Chapter 31 In-depth analysis
After a day's journey, everyone found a place to spend the night, and tonight everyone did not cultivate, but sat by the fire and waited for the great event that Putian Ge said to happen.
The light of the fire seemed incomparably small in the dark abyss, as if it was gradually being swallowed up, very dim, and everyone's hearts were like this fluctuating fire, constantly undulating and rippling.
Not long after, Putiange heard the ethereal nursery rhyme again, like a dream, very unreal, constantly echoing in this heaven and earth.
Just like last night, tears slid down Putiange's cheeks, shrouded in endless desolation and pain, and he felt his heart dripping blood.
Strangely, the song sounds heavenly and pleasant, cheerful and moving, very ethereal, but the listener can feel a strong sadness coming over him, and people can't help but cry.
Gradually, the song faded away into the endless night sky.
With the disappearance of the singing, Putiange came to his senses, he felt the seriousness of the situation, and the singing appeared again this night, I am afraid that this matter will not pass easily, and there may be danger.
"Did you hear that?" Pu Tiange wiped the tears from his face, and then said solemnly to Yu Qing and the others.
"What do you hear?" someone asked, confused, a little stunned.
"It seems you didn't hear it. Pu Tiange smiled bitterly, everyone still didn't hear the song tonight, which completely overturned his guess, I'm afraid there is another mystery in it.
Even if everyone didn't cultivate, he was still the only one who heard the singing, which meant that whether or not he could hear the singing had nothing to do with cultivation, and only he alone could hear it.
"What did you hear? Did you hear something just now?" Yu Shixin frowned, he felt that Pu Tiange's words were a little strange, which made him very puzzled.
"Alas, Tiange, why are you crying?" As Yu Fengqi said this, everyone found that Pu Tiange's face was very moist with tears.
Pu Tiange's deep gaze looked at the night sky, as if he was pondering something, he knew that he should tell Yu Qing and the others about it now, otherwise it would not be a way to hide it like this.
"Here's the thing, last night's ...................................." Pu Tiange slowly explained what happened, without any omission, very carefully.
After hearing this, everyone was shocked and felt a little incredible, could it be that it was haunted? It was so strange that even if they didn't hear it with their own ears, they felt very frightened.
"Why didn't you say such an important thing earlier? Is it necessary to hide it from us?" Yu Qing said with some complaints, he was a little dissatisfied with Pu Tiange.
"Really, if you don't say it, we're still in the dark. Yu Jie also complained.
"It's not that I don't want to say it, but I'm afraid you're worried. Pu Tiange didn't want to explain more, and casually said to everyone, the most important thing now is how to solve the crisis in front of him.
When everyone heard this, they stopped pursuing it, after all, the situation here is extremely dangerous, and it is not the time to care.
"Well, we'll talk about it tomorrow. Pu Tiange's eyes swept towards everyone and said meaningfully.
Although they didn't know what Pu Tiange meant, Yuqing and the others didn't say much. They still trust Putiange very much, so they have no objections.
There was no word for a night, and in the early hours of the morning, everyone set off again and continued to march to the depths of the Onizawa Forest. Yu Qing and the others were all reminiscing about what Pu Tiange said last night, and they were all a little worried.
"What do you think about this strange thing?" asked Pu Tiange to everyone, his expression was very heavy, and there was a hint of worry between his eyebrows.
"What do you think?" someone asked rhetorically.
"That's what I think, if you want to uncover the truth of this matter, you have to analyze it from this nursery rhyme. ”
"The sun falls on Qishan, and the clouds are rising. ”
"Ascend the wanderer, walk in the forest, and collect the soul stamen. ”
"The mourners, next to Li Creek, drink the water of the underworld. ”
"On the other side of the north stream, the two are separated. ”
"Frightened birds, wailing and singing, the bones of the deceased are cold. ”
"Heaven and earth are far away, the tears of living souls, and the seclusion has become ancient. ”
"Walk through the dust, and see no one ...................................."
Putian Song sang this nursery rhyme, the rhythm is long, ethereal and ethereal, completely restoring the essence of this song, so that everyone is fascinated by listening to it, and feels relaxed and happy.
"It's a really extraordinary song, with a transcendent touch. Yu Qing exclaimed as he walked forward.
And this lyric is also full of deep meaning, such as falling on this day Qi Mountain, in which Qi Mountain means a barren mountain with no people, a place where people are rare. Yu Fengqi groaned.
"Deng Youzi refers to tourists, visitors from other places, and I don't know what the conjuring spirit is. Yu Shixin shook his head, his brows furrowed.
"Haven't heard of the Conjuring. Yu Qing was a little confused, and he didn't know what the Conjuring Soul Rui was.
"Legend has it that in the distant Netherlands, there is a Netherflower that grows, and the stamen of this flower has the effect of conjuring spirits, so presumably the Spirit-Summoning Stamen may refer to the stamen of the Netherflower flower. Putiange slowly spoke, solving everyone's doubts.
So the meaning of the whole sentence is that a visitor walked in the forest of the Netherworld and picked the stamens that had the effect of conjuring spirits. Pu Tiange continued, his tone calm and slow.
At this moment, everyone had to admire Putiange's well-informed, and even such a remote rumor could be known, which was really beyond their reach.
"And what is the undertaker?" asked Yu Jie curiously, blinking her big smart eyes.
