"Are you sure!?" As soon as these words came out, I became surprised again, and when I turned my head to ask him, this bastard named Xia Yu smiled at me and said, "Actually, I'm not so sure, that's why I used the word 'maybe'." However, it's not groundless for me to say this, have you noticed that the people in this mysterious clan all look very similar to normal people, but only the guy we just saw who looks like a baby has six arms and nine unformed snake heads on the back of his neck? It's impossible not to notice this, in your habits."

"Well, you're right, I've noticed this, but what evidence do you have to prove that the coffins are not dead tribal leaders but shells?" I said, puzzled.

"It's easy, because there's one on the mural." Quite smugly, the goods said, "To tell you the truth, I have not been idle for the past two days, and most of the time I have been hiding in the place where the golden coffin is kept, I don't want to stay with those things for too long, nor for the objects in the coffin, I spent so much time trying to figure out what exactly is conveyed on those murals, but you may not think that in the process, I found a very interesting thing!" ”

"What's that?" Slightly stunned, I asked.

"Actually, it's nothing, it's the way the patriarch of this nine-headed tribe is generated, you and I both know that this nine-headed tribe is actually based on the water god as the main god, and the hydra Xiangliu as the ancestor to worship, but within this clan, there is only one guy who can grow into Xiangliu. However, even if he took the pill, Xiangliu's lifespan could not last as long as thousands of years, but to this day, within this mysterious tribe, the highest status is the white-bearded old monster with a long beard who has just died. You didn't see him, but I happened to catch up with him not long ago, and I took a look, and when the old man was put into the coffin, although he had a beard and eyebrows, I found that his body was translucent! Only one piece of skin that has already hardened! ”

The other party said, making a mysterious look, and when I heard this, I said dumbly: "You mean, what is contained there is not only not Xiangliu's real body, but even his body is not counted??? ”

"Yes, like I said, it's just a skin!" Xia Yu said, becoming more and more proud, "Do you think it's strange? Me too, sue you, there are even stranger things! Have you ever wondered what that guy's row of snake heads are on the back of his neck? In other words, do you think that those things are just a decoration and have no practical meaning? If it's true, then you're wrong again, those snake heads are alive, and after the brother died, those snake heads disappeared, took off their skin and retracted into Sangyu's chest like a parasite! The host's flesh and blood are devoured, then gathered together, and when the time comes, the elder-like old men dig them up and put them together in a clay pot. Then, just like the Yunnan people refining Gu, wait for them to kill each other, and finally the remaining snake with no snake skin like a worm will eat up the rest, and at this time it will have the soul of the nine-headed willow. When it takes in enough nutrients, it will transform into a human form, I look at the content on the mural, it should be the same as what we just saw, in the Danding, give birth to something like a fetus, if the clan has enough mana, it won't be long before the fetus can quickly grow into a person exactly like the young Xiangliu! Do you know what this kind of thing is called? Reincarnation! That's right, now I understand the true meaning of the so-called immortality! ”

Xia Yu said, as if he was a little emotional, I was stunned and shocked when I heard it, but from the knowledge I have so far, there is some truth in his words, and there is indeed a similar saying among some ethnic minorities in the southwest region.

They believe that the human soul can be parasitic, that is, if a person dies and is eaten by a lower creature before the soul returns to heaven, then that person's soul will have a certain chance of rebelling against the host and mastering the host's body and being reborn.

To paraphrase this point of view, Xia Yu's words become reasonable, I am not sure in what form the nine snakes behind Xiang Liu are stored in his body, but if this thing is innate, then, this kind of thing is probably a part of his soul.

First, the subject's life came to an end, and then the nine strange snakes parasitic in it kept his soul by devouring the flesh, and then, the nine strange snakes devoured and swallowed each other, and finally, all the souls that originally belonged to the nine-headed Xiangliu were occupied in the body and reborn.

Although this is a bit like chopping up a person and then putting it back together, but, in our opinion, the soul itself is multi-layered and fragmented, if done properly, even, a person's complete soul can be stripped out of many levels, three souls and seven souls are few, if you want to split, there are many more.

Based on such a foundation, this qiē becomes easy to understand, but when I think about it this way, I feel that this nine-headed Xiangliu is really a demon, and on the premise of not wanting to die, he can still come up with such a strange way!

Wait a minute, wait a minute, a flash of inspiration flashed, turned his head and asked Xia Yu: "What you just said is all on that mural?!" ”

"That's right." Xia Yu said and nodded.

"Then, have you ever thought that if this Xiangliu himself has a way to be reincarnated, then, what is he doing refining those pills!? He wasted so much effort to get piles of corpses, but that thing didn't mean anything to him! I said, I really didn't understand it, but after Xia Yu heard it, he smiled and said to me: "This is different, you can think about it, from his death, to his rebirth, and then to his rebirth after cultivating into the same awesome process as before, this process is actually very long." For him himself, waiting is torment, how can he have the heart to die and die? Besides, those pills may not be important to him, but for his people, this is a matter of life and death! ”
