Chapter 7: Dead End
"Okay, I'm clear about that, and besides, I heard what you just said, this soul returning to the forest is very evil? I want to know more about it. ”
Regarding this issue, He Yanggang attaches great importance to it, because listening to their words, this soul migration is not a collective reincarnation.
It was a matter of his own life and death, and He Yanggang felt that it was better to inquire clearly.
He Yanggang was waiting for the next step, but Qin Shui'er looked at him with a shocked expression.
What's going on? What lightning point did I trigger?
"You don't even know about the soul returning to the forest?" Qin Shui'er was shocked: "Even if you are from other dynasties, you should know the phrase 'the soul returns to the forest and does not return to the soul', are you someone from the other five continents or above?"
Although Qin Shui'er didn't say the answer she wanted to know, He Yanggang still heard something.
There seem to be six continents in this world, and the Soul Return Forest seems to be very famous, and everyone on this continent knows about it, and what He Yanggang wants to know should be the meaning of the phrase "The soul returns to the forest and does not return to the soul".
What does it mean to call the soul to return to the forest but not to the soul?
He Yanggang was puzzled, so he had to continue to consult Qin Shui'er.
"I'm not from other continents, but I grew up in the clan since I was a child, and I don't communicate with people very much on weekdays, so I don't know much about mainland things. He Yanggang made up a life history for himself and wanted to deal with it.
"I see, you're unlucky, but it's too late to say anything. Qin Shui'er sighed.
I really believed it, no wonder I was cremated and Feng flickered with a letter.
"The soul returns to the forest, a forest where the soul cannot stay. Qin Shui'er explained: "All the soul bodies in the range of this forest will be pulled to a certain place in the center of the forest, and the wave-like army of soul bodies will fly to the destination like a swallow returning to the nest, unable to stop or break away, so the unknown destination is called the place where the soul returns, and this forest is also called the soul returning forest." ”
When He Yang heard this, he was sure in his heart, what else could this be?
"It is precisely because the soul cannot be separated that it cannot be saved, and the soul that enters must die, so there is a saying that the soul does not return. Qin Shui'er continued.
He Yanggang thought to himself, they were all reincarnated, and it would be strange to come back.
"So, you're really, it's not good to play anywhere, you have to choose this place, and as for the layer of golden light outside of you, it's useless here. Qin Shui'er said regretfully.
Look, look, what a gentle and kind girl! I am still sorry for others in this situation.
It's all to blame on that damn turkey, and I killed such a good girl by making a mistake, and I really want to pinch it to death.
Thinking in his heart, he couldn't help but turn his head and glared at the cremation phoenix.
was glared at inexplicably by He Yanggang, and the fire of the cremation phoenix rushed straight to his head, and finally scolded 'damn human' to suppress the anger.
Seeing that He Yanggang was so unkind to the cremation phoenix, Qin Shui'er was a little happy, after all, this person was on his side.
"Actually, there are still some secrets about the Soul Return Forest, which only those at the top of the continent know, and I, as the princess's guard, have also learned something from the mouth of the patriarch. ”
Looking at Qin Shui'er's expectant eyes that seemed to say, 'Ask me, ask me quickly', He Yanggang felt a pang in his heart, and he was really a little girl who didn't ask about the world.
"Okay, I hope Miss Shui'er can tell me the secret. He Yanggang asked very cooperatively.
"Since you asked me, then I'll tell you, ordinary people don't know this secret. Qin Shui'er said proudly.
"Our patriarch said that these phenomena of souls returning to the forest are man-made, and that these souls that are gathered will eventually be sacrificed. Qin Zhishui said solemnly.
A sentence made He Yang Gang like a lightning strike, and if he was sacrificed, wouldn't his soul be scattered?
He Yanggang couldn't accept it, what kind of joke was he making, suffering such a big crime, just to become someone else's nourishment?
"Miss Shui'er, how true is what you say?" He Yanggang said solemnly.
Looking at He Yanggang, who was suddenly a little dignified, Qin Shui'er was a little strange, wasn't it very free and easy before? Why is it suddenly like this.
If He Yanggang knew Qin Shui'er's thoughts, he would definitely be embarrassed.
After all, he always thought that he was going to be resurrected, so he didn't care about his current situation, and he would have thought that he would die more completely.
"Originally, I was also skeptical of the patriarch's words, but combined with the fact that the Soul Return Forest is the largest producer of soul crystals on the mainland, I feel that this matter should be inseparable. Qin Shui'er replied.
He Yanggang felt desperate when he heard this, this evidence is simply impeccable, if it is false, it is too coincidental.
After a few years of traveling in the universe, the dark and lonely environment made He Yanggang fall on the verge of collapse again and again, and what can make him recover from the collapse again and again is only the obsession of resurrection in the other world.
Coming to this continent a few years ago, He Yanggang was very happy, and he felt that the suffering he had suffered before was worth it.
However, God's joke was too big, and the ardent hope in my heart turned into a desperate finale.