"In the ancient Ten Kingdoms of the Northern Regions, there was a tradition dedicated to the burial of the deceased to their homeland, called the Undertaker. ”
"It's a mysterious, long-standing tradition that has lasted for an unknown number of eras, and has existed for a long time. Putiange explained, speaking slowly so that everyone could fully understand.
"And what is Li Xi?"
"Li Xi refers to the river that flows out of the underworld, crosses the two worlds, and comes from the underworld to the earthly world. Pu Tiange's eyes were deep, and he said to everyone in a deep voice.
"Does that relict water mean the water that flows out of the underworld?" asked Yu Jie.
"That's right, but the water of the underworld will only exist in the place where the underworld is separated from the earthly world, and it will not be far from the underworld, nor will it be far from the underworld. Pu Tiange's tone was heavy, as if he was thinking about something.
"So what does this mean, a mourner drank water from the underworld on the edge of the earth?" Yu Qing was a little strange, still not quite understanding the meaning of this sentence.
"If a mourner appears somewhere between the earthly and the underworld, then it means that he is receiving something, it may be the remains of the deceased, or it may be the soul of the deceased. "Putian Song is quiet.
"And what exactly does he want to induce?"
"I don't know. Pu Tiange shook his head, he didn't know what it was.
For a while, everyone was very confused, these words and phrases have their own meanings, and they can't be connected at all, and it is difficult to know what this nursery rhyme wants to express.
"On the other side of the North Stream, the two are separated, and what is the North Stream?" someone asked.
"This.................. Maybe it's a place name. Putiange hadn't heard of Beijian, so he didn't know very well, but on the surface, it should be a place name.
Everyone pondered for a moment and didn't figure it out, no one knew where Beijian was, so they could only give up and continue to analyze the meaning of this nursery rhyme.
"Legend has it that the bird is a big bird that represents good luck and good fortune, which can bring tranquility and vitality, and whenever it appears, it means the arrival of a prosperous age. Yu Jie said, her voice pleasant.
But when the bird is wailing, it means that bad luck and darkness are coming, which means that when the calamity comes, there will be terrible things happening, and there will be terrible variables. Pu Tiange continued Yu Jie's words, and his tone was low.
In this world, many people hope that the bird can appear, but no one wants it to cry, otherwise it will not bring peace and tranquility, but a nightmare disaster.
"The cold bones of the deceased are easy to understand, which means that the deceased has been dead for a long time. Yu Qing said.
"Heaven and earth are far away, which means that they are as far away as heaven and earth, and are generally used for the meaning that the distance between the two places is very far. Putiange continued to analyze this nursery rhyme.
"Couldn't the two of them be described as heaven and earth?" Yu Jie said slowly.
"No, heaven and earth are endless, and two people cannot compare with heaven and earth. Pu Tiange shook his head.
"As for the tears of the souls, it refers to a vision of heaven and earth, where all things weep and all beings are sad, and only when the great merit falls, this supreme vision of heaven and earth will appear. Pu Tiange said slowly, his tone heavy.
"And the secluded and the bones of the deceased are the same meaning, both refer to the years that have been dead for too long. Pu Tiange continued, and he was already faintly able to perceive the meaning of this nursery rhyme.
"Walking all the mortals and not seeing people, it should mean that there is no such person in the whole world. ”
Now, the context of this nursery rhyme has gradually become clear. Yu Qing's eyes were far-reaching, and he pondered.
As they walked forward, they pondered, meditating, connecting the meanings of each phrase, trying to sort out the meaning of the nursery rhyme.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a bold guess. Pu Tiange suddenly stopped his pace and said solemnly to everyone.
"What speculation?"
"I think this nursery rhyme is to pay tribute to a deceased person who has made great merits, who should have done some great deeds in his life, with immeasurable merits, worshiped by all souls, and fought hard for all sentient beings. ”
"That's why after death, it will cause a vision of heaven and earth, and some living beings will weep, and the birds will mourn for him. ”
"There are those who are willing to collect the soul for him, who want to return the soul for him, and there are those who are willing to cross the underworld to lead his remains. ”
This man has passed away for a long time, but there are still people who remember him, which shows how great his achievements are. ”
Putian Ge sighed a little, this is a great man, his merits are immeasurable, all spirits throb for him, even if he falls, it can change the color of heaven and earth, and it will be passed down through the ages.
Perhaps in those days, the children of every tribe sang this nursery rhyme in honor of the great meritorious, whose deeds were remembered by future generations, and even children knew of his existence.
But he clearly remembers that the nursery rhyme sounded pleasant and cheerful, but it revealed a bleak and sad mood, which made people cry sadly, as if the heavens and the earth were crying.
What the truth is, I don't know, but it must be tragic, otherwise there would not be such a palpitating grief for all beings, and that feeling is like losing the most important thing in the world, and the heart is so sad that it can't be done.
"Is your guess accurate?" someone wondered, the guess too bold to accept.
This is the only reasonable guess, otherwise it would not be possible to explain the meaning of this nursery rhyme. Pu Tiange turned his head and said to everyone, his tone was very firm and unquestionable.
"Unfortunately, it's useless, even if your guess is correct, but what can we do?"
"It's not useless, and we don't have a solution. Yu Qing sighed, no matter what he thought, there was no good way to solve this matter.
"There seems to be some truth to what you said. Pu Tiange touched his nose, a little helpless.
"We can only pray for our safety now, otherwise we really don't know what will happen next. Yu Shixin was a little annoyed, upset by this strange thing.
Now, even if everyone has figured it out, they have not been able to find a way to deal with it.
