Yang Zhuochao said: So that's what it means! That demon god Rahu took away the house of the female child, meaning that he wanted to kill the child first?

Ge Lao Dao: This is not necessarily! Because this kind of spell is divided into two methods, one is to take away life, and the other is to take away death, and the life snatching is to replace the soul of the person who was taken away with his own soul, but still retain his spirit.

There are two situations of taking death, one is to take people, the other is to take away beasts, people have souls, but the souls of the dead people are scattered, so after taking away the soul, there is a soul, and you have to cultivate the soul, and the beast has a soul without a soul, and you don't have to cultivate the soul.

There were also people who practiced in Huanyu Huaxia before, because it was called "throwing ashes" in the "Lengyan Sutra", which was a kind of magic in a foreign land, and it was rumored that the demon monks in the Western Regions were very good at this kind of technique.

Someone once went to the border of the Western Regions, tired on the way, and rested next to a deserted temple. There was a dead camel in front of the temple gate, which had rotted to the point of decay, and the smell of rancid smell was unbearable in the wind!

He wanted to leave, but he felt exhausted and couldn't pull his legs. When he was hesitating, he saw an old monk with a young man coming over, and also sat down by the temple to rest, and the young man showed a look of disgust when he saw the rotting camel.

The young man commanded the old monk, "Apprentice, let this rotten horse leave quickly." ”

The old monk then closed his eyes, and remained motionless, as if he had settled down, and after a while the dead camel suddenly struggled to his feet, and ran downwind, and ran about a hundred feet before falling to the side of the road.

The old monk then opened his eyes, and said to the young man very respectfully that he had sent the horse away. And what this old monk is doing is the method of seizing away!

Yang Zhuochao said: Then this old monk must use the method of seizing the beast, because the beast has a soul and no soul, and there is no need to cultivate the spirit! So the old monk can immediately manipulate the dead horse to leave.

Ge Lao nodded and said, "Yes, this old monk is indeed using the method of snatching beasts!"

At this time, the white impermanence Xie Bi'an also came to Yang Zhuochao and Ge Lao's side, and said: It seems that the demon clan is not ready yet, and it is not enough for them to attack the city for a long time.

Yang Zhuochao quipped: Why does Lord Impermanence seem to particularly want the enemy to attack the city! Don't be so worried, as the saying goes, "the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth"! What is there to worry about? Look at you, you are like an ant on a hot pot!

Xie Bi'an smiled bitterly: "The immortals are making fun of me! Since the demon army came in, I haven't had a trace of idle time! It's also a hard life.....

Yang Zhuochao said: I remember that above Huanyu Huaxia, "Tao Yuanming" in the early Song Dynasty of the Southern Dynasty once wrote a "Peach Blossom Spring". The kind of paradise depicted in it is really fascinating! Does Lord Impermanence yearn for that kind of place now?

Xie Bi'an said: What the immortal said is a bit of a problem! Yang Zhuochao asked: Oh, what is the problem?

Xie Bi'an said: Because I happened to study the preface of Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Spring Poem", which is selected from "Tao Yuanming's Collection", and I happen to like this literati very much, so I found something strange!

I suspect that what Tao Yuanming is recording should be a dead world.....

Yang Zhuochao was obviously stunned after hearing this, and said: Your point of view is relatively novel, since you are Tao Yuanming's "fan", then you should have your unique opinion!

Xie Bi'an nodded and said: According to my careful study, I found eight of them:

Suspicion one, the fishermen are lost.

In the Jin Dynasty, the Wuling people fished for their business. Walk around the river, forget the distance of the road. Suddenly, there is a peach blossom forest, hundreds of steps between the shore, there are no miscellaneous trees in it, and the grass is delicious.

This Wuling fisherman, since he has made a living by fishing, should have been some years, maybe his father and his grandfather are all fishermen.

In this case, the fishing route should be familiar with the road, and you can touch the way home with your eyes closed, how can you "forget the distance of the road"? This is too unusual? Could it be that you have encountered a ghost hitting the wall?

Suspicion two, weird peach blossom forest.

The fisherman walked by the stream, walking, and suddenly a peach blossom forest flashed, extremely beautiful, brilliant and fragrant, fragrant, the fisherman often walked by this side, why did he never pay attention to this peach blossom forest?

