Chapter 390: Quiet Night
Listening to Liang Houzai's words, I couldn't help frowning: "Is human nature barbaric?" ”
Liang Houzai thought for a while and said: "To be exact, the savage nature of human beings should be similar to animal nature, all beasts have animal nature, and human beings, as omnivorous social animals, mainly lived by hunting before learning to farm, and human beings at that time, to put it bluntly, were not much different from wild beasts. The cruelty of the beast is evident in the Night Demon, and she is not from the civilized world, nor does she have so many moral constraints, but she does not kill her mother. ”
I said, "After all, it's her mother, no matter how crazy she is, she won't kill her mother." ”
Liang Houzai suddenly came to his senses: "The problem is here. The fact that the Daredevil was able to kill all her people in one night was enough to confirm her madness, but she did not return to the dungeon to kill her mother at the most crazy time, which shows that at that time, the good part of her nature has not been completely extinguished. ”
I had already guessed the meaning of Liang Houzai's words, but he continued to say: "If Grandpa Chai's speculation is correct, there are two consciousnesses in the body of the night demon, and I think that these two consciousnesses can suppress each other. Sometimes, the consciousness of the night demon takes over, and at that time, the entire tribe is slaughtered. Sometimes, the consciousness of the chief's daughter takes over, and at that time, the leader survives in the face of the mad Daredevil. ”
I put the paper bag in my pocket, sat down next to Liang Houzai, and motioned for him to continue.
Liang Houzai asked me: "Brother Dao, we can make a hypothesis, I mean hypothesis, don't take it seriously." Suppose, one day, you are controlled by something and kill me and Liu Shangang without knowing it, what will happen to you when you regain consciousness. ”
I joked with him, "I'll forget about it as soon as I can." ”
Liang Houzai rolled his eyes, I smiled, and said, "I'll be very guilty, after all, you two are a living life." ”
Liang Houzai sighed helplessly: "Sometimes I really don't want to talk to you more. ”
After a pause, he continued, "I think that after the chief's daughter has made a terrible mistake under the control of the mask, there should be times when she is awake, and whenever she comes to her senses, she must be in pain, but she should only do so only occasionally, after all, judging from the statement of sensitivity, there are not many times when the night demon is awake." ”
Hearing this, I couldn't help but interrupt him: "You said, Jiang Taigong only suppressed the night demon back then, but did not destroy her, could it be that he was also moved by compassion, he wanted to kill the night demon, but he didn't want to kill the leader's daughter." ”
I don't know if I made a big joke just now and annoyed Liang Houzai, and his words now are much thinner than usual: "You think they're all the same as you?" If Jiang Taigong could kill the night demon back then, it would definitely not be as simple as suppressing it, no matter what, keeping the night demon would be a great scourge. ”
He probably felt that he had said a little too much, so he changed his tone to a slightly soothing tone and said, "Didn't that fan also say that the night demon is transformed by the yin qi of heaven and earth." Well, I think, the night demon is like the opposite of good, it's like the relationship between sunlight and shadow, as long as there is sunlight, there must be shadows, as long as there is good, there must be evil. The reincarnation of three thousand years must not only be the reincarnation of the night demon itself, but a reincarnation of the contest between good and evil. ”
I nodded and asked him, "But you've said so much, how are we going to deal with the Daredevil?" ”
Liang Houzai pondered for a moment before responding to me: "I now have a guess that it was not Jiang Taigong who suppressed the night demon at the beginning, but the daughter of the leader. The murals may have awakened her consciousness, awakened the guilt and kindness in her heart, when her body had been burned, but her consciousness had become more pure, at such times, her consciousness was extremely powerful, and once awakened, it could suppress the powerful night demons. ”
Listening to Liang Houzai say this, I also think it makes sense.
The physical body is destroyed, as long as the consciousness is not extinguished, this consciousness will indeed become extremely pure, and even the pure spirituality between heaven and earth can be felt, but this situation is extremely rare, because generally speaking, the physical body is destroyed, the three souls are scattered, and a person's consciousness is also destroyed.
Later, Liang said that the first of the four murals depicts the birth of the chief's daughter, the second and third represent two different periods when she was controlled by the night demons, and the fourth depicts the destruction of her body.
The first painting, telling her who she is, awakens her consciousness. The second and third tell her that the Daredevil had controlled her and that it was her enemy. The fourth painting tells her that her physical body has been destroyed, so that she no longer has distractions and is single-minded in suppressing the Night Demon.
It can be said that the real grave keeper in the night mound is the daughter of the chief.
Liang Houzai's statement can indeed explain many things, but my main concern is how to suppress the night demon again and let the Jizo Tomb enter the next 3,000 years of reincarnation.
Liang Houzai said: "Perhaps, in the previous three thousand years, the consciousness of the leader's daughter has gradually become weak, and it is difficult for her to suppress the night demon anymore, and the reason why Fanren put the demon pestle in the night mound seems to be to protect her wisp of consciousness from being swallowed by the consciousness of the night demon." And going back to the past of the night demon is actually to restore the consciousness of the leader's daughter to the strongest state three thousand years ago. If my speculation is correct, this is also the only way to suppress the night demon, after all, even Jiang Taigong back then chose such a seemingly cruel method. ”
Indeed, it is indeed cruel to let the chief's daughter suppress the night demon for thousands of years, which is equivalent to imprisoning her soul for thousands of years, and this imprisonment may continue.
