Chapter 56: The Underworld
The underworld of different worlds is different.
Perhaps initially, the Underworld will take on a similar appearance.
That's wilderness, chaos, desolation......
Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate......
The heavens and the earth are black and yellow, and the upper and lower sides are either floods or deserts...... In short, the conditions are extremely harsh, and the difficulties and hardships of the environment are imaginable.
"It is said that the sky of the underworld is usually sprinkled with ashes, full of ghosts who suffer and die impatiently; The black soil underground is all made up of broken souls that have been deposited over hundreds of billions of years. ”
"In such a difficult environment, how long can a pure soul, without faith and without support, persist in existence? A month, a year, or ten years? Those who can live a stable life are blessed! ”
"There is already a mature culture in this world, and the underworld must have some scale. If there is no mistake, there must be cities and towns after death, ordinary mortal ghosts are nothing more than going to small dojos in various places such as the land of mountain gods, or the divine domains of some great gods, or the ancestors have spirits, taking root in the underworld, dominating some villages and towns and even cities, and finally being able to get some shelter and not wander around······· Of course, those who have no faith and no clan heirs have no choice, and their sufferings are self-inflicted. ”
"Roughly, most of the underworld is this similar structure, death does not mean extinction, the end of yang life still has yin life, the underworld is the other side of the world, for living after death."
"As for the reincarnation in mythology, reincarnation into a human body, in the absence of the corresponding reincarnation system, you can only rely purely on your own ability, except for the powerful ghosts and gods, who can do it?"
"The cost of reincarnation is too great, which must only belong to the privilege of a few strong people, rather than the basic treatment of all the dead."
"There is life and death, is reincarnation, things are strong, things are old, everything is immortal, death will return to the earth, it is said to return, ghosts are returned, the ancestors of the earliest simple concept of life and death, after death to return to the earth, this kind of reincarnation is a very natural law, and later Buddhism forcibly implanted the six reincarnation concept has nothing to do with it."
"The former is a natural way of heaven, and the latter is nothing more than an exploitation system in Buddhist imagination, destined to be entertained only behind closed doors within the Buddhist divine kingdom system. Is it all-powerful? They can't even save their own homes, who can't talk about it, take out the real money and try it first! ”
"The population of the main plane is close to 10 billion, and the soul bodies that have sunk into the underworld for generations have accumulated more than ten times and a hundred times. Don't think about inputs and outputs? In the case of conservation of energy, someone must pay for this part of the consumption, so who will come? A follower of Yangshi Buddhism? Or is it a god and Buddha in the Buddhist system? The question is can it be afforded? ”
Come to think of it, it is also known that it is not destined to be possible to provide relief without limits.
In the final analysis, what is preached in the Taoist scriptures and Buddhist scriptures is nothing more than a means of propaganda.
He decided not to recite a few verses of the scriptures, but to give the monks a bowl of water, and after death, they would enjoy boundless blessings.
Therefore, the vast majority of ghosts can only live in the underworld, and have no chance of reincarnation, but just suffer and wait for death.
The sect belongs to its own place blessed by the gods, and the treatment is divided according to the degree of piety and offering during life, of course, this must be the good god, and the evil god is not among them.
The ancestors who became ghosts and gods in the underworld three generations ago can naturally be blessed and survive without worry.
Or is a big family, on the family tree, after death to live in the clan, somewhat cared for, the new ghost will not be oppressed.
Those who contributed to the country and the people during their lifetimes, and were posthumously awarded by martyrs, were posthumously donated by the state, and those who could enter the martyrs' tombs were also treated below, which was different according to each dynasty and generation.
Those who have political achievements and have been officials during their lifetime must of course be formally established, not temporary workers, and have more or less some treatment after death, such as dividing the house.
If you have a skill before you are alive and go to the underworld, you can live well, after all, talents, ah, no, ghosts are also more sought-after, and you don't have to worry about making a living.
In addition, if you want to live well below, you can only rely on your own daily practice.
Some new ghosts, even if they go to the underworld, are stronger than ordinary ghosts, and they can live well, and they may even be able to go to the ghosts and gods and become a ghost official.