"There are no miscellaneous trees" is even more strange, there are no villages near and far, and no one has homes, no one takes care of them, even if there is a peach forest, it should be overgrown with miscellaneous trees, and the mess is, how does "no miscellaneous trees" do it? Who planted the peach trees, and who is taking care of them?

Besides, the peach tree is originally a thing to drive away ghosts and evil spirits, could it be that there are ghosts and demons nearby, and this peach forest is here to stop them from haunting?

Suspicion three, the tomb road.

When the forest runs out of water, there will be a mountain, and the mountain has a small mouth, as if there is light. Drop off the boat and enter from the mouth. At the beginning, it is extremely narrow, and only then can it be passed. After dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear.

The fisherman walked on and on, and found a mountain with a hole at the foot of the mountain, and the fisherman got into it. This fisherman is so bold that when he sees a hole, he drills into it, and he is not afraid of poisonous snakes and beasts inside?

The entrance to the cave is very small, and the more you climb inside, the more spacious it becomes, and the fisherman is really drilling into a cave, not somewhere else, such as a cemetery?

Suspicion four, Qianmo.

The land is flat, the houses are like that, and there are good fields and beautiful ponds and mulberry bamboos. Qianmo traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other.

After the fisherman arrived at the Peach Blossom Spring, he found that the village was neat, the roads were clean, the layout was reasonable, and the construction of the new countryside was quite good. That's weird!

Ancient villages generally have no planning, no layout, are built in a mess of private buildings, and the peach blossom source is so neat and uniform, it is suspicious, which seems to confirm the previous inference, this is a tomb, you must know that the ancients regarded death as life, and the tomb was very particular.

Moreover, the meaning of the word "Qianmo" is not only a path, but also often refers to the road to the grave, and Tao Yuanming seems to have deliberately left a flaw.

Question five, there is wine and chicken.

In ancient times, it was not allowed to make wine privately, because in ancient times, there was little grain, and winemaking spoiled a lot of grain.

What's more, there are constant natural disasters outside, there are warps and chaos, and hunger is everywhere, and there is meat and wine in the Peach Blossom Spring, which is incredible! Could it be that these wines, these meats, are like toads and stones?

Question six, Qin Dynasty.

Since Yun Xianshi avoided the chaos of the Qin Dynasty, he led his wife and people to this desperate situation, and did not come back, so he was separated from outsiders. Ask what the world is today, but I don't know if there is a Han, regardless of Wei and Jin.

According to the villagers of Taohuayuan, they have come to this place since the Qin Dynasty, isolated from the world, and they have no idea what is happening outside, even the dynasty they are in now.

So the question is, since the fisherman came in from the cave, why didn't the villagers go out to find out? Since the fisherman can go out, the villagers can go out as well? Why don't they go out, are they afraid of something?

It's been 600 years, and no one wants to go outside and see the world?

The only plausible explanation is that they are dead, they are dead people! Dead people certainly can't get out, and they can't get out!

Question 7, I can't find the way I came.

Stop for a few days and resign. The Chinese said: "It is not enough for outsiders." "When you go out and get your boat, you will help you to the road, and you will do it everywhere. And the county, Yi Taishou, said so. Taishou immediately sent people to follow him, looking for what he wanted, and then he got lost and lost his way.

When the fisherman went back, the villagers repeatedly told him not to talk nonsense, but the fisherman was not honest, and made a lot of marks on the way back, and then reported to the Taishou, who hurriedly sent someone to find it, but he couldn't find it, and even the peach blossom forest disappeared!

How can this be explained? It shows that the fisherman broke his promise, and the "villagers" got angry, so they hid it, and of course outsiders could not find it!

Question eight, Liu Ziji is dead.

Nanyang Liu Ziji, a noble scholar, heard it, and happily went to it. Unsuccessfully, the search for the disease ended, and then there was no concern.

Liu Ziji, a generation of celebrities, after hearing about this, he happily went to look for it, but died suddenly halfway, what happened?

This is actually a warning issued by the "villagers" of Peach Blossom Garden, the undead need to rest in peace, and they are not allowed to harass again, come one, and die another.

Sure enough, "the one who didn't care about it later", the text did not record what the fisherman's ending was, but he broke his oath, so naturally there would be no good results!

