"Let's go and take a look inside."
That Shanshan nodded: "Okay, okay, but Xiaoning shouldn't go."
This was something Jing Yian hadn't expected. He had thought that the innocent girl wouldn't be able to detect Jiang Ningming's fear. But now it seemed that wasn't the case.
Shanshan is a bit naive, but surprisingly considerate.
Jiang Ningming wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Shan Shan: "You're scared and you want me to treat you again. What a hassle. Go walk around town and take a look at the food at those internet-famous check-in spots. If you like it, pack some for me."
Jiang Ningming didn't insist.
Jing Yian, on the other hand, looked at Shanshan. Although he knew that she might not be afraid, he still couldn't help but look at her worriedly: "Do you want to stay in?"
That Shanshan waved his hand: "It's okay, I've seen the real thing!"
Jing Yian's pupils shrank. Really? Really what? A real horror manor? Or a real ghost?
Without waiting for Jing Yian to react, Shanshan asked, "What other strange things are there in this house?" Then Shanshan stepped in.
As soon as they reached both sides, Jing Yian said, "Stop!"
Shanshan stopped obediently and began to look around. She stood there, first looked up, then looked around, and finally set her sights on the big locust tree behind her.
"Nine Palaces Dragon Trapping Formation! Mountains, water, trees, just a few layout changes are needed to form a layout. This Dragon Trapping Formation has been broken long ago, and now it's just a remnant. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Jing Yian looked at Shanshan in disbelief: "Do you understand the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams?"
Shan Shan shook his head. "I don't understand. I hate math the most. It's such a headache. This is what an old man I met after I left home taught me when he was playing with building blocks. Oh, and it was this old man who took me treasure hunting. We went to several imperial tombs back then. But the old man wouldn't let me take anything out."
After saying this, Shanshan still looked regretful. If the things were taken out from the imperial mausoleum, they must be antiques, so could they be sold for money?
Perhaps he noticed the expression on Shanshan's face, but Jing Yian reminded him, "Even if you take it out, you can't pay back the money. It's a national treasure that needs to be handed over. However, I didn't ask you to stand here to see some trap. In fact, I only understand architectural feng shui, not as deeply as you do. I can't see such profound things."
I just want to tell you that the distance between your feet from one step to another, do you feel a sense of awkwardness? "
That Shanshan was puzzled: "Awkward?"
"Yes, there's always a feeling that I can't jump over it, or that I'll jump over it. It's a bit like jumping on the grid in a game."
Hearing Jing Yian say this, Shanshan suddenly realized: "Yes. You are amazing, how did you know?"
Jing Yian smiled slightly: "From a psychological point of view, this involves a subtle response of our brain to spatial perception and movement anticipation.
When we are faced with a step gap, our brain will quickly make a judgment based on past experience and visual information, estimating how much force and amplitude we will need to expend to cross it.
If this distance is in an ambiguous state, neither the regular comfortable distance we are accustomed to nor obviously beyond our ability, the brain will fall into a brief entanglement and uncertainty.
Just like in the game of hopscotch, when the grid spacing is irregular, we will hesitate before jumping, worried about making mistakes.
This feeling of uncertainty can trigger inner uneasiness and awkwardness. Even if we eventually overcome it successfully, that underlying worry will still linger in our subconscious for a while, affecting our subjective feelings.”
That Shanshan felt that he understood, but he didn't quite understand. "So what impact does this have?"
"Keep going inside and you'll find out."
That flash nodded: "Oh, okay."
They were now in the courtyard of the house, with both sides leading to the gardens to the east and west. However, their goal was the buildings inside, so Shanshan didn't go to the sides, but continued forward to the main door of the house.
This time Shanshan was smart. When he came to the threshold of the building, he hesitated again and said, "Is this one too?"
But Jing Yian managed to get over it smoothly: "It works for you, but not for me. Keep going!"
Shanshan curled her lips: "Long legs? Why didn't you just jump two steps when you crossed the stairs just now?" Yes, the stairs just now were so annoying. One step was too hard to walk, and two steps required big strides. Each step was as awkward as the walk of a woman in her daily life.
Jing Yian smiled at Shanshan's reaction.
Shanshan stepped through the main door and came to the second door, subconsciously turning to the side. She had subconsciously dodged, but her hand still touched the door handle.
That Shanshan asked uncertainly: "Is this considered the case?"
Jing Yian smiled and said, "Okay."
This time, Shanshan didn't think anything of it and continued walking in. But looking at the corridor, he couldn't help but feel a headache again.
