Chapter 919 The Ideal Country

The two-headed bird recalled her assassination experiences. She felt that the reason she was able to maintain such a high hit rate was because she would enter a strange state when aiming.

In that state, she would become one with the environmental goal.

This state is very similar to what Grek described: there is no distinction between subject and object. The entire world is one's own domain.

And when she pulls the trigger, the target is essentially dead, even before the bullet reaches their head.

But the two-headed bird knew the other was dead. The feeling was subtle.

This wasn't absolute confidence, but rather a natural emotion. It was as if the other person was meant to die at that moment.

And once the target dies, that state disappears.

Actually, the two-headed bird's marksmanship wasn't very good, but when she aimed at living creatures, her bullets seemed to have eyes.

However, if she aims at inanimate objects, her accuracy drops drastically. Therefore, the two-headed bird will not fire unless absolutely necessary.

"You make it sound so easy, but getting into that state isn't easy. Do you mean that if you just hypnotize yourself and make yourself feel that everything is actually one with you, then external things won't hinder you?" the two-headed bird asked.

“That’s hard to say. All I can say is that in that situation, external circumstances will try their best to cooperate. But whether things succeed or not depends on fate,” Grek said.

"For example, if a baby is born into a good family, and his parents treat him well and keep him satisfied most of the time, then the baby's self-concept will develop more slowly."

"A slow process of self-formation may seem like a bad thing. But it is actually a good thing. Because if a baby can be satisfied during childhood, his future life will be very smooth."

"His heart will be gentler, and his IQ and EQ will be higher."

"On the contrary, if an infant does not receive enough fulfillment in childhood, he will become timid and cowardly later in life. He will think that the environment around him is unsafe, that he is weak and unable to control his surroundings."

"Children like this will not have a very happy life when they grow up."

“That’s why parenting experts say that the period before a child turns seven is very important. Childhood experiences will affect them for a lifetime,” Grecker said.

“But indulging a child without limits will only spoil him, won’t it?” the two-headed bird said.

"Haha~ Actually, it's very difficult to satisfy children without limits in real life. After all, children's imaginations are boundless, and in many cases, parents can't fulfill their wishes."

"So even in the most perfect family, children will encounter rejection. And these rejections will gradually help them distinguish between subject and object, and their sense of self will emerge from these rejections. This world is ultimately imperfect," Grek remarked.

"Hehe~ So according to you, children can only achieve true fulfillment if they exist in a world where their wishes come true?" the two-headed bird asked.

“That’s right.” Grek actually nodded.

"Hmph! I didn't expect you to be such a dreamer," the two-headed bird mocked.

“It’s not just wishful thinking; the world I’m talking about actually exists,” Grek said.

"Nonsense!" the two-headed bird shook its head.

“Haven’t you ever thought that our inner world is actually our core? And the real world is just a fixed and boring one,” Grek said.

"Hehe~" The two-headed bird instinctively reached for a cigarette, because she really didn't want to hear these escapist words. However, she quickly remembered that she had a baby in her arms. She stopped reaching for the cigarette and turned her head to the side.

"You mean, encourage everyone to immerse themselves in their own fantasies? And then abandon their work and live a life of debauchery?" the two-headed bird asked lazily.

"That's not what I meant. What I meant was that, from the perspective of one's inner world, the real world is actually just a dream. If we can realize this, people won't be in so much pain."

"The real world is a solid cage built by the collective consciousness of countless lives. It is real because everyone believes it to be real."

Greck pointed to the streetlights outside the window.

"See those two streetlights? They light up when night falls. If we compare them to two independent living beings, then the overlapping area illuminated by their light sources is the real world. And the world outside the overlapping area is their inner world."

"The reason why the overlapping part is called the real world is because even if one of the streetlights goes out, the light in the overlapping part will not disappear. It will still be illuminated by another streetlight."

"From the perspective of another street lamp, that overlapping part is the real world, and it is so real. Even if the other companions are destroyed, the world in that overlapping part can still be seen."

"So all the energy of this street lamp begins to focus on the world of the overlapping parts, because it believes that is the reality there."

"But in reality, everything within its light is its inner world. When it goes out, both the inner world and the real world fall into darkness."

“The example I gave is just a simplified one. After all, the world is so small, yet it is teeming with countless lives. These lives are like those streetlights, illuminating an overlapping area and recognizing that area as reality.”

“All life crowds in that area, vying for illusory resources. They all ignore the part that doesn’t overlap, but in fact, that part of the world is no different from the overlapping part.”

"Everyone is working hard in the so-called real world, but they don't realize that they already have everything they need. Because in their own inner world, anything can be created."