If someone really wants to be able to cultivate the path of ghosts and immortals, and even the attraction of the underworld can compete with when they die, then they can reincarnate themselves and continue to practice in the next life, even if they are not willing to gamble on the mystery in the womb, they can continue to practice if they fall into the underworld.
The Queen Mother opened the peach banquet, didn't she still have to invite the Eight Caves Netherworld Sect Master? It can be seen that although this road is a little bumpy, it still has a future.
Thinking about these things in his heart, Lin Zhengyang felt his body dissolve and slowly sink in the swamp.
The surrounding shape is like flowing black water, mixed with turbid impurities, all kinds of turbid and unclean gases, deposited and corrupted downward.
It gradually darkened in front of him, and finally a little light appeared.
Stepping on the soft ground under his feet, Lin Zhengyang looked up, and the sky was gray.
"Where is the junction?
Before reaching the Netherworld, Lin Zhengyang listened at the junction.
Without him, he moved too much further.
The immortal body of pure yang is a mass of yang and qi, which constantly circulates according to the principles of their respective avenues, manifesting various visions.
In the Yang world, it is not obvious.
If you break into the netherworld, you will be particularly conspicuous and almost impossible to cover.
It's like a sun appearing in the middle of the night, how can it not attract attention?
However, he didn't need to go directly, and he would have a way to take advantage of the loopholes when he got here.
"Alright, that's it."
Dozens of white points of light floated out of Lin Zhengyang's sleeves, falling here, showing human form, there were men and women, counting, no more, no less than forty-five.
This was what he expected to be the first stowaway souls, the Pioneers.
Don't look at it, it's just a moment, in fact, they have been training for three years in an illusory copy that the main prodigy temporarily opened up that only houses soul bodies, and they have specially studied the course of plane development.
As soon as he landed at this time, he quickly formed a queue by himself, and then quietly knelt on the ground, quite iron-blooded in the army.
Most of the memories in front of them were not clear, and only a few of them were retained, as well as their knowledge of the god in front of them.
"Well, there are some looks, it doesn't seem to be perfunctory to me."
Lin Zhengyang looked at it and nodded secretly with satisfaction.
Although it was only an experiment, there was no real second-order soul body, but a group of mortal ghosts were temporarily used to make up for work, and Lin Zhengyang did not have much expectations.
"Your task is simple, to survive and lurk, not to be discovered, and to wait for my commands."
"Later, my power will take you to smuggle through the foreign netherworld, but I won't really leave you there, but before I cross the boundary membrane, I will take you to take it randomly, you have to pay attention to find the host before this protective power is exhausted, preferably the newly deceased, and then fuse the memory as soon as possible."
"Because of my strength, there will be no period of weakness after the seizure, as long as you don't face the gods directly, you won't be easily exposed, but try to avoid priests, wizards, and other professions."
"You are all people who have died once in the main plane, I don't think you need to say much, plane development is inherently high-risk, I hope you are cautious and careful·········"
"In the end, all the merits can be converted into good deeds, and they can be exchanged for various benefits here."
After saying this, a golden red light appeared around Lin Zhengyang's body, and the golden red glow of the Dao Dao broke through thousands of acres, and the gray sky was also reflected like a burning cloud.
In the center, the forty-five people in the center, nay, the souls, were each plated with a layer of golden red, about fifteen or sixteen centimeters thick, and from a distance it looked like a layer of colorful clothes woven by the glow.
The glow grew thicker and thicker, brighter and thicker, until at last it was almost impossible to see a human figure, only forty-five cocoons of light, and the flowing light was almost liquid.
With a wave of his sleeve, the light outside the forty-five light cocoons burned violently, and the surrounding void was burned like a mirror, melting a small hollow, and the breath of the exotic underworld faintly came from inside.
"Let's go!"
The light cocoons have sunk into it.
Then the black void quickly disappeared.
Lin Zhengyang consumed a lot of strength, his face was a little pale, and the golden-red light behind him also converged.
This kind of smuggling can only be carried out in a weak place like the junction of the yin and yang worlds.
Otherwise, these forty-five exotic souls would not have been able to pass the clear path at all.
This time, it is also in the fusion period of the two planes, and it will be much easier to smuggle in from here, which is much less difficult than Lin Zhengyang forcibly penetrating the complete boundary membrane from outside the territory to descend to the Yang World.
