Chapter 322: Questions and Answers and Conclusions
Now that Lord Hades has spoken, then the king pigeon is no longer polite. A year ago, the appearance of Xuzi and the establishment of the gambling contract completely subverted the worldview of the king pigeon.
And the king pigeon has a lot of questions about the current world.
He was going to start with the final question.
"Where do the lives and souls come from, who makes them, and who controls them?" Wang Ge squinted his eyes and looked at Lord Hades.
The little Lori in front of her shook her head, not taking these questions seriously at all, and replied casually, "I don't know." Everything is brought about by this umbrella, this is the law of God. ”
Wang Ge took a breath, let out a deep sigh, and continued, "You mean, in this world, there are gods who are higher than your Hades, or creators?"
Hades still shook his head, "I don't know, I've never touched them. ”
Hearing this, Wang Ge thought for a while, it seems that there are some ultimate questions, and Lord Hades is not clear.
Perhaps the creators thought that Hades didn't need to know this information, or even contact her, and that she just needed to do what she wanted and what she had done.
Since Lord Hades doesn't need to know, then there is no need for him to be an ordinary human being.
"How did you become Hades, were you chosen, like me?" asked the king pigeon, not frustrated by Hades' answer. "Chinese civilization for 5,000 years, you have been the king of Hades for 5,000 years, are you the first king of Hades?"
"Lonely and unheard!5,000 years of Chinese civilization, so there were no human beings before 5,000 years?" Lord Hades glanced at the king pigeon, as if mocking his ignorance. "Since mankind entered the Paleolithic Age, when wisdom and thinking were initially formed, Hades has existed, and the god of death has also existed. It's just that at that time, the population was small, and there were not many deaths, and it was not like now, it was everywhere. This is the consequence of the population explosion. Before me, there were seventeen Hades, and their terms of office were both long and short, as recorded by the umbrella. It also only logs this. I don't know how Hades was elected, or where he will go when his term ends. For as long as I can remember, I was the eighteenth Hades, and the umbrella told me what Hades should and should not do, and the rest...... I don't know."
Wang Ge suddenly felt that Lord Hades seemed to be a very pitiful existence, even more pitiful than the god of death.
At least after becoming the Grim Reaper, the memory is erased, and this state is maintained for a short time, a few short years, and a long few decades will come to an end. The Lord of Hades is different, they also can't know their own background, know their origins, and have existed for more than 5,000 years, and this pain and torture is completely unimaginable for Wang Ge.
After all, a person, a soul, or a thinking energy body has its own desire for knowledge, and tracing one's own origin is the instinct of every person who has a desire for knowledge! But looking at the indifferent look of Lord Hades in front of him, this desire for knowledge has probably been exhausted in the eternal years.
"You're right. I have tried to find out where I came from several times, but I have never been able to find an answer. This is God's law. They just want me to see what they think I should see. ”
"Then you still let me inherit your position as Lord Hades, aren't you cheating on me?" As soon as Wang Ge heard this, this Hades could not be even more unacceptable, it was definitely not a comfortable thing to be erased from his memory and then look for it, as can be seen from Xuzi.
It was not easy for him to secretly help Xuzi find his own background, and it seemed that even Lord Hades didn't know about it, and it was impossible for her attention to focus on Xuzi's body every day. This matter is definitely illegal in the underworld, and if it is leaked, it will definitely make Xuzi suffer punishment, so Wang Ge didn't even dare to mention this matter, and the thoughts in his mind flashed, and he didn't dare to think about it, for fear of being discovered by Lord Hades.
The Lord Hades in front of him has lived for more than 5,000 years, and he is like a human elf, so it is needless to say that he has the ability to read words and feelings, and it seems not surprising that he has the ability to read through other people's minds.
Wang Ge knew that it was very difficult to hide his thoughts in front of Lord Hades.
"But you're different. You're in luck. Do you remember your bet with Void Purple, what will happen if you fail?" Hades said suddenly.
