Section 113: Talismans

"Did he just die?" Looking at the only remaining puddle of black water, I don't know why I feel unspeakably uncomfortable. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Wrong, he was a dead man." Xie Kui let out some white medicinal powder on the black water, the rancid smell faded, and the black water also turned into a light-colored powder, Xie Kui took him away, and said to himself, "These things are still useful." "The look on his face is flat.

"But he's gone!" I emphasized, surprised by the coldness of his attitude.

"Are you sympathizing with him?" He looked up at me, I avoided his gaze, maybe I shouldn't sympathize with him?

But he's so pitiful, shouldn't he deserve sympathy?

What a tragedy it is for a dead man, a man who has died helplessly for many hopeless years of torment, to have an insatiable desire for life, to the point that he dies without knowing that he is dead. It's a pity that he finally lost his soul with this desire!

In the end, Xie Kui still let him understand that he was dead, a sad dead man, let him know the truth, and let him understand the most cruel thing for him, is this justice or cruelty?

"Is there no other way to let him wander?" I was reluctant to ask.

"Are you blaming me for being cruel?!" Xie Kui looked at me with an unkind face, but finally sighed: "Hey, it's late!" He was actually lucky to a certain extent. Xie Kui actually said this, but there was no half of relief on his face, for such a pathetic character, but to say that he was lucky to a certain extent, and it was the biggest and most helpless irony. His soul escaped after his death, and those who were with him may have been refined into walking corpses, and even their souls have become slaves! Xie Kui said indignantly.

"So he's lucky!" I smiled wryly.

"It's a pity that he is obsessed with it, his heart has already fallen into the devil, and it is difficult to get rid of it at all, he will only turn into a demon, and in the end his conscience will be lost, his injustice will be deepened, and the future will be endless!" Xie Kui sighed.

Can you blame him for being obsessed? Can you blame him for having a wrongful thought?! He has worked hard all his life, and he is full of beautiful yearning for life all his life, but in the end he still ended up like this, how can there be no injustice and no hatred? ! Even if he turns into a demon, I'm afraid it won't be able to quench his resentment.

I thought, suddenly aware that I was so terrible, that I was actually avenging the grievances of an evil ghost? Hurriedly retracted his mind a little. Xie Kui had already put everything in order.

Seeing that my face was pale, I was still holding my father's talisman paper tightly. "You've got to get used to it, and you're probably going to experience more of these things later on." Xie Kui said lightly.

"This is a talisman drawn by my father, isn't it?" I asked him.

"It should be, but this is a 'corpse talisman', and it is generally not used by decent people." He added.

"Corpse talisman? Decent people don't use it, what do you mean by that? I couldn't help but choke.

"Don't think about it, your father must have a good intention in giving him such a talisman, maybe he wants to wait until he rescues you, and then bring this person out to inquire about some things in the mountains, but when your father met him, he has found that his body is highly decomposed, and it will soon be difficult to bear the soul body that contains him, if this person finds out that he is dead at that time, he will definitely go crazy and turn into a demon, which is even more terrifying, so your father will use this 'corpse talisman'.

It's a pity that this person has been unable to get out, and his body is full of anger, so the mana that your father blessed on the runes will disappear so quickly, fortunately he escaped in the end, otherwise there would be one more evil ghost in this world. ”

"What about escaping, it's not like you're gone." I sighed, Xie Kui looked at me silently, and I was thinking about something else.

"It turns out that the soul can exist without the human body......" I muttered under my breath, but Xie Kui still listened.

"You're wrong, you can't."

"Can't?"

"If the soul is out of the body for a long time, if it cannot be guided to the underworld, and there is no place to temporarily protect it in the world, the soul will soon be scattered, usually limited to seven days, so the seven-day night of returning to the soul is based on the saying, once seven days have passed, if the soul body does not return to the underworld, it is likely to disappear. It is rumored that Hades is an extremely cruel and terrible place, but for the human world and the soul, it is actually the most merciful place. Xie Kui replied.

"So what's going on with this guy? How can there still be so many lonely ghosts in the world? I couldn't help but ask.

"So much? How many have you seen? Xie Kui not only laughed, "You've heard a lot, but how many have you really seen?!"

I was stunned, it seemed to be oh, I really haven't seen much, no, I saw a lot of them that night, but before I could say more, Xie Kui had already explained himself.

"This person's soul can survive without returning to the underworld, because he was originally in the place of raising yin, and later his body was not cold, and he gave him guidance, which is a natural attraction between the soul and the body, so he possessed the corpse and 'lived', and his soul did not get the guidance of the soul attractor after his death, so that place must be a yin prison, and it must be a prison that holds many souls or yin corpses with ulterior secrets!"

"That soul body can only survive in a specific environment in the human world, except in the underworld?!" I asked.

"Not really."

I couldn't help frowning, how did this Xie Kui speak upside down.

Seeing the confusion on my face, Xie Kui couldn't help laughing: "It's not contradictory at all!" Why are these lonely ghosts stranded in the world? ”

"My wish is not fulfilled......" and before I could finish speaking, Xie Kui continued.

"Covetous of human luxury, obsessed with mortal love, suffering all kinds of unwillingness, etc., but even so, most of them can only return to the underworld, only a few, one is a cultivator himself, and he is a soul refiner, the second is to have a chance and find a place to nourish his soul, and the third is to be used by people with a heart!"

"Also, if it weren't for all kinds of conditions, then the world would be full of dead souls, and death would be truly fearless." I groaned.

Think about it, after death, whether there is a soul or not, it is difficult to see each other again after yin and yang, so death has become the greatest pain in the world. It's hard to see even his father as a soul refiner, let alone those ghosts who can't stay in the world anymore.

If I miss this life, even if there is a future life, it will be a different situation, and I can't help but feel a deep sadness. Whether there is really reincarnation or not, this life is a landscape that cannot be recovered, but there are a few people who can really cherish the present, so there will be so many regrets in the world.

If you miss it, it's hard to get it back! (To be continued.) )