This is the first time in my life that I have moved the murderous intent, I touched the Fantian Seal hanging on my waist, and secretly made up my mind, if the Fantian Seal can kill the night demon in one fell swoop, I will definitely not give it a chance to live. Only its complete demise can give another good soul permanent liberation.
Although my heart was overturned, I still gave Liang Houzai a calm smile and asked him: "If you want to restore her consciousness to the state it was in three thousand years ago, those four murals on the stone gate will come in handy, right?" ”
Liang Houzai nodded: "I think so, if she can see the content on the mural again, it should awaken her consciousness." Provided that my assumptions are correct. ”
I smiled: "You must be right, since you were a child, you have never missed it." But have you ever thought about it, why didn't the ancestors of Yuxian directly put these four murals in front of the night demon when they rebuilt the night mound? ”
Liang Houzai pursed his lips: "Who knows, I think they must have a good reason for doing this." ”
After speaking, Liang Houzai stood up, walked to the offering table and drew the spirit rune.
I didn't bother him anymore, and went back to the tent alone.
As I approached the tent, I saw Xian'er coming from a distance in a huff, and glared at me fiercely when she reached the entrance of her tent.
Her actions were so wrong that I was wondering when I saw Luo Fei coming from a distance with some clean clothes.
I took two quick steps and walked towards Luo Fei, who probably saw the puzzled look on my face and asked me what was wrong.
I said, "I saw Xian'er just now, what's wrong with her?" ”
Luo Fei glanced at the tent where she and Xian'er lived, smiled a little helplessly, and said, "Just now, your Uncle Ke gave us a hexagram, saying that it is not appropriate for me, Xian'er and Mr. Sun to enter the tomb with you tomorrow, for this, Xian'er just quarreled with your Uncle Ke." ”
Won't Xian'er and Luo Fei go in with us tomorrow, it's just right, I didn't plan to let the two of them follow in danger.
But Mr. Sun can't ......
I couldn't help frowning: "Can't Mr. Sun go too?" ”
Luo Fei looked at me complainingly and said, "You only care about Mr. Sun, can you go?" ”
I was immediately speechless by her question, and I hesitated for most of the day and didn't know how to respond to her.
If it were Xian'er, I would probably be pinching me now, but fortunately, Luo Fei's temper is good, although her expression is still a little complaining, but she said: "Forget it, I know that you didn't plan to take us there." Mr. Sun originally wanted to fight with Ke Ye, but Ke Ye said that this time the tomb is extraordinary, and if Mr. Sun goes, not only will he not be able to help you, but it may also affect the fortune of the three of you. ”
I sighed helplessly: "When I went to the tomb, there was no elder around me, and I was really a little bottomless in my heart." ”
Luo Fei smiled: "Ke Ye said, although your life cannot be calculated, but he has calculated, the matter of the Dizang Tomb will go relatively smoothly this time, the three of you must be fine, don't worry." ”
She said that, but in her eyes, I saw a trace of worry.
I couldn't help laughing and teasing her: "I'm very relieved, but how do I feel that you can't seem to rest assured." ”
Luo Fei's cheeks suddenly turned rosy, and she responded briefly: "I'm worried about Dorjee." After speaking, he walked into the tent with his clothes in his arms.
I went back to the tent and simply packed up the things I would use tomorrow, in fact, there was nothing to pack, just a rune paper bag, a green steel sword and a fantian seal, I put the rune paper bag in advance in the clothes to be worn tomorrow, and took a clean cloth, and wiped the green steel sword and Fantian seal well.
When I untied the silk cloth on the outside of Fantianyin, I was immediately affected by Fantianyin, and the whole person became a little irritable, but Fantianyin has been by my side for so long, and I have gradually become accustomed to this feeling.
At nearly nine o'clock in the evening, Liang Houzai came back with a bunch of evil charms, and at half past ten, Liu Shangang also brought three backpacks when he returned.
One of the largest backpacks was his own, and the other two were for me and Liang Houzai.
Liu Shangang put the three backpacks near the door, took a towel to wipe his face, and said to us: "Tonight, your two uncles and Mr. Sun went to sleep somewhere else, and the three of them snored for fear of affecting us." ”
Liang Houzai looked at the three backpacks and asked Liu Shangang: "Why do you prepare so many things." ”
Liu Shangang said: "I have seen the map before, the area behind the stone gate is very large, it is estimated that it will not be able to come out in a day or two, bring more supplies, it can be regarded as a rainy day, hehe." ”
I smiled and lay down on the bunk without saying a word.
I have complete trust in both Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang, not only because of their character, but also because of their ability. Liang Houzai is smart and good at reasoning with a cocoon, and so far, his reasoning has not been wrong. Although Liu Shangang usually looks unserious, he is actually more careful than anyone else, and he can prepare everything we need to use at the beginning of each action.
