138 Finding a stand-in
Seeing this, the land mother-in-law opened her mouth to comfort: "You don't need to be embarrassed. "This is a pure misunderstanding. Not to mention between mortals and immortals, even between you mortals, it is common for misunderstandings to arise due to differences in living habits, knowledge structure, etc. ”
Hearing this, the shame in my heart immediately decreased a lot. "So, on the way home, the water ghosts attacked my son wildly, and it was also because of his specialness?"
"Alas, what is special about your son?"
Listening to the heartfelt emotion of the father-in-law of the land, I couldn't help but wonder and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"It means that those drowned ghosts are all special beings. Didn't you ask, logically speaking, why would the drowned ghosts in the 'Ghost Domain' not be able to see your son, so they would attack your son? Actually, that's what makes Drowned Ghost special. Drowned ghosts were blocked from the gates of Hades before the Hades Riot. It can be said that drowning ghosts is the existence of the elders in the 'ghost domain'. It's just that the Drowned Ghosts are different from the latecomers in that they don't need to be powerful at all to have the ability to penetrate spatial barriers. Therefore, drowned ghosts in the 'Ghost Realm' to find your son in the 'Yang Realm'. At the same time, they can also launch deadly attacks on your son. In fact, the Drowned Ghosts can attack not only your son, but also all humans in the 'Sun Realm'! ”
"What? In this way, isn't every drowned ghost a terrible ghost! When I heard this, I was shocked, but then I thought about it, and I felt that something was wrong, "Strange! My son was not the only one sitting in the car, so why did the 'drowned ghosts' just attack my son? ”
"No, although the drowned ghost has the ability of a 'terrible ghost', it is very different from a 'terrible ghost', and there are very few drowned ghosts who will degenerate into a 'terrible ghost'!" Seeing the confusion on my face, the father-in-law continued to explain, "One of the most important reasons why the drowned ghost is special is that if the drowned ghost wants to regain the opportunity to be reincarnated, he must find a substitute. Therefore, if the drowned ghosts directly kill the 'humans' in the 'yang world', then their own 'yin qi' will not only be violently depleted and face the danger of being wiped out, but they will definitely lose the opportunity to be reincarnated and reborn. Therefore, almost no one who drowns will directly kill living beings like 'terrible ghosts'. In order to find a substitute, they must start with their feelings, deceive and trick the living into voluntarily throwing themselves into the water, so that the drowned person will naturally become their substitute, and they will be liberated from this to go to the underworld and be 'reborn and reborn as a human being'. ”
"What's so different from 'ghosts'? Bullshit! Didn't it kill people in the end? What is the essential difference between this and the 'terrible ghost' hurting people? Hearing this, I couldn't help but ask.
"No, no!" The father-in-law of the land replied unhurriedly, nodding his head, "Let me ask you, what kind of people will be seduced into success?" ”
"Needless to ask, of course it's someone with a lot of feelings." I replied with some disdain.
"Since he is an emotional person, after becoming a stand-in, he will inevitably become an emotional soul. How many of them would bear to harm other humans? If it is said that the perpetrators are ruthless people, they may be willing to take action, but unfortunately, how can they be ruthless people who can be deceived and successful? The so-called 'pity and pity', for human beings who are as emotionally rich as themselves, they can't get that hand even more. As a result, the vast majority of the 'Drowned Ghosts' who need to find a stand-in will eventually choose to give up. Of course, that kind of dark and lonely life is indeed very difficult to endure. Some 'drowned ghosts' may choose to take action when they can't bear it anymore and can't see the end of their suffering. However, even if you really want to make a move, it is not easy to succeed. First of all, the 'Drowned Ghost' cannot be too far from the area where he is drowning. Therefore, these 'drowned ghosts' can only wait for the rabbit within a very limited range. Since it is a body of water, there can't be too many people who pass by here. Even if someone passes by, it is not necessarily the right person. If you are a person with a heart like a rock, then no matter how much you bewitch, it will not have the slightest effect. Even if you finally catch someone who is emotional, people can't stay by the water all the time, right? In such a short period of time along the way, how easy is it to succeed in seduction? Therefore, the few 'drowned ghosts' who really want to find a 'substitute' can only succeed in the end. Therefore, compared with the 'terrible ghost', the danger of the 'drowned ghost' to human beings is much smaller. ”
Well, the father-in-law of the land also has some truth. No wonder, although I know that the "drowned ghost" needs to find a stand-in, but I really hear that there are very few cases where so-and-so has become a "drowned ghost" stand-in. "Father-in-law, you still haven't explained why those 'drowned ghosts' are attacking my son so wildly?"
"Alas, most of the 'drowned ghosts' can't bear to be freed or unable to find a 'substitute', so think about it, what would you do if it were you?"
After being reminded by my father-in-law, I seemed to understand something, but I was still a little unsure. "Father-in-law, you mean that these 'drowned ghosts' are committing suicide? It's just that they attack humans so indiscriminately, isn't it no different from 'terrible ghosts'? ”
"No, they're committing suicide, but they're not 'ghosts'!" The land father-in-law said in a firm tone.
"Why?" It's really strange, attacking human beings like this, "yin energy" and "yang energy" will inevitably annihilate each other, in that case, wouldn't it be a lose-lose situation? Since it hurts innocent human beings, how can it not be considered a "terrible ghost"?
"Why didn't they attack the others, but only your son?"
Nonsense! Isn't that the question I just asked you? Instead of answering, why did you ask me in turn? Thinking of this, I replied indignantly: "I don't know! ”
"That's because they already know how special your son is. Therefore, they knew that their attack would not cause any substantial harm to any human being, except for bringing destruction to themselves! To put it simply, their actions are what you humans call 'suicide'! Alas, perhaps, for them, 'self-destruction' is the best relief! ”
