43. Space and Rebirth

Souls cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time, so even shady places must not be guaranteed to stay in this place for a long time, and if this is the case, then aren't the places in our cities that have been without light for many years also crowded with souls? So I think there must be a limit to how long these things can last outside after they fly out of the membrane of the human heart after death. In this way, the whirlpools around us have a saying.

Otherwise, why would the time vortex be created by the people of the Enlightenment Kingdom? The result of this is that those souls do not live in this place for long, they only travel through the time vortex to a certain time to sustain their lives.

No, no, I dispelled my thoughts while walking, the people of Wuqi pay attention to a concept of rebirth, in such a space, withdraw their souls from the body, and then keep their bodies incorruptible, this is exactly what scientists call frozen people, I remember that the rich are generally born with incurable diseases, so they use flash freezing, so that they can be treated and thawed later. Back in 1773, Benjamin? Franklin considered using refrigeration to freeze the body for a certain time and then thaw it to resurrect the human body. In 1964, the term "cryonics" first appeared in "Immortal Prospects", and from then on, cryonics, a discipline that studies the freezing of human tissues before they decompose, was born. Today, scientists around the world have evaluated that the human body can be resurrected after cryotherapy. At the end of 1994, the United States officially recognized the legal status of cryonics, and the world's largest cryonics treatment institutions and storage centers are located in the United States, and hundreds of people have received cryonics treatment so far.

But thousands of years ago in China, did people who were born again with such a similar method have already appeared? If anything, the odds are even better than those of the frozen people.

I looked at the walls that were getting closer and closer to us. Thinking in the heart, soul? Why did Pangu design an inquiry into this topic? And the purpose of coming to Gumo doesn't seem to be as simple as I think, first of all, they know that there is a soul vortex in the ancient city. Besides, everything is as simple as I imagined? I always feel that things will not be so superficial.

After a while, we followed the distribution of the buildings to the outside of the city wall, and I have to say that the city is still very large. We walked for half an hour from the entrance to the side door, and I don't know if it was the influence of the Bagua Destiny Palace Yin Mansion Array they said, and my brain suddenly felt a little dizzy and drowsy. Apparently I bypassed those whirlpools, huh? But at this moment, as the sound of the waves crashing outside the wall gradually reached my ears, I slowly soothed.

Sticking to the cool stones, a fresh smell comes to the nose. "How are we going to get there?"

"There should be someone to bring water into the city, and we can find the abandoned channel."

"Don't be kidding, you illiterate, can you drink seawater?" Dawn sighed and said, "Come with me." ”

"You?" I questioned, but reacted immediately. That's right, Dawn is a person from Pangu, even if Pangu didn't tell him the secret of sucking people's souls in this city, then he would still know a little bit about other things.

"You just follow me, now that you're here, I think I know how to get there, I've studied the design of ancient buildings, and I know that it's impossible to build up the walls of the city near the sea. Blocking the sea, there should be a relatively large lake here. You can walk under the lake, because it has been abandoned for too long, so you don't have to worry about water in the lake. "Dawn sighed again." Basic common sense! ”

As soon as he said this, Xie Chenhui and I were almost unable to refute it, and with a red face, we followed him all the way down the city wall to the depths of the city, and walked more and more inside. We can see a tall tower towering in the darkness as we follow the huge light of the searchlight, the tip of which is no longer in the position where the searchlight can shine. "If we walk past it, we might be able to see it in its entirety." Dawn said.

"Maybe it's a staircase from here to the ground!" I smiled, "If only it were as tall as the Heavenly God Tree." ”

"Come on! Don't go overboard, if you can go out so easily, why don't those Gumo people see each other a few times a year. "Dawn led us through a dead wood area and then jumped off a depression." That's it, he's down there. Looking at it with a flashlight, it was dark in front of me, and I couldn't see anything, but at least it wasn't the city wall, and the wind here was also very strong, and the wind we felt in the sewer before was probably blown from here. ”

"Walk down here and you'll find a water source." I felt the humid air through the sea breeze. "Xie Chenhui, give me the searchlight, I'll go over and have a look first."

This is a pond, and the soil under my feet has cracked after a long period of drought, and in the cracks you can even see snake-like creatures burrowing into it, these are all sea creatures, washed through the water below, and finally left here during the drought, and I don't know how they survived without water for a long time, and it seems that they have all become terrestrial animals.

I trampled on one of those worms at random, and saw that there was not even a single blood flowing out of it, like a skin sac. "I've really gained a lot of knowledge here!"