If she had just stepped over the threshold of the second door, she could have gone directly to the courtyard. From the courtyard, she could have walked directly to the front. However, she chose to go this way and found that there was only a path leading to the corridor, and there was no intersection from here.
Shanshan expressed this idea, and Jing Yian nodded again: "That's right."
That Shanshan curled his lips and said: "The person who built this house must be a stingy person, otherwise why would he build so many petty things."
This time Jing Yian laughed heartily: "That's true, but it also shows that this person is indeed very scheming. He understands people's hearts very well."
That Shanshan was speechless: "Then why didn't they just tear it down when they were not repairing it?"
Jing Yian pointed to her and said, "Look here, these may seem like a bunch of little troubles piled up, but their structure is actually very clever.
This threshold was designed to be a support point for the house in front of it. If it were removed, it would be like the house collapsing. However, since it wasn't something that needed to be fixed, between what was important and what was not, I naturally chose to keep it.
That Shanshan pointed to the steps outside: "If we can't change here, the steps outside are okay, right?"
Jing Yian smiled and nodded: "Okay, but if this place is not changed, what difference does it make whether the steps outside are changed or not?"
That Shanshan nodded: "It seems so."
Jing Yian laughed again: "Most people would think so, so it stayed. So, can you tell that the designer is really good?"
Shan Shan got goose bumps all over her body after hearing this: "Tired, it's really tiring to live like this."
Jing Yian agreed with this: "Maybe it's because there are things here that must be protected, so we have to do this. Who doesn't want to live a simple life? It's just that sometimes we have no choice."
This may be the reason why he will stay in that shining live broadcast room forever.
Jing Yian had stayed in Puff's livestream because he thought the girl was innocent, but he discovered that everything was fake and her innocence was just an act. He had seen the complexity of human minds, and he himself was a complicated person. If you stay in the dark for a long time, you will naturally seek the light.
When people like him are surrounded by too much complexity, they are inexplicably attracted to simple people. This attraction is like the way a smoker who has quit cannot bear to see an unextinguished cigarette butt on the ground and can't wait to pick it up and take a puff.
That Shanshan is not dull or stupid in the traditional sense. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that she is not stupid at all. But she is white.
It’s not the “white” of idiot, but the clear and straightforward one.
The fact that she could directly scold Puff during the live broadcast shows that she has a straightforward personality and doesn't like people beating around the bush with her. The fact that she could directly apologize to Zhizhi also shows that she is willing to take responsibility for her actions. This is also a kind of straightforwardness.
Furthermore, this girl had promised to send gifts to her fans, and she actually kept making various desserts every day and then sent them to her fans. From the beginning, she could only make 100 copies using traditional tools, but now she can make 500 copies using modern appliances.
However, even with 80,000 people, it would take a long time to complete. But she still persisted in doing it.
As for understanding, Shanshan always knew what she wanted, her current situation, and her leverage. She knew how to capitalize on her strengths and weaknesses.
In other words, she has never been the type to put herself in a difficult position, either physically or mentally.
She is the kind of person who can live a comfortable life in her comfort zone.
Then there's her sense of right and wrong, which is also white. Jing Yian finds it hard to imagine what kind of environment could raise someone who sees no gray in their world. Only in the world of children does right and wrong exist. In the world of adults, there's only profit.
So, rather than saying that Shanshan is a fool, it would be more accurate to say that she lives a transparent life.
But she always bounces back and forth between innocent and insightful. But no matter which one she is, she is the one that people like him long to be close to.
Jing Yian's judgment of Shanshan was actually quite accurate. If it was Shanshan before she traveled through time, she would have been truly naive. Someone as naive as Shanshan, yet intelligent and possessing a clear outlook on life, would always be attracted to those who have experienced some vicissitudes of life.
Because I can see my youthful self in her.
This may also be the reason why Shanshan is liked by so many people in Yaowang Valley.
And now she was indeed more insightful. Having experienced life and death, and the possibility of death at any moment, one could always see through many things. The memories of these three people had prevented her from becoming demented, and it was because of her life experience that she had been helped.
Shanshan has a wealth of knowledge, which was imparted to her intentionally or unintentionally by those people. She never cared about it before, especially after she came into contact with tea therapy.
However, a time travel changed her life, and some memories she had previously forgotten became clearer. It was also because of these memories that she was able to be herself calmly after facing the two different memories of her original self and the strategist, instead of being lost in the memories of both.
