Chapter 43: The Parasite 6
That beauty was none other than Miss Xie's corpse.
At this time, my father's eyes could not see the heat or black gas, and the sky was nearly late, and the sky was full of yellow, orange and orange everywhere, and it was in the transition time of alternating white and black, and everything in the world was covered with a layer of pale yellow color, and it was quite mysterious and mysterious for a while. Under the background of this environment and time, Grandma couldn't see any signs that Miss Xie was a corpse, and in a trance, he thought that his previous judgment was wrong. She is not a long-dead corpse that has begun to decompose inside, but a beauty who no living man can resist the temptation.
Later, when my grandfather taught my grandfather, he said that people are hallucinated by ghosts, and it is often ghosts who take advantage of people's own weaknesses. Some people are greedy, some people are lazy, some people are jealous, some people are lustful, and so on. For example, a water ghost will turn into a beautiful woman swimming near the water, tempting a man into the water. If people can restrain their weaknesses, it will be difficult for them to succeed. Even sometimes people's kindness can become weaknesses, such as when the water ghost is looking for a stand-in, he will also transform into a drowning person to be rescued, and let the well-wisher go into the water and reach out to save him, and he will be dragged into the water by the water ghost.
When I was young, my grandfather's mood was not calm enough, and he would be tempted.
Miss Xie's corpse was wearing a yellow tight-fitting cheongsam, and her body was only wrapped, and her curves were all over the place. The cheongsam was originally a kind of clothing worn by the women of the Qing Dynasty, with no slits on both sides, sleeves eight inches to one foot long, and colorful green embroidered on the edges of the clothes. Later, women's minds tended to be open-minded, and their clothes were no longer so conservative, so the cheongsam was improved to have a straight collar, a right oblique placket, a tight waist, and a length below the knee, with slits on both sides and smaller cuffs. Compared with before, the cheongsam at this time boldly exposed the curves of the woman's body, and what was even more daring was to expose the white legs at the slit, the visible calves with low slits, and the visible thighs with high slits. Some people applaud the transformation of the cheongsam, while others denounce it as erotic and carnal desire, and they can't wait to dip the woman wearing the new and improved cheongsam in a pig cage, ride a wooden horse, and cut it with a thousand knives.
Miss Xie's corpse was wearing this cheongsam with a thousand cuts.
There were no spots or wrinkles in her outcrops, and she was as smooth and fine as porcelain, and shattered when struck.
Grandpa heard Luo Buzhai sigh softly: "Grandma......"
Grandpa felt that Luo Buzhai's sigh was different from the emotions he expressed when he first saw Miss Xie's corpse. Last time, I just peeked into her level and involuntarily said it. This time, I sincerely admired that this level of strength could repair a dead human body so perfectly. Even if a fox that has been cultivating for five hundred years transforms into an adult, it is inevitable that there will be times when the fox's tail is exposed. Even the roe deer spirit of the radish village scratched the woman's inner arm to expose flaws due to the natural lack of body shape.
The cultivation of Miss Xie's corpse in front of her far exceeded that of a five-hundred-year-old fox spirit and a roe deer spirit with a magic weapon.
This is the embodiment of grandma-level strength.
Miss Xie's corpse saw that both of them in the room were surprised, and couldn't help but show a smug look. She walked in and said, "What's wrong?" Didn't we meet twice today? Can't recognize me now? ”
"I know Miss Xie, but I can't recognize you." Daddy hurriedly retracted his mind and said.
Luo Buzhai also hurriedly adjusted his sitting posture and blinked.
Miss Xie's corpse turned the blood-colored jade bracelet on her wrist and asked, "Do you recognize it?" ”
Grandpa shook his head and said, "I've heard of it before I came to the Lost Bridge, but I've never seen it." ”
"That's who I am." She said.
When Grandpa and Luo Buzhai were chatting, Zhu Yuzi perched on the beam above their heads and listened. After Miss Xie's body walked in, the bamboo slip was gone.
Daddy didn't expect Miss Xie's father to tell him not to go to his daughter's boudoir, but his daughter found it from the boudoir.
"Miss Xie, what are you doing here?" Daddy asked.
Miss Xie's corpse smiled and said, "I'm here to save you from looking for me." ”
"What are you doing with me?" Daddy asked.
The smile on Miss Xie's corpse's face faded, and she said, "I'll tell you about my cause and effect, and let you make a decision." ”
"What decision?"
"If you decide to let me go, I won't let me go." Miss Xie's corpse said.
Daddy stretched out his hand to an empty chair and said, "Please sit down and speak slowly." As for whether to let it go or not, don't say it so quickly, and in the end, it is your old man who decides whether to let it go or not, and we may not know. Grandpa deliberately said the words "your old man" very slowly and emphatically, letting her know that the two of them had a basic judgment about her situation. The words "you old man" can not only indicate an estimate of her strength, but also indicate a grasp of her Taoist age. The last time she accidentally reported her birthday, and did not report the age of the deceased Miss Xie, her father and Luo Buzhai had predicted that her age would be at least nearly sixty years old. Of course, this is the lowest estimate. She can be two sixty, three sixty, or even ten sixty, twenty sixty.
Daddy was inclined to guess that she was ten sixty years old, probably six hundred years of cultivation. This is worthy of her strength to control the corpse qi so naturally. As for what kind of strength can condense the corpse qi into shape, Grandpa is not sure yet.