So, when did the "villagers" of Taohuayuan die? The answer is: During the period of Qin's unification of the Six Kingdoms!

When the Qin State destroyed the Six Kingdoms, there was a wolf-like Qin soldier, who washed the Peach Blossom Source in blood, leaving no men, women and children, and the resentment of the undead accumulated deeper and deeper, gathering here, six hundred years later, the fisherman got drunk and strayed into the Peach Blossom Spring.....

Xie Bi'an said: Actually, there are many such examples, I have to come into contact with many ghosts here every day, and I can't count them for thousands of years! In my spare time, there are also ghosts who tell me stories about their lives, and I remember a ghost who told me a similar story:

Said: In ancient times, there was a Taoyuan village, the village was famous for peach blossoms! Every March, the peach blossoms in the peach forest are in full bloom, the purple and red, attracting countless literati and ink writers to come here to chant poems against it, there is a peach blossom view in the peach forest, I don't know what year and month it was built, it is very dilapidated!

There is a Taoist statue enshrined in it, I don't know who it is, the Taoist statue is full of dust, but no one takes care of it, with the Taoist temple as the center, there are nine old peach trees distributed around, and a person with a thick trunk can't hold it.

The canopy of the tree shades the sky and the foliage on it is said that the entire peach grove is born from these nine peach trees.

These nine old peach trees do not know how many years they have grown here, how many dynasties they have gone through, and they have been safe and sound, but now they are about to suffer a catastrophe, it turns out that there is a rich gentleman in this Taoyuan Village, named Xue Chong.

Xue Chong started by loan sharks when he was young, and once others couldn't afford to pay it back, he let people sell their sons and daughters, so that countless families were ruined, wives were separated, and countless people were forced to die.

Now when I go to sleep, I often dream that the person who was killed has turned into a ghost and comes to him, and I often wake up in nightmares, and I toss and turn every night, not daring to sleep.

This person gave him an idea, saying that peach wood exorcism, if you use peach wood to make ornaments and place them in the house, you can make ghosts unable to enter, this Xue Zhong is like grasping a life-saving straw, not only placed a large number of peach wood ornaments in the house, but also ordered people to replace the furniture with peach wood!

I don't know who said it, the longer the peach tree grows, the better the effect of exorcism, he thought to himself, how can there be any longer life than the nine old peach trees in the peach forest? So he decided to cut down the nine old peach trees and make them into tables, chairs, and bed cabinets.

The people in this village were not happy when they heard it, and the peach forest is not your own, so why do you want to cut it! So they blocked it one after another, preventing the people of Xue Chong's family from approaching the peach forest.

Although Xue Zhong was arrogant in the village, he didn't want to offend the public anger, so he told the villagers that anyone who did not stop cutting down trees would be given two taels of silver per person.

The next day, Xue Chong walked towards the peach forest with his subordinates with axes for cutting trees, followed by many villagers who came to help, and those who helped cut down trees added another one or two silver, so the fool didn't come.

A group of people came to the peach forest under the nine big trees, ping pong cut up, the strength of the people, no matter how thick the old peach tree is, it can't help so many people to cut down, and several were cut down in an instant, but these people don't know that cutting down the old peach tree has caused a big disaster.

The last tree fell to the ground with a bang, raising a puff of dust, and the villagers who cut the tree wiped the sweat from their heads with their hands, thinking that this money was really easy to come by, and just wanted to sit on the ground to rest and rest, but at this time there was a gust of wind blowing in the flat ground!

The weather was still sunny just now, suddenly the clouds were thick, the sky was darkened, the sun was still hanging in the sky, but it turned dark red, this day became obviously not normal, the villagers looked at each other, I don't know what happened.

What are you doing, why don't you hurry up and work while it's cool? Do you still want money? Xue Zhong said.

Before Xue Chong finished speaking, he was stunned by the scene in front of him, only to see that the space in front of him slowly became blurred and distorted! After a while, Xue Chong found that the scene around him had changed, and he was actually in a battlefield, and the people in the battlefield were fighting, killing in the dark, and flesh and blood were flying.

A soldier was cut off from his waist with a knife, and his upper body fell to the ground, but he still wielded the knife desperately, and when he was dying, he glared angrily, eager to bite the enemy to death! The battlefield was littered with corpses and rivers of blood, and the dead filled the battlefield with almost no place to stay.

