Chapter 1: Reincarnation
She couldn't remember how she died.
Was he beheaded in the market, or did he die in his bed...... She couldn't remember.
The four of them grabbed the chains that were tied to her, and she was involuntarily dragged forward by them.
Countless yin flames flowed under the feet of the sky, occasionally falling on the Manzhu Sawa beside the road, instantly rising a half-human-high green flame. The blue fire and red flowers are extraordinarily enchanting.
There were countless forks in the road beside the road, and many newly dead people who were dressed in white like her were pulled forward by the shadows. Some cried, some laughed, and some muttered something. However, no matter how much he repented of his death, he would be consumed by this dead atmosphere.
In the end, he could only silently follow the order, advance in turn, and pass through the gate of the distant Yidu.
The shadow that led her forward stopped, waiting for the entrance.
She lazily looked around, at the gray sky, at the flowing yin fire, and at the blood-red Manju Sawa. The flower is like a dragon's claw, enchanting, but also with a hint of hideousness.
was looking at it in a daze, but he heard a few yin chases behind him say: "I don't know how long it will take to wait, a few new ghosts are very noisy, why don't you feed them some Lechuan water first." Anyway, when it comes to reincarnation, you still have to drink it. ”
Lethe? When she turned around, she saw a yin cha take out a dark wine urn from her bosom, walk to the side of the road, and remove the red flowers, revealing a clear river.
She couldn't tell what color the river was, but it was colorful and bright, and it contained many things.
Yin Cha scooped up an urn, walked over and broke the mouth of a new ghost, and poured it down, despite his cries. The ghost cried violently at first, but slowly, but did not move, and a dazed and sluggish expression appeared on his face, like a newborn baby.
In this way, the ghosts were fed several times, and the crying gradually stopped. When she saw that there was still some water in the urn, she couldn't help but stretch out her hand.
"Show me." She said.
The yin cha glanced at her up and down, and sneered: "It's so bold, dare to call your uncle." You try again. ”
She just stretched out her hand: "Show me." ”
Yin Cha didn't speak, raised his hand to pick up the board and was about to hit, but was hurriedly stopped by the Yin Cha who escorted her.
"Stop! Do you know who she is?! Don't be reckless! ”
The yin was still unconvinced, and sneered: "I want to know who she is!" If it was a noble star official, how could he be bound with a soul chain? ”
A few other yin chaas on the side dragged him aside and said in a low voice: "Just because her death is not tolerated by the law, otherwise who would dare to tie her?" In addition, she is not sane, otherwise she will teach you to be destroyed at this moment. The Emperor of Houtu is taboo against her, let alone you? ”
The yin cha was frightened, turned his head to look at her carefully, only to feel that she was beautiful, but her expression was dazed, but there was an occasional evil aura between her eyebrows, which was really a little weird.
Seeing that she also stretched out her hand to ask herself for a wine urn, he couldn't, so he had to hand it over obediently.
She threw away the lid and hurriedly stuffed her hand into it, and when she fished it up, it was fragments, all of which were memories of his life.
Fishing again, but it is the memory of a devil, burning, killing and plundering, doing all kinds of evil, and finally beheading in the market.
Continue to fish, another lonely palace maid, empty to the tree full of red flowers, depressed and depressed.
I fished a few times in a row, but there was always no joy, either pestering mian sickbed or lonely for a lifetime.
She only felt that these fragments were familiar but unfamiliar, and she wanted to know how she died, and what she did when she was alive, but for some reason, she just couldn't remember.
When the yin cha saw that she seemed to be clear and not clear, they couldn't help but be terrified. This person is talented and willful, and it is not easy to deal with what she has peeped at at this time. I had to smile and say, "Girl, I'm about to enter the door." Why don't you wait inside, and the judge will read the book of life and death? ”
She nodded obediently, returned the wine urn to the man, and the four yin chasers took her to the flickering, and in a blink of an eye, they came to the gate of the towering and gorgeous capital city.
Two huge, dark monsters stood guard at the door, and when they saw them, they stopped them.
"Bring the brand."
Yin Cha hurriedly took out the vermilion sign with a smile, on which her name and important things about her life were written. The strange god took a cursory look, his face changed slightly, and he looked at her carefully, but she didn't know at all, she only lowered her head and played with her clothes.
"Haven't you enlightened yet? How can you tie her up? The strange god asked in a whisper.
Yin Cha shook his head, put his hand on his neck, and gave it a gentle send. The strange god suddenly understood, looked at her with scruples, and retreated to both sides, while saying, "Please come in." ”
The Yincha carried the heavy soul chain and pulled her in. But I saw that there were many pavilions and pavilions in the city, no different from the world, but the residents were all yin, and occasionally old ghosts were assistants to open teahouses, and they were all people without reincarnation.
