing all this, Ji Xun looked at the densely packed bookshelves in front of him, still feeling that he could only break the situation by finding "certain key memories" that he had sealed away.

 He sighed slightly: "It seems that the only thing left is to gamble on luck?"

With such a massive number of books, trying to find that memory is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The lights in the library are like moonlight, gentle and bright, with a kind of charm that people cannot detect.

 As if the thought was released, he could return to a warm bed, surrounded by any beautiful woman he could imagine.

 Song Yu, Qin Rushi, Dong Qi, Chu Jiu, Nan Jing, Catalina.

Hey, Chief Silver Moon, and Princess Betty. Why did they show up too?

oh! Humiliating the enemy seems to be a different kind of experience.

 The more I think about it, the more confused I become.

Ji Xun shook off the fascinating and fascinating images in his mind and continued to search.

However, he did not take the books from the bookshelf in order and read them.

Instead, I walked among the forest-like bookshelves, occasionally pulling out a book and taking a look.

 Then keep walking.

 There is a copy on every bookshelf.

 It’s all about intuition and luck.

Ji Xun's body became heavier and heavier, and he felt drowsy and about to fall asleep.

He held on to his will and took every step with great difficulty.

 “Tsk tsk, I’m really curious as to how I got tricked.”

 Consciousness is blurred.

Happy thoughts are like a caged tiger that can no longer be suppressed.

Ji Xun also knew that he could not hold on for much longer.

Most people would think that if they must die, it would be good to die in such a beautiful dream.

 But Ji Xun would not think so.

 The self-deprecating arc at the corner of his mouth is getting higher and higher, mocking himself for being greedy for pleasure.

 The cowardice and greed of human nature are so ridiculous.

　That is myself.

 But not the complete self.

 He is not afraid of death.

 But I don’t want to die in such a confused way.

Since I have allowed myself to see clearly a layer of illusion, my pursuit of the truth has overtaken everything else.

 “The fourth time? Maybe there will be no next time”

 Even when faced with a desperate situation, Ji Xun can still smile.

Even though he saw the God of Death waving at him as promised, he still had no fear.

 The fascination of truth outweighs the fear of death, and the joy of getting out of trouble outweighs the temptation of joy.

Also to prove that his existence is not just a vain dream.

Ji Xun’s eyes were covered with fatigue, but they still burned with determination.

give up?

No.

 I would rather spend the last moment of my life dancing on the tip of a knife.

Ji Xun’s belief is extremely firm.

I don’t know if it’s because of [the bad luck gambler].

At a certain moment in the desperate situation, it seemed as if a power from somewhere came.

As he was dying of consciousness, Ji Xun relied on his intuition to pull out a book.

 The moment it opens.

Changes come without warning.

The world in front of me is like a mirror, fragmented.

 Like waking up from a dream.

 The originally hazy consciousness suddenly saw the words clearly.

The book contains this passage: "The southern continent launched a general attack. Tailong Mechanical City relied on artillery and heavy mechas to fight fiercely for two days, and finally defeated the city."

 This is his sealed memory.

 It turns out that it was seven days ago that I came to Talon Machinery City.

Two days ago, a 400,000-strong army from the Southern Continent broke into the city and began fierce street fighting and massacre.

 Blood dyed the streets red and soaked the ground.

Fanatical believers sacrificed millions of lives, and a bright silver moon rose in the sky.

The thousand-meter-tall Silver Moon Divine Tree appeared again.

 In a trance of consciousness.

 The indescribable, incomprehensible, and invisible moon goddess—Arachne, "Lord of Dreams and Pleasures",

　　has arrived.
