Chapter 144: This life is not over, and we will meet again in the next life
Judging from the inclination of the robbery hole, it should extend downward, and I don't know where it extends; Because of the limitations of cave thieves, we can only rely on the method of crawling forward to move forward slowly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
I don't know how long it took, but the air in front of the cave suddenly became fresher, and my first impression was that we had reached the exit.
"Brother Tian, we're out!"
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the forest at the front to be the first to open his mouth and shout loudly; And by the light of the flashlight, I also saw the exit of the thief hole that was covered under a large bush!
"It's not easy......"
Standing in front of the exit, Hu Laoqi breathed in the fresh air halfway up the mountain, and sighed insincerely, and Hu Yifei and I also climbed out of the thief hole one after another.
It's just that although it came out, it was dark at this time, and nothing could be seen under the clouds and mist in the mountains. So after a short discussion, the four of us unanimously decided to rest in place and wait until dawn to make the next move.
"Hey, what the hell are you putting in the cuffs in the tomb?"
As soon as he sat down, Hu Yifei, who had not spoken a word, began to ask me about it, chewing on the stiff compressed biscuits in his mouth, and his face was full of curiosity.
"Hehe......"
I chuckled, then shook my cuffs, and the three white rays of light flew out of my cuffs in an instant, and then hovered in front of several of us.
In the end, after dozens of seconds of fusion, the three white rays of light merged into one, and at the same time, a faint phantom slowly emerged in front of us.
"Concubine Xiao?"
The screams of the woods instantly broke the identity of the phantom in front of us; He is right, what appears in front of us at this moment is Concubine Xiao Shu who died and is in the tomb.
It's just that unlike before, Concubine Xiao at this time didn't have the slightest expression, and she completely gave people a sluggish feeling.
"What's going on? Isn't she dead? ”
Also showing surprise at the reappearance of Concubine Xiao Shufei were Hu Yifei and Hu Laoqi beside me, who looked at me in shock, completely unwilling to believe that what they saw at this moment was real.
"Ugh! Here's the thing......"
The few people in front of me looked at me like a pig brother, which made me feel goosebumps; In order to dispel the confusion in their hearts, I had to sort out my thoughts and tell them what happened:
Strictly speaking, what appeared in front of us at this time was not the real Concubine Xiao Shu, at best, it was only her three main souls.
As we all know, people have three souls and seven spirits; The three souls refer to the "heavenly soul, the earth soul, and the human soul", which were also called "fetal light, refreshing spirit, and ghost spirit" in ancient times.
In Taoism, the three souls of human beings are called "the main soul, the awakened soul, and the living soul" or "the original god, the yang god, and the yin god" or "the heavenly soul, the consciousness soul, and the human soul".
Generally speaking, the three souls of a person do not gather together while he is alive; Among the three souls, the two souls of heaven and earth are always outside, and only the soul lives alone. The heavenly soul is the main soul, which mainly dominates the good or bad luck of a person, so it wanders in the world; The earth soul is the awakened soul, which mainly dominates a person's destiny and often wanders in the underworld. Therefore, only the soul is attached to the human body.
The soul of human life is the main thought and wisdom of the seven spirits through the heavenly chong spirit and wisdom. Through the two spirits and the central spirit, the main action. Through the elite two spirits, the main body is strong. Only the center is the center of the seven spirits; Therefore, the soul of a person is attached to the seven chakras.
The three main souls begin to separate from each other when a person is born, which is also recorded in Taoist doctrine and rumored among the people.
According to the story of the three souls and seven spirits recorded in the "Xuanwei Lu", in May of the fifth year of Tang Yuanhe, Si Ronglang Cui Xuanzi Cui Huan was taken to the underworld magistrate by two yellow shirts to be tortured in the middle of his illness. Cui Huan stood outside the judge's courtyard, and suddenly heard four sounds of hitting people with a cane, and a Yin official came out to say to Cui Huan: "Forgive me now, and only release you with a light cane." ”
Cui Huan said: "If you don't enter this body, why should you be punished? ”
The Yin official said, "A mortal has three souls, one at home, and the second at the ear of the rod." If you don't believe it, look at the rod marks on Lang's shins? ”
Cui Huan pulled up his clothes and saw that there were indeed four cane marks on each of his shins, and they were in pain, and he couldn't lift his feet, so he could only crawl.
And Shen Huazi in Mengbisheng's "Continuation of the Golden Vase Plum" also has three souls: one soul begging in the yang world, one soul staying in the underworld to be a hungry ghost to suffer, and one soul guarding the corpse on the tomb of Ximen Qing.
One day during the Qingming Festival, Shen Huazi accidentally fell to his death on the side of the road. When he met the soul of guarding the tomb for Ximen Qing, he called his soul to the tomb of Ximen Qing. The two souls complained of their bitterness, and even got into a fight, and the soul guarding the corpse with him should not have deceived him, and mistook his good business during the Qingming Festival; The corpse guard soul blames him for wandering outside all day long, allowing himself to do the drudgery of guarding the corpse. It wasn't until the land god came to call the two souls to merge into the former body and return to the yang.
After understanding the role of each of the three souls, we should have a definition of "death" in general. Death does not refer to the disappearance of a person's vital signs, but to the fact that after a person's seven spirits leave the body or are broken, and the three souls reunite, they will truly die and thus enter reincarnation.
Not long ago, in the tomb, because of Concubine Xiao Shu's momentum, she chose to die with the half-spirit Li Zhi, which would cause her seven spirits to break away from her body and the three souls to reappear; And it was at this opportune time that I confined her three main souls in my sleeve.
"So, is she really dead this time?"
Lin Zi stared at Concubine Xiao Shu who appeared in front of us and asked me such a question.
"Yes, the reason why I detained her here is just to fulfill her wish and let her meet Lang Jun thousands of years ago for the last time!"
Although it is said that those who have lost the seven spirits have long since lost their own consciousness and have no sanity; However, I still took out the "blood glass" from the tomb from my pocket, which sealed all the emotional sustenance of Concubine Xiao Shu for thousands of years; I don't know what drove me to do this? But I knew I had to do it.
"The Yin soldiers are coming soon, you stay away, I have to break the seal before the Yin soldiers arrive, so that they can see the last face before reincarnation, and maybe they may meet in the next life!"
Let two people meet in the afterlife? What a ridiculous topic it sounds, but I have to say that this kind of thing has actually existed. Although I have not seen it in any Taoist books, I have heard such a statement in my grandfather's previous stories.
