Chapter 5: Granny Akin Who Wanders in the Wilderness
Captain Lorna has been stuck at one level for a long time without breaking through. The main problem is this alien right hand.
She had paid such a high price to get it. As if she had found a treasure, she decisively cut off her original right hand and transformed it into this thing. She thought it would make rapid progress, but it was the beginning of disaster.
She was harmed by this alien right hand, and her personality integrity continued to decline, and she was already on the edge of madness.
Now, it was too late to abandon it. She could only connect it and dismantle it for a while, maintaining it with difficulty.
If the separation is forcible, it may completely crush her and cause a complete breakdown of her personality...
At this time, she stared at her left hand and mirrored right hand in the mirror box. Every time she clenched and unclenched her fist, her nervous system became vaguely more coupled.
Does this earthly method really work?
"What's going on?" Captain Lorna stopped. The more surprised he was, the more he needed to be vigilant.
People who grew up on the streets know one thing best: luck, the bitch, has always looked down upon themselves.
"It smells really good, doesn't it?" Gu He smiled slightly, no longer surprised, "If you practice like this every day, you will slowly get better."
"You are not a simple guy." Captain Lorna looked at him again, "How can a wild dog know so much?"
The surrounding female mercenaries were surprised and alert when they saw this. Fan Debao frowned and thought about something.
"I met a doctor's mother-in-law in the wilderness before. She knew a lot." Gu He explained.
"Really?" Captain Lorna was dubious. This kind of thing is not surprising. There are many extraordinary doctors traveling in the wilderness.
"We all call her Granny Ajin."
Gu He spoke very naturally because he was talking about Jin Yansu, one of the founders of solution-focused short-term therapy.
"Grandma Ajin is amazing. The wilderness is full of dangers. We often have people with broken arms and legs, but she heals them all."
A good therapist should help patients build confidence and construct a happy imagination for the future, which is the power to solve problems.
If Cowherd can't provide that kind of persuasive guidance, then let's ask a mysterious doctor to do it.
"Then Granny Ajin, is there anything else you can do?" Captain Lorna's green eyes widened, still unable to hold back.
If she can digest this alien right hand, she will be reborn...
"My mother-in-law always taught us..." Gu He pretended to remember.
The key for Captain Lorna now is to accept the tragic fact that she lost a hand due to an accident and became disabled.
She must overcome this hurdle by herself.
The psychiatrist is responsible for providing encouragement and keeping her mentality positive.
"When you pay attention to good things, you have a good day; when you pay attention to bad things, you have a bad day. The same is true for prosthetics. If you pay attention to it, it is the problem. If you don't pay attention to it, it is the answer.
.”
"Mindset." Gu He emphasized, "The most important thing in life is to be happy. It's better to be a bit salty and just go with the flow."
She drank this bowl of chicken soup, and then it was up to her to take care of herself.
Captain Lorna listened thoughtfully, her face turned a few times, yes, Granny Ajin was right, it seems to be the truth...
What I have been thinking about is how to digest it. It has always been "me" and "it". How can we integrate it?
You shouldn't pay attention to it, it's not a problem, the algorithm of the program is wrong, the direction is wrong...
"Haha!" She suddenly beamed with joy, and messy new ideas surged in her heart, which was the dawn of a breakthrough.
"The mentality, yes, it's the mentality." She looked at Gu He again, with light in her eyes, and asked Fan Debao hurriedly: "Old Fan, is he going to become an extraordinary Cowherd? I think it can be done, very soon.
OK!"
She drained the remaining half bottle of Fenggu, and also drained the cup she had just poured to Gu He.
"Enough! Gu He, right? If I can completely fuse this hand, you will be my darling, and you will be rewarded!"
She put down her wine glass, stood up in a hurry, and walked out of the store with her long legs, "Let's go!"
The female mercenaries next to them were responsible for settling the bill, carrying the entire mirror box away from the bar, and happily followed the leader away.
Hey! Gu He had no choice but to call Captain Lorna.
What kind of rewards are there? Don’t write empty promises. You have gained quite a lot this time. Just pay for the treatment first...
Tipping is fine, but if you don’t even have a tip, isn’t it a waste of money...
Although he was quite unhappy, he showed off to Fan Debao and said, "Old Fan, don't you think she is a pretty good girl?"
Fan Debao was looking at him with a complicated and incomprehensible expression. Hearing this, he said: "From time to time, lunatics will think that they are on the broad road, but they will fall into the sewer through the manhole cover while walking.
"You pray she won't be like this this time, otherwise you will suffer."
"Don't keep calling people crazy..."
Gu He originally wanted to refute the criticism and ask for a commission on the bottle of expensive wine he just sold.