She only felt that everything was very new, looking left and right, but forgetting about the Lechuan water.
All the way to a gorgeous building, the layers of green tiles of the platform are like the wings of a phoenix, spreading upward. The auspicious clouds above are shrouded, the flying pavilion is flowing, and the layers are stacked and green, which is really a wonder that cannot be seen in the world.
"Girl, please come in." The Yin cha respectfully invited her in, and two of them loosened the chains around her waist for her, and went to the middle gate and the judge to return to her life. The other two stayed behind to guard her, waiting in the hall.
The green-faced and fanged imp came over in a panic, she saw that the sarcoma on the top of the imp's head grew strangely, and couldn't help but reach out to touch it, the imp was so frightened that his face was like earth, and he cried out on the spot, and shouted: "Spare your life!" ”
Yin Cha hurriedly drank away from the little ghost, and said with a forced smile: "Girl, don't be weird, he has never seen the world when he was on duty." Just spare him once. ”
She nodded obediently and said, "I just think the sarcoma on the top of his head is interesting, can't you touch it?" ”
Yin Cha only smiled bitterly, and said in his heart: You are the nemesis of all ghosts, who dares to let you touch a finger?
There is nothing to say here at the moment. But he said that the two who went to restore their lives handed over the official document to the judge, and the bearded judge also muttered for a long time, not knowing what to do.
After a while, he asked in a deep voice, "How did you handcuff her?" ”
Yin Cha said: "Since she is a human being, she naturally handcuffed her soul after she died." ”
"Idiot." The judge frowned, "Who asked you this!" Doesn't this official know that she is a person in the next life? ”
Yin Cha hurriedly smiled: "Your Excellency is wise." The small one was confused. It is said that she should not be handcuffed with soul chains, but she died by self-determination in the world, and if she is not handcuffed, it will be against the law. Fortunately, she was not enlightened and ignorant, and she was obediently taken into the underworld. I want to ask my lord, what kind of reincarnation should she enter this time? ”
The judge touched his beard and pondered for a long time before he said, "Self-judgment...... It seems that she is still not enlightened, her anger is too heavy, and she still needs to be honed. This time, she still went the same way, and suffered more until she became enlightened and enlightened. If it is no longer wise, continue to judge yourself...... You bring the word over, and next time let her go to hell and fend for herself! ”
He was about to go down to deliver the word, but he heard a voice from the curtain behind the judge: "Wait." ”
Yin Cha and the judge hurriedly turned around and bowed down, and said, "I've seen the Emperor Houtu." ”
The male-female voice said, "After thinking about it, I feel that suffering may not be able to achieve enlightenment. Her personality itself is perverse and remote, such as being under heavy pressure all the time, but she is afraid that the evil spirit will be heavier. ”
The judge lowered his head and said, "I don't know what the emperor means?" ”
Houtu said behind the curtain: "In the previous lives, she suffered a lot of hardship, but as a result, she was not angry, and her mind was unknown, but I am afraid that it is not a good strategy." It is better to use Yale to comfortably influence it, first feel its heart, and then invest in the reincarnation of heaven to make it cultivate immortals, which is the law. ”
The judge was a little embarrassed: "She is self-judging in this life, and she is only afraid of throwing herself into the way of heaven...... What's more, the road to cultivating immortals is difficult, and there are so few successful people, and they will not succeed at that time, but they will waste the emperor's good intentions. ”
Houtu pondered for a long time, and Fang said: "You leave her in the underworld first, and teach her every day with the book of cultivating immortals." After a while, we will see which one to invest in. ”
"Minister, obey the order."
Yin Cha came out with the will, and when he saw that she couldn't sit still, she was looking around in the hall, and she was very curious about everything, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. If you want to leave this evil star in the underworld, some of them will be afraid in the future.