"This is a sea of paleontology, there are creatures here hundreds of millions of years ago, and maybe there will be another evolutionary route! It's like this thing. Dawn seemed to be familiar with this place, and as he walked, he explained to us, "The people of Gumo are not actually due to natural disasters that caused the decline of the entire city, do you think! If it was really the collapse of the city, would they still have living people? ”

I nodded, "It's like speculating in the Tower of Babel, it's actually the existing underground city, and then there's Gumo above." How the hell do they do it? Actually, my previous speculation was also clouded, didn't it? It's just the last thing that runs through all the threads. ”

"What do you mean is how the soul reattaches itself to the corpse and resurrects it." Xie Chenhui finally found a sentence and interjected.

"I'm sure so, but there's always something to say no." Before I could speak, I soon heard the sound of a wave. Then my eyes rose as the ground sloped beneath my feet, and a dusk of water appeared in front of me.

"It's water, it's seawater!" Xie Chenhui took off his backpack and jumped into the sea while pulling his clothes.

"Let's wash up!" I sighed. I never thought that the sea would surprise me so much, because my throat was already hungry and thirsty along the way, coupled with the constant analysis and conversation. I removed my backpack and removed a bucket of semi-permeable membrane from the bag. This film can serve as a purpose to separate fresh water from salt, because under normal circumstances, semi-permeable membranes allow solvents in solution to pass through, but not solutes. Due to the high salinity of the seawater. If seawater is separated from fresh water with a semi-permeable membrane, the freshwater will diffuse to one side of the seawater through the semi-permeable membrane.

It's not just the seawater, but the stagnant water that has too many bacteria in it, and even the dirty water that runs through it can make us drink it directly.

"Things, you take them, and by the way, put up the shelves of life." I laughed and undressed and plunged into the ocean, and at this point I finally understood why some people say that humans depend on water more than anything.

There was not a single ray of light in the sea, and when I looked up, the searchlight set up by the dawn shook brightly overhead. I swam to the side and the gentle water dragged me, I closed my eyes and threw myself into it, at this moment it seemed that everything had nothing to do with me, I don't know how long it took, I seemed to sink a long distance, and finally felt that I couldn't hold my breath, I opened my eyes and swam up, but at this moment I saw a huge stone tablet stuck in the rock below me.

"What's that?" I swam over with some curiosity. But it was too dark down there, and I was lucky to see the stele just now. I had no choice but to dive up as the lights swept down again.

"Why has it been so long, Xie Chenhui said that you pooped down there, and I believed it." As I swam up, I saw Dawn sitting on a rock on the shore, wiping his body with a towel, and the previous light was the lamp that illuminated his skin while he sat in the water.

"Why didn't I find out you still have this cleanliness fetish?" I ignored his words and joked on him.

"Compared to what you said, I still like Xie Chenhui to say that I am narcissistic." As he spoke, he threw me a towel.

"Not yet, I'll go down later."

"Go down?"

"I saw a stone tablet below, and it seems."

"Yin drive keel ship. The sky fell into the Yellow Spring Sea. This must be what is written on the stele, otherwise who do you think Luo Ping's stele carved it? In fact, there are many more of those things on this coastline, and they are all signposts that are put out so that people who go out from here can come back smoothly. Yin drives the keel boat, and the sky falls into the Yellow Spring Sea. In fact, the meaning of this sentence is that they are messengers from heaven. Piloted a ship made of dragon bones to this sea. Dawn said as she tugged on his biceps and smiled at me.

"Okay!" I took the towel and put it on my shoulder, and walked towards the shore, the fire on the shore had been lit, Xie Chenhui was sitting next to him grilling meat skewers, I don't know why, the kind of person who is usually serious just now made me think of the old man, the old man is such a person, serious with a hint of ruffianism. Although it wasn't me, or I didn't know who the old man really was, in retrospect, a sullen sourness spread.

After getting dressed and eating, we hid in our respective tents, Xie Chenhui and Liming couldn't figure out why I was suddenly silent, maybe one day they would know! I closed my eyes and opened them, the green in my eyes had not yet faded, and I couldn't guarantee that I would get out of here alive if I was really dead. Honor me, a strange passerby. I looked at the time and saw that it was not early, and in order to maintain the habit of going to bed early and waking up early, I forced myself to sleep.

But just as I was being attacked by sleepiness, I heard a voice coming from the depths of the sea. (To be continued......)
