Time goes downstream, life goes against the current

I stared at his smile, a thought came to my mind, a great fear began to spread, my hands unconsciously shaking.

He still smiled, looking at me who stepped backwards, fingers up at his mouth, made a gesture of silence, and said quietly, "She found out my secret."

In 1998, I had a senior classmate named Ge Jun. His hobby is different from people, I guess from the "Legal Daily" and other things to see hypnosis this thing, began to be enthusiastic about this.

There was a study session, the teacher in front of the grade papers. He was in full view of everyone, Shi Shi went up to the fifty-year-old man and said: "Now close your eyes, feel the ocean and blue sky, strip naked and jump in, let the warmth wrap your skin, okay, I count to five, you will immediately hit one hundred on the paper. One, two, three, four, five ......"

The whole room was silent, the old man slowly put down his pen and said, "If I strip naked and can make you really take a hundred percent, I don't really mind."

Later Ge Jun was criticized by the whole school, but did not write clearly why. The other classes circulated like crazy that the reason was that he was playing a rascal to the chemistry teacher who was about to retire.

Ten years after the college entrance exam, I didn't have much contact with him. Until by chance, I found out that he actually lived in the same neighborhood as me.

In 2008, a drunk driving case occurred in front of the neighborhood, hitting and killing seven people, three men and four women. The ground long blood stains, sprinklers came to wash the ground washed more than a clock. The drunk driver was arrested on the spot, his home was blocked by a group of people, there are reporters inside, should be directed to the driver's family.

Three weeks after the accident, both sides of the road are burning paper friends and relatives of the deceased, late at night can be heard at home crying. Once it was dark, the neighborhood was eerie, and there was a ghostly cry from the door. The old man said that the seven souls of the dead in vain to recognize the way home, this period, we should not go out at night is good.

One day because of overtime, home after 1:00 in the middle of the night. The cab driver had read the newspaper and would only stop at the entrance to the neighborhood. Into the door has no one, I walked around a pile of paper money still smoking, suddenly felt a chill behind, goose bumps suddenly up, do not dare to turn back, speed up the steps forward.

I can hear the sound of footsteps. A beat slower than mine.

Then someone called out to me: "Zhang Jiajia, are you Zhang Jiajia?"

When I turned around, I saw a bloody man, all crimson under the streetlight, blood dripping, with a hideous face, lunging at me. I was so scared that I passed out on the spot.

Wake up lying in bed at home, Ge Jun smiled and handed me a cup of hot tea.

I was dumbfounded, Ge Jun said that he also just happened to be home at the time and ran into me, so he hypnotized me and made a joke about it.

I stammered, "The blood man ......"

Ge Jun smiled and said, "It's a hallucination."

I said, "Then how did I get into the house?"

Ge Jun said, "Hypnotized, I commanded you to recognize the way to the home and open the door yourself."

I jumped out of bed and looked at him in horror.

Ge Jun picked up his phone and shook it at me, and when I looked, it was only two o'clock, which means the whole process took less than ten minutes.

I said, "Isn't hypnosis about saying to people that you feel the ocean and the sky and jumping down and being wrapped in warmth or something?"

Ge Jun said, "No, hypnosis mainly relies on rhythm. When people sleep, the rhythm of their heartbeat will slow down. But everyone's rhythm is different, and a highly skilled hypnotist can find your heart's rhythm in the shortest possible time, and then use outside influences to make your heart quickly enter the most suitable state for sleep. Then the frequency through the blood into the brain, and then control the torso, this is the first stage of hypnosis."

It dawned on me, "You are using that footsteps ......"

Ge Jun nodded his head.

I said, "According to your method of speaking, so easily hypnotize others, but also able to control each other, want him to do it, then is not ...... very dangerous?"

Ge Jun said, "Yes, this world is very dangerous."

I thought about it and said, "If the environment is very noisy, there is no way to hypnotize, right?"

Ge Jun shook his head: "It's easier whether it's quiet or noisy. I can even record the complete rhythm of hypnosis into the music and turn it into a colorful ringtone, and you will be hypnotized as soon as you call my phone."

I looked at him incredulously, "All of them?"

He was silent for a while and said, "It's only effective for some people, especially those who are strongly self-conscious, easily impatient and love to lose their temper with themselves, such people will be most disturbed by the external environment. For example, the train is particularly easy to sleepy, once in the middle of the night, hungry, can not restrain the desire to get up on the Internet, the phone full of software, the probability of such people being hypnotized far more than others."

I was also silent for a while and said, "Why are you still hanging out in the middle of the night?"

He said, "Because there are too many people looking for me, I came out to hide."

I froze and said in surprise, "No way ......"

He nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, it was my wife who bumped into someone."

I stared at his smile, a thought came to my mind, a huge fear began to spread, hands unconsciously shaking.

Still smiling, he looked at me who was stepping backwards, put his finger up to his mouth, made a gesture of silence and said quietly, "She found out my secret."

I retreated to the corner and asked, "What secret?"

Ge Jun didn't press closer, just smiled and said, "There are many, many people like me, existing in every corner of every city. Do you know who will hire us?"

Without waiting for my answer, he continued, "Don't guess. Come on, one, two, three, four, five, it's time to demolish your house."
