Volume 1 The Year of the Phoenix Chapter 2 The Six Paths of Reincarnation
It's night, and the sky is clear and the stars are bright.
A man dressed in white walked out of the side door of the general's mansion, the man probed left and right, and then hurried into the vast night, the starlight was faint, but the man's face was as white as fat jade, this person was the Taishi Ling of Wei State.
As he walked, he looked at the night sky, with an anxious look on his face, and following the marks made during the day, he found a new grave.
"General Zhao, I'm here to help you!"
I saw that the steward took out a handful of flaky things from his arms, and quickly circled around the tomb, and then the cold light flashed, and he grabbed a dagger in his hand.
Guan Zhen looked up at the brilliant starry sky, and then fell his gaze on the tombstone, his eyes were full of solemnity, and suddenly frowned and turned his head and shouted:
"Who?"
"I don't know what Mr. Guan wants to do in front of General Zhao's tomb in the middle of the night, and he is holding a blade in his hand?"
There was a question and a little doubt in the voice of the visitor.
By the faint starlight, he could see clearly the person who came out from under the shadow of the tree next to him.
"It turned out to be Mr. Kong Ming," Guan Zhen shook the dagger in his hand, "Can I still come to kill people?" Of course, according to what I said during the day, to help General Zhao enter the reincarnation as soon as possible. ”
"Early reincarnation? Hmph! I know that you are good at astrological divination, but I have never heard that you still have the ability to go down to the netherworld. Kong Mingyan was angry, beckoned to the side, and four soldiers in armor and armed with iron spears came out of the shadow of the tree.
"During the funeral during the day, I saw that you behaved strangely, so I deliberately sent someone to keep an eye on it, but I didn't expect it to be guessed by me, fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise General Zhao I was famous, and he would be desecrated by villains like you when he died!"
"Haha!" Guan Lu raised his head and laughed, and then said loudly: "Blasphemy against General Zhao? Although I am not a hero, I must not be a villain in Mr. Kong Ming's mouth!"
Seeing Guan Lu holding a dagger and laughing so presumptuously, a soldier next to him finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Prime Minister, this person is too arrogant, wait for his subordinates to tie it up and hand it over to General Zhao Tong." “
Kong Ming waved his hand to stop, "Okay, I still have something to ask him." ”
"What is that rune paper that General Zhao Tong pasted during the day?"
"Indeed, it is not a Qinglu talisman, but a reincarnation talisman, without that talisman, the heavenly luck will not be able to find the location of General Zhao, and reincarnation will be impossible. ”
Kong Ming saw that Guan Zhen was serious, and asked: "Even if reincarnation really exists, as you said, that person will go to the rumored Hades after death, why do you need to intervene?"
"Kong Ming, people say that you know astronomy and geography, but you don't know enough. The tube shook his head abruptly.
Then he said:
"After death, the body returns to the dust, and the soul spirit is freed from the shackles, passes through the nine gates, enters the reincarnation, and then is reincarnated and reborn in the present world, which is the reincarnation of ordinary people;
Guan Zhi, who looked up at the night sky, suddenly tightened his arms and said urgently: "Kong Ming, I can't wait! If you have anything to ask later, I will definitely not make a big rebellious and unethical act!"
After speaking, without waiting for Kong Ming to react, he held the dagger blade in his left hand, pumped it hard, and threw the dagger out without frowning.
Kong Ming was surprised by the action of the chariot, this is a dagger to slash the palm of the hand, what is this chariot going to do? Is it really as he said?
I saw the steward clenching the palm of the crossed hand, leaning over and walking around the grave, and then returning to the tombstone to meditate cross-legged, with words in his mouth.
Just when Kong Ming and a few soldiers didn't know why, suddenly, a purple lightning flashed in the night sky, Kong Ming looked up, the lightning had passed, and the seven stars of the Big Dipper, which were originally regularly arranged, had a strange scene that he had never seen in his life.
The soldier next to him also noticed the sky vision, rubbed his eyes and said, "Huh, why are the stars in the sky moving, am I mistaken?"
"You read that right, it's moving. ”
Kong Ming closed his eyes, his brows were solemn, but his fingers kept pinching.
I don't know when a strong wind blew, and the body of the pipe sitting cross-legged in front of the tombstone was like a rock, and the white fur on his shoulders swayed with the wind.
"Look! The stars in the sky form a circle. The soldier shouted.
Kong Ming opened his eyes and looked up, and sure enough, the Big Dipper had departed from its original trajectory, and the seven stars formed a circle in the night sky, and the Big Dipper was facing the east.
The pipe in front of the tombstone seemed to be aware, the gesture on his chest changed rapidly, and he spit out the word "citation" in his mouth.
