Chapter 118: Five Ghost Emperors Nuwa
"Senior Brother Wang, why are you so preoccupied?"
"It's just that I've been a little tired lately, so it's good to take a break. Chu Wangxian took advantage of the situation.
"Senior brother, don't bluff me, is it because of Senior Sister Ji's matter? She is the descendant of the Yellow Emperor, it is impossible for you. ”
Chu Wangxian immediately remained silent.
It's really speechless, the surname Ji, the surname of the Zhou Dynasty and the vassal states of Wu, Lu, Yan, Wei, Jin, Zheng and other vassal states, is this the view of the door two thousand five hundred years ago?
"Poetry|Qifeng|Nanshan" contains: Men and women are not well-known and do not know each other.
The aristocratic marriage of the Zhou Dynasty was completely concerned with the orders of their parents, and the words of the matchmaker seemed to be not exempt from vulgarity.
Chu Wangxian's eyes were clear, and he quietly looked at the woman in the white dress in front of him, at this moment, the more he said, the bigger the flaws, it was best to shut up.
When the woman in the white dress saw Chu Wangxian's attitude, she thought that Chu Wangxian had forgotten Senior Sister Ji and was a negative person, so she couldn't help but have a little temper.
Directly asked:
"When is Senior Brother Wang going to go to the Five Ghost Realms?"
Chu Wangxian chuckled in his heart, completely caught off guard.
Isn't there supposed to be six realms of reincarnation?
"I'm dizzy today, I've forgotten a lot of things, can my junior sister tell me what the situation is in the Five Ghost Realms?" Chu Wangxian asked fixedly, looking at the frowning expression of the woman opposite, it was too real, this could not be an illusion.
The woman in front of her frowned, her eyes widened, and she didn't have a good breath:
"Senior Brother Wang, aren't you afraid, in the Five Ghost Realms, the hundred clans have always wanted to break through the seal and bring disaster to the world, if it weren't for the Lord of Reincarnation, Nuwa would suppress it, and I don't know how many living beings would be ruined. ”
"We have three clear gates, every year there are disciples who want to enter the five ghost realms, exterminate evil ghosts, and guard the five gates, this time Senior Sister Ji is also going to go, but there are many auspicious ones. ”
"Nuwa Niangniang is in the ghost world?" Chu Wangxian couldn't help asking.
Seeing that Chu Wangxian didn't mention Senior Sister Ji's safety, the woman just asked about the five ghost realms, and was so angry that she didn't want to speak.
The atmosphere was stiff, the three of them walked briskly, and the woman was like a bull leading the way.
Chu Wangxian glanced at the palace again, estimating that if he didn't ask any more, he would miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Only women and villains are difficult to raise, those who are close are not inferior, and those who are far away are resentful. He paused, shook his head and sighed, provoking the woman to speak.
"Senior Brother Wang, you!" the woman pointed at Chu Wangxian, as if she was so angry.
"Senior sister, this is said by a person named Kong Qiu, if you want to find him, go to him! Or junior sister answers my question, is Nuwa Niangniang in the ghost world?"
"Nuwa Niangniang is the Five Ghost Emperors, where can you be if you are not in the ghost world? Senior brother, are you stealing wine again?"
The corner of the man's mouth smiled, and he frowned and blamed Chu Wangxiandao.
Today, Senior Brother Wang's speech was reversed, which also caused the man to be suspicious, and his eyes couldn't help glancing.
Chu Wangxian no longer tempted, and covered it up, his role-playing was not perfect, and if he continued to talk about it, he would be exposed sooner or later.
In silence, Chu Wangxian's two eyebrows were pressed down, and he quickly digested and chewed these words.
In just a few words, his worldview has been shattered.
Five Ghost Realms, Nuwa, the Lord of Reincarnation, Five Gates, Five Ghost Emperors.
The five ghost realms are easy to understand, and they are nothing more than another name for the underworld, the ghost world, and the underworld.
The five gates can also be understood, similar to the gates of the underworld.
The most incomprehensible identity of Nuwa, the Lord of Reincarnation?
Chu Wangxian began to speculate that Nuwa was related to the ghost world, but there was not a single word in the history books.
That Nuwa Niangniang died and became a ghost emperor?
