Pivot of the Sky
Chapter 160: 158, I'm a Cat
What is Amon doing as their god when Moses and others embark on a painful journey? Ammon sent envoys to guide them on their path back home, through years of strenuous efforts and preparation, but when the day truly arrived, Ammon himself had no time to worry.
……
A cat, a cat that roamed Isis Temple Square hundreds of years ago, is the Amon of the moment.
It's not that Amon went back hundreds of years, or that he became a cat himself, it's a very special state of meditation, and it may not be appropriate to call it meditation anymore. After experiencing the test of losing power and rebirth, if it makes any difference, Amon today is the self he has always sought in his lifetime of faith.
It is only by proving this state of affairs that it is possible for him to reach a state - a state where nothing exists, where the body and the world become void. Schrödinger squatted across from him and unfolded his soul world to Amon unreservedly.
Amon is going through Schrödinger's past, not just seeing or hearing, but feeling everything in Schrödinger's own capacity. In the process, he must be absolutely calm and forget me. There must be no confusing disturbances, otherwise everything he has experienced will become untrue.
That's why Schrödinger waited until today, and in this state, she opens up all her secrets without reservation, so Schrödinger is looking for someone she absolutely trusts!
Ecuadorians love cats, a long tradition. The cat came to Ecu and solved the rat problem in many places. It was regarded as the servant of the god of abundance, so around Isis Temple Square, people have always had the habit of feeding cats. There are many stray cats living here, Schrödinger is one of them.
Cat food is complicated, and in addition to eating people's food, there are usually rats, birds, termites, grasshoppers and other flying insects. Ordinary people have a hard time imagining themselves eating live rats, but everything feels real, and in this case they can't even think about it, and it's Amon right now.
This is a curious kitten, not afraid of people, but naturally alienated, not too close. Every time there are all sorts of great festivals and crowds gathered in the square, the cats run blind. But one day, Schrödinger chased a flying beetle, unconsciously forgetting the environment, and when he returned to God, he found that his feet were all around him, and there was nowhere to hide in a crowded crowd.
It freaked out, and a kitten was trapped in a surge of people, most likely trampled to death. Just as it panicked, it found everyone around it immobilized and knelt in one direction. The sky sends a loud chant, the temple bell rings loudly, and the cat looks up and sees the golden sky with a soft light falling on it.
It's an unspeakable magic feeling, and the cat forgets to be scared and no longer trembles like an invisible hand touching the depths of her soul. It happened to catch up with the annual Isis Goddess Blessing Festival, perhaps coincidentally or as a sudden understanding, and it experienced the “Isis Blessing” divine art in the most frightening of moments, which seemed to obscure what it understood.
Since then, the cat has often snuck into the temple, and its simple wisdom has not been able to do complex thinking, just looking for the familiar feeling in memory, in the singing voice of the priests, in the gaze of the idols. The intuition of a cat is much more acute than that of a human being, and it remembers the singing, “attending” many temple rituals.
The priests thought the kitten was interesting, and instead of playing in the square, they were willing to come to the temple to observe the rituals of the clergy, like a little cleric, and when it was ripe, nobody even cared about it, and people even gave it a name —— Best.
Best does not know how many Awakening Ceremonies of Strength he has experienced, including many Second Awakening Ceremonies of Strength for Great Warriors by the Great Mages, and various blessings. Of course, it is not the protagonist of the ritual, but a lively kitten that stands by the feet of people, and the priests in the temple already know the habit of the cat, do not expel it, but find it interesting.
A cat usually has a life span of just over a decade, but the kitten has lived for nearly a hundred years, and it is not clear that it has such a long life span that everything is done by pure and pure instincts. Long years have allowed it to gradually have clear memories, which open the door to thinking, which in turn allows it to learn and understand spontaneously.
From one day on, when he lay on the shelf and saw the clerics teaching divine words, he suddenly realized that he had actually heard them countless times, reading them word for word.
These are not Schrödinger's memories, but the marks that are imprinted in his soul. Amon unfolded his soul to open them, and went through all this like Schrödinger did for many years. When Schrödinger suddenly realized that he “knew” God, the time for reality had passed just one night.
This is a difficult concept to understand, as if it were a paradox of time. Among Ming Ming sat for only one night and went through many years. Time did not slow down or fast, but the mark in Schrödinger's soul unfolded so much. If he did not achieve what he has achieved today, it would not only be difficult to accept, but it might also fragment the impact of self-consciousness.
When the sky was bright, Amon opened his eyes. After this night, he felt his soul was strong and weak. Powerful means being able to accommodate more at a glance, like reading a book, sweeping it and printing the entire book into your head, even clearer than ordinary people study it carefully. Weakness is a drain that has reached its limit, and if it does not stop, Amon is likely to be completely lost in Schrödinger's soul trail and enter a deep state of coma shock.
Amon grew out of his breath and asked in a tired voice, "Is this where you came from? Are you letting me go through this the way you unlocked the seal of confinement? ”
Schrödinger shook his head: "No, this is just the beginning. You need to know exactly what I've been through before you can find out what the seal is that holds me captive. ”
Amon asked unexpectedly, "What's the seal? Don't you even know that? So how do I solve it? ”
Schrödinger sighed: "It is in my soul trail. When I spread my soul towards you, my own consciousness was stagnant and I did not know exactly what you were going through. Only then can you have a clearer sense than myself, what did you learn earlier? ”
Amon laughed: “I was just you. When I opened my eyes, I thought of someone. Well, it can't be said that it's a man, it can be said that it's an Iron Armored Beast. ”
Amon thought of the Cloud Dream because the Cloud Dream learned God not long ago. How can an Iron Armor write? In fact, Amon didn't really understand, he was just letting Link teach him, but at this moment he witnessed the whole process of a cat opening up intelligence, and there was a lot of coincidence, and even he didn't realize it himself, like the light in the sky suddenly lit something.