Before the question was finished, why did he suddenly mention the gambling contract? Wang Ge was full of questions, but he still answered the question of Lord Hades, "Of course I remember." If I lose this bet in two years, I will have my soul extracted, become a god of death, serve the underworld, become a helper of Void Purple, and will not be erased from my memory, and I will live a painful life for decades until the end of my life...... Lan Xin won't be coming back either. ”
Becoming a Grim Reaper means not being able to communicate with relatives and friends. Keeping the memory means that the king pigeon will survive in pain. And losing Lan Xin is the most important thing.
After all, the establishment of this gambling contract is to save Lan Xin.
"The bet, the bet, I also planned it myself. Now, you know what is the most important thing in this bet. Yama finally jumped down from his chair, put away the Hades umbrella in his hand, and kept fiddling with the handle of the umbrella, looking straight at the king pigeon.
"The most important?" Wang Ge thought for a moment, and suddenly there was a flash in his mind, "Don't erase my memory?"
This is the law of God, the command of the umbrella. After you become a Grim Reaper, you don't need to have your soul memories erased, and even if you become Hades, you can keep your memories. So, you're lucky. In the records of the umbrella, there has never been a god of death or Hades who has retained the memories of his life. To be honest, I thought that your bet would definitely fail, and you would become a Grim Reaper in advance, and working in the underworld for decades would allow you to quickly familiarize yourself with the processes of the entire underworld. But...... Now it seems that who loses and who wins, it is really not certain, which is a miscalculation of me. Lord Hades pointed at the king pigeon with the tip of his umbrella, "You are really enviable." ”
"Don't pour me ecstasy soup!" said the pigeon, frightened.
This matter seems to be asking Xuzi for herself, begging her to give herself a chance and give Lan Xin a chance, but in fact, it was the calculation of Lord Hades from beginning to end, and he was dragged into the abyss step by step by this routine!
"Rest assured, the bet on the rope is irreversible. There's no way I can change the result. Won't you think about becoming Hades without erasing your memories?" said Hades with a smile again.
Wang Ge understood that everything Lord Hades had done, whether it was instructing Xuzi to make a bet with him, or meeting and talking with him in person today, answering his series of questions, was only for one purpose - to find the next heir.
Despite this, the king pigeon is still unwilling to become the god of death and become the king of Hades. As a normal human being, this is absolutely intolerable. Just kidding, eating is like chewing wax, drinking water is not necessary, relying on the soul power of sinners every day to maintain its own existence, without any touch, all vital signs and states rely on their own simulation, although they can exist for thousands of years, but this is not really alive.
Isn't life just the ups and downs? Even if you don't feel your taste buds, how can you expect your soul to have any insights?
He would rather say goodbye to this part of his life when his life is over, break all feelings without regrets, and reincarnate as a person again, rather than be a walking corpse and exist for thousands of years.
"I don't think about it. Wang Gegeon's answer was straightforward, "If I win the bet, I still have decades to live, and I haven't lived enough, is it a bit early to tell me this?"
"I can understand that. Lord Hades was not surprised by the king's answer, "You're focused on gambling now, and you really want to win." ”
"There are rules about betting, and I still have some questions. Wang Ge nodded, "Even if you want to force me to be your heir, you must respect this bet and let me complete it and live this life." I'll wait until the day I die of old age. ”
"It's good to have faith. "Lord Hades actually agreed, but there is no way to disagree, in the laws of God, a qualified heir must have the will to become Hades in order to carry out a smooth handover, and it is not possible to force it. "Anything I know, I can tell you. ”
"Scarlet reeds. The king pigeon only said these four words.
"Xuzi actually told you this. She really trusts you. Lord Hades said with some surprise, but immediately calmed down again. "The blood-colored reed is a ...... that grows in the underworld. Cropper. The principle is similar to that of wheat and rice in your human world. It is a red reed that grows only in white soil and needs soul power for irrigation. For souls that are too evil, or the Grim Reaper and Enforcers who have seriously violated the law, I will crush their souls and irrigate the soil *** to give the blood-colored reeds to grow. When ripe, there will be a soul body in charge of these matters to harvest it and send it to my mansion to refine the blood-colored reed pill through secret methods. These pills can support the Grim Reaper and the Enforcer to exist in the state of a soul all the time, and there is a limit. People eat people, it's as simple as that. ”
Wang Ge nodded, there is an understanding of the blood-colored reed, what Xuzi said, it is basically consistent with the content added by Lord Hades, and some details have been straightened out, but he will definitely not take these pills, I don't know if it has any effect, I am afraid it will not be of much help to himself.