Miss Xie's body sat down generously on the chair, straightened the cheongsam slightly, slightly covered her exposed feet, and then pointed to a tree outside the window and said, "Look at that sparrow." ”
Outside the window is a locust tree, and on the locust tree stands a small sparrow, which is chirping, jumping up and down on the branches.
Grandpa and Luo Buzhai both saw the sparrow, but they didn't know what Miss Xie's corpse was going to say.
A smile tugged at the corner of Miss Xie's corpse's mouth, and she said, "I know that you are familiar with the Xuanhuang technique, the way of yin and yang, so tell me, if that sparrow sees us and suddenly wants to cultivate into a human form, how many years will it take?" ”
Luo Buzhai said: "I have caught a lot of animal spirits, rat spirits, fox spirits, roe deer spirits, etc., and I know that their cultivation process is very difficult. Speaking of that sparrow, even if it suddenly had a scheming and wanted to become an adult, it didn't necessarily take many years to become an adult. First of all, it must have a chance and a spiritual wisdom. Animals such as foxes, snakes, turtles, and raccoon cats with high intelligence may be susceptible to chance. However, sparrows with lower intelligence are much less likely to get a chance. Even if there is a chance, it will pass by. ”
"What if you get a chance?" Miss Xie's corpse asked, without the slightest hostility, like an ordinary mortal who had come to humbly seek enlightenment.
"If by chance, it has a good mind, it will take at least five or six hundred years to cultivate into a human form. In these five or six hundred years, even if you don't meet someone like me to capture, there will be a catastrophe. Because it disturbs the six reincarnations of people, ghosts, animals, etc., the sky will use lightning strikes to force it to disappear, so this is also called thunder tribulation. Thunder Tribulation is not necessarily a direct strike by lightning, but more often it is to scatter their souls, or to frighten their souls. After the soul dissipates, the weaker ones are all gone. The stronger ones may be able to recondense their souls, but their cultivation will be greatly reduced, and their cultivation will be damaged for tens to hundreds of years. Dozens or hundreds of years before it is written off, and you need to start all over again. Luo Buzhai said.
Grandpa interjected: "In this way, it will take five or six hundred years at the shortest, and more than a thousand years at the longest. ”
Luo Buzhai said: "That's right. ”
Grandpa said: "I don't know much about elf cultivation. But I heard a Taoist priest say a sentence before, describing the difficulty of other beings cultivating into human form. The Taoist priest said that the cultivation of other living beings is as difficult as a blind turtle encountering a floating hole in a sea. ”
Luo Buzhai had never heard of this kind of saying, and asked his father: "The blind turtle in the sea meets the floating hole?" ”
Grandpa nodded and said, "Yes." A blind turtle was swimming in the middle of the ocean when it came across a floating log. There was a hole in the wood that was just big enough for a turtle's head. The difficulty of other creatures cultivating into human form is as difficult as the blind turtle burrowing its head into a hole in a wood just as it comes to the surface. ”
Miss Xie's corpse smiled, "Yes." When I first started cultivating, I heard this kind of parable. But I still want to become an adult. ”
Luo Buzhai was surprised: "Are you another living being?" Not a ghost? ”
Both Luo Buzhai and Grandpa believe that Miss Xie's corpse has a ghost with great energy, because only ghosts with no sustenance need to occupy the human body and control the human body. The human body is like a place of refuge, and it is like an artifact that holds the soul. This is also the reason why the phenomenon of ghost possession occurs in general.
They didn't expect Miss Xie's corpse to say that she had cultivated into a human form.
Luo Buzhai asked, "Since you are a cultivator of other living beings, did you deliberately cultivate into the appearance of Miss Xie?" You can cultivate like her, so why forcibly take possession of her dead body? ”
Grandpa glanced at Miss Xie's corpse in front of him, and said unhurriedly, "Is it that your body has disappeared or been damaged by the lightning tribulation?" ”
Miss Xie's corpse didn't answer their questions, and continued the previous topic and said, "Mr. Luo, since you know that it is so difficult for a sparrow to cultivate into an adult, how difficult do you say it is for the tree where the sparrow inhabits to cultivate into a human form?" ”
Luo Buzhai said: "Because the spiritual intelligence of the tree is worse than that of a sparrow, it has to cultivate into a human form, which is twice as difficult as a sparrow. ”
Miss Xie's corpse continued to ask, "Mr. Luo, what if the cultivation is a piece of moss growing on a tree, or a small grass attached to a tree?" ”
Luo Buzhai said: "It's twice as difficult as cultivating a tree to a human form!" ”
Miss Xie's corpse revealed her identity and said, "I am the moss growing on the tree, the grass attached to the tree." ”
"Huh?" Luo Buzhai said in surprise.
Grandpa was also dumbfounded.
"I'm from the parasitic grass cultivation." Miss Xie's corpse smiled slightly smugly. She took off the blood-colored jade bracelet and placed it flat in the palm of her hand. The bloodshot in the jade bracelet flowed, and the end of the bloodshot drilled out of the crystal jade like a small grass sprouting, first arched into a ball, bowed its head and shrunk like a bean sprout, but it was blood-red, and then gradually stretched, as if to meet the sun, and grew into a small grass, green and dripping.