The descendants of the Xue family and those villagers were also the same as Xue Chong, they were in the middle of the battlefield, and they were dumbfounded, fortunately these soldiers didn't seem to see them, they just fought by themselves, everyone reacted and fled in a hurry.

Xue Chong accidentally bumped into a soldier on the way, but he passed through, thinking to himself, could it be that these people were just recreating the scenes from the battlefield in the past? If so, then these people are not in danger.

Xue Chong had just settled down, but he saw a villager running in front of him suddenly bleeding and falling to the ground to death, and then everyone else also fell to the ground, Xue Chong was shocked, and then a cold wind blew in his face, and he suddenly felt that he couldn't breathe, as if he was in cold water.

couldn't help but take a breath of cool air, the cool air entered his body, Xue Chong felt that his liver and gallbladder were split in an instant, his heart was broken, his head buzzed, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground.

After a while, in the Peach Blossom Temple, the Taoist statue slowly opened its eyes and walked out of the Peach Blossom Temple, but saw that the entire peach forest had become a hell on earth, with corpses and bones all over the field, blood flowing like a river, and those soldiers were still fighting, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and the death was endless.

Dao Xiang let out a long sigh, thinking that this formation was still broken, and he remembered what happened hundreds of years ago.

It turned out that this was an ancient battlefield, and the great battle that took place here had a large number of participants, and the fight was extremely tragic, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers were killed here, and these soldiers all died at the moment when their killing intent was the strongest, and the memory of this moment before death was too profound!

After death, the scene will continue to be repeated, these soldiers are angry, and they still continue to fight after death, so that the whole battlefield is full of yin energy, anger, and the spirit of soldiers, ordinary people can't bear it at all, and no one can survive if they strayed into this place, which is a place that makes people talk about it at that time.

At that time, there was a wandering Taoist who had practiced for many years and cultivated to a high level, and after seeing it, he decided to exceed the soul of soldiers, but he didn't expect that these soul of soldiers was too heavy and too angry, and he couldn't exceed it at all, so he had to retreat to the next best thing and use the formation method to suppress these soldiers' souls.

So the Taoist laid out the "Nine Songs Peach Blossom Array" in this battlefield and planted nine peach trees, but this formation can only be performed by immortals, but the Taoist has not reached the realm of feathering, so he has to turn his body into an array eye to drive the magic circle and let the array run smoothly.

The people in the vicinity were grateful for what the Taoist did, so they built a Taoist temple for the Taoist, and made a Taoist statue, and many years later, the Taoist died, and the divine consciousness entered the Taoist statue, and was worshiped every day, enjoying the incense, and absorbing the power of the mind.

However, as the days go by and the dynasties change, people gradually forget about the Taoists! There are no longer people in the Taoist temples to worship, and the Taoist people's divine consciousness is weakened day by day without the support of people's mental power, and they are afraid that they will soon disappear, and they have no choice but to fall into a deep sleep.

It wasn't until the Nine Songs Peach Blossom Array was destroyed that the Daoist's divine consciousness woke up.

The Taoist looked at the soul of the soldier in this ancient battlefield and sighed, so many years have passed, you should also let go of your obsession and re-enter the reincarnation.

Because many years have passed, the aura of the soldier's soul has weakened, so it can be exceeded, the soldiers fighting in the battlefield have turned into a little starlight and dissipated, and after the Dharma is done, the Taoist person's mental power has also been consumed, and the Taoist image suddenly shattered and scattered to the ground, and the divine consciousness in the Taoist image has disappeared!

After a pause, Xie Bi'an continued: In fact, the description of the afterlife basically comes from the mouths of those undead and resentful souls! But these people who have already died are unwilling, and most of them think they are still alive!

This is more troublesome, and someone needs to explain and persuade you! This is why there is the origin of the term "excess"!

Yang Zhuochao said: In this case, why do Taoists and Buddhists have the same theory of transcendence, and do they have the same role?

Xie Bi'an explained: Chaodu was originally a Taoist term, referring to Taoism to help the deceased get rid of the suffering of the three evil realms through chanting sutras or performing rituals. For Taoism, transcendence is through the inner practice of the mage himself.

Both Buddhism and Taoism aim to free the souls of the deceased from all the sufferings of hell in a transcendent way!