"The law of death chasing the soul. "The king pigeon did not ask a question exactly, but only said a word or a sentence, and very cleverly waited for Hades to explain, and in this way he would always get more information than if he asked directly.
Hades naturally understood this, but she didn't care. After the king pigeon became the king of Hades, these secrets were supposed to be known to him. According to the laws of God, the king pigeon can reach a level even higher than herself.
Even if the king pigeon is unwilling to become the king of Hades after the end of his life, then these secrets will be taken to the coffin along with the death of the king pigeon and the erasure of the memory of the soul.
If the king pigeon spreads these things in human society, it will definitely be regarded as a mental illness, and if the consequences are serious, Lord Hades can pinch him to death with a special care of his fingers, and he will not pose a threat at all.
"After all this time, you've guessed pretty much. Twenty meters away, the speed of the Grim Reaper depends on the severity of the dying person's physical condition, the more severe it is, the faster it is. Within 20 meters of the dying person, regardless of the physical state of the dying person, the Grim Reaper itself cannot use special abilities, such as teleportation and flight, except for some operations on the soul. It's God's law that they can only get close to the dying on foot, not even run. Walk not because of ease and elegance, but because of limitations. You drive an ambulance and find that the Grim Reaper is no longer close to the ambulance when it is about twenty meters away, it is because the patient's condition is very bad, so bad that the Grim Reaper's speed has reached the limit, but you can't use special abilities within twenty meters, so you have to follow from a distance until the ambulance stops, and then approaches on foot. Lord Hades replied. This is God's law, and they want to leave life with the last chance and respect, and not so hastily. However, those who are close to their lives are not among them. ”
A bold idea suddenly appeared in the pigeon's head. "For people who are particularly critical, and who are not at the end of their lives, if my ambulance does not stop, then will not the Grim Reaper never be able to approach the dying person?"
Lord Hades gave him a big roll of the eyes, "Doesn't your ambulance need to burn oil? Is it a perpetual motion machine? If a particularly critical person doesn't go to the hospital, will the situation get better in the car?"
A series of problems made the king pigeon realize his mistake, and this idea was impossible to realize. Ambulances have to stop sooner or later, and a critically ill patient who doesn't go to the hospital is tantamount to no hope.
"Although the Grim Reaper kills, the Grim Reaper only advances the process of death. On the other hand, the body of a dying person collapses even faster than the speed of death, for example, someone has a shot in the head, breaks the heart, and dies suddenly, and the body can no longer hold the complete soul, and the soul will jump out on its own, without the guidance of death. So that statement of yours will never exist!" Hades continued.
"No wonder there are so many geists. You're not very efficient. The king pigeon laughed twice.
"Although there are many Grim Reapers, there are still only a limited number of people. "Lord Hades is also a little helpless. "I don't think you should have any other problems. ”
The king pigeon nodded, "Indeed, I don't have any other problems. ”
"I have a question. ”
"Is there anything else you don't know about Hades?"
"Is it worth it? When she wakes up, she probably doesn't love you. You need to know...... Humans are selfish. She will never know that you saved her, and she will never know how much risk and torture you took to save him. There's a good chance you're fooling yourself. Human beings are like that, always for themselves, full of lies and deceptions, deceiving themselves and others and then living. Hades sighed, "I've been around for so long......"
"If you really think so, then you have lived in vain for more than 5,000 years. This view is one-sided. Wang Ge was a little disappointed with Hades' thoughts, "Not all people are like that. The people I came into contact with...... Not what you say. They are willing to pay for life after life. Me too. Lan Xin is not my lover, but a life. The more time passes, the more I understand this. ”
Maybe Lord Hades can't understand who Wang Ge refers to by "those people".
Perhaps, that's why God's laws don't want to erase your memory. Hades smiled eerily. "Let's get here today. If nothing happens, I won't see you again during your lifetime, I'm busy. ”
The king pigeon wished she hadn't come, "You're busy, don't worry about me......"
"The person Xuzi found for me is quite good. Hades opened the umbrella in his hand, and the streamer of the clock inside the umbrella was still rotating.