Schrödinger's face was a little stunned: "So you've been through so much? And then there was the real confusion, and as a cat, I didn't understand how I was. You need to get some rest and get back on track. ”
Amon took a full day off, feeling that he was still not recovering that night, not that his powers were exhausted, but that it was a fatigue that made it difficult for him to accommodate the marks in another soul. Schrödinger waited patiently for another two days before starting again on the third day.
……
When a cat realizes she understands God and even writes the name "Best” with her claws, the way she thinks changes, and her real confusion begins. The cat didn't know what it was like, it was obviously different from other cats, and when it woke up from the obscurity of the nightmare, it realized that the cats that were wandering with it in the Temple Square were long gone, and it didn't know how many generations had passed since its birth or death, and it was still alive.
Why is this, what is life? This is the first question it has in mind. The cat's eyes adapted to the darkness and his body was much more flexible and agile than a human being, and he had lived the same age as a human longevity, so he began to wonder if he was a cat? If so, what kind of cat? There's another deeper question: What kind of cat does it want to be?
When looking up at the statue countless times during the quiet night, the cat suddenly had a “ridiculous” thought in its mind - it wanted to be a “cat” like that.
That is, from this day forward, not only can its eyes see everything in the darkness, but also close their eyes to clearly perceive their body blood, it is spontaneous mastery of theological meditation.
A cat's body, it doesn't look like a person at all, but it's almost as different from a person in terms of origin. Schrödinger often strolls around the Temple Square, seeing people in various ways, one of whom is himself, not a specific person, but an image that countless people abstract, called Best, which the priests call his name.
When a cat meditates, there is a strange circumstance that cannot be experienced as a human monk, and it is truly transformed into the image of a person with the same body and skin. This is the "person” that exists in the conscious world, and in the real world, it's still a cat, and this person is growing up and practicing.
This spiritual cat has never practiced any magic in the temple. Its cultivation is merely a testament to thought. In fact, from the day it became self-conscious, it was more powerful than a lion, but no one had ever done it.
Best gradually became a mascot in the temple, and it was regarded by priests as a magical cat, because it lived long enough and mirrored the temple for many years, symbolizing the grace of the gods.
The cat started her own practice, very unique, unlike anyone else in the temple. It cannot be formally educated, nor does it have any stereotypes in its mind. It merely practises whatever it thinks of, nor does it have the concepts of theology and body art, which have been inadvertently put to the test. Finally, one day it decided to make a joke with a little priest who suddenly used information magic, and the little priest saw not a cat, but a woman named Best.
The second sign of the soul unfolded much shorter than the previous one, but Amon felt more tired when he opened his eyes because the experience contained too much. Schrödinger was no longer an ignorant kitten at the time, and in many ways it was a human experience, but it was more complicated than ordinary people. Amon had been through this night for 10 years.
He couldn't even breathe and sat there for half a day before saying: "Schrödinger, you are beautiful! ”
Schrödinger's tone is actually a little embarrassing: "You mean cats or people? ”
Amon smiled and didn't answer, and Schrödinger slipped out. This time Amon took a full five days rest, he was in a bit of a trance, he didn't even know if he was a cat or a person, the integration of this soul is terrible, if not powerful enough mindset, definitely cause neurological disorder. Amon, who was under the age of twenty, had lived as a cat for hundreds of years, and trance was inevitable, but he could calm down again.
He also fully understood how important the test just passed was, as Maria once asked him, "You were a passers-by near the Ronnie River, but then you became a general of Mighty Earthquake Mainland. Are you still a passers-by on the battlefield? When you return with honor, you surrender your military authority and cannot leave your territory, in which you are still a general on the battlefield? Are you sitting in front of me right now with your head down, or that innocent teenager in Duke Town? If not, who are you? If so, who's Amon? ”
Amunheran finds himself becoming more and more powerful as he experiences Schrödinger's soul marks, and grows more than mere power, which can be described as a “potential” or “capacity” of the soul.
……
Five days later, at midnight, Schrödinger unveiled his soul imprint again - looking up at the statue of Isis, the majestic and holy goddess. It was on the night it played a little priest with information and suddenly felt a strange pressure as it walked past the main temple. The idol's gaze was on, and the cat had already sensed it, but today it's different.
I don't know why, the cat turned around and fell down toward the statue, burying his furry head between his forepaws, like a prayer for prayer, and then it heard a voice: "Best, don't be afraid, I'm Isis! ”
Of course the cat knows who Isis, he has lived in the temple for centuries, and today he hears Isis voice in his mind! The soul is enveloped by a deep awe, and it crawls in its heart and answers, “Great Goddess, are you calling me? ”
Isis' voice was solemn and soft: "You naughty little cat, I saw what you did, and it was a rare fortune for you to achieve this, and I decided to give you a chance. Please take your oath and accept the guidance of the Klux Divine System, and I will tell you exactly what path you have been pursuing. ”