“If everyone could recognize this, they would become incredibly content. Many tragedies in the world would not happen,” Grecker said.

"You have quite the imagination! I never knew you were a philosopher~" The two-headed bird understood, but she didn't agree.

"If we follow your logic, then wouldn't all life become meaningless? If we look at the outside world from within our own hearts, the outside world is also an illusion. Then what's the point of us living?" the two-headed bird asked.

“It will be very interesting because our inner world is boundless and rich in content, containing many worlds we wouldn’t even dare to imagine. As long as we see through the illusion of the real world, we won’t be bound by it. When we are no longer bound by it, that is when we are truly free,” Grek said earnestly.

"Not bound by the real world? What a joke! If you indulge in fantasy and don't work, you'll probably starve to death, won't you?"

"Will we be free after we die?"

"Hehehe~ I'm sorry, but I'm a staunch realist. Even if what you say makes a lot of sense, I won't agree with it," the two-headed bird said.

“Maybe you really will be free after death.” Grek nodded with a smile, then glanced at the baby in the two-headed bird’s arms.

Actually, he wasn't saying these words to the two-headed bird; he was saying them to the baby.

The baby may appear to be sleeping, but he is actually listening the whole time.

"What exactly is the God of Learning trying to say? He's a deity; he shouldn't speak carelessly. Is this world really an illusion? Is our inner world our true reality?"

“No, no! He’s a liar! We can’t believe what he says…” Bao Bao frowned, feeling conflicted.

He was reincarnated with his memories intact, so he knew that when a person dies, they don't really die, but are truly reborn as a new life.

"Now it seems that the mind is immortal. From this perspective, the words of the god of learning seem to be true. Our inner world is our true nature. On the contrary, the authenticity of this external world is questionable."

The baby began to carefully recall the entire process of his reincarnation.

“The god of learning guided me, and I thought I could return to my body. But when I regained consciousness, I was already a baby.”

"Does this mean that, in my journey between life and death, I can choose the world I am born into?"

The baby has some guesses.

"And death is indeed not scary, it's just that the death of ordinary people comes at a great cost, their memories are erased. That's why people feel that there is no life after death."

"From this perspective, it seems the god of learning didn't lie to me. He did indeed resurrect me. It's just not the kind of resurrection I wanted."

Thinking about this, the resentment in the baby's heart was relieved a lot.

"Sigh~ I really want to have a serious talk with him right now. It's just a pity that I can't even speak clearly right now... Maybe I should wait until he's older."

The baby opened his eyes and waved his little hand at Grek.

"Hmm? This child doesn't seem afraid of you anymore," the two-headed bird said.

"Haha~ Let me hold you!" Grek stepped forward and took the baby into his arms.

This time, the baby didn't resist or scream. He just stared at Greke with his dark eyes.

“My dear baby, this world is yours. Treat it like a game, and you’ll be very comfortable. But be careful not to let the game play you,” Grek said.

"That's enough! He's just a baby. Keep your philosophical theories to your patients," the two-headed bird roared.

She didn't want her baby's values ​​to be distorted, and the two-headed bird always felt that Grek was somewhat abnormal. Or are all psychologists like this? Having listened to so many patients' stories, they themselves begin to become warped.

However, after hearing these words, the baby giggled.

Because he knew it was the god of learning reminding him.

After the baby realized he wouldn't actually die, his perspective on the world changed, and he knew how he should live.

Grek lifted the baby high, and the two-headed bird quickly got up to prevent Grek from falling and hurting the baby.

Looking down from this high vantage point, the baby's arms and legs seemed to grow longer without him noticing. The surrounding scenery also changed rapidly, finally settling on a grassy field.

When the baby came to his senses again, he was already one and a half years old.

This time, the person holding him up wasn't Greck, but a two-headed bird.

The two-headed bird's appearance hadn't changed much, but her expression wasn't as cold anymore. After more than a year of getting to know her, she had become more and more human.

“Sweetie~ Your dad will be here to pick you up soon,” the two-headed bird said.

"Auntie...where's Uncle Greg?" the baby asked.

“He’s over there.” The two-headed bird held the baby in its arms and pointed into the distance.

Meanwhile, Greck and Parker, wearing construction safety helmets, were talking to some workers.

Because I was standing too far away, the sound from that side couldn't reach me.

In the distance, the sounds of various construction sites could be heard constantly. If one looked down from above, one would be surprised to find that almost the entire city was under construction.

Construction is underway not only in affluent and middle-class areas, but also in impoverished neighborhoods.