When the voice fell, I saw the Big Dipper in the sky, shooting out seven pillars of light, each pillar of light emitted a clear purple light, looking like a huge barrel-shaped light curtain falling straight down, just enveloping Zhao Yun's tomb inside.
Guan Qi quickly withdrew from the light curtain, and then stared at the scene in front of him with the same solemn eyes as Kong Ming.
Not long after the purple light curtain fell, the changes regenerated, and purple lightning poured down from the center surrounded by the seven stars, hitting Zhao Yun's tomb like countless tentacles.
Suddenly, the new tomb fell apart, and the soil turned into dust and drifted in the light curtain.
Seeing such a scene, Kong Ming was a little stunned, and turned to Guan Zhen and said angrily:
"Why!"
At this time, the steward had a confident expression, pointed in the direction of the grave and said indifferently: "Look again." ”
Kong Ming turned his head to look, only to see a transparent humanoid silhouette slowly rising in the dust, and couldn't help but say, "This is?"
"This is General Zhao's soul, and he is about to enter the six realms of reincarnation. "There is joy in the words.
The strange thing was that no matter how fierce the purple lightning was, it only stirred up scene after scene of dust in the aperture, but Zhao Yun's soul was not affected in the slightest, and it was rising.
As soon as Kong Ming was about to speak, he listened to Guan Yuan and explained: "General Zhao is a rare Jin Yuan body, and his soul is the essence of Jin Yuan, so these thunderbolts not only can't hurt his soul, but also help remove impurities, you can rest assured." ”
When everyone raised their heads to the top, the transparent soul finally stopped motionless in the center of the seven stars, and for some reason it was so far away, but everyone could still see it clearly.
After a while, the soul that stopped in the middle of the seven stars still did not change, and Kong Ming was about to ask, when he saw Guan Lu pat his head and hurriedly said, "How did you forget this!"
After finishing speaking, he was about to run to the grave, and as soon as he took a step, he was stopped by Kong Ming.
"What are you going to do?"
"The last soul card has not yet returned to its place, without this soul card, General Zhao will not be able to enter the reincarnation smoothly!"
"In such a situation, wouldn't you be dissipated in the past now!"
"If the soul card is missing, General Zhao will be gone!" Guan Yuan broke open Kong Mingchao's tomb and ran.
Kong Ming was a little stunned, he didn't understand why this steward was so persistent, even if he gave his own life, he asked De Zilong to transfer to reincarnation, not to mention whether reincarnation was true or not, this steward was really a person worth befriending, wouldn't it be a pity to die like this.
Kong Ming, who had a friendship in his heart, just came back to his senses, and saw that Guan Lu had rushed into the dusty light curtain, countless purple lightning bolts were still falling, and the people who went in had no movement.
Kong Ming let out a sigh, "Well, I hope everything he said is true." ”
Kong Ming's eyes were a little blurry, but he could clearly see that in the rolling dust in the light curtain, a yellow light suddenly appeared, rushing to the sky, and went straight to Zhao Yun's soul in the center of the Seven Stars.
The seven stars began to revolve around the yellow pillar of light, and then the stars gradually dimmed, and when the light dissipated, six large lilac halos appeared, each with a vortex in the center.
The yellow pillar of light contracted from the bottom up, and finally merged into Zhao Yun's soul, which began to slowly shrink under the six huge halos, and finally disappeared.
"Is this the six realms of reincarnation?"
Kong Ming stared at the night sky for a long time, until the sky was clear, and the Big Dipper returned to its original position.
"Prime Minister, I didn't find the man's body. The soldier replied.
The light curtain and thunder and lightning had all disappeared, and the original tomb was now a circular depression, and there was a faint amount of dust wafting around, and several soldiers jumped into it as if they had jumped into a noodle tank, and after searching for a long time, they could not find even a piece of ornament.
"Don't look for it, you guys put the grave back up, and besides, don't mention today's incident to anyone. ”
Several soldiers went to dig up the soil and fill the grave, but Kong Ming held a yellow and purple talisman in his hand, and stood lonely in the night sky and pondered, why can the Big Dipper correspond to the six realms?
After a long time, several soldiers finally re-piled the tomb, only a tombstone was missing, and a few people were about to report to the prime minister, preparing to make a new tombstone during the day, only to find that Kong Ming, who was still on the side, had long since disappeared.
Ten days later.
Liu Chan saw the finished "Teacher Table" in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and wept while reading it, and finally let out a long sigh: "Father, since you want to go on the Northern Expedition, then go there, but where have you gone now? Do you really want to leave this Shu Kingdom alone?"
The cold wind entered the room, Liu Chan coughed a few times, and his entourage stepped forward to add clothes, but Liu Chan was unaware.