He smiled and stepped forward and said, "Congratulations to the girl, the Emperor of Houtu has a will, let the girl live in the underworld first, be idle for a while, and then talk about reincarnation." ”
She didn't seem to understand, and looked at him in a daze. Yin Cha complained bitterly in his heart, and said with a smile: "That's it...... Let the girl play in the underworld for a few days, read the book and take a walk, and then send the girl to reincarnate when the time comes. ”
She nodded, touched the picture of the Nine Heavens Xuannu hanging on the wall in her hand, and said, "I like it here, so I can live here." ”
Yin Cha had to nod: "The girl likes it here, it's a blessing for us." ”
He turned around and told the little ghost to go to the second floor to clean the guest room, and then turned around and said, "Girl, there is another good thing." The Emperor took pity on you for being confused and forgetting the things of the world, and gave you one. ”
She was ignorant, at a loss and didn't know what was going on, and the yin cha on the side had already gently pulled her down and bent over, and instructed: "The emperor has given you a name, and you must kneel down to accept it." ”
She didn't kneel, only stared at the yincha, he really couldn't, so he had to say: "The emperor gave you the name Xuanji, and in the future, the person who calls Xuanji will be a girl." ”
She nodded blankly, and when she turned her head to see the imp coming down from the upper floor, she grinned and grabbed the sarcoma on the top of his head, causing a ghost to cry wolf.
Xuanji stayed in the underworld in ignorance in this way. On the surface, she said that she was doing chores for the judge, serving tea and pouring water, but in fact, how many people dared to call her? can only let her wander around the capital all day long, just begging her not to cause trouble.
The judge will bring some books on cultivating immortals and cultivating nature and talking about the truth of the world to her every day, and she likes her to be literate and talented.
After a long time, the judge couldn't help but sigh at the wisdom of the Emperor Houtu. If she had let that ignorant soul be reincarnated directly, she would only make mistakes again and again unintentionally, and she didn't even know what was wrong. Now that she is well-read, she is very interested in cultivating immortals, but she has also swept away her previous stupidity, revealing some of her talent and intelligence.
She was like a stubborn stone, just fished up from the bottom of the river, and the outline of her facial features was completely blurred, and she couldn't open her mind. Now with the truth of the world, the stories of the immortals and sages taught her, carefully carved her, and finally gradually emerged, and the Lingxiu hidden in the inner was about to come out.
There is only one, which is a headache.
She's lazy, surprisingly lazy, so lazy that the sky is angry and resentful.
As long as you can lie down, you will never sit, if you can not think without thinking, you will not think, you just like to sit on the edge of the Lethe River in a daze, and you will take a handful out to see, sniff, and then throw it back.
Everyone knew what she was looking for, but no one dared to tell her that all the memories of her past life had been taken away by the Emperor Houtu. He asked her to cut off all her previous anger and start all over again, and get a new life.
On this day, the judge looked for her for a long time, but there was no one to see, and he summoned the yin who guarded her, and replied that Xuanji was looking at the flowers on the bank of the Lethe River, and stayed all afternoon, without moving.
He had a fire in his heart, and he carried the book to the river to find her, intending to reprimand her. After spending the past few months with her, both of them have a bit of a master-apprentice relationship, just because she is studious and smart, and the judge's original vigilant mentality has also relaxed, and he really teaches her as a student. There is no teacher in the world who is not angry at the laziness of his students.
Out of the city gate of the capital, I saw the thin white figure sitting by the Lethe River. He crept closer, but saw her staring at the Manju Sawa in full swing on the shore, her eyes straight, and she didn't know what to think.
He was about to call her, but Xuanji didn't look back and said lightly: "Teacher." ”
The judge sighed, and walked over to sit beside her, looking with her at the blood-curdled flowers. After a long time, he said, "What are you looking at?" ”
She said lightly, "Look at that color." I have a very familiar feeling, I always think that I should see it all the time, but I can't remember it. ”
The judge was slightly shocked in his heart, but said in his mouth: "The previous life has passed, and you must not worry about these mundane things anymore, otherwise it will be contrary to the principles I have taught you." ”
Xuanji said "um", "That's right, the teacher's words are always right." I've always felt that it made sense. Although I understand these truths, for some reason I find them so far away that I find it difficult to do. ”
"Oh? What do you find difficult to do? ”
"You told me to cultivate one's self-cultivation, not to focus on the past, and not to think about the future. Those things are easy to enchant people, and their hearts are not pure, and they are unable to cultivate the Tao. If the six roots are dirty, they can't see out of the form, and they are easy to indulge in sound. ”
She picked a flower and crumpled it in her hand, the bright red juice running down her slender fingers.
