Chapter 3: Cancel the bet you just made
The soul is different from the body. He didn't eat, drink, or grow old, but he cared about his status and reputation.
There are lower and higher souls.
Higher souls are divided into one, two, three, four, five, and so on. The fifth-class soul has 2,000 cubic meters of independent space, the fourth-class soul has 4,000 cubic meters of independent space, the third-class soul has 6,000 cubic meters of independent space, and the second-class soul has 8,000 cubic meters of independent space. All four of these classes can build their own two-storey small buildings. First-class souls have 10,000 cubic meters of independent space and can build their own palaces.
The lower souls are also divided into one, two, three, four, five, and so on. The fifth-class soul has two cubic meters of independent space, the fourth-class soul has four cubic meters of independent space, the third-class soul has six cubic meters of independent space, and the second-class soul has eight cubic meters of independent space. The first-class soul has ten cubic meters of independent space. Other than that, there is nothing else.
In order to have a larger space, there are two ways out for souls: first, go down to the mortal experience to win the identity of high-level souls; 2. Attach to high-level souls, act as attendants, and stay in the palace.
There are very few chores in the soul world, and acting as an attendant is equivalent to a vase, acting as a faΓ§ade for high-level souls. Of course, in the attached group, it is mainly the lower souls. The living conditions of the higher souls themselves are not bad, and they are more willing to be at ease in their own territory.
The attachment of the lower souls means giving up a few cubic meters of their own space to the higher souls.
At first, the higher souls didn't care about this small few cubic meters, but later, they found that the nine-story platform, starting from the soil, countless cubic meters is a large number, which can transform the original small building into a palace, and can also make their palace expand indefinitely. Gradually, the gap is widening. What was originally a balloon-like territory of ten sizes has become hundreds, thousands, and thousands of species.
It actually produced 100,000 cubic meters of territory.
This 100,000 cubic meters of territory, whose super-large palace belongs to this territory?
Yes, it is the king of heaven.
Because the first-class soul of the Heavenly Monarch has a higher soul attached. This high soul is Shangguan Wan'er. Shangguan Wan'er was originally a low-level soul with a bad fate, and the reincarnation of a hundred generations may not be able to win the identity of a high-level soul. But because of meeting Wu Zetian, her spirituality was stimulated, and her talents were able to be displayed. She became a prime minister and a poetess. Under one person, above ten thousand! And these made it easy for her to leap into the higher souls. In order to repay Wu Zetian's kindness, Shangguan Jun has been guarding Zetianjun since he returned to the soul realm. Then the heavenly monarch does not descend to earth, and she does not descend to earth.
Since the attachment of the lower souls is for a larger space, the Heavenly Monarch has undoubtedly become everyone's first choice. It is not surprising that her territory became the largest.
Due to the attachment of many lower souls, the affairs of the Heavenly Monarch also increased. Then Tianjun didn't like these, so he handed them over to Shangguan Jun to deal with. Shangguan Jun became a housekeeper, and Tianjun became a queen.
Not all souls choose to cling to it, and many souls choose to go down to earth to experience and rely on their own struggle to win a better future for themselves. It's just that your own efforts may not be rewarded. In the struggling group, there will inevitably be complaints and jealousy.
The one who complains the most and the most jealous is the one who has just been promoted to a first-class soul. Cijun was jealous of the huge liveliness of the Tianjun Palace, Cijun was jealous of the Tianjun's easy promotion to a first-class soul, Cijun was jealous of Shangguan Jun's loyalty to Zetianjun, and Cijun was jealous of Emperor Li Zhi's eternal love for Zetianjun. Cijun complained about the unreasonableness of the realm king system and the unfairness of the realm king.
Zetianjun and Shangguan Jun came to Shangguan Wan'er's side hall outside the Zetian Sovereign's Palace. The blue peony in the hall is delicate. Then Tianjun forgot about the unhappiness just now, and squatted down to admire the unearthly flowers. In the soul world, although all things exist in the form of qi, the color and smell are not inferior to the material world.
While admiring, Cijun came surrounded by maids.
"Then the Heavenly Monarch."
Then Tianjun got up: "You came just in time, let's enjoy the flowers with us." β
"Thank you, Tianjun. I'm here to discuss with you and cancel the bet you just made. β
"Oh?"
"You have been in the soul realm for 1,300 years, and you are very familiar with Meng Po, who is in charge of the lower world. It's easy for you to find someone with a good family background, how can I compare to you? It's better to cancel it outright! β
Then Tianjun didn't laugh angrily: "Oh, this is easy to do, it's up to you to choose which one to go to." β
"How can that work?" Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly shouted.
"Then Tianjun will not regret his word. Leave! Cijun turned around and left.
"Wait......" Shangguan Wan'er shouted.
Then the heavenly monarch stopped it, and the cijun left.
Wan'er hurriedly said: "Then Tianjun, in this soul world, everyone knows that Cijun is jealous of you and hates you, how can you give her the right to choose a mortal fetus?" β
"And who am I going to hand it over?"
"I'll leave it to you. First-class souls have this right! β
The Heavenly Monarch shook his head.
Wan'er was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I know that you don't want others to gossip about you, then you can go through the formal procedure and let Meng Gong and Meng Po be randomly selected." In this way, the probability of choosing a fool is only 1 in 1,000. Leave it to Cijun, and the probability of selection is 100%! β
"If I am destined to go down to earth with a wise mind, what can she change if she is a merciful monarch?"
"No, I have to talk to Cijun." Shangguan Wan'er left.