Without the support of faith, He Yanggang finally collapsed, and came across the universe to become someone else's fertilizer, which is really ridiculous and sad.
He Yanggang's soul flickered with his violent mood swings.
"Hahaha...... I didn't expect it to be so fragile, I knew that Lao Tzu wouldn't quarrel with him, just a few words to provoke him, hahaha......" Cremation Feng on the side laughed loudly.
Qin Shui'er was a little at a loss, because she showed off her secrets, and as a result, she hurt her friends like this, and she blamed herself for being too talkative.
was innocent and kind, she did not blame He Yanggang's glass heart, but took all the fault on herself.
"However, the strange thing is that the amount of soul crystals is relatively small, not even one in 100,000. With such a large amount of soul body, how could there be only so much output?" Qin Shui'er said loudly.
She said something remedy, maybe it could give He Yanggang a hope.
Sure enough, when He Yanggang heard this, he felt that things had a turn for the better.
Moreover, he thought of the glimmer of opportunity that Qin Shui'er said before, why can't he earn it.
Seeing that He Yanggang's soul body was stabilizing, and his eyes were shiny again, the cremation phoenix on the side was unhappy.
"One in 100,000 is less, but it is the amount that flows into the outside of the forest, and the big head must have been digested by the beasts inside the forest. Cremation Feng said disdainfully.
He Yanggang knew that Cremation Feng was careful, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him.
And He Yanggang's ignorance made Cremation Phoenix jump for a while.
"Miss Shui'er, you said before that the miscellaneous chicken didn't dare to make a move on me, because he still took into account the last chance, I don't know what this opportunity is?"
"Hahaha! Are you still trying to resurrect yourself through this method? Cremation Feng sneered.
"Shut up, miscellaneous chicken, did I ask you?
Qin Shui'er on the side also glared at the cremation phoenix, and finally found a reason to persuade him to come back, what can you do if you say a few words to stimulate him to death or live?
Looking at the murderous eyes of the two, Cremation Feng shut up, after all, there is a glass heart here, if the stimulation is too much, this goods will die with himself.
Seeing that the cremation phoenix confessed, He Yang just cast an inquiring glance at Qin Shui'er.
"There's a hint of life here, but it's almost the same as zero, are you sure you want to know?" I'm afraid you'll ...... when you know about it," Qin Shui'er said weakly.
He Yanggang was a little ashamed, his performance just now was too glassy.
"You just said that you just remembered some things from the past and hit a little hard, but now it's fine. He Yanggang explained.
"Really?" Qin Shui'er doubted.
God, I don't even believe Qin Shui'er, did you behave so badly just now? What a shame!
"Really, absolutely, really, say it!"
He Yanggang was glad that he was now a soul body, otherwise he would definitely blush.
"Then I said, you have to hold on!" Qin Shui'er reminded.
"Originally, the soul that enters the soul return forest is absolutely dead, the soul seems to be locked, it is not possible to forcibly take it out of the forest, it is useless to take it away, every time night falls, all the soul bodies will be pulled to the forest, and the life that is resurrected by taking away or resurrected by other methods will also be forcibly pulled out of the soul, and there is nothing to hide. Countless methods have been tried over the years, but never succeeded. ”
Although I was mentally prepared, I didn't expect this Jedi to be so extinct.
He Yanggang is now curious about how that glimmer of hope came about.
"The Soul Eater Tree, a magical treasure tree that feeds on souls, only grows in places where souls gather, and places like the Soul Return Forest are the most suitable fertile soil for them, and there is no one. Qin Shui'er said.
When He Yanggang heard it, he felt that the point was coming.
"This tree is the most terrifying thing for the soul body, because the soul captured by this tree has basically no chance of survival. However, it is this mortal experience that can find a way out of this forest. ”
"The devoured soul will become the nourishment for the growth of the Soul Eater Tree, and the Soul Purifying Fruit it produces is the treasure that all beings crave. ”
Speaking of the Soul Purifying Fruit, Qin Shui'er stopped, her eyes full of hot and coveted expressions.
"Could it be that as long as you want to get the Pure Soul Fruit, you can be resurrected?" He Yang just said loudly, interrupting Qin Shui'er who was wandering outside the world.
"That's not it, it would be nice if it was that simple, after all, although the Soul Eater Tree is rare, there are still quite a few of them, and we have one in our clan. Qin Shui'er explained.
He Yang Gang was speechless, isn't it the treasure that all lives crave? How can there be a lot, don't be funny?
Looking at He Yanggang's disbelieving eyes, Qin Shui'er was a little unconvinced.
"Really, I didn't lie to you. ”
"Well, I'm sure you didn't lie to me. He Yanggang said perfunctorily.
"You... Don't believe me, I've seen it with my own eyes, and there's only one fruit on it, and I've heard that it's been hanging on it for more than 10,000 years and it's not ripe! Qin Shui'er argued.
"If it's such an important thing, why did you see it? shouldn't it be under strict guard?" He Yanggang asked.
"It's... This, because I heard that it is delicious, so... So the little princess took me to steal it. Qin Shui'er swallowed.