But the fish pond was Lao Fan's territory after all, and Lao Fan's expression was a bit scary. He didn't know each other as well as he did. He walked back to the sofa and continued to watch "Streamer Super Model Contest" that he had not yet finished.
On the TV screen, various tall beauties wearing various gorgeous clothes are walking on the catwalk.
The heat all over his body was no longer as strong as before, and the whirlpool of light in his mind kept turning, absorbing the power of the wine.
He thought that he was really drunk to have such a realistic imagination, but because of this, it was okay to hold on for another day.
But suddenly, Fan Debao picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, "That's it, the talent test is over."
"So fast? How am I doing?" Gu He asked, somewhat curious about the measurement and evaluation mechanism of this traditional method.
While watching the supermodel catwalk, I also healed a visitor. This nerve reaction speed, this psychological quality, this control, is the fourth gear stable? Is there an overdrive gear?
Seeing that Fan Debao didn't say anything and still had more to say, he said, "Well, turn on the TV, it's almost the awards ceremony."
"No."
"No, there will be a lingerie show later..."
Gu He wanted to say more, but as soon as he got up, he saw Fan Debao raising his hand and snapping his fingers, "Sleep!"
Bang! Gu He fell down at the sound. In less than a second, he was completely swallowed up by the sudden and huge sleepiness.
"Is the fragment about to be broken? No... I have been drugged? Lao Fan, please don't..."
This was Gu He's last horrified thought as he closed his eyes.
His body was right next to the sofa, and he immediately fell into a deep sleep, snoring like thunder.
Fan Debao continued to clean the wine glass behind the bar, observed it for a while, frowned and murmured: "He is obviously just an ordinary person."
…
By midnight, the rain had not stopped yet.
Yea, the metal door of the small aisle of the izakaya was opened, and Ayane Kumiko came over from the club.
She couldn't help but be a little confused when she saw Lao Fan eating and preparing late night snacks at the bar, while Gu He was fast asleep on the sofa.
"Old Fan, has the test been completed? Does Xiao He have any extraordinary talent?"
"This guy's talent is not very good. He can't absorb much of the effects of alcohol. His nerves are very calm. He doesn't have much speed. He can barely reach the third gear. It may work or not. It's just average. He's not a good material."
"Ah, did I see it wrong?" Ayin Kumiko suddenly looked disappointed, "I feel that Xiaohe is a pretty good person..."
"And then came Lorna, that crazy woman."
"Lorna has been here?" Kumiko Ayane looked around in surprise, but saw no signs of a fight, "What happened?"
Fan Debao stopped his wooden chopsticks, raised his own cypress wine bowl, and drank sake. He was still full of unanswered questions as he talked about it.
"This is the strange thing, very strange. Not only was this kid not afraid of Lorna, but he also talked and laughed with her. He also had some kind of Granny Ajin's treatment, which surprised Lorna, and she even ordered it
A bottle of thirty-year-old grain."
Lao Fan pondered and recounted the surprising situation before. The more he explained, the more unclear he became.
"Most people are tongue-tied when it comes to Lorna. This kid can perform like this. Taken together, he has a three-speed gear. He may also have some rare mental qualities. Overall, he can be as good as a four-speed gear."
Maybe...”
"That's great!" Kumiko Ayane clasped her hands in joy, "I saw it right!"
She showed a charming smile and already had a lot of expectations:
"Observe him for a while, and if there's no problem, let him try. Even if he can't become an extraordinary cowherd in the fourth gear, the third gear is enough to choose other suitable professions. Even if he is not that piece of the puzzle, he can have one more
Extraordinary beings are good for us."
"That's the truth, but there is something weird about this guy. I can't see through it. Are you sure he's just a wild dog?"
"Orphan wild dog, wandering from the Voodoo ruins." Ayin Kumiko nodded, "Xiao Zhuang from the Game Gang is my little brother, he will not lie to me."
Fan Debao wrinkled his fat face and thought for a while, but still had many lingering doubts.
"What if Xiao Zhuang was also deceived? I need to enter the spiritual network and find an old friend to inquire."
"Psychic network?" Ayane Kumiko fell silent and her smile faded a bit.
It is an extra-dimensional space that is considered to be the sea of consciousness of all living things in the world.
But no one knows exactly what happened. It was not built by any force, and no one can control it.
Only extraordinary people can enter the network. It is an endless ocean of consciousness, a boundless dark forest, and a place of complete disorder. Data hunters and information ghosts are hidden everywhere. It is more weird and dangerous than the real world.
"Is there any other way?" she said. Every time she enters the psychic network, it is a life-and-death adventure.
"If we invade this kid's head through brain-to-brain contact, we might drive him crazy."
Fan Debao took a decisive sip of wine and said, "I really can't keep searching blindly. I'd better go and inquire."