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas|The Great Wilderness of the West" contains: There are ten gods, named Nuwa's intestines, turned into gods, in the vast wilderness, and across the road.
Nuwa Niangniang died, and her intestines turned into ten gods.
This is the only record that may involve the death of Nuwa Niangniang.
Inferring again, Chu Wangxian found that he couldn't push it on, and there were very few historical materials about Nuwa Niangniang, not to mention how Nuwa Niangniang died.
It is said that Nuwa represents fertility, and the Lord of reincarnation involves reincarnation, but it also makes sense.
But listening to this tone, Nuwa seems to be an existence similar to Hades in the ghost world. This is also too different from the ghost world he knows, isn't the underworld under the control of the king of Yama?
Chu Wangxian swallowed his saliva in his throat, stepped forward with momentum, and asked with his eyes, "I heard that there is a king of Yama in the Five Ghost Realms, have you heard of it?"
"Who is King Yama? Senior brother, are you taking the school exam?"
"Are you sure you haven't heard of it?"
"There is no such person!" said the woman in the white dress angrily.
Isn't there such a person as King Yama?
Chu Wangxian traced back to the historical materials and realized that the word Yama King came from Buddhism.
In Hindu mythology, the king of the underworld is called "King Yamara", and after Buddhism was introduced to China from India, Yama began to spread in China.
If it is 2,500 years ago, the Serb branch that crisscrossed Central Asia, the saint of the Shakyamuni tribe, it seems that Shakyamuni had not yet been born or had just been born.
Naturally, there is no Buddhism, and there is no king of Yama.
In addition, Daomen also has the legend of the ten halls of the king of Yama, the king of Qinguang, the king of Chujiang, the emperor of Song, the king of Wuguan, the king of Yama, the king of Biancheng, the king of Taishan, the king of the city, the king of equality, and the king of the wheel. This seems to be the people under the command of Taishang Laojun.
Now it is 2,500 years ago, there is no Buddha Gate, there is no Dao Gate, this is the form of the primitive immortal cultivation world in China.
The emperor of the ghost world at this moment is Nuwa Niangniang.
But back in the 21st century, to this day, why do we only hear about King Yama and don't see Nuwa Niangniang?
What role did this later Buddhism play in the changes of this ghost world?
Chu Wangxian's thoughts flew farther and farther, counting the Buddhas of this Buddhist sect, they were also foreigners. "Three Thousand Buddha Names Sutra", saying that there are three thousand Buddhas, "Buddha Saying Buddha Names Sutra", saying that there are tens of thousands of Buddhas, this is a big force that goes hand in hand with Taoism.
"Senior Brother Wang, you have to drink less, now you are talking nonsense, if the master knows, you will not have to suffer from the whipping soul at the Soul Suppression Table. ”
Chu Wangxian woke up, "Thank you, junior brother!"
"There is something tiring, Master may want to ask me about the Hundred Clans, I am dizzy now, can you remind me. ”
Chu Wangxian mentioned the Hundred Clans again.
The two people who led the way paused, and it felt like being struck by lightning, but the man held back his impatience and said euphemistically:
"Senior brother is really forgetful, since the ancestor of Yan and Huang expelled the hundred clans from the human world. Now that they have fled to the Five Ghost Realms, the Ancient Demon Realm, and the Ten Thousand Domains Demon Realm, the hundred clans are becoming more and more restless. ”
"The Yanhuang Immortal Sect will send monks to exterminate the Three Realms and Hundred Clans, this is a great righteousness, if the master gives you a task, senior brother, don't shirk it, don't make the master angry. ”
Chu Wangxian listened attentively, and his heart was fluctuating like a huge wave.
The more you ask, the more questions you ask.
The enemy of the Yan and Huang clan is the Hundred Clans.
Finally knowing who the enemy is, the hundred tribes who were driven out of the human world, no wonder there are so many inexplicable weird countries recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".
Nuwa Niangniang guards the five ghost realms and guards the Yanhuang line.
On this trip, I finally learned some things about the ancient ghost world.
Chu Wangxian was about to ask again, but the two people who led the way had already stopped in front of a divine palace.
"Senior Brother Wang, Master Venerable is waiting for you, come in. The woman urged with a little impatience, today's Senior Brother Wang is too strange.
Chu Wangxian glanced at the woman, he was not surnamed Wang.
