Chapter 195: Hungry Ghost
The snakes are gone!
Looking at the empty pit, Xiao Yu's face showed a trace of surprise, if it weren't for the traces caused by the movement of many snakes on the ground, as well as the pervasive fishy smell, Xiao Yu really thought that everything just now was just a nightmare!
"Miao Feifei, what happened just now?" Xiao Yu just woke up from a dream at this time, and hurriedly asked Miao Feifei what happened just now!
"I just sealed it!" Miao Feifei took a few breaths and said breathlessly.
"Sealed?!" Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes.
Miao Feifei nodded and said, "The so-called sealing is to correct its name!" If a cultivator had given it a proper name, it would have been in much less danger when it turned into a dragon! ”
"But ......" Xiao Yu glanced at Miao Feifei, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Isn't it true that only Taoist people can do it?" ”
"That's what I learned from the captain!" Miao Feifei smiled and said, "Although I haven't been able to master the advanced Taoist techniques yet, it's still okay to correct the name!" ”
Xiao Yu nodded, and then asked again: "By the way, how did you stop me from calling it a snake just now?" Isn't it just a snake? ”
"Man is the spirit of all things, naturally there is the pride of the spirit of all things, those who correct the Tao, what they are most eager for is a sentence of human beings, you say it is a snake, and it has been sealed unintentionally It is a snake, and it is difficult to become a dragon in this life, if you shout that it is a snake in person, it is its biggest taboo, and the anger is unbearable for ordinary people." Miao Feifei thought for a moment and explained.
So that's it......
"Then why did it bury its body in the dirt?" At this time, Xiao Yu seemed to have turned into a god and became a questioning baby, asking questions one after another.
Seeing that Xiao Yu asked such a non-technical question again, Miao Feifei glanced at him angrily and said, "What's so strange about the snake in the soil?" Many people living in the countryside have seen such a scene, and some people even meet snakes sleeping in empty bamboo tubes, and they don't know how they got in. Actually, in the dirt it burrowed into itself, you see. ”
As he spoke, Miao Feifei'er pointed to the dirt pit for Xiao Yu to see, Xiao Yu walked up to take a look, and sure enough, he found that in that dirt pit, there were many long passages with potholes, and it looked like a snake arching inside.
"When it cultivates, it will enter a state similar to hibernation, and when it cultivates, it does not breathe through the mouth and nose to absorb spiritual energy, but the body breathes through the skin, and the same is true for animal cultivation. Let's not talk about that, let's go to the entrance of the tomb first! ”
After a while, the two came to the tomb gate in the big pit.
Looking at the half-open tomb door in front of him, Xiao Yu's brows furrowed slightly, because he seemed to feel a familiar aura.
"Corpse gas!" He muttered to himself, it was clear that there were corpses in this ancient tomb. In addition to this corpse qi, what made Xiao Yu care more was the strange relief carved on the stone door. These reliefs are carved with some short and thin people, although dry and rugged, but the belly is very prominent, the waist is surrounded by leaves, and the strange thing is that the faces of those little people, all have unusually prominent noses, and sharp fangs.
The reliefs are so expressive that those little people who look at them have a feeling that they are hungry, they are hungry, you can see them dripping saliva, looking at anything with greed, and they just want to swallow it.
The villains in these reliefs are worshipping a coffin, and the coffin is carved with a strange smiling face, which seems to be smiling but not smiling, the eyes are very weird, as if they are obviously very greedy, but they are trying to pretend to be compassionate, the smiling face is just a simple smiling face, and there is no extra carving to express anything, but everyone feels that the owner of the smiling face is a woman.
And in the center of the coffin is also carved a heart that is dripping blood, and that heart makes people look at it for the first time, and they don't want to look at it again, because ordinary people can feel resentment.
This is no ordinary tomb!
"This is a hungry ghost ......" After watching for a long time, Miao Feifei suddenly let out a sigh.
Hungry ghost......
Hearing this term, Xiao Yu's face showed a hint of surprise.
Hungry ghosts originated from Indian Buddhism, and refers to people who have fallen into the path of hungry ghosts because of some sins they have created in their previous lives, and because their mouths are too small to eat. Don't think that his belly is too big and he is too hungry to think that he is full of food, it is because of malnutrition that causes his stomach to swell, in fact, they are very hungry! There are many different types of hungry ghosts, some who can spit fire, some who spit out what they eat, some who eat dung and urine, some who eat dead meat, and those who cannot eat anything, etc., and they are often pecked out of their eyes and eaten by vultures......
Hungry ghosts are just a name, strictly speaking they are not ghosts, they are a kind of creatures, what are the specifics, Buddhism and Taoism have different interpretations! But because the hungry ghost evolved from a human, it can also be regarded as a different kind of corpse race.
Why is it said that the hungry ghost is an outlier in the corpse race, because the corpse clan does not belong to a race in reincarnation, but the hungry ghost is not, the hungry ghost exists in the hungry ghost path in the six realms. According to Buddhist classics, the so-called hungry ghosts are often hungry, so they are called hungry; Fear and fear, so it is called a ghost. This ghost is weak and ugly, and everyone who sees it is afraid, and he does not meet food and drink in his poor years, or lives at the bottom of the sea, or near the mountains and forests, and has a long life and a long life. In the past, he was greedy and deceived others, and because of this, he fell into the way of hungry ghosts. In Buddhism, the famous method of almsgiving, "almsgiving", is aimed at hungry ghosts and beings. The Obon Festival is also associated with hungry ghosts.
Therefore, the Hungry Ghosts are different from the Corpse Clan, because they do not belong to the same world as the Human Realm where the Corpse Clan is located!
"Strange, how can there be a hungry ghost relief here!" Miao Feifei's face also showed a trace of doubt: "Didn't you say that hungry ghosts don't exist in the human world?" ”
Xiao Yu shook his head, about the information about the six realms of reincarnation, he, a Han person, naturally knew much more than Miao Feifei, a Miao person, when he explained to her: "Although hungry ghosts do not exist in the human world, there will still be some hungry ghosts who cross the gaps in all walks of life and appear in other worlds when all walks of life are turbulent...... The Historical Data Group of the Orient does exist. Hungry ghosts aren't scary, though...... It's the ghost mother that's scary! ”
"Ghost Mother?" Miao Feifei was stunned when he heard this: "What is the ghost mother?" ”
"The ghost mother is the mother of hungry ghosts, and she is an extremely evil and powerful ghost creature. It is said to be able to produce heaven and earth and ghosts. She can give birth to ten ghosts at a time, give birth in the morning, and eat her sons as snacks in the evening. Thus gaining greater power...... Of course, she won't eat her own devils if she has something...... However, the presence of the Oni Mother indicates that there may be hundreds of hungry ghosts in the area...... And even more! ”
"This ...... Is it true? ”
"Look ......" Xiao Yu pointed to the relief and said, "It's the devil of the hungry ghosts, the coffin they worship, and the one who buried, should be the ghost mother." Do you know where the folk legend of ghost cannibalism came from? In fact, it is talking about hungry ghosts, not ghosts transformed by the soul of a person after death. ”
"If that's the case, then I'll have to tell the rest of the Spirit Group to come to the rescue!"
Xiao Yu shook his head and said, "It's too late!" My friends are probably taken to this tomb, and I have to save them! After speaking, he ignored Miao Feifei's dissuasion, and walked straight towards the tomb behind the stone gate......
