Chapter 152: One Heart
Due to the death of his old subordinate, Ren Lian Lingyi was in a bad mood for several weeks.
Although this was not the first time he had experienced such a thing, it was the first time that someone close to him had died, especially since Tianmu Uji was the type of person who often hung around Renlian Lingyi.
"By the way, Aying, don't you try to mediate him?" Lei Dianzhen said to Lei Dianying while looking at Ren Lian Lingyi, who was emitting a low aura.
"Sister, the only way to get through this kind of thing is to get out of it by yourself. You know that this is the wear and tear that the immortal species will inevitably experience." Lei Dianying said very seriously.
"And I believe him, and he has been prepared for this."
In fact, this was indeed the case. Ren Lian Lingyi's low mood only lasted for a few weeks, and then he turned back into the reliable attendant recorder who was full of strange ideas but handled problems calmly.
On the night when Ren Lian Lingyi recovered, Ren Lian Lingyi enjoyed the lap pillow service from Lei Dianying, and also learned about the so-called wear and tear from Lei Dianying.
Lying on the knee pillow, Ren Lian Lingyi listened to Lei Dianying talking about wear and tear.
“Determination, courage, love, hatred, even material and emotions, everything will deteriorate and distort over time, and wear and tear is not something uncommon. On the contrary, wear and tear is everywhere. However, the true meaning of practice is to use your heart to resist wear and tear.”
"A natural born demon god, if he does not have a strong heart, is also very susceptible to wear and tear."
"Even someone as strong as me has a hard time dealing with wear and tear. I can only resist."
"The passing of old friends is like a knife that deepens the wear and tear on us."
Ren Lian Lingyi touched his chin, lay down more comfortably and said, "I don't know if my admiration will deteriorate over time, but I know that I like you now."
Lei Dianying was stunned for a moment, this unexpected confession, so she also smiled and said, "Me too, don't worry, I will never become a wear and tear on you."
After Lei Dianying finished speaking, he continued to talk about some techniques for resisting wear and tear.
"The power of the heart is a power that I accidentally discovered when I was studying martial arts in my early years and can resist wear and tear."
"But pure mental power is extremely rare. Often, a mortal may not be able to generate such mental power in his lifetime."
"Moreover, the power of the mind is very easy to deteriorate and distort, and it is easy to weaken into various kinds of minds."
"For example, the swordsman's sword heart and your bow heart. Although such hearts are not as strong as pure hearts, they can still resist wear and tear."
“Originally, all minds originate from the fundamental mind, but if a mind is too strong, it will reversely affect the origin of the human mind.”
"Is it similar to my current situation?" Ren Lian Lingyi was a little curious.
"Yes, it's similar to your bow heart, but don't worry too much. The heart after the reverse infection is still a pure heart. I call this kind of heart one heart. It has the same power to resist wear and tear as a pure heart." Lei Dianying said.
"What about Kyoko's heart? It's like her heart is different from my Yumi heart."
"Xingzi is a pure heart, especially after she became a monster, her heart became even purer. I originally thought that her heart would be degraded to a warrior heart, but I didn't expect that she would remain pure all the time." Lei Dianying said with a smile, "This is something that even I haven't done. I am just one-minded like you."
Ren Lian Lingyi's mouth twitched. He seemed to have heard of this kind of mentality before. It was like the legendary innocent heart with a missing string in the brain.
"Then my bow heart is not the reason that prevents me from mastering the LV7 sword technique. Does it have anything to do with the law?"
"It's related to the bow heart, but not much, or it has something to do with time." Lei Dianying thought for a while and said, "Your bow heart is currently in the reverse infection stage, so it will hinder your understanding of other hearts."
"As for the law, what do you think the law is?"
After Lei Dianying said this, Ren Lian Lingyi reacted.
Gong Xin's reverse infection is now doing subtraction, preparing to unify all distracting thoughts into Gong Xin, becoming what Lei Dianying calls One Heart, but he is doing addition at this time, preparing to tear off a degraded part from the pure heart to form a sword heart. This is going against his own instincts and the instincts of his willpower, so naturally he cannot succeed.
And once you reach the One-Minded Realm, the limitation of not being able to break through LV7 of swordsmanship will naturally no longer exist.
The laws and this are not part of the same system and naturally will not affect each other. His previous knowledge told him that it was wrong.
"It seems that I also need to prepare to practice archery." Ren Lian Lingyi thought secretly. He has been busy making up for his shortcomings recently. Although he is still practicing archery, he has indeed fallen behind in his studies.
Lei Dianying is still talking about some ways to fight against wear and tear. In addition to the mental strength just mentioned, he also talked about the sword meditation of martial arts, the cave heaven hiding from disasters in Liyue, the sleeping incarnation of the wind god of Mondstadt, and many other ways to resist or avoid wear and tear.
However, Ren Lian Lingyi finally had to interrupt Aying who was speaking excitedly.
"Aying, it's time to go to work soon." Ren Lian Lingyi said.
It turned out that Lei Dianying had been talking all night without realizing it. After Ren Lian Lingyi prepared some desserts and fried tofu, the two came out of the cave in the pot and walked towards the castle tower side by side.
"Here~ the three-color dumplings and other desserts are yours, and the fried tofu is Xiao Shenzi's. I'm going to work."
"Well~ Go ahead and do your work. I'll go find the Son of God first."
"Recovered?" Lei Dianzhen asked Ren Lian Lingyi.
"Thank you for your concern, Sister Zhen." Ren Lian Lingyi said with a smile.
"I've experienced this kind of thing a lot." Lei Dianzhen smiled and handed over a few documents.
"Aren't you very concerned about the things in Kanruiya? Here are the official documents of the Kanruiyan people. I don't know what they are thinking." Lei Dianzhen complained.
"It seems that the growth of national strength has made them a little arrogant."
Raiden Zhen, as the indigenous god of Teyvat, had never experienced such a thing. On the contrary, Ren Lian Lingyi, the alien, saw it very clearly.
This document is a letter from Kanriya asking for an explanation and refusing compensation.
Although the tone was still somewhat euphemistic, the underlying meaning was: I will not pay compensation, on the contrary, my people have died and others have been arrested, you should release our people and compensate us.
Even Lingyi was so angry that he laughed. You, Kanruiya, have just started to get in touch with taboos, but you are so arrogant. Your brains are like water. I don't know who gave you the courage.
Ren Lian Lingyi also had no way to directly punish the country of Kanruiya, but since he couldn't punish the entire country of Kanruiya, did he really think he couldn't teach them a lesson?