"However, when a person is born, he has to think. Eyes were born to see, mouths to speak, ears to hear. If I give up, what exactly should I watch? I don't understand what the teacher said about the realm of becoming an immortal, after becoming an immortal...... Don't you know what it is? ”
The judge really didn't expect her to ask such a tricky question, so he couldn't help but be stunned for a while, and said: "No, it's plausible in my heart, I know but I don't know, I understand but I don't understand." ”
"And what do they really know?" She asked seriously, "Got it, can you still pretend not to know?" Are the immortals happy? ”
The judge frowned: "Xuanji, you are drilling the tip of the horns." Jolly? Do you think that the joy in the sound is the real joy and joy? ”
She lowered her head and said softly, "I understand what the teacher meant." I just don't understand. If there is no action and no intention, then why should it exist? I couldn't figure it out, and after thinking about it for a long time, I felt that I must not be able to do it. When I have a heart, I want to think, so I don't think about the cause, so why give birth to it? Teacher, you must be disappointed in me. ”
The judge saw that her eyes were clear, but there was a fog inside, as if she understood or not, and there was a strange look. He couldn't help but be even more frightened, knowing that this person was too smart, and he didn't know when she could really remember the cause and effect of the cause, and when the time came, he would fall into hell and become a demon, and he would never be able to turn over again, and it would be in vain for the Emperor of Heaven and the Emperor of Houtu.
He was silent for a long time, and finally became a plan in his heart, and suddenly clapped his hands and said: "Xuanji's meaning is that the teacher understands!" ”
She hurriedly widened her eyes and said curiously, "What does the teacher understand?" ”
The judge smiled, "I'll let you see your past life!" This is the only time, not an example. ”
She couldn't help but be overjoyed, dancing on the ground, and couldn't even speak.
The judge scooped up a handful of soil from the shore, sprinkled it into the Lethe River, and said, "Look slowly, don't ask these questions next time." ”
She hurriedly stepped forward, but saw the ups and downs in the Lethe River, and the rippling water color gradually condensed and formed, turning into a woman in white. As soon as she saw the woman's appearance, Xuanji was stunned.
It's herself.
But it doesn't seem to be.
Her face was very murderous, her eyes were like broken ice, and the chill seeped through. Suddenly, she pulled a sword flower, her skirt turned, and she didn't know what she stabbed, and blood splashed all over her body. Then, she retracted her sword and wiped her face, leaving a trail of blood on her left cheek. She suddenly showed a strange smile, as if dripping with joy.
Xuanji only felt that this scene was familiar, the smile, the blood-stained white dress, and the eyes that crushed the ice and snow...... The familiar sound of the horn, the golden iron horse, and the overwhelming shouts sounded in her ears. The general on the horse had three heads and six arms, surrounded by flames.
Asura! That's the Shura Path!
She suddenly grabbed a little light of inspiration in the dark, and was about to blurt out, when someone suddenly pushed her behind her, and she couldn't hold it anymore, and fell into Lethe River with a pop, and drank several mouthfuls of bitter Lethe water.
Like a big cat in the water, she climbed to the shore in a panic, and as soon as her hands reached the ground, her heart became in a trance, and the past and the future suddenly turned into smoke and disappeared from her heart little by little. She tilted her head blankly at the judge on the shore, wanting to say something to him, but forgetting who he was.
"You ......," she murmured, "I ......"
Strange, as if something important was forgotten by himself. What is it exactly? So what the hell......
The judge summoned Yin Cha, dragged her ashore with a soul chain, and said loudly: "Xuanji, you have been in the underworld for more than three months, and now that you are sane, this official will send you to reincarnation first." I hope you will work hard to cultivate immortals in the next life and return to heaven as soon as possible. ”
After that, everyone carried her to the path of reincarnation. Yin Cha saw that Xuanji was in a daze, and knew that it was because of drinking Lechuan water, so he couldn't help but say cautiously: "Lord Judge, this is ...... What kind of path do you want Miss Xuanji to enter? Or do you go to the Shura Dao as before? ”
The judge shook his head: "No, she is not what she used to be, and her mind is about to open." At such a critical moment, as long as you are uncertain, you will become a demon. Therefore, the official used a trick to ignite her and make her drink the water of Lethe River and enter reincarnation. You can't go to the Shura Road again, otherwise all your previous achievements will be wasted. Nowadays, there are many immortal cultivators in the world, and they respect immortals, so let her go to humanity. As long as there is sincerity, the result will be determined in the future. ”
The door of humanitarian reincarnation has been opened, and the inside is so glorious that it cannot be forced to be seen, and there are thousands of road spider threads intertwined. Xuanji was illuminated by the light, and her whole person gradually became transparent, and finally turned into a jewel.
The judge personally took the orb, walked into the gate of reincarnation, threw her into the red dust, and said silently in his heart: "If you and I are destined for master and apprentice, we will be able to meet in heaven in the future." Please take care. ”
It was night, and the wife of the head of Shaoyang Peak in Shouyang Mountain gave birth to two daughters, and the room was full of light at that time, like day. The head of the company, Zhen Lei, had a dream on the eve of production, only to see the jasper exquisite, the starlight was shining, so he named the two girls in turn: Linglong, Xuanji.
