Chapter 10

There is a small mortuary to the west of the West Temple, and there is a nearby crematorium in the town that provides cremation services.

But obviously, this corpse was claimed by the family members, so it will be handed over to the family members for their own disposal.

After putting the corpse into the freezer, Zhou Yi gradually woke up from that mysterious state of sudden enlightenment.

The whole person trembled, and the stiff muscles returned to normal.

"Hmm...that's weird!" He blinked hard, recalling that he seemed to have entered a state of extreme concentration just now, completely forgetting the external objects, the only thing in the world was the setting sun and the withered leaves. There is nothing else.

Oh, yes, there are countless "spirits"!
It's hard to describe that feeling. If someone asks what they saw, they can only say "I saw countless spirits".

"Spirit" is not the soul, it can be said to be the product after the soul dissipates.

Ordinary people, even psykers, cannot observe this most basic world.

"No wonder... everyone thinks that this world has a soul, and someone must have seen it with their own eyes."

At this moment, the brain became extremely clear, as if it had opened up the two veins of Ren and Du, and was connected with everything in the universe.

This is... an epiphany? !

It feels pretty good, as if there is something more in my mind, a little more insight.But there is no way to determine what is more...

Wang Zhengfa lit a cigarette, there was a light "click", and red sparks flew in the darkness. He squinted at Li Xianfeng who was drinking, and knew that this guy was suffering from jealousy.

Of course, he wasn't worried about what old man Li would do. "Jealousy" was essentially a special cultivation method of penance.

"Do you want to smoke?" Wang Zhengfa asked Zhou Yi.

"Forget it, I'm not used to it." Zhou Yi waved his hand and politely refused.

He has always been a non-smoker, whether in a good mood or in a bad mood.

He just wants to go back to practice psionic energy as soon as possible!
"Don't mind this kind of thing too much, you'll get used to it after a while." Wang Zhengfa slowly exhaled a smoke ring.

The smoke ring continuously expands and expands upwards, and finally disappears into the air.

"Don't be too sympathetic to this group of people. How many of the prisoners detained here are truly good people? Our society has its own way of operating. Although sometimes it is not very reasonable, but sometimes it is very reasonable. .”

Seeming to see Zhou Yi's complicated mood, Wang Zhengfa smiled and said: "Perhaps there are indeed some who were wronged, and some are honest and good people, but most of them are not worthy of sympathy."

"When they were locked up here, they were honest and diligent, but once they got out, they might become man-eating tigers."

"Let's just talk about Xiao Xu. I don't know if he's a good person or not, but the villain Lao Li who was stabbed to death also has a family... He, the pillar of the family, is going to live a hard life. Yes. Old Li is a villain, but he still treats his old mother with filial piety. Where in the world are there good and bad people in a pure sense?"

Zhou Yi was silent and did not speak.

Wang Zhengfa smiled, took another deep puff of the cigarette, and exhaled a smoke ring: "You have only been in the West Institute for a short time, but actually working here has some special taboos."

"First, you must wear a mask at all times. Don't let these prisoners know your true face. There are a small number of psychics imprisoned here, with special skills. Like the thief surnamed Bai, as long as he touches you with his hand, It can steal your things, and it is easy to open the lock. For this kind of person, the chance of jailbreak is greatly improved."

"Of course, this old white, we know that he has this ability, so we took precautions. But for other criminals, we don't know if they have the ability."

"Wearing a mask can reduce a lot of risks for nothing. At least, these people don't know your face, so they can't directly retaliate against you."

"Also, some people have gone out, and they may turn into big bosses. There are also some rich second-generation and underworld bosses locked up here. We don't need to offend them, anyway, we will follow the rules."

Zhou Yi nodded.

Psionic energy is quite obscure, and unless it is actively used, it cannot be detected by conventional machines.

The technology in this world has not yet developed to that level.

Wang Zhengfa stretched out his second finger again: "Second, don't be too kind to the prisoners, don't make friends with them, and don't find the so-called 'truth, goodness and beauty' here. Some people are born evil people. The circuit is different from normal people, if you treat him a little better, he will make more progress."

"There are too many such people, and the proportion is much higher than in normal society."

"Many people are only sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment, and they will be released after a period of time. What will you do if they rely on you? This group of people will die, and they are shameless. Don't be too kind to them."

Wang Zhengfa seemed to be recalling the past, and said a little funnyly: "Two years ago, there was a young man of literature and art who went to the West Institute to look for the truth, goodness and beauty. In the end, a group of hooligans went out and ran to his house, and they became friends with him and refused to leave. Yes. Hey, I don’t know how much work was wasted getting rid of this group of people, it’s better not to contact them from the beginning!”

"The most frightening thing is the death row inmates. Don't be too kind to them. People in this kind of despair will grab even a little life-saving straw, even if this life-saving straw is illusory and doesn't exist at all."

"Being so kind to him, he actually thinks about it and thinks you will save him. In the end, he even resents you."

"Of course, there are too many stories about the farmer and the snake. There are more than one or two, otherwise, the people here are all scum. You treat him better, he takes it for granted, and you treat him less , he feels that you have treated him badly again."

Wang Zhengfa threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped on it, and pointed to his own head: "This kind of people think differently from us."

"Although you are not afraid of Nian, if the malice they generate after they die is specifically aimed at you, it will still cause you to suffer mental backlash. Psionic power cannot be used indiscriminately, so it's better to take it easy..."

Zhou Yi's heart trembled.

The matter of spiritual backlash was also emphasized deeply in the memory of the original owner.

Dispelling human obsessions will read the other party's memory to a certain extent, and the spiritual level will inevitably be affected, especially targeted evil thoughts have a particularly large impact on people. Over time, the entire person's worldview may be changed. .

At that time, they will become irritable, extreme, and even have the possibility of sudden death.

There is a certain probability that the original owner of the body died because of me.

However, Zhou Yi was not greatly affected, and he was never even troubled by mental backlash.Maybe it's because he didn't perform many tasks, or maybe because the slate in his mind collected most of his obsessions, so it didn't affect him.
